The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do you know who will be the first of Allah's creation to enter Paradise?"They replied, "Allah and His Messenger know best."He said, "The first of Allah's creation to enter Paradise will be the poor emigrants, through whom the frontiers are defended and through whom calamities are warded off. One of them dies with his need still in his heart, unable to fulfill it. Then Allah will say to whichever of His angels He wills, 'Go to them and greet them.'The angels will say, 'We are the dwellers of Your heavens, the choicest of Your creation. Do You command us to go to these people and offer them greetings of peace?'He will say, 'They were servants who worshipped Me, associating nothing with Me, and through them the frontiers were defended and calamities were warded off. One of them would die with his need still in his heart, unable to fulfill it.'"He said, "So the angels will come to them at that moment, entering upon them from every gate, saying, 'Peace be upon you for what you patiently endured. How excellent is the final home!' [Rad 13:24]."
عن رسول الله ﷺ أنه قال: هل تدرون أول من يدخل الجنة من خلق الله؟ قالوا: الله ورسوله أعلم. قال: أول من يدخل الجنة من خلق الله الفقراء المهاجرون، الذين تسد بهم الثغور، ويتقى بهم المكاره، ويموت أحدهم وحاجته في صدره، لا يستطيع لها قضاء فيقول الله عز وجل لمن يشاء من ملائكته: ائتوهم فحيوهم، فتقول الملائكة: نحن سكان سمائك، وخيرتك من خلقك، أفتأمرنا أن نأتي هؤلاء فنسلم عليهم؟ قال: إنهم كانوا عبادا ليعبدوني، لا يشركون بي شيئا، وتسد بهم الثغور، ويتقى بهم المكاره، ويموت أحدهم، وحاجته في صدره، لا يستطيع لها قضاء قال: فتأتيهم الملائكة عند ذلك، فيدخلون عليهم من كل باب: {سلام عليكم بما صبرتم فنعم عقبى الدار} [الرعد: ٢٤].
Ahmad narrated it (6571, 6570), and Bazzar (2457), and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (7421), and Hakim (2/71–72), all of them through routes from Abu Ushana Maafiri, Hayy bin Yumun, from Abdullah bin Amr, who said, and then he related it. Its chain of transmission is sahih. Hakim said, "Sahih chain of transmission."
