The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When Allah created Paradise and Hell, He sent Jibreel to Paradise and said, 'Look at it and at what I have prepared in it for its people.'So he came to it and looked at it and at what Allah had prepared in it for its people. Then he returned and said, 'By Your might, no one will hear of it without entering it.'Then He commanded that it be surrounded with hardships, and said, 'Return to it and look at what I have prepared in it for its people.'He returned to it, and there it was, surrounded with hardships. He went back and said, 'By Your might, I fear that no one will enter it.'Allah said, 'Go to Hell and look at it and at what I have prepared in it for its people.'There it was, parts of it riding upon other parts. He returned and said, 'By Your might, no one will hear of it and then enter it.'Then He commanded that it be surrounded with desires, and said, 'Return to it.'He returned to it and said, 'By Your might, I fear that no one will escape it, but all will enter it.'"
عن رسول الله ﷺ قال: لما خلق الله الجنة والنار أرسل جبريل إلى الجنة، فقال: انظر إليها، وإلى ما أعددت لأهلها فيها قال: فجاءها، ونظر إليها وإلى ما أعد الله لأهلها فيها، قال: فرجع إليه قال: فوعزتك لا يسمع بها أحد إلا دخلها، فأمر بها، فحفت بالمكاره، فقال: ارجع إليها فانظر إلى ما أعددت لأهلها فيها قال: ترجع إليها فإذا هي قد حفت بالمكاره فرجع إليه فقال: وعزتك لقد خفت أن لا يدخلها أحد، قال: اذهب إلى النار، فانظر إليها وإلى ما أعددت لأهلها فيها فإذا هي يركب بعضها بعضا فرج إليه فقال: وعزتك لا يسمع بها أحد فيدخلها، فأمر بها فحفت بالشهوات فقال: ارجع إليها، فرجع إليها فقال: وعزتك لقد خشيت أن لا ينجو منها أحد إلا دخلها.
Abu Dawud (4744), Tirmidhi (2560), and Nasai (3763) all narrated it, and Ibn Hibban (7394) graded it sahih, all of them through the route of Muhammad bin Amr bin Alqama Laythi, from Abu Salama, from Abu Hurairah, and he mentioned it.Its chain is hasan because of Muhammad bin Amr, for his hadith is hasan. Tirmidhi said, "This is a hasan sahih hadith."
