حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ح و حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ وَإِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ ابْنِ فُضَيْلٍ جَمِيعًا عَنْ الْمُخْتَارِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَلَيْسَ فِي حَدِيثِ جَرِيرٍ وَلَا بِالِانْصِرَافِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 962
Anas reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) one day led us in the prayer. and when he completed the Prayer he turned his face towards us and said: 0 People, I am your Imam, so do not precede me in bowing and prostration and in standing and turning (faces, i. e. In pronouncing salutation), for I see you in front of me and behind me, and then said: By Him in Whose hand Is the life of Muhammad, if you could see what I see, you would have laughed little and wept much more. They said: What did you see, Messenger of Allah? He replied: (I saw) Paradise and Hell.
