حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ حَدَّثَنَا دُوَيْدٌ عَنْ سَلْمِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْتَقَى مُؤْمِنَانِ عَلَى بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ مُؤْمِنٌ غَنِيٌّ وَمُؤْمِنٌ فَقِيرٌ كَانَا فِي الدُّنْيَا فَأُدْخِلَ الْفَقِيرُ الْجَنَّةَ وَحُبِسَ الْغَنِيُّ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُحْبَسَ ثُمَّ أُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَلَقِيَهُ الْفَقِيرُ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ أَخِي مَاذَا حَبَسَكَ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ احْتُبِسْتَ حَتَّى خِفْتُ عَلَيْكَ فَيَقُولُ أَيْ أَخِي إِنِّي حُبِسْتُ بَعْدَكَ مَحْبِسًا فَظِيعًا كَرِيهًا وَمَا وَصَلْتُ إِلَيْكَ حَتَّى سَالَ مِنِّي الْعَرَقُ مَا لَوْ وَرَدَهُ أَلْفُ بَعِيرٍ كُلُّهَا آكِلَةُ حَمْضٍ لَصَدَرَتْ عَنْهُ رِوَاءً
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2771
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: The Prophet (PBUH)said: "Two believers met at the gate of Paradise, a rich believer and a poor believer, who had been in this world. The poor man was admitted to Paradise and the rich man was detained for as long as Allah willed, then he was admitted to Paradise, where he met the poor man who said: O my brother, what kept you? By Allah, you were detained so long that I feared for you. He said: O my brother, I was detained after you (moved on) in a terrible, harsh way, and I could not reach you until I sweated so much that if a thousand camels who had all eaten a bitter plant drank it, they would be able to quench their thirst from that sweat.
