حديث أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخدْرِيِّ رضي الله عنها، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ يَتَرَاءَيُونَ أَهْلَ الْغُرَفِ مِنْ فَوْقِهِم كَمَا يَتَرَاءَيُونَ الْكَوْكَبَ الدُّرِّيَّ الْغَابِرَ فِي الأُفُقِ مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ أَوِ الْمَغْرِبِ، لِتَفَاضُلِ مَا بَيْنَهُمْ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ تِلْكَ مَنَازِلُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ، لَا يَبْلُغُهَا غَيْرُهُمْ قَالَ: بَلَى، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ رِجَالٌ آَمَنوا بِاللهِ، وَصَدَّقُوا الْمُرْسَلِينَ.
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri Narrated from:
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “The people of Paradise will look at the dwellers of Al-Guraf (the lofty mansions, a superior place in Paradise) in the same way as one looks at a brilliant star far away in the east or in the west on the horizon; all that is because of their superiority over one another (in rewards).”On that the people said, “O Allâh’s Messenger! Are these lofty mansions for the Prophets which nobody else can reach?” The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم replied, “No! By Allâh in Whose Hands my life is, these are for the men who believed in Allâh and also believed in the Messengers.” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadith No.478, Vol. 4)
