وَعَنْ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِنَّ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ لَأُنَاسًا مَا هُمْ بِأَنْبِيَاءٍ وَلَا شُهَدَاءَ يَغْبِطُهُمُ الأنبياءُ والشهداءُ يومَ القيامةِ بِمَكَانِهِمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ» . قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ تُخْبِرُنَا مَنْ هُمْ؟ قَالَ: «هُمْ قَوْمٌ تَحَابُّوا بِرُوحِ اللَّهِ عَلَى غَيْرِ أَرْحَامٍ بَيْنَهُمْ وَلَا أَمْوَالٍ يَتَعَاطَوْنَهَا فَوَاللَّهِ إِنَّ وُجُوهَهُمْ لَنُورٌ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَعَلَى نُورٍ لَا يَخَافُونَ إِذَا خَافَ النَّاسُ وَلَا يَحْزَنُونَ إِذَا حَزَنَ النَّاسُ» وَقَرَأَ الْآيَةَ: (أَلَا إِنَّ أَوْلِيَاءَ اللَّهِ لَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُم يحزنونَ) رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
'Umar Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger said, "Surely, there are among the slaves of Allah such as are not prophets or martyrs yet their rank with Allah will be what the Prophets and martyrs will cherish on the day of resurrection." They (the sahabah) رضي الله عنهم asked, 'O Messenger of Allah, do tell us who they are?'He said, "They are a people who love each other because of the spirit of Allah (meaning, the Quran) without being related or possessing property (or exchanging it mutually) so, by Allah! their faces will be light (or their bodies will be light) and they will be standing on light (or, on pulpits of light or on light itself). They will not fear when others are fearful and will not grieve when others grieve."Then he recited this verse (to substantiate his statement): {Behold, verily on the friends of Allah there is no fear, nor shall they grieve} [1] (10: 62)
