أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ، عَنْ بِشْرِ بْنِ سُحَيْمٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُنَادِيَ أَيَّامَ التَّشْرِيقِ " أَنَّهُ لاَ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ إِلاَّ مُؤْمِنٌ وَهِيَ أَيَّامُ أَكْلٍ وَشُرْبٍ " .

Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 4994
This hadith about the days of Tashriq reports that the Prophet commanded Bishr bin Suhaim to call out two messages. First, no one would enter Paradise except a believer. Second, these were days of eating and drinking. The wording joins belief with a public announcement during the days of Tashriq. It does not give a long explanation, but the message is direct: faith matters, and those days were marked by eating and drinking. For readers searching for Tashriq days hadith, this report is short and clear. It should not be stretched beyond its wording. The safe lesson is to hold both points together just as the narration presents them.
What we learn from this hadith
- The announcement states that Paradise is for the believer.
- The days of Tashriq are described as days of eating and drinking.
- The Prophet commanded the message to be publicly called out.
