عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ، فَقَالَ: مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ: «وَمَاذَا أَعْدَدْتَ لَهَا». قَالَ: لاَ شَيْءَ، إِلَّا أَنِّي أُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ». قَالَ أَنَسٌ: فَمَا فَرِحْنَا بِشَيْءٍ، فَرِحْنَا بِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَنْتَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ» قَالَ أَنَسٌ: فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرَ، وَأَرْجُو أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَهُمْ بِحُبِّي إِيَّاهُمْ، وَإِنْ لَمْ أَعْمَلْ بِمِثْلِ أَعْمَالِهِمْ.
Imepokelewa kutoka kwa Anas -radhi za Mwenyezi Mungu ziwe ju yake-: Yakuwa mtu mmoja alimuuliza Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake kuhusu Kiyama, akasema: Lini Kiyama? Akasema: “Umetayarisha nini kwa ajili yake?” Akasema: Hapana, isipokuwa ninampenda Mwenyezi Mungu na Mtume wake rehema na amani ziwe juu yake. Akasema: “Wewe uko pamoja na unayempenda.” Anas akasema: Hakuna lililotufurahisha zaidi ya kauli ya Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake: “Wewe uko pamoja na unayempenda.” Anas akasema: Mimi ninampenda Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake na Abubakari na Omari, na ninataraji kuwa pamoja nao kutokana na mapenzi yangu kwao, hata kama nisipofanya sawa na matendo yao.
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): "When is the Hour?" He said: "What have you prepared for it?" He said: "Nothing, except that I love Allah and His Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)." He said: "You will be with whom you love." Anas said: We did not feel more joyful than we did due to the Prophet's statement: "You will be with whom you love." Anas said: I love the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and Abu Bakr and ‘Umar, and I hope I will be with them by virtue of my love for them, even if I did not perform deeds like their deeds.
Hekima ya Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake katika kumjibu muulizaji, kwani alimuongoza katika yale yanayomhusu na kumuokoa, nayo ni: kujiandaa na Akhera kwa yenye manufaa na matendo mema.
Mwenyezi Mungu ameficha kwa waja wake elimu ya kujua Kiyama, ili mtu aendelee kuwa tayari na kujiandaa kukutana na Mwenyezi Mungu.
Fadhila za kumpenda Mwenyezi Mungu na Mtume wake, na watu wema miongoni mwa waumini, na onyo la kuwapenda washirikina.
Kauli yake rehema na amani ziwe juu yake: Wewe utakuwa pamoja na umpendaye. Kinachokusudiwa sio usawa wa daraja na hadhi, bali ni kuwa, wao watakuwa Peponi kiasi kwamba kila mmoja wao ataweza kumuona mwenzake, hata kama sehemu hiyo iko mbali.
Kumuelekeza Muislamu kuzingatia yale yaliyo bora na yenye manufaa kwake, na kuacha kuuliza juu ya yale ambayo hayamnufaishi.
