Salama....
This is an authentic hadith from Al-Buqari, It mesmerised me, and I therefore want to share with my fellow kinsfolk. Some of you had, perhaps, read it. But still unfold yourselves to have it!
Behold! Here it is:
.....Then Allah will finish the judgements among the people, and there will remain one man facing the (Hell) Fire and he will be the last person among the people of Hell to enter Paradise.
He will say, "O my Lord! Please turn my face away from the fire because its air has hurt me and its severe heat has burnt me."
So he will invoke Allah in the way Allah will wish him to invoke, and then Allah will say to him:
"If I grant you that, will you then ask for anything else?"
He will reply, "No, by Your Power, (Honour) I will not ask You for anything else."
He will give his Lord whatever promises and covenants Allah will demand.
So Allah {s.w.) will turn his face away from Hell (Fire). When he will face Paradise and will see it, he will remain quiet for as long as Allah will wish him to remain quiet, then he will say:
"O my Lord! Bring me near to the gate of Paradise."
Allah will say to him:
"Didn't you give your promises and covenants that you would never ask for anything more than what you had been given? Woe on you, O Adam's son! How treacherous you are!"
He will say, "O my lord," and will keep on invoking Allah till Allah says to him:
"If I give what you are asking, will you then ask for anything else?"
He will reply, "No, by Your Power (Honour), I will not ask for anything else."
Then he will give covenants and promises to Allah and then Allah will bring him near to the gate of Paradise. When he stands at the gate of Paradise, Paradise will be opened and spread before him, and he will see its splendour and pleasures whereupon he will remain quiet as long as Allah will wish him to remain quiet, and then he will say:
"O my Lord! Admit me into Paradise."
Allah will say, "Didn't you give your covenants and promises that you would not ask for anything more than what you had been given?" Allah will say, "Woe on you, O Adam's son! How treacherous you are!"
The man will say, "O my Lord! Do not make me the most miserable of Your creation," and he will keep on invoking Allah till Allah will LAUGH because of his sayings, and when Allah will LAUGH because of him, He will say to him:
"Enter Paradise."
And when he will enter it, Allah will say to him, "Wish for anything."
So he will ask his Lord, and he will wish for a great number of things, for Allah Himself will remind him to wish for certain things by saying, "(Wish for) so-and-so." When there is nothing more to wish for, Allah will say:
"This is for you, and its equal (is for you) as well."
