عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «حُفَّتِ الْجَنَّةُ بِالْمَكَارِهِ، وَحُفَّتِ النَّارُ بِالشَّهَوَاتِ».
وفي رواية: عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «حُجِبَتِ النَّارُ بِالشَّهَوَاتِ، وَحُجِبَتِ الجَنَّةُ بِالْمَكَارِهِ»
Anas ibn Mālik narrated that God’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said:
1. Paradise is surrounded by displeasures
2. and the Fire is surrounded by tempting pleasures.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) mentions that God has surrounded Heaven with duties and similar things which a human being normally dislikes. He has surrounded Hell with pleasures and temptations that a human being loves to have. All this adds to man’s trial on earth.
