Abu Saʿid al-Khudri and Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with them both, report that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said concerning the last two men to leave the Fire: Allah says to one of them, O son of Adam, what have you prepared for this day, did you ever do good, did you ever hope in Me, and he says, no my Lord, so he is ordered to the Fire in utter regret. He says to the other, O son of Adam, what have you prepared for this day, did you ever do good, did you ever hope in Me, and he says, no my Lord, except that I hoped in You. Then a tree is raised for him and he says, O my Lord, settle me beneath this tree to shade in its shade, eat of its fruits and drink of its water, pledging not to ask for other than it, so He settles him beneath it. Then a tree better than the first with more abundant water is raised for him, and he says, O my Lord, settle me beneath it and I shall ask You for nothing else, to shade in its shade, eat of its fruit and drink of its water. Allah says, O son of Adam, did you not pledge not to ask Me for other than it, and he says, my Lord, this one and I shall ask for nothing else, so He settles him beneath it with a pledge. Then a tree at the gate of Paradise, better than the first two with more abundant water, is raised for him, and he says, O my Lord, settle me beneath it to shade in its shade, eat of its fruit and drink of its water, and Allah says, O son of Adam, did you not pledge not to ask Me for other than it, and he says, my Lord, this one and I shall ask for nothing else, so He draws him near beneath it with a pledge not to ask for other than it. Then he hears the voices of the people of Paradise and cannot restrain himself, saying, my Lord, admit me to Paradise. Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, says, ask and wish, so he asks and wishes for the measure of three days of this world, Allah teaching him what he knows not, and when he finishes He says, son of Adam, yours is what you asked. Abu Saʿid said, and the like thereof with it, and Abu Hurayrah said, and ten times the like thereof with it, and each told the other to narrate what he heard. > **"Ask and wish, so he asks and wishes, and his Lord says, yours is what you asked and the like thereof with it."**
