Hadith 5980
Once I stayed overnight at the house of Maimuna and the Prophet (ﷺ) was there with her. When it was the
last third of the night, or some part of the night, the Prophet (ﷺ) got up looking towards the sky and
recited: 'Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of Night and Day,
there are indeed signs for men of u understanding.' (3.190)

entering Paradise." Behold! It was `Umar. So I opened the gate for him and gave him the glad tidings

him the glad tidings of entering Paradise with a calamity which will befall him or which will take
place." I went, and behold ! It was `Uthman. So I opened the gate for him and gave him the glad
tidings of entering Paradise and also informed him of what the Prophet (ﷺ) had said (about a calamity).
