Muwatta Malik, 487

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ubaydullah ibn Abd ar-Rahman that Ubayd ibn Hunayn, the mawla of the family of Zayd ibn al Khattab, said that he had heard Abu Hurayra say, "I was going along with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, when he heard a man reciting Surat al-Ikhlas (Sura 112). The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'It is obligatory,' and I asked him, 'What is, Messenger of Allah?' and he said, 'The Garden.' I wanted to tell the man the good news but I was afraid that I would miss the midday meal with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and I preferred to eat with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. When I went to the man afterwards I found that he had gone

Abou Houraira a rapporté: «Venant avec l'Envoyé d'Allah (salallahou alayhi wa salam) r (Sur lui la grâce et la paix d'Allah) Il entendit un homme qui récitait sourate «al-Ikhlas», il dit: «il lui est assuré». Je lui demandai: «qu'est-ce qui lui est assuré, Ô Envoyé d'Allah»? Il répondit: «le Paradis». Et Abou Houraira ajouta: «Je voulus aller, annoncer la bonne nouvelle, à cet homme, mais je craignis manquer le déjeuner avec l'Envoyé d'Allah (salallahou alayhi wa salam) r (Sur lui la grâce et la paix d'Allah); ainsi je me décidai d'avoir, d'abord, le déjeuner avec l'Envoyé d'Allah (salallahou alayhi wa salam), puis de me rendre chez l'homme, mais il était déjà parti»
