Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ وَغَيْرِ وَاحِدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رِيحَ الْجَنَّةِ يُوجَدُ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ مِائَةِ عَامٍ وَمَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَقْتُلُ نَفْسًا مُعَاهَدَةً إِلَّا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةَ وَرَائِحَتَهَا أَنْ يَجِدَهَا قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرَةَ أَصَمَّ اللَّهُ أُذُنِي إِنْ لَمْ أَكُنْ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُهَا.
English Translation
Abd al-Razzaq told us, Ma'mar informed us, from Qatadah and more than one other, from al-Hasan, from Abu Bakrah, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "The fragrance of Paradise can be found from a distance of a hundred years' journey, and no servant kills a person under covenant except that Allah, Blessed and Exalted, forbids him Paradise and its fragrance, that he should ever find it." Abu Bakrah said: "May Allah make me deaf if I did not hear the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say it."
