Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ ثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مِصْرَ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ مَا تَقُولُ فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ { لَهُمْ الْبُشْرَى فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ } قَالَ لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ مَا سَمِعْتُ أَحَدًا سَأَلَ عَنْهُ بَعْدَ رَجُلٍ سَأَلَ عَنْهُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ بُشْرَاهُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ يَرَاهَا الْمُسْلِمُ أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ وَبُشْرَاهُمْ فِي الْآخِرَةِ الْجَنَّةُ.
English Translation
Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, al-A'mash narrated to us, from Abu Salih, from Ata' ibn Yasar, from a man from the people of Egypt, from Abu al-Darda'. A man came to him and said: "What do you say about the saying of Allah: 'For them are glad tidings in the life of this world and in the Hereafter'?" He said: "You have asked about something that I have not heard anyone ask about after a man who asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about it. He said: 'Their glad tidings in the life of this world is the righteous dream that a Muslim sees or that is seen for him, and their glad tidings in the Hereafter is Paradise.'"
