Mu'adh b. Jabal told of God’s messenger saying that if they wished he would tell them the first thing God would say to the believers on the day of resurrection and the first thing they would say to Him. When his hearers expressed a desire to be told, he said that God would say to the believers,“Did you wish to meet me?”and that they would reply,“Yes, our Lord.”He would ask them why, and they would reply that it was because they hoped for His forgiveness and pardon. He would then say,“My forgiveness has become necessary for you.” [Baghawl] transmitted it in Sharh as-sunna and Abu Nu'aim in al-Hilya.
