It is narrated from Hazrat Suhaib (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: "For those who have done good is the best reward and 'something more'." He said: When the people of Paradise will enter Paradise, it will be proclaimed to them: O people of Paradise! There remains a promise of Allah to you which you have not yet seen. The people of Paradise will say: What is that? Has He not brightened our faces and admitted us into Paradise, saving us from Hell? In response, the veil will be lifted and the people of Paradise will be able to see their Lord. By Allah! Of all the blessings Allah has bestowed upon them, none will be more beloved to them than this blessing.

It is narrated from Zaid bin Aslam, may Allah have mercy on him, that once Sayyiduna Farooq-e-Azam, may Allah be pleased with him, said to Hazrat Suhaib, may Allah be pleased with him: "If you did not have three things, there would be no fault in you." He asked, "What are they? For we have never seen you finding fault in anything." He replied, "First, you keep your kunyah as Abu Yahya, even though you have no children. Second, you attribute yourself to Namar bin Qasit, while you have a stammer in your speech. And third, you do not possess wealth." Hazrat Suhaib, may Allah be pleased with him, said, "As for my kunyah Abu Yahya, the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, gave it to me, so I can never abandon it until I meet him. As for my attribution to Namar bin Qasit, that is correct because I am indeed one of them, but since I was nursed in 'Aylah', this stammer developed. And as for wealth, have you ever seen me spend it in a place that is unjust?"
