Hazrat Nafi’ bin Harith (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered one of the gardens of Madinah and said to me:“Close the door for me.”Then he (peace be upon him) came and sat on the edge built around the well and let his legs hang into the well. Then the door was knocked, so I asked:“Who is it?”He said:“Abu Bakr.”I said:“O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon you)! It is Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him).”So he (peace be upon him) said:“Let him in and give him glad tidings of Paradise.”So he came and sat on the edge of the well with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), and he (may Allah be pleased with him) also let his legs hang into the well. Then the door was knocked. I asked:“Who is it?”He said:“Umar (may Allah be pleased with him).”I said:“O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon you)! It is Umar (may Allah be pleased with him).”So he (peace be upon him) said:“Let him in and give him glad tidings of Paradise.”The narrator says: I gave him permission to enter and gave him the glad tidings of Paradise. So he came and sat on the edge of the well with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), and he (may Allah be pleased with him) also let his legs hang into the well. Then the door was knocked. I asked:“Who is it?”He said:“Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him).”I said:“O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon you)! It is Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him).”He (peace be upon him) said:“Let him in and give him glad tidings of Paradise—with a trial.”The narrator says: I gave him permission to enter and gave him the glad tidings of Paradise. So he entered and sat on the edge of the well with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), and let his legs hang into the well.
