246 - Al-Faḍl b. Jaʿfar narrated to me: Jaʿfar b. Ḥasan narrated to us: My father narrated to us from al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī, who said: I heard the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, say: "Indeed, in Paradise there is a tree from the top of which emerge garments, and from the bottom of which emerge horses of gold, saddled and bridled with rubies. They do not drop dung nor do they urinate. They have wings, and their stride is as far as their sight reaches. The people of Paradise will ride them, and they will fly with them wherever they wish. Those who are lower than them in rank will say: 'O Lord, what has caused Your servants to reach this honor?' It will be said to them: 'They used to pray while you slept, they used to fast while you ate, they used to spend in charity while you were stingy, and they used to fight while you were cowardly.'"
