309 - al-Ḥasan b. Kathīr al-ʿAnbarī narrated to us: al-ʿAlāʾ b. ʿUbayd Allāh narrated to us, from Mūsā b. Ḥuṣayn, from ʿĪsā b. Yūnus, from al-Awzaʿī, from Ḥassān b. ʿAṭiyya, from Ibn Masʿūd, who said: "Indeed, in Paradise there is a maiden (ḥawrāʾ) called al-Luʿba. All the maidens of the gardens marvel at her; they pat her on the shoulder with their hands and say: 'Glad tidings to you, O Luʿba. If the seekers knew of you, they would strive earnestly.' Between her eyes is written: 'Whoever desires to have someone like me, let him act for the pleasure of my Lord, Mighty and Majestic.'"
