"Perhaps those who disbelieved will wish that they had been Muslims."
Yahya: From Uthman, from Hammad, from Ibrahim, from Alqama, from Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, who said:
The people of the Fire will say to those who enter it among the people of Tawhid (monotheism): "These used to be Muslims, so what did that avail them?!" He said: Then their Lord becomes angry on their behalf and admits them into Paradise; at that moment, those who disbelieved will wish that they had been Muslims.
﴿رُبَمَا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ كَانُوا مُسلمين﴾.
يحيى: عَنْ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ حَمَّادٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ:
يَقُولُ أَهْلُ النَّارِ لِمَنْ دَخَلَهَا مِنْ أَهْلِ التَّوْحِيدِ: قَدْ كَانَ هَؤُلاءِ مُسْلِمِينَ، فَمَا أَغْنَى عَنْهُمْ؟! قَالَ: فَيَغْضَبُ لَهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ فَيُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ، فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ كَانُوا مُسْلِمِينَ.
