By Him (Allaah) in Whose Hands my soul is.......

Narrated Abu Sa’id Al Khudri (Radi Allaahu anhu): The Prophet (SalAllaahu alaihe wa sallam) said, “ The people of Paradise will look at the dwellers of Al-Ghuraf (the lofty mansions i.e., a superior place in Paradise) in the same way as one looks at a brilliant star far away in the east or in the west on the horizon; all that is because of their superiority over one another (in rewards).” On that the people said, “O Allaah’s Messenger! Are these residences (lofty mansions) for the Prophets which nobody else can reach?” The Prophet (SalAllaahu alaihe wa sallam) replied, “No! By Him (Allaah) in Whose Hands my soul is, these are for the men who believed in Allaah and also believed in the Messengers.” {Sahih Al Bukhari hadeeth #3256}
