حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الْحَارِثِ الْكَرْمَانِيُّ قَالَ‏:‏ سَمِعْتُ رَجُلاً قَالَ لأَبِي رَجَاءٍ‏:‏ أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلاَمَ، وَأَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْمَعَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ فِي مُسْتَقَرِّ رَحْمَتِهِ، قَالَ‏:‏ وَهَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَحَدٌ ذَلِكَ‏؟‏ قَالَ‏:‏ فَمَا مُسْتَقَرُّ رَحْمَتِهِ‏؟‏ قَالَ‏:‏ الْجَنَّةُ، قَالَ‏:‏ لَمْ تُصِبْ، قَالَ‏:‏ فَمَا مُسْتَقَرُّ رَحْمَتِهِ‏؟‏ قَالَ‏:‏ قُلْتُ‏:‏ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ‏.‏

Abu al-Harith al-Kirmani said: I heard a man say to Abu Raja’: “I greet you, and I ask Allah to bring us together in the abiding place of His mercy.” He asked: “Can anyone do that?” The man asked: “What is the abiding place of His mercy?” Abu Raja’ replied: “The Garden.” He said: “You have not got it right.” The man asked: “Then what is the abiding place of His mercy?” He replied: “The Lord of the worlds.”
