Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ أُقَيْشٍ فَحَدَّثَنَا الْحَارِثُ، لَيْلَتَئِذٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي مَنْ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ بِشَفَاعَتِهِ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ مُضَرَ وَإِنَّ مِنْ أُمَّتِي مَنْ يَعْظُمُ لِلنَّارِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ أَحَدَ زَوَايَاهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us: Abd al-Rahim ibn Sulayman narrated to us, from Dawud ibn Abi Hind, who said: Abdullah ibn Qays told us: One night I was with Abu Burdah, and al-Harith ibn Uqaysh came to us. That night al-Harith told us that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Among my community are those through whose intercession more than the number of Mudar will enter Paradise. And among my community are those who will be made immense for the Fire until they become one of its corners.
