وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَقِيتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لَيْلَةَ أُسَرِيَ بِي فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَقْرِئْ أُمَّتَكَ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ وَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ طَيِّبَةُ التُّرْبَةِ عَذْبَةُ الْمَاءِ وَأَنَّهَا قِيعَانٌ وَأَنَّ غِرَاسَهَا سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ". رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ. وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ إِسْنَادًا

Ibn Mas‘ud reported that the Messenger of God (peace be upon him) said: ‘I met Abraham on the night I was taken on the Night Journey. He said, “Muhammad, convey my greetings to your community and tell them that Paradise has good soil and sweet water, that it is level, open ground, and that its plants are: ‘Glory be to God, praise be to God, there is no deity but God, and God is greatest.’”’ Al-Tirmidhi transmitted it and said: ‘This is a hasan gharib hadith in its chain.’ The Arabic source grades it weak (al-Albani).
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic word قيعان describes level, open ground; the prayer phrases are described as its planting.
