Question
What is the interpretation of the narration of the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, in which he said: "If a man were to be drugged on his face from the day he was born until he dies as an old man whilst in the obedience of Allaah, he will still belittle this on the Day of Judgement"?
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
The above narration was reported by Ahmad
in his Musnad, and by Al-Bukhari in his book entitled 'History', and by At-Tabaraani in his book Al-Kabeer; and it is narrated by 'Utbah Ibn 'Abd As-Sulami 
. Moreover, As-Suyooti and Al-Albaani
classified it as authentic.
An-Nawawi said regarding the interpretation of this narration: 'This is when he sees with his own eyes the great and marvellous reward that he obtains from Allaah.'
