Muhammad ibn Hatim ibn Maymun narrated to me, Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi narrated to us, Mu'awiyah ibn Salih narrated to us, from Rabi'ah — meaning ibn Yazid — from Abu Idris al-Khawlani, from Uqbah ibn Amir, with the chain (H).

And Abu Uthman narrated to me, from Jubayr ibn Nufayr, from Uqbah ibn Amir, who said: We were tasked with tending the camels, and when my turn came, I brought them back in the evening and caught the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, standing and addressing the people. I caught from his words: "There is no Muslim who performs ablution and does it well, then stands and prays two rak'ahs, devoting his heart and face to them, except that Paradise becomes obligatory for him." He said: So I said, "How excellent this is!" Then a speaker before me said, "What precedes it is more excellent." I looked and saw that it was Umar. He said, "I saw you come just now. He said: 'There is none among you who performs ablution and perfects — or completes — the ablution, then says: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and that Muhammad is the servant of Allah and His Messenger, except that the eight gates of Paradise are opened for him, and he enters through whichever of them he wishes.'"
