It was narrated from Talha h Bin Ubaidullah that two men from Bali came to the Messenger of Allah. They had become Muslim together; but one of them used to strive harder than the other. The one who used to strive harder went out to fight and was martyred. The other one stayed for a year longer; then he passed away. Talha h said: I saw in a dream that I was at the gate of Paradise and I saw them those two men. Someone came out of Paradise and admitted the one who had died last; then he came out and admitted the one who had been martyred. Then he came back to me and said: Go back; for your time has not yet come. The next morning; Talha h told the people of that and they were amazed. News of that reached the Messenger of Allah and they told him the story. He said: Why are you so amazed at that? They said: O Messenger of Allah; the first one was the one who strove harder; then he was martyred; but the other one was admitted to Paradise before him. The Messenger of Allah said: Did he not stay behind for a year? They said: Yes. He said: And did not Ramadan come and he fasted; and he offered such and such prayers during that year? They said: Yes. The Messenger of Allah said: The difference between them is greater than the difference between heaven and earth.
