Some angels came to see Prophet S.A.W while he’s asleep.
Some of them said “He’s sleeping”
Some said “His eyes is sleeping but his heart is awake”
So the angel went on saying “There is an example of this companion of yours”
“His example is that of a man who has built a house then offered therein a banquet and sent an inviter to invite the people. Those who accepted the invitation of the inviter entered the house and ate the banquet, those who did not, did not enter the house nor did they eat the banquet”
Then the angles translate it to make Prophet understand better.
“The house stands for Paradise and the Call Maker is Muhammad S.A.W and whoever obeys Muhammad S.A.W obeys Allah S.W.T and whoever disobey Muhammad S.A.W disobey Allah S.W.T. Muhammad S.A.W separated the people”
Narrated by Jabir Bin Abdullah, Sahih Al Bukhari 9/7281
I just thought the way it is presented is just great metaphor.
