  • Resumen
    • This article studies the ḥadīth qudsī, 'God said: I have prepared for my pious servants that which no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no human heart has conceived (aʿdadtu li-ʿibādī al-ṣāliḥīn mā lā ʿaynun raʾat wa-lā udhununsamiʿat wa-lā khaṭara ʿalā qalbi bashar)' (Hammām b. Munabbih >Abū Hurayra > the Prophet). After briefly discussing Hammām’s Ṣaḥīfa and the eschatological narratives found in it, I address the late-antique contexts in which the saying is embedded. I then proceed to propose a chronology, based on an isnād-cum-matn analysis, of the various versions in which the sayingcirculated up to ca. 250 AH. The paper concludes by highlighting the promiseof studying the sensory history of early Islam, a history that largely remains to be written
