Two Things That Lead Most To Either Hellfire Or Paradise

‎عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال : قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم : تقدرون ما أكثر مَا يُدْخلُ النَّارَ ؟ قالوا : الله ُورسُولهُ أَعلمُ . قال : الأجَوفَان : الفَرجُ والفَمُ ، وما أكثر ما يدخل الجنة ؟ تقوى الله وحسن الخلق

From Abū Hurayrah Raḍi-Allāhu ‘Anhu who said: The Prophet Ṣallallāhu-‘Alaihi Wa Sallam said: “Do you know what is that makes most people enter Hellfire??!!”

They (the Companions) replied: “Allāh and His Messenger know best.”

He Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam said: “The two empty ones: the GENITALS and the MOUTH and do you know what is that makes most people enter Paradise??, it is TAQWĀ OF ALLĀH and GOOD CHARACTER.”

‎﴾ولو يعجل الله للناس الشر استعجالهم بالخير لقضي إليهم أجلهم﴿

Translation: And if Allāh should hasten the evil to men as they desire the hastening on of good, their doom would certainly have been decreed for them.

Mujahid: This was revealed concerning a man who prayed against himself, his wealth or his children when he got angry, saying, “O Allaah, destroy it, O Allaah, do not bless it and curse it.”

If that were to be responded to as prayers for good were responded to, then they would have been ruined. So this verse was revealed to criticize this bad characteristic that exists in some people who pray for good and want a quick response, then sometimes their bad attitude makes them pray for bad things, but if those prayers were to be answered quickly they would be ruined!

THE MOST DIFFICULT 3 DAYS UPON MANKIND

‎|[ أصعبُ ثلاثة أيَّام على الإنسان ]|

‎قال سفيانُ بن عُيينة - رحمه اللهُ -:
‎"أوحَشُ ما يكونُ ابنُ آدمَ في ثلاثة مواطن:

Sufyān b. 'Uyaynah Raḥimahullāh said: the most loneliest time that the son of Adam will be in is 3 situations:

‎ يومَ وُلِدَ فيخرجُ إلى دارِ هَمٍّ .

1. The day he is born and comes to the abode of stress and anxiety (i.e. The world).

‎ وليلةَ يبيتُ مع الموتى فيُجاورُ
‎جيرانًا لم يَرَ مثلَهم.

2. The night he will sleep with the deceased, so he will live beside neighbors he has never seen the likes of (i.e. The grave).

‎ ويومَ يُبعثُ فيَشهدُ مشهدًا لم يَرَ مثله !!

3. The day he will be raised up (from the dead) and he will witness the likes of that which he never witnessed before (i.e. The Day of Judgement).

‎قَالَ اللهُ تعالى ليحيى في هذه
‎الثلاثة المواطن :

‌‏﴿ وَسَلَامٌ عَلَيْهِ يَوْمَ وُلِدَ وَيَوْمَ يَمُوتُ
‎وَيَوْمَ يُبْعَثُ حَيًّا ﴾

‎[مريم : ١٥]

The Inheritance Of Muḥammad Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam

‎وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه : أنه مر بسوق المدينة فوقف عليها فقال : يا أهل السوق ما أعجَزَكُم ! قالوا وما ذاك يا أبا هريرة ؟ قال : ذاك ميراث رسول الله يُقسَم وأنتم ها هنا لا تذهبون فتأخذون نصيبكم منه قالوا وأين هو ؟ قال : في المسجد . فخرجوا سِراعا إلى المسجد ووقف أبو هريرة لهم حتى رجعوا فقال لهم ما لكم ؟ قالوا يا أبا هريرة : فقد أتينا المسجد فدخلنا فلم نر فيه شيئا يُقسَم ! فقال لهم أبو هريرة : أما رأيتم في المسجد أحدا ؟ قالوا بلى رأينا قوما يصلون , وقوما يقرأون القرآن , وقوما يتذاكرون الحلال والحرام . فقال لهم أبو هريرة : ويحكم فذاك ميراث محمد

Once Abū Hurayrah Raḍi-Allāhu ‘Anhu passed by a market in Madeenah.

He stopped in there and said: “O people of the market, what has made you incapable??!”

They said: “And what is that Abū Hurayrah??”

He replied: “That is the inheritance of Allāh’s Messenger (Ṣallallāhu-‘Alaihi Wa Sallam) being distributed, while you are in here neither going nor taking your share from it!!”

They asked: “And where is it??”

He replied: “In the Masjid.”

So they went out in a rush towards the Masjid, and Abū Hurayrah waited for them until they returned.

When they came back, he asked: “What’s the matter with you?”

They replied: “O Abū Hurayrah! We went to the Masjid and entered it but we didn’t see anything being distributed in there!!”

So Abū Hurayrah asked them: “Did you not see anyone in the Masjid?”

They replied: “Indeed we saw people praying and a people reciting Qur’ān and others studying (what is) Ḥalāl (i.e permissible) and (what is) Ḥarām (i.e prohibited).”

So Abū Hurayrah said to them: “Woe to you! THAT IS THE INHERITANCE OF MUḤAMMAD (Ṣallallāhu-‘Alaihi Wa Sallam)!!”

✒ Most Beautiful Words Of Encouragement For The Callers To Truth

Sh. Ibn al-‘Uthaymīn Raḥimahullāh said:

“Be FIRM, and DO NOT change (your stance) because of the large number of attacks on you nor due to (their) being offended by your words. As long as you are upon the TRUTH then be firm, for truth is never budged (by falsehood). Thereafter, defend (the truth) if you are in a weak position. There is nothing lesser than defending (the truth). But if you are in a strong position, then upon you is to attack (the falsehood). For the days take turns (sometimes in your favor and sometimes otherwise).

But (remember) the most important thing is that even if you are in a weaker position, then you should remain firm. And never say: ‘Oh, all the people are in opposition to this.’ Rather, be firm, for Allāh Subḥaanahoo Wa Ta'ālā aids His Deen, His Book, His Messenger (Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam) throughout the ages.

No doubt that you will face harm (from the people). Here is Imām Aḥmad Raḥimahullāh, he was dragged by a mule in the market and was whipped. But he was patiently firm.
And here is Shaykh-ul-Islām (Ibn Taymiyyah), Raḥimahullāh, who was driven around in the market on a cart and was thrown in the prison, but he remained firm.

It is not possible that the earth will always be a carpet of roses and flowers for a person who clings to the Sunnah (for he will face opposition and will be harmed by the people).”

إنما يريد الشيطان أن يوقع بينكم العداوة والبغضاء في الخمر والميسر ويصدكم عن ذكر الله وعن الصلاة فهل أنتم منتهون

Satan only wants to cause between
you animosity and hatred through intoxicants and gambling and to avert you from the remembrance of Allāh and from prayer. So will you not desist?

● {Soorah al-Ma‘idah (v. 91)}

Imām Qurtubī: This aayah indicates that it is haraam to play dice or chess, whether that involves gambling or not. Because when Allaah forbade alcohol He explained the reason for that, which is “Shaytaan wants only to excite enmity and hatred between you with intoxicants and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allaah and from As-Salaah.”

So every kind of game in which a little leads to a lot and stirs up enmity and hatred between those who are devoted to it and prevents them from remembering Allaah and praying, is like drinking alcohol, which implies that it must be haraam like alcohol.

Follow Abū Hanīfah in ‘Aqīdah, not just Fiqh!

Abū Muti’ al-Balkhī reported:

I asked Imām Abū Hanīfah about a person who says: I do not know whether my Lord is above the heavens or on earth.

Abū Hanīfah said: A person who makes such a statement becomes an apostate.

This is because Allāh, the Exalted says: The Merciful has ascended above the ‘Arsh, and the ‘Arsh of Allāh is above His heavens.

I further asked Abū Hanīfah: What if such a person admits, Allāh is above His ‘Arsh, but claims he does not know whether His ‘Arsh is above the heavens or on earth.

Abū Hanīfah responded: If he denies that the 'Arsh is above the heavens, he is an apostate.

Fear Allāh But Hope Good From Him.

دخل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم على شاب و هو في الموت ، فقال : كيف تجدك ؟ قال : أرجو الله يا رسول الله و أخاف ذنوبي ، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : لا يجتمعان ( يعني الخوف و الرجاء ) في قلب عبد في مثل هذا الموطن ( يعني الاحتضار ) إلا أعطاه الله الذي يرجو و أمنه من الذي يخاف.

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ enetered upon a young man in the throes of death and asked him: “How do you feel?”

Reward Equivalent To A Year Of Fasting And Praying

From Aws Bin Aws Ath-Thaqafi who said I heard the Messenger of Allaah [ﷺ] saying:

❝Whoever performs a perfect Ghusl on Friday then goes very early to the Khutbah, walking and not riding, sits close to the Imam, listens and does not speak or keep himself busy then for every step towards the Khutbah is the reward equivalent to a year of fasting and praying.❞

[Collected By Ahmad, Abu Dawood, Tirmidhi | Authenticated By Al-Albaani In Saheeh Al-Jama As-Sagheer, (No. 6405)]

Al-Mulla Ali Al-Qari [رحمه الله] said:

❝The people of knowledge say: 'We do not know of a Hadeeth of the Prophet [ﷺ] which has more reward than this Hadeeth.'❞

‎﴾يَقُولُ يلَيْتَنِى قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِى﴿

Translation: He will say: “Alas! Would that I had sent forth for my life!”

This means: If he was a disobedient person, he will be sorry for the acts of disobedience he committed.

If he was an obedient person, he will wish that he performed more acts of obdedience.

Muhammad b. Abi `Amirah: If a servant fell down on his face (in Sujood) from the day that he was born until the day he died as an old man, in obedience to Allaah, he would scorn this act on the Day of Judgement. He would still wish to be returned to this life so that he could earn more reward and compensation!

History of this verse: Some men from the Ansar, whose doors literally opened into the Masjid, were sexually impure, and they did not have water, their only way to get water was to pass through the Masjid. So, Allaah sent down this verse.

✒ A Great Virtue Of Saying Following Dhikr

‎قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : من قال في يومٍ مائة مرة : لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له، له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيءٍ قدير ، كانت له عدل عشر رقاب ، يعني يعتقها ، وكتب الله له مائة حسنة ، ومحا عنه مائة سيئة ، وكانت في حرز من الشيطان يومه ذلك حتى يمسي ، ولم يأت أحد بأفضل مما جاء به إلا رجل عمل أكثر من عمله

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever says HUNDRED times in a day;

‘Laa Ilaaha Illallaahu Waḥdahoo Laa Shareeka Lahoo, Lahul Mulku Walahul Ḥamdu Wahuwa ‘Alaa Kulli Shay`in Qadeer’

(There is none worthy of worship in truth except Allāh alone, He has no partners, to Him belongs the Dominion and for Him is all praise, and He is capable of all things)

Then it will be for him (an equivalent) of freeing TEN slaves, and Allāh will write for him a HUNDRED good deeds, and remove from him a HUNDRED bad deeds, and he will remain SAFE from Shayṭān that day until the evening, and NO ONE will come with a better virtue than his except for a man who commits more good deeds than him.”
