Dear respected brothers and sisters. I am extremely sorry for the long time without updating the blog as I had to be away on a trip.
InshaAllah again we will be having topics as before.
Meanwhile, I would like to mention a Hadith regarding Paradise, and Hell Fire. Indeed this is something we all must read again and again, and make our hardened hearts soft.
"When Allah created paradise and hell, he sent Jibreel (Gabriel) to paradise, saying: 'Go and look at it and the things I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he went and looked at it and at what Allah had prepared therein for its inhabitants. He then came back and said: 'By your glory, whosoever will hear of it will long to enter it.' So he ordered that it be surrounded by forms of hardship, and said to Jibreel: 'Go back and look at what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he went back and found that it was surrounded by forms of hardship. Then he came back and said:'By your glory, I fear that no-one will enter it.'
Then he sent him to the fire of hell saying, 'Go and look at it and what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he looked at it and saw that it was in layers, one above the other. Then he came back and said: 'By your glory, whoever hears of it will never try to enter it.' So he ordered that it be surrounded by passions and desires, and said:'Go and see what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.' So he went and looked at it, then came back and said,'by your glory, I fear that no-one will escape from entering it.'" (Muslim, Abu Daawood and Imaam Ahmad)
Knowing this truth, how can I complain of these small difficulties which I have?
Whenever I hear about Jannah, my desires increase and gives me hope, but whenever I hear Jahannam, my fear overtakes me and Subuhaanallah I cannot describe it.
Therefore I am in between fear and hope, without knowing which will be my end.
Wassalam 'Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
