﷽
Let us Strive for This
Allah ﷻ talks about Jannah and he says
لِمِثْلِ هَٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ الْعَامِلُونَ
For the like of this let the workers work.
[37:61]
Meaning we work to obey Allah, have piety, worship Allah ﷻ and avoid sin and engaging in repentance, all to the best of our ability.
_
All of this striving, sacrifice and hard work for what?
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ
Surely the Pious will be in bliss.
[83:22]
Meaning they’ll be in Jannah!
And Allah ﷻ says about the people entering Jannah.
خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَآ أَبَدًۭا
They shall enter therein forever.
[98:8]
Meaning there is no coming out from the bliss, there is no end to it, and there is no decrease in it. Only an increase in pleasure and bliss.
_
When we enter Jannah, the Guardians of Jannah will greet us,
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءُوهَا وَفُتِحَتْ أَبْوَٰبُهَا وَقَالَ لَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَا سَلَٰمٌ عَلَيْكُمْ طِبْتُمْ فَٱدْخُلُوهَا خَٰلِدِينَ
When they arrive, they will find its wide open, and its keepers will say to them, ‘Peace be upon you. You have been good. Come in: you are here to stay,’
[39:73]
_
Can you imagine?
Do not fret if your life is Hard in Dunya because you’re practicing Deen but your being tested by your environment, look forward to Al Akhirah where Jannah is.
_
As Prophet ﷺ said
“The most privileged people in the world from the people of the Hellfire will come on the Day of Resurrection to be dipped in the Hellfire, then it will be said: O son of Adam, did you see any good? Did you get any blessing? He will say: No, by Allah, my Lord! Then the most miserable people in the world from the people of Paradise will come on the Day of Resurrection to be dipped in the Paradise, then it will be said: O son of Adam, did you see any hardship? Did you have any distress? He will say: No, by Allah, my Lord! I did not once see hardship or distress.
[Sahih Muslim 2807]
_
Ya Ibn Adam! Strive for the sake of Allah ﷻ and Look forward to a day when your face shines with Noor, to a day where your Lord smiles at you, and you go to him smiling.
_
Ya Ibn Adam! Look forward to a day when Hardships are removed!
_
May Allah ﷻ grant us ease.
