A way of attaining Jannah
Beautiful lines taken from Imam Ibn Al Qayyim رحمه الله’s poem Nooniyyah. (Watch the video)
_
Jannah has a price, a requirement!
It’s price is Imaan and righteous actions!
This is the Mahr of Jannah!
You think such a bride will marry a man who cannot acquire her Mahr?
Or a man too attached to his mistress, the Dunya?
_
Allah ﷻ says
لِمِثلِ هٰذَا فَليَعمَلِ العَامِلُون
For the likes of this, let the workers work.
[37:61]
_
The likes of what?
The likes of Jannah!
_
And the Prophet ﷺ said in a Hadith Qudsi that Allah ﷻ said “I have prepared for my righteous slaves that which no eye has seen, no ear has heard and no heart has ever perceived”
[Sahih al-Bukhari 7498]
_
You want all of the rewards?
Seeing Allah?
Company of the Prophets and Sahaba and the righteous?
Palaces?
Rivers?
Anything you could ever desire?
_
Then work hard in the Dunya! Sacrifice it and its delusional seduction for the unseen reward waiting for you!
_
As Allah ﷻ says:
سَارِعُوا إِلٰى مَغفِرَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُم وَ جَنَّةٍ عَرضُهَا السَّمَاوَاتُ وَ الأَرضُ
Race towards the forgiveness from your Lord, and a Paradise that is the width of the heavens and the earth.
[3:133]
_
Race!
Does that mean be reluctant?
Does that mean be neglectful?
Of course not!
_
It means do as many good deeds as you possibly can before your time is gone!
_
Ya Ibn Adam! Time is ever depreciating!
So don’t waste what you have left and work hard to earn Jannah!
_
May Allah ﷻ make us among those who race towards the forgiveness of Allah ﷻ and grant us Jannatul Firdaus.
آمِيْن يَارَبَّ الْعَالَمِينْ
