You have to first make a move towards Allah ﷻ, and then Allah ﷻ will respond!
Islam is all about practicality, mere lip service is disregarded and branded as Nifaaq.
Words are always succeeded by Actions.

Allah ﷻ doesn't owe you anything. 
So don't expect to be a person who doesn't practice anything from Islam and is granted Jannatul Firdous.

It never worked like that, does not work like that and would never work like that.

Abu Huraira  رضي الله عنه reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
“When Allah created Paradise and Hellfire, he sent Jibreel عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ to Paradise saying: Behold it and what I have prepared therein for its people. Jibreel عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ came and looked at it and what Allah had prepared therein for its people. He returned to Allah and he said: By your might, no one will hear of it but that he will enter it.

Allah ordered that it be surrounded by adversity and he said: Return to it and behold what I have prepared therein for its people. Jibreel عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ returned and found that it was surrounded by hardship. He returned to Allah and he said: By your might, I fear that no one will enter it.

Allah said: Go to the Hellfire and behold it and what I have prepared therein for its people. Jibreel عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ found that it was in layers, one above another. He returned to Allah and he said: By your might, no one who hears of it will enter it.

Allah ordered that it be surrounded by desires and he said: Return to it. Jibreel عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ returned and he said: By your might, I fear that no one will escape it.”
[Sunan al-Tirmidhī 2560, Grade: Sahih (authentic)]

Jannah is hard to reach but worth every struggle.
Hellfire is easy to fall into but will be the biggest regret for a person.

Allah ﷻ will help a person if he helps himself!
The way Islam is, that you do everything to the best of your ability and then you leave the rest to Allah! 
Don't ever stop and assume you have done enough, because that is when we fall short and make the big mistake of slacking.

May Allah ﷻ guide us all and make us among the righteous. May Allah ﷻ give us the Tawfeeq to make an effort for this Deen and May Allah ﷻ grant us Jannatul Firdous.   
آمِيْن يَارَبَّ الْعَالَمِينْ

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today?

 One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today? Alhamdulillah, it is clear from Quran and hadiths that any christian who dies believing Jesus is God or son of God and do not believe in prophet Muhammad Peace be Upon Him will enter hellfire. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:17 They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allāh is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allāh at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:72 لَقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَۖ وَقَالَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشۡرِكۡ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُۖ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنۡ أَنصَ...

PURIFICATION OF THE HEART

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 20th day of Swafar 1447AH, Thursday, 14th August 2025. *_PURIFICATION OF THE HEART_*. BismilLah.  A sister asked me yesterday how we can purify ourselves to achieve the immense benefits mentioned in our reminder yesterday.  The command to purify our hearts from sins was an essential Islamic teaching ever since the early stages of the revelation in Mecca. This is known as “purification of the soul” (tazkiyyat an-nafs).   ALLAH Azzawajal says: He has succeeded who purifies the soul, and he has failed who corrupts the soul. Surah Ash-Shams 91:9-10. Also, ALLAH Azzawajal says: A day when there will be no benefit in wealth or children, but only in he who comes to ALLAH Azzawajal with a pure heart. Surah Ash-Shu’ara 26:88-89.  We learn from these verses that our success in the Hereafter depends upon the purification of our hearts in this life. We must purify our hearts from spiritual sins such as greed, malice, envy, arrog...
