Can We Talk?

 *🕌Can We Talk?🕌*

--------------------------------

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم

Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (r.a.), reported that the Prophet (PBUH) said: “Allah will say, ‘O Adam!’ and he will say, ‘Here I am at Your service, and all goodness is in Your hand.’ He will say, ‘Bring forth those who are to be sent to Hell.’ He will say, ‘Who are those who are to be sent to Hell?’ He will say, ‘From every thousand, nine hundred and ninety nine.’ At that point the young will turn grey, every pregnant female will abort, and the people will appear intoxicated although they are not. But the punishment of Allah is severe...."📚by al-Bukhari (3348) and Muslim (222)

According to the above hadith, the number of those who will be saved on the Day of Resurrection is one in a thousand. Yes. And the scholars have reconciled between the above hadith and all the ahadith related to this in several ways, such as the following:

*"That the numbers are not to be taken literally, so stating a particular number does not mean that there may not be more than one. What is meant by the numbers mentioned in all the related hadith and this very one is the small number of sincere believers versus (vs) the large number of Muslims who who cheaply fall for the devil and the kaafirs"*.

My people!

Any act of worship which majority of Muslims find very difficult to practice is always *"A Reward Pool Venture"*. By implication, the more difficult an act of worship is, the more rewards practicing that act of worship can pool.

Now,

*Money Leaving our Pockets or Bank Accounts:*

The above hadith should not shock us because if a call is made to give out something in exchange for Jannah, in a gathering where you have one thousand Muslims (for instance), you hardly get 3-5 out of 1000 who will defeat shaytan. This doesn't mean that the large number who refused to respond do not pray or fast.

Before I forget,

On the Day of Resurrection, all people that ever lived will be gathered before Allah (swt) to await Allah's judgment for all they have done. During this time, the sun ☀️ will come very close to the people.

People will want to get away from the heat of the sun ☀️ but there will be no Shade or shelter to go to and EVERYBODY will start sweating in proportion to their sins. The more sins a person has the more he or she will sweat😳. Yes. During this traumatic time, however, one of the seven groups of people who are mentioned in the Hadeeth (Prophetic narration) will be completely immune to the sun’s heat and they will be in complete comfort. Who are these people?

*"The believer’s shade on the Day of Resurrection will be his charity.”*📚(Tirmidhi)

Muslim Faithful!

The hadith above did not mention considering people who pray or fast or do dhikr, but the canopy will be made available to cover only the Muslims who engage in the FREQUENT giving of charity in this world.

My people!

This world 🌎 is a place for trials and tests. Therefore, anywhere you find yourself and there's a call to give out charity, do not think that if you give out from the little you have, you will not be able to solve this or that problem. After all, even if you refused giving, that will not remove your financial problems for life.

We should not forget,

That any amount we spend on our family is something. But anything we give to promote the religion of Allah (swt) and to people outside our immediate family is a huge investment.

Evidence:

يَآأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَنفِقُواْ مِمَّا رَزَقۡنَٰكُم مِّن قَبۡلِ أَن يَأۡتِيَ يَوۡمࣱ لَّا بَيۡعࣱ فِيهِ وَلَا خُلَّةࣱ وَلَا شَفَٰعَةࣱۗ وَٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ هُمُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ

"O you who have believed, spend from that which We have provided for you before there comes a Day in which there is no buying & selling and no friendship and no intercession. And the disbelievers - they are the wrongdoers."📚Al-Baqarah 2:254
