31 MAY (HOTD) - When Allah Had Created Paradise, He Said To Jibrail ('Alaihis Salam): Go & Visit It!

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi 'wasallam in a Hadith Qudsi said: When Allah had created Paradise, He said to Jibrail ('Alaihis Salam): Go and visit it! So he went and saw it, returned, and submitted: O my Rabb! By Your Might and Honour, none shall hear about it except that he shall (strive to) enter it! Then (Allah) surrounded it with adversities (adherence to Shari'ah, which at times is against personal desires) and ordered: O Jibrail! Go and visit it (again). So he went, saw it, and returned; then submitted: O my Rabb! By Your Might and Honour, indeed I fear that none shall (be able to) enter it! Then, Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: When Allah created the Fire (of Hell), then He said: O Jibrail! Go and visit it! So he went and saw it, returned, and submitted: O my Rabb! By Your Might and Honour, none shall hear about it except that he shall (strive to) avoid it! Then (Allah) surrounded it with carnal desires, and ordered: O Jibrail! Go and visit it (again)! So he went, saw it, and returned, then submitted: O my Rabb! By Your Might, Honour, and Majesty; I fear that none shall (be able to) avoid it! (Abu Dawud: 4744)

May - 31 (Quran)

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says (Translation): And strive in Allah's cause as you ought to strive (with sincerity and with all efforts that His Name should be superior). He has chosen you (to convey His message by inviting mankind to the religion of Islam) and has not laid upon you in religion any hardship (that is the practice of Deen is easy). It is the religion of your father Ibrahim. It is He (Allah ) who has named you Muslims (obedient and loyal) both before and in this (Qur an); so that the Messenger (Muhammad Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam) may be a witness over you, and you may be a witnesses over mankind. (Al-Hajj 22: 78)

Note: This refers to the Day of Resurrection when the Ummahs of other Rasuls will deny that their Rasuls had invited them to the Truth about Allah and this Day, then their Rasul will present the Ummah of Muhammad Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam to bear witness against them. The Ummah of Muhammad Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam will be asked: How do you attest to this Truth, and who told you this? They will reply: Our Rasul Muhammad Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam informed us! And then, Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam will himself testify to this Truth. Some Commentators have interpreted the last part of this verse as meaning: We have
picked you (Ummah of Muhammad Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam), so that the Messenger informs you and teaches you, and you in turn, inform and teach the rest of mankind. (Kashf-ur-Rahman)

No good deed will be accepted without faith in the hereafter: Surah Kahf Ayat No: 105 It is taught: No good deed will be accepted without faith. The good deeds are accepted with the condition of faith. No matter how good the deed is, if it is done without faith, Allah will neither value it nor give reward for it. Therefore, we should be thankful to Allah for bestowing this great bounty of faith to earn more virtues in the Hereafter. We should pray Allah to safeguard our faith and give death with faith.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says (Translation): If only there had been among the generations that have gone before you, any upright men who preached against Al-Fasad (disbelief, polytheism, and all kinds of crimes and sins) in the land, except the few whom We saved from among them?

And your Rabb would not have ruined those towns, without just cause, had their inhabitants been correcting (their own lives and the lives of others). (Hud 11: 116-117)

Note: The reason of the destruction of past generations, was the absence of such wise people, who enjoined good and forbade evil, save a few, who were saved from the torment of Allah.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says (Translation): The masjids of Allah are only to be maintained and served by those, who believe in Allah, and the Last Day, and establish Salat, and give Zakat, and fear none save Allah, for (such) it is expected that, they will be of the (rightly) guided. (At-Tawbah 9: 18)

Note: The maintenance of a masjid implies that all the actions of the Masjid of Rasuluilah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam are done in it. This includes Da'wat of Iman gatherings in which belief in the unseen is developed, study circles on the virtues of A'mal, acquiring knowledge and Dhikr, the religious education and training of those coming from outside, worship and the services of guests. Another important aspect of the Masjid of Rasuluilah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam was the sending of the Jama'ats (groups) for Da'wat work, both within the country and to foreign countries. Similarly receiving and being host to Jama'ats from within the country and abroad. This is generally expressed as "Hijrat and Nusrat". (Bayan-ul-Quran)
