ASK FOR AL-FIRDAUS:


Narrated by Abu Huraira (radiallaahu 'anhu):

The Prophet (salallaahu 'alaihiwasallam) said,

Whoever believes in Allaah and His Messenger, offers prayer perfectly and fasts the month of Ramadan, will rightfully be granted Paradise by Allaah, no matter whether he fights in Allaah's Cause or remains in the land where he is born." The people said, "O Allaah's Messenger! Shall we acquaint the people with the good news?" He said, "Paradise has one hundred grades which Allaah has reserved for the Mujahidin who fight in His Cause, and the distance between each of two grades is like the distance between the Heaven and the Earth. So, when you ask Allaah (for something), ask for Al-Firdaus which is the best and highest part of Paradise." (The sub-narrator added, "I think the Prophet also said, 'Above it (i.e. Al-Firdaus) is the Throne of Ar-Rahman (The Most Beneficent, i.e. Allaah), and from it originate the rivers of Paradise."
