QIYAM

Remembering jannah and jahannam

101. In a sermon, Rasûlullâh s allallâhu ‘alayhi wa sallam said: "There are two things which are very great - do not forget them." That is, jannah and jahannam . Upon saying this, he began weeping profusely so much so that his blessed beard got wet. He then said: "I swear in the name of that being in whose hands is my life that if you were to come to know that which I know about the hereafter, you will go away into the jungles and walk around pouring sand over your heads."

Note : O women! We have now mentioned 101 A h âdîth. Many other A h âdîth have been mentioned at various places in this book. Our beloved Rasûl s allallâhu ‘alayhi wa sallam said: "If anyone from my ummah learns 40 A h âdîth and thereafter passes them on to others, he will rise with the ‘ulamâ on the day of judgement." Make an effort to read these A h âdîth to others. Inshâ Allah , you will also rise with the ‘ulamâ on the day of judgement. Such a great bounty can be attained with great ease.
