As Salaam O 'Alaykum Wa Rehmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuh! Sibling in Islam,

Hope this mail finds you in the best of health and emaan, Insha-ALLAAH!

The Messenger of Allah (sallaAllahu 'alayhi wasallam) was sitting with a group of the sahabah (RAA) in the masjid and he said,

"A man will now enter [who is] from the people of Paradise." and a sahabi walked in. 

Later it happened again, and then a third time. 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn al-'aas (radhi ta 'ala anhu) wanted to find out what was so special about this man, so he asked the man if he can stay over his house for 3 days. 

(He made up an excuse). 

The man allowed him to stay. 

'Abdullah noticed that the man didn't do anything out of the ordinary: He didn't fast all the time, he slept some of the night and prayed some of the night, and so on. 

So after the 3 days, 'Abdullah told him the real reason why he requested to stay with him, and he asked him what it was that could be the reason why he was from the people of Jannah.

The man (RA) couldn't think of anything, but after a bit he said "Every night, before I go to sleep, I forgive whoever has wronged me. I remove any bad feelings towards anyone from my heart."

(Kitab al-Zuhd by Ibn al-Mubarak - Number 694 [Also in Musnad Ahmad])

SubhanALLAAH!
Let us also try to forgive others for whatever they have done, to show that we trully want Jannah!

Inna lillaahi wa inna ilayhi ra ji 'un!

[[ Surely we belong to Allah and to Him shall we return ]]

[2:156, Quran]

Abdullah bin Umro bin Aas (radhi ta'ala anhu) reports:

Prophet (salla ALLAAHu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: 

"Those who have mercy will receive the mercy of the Most Merciful. Have mercy on those who are on earth, the One in heavens will have mercy on you." 

(Tirmidhi )

Oh ALLAAH azza wa jal Have Mercy on all of us!

Aameen Ya Rabbal 'Aalameen!

w ALLAAHu Subhanu wa ta'ala 'Aalam!

Take Care,

As Salaam O 'Alaykum Wa Rehmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuh!
