Let us pause and reflect

Let us pause and reflect

As Muslims, would any of us ever wish to enter Jahannum (Hell)?
Certainly not.

Then we must ask ourselves a difficult but necessary question: Who are the people described as the dwellers of Jahannum?

They are those who knowingly reject the truth, persist in disbelief, and live lives steeped in wrongdoing. They lie, deceive, act dishonestly, spread corruption, and harm society.

We must stop for a moment and ask ourselves: Are we guilty of any such wrongdoing? Or are we, knowingly or unknowingly, walking the path that leads toward Jahannum?

Being a Muslim is not an automatic ticket to Jannat (Paradise). To attain Jannat, good deeds are necessary. In the Qur’an, wherever Iman (faith) is mentioned, it is immediately followed by the mention of good deeds.

On the Day of Judgement, every deed  – good or evil, small or big – will be counted:

“So whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it, and whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it.” (Al-Qur’an 99:7-8)
