May Allah give you a good evening.
The Shaykh:
May Allah keep you safe.
The questioner:
The question has two parts. The first part is the hadith that came to us from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). May Allah protect you. (peace and blessings be upon him). Turn off the television, turn off the television, Salim. Go ahead, my brother. The one who said to his companions, “Who among you has fasted today, who among you has followed a funeral procession today, and who among you has given charity today?” Abu Bakr said, “I did.” If I did what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned, whether in the past or in the future, do I deserve Paradise?
The Shaykh:
If Allah wills, if you did these things. Be patient, my brother. Be patient, be patient a little. Be patient, my brother. Yes, if you did what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned with a good intention and a sincere intention, then you have the reward for what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned.
