Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 1682Da'if (Al-Albani). The hadith states that whoever is promised entry into Paradise will have the reward of a martyr, and for every morsel he feeds, Allah will feed him in the food of Paradise.
Answer:
This is a promise of entry into Paradise for him. This is among the deeds that cause entry into Paradise, so this is a promise of his entry into Paradise. But does a person guarantee for himself entry into Paradise? He does not guarantee for himself entry into Paradise; he does not know. However, this indicates that this deed is a cause for his entry into Paradise.
The presenter:
Naturally, everything is so.
