An explanation of some of what Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) has prepared for His believing servants.

The Shaykh : So, regarding this servant, we do not say: Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the best of humanity; no, and he has a place in Paradise above all of humanity. But we take as an example this humble servant who is the last one to come out of the Fire. By what did he enter Paradise? By the weight of a mustard seed, by the weight of a mustard seed of faith. So, with this mustard seed, is he deserving of the Paradise whose width is like the world ten times over? Is he deserving of it with this mustard seed? No. So: , but this does not mean that you enter Paradise through disbelief. Rather, faith is necessary, even if it is only the weight of a mustard seed, so that he reaches it and attains this favor that Allah promised these shortcoming servants. As for His believing, sincere, and pure servants, for them is what He (Glorified and Exalted is He) said in the Holy Hadith: , which is something that does not cross the mind of any human being. You are in Paradise taking the clothes you need like fruits; how do you pick a fruit? So you pick the suit and the garment you desire like a fruit. Because there is the hadith of the Bedouin who asked the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) one day, saying to him: O Messenger of Allah, are the clothes in Paradise woven or created? The companions of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) laughed as you are laughing. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said to his companions: . He said: This is it, O Messenger of Allah. He said: . This is something that does not cross the mind of any human being. And from that, for example, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: .

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : No, here the intended meaning is a moment.

The questioner : Because this is...

The Shaykh : A departure from the custom; its carrying and placing is in an hour; that is, in a moment.
And another hadith: A Bedouin asks the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)—it is not a Bedouin; a man, it could be, yes, from the Ansar—asks the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): Is there any planting in Paradise? Is there planting in Paradise? The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) says to those around him: Look at the Ansar, how they love planting! He says to him: , yes, indeed. So all of this confirms for you that entering this Paradise, of which we have mentioned some of its descriptions, is not something a person deserves merely for his faith and his righteous deeds. Rather, it is by the favor of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and His mercy. But as a cause, faith and righteous deeds are necessary...
