The questioner : May Allah reward you. A questioner asks: Is it established in a hadith that the keeper of Paradise is named Ridwan?

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : Naming the keeper of Paradise Ridwan. He asks: Is it established in...?

The Shaykh : Yes, meaning he asks: Is it established that the name of the keeper of Paradise is Ridwan? The answer is: I do not know that it is established from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). However, it is well-known among the scholars and well-known among the common people. The naming of the Angel of Death as Azrael is also well-known, and this has no basis. Even the scholars have stated that this is not correct. Yes.
