The questioner : What is the meaning of His saying: Sahih Muslim 904c
The Shaykh : It means: There is nothing that Allah has promised you in the Hereafter except that it will be presented to you, just as the first wording implies: "You will enter it," meaning: you will enter it, and people will enter Paradise or the Fire, and it is inevitable.
The questioner : Does it not include matters of this world?
The Shaykh : No, I do not think it includes them.
There is nothing which you have been promised
