2. Unimaginable Bliss
RasulAllah sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam taught us that in Jannah
there is that
“Which no eye has witnessed, no ear has heard, and that which
has never been imagined by any human.”
3. Unimaginable Bliss…
“And no soul knows what has been hidden for them of
comfort of the eye (satisfaction) as reward for what
they used to do”
(As-Sajdah 32:17)
5. Indeed the companions of Paradise, that Day,
will be amused in [joyful] occupation (36:
55)
6. • They are indulged in “shughl” – different hobbies,
fun times, having a blast
• Fakihoon – partying! It’s not work – it’s a fun
hobby, that you indulge in once a week or month,
and that hour is gone before you know it.
• In Jannah its just these fun hobbies and no tedious
work!
• But sometimes you’re having a great time but
after a while you get lonely – and you want
company
7. They and their spouses - in shade,
reclining on adorned couches. (36:56)
8. • Your spouses are having a great time with you! Rolling with
the crew
• They will be in shade – imagine this picture. This couple in
this beautiful garden – there’s this HUGE tree – that if a
person rode a horse for a hundred years, the shade wouldn’t
end!
• There’s something special about being in nature, in shade,
in cool breeze, beauty, and leisure
• And not just on grass – you’re in THRONES – leaning back
• A huge, beautiful comfy recliner, under a huge beautiful
tree, in Paradise, forever
• So after a while you wish to grab a bite…
9. For them therein is fruit, and for them is
whatever they request [or wish].
(36:57)
10. • In another place Allah tells us that there will be huge
beautiful fruit hanging right above them on the tree
• They wont even have to extend their hand to pluck it
off – qutoofuha daniya, it will lower itself to you
• And not just fruit, you feel like having something
else, well you’ve got ANYTHING you want!
12. • When you’ve got all this luxury and food and
beauty, there’s one more desire we have –
respect, attention, concern
• It’s a basic human need
• The more people greet you, especially when
they line up to greet you all the time, the more
special and imp you are
• Here Allah HIMSELF will send salam to
them!
14. The Ambience in Jannah
Imagine yourself in Jannah. Jannah doesn’t have any
gossip; no, “Did you hear about brother so and so,” or
“Did see what sister so and so is wearing.” Your face is
shining with joy and you’re so glad that you woke up
for Fajr all those days, glad you paid your zakah, glad
you wore hijab all those summer days.
This is what the atmosphere is like in Jannah:
“Faces that day will be joyful (radiant). Satisfied with the
effort they put (in the dunya). In an elevated garden. Where
they shall hear no unsuitable speech”
(Al-Ghaashiyah 88:8-11)
16. “And if you ask about its ground
and its soil, then it is of musk and
saffron.
17. And if you ask about its roof, then it
is the Throne of the Most Merciful.
18. And if you ask about its rocks, then
they are pearls and jewels.
19. And if you ask about its
buildings, then they are made of bricks
of gold and silver.
20. And if you ask about its trees, then it
does not contain a single tree except
that its trunk is made of gold and
silver.
21. And if you ask about its fruits, then
they are softer than butter and sweeter
than honey.
22. And if you ask about its leaves, then
they are softer than the softest cloth.
23. And if you ask about their drinking
cups, then they are crystal-clear and
made of gold and silver.
24. And if you ask about its vastness, then the lowest of
its people would have within his kingdom and walls
and palaces and gardens the distance that would be
travelled in a thousand years.
25. And if you ask about its tents and
encampments, then one tent is like a
concealed pearl that is sixty miles long.
26. And if you ask about how far it reaches into
the sky, then look at the shining star that is
visible, as well as those that are far in the
heavens that the eyesight cannot possibly reach.
27. And if you ask about the clothing of
its inhabitants, then they are of silk
and gold.
28. And if you ask about its beds, then its
blankets are of the finest silk laid out
in the highest of its levels.
30. If she were to be unleashed upon the World, she would
fill what is between the Heavens and the Earth with a
beautiful wind…
31. …and everything between the East and the West would
be adorned for her…
…and the light of the Sun would be outshone just as the
light of the Sun outshines the light of the stars
32. And the covering on her head is better than the
World and all that is in it…
33. And the highest of Jannah’s blessings
is the meeting with Allah!
34. How to Reach
Jannah?
There are doors into Paradise
How to unlock?
35. Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their
properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in
the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed. [It is] a true promise
[binding] upon Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. And
who is truer to his covenant than Allah? So rejoice in your transaction
which you have contracted. And it is that which is the great
attainment.
(9:111)
36. Let’s go home
today driving
towards Jannah!
Jazakumullah Khairan
