QUALITIES OF THE INHABITANTS OF THE HEAVEN




Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuhu!

Every one of us wants to be admitted into Jannah, but very little from amongst us work our way through getting it.
Jannah is a priceless price that can’t be earned, no matter how many good deeds we do we just can’t work our way through getting it. Only with Allah’s mercy one shall be admitted into Heaven. The ranks of Jannah will be determined by our good deeds but not our admission.

 As Allah says in the Qur’an in Surah Al Waqi’ah 56, ayat 24- “As a reward for their good deeds that they had done.”
·       The quality of those inhabitants of Jannah will be that they had done good deeds in the Dunya. Good deeds are supposed to meet two conditions for it to be accepted, the first one being the sincere intention to please Allah without any Show off or Shirk, and the second one doing those deeds accepted and proved by the way of our beloved Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم , without any fabrication or innovation done in his name. 

 “There they shall not hear any vain talk nor sinful words.” [56:25]

·       The quality which we learn from the inhabitants of the heaven is the beautification of their speech. They won’t hear let alone speak vain talks. Vain talks include purposeless meaningless conversations about the dunya, people and inappropriate discussions. They won’t have bad manners or bad conduct among the people. They won’t speak sinful words which include backbiting, taunting, mocking or lies. These were their qualities in the dunya which is how their quality will be in the Jannah. May Allah admit us from amongst them. Ameen!

“But only the greetings of ‘Peace be upon you! Peace be upon you!’” [56:26]
·       In Jannah, there will only be peace everywhere, there will be no hardships or difficulty, no hatred or any kind of hatred in themselves. Only peace and peace. Peaceful words, peaceful place, peaceful people and peaceful conversations. And it will all be forever. The quality we learn from the inhabitants of the Jannah is to spread lots of Salam to people whom you know and not, to keep checking the utterance of our words if they are peaceful or not, to remove hatred and grudges from our hearts and keep it peaceful. The tone and expression of your face and speech should also be dripping with peace. May Allah admit us from amongst them and embark upon us the qualities of the inhabitants of Jannah. Ameen!
