Quick Hadith 057

The Prophet SAW's Companion - Rabi’ah Al-Jurashi RA narrates that Rasulullah SAW had a dream wherein he saw a person (an angel) who told him:

"May your eyes sleep and your ears hear and your heart understand."

Rasulullah SAW (accepted this by) saying:

"My eyes has slept, my ears have heard and my heart has understood."

Rasulullah SAW said:

"It was told to me:

"A king built a house and prepared a meal in the house. The king sent his messenger (to invite people to partake of the meal). Whosoever accepted the invitation entered the house and ate from the food, the king became happy with him. Whosoever did not accept the invitation and did not enter the house and did not partake of the meals, the king was displeased with him." "

Rasulullah SAW said:

"Allah is the King; Muhammad (SAW) is the Messenger; The house is Islam; and the meals is Jannah (Paradise)." " (Mishkaat: Qadeemi)


COMMENTARY

The instruction to Humanity is crystal clear. Allah Ta'ala created Jannah and its bounties. Allah sent Rasulullah SAW as the Messenger to invite people to enter the house of Islam. Those invitees who accept the invitation, will enter Jannah and enjoy its Bounties.
