Today is all that you have


It is reported on the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn 'Amr (radiyAllahu anhu) that Allah’s Messenger sallaAllahu 'alayhi wa salam said “… verily, he whose abode will be Paradise, his final deed will be the deeds of the people of Paradise, whatever he did (previously), and verily, he whose destined for the Hell-Fire, his final deed will be of the people of the Hell-Fire, whatever he did (previously).” (Narrated by Ahmad and At-Tirmizi)

Great Women of Islam Who were given the good News of Paradise


“One day [‘Aishah bint Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her)] was fasting and a beggar came to her apartment and asked for some food. She told her maid to give the lady the piece of bread they had. The maid answered that there was nothing else with which she could break her fast. 'Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) answered curtly that she should help the hungry woman and the evening would take care of itself. By the evening, someone sent her a dish of cooked meat; she said to the maid that Allah 'Azza wa jal had provided her with something even better than what she had given away.”
