No ka poʻe pono ʻo Jannah

Paradise is a wonderous place, full of things that the eyes have never seen and the mind cannot even imagine.

Ua ʻōlelo ka Makaula SAW:

“In Paradise there are rooms that their inside can be seen from outside and outside can be seen from inside.” He was asked, “For whom are these rooms, E ka Elele a ke Akua?” Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia, “They are for he who soften his speech, feeds the people, continues to fast, and prays at night while the people are asleep.” [Ahmad].

Conditions of going to Paradise according to the Qur’an include:

‘Those who spend (freely), whether in prosperity, or in adversity; who restrain anger, and pardon (pau loa) nā kāne;- for Allah loves those who do good;-

And those who, having done something to be ashamed of, or wronged their own souls, earnestly bring Allah to mind, and ask for forgiveness for their sins,- and who can forgive sins except Allah?- and are never obstinate in persisting knowingly in (the wrong) they have done.
For such the reward is forgiveness from their Lord, and Gardens with rivers flowing underneath,-an eternal dwelling: How excellent a recompense for those who work (and strive)!’

[Surah Al-i-Imran, 134-136]

This beautiful verse proves that jannah is not just for the righteous, but for those who do wrong, seek forgiveness and strive against themselves.

May Allah SWT make us from amongst the people of Paradise ameen.
