Hadith of the Day - October 18th, 2008

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "A space in Jannah equal to the distance between the middle and the end of a bow will be better than all that upon which the sun rises and sets.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary: Just a very small -- a wee bit of a place in the Jannah is better than the whole world, as this world would soon come to an end while Jannah will be eternal.

Subhanallaah, May Allaah(swt) give us a share of his Jannat by his Mercy.
'Umar ibn al-Khattaab radiallaahu 'anhu related: Once there was a women who was frantically searching for someone amongst the prisoners of war who had been brought to the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam. When she found a child amongst the prisoners, she took it and pressed it against her chest for it to suckle. At that point the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam turned to his Companions and said: "Do you think that this woman will ever allow her child to be thrown into a fire?" They said: By Allaah! As far as it lies within her power, she will never allow the child to be thrown into a fire. The Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam then said: "Indeed Allaah is kinder to His servants than this woman is to her child."
