Purchase Garments of Paradise


Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wasallam) said: “If any Muslim clothes
a Muslim when he is naked, Allah will clothe him with some green
garments of Paradise; if any Muslim feeds a Muslim when he is hungry,
Allah will feed him with some of the fruits of Paradise; and if any
Muslim gives a Muslim drink when he is thirsty, Allah will give him
some of the pure wine which is sealed to drink.” [Abu Daud]

Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) has made some things easy for us to acquire,
that we otherwise would not have known how to obtain. Had Allah
(subhana wa ta’ala) not told us, we would not even have known of
Paradise let alone the garments therein. Not only has he informed us
of their existence but made it possible for each one of us to easily
get some.

Are we getting as excited about it as we do about a clearance sale at
our favourite clothes’ store? If not, then there is something wrong
with our eeman. Hazrat Ali (radi Allahu anhu) said that if he were to
see Paradise with his own eyes he would not long for it more than he
already longs for it. Nor would he by seeing Jahannum with his own
eyes fear it more than he already does. This shows us the level of
belief the Sahabah had in the words of Allah (subhana wa ta’ala).
