Traits of the People of Paradise
Allaah mentions the traits of the people of Paradise.
Who spend [in the cause of Allah ] during ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people - and Allah loves the doers of good;
[Qur'aan 3:134]
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one who controls himself while in anger."
[Sahih al-Bukhaari Hadith No. 6114]
Narrated `Abdullah:
The Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said, "Who among you considers the wealth of his heirs dearer to him than his own wealth?" They replied, "O Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam)! There is none among us but loves his own wealth more."
The Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said, "So his wealth is whatever he spends (in Allah's Cause) during his life (on good deeds) while the wealth of his heirs is whatever he leaves after his death."
[Sahih al-Bukhaari Hadith No. 6442]
