Random Hadith Filler

I haven't had time to find a real interesting topic to talk about, so here's a couple of hadiths to tide you over. Hopefully I'll get my work under control and will be able to post a proper article soon. :)

Allah SWT's Messenger (SAW) said: "Do you know the thing which most commonly brings people into Paradise? It is fear of Allah and good character. Do you know what most commonly brings people into Hell? It is the two hollow thins: the mouth and the private parts." (Tirmidhi)

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said: "Whoever wants to know what Allah has prepared for him, should look to what he has prepared for Allah." (Abu Nu'aym, al-Hilyah. Silsilah as-Saheehah (sound chain) #2310)

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said: "All of a human being's words count against him and not for him, except commanding the right, forbidding the wrong, and the mention of Allah Most High." (Tirmidhi)

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) Said: "A gate of paradise will open to one of those who mock people and a cry will be heard, "Come ehre, come here," and he will come forward in concern and anxiety, but when he reaches it, it will close in front of him.

The Path Between Hope and Fear

I had two other blogs for a while: The Book of Hope and The Book of Fear, but today it occurred to me that it would be better to just combine them and mix the posts, because I'd rather not have a non-believer end up at the Book of Fear and think "Wow, those Muslims are screwed up! Their God is so mean!". So, I removed those two and made one new website pathofhopeandfear.blogspot.com. And I'll try and post something every monday! :)
