Introduction

 Allah does not let the deeds of the pious go to waste. They will have lofty residences and chambers set above one another, constructed with structures that are befitting to Paradise, under which rivers flow. Allah says:

´´And it is not your wealth, nor your children that bring you never to Us (i.e. pleases Allah), but only he (Will please Us) who believes (in the Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds; as for such, there will be two fold reward for what they did, and they will reside in the high dwellings (Paradise) in peace and security.´´ (Saba´: 37)

It is not wealth nor children that bring a slave closer to his Lord unless he directs this wealth and hildren to righteous deeds; such as using the wealth to build a mosque, endow copies of the Qur´an, take care of the orphan and raise the child to memorise the Qur´an and to make him beneficial to the Ummah. In these instances, wealth and children will draw him closer to Allah, the Exalted.

Rather, the rewards for these types of people are mulitplied. Someone will be rewarded in the multiples of ten up to seven hundred. He will then enter Paradise and he will be made to occupy the lofty chambers; securred from all konds of fear.

Salvation

 None will be saved on the Day of Resurrection except he who used to worship alah alone with Whom there is no associate. As for the other gods, they will lead their adherents into the Fire.

Voluntary Fasting

 Fasting is one of the major acts of worship with which Allah redeems the fasting person from the Fire. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Fasting is a shield against the Fire (of Hell) just like the shield one of you would use during fighting.´´80 The supererogatory fasting has its virtue. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´He who observes fast for a day in the path of Allah, He will remove his face from the Hell due to (the fast of) that day to the extent of seventy years.´ distance.´´81 The phrase ´in the path of Allah´ could either mean fasting a day sincerely, intending the pleasure of Allah; or fasting in the course of a military expedition in the path of Allah.

Backbiter and Tale-Bearer

 A backbiter is the individual who indugles in backiting which involves mentioning about your brother that which he would detest. The tale-bearer is the person who varries bad tale among the people in order to cause disaffection among them. These sins cause pervading tribulations, and enormous corruption also stems from them. Their perpetrators are among the worst of people and due to their capricious tongue, they speak as dictated by their whims and desires.  Their situation at the time of resurrection will be appalling as the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam mentioned, Whoever eats the flesh of his brother in the world (i.e. bacjbites), he will be presented to him on the Day of Resurrection and it will be said to him, Eat his dead as you have eaten him alive. He would eat him and he would scowl and scream.
