There are Numerous Gardens in Paradise

 Harrithah ibn Suraaqah was a young oy from the Ansaar and there is an interesting story concerning him. He went out with the Muslims to the Battle of Uhud but before the actual fighting began, he went to drink from the well and he was shot an arrow which hit and killed him.

When the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam and his Companions returned to Madinah Harrithah´s mother approached the prophet, dragging her feet. She had aged, her bones had become frail and her worry had become great. She was almost shattered due to the sorrow in her hearts.

She said: O Messenger of Allah, inform me about Harrithah; if he is in Paradise, I will be patient otherwise Allah will see what I will do.´´ She meant that she would wail, weep over him and lament his separation from her. He said to her: ´´Woe to you, don´t you understand?! There are eight levels of Paradise and your son has attained the highest Al-Firdaus.´´196

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.
