Shortcuts toward Jannah (Paradise)


This life is temporary not the permanent. The next life after this life is permanent which will never end. In the next life after this life the destination will be Paradise or Hell. If our destination will be jannah we are succeeded and if our destination will be Hell them there is nothing except Alas!  It’s in the nature of the man that whenever he thinks about destination he searches for the short cuts. There are some actions which are told in Quran E Hakeem and Ahadith that can lead man toward jannah or make the way easy toward jannah.
·         In Quran Allah says that :-

“If you abstain from the major (sins) that you are being forbidden, We will acquit you of your (minor) sins and allow you (into Paradise) a felicitous entry.”

When we avoid the major sins we make ourselves able to get a place in Paradise. Hazrat Mohammad (PBUH) said that:-
“Avoid the seven great destructive sins." They (the people) asked, "O Allah's Messenger! What are they?" He(SAW) said, "To join partners in worship with Allah; to practice sorcery: to kill the life which Allah has forbidden except for a just cause (according to islamic law); to eat up usury (Riba), to eat up the property of an orphan; to give one's back to the enemy and fleeing from the battlefield at the time of fighting and to accuse chaste women who never even think of anything touching chastity and are good believers." (Bukhari)

·         The person who recites Ayt Ul kursi after the Fard Namaz will b entered in Jannah after his death.

·         The person who builds a Mosque for the happiness of Allah will be entered in Paradise as it is said in Ahadith that:-
Whoever builds a masjid seeking by it the Pleasure of Allah, Allah will build for him a similar place in Jannah.”
(Bukhari )

·        The Person who offers the Fajar and Asra’s prayer in first time will be entered in Jannah as it is said in Hadith that:-
“ Whoever prays the two cool prayers (Asr and Fajr) will enter Jannah.”
(Bukhari)

·        The person who will walk for the search of knowledge Allah will make easy for him him way toward jannah. This hadith is mentioned in Bukhari’s Book as:-

“Whoever treads a path in search of knowledge, Allah will make easy for him the path to Jannah.”
·        To follow the Sunahs is  also a shor cut toward jannah. There are too many Sunnahs regarding out daily actions like eating, drinking, wearing the cloths, walking and so on. When we follow the Sunnahs of beloved prophet of Allah becomes happy and He makes the way easy toward  Jannah.
·        The person who asks for Jannah from Allah Almighty 3 times Jannah itself prays for that person and he will be entered in Jannah. It is mention in hadith in this way that:-
“Whoever asks Allah for Jannah three times, Jannah will say: “O Allah, enter him into Jannah.”
(Thirmidi)

·         The person who feels proud and happy as a Muslim Allah will enter him in jannah as it is mentioned in Hadith that:-
The person who  says: “I am pleased with Allah as my Rabb, and with Islam as my Deen, and with Muhammad (sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam) as my Prophet, Jannah would be mandatory for him.”                                             (Abu Dawud)


So here are some short cuts which make the way easy toward jannah. Although these deeds look ordinary but Allah is most merciful and He gives the extraordinary rewards of ordinary deeds. May Allah give us courage to follow these short cuts and enter us in to jannah otherwise we will be in worst condition. May Allah save us from the fire of hell (amen)

Some very important Sunnahs are described above which are very easy and every one can practice these Sunnahs easily. It is our bad luck that we think it is hard. By following these Sunnahs we can get many benefits regarding health and social life. It is the matter of realization. If we have true love in our heart for Beloved prophet (PBUH) we will follow the Sunnahs. It is not only the matter of saying we must prove it by practicing the Sunnahs. May Allah give us the courage to show the true love for Beloved Prophet (PBUH) (AMEEN)

An ideal way to live Life is Quranic way of life

Islam is a best way of life. It is a complete code of life. It tells us the principles to live an ideal life. By following the Quranic way of life one can live an ideal life. How one can live a perfect and ideal life? It is the very basic question. If someone does not ask this question he/she at least thinks about this question. Quran tells us about everything and every issue regarding life. No issue is left without discussion in Quran. Quran tells us about how to live a personal or social life in successful manners. Quran tells us about the general livings. This book of wisdom tells those lessons which apply in general life.

Some lessons for general life

·         To give respect and honour to all human beings is the general lesson which Quran tells. When you will show respect t others then the other people will also show respect to that person and in this way the life will become perfect. As in Quran it is said that:-


“Lo! We have honored Adam’s progeny, borne them on the land and the sea, provided them with good things and preferred them greatly over many of those We created”

·         To say truth is the basic and fundamental lesson of Quran to live an ideal life. To talk straight and to the point is very important to live a perfect life. When someone speaks truth he gets respect and honour in the eyes of people and Allah likes him. So the person who says truth become successful in this life and in the next life too.   In Quran it is said that:-


“Believers! Fear Allah and say words aimed at the truth”

·         Quran says to talk in a soft and polite manner. When you talk to someone your voive should be low. As it is said in Sura E Luqman that:-


“Be modest in your walk, and lower your voice. Surely, the most unpleasant of voices is the voice of the donkeys.”

·         Quran tells to speak in well civilized manners. The language which we should speak in society should be common language.
·         To strive for goodness gives the guarantee of successful life in this world and the next life.  In Quran it is told that the most fundamental duty of a Muslim is to be good and to spread the goodness. In Quran it is said that:-

“And those who strived in Us, We shall surely guide them to Our ways.Verily, Allah is with those who do things well.”

·         To make the life easier for the others is a best way to live a perfect life. It is major problem of this world that we think only about our life but we don’t think about the others life. We should try to live an ideal life by helping others. When we will try to help others Allah will help us and this way we will live an ideal life.

“Seek the life to come by means of what God has granted you, but do not neglect your rightful share in this world. Do good to others as God has done good to you.”

·         The main purpose of life in Islam is to worship Allah Almighty. It is mention in Quran. So if we don’t fulfill this aim our life is totally wasted. To live a perfect and ideal life it is important to worship Allah Almighty whole heartedly.

“And I have not created the Jinn and mankind but that they should worship Me.”

·         To have a strong believe in Allah is the major lesson which Quran taught to us and it is the way to live a perfect life. In Quran it is said that:-


“Even so, there are some who choose to worship others besides God as rivals to Him, loving them with love due to God, but the believers have greater love for God.”



So some general points are discussed above which are mentioned in Quran and by following these points one can live a perfect and ideal life.  O’Allah! Show us the right and Quranic way of life to live an ideal life (amen).
