People who Recited the Shahaadah will Leave Jahannam | (The History of islam part-8)
Hadhrat Abu Moosa Ash'ari ( Radi allahu anhu ) narrates that Rasulullaah (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said, "When
the people of Jahannam will get together, amongst them will also be those who faced
the Qibla (Muslims). The Kuffaar will then say to the Muslims, 'Were you
people not Muslims?' When the
Muslims reply in the affirmative, the Kuffaar will
ridicule, 'Then of what use was
your Islaam when you have ended up with us
here in the fire?' The Muslims
will reply, 'We were detained because of the sins
that we committed.' When Allaah
hears what the Kuffaar have to say, He will
issue orders that all those who
faced the Qibla should be removed from
Jahannam. When the Kuffaar
remaining behind in Jahannam see this, they will
lament, 'If only we had been
Muslims so that we could leave just as they have
left."' Rasulullaah (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) then recited:
Alif Laam Raa (OnlyAllaah knows the meaning of these letters). These
are the verses of the Book and the clear
Qur'aan. Many a time the
Kuffaar will wish that they had been
Muslims. {Surah Hijr, verses 1,2)
Hadhrat Anas ( Radi allahu anhu ) narrates that Rasulullaah (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said,
"When some believers in (the Kalimah) 'Laa Ilaaha Illallaah' will enter
Jahannam because of their sins, the worshippers of (the idols) Laat and Uzza
will ridicule them saying, 'Of what
use was your recitation of 'Laa
llaaha Illallaah' when you are with us in Jahannam.' Allaah will then get angry
for their part. He will remove the Muslims from Jahannam and put them in the
river of life where their burns will be healed just as the moon recovers from
its eclipse. They will then enter Jannah where they will be called 'the people
from Jahannam, Another narration of Tabraeni reports that because of the
blackness on their faces, they will be called 'the people from
Jahannam'. They will then plead to Allaah saying, "O Rabb! Remove
this name from us." Allaah will then command them to bath in a river in
Jannah, after which the name will be removed from them (because the blackness will
be removed.
