And he was amazed so he went around the medina informing the people what he saw and the people were amazed with him as well. What is surprising in the Hadith that how could this person who died naturally enter the paradise first, before a Shaheed visa vie Allah? And I know we all know what special gifts Allah azza wa jal gives gives a Shaheed How can this person who died on his bed naturally enter the paradise before shaheed? And so some people would think you know, what's the big deal at the end of the day, they both entered the paradise. There's always a big deal about the one who comes first in something. You know, in school, the majority of the class passes the exam, but

00:02:49 --> 00:03:28

it's always about who came first.

He's the one who's interviewed, and he's the one who's asked and he's given a special earning and a rank among the people. So there's always something special about coming first in something. So he this man entered the paradise first the Sahaba see it as a big deal. So they ended up going going to law school allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and they narrated this dream unto him, when the the sallallahu alayhi wa sallam saw the amazement on their face. And he said to

00:03:28 --> 00:03:35

them, I mean he there Lika Tasha Boone, what are you surprised? What are you all amazed by?

00:03:36 --> 00:03:59

So they sit to him obviously how they this person enter before shade for Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said to them, Elisa could MacArthur hair that by the husana Didn't the one who died naturally? Live one more year after shaheed? They said yes. So then he said what are the raka Ramadan for Salah Kava Kava.

00:04:00 --> 00:04:47

And didn't he also during that one year that he lived extra? He witnessed the month of Ramadan and he prayed this and this amount of regard and such depth in his life more than the Shaheed they said yes, aerosol Hola, familia sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said from Ebay you know who Matt about to me Medina Sama, it will help. He said that the distance between him and the Shaheed is the distance between the heavens and the earth. That's the kind of rank this man earned in the Paradise because he lived one year more than his friend to witness Ramadan and to praise such and such amount of archived and shoot for Allah subhanho wa Taala when Hadith and it is in heaven measure or Emma Hola.

00:04:48 --> 00:05:00

00:05:00 --> 00:05:28

No, this is an opportunity that you may be elevated ranks with Allah subhanho wa taala.
