And then he he is directed further towards
his own Jannah. Jannah means a garden. You
have a garden as we said, minimum
garden is not mentioned by is not,
measured by meters or kilometers.
You see when the Hadith speaks of
mention of distance
by travel.
Distance.
Listen to this very carefully, some very very
important point.
The distance,
we know it as meters and kilometers.
The Prophet
1400 years ago,
he used
a different measurement to describe distance. What was
that?
Time.
He used time to describe
distance.
If I were to ask you who is
the first person to use time to describe
distance, you have to say Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam.
Today, scientists use time to describe distance.
What is a light year?
So they say, it's 15 light years away,
4 light years away. SubhanAllah.
The distance,
the speed of light
for 4 whole years, that is called 4
light years.
Who started that? Muhammad salallahu alaihi wa sallam.
Where did he get it from? Why?
Revelation.
So don't think these people are a big
deal. They came up with something that was
already there. But people said, how is this
described as 2000 years of distance?
It says, 2000 years. Didn't I say moments
ago? A traveler would travel 2000 years. That's
the distance of the smallest garden.
Today, they actually tell you, yes, years can
the term year can actually
you be used to measure distance. Allahu Akbar.
A few years ago it would be foolish.
If I told you for example,
you know, how high is that? And you
say 3 seconds.
Allahu will ask.
You'd be foolish. People would say, what are
you talking about? Badwallahi,
we need to know this.
It is Islam that came up with the
use
of time to measure distance, Allahu Akbar, subhanAllah.
And this is for paradise more than anything
else. And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala speaks of
this. So this man, when he gets to
his own garden,
he sees the pathway leading to it full
of pebbles of gold and silver
and different types of pearls and and rubies
and so on and he the door is
open automatically
and he sees even a bigger light and
that happens to be the gatekeeper of his
own garden.
And as he enters,
he has a peep at what's going on,
1 foot in, 1 foot out and he
is waiting And he's looking, and he's seeing.
500 years passed and he's still watching. Wallahu
Akbar.
Wow. This is mine. Like we said, you
neither hungry nor you fool, but he's just
watching.
Because if it was us, you know, lunchtime
we had to go.
If it was the dunya.
So he's looking until he is told, are
you not going to come in? And who's
telling him that? The who?
You're not going to come in? SubhanAllah. We
ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to grant us
this Jannah. Allah will be working towards it.
And we ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to
bless us in every single way.
