The reality is that we don't know
which day is the day in which Allah
who Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala has written for us
to be freed from the hellfire. We don't
know which
prayer, which salah, which individual salah it may
be that in that salah, Allah has
decreed for us to be freed from the
hellfire and admitted us into paradise. We don't
even know
which particular
sajdah.
I mean, let's put the prayer aside for
a moment.
We don't know what particular sajda is the
sajda.
That our spirituality is at such a heightened
level
that Allahu Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala forgives our sins
and we're granted paradise and and there's precedent
for this. We know in the sunnah of
the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam that people were
freed from the hellfire for a single deed.
We know of the woman who gave water
to the dog that was panting and thirsty.
The woman climbed into the well, climbed down
to the well. She filled
her shoe with water. She put it in
her mouth, the shoe, because she had to
use her arms to climb up. She climbed
up out of the well and she gave
this thirsty
dog water, and there was so much sincerity
and rahma mercy
in this action of this woman that Allahu
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala forgave
a very sinful lifestyle of hers, and she
was admitted into paradise.
And that is why the prophet, sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam, continuously reminded us of deeds that
we think are small deeds.
Never belittle anything from goodness.
Even if it's you smiling in the face
of your brother, and we hear this all
the time. Right? It's sunnah to smile and
so on and so forth. But how many
of us truly, like, think about that smile
as a deed
that will free us from the hellfire?
