17. Quran verse
and the related hadith:
السلام عليكم
ورحمة الله وبركاتة
بِسْمِ
ٱللَّٰهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِٱلرَّحِيمِ
To each [category]
We extend - to these and to those - from the gift of your Lord. And never has
the gift of your Lord been restricted. [Al Quran,17:20]
On each meaning, on each of the two groups, those who desire this world and those who desire the Hereafter, We bestow what they want from the bounties of your Lord.
He is the One Who is in control of all things, and He is never unjust. He gives to each what he deserves, whether it is eternal happiness or doom. His decree is unstoppable; no one can withhold what He gives or change what He wants. Allah says: And the bounties of your Lord can never be forbidden, decrease and be prevented ".
In this world, so that some are rich and some are poor, and others are in between; some are beautiful, some are ugly and others are in between; some die young while others live to a great age, and some die in between. The differences between them in the Hereafter will be greater than the differences between them in this world.
Paradise has different levels. The distance between each level can be vast, likened to the distance between the earth and the sky.
Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (RA): The Prophet (SAW) said, "The people of Paradise will look at the dwellers of the lofty mansions (i.e. a superior place in Paradise) in the same way as one looks at a brilliant star far away in the East or in the West on the horizon; all that is because of their superiority over one another (in rewards)." On that the people said, "O Allah's Messenger (SAW)! Are these lofty mansions for the prophets which nobody else can reach? The Prophet (SAW) replied," No! "By Allah in whose Hands my life is, these are for the men who believed in Allah and also believed in the Apostles." [Sahih al-Bukhari, 3256]
Allah says:and verily, the Hereafter will be greater in degrees and greater in preferment.
الحمدلله
