SEVEN TYPES OF PEOPLE WHO WILL BE PROTECTED IN THE SHADE OF MERCY

377

“There will be seven (types of people) who will be protected in the shade of the Mercy of Allah on the Day of Judgement; there being no other shade except His Mercy.

(They are:) A just ruler. A youth who occupied himself worshiping Allah, the Mighty, the Glorified. A person who loved another for the sake of Allah; meeting together for His sake and then parted for His sake. A person who is enticed by a beautiful, charming woman but declines saying: ‘I fear Allah.’ A person whose heart is attached to the mosque. A person who spends secretly in charity, so that his left hand does not know what his right hand spends. A person who remembers Allah when he is alone so that his eyes overflow with tears.”

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
