THE INHABITANTS OF PARADISE AND HELL

|H 619

“There was a debate between Paradise and Hell. Hell said, „I shall
encompass the tyrants and the arrogant.‟ Paradise said, „My
inhabitants will be the weak among the people and the needy.‟ Allah
decided between them, saying: „You are Paradise, My Mercy.

Through you I will have mercy on whomsoever I will; and you are
Hell, My punishment, through you I will punish whosoever I will. It is
for Me to fill both of you.‟"

Muslim with a chain up to Abu Sa'id Khudri who related that the Prophet, praise and
peace be upon him, said this.
