Thread: No one gets it better than the people of Jannah (Paradise)
I begin with the Name of Allaah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
What defines the true worth of a believer is his mindfulness and fear of Allaah couple with sincerity.
If a Muslim purifies his heart from riya’ (show-off) and nifaq (hypocrisy) and strive for ikhlas (sincerity) and aligns his outward deeds with the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him), he will be from amongst the people of Jannah (Paradise)
Hence,
إن العبادات القلبية هي الأصل والعبادات البدنية تبع ومكملة لها؛ إذ إن العبادات القلبية روح العبادات البدنية.

Certainly, the ‘ibadah (worship done) by the heart (ikhlas) is the foundation while the ‘ibadah of the body parts only follows and completes it. Therefore, the ‘ibadah of the heart is the soul of the ‘ibadah of the body.
I share with you a hadith that will hopefully spur reach and everyone of us to strive to make it to Jannah.
إنَّ اللَّهَ تَبارَكَ وتَعالَى يقولُ لأهْلِ الجَنَّةِ: يا أهْلَ الجَنَّةِ؟ فيَقولونَ: لَبَّيْكَ رَبَّنا وسَعْدَيْكَ، فيَقولُ: هلْ رَضِيتُمْ؟ فيَقولونَ: وما لنا لا نَرْضَى وقدْ أعْطَيْتَنا ما لَمْ تُعْطِ أحَدًا مِن خَلْقِكَ، فيَقولُ: أنا أُعْطِيكُمْ أفْضَلَ مِن ذلكَ،
قالوا: يا رَبِّ، وأَيُّ شيءٍ أفْضَلُ مِن ذلكَ؟ فيَقولُ: أُحِلُّ علَيْكُم رِضْوانِي، فلا أسْخَطُ علَيْكُم بَعْدَهُ أبَدًا.
Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri: The Messenger of Allaah said,
Allaah will say to the people of Paradise, 'O the people of Paradise!'
They will say, 'Labbaik, O our Lord, and Sa`daik!'
Allaah will say to the people of Paradise, 'O the people of Paradise!'
They will say, 'Labbaik, O our Lord, and Sa`daik!'
Allaah will say, 'Are you pleased?
They will say, 'Why should we not be pleased since You have given us what You have not given to anyone of Your creation?'
They will say, 'Why should we not be pleased since You have given us what You have not given to anyone of Your creation?'
Allaah will say, 'I will give you something better than that.'
They will reply, 'O our Lord! And what is better than that?'
Allaah will say, 'I will bestow My pleasure and contentment upon you so that I will never be angry with you after for-ever.'
Sahih al-Bukhari 6549

May Allaah admit us into the Ultimate Gardens of Jannatul Firdaus where we will have an everlasting pleasure and absolute contentment.
