Hadith No: 186

Hadith: Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: Anyone who believes in Allah and His Messenger, establishes Salat, and fasts during Ramadan. Allah has taken it upon Himself to send him to Paradise; whether he was engaged in Jihad in the Path of Allah, or whether he remained in the land where he was born. The Sababah inquired: O Rasulullah! Should we not give this good news to the people? Rasulullah Sallallahu `alaihi wasallam replied: (No, because) there are one hundred ranks in Paradise which Allah has prepared for those who engage in Jihad in the Path of Allah and between two ranks there is a distance equal to the distance between the earth and the sky. So, when you ask Allah for Paradise, ask Him for Firdaus, for it is the best and highest part of Paradise, 'above it is the Throne of the Compassionate One and from it the rivers of Paradise flow. (Bukhari: 2790)
