TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING THE REALITY OF JANNAH (THE PARADISE)

This Book is evidenced based from authentic sources Al-Bukhari recorded from Sa`id bin Jubayr that Ibn ” Abbas said about AlKawthar, “It is the good which Allah gave to him (the Prophet).”

Abu Bishr said, “I said to Sa’id bin Jubayr, ‘Verily, people are claiming that it is a river in Paradise.” Said replied, `The river which is in Paradise is part of the goodness which Allah gave him.”

Al-Bukhari also recorded from Sa’ id bin Jubayr that Ibn “Abbas said, “Al-Kawthar is the abundant goodness.” This explanation includes the river and other things as well. Because the word Al-Kawthar comes from the word Kathrah (abundance) and it (Al-Kawthar) linguistically means an abundance of goodness.

So from this goodness is the river Imam Ahmad recorded from Ibn `Umar that the Messenger of Allah said: (Al-Kawthar is a river in Paradise whose banks are of gold and it runs over pearls. Its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey.) This Hadith was recorded in this manner by At-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, Ibn Abi Hatim and Ibn Jarir.

At-Tirmidhi said, “Hasan Sahih.” Then Allah says: (Therefore turn in prayer to your Lord and sacrifice) meaning, “just as We have given you the abundant goodness in this life and the Hereafter — and from that is the river that has been described previously -then make your obligatory and optional prayer, and your sacrifice (of animals) solely and sincerely for your Lord.

Worship Him alone and do not associate any partner with him. And sacrifice pronouncing His Name alone, without ascribing any partner to Him.’ This is as Allah says,
