- Firdaus Heaven is the highest level of heaven in the afterlife. This place is certainly a dream for every Muslim so that one day they can inhabit the most glorious paradise.
Paradise is a place where troubles, disasters and all useless things will no longer exist. This highest heaven is described as a beautiful garden with rivers flowing between the trees.
Quoted from the book The Magnificence of Heaven by Abdullah Syafi'ie, the origin of the word Firdaus heaven is bustan which means garden. Paradise paradise is located just below Arsv or the throne of Allah, making Paradise a very special place.
Imam Ibnu Majah in Sunan Ibnu Majah Volume 3, explains the hadith relating to Paradise Paradise.
"From Suwaid bin Sa'id, from Hafsh bin Maisarah, from Zaid bin Aslam, from Atha bin Yasar, from Mu'adz bin Jabal ra, he said, "I once heard the Messenger of Allah say, 'Heaven consists of a hundred levels. Between each level the distance is like between heaven and earth. The highest heaven is Paradise Paradise, the most afdhal paradise is also Paradise, and the throne is above Paradise, from within it flow the rivers of paradise, if you ask Allah for paradise then ask for Paradise Paradise" (Saheeh: Silsilatul Ahaadiits ash-Shahiihah, No. 922).
Human Group Inhabiting Paradise Paradise
The special features of Paradise make Muslims compete to do good in the world in order to get the rewards of Paradise. Paradise Paradise is promised as a place full of happiness, enjoyment and incomparable blessings, so that it becomes the final destination dreamed of by every Muslim.
Allah SWT says in surah Al-Mu'minun verses 1-11, which means:
"Indeed, blessed are those who believe, (namely) those who are diligent in their prayers, and those who abstain from useless (actions and words), and those who pay zakat, and those who guard his genitals, except againsttheir wives or the slaves they own, then indeed they are not blameworthy in this matter. Whoever looks beyond that, then those are the people who go beyond the limits. And those who keep the mandates (which they bear) and their promises, and those who keep the prayers. These are the people who will inherit, (that is) who will inherit Paradise Paradise. They will abide therein forever."
The following is a summary of the 7 groups of residents of Paradise Paradise.
1. Someone who is dedicated to his prayers
Devotion in prayer is the characteristic of those who inhabit the paradise of Paradise. They are truly sincere and devout in carrying out their prayers, focusing their attention and thoughts completely on their relationship with Allah SWT.
Rasulullah SAW said: "Indeed, I want to order you to pray, then I want to go to the doors of your houses to order you to abandon all sins. Then I want to burn firewood which will be placed under your beds, then I want to order the male and female servants so that you remain solemn in prayer." (HR. Ahmad).
2. Someone who distances himself from useless actions
People who are able to distance themselves from useless actions are also one of the groups of people who will later inhabit Paradise. People like this prioritize activities that provide benefits and focus on worshiping Allah SWT.
3. Someone who pays Zakat
Paying zakat is an obligation for Muslims who can afford it. Those who make zakat an act of worship will get a place in Paradise as a reward for their concern for others and their obedience to Allah SWT.
4. Someone who guards his genitals
Protecting one's private parts in Islam is an obligation to maintain honor and protect oneself from behavior that damages morals and religious values. This can be done by controlling yourself and having a positive social environment and always inviting you to worship Allah.
5. Someone Who Holds His Eyes
Allah SWT gives His creatures the pleasure of seeing so we need to make the best use of this blessing. A person who is able to utilize the blessings of sight with something good and is able to maintain his sight is a group of people who are promised paradise.
6. Someone who maintains trust
Allah SWT will give great rewards and the reward of Paradise to someone who keeps their trust and is able to keep their promises. Therefore, if we are given a trust, then we must be able to maintain that trust.
7. Someone who keeps his prayers
The group of humans who will also enter Paradise are those who can maintain their prayers. What this means is being able to perform prayers on time with perfect and solemn movements.
Wallahu a'lam.
