What is Paradise

Worth To You?
 Disclaimer
 All numbers in this presentation are for
comparative use and reference only.
 These numbers are not actual. Use as a
guide to select deeds.
 Only Allah knows & gives the actual
rewards of any deed.
Take Advantage…
 We work very hard to achieve for this worldly life.
 We need to work very hard for the eternal life as well.
 If you live 120 years, 30-40 years = Sleep,
40-50 years = Work, worry, etc.
Only 30-40 years to enjoy if you are not sick.
 The Day of Judgment itself is 50,000 years.
Your 120 years life = 3.4 minutes,
your comfort life = 1 minute
 If it is so difficult to take care of worldly affairs, how
smart should you be for the life hereafter?
 The Riches of This World
Worldly Asset = Earnings - Expenses/Loss
 You lose asset ownership as soon as you die.
 You give account for every single cent.
 A poor person will enter heaven 40 years AHEAD
of a rich person with similar good deeds. (Meshkat)
 The more worldly assets you have, the stricter
accounting you will have on the Day of Judgment.
 If your assets are used on unislamic things even
after you leave, you are held responsible.
The reverse is also true.

Asset Accumulation
 Assets can be accumulated by various Deeds.
 Beyond compulsory actions, be selective when
choosing any deed; pick which gives
MAXIMUM rewards.
 Hereafter - No Limits
 People of heaven will feel sorry for the time
spent in this world without any Deed. (Time
wasted). (Tabarani)

“I didn’t see the speed limit sign.” You are expected
to know the rules before you drive.
 Dealing with Allah must be taken seriously. You
can’t fool Him, by-pass Him, avoid Him. You will
face Him sooner or later. Check and test here now.
 STOP
#2

Second Stop
 Avoid those conditions, which Allah and
Rasul ( ) said that if anyone does such act,
s/he will NEVER enter heaven; hell fire is a
MUST for him/her.
 If you fall into these categories, your good
deeds can’t help and will not be counted.
 Details are in the Book.
 STOP
#3
Third Stop
 Major Sins
 “If you avoid the major sins, which you are forbidden to
do, We shall remit from you your (minor) sins, and

 *Hajj: ~1,000-2,000 (first time), 200-300 (later times)
 *Zakat: ~ 200-500/year
* These are compulsory regardless of price tag.

Virtues of Da’wah
 Convey from me even if it be a single verse. (Bukhari)
 One Morning or Evening in the path of Allah is better
than the World and all that it contains. (Bukhari)
 Headache in the path of Allah forgives all past sins.
(Tabarani)
 Lailatul Qadr (LQ) =1,000 months of good deeds. In
Makka it is 100,000 times increased = 100,000,000
months of good deeds = 8.3 million years.
A person who goes for Da’wah for a short time
gets more than 8.3 million years of good deeds. (Ibne-
Hibban)
 You don’t have to wait for Ramadan to find LQ or go to
Makka to get more. You can get more rewards throughout
the year from anywhere simply by going for Da’wah.
No one can beat that price!!!
Best Strategy for Hereafter
 Engage in Da’wah most of the time. (Highest rewards).
 Parallel Processing: You can do many things at the same
time, more Barakat. People use only 5% of their
brainpower. 95% is sitting idle. You can do many things
more than what you actually do. Make your own package.
 Look at the activities of Rasul ( ) during his 23 years…
Mind has unlimited potential. There is always room for
improvement.
 Intentions: You can make lots of Intentions on good
deeds, ponder on how you can participate in Da’wah, help
Muslims. This was the fikr & concern of Rasulullah ( )
all the time.
 Prepare: If you have nothing to do, then exercise. Don’t
oversleep, overeat or be a couch potato. Get prepared. The
Sahabas used to raise horses/camels to use for Jihad.
 How to Avoid Bankruptcy
in The Life Hereafter
 You can file bankruptcy and take shelter in this life.
You can not hide from creditors on
the Day of Judgment. Your lips will be sealed. All
your body parts will speak to give witness. You have
to pay with good deeds. Avoid big disasters in
Hereafter……..
 Stop at Stop-1, 2, and 3, get checked, get clearance.
 Build assets such as involve in Da’wah, Sadqa-e-Jaria.
 Ask/Beg/Pay to those whose rights you have violated.
It is much cheaper to compensate in this world than
hereafter.
Clear All Debt in This World,
Not in The Hereafter

25 200,000 $8
50 500,000 $20
75 850,000 $34
100 1,200,000 $48
How To Play It Safe
 Repent: Cry blood for all past sins. Rasul ( ) used to repent
100 times/day. (Muslim). How about you?
 Get out of Haram: Haram has no boundaries.
Don’t assume that it is OK to avoid haram mixed up
business but it is OK to use mixed up funds for Islamic
causes. No good deeds are accepted. Don’t be a loser.
 People at the Border (50/50): Good Deeds ~ Sins.
Always do more than minimum required…
Add Nafl salat before & after salat, read Quran daily, give
Sadaqa, go for Da’wah, help a Muslim, etc. Do extra.
 Protect your Hereafter constantly. Saitan works 24 hours to
destroy your assets by silently luring you to major sins.
Either you are building or destroying your assets at any
given time. A Momen is always careful & vigilant.
How to Get Sins Converted
Into Good Deeds
“Those who repent and believe, and do righteous
deeds, Allah will exchange your sins with good
deeds.” (Al-Furqan:70).

You can do it in this world, not hereafter. Try to

perform those good Deeds now.
