Salam sister laila,

Thank you for your previous answer to my question. Insh'allah i will buy a computer in the future and will learn from you scholers. At the moment i haven't got a computer. i use the net cafe.

My question to you this time is, can you also expound and explain when the Prophet said in a hadeeth:

The one that leave's debating and arguing....... i guarenty him paradise.

Can you expound and explain

Salam Ibrar

As Saalamu Alaikoum,

Praise be to Allah.

The Prophet(saw) has advised us in many Hadiths to avoid the dangers of the tongue:

The Prophet(saaw) said, "He who abandons lying, having been false, will have a castle built for him just within paradise. He who abandons disputing having been speaking the truth, will have one built for him in the middle of paradise. He whose character is good will have one built in the highest part of it." [Tirmidhi transmitted it saying it is a hasan tradition]

In regards to the meaning of "disputing having been speaking the truth," refers to avoiding debating Islam after the proofs have been given to you. Too many Muslim will debate Islam based on their Mis interpretations. Once the evidences (daleel) has been presented one should not dispute them...unfortunately many still do.

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
