assalam alaikum wa rahmit Allahi wa barakatu

Volume 8, number 561, bukhari:

Narrated Sahl: The Prophet (sas) said, " The people of Paradise will see the Ghuraf (special abodes) in paradise as you see a star in the sky." Abu Sa'id added: " As you see a glittering star in the eastern horizon and the western horizon."

I wanted to know how do you achieve getting one of these special abodes?

Also,

Volume 8, number 559, Bukhari:

Narrated Abu Huraira(ra): The Prophet(sas) said, " The width between the two shoulders of a Kafir(disbeleiver) will be equal to the distance covered by a fast rider in three days."

Does this refer to the Kafiroon in Hell?

Also,

a couple of days ago i asked the question on the board about the ayat from the glorious Qur'an, I kind of stated it wrong, what I meant was, the people being tormented in the grave, would they have the same sense of time in the grave like the beleivers, i hope you understand what i am trying to say.

May Allah Bless You
Jazak Allah Khairun
Assalam Alaikum wa Rahmit Allahi wa Barakatu

As Salaamu Alaikoum,

Praise be to Allah.

In regards to the first hadith, this is a hadith telling what is to be expected of those whom enter into Paradise. Some of the rewards they will have which in this case is they will be allowed to see the different gardens or levels of paradise. To see this you have to be a person who enters into paradise. How to become a person who enters paradise you do so by living your life as a believing Muslim obeying all of Allahs commands and seeking his forgiveness and by accumalating as many good deeds as possible in this life.

The second Hadith refers to hell yes.

In regards to the last question..time in the hereafter is unknown to us. It is not the time we know of in this life and that time is the same for all in the hereafter.

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
