Want LIGHT in your grave?
And LIGHT when you cross the Siraat....that thin, slippery, scary Bridge over Hellfire?
Then read the following adhkaar every day, after every prayer and at bedtime.
🍃 Ibn Omar radhi Allaahu anhumaa reported:
"Whoever says
(1)following every prayer and
(2) when he goes to bed,
اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيرًا عَدَدَ الشَّفْعِ ،وَالْوِتْرِ، وَكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ الطَّيِّبَاتِ الْمُبَارَكَاتِ ،
‘Allaahu akbaru kabeeraa ‘adad ash-shaf‘i wa’l-witr, wa kalimaat Allaah at-taammaati at-tayyibaati al-mubaarakaat.
(Allaah is Most Great, equal to the number of the even and the odd, and (equal to the number of) the blessed, pure, perfect words of Allaah)’
THREE times
and
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّه
عَدَدَ الشَّفْعِ ،وَالْوِتْرِ، وَكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ الطَّيِّبَاتِ الْمُبَارَكَاتِ
‘Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah ‘adad ash-shaf‘i wa’l-witr, wa kalimaat Allaah at-taammaati at-tayyibaati al-mubaarakaat.
(there is no deity worthy of worship but Allaah equal to the number of the even and the odd, and (equal to the number of) the blessed, pure, perfect words of Allaah)
the same number of times,
(THREE times)
they will be light for him in his grave, and light on the 'JISR' (bridge between Jannah and Jahannum), and light on the Siraat (bridge over Hell), until they admit him to Paradise, or until he enters Paradise.”
(Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 29256
with saheeh isnaad)
Allaahu Akbar!
Such is the Mercy of ar-Rahmaan!
He keeps giving us chances upon chances to help us in our times of need!
And what bigger NEED than to have LIGHT in the dark grave?!
And LIGHT at the time of crossing the Siraat, the bridge over Hellfire, when DARK will be darker than darkness?!
May Allaah protect us.
🔺What is 'Jisr'?
When the believers will have crossed the Siraat, the bridge over Hellfire, there will be ANOTHER bridge that they will have to cross.
That's the bridge where the believers will settle the scores that were outstanding among them in this world.... any disputes, any unfairness, any oppression,
ANY THING wrong that you did to others....
That's ‘Jisr’, also called al-Qantarah.
And they will not be allowed to enter Jannah until all the scores are settled.
🍃The Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam said:
“When the believers have been saved from the Fire, they will be detained at a bridge between Paradise and Hell, and they will settle the scores that arose among them in this world until, when they have been purified and cleansed, permission will be given to them to enter Paradise.” (al-Bukhaari 2440)
So read this beautiful dhikr three times after every Fardh Salaah and at bedtime.
May Allaah give us light in our graves, light at the time of crossing the Siraat and light at the time of Jisr.
May Allaah guide us with this light in this dunya as well.
Ameen.
