11) The Day of Judgment
The Day of Judgment is the final day of life for the universe,
as predetermined by Allah (swt). Everyone will be called to
account on the Day of Judgment. No one will return to Earth
in a second body, for all of the souls of everyone who has ever
lived, from the time of Prophet Adam (as) right up until the
Day of Judgment, were created beforehand. No soul will
return to Earth with a different body.
12) Appreciating Those Given the Glad Tidings of
Paradise
Any inappropriate word spoken against a Companion of the
Prophet (saas) who received the glad tidings of Paradise is not
in line with the respect due to them and is a great sin toward
those great individuals. These Companions are:
u Abu Bakr (ra)
u Umar (ra)
u Uthman (ra)
u Ali (ra)
u Talha ibn Ubaydullah (ra)
u Zubayr ibn Awwam (ra)
u Sa‘d ibn Abi Waqqas (ra)
u Sa‘id ibn Zayd (ra)
u Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf (ra), and
u Abu Ubaydah ibn Jarrah (ra).
The history of Islam’s early days is full of these superior indi-
viduals’ heroism. The Messenger of Allah (saas) praised these
Muslims in his hadiths.
One of the common features of heretical sects is their attack
on some of the Companions given the glad tidings of Paradise.
There is no room for such views among the Ahl al-Sunnah.
