Example of a Mujahid (one who does Jihad) in Allah's Cause

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 52, Number 46]
Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi Allah Anhu): I heard Allah's Apostle (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) saying, "The example of a Mujahid in Allah's Cause-- and Allah knows better who really strives in His Cause----is like a person who fasts and prays continuously. Allah guarantees that He will admit the Mujahid in His Cause into Paradise if he is killed, otherwise He will return him to his home safely with rewards and war booty."



[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 52, Number 48]
Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi Allah Anhu): The Prophet Muhammad (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) said, "Whoever believes in Allah and His Apostle, offer prayer perfectly and fasts the month of Ramadan, will rightfully be granted Paradise by Allah, no matter whether he fights in Allah's Cause or remains in the land where he is born." The people said, "O Allah's Apostle ! Shall we acquaint the people with the is good news?" He said, "Paradise has one-hundred grades which Allah has reserved for the Mujahidin who fight in His Cause, and the distance between each of two grades is like the distance between the Heaven and the Earth. So, when you ask Allah (for something), ask for Al-firdaus which is the best and highest part of Paradise." (i.e. The sub-narrator added, "I think the Prophet also said, 'Above it (i.e. Al-Firdaus) is the Throne of Beneficent (i.e. Allah), and from it originate the rivers of Paradise.")

Quran: Surah An-Nahl verse 61

"And if Allah had destroyed men for their iniquity, He would not leave on the earth a single creature, but He respites them till an appointed time; so when their doom will come they shall not be able to delay (it) an hour nor can they bring (it) on (before its time)."


Quran 16:61

Allah knows what is in the Hearts

"Surely Allah knows what is in the hearts."   [3. Surah Aal-e-Imran : Ayah 119]


 "Say: Had you remained in your houses, those for whom slaughter was ordained would certainly have gone forth to the places where they would be slain, and that Allah might test what was in your breasts and that He might purge what was in your hearts; and Allah knows what is in the breasts."   [3. Surah Aal-e-Imran : Ayah 154]


"And He is Cognizant of what is in the hearts."      [27. Surah Al-Hadid : Ayah 6]


"He knows what is in the heavens and the earth, and He knows what you hide and what you manifest; and Allah is Cognizant of what is in the hearts."     [6. Surah At-Tagabun : Ayah 4]


"And conceal your word or manifest it; surely He is Cognizant of what is in the hearts. Does He not know, Who created? And He is the Knower of the subtleties, the Aware."   [67. Surah Al-Mulk : Ayah 13-14]
