Ahl al-Bayt's (A.S.)
Status on the Day of Resurrection
The Messenger of Allah
(S.A.W.) said: The first who will join me by the Hawd of Kawthar are my
Ahl al-Bayt and those of my Ummah who love me.
Al-Imam Ali (A.S.): The Holy Prophet (S.A.W.) informed me that among the
first who will enter the Paradise are me along with Fatima (A.S.) al-Hasan
(A.S.), and al-Husayn(A.S.). I asked, O Rasul Allah! How about my
followers and lovers? He replied: They will follow you into the
Paradise.
The Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.) said: There is a place in the Paradise
called Wasilah (means); whenever you ask Allah for something ask for
Wasilah for me too. He was asked: O Rasu Allah! Who will be with you
there? He replied: Ali (A.S.), Fatima (A.S.), al-Hasan (A.S.), and al-Husayn
(A.S.)
The Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.) said: The center of Paradise will belong
to me and to my Ahl al-Bayt.
71. Hudayfah said: My mother asked me: How long is it that you have not
seen the Hoy Prophet (S.A.W.)? I told her from such and such a time. She
reproached me and called me names.
I said: Let me go to the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.) to perform the evening
prayer with him, and I will not leave him until he ask Allah forgiveness
for you and me. Hudayfah goes on saying: I took audience with his
Holiness (S.A.W.) and performed evening prayer with him, and the Holy
Prophet (S.A.W.) performed the night prayer too. The Holy Prophet (S.A.W),
then, returned and on his way someone ran into him, whispered something
to him and went away. I followed His Holiness (S.A.W.) and when he heard
me he asked: Who are you? I said: Hudayfah. He asked: What do you want?
I told him the story. Then His Holiness (S.A.W.) said: May Allah forgive
you and your mother. Then added: Did you see the one who ran into me a
while ago? I said: Yes. He said: He was an angel who had not descended
on earth before tonight, and who had asked Allah to send greetings to me
and give me the glad tidings that al-Hasan (A.S.)and al-Husayn (A.S.)
are the princes of the youth of Paradise and Fatima (A.S.) is the lady
of the ladies of Paradise; May Allah be pleased with them.
