The rooms in the Houses of Paradise

[young@muslim]

Jabir Ibn Abdullah said that they were once sitting with the Prophet
when he asked them, `Shall I tell you about the rooms in the houses of
Paradise?'

They replied, `O yes, Prophet of Allah, you are dearer to us than our
fathers and our mothers'

He said, `Allah the Exalted has created the rooms of Paradise from all
kinds of jewels. You can see them from the outside just as you can see
them from the inside. They contain a variety of pleasures that no eye
has ever seen; nor any ear has ever heard; nor has ever occurred to
the hearts of any human being'

Jabir asked, `Who occupies these rooms, O Prophet of Allah?'

He said, `It is for those who propagate salutations and greetings,
offer food, fast frequently and pray at night while others are fast
asleep'

Jabir asked, `And who is steadfast enough to tolerate all of these
things O Prophet of Allah?'

He replied, `My followers tolerate that Jabir: Those who meet a fellow
and greet him has propagated greetings; those who fed their wives and
children until they are satisfied is considered to have offered food;
those who fast the month of Ramadan and another three days each month
are considered to have fasted frequently; and those who perfom the
night prayers as well as the dawn prayers in a group is considered to
have performed prayers whilst other people are asleep'
