More than Thirty reasons to enter Paradise from the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah

Introduction

All praise is due to Allah, we praise Him and seek His aid and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evils of our own souls and the wickedness of our deeds. He whom Allah guides, none can misguide, and he whom He misguides, none can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, alone, without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger. This is a message entitled (Thirty Reasons for Entering Paradise) in which I have collected a number of authentic verses and hadiths that mention deeds that are a reason by the grace of Allah for the one who does them to enter Paradise. However, this does not mean that these deeds guarantee that any person who does them will enter Paradise, regardless of his belief, because Paradise is only entered by a believer. If a disbeliever or polytheist does some or all of these deeds, they will not benefit him and will not enter Paradise, because Allah, the Most High, says:

وَلَقَدْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكَ لَئِنْ أَشْرَكْتَ لَيَحْبَطَنَّ عَمَلُكَ وَلَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ  ‎﴿٦٥﴾‏ 

And it was already revealed to you and to those before you that if you should associate [anything] with Allah, your work would surely become worthless, and you would surely be among the losers." [Az-Zumar: 65]

And Allah, the Most High, says about the disbelievers:

وَقَدِمْنَا إِلَىٰ مَا عَمِلُوا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ هَبَاءً مَّنثُورًا  ‎﴿٢٣﴾‏

 And We will regard what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed. [Al-Furqan: 23]

Therefore, Islam is the first condition necessary for the acceptance of any deed.

As for the second condition  that must accompany any deed in order for it to be acceptable to Allah, the Most High, is sincerity in the deed for the sake of Allah, the Most High, meaning that the one who does the deed must intend it for the sake of Allah, the Most High, without associating any other creature with him in his intention. The evidence is the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Allah does not accept any action except that which is sincere and done for His sake.” [Narrated by al-Nasa’i, Saheeh al-Jami’ 1856]

قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: إن الله تعالى لا يقبل من العمل إلا ما كان خالصا وابتغي به وجهه [ رواه النسائي ، صحيح الجامع 1856]

As for the third condition  for the acceptance of an action, it is following the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), so we have limited ourselves in this message to the authentic hadeeths that are proven from the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

وَمَن يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَالصِّدِّيقِينَ وَالشُّهَدَاءِ وَالصَّالِحِينَ  ۚ وَحَسُنَ أُولَٰئِكَ رَفِيقًا ‎﴿٦٩﴾‏

And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger - those will be with the ones upon whom Allah has bestowed favor of the prophets, the steadfast affirmers of truth, the martyrs and the righteous. And excellent are those as companions. Surah An-Nisa :69

  إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الَّذِينَ إِذَا ذُكِرَ اللَّهُ وَجِلَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ

 . 1 آمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِن رَّبِّهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ كُلٌّ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّن رُّسُلِهِ وَقَالُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ ‎﴿البقرة: ٢٨٥﴾‏

The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], "We make no distinction between any of His messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination." (Surah Al Baqara verse:285)

. 2  لَّا يَتَّخِذِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاءَ مِن دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ فَلَيْسَ مِنَ اللَّهِ فِي شَيْءٍ إِلَّا أَن تَتَّقُوا مِنْهُمْ تُقَاةً وَيُحَذِّرُكُمُ اللَّهُ نَفْسَهُ وَإِلَى اللَّهِ الْمَصِيرُ ‎﴿آل عمران: ٢٨﴾‏

Let not believerstake disbelievers as allies rather than believers. And whoever [of you] does that has nothing with Allah, except when taking precaution against them in prudence. And Allah warns you of Himself, and to Allah is the [final] destination. (Surah Al Imran verse:28)
