Jews believed that Paradise was for them, while Hell was for others. The same belief is held by Muslims today, and they seek various justifications for it. All these beliefs have been constructed on false premises. There is no truth in any of them. The profound truth lies in this Quranic verse: "Man will attain only what he strives for." [Quran 53:39] All these beliefs are based on false premises; without a doubt, none of them have any basis.
Muslims are not afraid of Qayamat. They think that they pray, fast and perform hajj. Therefore Prophet Muhammad himself will intervene and will not let anyone go to hell. This belief makes them fearless of doomsday. What is your comment on this? Look, there's a truth in this. The Jews held the same belief before. And it's evident in this Hadith: "You will follow the ways of those who have gone before you, step by step, so much so that even if they entered the hole of a lizard, you would follow them." (Musnad Ahmad 10641) The Jews believed, "We are the children of Allah and we are His beloved." (5:18) They also said: "The Fire will not touch us except for a few days." (2:80) They believed that Paradise was for them, while Hell was for others. The same belief is held by Muslims today, and they seek various justifications for it. All these beliefs have been constructed on false premises. There is no truth in any of them. The profound truth lies in this Quranic verse: "Man will attain only what he strives for." [Quran 53:39] All these beliefs are based on false premises; without a doubt, none of them have any basis.
