COURSE OVERVIEW
In this course, Dr. Khurram Khan is taking us on a marvellous journey with the 10 luckiest people to walk the surface of the earth. No one can ever deny the fact that the greatest and most profound achievement of this world is to be admitted to Jannah (Paradise).
From the commencement of life on earth till this day and generations to come, the only hope that we as Muslims are optimistic about is the belief that someday all our ups and downs shall come to an end and we will be rewarded bountifully in Paradise. With the grace of Allah, some among the Muslim ummah have known of their fate that their final abode will be Jannah. These 10 were mentioned in some of the Prophet’s Ahadith such as the following:
Narrated ‘Abdur-Rahman ibn ‘Awf that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Abu Bakr is in Paradise, ‘Umar is in Paradise, ‘Uthman is in Paradise, `’Ali is in Paradise, Talhah is in Paradise, Az-Zubair is in Paradise, ‘Abdur-Rahman ibn ‘Awf is in Paradise, Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas is in Paradise, Sa’id ibn Zaid is in Paradise, and Abu ‘Ubaidah ibn Al-Jarrah is in Paradise.” (Jami’ at-Tirmidhi 3747: Book 49, Hadith 144)
Also, narrated ‘Abdullah ibn Zalim Al-Mazini that Sa’id ibn Zaid ibn ‘Amr ibn Nufail said: “‘I bear witness for nine people, that they are in Paradise, and if I were to bear witness for a tenth, I would not be sinful.’
It was said: ‘How is that?’
He said: ‘We were with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at (mount) Hiraa’ when he said, ‘Be firm, Hiraa’! There is not upon you any but a Prophet, or a Siddiq, or a martyr.’
It was said: ‘And who were they?’
He said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), Abu Bakr, ‘Umar, ‘Uthman, ‘Ali, Talhah, Az-Zubair, Sa’d, and ‘Abdur-Rahman ibn ‘Awf.’
It was said: ‘And who is the tenth?’
He said: ‘Me.’” (Jami’ at-Tirmidhi 3757: Book 49, Hadith 154)
With that in mind, Dr. Khurram Khan is taking us on a faith-based journey with the 10 luckiest people to walk the surface of the earth.
