00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,430
Allah the Exalted said:

2
00:00:02,430 --> 00:00:20,429
“And of them (also) is he who saith: "Our Lord! Give unto us in the world that which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good, and guard us from the doom of Fire."” (2:201)

3
00:00:20,429 --> 00:00:31,460
“For them there is in store a goodly portion out of that which they have earned. Allah is swift at reckoning.” (2:202)

4
00:00:31,460 --> 00:00:35,520
On the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

5
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:40,579
The most frequent supplication of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was:

6
00:00:40,579 --> 00:00:43,649
"O Allah, grant us good in this world,

7
00:00:43,649 --> 00:00:45,649
and good in the Hereafter,

8
00:00:45,649 --> 00:00:48,649
and protect us from the torment of the Fire."

9
00:00:48,649 --> 00:00:51,939
Ibn Kathir (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

10
00:00:51,939 --> 00:00:56,030
"This supplication encompasses every good in this world

11
00:00:56,030 --> 00:00:58,030
and diverts every evil.

12
00:00:58,030 --> 00:01:03,100
Indeed, 'good in this world' includes every sought-after worldly matter,

13
00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:06,099
such as well-being, a spacious home,

14
00:01:06,099 --> 00:01:09,099
a good spouse, ample provision,

15
00:01:09,099 --> 00:01:12,099
beneficial knowledge, righteous deeds,

16
00:01:12,099 --> 00:01:16,159
a comfortable conveyance, and good praise.

17
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:18,159
As for 'good in the Hereafter,'

18
00:01:18,159 --> 00:01:21,159
the highest form of that is entering Paradise,

19
00:01:21,159 --> 00:01:25,159
along with its associated blessings, such as security from the Greatest Terror,

20
00:01:25,159 --> 00:01:27,159
ease in the reckoning,

21
00:01:27,159 --> 00:01:31,260
and other such righteous matters of the Hereafter.

22
00:01:31,260 --> 00:01:33,260
As for salvation from the Fire,

23
00:01:33,260 --> 00:01:37,260
it entails the facilitation of its means in this world,

24
00:01:37,260 --> 00:01:40,260
by avoiding forbidden matters and sins,

25
00:01:40,260 --> 00:01:43,260
and abandoning doubtful matters and the unlawful."
