Good deal huh?
I heard about this in an article I read, and it seemed over the top to me so I looked it up and got this:
"Whoever reads the Qur’an and memorises it, while he regards what it makes lawful as lawful and its unlawful as forbidden (i.e. he practices according to it), Allah Ta’ala will admit him into Jannah and will accept his intercession on behalf of ten such persons of his family who were doomed to the fire of Jahannum" (Tirmidhi)
Freaking sweet. How much better would you feel when you're struggling over all those close friends and family that are really not walking the righteous path if you knew that you could give them a free pass in the end? I mean, anyone. Like, you could feel bad for Hitler and he'd come on in. The original thing I read basically said "free pass", but I wonder if intercession is more like you can make suggestions and they can still be rejected? And would you feel guilty if, for instance, you gave a free pass to your dad and mom but not your sister? Anyways...
