Answer:

Who enters heaven without accounting?

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Your Question: what is the best way to earn heaven

The pre-conditions that Allah Subhanah has declared for entry into Paradise is that the person should be a believer, have ‘taqwa’ or fear of Allah, is a doer of good righteous deeds, and that he did not die as a polytheist.

There are several Aayahs in the Holy Quran whereby Allah Subhanah has declared the qualities of the people who will be granted the Ultimate Mercy and Bounty of Allah called ‘Paradise’.

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 23 Surah Muminoon verses 1-11:

1 The Believers must (eventually) win through

2 Those who humble themselves in their prayers;

3 Who avoid vain talk;

4 Who are active in deeds of charity;

5 Who abstain from sex

6 Except with those joined to them in the marriage bond or (the captives) whom their right hands possess for (in their case) they are free from blame

7 But those whose desires exceed those limits are transgressors

8 These who faithfully observe their trust and their covenants;

9 And who (strictly) guard their prayers

10 Those will be the heirs

11 Who will inherit Paradise: they will dwell therein (forever).

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 9 Surah Taubah verses 111-112:

111 Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the Garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth through the Law, the Gospel, and the Qur'an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? Then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.

112 Those that turn (to Allah) in repentance: that serve Him, and praise Him; that wander in devotion to the Cause of Allah; that bow down and prostrate themselves in prayer; that enjoin good and forbid evil; and observe the limits set by Allah; (these do rejoice). So proclaim the glad tidings to the Believers.

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 61 Surah Saff verses 10-12:

10 O ye who believe! Shall I lead you to a bargain that will save you from a grievous Penalty?

11 That ye believe in Allah and His Messenger and that ye strive (your utmost) in the Cause of Allah with your property and your persons: that will be best for you if ye but knew!

12 He will forgive you your sins and admit you to Gardens beneath which rivers flow and to beautiful mansions in Gardens of Eternity: that is indeed the supreme Achievement.

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 13 Surah Raad verses 20-24:

20 Those who fulfil the Covenant of Allah and fail not in their plighted word;

21 Those who join together those things which Allah hath commanded to be joined, hold their Lord in awe and fear the terrible reckoning;

22 Those who patiently persevere seeking the countenance of their Lord; establish regular prayers; spend out of (the gifts) We have bestowed for their sustenance secretly and openly; and turn off evil with good: for such there is the final attainment of the (Eternal) Home

23 Gardens of perpetual bliss: they shall enter there as well as the righteous among their fathers their spouses and their offspring: and Angels shall enter unto them from every gate (with the salutation):

24 "Peace unto you for that ye persevered in patience! Now how excellent is the final Home!"

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imraan verses 130-136:

130 O ye who believe! Devour not usury, doubled and multiplied; but fear Allah; that ye may (really) prosper.

131 Fear the Fire which is prepared for those who reject faith.

132 And obey Allah and the Messenger; that ye may obtain mercy.

133 Be quick in the race for forgiveness from your Lord, and for a Garden whose width is that (of the whole) of the heavens and of the earth, prepared for the righteous.

134 Those who spend (freely) whether in prosperity or in adversity; who restrain anger and pardon (all) men; for Allah loves those who do good.

135 And those who having done something to be ashamed of, or wronged their own souls, earnestly bring Allah to mind and ask for forgiveness for their sins and who can forgive sins except Allah? And are never obstinate in persisting knowingly in (the wrong) they have done.

136 For such the reward is forgiveness from their Lord and Gardens with rivers flowing underneath, an eternal dwelling; how excellent a recompense for those who work (and strive)!

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 1.629 Narrated by Abu Huraira

The Prophet (saws) said, "Allah will give shade to seven, on the Day when there will be no shade but His. (These seven persons are):

a just ruler,

a youth who has been brought up in the worship of Allah (i.e. worships Allah sincerely from childhood),

a man whose heart is attached to the mosques (i.e. to pray the compulsory prayers in the mosque in congregation),

two persons who love each other only for Allah's sake and they meet and part in Allah's cause only,

a man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for illicit intercourse with her and says: ‘I am afraid of Allah’,

a man who gives charitable gifts so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand has given (i.e. nobody knows how much he has given in charity),

and a person who remembers Allah in seclusion, and his eyes are then flooded with tears."

Your Question: i wanted to know who are those people who entered the heaven without Hisab. also tell me what are those qualities which lead them to heaven without hisab.

Sahih Muslim Hadith 422 Narrated by Imran ibn Husayn

The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: ‘Seventy thousand people of my Ummah would be admitted into Paradise without rendering any account.’ They (the companions) said: ‘Who would be those (fortunate persons)?’ He (the Prophet(saws)) said: ‘Those who do not cauterize and practice charm, but repose trust in their Lord.’ Ukkashah (r.a.) then stood up and said: ‘Supplicate (before) Allah that He should make me one among them.’ He (the Prophet (saws)) said: ‘Thou art one among them.’ A man stood up and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (saws), supplicate (before) Allah that He should make me one among them.’ He (the Prophet (saws)) said: ‘Ukkashah has preceded you (in this matter)!.’

In several other hadiths, the Messenger of Allah (saws) declared that the children who died in their infancy or before the age of puberty, and the people who were insane will also have no accounting in the Court of Allah Subhanah.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your Brother in Islam,

Burhan
