In the verse of Holy Quran Allah Almighty says:
“…Indeed, We have prepared Hell for the disbelievers as lodging” (Quran, 18:102).
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) always warned people to save themselves from the Hellfire. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) mentioned certain deeds that would assist the motivators to distance themselves from the hellfire. Below we have mentioned certain deeds that every Muslim can undertake to save him/her from the hellfire.
Believing in Allah and Prophet Muhammad (SAW):
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said: “Whoever witnesses that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger, Allah forbids the Fire from touching him.” So we should believe in Allah and His Messenger.
Being Kind to Others:
Abdullah Ibn Masood narrated that Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:
“Shall I not inform you of whom the Fire is unlawful and he is unlawful for the Fire? Every person who is near (to people), friendly, and easy (to deal with).”
If someone wants to protect him/ her from hellfire then they should be kind and merciful to others.
Abu Hurairah narrated that our beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:
“The Fire will consume the entire son of Adam except for the mark of prostration. Allah has forbidden the Fire to consume the mark of prostration.”
We should pray regularly on time if we want to protect ourselves from hellfire.
