English Translation
Narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever believes in Allah and His Messenger, establishes the prayer, and fasts Ramadan, it is a right upon Allah to admit him to Paradise, whether he fought in the cause of Allah or remained in the land where he was born." The people said: "O Messenger of Allah, shall we not give the people glad tidings?" He said: "Indeed, there are a hundred levels in Paradise that Allah has prepared for those who fight in His cause. Between each two levels is the distance like that between the heavens and the earth. So when you ask Allah, ask Him for al-Firdaws, for it is the middle and highest part of Paradise, above it is the Throne of the Most Merciful, and from it the rivers of Paradise spring forth."

سیدنا ابن عباس رضی اللہ عنہما کہتے ہیں کہنبی کریمصلی اللہ علیہ وسلمکو بنی بیاضہ کے ایک غلام نے پچھنے لگائے، پھر نبی کریمصلی اللہ علیہ وسلمنے اس کو اس کی اجرت دی۔ اور اس کے مالک سے سفارش کی کہ وہ اس کے ٹیکس میں تخفیف کرے۔ اگر (سینگی لگانے والے کی اجرت) حرام ہوتی تو آپصلی اللہ علیہ وسلماس کو مزدوری ہرگز نہ دیتے۔[مختصر صحيح مسلم/حدیث: 935]
