Poor First

share and show love
Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu ‘anhu narrates that Rasulullah Sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam said: ”The poor Muslims will enter Paradise half-a-day earlier than the rich. This half-day will be equivalent to five hundred years of this world.” (Tirmidhi)



Note: The preceding hadith states that the poor Muslims will enter Paradise forty years before the rich; this may be in a situation where both the rich and the poor have a greed for wealth. Whereas according to this hadith, the poor will enter Paradise five hundred years before the rich; this may be when the poor do not have a greed for wealth. (Jami-‘ul-usul)
