UDL: “Taqwa: Consciousness Of Allah In All Things, At All Times” (V) Continued

3:141. Allah's object is to remove the imperfections of those believe and to deprive of blessing and leave no trace of those who consciously reject faith in G’d.

Abu Huraira reported: We witnessed the battle of Khaibar along with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. He said concerning a man who claimed to be a Muslim, “He is among the people of Hellfire.” When the battle began, the man fought so fiercely that he was inflicted with many wounds.  I said, “O Messenger of Allah, was it this man you said is among the people of the Hellfire? Indeed, he fought so bravely and was killed.” The Prophet said, “He will go to Hellfire.” Some of the people began to have doubts as someone said he was alive although severely wounded. When the night came, the man could not stand the pain of his wounds and lost his patience and so he killed himself. The Prophet was informed and he said, “Allah is greater! I bear witness that I am the servant of Allah and His Messenger.” He ordered Bilal to make an announcement among the people, “Verily, none will enter Paradise except a soul submissive to Allah. Verily, Allah may support this religion at the hands of a wicked man.”
