The Chambers of Paradise

The chambers are lofty dwellings in Paradise given to the patient: «those are recompensed with the chamber for what they patiently endured, and are greeted therein with greeting and peace», and «the godfearing have chambers above which are built chambers, beneath which rivers run — the promise of God; God does not fail the tryst» ¹.

In Sahih al-Bukhari, from Abu Hurayra (may God be pleased with him), the Prophet ﷺ said: «In Paradise there is a chamber whose outside shows from within and whose inside shows from without — God prepared it for whoever fed food, spoke gently, kept up fasting, and prayed at night while the people slept» ².
