Are the seventy thousand who enter Paradise without reckoning or torment the first to enter Paradise?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The Muhajirun (emigrants) will be the first group to enter Paradise. On the Day of Resurrection, they will come to the gate of Paradise and ask for it to be opened. The keepers will ask them: "Have you been judged?" They will reply: "For what should we be judged, when our swords were on our shoulders in the path of Allah until we died in that state?" So, it will be opened for them, and they will rest therein for forty years before other people enter it. This does not contradict the entry of seventy thousand into Paradise without reckoning or punishment.
