What is the ruling on circulating messages that speak about the description of Paradise, its price, and its key, and about furnishing the grave with prayer, charity, the Qur'an, and loving good for people, and is this information correct?
Calling to Paradise and making the grave a beautiful garden is a commendable act, for Allah invites to the Abode of Peace and Paradise. Similarly, using attractive methods to prepare for the Afterlife and race towards Paradise is permissible, provided there is sincerity and no fabrication of lies about Allah. However, it is more appropriate to focus on disseminating the texts of the two revelations (Quran and Sunnah), as their impact on hearts is stronger, more profound, more guiding, and more enticing. Allah Almighty says: (Say: "If I go astray, I go astray only to my own loss. But if I am guided, it is by what my Lord reveals to me. Indeed, He is All-Hearing, Ever Near.") Ibn Uthaymeen objected to the "Happy Journey" leaflet due to its falsehood and desired to replace it with the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger.
