What is the explanation of "Farta'u" and what is meant by it in the Hadith: "If you pass by the meadows of Paradise, then graze therein (Farta'u)"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The meaning of "farta‘ū" (graze) in the Hadith is to eat and drink in abundance and comfort, which is a metaphor for taking one's fill and the greatest share. The "gardens of Paradise" are the mosques, and "grazing" in them refers to Tasbih (glorifying Allah), Tahmid (praising Allah), Takbir (magnifying Allah), and Tahlil (declaring that there is no god but Allah).
