not suppress our permissible desires, they will cause us to have impermissible desires. Let’s listen to another blessed Hadees for admonition.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has narrated that the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated: When Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ created Paradise and Hell, He عَزَّوَجَلَّ sent Sayyiduna Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام to Paradise and said, ‘Look at Paradise and its blessings which I have prepared for the inhabitants of Paradise.’ The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘So Sayyiduna Jibraeel (عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام) came to Paradise and saw Paradise and the blessings of Paradise which Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ had prepared for the inhabitants of Paradise and came to the blessed court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and humbly said, ‘By Your Honour and Majesty! Whoever will hear of this Paradise must try to enter it.’ Then Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ gave the order and Paradise was covered with difficulties and troubles. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ then said to Sayyiduna Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام, ‘Go again and see Paradise and its blessings which I have prepared for the inhabitants of Jannah.’ The Beloved Rasool
صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘Sayyiduna Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام went to Paradise again and what he saw was that it was covered with difficulties and troubles. Sayyiduna Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم came to the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and humbly said: ‘O Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! By Your Honour and Majesty! I fear that now no one will be able to enter it.’ Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ then said, ‘Now go towards Hell and see Hell and its torments which I have prepared for the inhabitants of Hell.’ Sayyiduna Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام went and saw that one part of [the fire of] Hell was climbing up the other one. So he عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم came to the blessed court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and humbly said, ‘O Allah Almighty! By Your Honour and Majesty! There is no one who after hearing about (the severity of) Hell will enter it (i.e., he will try to protect himself from it).’ Hence by the order of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ Hell was covered with the covers of desires and pleasures. Then Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ ordered Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم, ‘Go towards Hell again’ Jibraeel عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام went and came to the blessed court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and humbly said, ‘O Allah Almighty! By Your Honour and Majesty! I fear that now no one will be able to stay safe from it, but rather they (after indulging themselves in desires) will enter it.’
