Before one can actually enter Paradise in the eternal realm found in the other world, they must first exert their best and most sincere efforts to attain it in this temporal domain.

The Pursuit Of Paradise

And whoever is saved from the selfishness of their own souls, it is they who are successful.

Allah will say to the righteous 'O tranquil soul! Return to your Lord, well pleased and well pleasing. So, join My servants, and enter My Paradise.

To enter Paradise, every Muslim must obtain its key. In metaphysical terms, this key is the shahadah (testimony of faith) of "La Ilaha Illa Allah" (there is no God but Allah).However, simply saying the shahadah is not enough. The scholars emphasize that the key will only work if it has teeth, which refer to pious deeds.Therefore, the shape and effectiveness of our key is determined by our deeds and our position in the sight of Allah.

The Key to Paradise

Whoever reads Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad (i.e. Surah al-Ikhlas) 20 times, Allah will build for them a castle in Paradise.

The word used to refer to fragrances is rayhan, which is often used to refer to herbal plants that exude sweet smells. Due to the pleasant odors that they exude, these plants are known for their incredible ability to relax the mind and inculcate a state of absolute tranquility.As such, believers will find themselves fully satisfied and free of all the worries and anxieties that are found in this world.

Calming Fragrances

There is not any one of you who lives in this life except that they have two positons: a home in the Hellfire and a home in Paradise.

Indeed even a single tasbih (litany of Allah's glorification) from any believer is better than everything that has been given to the son of Dawud. And let it be known that everything that has been given to the son of Dawud will perish, but this tasbih of yours will remain forever.

The presence of flowing or running water - like rivers and other bodies of water - has positive psychological effects, known as ‘The blue mind effect’.The Quran utilises this concept by frequently mentioning the gardens of paradise with rivers flowing beneath them.

The Healing Power of Water

"The hidden rivers- namely the ones that are exclusive to Paradise - are Sayhan and Jayhan, whilst the visible rivers are the Nile and the Euphrates."

A person can't satisfactorily celebrate a major event or achievement without the presence of their family. This ultimately means that being accompanied by one's family in Jannah is imperative. Without having one's family members in near proximity, a person will not be able to feel complete joy. This point is beautifully alluded to in the following verse of the Quran:

Family's Presence in Jannah

... the Gardens of Eternity, which they will enter along with the righteous amongst their parents, spouses, and descendants.

Despite being mocked for their beliefs:<ul><li>They may forgo pleasures of this world for the sake of the afterlife</li><li>Despite facing criticism, their faith in Allah and pursuit of salvation remains strong</li><li>They will be handsomely rewarded in the other world for their sacrifices and unwavering faith</li></ul>

The Misunderstood Believer

The people of Paradise will have bracelets of gold and silver, garlands of pearls and Ruby, and the crowns of kings on their heads. Just one pearl from the dress of a woman of Paradise would light up everything between the East and the West.

In the marketplace of Jannah, there will be an unlimited inventory, where it will possess every imaginable product. Likewise, no person will have a limited budget as they will be permitted to pick whatever they wish.Thus, in the perpetual abode of bliss, none of the believers will be subjected to the constraints that conventionally exist in the finite world.

Jannah Marketplace

Because they observed silence in these affairs and refrained from idle speech, Allah will reward them with eternal gardens in the Afterlife that will be free of any disturbances and commotions.

Muslims should follow the example of the Prophets Companions by avoiding gatherings where people are slandered. This will help to protect the natural purity of their souls, which naturally dislikes such negative behaviors.

The Importance of Refraining from Spiteful Speech

Allah created Jannat al- Adn with His Hand, putting one brick of white pearl, another one made of red rubies, and yet another consisting of green crystal. It's floor is made of musk, it's ground consists of pearls, and it's grasses are fashioned with saffron.

To be successful in the afterlife, a Muslim must constantly remember Allah in this temporal world.- Recite Alhamdulillah (all praise be to Allah) when experiencing a pleasant event.- Recite Astaghfirullah (I seek the forgiveness of Allah) if committing a sin.- Recite La ilaha illa Allah (there is no God but Allah) when uttering the declaration of faith at the point of death, for it will allow them to enter Paradise with ease.

Success In The Afterlife

It will be said to the believers 'Enter Jannah in peace and security.

Whatever our situation may be in this life, a life of struggle or comfort, our inevitable fate is the same as the life of this world is temporary.  O believer, this world is not meant to be your paradise, but knowing that Paradise awaits, makes this journey so much more bearable and rewarding. Remember that every difficulty is a right, after all your struggles, all your tests, and trials know that your eternal sanctuary awaits.  Jannah, that is built by your deeds and decorated by your du'as. Chalets of crystals sparkling on the horizon for a soul that gave up sin, tree trunks of green emerald and branches of gold for a simple word of remembrance. Each of your shuddering breaths, every second of discomfort you faced, and every one of your sacrifices, all have been accounted for, repaid with sights and rewards unimaginable and the company of the Most High.  Build your eternal home, decorate your eternal home. Long for your eternal home...

Jannah

True strength develops in times of trial, not comfort.

Champions are formed in adversity

Knowing who you are in God is essential before conquering external battles.

Identity precedes victory

Success comes from consistent effort and obedience, not just natural gifting.

Discipline beats talent

Champions don’t avoid failure; they learn from it and rise stronger.

Failure is part of the process

The people you walk with will influence your direction and your destiny.

Surround yourself wisely

A clear purpose drives passion and resilience through difficult seasons.

Vision gives direction

God often tests champions in hidden places before revealing them to the world.

Stay faithful in obscurity

Not every fight is worth your energy; focus on what aligns with your calling.

Fight the right battles

Speak life, hope, and faith, especially when circumstances seem bleak.

Your words have power

Champions draw strength, direction, and identity from their relationship with God, not from external achievements.

God is your source

1.	Champions grow in hidden places where nobody applauds, but God watches—there, character is forged and identity is strengthened through trials.	2.	Discipline, integrity, and perseverance often outperform talent; consistent obedience builds momentum, shaping champions one small choice at a time.	3.	Failure is not final—it’s a lesson, a step forward; champions get up, reassess, and move forward with courage.	4.	God doesn’t rush destiny; He develops champions slowly, testing their heart before granting the platform to influence others with purpose.

Philosopher George Santayana on Why We Follow The Crowd

<ul><li>Let Them : Embrace the idea of allowing others to be themselves without trying to influence or control their behavior.</li><li>Let Me : Shift attention to your own actions and choices, taking responsibility for how you respond and what you prioritize. </li></ul>

Key Concepts

Key Message: You don’t have to control how others act or think - just let them.Example: When a friend stops including you in social plans, instead of obsessing or confronting, Robbins suggests you simply "let them."Tip: Practice emotional detachment by reminding yourself, "Their actions are about them, not you."

1. The Power of Letting Go

Key Message: Every time you react to drama or negativity, you drain your energy.Example: Instead of trying to defend yourself against gossip, Robbins encourages saving your energy for what truly matters.Tip: Use the mantra: “I choose peace over proving myself.”

2. Reclaiming Your Energy

Key Message: While you let others do what they want, you must also allow yourself to live freely.Example: “Let them” stay stuck in their patterns, while “let me” pursue growth and clarity.Tip: Make a “Let Me” list - what you allow yourself to enjoy, choose, and feel.

3. The ‘Let Them’ and ‘Let Me’ Shift

Key Message: Letting people go doesn’t mean you don’t care - it means you respect boundaries.Example: Robbins shares her own experience of choosing distance from toxic family dynamics while maintaining love.Tip: Journal the difference between healthy detachment and emotional coldness.

4. Detachment Is Not Disconnection

Key Message: When you stop needing others to like you, you become more aligned with your truth.Example: Robbins turned down an overwhelming request for help by saying no - without guilt.Tip: Say “no” with grace: “That doesn’t work for me right now.”

5. From People-Pleaser to Peacekeeper

Let them misunderstand you. Let them walk away. Let them be who they are. Your job is to let them - and keep being you.

Key Message: Trying to be everything to everyone is the fast track to burnout.Example: Mel recalls a moment when she changed how she spoke to appeal to others - only to feel disconnected from herself.Tip: Ask: “Who am I when no one is watching?” Be that person.

6. You Are Not for Everyone

If someone’s behavior bothers you, it’s not your job to change them. It’s your job to decide what you’ll tolerate.

Key Message: You don’t owe anyone an explanation for your dreams, boundaries, or healing.Example: When Mel began her career pivot, many didn’t get it. She let them judge - and kept going.Tip: Repeat: “I don’t need to be understood to be at peace.”

7. It’s Okay If They Don’t Understand You

Key Message: The people who walk away aren’t meant to stay. That’s their path, not your failure.Example: Robbins emphasizes the power of not chasing people who’ve chosen to exit your life.Tip: Celebrate exits as space for alignment: “I’m making room for those who are meant for me.”

8. When They Leave, Let Them

Key Message: You can’t control others, but you can always control how you respond.Example: After a public criticism, Robbins chose calm silence over public rebuttal.Tip: Pause and breathe before reacting. Ask: “Will this matter in a year?”

9. Own Your Response

You don’t need closure from them. You need clarity from within.

Key Message: Letting them go is ultimately about trusting yourself deeply.Example: The “let them” philosophy helped Robbins reconnect with her own voice and confidence.Tip: Write down 5 times you made the right decision even when others disagreed.

10. Radical Self-Trust

Letting them doesn’t mean losing you - it means finally finding you.

At its core, Mel Robbins introduces a simple yet powerful mindset: when others act in ways you can't control - whether it's excluding you, criticizing you, or behaving unpredictably - just "let them". By doing so, you can reduce stress, reclaim personal power and foster healthier relationships.

The Let Them Theory

Have you ever found yourself talking aloud to figure out a problem, or do you prefer long, silent reflection before concluding? These habits might seem insignificant, but they indicate whether a person is an external or internal processor. Our processing style is like a cognitive fingerprint—a unique part of our mind's machinery that reveals a lot about our personality, coping strategies, and how we interact with others.

Our Processing Style: A Technology Of Thinking

Understanding processing styles can transform relationships, self-awareness, and conflict resolution. Recognizing whether we are internal or external processors isn't just about curiosity; it's about learning how to work with our strengths and understanding how our style impacts others.

The Importance Of Understanding Processing Styles

At the core, processing style refers to the way your brain organizes, evaluates, and thinks through information. <ul><li>Internal processors engage in quiet, reflective thought. They prefer to "sort things out" internally before sharing their ideas or feelings with others. They're like a slow cooker, letting everything simmer before serving a final dish.</li><li>External processors, on the other hand, think out loud. They tend to articulate their thoughts as they arise, using speech to clarify and organize their ideas. They're like chefs testing flavors aloud in the kitchen as they cook.</li></ul>

Internal Processors And External Processors

Neither style is inherently better; each offers valuable strengths and poses some interpersonal challenges. Understanding the nuances of these styles can help us get a clearer picture of personality traits, coping mechanisms, and how people engage with the world.

Internal Processors And External Processors: Who Are Better?

Internal processors are often linked to introspection, self-reliance, and conscientiousness. Recent studies in personality psychology indicate that internal processors score higher in traits like openness to experience and introversion on the Big-Five Personality traits. They might prefer solitude to recharge and value deep, meaningful relationships over surface-level interactions.

The Internal Processors - Part 1

An internal processor's coping mechanisms usually revolve around self-reflection. They are more likely to journal, meditate, or mentally rehearse before making decisions or dealing with stress. However, this inward focus sometimes leads to overthinking, rumination, or difficulty expressing emotions to others.An internal processor will spend days thinking about how to address conflicts, but feel blindsided when the other person brings up issues spontaneously.

The Internal Processors - Part 2

External processors, by contrast, correlate strongly with extraversion and agreeableness. New research on verbal behavior and problem-solving suggests that external processors use conversation and dialogue as extensions of their thinking process. These individuals thrive on bouncing ideas off others, making them collaborative team players and great problem solvers in social settings.

The External Processors - Part 1

The coping mechanisms of external processors often involve external outlets like discussing emotions, seeking advice, or having brainstorming sessions. This means they may come across as more transparent in their emotional needs, but their rapid-fire thinking can sometimes overwhelm quieter or more reserved individuals.An external processor will talk through every facet of an issue as it arises, often overwhelming others by the sheer volume and pace of their verbal processing.

The External Processors - Part 2

Our processing style also significantly influences your interaction style with others. External processors are generally seen as more transparent, but can unintentionally dominate conversations or interrupt others without meaning to. On the other hand, internal processors are often viewed as thoughtful listeners, though they can be misunderstood as aloof or disengaged.

The Different Processors And Others

When internal and external processors clash, conflicts can arise simply because one person's pace or processing method feels foreign to the other. This often happens in marriages, sibling relationships, or even at work. But rather than considering these styles as incompatible, think of them as complementary.

The Different Processors in Relationships: A Bad Contrast?

For example, an external processor might help draw out thoughts and feelings from an internal processor by asking well-timed, open-ended questions. On the flip side, internal processors can teach external processors the art of slowing down for deeper reflection. The key is respect and recognizing that everyone navigates their mental landscape differently.

The Different Processors in Relationships: A Good Complement.

Ask for time and space:If you're an internal processor, explain to your external processing partner that you need a moment to think before responding. Share when you're ready to engage.

Practical Tips for Navigating Processing Differences

Practice active listening:During emotionally charged situations, external processors can focus on listening rather than jumping into their stream of thought.

Create systems for collaboration:For example, set up designated times for sharing thoughts or using tools like email or lists. These can act as bridges between the two styles.

Be mindful of stress responses:When stressed, external processors may vent aloud, while internal processors become quieter. Recognizing these patterns can reduce miscommunication.

Our processing style is like a window into how our mind works. Whether we think best quietly with ourself or out loud with others, our style is both a strength and an opportunity for growth. Paying attention to these differences can deepen our relationships and give us greater compassion for others' needs.Ultimately, the nature of thought is not solely about cognition; it's also about connection. How we think affects how we relate to ourself, others, and the world around us.

Navigating Landscapes And Bridging Differences

What our processing style reveals about us.

Understanding whether you're an internal or external processor enhances self-awareness and relationships. Each style has strengths and challenges that complement each other.
