018: Excellence in Akhlaq | Your Golden Ticket to Jannah

قَالَ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ أَكْثَرِ مَا يُدْخِلُ النَّاسَ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏تَقْوَى اللَّهِ وَحُسْنُ الْخُلُقِ"‏‏.‏ وَسُئِلَ عَنْ أَكْثَرِ مَا يُدْخِلُ النَّاسَ النَّارَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏الْفَمُ وَالْفَرْجُ"‏

The Prophet ﷺ was asked about that for which people are admitted into Paradise the most, and he ﷺ said, "Taqwa of Allah, and good character”. And he was asked about that for which people are admitted into the Fire the most, and he ﷺ said: "The mouth and the private parts" (At-Tirmidzi)
