The Best women Of Paradise [1]

In this world, every day thousands to millions of people are being born and others goes to departure for never having chance to come back in our world. When we look behind and read the history then we come to know about few immortal beings, indeed they are alive with us because their high status that they achieved by living life in such a great way, and became examples for us till the world end.

It's urged that we not only remind them but also follow their path and adopt their ways of life so shall we get success like them. Islam is a religion that give women high status. Lets recalls our memories about four greatest women of Paradise. Indeed these great ladies are true source of  strength and inspiration.

Hazart Anas (May Allah Be Pleased With Him) reports that Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) has said: "The best women of mankind are four: Mariam daughter of `Imraan, Asiya wife of Pharaoh, Khadija daughter of Khuwailid, and Fatima the daughter of the Messenger of Allaah." [Bukhari and Muslim]

This hadith is about four women who acquired perfection in faith and character by virtue of their devotion, patience and morality. Their lives are guidance and examples for all believers, especially in times of hardship, difficulty and struggle.

Lady Asiya (May Allah Be Pleased with her), wife of the Pharaoh, is known by Muslims as one of the greatest women of all time. 

The Qur'an chronicles her as a great person and she is respected all the more by Muslims as she was married to one of the most evil men in history, but never lost faith in God and remained steadfast in prayer and belief.

"And Allah sets forth the example of muslims, the wife of Firawn. 

When she said, 'O my Lord! Build a house for me in the Paradise with You and deliver me from Firawn and his work and deliver me from the people unjust."  Surah At-Tahrim : Ayat 11

God had chosen her to provide refuge to Prophet Mosa(Moses) Peace Be Upon Him, when he was an infant. When her maids brought the cradle of Prophet Mosa(Moses) Peace Be Upon Him from the river, she insisted to Pharaoh that she wanted to adopt that infant as a child: 

And the wife of Firawn, said, 'this child is the comfort to me and you, slay him not perhaps he may profit us or we may take him for a son,' and they were unaware.  Surah Al-Qasas : Ayat 9

Lady Asiya (May Allah Be Pleased With Her) worshipped God in secret and praying in disguise fearing her husband. She died while being tortured by her husband, who had discovered her monotheism.

A righteous lady married to the biggest tyrant, 

Her husband denied the truth so vehemently,

Yet she worshipped the One True Lord secretly,

Of Islam she was a strong adherent.

She was most beloved to the worst oppressor,

But she gave up riches amongst richest and chose to suffer,

She wasn’t willing to give up the truth,

When she was tortured for days on end, Islam was there to sooth. 

A smile on her face she constantly had,

And they even resorted to calling her mad,

It was the truth and beauty of Islam that she had tasted,

Her life was for Allah only and nothing was wasted. 

Years before the seeds had already been planted,

She was inspired to take in the baby Moosa (Peace and Blessings be upon him),

When it was the baby boys heads that Fir’aun (Pharaoh) wanted, 

Allah’s plan triumphed and He provided the answer. 

Aasiyah (May Allah be pleased with her), indeed your sacrifice was not in vain, 

Allah was the witness of your suffering and pain.

Promised Jannah (Paradise) by Allah Most High,

Your beautiful story makes me want to cry. 

Your love for Allah was so much, 

And I can only wish that I had your strength,

You are a true and perfect example for us,

Clearly epitomising what's important in life.
