Punishment for missing prayers

[Gham-e-Madinah]

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

 

 

It is reported in Hadith that Rasool Allah sallalaho alaihe wasallam said, "The faces of those that do not pray will be blackened first of all on the day of judgement, then he will be put in a valley of Hell called Alam. There are snakes in this valley that are as large as camels and their length is the equivalent of one month's travel time. They will bite the people and their poison will stay in the person's body for seventy years, then their meat will rot". (Makashifat Ul Quloob)

 

We are not able to withstand a little mosquito bite and are troubled by its pain. Therefore, think that for missing prayers the punishment is snakebites. Who will be able to withstand that? Our state is that we believe in Rasool Allah sallalaho alaihe wasallam but do not have total faith in what he has said. Rasool Allah sallalaho alaihe wasallam has done great favours to us by telling us every aspect of the day of judgement and the punishments in the life hereafter.

 

Now that he has told us that the punishment for missing prayers is being stung by a snake, and has told us the size and appearance of the snake, it is our duty to perform prayers and save ourselves from such a punishment. May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala make us all punctual performers of prayer. (Aameen)
