During one of his Ghazawat (wars in which Prophet (S.A.W.S) took part), the Prophet (S.A.W.S) encountered the pagans, and the two armies fought, and then each of them returned to their army camps. Amongst the (army of the) Muslims there was a man who would follow every pagan separated from the army and strike him with his sword.

It was said, "O Allah's Apostle! None has fought so satisfactorily as so-and-so (namely that brave Muslim)." The Prophet (S.A.W.S) said, "He is from the dwellers of the Hell Fire."

The people were surprised. They said, "who amongst us will be of the dwellers of Paradise if this man who is fighting so fiercely for the cause of Allah is from the dwellers of the Hell Fire?"

Then a man from amongst the people said, "I will follow him and accompany him in his fast and slow movements."

So this man followed the brave warrior for some time. The (brave) man got wounded in the war and could not bear the pain. Wanting to die at once, he put the handle of his sword on the ground and it's tip in between his breasts, and then threw himself over it, committing suicide.

Then the man (who has watched all this) returned to the Prophet (S.A.W.S) and said, "I testify again that you are Apostle of Allah." The Prophet (S.A.W.S) said, "why is that?" The man told him that the brave Muslim had committed suicide and so was sure to go to hell as predicted by the Prophet (S.A.W.S).

The Prophet (S.A.W.S) said, "A man may do what may seem to the people as the deeds of the dwellers of Paradise, but he is of the dwellers of the Hell-Fire and a man may do what may seem to the people as the deeds of the dwellers of the Hell-Fire, but he is from the dwellers of Paradise."

(Adapted from Saheeh Bukhari, book 59, Hadeeth 518)

Lessons- never ever judge anyone. Keep your intentions clear and check your deeds. Fear for your accountability to Allah (S.W.T). Before removing faults in others, count your own mistakes.

Guys remember me and my parents in your Duas!!
Pray for everyone, the whole Ummah and especially those suffering around the world.
