40. I think the Hadeeth was meant to illustrate
Edited on Tue Dec-27-05 04:19 AM by PsychoDad
That even a small act of kindness to any of God's creatures could outweigh all our other shortcomings on the Divine scale.

The Hadeeth does not record her name or age, nor does it tell us about the circumstances of how she came to be a prostitute.

It doesn't even say she was Muslim, or believed in any God.

But because of a act of kindness, simply for the sake of kindness, she was given paradise. Muhammad was a man, he did not have the power to fogive her or grant her a place in paradise, that was the doing of Allah.


Peace
