ENGLISH

It is narrated on the authority of Jabir that Nu'man b. Qaufal came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said:

Would I enter Paradise if I say the obligatory prayers and deny myself that which is forbidden and treat that as lawful what has been made permissible (by the Shari'ah)? The Prophet (ﷺ) replied in the affirmative.
