❖ Question:
Will the people of Paradise be called by the gatekeepers of Jannah?
❖ Answer:
Yes. Those whose entry into Paradise has been decreed will indeed be called by the gatekeepers stationed at the gates of Jannah, inviting them to come forward.
Sayyiduna Abū Hurayrah رضي الله عنه reports that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
من أنفق زوجين فى سبيل الله، دعاه خزنة الجنة، كل خزنة باب: أى فلان هلم
Whoever spends two things in the way of Allah, the gatekeepers of Paradise will call him from every gate: “O so-and-so! Come this way.”
(Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī: 2841, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim: 1027)
Conclusion:Yes, the people of Paradise will be welcomed by the gatekeepers of Jannah, who will call them from the doors of Paradise according to their deeds.
