The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “There is not one of you except that his Lord will speak to him directly, with no veil between them and no interpreter. He will look to his right and see nothing but what he sent on ahead; he will look to his left and see nothing but what he sent on ahead; and he will look in front of him and see only the Fire. So guard yourselves against the Fire, even if it be with half a date.” (2)
