Question:
What are the "good righteous deeds that last" that are mentioned in the aayah
(interpretation of the meaning):
"But the good righteous deeds that last, are better with your Lord for rewards
and better in respect of hope"[al-Kahf 18:46]?
Answer:
Praise be to Allaah.
Al-Shanqeeti (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:
The scholarly opinions concerning the "good righteous deeds that last" all boil
down to one thing: they are all actions which are pleasing to Allaah, whether
we say that they are the five daily prayers, as was narrated from a group of
the salaf, including Ibn `Abbaas, Sa'eed ibn Jubayr, Abu Maysarah and `Umar ibn
Sharhabeel; or that it means [the phrases], "Subhaan-Allaah wa'l-hamdu Lillaah
wa laa ilaaha ill-Allaah, wa Allaahu akbar, wa laa hawla wa laa quwwata illa
Billaah il'Ali il-'Azeem (Glory be to Allaah, praise be to Allaah, there is no
god but Allaah, Allaah is most great and there is no power and no strength
except in Allaah, the Exalted, the Almighty)". This is the view of the majority
of scholars. Indication of that was narrated in marfoo' ahaadeeth narrated from
Abu Sa'eed al-Khudri, Abu'l-Darda', Abu Hurayrah, al-Nu'maan ibn Basheer and
`Aa'ishah (may Allaah be pleased with them).
This phrase, "the good righteous deeds that will last" is a general phrase
which includes the five daily prayers and the five phrases mentioned above
(Subhaan-Allaah, etc), as well as other deeds which are pleasing to Allaah,
because they will abide and will not fade away or vanish like the adornments of
the life of this world, and because they are also done in the manner that
pleases Allaah…
