Whoever gives me a guarantee to safeguard what is between his jaws and what is between his legs, I will guarantee him Paradise

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs us about two things, which if a Muslim observes, he will enter Paradise. First: protecting the tongue from saying things that displease Allah Almighty. Second: preserving the private parts from obscenity. This is because these two organs are often used in the perpetration of sins.

Lessons

• Protecting one's tongue and private parts is a means of entering Paradise.
• He singled out the tongue and the private parts because they are the greatest sources of trials for people in this world and in the Hereafter.
