The gates of Jannah!

 Allah (swt) says:

“Gardens of perpetual residence; they will enter them with whoever were righteous among their fathers, their spouses and their descendants. And the angels will enter upon them from every gate, [saying], “Peace be upon you for what you patiently endured. And excellent is the final home”

2. Baab Al-Jihad

Those who lost their lives in defense of Islam will have access through this door. It should be noted that Allah calls on Muslims to solve issues by peaceful means and only engage in defensive battles.

It will be said, ‘Where are those who fasted?’ They will get up, and none will enter it but them. When they have entered, it will be locked, and no one else will enter” (Bukhari 1763).

Those who perform hajj (pilgrimage) will be allowed through this door.

This door will specifically be reserved for those who control their anger and forgive others.
