Hadith Of The Ten Promised Paradise
The prophet Muhammad, in a Hadith accepted by Sunni Muslims, specified ten of his companions who were promised paradise.

The authenticity of this Hadith is rejected by the Shias, and does not figure in either Sahih Bukhari or Sahih Muslim.

“That is the real pivot of all bourgeois consciousness in all countries: fear and hate of the instinctive, intuitional, procreative body in man or woman. But of course this fear and hate had to take on a righteous appearance, so it became moral, said that the instincts, intuitions and all the activities of the procreative body were evil, and promised a reward for their suppression. That is the great clue to bourgeois psychology: the reward business.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“A fool’s paradise is a wise man’s hell!”
—Thomas Fuller (1608–1661)
