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

Sahl ibn Sa‘d (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever gives me a guarantee to safeguard what is between his jaws and what is between his legs, I will guarantee him Paradise."
Narrated by Bukhari

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.

Benefits from the Hadith

  1. Protecting one's tongue and private parts is a means of entering Paradise.
  2. 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.
