Poverty and Women in Jannah and Hell

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) observed that most of the people in Jannah are poor and most of the people in Hell are women.

Ibn 'Abbas and 'Imran bin Al-Husain (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Prophet said, "I looked into Jannah and saw that most of its dwellers are the poor; and I looked into Hell and saw that most of its inmates were women". Al-Bukhari and Muslim.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about poverty and women's roles in Heaven and Hell. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ observed that most of the people who will enter Heaven are poor, while most of those who will enter Hell are women. This does not mean that all poor people will go to Heaven or all women to Hell; rather, it means that poverty is a virtue which can lead one to Paradise, while being heedless of religious obligations can lead one to punishment. It also serves as a reminder for us to take care of our less fortunate brothers and sisters, as well as for us to be mindful of our religious duties so we may attain salvation.
