Fulfilling all the injunctions of Deen to enter Jannah

Q: In Surah Al-Mu'minun, there are six conditions for entry into Jannah-tul-Firdaws. If someone follows only three, four, or five conditions or even one but they try to make their character good and do Nawafil if obligatory prayers are lacking, do they still have a chance of going to Jannah-tul-Firdaws?

A: The requirement for a person to gain entry into Jannah is having Imaan. The one who does not have imaan will never enter Jannah. The one who has Imaan but neglects the other obligations of deen, then such a person is regarded as a sinner in the sight of Allah Ta'ala.

The hadith explains that on the day of Qiyaamah, if a person's sins and evil deeds outweigh his good deeds on the scale, then (if Allah Ta'ala does not forgive him for his sins), he will be sent to Jahannum for punishment for his wrongs. After gaining purification and being cleansed in the fire of Jahannum, then he will be sent to Jannah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
