How Can We Ensure We've Done Enough for Jannah?

As-salamu alaykum, I know we shouldn't just aim for the bare minimum when it comes to earning our place in Jannah, but honestly I get really worried sometimes. I feel like maybe 90% of what I do each day is just temporary stuff that won't count for much on the Day of Judgment, and only about 10% or less are good deeds that will actually benefit my scale of deeds. It makes me scared that what I'm doing might not be enough insha'Allah.

I think we all have this fear. It's a constant battle to stay mindful and not get lost in the dunya. May Allah make it easy for us and accept our efforts.

The worry means you care, and that's a blessing. Just take it one small good deed at a time.

I feel this so deeply sis. I get the same anxiety sometimes. It's a sign of your iman to be this concerned, alhamdulillah. Let's just keep striving and making sincere du'a.

Wa alaykum as-salam. This is a thought that crosses my mind almost daily. I try to remind myself that Allah is Al-Ghafur and Ar-Rahim. Our sincere intention to do better is a deed in itself, insha'Allah.

Same. That 90/10 split is painfully relatable.
