gabri-el 7

So Jibril was the first creature given a spirit.

And when Allaw swt created Paradise and Hellfire, He sent Jibril to go look at Jannah.

Which tells you that Jibril was there before Jannah of Hellfire even existed.

'Go look and see what I have prepared for the inhabitants of it!'

(Who had not been created yet.)

So Jibril is the first one to feast his eyes on that place...

with its rivers and palaces and mansions and what all...

And he comes back with a sense of excitement:

'No one is going to know a place like this exists and miss out on it!'

Then Allah swt said that he should go and look a second time.

And Jibril saw that Allah surrounded Jannah with obstacles, and hardships.

It was not that easy, not like that.

So the second time, Jibril was worried:

'Now I am afraid no one's gonna get into Jannah!... 

How are they going to get past these hardships and these obstacles?'

'Now look at Hellfire, and see what I prepared for its inhabitants!' God said.

And returning from it, Jibril replied: 'I swear by Your Glory... 

no one's going to hear about Hellfire and enter it!

When people know what Hellfire is like, they are going to make sure...

they avoid the things that would cause them to enter into it.'

But God showed him that Hellfire was surrounded too.

With desires and ease, tests and trials in a different way...

And Jibril came back from it to Allah swt, and he said:

'I swear by Your Glory, now I'm afraid no one's going ti be saved!'

Now what this shows you right away...

is that Jibril has a love for the people of Iman.

He has a love for the people of Faith before they are even born.

Not everyone will enter into Hellfire, God explained.

The believers, those who have humility in their prayers, those will enter.

Salah, prayer, would be the determining factor.
