Selected Hadith Regarding Might, Favor and
Remembrance of ALLAH [S.W.T]
Sahih Muslim: Chapter 13, Book 32: Virtue, Good Manners And Joining Of
The Ties Of Relationship, Number 6246:
Abu Dharr (R.A)
reported:
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] as saying
that ALLAH [S.W.T], the EXALTED and GLORIOUS, said: MY servants, I have made
oppression unlawful for ME and unlawful for you, so do not commit oppression
against one another. MY servants, all of you are liable to err except one whom
I guide on the right path, so seek right guidance from ME so that I should
direct you to the right path. O MY servants, all of you are hungry (needy)
except one whom I feed, so beg food from ME, so that I may give that to you. O
MY servants, all of you are naked (need clothes) except one whom I provide
garments, so beg clothes from ME, so that I should clothe you. O MY servants,
you commit error night and day and I am there to pardon your sins, so beg
pardon from ME, so that I should grant you pardon. O MY servants, you can
neither do ME any harm nor can you do ME any good. O MY servants, even if the
first amongst you and the last amongst you and even the whole of human race of
yours, and that of jinns even, become (equal in) ALLAH [S.W.T] conscious like
the heart of a single person amongst you, nothing would add to MY Power. O MY
servants, even if the first amongst you and the last amongst you and the whole
human race of yours and that of the jinns too in unison become the most wicked
(all beating) like the heart of a single person, it would cause no loss to MY
Power. O MY servants, even if the first amongst you and the last amongst you
and the whole human race of yours and that of jinns also all stand in one plain
ground and you ask ME and I confer upon every person what he asks for, it would
not in any way, cause any loss to ME (even less) than that which is caused to
the ocean by dipping the needle in it. MY servants, these for you I shall
reward you for then, so he who deeds of yours which I am recording finds good
should Praise ALLAH and he who does not find that should not blame anyone but
his ownself. Sa'id (R.A) said: That when Abu Idris Khaulini (R.A) narrated this
hadith he knelt upon his knees.
Sahih
Bukhari: Volume 1, Book 2: Belief, Number 20:
Narrated Anas
(R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "Whoever
possesses the following three qualities will taste the sweetness of faith:
1. The one to
whom ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Apostle [S.A.W.S) become dearer than anything else.
2. Who loves a
person and he loves him Only for ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Sake.
3. Who hates to
revert to disbelief (atheism) after ALLAH [S.W.T] has brought (saved) him out
from it, as he hates to be thrown in Fire."
Sahih
Bukhari: Volume 1, Book 2: Belief, Number 47:
Narrated Abu
Huraira (R.A):
One day while the Prophet [S.A.W.S] was
sitting in the company of some people, (The Angel) Gabriel (P.B.U.H) came and
asked, "What is faith?" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] replied,
'Faith is to believe in ALLAH [S.W.T], HIS Angels (P.B.U.T), (the) meeting with
HIM, HIS Apostles (P.B.U.T), and to believe in Resurrection." Then he
further asked, "What is Islam?" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S]
replied, "To Worship ALLAH [S.W.T] Alone and none else, to offer prayers
perfectly to pay the compulsory charity (Zakat) and to observe fasts during the
month of Ramadan." Then he further asked, "What is Ihsan
(perfection)?" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] replied, "To Worship
ALLAH [S.W.T] as if you see HIM, and if you cannot achieve this state of
devotion then you must consider that HE is looking at you." Then he
further asked, "When will the Hour be established?" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Apostle [S.A.W.S] replied, "The answerer has no better knowledge than the
questioner. But I will inform you about its portents.
1. When a slave
(lady) gives birth to her master.
2. When the
shepherds of black camels start boasting and competing with others in the
construction of higher buildings. And the Hour is one of five things which
nobody knows except ALLAH [S.W.T]. The Prophet [S.A.W.S] then recited:
"Verily, with ALLAH (Alone) is the Knowledge of the Hour--." (31.14)
Then that man (Gabriel (P.B.U.H)) left and the Prophet [S.A.W.S] asked his
companions (R.A) to call him back, but they could not see him. Then the Prophet
[S.A.W.S] said, "That was Gabriel (P.B.U.H) who came to teach the people
their religion." Abu 'Abdullah (R.A) said: He (the Prophet [S.A.W.S])
considered all that as a part of faith.
Sahih
Bukhari: Volume 1, Book 2: Belief, Number 7:
Narrated Ibn
'Umar (R.A):
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said: Islam
is based on (the following) five (principles):
1. To testify
that none has the right to be Worshiped but ALLAH [S.W.T] and Muhammad
[S.A.W.S] is ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle.
2. To offer the
(compulsory congregational) Prayers dutifully and perfectly.
3. To pay Zakat
(i.e. obligatory charity).

Hajj (i.e. Pilgrimage to Mecca).

Narrated Abu
Waqid Al-Laithi (R.A):
While ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] was
sitting in the Mosque with some people, three men came. Two of them came in
front of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] and the third one went away. The two
persons kept on standing before ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] for a while
and then one of them found a place in the circle and sat there while the other
sat behind the gathering, and the third one went away. When ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Apostle [S.A.W.S] finished his preaching, he said, "Shall I tell you about
these three persons? One of them be-took himself to ALLAH [S.W.T], so ALLAH
[S.W.T] took him into HIS Grace and Mercy and accommodated him, the second felt
shy from ALLAH [S.W.T], so ALLAH [S.W.T] sheltered him in HIS Mercy (and did
not punish him), while the third turned his face from ALLAH [S.W.T] and went
away, so ALLAH [S.W.T] turned HIS face from him likewise."
Sahih
Bukhari: Volume 1, Book 11: Call to Prayers (Adhaan), Number 620:
Narrated Abu
Huraira (R.A):
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said,
"The reward of the prayer offered by a person in congregation is twenty
five times greater than that of the prayer offered in one's house or in the
market (alone). And this is because if he performs ablution and does it
perfectly and then proceeds to the Mosque with the sole intention of praying,
then for every step he takes towards the Mosque, he is upgraded one degree in
reward and his one sin is taken off (crossed out) from his accounts (of deeds).
When he offers his prayer, the Angels (P.B.U.T) keep on asking ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Blessings and ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Forgiveness for him as long as he is (staying) at
his Musalla. They say, 'O ALLAH! Bestow YOUR Blessings upon him, be Merciful
and Kind to him.' And one is regarded in prayer as long as one is waiting for
the prayer."

bin Khalid Al-Juhani (R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] led us in the Fajr
prayer at Hudaibiya after a rainy night. On completion of the prayer, he faced
the people and said, "Do you know what your LORD has said
(revealed)?" The people replied, "ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Apostle
[S.A.W.S] know better." He said, "ALLAH [S.W.T] has said, 'In this
morning some of my slaves remained as true believers and some became non-believers;
whoever said that the rain was due to the Blessings and the Mercy of ALLAH
[S.W.T] had belief in ME and he disbelieves in the stars, and whoever said that
it rained because of a particular star had no belief in ME but believes in that
star.'"

"ALLAH [S.W.T] the MOST SUPERIOR said, "The son of Adam slights ME,
and he should not slight ME, and he disbelieves in ME, and he ought not to do so.
As for his slighting ME, it is that he says that I have a son; and his
disbelief in ME is his statement that I shall not recreate him as I have
created (him) before."

Dhar (R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] asked me at sunset,
"Do you know where the sun goes (at the time of sunset)?" I replied,
"ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Apostle [S.A.W.S] know better." He said,
"It goes (i.e. travels) till it prostrates itself underneath the Throne
and takes the permission to rise again, and it is permitted and then (a time
will come when) it will be about to prostrate itself but its prostration will
not be accepted, and it will ask permission to go on its course but it will not
be permitted, but it will be ordered to return whence it has come and so it
will rise in the west. And that is the interpretation of the Statement of ALLAH
[S.W.T]: "And the sun runs its fixed course for a term (decreed). That is
The Decree of (ALLAH) The EXALTED IN MIGHT, The ALL-KNOWING." (36.38)

Narrated Malik
bin Sasaa (R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "While I was
at the House in a state midway between sleep and wakefulness, (an Angel
(P.B.U.H) recognized me) as the man lying between two men. A golden tray full
of wisdom and belief was brought to me and my body was cut open from the throat
to the lower part of the abdomen and then my abdomen was washed with Zam-zam
water and (my heart was) filled with wisdom and belief. Al-Buraq, a white
animal, smaller than a mule and bigger than a donkey was brought to me and I
set out with Gabriel (P.B.U.H). When I reached the nearest heaven. Gabriel
(P.B.U.H) said to the heaven gate-keeper, 'Open the gate.' The gatekeeper
asked, 'Who is it?' He said, 'Gabriel.' The gate-keeper,' Who is accompanying
you?' Gabriel (P.B.U.H) said, 'Muhammad [S.A.W.S].' The gate-keeper said, 'Has
he been called?' Gabriel (P.B.U.H) said, 'Yes.' Then it was said, 'He is
welcomed. What a wonderful visit his is!' Then I met Adam (P.B.U.H) and greeted
him and he said, 'You are welcomed O son and a Prophet.' Then we ascended to
the second heaven. It was asked, 'Who is it?' Gabriel (P.B.U.H) said,
'Gabriel.' It was said, 'Who is with you?' He said, 'Muhammad [S.A.W.S]' It was
asked, 'Has he been sent for?' He said, 'Yes.' It was said, 'He is welcomed.
What a wonderful visit his is!" Then I met Jesus and Yahya (John) (P.B.U.T)
who said, 'You are welcomed, O brother and a Prophet.' Then we ascended to the
third heaven. It was asked, 'Who is it?' Gabriel (P.B.U.H) said, 'Gabriel.' It
was asked, 'Who is with you? Gabriel (P.B.U.H) said, 'Muhammad [S.A.W.S].' It
was asked, 'Has he been sent for?' 'Yes,' said Gabriel (P.B.U.H). 'He is
welcomed. What a wonderful visit his is!' (The Prophet [S.A.W.S] added:) There
I met Joseph (P.B.U.H) and greeted him, and he replied, 'You are welcomed, O
brother and a Prophet!' Then we ascended to the 4th heaven and again the same
questions and answers were exchanged as in the previous heavens. There I met
Idris (P.B.U.H) and greeted him. He said, 'You are welcomed O brother and
Prophet.' Then we ascended to the 5th heaven and again the same questions and
answers were exchanged as in previous heavens there I met and greeted Aaron
(P.B.U.H) who said, 'You are welcomed O brother and a Prophet". Then we
ascended to the 6th heaven and again the same questions and answers were
exchanged as in the previous heavens. There I met and greeted Moses (P.B.U.H)
who said, 'You are welcomed O brother and a Prophet.' When I proceeded on, he
started weeping and on being asked why he was weeping, he said, 'O LORD!
Followers of this youth who was sent after me will enter Paradise in greater
number than my followers.' Then we ascended to the seventh heaven and again the
same questions and answers were exchanged as in the previous heavens. There I
met and greeted Abraham (P.B.U.H) who said, 'You are welcomed o son and a
Prophet.' Then I was shown Al-Bait-al-Ma'mur (i.e. ALLAH [S.W.T]’s House). I
asked Gabriel (P.B.U.H) about it and he said, This is Al Bait-ul-Ma'mur where
70,000 Angels (P.B.U.T) perform prayers daily and when they leave they never
return to it (but always a fresh batch comes into it daily).' Then I was shown
Sidrat-ul-Muntaha (i.e. a tree in the seventh heaven) and I saw its Nabk fruits
which resembled the clay jugs of Hajr (i.e. a town in Arabia), and its leaves
were like the ears of elephants, and four rivers originated at its root, two of
them were apparent and two were hidden. I asked Gabriel (P.B.U.H) about those
rivers and he said, 'The two hidden rivers are in Paradise, and the apparent
ones are the Nile and the Euphrates.' Then fifty prayers were enjoined on me. I
descended till I met Moses (P.B.U.H) who asked me, 'What have you done?' I
said, 'Fifty prayers have been enjoined on me.' He said, 'I know the people
better than you, because I had the hardest experience to bring Bani Israel to
obedience. Your followers cannot put up with such obligation. So, return to
your LORD and request HIM (to reduce the number of prayers.' I returned and
requested ALLAH [S.W.T] (for reduction) and HE made it forty. I returned and
(met Moses (P.B.U.H)) and had a similar discussion, and then returned again to
ALLAH [S.W.T] for reduction and HE made it thirty, then twenty, then ten, and
then I came to Moses (P.B.U.H) who repeated the same advice. Ultimately ALLAH
[S.W.T] reduced it to five. When I came to Moses (P.B.U.H) again, he said,
'What have you done?' I said, 'ALLAH [S.W.T] has made it five only.' He
repeated the same advice but I said that I surrendered (to ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Final
Order)'" ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] was addressed by ALLAH [S.W.T],
"I have decreed MY Obligation and have reduced the burden on MY slaves,
and I shall reward a single good deed as if it were ten good deeds."
Sahih
Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 54: Beginning of Creation, Number 430:
Narrated
'Abdullah bin Mus'ud (R.A):
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S], the true
and truly inspired said, "(The matter of the Creation of) a human being is
put together in the womb of the mother in forty days, and then he becomes a
clot of thick blood for a similar period, and then a piece of flesh for a
similar period. Then ALLAH [S.W.T] sends an Angel (P.B.U.H) who is ordered to
write four things. He is ordered to write down his (i.e. the new creature's)
deeds, his livelihood, his (date of) death, and whether he will be Blessed or
wretched (in religion). Then the soul is breathed into him. So, a man amongst
you may do (good deeds till there is only a cubit between him and Paradise and
then what has been written for him decides his behavior and he starts doing
(evil) deeds characteristic of the people of the (Hell) Fire. And similarly a
man amongst you may do (evil) deeds till there is only a cubit between him and
the (Hell) Fire, and then what has been written for him decides his behavior,
and he starts doing deeds characteristic of the people of Paradise."

which resembles the sound of a ringing bell, and when this state abandons me, I
remember what the Angel (P.B.U.H) has said, and this type of Divine Inspiration
is the hardest on me; and sometimes the Angel (P.B.U.H) comes to me in the
shape of a man and talks to me, and I understand and remember what he
says."

unto ALLAH [S.W.T] WHO asks them, and HE knows the answer better than they,
"How have you left MY slaves?" They reply, "We have left them
praying as we found them praying." If anyone of you says "Aameen"

departed, overwhelmed with excessive sorrow, and proceeded on, and could not
relax till I found myself at Qarnath-Tha-alib where I lifted my head towards
the sky to see a cloud shading me unexpectedly. I looked up and saw Gabriel
(P.B.U.H) in it. He called me saying, 'ALLAH [S.W.T] has heard your people's
saying to you, and what they have replied back to you, ALLAH [S.W.T] has sent
the Angel (P.B.U.H) of the Mountains to you so that you may order him to do
whatever you wish to these people.' The Angel (P.B.U.H) of the Mountains called

If you like, I will let Al-Akh-Shabain (i.e. two mountains) fall on them."

superiority over one another (in rewards)." On that the people said,
"O ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S]! Are these lofty mansions for the
Prophets (P.B.U.T) which nobody else can reach? The Prophet [S.A.W.S]

said, "ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] put me in charge of the Zakat of
Ramadan (i.e. Zakat-ul-Fitr). Someone came to me and started scooping some of
the foodstuff of (Zakat) with both hands. I caught him and told him that I
would take him to ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S]." Then Abu Huraira
(R.A) told the whole narration and added "He (i.e. the thief) said,
'Whenever you go to your bed, recite the Verse of "Al-Kursi" (2.255)
for then a Guardian (P.B.U.H) from ALLAH [S.W.T] will be guarding you, and

Iqama is pronounced, he again takes to his heels, and after its completion, he
returns again to interfere between the (praying) person and his heart, saying
to him. 'Remember this or that thing.' till the person forgets whether he has
offered three or four Rakat: so if one forgets whether he has prayed three or
four Rak'a-t, he should perform two prostrations of Sahu (i.e.
forgetfulness)."

HE said to him, "Go and greet that group of Angels (P.B.U.T), and listen
to their reply, for it will be your greeting (salutation) and the greeting
(salutations of your offspring." So, Adam (P.B.U.H) said (to the Angels
(P.B.U.T)), As-Salamu Alaikum (i.e. Peace be upon you). The Angels (P.B.U.T)
said, "As-salamu Alaika wa Rahmatu-l-lahi" (i.e. Peace and ALLAH's
Mercy be upon you). Thus the Angels (P.B.U.T) added to Adam's salutation the
expression, 'Wa Rahmatu-l-lahi,' any person who will enter Paradise will
resemble Adam (P.B.U.H) (in appearance and figure). People have been decreasing
in stature since Adam (P.B.U.H)'s creation.

[S.W.T]! How many are the people of the Fire?' ALLAH [S.W.T] will reply: 'From
every one thousand, take out nine-hundred-and ninety-nine.' At that time
children will become hoary headed, every pregnant female will have a
miscarriage, and one will see mankind as drunken, yet they will not be drunken,
but dreadful will be the Wrath of ALLAH [S.W.T]." The companions (R.A) of
the Prophet [S.A.W.S] asked, "O ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S]! Who is
that (excepted) one?" He said, "Rejoice with glad tidings; one person
will be from you and one-thousand will be from Gog and Magog." The Prophet
[S.A.W.S] further said, "By HIM in WHOSE Hands my life is, hope that you
will be one-fourth of the people of Paradise." We shouted, "ALLAHU
Akbar!" He added, "I hope that you will be one-third of the people of
Paradise." We shouted, "ALLAHU Akbar!" He said, "I hope

It will be said: 'They renegade from Islam after you left them.' Then I will

those people are either ourselves or our children who are born in the Islamic
era, for we were born in the Pre-Islamic Period of Ignorance.'' When the

those who do not treat themselves with Ruqya, nor do they believe in bad or
good omen (from birds etc.) nor do they get themselves branded (Cauterized) but

the time of the death of a believer approaches, he receives the Good news of
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s pleasure with him and HIS Blessings upon him, and so at that
time nothing is dearer to him than what is in front of him. He therefore loves
the meeting with ALLAH [S.W.T], and ALLAH [S.W.T] (too) loves the meeting with
him. But when the time of the death of a disbeliever approaches, he receives
the evil news of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s torment and HIS Requital, whereupon nothing is
more hateful to him than what is before him. Therefore, he hates the meeting
with ALLAH [S.W.T], and ALLAH [S.W.T] too, hates the meeting with him."

turns a bread with his hands while (preparing the bread) for a journey, and
that bread will be the entertainment for the people of Paradise." A man

Thereupon the Prophet [S.A.W.S] looked at us and smiled till his premolar tooth
became visible. Then the Jew further said, "Shall I tell you of the udm

sword." This news reached ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] who then said,
"You people are astonished at Sa'd (R.A)'s Ghira. By ALLAH [S.W.T], I have
more Ghira than he, and ALLAH [S.W.T] has more Ghira than I, and because of
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Ghira, HE has made unlawful shameful deeds and sins (illegal
sexual intercourse etc.) done in open and in secret. And there is none who
likes that the people should repent to HIM and beg HIS pardon than ALLAH
[S.W.T], and for this reason HE sent the Warners and the Givers of Good news.
And there is none who likes to be Praised more than ALLAH [S.W.T] does, and for
this reason, ALLAH [S.W.T] promised to grant Paradise (to the doers of
good)." 'Abdul Malik (R.A) said, "No person has more Ghira than ALLAH
[S.W.T]."

bin Hussain (R.A):
While I was with the Prophet [S.A.W.S], some
people from Bani Tamim came to him. The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "O Bani
Tamim! Accept the good news!" They said, "You have given us the good
news; now give us (something)." (After a while) some Yemenites entered,
and he said to them, "O the people of Yemen! Accept the good news, as Bani
Tamim have refused it." They said, "We accept it, for we have come to
you to learn the Religion. So we ask you what the beginning of this universe
was." The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said "There was ALLAH [S.W.T] and nothing
else before HIM and HIS Throne was over the water, and HE then Created the
Heavens and the Earth and wrote everything in the Book." Then a man came
to me and said, 'O Imran (R.A)! Follow your she-camel for it has run
away!" So I set out seeking it, and behold, it was beyond the mirage! By
ALLAH [S.W.T], I wished that it (my she-camel) had gone but that I had not left

degrees in Paradise which ALLAH [S.W.T] has prepared for those who carry on
Jihad in HIS Cause. The distance between every two degrees is like the distance
between the sky and the Earth, so if you ask ALLAH [S.W.T] for anything, ask

donkey but smaller than a mule, who would place his hoof a distance equal to
the range of vision. I mounted it and came to the Temple (Bait Maqdis in
Jerusalem), then tethered it to the ring used by the Prophets (P.B.U.T). I
entered the Mosque and prayed two rak'ahs in it, and then came out and Gabriel
(P.B.U.H) brought me a vessel of wine and a vessel of milk. I chose the milk,
and Gabriel (P.B.U.H) said: You have chosen the natural thing. Then he took me
to heaven. Gabriel (P.B.U.H) then asked the (gate of heaven) to be opened and
he was asked who he was. He replied: Gabriel (P.B.U.H). He was again asked: Who
is with you? He (Gabriel (P.B.U.H)) said: Muhammad [S.A.W.S]. It was said: Has
he been sent for? Gabriel (P.B.U.H) replied: He has indeed been sent for. And
(the door of the heaven) was opened for us, and Lo! We saw Adam (P.B.U.H). He
welcomed me and prayed for my good. Then we ascended to the second heaven.
Gabriel (P.B.U.H) (asked the door of heaven to be opened), and he was asked who
he was. He answered: Gabriel (P.B.U.H); and was again asked: Who is with you?
He replied: Muhammad [S.A.W.S]. It was said: Has he been sent for? He replied:
He has indeed been sent for. The gate was opened. When I entered 'Isa b. Maryam
and Yahya b. Zakariya (P.B.U.T), cousins from the maternal side, welcomed me
and prayed for my good. Then I was taken to the third heaven and Gabriel
(P.B.U.H) asked for the opening (of the door). He was asked: Who are you? He replied:
Gabriel (P.B.U.H). He was (again) asked: Who is with you? He replied Muhammad
[S.A.W.S]. It was said: Has he been sent for? He replied He has indeed been

given half of (world) beauty. He welcomed me prayed for my well-being. Then he
ascended with us to the fourth heaven. Gabriel (P.B.U.H) asked for the (gate)
to be opened, and it was said: Who is he? He replied: Gabriel (P.B.U.H). It was
(again) said: Who is with you? He said: Muhammad [S.A.W.S]. It was said: Has he
been sent for? He replied: He has indeed been sent for. The (gate) was opened

well-being (About him) ALLAH [S.W.T], the EXALTED and the GLORIOUS, has said:
"WE elevated him (Idris (P.B.U.H)) to the exalted position" (Qur'an

Gabriel (P.B.U.H). It was said: Who is with thee? He replied: Muhammad
[S.A.W.S]. It was said: Has he been sent for? He replied: He has indeed been
sent for. (The gate) was opened for us and there I was with Moses (P.B.U.H). He
welcomed me and prayed for my well-being. Then I was taken up to the seventh
heaven. Gabriel (P.B.U.H) asked the (gate) to be opened. It was said: Who is he?
He said: Gabriel (P.B.U.H). It was said. Who is with thee? He replied: Muhammad
[S.A.W.S]. It was said: Has he been sent for? He replied: He has indeed been

reclining against the Bait-ul-Ma'mur and there enter into it seventy thousand
Angels (P.B.U.T) every day, never to visit (this place) again. Then I was taken
to Sidrat-ul-Muntaha whose leaves were like elephant ears and its fruit like
big earthenware vessels. And when it was covered by the Command of ALLAH
[S.W.T], it underwent such a change that none amongst the Creation has the
power to praise its beauty. Then ALLAH [S.W.T] revealed to me a revelation and
HE made obligatory for me fifty prayers every day and night. Then I went down
to Moses (P.B.U.H) and he said: What has your LORD enjoined upon your Ummah? I
said: Fifty prayers. He said: Return to thy LORD and beg for reduction (in the
number of prayers), for your community shall not be able to bear this burden as
I have put to test the children of Isra'il and tried them (and found them too
weak to bear such a heavy burden). He (the Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) said: I went
back to my LORD and said: My LORD, make things lighter for my Ummah. (The LORD)
reduced five prayers for me. I went down to Moses (P.B.U.H) and said. (The
LORD) reduced five (prayers) for me, He said: Verily thy Ummah shall not be
able to bear this burden; return to thy LORD and ask HIM to make things
lighter. I then kept going back and forth between my LORD BLESSED and EXALTED,
and Moses (P.B.U.H), till HE said: There are five prayers every day and night.
O Muhammad [S.A.W.S], each being credited as ten, so that makes fifty prayers.
He who intends to do a good deed and does not do it will have a good deed recorded
for him; and if he does it, it will be recorded for him as ten; whereas he who
intends to do an evil deed and does not do, it will not be recorded for him;
and if he does it, only one evil deed will be recorded. I then came down and
when I came to Moses (P.B.U.H) and informed him, he said: Go back to thy LORD
and ask HIM to make things lighter. Upon this the Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T]
[S.A.W.S] remarked: I returned to my LORD until I felt ashamed before HIM.

Prophet [S.A.W.S]) said: Lead me to her (or his) grave. They led him to that
place and he said prayer over her (or him) and then remarked: Verily, these
graves are full of darkness for their dwellers. Verily, the MIGHTY and GLORIOUS
ALLAH [S.W.T] illuminates them for their occupants by reason of my prayer over
them.

We asked 'Abdullah (R.A) about the Qur'anic
verse: "Think not of those who are slain in ALLAH’s way as dead. Nay, they
are alive, finding their sustenance in the presence of their LORD. ."
(3.169). He said: We asked the meaning of the verse (from the Holy Prophet
[S.A.W.S]) who said: The souls, of the Martyrs live in the bodies of green
birds who have their nests in chandeliers hung from the Throne of the ALMIGHTY.
They eat the fruits of Paradise from wherever they like and then nestle in
these chandeliers. Once their LORD cast a Glance at them and said: Do you want
anything? They said: What more shall we desire? We eat the fruit of Paradise
from wherever we like. Their LORD asked them the same question thrice. When
they saw that they will continue to be asked and not left (without answering
the question) they said: O LORD, we wish that THOU mayest return our souls to
our bodies so that we may be slain in THY way once again. When HE (ALLAH
[S.W.T]) saw that they had no need, they were left (to their joy in heaven).

People dispersed from around Abu Huraira, and
Natil (R.A), who was from the Syrians said to him: O Shaikh, relate (to us) a
tradition you have heard from the Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S]. He
said: Yes. I heard the Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S] say: The first of
men (whose case) will be decided on the Day of Judgment will be a man who died
as a Martyr. He shall be brought (before the Judgment Seat). ALLAH [S.W.T] will
make him recount HIS Blessings (i.e. the Blessings which HE had bestowed upon
him) and he will recount them (and admit having enjoyed them in his life).
(Then) will ALLAH [S.W.T] say: What did you do (to requite these Blessings)? He
will say: I fought for THEE until I died as a Martyr. ALLAH [S.W.T] will say:
You have told a lie. You fought that you might be called a "brave
warrior". And you were called so. (Then) orders will be passed against him
and he will be dragged with his face downward and cast into Hell. Then will be
brought forward a man who acquired knowledge and imparted it (to others) and
recited the Qur'an. He will be brought and ALLAH [S.W.T] will make him recount
HIS Blessings and he will recount them (and admit having enjoyed them in his
lifetime). Then will ALLAH [S.W.T] ask: What did you do (to requite these
Blessings)? He will say: I acquired knowledge and disseminated it and recited
the Qur'an seeking THY pleasure. ALLAH [S.W.T] will say: You have told a lie.
You acquired knowledge so that you might be called "a scholar," and
you recited the Qur'an so that it might be said: "He is a Qari" and
such has been said. Then orders will be passed against him and he shall be
dragged with his face downward and cast into the Fire. Then will be brought a
man whom ALLAH [S.W.T] had made abundantly rich and had granted every kind of
wealth. He will be brought and ALLAH [S.W.T] will make him recount HIS
Blessings and he will recount them and (admit having enjoyed them in his
lifetime). ALLAH [S.W.T] will (then) ask: What have you done (to requite these
Blessings)? He will say: I spent money in every cause in which THOU wished that
it should be spent. ALLAH [S.W.T] will say: You are lying. You did (so) that it
might be said about (You): "He is a generous fellow" and so it was
said. Then will ALLAH [S.W.T] pass orders and he will be dragged with his face
downward and thrown into Hell.

person dies (while, performing this duty), his (meritorious) activity will
continue and he will go on receiving his reward for it perpetually and will be
saved from the torture of the grave.

(R.A)) said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S], so far as the feeling of
aversion against death is concerned, we all have this feeling. Thereupon he
(the Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) said: It is not that (which you construe), but
(this) that when a believer (at the time of death) is given the glad tidings of
the Mercy of ALLAH [S.W.T], HIS Pleasure, and of Paradise, he loves to meet
ALLAH [S.W.T], and ALLAH [S.W.T] also loves to meet him, and when an unbeliever
is given the news of the torment at the Hand of ALLAH [S.W.T], and Hardship to
be imposed by HIM, he dislikes to meet ALLAH [S.W.T] and ALLAH [S.W.T] also
abhors to meet him.

And 'he who comes with vice,' it is only for that that he is called to account.
I even Forgive him (as I like) and he who draws close to ME by the span of a
palm I draw close to him by the cubit, and he who draws close to ME by the
cubit I draw close to him by the space (covered) by two hands, and he who walks
towards ME I rush towards him, and he who meets ME in the state that his sins
fill the earth, but not associating anything with ME, I would meet him with the
same (vastness) of Pardon (on MY behalf)." This Hadith has been

a waterless desert and there is upon (that camel) his provision of food and
drink also and it is lost by him, and he having lost all hope (to get that)
lies down in the shadow and is disappointed about his camel and there he finds

of boundless joy says: O LORD, THOU art my servant and I am THINE LORD. He

reported:
I met Abu Bakr (R.A). He said: Who are you? He
(Hanzala (R.A)) said: Hanzala (R.A) has turned to be a hypocrite. He (Abu Bakr
(R.A)) said: Hallowed be ALLAH, what are you saying? Thereupon he said: I say
that when we are in the company of ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] we
ponder over Hell-Fire and Paradise as if we are seeing them with our very eyes
and when we are away from ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] we attend to our
wives, our children, our business; most of these things (pertaining to
After-life) slip out of our minds. Abu Bakr (R.A) said: By ALLAH [S.W.T], I
also experience the same. So I and Abu Bakr (R.A) went to ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S] and said to him: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S],
Hanzala (R.A) has turned to be a hypocrite. Thereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] said: What has happened to you? I said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S], when we are in your company, we are reminded of Hell-Fire and
Paradise as if we are seeing them with our own eyes, but whenever we go away
from you and attend to our wives, children and business, much of these things
go out of our minds. Thereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: By HIM
in WHOSE Hand is my life, if your state of mind remains the same as it is in my
presence and you are always busy in remembrance (of ALLAH [S.W.T]), the Angels (P.B.U.T)
will shake hands with you in your beds and in your paths but, Hanzala (R.A),
time should be devoted (to the worldly affairs) and time (should be devoted to
prayer and meditation). He (the Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) said this thrice.

and it is because of this (one part) that they love one another, show kindness

Thereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: Do you think this woman
would ever afford to throw her child in the Fire? We said: By ALLAH [S.W.T], so
far as it lies in her power, she would never throw the child in Fire. Thereupon

fornication. Here I am (before you), kindly deliver verdict about me which you
deem fit. 'Umar (R.A) said: ALLAH [S.W.T] concealed your fault. You had better
conceal it yourself also. ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S], however, gave no
reply to him. The man stood up and went away and ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle
[S.A.W.S] sent a person after him to call him and be recited this verse: "And
observe prayer at the ends of the day and in the first hours of the night.
Surely, good deeds take away evil deeds. That is a reminder for the
mindful" (11. 115). A person amongst the people said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Apostle [S.A.W.S], does it concern this man only? Thereupon he (the Holy
Prophet [S.A.W.S]) said: No, but the people at large.

imposition of hadd upon me, so impose it upon me. ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] kept silent. He repeated it and said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S], I have committed an offence which deserves the imposition of hadd
upon me, so impose it upon me. He (the Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) kept silent, and
it was at this time that Iqama was pronounced for prayer (and the prayer was
observed). And when ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Apostle [S.A.W.S] had concluded the payer
that person followed ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S]. Abu Umama (R.A) said:
I too followed ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] after he had concluded the
prayer, so that I should know what answer he would give to that person. That
person remained attached to ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] and said: ALLAH
[S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S], I have committed an offence which deserves
imposition of hadd upon me, so impose it upon me. Abu Umama (R.A) reported that
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said to him: Didn't you see that as you got
out of the house, you performed ablution perfectly well. He said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s
Messenger [S.A.W.S], of course, I did it. He again said to him: Then you
observed prayer along with us. He said: ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S],
yes, it is so. Thereupon ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said to him:
Verily, ALLAH [S.W.T] has exempted you from the imposition of hadd, or he said
from your sin.

him HIS veil (of Light) and make him confess his faults and say: Do you recognize
(your faults)? He would say: My LORD, I do recognize (them). He (the LORD)
would say: I concealed them for you in the world. And today I Forgive them. And
he would then be given the Book containing (the account of his) good deeds. And

"Come to the object of your pursuit.'" He added, "Then the

ALLAH [S.W.T], and the Angels (P.B.U.T) go back), their LORD, asks them (those Angels
(P.B.U.T))- though HE knows better than them----'What do MY slaves say?' The

Alham-du-lillah, ALLAH [S.W.T] then says 'Did they see ME?' The Angels
(P.B.U.T) reply, 'No! By ALLAH [S.W.T], they didn't see YOU.' ALLAH [S.W.T]

more deeply, and declare YOUR freedom from any resemblance to anything more
often.' ALLAH [S.W.T] says (to the Angels (P.B.U.T)), 'What do they ask ME

said: "ALLAH, there is no god but HE, the LIVING, the ETERNAL." (Ayat
Al-Kursi (2.255)) Thereupon he struck me on my breast and said: May knowledge
be pleasant for you, O Abu’l-Mundhir (R.A)!

Some of the
people from among the Companions (R.A) of the Apostle of ALLAH [S.W.T]
[S.A.W.S] said to him: Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S], the rich have
taken away (air the) reward. They observe prayer as we do; they keep the fasts
as we keep, and they give sadaqa out of their surplus riches. Upon this he (the
Holy Prophet [S.A.W.S]) said: Has ALLAH [S.W.T] not prescribed for you (a
course) by following which you can (also) do sadaqa? In every declaration of
the Glorification of ALLAH [S.W.T] (i.e. saying Subhan ALLAH) there is a
sadaqa, and every Takbir (i.e. saying ALLAHU Akbar) is a sadaqa, and every
Praise of HIS (saying al-Hamdu Lillah) is a sadaqa and every declaration that
HE is ONE (La illha ill-ALLAH) is a sadaqa, and enjoining of good is a sadaqa,
and forbidding of that which is evil is a sadaqa, and in man's sexual
Intercourse (with his wife,) there is a sadaqa. They (the Companions (R.A))
said: Messenger of ALLAH [S.W.T] [S.A.W.S], is there reward for him who
satisfies his sexual passion among us? He said: Tell me, if he were to devote
it to something forbidden, would it not be a sin on his part? Similarly, if he
were to devote it to something lawful, he should have a reward.

[S.W.T], declares ALLAH [S.W.T] to be ONE, Glorifies ALLAH [S.W.T], and seeks
Forgiveness from ALLAH [S.W.T], and removes stone, or thorn, or bone from
people's path, and enjoins what is good and forbids from evil, to the number of
those three hundred and sixty-four, will walk that day having removed himself
from Hell.

visited a person from amongst the Muslims in order to inquire (about his
health) who had grown feeble like the chicken. ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger
[S.A.W.S] said: Did you supplicate for anything or beg of HIM about that? He
said: Yes. I used to utter (these words): Impose punishment upon me earlier in
this world, what THOU art going to impose upon me in the Hereafter. Thereupon
ALLAH [S.W.T]’s Messenger [S.A.W.S] said: Hallowed be ALLAH, you have neither
the power nor forbearance to take upon yourself (the burden of HIS Punishment).
Why did you not say this: O ALLAH, grant us good in the world and good in the
Hereafter, and save us from the torment of Fire. He (the Holy Prophet
[S.A.W.S]) made this supplication (for him) and he was all right.

another supplication he (inserted) this very supplication in that.

one brings anything more excellent than this, except one who has done more than
this (who utters these words more than one hundred times and does more good

HIM. Hallowed be ALLAH, the LORD of the worlds, there is no might and power but
that of ALLAH, the ALL-POWERFUL and the WISE." He (that desert Arab) said:
These all (Glorify) my LORD. But what about me? Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet
[S.A.W.S]) said: You should say:" O ALLAH, grant me Pardon, have Mercy
upon me, direct me to righteousness and provide me sustenance." Musa (R.A)
(one of the narrators) said: I think he also said:" Grant me safety."

[S.W.T] would make things easy for him in the Hereafter, and he who conceals
(the faults) of a Muslim, ALLAH [S.W.T] would conceal his faults in the world

is at the back of his brother, and he who treads the path in search of
knowledge, ALLAH [S.W.T] would make that path easy, leading to Paradise for him
and those persons who assemble in the house among the houses of ALLAH [S.W.T]
(Mosques) and recite the Book of ALLAH [S.W.T] and they learn and teach the

is the lowest to rank? HE (ALLAH [S.W.T]) said: The person who would be
admitted into Paradise last of all among those deserving of Paradise who are
admitted to it. I would be said to him: Enter Paradise. He would say: O my
LORD! How (should I enter) while the people have settled in their apartments
and taken the shares (portions)? It would be said to him: Would you be pleased
if there be for you like the kingdom of a king amongst the kings of the world?
He would say: I am pleased my LORD. HE (ALLAH [S.W.T]) would say: For you is
that, and like that, and like that, and like that, and that. He would say at
the fifth (point): I am well pleased, my LORD. HE (ALLAH [S.W.T]) would say: It
is for you and ten times like it, and for you is what your self desires and
your eye enjoys. He would say: I am well pleased, my LORD. He (Moses (P.B.U.H))
said: (Which is) the highest of their (inhabitants of Paradise) ranks? HE
(ALLAH [S.W.T]) said: They are those Whom I choose. I establish their Honor
with MY OWN Hand and then set a seal over it (and they would be Blessed with
Bounties) which no eye has seen, no ear has heard and no human mind has
perceived: and this is substantiated by the Book of ALLAH [S.W.T], the EXALTED
and GREAT: "So no soul knows what delight of the eye is hidden for them; a
reward for what they did" (32.17).
"And if whatever trees upon the earth were pens and
the sea [was ink], replenished thereafter by seven [more] seas, the Words of
ALLAH would not be exhausted. Indeed, ALLAH is EXALTED IN MIGHT and WISE."
