[Machine] Narrated by Abu Ad-Darda, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Allah does not gather in the heart of a person dust in the way of Allah and the smoke of hellfire. And whoever dirties his feet in the way of Allah, Allah prohibits the rest of his body from the fire. And whoever fasts for a day in the way of Allah, Allah distances him from the fire a distance of a journey of a thousand years for the fast traveler. And whoever gets wounded in the way of Allah, he is sealed with the seal of the martyrs, and on the Day of Judgment, he will have a light, its color is like saffron and its fragrance is like musk, which the first and last people will recognize. They say, ‘This is so and so; his seal is that of the martyrs.’ And whoever fights in the way of Allah, his mount will be recorded as a mount that was killed, and Paradise is obligated for him."  

عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ يَرْفَعُ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَجْمَعُ اللهُ فِي جَوْفِ رَجُلٍ غُبَارًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَدُخَانَ جَهَنَّمَ وَمَنِ اغْبَرَّتْ قَدَمَاهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ حَرَّمَ اللهُسَائِرَ جَسَدِهِ عَلَى النَّارِ وَمَنْ صَامَ يَوْمًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ بَاعَدَ اللهُ عَنْهُ النَّارَ مَسِيرَةَ أَلْفِ سَنَةٍ لِلرَّاكِبِ الْمُسْتَعْجِلِ وَمَنْ جُرِحَ جِرَاحَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَتَمَ لَهُ بِخَاتَمِ الشُّهَدَاءِ لَهُ نُورٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَوْنُهَا مِثْلُ لَوْنِ الزَّعْفَرَانِ وَرِيحُهَا مِثْلُ رِيحِ الْمِسْكِ يَعْرِفُهُ بِهَا الْأَوَّلُونَ وَالْآخِرُونَ يَقُولُونَ فُلَانٌ عَلَيْهِ طَابَعُ الشُّهَدَاءِ وَمَنْ قَاتَلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فُوَاقَ نَاقَةٍ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ  

[Machine] I have seen some of us during our travels, and indeed one of us would put his hand on his head due to the intensity of the heat, and no one among the people was fasting except the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and Abdullah ibn Rawaha. And Abu 'Amir, Uthman ibn Hayyan, said this alone.  

لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِنَا وَإِنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَيَضَعُ يَدَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الْحَرِّ وَمَا فِي الْقَوْمِ صَائِمٌ إِلَّا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ وَقَالَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ وَحْدَهُ  

[Machine] "O Allah, grant me companionship, relieve my loneliness, and bless me with a righteous and beloved companion. Abu Darda heard this and said, 'If you are sincere, then I am happy with what you have said. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Among them [the people] are those who wrong themselves' (35:32). The wrongdoer suffers from grief and sorrow in his place. And among them are those who are moderate' (35:32). They will have an easy reckoning. And among them are those who precede [others] in good deeds' (35:32). Those who enter Paradise without any reckoning."  

اللهُمَّ آنِسْ وَحْشَتِي وَارْحَمْ غُرْبَتِي وَارْزُقْنِي جَلِيسًا حَبِيبًا صَالِحًا فَسَمِعَهُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ صَادِقًا لَأَنَا أَسْعَدُ بِمَا قُلْتَ مِنْكَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ {فَمِنْهُمْ ظَالِمٌ لِنَفْسِهِ} [فاطر 32] قَالَ الظَّالِمُ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهُ فِي مَقَامِهِ ذَلِكَ الْهَمُّ وَالْحَزَنُ {وَمِنْهُمْ مُقْتَصِدٌ} [فاطر 32] قَالَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا {وَمِنْهُمْ سَابِقٌ بِالْخَيْرَاتِ} [فاطر 32] قَالَ الَّذِينَ يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ  

[Machine] A man passed by him while he was planting a tree in Damascus, so he said to him, "Why are you doing this while you are the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He replied, "Do not rush me. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever plants a tree, it will not be eaten from by any human being or animal from the creation of Allah ﷻ except that it will be a charity for him.' Abdullah said, 'My father said, "Al-Ashja'i, meaning Sufyan, narrated from Al-A'mash, from Abu Ziyad."' I entered the mosque of Damascus."  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا مَرَّ بِهِ وَهُوَ يَغْرِسُ غَرْسًا بِدِمَشْقَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَتَفْعَلُ هَذَا وَأَنْتَ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ لَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيَّ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ غَرَسَ غَرْسًا لَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ آدَمِيٌّ وَلَا خَلْقٌ مِنْ خَلْقِ اللهِ ﷻ إِلَّا كَانَ لَهُ صَدَقَةً قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ قَالَ أَبِي قَالَ الْأَشْجَعِيُ يَعْنِي عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْالْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي زِيَادٍ دَخَلْتُ مَسْجِدَ دِمَشْقَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said: "O Abu Dardaa, do not single out the night of Friday for optional prayers without also praying during other nights, and do not single out the day of Friday for fasting without also fasting on other days."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ لَا تَخْتَصَّ لَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ بِقِيَامٍ دُونَ اللَّيَالِي وَلَا يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ بِصِيَامٍ دُونَ الْأَيَّامِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Shall I not inform you of something more excellent in degree than fasting, prayer and almsgiving (sadaqah)? The people replied: Yes, Prophet of Allah! He said: It is putting things right between people, spoiling them is the shaver (destructive). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4919)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِأَفْضَلَ مِنْ دَرَجَةِ الصَّلَاةِ وَالصِّيَامِ وَالصَّدَقَةِ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ إِصْلَاحُ ذَاتِ الْبَيْنِ قَالَ وَفَسَادُ ذَاتِ الْبَيْنِ هِيَ الْحَالِقَةُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever hears a statement from a person that he does not wish to be mentioned from him, then it is a trust, even if he does not conceal it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَمِعَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ حَدِيثًا لَا يَشْتَهِي أَنْ يُذْكَرَ عَنْهُ فَهُوَ أَمَانَةٌ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَكْتِمْهُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said regarding the verse {For them there is good news in the worldly life and in the Hereafter} [Yunus: 64], he said: A righteous dream is seen by a Muslim or seen for him.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي قَوْلِهِ ﷻ {لَهُمُ الْبُشْرَى فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ} [يونس 64] قَالَ الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ يَرَاهَا الْمُسْلِمُ أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ  

[Machine] There was among us a man whose mother insisted that he not get married until he did. So, he got married and then she ordered him to leave her and he traveled to Abu Darda in Sham. He said, "My mother did not cease (insisting) until I got married and then she ordered me to leave." He said, "What is it that I order you to leave and what is it that I order you to hold onto? I heard the Messenger of Allah say, 'The parent is the middle of the gates of Paradise, so keep to that gate or protect it.'" So, he returned to her after having left her.  

كَانَ فِينَا رَجُلٌ لَمْ تَزَلْ بِهِ أُمُّهُ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَ حَتَّى تَزَوَّجَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَتْهُ أَنْ يُفَارِقَهَا فَرَحَلَ إِلَى أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ بِالشَّامِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أُمِّي لَمْ تَزَلْ بِي حَتَّى تَزَوَّجْتُ ثُمَّ أَمَرَتْنِي أَنْ أُفَارِقَ قَالَ مَا أَنَا بِالَّذِي آمُرُكَ أَنْ تُفَارِقَ وَمَا أَنَا بِالَّذِي آمُرُكَ أَنْ تُمْسِكَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْوَالِدُ أَوْسَطُ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ فَأَضِعْ ذَلِكَ الْبَابَ أَوْ احْفَظْهُ قَالَ فَرَجَعَ وَقَدْ فَارَقَهَا  

[Machine] About Sinan, they would designate him and focus on him in the land, and he would wake up having killed the fox. Do you think it is his knack? I said I sat with Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, and there was an old man with white hair and beard from the people of Sham (Levant). So I asked him about that. He said to me, "Do you eat fox?" I said, "I have never eaten it, but some people from my tribe eat it." He said, "The eating of it is not permitted." The old man said, "O Abdullah, shall I narrate to you a hadeeth I heard from Abu Darda' narrating it from the Prophet ﷺ ?" I said, "Yes." He said, "I heard Abu Darda' say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade every thievery, loot, aggression, and every fanged beast." Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib said, "He speaks the truth"  

عَنْ سِنَانٍ يُحَدِّدُونَهُ وَيُرَكِّزُونَهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَيُصْبِحُ وَقَدْ قَتَلَ الضَّبُعَ أَتُرَاهُ ذَكَاتَهُ؟ قَالَ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ فَإِذَا عِنْدَهُ شَيْخٌ أَبْيَضُ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ؟ فَقَالَ لِي وَإِنَّكَ لَتَأْكُلُ الضَّبُعَ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ مَا أَكَلْتُهَا قَطُّ وَإِنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ قَوْمِي لَيَأْكُلُونَهَا قَالَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أَكْلَهَا لَا يَحِلُّ قَالَ فَقَالَ الشَّيْخُ يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ بِحَدِيثٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ يَرْوِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ يَقُولُ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ كُلِّ ذِي خِطْفَةٍ وَعَنْ كُلِّ نُهْبَةٍ وَعَنْ كُلِّ مُجَثَّمَةٍ وَعَنْ كُلِّ ذِي نَابٍ مِنَ السِّبَاعِ قَالَ فَقَالَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ صَدَقَ  

[Machine] There was a man in Sham named Ma'dan. Abu Darda used to recite the Quran to him. Abu Darda lost him and one day he met him while he was riding a camel. Abu Darda said to him, "O Ma'dan, how is the Quran that used to be with you? How are you doing with it today?" He replied, "Allah knows best what happened to it and He has been generous." Abu Darda asked, "O Ma'dan, are you now living in a city or a village?" He replied, "No, I am living in a village near the city." Abu Darda said, "Wait a minute, may the curse of Allah be upon you, O Ma'dan. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'There are no five members of a tribe among whom the Adhan is not called nor the Salat established, except that the Shaytan has gained control over them. The wolf then attacks the lone sheep from among them.' You should reside in cities, O Ma'dan."  

كَانَ رَجُلٌ بِالشَّامِ يُقَالُ لَهُ: مَعْدَانُ، كَانَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ يُقْرِئُهُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَفَقَدَهُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءَ، فَلَقِيَهُ يَوْمًا وَهُوَ بِدَابِقٍ، فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ: يَا مَعْدَانُ مَا فَعَلَ الْقُرْآنُ الَّذِي كَانَ مَعَكَ؟ كَيْفَ أَنْتَ وَالْقُرْآنُ الْيَوْمَ؟ قَالَ: قَدْ عَلِمَ اللهُ مِنْهُ فَأَحْسَنَ، قَالَ: يَا مَعْدَانُ، أَفِي مَدِينَةٍ تَسْكُنُ الْيَوْمَ أَوْ فِي قَرْيَةٍ؟ قَالَ: لَا، بَلْ فِي قَرْيَةٍ قَرِيبَةٍ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ، قَالَ: مَهْلًا، وَيْحَكَ يَا مَعْدَانُ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «مَا مِنْ خَمْسَةِ أَهْلِ أَبْيَاتٍ لَا يُؤَذَّنُ فِيهِمْ بِالصَّلَاةِ، وَتُقَامُ فِيهِمُ الصَّلَوَاتُ، إِلَّا اسْتَحْوَذَ عَلَيْهِمُ الشَّيْطَانُ، وَإِنَّ الذِّئْبَ يَأْخُذُ الشَّاذَّةَ» فَعَلَيْكَ بِالْمَدَائِنِ، وَيْحَكَ يَا مَعْدَانُ  

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: If there are three men in a village or in the desert among whom prayer is not offered (in congregation), the devil has got the mastery over them. So observe (prayer) in congregation), for the wolf eats only the straggling animal. Sa'ib said: By the word Jama'ah he meant saying prayer in company or in congregation. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 547)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ فِي قَرْيَةٍ وَلَا يُؤَذَّنُ وَلَا تُقَامُ فِيهِمُ الصَّلَوَاتُ إِلَّا اسْتَحْوَذَ عَلَيْهِمُ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَيْكَ بِالْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّمَا يَأْكُلُ الذِّئْبُ الْقَاصِيَةَ قَالَ ابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ السَّائِبُ يَعْنِي بِالْجَمَاعَةِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] Abu Darda has some free time, so he asks if he should go out or stay at home. If he is told to go out, he responds that he cannot find anything better for himself than what the Messenger of Allah has commanded us. We said, "O Messenger of Allah, the rich people go for Hajj and we are unable to go, they fight in battles and we are unable to fight." The Messenger of Allah then said, "Shall I not tell you about something that, if you do it, will be better for you than what any of them has done? It is to say 'Allahu Akbar' 33 times, 'Subhan Allah' 33 times, and 'Alhamdulillah' 33 times after every prayer."  

لَهُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ مُقِيمٌ فَنُسْرِحُ أَوْ ظَاعِنٌ فَنَعْلِفُ؟ قَالَ فَإِنْ قَالَ لَهُظَاعِنٌ قَالَ لَهُ مَا أَجِدُ لَكَ شَيْئًا خَيْرًا مِنْ شَيْءٍ أَمَرَنَا بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ذَهَبَ الْأَغْنِيَاءُ بِالْأَجْرِ يَحُجُّونَ وَلَا نَحُجُّ وَيُجَاهِدُونَ وَلَا نُجَاهِدُ وَكَذَا وَكَذَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَلَا أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى شَيْءٍ إِنْ أَخَذْتُمْ بِهِ جِئْتُمْ مِنْ أَفْضَلِ مَا يَجِيءُ بِهِ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ أَنْ تُكَبِّرُوا اللهَ أَرْبَعًا وَثَلَاثِينَ وَتُسَبِّحُوهُ ثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ وَتَحْمَدُوهُ ثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ فِي دُبُرِ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "Whoever recites ten verses from the end of Surah Al-Kahf will be protected from the trials of the Dajjal." Hajjaj asked, "Whoever recites the last ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf?"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ قَرَأَ عَشْرَ آيَاتٍ مِنْ آخِرِ الْكَهْفِ عُصِمَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الدَّجَّالِ قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ مَنْ قَرَأَالْعَشْرَ الْأَوَاخِرَ مِنْ سُورَةِ الْكَهْفِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is nothing heavier on the scale than good character."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ أَثْقَلُ فِي الْمِيزَانِ مِنْ خُلُقٍ حَسَنٍ  

[Machine] "And al-Khayyārāni said"  

وَقَالَ الْكَيْخَارَانِيِّ  

Perhaps he (the man accompanying her) intends to cohabit with her. They said: Yes. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I have decided to curse him with such a curse as may go along with him to his grave. How can he own him (the child to be born) and that is not lawful for him, and how can he take him as a servant for that is not lawful for him? (Using translation from Muslim 1441a)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ مَرَّ بِامْرَأَةٍ مُجِحٍّ عَلَى بَابِ فُسْطَاطٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَعَلَّهُ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُلِمَّ بِهَا؟ فَقَالُوا نَعَمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أَلْعَنَهُ لَعْنًا يَدْخُلُ مَعَهُ قَبْرَهُ كَيْفَ يُوَرِّثُهُ وَهُوَ لَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ؟ كَيْفَ يَسْتَخْدِمُهُ وَهُوَ لَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ؟  

[Machine] He asked the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , about this verse: "Those who believe and do righteous deeds, for them there will be good tidings in the worldly life." [Quran 10:64] He said, "It is the righteous dream that a Muslim sees or is shown."  

أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ {الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَكَانُوا يَتَّقُونَ لَهُمُ الْبُشْرَى فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا} [يونس 64] قَالَ هي الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ يَرَاهَا الْمُسْلِمُ أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ  

[Machine] I asked Abu Darda about a man from the people of Egypt, and he mentioned something from the Prophet ﷺ and something similar to it.  

عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مِصْرَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ فَذَكَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Can any of you not recite one third of the Quran every day?' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we are weaker than that and unable to do so.' He said, 'Verily, Allah has divided the Quran into three parts, so say: He is Allah, [who is] One,' which is one part of His parts.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْيَقْرَأَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ ثُلُثَ الْقُرْآنِ؟ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَحْنُ أَضْعَفُ مِنْ ذَاكَ وَأَعْجَزُ قَالَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ جَزَّأَ الْقُرْآنَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ فَقُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ جُزْءٌ مِنْ أَجْزَائِهِ  

[Machine] The translation of the passage is: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Is it difficult for any of you to recite and comprehend its meaning?'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ  

[Machine] Bukayr ibn Abi Sumeit informed us with this chain of narration, with its likeness being similar.  

حَدَّثَنَا بُكَيْرُ بْنُ أَبِي السُّمَيْطِ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ بِمِثْلِهِ سَوَاءً  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said: Shall I not inform you of the best of your actions, the purest of them before your King, and the highest in status for you, which are better for you than giving gold and silver or encountering your enemy and striking their necks and them striking yours? It is the remembrance of Allah.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ وَأَزْكَاهَا عِنْدَ مَلِيكِكُمْ وَأَرْفَعِهَا لِدَرَجَاتِكُمْ وَخَيْرٍ لَكُمْ مِنْ إِعْطَاءِ الذَّهَبِ وَالْوَرِقِ وَخَيْرٍ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنْ تَلْقَوْا عَدُوَّكُمْ فَتَضْرِبُوا رِقَابَهُمْ وَيَضْرِبُونَ رِقَابَكُمْ؟ ذِكْرُ اللهِ ﷻ  

[Machine] "What do you say about Allah's saying, 'For them is good tidings in the worldly life and in the Hereafter'? [Surah Yunus 64] He said, 'You have asked about something that I have not heard anyone ask about after a man asked the Messenger of Allah about it, ﷺ .' He said, 'Their good tidings in the worldly life are righteous dreams that a Muslim sees or that are seen for him. And their good tidings in the Hereafter is Paradise.'"  

مَا تَقُولُ فِي قَوْلِاللهِ {لَهُمُ الْبُشْرَى فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ} [يونس 64] قَالَ لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ مَا سَمِعْتُ أَحَدًا سَأَلَ عَنْهُ بَعْدَ رَجُلٍ سَأَلَ عَنْهُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ بُشْرَاهُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا الرُّؤْيَا الصَّالِحَةُ يَرَاهَا الْمُسْلِمُ أَوْ تُرَى لَهُ وَبُشْرَاهُمْ فِي الْآخِرَةِ الْجَنَّةُ  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "Whoever from my Ummah dies without associating anything with Allah, will enter Paradise, except for whom my companion Abi Darda dislikes."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ مَاتَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ إِلَّا أَنَّ فِيهِ وَإِنْ رَغِمَ أَنْفُ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ  

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "The parents are the middle gates of Paradise."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْوَالِدُ أَوْسَطُ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said: "He (the servant) got up one night and called his servant, but she took a long time to come. So he cursed her, and she said, 'Do not curse, for Abu Darda reported to me that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: Verily, the cursers will not be witnesses or intercessors on the Day of Resurrection."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ فَقَامَ لَيْلَةً فَدَعَا خَادِمَهُفَأَبْطَأَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَلَعَنَهَا فَقَالَتْ لَا تَلْعَنْ فَإِنَّ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ حَدَّثَنِي أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللَّعَّانِينَ لَا يَكُونُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ شُهَدَاءَ وَلَا شُفَعَاءَ  

He heard Abu Ad-Darda say: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked: 'Is there recitation in every prayer?' He said: 'Yes.' A man among the Ansar said: 'Is that obligatory?' He (Abu Ad-Darda) turned to me (Kathir), as I was closest of the people to him, and said: 'I think that if the Imam leads the people, that is sufficient for them.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 923)   

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ يَقُولُ سُئِلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَفِي كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ قِرَاءَةٌ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَجَبَتْ هَذِهِ فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ وَكُنْتُ أَقْرَبَ الْقَوْمِ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي مَا أَرَى الْإِمَامَ إِذَا أَمَّ الْقَوْمَ إِلَّا قَدْ كَفَاهُمْ  

[Machine] Muawiyah bought a cup made of silver for a price that was less than or equal to its value. Abu Darda said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade such transactions except if it is like for like.  

أَنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ اشْتَرَى سِقَايَةً مِنْ فِضَّةٍ بِأَقَلَّ مِنْ ثَمَنِهَا أَوْ أَكْثَرَ قَالَ فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ مِثْلِ هَذَا إِلَّا مِثْلًا بِمِثْلٍ  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ: He said, "There is nothing heavier in the scale than good character."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ أَثْقَلَ فِي الْمِيزَانِ مِنْ خُلُقٍ حَسَنٍ  

[Machine] I met Abu Darda and he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'The example of the one who gives in charity at the time of death is like the example of the one who seeks guidance when he is full.'"  

عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَثَلُ الَّذِي يُعْتِقُ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي يُهْدِي إِذَا شَبِعَ  

"A man from the Quraish broke a tooth of a man from the Ansar. So he appealed to Mu'awiyah against him. He said to Mu'awiyah: 'O Commander of the Believers! This person broke one of my teeth.' Mu'awiyah said: 'We will try to get satisfaction for you.' And the other person insisted that Mu'awiyah get him to agree [but he was not satisfied]. So Mu'awiyah said him: 'It is up to your companion.' Abu Ad-Darda' was sitting with him, so Abu Ad-Darda said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying [he said: 'My ears heard and my heart remembered]: "There is no man who is struck in his body and he forgives for it, except that Allah raises him a level and removes a sin from him.'" The Ansari said: 'Did you hear that from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' He said: "My ears heard it and my heart remembered it.' He said: 'Then I will leave it to him.' Mu'awiyah said: 'Surely you should not suffer.' So he ordered that he be given some wealth." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1393)   

كَسَرَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ سِنَّ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَاسْتَعْدَى عَلَيْهِمُعَاوِيَةَ فَقَالَ الْقُرَشِيُّ إِنَّ هَذَا داَقٌّ سِنِّي قَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ كَلَّا إِنَّا سَنُرْضِيهِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا أَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ شَأْنَكَ بِصَاحِبِكَ وَأَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ جَالِسٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يُصَابُ بِشَيْءٍ فِي جَسَدِهِ فَيَتَصَدَّقُ بِهِ إِلَّا رَفَعَهُ اللهُ بِهِ دَرَجَةً وَحَطَّ عَنْهُ بِهَا خَطِيئَةً قَالَ فَقَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ أَأَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ سَمِعَتْهُ أُذُنَايَ وَوَعَاهُ قَلْبِي يَعْنِي فَعَفَا عَنْهُ  

[Machine] To whom do you belong? I said, "I belong to the people of Kufa." He said, "Do you recite the recitation of Ibn Mas'ud?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Then recite, 'By the night when it covers'." I said, "By the night when it covers, and [by] the day when it appears, and [by] the male and female." He said, "That is how I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recite it." He said, "I think he laughed."  

لِي مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ؟ قُلْتُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَقْرَأُ عَلَيَّ قِرَاءَةَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ؟ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاقْرَأْ {وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى} قُلْتُ {وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى وَالذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى} [الليل 2] قَالَ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَؤُهَا قَالَ أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ فَضَحِكَ  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ, he said: "Whoever defends the honor of his Muslim brother, it is the right of Allah ﷻ to defend him from the fire of Hell on the Day of Judgment."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ رَدَّ عَنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ الْمُسْلِمِ كَانَ حَقًّا عَلَى اللهِ ﷻ أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَنْهُ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ felt thirsty, so he broke his fast and water was brought to him, and he performed ablution.  

اسْتَقَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَفْطَرَ فَأُتِيَ بِمَاءٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ  

[Machine] He arrived in Damascus and entered the mosque of Damascus and prayed two units of prayer in it and said, "O Allah, grant me a righteous companion." Then he came and sat with Abu Darda and Abu Darda said to him, "Who are you?" He said, "I am from the people of Kufa." Abu Darda said, "How did you hear Ibn Umm Abd reciting: 'By the night when it covers, and [by] the day when it appears?' He said, 'Alqamah and Zikr and An-Nisa.' Abu Darda said, 'I heard it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .' So they continued to question me until they doubted me. Then he said, 'Wasn't there among you the one who had the sleeping mat and the one who had the secret that no one else knew, and the one who was saved from the devil by the tongue of the Prophet ﷺ ?' The one with the sleeping mat was Ibn Mas'ud, and the one with the secret was Hudhaifah, and the one who was saved from the devil was 'Ammar.  

أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ الشَّامَ فَدَخَلَ مَسْجِدَ دِمَشْقَ فَصَلَّى فِيهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَقَالَ اللهُمَّ ارْزُقْنِي جَلِيسًا صَالِحًا قَالَ فَجَاءَ فَجَلَسَ إِلَى أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ قَالَ كَيْفَ سَمِعْتَ ابْنَ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ يَقْرَأُ وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى؟ قَالَ عَلْقَمَةُ وَالذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ لَقَدْ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَا زَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ حَتَّى شَكَّكُونِي ثُمَّ قَالَ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِيكُمْ صَاحِبُ الْوِسَادِ وَصَاحِبُ السِّرِّ الَّذِي لَا يَعْلَمُهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُهُ وَالَّذِي أُجِيرَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ عَلَى لِسَانِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ؟ وَصَاحِبُ الْوِسَادِ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَصَاحِبُ السِّرِّ حُذَيْفَةُ وَالَّذِي أُجِيرَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِعَمَّارٌ  

[Machine] Alqamah went to Sham and mentioned the saying.  

ذَهَبَ عَلْقَمَةُ إِلَى الشَّامِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever memorizes the first ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf will be protected from the trial of the Dajjal (the Antichrist)."  

أَنَّ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ حَفِظَ عَشْرَ آيَاتٍ مِنْ أَوَّلِ سُورَةِ الْكَهْفِ عُصِمَ مِنْ فِتْنَةِالدَّجَّالِ  

[Machine] Abu Darda' mentioned something similar.  

عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ  

[Machine] "Narrated by the Prophet of Allah ﷺ , he mentioned its likeness, then returned to the Hadith of Abdus Samad. He said: "Hammam narrated to us, from Qatadah, from Salim, from the Hadith of Ma'dan, from Abu Ad-Darda', who conveyed from the Prophet of Allah ﷺ that he said: 'Whoever memorizes ten verses from Surah Al-Kahf...'"  

عَنْ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ حَدِيثِ مَعْدَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ يَرْوِيهِ عَنْ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ حَفِظَعَشْرَ آيَاتٍ مِنْ سُورَةِ الْكَهْفِ  

"Whoever protects his brother's honor, Allah protects his face from the Fire on the Day of Resurrection." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1931)   

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ رَدَّ عَنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ رَدَّ اللهُ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ النَّارَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ  

[Machine] On the authority of Alqamah, he said: "I visited Sham (Syria) and entered the mosque, where I prayed two Rak'ahs (units of prayer) and said: 'O Allah, make it easy for me to find a righteous companion.' Then he mentioned the meaning of the hadith of Shu'bah."  

عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ قَالَأَتَيْتُ الشَّامَ فَدَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّيْتُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَقُلْتُ اللهُمَّ يَسِّرْ لِي جَلِيسًا صَالِحًا فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَى حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ  

Abū al-Qāsim ﷺ said, "I never heard being called with this junta before this or after this. Allah Almighty said: ‘O Jesus, I will raise a nation after you who will praise Me and be grateful to Me when I bestow what they love, and they will expect reward and be patient when I afflict them with what they hate, although they had no forbearance or knowledge.’ Jesus said: ‘O Lord, how can this be if they had no forbearance or knowledge?’ Allah said: ‘I will give them from My forbearance and My knowledge.’"  

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «مَا سَمِعْتُهُ يُكَنِّيهِ قَبْلَهَا وَلَا بَعْدَهَا. يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يَقُولُ: يَا عِيسَى إِنِّي بَاعِثٌ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ أُمَّةً: إِنْ أَصَابَهُمْ مَا يُحِبُّونَ حَمِدُوا اللهَ وَشَكَرُوا، وَإِنْ أَصَابَهُمْ مَا يَكْرَهُونَ احْتَسَبُوا وَصَبَرُوا، وَلَا حِلْمَ وَلَا عِلْمَ. قَالَ يَا رَبِّ كَيْفَ هَذَا لَهُمْ وَلَا حِلْمَ وَلَا عِلْمَ؟ قَالَ: أُعْطِيهِمْ مِنْ حِلْمِي وَعِلْمِي.»  

[Machine] "I visited Abu Darda in his illness, at the time of his death. He asked me, 'O nephew, what brought you to this city? What is the reason?' I said, 'I came here for no reason, except to maintain the connection between you and my father, Abdullah bin Salam.' Abu Darda said, 'This is a terrible moment of falsehood! I heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , saying, "Whoever performs ablution and performs it well, then stands and prays two or four rak'ahs and doubts [whether they are two or four], it is easy for him to remember [Allah] and show humility [in the prayer]. Then he seeks forgiveness from Allah and Allah forgives him."'" Abdullah said, "Abu Darda narrated this to us, and he was narrated to by Sa'id bin Abu Rabee' Al-Samman, who was narrated to by Sadqah bin Abu Sahl Al-Hunawi. Abdullah and Ahmad bin Abdullah Al-Maliki were confused about the name of the sheikh, and Saalih bin Abu Sadqah said, 'Indeed, he is Sadqah bin Abu Sahl Al-Hunawi.'"  

أَتَيْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي قُبِضَ فِيهِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا ابْنَ أَخِي مَا أَعْمَدَكَ فِي هَذَا الْبَلَدِ أَوْ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ لَا إِلَّا صِلَةُ مَا كَانَ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ وَالِدِي عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ بِئْسَ سَاعَةُ الْكَذِبِ هَذِهِ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَأَحْسَنَ وُضُوءَهُ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ أَوْ أَرْبَعًا شَكَّ سَهْلٌ يُحْسِنُ فِيهِمَا الذِّكْرَ وَالْخُشُوعَ ثُمَّ اسْتَغْفَرَ اللهَ ﷻ غَفَرَ لَهُ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي الرَّبِيعِ السَّمَّانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سَهْلٍ الْهُنَائِيُّ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ وَهِمَ فِي اسْمِ الشَّيْخِ فَقَالَ سَهْلُ بْنُ أَبِي صَدَقَةَ وَإِنَّمَا هُوَ صَدَقَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سَهْلٍ الْهُنَائِيُّ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Whoever dies while not associating any partners with Allah will be admitted to Paradise. And I have not mentioned this to you except at the time of my death. And the witnessing martyrs are those who testify to it. Abu Ad-Darda then said, 'My brother has spoken the truth, and he would only inform you of this at the time of his death.'  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ مَاتَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا جَعَلَهُ اللهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَمَا كُنْتُ أُحَدِّثُكُمُوهُ إِلَّا عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَالشَّهِيدُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ عُوَيْمِرٌ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ فَأَتَوْا أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ صَدَقَ أَخِي وَمَا كَانَ يُحَدِّثُكُمْ بِهِ إِلَّا عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Your love for a thing causes blindness and deafness. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 5130)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ حُبُّكَ الشَّيْءَ يُعْمِي ويُصِمُّ  

[Machine] Alqamah Al-Shami came and prayed two units of prayer. He said, "O Allah, grant me a righteous companion." So, I sat next to a man and he turned out to be Abu Al-Darda. He asked me, "Who are you?" I said, "I am from the people of Kufa." He asked, "Do you know how Abdullah used to recite this verse?" [By the night when it covers, and by the day when it appears, and by He who created the male and female.] So, I said, "He used to recite it as: 'By the night when it covers, and by the day when it appears, and by the male and female.'" He said, "That is how I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recite it." He continued to question me until I began to doubt myself. Then, he said, "Isn't among you the one who uses the cushion and the tooth stick?" He meant Abdullah ibn Mas'ud. "Isn't among you the one whom Allah protected from the tongue of his Prophet from the Devil?" He meant Ammar ibn Yasar. "Isn't among you the one who knows the secret that no one else knows?" He meant Hudhayfah.  

أَتَى عَلْقَمَةُ الشَّامَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ اللهُمَّ وَفِّقْ لِي جَلِيسًا صَالِحًا قَالَ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى رَجُلٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ؟ قُلْتُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَدْرِي كَيْفَ كَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ يَقْرَأُ هَذَا الْحَرْفَ؟ {وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنْثَى} [الليل 2] فَقُلْتُ كَانَ يَقْرَؤُهَا وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى وَالذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى فَقَالَ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَؤُهَا فَمَا زَالَ بِي هَؤُلَاءِ حَتَّى كَادُوا يُشَكِّكُونِي ثُمَّ قَالَ أَلَيْسَ فِيكُمْ صَاحِبُ الْوِسَادِ وَالسِّوَاكِ يَعْنِي عَبْدَ اللهِابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ أَلَيْسَ فِيكُمُ الَّذِي أَجَارَهُ اللهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ يَعْنِي عَمَّارَ بْنَ يَاسِرٍ أَلَيْسَ فِيكُمُ الَّذِي يَعْلَمُ السِّرَّ وَلَا يَعْلَمُهُ غَيْرُهُ يَعْنِي حُذَيْفَةَ  

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Allah, the Exalted, says: Son of Adam, do not be helpless in performing four rak'ahs for Me at the beginning of the day: I will supply what you need till the end of it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1289)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يَقُولُ ابْنَ آدَمَ لَا تَعْجِزْنَّ مِنْ أَرْبَعِ رَكَعَاتٍ أَوَّلَ النَّهَارِ أَكْفِكَ آخِرَهُ  

My friend (i.e. the Prophet) instructed me to observe three practices which I never leave: he instructed me to fast three days every month, and not to sleep but after observing the witr, and to observe supererogatory prayer in the forenoon while traveling and while resident. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1433)  

أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي ﷺ بِثَلَاثٍ لَا أَدَعُهُنَّ لِشَيْءٍ أَوْصَانِي بِصِيَامِ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ وَأَنْ لَا أَنَامَ إِلَّا عَلَى وَتْرٍ وَسُبْحَةِ الضُّحَى فِي الْحَضَرِوَالسَّفَرِ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "The parent is the middle door of Paradise, so protect that door or leave it."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْوَالِدُ أَوْسَطُ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ فَاحْفَظْ ذَلِكَ الْبَابَ أَوْ دَعْهُ
