[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The intention of a believer is better than his action, and the action of a hypocrite is better than his intention. Each person will be rewarded according to their intention. So, when a believer performs an act, there is a light in his heart."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «نِيَّةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ وَعَمَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ نِيَّتِهِ وَكُلٌّ يَعْمَلُ عَلَى نِيَّتِهِ فَإِذَا عَمِلَ الْمُؤْمِنُ عَمَلًا نَارَ فِي قَلْبِهِ نُورٌ»  

“You will most certainly follow the ways of those who came before you, arm’s length by arm’s length, forearm’s length by forearm’s length, hand span by hand span, until even if they entered a hole of a mastigure (lizard) you will enter it too.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, (do you mean) the Jews and the Christians?” He said: “Who else?” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3994)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَتَتَّبِعُنَّ سُنَنَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ شِبْرًا بِشِبْرٍ وَذِرَاعًا بِذِرَاعٍ حَتَّى لَوْ دَخَلُوا جُحْرَ ضَبٍّ لَاتَّبَعْتُمُوهُمْ» قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى؟ قَالَ «فَمَنْ إِلَّا الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى»  

[Machine] "From the Prophet ﷺ , he said: 'No Zandiqah ever existed without having disbelief in fate before it.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا كَانَتْ زَنْدَقَةٌ إِلَّا كَانَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ التَّكْذِيبُ بِالْقَدَرِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled, and they said, "O Messenger of Allah, we have seen you smile, but we have never seen you smile like this." He said, "From a people who are brought to paradise in chains of iron."  

اسْتَضْحَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْنَاكَ ضَحِكْتَ ضِحْكًا مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ ضَحِكْتَ مِثْلَهُ فَقَالَ «مِنْ قَوْمٍ يُؤْتَى بِهِمْ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ فِي كُبُولِ الْحَدِيدِ»  

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Some people open the door to good and close the door to evil, and some people open the door to evil and close the door to good. Glad tidings to those in whose hands Allah places they keys to good, and woe to those in whose hands Allah places the keys to evil.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 237)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ عِنْدَهُ خَزَائِنُ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ فَطُوبَى لِمَنْ جَعَلَهُ مِفْتَاحًا لِلْخَيْرِ مِغْلَاقًا لِلشَّرِّ وَوَيْلٌ لِمَنْ جَعَلَهُ اللهُ مِفْتَاحًا لِلشَّرِّ مِغْلَاقًا لِلْخَيْرِ»  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ was invited to the feast of a man from the Ansar, so we accompanied the Prophet ﷺ when he was invited. He served us bread made from barley, and then the servant who was serving us food and giving us drinks said, 'These are for the brides who are present.' "  

«دُعِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى وَلِيمَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقُمْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حِينَ دُعِيَ فَأَطْعَمَنَا خُبْزًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْخَادِمَ الَّتِي تُطْعِمُنَا الطَّعَامَ وتَسْقِينَا الشَّرَابَ لَلْعَرُوسُ الَّتِي بِهَا»  

[Machine] Anciently, that used to be when we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and there was a matter to be resolved among the people of Quba. So, the Prophet ﷺ went to them to reconcile between them. He slowed down among the people, and Bilal said to Abu Bakr, "Shouldn't I establish the prayer?" Abu Bakr said, "Do as you wish." So, Bilal led the prayer, and the people started to move Abu Bakr forward. While Abu Bakr was praying, the Prophet ﷺ arrived and started rearranging the rows until he stood behind Abu Bakr. They began to clap, and Abu Bakr, who used to not turn around during prayer, looked back when they clapped. So, when they clapped more, they realized that the Prophet ﷺ was standing behind him. The Prophet ﷺ gestured to Abu Bakr to continue praying as he was, and then he stepped back. When the Prophet ﷺ finished, he asked Abu Bakr, "What prevented you from praying when I commanded you not to?" Abu Bakr replied, "It is not fitting for the son of Abu Quhafa to precede the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "What is the matter with the clapping during prayer? Verily, glorification is for men and clapping is for women."  

قَدِيمٌ قَدْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ جِيءَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ قَدْ صَارَ بَيْنَ أَهْلِ قُبَاءَ شَيْءٌ فَانْطَلَقَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَيْهِمْ لِيُصْلِحَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَبْطَأَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَقَالَ بِلَالٌ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ أَلَا أُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ؟ قَالَ مَا شِئْتَ فَأَقَامَ فَقَدَّمَ النَّاسُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَبَيْنَا هُوَ يُصَلِّي أَقْبَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يَشُقُّ الصُّفُوفَ حَتَّى قَامَ خَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ وَجَعَلُوا يُصَفِّحُونَ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لَا يَلْتَفِتُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمَّا أَكْثَرُوا الْتَفَتَ فَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَائِمٌ خَلْفَهُ فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ كَمَا هُوَ فَنَكَصَ إِلَى وَرَائِهِ وَتَقَدَّمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ «مَا مَنَعَكَ إِذْ أَمَرْتُكَ أَنْ لَا تَكُونَ صَلَّيْتَ؟» قَالَ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا شَأْنُ التَّصْفِيقِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ إِنَّمَا التَّسْبِيحُ لِلرِّجَالِ وَالتَّصْفِيقُ لِلنِّسَاءِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was approached by a woman who offered herself to him. He remained silent. Then a man stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, if you do not have a need for her, then marry her to me." The Prophet asked him, "Do you have anything to give in return?" The man replied, "No, by Allah, O Messenger of Allah." The Prophet then asked him, "Do you recite anything from the Quran?" The man said, "Yes." The Prophet asked, "What do you recite?" The man mentioned a few Surahs. The Prophet said, "I have given her to you in exchange for what you have from the Quran." Then, I saw him walking away and she was following him.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ فَوَهَبَتْ نَفْسَهَا لَهُ فَصَمَتَ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ بِهَا حَاجَةٌ فَزَوِّجْنِيهَا؟ فَقَالَ «أَلَكَ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ لَا وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «فَهَلْ تَقْرَأُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ شَيْئًا؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ سُورَةَ كَذَا وَسُورَةَ كَذَا فَقَالَ «قَدْ أَمْلَكْتُكَهَا بِمَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ» فَرَأَيْتُهُ يَمْضِي وَهِيَ تَتْبَعُهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah is generous and loves generosity. He loves noble traits and detests their lack."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ كَرِيمٌ يُحِبُّ الْكَرَمَ وَيُحِبُّ مَعَالِيَ الْأَخْلَاقِ وَيَكْرَهُ سَفْسَافَهَا»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Seventy thousand or seven hundred thousand of my Ummah (nation) will enter Paradise without being held accountable."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا أَوْ سَبْعُمِائَةِ أَلْفٍ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to the people of Bani Amr ibn Awf while they were sitting together. The Asr prayer was about to begin, so Bilal called out, "Stand up, O Abu Bakr, and lead the people in prayer." Thus, Abu Bakr stood up and led the people in prayer.

Then, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived and saw that the rows were not properly aligned. He went towards them, straightened the rows, and shook hands with the people. Abu Bakr was so focused in his prayer that he could hardly turn his head. The people started to make more sounds of tasbih (praising Allah) and Abu Bakr turned around and saw that it was the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who was straightening the rows.

Abu Bakr moved back and the Prophet ﷺ gestured to him to stand in his previous position. Abu Bakr moved back and the Prophet ﷺ led the people in prayer. After he finished his prayer, he asked Abu Bakr, "O Abu Bakr, what prevented you from standing when I gestured to you?" Abu Bakr replied, "It was not appropriate for the son of Abu Quhafa to lead the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in prayer."

Then, the Prophet ﷺ said to the people, "What happened to you when I gestured to you to straighten the rows? Praise Allah for the tasbih is for the women."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَى بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ فِي لِحَاءٍ كَانَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَحَضَرَتْ صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ فَقَالَ بِلَالٌ أُقِيمُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَتُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ فَأَقَامَ بِلَالٌ وَتَقَدَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَخْرِقُ الصُّفُوفَ فَصَفَّحَ النَّاسُ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لَا يَكَادُ يَلْتَفِتُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَأَكْثَرَ الْقَوْمُ التَّصْفِيحَ فَالْتَفَتَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَخْرِقُ الصُّفُوفَ فَتَأَخَّرَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ مَكَانَكَ فَتَأَخَّرَ وَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ «يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا لَكَ حِينَ أَوْمَأْتُ إِلَيْكَ أَقِمْ مَكَانَكَ لَمْ تَقُمْ؟» قَالَ مَا كَانَ لِابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ أَنْ يَؤُمَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلْقَوْمِ «مَا لَكُمْ إِذَا نَابَكُمْ أَمْرٌ صَفَّحْتُمْ؟ سَبِّحُوا إِنَّمَا التَّصْفِيحُ لِلنِّسَاءِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Compensate them, even if it is with a simple cane." This refers to marriage.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «عَوِّضُوهُنَّ وَلَوْ بِسَوْطٍ» يَعْنِي فِي التَّزْوِيجِ  

"There was some fighting among Banu 'Amr bin 'Awf, and news of that reached the Prophet ﷺ. He prayed Zuhr, then he went to them to reconcile between them. Then he said to Bilal: 'O Bilal, if the time for Asr comes and I have not come back, then tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer.' When the time (for Asr) came, Bilal called the Adhan, then the Iqamah, then he said to Abu Bakr: 'Go forward. So Abu Bakr went forward and started to pray. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and started passing through the rows of people until he stood behind Abu Bakr, and the people clapped. Abu Bakr was such that whenever he started praying, he would never glance sideways, but when he noticed that the clapping persisted he turned around. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gestured to him to carry on praying. Abu Bakr praised Allah the Mighty and Sublime for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ having told him to continue. Then Abu Bakr moved backward on his heels, and when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw that, he came forward and led the people in prayer. When he completed the prayer he said: 'O Abu Bakr, when I gestured to you, what kept you from continuing (to lead the people)?' He said: 'It does not befit the son of Abu Quhafah to lead the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in prayer.' And he (the Prophet) said to the people: 'If you notice something (during the prayer), men should say Subhan Allah and women should clap.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 793)   

كَانَ قِتَالٌ بَيْنَ بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَصَلَّى الظُّهْرَ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُمْ لِيُصْلِحَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَقَالَ «يَا بِلَالُ إِنْ حَضَرَتِ الْعَصْرُ وَلَمْ آتِكَ فَمُرْ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ» فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتْهُ صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ أَذَّنَ وَأَقَامَ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَتَقَدَّمَ قَالَ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَشَقَّ بِالنَّاسِ حَتَّى قَامَ خَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فِي الصَّفِّ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ وَصَفَّحَ الْقَوْمُ فَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ لَمْ يَلْتَفِتْ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى التَّصْفِيحَ لَا يُمْسِكُ عَنْهُ الْتَفَتَ فَرَأَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَلْفَهُ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنِ امْضِهِ وَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا قَالَ فَلَبِثَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ هُنَيْهَةً فَحَمِدَ اللهَ عَلَى قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ مَشَى الْقَهْقَرَى فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ تَقَدَّمَ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ «يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا مَنَعَكَ إِذْ أَوْمَأْتُ إِلَيْكَ أَنْ لَا تَكُونَ مَضَيْتَ؟» قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ أَنْ يَؤُمَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ وَقَالَ لِلْقَوْمِ «إِذَا رَابَكُمْ أَمَرٌ فَلْيُسَبِّحِ الرِّجَالُ ولِتُصَفِّقِ النِّسَاءُ» وَاللَّفْظُ لِحَدِيثِ عَارِمٍ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "When Allah grants His servant the age of sixty, He excuses him and extends his life to him."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا بَلَّغَ اللهُ الْعَبْدَ سِتِّينَ فَقَدْ أَعْذَرَ إِلَيْهِ وَأَبْلَغَ إِلَيْهِ فِي الْعُمُرِ»  

[Machine] A woman came to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and offered herself to him. He said, "I don't have any need for women today." A man then said, "O Messenger of Allah, marry her to me." The Prophet asked him, "What do you have?" The man replied, "I have nothing." The Prophet then said, "Give her even if it is just an iron ring." The man said, "I have nothing." The Prophet asked him, "Do you have anything from the Quran?" The man replied, "Yes, I have such and such." The Prophet then said, "I have married her to you in exchange for what you have from the Quran." And the wording of this hadith is from the narration of 'Arim.  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَعَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ «مَا لِي فِي النِّسَاءِ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ حَاجَةٍ» فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ زَوِّجْنِيهَا فَقَالَ «مَا عِنْدَكَ؟» فَقَالَ مَا عِنْدِي مِنْ شَيْءٍ فَقَالَ «أَعْطِهَا وَلَوْ خَاتَمًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ» قَالَ مَا عِنْدِي مِنْ شَيْءٍ قَالَ «فَمَا عِنْدَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ؟» قَالَ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ «فَقَدْ مَلَّكْتُكَهَا بِمَا عِنْدَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ» وَاللَّفْظُ لِحَدِيثِ عَارِمٍ  

[Machine] There was a young man from the Ansar who was newly married. He went out with the Prophet ﷺ on a military expedition. On his way back, he looked towards his house and saw a woman standing in the room. He pointed his spear towards her and asked her to let him in to see what was inside the house. When he entered, he found a snake coiled around his bed. He killed the snake with his spear, but as a result, both the snake and the man died. This incident was mentioned to the Prophet ﷺ , who said, "Verily, there are jinn in Madinah who have embraced Islam. Or he said, 'These houses have their inhabitants.' So, when you see anything from them, seek refuge in Allah from it. Then, if it returns, kill it."  

أَنَّ فَتًى مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ كَانَ حَدِيثَ عَهْدٍ بِعُرْسٍ فَخَرَجَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةٍ فَرَجَعَ مِنَ الطَّرِيقِ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِامْرَأَةٍ قَائِمَةٍ فِي الْحُجْرَةِ فَبَوَّأَ إِلَيْهَا الرُّمْحَ فَقَالَتِ ادْخُلِ انْظُرْ مَا فِي الْبَيْتِ فَدَخَلَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِحَيَّةٍ مُتَطَوِّقَةٍ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ فَانْتَظَمَهَا بِرُمْحِهِ ثُمَّ رَكَزَ الرُّمْحَ فِي الدَّارِ وانْتَفَضَتِ الْحَيَّةُ وانْتَفَضَ الرَّجُلُ فَمَاتَتِ الْحَيَّةُ وَمَاتَ الرَّجُلُ فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ نَزَلَ الْمَدِينَةَ جِنٌّ مُسْلِمُونَ أَوْ قَالَ لِهَذِهِ الْبُيُوتِ عَوَامِرُ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا فَتَعَوَّذُوا مِنْهُ فَإِنْ عَادَ فَاقْتُلُوهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said about Paradise: "There is a gate called Riyan, where the fasting ones will be called and told to enter. Once they enter, the gate will be closed and no one else will enter with them.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِلْجَنَّةِ بَابٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ الرَّيَّانُ يُدْعَى إِلَيْهِ الصَّائِمُونَ يُقَالُ لَهُمْ هَلُمُّوا فَإِذَا دَخَلُوا أَغْلَقُوا ذَلِكَ الْبَابَ فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ مَعَهُمْ غَيْرُهُمْ  

[Machine] The companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray while their clothes were tightly tied around their necks due to the tightness of their clothes.  

«كَانَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلُّونَ وَهُمْ مُعْقِدُونَ أُزُرَهُمْ فِي أَرْقَابِهِمْ مِنْ ضِيقِ الْأُزُرِ»  

[Machine] A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and offered herself to him. He remained silent and did not respond, so she stood there for a long time until we pitied her because of how long she had been standing. Then a man stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, marry her to me." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do you have anything to give as mahr (dowry)?" The man replied, "I have nothing except my waistbelt (shamlah), which I am wearing." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do you agree to marry her with what you have from the Quran?" The man said, "Yes, by Allah." The Prophet ﷺ then told him, "Go and search even if it is just an iron ring." So the man went and stayed for as long as Allah willed. Then he returned and said, "I could not find anything, not even an iron ring." The Prophet ﷺ then asked him, "What do you have from the Quran?" The man mentioned certain verses. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "I have married you to her based on what you have from the Quran."  

جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَعَرَضَتْ عَلَيْهِ نَفْسَهَا فَسَكَتَ فَقَامَتْ حَتَّى رَثَيْنَا لَهَا مِنْ طُولِ الْقِيَامِ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ زَوِّجْنِيهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ «مَا تُصْدِقُهَا؟» قَالَ هَذِهِ الشَّمْلَةَ الَّتِي عَلَيَّ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي غَيْرُهَا قَدْ عَقَدَهَا عَلَى صَدْرِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ «أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ عَرَّسْتَ أَعِنْدَكَ غَيْرُهَا؟» قَالَ لَا وَاللهِ قَالَ «اذْهَبْ فَاطْلُبْ وَلَوْ خَاتَمًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ» فَذَهَبَ فَمَكَثَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَقَالَ مَا وَجَدْتُ خَاتَمًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ فَقَالَ «مَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ؟» قَالَ آيَةُ كَذَا وَآيَةُ كَذَا قَالَ فَقَالَ «فَقَدْ زَوَّجْتُكَ عَلَى مَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is a tree in Paradise (which is so big and huge that) if a rider travels in its shade for one hundred years, he would not be able to cross it." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3251)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ شَجَرَةً يَسِيرُ الرَّاكِبُ فِي ظِلِّهَا مِائَةَ عَامٍ لَا يَقْطَعُهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, the people of Paradise will see the dwellers of the chambers just as you see a star in the sky."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ لَيَتَرَاءَوْنَ أَهْلَ الْغُرَفِ كَمَا تَتَرَاءَوْنَ الْكَوْكَبَ فِي أُفُقِ السَّمَاءِ»  

[Machine] A man from the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away, and the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ began to praise him and mention his worship. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained silent. When they stopped, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Did he frequently mention death?" They said, "No." He said, "Then did he often give up many of his desires?" They said, "No." He said, "Your companion has not reached what you have reached."  

مَاتَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يُثْنُونَ عَلَيْهِ وَيَذْكُرُونَ مِنْ عِبَادَتِهِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَاكِتٌ فَلَمَّا سَكَتُوا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «هَلْ كَانَ يُكْثِرُ ذِكْرَ الْمَوْتِ؟» قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «فَهَلْ كَانَ يَدَعُ كَثِيرًا مِمَّا يَشْتَهِي؟» قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «مَا بَلَغَ صَاحِبُكُمْ كَثِيرًا مِمَّا تَذْهَبُونَ إِلَيْهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The one who guides others to goodness is like the one who does it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الدَّالُّ عَلَى الْخَيْرِ كَفَاعِلِهِ»  

[Machine] "We used to pray Friday prayer with the Prophet ﷺ, then we would return and say."  

«كُنَّا نُصَلِّي الْجُمُعَةَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ نَرْجِعُ فَنَقِيلُ»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The people will remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1957)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَزَالُ النَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْفِطْرَ»  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought a drink, with a boy on his right and elders on his left. He drank and then gave the boy a turn."  

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أُتِيَ بِشَرَابٍ وَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ غُلَامٌ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَشْيَاخٌ فَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ نَاوَلَ الْغُلَامَ»  

[Machine] "We were with the Prophet ﷺ in the trench, while we were digging and he was moving the soil. He said, 'O Allah, there is no life except the life of the Hereafter, so forgive the Ansar and the Muhajireen.'"  

كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الْخَنْدَقِ وَنَحْنُ نَحْفُرُ وَهُوَ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ لَا عَيْشَ إِلَّا عَيْشُ الْآخِرَةِ فَاغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day of Khaybar, "I will give the flag tomorrow to a man through whom Allah will grant victory." So the people the next day all hoped that he would give it to them. He asked, "Where is Ali?" They said, "He has sore eyes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Send for him." So he was brought and the Messenger of Allah applied his saliva in his eyes and prayed for him, and he was immediately cured. Then he handed him the flag and said, "Advance and do not turn back until you reach their people and invite them to accept Islam." So Ali advanced, then he turned back and said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we fight them until they say 'There is no god but Allah?'" The Messenger of Allah said, "Call them to say 'There is no god but Allah' as soon as you reach them, for an individual coming to Islam through your invitation is better for you than red camels."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ «لَأُعْطِيَنَّ الرَّايَةَ غَدًا رَجُلًا يَفْتَحُ اللهُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ» فَغَدَا النَّاسُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كُلُّهُمْ يَرْجُونَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُ الرَّايَةَ فَقَالَ «أَيْنَ عَلِيٌّ؟» قَالُوا هُوَ شَاكِي الْعَيْنِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «أَرْسِلُوا بِهِ» فَأُتِيَ بِهِ فَبَسَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ وَدَعَا فَبَرَأَ ثُمَّ دَفَعَ إِلَيْهِ الرَّايَةَ فَقَالَ «انْفُذْ وَلَا تَلْتَفِتْ حَتَّى تَنْزِلَ بِالْقَوْمِ فَتَدْعُوَهُمْ إِلَيَّ» فَنَفَذَ عَلِيٌّ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنُقَاتِلُهُمْ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ قَالَ «عَلَى رِسْلِكَ إِذَا جِئْتَهُمْ فَادْعُهُمْ إِلَى قَوْلِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ فَلَأَنْ يُسْلِمَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى يَدِكَ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ»  

[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when a woman came to him and presented herself to him, so he lowered his gaze from her and then raised it. He did not send her back, so a man from his companions said, "O Messenger of Allah, marry her to me." He said, "Do you have anything?" The man said, "No, by Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I do not have anything." He said, "Not even an iron ring?" He said, "No, not even an iron ring, but I give her my clothing, and I will keep half of it." He said, "No, but do you have anything from the Quran?" He said, "Yes." He said, "Then go, for I have married her to you according to what you have from the Quran."  

كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ تَعْرِضُ نَفْسَهَا عَلَيْهِ فَخَفَّضَ فِيهَا الْبَصَرَ وَرَفَعَهُ فَلَمْ يُرْجِعْهَا فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ زَوِّجْنِيهَا قَالَ «هَلْ عِنْدَكَ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ لَا وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا عِنْدِي مِنْ شَيْءٍ قَالَ «وَلَا خَاتَمٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ؟» قَالَ وَلَا خَاتَمٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَلَكِنْ أَشُقُّ بُرْدِي هَذِهِ وأُعْطِيهَا وَآخُذُ النِّصْفَ فَقَالَ «لَا وَلَكِنْ مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «اذْهَبْ فَقَدْ زَوَّجْتُكَهَا عَلَى مَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ»  

Sahl b. Sa'd reported it from Messenger of Allah ﷺ that a person performs deeds like the deeds of the people of Paradise apparently before people and he would be amongst the dwellers of Hell and a person acts apparently like the people of Hell, but (in fact) he would be among the dwellers of Paradise. (Using translation from Muslim 112b)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فِيمَا يَبْدُو لِلنَّاسِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فِيمَا يَبْدُو لِلنَّاسِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ»  

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , holding up his middle finger and pointing to the finger next to the thumb, and he said, "I and the Hour are like this."  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ بِأَصْبُعِهِ الْوُسْطَى وَالَّتِي تَلِي الْإِبْهَامَ «بُعِثْتُ أَنَا وَالسَّاعَةُ هَكَذَا»  

“Going out in the morning in the cause of Allah, or in the evening, is more virtuous than the world and what is in it.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2755)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «غَدْوَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَوْ رَوْحَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was brought a drink, so he drank from it and then handed it to a boy on his right and on his left the elders.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أُتِيَ بِشَرَابٍ فَشَرِبَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ نَاوَلَهُ غُلَامًا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ الْأَشْيَاخُ  

[Machine] There was an argument between two of the Ansar, from the clan of Bani Amr ibn Auf, to the point where they started throwing stones at each other. The scream was heard by the Prophet ﷺ, while Bilal had already given the call for the Dhuhr prayer. The Prophet ﷺ went to reconcile between them, but he was delayed. He sent Bilal to Abu Bakr, asking him to lead the prayer until he returned. Abu Bakr stood up and started leading the prayer. When the people noticed the Prophet ﷺ standing behind Abu Bakr, they started making a commotion. Abu Bakr, however, did not turn around in his prayer. When the commotion increased, he turned around and saw that it was the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He stepped back, giving the Prophet ﷺ space to lead the prayer. After completing the prayer, the Prophet ﷺ went up to Abu Bakr and asked him, "What prevented you from coming forward when I instructed you to do so?" Abu Bakr replied, "It was not befitting for Allah to see Ibn Abi Quhafa (Abu Bakr) leading the prayer while His Messenger ﷺ was present." Abu Bakr then turned towards the people and said, "O people, what is the matter with you? When something happens during your prayer, you turn around in confusion, while the making of gestures is for women and the glorification is for men."  

كَانَ بَيْنَ حَيَّيْنِ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ مِنْ بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ كَلَامٌ حَتَّى تَقَاذَفُوا بِالْحِجَارَةِ فَجَاءَ الصَّرِيخُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَدْ أَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ بِصَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ فَانْطَلَقَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِيُصْلِحَ بَيْنَهُمَا فَأَبْطَأَ فَأَتَى بِلَالٌ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ أَتُصَلِّي حَتَّى أُقِيمَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَقَامَ بِلَالٌ وَتَقَدَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَشُقُّ الصُّفُوفَ حَتَّى قَامَ خَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَأَقْبَلَ النَّاسُ عَلَى التَّصْفِيحِ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لَا يَلْتَفِتُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلَمَّا أَكْثَرُوا الْتَفَتَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَجَعَ يَمْشِي الْقَهْقَرَى فَدَفَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلَاةَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ «مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَتَقَدَّمَ إِذْ أَمَرْتُكَ؟» قَالَ مَا كَانَ اللهُ لِيَرَى ابْنَ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ أَنْ يَؤُمَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَقَالَ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مَا لَكُمْ إِذَا نَابَكُمْ أَمْرٌ فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ أَقْبَلْتُمْ عَلَى التَّصْفِيحِ إِنَّمَا التَّصْفِيحُ لِلنِّسَاءِ وَالتَّسْبِيحُ لِلرِّجَالِ»  

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "A morning spent in the way of Allah, or an evening spent in the way of Allah, is better than the world and everything in it. And a spot where the whip of one of you is placed in Paradise is better than the world and everything in it."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَغَدْوَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَوْ رَوْحَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا وَمَوْضِعُ سَوْطِ أَحَدِكُمْ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever safeguards what is between his jaws and his thighs, Paradise will be his."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ حَفِظَ مَا بَيْنَ لِحْيَيْهِ وفَخِذَيْهِ فَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ»  

[Machine] A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and offered herself to him, but he remained silent. She then presented herself to him again, and he remained silent. He said, "I saw her standing or leaning, offering herself to him while he remained silent." A man from the Ansar (helpers) stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, if you have no need for her, then marry her to me." He said, "Do you have anything to offer?" The man said, "No, by Allah, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Then go and find something, even if it is just a ring made of iron." So the man went and then returned, saying, "By Allah, I did not find anything except for this garment of mine, which is the most precious thing I have between me and her." The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no favor for you in your garment, so have you memorized anything from the Quran?" The man said, "Yes." The Prophet ﷺ asked, "What?" The man mentioned a specific chapter. The Prophet ﷺ said, "You have indeed given her away with what you have from the Quran." Then, I saw him walking while she was following him.  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَوَهَبَتْ نَفْسَهَا لَهُ فَصَمَتَ ثُمَّ عَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَيْهِ فَصَمَتَ قَالَ فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهَا قَائِمَةً مَلِيًّا أَوْ هَوِيًّا تَعْرِضُ نَفْسَهَا عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ صَامِتٌ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ أَحْسَبُهُ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ بِهَا حَاجَةٌ فَزَوِّجْنِيهَا فَقَالَ «أَلَكَ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ لَا وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «فَاذْهَبْ فَالْتَمِسْ شَيْئًا وَلَوْ خَاتَمًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ» فَذَهَبَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَقَالَ وَاللهِ مَا وَجَدْتُ شَيْئًا غَيْرَ ثَوْبِي هَذَا أَشُقُّهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا فِي ثَوْبِكَ فَضْلٌ عَنْكَ فَهَلْ تَقْرَأُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ شَيْئًا؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «مَاذَا؟» قَالَ سُورَةَ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ «فَقَدْ مَلَّكْتُكَهَا بِمَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ» قَالَ فَرَأَيْتُهُ يَمْضِي وَهِيَ تَتْبَعُهُ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The people will remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1957)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَزَالُ النَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْفِطْرَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "People will continue to be in goodness as long as they hasten with the breaking of the fast."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَزَالُ النَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْإِفْطَارَ»  

The people used to pray with the Prophet ﷺ tying their Izars around their necks because of their small sizes and the women were directed that they should not raise their heads from the prostrations till the men had sat straight. (Using translation from Bukhārī 814)  

كَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَهُمْ عَاقِدِي أُزُرَهُمْ مِنَ الصِّغَرِ عَلَى رِقَابِهِمْ فَقِيلَ لِلنِّسَاءِ لَا تَرْفَعْنَ رُءُوسَكُنَّ حَتَّى يَسْتَوِيَ الرِّجَالُ جُلُوسًا  

[Machine] "We used to pray the Friday prayer, then we would return and carry out (our duties)."  

«كُنَّا نُصَلِّي الْجُمُعَةَ ثُمَّ نَرْجِعُ وَنَقِيلُ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "The saying 'Sub Han Allah' is for men and clapping is for women." (If something happens in the prayer, the men can invite the attention of the Imam by saying "Sub Han Allah". And women, by clapping their hands). (Using translation from Bukhārī 1203)  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «التَّسْبِيحُ لِلرِّجَالِ وَالتَّصْفِيقُ لِلنِّسَاءِ»  

“Going out in the morning in the cause of Allah, or in the evening, is more virtuous than the world and what is in it.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2755)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «غَدْوَةٌ أَوْ رَوْحَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا»  

A journey undertaken in the morning or evening (fond Jihad) in the way of Allah (will merit a reward) better than the world and all that is in it. (Using translation from Muslim 1881b)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «غَدْوَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَوْ رَوْحَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا»

A journey undertaken in the morning or evening (fond Jihad) in the way of Allah (will merit a reward) better than the world and all that is in it. (Using translation from Muslim 1881b)

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "My pulpit is on a piece of Paradise."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مِنْبَرِي عَلَى تُرْعَةٍ مِنْ تُرَعِ الْجَنَّةِ»  

“A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, show me a deed which, if I do it, Allah will love me and people will love me. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Be indifferent towards this world, and Allah will love you. Be indifferent to what is in people’s hands, and they will love you.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4102)   

رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ دُلَّنِي عَلَى عَمِلٍ إِذَا أَنَا عَمِلْتُهُ أَحَبَّنِي النَّاسُ قَالَ «ازْهَدْ فِي الدُّنْيَا يُحِبَّكَ اللهُ وَازْهَدْ فِيمَا فِي أَيْدِي النَّاسِ يُحِبَّكَ النَّاسُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "For everything there is a Zakat, and the Zakat of the body is fasting."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ زَكَاةٌ وَزَكَاةُ الْجَسَدِ الصَّوْمُ»  

It never happened that Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked for anything and he said: No. (Using translation from Muslim 2311a)   

مَا سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ شَيْئًا قَطُّ فَقَالَ لَا
