[Machine] "Whoever recites in one night five verses will not be recorded among the heedless, and whoever recites one hundred verses will be recorded among the obedient, and whoever recites three hundred verses will be granted a mountain of reward, and whoever recites seven hundred verses will be successful."  

«مَنْ قَرَأَ فِي لَيْلَةٍ بِخَمْسِ آيَاتٍ لَمْ يَكْتُبْ فِي لَيْلَتِهِ أَبَدًا مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ وَمَنْ قَرَأَ مِائَةَ آيَةٍ كُتِبَ مِنَ الْقَانِتِينَ وَمَنْ قَرَأَ ثَلَاثَ مِائَةٍ كُتِبَ لَهُ قِنْطَارٌ وَمَنْ قَرَأَ سَبْعَ مِائَةٍ أَفْلَحَ»  

[Machine] Abdullah used to prostrate when the sky split open.  

كَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ يَسْجُدُ فِي إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ  

[Machine] I prostrated (performed sujud) with Umar and with Abdullah when the sky split. Al-Aswad said, "As for one of them, I have no doubts about him."  

سَجَدْتُ مَعَ عُمَرَ وَمَعَ عَبْدِ اللهِ فِي إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ قَالَ الْأَسْوَدُ «أَمَّا أَحَدُهُمَا فَلَا أَشُكُّ فِيهِ»  

[Machine] I saw Abdullah and Omar, or one of them, prostrate when the heavens split.  

رَأَيْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ وَعُمَرَ أَوْ أَحَدَهُمَا يَسْجُدُ فِي إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ  

[Machine] That Abdullah used to prostrate to the star and recite in the name of your Lord who created.  

«أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ كَانَ يَسْجُدُ فِي النَّجْمِ وَاقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ»  

[Machine] Abdullah: "Whoever recites Surat Al-A'raf or An-Najm or when the heaven split open or the Children of Israel or recite in the name of your Lord who created, and He wished to conclude them with a bowing position, then the prostration of the bowing is to be considered as his recitation. And if he prostrates, let him add another surah to it."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «مَنْ قَرَأَ سُورَةَ الْأَعْرَافِ أَوِ النَّجْمِ أَوْ إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ أَوْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَوْ اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَشَاءَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ بِآخِرِهِنَّ رَكَعَ أَجْزَأَهُ سُجُودُ الرُّكُوعِ وَإِنْ سَجَدَ فَلْيُضِفْ إِلَيْهَا سُورَةً»  

[Machine] Whoever recites Al-A'raf and An-Najm and recites with the name of your Lord who created, he desired to bow down with the last of them, he performed the prostration of bowing and if he prostrates, let him add a surah to it.  

«مَنْ قَرَأَ الْأَعْرَافَ وَالنَّجْمَ وَاقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَشَاءَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ بِآخِرِهِنَّ رَكَعَ أَجْزَأَهُ سُجُودُ الرُّكُوعِ وَإِنْ سَجَدَ فَلْيُضِفْ إِلَيْهَا سُورَةً»  

[Machine] "Whoever recites Al-A'raf and An-Najm and recites in the name of his Lord who created, if he wishes, he can perform a bow with it and he will be rewarded, and if he wishes, he can prostrate, and then stand up and recite the Surah, and bow, and prostrate."  

«مَنْ قَرَأَ الْأَعْرَافَ وَالنَّجْمَ وَاقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَإِنْ شَاءَ رَكَعَ بِهَا وَقَدْ أَجْزَأَهُ عَنْهُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ سَجَدَ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَقَرَأَ السُّورَةَ وَرَكَعَ وَسَجَدَ»  

[Machine] Ibn Mas'ood used to prostrate when he recited the verse about the star in front of people and when he recited it in his prayer, he also performed the bow and prostration (in response to it).  

أَنَّ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَ إِذَا قَرَأَ النَّجْمَ عَلَى النَّاسِ سَجَدَ بِهَا وَإِذَا قَرَأَهَا فِي الصَّلَاةِ رَكَعَ بِهَا وَسَجَدَ  

[Machine] "There is nothing wrong with smiling during prayer."  

«لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ فِي التَّبَسُّمِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ شَيْءٌ»  

[Machine] "That Abdullah ibn Mas'ud used to prostrate at the first verse of Ha-Mim, a revelation from the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful."  

«أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَ يَسْجُدُ فِي الْآيَةِ الْأُولَى مِنْ حم تَنْزِيلٌ مِنَ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ»  

[Machine] Abdullah, indeed the prayers are the good deeds and the expiation between the first prayer and Asr prayer is the Asr prayer, and the expiation between Asr prayer and Maghrib prayer is the Maghrib prayer, and the expiation between Maghrib prayer and darkness is the Isha prayer. Then the Muslim retreats to his bed, having no sin as long as he avoids the major sins, then he recites, "Indeed, good deeds remove evil deeds."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ إِنَّ الصَّلَوَاتِ هُنَّ الْحَسَنَاتُ وَكَفَّارَةُ مَا بَيْنَ الْأُولَى إِلَى الْعَصْرِ صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ وَكَفَّارَةُ مَا بَيْنَ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى الْمَغْرِبِ صَلَاةُ الْمَغْرِبِ وَكَفَّارَةُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَغْرِبِ إِلَى الْعَتَمَةِ صَلَاةُ الْعَتَمَةِ ثُمَّ يَأْوِي الْمُسْلِمُ إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ لَا ذَنْبَ لَهُ مَا اجْتَنَبَ الْكَبَائِرَ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ}  

[Machine] "Abdullah bin Masood said: 'You are being consumed (by the fire), until when you pray the Fajr prayer, it is washed away. Then you are being consumed (by the fire) until when you pray the Dhuhr prayer, it is washed away. You are being consumed (by the fire) until when you pray the Asr prayer, it is washed away. Until the prayers are completed like this.'"  

عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ «تَحْتَرِقُونَ حَتَّى إِذَا صَلَّوُا الْفَجْرَ غُسِلَتْ ثُمَّ تَحْتَرِقُونَ حَتَّى إِذَا صَلَّوُا الظُّهْرَ غُسِلَتْ تَحْتَرِقُونَ حَتَّى إِذَا صَلَّوُا الْعَصْرَ غُسِلَتْ حَتَّى عَدَّ الصَّلَوَاتِ كُلَّهَا هَكَذَا»  

[Machine] "These prayers are true expiations for what is between them provided that major sins are avoided."  

«إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْحَقَائِقُ كَفَّارَاتٌ لِمَا بَيْنَهُنَّ مَا اجْتُنِبَتِ الْكَبَائِرُ»  

[Machine] "The prayers are expiations for whatever sins have been avoided."  

«الصَّلَوَاتُ كَفَّارَاتٌ لِمَا بَيْنَهُنَّ مَا اجْتُنِبَتِ الْكَبَائِرُ»  

[Machine] We used to read on Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami while he was walking. Whenever we passed by the prostration area, he would say the takbir (Allahu Akbar) and we would say the takbir as well. He would prostrate and we would prostrate with a gesture, raising his head and saying "As-Salamu 'Alaykum" (Peace be upon you), and we would reply with "Wa 'Alaykum As-Salam" (And peace be upon you). Abu Abd al-Rahman claimed that Abdullah used to do this with them.  

كُنَّا نَقْرَأُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيِّ وَهُوَ يَمْشِي فَإِذَا مَرَرْنَا بِالسَّجْدَةِ كَبَّرَ وَكَبَّرْنَا وَسَجَدَ وَسَجَدْنَا إِيمَاءً يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ وَيَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَنَقُولُ وَعَلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامُ «وَزَعَمَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ» أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ بِهِمْ  

[Machine] Whoever among you reads the Qur'an, let him learn the obligations. If he meets a Bedouin and he asks him, "O Emigrant, do you read the Qur'an?" and he answers, "Yes," then the Bedouin asks, "Do you perform the obligatory acts, O Emigrant?" If he answers, "Yes," the Bedouin says, "You have both increased in good and surpassed me." But if he answers, "No, I do not do them well," the Bedouin asks, "So what is your advantage over me, O Emigrant?"  

مَنْ قَرَأَ مِنْكُمُ الْقُرْآنَ فَلْيَتَعَلَّمِ الْفَرَائِضَ فَإِنْ لَقِيَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ يَا مُهَاجِرُ أَتَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ؟ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ فَيَقُولُ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ وَأَنَا أَقْرَأُ فَيَقُولُ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ أَتَفْرِضُ يَا مُهَاجِرُ؟ فَإِذَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ زِيَادَةٌ وَخَيْرٌ وَإِنْ قَالَ لَا أُحْسِنُهُ قَالَ فَمَا فَضْلُكَ عَلَيَّ يَا مُهَاجِرُ؟  

[Machine] "By Allah! There is no deity except Him. There is nothing on the face of the earth more in need of being imprisoned than the tongue."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «وَاللهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ مَا عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ شَيْءٌ أَحْوَجُ إِلَى طُولِ سِجْنٍ مِنْ لِسَانٍ»  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "By Allah, there is no one worthy of worship except Him, nothing on the face of the Earth is more in need of being imprisoned than the tongue."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «وَاللهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ مَا عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ شَيْءٌ أَحْوَجُ إِلَى طُولِ سِجْنٍ مِنْ لِسَانٍ»  

[Machine] "Abdullah said, 'There is nothing on earth that deserves a longer prison sentence than (the harm caused by) the tongue.'"  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ شَيْءٌ أَحَقُّ بِطُولِ سِجْنٍ مِنْ لِسَانٍ»  

[Machine] I heard Abdullah ibn Mas'ood saying, "There is nothing more deserving of long imprisonment than the tongue."  

سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ أَحَقُّ بِطُولِ سِجْنٍ مِنْ لِسَانٍ»  

[Machine] Indeed, sins are like rust that accumulates on hearts, so if there is anything troubling the heart of any one of you, they should let it go.  

«إِنَّ الْإِثْمَ حَوَازُّ الْقُلُوبِ فَمَا حَزَّ فِي قَلْبِ أَحَدِكُمْ شَيْءٌ فَلْيَدَعْهُ»  

[Machine] There was no gaze but that it had desire of Satan in it, and sin encircles the hearts.  

«مَا كَانَ مِنْ نَظْرَةٍ فَلِلشَّيْطَانِ فِيهَا مَطْمَعٌ وَالْإِثْمُ حَوَازُّ الْقُلُوبِ»  

[Machine] "Abdullah said, 'Beware of the heart's weaknesses.'"  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «إِيَّاكُمْ وَأَحْوَازَ الصُّدُورِ»  

[Machine] He who listens, Allah listens to him. He who sees, Allah sees him on the Day of Resurrection. And whoever humbles himself before Allah in humility, Allah raises him on the Day of Resurrection.  

سَمَّعَ سَمَّعَ اللهُ بِهِ وَمَنْ رَاءَى رَاءَى اللهُ بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَمَنْ تَخَشَّعَ لِلَّهِ تَوَاضُعًا رَفَعَهُ اللهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

[Machine] "Seek knowledge, whether you are a scholar or a student, and do not seek anything else. If you do not, then love the scholars and do not hate them."  

«اغْدُ عَالِمًا أَوْ مُتَعَلِّمًا وَلَا تَغْدُ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ فَأَحِبَّ الْعُلَمَاءَ وَلَا تُبْغِضْهُمْ»  

[Machine] Abdullah advised his son Abdul Rahman saying, "I advise you to fear Allah, may your house suffice you, and cry over your sin, and I have control over your tongue."  

أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ أَوْصَى ابْنَهُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ فَقَالَ «أُوصِيكَ بِاتِّقَاءِ اللهِ وَلْيَسَعْكَ بَيْتُكَ وَابْكِ عَلَى خَطِيئَتِكَ وَأَمْلِكْ عَلَيْكَ لِسَانَكَ»  

[Machine] "A man folds and treasures every single dirham and dinar, until his skin stretches to accommodate each individual dirham and dinar separately."  

«يُكْوَى رَجُلٌ يَكْنِزُ فَيَمَسُّ دِرْهَمٌ دِرْهَمًا وَلَا دِينَارٌ دِينَارًا يُوَسَّعُ جِلْدُهُ حَتَّى يُوضَعَ كُلُّ دِينَارٍ وَدِرْهَمٍ عَلَى حِدَتِهِ»  

[Machine] "Get accustomed to doing good, for indeed good becomes customary. And guard your intentions in prayer."  

«تَعَوَّدُوا الْخَيْرَ فَإِنَّ الْخَيْرَ بِالْعَادَةِ وَحَافِظُوا عَلَى نِيَّاتِكُمْ فِي الصَّلَاةِ»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If Allah wants to do good for somebody, he makes him comprehend the Religion (i.e. Islam), and Allah is the Giver and I am Al-Qasim (i.e. the distributor), and this (Muslim) nation will remain victorious over their opponents, till Allah's Order comes and they will still be victorious." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3116)  

«مَنْ يُرِدِ اللهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُفَقِّهْهُ فِي الدِّينِ»  

[Machine] "Whoever desires the Hereafter harms his worldly life; and whoever desires the worldly life harms his Hereafter. So, He has commanded them to harm the perishable for the eternal."  

«مَنْ أَرَادَ الْآخِرَةَ أَضَرَّ بِدُنْيَاهُ وَمَنْ أَرَادَ الدُّنْيَا أَضَرَّ بِآخِرَتِهِ فَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَضُرُّوا بِالْفَانِي لِلْبَاقِي»  

[Machine] I was in a hunting expedition when Abdullah came to me. He sent me to my family with some items, and a servant came with us. They had been traveling with camels for four days. I went with him to Abdullah, and when I arrived, he asked me, "From where did you bring this bird?" I said, "Servants brought it to us. They had been traveling with camels for four nights." Abdullah said, "I wish I were in a place of hunting where I don't speak to anyone, and no one speaks to me until I meet with Allah."  

كُنْتُ بِشِرَافَ فَنَزَلَ بِنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ فَبَعَثَنِي إِلَيْهِ أَهْلِي بِأَشْيَاءَ وَجَاءَ غِلْمَةٌ لَنَا كَانُوا فِي الْإِبِلِ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ أَرْبَعٍ بِطَيْرٍ فَذَهَبْتُ بِهِ إِلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا ذَهَبْتُ بِهِ إِلَيْهِ سَأَلَنِي «مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتَنِي بِهَذَا الطَّيْرِ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ جَاءَ بِهِ غِلْمَانٌ لَنَا كَانُوا فِي الْإِبِلِ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ أَرْبَعِ لَيَالٍ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ «لَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّي حَيْثُ صِيدَ لَا أُكَلِّمُ بِشَيْءٍ بَشَرًا وَلَا يُكَلِّمُنِي حَتَّى أَلْحَقَ بِاللهِ»  

[Machine] "And Allah, there is no god except Him, there is no living soul except that death is better for it, whether it be righteous or wicked. Indeed, Allah says, 'And that which is with Allah is better for the righteous' and 'And let not those who disbelieve think that what We extend to them [in life] is better for them. We only extend it to them that they may increase in sin.'"  

وَاللهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ مَا مِنْ نَفْسٍ حَيَّةٍ إِلَّا الْمَوْتُ خَيْرٌ لَهَا إِنْ كَانَ بِرًّا إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يَقُولُ {وَمَا عِنْدَ اللهِ خَيْرٌ لِلْأَبْرَارِ} وَإِنْ كَانَ فَاجِرًا إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يَقُولُ {وَلَا يَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّمَا نُمْلِي لَهُمْ خَيْرٌ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ إِنَّمَا نُمْلِي لَهُمْ لِيَزْدَادُوا إِثْمًا}  

[Machine] "O people, learn! For whoever learns, let them act."  

«يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ تَعَلَّمُوا فَمَنْ عَلِمَ فَلْيَعْمَلْ»  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "A people will come who will drink knowledge plentifully."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «يَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ يَشْرَبُونَ الْعِلْمَ شُرْبًا»  

[Machine] "You have spoken the truth, and there is no god but Him."  

«صَدَقْتَ وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ»  

[Machine] "Abdullah said, 'I do not know any of you who has the endurance of a camel in the darkness of the night and the heat of the day.'"  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «لَا أُلْفِيَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ جِيفَةَ لَيْلٍ قُطْرُبَ نَهَارٍ»  

[Machine] "Do not imitate the religion of anyone among you, for if he believes, he will believe, and if he disbelieves, he will disbelieve. If you are to follow anyone, follow the one who has passed away, for the living are not safe from trials."  

«لَا يُقَلِّدَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ دِينَهُ رَجُلًا فَإِنْ آمَنَ آمَنَ وَإِنْ كَفَرَ كَفَرَ وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا بُدَّ مُقْتَدِينَ فَاقْتَدُوا بِالْمَيِّتِ فَإِنَّ الْحَيَّ لَا يُؤْمَنُ عَلَيْهِ الْفِتْنَةُ»  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "None of you should become a blind follower (Immaah)." They asked, "What is a blind follower, O Abu Abdur Rahman?" He replied, "It means that I follow the people; if they are guided, then I am guided, and if they go astray, then I go astray. So none of you should rely solely on himself, thinking that if the people disbelieve, he will not disbelieve."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «لَا يَكُونُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِمَّعَةً» قَالُوا وَمَا الْإِمَّعَةُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ؟ قَالَ يَقُولُ «إِنَّمَا أَنَا مَعَ النَّاسِ إِنِ اهْتَدَوُا اهْتَدَيْتُ وَإِنْ ضَلُّوا ضَلَلْتُ أَلَا لَيُوَطِّنُ أَحَدُكُمْ نَفْسَهُ عَلَى إِنْ كَفَرَ النَّاسُ أَنْ لَا يَكْفُرَ»  

[Machine] "We used to call the person who comes to eat without being invited 'al-immah'. Indeed, al-immah among you is the one whose religion is looted."  

«كُنَّا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ نُسَمِّي الْإِمَّعَةَ الَّذِي يَأْتِي الطَّعَامَ وَلَمْ يُدْعَ إِلَيْهِ أَلَا وَإِنَّ الْإِمَّعَةَ فِيكُمُ الْمُحْقِبُ دِينَهُ»  

[Machine] "We used to call the hypocrite during the time of ignorance a man who was invited to food, and a man would follow him on the day when people would question his religion. And we used to call the lies magic, but it is now said 'he said, she said'."  

«كُنَّا نُسَمِّي الْإِمَّعَةَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ الرَّجُلُ يُدْعَى إِلَى الطَّعَامِ فَيَتْبَعُهُ الرَّجُلُ وَهُوَ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي يَحْقِبُ النَّاسَ دِينَهُ وَكُنَّا نُسَمِّي الْعَضَهَ السِّحْرَ وَهُوَ الْيَوْمَ قِيلَ وَقَالَ»  

[Machine] "You are more devoted to prayer and display more willingness to strive than the companions of Muhammad ﷺ , even though they were better than you." They asked, "Why is that, O Abu Abdul Rahman?" He replied, "Because they were more detached from worldly desires and more eager for the hereafter."  

«أَنْتُمْ أَكْثَرُ صَلَاةً وَأَكْثَرُ جِهَادًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ وَهُمْ كَانُوا خَيْرًا مِنْكُمْ» قَالُوا بِمَ ذَاكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ؟ قَالَ «إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا أَزْهَدَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَأَرْغَبَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ»  

[Machine] "Follow and do not innovate, for you have been sufficed with every innovation of misguidance."  

«اتَّبِعُوا وَلَا تَبْتَدِعُوا فَقَدْ كُفِيتُمْ كُلُّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ»  

[Machine] "The entire earth will be fire on the Day of Resurrection, and Paradise is behind it; they will see its hills and cups. And by the One in whose hand is the soul of Abdullah, indeed a man will be, to the extent that he would be soaked in sweat to the point that it would flow on the ground, his sweat literally dripping beneath him, then he will rise until it reaches his nose, and he will not be touched by the Reckoning." They said, "From what is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "From what people see and confront."  

«الْأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا نَارٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَالْجَنَّةُ مِنْ وَرَائِهَا يَرَوْنَ كَوَاعِبَهَا وَأَكْوَابَهَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بِيَدِهِ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لِيَفِيضُ عَرَقًا حَتَّى يَسِيحَ فِي الْأَرْضِ قَامَتَهُ ثُمَّ يَرْتَفِعُ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ أَنْفَهُ وَمَا مَسَّهُ الْحِسَابُ» قَالُوا مِمَّ ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ «مِمَّا يَرَى النَّاسَ يَلْقَوْنَ»  

[Machine] Abdullah said, "By the One in whose hands is the true God, Abdullah does not have good thoughts about anyone unless he gives reason for it, as goodness is in his hands."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ «وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ لَا يُحْسِنُ عَبْدُ اللهِ الظَّنَّ إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ ظَنَّهُ وَذَلِكَ بَانَ الْخَيْرُ فِي يَدِهِ»  

[Machine] Abdullah asked his wife, "Is today better or yesterday?" She replied, "I don't know." He then said, "But I know that yesterday was better than today, and today is better than tomorrow, and so on until the Hour is established."  

عَبْدُ اللهِ لِامْرَأَتِهِ «الْيَوْمَ خَيْرٌ أَمْ أَمْسِ؟» فَقَالَتْ لَا أَدْرِي فَقَالَ «لَكِنِّي أَدْرِي أَمْسِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَوْمِ وَالْيَوْمُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ غَدٍ وَكَذَلِكَ حَتَّى تَقُومَ السَّاعَةُ»  

[Machine] Abdullah came out to us one day while he looked sad, so we asked him what's the matter with him. He replied, "The best part of this world is gone, and all that remains is sorrow. Death is a gift today for every Muslim."  

خَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ يَوْمًا وَهُوَ خَائِرٌ فَقُلْنَا مَا لَكَ؟ فَقَالَ «ذَهَبَ صَفْوُ الدُّنْيَا فَلَمْ يَبْقَ إِلَّا الْكَدَرُ فَالْمَوْتُ الْيَوْمَ تُحْفَةٌ لِكُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ»  

[Machine] The passage translates to: "The joy of the world has gone, and only sorrow remains. Death today is a treasure for every Muslim."  

«ذَهَبَ صَفْوُ الدُّنْيَا فَلَمْ يَبْقَ إِلَّا الْكَدَرُ فَالْمَوْتُ الْيَوْمَ تُحْفَةٌ لِكُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ»  

[Machine] "The example of the world is like that of a mirage," we said, "but what is a mirage?" He said, "The golden parts are gone, only the dirt remains. So death is a treasure for every believer."  

«مَثَلُ الدُّنْيَا كَمَثَلِ ثَغَبٍ» قُلْنَا وَمَا الثَّغَبُ؟ قَالَ «الْغَدِيرُ ذَهَبَ صَفْوُهُ وَبَقِي كَدَرُهُ فَالْمَوْتُ تُحْفَةٌ كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ»  

[Machine] "On the Day of Judgment, the people who were afflicted with calamities will wish that their skins had been cut into pieces when they witness the rewards."  

«يَوَدُّ أَهْلُ الْبَلَاءِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ حِينَ يُعَايِنُونَ الثَّوَابَ لَوْ أَنَّ جُلُودَهُمْ كَانَتْ تُقْرَضُ بِالْمَقَارِيضِ»
