General Ahaadith (187)
عن ثوير هو ابن أبي فاختة عن أبيه قال أخذ علي بيدي قال انطلق بنا إلى الحسن نعوده فوجدنا عنده أبا موسى فقال علي أعائدا جئت يا أبا موسى أم زائرا فقال لا بل عائدا فقال علي سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول ما من مسلم يعود مسلما غدوة إلا صلى عليه سبعون ألف ملك حتى يمسي وإن عاده عشية إلا صلى عليه سبعون ألف ملك حتى يصبح وكان له خريف في الجنة (سنن الترمذي #969)
Thuwair, the son of Abu Faakhtah (rahimahullah), narrates that Abu Faakhtah (rahimahullah) said, “Hazrat ‘Ali (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) once held my hand and said, ‘Come with us to Hasan (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) so that we may visit him in his illness.’ Then (on arriving at Hasan (radhiyallahu ‘anhu),) we found Hazrat Abu Musa (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) present with him. (Seeing him,) Hazrat ‘Ali (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) asked, ‘O Abu Musa (radhiyallahu ‘anhu)! (What is your intention for coming to visit him?) Have you come to visit him on account of his sickness, or are you visiting him (for some other purpose)?’ Hazrat Abu Musa (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) replied, ‘No (i.e. I am not visiting him for some other purpose). Rather, I am visiting him on account of his sickness.’ Hazrat ‘Ali (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) thus said, ‘I heard Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) mentioning, ‘There is no Muslim who visits another Muslim who is sick, in the morning, except that seventy thousand Angels make du‘aa for him until the evening. And he does not visit a sick Muslim in the evening, except that seventy thousand Angels make du‘aa for him until the morning, and he will have a garden in Jannah.’’”
Holding Fast to the Majority and Salaah in the Musjid
Written by user2عن معاذ بن جبل أن نبي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال إن الشيطان ذئب الإنسان كذئب الغنم يأخذ الشاة القاصية والناحية فإياكم والشعاب وعليكم بالجماعة والعامة والمسجد (مجمع الزوائد #2033)
Hazrat Mu‘aaz bin Jabal (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) narrates that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “Indeed Shaitaan is the wolf of humans, like the wolf of goats that seizes the goat which is distant and in a corner. Hence, you should refrain from (breaking up into) groups, and you should hold fast to the Jamaat (i.e. the congregational prayer in the musjid), the Muslim majority and the Musjid.”
عن زيد بن ثابت رضي الله عنه قال سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول نضر الله امرأ سمع منا حديثا فحفظه حتى يبلغه فرب حامل فقه إلى من هو أفقه منه ورب حامل فقه ليس بفقيه (سنن أبي داود #3662)
Hazrat Zaid bin Thaabit (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports, “I heard Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) saying, ‘May Allah Ta‘ala bless that person with beauty who hears a Hadith from us, and thereafter memorizes it until he conveys it (to others). There are many who carry the knowledge of Fiqh (i.e. they are in possession of Ahaadith which relate to laws of Shari‘ah) and convey it to those who are more understanding than them, and there are many who carry the knowledge of Fiqh yet do not possess the understanding of it.”
عن عبد الله بن مسعود قال قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم لا حسد إلا في اثنتين رجل آتاه الله مالا فسلط على هلكته في الحق ورجل آتاه الله الحكمة فهو يقضي بها ويعلمها (صحيح بخاري #73، صحيح مسلم #816)
Hazrat ‘Abdullah bin Mas‘ood (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) narrates that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “Envy is not permissible except in regard to two types of people. The first person is the one whom Allah Ta‘ala has blessed with wealth and Allah Ta‘ala blesses him with the ability to spend it in the correct manner. The second person is the one whom Allah Ta‘ala has blessed with Deeni knowledge, and he correctly practices upon it and imparts it to others.”
عن عائشة رضي الله عنها أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان إذا اشتكى نفث على نفسه بالمعوذات ومسح عنه بيده فلما اشتكى وجعه الذي توفي فيه طفقت أنفث على نفسه بالمعوذات التي كان ينفث وأمسح بيد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم عنه وفي رواية أخرى لها قالت وأمسح بيد نفسه لبركتها ( صحيح بخاري #4439،5735 )
It is reported from Hazrat ‘Aa’ishah (radhiyallahu ‘anha) that whenever Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) would fall ill, he would recite the Mu‘awwizaat (words of seeking protection i.e. Surah Falaq and Surah Naas and in some narrations, Surah Ikhlaas) and blow upon himself (i.e. he would blow into his hands) and pass his hands over his blessed body. When he (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) fell into his final illnesss (and was unable to recite and pass his blessed hands over his body), I began to recite the Mu‘awwizaat which he would recite and blow on his body, and I would blow into the blessed hand of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) and pass it over his body.” In another narration, Hazrat ‘Aa’ishah (radhiyallahu ‘anha) mentioned, “I would blow into the blessed hand of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) and thereafter pass it over his body on account of his hand having the blessing (i.e. I would not blow into my own hands as my hands do not possess the blessing that is in the hand of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam)).”
عن أبي هريرة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال إياكم والظن فإن الظن أكذب الحديث ولا تحسسوا ولا تجسسوا ولا تحاسدوا ولا تدابروا ولا تباغضوا وكونوا عباد الله إخوانا (صحيح بخاري #6064)
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) narrates that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “Refrain from suspicions (and ill thoughts regarding people), for indeed suspicions are the most false of all inner thoughts. Do not search for the faults of people, do not spy on them, do not bear jealousy for one another, do not turn your backs and forsake one another, and do not harbor enmity for one another. And live as brothers, O servants of Allah!”

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “The sign of person being a hypocrite is that three traits will be found within him; when he speaks, he lies, when he makes a promise, he breaks it, and when he is entrusted (with something), he betrays the trust.”

عن أنس بن مالك قال سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم يقول قال الله يا ابن آدم إنك ما دعوتني ورجوتني غفرت لك على ما كان فيك ولا أبالي يا ابن آدم لو بلغت ذنوبك عنان السماء ثم استغفرتني غفرت لك ولا أبالي يا ابن آدم إنك لو أتيتني بقراب الأرض خطايا ثم لقيتني لا تشرك بي شيئا لأتيتك بقرابها مغفرة (سنن الترمذي #3540)
Hazrat Anas bin Maalik (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) narrates that he heard Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) saying that Allah Ta‘ala says, “O son of Aadam (‘alaihis salaam)! So long as you make du‘aa to Me and have hope in Me, I will forgive your sins, and I do not care (there is no one to question my authority). O son of Aadam (‘alaihis salaam)! Even if your sins reach the clouds of the sky and you then turn to Me, seeking My forgiveness, I will forgive you and I do not care (there is no one to question my authority). O son of Aadam (‘alaihis salaam)! If you come to Me with sins which are almost equal to the entire earth and meet Me in the condition that you are not ascribing any partners to Me, I will come to you with (bestow you with) forgiveness which is almost equal to the entire earth.”

Therefore ensure that you accept my command to treat women kindly.”
