Hadith 14:

It was narrated from Abu Dharr (r.a) that some of the Companions of the Prophet (s.a.w) said to him: O Messenger of Allah, the wealthy are taking all the rewards. They pray as we pray, they fast as we fast, and they give charity from their surplus wealth. He said: «Hasn't Allah granted you means of giving charity? In every tasbeehah (saying Sub hanAllah) there is charity; in every takbeerah (saying Allahu akbar) there is charity; in every tahmeedah (saying Alhamdu Lillah) there is charity; in every tahleelah (saying Laa ilaaha illa Allah) there is charity; in enjoining what is right there is charity; in forbidding what is wrong there is charity; in the intimacy of one of you [with his wife] there is charity.»

They said: O Messenger of Allah, if one of us fulfils his desire, will there be reward for him in that? He said: «Do you not think that if he fulfils it in an unlawful manner, he will incur a burden of sin? Likewise, if he fulfils it in a permissible manner,

there will be reward for him.»

Hadith 13:

It was narrated that Adiy ibn Hatim (r.a) said: The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: «There is no one among you but Allah will speak to him, without an interpreter. He will look to his right and see nothing but the deeds that he sent on ahead; he will look to his left and see nothing but the deeds that he sent on ahead. He will look in front of him and will see nothing but the Fire facing him. So protect yourselves from the Fire, even by means

of half a date.»

Another report adds: «even by means of a good word.»

Hadith 12:

It was narrated that Muawiyah (r.a.w) said: I heard the Prophet (s.a.w) say: «When Allah wills good for a person, He grants him understanding of religion. I am merely a distributor, and it is Allah Who gives. This ummah will continue to adhere to the command of Allah, and those who oppose them will not harm them, until the decree of Allah comes to pass.»

Hadith 11:

It was narrated from Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As (r.a) that the Prophet (s.a.w) said: «He has succeeded who becomes Muslim and is given just enough provision, and Allah makes him content with what He has given him.»

Hadith 10:

It was narrated that Anas ibn Malik (r.a) said: The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: «Paradise is surrounded with hardships, and Hell is surrounded with desires.»

Hadith 9:

It was narrated that Abdullah ibn Umar (r.a) said: The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) took hold of my shoulder and said: «Be in this world as if you are a stranger or a wayfarer.»

Ibn Umar (r.a) used to say: When evening comes, do not wait for morning, and when morning comes, do not wait for evening. Take from your good health for your sickness, and from your life for your death.

Hadith 8:

It was narrated from Abu Saeed al-Khudri (r.a) that the Prophet (s.a.w) said: «This world is sweet and green, and Allah will make you successive generations therein, and He will see what you do. Beware of this world and beware of women, for the first fitnah (trial) among the Children of Israel had to do with women.»

Hadith 7:

It was narrated that Abdullah inn Mas'ud (r.a) said: The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said to us: «O young men, whoever among you is able to, let him get married, for it is more effective in lowering the gaze and guarding one's chastity. And whoever cannot afford it should fast, for it will be like [temporary] castration for him.»

Hadith 6:

It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (r.a) that The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) used to say: «The five daily prayers, one Jumuah to the next, and one Ramadan to the next, are expiation for whatever comes in between them, if one avoids major sins.»

Hadith 5:

It was narrated from Jabir (r.a) that a man asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) : Do you think, if I pray the obligatory prayers, fast Ramadan, regard as permissible what is permitted and regard as prohibited what is prohibited, and I do not do anything more than that, will I be admitted to Paradise? He said: «Yes.» He said: By Allah, I shall not do anything more than that.
