Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) passed by Abdullah bin Ubayy bin Salul, who was sitting in the shade of a bush. He said: Ibn Abi Kabsha (meaning Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has raised dust upon us. His son, Abdullah bin Abdullah, said: By the One Who has honored you and revealed the Book to you! If you wish, I will bring his head (severed) to you. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "No, rather be good to your father and treat him with good companionship."

Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I entered Paradise and I heard the sound of recitation there. I asked: (the one whose voice is being heard) Who is this? They said: Harithah bin Nu'man. This is righteousness and (good conduct), this is righteousness and (good conduct), he (Harithah) was extremely good in his conduct towards his mother."
