It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any one of you makes supplication, he should do so with certainty and firmness, and he should not say: O Allah! If You wish, grant this to me, because there is no one who can compel Allah Almighty.

Once Qatadah asked Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), "Which supplication did the Prophet (peace be upon him) most frequently make?" He replied that the Prophet (peace be upon him) would often supplicate: "O Allah! O our Lord! Grant us goodness in this world and goodness in the Hereafter, and save us from the punishment of Hell." Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) himself would also make this same supplication.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) used to lead his people in prayer. On one occasion, he was leading the prayer when Hazrat Haram (may Allah be pleased with him), who was going to water his garden, entered the mosque to pray. When he saw that Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) was making the prayer long, he shortened his own prayer and went to water his garden. When Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) completed the prayer, someone informed him that Hazrat Haram (may Allah be pleased with him) had come to the mosque.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would enter the toilet, he would recite this supplication: "O Allah! I seek refuge with You from the male and female evil jinn."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to offer two rams as sacrifice, and I also do the same.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever wears silk in this world will never be able to wear it in the Hereafter.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) once entered the mosque and saw a rope hanging between two pillars. He asked, "What is this rope?" The people replied, "This is Zainab's rope. When she feels lazy or tired while praying, she ties herself to it." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Untie it." Then he said, "When any one of you prays, he should pray as long as he remains energetic, and when he feels lazy or tired, he should stop."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the time for prayer arrived, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was conversing in private with a man in the mosque. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up for prayer, the people had fallen asleep.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) arrived in Madinah Munawwarah, Hazrat Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) took my hand and brought me to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah, Anas is an intelligent boy; let him serve you." Thus, I had the honor of serving the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) during both journeys and at home. If I ever did any work, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never said to me, "Why did you do this work in this way?" And if I did not do any work, he never said, "Why did you not do this work?"

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a ring made for himself and said: We have had a ring made and have engraved an inscription (Muhammad Rasul Allah) on it, therefore no one should engrave this inscription on his ring.
