It is narrated from Hazrat Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that some people came who were barefoot, naked, wrapped in leopard skins, and had swords hanging by their sides. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged the people to give charity, but the people delayed, upon which the color of the blessed face of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) changed. Then an Ansari man came with a piece of silver and put it down. After that, people began to come continuously. The face of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began to shine, and it seemed as if it was made of gold. He said: Whoever introduces a good practice in Islam, he will have its reward and the reward of those who act upon it after him, without their rewards being diminished in the least. And whoever introduces a bad practice in Islam, he will bear its sin and the sin of those who act upon it after him, without their sins being diminished in the least.

It is narrated from Hazrat Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever does not show mercy to people, Allah Almighty does not show mercy to him.

It is narrated from Hazrat Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me, "Why do you not relieve me from Dhi al-Khalasah?" This was a church in the tribe of Khath'am which was called the Yemeni Ka'bah. So I set out with one hundred and fifty men from Ahmas, all of whom were horsemen. I said to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that I cannot sit firmly on the back of a horse. So the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) struck his blessed hand on my chest until I saw the marks of his fingers on my chest, and he prayed, "O Allah! Grant him firmness and composure, and make him one who guides and is guided." Then I set out, and upon reaching there, I set it on fire. Then I sent a man to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to give him the good news, and he said, "By the One Who sent you with the truth, I left it in such a state as if it were a mangy camel." Upon this, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for blessings for Ahmas and its horsemen five times.

It is narrated from Hazrat Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once, on the night of the full moon, we were with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon you will see your Lord just as you see this moon. You will have no difficulty in seeing your Lord. Therefore, if you have the strength not to be overpowered regarding the prayers before sunrise and before sunset, then do so (i.e., be diligent in these prayers)." Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: "Glorify your Lord with His praise before the rising of the sun and before its setting."

It is narrated from Hazrat Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever introduces a good practice in Islam, he will have the reward of that act and also the reward of those who act upon it after him, and nothing will be diminished from their rewards. And whoever introduces a bad practice in Islam, he will bear its sin and also the sin of those who act upon it after him, and nothing will be diminished from their sins. The narrator says that once some villagers came to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! The people who come to us from your side to collect zakat oppress us." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Send him back pleased." They said, "Even if he oppresses us?" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) again said, "Send him back pleased." Since I heard this hadith, I have always sent back the one who comes to me to collect zakat in a pleased manner.

He said: Some people from the Bedouins came to him and said, "O Prophet of Allah, some of your tax collectors come to us and wrong us." He said: "Be content with your tax collectors." They said, "Even if he wrongs?" He said, "Be content with your tax collectors." Jarir said: "No tax collector has ever departed from me since I heard this from the Prophet of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, except that he was pleased with me."

And the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) also said that whoever is deprived of gentleness is deprived of all goodness.

Munzir bin Jarir, may Allah have mercy on him, says that once I was with my father, Hazrat Jarir, may Allah be pleased with him, at a place called Bawazij, among a herd. There, cows were coming and going ahead and behind. He saw a cow and it seemed unfamiliar to him. He asked, "What kind of cow is this?" The herdsman replied that it belongs to someone else and has joined our animals. On his order, it was removed from there until it disappeared from sight. Then he said, "I heard the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say that only a misguided person gives shelter to a lost thing."

It is narrated from Hazrat Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that since I accepted Islam, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never kept a veil from me, and whenever he saw me, he saw me with a smile.

It is narrated from Hazrat Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If any slave runs away from his master, no one remains responsible for him; the responsibility ends."
