Ali bin Khalid says that once Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by Khalid bin Yazid, so he asked him, "Is there any gentle statement that you heard from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied, "I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Behold! Every one of you will enter Paradise except the person who turns away from the obedience of Allah in such a manner as a camel bolts away from its owner.'"

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from Khaybar, he had two slaves with him. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave one of the slaves to Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "Do not beat him, because I have forbidden beating those who pray, and I have seen him praying." The other slave was given to Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said, "I advise you to treat him well." So he set him free. One day, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him, "What happened to that slave?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah! You advised me to treat him well, so I set him free."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty says, O son of Adam! If I take away your beloved eyes and you remain patient at the initial moment of shock, seeking reward, then I will not be pleased with any reward for you except Paradise.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever loves someone for the sake of Allah's pleasure, in reality, he honors Allah Almighty.

It is narrated from Abu Ghalib that I asked Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) about the meaning of "Nafila," so he replied that it is Nafila for the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), whereas for you it is a source of reward.

Ja'far says that one day I came to "Farqad" and found him alone. I said to him, O son of Umm Farqad! Today I will definitely ask you about this hadith. Tell me, do you speak about the matter of sinking into the earth and being pelted with stones from your own opinion, or do you narrate it from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)? He said, I narrate it from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). I asked him, then who narrated this hadith to you? He said, Asim bin Amr Bajali narrated it from Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him), and he narrated it from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

It is narrated mursal from Ibrahim Nakha'i (may Allah have mercy on him) that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: A group from my ummah will spend the night engaged in eating, drinking, and amusement. When morning comes, their faces will have been transformed into the faces of monkeys and pigs. Then a wind will be sent upon their palaces, scattering them as the previous people were scattered, because they will consider alcohol to be lawful, will play the daf (musical instruments), and will have made singing women (female singers) for themselves.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I entered Paradise and heard the sound of footsteps ahead of me. I asked, "Who is this?" So Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) informed me that it was Bilal. I moved forward and saw that the majority in Paradise were the poor emigrants and the children of the Muslims, and I did not see any group in lesser number than the wealthy and women. It was told that the wealthy are standing at the gate of Paradise, where they are being held for account and scrutiny, and women have been kept heedless by gold and silk. Then we exited through one of the eight gates of Paradise, and while I was still at the gate, a scale was brought. I was placed in one pan and my entire Ummah in the other, and my pan outweighed theirs. Then Abu Bakr was brought and placed in one pan and the entire Ummah in the other, and Abu Bakr's pan outweighed theirs. Then Umar was brought and placed in one pan and the entire Ummah in the other, and Umar's pan outweighed theirs. Then each individual of my Ummah was presented before me and they kept passing by me, but I saw that Abdur Rahman bin Awf was very late in coming. After a long time, when hope was fading, he arrived. I asked him, "Abdur Rahman! What is the matter?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah! May my parents be sacrificed for you, by the One Who sent you with the truth, my soul was only freed when I thought I would never be able to see you again, except if cool days came." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "For what reason?" He replied, "Because of the abundance of wealth, my account and scrutiny were being taken."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Love (from Allah and fame) descends from the sky. Thus, when Allah Almighty loves a servant, He says (to Hazrat Jibreel, peace be upon him): "I love such-and-such person, so you also love him." Then this love is placed in the hearts of the people of the earth.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of the conquest of Makkah, I was beneath the mount of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said very excellent things on that occasion. Among them was this: Whoever from the People of the Book becomes a Muslim will receive a double reward and, in rights and duties, he will be like us. And whoever from among the polytheists becomes a Muslim, he will receive his reward and he too will be like us in rights and duties.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! How will a believer attain salvation?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "O Uqbah! Guard your tongue, let your house suffice for you, and weep over your sins."
