It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The example of a believer is like that of a crop; the wind keeps shaking it continuously.

It is narrated from Hazrat Ka'b that he says the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The example of a believer is like a fresh crop which the winds move; sometimes they bend it and sometimes they straighten it, until it turns yellow. And the example of a disbeliever is like a pine tree which stands straight on its root in the ground; nothing can move it until it is uprooted all at once.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Musa that he says: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "A believer to another believer is like a building, each part of which strengthens the other."

Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’d narrates from the Noble Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said:“A believer, in relation to other believers, is like the head to the body. A believer feels the pain of the people of faith just as the head feels the pain of the rest of the body.”

Hazrat Nu'man bin Bashir narrates from the Noble Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) that he (peace be upon him) said: The example of a believer is like that of a body; when one part of it is in pain, the rest of the body also shares in that pain.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah that he says: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to me: "Recite the Qur'an to me." Hazrat Abdullah says, I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon you! Should I recite it to you, while it has been revealed to you?" He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "I desire to hear it from someone other than myself." The narrator says, so I began to recite Surah An-Nisa, until when I reached { فَکَیْفَ إذَا جِئْنَا مِنْ کُلِّ أُمَّۃٍ بِشَہِیدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِکَ عَلَی ہَؤُلاَئِ شَہِیدًا }, I raised my head... or a man sitting beside me made me attentive... so I saw that the eyes of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, were flowing with tears.
