It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I served the Noble Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for ten years. (In one narration, nine years are mentioned.) Whatever command the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave me, and then if I was negligent or made a mistake in that matter, and if anyone from the household of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said anything harsh to me, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: Leave him alone, if it was destined to happen, it would have happened.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was given a white mule as a gift. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) rode it, and Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) was leading it. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Recite. He said: O Messenger of Allah! What should I recite? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Recite {قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ}. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this surah until Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) recited it. But when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw that I was not very pleased with this surah, he said: It seems you consider it insignificant. You have not recited a surah like this in prayer (meaning this is an unparalleled surah to be recited in prayer).
