It is narrated from Hazrat Nawwas bin Sam'an (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: All hearts are between two fingers from among the fingers of the Lord of the worlds. If He wills to keep any heart straight, He keeps it straight, and if He wills to make it crooked, He makes it crooked. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate: O Turner of the hearts! Make our hearts steadfast upon Your religion. And the scale of deeds is in the hand of the Most Merciful; He raises it and lowers it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Nawas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about virtue and sin. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Virtue is good character, and sin is that which pricks your heart and you dislike that people should come to know of it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Nawas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about virtue and sin. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Virtue is good character, and sin is that which pricks your heart and you dislike that people should come to know of it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Nawas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about virtue and sin. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Virtue is good character, and sin is that which pricks your heart and you dislike that people should come to know of it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Nawas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah has given an example that there is a straight path, on both sides of which are walls. In these walls are open doors, and curtains are hanging over the doors. At the main gate of the path, a caller is standing and saying: O people! All of you enter into it and do not scatter to the right or left. And a caller is calling in the middle of the path; when anyone wants to open one of these doors, he says to him: Do not open it, for if you open it, you will enter it. The straight path refers to Islam, the walls refer to the limits set by Allah, the open doors are the forbidden things, and the caller at the main gate of the path is the Noble Qur’an, and the caller in the very middle of the path is an admonisher from Allah in the heart of every Muslim (which is called conscience).

It is narrated from Hazrat Nawas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is a great betrayal that you say something to your brother, he considers you truthful, while you are lying to him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Nawas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah has given an example that there is a straight path, on both sides of which are walls, and in these walls are open doors, with curtains hanging over the doors. At the main gate of the path, a caller is standing and calling out, and another caller is calling from above it. Allah invites to the house of peace and guides whom He wills to the straight path.

It is narrated from Hazrat Nawas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying: On the Day of Resurrection, the Noble Qur'an and the people of the Qur'an, who also acted upon it, will be brought forth in such a way that Surah Al-Baqarah and Al-Imran will be ahead of them. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave three examples of these two Surahs, which I have not forgotten till now. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Both these Surahs will be like clouds, or like canopies with light between them, or like flocks of birds in ranks, and they will argue on behalf of their reciter.

It is narrated from Hazrat Utbah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade plucking the hair of horses’ tails, manes, and forelocks, and said: Their tails are a fly-whisk for them, their manes are a means of protection from the cold, and goodness has been placed in their forelocks until the Day of Resurrection.

It is narrated from Hazrat Utbah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Any Muslim whose three minor children die, they will meet him at all eight gates of Paradise, so that he may enter Paradise through whichever gate he wishes."
