It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What right does our wife have over us?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "When you eat, feed her as well; when you clothe yourself, clothe her as well; do not strike her on the face; do not abuse her; and if you separate from her, do so only within the house."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that once his brother Malik said to him, "Muawiyah! Muhammad (peace be upon him) has captured my neighbors. You go to him, he knows you and talks to you." I went with my brother. He requested the Prophet (peace be upon him) to release his neighbors, saying that they had become Muslims. The Prophet (peace be upon him) turned away from his request. (My brother) stood stubbornly and said softly, "By Allah! If you do this, people will think that you command something and then violate it yourself." He kept speaking, and I was dragging my cloak along, when the Prophet (peace be upon him) asked, "What were you saying?" (He remained silent.) People informed the Prophet (peace be upon him) that he was saying, "If you do this, people will think that you command something and then violate it yourself." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Can people say such a thing? Even if I did this, its effect would be upon me, not upon them. Release his neighbors."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: On the Day of Resurrection, you will be in the form of a complete seventy nations, and you will be the last of all the nations, and the most honorable in the sight of Allah.

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: For every forty freely-grazing camels, one bint labun is obligatory, and according to this calculation of zakat, no camel should be separated individually. Whoever pays zakat himself with the intention of reward will receive its reward, and whoever does not pay zakat, we can forcibly collect it from him. The share of his camel is the decision of our Lord, and nothing from it is lawful for the family of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that once his father or uncle said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "Why have my neighbors been seized?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned away from his words. This happened twice. Then his father or uncle said, "By Allah! If you do this, people will think that you command something and then you yourself violate it." He kept speaking and I was dragging my sheet along as I was going, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "What was this man saying?" The people informed him that he was saying, "If you do this, people will think that you command something and then you yourself violate it." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Can people say such a thing? Even if I did so, its effect would be upon me, not upon them. Leave his neighbors."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah does not accept the repentance of the person who, after accepting Islam, falls back into polytheism.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Can people say such a thing? Even if I did this, its effect would be upon me, not upon them. Leave his neighbors alone."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: If a person's paternal cousin asks him for an extra share of his wealth and he does not give it to him, then on the Day of Resurrection he will be turned into a bald snake.

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "Woe to the person who tells lies to make people laugh. Woe to him, woe to him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): I had sworn so many times (opening the fingers of his hands he indicated the number) that I would not come to you, but now I have come, so tell me, with what has Allah sent you? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah has sent me with Islam. He asked: What is Islam? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: To bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is His servant and Messenger, and to establish prayer and pay zakat. These two things are supportive, and Allah does not accept the repentance of a person who, after accepting Islam, falls back into polytheism. I asked: O Messenger of Allah! What is the right of our wife upon us? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you eat, feed her; when you wear clothes, clothe her as well; do not strike her on the face; do not abuse her; and if you separate from her, do so only within the house. Then he said: All of you will be gathered here (he pointed towards Syria), some of you will be mounted, some on foot, and some on their faces. On the Day of Resurrection, when you are presented, a seal will be set upon your mouths, and the first thing to speak will be the thigh. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If a person’s cousin asks him for an extra share of his wealth and he does not give it, then before the judgment on the Day of Resurrection, he will be turned into a bald snake that will keep biting him. It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In earlier times there was a man whom Allah had blessed with abundant wealth and children. Time passed, one era went and another came. When his death approached, he said to his children: O my children! What kind of father have I been to you? They said: The best father. He said: Will you obey me in one thing? They said: Yes. He said: Look, when I die, burn me in fire and keep me in the fire until I become coal, then crush that coal in a mortar (he indicated with his hand), then on a windy day, scatter my ashes in the sea. Perhaps in this way I will not meet Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: By Allah! They did exactly that, but at that very moment he was in Allah’s grasp. Allah asked him: O son of Adam! What made you do this? He said: My Lord! Your fear. Allah, due to the blessing of that fear, forgave him.
