And he said: "There is no mawla who comes to his mawla and asks him for some favor that he has, and he withholds it from him, except that Allah, the Exalted, will make for him a serpent that will bite him before the judgment." ‘Affan said: He means by mawla his cousin. .

He said: He said: And he said: "A man from among those who were before you, Allah the Exalted granted him wealth and children, until one era passed and another came. When he was on his deathbed, he said to his children: 'What kind of father was I to you?' They said: 'The best father.' He said: 'Will you obey me, or shall I take my wealth from you? See, when I die, burn me until you leave me as charcoal, then crush me with the pestle,'" and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, moved his hands near his knees. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "So they did, by Allah," and the Prophet of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, did with his hand like this: "Then scatter me on a windy day, perhaps I will elude Allah." Thus said Affan, and Muhanna Abu Shibl narrated from Hammad: "I will elude Allah, so they did that, by Allah. Then he was standing in the grasp of Allah the Exalted, and He said: 'O son of Adam, what made you do what you did?' He said: 'Out of fear of You.' So Allah forgave him for that."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (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 nation, and you will be the most honorable in the sight of Allah. The distance between the two gates of Paradise is forty years’ journey, but there will come a day when even there will be a crowd.

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: On the Day of Resurrection, when you will be presented, a seal will be set upon your mouths, and the first thing to speak will be your thigh.

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that he once asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What is the right of our wife upon us?" The Prophet (peace 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 confines of the house."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I submitted in the court of the Messenger, "O Messenger of Allah! With whom should I do good and show kindness?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied, "With your mother." I asked the same question three times, and each time the Prophet (peace be upon him) gave the same answer. Upon asking the fourth time, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "With your father, then in order of closeness, with your relatives."

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah 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 nation, and the most honorable in the sight of Allah.

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah Bahzi (may Allah be pleased with him) that I submitted in the court of Prophethood, "O Messenger of Allah! In which part of our women may we approach them and which part should we leave?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Your wife is your field; come to your field from wherever you wish. However, when you eat, feed her as well; when you dress, 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. How is it appropriate when you approach each other in a lawful manner?"

It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Where do you command me to go?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You will all be gathered here (he pointed towards Shaam); some of you will be mounted, some will be on foot, and some will be dragged on their faces."

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.
