It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that I used to serve the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When I finished my work, I would come to the mosque and lie down. One day, while I was lying down, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came and nudged me with his blessed foot. I sat up straight. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "O Abu Dharr! What will you do when you are expelled from Madinah?" I replied, "I will return to Masjid Nabawi and my house." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "And when you are expelled from there as well, what will you do?" I replied, "At that time, I will take my sword and whoever tries to expel me, I will strike him with my sword." Upon hearing this, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand on my shoulder and said three times, "Abu Dharr! Be forgiving, go wherever they take you, even if your ruler is an Abyssinian slave." Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) says that when I was exiled to Rabadhah and the prayer was established, a black man who was in charge of the zakat animals stepped forward to lead the prayer. When he saw me, he stepped back and wanted to bring me forward, but I said to him, "You remain in your place; I will act upon the command of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Islam is by nature an easy religion, and only an easy-going person rides upon it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Two men are better than one, three are better than two, and four are better than three. Therefore, it is obligatory upon you to adhere to the congregation, for Allah Almighty will never cause my Ummah to agree upon anything other than guidance.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: If any of you loves his companion, he should go to his house and inform him that he loves him for the sake of Allah. And O Abu Dharr! I have come to your house for this very reason.

Ghudaif bin Harith says that once he passed by Hazrat Umar Farooq (may Allah be pleased with him), and Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Ghudaif is an excellent young man." Then he met Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him), who said, "Brother! Pray for my forgiveness." Ghudaif said, "You are a companion of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and you are more deserving that you pray for my forgiveness." He replied, "I heard Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) say that Ghudaif is an excellent young man, and the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that Allah has made the truth flow on Umar's tongue and heart."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was walking with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is something other than the Dajjal from which I fear for my Ummah the most." He repeated this sentence three times. I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What is that thing from which you fear for your Ummah the most, and it is other than the Dajjal?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Misguiding leaders."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was walking with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is something other than the Dajjal from which I fear for my Ummah the most." He repeated this sentence three times. I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What is that thing from which you fear for your Ummah the most, and it is other than the Dajjal?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Misguiding leaders."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me, "O Abu Dharr! Shall I not guide you to one of the treasures of Paradise? Say: La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I have been given five such characteristics which were not given to any prophet before me. Thus, I have been helped through awe, and the enemy becomes overawed by me from a distance of one month's journey. The entire earth has been made a place of prostration and a means of purification for me. The spoils of war have been made lawful for me, which were not made lawful for anyone before me. I have been sent to every red and black (i.e., to all mankind), and it was said to me: "Ask, you will be given." So I have reserved this right for the intercession of my Ummah, and this intercession will reach every one of you who meets Allah in such a state that he does not associate anyone with Him.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The sun sets under the Throne; it is granted permission, so it returns. When that night comes in which the morning will see the sun rising from the west, it will not be granted permission. And when morning comes, it will be said to it: Rise from the place where you set. Then he recited this verse: "They are waiting for nothing except that the angels should come to them, or your Lord should come, or some sign of your Lord should come."
