It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to him: "O Mu'adh bin Jabal!" He replied, "At your service, O Messenger of Allah, and may happiness be yours." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever dies in such a state that he bears witness with a sincere heart that there is no god but Allah, will enter Paradise." I asked, "Should I not inform the people of this?" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "No, I fear that they will rely on it and stop striving."

It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that (if the number of cows is less than thirty, I will not take their zakat until I present myself before the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, because) the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did not give me any instruction regarding cows being less than thirty.

The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) combined the Zuhr and Asr, and Maghrib and Isha prayers during the Battle of Tabuk.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent him to Yemen, he instructed him to take as zakat one-year-old cow from every thirty cows, and one two-year-old cow from every forty, and from every adult, to collect one dinar or its equivalent in Yemeni cloth called "Ma'afir."

It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever among the Muslims fights in the way of Allah even for the time it takes for milk to flow from a she-camel’s udder, Paradise becomes obligatory for him. And whoever sincerely asks Allah for martyrdom, and then dies a natural death, he will receive the reward of a martyr. And whoever is wounded or suffers any harm in the way of Allah, he will come on the Day of Resurrection with that wound flowing even more, but its color will be like saffron and its fragrance like musk. And whoever is wounded in the way of Allah, the seal of the martyrs is placed upon him.

It is narrated from Hazrat Burdah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Hazrat Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived in Yemen to Hazrat Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him). There he saw a man tied with ropes, so Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "What is the matter with him?" They replied, "He was a Jew who accepted Islam, but later returned to his disliked religion and became a Jew again. We have been trying to bring him back to Islam for about two months." Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I will not sit down until you kill him." So I killed him. Then he said, "The decision of Allah and His Messenger is that whoever turns back from his religion, kill him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey. During the journey, one day I had the privilege of being close to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! Tell me of an action that will admit me to Paradise and keep me away from Hell." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You have asked about a great matter, but it is easy for the one for whom Allah makes it easy: Worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him, establish prayer, pay zakat, fast in the month of Ramadan, and perform Hajj to the House of Allah." Then he said, "Shall I not tell you the doors of goodness? Fasting is a shield, charity extinguishes sins, and a man's prayer in the middle of the night is among the doors of goodness." Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse from Surah Sajda: 'Their sides forsake their beds...' until he reached 'they do.' Then he said, "Shall I not tell you about the foundation of the religion, its pillar, and its highest peak?" I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! Certainly." He said, "The foundation of this religion is Islam, its pillar is prayer, and its highest peak is jihad." Then he said, "Shall I not tell you the summary of all these things?" I submitted, "Why not, O Messenger of Allah!" So the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) held his tongue and said, "Restrain this." I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! Will we be held accountable for what we say?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (gently admonishing) said, "Mu'adh! May your mother lose you! Is there anything that topples people on their faces into Hell except the harvest of their tongues regarding others?"

It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by a man who was supplicating, "O Allah! I ask You for patience." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You are asking Allah for calamity; rather, ask Allah for well-being." (Then he passed by another man who was supplicating by saying, "Ya Dhal-Jalali wal-Ikram," and he said to him, "Your supplication will be accepted, so ask.") He passed by another man who was supplicating, "O Allah! I ask You for all blessings." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "O son of Adam! Do you know what is meant by 'all blessings'?" He replied, "I hope for the good of the supplication I made." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "All blessings mean that a person is saved from Hell and admitted into Paradise."

It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that (if the cows are less than thirty in number, I will not take their zakat until I present myself before the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, because) the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did not give me any instruction regarding cows being less than thirty.
