Narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse of the Holy Qur'an: Allah is He Who has sent down to you the Book; in it are verses that are precise—they are the foundation of the Book—and others are ambiguous. As for those in whose hearts is deviation, they follow what is ambiguous thereof, seeking discord and seeking its interpretation. But no one knows its interpretation except Allah. And those firm in knowledge say: "We believe in it; all is from our Lord." And none will be reminded except those of understanding. And he said: When you see those who argue about the verses of the Qur'an, they are the ones Allah meant, so beware of them.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever recites the Noble Qur'an with proficiency will be with the righteous and honorable angels, and whoever recites it with difficulty and perseverance will have a double reward.

Abu Atiyyah says that once I and Masruq went to the service of Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and said to her, "O Mother of the Believers! There are two companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him), one of whom hastens in breaking the fast and also in prayer, while the other delays both breaking the fast and prayer." She asked, "Who is the one who hastens in breaking the fast and prayer?" We replied, "Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him)." She said, "The Prophet (peace be upon him) also used to do the same." And the other companion was Hazrat Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him).

Ibn Ja'far narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, from Sulayman, he said: I heard Khaythamah, and he said: "He hastens the breaking of the fast and delays the suhur."

Mu’ammal narrated to us, Sufyan narrated to us, from Al-A’mash, from ‘Umara, from Abu ‘Atiyyah, who said: We said to Aisha: Two men from the companions of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, one of them hastens the Maghrib and hastens the breaking of the fast, and the other delays the Maghrib and delays the breaking of the fast, so she mentioned it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that once I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) supplicating in a prayer: "O Allah! Make my reckoning easy." When he finished the prayer, I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What is meant by an easy reckoning?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied, "His book of deeds will be looked at and he will be pardoned. Aisha! On that day, whoever is questioned in detail about his account will be destroyed. And whatever hardship befalls a Muslim, even if a thorn pricks him, Allah, the Exalted, makes it an expiation for his sins."

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) departed from this world in my house, on the day of my turn, between my chest and throat. That day, Abdur Rahman bin Abi Bakr came, and in his hand was a fresh miswak. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used the miswak with such excellence that I had never seen him use it in that manner before. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his hand to give it to me, but the miswak fell from his hand. Seeing this, I began to recite those supplications which Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) used to recite at the time of the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) illness, but on this occasion, he had not recited those supplications. Meanwhile, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his gaze towards the sky and said, "The Highest Companion, the Highest Companion," and at that very moment, the blessed soul of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) departed. In every situation, all praise is due to Allah, who united my saliva with that of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the last day of his life.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would enter the morning, he would perform two short rak'ahs, then lie down on his right side.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that we had a curtain on which there was a picture of a bird. Whenever someone entered the house, the first thing they would see was that curtain. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me, "Aisha! Change this curtain. Whenever I enter the house and my eyes fall upon it, the world comes to my mind." Similarly, we had a sheet about which we used to say that its designs were of silk, and we used to wear it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade killing snakes that live in houses, except for those snakes that have a short tail or two stripes, because such snakes cause blindness and cause women to miscarry, and whoever leaves these snakes (without killing them) is not from among us.
