Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: "Indeed, the greatest reward comes with the greatest trial, and indeed, when Allah the Mighty and Majestic loves a people, He puts them to trial. Then whoever is content (with the trial), for him is pleasure, and whoever is displeased, for him is displeasure."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Indeed, on the Day of Resurrection, the severest punishment among the people will be for that scholar whose knowledge did not benefit him from what Allah had given him.”

Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: "Indeed, the worst person in the sight of Allah on the Day of Resurrection will be the one whom people avoid meeting because of his obscene speech." There is an incident in this narration which I have summarized.

Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that a man sought permission to enter upon the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, he is a bad man of his tribe." Then when he entered, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke to him openly and cheerfully. When he left, another man sought permission. When he sought permission, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is a good man of his tribe." Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: When that man entered, you did not speak to him openly as you had spoken to the first one, nor did you show him such cheerfulness. She says: When he left, I said: O Messenger of Allah! You said what you said about so-and-so, then you spoke to him openly and cheerfully, and you said what you said about the other, but I did not see you treat him in that way? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Aisha! Indeed, the worst person among people is the one whom people avoid because of his foul language."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, the worst person among the people in the sight of Allah Almighty is the one who ruins his Hereafter for the sake of someone else's worldly life."

Sayyiduna Abu Sa‘id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:“Indeed, among the wretched, the greatest wretch is the one upon whom the poverty of this world and the punishment of the Hereafter are combined.”This hadith is concise.

Sayyiduna Amr bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Indeed, I fear three things for my Ummah after me: the slipping of a scholar, an oppressive ruler, and the following of desires."

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, I am grabbing hold of your waists, preventing you from (falling into) Hell, and you are falling into it just as moths and rain insects fall into the fire."

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, I am holding onto your waists, preventing you from the Hellfire, and you are falling into it just as moths and rain insects fall into the fire."

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, I am holding your waists, keeping you away from the Fire, but you are forcefully falling into it just as moths and rainy season insects fall into the fire. Soon your waists will be let go, and (listen) I will be your forerunner at the Hawd (Pond) of Kawthar. There you will come separately and together; I will recognize you by your marks and names just as a man recognizes a strange camel among his own camels (with ease). And you will be taken to the left side. I will plead to the Lord of the worlds about you, saying: O my Lord! These are my people, O my Lord! These are my people. Then it will be said: Indeed, you do not know what innovations they introduced after you. Indeed, after you, they kept turning back on their heels (from the religion). (Listen!) I will surely recognize among you the person who will come on the Day of Resurrection carrying a bleating goat, and he will call out: O Muhammad! O Muhammad! I will say: I can do nothing for you; I had conveyed (the message of Allah). And I will surely recognize among you the person who will come on the Day of Resurrection carrying a bellowing camel, and he will call out: O Muhammad! O Muhammad! But I will say: I can do nothing for you; I had conveyed (the message of Allah). And I will surely recognize among you the person who will come on the Day of Resurrection carrying a neighing horse, and he will call out: O Muhammad! O Muhammad! But I will say: I can do nothing for you; I had conveyed (the message of Allah). And I will surely recognize among you the person who will come on the Day of Resurrection carrying a water-skin, and he will call out: O Muhammad! O Muhammad! But I will say: I can do nothing for you; I had conveyed (the message of Allah)."
