It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "No person should call grapevines 'karm', for indeed, the truly noble (karm) is the Muslim person."

In another narration reported from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "People call grapevines 'Karam', whereas true 'Karam' is only the heart of a believer."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:“By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! Indeed, the example of a believer is like a piece of gold; when the owner blows upon it (after putting it in the furnace), it neither changes nor diminishes. By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! Indeed, the example of a believer is like a honeybee; it eats that which is pure (like a flower), produces that which is pure (like honey), and when it sits on something, it neither breaks it nor spoils it.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The example of a believer is like that of a wheat plant, which sometimes bends down and sometimes stands upright, and the example of a disbeliever is like that of a pine tree, which always remains standing straight until it falls down, while it has no awareness at all."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The example of a believer is like that of a horse tied with a ringed rope; it wanders around, but eventually returns to its rope. Indeed, a believer forgets, but then returns to faith."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Islam is ease, and it is granted only to the one who is gentle."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:“Indeed, Islam began as something strange, and soon it will return to being strange as it was in the beginning. So glad tidings to the strangers of that time, when corruption will have spread in the rest of the era. By the One in whose hand is the soul of Abu al-Qasim! Faith will seek refuge towards these two mosques just as a snake seeks refuge in its hole.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Sannah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Islam began in a state of estrangement, and soon it will return to being as strange as it began, so glad tidings are for the strangers." Someone asked: "O Messenger of Allah! Who are the strangers?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "They are those who, when corruption spreads among the people, they reform (the situation). By the One in Whose hand is my soul! Faith will retreat to Madinah just as a flood flows towards its lowest point. By the One in Whose hand is my soul! Islam will seek refuge between these two mosques just as a snake seeks refuge in its hole."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The religion was unfamiliar at its beginning, and soon it will become unfamiliar again, so glad tidings are for the unfamiliar ones who adopt it."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated this same hadith from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with the word "Islam" instead of "Deen," and in it these additional words are present: Someone asked, "Who are the unfamiliar people?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "Those who have become distant from their tribes (and relatives)."
