Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are three qualities, whoever possesses them will taste the sweetness of faith: One is that Allah and His Messenger are more beloved to him than anything else; (second) that he loves a person and he loves him only for the sake of Allah; and (third) that he hates to return to disbelief just as he would hate to be thrown into the fire."

Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "Three things are obligatory upon every Muslim: visiting the sick, attending the funeral, and when a person who sneezes says 'Alhamdulillah', to respond to him."

Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):“A Muslim has four rights over another Muslim. When he falls ill, visit him; when he dies, attend his funeral; when he sneezes, respond to his sneeze; and when he invites you, accept his invitation.”

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: A Muslim has five rights over another Muslim: returning the greeting of salam, visiting the sick, accompanying the funeral, accepting invitations, and responding to one who sneezes.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“A Muslim has six rights over another Muslim.”The people asked:“O Messenger of Allah! What are they?”He replied:“When he meets him, he should greet him with salam; when he invites him, he should accept his invitation; when he seeks his advice, he should advise him sincerely; when he sneezes and praises Allah, he should respond to him; when he is ill, he should visit him; and when he dies, he should accompany his funeral.”

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Who will tell me about a tree whose example is like that of a believing servant, whose foundation is strong, and its branches are in the sky? It gives fruit at all times by the permission of its Lord." Sayyiduna Abdullah says: I intended to say that it is the date-palm tree, but due to the presence of my father, I could not do so. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is the date-palm tree. (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates later) I mentioned this to my father, so he said: If you had said this at that time, it would have been more beloved to me. The narrator says: I think the words in the narration are: more beloved than red camels.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once we were sitting with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). During that time, "Jumar" (the gum of the date-palm tree) was brought, so the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: There is a tree whose blessing is like that of a Muslim. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I thought that it would be the date-palm tree. Then I looked at those present, and I was the tenth person among ten people there, and I was the youngest among them. Therefore, I remained silent. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: It is the date-palm tree.

Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: One day the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said to his companions: Tell me about a tree whose example is like that of a believing servant. The narrator says: People began discussing various trees of the forest. Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: It occurred to me that it could be the date palm tree. At first, I was about to say this, but when I considered the ages of those present, I did not have the courage to speak. No one could answer this question, so the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: It is the date palm tree.

Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Indeed, among the trees there is a tree whose leaves do not fall, and its example is like that of a Muslim. Tell me, which tree is it?" The people began to think about the various trees of the forest. Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: It came to my mind that it is the date-palm tree, but I felt shy. Then the people said: O Messenger of Allah! Please tell us which tree it is. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: It is the date-palm tree. (The narrator says) Later, I mentioned this to Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: If you had said at that time that it is the date-palm tree, it would have been more beloved to me than such and such thing.

Sayyiduna Abu Razin (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The example of a believer is like that of a date palm tree, which only consumes pure things and only gives pure things."

Imam Ibn Hibban (may Allah have mercy on him) says: The narrator named Shu’bah made a mistake in narrating the name of the narrator as "Adas." The correct word is "Hadas," as narrated by Hammad bin Salamah and other authorities.
