Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "During my prayer, Satan came before me. I seized him and strangled him, until I felt the coolness of his tongue on the back of my hand. If it were not for the supplication of my brother, Sayyiduna Sulaiman (peace be upon him), that came to my mind, that Satan would have been tied up until morning and you people would have seen him."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A strong demon from among the jinn came to me last night to spoil my prayer, but Allah enabled me to overpower him. At first, I intended to catch him and tie him to one of the pillars of the mosque so that all of you could see him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then I remembered the statement of my brother, Sayyiduna Sulaiman (peace be upon him): 'My Lord, forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as will not belong to anyone after me.' The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So Allah made that devil return in disgrace."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): "Sayyiduna Sulaiman bin Dawood (peace be upon them) asked Allah Almighty for three things. Allah Almighty granted him two of those things, and I hope that Allah Almighty also granted him the third. He asked Allah Almighty for such a kingdom that no one after him would have the like of it, so Allah Almighty granted him that. And he asked Allah Almighty for the ability to judge according to Allah's decision, so Allah Almighty granted him that as well. He prayed to Allah Almighty that whoever comes to this House (the Prophet, peace be upon him, meant Bayt al-Maqdis) with the sole intention of offering prayer there, then that person would come out of his sins as on the day his mother gave birth to him. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: I hope that Allah Almighty also granted him this third thing."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "I was helped by the Saba wind, and the people of 'Ad were destroyed by the Dabbur (i.e., a fierce wind)."

Sayyida Hafsa (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never abandoned four things: fasting on the day of Ashura, fasting three days every month, and the two rak‘ahs (Sunnah) before the Fajr prayer.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abu Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) used to remember Allah abundantly. He did not engage in idle talk. He performed long prayers. And he delivered short sermons. He did not hesitate to walk with a widow or a poor person and fulfill their need.

Sayyiduna Ibn Abu Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to remember Allah abundantly, did not engage in idle talk, performed long prayers, delivered short sermons, and did not hesitate or consider it beneath him to walk with a widow or a poor person and fulfill their need.

Sayyiduna Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) five days before his passing, delivering a sermon to the people, in which he said: "O people! There was brotherhood and friendship among you before, and I declare myself free before Allah from having taken any one of you as a close friend (khalil). If I were to take anyone from my Ummah as a close friend, I would have taken Abu Bakr as my close friend. Indeed, Allah Almighty has taken me as His close friend, just as He took Sayyiduna Ibrahim (peace be upon him) as His close friend. The people before you used to turn the graves of their prophets and righteous people into places of worship, so do not turn graves into mosques; I forbid you from this."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying: "Your master is the Khalil (close friend) of Allah, the Exalted."
