It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Graves remind their visitors of the Hereafter. Wash the dead, for tending to a lifeless body is a most effective admonition. And offer the funeral prayers, perhaps that will make you sorrowful (concerned), for the sorrowful one will be in the shade of Allah on the Day of Resurrection." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Hani, the freed slave of Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), that he said: I saw Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) that whenever he stood at a grave, he would weep so much that his beard became wet (with tears). It was said to him: You do not weep when Paradise and Hell are mentioned, yet you weep at the mention of this (the grave)? He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "The grave is the first of the stages of the Hereafter. If (a person) is saved from it, what comes after it is easier than it; and if he is not saved from it, what comes after it is harder than it." And I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "I have not seen any sight more horrifying than the grave." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Habib bin Maslamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) invited a Bedouin to take retaliation (qisas) from his own person for a scratch that the Bedouin had received from him (peace and blessings be upon him) unintentionally. Then Jibril (peace be upon him) came and said: O Muhammad! Allah did not send you as a tyrant or an arrogant one. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called the Bedouin and said: "Take retaliation from me." The Bedouin said: May my father and mother be sacrificed for you! I have forgiven you, and I would never do that, even if you were to take my life. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for good for him. Imam al-Hakim says: Ahmad bin Ubayd is alone in narrating it from Muhammad bin Mus'ab, and Muhammad bin Mus'ab is trustworthy (thiqah).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: I love you, the People of the House (Ahl al-Bayt). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Truly, by Allah?" He said: By Allah! He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then prepare a shield for poverty, for poverty reaches the one who loves us faster than a flood flowing down from a height." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Miqdam bin Ma'dikarib al-Kindi (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "The son of Adam has not filled any vessel worse than his stomach. Three morsels are enough for the son of Adam to keep his back upright. But if (eating more) is unavoidable, then let him keep one third for his food, one third for his drink, and one third (empty) for his breath." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Muhammad bin Wasi' al-Azdi (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: I went to Bilal bin Abi Burdah bin Abi Musa and said: O Bilal! Your father told me, on the authority of your grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, in Hell there is a valley, and in that valley there is a well called Habhab. It is a right upon Allah Almighty that He will lodge in it every tyrant and oppressor." So fear Allah lest you become one of its inhabitants. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
