Fadl bin Hasan Damri narrates from Umm Hakam or Dubaa’ah, who are both daughters of Zubair bin Abdul Muttalib, she says: Some captives were brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I, my sister, and Fatimah went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), complained to him about our difficulties, and requested that some captives be assigned to us. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“The orphans of Badr have preceded you (and have taken all the captives), but I will tell you something that is better for you than captives, (and that is) after every prayer, say «الله اكبر» thirty-three times, «سبحان الله» thirty-three times, «الحمد لله» thirty-three times, and (to complete one hundred) say once «‏‏‏‏لا اله الا الله وحدو لا شريك له، له الملك وله الحمد، وهو على كل شيء قدير» There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, He is alone, He has no partner, to Him belongs the dominion and to Him belongs all praise, and He is capable of all things.”

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Severe miserliness and severe cowardice are the worst traits found in a person."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "O people! Buy your souls from Allah with the wealth He has given you. If anyone is miserly and does not give his wealth to people, then let him begin with spending on himself and give charity to his own self (and that is in such a way) that he eats and wears from the provision Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has given him."

Sayyiduna Abd Muzani (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is «فرع» in the camel and also in the goats."

Ibn Buraidah narrates from his father, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "When a (Muslim) servant gives charity, he breaks the jaws of seventy (70) devils with it."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever seeks refuge by invoking Allah, grant him refuge, and whoever asks you in the name of Allah, then give to him."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that we were sitting when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us and said: "Shall I tell you about the person who is the best in rank?" We said: Why not. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is the man who holds the reins of his horse in the way of Allah (i.e., he is ready to fight along with his horse) until he dies or is martyred." Then he said: "Now shall I tell you about the person who is next in rank after him?" We said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah! He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is the man who resides in a mountain pass, establishes prayer, pays zakat, and keeps away from people." Then he said: "Now shall I also tell you about the person who is the worst in rank?" We said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah! He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is the one who, when asked in the name of Allah, the Most Great, does not give."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Whoever seeks refuge with you by Allah’s name, grant him refuge; and whoever asks you by Allah’s name, give to him; and whoever invites you, accept his invitation; and whoever seeks your help for Allah’s sake, help him; and whoever does good to you, repay him, and if you do not have the means to repay him, then pray for him (and pray so much) until you feel that you have repaid him.”

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever seeks refuge with you by Allah's name, grant him refuge; and whoever asks you by Allah's name, give to him; and whoever invites you, accept his invitation; and whoever seeks your help for Allah's sake, help him; and whoever does good to you, repay him, and if you do not have the means to repay him, then pray for him (and pray so much) until you feel that you have repaid him."

Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was ill, so I went to him. I saw that he wanted to sit up, and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was swaying due to drowsiness. I said: O Messenger of Allah! I think that Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) stayed awake with you during the night, so should I not come close to you (to support you)? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Ali is more deserving of this service than you." So Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) came close to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and supported him. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "Whoever's life ends in such a state that he had been feeding a poor person hoping for reward from Allah, he will enter Paradise. Whoever's life ends in such a state that he had been fasting hoping for reward from Allah, he will enter Paradise. And whoever's end comes in such a state that he had been reciting «لا اله الا الله» hoping for reward from Allah, he too will enter Paradise."
