Sayyiduna Arfajah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say, "Trials and turmoil are near. Then whoever seeks to disrupt the unity of this Ummah, whoever he may be, kill him."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever raises a weapon against us is not from among us, and whoever deceives us is also not from among us.

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty likes three things for you and dislikes three things. He likes that you worship Him and do not associate anyone with Him, and that you all hold fast to His rope (the Book and the Sunnah) together and do not be divided. And Allah Almighty dislikes idle talk, excessive questioning (i.e., asking about matters that are unnecessary or not needed, or questions that may be unpleasant to others), and wasting wealth (He dislikes it, such as in innovations, drinking alcohol, gambling, smoking, kite flying, fireworks, etc.).

Sa’d bin Ibrahim says: I asked Qasim bin Muhammad about a man who has three houses and he made a bequest of one-third (of each house) in each house. He said that the three thirds will be combined in one house. Then he said that Umm al-Mu’minin Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) informed that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever does an act for which we have not given a command (i.e., introduces a new practice in the religion), it is rejected.

Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) says that it was said to him, "Do you not go to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) and speak to him?" He replied, "Do you think I do not speak to him? Should I not let you hear? By Allah, I have spoken to him about matters between me and him. However, I did not wish to be the first to open a matter that someone else would open before me, and I do not say to anyone who is in authority over me that he is the best among all people (i.e., I do not flatter). I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: On the Day of Resurrection, a man will be brought and thrown into Hell. His intestines will come out and he will go around with them as a donkey goes around a millstone. The people of Hell will gather around him and ask, 'O so-and-so! What happened to you? Did you not command good and forbid evil?' He will say, 'I used to command good to others but did not do it myself, and I used to forbid evil to others but did not refrain from it myself.'"
