Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "On the Day of Resurrection, the first three people about whom judgment will be passed will be: a martyr, he will be brought before Allah, He will remind him of His blessings, and he will recognize them. He (Allah) will say: What did you do about them? He will say: I fought in Your cause until I was martyred. He (Allah) will say: You have lied, you fought so that it would be said: He is brave, and so it was said. Then He will command regarding him, and he will be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire. Another man will be brought who acquired knowledge and taught it, and recited the Qur'an. He will remind him of His blessings, and he will recognize them. He (Allah) will say: What did you do about them? He will say: I acquired knowledge, taught it for Your sake, and recited the Qur'an. He (Allah) will say: You have lied, you acquired knowledge so that it would be said: So-and-so is a scholar, so-and-so is a reciter, and so it was said. Then He will command regarding him, and he will be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire. Then a man will be brought to whom Allah had given all kinds of wealth. He will remind him of His blessings, and he will recognize them. He (Allah) will say: What did you do about them? He will say: I did not leave any path or place where You like spending, except that I spent there. He (Allah) will say: You have lied, you did so that it would be said: He is generous, and so it was said. Then He will command regarding him, and he will be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said in the explanation of Allah’s statement:“You are the best nation brought forth for mankind,”: We will bring them in chains and we will admit them (into Islam).

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from the expedition of Tabuk and his mount was ahead of him, suddenly a Bedouin passed by with a fat, strong camel, reciting rajaz poetry, and the Prophet’s mount trembled. A man said: If his energy and strength were in the way of Allah, and if he is returned to his family, then he is in the way of Allah. (Upon hearing this) the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“If his energy and strength are returned to his parents so that he may serve and suffice them, then he is in the way of Allah, and if he is returned to his family, then he is in the way of Allah, and if his intention is mutual boasting and increasing wealth, then he is in the way of Taghut (falsehood).”

With the same chain of narration, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "By Allah! Spending a morning or an evening in the way of Allah is better than the world and whatever is in it."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The truly deprived one is he who was deprived from the distribution of the spoils of Banu Kalb."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever receives a wound in the way of Allah, he will come on the Day of Resurrection with its color like the color of blood, while its fragrance will be that of musk."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace be upon him) said: "Allah is extremely angry with the person whom the Messenger of Allah has killed, and Allah is also extremely angry with the person who adopts the name 'King of Kings' (Shahanshah); there is no king except Allah."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: Rifaa’ah bin Zaid Al-Judhami (may Allah be pleased with him) sent a slave to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he set out with him towards Khaybar. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from Khaybar, he stayed in the valley of ‘Ashiyyah between ‘Asr and Maghrib. That slave stood up and began to unload the saddle from the riding animal of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), when suddenly an arrow came from an unknown direction and struck him, and he was killed. We said:“Congratulations to you for Paradise!”The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Never! By the One in Whose hand is my soul! The cloak which he stole from the spoils of the Muslims at the time of the battle of Khaybar is now burning upon him as a flame of fire.”The narrator said: One of your companions came in a state of fear and said:“O Messenger of Allah! I had picked up two straps of shoes.”So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“For both of them, two similar things will be prepared for you in Hell.”

Sayyida Rubayyi' bint Mu'awwidh bin 'Afra' (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: We used to participate in battles with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and we would give water to (the fighters) and serve them, and we would transport the martyrs and the wounded to Madinah.

It is narrated from Ata bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him), a woman told him, she said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) slept, then woke up smiling. She asked: O Messenger of Allah! Did you laugh because of me? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather because of some people from my Ummah who will undertake a naval expedition; their example is like that of kings on thrones." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) then slept again, then woke up smiling and said: "Some people from my Ummah will set out for a naval expedition; they will receive little spoils of war but they will be forgiven." She asked: O Messenger of Allah! Pray to Allah that He includes me among them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for her. The narrator said: Ata bin Yasar (may Allah have mercy on him) informed us that the woman participated in the expedition of Al-Mundhir bin Zubair, which was towards the land of Rome; she was with them and she passed away in the land of Rome.
