It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "I will be the first person to knock at the door of Paradise." Anas said: It is as if I am still seeing the blessed hand of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, moving. Sufyan, may Allah have mercy on him, described its manner by saying that Abu Abdullah gathered his fingers and moved them. The narrator said: Thabit said to him: Did your hand touch the hand of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him? He said: Yes. He said: Give it to me so that I may kiss it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I will be the first person to intercede in Paradise."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:“I will be the very first person for whom the earth will be split open on the Day of Resurrection, and there is no pride in this. I will be given the banner of praise of Allah, and there is no pride in this. I will be the leader of all people on the Day of Resurrection, and there is no pride in this. And I will be the first to enter Paradise on the Day of Resurrection, and there is no pride in this. I will come to the door of Paradise and knock on its ring. They will say: Who is this? I will reply: I am Muhammad. They will open the door for me, and I will find the Compeller (the One of Might and Wrath) before me. I will fall into prostration. (The Lord of Majesty) will say: O Muhammad! Raise your head and speak, you will be heard; ask, you will be granted; intercede, your intercession will be accepted. So I will raise my head and say: My Ummah, O my Lord! It will be said: Go to your Ummah, and whoever has faith equal to a grain of barley in his heart, admit him to Paradise. I will go and admit into Paradise whoever I find with that much faith in his heart. Before me will be (my Lord) the Compeller, and I will prostrate to Him. It will be said: O Muhammad, raise your head and speak, you will be heard; ask, you will be granted; intercede, your intercession will be accepted. I will raise my head and say: O Lord! My Ummah, my Ummah! It will be said: Go to your Ummah, and whoever has faith equal to a grain of mustard seed in his heart, admit him to Paradise. I will go to my Ummah and admit into Paradise whoever I find with that much faith in his heart. By then, the reckoning will have been completed, and those of my Ummah who remain will be cast into Hell. The people of Hell will say: No one was richer than you; you used to worship Allah and did not associate anyone with Him. The Mighty, the Compeller, will say: By My honor, I will free them from Hell. Thus, they will also be taken out of Hell, and their faces will be scorched. They will all be thrown into the River of Life, and they will grow out from it just as vegetation grows out from the debris carried by water. And it will be written between their eyes: These are the freed ones of Allah. Then they will be taken and admitted into Paradise. The people of Paradise will say to them: These are the people of Hell. The Compeller will say: (No), these are the freed ones of the Compeller.”

Abdur Rahman bin Ghanm narrated that Jibreel (peace be upon him) descended to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), split open his chest, and then said: "It is a very strong heart in which there are two listening ears and two seeing eyes. Muhammad is Allah’s last Messenger and the Gatherer (Hashir). Your character is pure, your tongue is truthful, and your soul is content." Imam Darimi said: The meaning of «وكيع» is "strong."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Amr bin Qais (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah looked at the moment of mercy and He shortened (the time) for me, thus we came at the end of all (nations), but on the Day of Resurrection we will be the first among the people. I am saying one thing to you without pride: Ibrahim is Allah's Khalil (close friend), and Musa is Allah's chosen friend, and I am Allah's beloved. The banner of praise will be in my hand on the Day of Resurrection. And Allah has promised me regarding my Ummah and granted them deliverance from three things: He will not afflict all of them with famine (i.e., a punishment will not come upon the entire Ummah at once), nor will any enemy be able to destroy all of them, and He will not let the entire Ummah gather upon misguidance."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muslima al-Sakuni (may Allah be pleased with him) that we were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when a man said: O Messenger of Allah! Has food been provided to you from the sky? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, food was brought to me." He said: O Prophet of Allah! Was any of it left over? He replied: "Yes, some was left." He asked: Then what happened to it? He said: "It was raised up to the sky, and it was revealed to me that I will stay among you for only a short time, and you will remain and will say, 'When? When?' (i.e., when will the Hour come?), then you will come to me in small groups, killing each other, and near the Hour there will be many deaths, and after that, years of earthquakes will come."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) that a vessel filled with tharid was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and placed before the people, and from morning till noon people kept eating from it in turns; one group would stand up and another group would sit down. A man said to Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him): Was anything else added to this vessel or bowl? Sayyiduna Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Why are you surprised? And he pointed towards the sky and said: Food was coming into it from there.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah, may Allah be pleased with him, that I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, on a moonlit night wearing a red garment. I would look at him and then at the full moon, and in my sight, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was more beautiful than the full moon.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that there was a gap between the two front teeth of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). When he (peace be upon him) spoke, rays of light were seen shining from between those two teeth.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that I have not seen anyone more helpful, generous, courageous, and beautiful than the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
