Ata, the servant of Sayyiduna Saib bin Yazid (may Allah be pleased with him), says: I saw the beard of Saib bin Yazid had turned white while his head had not turned white, so I said to him: O my master! What is the reason that your head has not turned white? He said: It will never turn white, because once the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by while I was playing with the children, and he (peace be upon him) greeted the children with salam, and among the children, I replied to the salam. So he (peace be upon him) called me and said: "What is your name?" I said: Saib bin Yazid bin Ukht al-Nimr. So he (peace be upon him) placed his hand on my head and said: "May Allah bless you." So the place where the hand of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) touched my head never turns white.

Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) on the pulpit, and with him was Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was saying: "This son of mine is a leader, and Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, will soon bring reconciliation between two great groups of Muslims through him."

Sayyiduna Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Ali, Sayyidah Fatimah, Sayyiduna Hasan, and Sayyiduna Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them all): "Whoever fights against you, I am also at war with him, and whoever is at peace with you, I am also at peace with him."

Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Every prophet has a special helper and supporter, and my helper is Zubair, who is the son of my paternal aunt."

Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) never struck any woman among his wives, nor did he ever strike anything with his hand except when striving in the way of Allah. And whatever harm the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) received from any companion, he never took revenge for it. But when the sanctities of Allah were violated and dishonored, he would take revenge for Allah's sake.

Lady Umm Salamah, may Allah be pleased with her, says: Is your Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, being reviled? Abu Abdullah Jadali said: I said: Glory be to Allah! How can this be, how can he, peace and blessings be upon him, be reviled? Lady Umm Salamah, may Allah be pleased with her, said: Is not Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, being reviled, and also the one who loves him? I bear witness that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, loved him.

Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him):“You are to me as Harun (peace be upon him) was to Musa (peace be upon him), except that there will be no prophet after me.”

Sayyiduna Abu Sa‘id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:“The example of my Ahl al-Bayt is like the Ark of Noah; whoever boarded it was saved, and whoever remained behind was drowned. And the example of my Ahl al-Bayt among you is like the Gate of Hittah among the Children of Israel; whoever entered it had his sins forgiven.”

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for my forgiveness twenty-five times; each time I counted with my own hands. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Have you paid your father's debt?" I would reply: Yes. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: "May Allah forgive you."

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) arrived in Madinah, I was eight years old at that time. My mother took me to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! The men and women of the Ansar have presented gifts to you, but I do not have any such gift to present to you, except that I have this son of mine; please accept him, and whatever you command, he will serve you. Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Then I served the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) for ten years. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) never hit me, nor ever abused me, nor ever frowned at me. The best advice the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave me was this: He said,“Son! Keep my secret, you will become a believer.”So I never told anyone the Prophet’s secret, not even my mother, and when the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would ask me about his secret, I would not tell them either, and I never told anyone. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to me:“Son! Complete your ablution (wudu), your life will be lengthened, and your guardian angels will love you.”Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Son! If you are able to sleep in a state of ablution, then do so, because whoever dies in a state of ablution attains the rank of martyrdom.”Then he said:“If you are able to always perform prayer, then do so, because the angels will always pray for mercy upon you as long as you are praying.”Then he said:“Son! Avoid distraction in prayer, for distraction in prayer is destruction. If necessary, do so in voluntary prayers, but do not do so in obligatory prayers.”Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“When you bow (ruku‘), place your palms on your knees, spread your fingers, and keep your hands apart from your sides. When you raise your head from ruku‘, every joint should return to its place, because whoever does not straighten his back in ruku‘ and sujud, Allah Almighty will not look at him on the Day of Resurrection.”Then he said:“Son! When you prostrate, do not peck like a rooster, nor sit like a dog, nor spread your forearms like a beast, and place the tops of your feet on the ground, and rest your buttocks on your heels, because performing prayer in this way will make your reckoning easier for you on the Day of Resurrection.”Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Son! Perform the ritual bath (ghusl) of major impurity well; when you come out of the bathhouse, no minor or major sin will remain upon you.”I said: May my parents be sacrificed for you, how should I perform ghusl thoroughly and well? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Wet the roots of your hair and cleanse your body.”Then he said:“Son! If you can designate a portion of your voluntary prayers for your home, then do so, because in this way there will be much goodness and blessing in your house.”Then he said:“Son! When you enter your house, greet its people with salam; this will be a blessing for you and your household.”Then he said:“Son! When you leave your house, greet with salam every person of the Qiblah (Muslims) whom your eyes fall upon; in this way your good deeds will increase.”Then he said:“Son! If you can make your mornings and evenings such that there is no malice or deceit in your heart towards anyone, then do so.”Then he said:“Son! When you leave your house, consider everyone of the Qiblah whom you see as better and superior to yourself.”Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Son! Guard my advice, and let nothing be dearer to you than death.”Then he said:“Son! This is my Sunnah, and whoever revives my Sunnah, it is as if he has loved me, and whoever has loved me will be with me on the Day of Resurrection.”
