Muhjan al-Aslami said that Raja narrated: One day I was coming with Muhjan until we stopped at the mosque of the people of Basra, and Buraydah al-Aslami was sitting at one of the doors of the mosque. He says: And there was a man in the mosque whose name was Sakbah, and he used to pray for a very long time. When we reached the door of the mosque, Buraydah was wrapped in a cloak and he was a man who liked to joke and laugh. He said: O Muhjan! Do you pray like Sakbah prays? Muhjan did not answer him and turned back. Muhjan says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took my hand and we started walking until we climbed Mount Uhud, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) looked towards Madinah and said: "Woe to this village, its inhabitants will abandon it when it is very populated. The Dajjal will come to it and he will find an angel at each of its gates, so he will not be able to enter it." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) descended. When we reached the mosque, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a man praying, bowing and prostrating repeatedly, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me: "Who is this?" I began to praise him excessively. I said: O Messenger of Allah! He is so-and-so and so-and-so. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Stop, do not let him hear, otherwise you will destroy him." It is narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) walked until he reached his apartments, but when he got there, he (peace and blessings be upon him) dusted off his hands and then said: "The best of your religion is that which is easiest, the best of your religion is that which is easiest." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times.

It is narrated from Sayyida Umm Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with her), she said: Salman al-Farisi came to meet us, traveling from Mada’in to Sham, in such a state that he was wearing a shirt and «انْدَرْوَرْدُ» (i.e., such trousers that were above the shins). Ibn Shawdhab said: Salman was seen wearing a shirt that had no collar and it was very long and loose. So it was said to him,“You have made yourself look unattractive.”He replied:“Indeed, the true goodness is the goodness of the Hereafter.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, visited a household of the Ansar and ate food with them. When he was about to leave, he instructed regarding a place in the house, so a mat was spread there and water was sprinkled on that mat. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, performed voluntary prayer on it and supplicated for them.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) that he stated: Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) received a cloak made of thick silk. He took it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Buy this and wear it on Fridays and when distinguished people come to you as a delegation. Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Such clothes are worn by those who have no share in the Hereafter." Then some cloaks were brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He sent one cloak to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), one cloak to Sayyiduna Usama (may Allah be pleased with him), and one cloak to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! You have sent this to me while I have heard your statement about it?

The angel asked: 'Where are you going?' He replied: 'To visit a brother of mine who lives in this town.' The angel asked: 'Has he done you any favor which you are going to repay?' He replied: 'No, I only love him for the sake of Allah.' The angel said: 'I am a messenger to you from Allah (to inform you) that Allah loves you as you love him.'"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I said: O Messenger of Allah!

You will be with those whom you love." I said: I love Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). He said: "O Abu Dharr! You will be with those whom you love."
