It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) once entered the mosque and saw a rope hanging between two pillars. He asked, "What is this rope?" The people replied, "This is Zainab's rope. When she feels lazy or tired while praying, she ties herself to it." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Untie it." Then he said, "When any one of you prays, he should pray as long as he remains energetic, and when he feels lazy or tired, he should stop."

The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The lower garment should be up to the middle of the shin. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw that this was causing difficulty for the Muslims, he said: Make it up to the ankles; there is no good in letting it go below that.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that during the blessed era of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), there was once a drought. On a Friday, while the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was delivering the sermon, a Bedouin stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The wealth is being destroyed and the children are hungry. Please pray to Allah to bless us with rain." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his hands and supplicated for rain. At the time when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his blessed hands, we could not see any clouds in the sky. Then clouds like mountains appeared, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had not even descended from the pulpit when we saw rainwater dripping from his blessed beard... Then the narrator mentioned the entire hadith.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A person grows old, but two things always remain in him: desire and hope.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sometimes a person spends his entire life or a long period of time performing good deeds, so that if he were to die in that state, he would enter Paradise. But then a change occurs in him and he becomes involved in sins. Similarly, a man remains involved in such sins for a long period of time that if he were to die in that state, he would enter Hell, but then a change occurs in him and he becomes engaged in good deeds.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to frequently supplicate: "O Turner of the hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your religion." Once we said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! We have believed in you and in what you have brought; do you fear anything concerning us?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "The heart is between two fingers from among the fingers of Allah; He turns them as He wills."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his fingers on the ground and said: "This is the son of Adam." Then he lifted them and placed them a little behind and said: "This is his death." Then he moved his hand forward and said three times: "These are his hopes."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to be pleased with good dreams and sometimes would ask, "Has any of you seen a dream?" If someone had seen a dream, he would ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for its interpretation. If there was nothing distressing in it, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would also be pleased with that. In this context, a woman came and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I saw in a dream as if I entered Paradise. There I heard a voice that made Paradise tremble. Suddenly, I saw that so-and-so son of so-and-so and so-and-so son of so-and-so were being brought." She mentioned the names of twelve men whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had previously sent on an expedition. The woman stated that when they were brought there, the clothes on their bodies had turned black and their veins were swollen. Someone said to them, "Take these people to the river Sadkh or the river Baydakh." So they were made to dive into it, and when they came out, their faces were shining like the full moon of the fourteenth night. Then golden chairs were brought, and they sat on them. Then a tray was brought in which there were fresh dates, and they began to eat those dates. During this, whichever date they turned over, they would find fruit to eat as they wished, and I also kept eating with them. After some time, a man from that army came with the news of victory and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Such and such happened with us, and so-and-so and so-and-so were martyred." While saying this, he mentioned the same twelve men whose names the woman had told. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Call this woman to me again." When she came, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her, "Describe your dream in front of this man." She described it, and he said, "It happened exactly as she has described to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)."

Abdur Rahman Asam says that a person asked Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) about the command of saying Takbeer in prayer, so I heard him replying that when a person bows (ruku), prostrates (sajda), raises his head from prostration, and stands between two rak'ahs, he should say Takbeer. Hakeem asked him, "From whom do you remember this hadith?" He replied, "From the Prophet (peace be upon him) and from Hazrat Abu Bakr and Umar (may Allah be pleased with them)." Then he became silent. Hakeem asked him, "Also from Hazrat Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him)?" He replied, "Yes!"
