It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Khadijah is coming to you with a vessel in which there is some curry or food or drink. When she reaches you, convey to her greetings of peace from her Lord and from me, and give her the glad tidings of a house in Paradise made of pearls, in which there will be neither noise nor any fatigue.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty has taken it upon Himself regarding the person who sets out in His path, that if he sets out only with the intention of striving in My path, believing in Me and affirming My Messenger, then it is My responsibility to admit him into Paradise or to return him to his abode in such a state that he has attained reward or spoils of war.

By the One in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), whoever is wounded in the path of Allah, he will come on the Day of Resurrection in the same fresh state as he was on the day he was wounded. Its color will be like blood, but its fragrance will be like musk.

By the One in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), if I did not think that it would be hard on the Muslims, I would never stay behind any expedition that sets out in the path of Allah, but I do not find the means so that they could follow me, nor would they be pleased in their hearts, and after me, they would begin to stay behind from participating in jihad. By the One in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), I wish that I strive in the path of Allah and attain martyrdom, then be given life, then participate in jihad and be martyred, then participate in jihad and be martyred.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Forgive those who have their heads shaved. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) submitted: O Messenger of Allah! Pray for those who have their hair cut short as well. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) again said: O Allah! Forgive those who have their heads shaved. The fourth time, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also included those who have their hair cut short in his supplication.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the presence of the Prophet and said, "O Messenger of Allah! At what time is giving charity most rewarding?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By your father! You will surely get its answer. The best charity is that which you give while you are healthy, desiring wealth, fearing poverty, and hoping to live longer. Do not delay charity until the soul reaches the throat, and then you begin to say, 'Give this much to so-and-so and that much to so-and-so,' while it has already become the property of so-and-so (the heirs)."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) was sitting in the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when suddenly his gaze fell upon the sky and he saw that an angel was descending. He said to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "This angel, since the time he was created until now, has never descended to the earth before this moment." When he descended, he said, "O Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), your Lord has sent me to you with this message: He will grant you prophethood by making you an angel, or grant you messengership by making you His servant?" Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) submitted, "O Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), adopt humility before your Lord." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "No, rather grant me messengership by making me a servant."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The Day of Judgment will not be established until the sun rises from the west. When the sun rises from the west and people see it, they will believe in Allah, but at that time, the faith of any person will not benefit him who had not believed before or had not earned any good through his faith.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Protect yourselves from fasting continuously with only one pre-dawn meal. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) submitted: O Messenger of Allah! You fast continuously in this manner. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In this matter, you are not like me. I spend the night in such a state that my Lord Himself feeds and gives me drink. Therefore, you should only take on as much practice as you have the strength to bear.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever asks people for money in order to accumulate wealth (so that the amount of money he has increases), let him remember that he is asking for embers; now whether he asks for a little or a lot.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), after saying the opening Takbeer (Takbeer-e-Tahreema), used to remain silent for a short while between the Takbeer and the recitation. Once, I submitted in the presence of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "May my parents be sacrificed for you, what do you recite during the silence between the Takbeer and the recitation?" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "During that time, I say this supplication: O Allah, create such a distance between me and my sins as You have made between the East and the West. O Allah, purify me from sins as a white garment is cleansed from dirt. O Allah, wash away my sins with water, snow, and hail."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The first group to enter Paradise will have faces as bright as the full moon of the fourteenth night. The group that enters after them will be like the brightest star in the sky. These people will neither urinate nor defecate, nor will they spit or blow their noses. Their combs will be of gold. The fragrance of musk will emanate from their sweat. Aloeswood will be burning in their censers. Their wives will be large-eyed houris. All of their manners will be like those of a single person. They will all be in the form and stature of their father, Hazrat Adam (peace be upon him), sixty cubits tall.
