O Creator of the heavens and the earth! Knower of the unseen and the seen! I make a covenant with You in this worldly life that I bear witness there is no deity except You, You are alone, You have no partner, and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is Your servant and Messenger. If You leave me to myself, then You have brought me close to evil and far from good. I rely only on Your mercy, so keep this covenant with You and fulfill it for me on the Day of Resurrection. Surely, You do not break Your promise.' Then Allah Almighty will say to His angels on the Day of Resurrection: 'My servant has made a covenant with Me, so fulfill it.' Thus, he will be admitted into Paradise." Suhail says: I told Qasim bin Abdur Rahman that 'Awn narrated this hadith to me, so he said: In our house, every girl recites this supplication in her seclusion."

When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) heard us saying this, he said: "Allah Himself is the embodiment of peace, so when any one of you sits in Tashahhud, he should say: «التَّحِيَّاتُ لِلّٰهِ وَالصَّلَوَاتُ وَالطَّيِّبَاتُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ وَرَحْمَةُ اللّٰهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى عِبَادِ اللّٰهِ الصَّالِحِينَ» 'All verbal, physical, and bodily acts of worship are for Allah alone. O Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! May Allah's peace, mercy, and blessings descend upon you. Peace be upon us and upon the righteous servants of Allah.' When he says this phrase, it will include every righteous servant in the heavens and the earth. «أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ» 'I bear witness that there is no deity except Allah, and that Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is His servant and His Messenger.'

O Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! Peace be upon you, and may Allah’s mercy and blessings descend upon you. Peace be upon us and upon the righteous servants of Allah.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard her supplication and said: "You have asked Allah for a fixed term, a few numbered days, and apportioned sustenance. None of these things can reach you before their appointed time, nor can they be delayed beyond their fixed time. If you had asked Allah to protect you from the punishment of Hell and the punishment of the grave, that would have been better and more virtuous." The narrator says that a man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Are pigs and monkeys the transformed forms of humans?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whichever people Allah transformed, their progeny was never left behind, whereas monkeys and pigs have existed from before." The narrator says that a man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) whether monkeys are the transformed forms of humans. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whichever people Allah transformed, their progeny was never left behind, whereas monkeys and pigs have existed from before."
