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 people of Yemen have come to you; these people are soft-hearted, and faith, wisdom, and jurisprudence are very excellent among the people of Yemen.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he never saw anyone more handsome than the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); it seemed as if the sun was shining on his (peace be upon him) forehead. And he never saw anyone faster than the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); it seemed as if the earth was being folded up for him. We would exert ourselves greatly to walk with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but no sign of exertion would be seen on the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever becomes a guest with a people but remains deprived till morning, then to the extent of hospitality, he may take something from anyone and eat it, and there will be no sin upon him.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade two types of buying and selling and two types of clothing. As for clothing, it is that a person sits wrapped in a single garment with nothing covering his private parts at all, and that a person wraps himself in his lower garment while praying. And he forbade two types of sales: (1) Mulamasa, that is, the buyer says, "You throw something towards me or I throw something towards you," and (2) the sale by throwing a stone.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that when a funeral was brought to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), he would first ask, "Does this person have any debt?" If the people said, "Yes," the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would ask, "Has he left anything to repay it?" If the people said, "Yes!" then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would lead the funeral prayer for him. But if they replied in the negative, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say, "You should offer the funeral prayer of your companion yourselves."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the noble companions (may Allah be pleased with them) were carrying bricks for the construction of the mosque. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was also participating with them in this work. Meanwhile, I happened to meet the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and saw that he had placed a brick on his stomach. I thought perhaps he was having difficulty carrying it, so I said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), please give it to me." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Abu Hurairah, take another brick, for the real life is the life of the Hereafter."
