It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed (may Allah be pleased with him) that once a person heard another reciting Surah Ikhlas repeatedly throughout the night. In the morning, he went to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned this matter, thinking that it was a small thing. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "By Him in Whose hand is my soul, it is equal to one third of the Qur'an."

Qaza’ah (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Once I came to Abu Sa’id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), and at that time many people were gathered around him. When the people dispersed, I said to him,“The questions these people were asking you, I will not ask you those. I want to ask you about the prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).”He replied,“There is no benefit for you in that.”Eventually, after some insistence and repetition, he said,“When the Zuhr prayer was established, one of us would go towards Baqi’, relieve himself, come home, perform ablution, and then return to the mosque, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would still be in the first rak’ah.”Then I asked him about zakat. He said (either attributing it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or without attributing it):“On two hundred dirhams, five dirhams are obligatory, and from forty to one hundred and twenty goats, one goat is obligatory. When there is even one more than one hundred and twenty, up to two hundred, two goats are obligatory. Then if there is even one more, up to three hundred, three goats are obligatory. Then for every hundred, one goat will be obligatory. Similarly, on five camels, one goat is obligatory; on ten, two; on fifteen, three; on twenty, four; and from twenty-five to thirty-five, one bint makhad; from thirty-six to forty-five, one bint labun; from forty-six to sixty, one hiqqah; from sixty-one to seventy-five, one jadh’ah; from seventy-six to ninety, two bint labun; from ninety-one to one hundred and twenty, two hiqqahs will be obligatory. After that, for every fifty, one hiqqah, and for every forty, one bint labun will be obligatory.”Then I asked him about fasting. He said,“Once we traveled to Makkah with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while fasting. We camped at one place, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, ‘You have come close to the enemy, and in this state, breaking the fast will give you more strength.’ This was a concession, so some of us kept our fast and some broke it. Then when we camped at the next place, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, ‘Now you are in front of the enemy, and in this state, breaking the fast will give you more strength, so break your fast.’ This was a command, so we broke our fast. Then he said that after that, once during a journey, we also saw ourselves with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a state of fasting.”

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The obligation of ghusl (ritual bath) is due to the emission of the water of life (semen).

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Avoid sitting on the roads." The companions said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! We cannot do without it; in this way, we chat with each other." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "If you cannot avoid sitting, then fulfill the rights of the road." The companions asked, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What are the rights of the road?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Lower your gaze, avoid causing harm, return greetings, enjoin good, and forbid evil."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying: Two men should not converse with each other in such a manner while they are relieving themselves and their private parts are exposed, because Allah is displeased with such an act.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Musk is the best of all fragrances.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that sometimes the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would perform the Duha (forenoon) prayer so regularly that we would think he would never abandon it, and sometimes he would abandon it so regularly that we would think he would never perform this prayer.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The Day of Judgment will not be established until the world is filled with oppression and injustice. Then a man from my Ahl al-Bayt will emerge, and he will fill the earth with justice and fairness just as it was previously filled with oppression and injustice.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Where there are three people, at the time of prayer one of them should become the imam, and the one most deserving of leading them is the one who knows the most Qur'an among them.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of Eid al-Fitr, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would leave his house (for the Eid prayer ground) and lead the people in two units of prayer. Then he would move forward and face the people, while they remained seated, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would encourage them to give charity three times. Most of the women on this occasion would give earrings and rings, etc., as charity. Then, if the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had any need to mention regarding the army, he would state it; otherwise, he would return.
