It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: "The real good is the good of the Hereafter," or he would say: "O Allah! There is no good except the good of the Hereafter, so reform the Ansar and the Muhajireen."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty says, "I am as My servant thinks of Me, and I am with him when he calls upon Me."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once a man from the People of the Book came to the court of the Prophet and, greeting the Prophet (peace be upon him), said, "As-Saam Alaikum." Hearing this, Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! Shall I not strike off his neck?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "No, but when the People of the Book greet you, you should only reply with 'Wa Alaikum.'"

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was walking with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he was wearing a Najrani cloak with thick borders. On the way, a Bedouin met us and he pulled the cloak of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) so hard that it tore and its marks appeared on the blessed neck of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The only change that appeared in the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was that he ordered something to be given to him, and it was given to him.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent his maternal uncle Hazrat Haram (may Allah be pleased with him)—who was the brother of Hazrat Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her)—with those seventy companions (may Allah be pleased with them) who were martyred at the incident of Bi’r Ma‘unah. At that time, the leader of the polytheists was ‘Amir bin Tufayl. He once came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said,“Accept one of three things regarding me: either the city dwellers be with you and the villagers be with me, or I be appointed as your successor after you, otherwise I will fight you with a thousand red and yellow horses and a thousand red and yellow camels from Banu Ghatafan.”Later, someone wounded him with a spear in the house of a woman from a certain tribe, and he began to say,“I have gotten a boil in the house of such-and-such tribe’s woman, like the one that appears in a camel. Bring me my horse.”He mounted the horse but did not get to dismount from its back; he died on the way.

Hazrat Haram (may Allah be pleased with him) set out with two men, one of whom belonged to Banu Umayyah and the other was lame. He said to both of them,“Stay close to me until I return. If you find me safe, that is very good; otherwise, if they kill me, you will be near me, and go inform the rest of the companions.”Saying this, Hazrat Haram (may Allah be pleased with him) proceeded. Upon reaching the relevant tribe, he said,“Do I have permission to convey the message of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to you?”They granted permission. Hazrat Haram (may Allah be pleased with him) began to mention the message before them, and the enemies signaled to a man from behind, who came from behind and thrust a spear through him so that it passed through his body. Hazrat Haram (may Allah be pleased with him) fell, saying,“Allahu Akbar! By the Lord of the Ka‘bah, I have succeeded!”Then they martyred all the companions (may Allah be pleased with them), except the lame man, who survived because he had climbed to the top of a mountain.

In this context, the following revelation was sent down—“which was recited earlier and was later abrogated”—that,“Convey this message to our people: We have met our Lord, and He is pleased with us and has made us pleased.”Meanwhile, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) continued to supplicate against the tribes of Ri‘l, Dhakwan, Banu Lihyan, and ‘Usayyah—“who had disobeyed Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)”—for forty days.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade making nabidh by mixing unripe and ripe dates together.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If you knew what I know, you would laugh little and weep much.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A person remains on goodness as long as he does not act hastily. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What is meant by hastiness?" He replied: That a servant begins to say, "I have prayed to my Lord so much, but He has not accepted my prayer."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not deliver any sermon to us without saying that he has no faith who is not trustworthy, and he has no religion who does not keep his promises.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the mother of Hazrat Harithah (may Allah be pleased with him) presented herself in the court of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! If he is in Paradise, then I will be patient, otherwise I will weep much." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "O Umm Harithah! Paradise is not just one; there are many Paradises, and Harithah is in the Paradise of Firdaus among them."
