Then he said, ‘God accept those deeds which were performed purely for His sake and which were meant to seek His pleasure.’ (Abu Dawud and An-Nasa’I on the authority of Abu Umamah)

According to ‘Amr ibn al-‘As, the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) sent word to him to come clad in armour and bearing arms. ‘When I came into his presence, he was performing his ablutions.’ The Prophet (SAW) said to me, ‘O Amr, I am sending you on a mission. God will bring you back safe. And will reward you with spoils.’ I said, ‘O Prophet, I did not migrate for the spoils. It was for the sake of God and His Messenger.’ The Prophet (SAW) replied, ‘The best wealth for a good man is to possess is that which has been lawfully acquired.’ (Ahmad ibn Hanbal)

19. ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab wrote to his governors that the most important thing of all to him was prayer (salat). A man who prayed regularly safeguarded his faith. And a man who was found wanting in his prayers would be found wanting even more in other matters. (mishkat al-Masabih).

20. A salat offered in congregation is 27 times more worthy of reward than the salat offered alone. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim on the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar).

21. Anywhere that three Muslims reside, the prayer must be offered in congregation, otherwise Satan will overpower them. Adhere, therefore, to congregational prayer, lest the wolf eat up the goat which strays away from the herd. (Abu Dawud, on the authority of Abu’d-Darda).

22. When you lead the prayer, you should make it short because, among those offering salat there may be some who are infirm, sick and old. But when you offer individual prayers, you may lengthen them as much as you wish. (Al-Bukhari on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

23. When I stand for salat, I want to offer a long prayer, but I shorten it when I hear a child’s cry, because I do not want to cause anxiety to the mother. (Al-Bukhari on the authority of Abu Qatadah).

24. Jabir ibn Samurah related how he used to offer Friday prayers with the Prophet. He said that the latter’s prayer, as well as his sermon were moderate in length. (Al-Muslim)

25. Everything has a cleansing agent. And fasting is the cleansing agent for the body. Fasting is more a matter of patience than of anything else. (Ibn Majah on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

28. The man who keeps a fast in full faith, and for reward in the world hereafter, will be forgiven his past sins. And the man who prays in the night during Ramadan with faith and for reward in the world hereafter, will be forgiven all his past sins. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim, on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

32. Partake of sahur (food taken a little before dawn during Ramadan), for there is a blessing in it. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim and on the authority of Anas ibn Malik).

33. Abdullah ibn al-‘Abbas reported that the Prophet (SAW) made alams-giving on Id’-ul-Fitr an obligatory act. As well as providing food for the poor, it was meant to atone for any absurdity or immodesty that may have been committed during fasting in the month of Ramadan. (Hadith Abu Dawud).

34. When you pay zakat (alms), you have done your duty, as it is obligatory. But a person who amasses unlawful wealth, and then makes gifts to the poor from it will have no spiritual reward for so doing. On the contrary, he will carry the burden of it with him into the next world. (Ibn Majah on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

The owner of such land as is irrigated by other methods will pay half this amount. (Al-Bukhari, on the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn Al-‘Abbas).

37. If a person to whom God has given wealth does not give zakat (alms), he will find that, on the Day of Judgment, his wealth turns into a poisonous snake with two black spots on its head. It will be like a yoke around his neck. Then it will seize him by the jaws and declare, ‘I am your wealth, I am your treasure.’ (Al-Bukhari, on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

38. A believer, who feeds another of the faithful who is hungry, will be fed on the fruits of Paradise by God on the Day of Judgment. And a believer, who servers water to another who is thirsty, will have thirst slaked from the sealed drinks by God on the Day of Judgment.

39. Abu Dharr al-Ghifari relates that he came to the Prophet, who was sitting in the shade of the Kabah. When he saw me he said, ‘They stand to lose.’ I said, ‘May my parents ransom you. To whom do you refer.?’ ‘To Those with an excuse of riches.’ He replied, ‘who just squander their wealth, heedless of the fact that they can be saved only if they spent generously for a good cause. And there are very few wealthy men of that ilk.’ (Al-Bukhari and Muslim).

40. Giving alms to the poor is a single good deed, but giving alms to a poor relative has the double virtue of giving alms and at the same time, treating one’s own relative well. (An-Nasa’I and At-Tirmidhi on the authority of Salman ibn ‘Amir).

Asked which deed inspired the greatest respect, the Prophet (SAW) replied, ‘To believe in Allah and His Messenger.” When asked what ranked next in order of merit, he said,’ To perform jihad, for the sake of Allah.’ Asked what came after that, he replied hajj mabrur, that is, performing pilgrimage while remaining free from sin. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim, on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

43. A man who decides to perform Hajj should act with promptness, for he may fall sick, or his mount may get lost, or a need may arise that becomes an obstacle. (Ibn Majah, on the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn Al-‘Abbas).

44. God’s blessings are for everyone, but a strong believer is better than a weak one. Wish for things which are beneficial to you, and in this, seek God’s help. Do not lose heart. If you are visited by misfortune, do not say, ‘If I had done this or that, it could have been averted. ‘ Because it opens the door to Satan. (Ibn Majah on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

45. Young man, (the Prophet said to 'Abdullah ibn al-'Abbas) hear some words of advice; Be mindful of God and God will protect you. Be mindful of God and you will find Him before you.

The Prophet (SAW), who was holding a miswak (a twig for cleaning the teeth) in his hand, said to the maid servant, ‘If I had no fear of retribution on Judgment Day, I would have tapped you with this twig.’ (Al-Adab al-Mufrad by Imam al Bukhari).

47. On the Day of Judgment, from amongst all those destined for Hell, a particular man, the richest man in the world, will be brought forth and cast into Hell for a moment. Then he will be taken out and will be asked, ‘O son of Adam, have you ever known the good things of life? Have you ever seen comfortable days?’ And he will reply, ‘By God, O Lord, never.’ Then from amongst all those destined for Paradise, one who has suffered the most in the world will be brought forth and will be allowed to enter Paradise for a moment. Then he will be taken out and asked, ‘O son of Adam, have you ever seen suffering? Have you ever experienced hardship in your life?’ He will reply, ‘By God, no, I have never suffered, I have never undergone hardship.’ (Hadith of Muslim, on the authority of Anas ibn Malik) (That is, just one moment in hell would suffice to make an evil person forget all the enjoyment he may have had in life, while the mere sight of Paradise would be enough to make a righteous man forget all the suffering he may have experienced in the life of this world).

That is what the earth’s account will be.’ (At-Tirmidhi)

56. Following the rule of abstinence from worldly things does not mean that what is normally permitted becomes prohibited or that wealth should be allowed to go to waste. On the contrary, such abstinence means that you should place greater reliance on what God intends for you than on what you have in hand yourself.

82. A believer is a mirror to another believer. A believer is a brother to another believer. He saves from losses. He safeguards his interests in his absence. (Abu Dawud, on the authority of Abu Hurairah).

94. Do not marry women for their beauty. It is possible that their beauty may destroy them. Do not marry them for their wealth. It is possible that their wealth may make them rebellious.
