7372. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما: When the Prophet ﷺ sent Mu'ādīh to Yemen, he said to him, "You are going to a nation from the people of the Scripture, so let the first thing to which you will invite them is to testify the Tauhīd Allāh [i.e., Lā ilāha illallāh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh)]. If they accept that, tell them that Allāh has enjoined on them, five compulsory congregational Ṣalāt (prayers) to be offered in one day and one night (24 hours). And if they offer their Ṣalāt (prayer), tell them that Allāh has enjoined on them Zakāt of their properties; and it is to be taken from the rich among them and given to the poor among them. And if they agree to that, then take from them Zakāt, but avoid the best property of the people." [See Hadīth No. 1395 and 4347] (1) (Book 97) (Islamic Monotheism): See the glossary.

(V.112:1) And he recited it repeatedly. When it was morning, he went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him about that as if he considered that the recitation of that Sūrah by itself was not enough.

(V.112:1) When they returned (from the battle), they mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ. He said (to them), "Ask him why he does so." They asked him and he said, "I do so because it describes the qualities of the Most Gracious and I love to recite it (in my Ṣalāt)." The Prophet ﷺ said (to them), "Tell him that Allāh loves him."

7377. Narrated Usāma bin Zaid رضي الله عنه: We were with the Prophet ﷺ when suddenly there came to him a messenger from one of his daughters who was asking him to come and see her son who was dying. The Prophet ﷺ said (to the messenger), "Go back and tell her that : Whatever Allāh takes is for Him, and whatever He gives is for Him, and everything with Him has a limited fixed term (in this world). So order her to be patient and hope for Allāh's Reward." But she sent the messenger to the Prophet ﷺ again, swearing that he should come to her. So the Prophet ﷺ got up, and so did Sa'd bin 'Ubāda and Mu'ād bin Jabal (and went to her). When the child was brought to the Prophet ﷺ, his breath was disturbed in his chest as if it were in a water-skin. On that the eyes of the Prophet ﷺ became flooded with tears, whereupon Sa'd said to him, "O Allāh's Messenger! What is this?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "This is mercy which Allāh has lodged in the heart of His slaves, and Allāh is Merciful only to those of His slaves who are merciful (to others)." [See Ḥadīth No.1284]

Say, ‘Lā hawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh’, for it is a treasure from one of the treasures of Paradise.” Or said, “Shall I tell you of it?” (See H. 2992, Vol. 4)

He used to say, "If anyone of you intends to do something, he should offer a two Rak'ā Ṣalāt (prayer) other than the compulsory Ṣalāt (prayer), and after finishing it, he should say: 'O Allāh! I consult You, for You have all knowledge, and appeal to You to support me with Your Power, and ask for Your Bounty, for You are Able to do things while I am not, and You know while I do not; and You are the All-Knower of the Unseen. O Allāh! If You know that this matter (name your matter) is good for me both at present and in the future, (or in my religion), in my this life and in the Hereafter, then fulfil it for me and make it easy for me, and then bestow Your Blessings on me in that matter. O Allāh! If You know that this matter is not good for me in my religion, in my this life and Hereafter (or at present, or in the future), then divert me from it and choose for me what is good wherever it may be, and make me pleased with it.'"

Don’t you see the people (i.e., their condition)? Allāh created you with His Own Hands and ordered His angels to prostrate before you, and taught you the names of all the things. Please intercede for us with our Lord so that He may relieve us from this place of ours.’ Ādam will say, ‘I am not fit for this undertaking’ and he will mention to them the mistakes he had committed, and add, ‘But you’d better go to Nūh (Noah) as he was the first Messenger sent by Allāh to the people of the earth.’ They will go to Nūh (Noah) who will reply, ‘I am not fit for this undertaking,’ and he will mention the mistake which he made, and add, ‘But you’d better go to Ibrāhīm (Abraham), Khalīl(1) Ar-Rahmān.’ They will go to (Prophet) Ibrāhīm who will reply, ‘I am not fit for this undertaking,’ and he will mention to them the mistakes he made, and add, 'But you'd better go to (Prophet) Mūsā (Moses), a slave (of Allāh) whom Allāh gave the Taurāt (Torah) and to whom He spoke directly.' They will go to (Prophet) Mūsā who will reply, 'I am not fit for this undertaking,' and he will mention to them the mistakes he made, and add, 'You'd better go to (Prophet) 'Īsā (Jesus), Allāh's slave and His Messenger and His Word ("Be!" and he was) and a soul(1) created by Him.' They will go to Prophet 'Īsā who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking, but you'd better go to (Prophet) Muḥammad (ﷺ) whose sins of the past and the future had been forgiven (by Allāh).' So they will come to me and I will ask the permission of my Lord (Allāh نعالى), and I will be permitted (to present myself) before Him. When I see my Lord, I will fall down in (prostration) before Him and He will leave me (in prostration) as long as He wishes, and then it will be said to me, 'O Muḥammad! Raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to; and ask, for you will be granted (your request); and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will then raise my head and praise my Lord with certain praises which He has taught me, and then I will intercede. Allāh will allow me to intercede (for a certain kind of people) and will fix a limit, whom I will admit into Paradise. I will come back again, and when I see my Lord (again), I will fall down in prostration before Him, and He will leave me (in prostration) as long as He wishes, and then He will say, 'O Muḥammad! Raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to; and ask, for you will be granted (your request); and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will then praise my Lord with certain praises which He has taught me, and then I will intercede. Allāh will allow me to intercede (for a certain kind of people) and will fix a limit, to whom I will admit into Paradise, I will return again, and when I see my Lord, I will fall down (in prostration) and He will leave me (in prostration) as long as He wishes, and then He will say, 'O Muḥammad! Raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to, and ask, for you will be granted (your request); and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will then praise my Lord with certain praises which He has taught me, and then I will intercede. Allāh will allow me to intercede (for a certain kind of people) and will fix a limit, to whom I will admit into Paradise. I will come back and say, 'O my Lord! None remains in Hell (Fire) but those whom the Qur'ān has imprisoned therein; and for whom eternity in Hell (Fire) has become inevitable.' The Prophet ﷺ added, "There will come out of Hell (Fire) everyone who says: 'Lā ilāha illallāh' (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh) and has in his heart good equal to the weight of a barley grain. Then there will come out of Hell (Fire) everyone who says: 'Lā ilaha illallāh'(1) and has in his heart good equal to the weight of a wheat grain. Then there will come out of Hell (Fire) everyone who says: 'Lā ilāha illallāh',(1) and has in his heart good equal to the weight of an atom (a smallest ant)."

7430. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "If somebody gives in charity something equal to a date from his honestly earned money — for nothing ascends to Allāh except good — then Allāh will take it in His Right (Hand) and bring it up for its owner as anyone of you brings up a baby horse, till it becomes like a mountain.” Abū Hurairah also said: The Prophet ﷺ said, “Nothing ascends to Allāh except good.”

Lā ilāha illallāhu Rabbus-samāwāti wa Rabbul-‘Arshil-Karīm” (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh, the All-Majestic, the Most Forebearing.

7432. Narrated Abū Sa‘īd, Al-Khudrī رضي الله عنه: When ‘Ali was in Yemen, he sent some gold in its ore form to the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ distributed it among Al-Aqra’ bin Hābis Al-Ḥanẓālī who belonged to Banī Mujāshī, ‘Uyaina bin Badr Al-Fazārī, ‘Alqama bin ‘Ulātha Al-‘Amīrī, who belonged to the Banī Kilāb tribe and Zaid Al-Khail Aṭ-Ṭā‘ī who belonged to Banī Nabhān. So the Quraish (emigrants) and the Anṣār became angry and said, “He gives to the chiefs of Najd and leaves us!” The Prophet ﷺ said, "I just wanted to attract and unite their hearts (make them firm in Islām)." Then there came a man with sunken eyes, bulging forehead, thick beard, fat raised cheeks, and clean-shaven head, and said, "O Muḥammad! Be afraid of Allāh!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Who would obey Allāh if I disobeyed Him? He (Allāh) trusts me over the people of the earth, but you do not trust me?" A man from the people (present then), who, I think, was Khālid bin Al-Walīd, asked for permission to kill him, but the Prophet ﷺ prevented him. When the man went away, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Out of the offspring of this man, there will be people who will recite the Qur'ān but it (the recitation or its meanings) will not go beyond their throats, and they will go out of Islām as an arrow goes out through the game, and they will kill the Muslims and leave the idolaters. Should I live till they appear, I would kill them as the killing of the nation of 'Ād." (See H. 3344, 4351)

7437. Narrated 'Aṭā' bin Yazid Al-Laithi: On the authority of Abū Hurairah: The people said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Shall we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do you have any difficulty in seeing the moon on a full moon night?" They said, "No, O Allāh's Messenger." He said, "Do you have any difficulty in seeing the sun when there are no clouds?" They said, "No, O Allāh's Messenger." He said, "So you will see Him, like that. Allāh will gather all the people on the Day of Resurrection, and say, 'Whoever worshipped something (in the world) should follow (that thing),' so, whoever worshipped the sun will follow the sun, and whoever worshipped the moon will follow the moon, and whoever used to worship certain (other false) deities, they will follow those deities. And there will remain only this nation (Muslims) along with its good people (or its hypocrites). (The subnarrator, Ibrāhīm is in doubt as to the exact word the Prophet ﷺ used). Allāh will come to them and say, 'I am your Lord.' They will (deny Him and) say, 'We will stay here till our Lord comes, for when our Lord comes, we will recognize Him.' So Allāh will come to them in His Appearance which they know, and will say, 'I am your Lord.' They will say, 'You are our Lord,' so they will follow Him. Then a bridge will be laid across Hell (Fire). I and my followers will be the first ones to go across it and none will speak on that Day except the Messengers. And the invocation of the Messengers on that Day will be, 'O Allāh, Save! Save!' In Hell (or over the bridge) there will be hooks like the thorns of As-Sa'dān (thorny plant)." (The Prophet ﷺ asked:)"Have you seen As-Sa'dān?" They replied, "Yes, O Allāh's Messenger!" He said, "So, those hooks look like the thorns of As-Sa'dān, but none knows how big they will be, except Allāh. Those hooks will snap the people away according to their deeds. Some of the people will stay in Hell (be destroyed) because of their (evil) deeds, and some will be cut or torn by the hooks (and fall into Hell) and some will be punished and then relieved. When Allāh will finish His Judgement among the people, He will take whomsoever He will out of Hell through His Mercy. He will then order the angels to take out of the Fire all those who used to worship none but Allāh, from among those whom Allāh wanted to be Merciful and those who testified (in the world) that Lā ilāha illallāh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh). The angels will recognize them in the Fire by the marks of prostration (on their foreheads), for the Fire will eat up (burn) all the human body except the mark caused by prostration; as Allāh has forbidden the Fire to eat the mark of prostration. They will come out of the (Hell) Fire completely burnt; and then the water of Al-Hayāt (life) will be poured over them and they will grow under it as does a seed that comes in the mud of the torrent. Then Allāh will finish the judgements among the people, and there will remain one man facing the (Hell) Fire and he will be the last person among the people of Hell to enter Paradise. He will say, 'O my Lord! Please turn my face away from the Fire because its air has hurt me and its severe heat has burnt me.' So he will invoke Allāh in the way Allāh will wish him to invoke, and then Allāh will say to him, 'If I grant you that, will you then ask for anything else?' He will reply, 'No, by Your Izzat (Power, Honour) I will not ask You for anything more.' He will give his Lord whatever promises and covenants Allāh will demand. So Allāh will turn his face away from Hell (Fire). When he will face Paradise and will see it, he will remain quiet for as long as Allāh will wish him to remain quiet, then he will say, 'O my Lord! Bring me near to the gate of Paradise.' Allāh will say to him, 'Didn't you give your promises and covenants that you would never ask for anything more than what you had been given? Woe on you, O Ādam's son! How treacherous you are!' He will say, 'O my Lord,' and will keep on invoking Allāh till He will say to him, 'If I give what you are asking, will you then ask for anything else?' He will reply, 'No, by Your Izzat (Honour Power), I will not ask for anything else.' Then he will give covenants and promises to Allāh and then Allāh will bring him near to the gate of Paradise. When he stands at the gate of Paradise, Paradise will be opened and spread before him, and he will see its splendour and pleasures whereupon he will remain quiet as long as Allāh will wish him to remain quiet, and then he will say, 'O my Lord! Admit me into Paradise.' Allāh will say, 'Didn't you give your covenants and promises that you would not ask for anything more than what you had already been given?' Allāh will say, 'Woe on you, O Ādam's son! How treacherous you are!' The man will say, 'O my Lord! Do not make me the most miserable of Your creation,' and he will keep on invoking Allāh till Allāh will laugh because of his sayings, and when Allāh will laugh because of him, He will say to him, 'Enter Paradise,' and when he will enter it, Allāh will say to him, 'Wish (for anything)'. So he will ask his Lord, and he will wish for a great number of things, for Allāh Himself will remind him to wish for certain things by saying, 'Wish for' so-and-so.' When there is nothing more to wish for, Allāh will say, 'This is for you, and its equal (is for you) as well.'

7437 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ العَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَّ النَّاسَ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَلْ نَرَى رَبَّنَا يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «هَلْ تُضَارُّونَ فِي القَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ البَدْرِ؟»، قَالُوا: لاَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «فَهَلْ تُضَارُّونَ فِي الشَّمْسِ، لَيْسَ دُونَهَا سَحَابٌ؟»، قَالُوا: لاَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «فَإِنَّكُمْ تَرَوْنَهُ كَذَلِكَ»، يَجْمَعُ اللَّهُ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ، فَيَقُولُ: مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ شَيْئًا فَلْيَتْبَعْهُ، فَيَتْبَعُ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ الشَّمْسَ الشَّمْسَ، وَيَتْبَعُ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ القَمَرَ القَمَرَ، وَيَتْبَعُ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ الطَّوَاغِيتَ الطَّوَاغِيتَ، وَتَبْقَى هَذِهِ الأُمَّةُ فِيهَا شَافِعُوهَا أَوْ مُنَافِقُوهَا - شَكَّ إِبْرَاهِيمُ -، فَيَأْتِيهِمُ اللَّهُ فَيَقُولُ: أَنَا رَبُّكُمْ، فَيَقُولُونَ: هَذَا مَكَانُنَا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَنَا رَبُّنَا، فَإِذَا جَاءَنَا رَبُّنَا عَرَفْنَاهُ، فَيَأْتِيهِمُ اللَّهُ فِي صُورَتِهِ الَّتِي يَعْرِفُونَ، فَيَقُولُ: أَنَا رَبُّكُمْ، فَيَقُولُونَ: أَنْتَ رَبُّنَا فَيَتْبَعُونَهُ، وَيُضْرَبُ الصِّرَاطُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَيْ جَهَنَّمَ، فَأَكُونُ أَنَا وَأُمَّتِي أَوَّلَ مَنْ يُجِيزُهَا، وَلاَ يَتَكَلَّمُ يَوْمَئِذٍ إِلَّا الرُّسُلُ، وَدَعْوَى الرُّسُلِ يَوْمَئِذٍ: اللَّهُمَّ سَلِّمْ سَلِّمْ، وَفِي جَهَنَّمَ كَلاَلِيبُ مِثْلُ شَوْكِ السَّعْدَانِ، هَلْ رَأَيْتُمِ السَّعْدَانَ؟ "، قَالُوا: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: " فَإِنَّهَا مِثْلُ شَوْكِ السَّعْدَانِ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لاَ يَعْلَمُ مَا قَدْرُ عِظَمِهَا إِلَّا اللَّهُ، تَخْطَفُ النَّاسَ بِأَعْمَالِهِمْ، فَمِنْهُمُ المُوبَقُ بَقِيَ بِعَمَلِهِ - أَوِ المُوثَقُ بِعَمَلِهِ -، وَمِنْهُمُ المُخَرْدَلُ، أَوِ المُجَازَى، أَوْ نَحْوُهُ، ثُمَّ يَتَجَلَّى، حَتَّى إِذَا فَرَغَ اللَّهُ مِنَ القَضَاءِ بَيْنَ العِبَادِ، وَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُخْرِجَ بِرَحْمَتِهِ مَنْ أَرَادَ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ، أَمَرَ المَلاَئِكَةَ أَنْ يُخْرِجُوا مِنَ النَّارِ، مَنْ كَانَ لاَ يُشْرِكُ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا، مِمَّنْ أَرَادَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَرْحَمَهُ، مِمَّنْ يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، فَيَعْرِفُونَهُمْ فِي النَّارِ بِأَثَرِ السُّجُودِ، تَأْكُلُ النَّارُ ابْنَ آدَمَ إِلَّا أَثَرَ السُّجُودِ، حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّارِ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ أَثَرَ السُّجُودِ، فَيَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ النَّارِ، قَدْ امْتُحِشُوا، فَيُصَبُّ عَلَيْهِمْ مَاءُ الحَيَاةِ، فَيَنْبُتُونَ تَحْتَهُ كَمَا تَنْبُتُ الحِبَّةُ فِي حَمِيلِ السَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ يَفْرُغُ اللَّهُ مِنَ القَضَاءِ بَيْنَ العِبَادِ، وَيَبْقَى رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ مُقْبِلٌ بِوَجْهِهِ عَلَى النَّارِ، هُوَ آخِرُ أَهْلِ النَّارِ دُخُولًا الجَنَّةَ، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ اصْرِفْ وَجْهِي عَنِ النَّارِ، فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ قَشَبَنِي رِيحُهَا، وَأَحْرَقَنِي ذَكَاؤُهَا، فَيَدْعُو اللَّهَ بِمَا شَاءَ أَنْ يَدْعُوَهُ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ: هَلْ عَسَيْتَ إِنْ أَعْطَيْتُكَ ذَلِكَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهُ؟ ، فَيَقُولُ: لاَ، وَعِزَّتِكَ لاَ أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهُ، وَيُعْطِي رَبَّهُ مِنْ عُهُودٍ وَمَوَاثِيقَ مَا شَاءَ، فَيَصْرِفُ اللَّهُ وَجْهَهُ عَنِ النَّارِ، فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَ عَلَى الجَنَّةِ وَرَآهَا سَكَتَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَسْكُتَ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ، قَدِّمْنِي إِلَى بَابِ الجَنَّةِ، فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ لَهُ: أَلَسْتَ قَدْ أَعْطَيْتَ عُهُودَكَ وَمَوَاثِيقَكَ أَنْ لاَ تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَ الَّذِي أُعْطِيتَ أَبَدًا؟ وَيْلَكَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَا أَغْدَرَكَ، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ، وَيَدْعُو اللَّهَ، حَتَّى يَقُولَ: هَلْ عَسَيْتَ إِنْ أُعْطِيتَ ذَلِكَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَ غَيْرَهُ؟ فَيَقُولُ: لاَ وَعِزَّتِكَ، لاَ أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهُ، وَيُعْطِي مَا شَاءَ مِنْ عُهُودٍ وَمَوَاثِيقَ، فَيُقَدِّمُهُ إِلَى بَابِ الجَنَّةِ، فَإِذَا قَامَ إِلَى بَابِ الجَنَّةِ، انْفَهَقَتْ لَهُ الجَنَّةُ، فَرَأَى مَا فِيهَا مِنَ الحَبْرَةِ وَالسُّرُورِ، فَيَسْكُتُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَسْكُتَ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ، أَدْخِلْنِي الجَنَّةَ، فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ: أَلَسْتَ قَدْ أَعْطَيْتَ عُهُودَكَ وَمَوَاثِيقَكَ أَنْ لاَ تَسْأَلَ غَيْرَ مَا أُعْطِيتَ؟ فَيَقُولُ: وَيْلَكَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَا أَغْدَرَكَ، فَيَقُولُ: أَيْ رَبِّ، لاَ أَكُونَنَّ أَشْقَى خَلْقِكَ فَلاَ يَزَالُ يَدْعُو حَتَّى يَضْحَكَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ، فَإِذَا ضَحِكَ مِنْهُ، قَالَ لَهُ: ادْخُلِ الجَنَّةَ، فَإِذَا دَخَلَهَا قَالَ اللَّهُ لَهُ: تَمَنَّهْ، فَسَأَلَ رَبَّهُ وَتَمَنَّى، حَتَّى إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَيُذَكِّرُهُ، يَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا، حَتَّى انْقَطَعَتْ بِهِ الأَمَانِيُّ، قَالَ: اللَّهُ ذَلِكَ لَكَ، وَمِثْلُهُ مَعَهُ "،

7438. 'Aṭā' bin Yazīd added: Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī who was present with Abū Hurairah, did not deny whatever the latter said, but when Abū Hurairah said that Allāh had said, "That is for you and its equal as well," Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī said, "And ten times as much, O Abū Hurairah!" Abū Hurairah said, "I do not remember, except his saying, 'That is for you and its equal as well.'" Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī then said, "I testify that I remember the Prophet ﷺ saying, 'That is for you, and ten times as much.'" Abū Hurairah then added, "That man will be the last person of the people of Paradise to enter Paradise." [See Vol. 8, Hadīth No. 6573]

7439. Narrated Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī رضي الله عنه: We said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Shall we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?" He said, "Do you have any difficulty in seeing the sun and the moon when the sky is clear?" We said, "No." He said, "So you will have no difficulty in seeing your Lord on that Day as you have no difficulty in seeing the sun and the moon (in a clear sky)." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Somebody will then announce, 'Let every nation follow what they used to worship.' So the people of the Cross will go with their Cross, and the idolaters (will go) with their idols, and the worshippers of every god (false deities) (will go) with their god, till there remain those who used to worship Allāh, from the righteous pious ones and the mischievous evil ones, and some of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians). Then Hell will be presented before them as if it were a mirage. Then it will be said to the Jews, 'What did you use to worship?' They will reply, 'We used to worship Uzair (Ezra), the son of Allāh.' It will be said to them, 'You are liars, for Allāh has neither a wife nor a son. What do you want (now)?' They will reply, 'We want You to provide us with water.' Then it will be said to them 'Drink,' and they will fall down in Hell (instead). Then it will be said to the Christians, 'What did you use to worship?' They will reply, 'We used to worship Masih (Messiah), the son of Allāh.' It will be said, 'You are liars, for Allāh has neither a wife nor a son. What do you want (now)?' They will say, 'We want You to provide us with water.' It will be said to them, 'Drink,' and they will fall down in Hell (instead), till there remain only those who used to worship Allāh (Alone), the righteous pious ones and the mischievous evil ones. It will be said to them, 'What keeps you here when all the people have gone?' They will say, 'We left them (in the world) when we were in greater need of them than we are today, we heard the call of one proclaiming: Let every nation follow what they used to worship,' and now we are waiting for our Lord. Then the All-Mighty will come to them in a shape other than the one which they saw the first time, and He will say, 'I am your Lord,' and they will say, 'You are our Lord.' And none will speak to Him then but the Prophets, and then it will be said to them, 'Do you know any sign by which you can recognize Him?' They will say, 'The Shin,' and so Allāh will then uncover His Shin, whereupon, every believer will prostrate before Him and there will remain those who used to prostrate before Him just for showing off and for gaining good reputation. One of such will try to prostrate but his back (bones) will become a single (vertebra) bone (like one piece of a wood and they will not be able to prostrate). Then the bridge will be brought and laid across Hell.” We, the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! What is the bridge?” He said, “It is a slippery (bridge) on which there are clamps and (hooks like) a thorny seed that is wide at one side and narrow at the other and has thorns with bent ends. Such a thorny seed is found in Najd and is called As-Sa’dān. Some of the believers will cross the bridge as quickly as the wink of an eye, some others as quick as lightning, or a strong wind, or fast horses or she-camels. So, some will be safe without any harm; some will be safe after receiving some scratches, and some will fall down into Hell (Fire). The last person will cross as if being dragged (over the bridge).” The Prophet ﷺ added, “You (Muslims) cannot be more pressing in claiming from me a right that has been clearly proved to be yours than the believers in interceding with All-Mighty for their (Muslim) brothers on that Day, when they see themselves safe. They will say, ‘O Allāh! (Save) our brothers (for they) used to offer Salāt (prayer) with us, observe Saum (fasting) with us and also do good deeds with us.’ Allāh will say, ‘Go and take out (of Hell) anyone in whose heart you find Faith equal to the weight of one (gold) Dīnār.’ Allāh will forbid the Fire to burn the faces of those sinners. They will go to them and find some of them in Hell (Fire) up to their feet, and some up to the middle of their legs. So they will take out those whom they will recognize and then they will return, and Allāh will say (to them), ‘Go and take out (of Hell) anyone in whose heart you find Faith equal to the weight of half Dīnār. They will take out whomsoever they will recognize and return, and then Allāh will say, 'Go and take out (of Hell) anyone in whose heart you find Faith equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant)'. And so they will take out all those whom they will recognize." Abū Sa'īd said: If you do not believe me then read the Holy Verse: "Surely! Allāh wrongs not even of the weight of an atom (or a small ant), but if there is any good (done), He doubles it..." (V.4:40) The Prophet ﷺ added, "Then the Prophets angels and the believers will intercede, and (last of all) the All-Mighty (Allāh) will say, 'Now remains My intercession. He will then hold a handful of the Fire from which He will take out some people whose bodies have been burnt, and they will be thrown into a river at the entrance of Paradise, called the Water of Life. They will grow on its banks, as a seed carried by the torrent grows. You have noticed how it grows beside a rock or beside a tree, and how the side facing the sun is usually green while the side facing the shade is white. Those people will come out (of the River of Life) like pearls, and they will have (golden) necklaces, and then they will enter Paradise whereupon the people of Paradise will say, 'These are the people emancipated by the Most Gracious. He has admitted them into Paradise, without (them) having done any good deed, and without sending forth any good (for themselves). Then it will be said to them, 'For you is what you have seen and its equivalent as well.'"

7440. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "The believers will be kept (waiting) on the Day of Resurrection so long that they will become worried and say, 'Let us ask somebody to intercede for us with our Lord so that He may relieve us from our place.' Then they will go to Ādam عليه السلام and say, 'You are Ādam, the father of the people. Allāh created you with His Own Hand and made you reside in His Paradise and ordered His angels to prostrate before you, and taught you the names of all things. Will you intercede for us with your Lord so that He may relieve us from this place of ours?' Ādam عليه السلام will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking.' He will mention his mistakes he had committed, i.e., his eating of the tree, though he had been forbidden to do so. He will add, 'Go to (Prophet) Noah, the first Prophet sent by Allāh to the people of the earth.' The people will go to Nūh (Noah) who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking.' He will mention his mistake which he had done, i.e., his asking his Lord without knowledge.' He will say (to them), 'Go to (Prophet) Ibrāhīm (Abraham), Khalīl Ar-Rahmān.(1) They will go to Ibrāhīm who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking.' He would mention three words by which he told a lie, and say (to them), 'Go to (Prophet) Mūsā (Moses), a slave whom Allāh gave the Taurāt (Torah) and to whom He spoke directly, and brought near Him, for conversation.' They will go to (Prophet) Mūsā (Moses) who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking.' He will mention his mistake he made, i.e., killing a person, and will say (to them), 'Go to (Prophet) 'Īsā (Jesus), Allāh's slave and His Messenger, and a soul(2) created by Him and His Word.' ('Be!' and he was.) They will go to Prophet 'Īsā who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking but you'd better go to (Prophet) : See the glossary.(2) (H.7440) See the word in the glossary. Muḥammad ﷺ the slave (of Allāh) whose all the past, present and future sins have been forgiven by Allāh.' So they will come to me, and I will ask my Lord's Permission to enter His House and then I will be permitted. When I will see Him, I will fall down in prostration before Him, and He will leave me (in prostration) as long as He will, and then He will say, 'O Muḥammad, lift up your head and speak, for you will be listened to, and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted, and ask (for anything) for it will be granted.' Then I will raise my head and glorify my Lord with certain praises which He has taught me. Allāh will put a limit for me (to intercede for a certain kind of people). I will take them out and make them enter Paradise." (Qatāda said: I heard Anas saying that), the Prophet ﷺ said, "I will go and take them out of Hell (Fire) and let them enter Paradise, and then I will return and ask my Lord for permission to enter His House and I will be permitted. When I will see Him, I will fall down in prostration before Him and He will leave me in prostration as long as He will let me (in that state), and then He will say, 'O Muḥammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to, and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted, and ask, your request will be granted.'" The Prophet ﷺ added, "So I will raise my head and glorify and praise Him as He has taught me. Then I will intercede and He will put a limit for me (to intercede for a certain kind of people). I will take them out and let them enter Paradise." (Qatāda added: I heard Anas saying that) the Prophet ﷺ said, "I will go and take them out of Hell (Fire) and let them enter Paradise, and I will return for the third time and will ask my Lord for permission to enter His House, and I will be allowed to enter. When I will see Him, I will fall down in prostration before Him, and will remain in prostration as long as He will, and then He will say, 'Raise your head, O Muhammad, and speak, for you will be listened to, and intercede for your intercession will be accepted, and ask, for your request will be granted.' So I will raise my head and praise Allāh as He has taught me and then I will intercede and He will put a limit for me (to intercede for a certain kind of people). I will take them out and let them enter Paradise." (Qatāda said: I heard Anas saying that) the Prophet ﷺ said, "So I will go and take them out of Hell (Fire) and let them enter Paradise, till none will remain in the (Hell) Fire except those whom the Qur'ān will imprison (i.e., those who are destined for eternal life in the Fire)." The narrator then recited the Verse: "...It may be that your Lord will raise you to Maqām Maḥmūd (a station of praise and glory (i.e., the honour of intercession on the Day of Resurrection)." (V.17:79) The narrator added: This is the Maqām Maḥmūd which Allāh has promised to your Prophet ﷺ. [See Hadīth No. 7410].

All the praises are for You; You are the Maintainer of the heavens and the earth. All the praises are for You; You are the Rabb (Lord) of the heavens and the earth and whatever is therein. All the praises are for You; You are the Light of the heavens and the earth and whatever is therein. You are the Truth, and Your Word is the Truth, and Your Promise is the Truth, and the Meeting with You is the Truth, and Paradise is the Truth, and the (Hell) Fire is the Truth. O Allāh! I submit myself to You, and believe in You, and I put my trust in You (solely depend upon you). And to You I complain of my opponents and with Your Evidence I argue. So please forgive the sins which I have done in the past or I will do in the future, and also those (sins) which I did in secret or in public, and that which You know better than I. None has the right to be worshipped but You." [See Hadith No. 7499].

7447. Narrated Abū Bakra: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Time has come back to its original state which it had when Allāh created the heavens and the earth,(1) the year is of twelve months, of which four are sacred; (and out of these four) three are in succession, namely, Dhul-Qa'da, Dhul-Hijja and Muharram, and (the fourth one) Rajab Muḍar which is between Jumād (Ath-Thānī) and Sha'bān." The Prophet ﷺ then asked us, "Which month is this?" We said, "Allāh and His Messenger know better." He kept quiet so long that we thought he might call it by another name. Then, he said, "Isn't it Dhul-Hijja?" We said, "Yes." He asked, "What town is this?" We said, "Allāh and His Messenger know better." Then he kept quiet so long that we thought he might call it by another name. He then said, "Isn't it the (sacred) town (Makkah)?" We said, "Yes." He asked, "What is the day today?" We said, "Allāh and His Messenger know better." Then he kept quiet so long that we thought he might call it by another name. Then he said, "Isn't it the day of An-Nahr (slaughtering of sacrifices)?” We said, “Yes.” Then he said, “Your blood (lives), your properties,” (the subnarrator Muḥammad said: I think he also said: “... and your honour”) are sacred to one another like the sanctity of this day of yours, in this town of yours, in this month of yours. You shall meet your Lord (Allāh تعالى) and He will ask you about your deeds. Beware! Don’t go astray after me by striking (cutting) the necks of one another. Verily, it is incumbent upon those who are present to inform it (this message) to those who are absent, for perhaps the informed one might comprehend it (understand it) better than some of the present audience.” (Whenever the subnarrator Muḥammad mentioned that statement, he would say, “The Prophet ﷺ said the truth.”) And then the Prophet ﷺ added, “No doubt! Haven’t I conveyed Allāh’s Message to you! No doubt! Haven’t I conveyed Allāh’s Message to you?” [See Hadīth No. 7078].

7448. Narrated Usāma: A son of one of the daughters of the Prophet ﷺ was dying, so she sent a messenger to call the Prophet ﷺ. He sent (her a message), “Whatever Allāh takes, is for Him, and whatever He gives, is for Him (too), and everything has a limited fixed term (in this world) so she should be patient and hope for Allāh’s reward.” She then sent for him again, swearing that he should come. Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ got up, and so did Mu’ādh bin Jabal, Ubayy bin Ka’b and ‘Ubāda bin Aṣ-Ṣāmit. When he entered (the house), they gave the child to Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ while its breath was disturbed in his chest. (The subnarrator said : I think he said, “.. as if it was a water-skin.”) Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ started weeping whereupon Sa’d bin Ubāda said, “Do you weep?” The Prophet ﷺ said, “Allāh is Merciful only to those of His slaves who are merciful (to others).”

So, one of you may do (good) deeds, characteristic of the people of Paradise so much that there is nothing except a cubit between him and Paradise but then what has been written for him decides his behaviour and he starts doing (evil) deeds characteristic of the people of Hell (Fire) and (ultimately) enters Hell (Fire); and one of you may do (evil) deeds, characteristic of the people of Hell (Fire) so much so that there is nothing except a cubit between him and Hell (Fire), then what has been written for him decides his behaviour and he starts doing (good) deeds characteristic of the people of Paradise and (ultimately) enters Paradise."

Mūsā said, 'No.' So Allāh sent the Divine Revelation to Mūsā: 'Yes, Our slave, Khidr is more learned than you.' Mūsā (Moses) asked Allāh how to meet him (Khidr). So Allāh made the fish as a sign for him and it was said to him, 'When you lose the fish, go back (to the place where you lose it) and you will meet him.' So Mūsā went on looking for the sign of the fish in the sea. The boy-servant of Mūsā (who was accompanying him) said to him, 'Do you remember (what happened) when we betook ourselves to the rock? I did indeed forget (to tell you about) the fish. None but Shaitān (Satan) made me forget to remember (to tell you about) it.' (V.18:63) Mūsā said: 'That is what we have been seeking.' So they went back retracing their footsteps. (V.18:64). So they both found Khiḏr (there) and then happened what Allāh mentioned about them (in the Qur'ān)!

So Bukhārī refuted the dogma of Mu'tazila and others. (2) (Ch.32) The Daiyān means the One Who judges people for their deeds after calling them to account. that when fear is banished from their (angels') hearts, they (angels) say, 'What is it that your Lord has said?'

7490. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا (regarding the Verse): "...And offer your Salāt (prayer) neither aloud nor in a low voice..." (V.17:110) This Verse was revealed while Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was hiding himself in Makkah, and when he raised his voice while reciting the Qur'ān, Al-Mushrikūn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allāh and in His Messenger Muḥammad ﷺ) would hear him and abuse the Qur'ān and its Revealer and to the one who brought it. So Allāh تعالى said: “...And offer your Salāt (prayer) neither aloud nor in a low voice...” (V.17:110) That is, ‘Do not say your Salāt (prayer) so loudly that Al-Mushrikūn should hear you, nor say it in such a low tone that your companions do not hear you.’ But seek a middle course between those (extremes), i.e., let your companions hear, so that they may learn it from you, and do not recite it (the Qur'ān) loudly (so that Al-Mushrikūn should hear it and abuse it, etc.).

"So look!" he added, "When I die, burn me, and when I turn into coal, crush me, and when there comes a windy day, scatter my ashes in the wind." The Prophet ﷺ added, "Then by Allāh, he took a firm promise from his children to do so, and they did so. (They burnt him after his death) and threw his ashes on a windy day. Then Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ commanded to his ashes. 'Be!', and behold! He became a man, standing! Allāh said, 'O My slave! What made you do what you did?' He replied, 'For fear of you.'

7510. Narrated Ma'bad bin Hilāl Al-'Anazī: We, i.e., some people from Baṣrahgathered and went to Anas bin Mālik, and wewent in company with Thābit Al-Bunānī sothat he might ask him about the 'Hadīth ofIntercession' on our behalf. Behold, Anaswas in his palace, and our arrival coincidedwith his Duhā prayer. We asked permissionto enter and he admitted us while he wassitting on his bed. We said to Thābit, "Donot ask him about anything else first but the'Hadīth of Intercession'." He said, "O AbūḤamza! These are your brethren fromBaṣrah coming to ask you about the 'Hadīthof Intercession.'" Anas then said:Muḥammad ﷺ said, "On the Day of Resurrection the people will surge like waves on one another, and then they will come to Ādam and say, 'Please intercede for us with your Lord.' He will say, 'I am not fit for that but you'd better go to (Prophet) Ibrāhīm (Abraham) as he is the Khālīl(1) of the Most Gracious (Allāh).' They will go to Ibrāhīm and he will say, 'I am not fit for that, but you'd better go to (Prophet) Mūsā (Moses) as he is the one to whom Allāh spoke directly.' So they will go to Mūsā and he will say, 'I am not fit for that, but you'd better go to 'Īsā (Jesus) as he is a soul(2) created by Allāh and His Word.' ('Be!' —and he was). They will go to 'Īsā and he will say, 'I am not fit for that, but you'd better go to (Prophet) Muḥammad (ﷺ).' They would come to me and I would say, 'I am for that.' Then I will ask for my Lord's Permission, and it will be given, and then He will reveal me to praise Him with such praises as I do not know now. So I will praise Him with those praises and will fall down prostrate before Him. Then it will be said, 'O Muḥammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to; and ask, for you will be granted (your request); and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will say, 'O Lord! My followers! My followers!' And then it will be said, 'Go and take out of Hell (Fire) all those who have Faith in their hearts equal to the weight of a barley grain.' I will go and do so and return to praise Him with the same praises, and fall down (prostrate) before Him. Then it will be said, 'O Muḥammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to, and ask, for you will be granted (your request); and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will say, 'O Lord, My followers! My followers!' It will be said, 'Go : See the glossary.(2) (H.7510) See the word in the glossary. and take out of it all those who have Faith in their hearts equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) or a mustard seed.' I will go and do so and return to praise Him with the same praises, and fall down in prostration before Him. It will be said, 'O, Muhammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to, and ask, for you will be granted (your request); and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will say, 'O Lord! My followers! My followers!' Then He will say, 'Go and take out (all those) in whose hearts there is Faith even to the lightest, lightest mustard seed. (Take them) out of the Fire.' I will go and do so." When we left Anas, I said to some of my companions, "Let's pass by Al-Hasan who is hiding himself in the house of Abi Khalifa and request him to tell us what Anas bin Mālik has told us." So we went to him and we greeted him and he admitted us. We said to him, "O Abū Sa'īd! We came to you from your brother Anas bin Mālik and he related to us a Hadīth about the intercession the like of which I have never heard." He said, "What is that?" Then we told him of the Hadīth and said, "He stopped at this point (of the Hadīth)." He said, "What then?" We said, "He did not add anything to that." He said, "Anas related the Hadīth to me twenty years ago when he was a young fellow. I don't know whether he forgot or if he did not like to let you depend on what he might have said." We said, "O Abū Sa'īd! Let us know that." He smiled and said, "Man was created hasty. I did not mention that, but that I wanted to inform you of it. Anas told me the same as he told you and said that the Prophet ﷺ added, 'I will then return for a fourth time and praise Him similarly and prostrate before Him and it will be said, 'O Muhammad, raise your head and speak, for you will be listened to; and ask, for you will be granted (your request), and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted.' I will say, 'O Lord allow me to intercede for whoever said 'Lā ilāha illallāh' (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh).' Then Allāh will say, 'By My Power, and My Majesty, and by My Supremacy, and by My Greatness, I will take out of Hell (fire) whoever said, 'Lā ilaha illallāh'."

I am the King!’” I saw the Prophet ﷺ smiling till his premolar teeth became visible expressing his amazement and his belief in what he had said. Then the Prophet ﷺ recited: “They made not a just estimate of Allāh such as is due to Him... (up to)... High is He above all that they associate as partners with Him!” (V.39:67) (See H. 4811, Vol. 6)

7517. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: The night Allāh's Messenger ﷺ was taken for a journey from the sacred mosque (of Makkah) Al-Ka'bah (Al-Masjid-al-Haram), three persons (angels) came to him (in a dream) while he was sleeping in Al-Masjid-al-Harām before the Divine Revelation was revealed to him. One of them (angels) said, "Which of them is he?"(1) The middle (second) angel said, "He is the best of them." The last (third) angel said, "Take the best of them." Only that much happened on that night and he did not see them till they came on another night, i.e., after the Divine Revelation was revealed to him. (Faṭh-Al-Bārī) The Prophet saw them, his eyes were asleep but his heart was not and so is the case with the Prophets: Their eyes sleep while their hearts do not sleep. So those angels did not talk to him till they carried him and placed him beside the well of Zam-zam. From among them Jibrīl (Gabriel) took charge of him. Jibrīl (Gabriel) cut open (the part of his body) between his throat and the middle of his chest (heart) and took all the contents out of his chest and abdomen and then washed it with Zam-zam water with his own hands till he cleansed the inside of his body, and then a gold tray containing a gold bowl, full of belief and wisdom was brought and then Jibrīl (Gabriel) stuffed his chest and throat (blood vessels) with it and then closed it (the chest). He then ascended with him to the heaven of the world and knocked on one of its doors. The dwellers of the heaven asked, "Who is it?" He said, "Jibrīl (Gabriel)." They said, "Who is accompanying you?" He said, "Muḥammad." They said, "Has he been called?" He said, "Yes." They said, "He is welcome." So the dwellers of the heaven became pleased with his arrival, and they did not know what Allāh wants from the Prophet (ﷺ) to do on earth unless Allāh informed them. The Prophet ﷺ met Ādam over the nearest heaven. Jibrīl (Gabriel) said to the Prophet ﷺ, "He is your father; greet him." The Prophet ﷺ greeted him and Ādam returned his greeting and said, "Welcome, O my son! What a good son you are!" Behold, the Prophet ﷺ saw two flowing rivers, while he was in the nearest heaven. He asked, "What are these two rivers, O Jibrīl (Gabriel)?" Jibrīl (Gabriel) said, "These are the sources of the Nile and the Euphrates." Then Jibrīl (Gabriel) took him around that heaven and behold, he saw another river at the bank of which there was a palace built of pearls and emerald. He put his hand into the river and found its mud like musk Adhfar. He asked, "What is this, O Jibrīl (Gabriel)?" Jibrīl (Gabriel) said, "This is Al-Kauthar which your Lord has kept for you." Then Jibrīl (Gabriel) ascended (with him) to the second heaven and the angels asked the same questions as those on the first heaven, i.e., "Who is it?" Jibrīl (Gabriel) replied, "Jibrīl (Gabriel)". They asked, "Who is accompanying you?" He said, "Muḥammad." They asked, "Has he been sent for?" He said, "Yes." Then they said, "He is welcome." Then he Jibrīl (Gabriel) ascended with the Prophet ﷺ to the third heaven, and the angels said the same as the angels of the first and the second heavens had said. Then he ascended with him to the fourth heaven and they said the same; and then he ascended with him to the fifth heaven and they said the same; and then he ascended with him to the sixth heaven and they said the same; then he ascended with him to the seventh heaven and they said the same. On each heaven there were Prophets whose names he had mentioned and of whom I remember Idrīs on the second heaven. Harūn (Aaron) on the fourth heaven, another Prophet whose name I don't remember, on the fifth heaven, Ibrāhīm (Abraham) on the sixth heaven and Mūsā (Moses) on the seventh heaven because of his privilege of talking to Allāh directly. Mūsā said (to Allāh), "O Lord! I thought that none would be raised up above me." But Jibrīl (Gabriel) ascended with him (the Prophet) for a distance above that, the distance of which only Allāh knows, till he reached the Lote-tree of the utmost boundary (beyond which none may pass) and then the Irresistible, the Lord of Honour and Majesty approached and came closer till he [Jibrīl (Gabriel)] was about two bow lengths or (even) nearer. [It is said that it was Jibrīl (Gabriel) who approached and came closer to the Prophet ﷺ — Faṭh Al-Bārī]. Among the things which Allāh revealed to him then, were fifty Salāt (prayers) enjoined on his followers in a day and a night. Then the Prophet ﷺ descended till he met Mūsā, and then Mūsā stopped him and asked, "O Muḥammad! What did your Lord enjoin upon you?" The Prophet replied, "He enjoined upon me to perform fifty Salāt (prayers) in a day and a night." Mūsā said, "Your followers cannot do that. Go back so that your Lord may reduce it for you and for them." So the Prophet ﷺ turned to Jibrīl (Gabriel) as if he wanted to consult him about that issue. Jibrīl (Gabriel) told him of his opinion, saying, "Yes, if you wish." So ascended with him [Jibrīl (Gabriel)] to the Irresistible and said while he was in his place, "O Lord, please lighten our burden as my followers cannot do that." So Allāh deducted for him ten Salāt (prayers) whereupon he returned to Moses who stopped him again and kept on sending him back to his Lord till the enjoined Salāt (prayers) were reduced to only five Salāt (prayers). Then Mūsā stopped him when the Salāt (prayers) had been reduced to five and said, "O Muhammad! By Allāh! I tried to persuade my nation, Bani Isrā'ēl to do less than this, but they could not do it and gave it up. However, your followers are weaker in body, heart, sight and hearing, so return to your Lord so that He may lighten your burden." The Prophet ﷺ turned towards Jibrīl (Gabriel) for advice and Jibrīl (Gabriel) did not disapprove of that. So he ascended with him for the fifth time. The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Lord, my followers are weak in their bodies, hearts, hearing and constitution, so lighten our burden." On that the Irresistible said, "O Muhammad!" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Labbaik wa Sa'daik." Allāh said, "The Word that comes from Me does not change, so it will be as I enjoined on you in the Mother of the Book." Allāh added, "Every good deed will be rewarded as ten times so it is fifty Salāt (prayers) in the Mother of the Book (in reward) but you are to perform only five (in practise)." The Prophet ﷺ returned to Moses who asked, "What have you done?" He said, "He has lightened our burden: He has given us for every good deed a tenfold reward." Mūsā said, "By Allāh! I tried to make Bani Isrā'ēl observe less than that, but they gave it up. So go back to your Lord that He may lighten your burden further." Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "O Mūsā By Allāh, I feel shy of returning too many times to my Lord." On that Jibrīl (Gabriel) said, "Descend in Allāh's Name." The Prophet ﷺ then woke while he was in the Al-Masjid-al-Haram (at Makkah). (See H. 3207, Vol.4)

He will say, 'Shall I not give you something, better than that?' They will say, 'O our Lord! What else could be better than that?' He will say, 'I bestow My Pleasure on you and will never be angry with you after that.'"

7519. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Once the Prophet ﷺ was preaching while a bedouin was sitting there. The Prophet ﷺ said, "A man from among the people of Paradise will request Allāh to allow him to cultivate the land. Allāh will say to him, 'Haven't you got whatever you desire?' He will reply, 'Yes, but I like to cultivate the land.' (Allāh will permit him and) he will sow the seeds, and within seconds the plants will grow and ripen and (the yield) will be harvested and piled in heaps like mountains. On that Allāh will say (to him), 'Take, here you are, O son of Ādam, for nothing satisfies you.' " On that the bedouin said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Such man must be either from Quraish or from Anṣār, for they are farmers while we are not." On that Allāh's Messenger ☼ smiled.
