From Abū Mālik al-Ḥārith bin ʿĀṣim al-Ashʿarī (raḍiyallāhu ʿanhu) who said: The Messenger of Allāh (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wasallam) said: "Purity is one-half of faith, (saying) 'alḥamdulillāh' fills the scales, and (saying) 'subḥānallāh wal-ḥamdulillāh' fill what is between the heavens and the earth. Prayer is light, charity is an evidence and patience is illumination. The Qurʾān is a proof for or against you. Everyone awakes as a vendorof his own soul, so either he delivers it or destroys it."

عن [أبي مالكٍ الحارثِ بنِ عاصمٍ الأشْعَرِيِّ] رَضِي اللهُ عَنْهُ، قالَ: (قالَ رسولُ اللهِ صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّمَ: "الطُّـهُورُ شَطْرُ الإِيمَانِ، وَالْحَمْدُ للهِ تَمْلأُ الْمِيزَانَ، وَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَالْحَمْدُ للهِ تَمْلأُ — [أَو تَمْلَآنِ] — مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَواتِ وَالأَرْضِ، وَالصَّلاَةُ نُورٌ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ بُرْهَانٌ، وَالصَّبْرُ ضِيَاءٌ، وَالْقُرْآنُ حُجَّةٌ لَكَ أَوْ عَلَيْكَ، كُلُّ النَّاسِ يَغْدُو؛ فَبَائِعٌ نَفْسَهُ فَمُعْتِقُهَا أَوْ مُوبِقُهَا"). رواه مسلِمٌ.
