    It was narrated from Awsat (bin Isma’il) Al-Bajali that : he heard Abu Bakr, when the Prophet (saas) had passed away, saying: “The Messenger of Allah (saas) stood in this place where I am standing, last year.” Then Abu Bakr wept, then he said: “You must adhere to the truth, for with it comes righteousness and they both lead to Paradise. And you must beware of lying for with it comes immorality, and they both lead to Hell. Ask Allah for Al-Mu’afah, for no one is given anything after certainty that is better than Mu’afah. Do not envy one another, do not hate one another, do not sever ties with one another, do not turn your backs on one another and be, O slaves of Allah, brothers.”
