Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “None of you should say: ‘O Allah! Forgive me if You wish,’ or ‘Bestow Your
Mercy on me if You wish,’ or ‘Provide me with means of subsistence if You wish,’ but he should be
firm in his request, for Allah does what He will and nobody can force Him (to do anything).

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: That he differed with Al-Hurr bin Qais bin Hisn Al-Fazari about the companion of Moses, (i.e.,
whether he was Kha,dir or not). Ubai bin Ka`b Al-Ansari passed by them and Ibn `Abbas called him
saying, ‘My friend (Hur) and I have differed about Moses’ Companion whom Moses asked the way to
meet. Did you hear Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) mentioning anything about him?” Ubai said, “Yes, I heard Allah’s
Apostle saying, “While Moses was sitting in the company of some Israelites a man came to him and
asked, ‘Do you know Someone who is more learned than you (Moses)?’ Moses said, ‘No.’ So Allah
sent the Divine inspiration to Moses:–
‘Yes, Our Slave Khadir is more learned than you’ Moses asked Allah how to meet him ( Khadir) So
Allah 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 Moses went on looking for the sign of the fish in
the sea. The boy servant of Moses (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 Satan made me forget to tell you about it’ (18.63) Moses said:
‘That is what we have been seeking.” Sa they went back retracing their footsteps. (18.64). So they both
found Kadir (there) and then happened what Allah mentioned about them (in the Qur’an)!’ (See 18.60-
82)

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “If Allah wills, tomorrow we will encamp in Khaif Bani Kinana, the place where
the pagans took the oath of Kufr (disbelief) against the Prophet. He meant Al-Muhassab. (See Hadith 1589 )

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: The Prophet (ﷺ) besieged the people of Ta’if, but he did not conquer it. He said, “Tomorrow, if Allah will,
we will return home. On this the Muslims said, “Then we return without conquering it?” He said,
‘Then carry on fighting tomorrow.” The next day many of them were injured. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “If
Allah will, we will return home tomorrow.” It seemed that statement pleased them whereupon Allah’s
Apostle smiled.

Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “When Allah ordains something on the Heaven the angels beat with their wings in
obedience to His Statement which sounds like that of a chain dragged over a rock. His Statement:
“Until when the fear is banished from their hearts, the Angels say, ‘What was it that your Lord said?’
‘They reply, ‘(He has said) the Truth. And He is the Most High, The Great. ” (34.23)

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “The example of a believer is that of a fresh green plant the leaves of which
move in whatever direction the wind forces them to move and when the wind becomes still, it stand
straight. Such is the similitude of the believer: He is disturbed by calamities (but is like the fresh plant
he regains his normal state soon). And the example of a disbeliever is that of a pine tree (which
remains) hard and straight till Allah cuts it down when He will.” (See Hadith No. 546 and 547, Vol.
7).

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Allah never listens to anything as He listens to the Prophet (ﷺ) reciting Qur’an in a
pleasant sweet sounding voice.” A companion of Abu Huraira said, “He means, reciting the Qur’an
aloud.”

Narrated `Abdullah: A Jewish Rabbi came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and said, “O Muhammad! Allah will put the Heavens on one
finger and the earth on one finger, and the trees and the rivers on one finger, and the rest of the
creation on one finger, and then will say, pointing out with His Hand, ‘I am the King.’ “On that Allah’s
Apostle smiled and said, “No just estimate have they made of Allah such as due to Him. (39.67)

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: Once I stayed overnight at the house of (my aunt ) Maimuna while the Prophet (ﷺ) was with her, to see
how was the night prayer of Allah s Apostle Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) talked to his wife for a while and then
slept. When it was the last third of the night (or part of it), the Prophet (ﷺ) got up and looked towards the
sky and recited the Verse:– ‘Verily! In the creation of the Heavens and the Earth….there are indeed
signs for the men of understanding.’ (3.190)
Then He got up and performed the ablution, brushed his teeth and offered eleven rak`at. Then Bilal
pronounced the Adhan whereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) offered a two-rak`at (Sunna) prayer and went out to
lead the people in Fajr (morning compulsory congregational prayer.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “When Allah created the creations, He wrote with Him on His Throne: ‘My
Mercy has preceded My Anger.”
