Narrated Aisha: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) addressed the people, and after praising and glorifying Allah, he said, “What do you
suggest me regarding those people who are abusing my wife? I have never known anything bad about
her.” The sub-narrator, `Urwa, said: When `Aisha was told of the slander, she said, “O Allah’s
Apostle! Will you allow me to go to my parents’ home?” He allowed her and sent a slave along with
her. An Ansari man said, “Subhanaka! It is not right for us to speak about this. Subhanaka! This is a
great lie!”

Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas (ra): The Prophet (ﷺ) sent Mu’adh to Yemen.

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: When the Prophet (ﷺ) sent Mu`adh 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, be the Tauhid of Allah. If they
learn that, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them, five prayers to be offered in one day and one
night. And if they pray, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them Zakat of their properties and it is to
be taken from the rich among them and given to the poor. And if they agree to that, then take from
them Zakat but avoid the best property of the people.”

Narrated Mu`adh bin Jabal: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “O Mu`adh! Do you know what Allah’s Right upon His slaves is?” I said, “Allah
and His Apostle know best.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “To worship Him (Allah) Alone and to join none in
worship with Him (Allah). Do you know what their right upon Him is?” I replied, “Allah and His
Apostle know best.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Not to punish them (if they do so).

Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri: A man heard another man reciting (in the prayers): ‘Say (O Muhammad): “He is Allah, the One.”
(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 Sura by itself was not enough. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)
said, “By Him in Whose Hand my life is, it is equal to one-third of the Qur’an.”

Narrated `Aisha: The Prophet (ﷺ) sent (an army unit) under the command of a man who used to lead his companions in the
prayers and would finish his recitation with (the Sura 112): ‘Say (O Muhammad): “He is Allah, the
One.” ‘ (112.1) When they returned (from the battle), they mentioned that to the Prophet. He said (to
them), “Ask him why he does so.” They asked him and he said, “I do so because it mentions the
qualities of the Beneficent and I love to recite it (in my prayer).” The Prophet; said (to them), “Tell
him that Allah loves him.”

Narrated Jarir bin `Abdullah: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Allah will not be merciful to those who are not merciful to mankind.”

Narrated Usama bin Zaid: 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 Allah takes is His, and whatever He gives is His, and everything
with Him has a limited fixed term (in this world). So order her to be patient and hope for Allah’s
reward.” But she sent the messenger to the Prophet (ﷺ) again, swearing that he should come to her. So the
Prophet got up, and so did Sa`d bin ‘Ubada and Mu`adh 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 Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)!
What is this?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “This is mercy which Allah has put in the heart of His slaves, and
Allah bestows His mercy only on those of His slaves who are merciful (to others).”

Narrated Abu Huraira: The people of the Book used to read the Torah in Hebrew and then explain it in Arabic to the
Muslims. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said (to the Muslims). “Do not believe the people of the Book, nor
disbelieve them, but say, ‘We believe in Allah and whatever is revealed to us, and whatever is
revealed to you.’ ”

Narrated Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “None is more patient than Allah against the harmful and annoying words He hears
(from the people): They ascribe children to Him, yet He bestows upon them health and provision .
