Narrated `Abdullah: The best talk (speech) is Allah’s Book ‘Qur’an), and the best way is the way of Muhammad, and the
worst matters are the heresies (those new things which are introduced into the religion); and whatever
you have been promised will surely come to pass, and you cannot escape (it).

Narrated Anas bin Malik: A man said, “O Allah’s Prophet! Who is my father?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Your father is so-and-so.”
And then the Divine Verse:– ‘O you who believe! Ask not questions about things..(5.101)

Narrated Abu Huraira and Zaid bin Khalid: We were with the Prophet (ﷺ) when he said (to two men), “I shall judge between you according to Allah’s
Book (Laws).”

Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “People will not stop asking questions till they say, ‘This is Allah, the Creator of
everything, then who created Allah?’ ”

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “All my followers will enter Paradise except those who refuse.” They said, “O
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Who will refuse?” He said, “Whoever obeys me will enter Paradise, and whoever
disobeys me is the one who refuses (to enter it).”

Narrated Ibn Masud: I was with the Prophet (ﷺ) at one of the farms of Medina while he was leaning on a date palm leaf-stalk.
He passed by a group of Jews and some of them said to the other, Ask him (the Prophet) about the
spirit. Some others said, “Do not ask him, lest he should tell you what you dislike” But they went up
to him and said, “O Abal Qasim! Inform us bout the spirit.” The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up for a while, waiting.
I realized that he was being Divinely Inspired, so I kept away from him till the inspiration was over.
Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “(O Muhammad) they ask you regarding the spirit, Say: The spirit its
knowledge is with my Lord (i.e., nobody has its knowledge except Allah)” (17.85) (This is a miracle
of the Qur’an that all the scientists up till now do not know about the spirit, i.e, how life comes to a
body and how it goes away at its death) (See Hadith No. 245, Vol. 6)

Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: Some angels came to the Prophet (ﷺ) while he was sleeping. Some of them said, “He is sleeping.” Others
said, “His eyes are sleeping but his heart is awake.” Then they said, “There is an example for this
companion of yours.” One of them said, “Then set forth an example for him.” Some of them said, “He
is sleeping.” The others said, “His eyes are sleeping but his heart is awake.” Then they said, “His
example is that of a man who has built a house and then offered therein a banquet and sent an inviter
(messenger) to invite the people. So whoever accepted the invitation of the inviter, entered the house
and ate of the banquet, and whoever did not accept the invitation of the inviter, did not enter the
house, nor did he eat of the banquet.” Then the angels said, “Interpret this example to him so that he
may understand it.” Some of them said, “He is sleeping.” The others said, “His eyes are sleeping but
his heart is awake.” And then they said, “The houses stands for Paradise and the call maker is
Muhammad; and whoever obeys Muhammad, obeys Allah; and whoever disobeys Muhammad,
disobeys Allah. Muhammad separated the people (i.e., through his message, the good is distinguished
from the bad, and the believers from the disbelievers).

Narrated Salama bin Al-Akwa`: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said to a man from the tribe of Al-Aslam, “Proclaim among your people (or the
people) on the day of ‘Ashura’ (tenth of Muharram), ‘Whosoever has eaten anything should fast for the
rest of the day; and whoever has not eaten anything, should complete his fast.’ ”

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: When the delegate of `Abd Al-Qais came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), he said, “Who are the delegate?” They
said, “The delegate are from the tribe of Rabi`a.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Welcome, O the delegate, and
welcome! O people! Neither you will have any disgrace nor will you regret.” They said, “O Allah’s
Apostle! Between you and us there are the infidels of the tribe of Mudar, so please order us to do
something good (religious deeds) that by acting on them we may enter Paradise, and that we may
inform (our people) whom we have left behind, about it.” They also asked (the Prophet) about drinks.
He forbade them from four things and ordered them to do four things. He ordered them to believe in
Allah, and asked them, “Do you know what is meant by belief in Allah?” They said, “Allah and His
Apostle know best.” He said, ”To testify that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, the
One, Who has no partners with Him, and that Muhammad is Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ); and to offer prayers
perfectly and to pay Zakat.” (the narrator thinks that fasting in Ramadan is included), “and to give
one-fifth of the war booty (to the state).” Then he forbade four (drinking utensils): Ad-Duba’, Al56
Hantam, Al-Mazaffat and An-Naqir, or probably, Al-Muqaiyar. And then the Prophet (ﷺ) said,
“Remember all these things by heart and preach it to those whom you have left behind.”

Narrated Tauba Al-`Anbari: Ash-‘Shu`bi asked me, “Did you notice how Al-Hasan used to narrate Hadiths from the Prophets? I
stayed with Ibn `Umar for about two or one-and-half years and I did not hear him narrating any thing
from the Prophet (ﷺ) except his (Hadith): He (Ibn `Umar) said, “Some of the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ)
including Sa`d, were going to eat meat, but one of the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) called them, saying, ‘It is
the meat of a Mastigure.’ The people then stopped eating it. On that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, ‘Carry on
eating, for it is lawful.’ Or said, ‘There is no harm in eating it, but it is not from my meals.”
