Tag: Q n A, Bukhari

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Seventy thousand people of my followers will enter Paradise without accounts,
and they are those who do not practice Ar-Ruqya and do not see an evil omen in things, and put their
trust in their Lord.

I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying, Verily Allah created Mercy. The day He created it, He made it into one
hundred parts. He withheld with Him ninety-nine parts, and sent its one part to all His creatures. Had
the non-believer known of all the Mercy which is in the Hands of Allah, he would not lose hope of
entering Paradise, and had the believer known of all the punishment which is present with Allah, he
would not consider himself safe from the Hell-Fire.”

Some people from the Ansar asked Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) (to give them something) and he gave to everyone
of them, who asked him, until all that he had was finished. When everything was finished and he had
spent all that was in his hand, he said to them, ‘”(Know) that if I have any wealth, I will not withhold it
from you (to keep for somebody else); And (know) that he who refrains from begging others (or doing
prohibited deeds), Allah will make him contented and not in need of others; and he who remains
patient, Allah will bestow patience upon him, and he who is satisfied with what he has, Allah will
make him self-sufficient. And there is no gift better and vast (you may be given) than patience.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Do good deeds properly, sincerely and moderately, and receive good news because
one’s good deeds will not make him enter Paradise.” They asked, “Even you, O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)?” He
said, “Even I, unless and until Allah bestows His pardon and Mercy on me.”

Once Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) led us in prayer and then (after finishing it) ascended the pulpit and pointed with
his hand towards the Qibla of the mosque and said, “While I was leading you in prayer, both Paradise
and Hell were displayed in front of me in the direction of this wall. I had never seen a better thing
(than Paradise) and a worse thing (than Hell) as I have seen today, I had never seen a better thing and
a worse thing as I have seen today.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) was asked, “What deeds are loved most by Allah?” He said, “The most regular constant
deeds even though they may be few.” He added, ‘Don’t take upon yourselves, except the deeds which
are within your ability.”

I asked `Aisha, mother of the believers, “O mother of the believers! How were the deeds of the
Prophet? Did he use to do extra deeds of worship on special days?” She said, “No, but his deeds were
regular and constant, and who among you is able to do what the Prophet (ﷺ) was able to do (i.e. in
worshipping Allah)?”

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “The deeds of anyone of you will not save you (from the (Hell) Fire).” They said,
“Even you (will not be saved by your deeds), O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)?” He said, “No, even I (will not be
saved) unless and until Allah bestows His Mercy on me. Therefore, do good deeds properly, sincerely
and moderately, and worship Allah in the forenoon and in the afternoon and during a part of the night,
and always adopt a middle, moderate, regular course whereby you will reach your target (Paradise).

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Do good deeds properly, sincerely and moderately and know that your deeds
will not make you enter Paradise, and that the most beloved deed to Allah is the most regular and
constant even if it were little.”

I asked `Aisha “What deed was the most beloved to the Prophet?” She said, “The regular constant
one.” I said, “At what time did he use to get up at night (for the Tahajjud night prayer)?’ She said, “He
used to get up on hearing (the crowing of) the cock (the last third of the night).
