False witness

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 821 Narrated Anas:
The Prophet was asked about the great sins He said, "They are:--
(1 ) To join others in worship with Allah,
(2) To be undutiful to one's parents.
(3) To kill a person (which Allah has forbidden to kill) (i.e. to commit the crime of murdering).
(4) And to give a false witness."

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 822 Narrated Abu Bakra:
The Prophet said thrice, "Should I inform you out the greatest of the great sins?" They said, "Yes, O Allah's Apostle!" He said, "To join others in worship with Allah and to be undutiful to one's parents." The Prophet then sat up after he had been reclining (on a pillow) and said, "And I warn you against giving a false witness, and he kept on saying that warning till we thought he would not stop. (See Hadith No. 7, Vol. 8)

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 824 Narrated Abdullah bin Umar:
The Prophet said, "Bilal pronounces the Adhan when it is still night (before dawn), so eat and drink till the next Adhan is pronounced (or till you hear Ibn Um Maktum's Adhan)." Ibn Um Maktum was a blind man who would not pronounce the Adhan till he was told that it was dawn.

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 825 Narrated Al-Miswar bin Makhrama:
Some outer garments were received the Prophet and my father (Makhrama) said to me, "Let us go to the Prophet so that he may give us something from the garments." So, my father stood at the door and spoke. The Prophet recognized his voice and came out carrying a garment and telling Makhrama the good qualities of that garment, adding, "I have kept this for you, I have sent this for you."

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 826 Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
The Prophet said, "Isn't the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?" The women said, "Yes." He said, "This is because of the deficiency of a woman's mind."

Witness for injustice

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 818
Narrated An-Nu'man bin Bashir:


My mother asked my father to present me a gift from his property; and he gave it to me after some hesitation. My mother said that she would not be satisfied unless the Prophet was made a witness to it. I being a young boy, my father held me by the hand and took me to the Prophet . He said to the Prophet, "His mother, bint Rawaha, requested me to give this boy a gift." The Prophet said, "Do you have other sons besides him?" He said, "Yes." The Prophet said, "Do not make me a witness for injustice." Narrated Ash-Shabi that the Prophet said, "I will not become a witness for injustice."

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 819
Narrated Zahdam bin Mudrab:

I heard Imran bin Husain saying, "The Prophet said, 'The best people are those living in my generation, then those coming after them, and then those coming after (the second generation)." Imran said "I do not know whether the Prophet mentioned two or three generations after your present generation. The Prophet added, 'There will be some people after you, who will be dishonest and will not be trustworthy and will give witness (evidences) without being asked to give witness, and will vow but will not fulfill their vows, and fatness will appear among them."

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 820
Narrated Abdullah:


The Prophet said, "The people of my generation are the best, then those who follow them, and then whose who follow the latter. After that there will come some people whose witness will go ahead of their oaths, and their oaths will go ahead of their witness." Ibrahim (a sub-narrator) said, "We used to be beaten for taking oaths by saying, 'I bear witness by the Name of Allah or by the Covenant of Allah."

'ALLAH THE EXALTED

ABU HURAIRA(R.A): REPORTED, MESSENGER OF ALLAH(SAW) SAID, 'ALLAH THE EXALTED,SAYS: HONOUR IS MY IZAR AND PRIDE IS MY CLOAK. WHOEVER VIES WITH ME REGARDING ONE OF THEM, SHALL BE TORMENTED.(MUSLIM 72:618)

FIAMANILLAH

Prophet Muhammad sullullahu alaihi wassalam said : When any one of u joins a gathering, let him say salam & when he wants to leave, let him say salam (Abu Dawood,Tirmizi,Ahmad)
Using FIAMANILLAH, ALLAH HAFIZ, KHUDA HAFIZ are NOT sunnah - say assalamolaikum when u meet and Depart

Month of Safar

Month of Safar is like all other months. Dont fall into superstition that this month isnot lucky or it is unsafe- these are followings of the time of jahiliya. NO special prayers to be offered in this Month- it DONT belong to Quran & Sunnah!
Prophet (saw) said- "No 'Adwa(Disease) nor Safar, Allah created every soul and wrote its life, livelihood and trials." [At-Tirmithi]
Nabi ne kaha - Koi Bimari ya Safar ka mahina kisiko nuksan NAHI pohcha sakta,ALLAH ne sabko banaya hai,Sabki Zindagi,Rizq,Aazmaishe sirf ALLAH ke hath mai hai-TIRMIZI
Safar ka mahina sabhi Mahino ki tarah ALLAH ne banaya hai is Mahine mai koi burai Nuadhubillah nahi hai. Safar mai padi jaanewali alag namaze Quran aur Sunnah se sabit NAHI !! yeh Jahiliya ke waqt ki baatien hai jo aaj bhi hum musalamaan faila rahe hai..

Last Day

It is narrated on the authority of Abu Shuraih al-Khuzai' that the Prophet (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) observed: He who believes in Allah and the Last Day should do good to his neighbour and he who believes in Allah and the Last Day should show hospitality to the guest and he who believes in Allah and the Last Day should either speak good or better remain silent.
[Muslim Book 1 No. 78]

Human heart

Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said that Allah said:“I have prepared for My righteous servants what no eye has seen and no ear has heard, nor has it occurred to human heart.” [Bukhari] In other words, Jannat is better than anything you can imagine. Our human experience does not prepare us to imagine how wonderful it could be.“And no soul knows what joy for them (the inhabitants of Paradise) has been kept hidden.” [Al-Quran 32:17]

Get Married as soon as possible in ISLAM

Hastening to get married is something that is required in Islam for the one who is able to do that, and this injunction applies particularly to the young, because the Prophet (PBUH) said:“O young men, whoever among you can afford it, let him get married, for it is more effective in lowering the gaze and guarding one’s chastity. And whoever cannot afford it, let him fast, for it will be a shield for him.” Narrated by al-Bukhari (1905) and Muslim (1400).
Al-Nawawi said: In this hadeeth there is the command to get married for the one who can afford it and feels inclined towards it. There is consensus on this point.
Shaykh Ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him) said:My advice to all young men and women is to hasten to get married if they are able to, because the Prophet (PBUH) said: “O young people, whoever among you can afford to get married, let him do so…” (Agreed upon). And He (PBUH) said: “If there comes to you one whose religious commitment and attitude pleases you, then marry [your female relative who is under your care] to him, for if you do not do that, there will be tribulation on earth and much corruption.”
Narrated by al-Tirmidhi with a hasan isnaad. And He (PBUH) said: “Marry the one who is loving and fertile, for I will feel proud of your large numbers before the other Prophets on the Day of Resurrection.”
Narrated by Imam Ahmad; classed as saheeh by Ibn Hibbaan. And because there are many benefits in that, as the Prophet (PBUH) pointed out, such as lowering the gaze, guarding chastity, increasing the numbers of the Muslim ummah, keeping safe from tribulation and trouble.

Free man

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 752 Narrated 'Aisha:
I intended to buy Buraira but her masters stipulated that her Wala should be for them. When the Prophet was told about it, he said to me, "Buy and manumit her, as the Wala' is for the liberator." Once Buraira was given some meat, and the Prophet asked, "What is this?" I said, "It has been given to Buraira in charity." He said, "It is sadaqa for her but a gift for us." Buraira was given the option (to stay with her husband or to part with him). AbdurRahman (a sub-narrator) wondered, "Was her husband a slave or a free man?" Shu'ba (another sub-narrator) said, "I asked 'Abdur-Rahman whether her husband was a slave or a free man. He replied that he did not know whether he was a slave or a free man."

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 753 Narrated Um 'Atiyya:
Once the Prophet went to 'Aisha and asked her whether she had something (to eat). She said that she had nothing except the mutton which Um 'Atiyya had sent to (Buraira) in charity. The Prophet said that it had reached its destination (i.e. it is no longer an object of charity.)

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 756 Narrated 'Azra bin Thabit Al-Ansari:
When I went to Thumama bin 'Abdullah, he gave me some perfume and said that Anas would not reject the gifts of perfume. Anas said: The Prophet used not to reject the gifts of perfume.

MEDIA ONCE AGAIN

may peace, mercy & blessings of almighty Allah(swt) be on you all,
Today i happeneed to see the program, we the people, in which all the bollywood people were there, along with brother zakir, and i am totally unhappy to tell that MEDIA ONCE AGAIN PLAYED DOUBLE STANDARDS, barkha dutt, supposed to be a generalist, forgot the rights of "TIME ALLOTMENT". many questions asked to zakir bhai were given only maximum 30seconds to answer, were as others were given 2-3minutes. All the answers to the questions were interrupted by others, to cut down brother's answer & to get it out of context.JUST SEE THE DOUBLE STANDARDS OF "MEDIA".
I REQUEST ALL THE PEOPLE READING THIS MESSAGE TO STAND UP & DO THE BEST TO STOP THIS EVIL. AS THERE IS A SAHIH HADEES THAT "WHO EVER SEES THE EVIL AROUND HIM SHOULD STOP WITH HIS HAND, IF NOT THEN TONGUE, IF NOT ATLEAST BY HEART". THIS IS THE LOWEST LEVEL OF IMAN.
ACCORDING TO ME THESE MEDIA PEOPLE HAVE CHEATED ZAKIR BHAI OR ELSE HE WOULD'NT HAVE ACCEPTED THOSE SORT OF RULES.
HOWEVER MUCH PEOPLE TRY TO SUPPRESS ISLAM, INSHA ALLAH, BY THE WILL OF ALLAH(SWT) IT WILL GROW MORE THAN THAT. INSHA ALLAH.

Beyond three nights

[Muslim. Bk 32 Num 6210]
Abu Ayyub Ansiri reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: It is not permissible for a Muslim to have estranged relations with his brother beyond three nights, the one turning one way and the other turning the other way when they meet; the better of the two is one who is the first to give a greeting.

Other wives

D wives of Allah's Apostle were in 2groups.1group consisted of 'Aisha, Hafsa, Safiyya and Sauda;n d other group consisted of Um Salama n d other wives of Allah's Apostle.D Muslims knew dat Allah's Apostle loved Aisha, so if any of dem had a gift n wished 2 give to Allah's Apostle,he would delay it,till Allah's Apostle had come to Aisha's home n den he would send his gift to Allah's Apostle in her home.D group of Um Salama discussed D matter together n decided dat Um Salama should request Allah's Apostle 2 tell d people 2 send their gifts 2 him in whatever wife's house he was.Um Salama told Allah's Apostle of what dey had said,but he did not reply.Den dey(those wives) asked Um Salama about it.She said,"He did not say anything to me."They asked her to talk to him again.She talked 2him again when she met him on her day,but he gave no reply. When they asked her,she replied that he had given no reply.Dey said 2 her,"Talk to him till he gives you a reply."Whn it was her turn,she talked 2 him again.He den said 2her,"Do not hurt me regarding Aisha,as d Divine Inspirations do not come 2me on any of the beds except that of Aisha."On that Um Salama said,"I repent to Allah for hurting you."Den d group of Um Salama called Fatima,D daughter of Allah's Apostle n sent her 2 Allah's Apostle 2 say 2 him,"Ur wives request to treat them n d daughter of Abu Bakr on equal terms."Den Fatima conveyed D message to him.D Prophet said, "O my daughter!Don't you love whom I love?"She replied in the affirmative and returned and told them of the situation.dey requested her 2go 2 him again but she refused.Dey then sent Zainab bint Jahsh who went to him n used harsh words saying,Ur wives request u 2 treat dem n D daughter of Ibn Abu Quhafa on equal terms."On dat she raised her voice n abused 'Aisha to her face so much so dat Allah's Apostle looked at 'Aisha to c whether she wd retort.''Aisha started replying to Zainab till she silenced her.D Prophet den looked at 'Aisha and sd "She is really the daughter of Abu bakr

The Prophet appointed a man from the tribe of Al-Azd, called Ibn 'Utbiyya for collecting the Zakat.

The Prophet said, "Why hadn't he stayed in his father's or mother's house to see whether he would be given presents or not? By Him in Whose Hands my life is, whoever takes something from the resources of the Zakat (unlawfully) will be carrying it on his neck on the Day of Resurrection; if it be a camel, it will be grunting; if a cow, it will be mooing; and if a sheep, it will be bleating."

The Prophet then asked him, "Can you feed sixty poor persons?" He replied in the negative. In the meantime an Ansari came with a basket full of dates. The Prophet said to the man, "Take it and give it in charity (as an expiation of your sin)." The man said "Should I give it to some people who are poorer than we O Allah's Apostle?

So, Allah's Apostle did not give them the fruits, nor did he cut them and distribute them among them, but said, "I will come to you tomorrow morning." So, he came to us the next morning and walked about in between the date-palms and invoked Allah to bless their fruits. I plucked the fruits and gave back all the rights of the creditors in full, and a lot of fruits were left for us. Then I went to Allah's Apostle, who was sitting, and informed him about what happened. Allah's Apostle told 'Umar, who was sitting there, to listen to the story.

Sexual desire

Book 8, Number 3231:'Alqama reported:
While I was walking with 'Abdullah at Mina, 'Uthman happened to meet him.He stopped there and began to talk with him. Uthman said to him: Abu 'Abd al-Rahman, should we not marry you to a young girl who may recall to you some of the past of your bygone days; thereupon he said: If you say so, Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: 0 young men, those among you who can support a wife should marry, for it restrains eyes from casting (evil glances). and preserves one from immorality; but those who cannot should devote themselves to fasting for it is a means of controlling sexual desire.
Book 8, Number 3236:
Anas (Allah be pleased with him) reported that some of the Companions of Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) asked his (the Prophet's) wives about the acts that he performed in private.Someone among them (among his Companions) said: I will not marry women; someone among them said: I will not eat meat; and someone among them said: I will not lie down in bed.He (the Holy Prophet) praised Allah and glorified Him, and said: What has happened to these people that they say so and so, whereas I observe prayer and sleep too; I observe fast and suspend observing them; I marry women also?And he who turns away from my Sunnah, he has no relation with Me

Best to their wives

The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “The most perfect of the believers in faith is he who is the best of them in conduct, and the best of you in conduct are those who are best to their wives.” [Tirmidhi]

The Prophet's Last Sermon This sermon was delivered on the Ninth Day of Dhul Hijjah 10 A.H. in the ‘Uranah valley of Mount Arafat’ (in Mecca).________________________________________After praising, and thanking Allah he said:
“O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and TAKE THESE WORDS TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY.
O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your LORD, and that HE will indeed reckon your deeds. ALLAH has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore all interest obligation shall henceforth be waived. Your capital, however, is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. Allah has Judged that there shall be no interest and that all the interest due to Abbas ibn ‘Abd’al Muttalib (Prophet’s uncle) shall henceforth be waived…
Beware of Satan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.
O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah’s trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with any one of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste.
O People, listen to me in earnest, worship ALLAH, say your five daily prayers (Salah), fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your wealth in Zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.
All mankind is from Adam and Hawa, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves.
Remember, one day you will appear before ALLAH and answer your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.O People, NO PROPHET OR APOSTLE WILL COME AFTER ME AND NO NEW FAITH WILL BE BORN. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the QURAN and my example, the SUNNAH and if you follow these you will never go astray.All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness,
O ALLAH, that I have conveyed your message to your people”.
OH ALLAH! Make useful for me what You taught meand teach me knowledge that will be useful to me! (Aameen)
Guiding one soul to knowledge and faith is a momentous achievement. It is what will earn us great blessings...

Takes a bath on Friday

[Bukhari Vol. 2 Bk. 13 Num. 33]
Narated By Salman Al-Farsi : Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said,"Anyone who takes a bath on Friday and cleans himself as much as he can and puts oil (on his hair) or scents himself; and then proceeds for the prayer and does not force his way between two persons (assembled in the mosque for the Friday prayer), and prays as... much as is written for him and remains quiet when the Imam delivers the Khutba, all his sins in between the present and the last Friday will be forgiven."

MOTHER WAS AN ANGEL

This story begins when I was a child: I was born poor. Often we hadn't enough to eat. Whenever we had some food, Mother often gave me her portion of rice. While she was transferring her rice into my bowl, she would say "Eat this rice, son! I'm not hungry."This was Mother's First Lie.
As I grew, Mother gave up her spare time to fish in a river near our house; she hoped that from the fish she caught, she could give me a little bit more nutritious food for my growth. Once she had caught just two fish, she would make fish soup. While I was eating the soup, mother would sit beside me and eat what was still left on the bone of the fish I had eaten; My heart was touched when I saw it. Once I gave the other fish to her on my chopstick but she immediately refused it and said, "Eat this fish, son! I don't really like fish." This was Mother's Second Lie. Then, in order to fund my education, Mother went to a Match Factory to bring home some used matchboxes which she filled with fresh matchsticks. . This helped her get some money to cover our needs. One wintry night I awoke to find Mother filling the matchboxes by candlelight. So I said, "Mother, go to sleep; it's late: you can continue working tomorrow morning." Mother smiled and said "Go to sleep, son! I'm not tired." This was Mother's Third Lie When I had to sit my Final Examination, Mother accompanied me.. After dawn, Mother waited for me for hours in the heat of the sun. When the bell rang, I ran to meet her.. Mother embraced me and poured me a glass of tea that she had prepared in a thermos. The tea was not as strong as my Mother's love, Seeing Mother covered with perspiration; I at once gave her my glass and asked her to drink too. Mother said "Drink, son! I'm not thirsty!". This was Mother's Fourth Lie. After Father's death, Mother had to play the role of a single parent. She held on to her former job; she had to fund our needs alone. Our family's life was more complicated. We suffered from starvation. Seeing our family's condition worsening, my kind Uncle who lived near my house came to help us solve our problems big and small. Our other neighbors saw that we were poverty stricken so they often advised my mother to marry again. But Mother refused to remarry saying "I don't need love." This was Mother's Fifth Lie. After I had finished my studies and gotten a job, it was time for my old Mother to retire but she carried on going to the market every morning just to sell a few vegetables. I kept sending her money but she was steadfast and even sent the money back to me. She said, "I have enough money." That was Mother's Sixth Lie. I continued my part-time studies for my Master's Degree. Funded by the American Corporation for which I worked, I succeeded in my studies. With a big jump in my salary, I decided to bring Mother to enjoy life in America but Mother didn't want to bother her son; she said to me "I'm not used to high living." That was Mother's Seventh Lie In her dotage, Mother was attacked by cancer and had to be hospitalized. Now living far across the ocean, I went home to visit Mother who was bedridden after an operation. Mother tried to smile but I was heartbroken because she was so thin and feeble but Mother said, "Don't cry, son! I'm not in pain." That was Mother's Eighth Lie. Telling me this, her eighth lie, she died.
YES, MOTHER WAS AN ANGEL!
For those of you who are lucky to be still blessed with your Mom's presence on Earth, this story is beautiful. For those who aren't so blessed, this is even more beautiful.

Some Tips on Dua

First off, make sure you have both ikhlaas and i'tibaa - sincerity in intention and correction of action. Is your intention truly to bring this person closer to the truth? Or is it to prove him wrong? Or to show off your oratory skills? Make sure your intention is solely for the pleasure of Allah. To bring this person closer to the truth and to guide him to the deen of Allah, al-Islam. And make sure you are performing this daawah in the correct manner, at the proper place and time.
- Know what you're talking about. Make sure you have a sound, deep knowledge of what you say. Remember that Rasulullah, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, promised a seat in the Hell fire for whoever says a lie about him. Make sure what you say is absolutely correct. Be honest if you don't know. If you do not have a solid knowledge of what you are saying, your contribution may be negative instead of positive.
- Have complete faith in what you're saying with no doubt. It is said that what comes from the mouth goes to the ear, but what comes from the heart goes to the heart. The Arabic saying goes, if you do not have it, you cannot give it. If you don't truly believe something, you can't get someone else to. Your sincerity and certainty in your faith plays a large part in your successfulness at daawah.
- Practice what you preach. The best daawah is by way of example. Don't discuss the importance of truth and honesty in Islam when you lie and cheat constantly. Make sure your actions express the beautiful beliefs and commands of Islam. Hypocricy turns people away.
- Don't compromise Islam or it's beliefs. Don't feel the need to hedge around the truth because it will turn people away. Can men have four wives? Why can't we date? Why don't we accept homosexuality? Don't be apologetic about certain aspects of Islam. Explain it in a way people can understand, but don't change it or act like it's incorrect or archaic.

Do not become angry

Do not become angry. Don't let people effect you or cause you to change your conduct. Have adab always. If someone refuses to hear you out, walk away. Don't sink to their level. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says what means in the Quran, "Hold to forgiveness; command what is right; but turn away from the ignorant". He subhanahu wa ta'ala also says what means, "And when they hear vain talk, they turn away therefrom and say: 'To us our deeds, and to you yours; peace be to you: we seek not the ignorant.' It is true thou wilt not be able to guide every one whom thou lovest; but Allah guides those whom He will and He knows best those who receive guidance." Don't waste your time or energy with those who refuse to listen.
- Use proper functions. Go to interfaith programs and open discussions.
- Stay away from missionaries. This cannot be emphasized enough. Their goal is to take your faith apart and cause you to doubt. Leave the missionaries to those who are trained to deal with them. Missionaries have been trained to seem friendly and willing to learn on the outside, when their sole goal and objective is to cause you to reject Islam. Do not talk to missionaries. Do not open a discussion of Islam with them. Do not visit their sites. Do not waste your time with them. Your time can be used in a much more beneficial way than trying to argue with someone who has been trained to cause you to doubt.
- Don't insult the other person's faith. No matter how tempting it would be to talk about the errors and inconsistancies in other people's beliefs, don't do it. It offends people, and will possibly give them a bad impression of Islam. Talk about how Islam is different, and in that perhaps exposing the other belief's errors, but do not openly insult another person's faith. Be respectful. A daawah horror story: a Muslim was speaking at a local high school, and began his speech with: "You're all going to Hell." With that, he lost his whole audience before he even started his speech.

Milk mixed with water

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 774Narrated Sahl bin Sad:
A drink (milk mixed with water) was brought to the Prophet who drank some of it while a boy was sitting on his right and old men on his left. The Prophet said to the boy, "If you permit me, I'll give (the rest of the drink to) these old men first." The boy said, "I will not give preference to any one over me as regards my share from you, O Allah's Apostle!" The Prophet then put that container in the boy's hand. (See Hadith No. 541).

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 777Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle owed a man some debt (and that man demanded it very harshly).

He then added, "Buy (a camel) of the same age and give it to him." They said, "We cannot get except a camel of an older age than that of his."

No one should go ahead of the Prophet." The Prophet said to him, "Sell it to me." 'Umar said to the Prophet "It is for you." So, he bought it and said, "O 'Abdullah! It is for you, and you can do with it what you like."

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 783Narrated Ibn Umar:

Once the Prophet went to the house of Fatima but did not enter it. 'Ali came and she told him about that. When 'All asked the Prophet about it, he said, "I saw a (multi-colored) decorated curtain on her door. I am not interested in worldly things." 'Ali went to Fatima and told her about it. Fatima said, "I am ready to dispense with it in the way he suggests."

Enjoy the fragrance

[Sahih Bukhari]
Rasul Allah (PBUH) said: "The example of a good companion and a bad one is the bearer of musk and the worker on the fires. A bearer of musk would give you some, you might buy some from him, or you might enjoy the fragrance of his musk. The worker on the fires, on the other hand, might spoil your clothes with sparks from his bellows, or you get a bad smell from him."

Men choose women for four reasons

Abu Hurairah(RAD) the companion of Holy Prophet (AW)related that the Prophet Muhammad(AW) said: “Men choose women for four reasons: for their money, for their rank, for their beauty and for their religion, but marry one who is religious and you will succeed” (Bukhari, Muslim).

Abu Hurairah RA relates that Nabi Muhammad SAW said:
"Allah Ta'ala has mercy on a person who stands up at night to perform Tahajjud and also awaken his wife. If she does not wake up, he sprinkles water on her face. And Allah Ta'ala has mercy on a woman who stands up for Tahajjud and also awakens her husband. If he does not wake up, she sprinkles water on his face." (Abu Dawud and Mishkaat)

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 787Narrated 'Abdur-Rahman bin Abu Bakr:
We were one-hundred and thirty persons accompanying the Prophet who asked us whether anyone of us had food. There was a man who had about a Sa of wheat which was mixed with water then. A very tall pagan came driving sheep. The Prophet asked him, "Will you sell us (a sheep) or give it as a present?" He said, "I will sell you (a sheep)." The Prophet bought a sheep and it was slaughtered. The Prophet ordered that its liver and other abdominal organs be roasted. By Allah, the Prophet gave every person of the one-hundred-and-thirty a piece of that; he gave all those of them who were present; and kept the shares of those who were absent.The Prophet then put its meat in two huge basins and all of them ate to their fill, and even then more food was left in the two basins which were carried on the camel (or said something like it).

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 788Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
Umar saw a silken cloak over a man for sale and requested the Prophet to buy it in order to wear it on Fridays and while meeting delegates. The Prophet said, "This is worn by the one who will have no share in the Hereafter." Later on Allah's Apostle got some silken cloaks similar to that one, and he sent one to 'Umar. 'Umar said to the Prophet "How can I wear it, while you said about it what you said?" The Prophet said,"I have not given it to you to wear, but to sell or t

Went to bed

Sahih bukhari: Vol 7, Book71, Num 644:Narrated 'Aisha:
Whenever Allah's Apostle went to bed, he used to recite Surat-al-Ikhlas, Surat-al-Falaq and Surat-an-Nas and then blow on his palms and pass them over his face and those parts of his body that his hands could reach. And when he fell ill, he used to order me to do like that for him.

Keep good relations

My mother came to me during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle and she was a pagan. I said to Allah's Apostle (seeking his verdict), "My mother has come to me and she desires to receive a reward from me, shall I keep good relations with her?" The Prophet said, "Yes, keep good relation with her. "

When the emigrants came Medina

Gifts Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 799 Narrated Ibn Shihab Az-Zuhri:
Anas bin Malik said, "When the emigrants came Medina, they had nothing whereas the Ansar had land and property. The Ansar gave them their land on condition that the emigrants would give them half the yearly yield and work on the land and provide the necessaries for cultivation." His (i.e. Anas's mother who was also the mother of 'Abdullah bin Abu Talha, gave some date-palms to Allah' Apostle who gave them to his freed slave-girl (Um Aiman) who was also the mother of Usama bin Zaid. When the Prophet finished from the fighting against the people of Khaibar and returned to Medina, the emigrants returned to the Ansar the fruit gifts which the Ansar had given them. The Prophet also returned to Anas's mother the date-pallms. Allah's Apostle gave Um Aiman other trees from his garden in lieu of the old gift.

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 797 Narrated Abu Huraira:

Bath on Friday like the bath of Janaba

Assalamu Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu!!
This is a reminder to cut nails, have a ghusl and to read Surah Kahf.
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said, "Any person who takes a bath on Friday like the bath of Janaba and then goes for the prayer (in the first hour i.e. early), it is as if he had sacrificed a camel (in Allah's cause); and whoever goes in the second hour it is as if he had sacrificed a cow; and whoever goes in the third hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour then it is as if he had offered an egg. When the Imam comes out (i.e. starts delivering the Khutba), the angels present themselves to listen to the Khutba."
[Volume 2, Book 13, Number 6: Sahih Bukhari]

Divorcing his wife

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 802 Narrated Tawus:
That he was told by the most learned one amongst them (i.e. Ibn Abbas) that the Prophet went towards some land which was flourishing with vegetation and asked to whom it belonged.

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 47 :: Hadith 803 Narrated Abu Huraira:

Usama said, "Keep your wife, as we know nothing about her except good." Buraira said, "I cannot accuse her of any defect except that she is still a young girl who sleeps, neglecting her family's dough which the domestic goats come to eat (i.e. she was too simpleminded to deceive her husband)."

Uqba married the daughter of Abu Ihab bin Aziz, and then a woman came and said, "I suckled 'Uqba and his wife." 'Uqba said to her, "I do not know that you have suckled me, and you did not inform me." He then sent someone to the house of Abu Ihab to enquire about that but they did not know that she had suckled their daughter. Then 'Uqba went to the Prophet in Medina and asked him about it. The Prophet said to him, "How (can you keep your wife) after it has been said (that both of you were suckled by the same woman)?" So, he divorced her and she was married to another (husband).

Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 48 :: Hadith 809
Narrated 'Umar bin Al-Khattab:

People were (sometimes) judged by the revealing of a Divine Inspiration during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle but now there is no longer any more (new revelation). Now we judge you by the deeds you practice publicly, so we will trust and favor the one who does good deeds in front of us, and we will not call him to account about what he is really doing in secret, for Allah will judge him for that; but we will not trust or believe the one who presents to us with an evil deed even if he claims that his intentions were good.
