Ramadan: What are some nice Hadiths that give advice or inspiration?

Assalam Alaikum WaRahmatullah WaBarakatuh. The Prophet (saws) said :

► “Knowledge is acquired by seeking it, and patience is acquiring by striving to be patient. The one who strives to attain good will be given it, and the one who strives to protect himself from evil will be protected. (Narrated by al-Khateeb and others from the hadeeth of Abu’l-Darda’; classed as hasan by al-Albaani)

► “Ahead of you there lie days of patience, during which being patient will be like grasping a hot coal. The one who does good deeds then will have a reward like that of fifty men who do such deeds. – And someone else added – They said: O Messenger of Allaah, the reward of fifty of them? He said: “The reward of fifty of you.” (Narrated by Abu Dawood (4341); al-Tirmidhi (3085) and he said: it is a hasan hadeeth. It was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah 494)

► “Wealth does not decrease because of charity, and Allaah increases His slave in honour when he forgives others. And no one humbles himself before Allaah but Allaah will raise him (in status).” (Sahih Muslim 2588)

► "Islam began as something strange and will revert to being something strange, so glad tidings to the strangers.” It was said: Who are they, O Messenger of Allaah? He said: “Those who are righteous when the people are corrupt.” (Saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah 1273; the hadeeth is also narrated in Saheeh Muslim 145)

On the authority of Wabisa bin Mabad, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

I came to the messenger of Allah and he said: "You have come to ask about righteousness ?" . I said:" Yes." He said: "Consult your heart. Righteousness is that about which the soul feels tranquil and the heart feels tranquil, and wrongdoing is that which wavers in the soul and moves to and from in the breast even though people again and again have given you their legal opinion [in its favor]."

a good hadith transmetted from the Musnads of the two Imams, Ahmed bin Hanbal and Al-Darimi, with a good chain of authorities.

Wa alaykum assalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatahu

Walaikum Assalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

jazakallahu khairan daimann abadan!

for asking such a wonderful question!

i wish u read TWO hadith , which i ENSURE will change ur LIFE! insha'Allah

First i share the VERY FIRST hadith in Bukhari:

Bukhari :: Book 1 :: Volume 1 :: Hadith 1

Narrated 'Umar bin Al-Khattab:

I heard Allah's Apostle saying,

>>"The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. <<

So whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he emigrated for."

Muslim :: Book 20 : Hadith 4688

It has been narrated on the authority of Sulaiman b. Yasar who said: People dispersed from around Abu Huraira, and Natil, who was from the Syrians. said to him:

O Shaikh, relate (to us) a tradition you have heard from the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him).

He said: Yes. I heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) say: The first of men (whose case) will be decided on the Day of Judgment will be a man who died as a martyr. He shall be brought (before the Judgment Seat). Allah will make him recount His blessings (i. e. the blessings which He had bestowed upon him) and he will recount them (and admit having enjoyed them in his life). (Then) will Allah say: What did you do (to requite these blessings)?

He will say: I fought for Thee until I died as a martyr.

Allah will say: You have told a lie. You fought that you might be called a" brave warrior". And you were called so. (Then) orders will be passed against him and he will be dragged with his face downward and cast into Hell.

Then will be brought forward a man who acquired knowledge and imparted it (to others) and recited the Qur'an. He will be brought And Allah will make him recount His blessings and he will recount them (and admit having enjoyed them in his lifetime). Then will Allah ask: What did you do (to requite these blessings)?

He will say: I acquired knowledge and disseminated it and recited the Qur'an seeking Thy pleasure. Allah will say: You have told a lie. You acquired knowledge so that you might be called" a scholar," and you recited the Qur'an so that it might be said:" He is a Qari" and such has been said. Then orders will be passed against him and he shall be dragged with his face downward and cast into the Fire.

Then will be brought a man whom Allah had made abundantly rich and had granted every kind of wealth. He will be brought and Allah will make him recount His blessings and he will recount them and (admit having enjoyed them in his lifetime). Allah will (then) ask: What have you done (to requite these blessings)?

He will say: I spent money in every cause in which Thou wished that it should be spent. Allah will say: You are lying. You did (so) that it might be said about (You):" He is a generous fellow" and so it was said. Then will Allah pass orders and he will be dragged with his face downward and thrown into Hell.

*Ask urself this SIMPLE question:

if MARTYRS, GHANIs and SCHOLARs are going to be JUDGED like THIS,

what about US?

may Allah forgive our sins and help us maintaining good intentions all the time.

Ameen.

calamity that makes you turn to Allah is better for you than a blessing which makes you forget the remembrance of Allah.

(Ibn Taymiyah)

‎"Islam is like a Bird....The body is the love of Allah swt...The right wing is the Love of Jannah...and the left wing is the fear of Hell fire....and if you take away the body the wings have no use...(Ibn Taimiyah)

These 2 have Inspired me alott!!!

Walaikumusalam warahmatullahi wabarakatu. I shared this yesterday and im sharing it again.

Dear God,

I don't deserve to be in your Heaven

though, i'm not willing to face your Hellfire.

Please forgive all my sins and accept my repentance

as you are The Forgiver of big sins.

(In my language this doa continues)-

My sins are like sands scattered along the beach.

With your power, please forgive me, my Lord.

Oh God, please safe us all, from all the wrongdoings and disasters.

We are afraid, we really rely on you.

Strengthen our love towards you.

We are your servants who rely on your mercy.

Hadith Qudsi 34:

On the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) say: Allah the Almighty said:

O son of Adam,

so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me,

I shall forgive you for what you have done,

and I shall not mind.

O son of Adam,

were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky

and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me,

I would forgive you.

O son of Adam,

were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the earth

and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me,

I would bring you forgiveness nearly as great at it.

It was related by at-Tirmidhi (also by Ahmad ibn Hanbal). Its chain of authorities is sound.

By Misyari Rashid

Sometime we are too ashame or shy to admit our mistakes or sins, not only towards humans but even to God. Don't be. Allah love those who come to HIM. We have 5 or more chances daily. Do it and practice it. ;)

I'm reminding myself too;)

Salam

"Leave what makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt."1

The Prophet (peace be upon him) also said,

"Whoever avoids the doubtful matters clears himself in regard to his religion and his honor."2

Read Surah Rahman with meaning. It will really inspire you and give you patience.

And I also read Muhammad's (PBUH) last sermon to humankind.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “No misfortune or disease befalls a Muslim, no worry or grief or harm or distress – not even a thorn that pricks him – but Allah will expiate for some of his sins because of that.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5642) and Muslim (2573).

The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “How wonderful is the affair of the believer, for his affairs are all good, and this applies to no one but the believer. If something good happens to him, he is thankful for it and that is good for him. If something bad happens to him, he bears it with patience and that is good for him.” (Narrated by Muslim, 2999).

Al-Bukhaari (5971) and Muslim (2548) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: A man came to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: “O Messenger of Allaah, who is most deserving of my good company?” He said: “Your mother.” He said: “Then who?” He said: “Your mother.” He said: “Then who?” He said: “Your mother.” He said: “Then who?” He said: “Then your father.”

And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “I urge you to treat women well.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 331; Muslim, 1468.

And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The best of you is the one who is best to his wife, and I am the best of you to my wives.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 3895; Ibn Maajah, 1977; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.

The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) narrated that his Lord said: “My love is guaranteed for two who love one another for My sake; My love is guaranteed for two who visit one another for My sake; My love is guaranteed for two who help one another (financially) for My sake; My love is guaranteed to two who uphold ties with one another for My sake.”

Narrated by Ahmad, 4/236 and 5/236; al-Tanaasuh by Ibn Hibbaan, 3/338; the two ahaadeeth were classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb wa’l-Tarheeb, 3019, 3020, 3021.

It was narrated from ‘Abd al-Rahmaan ibn ‘Awf (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

“If a woman does her five (daily prayers), fasts her month (Ramadaan), guards her chastity and obeys her husband, it will be said to her: Enter whichever of the gates of Paradise you want.”

Narrated by Ahmad (1/191). The editors of al-Musnad said: It is hasan li ghayrihi (hasan because of corroborating evidence). It was classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb (1932).
