Words of the Prophet

The Teaching of Prophet Mohammad in Hadith

Prophet Mohammad tells us a parable in his teaching how Allah only punishes the arrogant and tyrants but protects the weak and rewards the righteous. The Prophet said:

“Paradise and the (Hell) Fire argued, and the (Hell) Fire said, “I have been given the privilege of receiving the arrogant and the tyrants.” Paradise said, “What is the matter with me? Why do only the weak and the humble among people enter me?”

On that, Allah said to Paradise: “You are My Mercy, which I bestow on whomever I wish of my servants.” Then Allah said to the (Hell) Fire, “You are my punishment by which I excruciate whomever I wish of my slaves. Each of you will have its fill.”

As for the (Hell) Fire, it will not be filled till Allah puts His Foot over it whereupon it will say, “Enough! Enough! Enough!” At that time it will be filled, and its different parts will come closer to each other; and Allah will not wrong any of His creatures. As regards Paradise, Allah will create further creatures to fill it with.” 

(narrated by Abu’huraira, From Bukhari Hadith, Vol V, no 4850)

Jarir Ibn Abdullah narrated:

“We were sitting with the Prophet on the fourteenth night (of a lunar month), when he (the Prophet) looked at the full moon and said:

“You will see your Lord as you see this moon, with no difficulty in looking at Him. So, whoever can, should not miss performing prayers before sunrise (Fajr) and before sunset (Asr)” 

Then the Prophet recited:

“And celebrate the praises of thy Lord before the rising of the sun and before (its) setting.” (Quran 50:39)

(narrated by Jarir Ibn Abdullah, From Bukhari Hadith Vol V no 4851)

Words of Allah in Hadith

O, My Servants

I have forbidden oppression for Myself 

and have made it forbidden among you, 

so do not oppress one another.

O, My Servants

All of you are astray 

except for those I have guided, 

so seek guidance from Me 

and I shall guide you.

O, My Servants

All of you are naked 

except for those I have clothed, 

so seek clothing from Me 

and I shall clothe you.

O, My Servants

All of you are hungry 

except for those I have fed,

 so seek food from Me 

and I shall feed you.

O, My Servants

You commit sins by night and day, 

and I forgive all sins, 

so seek forgiveness from Me 

and I shall forgive you.

O, My Servants

You will never attain harming Me, 

so as to harm Me, 

nor will you ever attain benefiting Me, 

so as to benefit Me.

O, My Servants

Were the first of you and the last of you, 

the human of you and the jinn of you, 

to be as pious as the most pious heart 

of any one man amongst you, 

it would not increase My Kingdom in anything.

O, My Servants

Were the first of you and the last of you, 

the human of you and the jinn of you, 

to be as wicked as the most wicked heart

 of any one man amongst you, 

it would not decrease My Kingdom in anything.

O, My Servants

Were the first of you and the last of you, 

the human of you and the jinn of you, 

to gather in one place 

and make a request of Me, 

and I were to give everyone 

what he requested, 

it would not decrease 

what I have any more 

than a needle decreases the sea 

when put into it.

O, My Servants

It is your deeds that I charge you with 

and then recompense you for them, 

so whoever finds good 

then let him praise Allah. 

Whoever finds other than that, 

should blame no one else but himself.
