قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ أَحَدًا قَالَ «اتَّقِ اللَّهَ ثُمَّ اسْتَقِمْ» قَالَ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالَ فَأَشَارَ إِلَى لِسَانِهِ

✧ I said: O Messenger of Allah, command me with something I may hold fast to. He said: 'Say: My Lord is Allah, then remain upright.' He said: I said: O Prophet of Allah, what do you fear most for me? He said: Then the Prophet of Allah ﷺ took hold of his tongue, then said: 'This.'

Sunan ad-Darimi 2756Hasan
أَنَّهُ قِيلَ لَهُ مَا الْغِيبَةُ؟ قَالَ «ذِكْرُكَ أَخَاكَ بِمَا يَكْرَهُ» قِيلَ وَإِنْ كَانَ فِي أَخِي مَا أَقُولُ؟ قَالَ «فَإِنْ كَانَ فِيهِ فَقَدِ اغْتَبْتَهُ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ فَقَدْ بَهَتَّهُ»

Sunan ad-Darimi 2757Sahih
إِنَّ شَرَّ الرَّوَايَا رَوَايَا الْكَذِبِ وَلَا يَصْلُحُ مِنَ الْكَذِبِ جِدٌّ وَلَا هَزْلٌ وَلَا يَعِدُ الرَّجُلُ ابْنَهُ ثُمَّ لَا يُنْجِزُ لَهُ إِنَّ الصِّدْقَ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْبِرِّ وَإِنَّ الْبِرَّ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَإِنَّ الْكَذِبَ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْفُجُورِ وَإِنَّ الْفُجُورَ يَهْدِي إِلَى النَّارِ وَإِنَّهُ يُقَالُ لِلصَّادِقِ صَدَقَ وَبَرَّ وَيُقَالُ لِلْكَاذِبِ كَذَبَ وَفَجَرَ وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَصْدُقُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ صِدِّيقًا وَيَكْذِبُ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ كَذَّابًا
✧ Indeed, the worst of riding beasts are the riding beasts of falsehood. Neither seriousness nor jest is acceptable in lying, nor should a man promise his son something and then not fulfill it. Verily, truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. Verily, lying leads to wickedness, and wickedness leads to the Fire. It is said of the truthful one: 'He spoke the truth and acted righteously,' and it is said of the liar: 'He lied and acted wickedly.' A man continues to speak the truth until he is recorded with Allah as a veracious one (ṣiddīq), and he continues to lie until he is recorded with Allah as a liar.

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "O you people! Indeed Allah is Tayyib (good) and he does not accept but what is good. And indeed Allah ordered the believers with what He ordered the Messengers. He ﷺ said: 'O you Messengers! Eat of the good things and do righteous deeds. Verily I am well acquainted with what you do (23:51).' And He said: 'O you who believe! Eat from the good things We have provided you (2:172).' He said: "And he mentioned a man: 'Who is undertaking a long journey, whose hair is dishevelled and he is covered with dust. He raises his hands to the heavens and says: "O Lord! O Lord!" Yet his food is from the unlawful, his drink is from the unlawful, his clothing is from the unlawful, and he was nourished by the unlawful. So how can that be accepted?'"

✧ He mentioned prayer one day and said, "Whoever guards it, it will be for him a light, a proof, and a salvation from the Fire on the Day of Resurrection. And whoever does not guard it, it will not be for him a light, nor a salvation, nor a proof, and on the Day of Resurrection he will be with Qārūn, Pharaoh, Hāmān, and Ubayy b. Khalaf."

✧ I had a sharp tongue toward my family, and it did not go beyond them to others. I asked the Prophet ﷺ, and he said, "Where are you with regard to seeking forgiveness? Indeed, I seek forgiveness from Allah one hundred times every day."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَرَأَ {هُوَ أَهْلُ التَّقْوَى وَأَهْلُ الْمَغْفِرَةِ} [المدثر 56] قَالَ قَالَ رَبُّكُمْ أَنَا أَهْلٌ أَنْ أُتَّقَى فَمَنِ اتَّقَانِي فَأَنَا أَهْلٌ أَنْ أَغْفِرَ لَهُ
✧ From the Prophet ﷺ, that he recited, "He is the owner of piety and forgiveness" [Al-Muddathir 56]. He said: "Your Lord says: I am the owner of piety, so whoever fears Me, I am worthy to forgive him."
Sunan ad-Darimi 2767No grade recorded
إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ آيَةً لَوْ أَخَذَ بِهَا النَّاسُ لَكَفَتْهُمْ {فَإِذَا بَلَغْنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَأَمْسِكُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ فَارِقُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَأَشْهِدُوا ذَوَىْ عَدْلٍ مِنْكُمْ وَأَقِيمُوا الشَّهَادَةَ لِلَّهِ ذَلِكُمْ يُوعَظُ بِهِ مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْأخِرِ وَمَنْ يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مَخْرَجًا}
✧ Indeed I know a verse which, if the people were to act upon it, would suffice them: {Then when they have reached their term, either retain them according to what is acceptable or part with them according to what is acceptable. And take as witnesses two just men from among you and establish the testimony for Allah. That is instructed to whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day. And whoever fears Allah, He will make for him a way out} [al-Ṭalāq: 2].

He said, "It is not that. But when death comes to the believer, he is given glad tidings of Allah's pleasure and honor, so nothing is more beloved to him than what is ahead of him; thus he loves to meet Allah, and Allah loves to meet him. And when death comes to the disbeliever, he is given tidings of Allah's punishment and penalty, so nothing is more hateful to him than what is ahead of him; thus he hates to meet Allah, and Allah hates to meet him."

إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ رَحِيمٌ مَنْ هَمَّ بِحَسَنَةٍ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةً فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كتِبَتْ لَهُ عَشْرًا إِلَى سَبْعِمِائَةٍ ضِعْفٍ إِلَى أَضْعَافٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَمَنْ هَمَّ بِسَيِّئَةٍ فَلَمْ يَعْمَلْهَا كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةً فَإِنْ عَمِلَهَا كُتِبَتْ وَاحِدَةً أَوْ يَمْحُوهَا وَلَا يَهْلِكُ عَلَى اللَّهِ إِلَّا هَالِكٌ
✧ Indeed, your Lord is merciful. Whoever intends a good deed but does not do it, a good deed is written for him; if he does it, it is written for him tenfold, up to seven hundredfold, up to many multiples. Whoever intends an evil deed but does not do it, a good deed is written for him; if he does it, it is written as one, or He wipes it away. None is ruined before Allah except the ruined.

O son of Adam, if you sin until your sin reaches the clouds of the sky, then you seek My forgiveness, I forgive you, and I do not mind.»

✧ I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: When Allah gathers the servants on one plain, a caller will call out: Let every people join what they used to worship. So every people will join what they used to worship, and the people will remain as they are. Then He will come to them and say: What is the matter with the people? They have gone, and you are still here? They will say: We are waiting for our Lord. He will say: Do you recognize Him? They will say: If He makes Himself known to us, we will recognize Him. Then He will uncover His shin to them, and they will fall down in prostration. That is the saying of Allah, Exalted is He: {The Day the shin will be uncovered and they are invited to prostration but they will not be able} [al-Qalam 42]. Every hypocrite will remain and will not be able to prostrate, then He will lead them to Paradise.

✧ When Allah gathers the first and the last and judges between them and finishes the judgment, the believers say, "Our Lord has judged between us, so who will intercede for us with our Lord?" They say, "Go to Adam, for Allah created him with His hand and spoke to him." They come to him and say, "Arise and intercede for us with our Lord." Adam says, "You should go to Nuh." They come to Nuh, and he directs them to Ibrahim. They come to Ibrahim, and he directs them to Musa. They come to Musa, and he directs them to 'Isa. They come to 'Isa, and he says, "I will direct you to the unlettered Prophet." He said, "They come to me, and Allah ﷻ permits me to stand before Him. My seat emits the finest fragrance anyone has ever smelled, until I come to my Lord. He will grant me intercession and make for me a light from the hair of my head to the toenail of my foot. At that point, the disbelievers say to Iblis, 'The believers have found someone to intercede for them, so you arise and intercede for us with your Lord, for you are the one who led us astray.'" He said, "He arises, and his seat emits the foulest odor anyone has ever smelled. Then Hell is magnified, and at that point he says, {And Satan will say when the matter has been decided, 'Indeed, Allah promised you a promise of truth, and I promised you, but I betrayed you'} [Ibrahim 22] to the end of the verse."

✧ There was a servant among the servants of Allah who did not practice any religion for Allah. He remained until a lifetime had passed and a lifetime remained. He realized that he had not stored up any good with Allah, so he called his sons and said, "What kind of father do you know me to be?" They said, "The best, O our father." He said, "Indeed, I will not leave with any of you any wealth that is mine except that I take it, or you must do what I command you." He said, "He took a covenant from them, by my Lord." He said, "As for me, when I die, take me and burn me with fire until I become charcoal, then crush me, then scatter me in the wind." He said, "They did that to him, by the Lord of Muhammad, when he died. Then he was brought back in the best form he had ever been, and was presented to his Lord. He said, 'What made you do what you did with the fire?' He said, 'Fear of You, O Lord.' He said, 'I hear that you were indeed fearful.' He said, 'He was forgiven.'"

Recite, if you wish: “Every soul will taste death, and you will only be given your full reward on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has truly succeeded. And the life of this world is nothing but the enjoyment of delusion” (Al ʿImrān 185).

✧ We said, “O Messenger of Allah, what is Paradise built of?” He said, “A brick of gold and a brick of silver; its mortar is fragrant musk, its pebbles are rubies and pearls, and its soil is saffron. Whoever enters it will abide eternally; he will enjoy bliss and never suffer; their youth will not fade and their clothes will not wear out.”

✧ The Gardens of Firdaws are four: two of gold—their ornaments, vessels, and whatever is in them—and two of silver—their ornaments, vessels, and whatever is in them. Nothing stands between the people and looking at their Lord except the veil of pride over His face in the Gardens of ʿAdn. These rivers gush forth from the Gardens of ʿAdn into a hollow, then afterwards rise up as rivers. ʿAbdullāh said: jawbah means what the earth is pierced through for.

يُلْقَى فِي النَّارِ أَهْلُهَا وَتَقُولُ هَلْ مِنْ مَزِيدٍ هَلْ مِنْ مَزِيدٍ ثَلَاثًا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهَا رَبُّهَا تعالى فَيَضَعَ قَدَمَهُ عَلَيْهَا فَتَنْزَوِي وَتَقُولُ قَطْ قَطْ قَطْ
✧ Its inhabitants will be thrown into the Fire, and it will say, 'Is there any more? Is there any more? Is there any more?' three times, until its Lord, Exalted is He, comes to it and places His foot upon it, and it shrinks back and says, 'Enough, enough, enough.'
