Sunan al-Nasa'i — The Book of Funerals

“When a person is put in his grave and his companions leave him, he hears the sound of their sandals. Two angels come to him, making him sit up, and say to him: ‘What did you say about this man (Muhammad)?’ As for the believer, he says: ‘I bear witness that he says: ‘I bear witness that he is the slave of Allah and His Messenger.’ It is said to him: ‘Look at your place in hell; Allah has replaced it for you with a place better than it.”’ The Messenger of Allah said: “Then he sees them both.” As for the disbeliever or the hypocrite, it is said to him: ‘What did you say about this man?’ He says: ‘I do not know; I used to say what the people said.’ It is said to him: ‘You did not understand and you did not follow those who had understanding.’ Then he is dealt a blow between his ears and the man utters a scream which everything near him hears, except for the two races.”’

“I had Sahur with Hudhaifah, then we went out to pray. When we came to the Masjid we prayed two Rakahs, then the Iqamah for prayer was said, and there was only a short time between them.” Abu Hurairah said : “The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Eat Sahur, for in Sahur there is blessing.”

“I had Sahur with Hudhaifah, then we went out to the Masjid. We prayed the two Rakahs of Fajr, then the Iqamah for prayer was made, and we prayed.”

“The parable of the miser and the one who gives in charity is that of two men wearing coats of mail with their hands tied to their collarbones. Every time the one who gives thinks of giving in charity, the (coat of mail) expands until it obliterates his traces, and every time the miser thinks of giving charity, every circle (of the coat of mail) contracts and sticks to him, and his hand is tied up to his collarbones.” I heard the Messenger of Allah say: “He tries to expand it, but he cannot.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Whoever is killed defending his wealth, he is a martyr.'”

A similar tradition has also been transmitted by Ibn ‘Abbas through a different chain of narrators.

When a man enters his house and mention Allah’s name on entering and on his food, the devil says: You have no place to spend the night and no evening meal; but when he enters without mentioning Allah’s name on entering, the devil says: You have found a place to spend the night, and when he does not mention Allah’s name at his food, he says: You have found a place to spend the night and an evening meal.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Soon there will appear disagreement and dissension in my people; there will be people who will be good in speech and bad in work. They recite the Qur’an, but it does not pass their collar-bones. They will swerve from the religion as an animal goes through the animal shot at. They will not return to it till the arrow comes back to its notch. They are worst of the people and animals. Happy is the one who kills them and they kill him. They call to the book of Allah, but they have nothing to do with it. He who fights against them will be nearer to Allah than them (the rest of the people). The people asked: What is their sign? He replied: They shave the head.

“The Messenger of Allah would fast Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays in one months, and Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in the next month.”

From Jabir that the Prophet (ﷺ) prohibited Al-Muhaqalah, Al-Muzabanah, Al-Mukhabarah, and Al-Mu’awamah, and he permitted it in the case of Al-‘Araya. This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

“In Paradise, there are a hundred levels, between every two levels is (the distance of) a hundred years.”

that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited this Ayah upon the Minbar: And make ready against them all you can of power (8:60). He said: “Verily! Power is shooting” – three times – “Verily! Allah will open the earth for you and suffice you with supplies, so let none of you forsake practicing with his arrows.”

“I saw ‘Ali performing ablution and he washed his feet up to the ankles, then he said: ‘I wanted to show you how your Prophet purified himself.'”

”The two parties to a transaction have the choice (of annulling it) so long as they have not yet parted.”

“The Prophet (ﷺ): ‘When anyone of you asks his neighbor for permission to fix a piece of wood to his wall, he should not refuse him. ‘When Abu Hurairah told them this, they lowered their heads, and when he saw them he said: ‘Why do I see you turning away from it? By Allah, I will force you to accept it.’ ”
