Lesson - 12

About Visiting a Sick
Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) as saying: There are five qualities which a Muslim should display to his brother: return of salutation, response to the one who sneezes, acceptance of the invitation, paying sick visit to a patient, and accompanying the funeral.
(Sunan Abi Dawud, Book 43, Hadith 258)

About Neighbours
Narrated Aisha: I said, "O Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him)! I have two neighbors and would like to know to which of them I should give presents." He replied, "To the one whose door is nearer to you."
(Bukhari Vol. 3, Book 35, Hadith 460)

About Worldly Things
Narrated Ibn `Umar: Once the Prophet (peace be upon him) went to the house of Fatima but did not enter it. `Ali came and she told him about that. When 'All asked the Prophet (peace be upon him) about it, he said, "I saw a (multicolored) 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." The Prophet (peace be upon him) ordered her to send it to such-and such needy people."
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 3, Book 51, Hadith 46)

About Virtues
Anas b. Malik reported: I saw Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) during the time of the afternoon prayer and the people asking for water for performing ablution which they did not find. (A small quantity) of water was brought to Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) and he placed his hand in that vessel and commanded people to perform ablution. I saw water spouting from his fingers and the people performing ablution until the last amongst them performed it.
(Sahih Muslim, Book 43, Hadith 5)

About Friday Khutba
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "When it is a Friday, the angels stand at the gate of the mosque and keep on writing the names of the persons coming to the mosque in succession according to their arrivals. The example of the one who enters the mosque in the earliest hour is that of one offering a camel (in sacrifice). The one coming next is like one offering a cow and then a ram and then a chicken and then an egg respectively. When the Imam comes out (for Jumua prayer) they (i.e. angels) fold their papers and listen to the Khutba."
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 2, Book 11, Hadith 53)

About your Mother
Ibn Salamah As-Sulami narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "I enjoin each one to honor his mother, I enjoin each one to honor his mother,I enjoin each one to honor his mother(three times), I enjoin each one to honor his guardian who is taking care of him, even if he is causing him some annoyance."
(Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 5, Book 33, Hadith 1)

About Walking to Prayer
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'When one of you performs ablution and does it well, then he comes to the mosque with no other motive but prayer and not seeking anything other than the prayer, he does not take one step but Allah raises him in status one degree thereby, and takes away one of his sins, until he enters the mosque. When he enters the mosque he is in a state of prayer so long as he is waiting for the prayer.'"
(Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 1, Book 4, Hadith 40)

About Oaths and Vows
Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The Hell Fire will keep on saying: 'Are there anymore (people to come)?' Till the Lord of Power and Honor will put His Foot over it and then it will say, 'Qat! Qat! (sufficient! sufficient!) by Your Power and Honor. And its various sides will come close to each other (i.e., it will contract)."
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 8, Book 83, Hadith 39)

About Telling the Truth
'Abdullah b. Mas'ud reported Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) as saying: Telling of truth is a virtue and virtue leads to Paradise and the servant who endeavours to tell the truth is recorded as truthful, and lie is obscenity and obscenity leads to Hell-Fire, and the servant who endeavours to tell a lie is recorded as a liar. Ibn Abu Shaiba reported this from Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him).
(Sahih Muslim, Book 45, Hadith 135)

About Reward of Deeds
Narrated 'Umar bin Al-Khattab: I heard Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) 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."
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 1, Book 1, Hadith 1)
