The search of knowledge is an obligation laid on every Muslim.
In compassion and grace be like the sunin concealing others faults be like nightin anger and fury be like the deadin modesty and humility be like the earthin tolerance be like the seaeither appear as you are, or be as you appear
Every good deed is charity whether you come to your brother's assistance or just greet him with a smile.
If anyone withholds grain for forty days thereby desiring a high price, has renounced God and God has renounced him.
The man who withholds goods is evil. If God lowers prices he is grieved, and if He raises then he is happy.
When you visit an invalid tell him to make a supplication for you, for his supplication is like of the angels.
Gold is to be paid by gold, silver by silver, wheat by wheat, barley by barley, dates by dates and salt by salt, like for like, payment being made on the spot. If anyone gives more or asks for more, he has dealt in usury. The receiver and the giver are equally guilty.No body which has been nourished with what is unlawful will enter paradise.
Flesh which has grown out of what is unlawful will not enter paradise, but hell is more fitting for all flesh which has grown out of what is unlawful.
If anyone buys a garment for ten dirhams among which one is unlawfully acquired, God most high will not accept prayer from him as long as he wears it.
Adhere to truth, for truth leads to good deeds and good deeds leads him who does them to paradise. Falsehood is wickedness and wickedness leads to hell.
A man's true wealth here after is the good he does in this world to his fellow man.
If people knew what I know about the dangers of being alone, no rider would travel alone at night.
He who remembers his Lord and he who does not are like the living and dead.
That which is lawful is plain and that which is unlawful is plain and between the two if them are doubtful matters about which not many people know. Thus he who avoids doubtful matters clears himself in regard to his religion and his honour, but he who falls into doubtful matters falls into that which is unlawful, like the shepherd who pastures around the sanctuary, all but grazing therein. Truly every king has a sanctuary, and truly Allah's sanctuary is His prohibitions. Truly in the body there is a morsel of flesh which, if diseased, all of it is diseased. Truly it is the heart.
Nothing but supplication averts the decree, and nothing but righteousness increases life.
He who throws himself from a mountain and kills himself will be thrown down in the fire of hell and remain in it for ever and ever; he who sips poison and kills himself will have his poison in his hand will sip it for ever and ever in the fire of hell.
If anyone gets up from where he has been sitting and comes back, he has no right to it.
A man must not make another get up from his place and then occupy it himself, but you should spread out and make room.
If you spend (to help others), O son of Adam! I [God] shall spend on you.
A believer's soul is attached to his debt till it is paid.
If anyone guarantees me what is between his jaws and what is between his legs (i.e. he should not commit fornication), I shall guarantee him paradise.
If you guarantee me six things on your part, I shall guarantee you paradise: speak the truth when you talk, keep a promise when you make it, when you are trusted with something fulfill your trust, avoid sexual immorality, lower your eyes and restrain your hand from injustice.
There are three signs of a hypocrite: when he speaks he speaks lies, when he makes a promise he breaks it, and when he is trusted he betrays his trust.
Shedding of blood will be the first matter about which judgment will be given on the Day of Resurrection.
Avoid the seven noxious things. (1) Associating anything with God, (2) magic, (3) killing one whom God has declared inviolate without a just cause, (4) devouring usury, (5) consuming the property of an orphan, running back from the battlefield and, (7) slandering chaste women who are believers but indiscreet.
If you disclose your alms, even then it is well done, but if you keep them secret, and give them to the poor, then that is better still for you; and this wipes off from you some of your evil deeds.
Those who are nearest to God are they who are first to give a salutation.
There are six good qualities which one believer should display to another; he should visit him when he is ill, be present when he dies, accept his invitation when he gives one, salute him when he meets him, say 'God have mercy on you' when he sneezes and act sincerely towards him whether he is absent or present.
One who is riding should salute one who is walking, one who is walking should salute one who is sitting and a small company should salute a large one.
As you will be so will you have rulers put over you.
Righteousness is good morality, and wrongdoing is that which wavers in your soul and which you dislike people finding out about.
Righteousness is good character, and sin is that which revolves in your heart and which you do not want people to know.
Reviling a Muslim is disobedience to God, and fighting with him is infidelity.
He who grants a respite to one who is in straightened circumstances or who remits his debt, will be saved by God from the anxieties of the Day of Resurrection.
A time is coming to mankind when only the receiver of usury will remain and if he does not receive it, some of its vapour will reach him.
The man who is most hateful to God is the one who quarrels and disputes most.
The one who would have the worst position in God's sight on the Day of Resurrection would be a learned man who did not profit from his learning.
The whole world is to be enjoyed, but the best thing in the world is a pious woman.
