Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (Radhiallaho anha) reported:
Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said,
"The most evil of the people to Allah on the Day of Resurrection will be the man who consorts with his wife and then publicizes her secret.''
[Muslim]
Commentary:
Islam treats conjugal union as a sacred and secret act, both in social and moral terms. Indeed, the sanctity of conjugal rights contributes to the consolidation of moral norms and social cohesion. Yet, what passes between wife and husband on the consummation night is usually taken in a light vein in our societies. In the morning, both of them relate their sexual experience to their friends respectively. This is moral indecency which is incompatible with human dignity and civilized behaviour. This Hadith reckons it as a grave sin which must be eschewed. The bed-experience must be kept private by the married couple to the exclusion of a third person.

Secrecy of Private Matters
Thabit (Radhiallaho anha) reported:
Anas (Radhiallaho anha) said:
Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) came to me while I was playing with the boys. He greeted us and sent me on an errand. This delayed my return to my mother. When I came to her, she asked, "What detained you?'' I said; "Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) sent me on an errand.'' She asked, "What was it?'' I said, "It is a secret.'' My mother said; "Do not disclose to anyone the secret of Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam).'' Anas (Radhiallaho anha) said to Thabit (Radhiallaho anha): By Allah, were I to tell it to anyone I would have told you.
[Muslim]
Commentary:
Here, an emphasis has been laid on keeping a secret. When Anas (Radhiallaho anha) told his mother about the cause of secrecy, she refrained from insisting that the secret should be disclosed to her. Rather, she lent support to her son's standpoint and advised him to conceal the secret. To be sure, it is part of moral teaching that we should keep the secrets of friends in our hearts. Unless we receive a go-ahead from a friend, we must not make his secret public.

A good Supplication (Dua) to heal sickness
Ibn `Abbas (Radhiallahu anhu) reported:
The Prophet (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said, "He who visits a sick person who is not on the point of death and supplicates seven times:
As'alullahal-`Azima Rabbal-`Arshil-`Azimi, an yashfiyaka
(I beseech Allah the Great, the Rubb of the Great Throne, to heal you),
Allah will certainly heal him from that sickness.''
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi]
Commentary:
There is always a great certainty that Allah will respond to a supplication which springs from a sincere, veracious heart. One should, therefore, pray for a patient with full conviction and reassurance of heart. Moreover, the Prophet's prayers have special effect and grace and therefore their original wordings should be uttered.
