Each person's every joint must perform a charity every day

An-Nawawi’s Hadith No.26

On the authority of Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:

"Each person's every joint must do a charity every day the Sun comes up:

to act justly between two people is a charity;

to help a man with his mount, lifting him onto it or hoisting up his belongings onto it is a charity;

a good word is a charity;

every step you take to perform prayers is a charity

and removing a harmful thing from the road is a charity."

Allah turns with mercy to him who turns to Him in repentance

Ibn 'Abbas and Anas bin Malik (Radhiallahu anhu) reported:

Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said:

"If a son of Adam were to own a valley full of gold, he would desire to have two. Nothing can fill his mouth except the earth (of the grave). Allah turns with mercy to him who turns to Him in repentance".

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary:
This Hadith deals with man's greed and his lust for material wealth. Only the person who has a perfect Faith can save himself from it.

Minor sins between Friday Prayers will be forgiven

Abu Huraira (Radhiallahu anhu) reported:

Allah's Messenger (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) as saying:

"He who performed ablution well, then came to friday prayer, listened to the Khutbah (the sermon), kept silence all (his sins) between that time and the next friday would be forgiven with three days extra, and he who touched pebbles caused an interruption."

(Sahih Muslim - Book #004 - Hadith #1868)


Commentary:
1. "If anyone performs ablution properly'' means does it in accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH), that is to say, one should not exceed the prescribed limits, nor should one use water extravagantly. One should wash every organ of the body involved in "Wudu'', at the most for three times. One should neither use water in excess of the need nor leave any of the organs unwashed or partly washed in Wudu'. This Hadith also makes it evident that it is more meritorious to perform Wudu' at home.

2.Sins of ten days are pardoned because every virtue has at least ten-times reward. Here sins means minor sins as the major ones are not forgiven without sincere repentance nor are Huquq-ul-`Ibad i.e., (rights of people) forgiven without compensation.

3.One should listen to the Khutbah quietly with full attention. One must avoid toying with anything (such as straws, one's watch, etc.) as this is a useless exercise, which will doubtlessly deprive one of the Friday reward.

The believers will see Allah in the hereafter as we see the full moon

Jarir bin `Abdullah Al-Bajali (Radhiallahu anhu) reported:

We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) when he looked at the full moon and observed:

"You will see your Rubb in the Hereafter as you see this moon having no difficulty in seeing it. So try your best to perform the prayers before the rising of the sun and that before its setting.''

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]


Commentary:
This Hadith tells us that no one can see Allah in this world but in the Hereafter, the believers will have the honour of seeing Allah. It also highlights the importance and merits of performing the Fajr and `Asr prayers punctually and in congregation.

What to say after completing Prayer (As-Salat)




Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:

"He who recites after every prayer:

Subhan-Allah (Allah is free from imperfection) thirty-three times;

Al-hamdu lillah (praise be to Allah) thirty-three times;

Allahu Akbar (Allah is Greatest) thirty-three times;

and completes the hundred with: La ilaha illallahu, wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu, wa Huwa `ala kulli shai'in Qadir

(there is no true god except Allah. He is One and He has no partner with Him. His is the sovereignty and His is the praise, and He is Omnipotent),

will have all his sins pardoned even if they may be as large as the foam on the surface of the sea.''
