PIETY
“Piety is a beautiful moral character, and sin is that which agitates your conscience.” (Hadith)
SALAAT
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
“Whoever guards Salaat, for him there will be on the Day of Qiyaamah a Noor, a Proof and Salvation. He who does not guard Salaat will have no Noor, no Proof and no Salvation on the Day of Qiyaamah. He will be resurrected with Qaaroon, Fir’oun, Haamaan and Ubayy Bin Khalf.
THE SAHAABAH
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
“Honour my Sahaabah, for verily, they are your noblest, then those after them (the Taabieen), then those after them (Tabe-Taabieen). Thereafter, falsehood will be prevalent……. Then will come people who will love obesity.”
“Recognize them (the Sahaabah). Follow in their footsteps, for verily they were on the Path of Straight Guidance.”
THIS DUNYA
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
“Verily this dunya is an abode for a person who has no abode (in the Aakhirah). It is wealth for one who has no wealth (in the Aakhirah). The one who accumulates wealth for this dunya is bereft of intelligence.”
“Be in this dunya as a forlorn person or one like a traveller.”
SALAAT
Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (Radhiyallahu anhu) narrated that Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
“He who did not perform Fajr Salaat, will have no barkat in his rizq. There will be no noor in the heart of a person who did not perform Zuhr Salaat. There will be no strength in the limbs of the one who did not perform Asr. The food of one who did not perform Maghrib Salaat is devoid of taste. The one who did not perform Ishaa’ is not a Mu’min neither in this world nor in the Aakhirah.”
“He who misses one Salaat is like one who is slaughtered without a knife. He who misses two Salaat is like one who is far from the Rahmat of Allah (he is mardood). He who misses three Salaat, is like one who causes distress to the heart of Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). He who misses four Salaat is like one who has rejected the entire Kitaab revealed by Allah. He who misses five Salaat, is addressed by a Allah Who proclaims wrathfully:
“Listen, O sinner! I am free of you, and you are free of Me. Get out from the heavens and the earth, and search for a being besides Me.” Thus, this person departs at the time of his death without Taubah.
