Sayings
of the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) |
Narrated by |
Allah
(SWT) will shade on the Day when there is no shade but His:
- "...a
just leader;
- a youth
who grows up worshipping Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta`ala);
- a
man who is deeply attached to the masjid;
- two men
who love one another for the sake of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta`ala), meeting
for His sake and parting for His sake;
- a man
who is called by a beautiful woman and says, I fear Allah (Subhanahu
wa Ta`ala)';
- a man
who gives charity in secret such that his left hand does not know what
his right hand is doing;
- and
a man who remembers Allah (subhanahu wa ta`ala) when he is alone and
his eyes fill with tears.

you take to prayers is a charity and removing a harmful thing from the
