"The Messenger of Allah (saw) told us two Ahadith, one of which I have seen, and I am still waiting for the other. He told us: 'Honesty was preserved in the roots of men's hearts' - (One of the narrators) Tanafisi said: 'Meaning in the middle of men's hearts' - 'Then the Quran was revealed and we learned (it) from the Quran and the Sunnah.' Then he told us about its disappearance, saying; 'A man will go to sleep and honesty will be taken away from his heart, and only its trace will remain, like spots without color. Then he will go to sleep again and the remainder of the honesty will also be taken away (from his heart) and leaving a trace like a blister, as when an ember touches your foot and raises a blister which has nothing inside.'"

But today I cannot deal except with so-and-so and so-and-so."

When he enters the masjid (mosque) he is in a state of prayer so long as he is waiting for the prayer.'" (Sahih)
