From: Sunan Abu Dawood. Chapter 1, Purification (Kitab Al-Taharah)
Narrated/Authority of Laqit ibn Sabirah
I was the leader of the delegation of Banu al-Muntafiq or (the narrator doubted) I was among the delegation of Banu al-Muntafiq that came to the Messenger of Allah (peace_be_upon_him). When we reached the Prophet, we did not find him in his house. We found there Aisha, the Mother of the Believers. She ordered that a dish called Khazirah should be prepared for us. It was then prepared. A tray containing dates was then presented to us. (The narrator Qutaybah did not mention the word qina', tray).
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) came. He asked: Has anything been served to you or ordered for you? We replied: Yes, Messenger of Allah. While we were sitting in the company of the Messenger of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) we suddenly saw that a shepherd was driving a herd of sheep to their fold. He had with him a newly-born lamb that was crying.
He (the Prophet) asked him: What did it bear, O so and so? He replied: A ewe. He then said: Slaughter for us in its place a sheep. Do not think that we are slaughtering it for you. We have one hundred sheep and we do not want their number to increase. Whenever a ewe is born, we slaughter a sheep in its place.
(The narrator says that the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) used the word la tahsabanna, do not think).
I (the narrator Laqit) then said: Messenger of Allah, I have a wife who has something (wrong) in her tongue, i.e. she is insolent. He said: Then divorce her. I said: Messenger of Allah, she had company with me and I have children from her. He said: Then ask her (to obey you). If there is something good in her, she will do so (obey); and do not beat your wife as you beat your slave-girl.
I said: Messenger of Allah, tell me about ablution. He said: Perform ablution in full and make the fingers go through the beard and snuff with water well except when you are fasting.

We were sitting in the company of Umar and he said: Who amongst you has heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) talking about the turmoil? Some people said: It is we who heard it. Upon this be remarked: Perhaps by turmoil you presume the unrest of man in regard to his household or neighbour, they replied: Yes. He ('Umar) observed: Such (an unrest) would be done away with by prayer, fasting and charity. But who amongst you has heard from the Apostle (may peace be upon him) describing that turmoil which would come like the wave of the ocean. Hudhaifa said: The people hushed into silence, I replied: It is I. He ('Umar) said: Ye, well, your father was also very pious. Hudhaifa said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be, upon him ) observing: Temptations will be presented to men's hearts as reed mat is woven stick by stick and any heart which is impregnated by them will have a black mark put into it, but any heart which rejects them will have a white mark put in it. The result is that there will become two types of hearts: one white like a white stone which will not be harmed by any turmoil or temptation, so long as the heavens and the earth endure; and the other black and dust-coloured like a vessel which is upset, not recognizing what is good or rejecting what is abominable, but being impregnated with passion. Hudhaifa said: I narrated to him ('Umar): There is between you and that (turmoil) a closed door, but there is every likelihood of its being broken. 'Umar said: Would it be broken? You have, been rendered fatherless. Had it been opened, it would have been perhaps closed also. I said: No, it would be broken, and I narrated to him: Verily that door implies a person who would be killed or die. There is no mistake in this hadith. Abu Khalid narrated: I said to Sa'd, O Abu Malik, what do you mean by the term" Aswad Murbadda"? He replied: High degree of whiteness in blackness. I said: What is meant by" Alkoozu Mujakhiyyan"? He replied: A vessel turned upside down.

Hadith No: 103
From: 110 Hadith Qudsi. Chapter 1, 110 Ahadith Qudsi (Sacred Hadith)
Narrated/Authority of Abu Huraira
From: 110 Hadith Qudsi. Chapter 1, 110 Ahadith Qudsi (Sacred Hadith)
Narrated/Authority of Abu Huraira
When this verse was revealed to Allah's Messenger (PBUH): "To Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth and whether you disclose what is in your minds or conceal it, Allah will reckon you according to it. Then He
will forgive whom He pleases and chastise whom He likes as Allah is All-Omnipotent over every thing." The narrator said: The Companions of Allah's Messenger (PBUH) felt it hard. They came to him, sat down on their knees and said: 0 Messenger (PBUH) of Allah, we have been assigned with some duties (tasks) which we have capability to perform such as: prayer (Salat), fasting (Saum), fighting in Allah's way (Jihad), and charity (Zakat). Now this (the above mentioned verse) was revealed to you and it is beyond our power to live up to. Then Allah's Messenger (PBUH) said: Do you intend to say what the people of the two Scriptures (the Jews and Christians) had said before you: "We hear and disobey". Rather you should say: "We hear, obey and seek your forgiveness, our Lord! And to You is
the return". When the people recited it, their tongues became subdued with it. Then Allah revealed: "The Messenger (PBUH) believes in what is sent down to him from His Lord, and so do the believers (following him). Each one believes in Allah and His angels and His Books and His Messenger (PBUH)s, saying: We differentiate not between any of His Messenger (PBUH)s; and they say: We hear and seek your
forgiveness, our Lord! And to You is the return". When they (the Companions) said the same, Allah abrogated this verse and Allah the All-Great, revealed a new one replacing it: "Allah burdens not a soul beyond its capacity. It gets every good that it earns and it suffers every ill that it earns. Our Lord! Punish us not, if we forget or make a mistake". (When the Companions repeated the same words) Allah said: Yes: (The Companions further repeated
the words as revealed to Prophet (SAW) Muhammad (SAW) Our Lord! Do not lay on us a burden as that you had laid on those before us. Allah said: Yes. (The Companions
further repeated) Our Lord! impose not on us (burdens) which we have no strength to bear. Allah said: Yes. (The Companions further repeated) And pardon us and provide us protection; and have Mercy on us. You are our Patron,
so please grant us victory over the disbelieving people" Allah said: Yes. (2:285,6)
(This Hadith is sound and reported by Muslim).

Narrated/Authority of Abu Huraira
that when it was revealed to the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him): To Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth and whether you disclose that which is in your mind or conceal it, Allah will call you to account according to it. Then He forgives whom He pleases and chastises whom He Pleases; and Allah is over everything Potent" (ii. 284). the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) felt it hard and severe and they came to the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) and sat down on their knees and said: Messenger of Allah, we were assigned some duties which were within our power to perform, such as prayer, fasting, struggling (in the cause of Allah), charity. Then this (the above-mentioned) verse was revealed unto you and it is beyond our power to live up to it. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Do you intend to say what the people of two books (Jews and Christians) said before you:" We hear and disobey"? You should rather say:" We hear and we obey, (we seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord! and unto Thee is the return." And they said:" We hear and we obey, (we seek) Thy forgiveness, Our Lord! and unto Thee is the return." When the people recited it and it smoothly flowed on their tongues, then Allah revealed immediately afterwards:" The Apostle believes in that which is sent down unto him from his Lord, and so do the believers. Each one believes in Allah and His Angels and His Books and His Apostles, saying: We differentiate not between any of His Apostles and they say: We hearken and we obey: (we seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord! and unto Thee is the return" (ii. 285). When they did that, Allah abrogated this (verse) and the Great, Majestic Allah revealed:" Allah burdens not a soul beyond its capacity. It gets every good that it earns and it suffers every ill that it earns. Our Lord, punish us not if we forget or make a mistake." (The Prophet said: ) Yes, our Lord! do not lay on us a burden as Thou didst lay on those before us. (The Prophet said: ) Yes, our Lord, impose not on us (burdens) which we have not the strength to bear (The Prophet said: ) Yes, and pardon us and grant us protection! and have mercy on us. Thou art our Patron, so grant us victory over the disbelieving people" (ii. 286). He (the Lord) said: Yes.

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had asked Ibn Shihab whether someone doing itikaf could go into a house to relieve himself, and he said, "Yes, there is no harm in that."
Malik said, "The situation that we are all agreed upon here is that there is no disapproval of anyone doing itikaf in a mosque where jumua is held. The only reason I see for disapproving of doing itikaf in a mosque where jumua is not held is that the man doing itikaf would have to leave the mosque where he was doing itikaf in order to go to jumua, or else not go there at all. If, however, he is doing itikaf in a mosque where jumua is not held, and he does not have to go to jumua in any other mosque, then I see no harm in him doing itikaf there, because Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, says, 'While you are doing itikaf in mosques,' and refers to all mosques in general, without specifying any particular kind."
Malik continued, "Accordingly, it is permissiblefor a man to do itikaf in a mosque where jumua is not held if he does not have to leave it to go to a mosque where jumua is held."
Malik said, "A person doing itikaf should spend the night only in the mosque where he is doing itikaf, except if his tent is in one of the courtyards of the mosque. I have never heard that someone doing itikaf can put up a shelter anywhere except in the mosque itself or in one of the courtyards of the mosque.
Part of what shows that he must spend the night in the mosque is the saying of A'isha, 'When the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was doing itikaf, he would only go into the house to relieve himself.' Nor should he do itikaf on the roof of the mosque or in the minaret."
Malik said, "The person who is going to do itikaf should enter the place where he wishes to do itikaf before the sun sets on the night when he wishes to begin his itikaf, so that he is ready to begin the itikaf at the beginning of the night when he is going to start his itikaf. A person doing itikaf should be occupied with his itikaf, and not turn his attention to other things which might occupy him, such as trading or whatever. There is no harm, however, if some one doing itikaf tells some one to do something for him regarding his estate, or the affairs of his family, or tells someone to sell some property of his, or something else that does not occupy him directly. There is no harm in him arranging for someone else to do that for him if it is a simple matter."
Malik said, "I have never heard any of the people of knowledge mentioning any modification as far as how to do itikaf is concerned. Itikaf is an act of ibada like the prayer, fasting, the hajj, and such like acts, whether they are obligatory or voluntary. Anyone who begins doing any of these acts should do them according to what has come down in the sunna. He should not start doing anything in them that the muslims have not done, whether it is a modification that he imposes on others, or one that he begins doing himself. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, practised itikaf, and the muslims know what the sunna of itikaf is."
Malik said, "Itikaf and jiwar are the same, and Itikaf is the same for a village-dweller as it is for a nomad."

Narrated/Authority of Abu Said Al-Khudri
Some people during the lifetime
of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said:
Messenger of Allah! shall we see our Lord on the Day of
Resurrection? The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him)
said: Yes, and added: Do you feel any trouble in seeing the
sun at noon with no cloud over it, and do you feel trouble in
seeing the moon (open) in the full moonlit night with no cloud
over it? They said: No, Messenger of Allah! He (the Holy
Prophet) said: You will not feel any trouble in seeing Allah
on the Day of Resurrection any more than you do in seeing any
one of them. When the Day of Resurrection comes a Mu'adhdhin
(a proclaimer) would proclaim: Let every people follow what
they used to worship. Then all who worshipped idols and stones
besides Allah would fall into the Fire, till only the
righteous and the vicious and some of the people of the Book
who worshipped Allah are left. Then the Jews would be
summoned, and it would be said to them: What did you worship?
They will say: We worshipped 'Uzair, son of Allah. It would be
said to them: You tell a lie; Allah had never had a spouse or
a son. What do you want now? They would say: We feel thirsty,
O our Lord! Quench our thirst. They would be directed (to a
certain direction) and asked: Why don't you go there to drink
water? Then they would be pushed towards the Fire (and they
would find to their great dismay that) it was but a mirage
(and the raging flames of fire) would be consuming one
another, and they would fall into the Fire. Then the
Christians would be summoned and it would be said to them:
What did you worship? They would say: We worshipped Jesus, son
of Allah. It would be said to them: You tell a lie; Allah did
not take for Himself either a spouse or a son. Then it would
be said to them: What do you want? They would say: Thirsty we
are, O our Lord! Quench our thirst. They would be directed (to
a certain direction) and asked: Why don't you go there to get
water? But they would be pushed and gathered together towards
the Hell, which was like a mirage to them, and the flames
would consume one another. They would fall Into the Fire, till
no one is left except he who worshipped Allah, be he pious or
sinful. The Lord of the Universe, Glorified and Exalted, would
come to them in a form recognisable to them and say; What are
you looking for? Every people follow that which they
worshipped. They would say: Our Lord, we kept ourselves
separate from the people in the world, though we felt great
need of them; we, however, did not associate ourselves with
them. He would say: I am your Lord. They would say: We take
refuge with Allah from thee and do not associate anything with
Allah. They would repeat it twice or thrice, till some of them
would be about to return. It would be said: Is there any sign
between you and Him by which you will recognise Him? They
would say: Yes. and the things would be laid bare. Those who
used to prostrate themselves before God of their own accord
would be permitted by God to prostrate themselves. But there
would remain none who used to prostrate out of fear (of
people) and ostentation but Allah would make his back as one
piece, and whenever he would attempt to prostrate he would
fall on his back. Then they would raise their heads and He
would assume the Form in which they had seen Him the first
time and would say: I am your Lord. They would say: Thou art
our Lord. Then the bridge would be set up over the Hell and
intercession would be allowed and they will say: O God, keep
safe, keep safe. It was asked: Messenger of Allah, what is
this bridge? He said: The void in which one Is likely to slip.
There would be hooks, tongs, spits like the thorn that is
found in Najd and is known as Sa'dan. The believers would then
pass over within the twinkling of an eye, like lightning, like
wind, like a bird, like the finest horses and camels. Some
will escape and be safe, some will be lacerated and let go,
and some will be pushed into the fire of Hell till the
believers will find rescue from the Fire. By One in Whose hand
is my life, there will be none among you more eager to claim a
right than the believers on the Day of Resurrection for
(saying their) brethren in the Fire who would say: O our Lord,
they were fasting along with us, and praying and performing
pilgrimage. It will be said to them: Take out those whom you
recognise. Then their persons would be forbidden to the Fire;
and they would take out a large number of people who had been
overtaken by Fire up to the middle of the shank or up to the
knees. They would then say: O our Lord I not one of those
about whom Thou didst give us command remains in it. He will
then say: Go back and bring out those in whose hearts you find
good of the weight of a dinar Then they will take out a large
number of people. Then they would say: O our Lord! we have not
left anyone about whom You commanded us. He will then say: Go
back and bring out those in whose hearts you find as much as
half a dinar of good. Then they will take out a large number
of people, and would say: O our Lord! not one of those about
whom Thou commanded us we have left in it. Then He would say:
Go back and in whose heart you find good to the weight of a
particle bring him out. They would bring out a large number of
people, and would then say: O our Lord, now we have not left
anyone in it (Hell) having any good in him. Abu Sa'id Khudri
said: If you don't testify me in this hadith, then recite if
you like:" Surely Allah wrongs not the weight of an atom; and
if it is a good deed. He multiplies it and gives from Himself
a great reward" (al-’Qur'an, iv. 40). Then Allah, Exalted and
Great, would say: The angels have interceded, the apostles
have interceded and the believers have interceded, and no one
remains (to grant pardon) but the Most Merciful of the
mercifuls. He will then take a handful from Fire and bring out
from it people who never did any good and who had been turned
into charcoal, and will cast them into a river called the
river of life, on the outskirts of Paradise. They will come
out as a seed comes cut from the silt carried by flood. You
see it near the stone or near the tree. That which is exposed
to the sun is yellowish or greenish and which is under the
shade is white. They said: Messenger of Allah! it seems as if
you had been tending a flock in the jungle. He (the Holy
Prophet) said: They will come forth like pearls with seals on
their necks. The inhabitants of Paradise would recognise them
(and say): Those are who have been set free by the
Compassionate One. Who has admitted them into Paradise without
any (good) deed that they did or any good that they sent in
advance Then He would say: Enter the Paradise; whatever you
see in it is yours. They would say: O Lord, Thou hast bestowed
upon us (favours) which Thou didst not bestow upon anyone else
in the world. He would say: There is with Me (a favour) for
you better than this. They would say: O our Lord! which thing
is better than this? He would say: It is My pleasure. I will
never be angry with you after this
