حديث أَنَسِ بن مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: يَتْبَعُ الْمَيِّتَ ثَلَاثَةٌ فَيَرْجِعُ اثْنَانِ وَيَبْقَى مَعَهُ وَاحِدٌ يَتْبَعُهُ أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَعَمَلُهُ فَيَرْجِعُ أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ، وَيَبْقَى عَمَلُهُ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم : "When carried to his grave, a dead person is followed by three, two of which return (after his burial) and one remains with him; his relatives, his property, and his deeds follow him; relatives and his property return back while his deeds remain with him." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 521, Vol. 8)
حديث عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، وَهُوَ حَلِيفٌ لِبَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ لُؤَيٍّ، وَكَانَ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بَعَثَ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ بْنَ الْجَرَّاحِ إِلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ يَأتِي بِجِزْيَتِهَا وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، هُوَ صَالَحَ أَهْلَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ، وَأَمَّرَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعَلَاءَ بْنَ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ فَقَدِمَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بمَالٍ مِنَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ فَسَمِعَتِ الأَنْصَارُ بِقُدُومِ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ فَوَافَتْ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى بِهِمُ الْفَجْرَ انْصَرَفَ فَتَعَرَّضُوا لَهُ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، حِينَ رَآهُمْ وَقَالَ: أَظُنُّكُم قَدْ سَمِعْتُمْ أَنَّ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ قَدْ جَاءَ بِشَيْءٍ ⦗٣١٧⦘ قَالُوا: أَجَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ: فَأَبْشِروا وَأَمِّلوا مَا يَسُرُّكُمْ فَوَاللهِ لَا الْفَقْرَ أَخْشى عَلَيْكُمْ، وَلكِنْ أَخْشى عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تُبْسَطَ عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا كَمَا بُسِطَتْ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَ قَبلَكُمْ، فَتَنَافَسُوهَا كَمَا تَنَافَسُوهَا، وَتُهْلِكَكُمْ كَمَا أَهْلَكَتْهُمْ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم sent Abû 'Ubaida bin Al-Jarrâh to Bahrain to collect the Jizya. Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم had established peace with the people of Bahrain and appointed Al-'Alâ' bin Al-Hadrami as their governor.When Abû 'Ubaida came from Bahrain with the money, the Ansâr heard of Abû 'Ubaida's arrival which coincided with the time of the Fajr prayer with the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. When Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم led them in the Fajr prayer and finished, the Ansâr approached him, and he looked at them and smiled on seeing them and said, "I feel that you have heard that Abû 'Ubaida has brought something?" They said, "Yes, O Allâh's Messenger!"He said, "Rejoice and hope for what will please you! By Allâh, I am not afraid of your poverty, but I am afraid that you will lead a life of luxury as past nations did, whereupon you will compete with each other for it, as they competed for it, and it will destroy you as it destroyed them." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 385, Vol. 4)
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: إِذَا نَظَرَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى مَنْ فُضِّلَ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَالِ وَالْخَلْقِ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَسْفَلَ مِنْهُ.
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "If anyone of you looked at a person who was made superior to him in property and (in worldly rank and in good) appearance, then he should also look at the one who is inferior to him." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 497, Vol. 8) The tale of a leper, a bald man and a blind man
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، يَقُولُ: إِنَّ ثَلَاثَةً فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، أَبْرَصَ وَأَقْرَعَ وَأَعْمى بَدَا للهِ أَنْ يَبْتَلِيَهُمْ فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِمْ مَلَكًا فَأَتَى الأَبْرَصَ فَقَالَ: أَيُّ شَيْءٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ: لَوْنٌ حَسَنٌ وَجِلْدٌ حَسَنٌ قَدْ قَذِرَنِيَ النَّاسُ قَالَ: فَمَسَحَهُ، فَذَهَبَ عَنْهُ فَأُعْطِيَ لَوْنًا حَسَنًا فَقَالَ: أيُّ الماَلِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ: الإِبِلُ فَأُعْطِىَ نَاقَةً عُشَرَاءَ فَقَالَ: يُبَارَكُ لَكَ فِيهَاوَأَتَى الأَقْرَعَ فَقَالَ: أَيُّ شَيْءٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ: شَعَرٌ حَسَنٌ، وَيَذْهَبُ عَنِّي هذَا قَدْ قَذِرَنِيَ النَّاسُ قَالَ: فَمَسَحَهُ فَذَهَبَ وَأُعْطِيَ شَعَرًا حَسَنًا قَالَ: فَأَيُّ الْمَالِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ: الْبَقَرُ قَالَ: فَأَعْطَاهُ بَقَرَةً حَامِلًا وَقَالَ: يُبَارَك لَكَ فِيهَاوَأَتَى الأَعْمى، فَقَالَ: أَيُّ شَيْءٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ: يَرُدُّ اللهُ إِلَيَّ بَصَرِي، فَأُبْصِرُ بِهِ النَّاسَ قَالَ: فَمَسَحَهُ فَرَدَّ اللهُ إِلَيْهِ بَصَرَهُ قَالَ: فَأَيُّ الْمَالِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ: الْغَنْمُ فَأَعْطَاهُ شَاةً وَالِدًا فَأُنْتِجن هذَانِ وَوَلَّدَ هذَا فَكَانَ لِهذِهِ وَادٍ مِنْ إِبِلٍ، وَلِهذَا وَادٍ مِنْ بَقَرٍ، وِلِهذَا وَادٍ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ⦗٣١٩⦘ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ أَتَى الأَبْرَصَ فِي صُورَتِهِ وَهَيْئَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: رَجُلٌ مِسْكِينٌ تَقَطَّعَتْ بِيَ الْجِبَالُ فِي سَفَرِي فَلَا بَلَاغَ الْيَوْمَ إلا بِاللهِ، ثُمَّ بِكَ أَسْأَلُكَ، بِالَّذِي أَعْطَاكَ اللَّوْنَ الْحَسَنَ، وَالجِلْدَ الْحَسَنَ، وَالْمَالَ، بَعِيرًا أَتَبَلَّغُ عَلَيْهِ فِي سَفَرِي فَقَالَ لَهُ: إِنَّ الْحُقُوقَ كَثِيرَةٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ: كَأَنِّي أَعْرِفُكَ أَلَمْ تَكُنْ أَبْرَصَ يَقْذَرُكَ النَّاسُ، فَقِيرًا فَأَعْطَاكَ اللهُ فَقَالَ: لَقَدْ وَرِثْتُ لِكَابِرٍ عَنْ كَابِرٍ فَقَالَ: إِنْ كُنْتَ كَاذِبًا، فَصَيَّرَكَ اللهُ إِلَى مَا كُنْتَوَأَتَى الأَقْرَعَ فِي صُورَتِهِ وَهَيْئَتِهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ لِهذَا فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلَ مَا رَدَّ عَلَيْهِ هذَا فَقَالَ: إِن كُنْتَ كَاذِبًا فَصَيَّرَكَ اللهُ إِلَى مَا كنْتَوَأَتَى الأَعْمى فِي صُورَتِهِ فَقَالَ: رَجُلٌ مِسْكِينٌ، وَابْنُ سَبِيلٍ، وَتَقَطَّعَتْ بِيَ الْحِبَالُ فِي سَفَرِي فَلَا بَلَاغَ الْيَوْمَ إِلَاّ بِاللهِ، ثُمَّ بِكَ أَسْأَلُكَ، بِالَّذِي رَدَّ عَلَيْكَ بَصَرَكَ، شَاةً أَتَبَلَّغُ بِهَا فِي سَفَرِي فَقَالَ: قَدْ كُنْتُ أَعْمى فَرَدَّ اللهُ بَصَرِي، وَفَقِيرًا فَقَدْ أَغْنَانِي فَخُذْ مَا شِئْتَ فَوَاللهِ لَا أَجْهَدُكَ الْيَوْمَ بِشَيْءٍ أَخَذْتَهُ للهِ فَقَالَ: أَمْسِكْ مَالَكَ فَإِنَّمَا ابْتُلِيتُمْ فَقَدْ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْكَ، وَسَخِطَ عَلَى صَاحِبَيْكَ.
Narrated Abû Huraira رضى الله عنه that he heard Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم saying, "Allâh تعالى willed to test three Israelites, and they were a leper, a blind man and a bald-headed man. So, He sent them an angel who came to the leper and said, 'What thing do you like most?' He replied, 'Good colour and good skin, for the people have a strong aversion to me.'The angel touched him and his disease was cured, and he was given a good colour and beautiful skin. The angel asked him, 'What kind of property do you like best?' He replied, 'Camels.' (The narrator is in doubt, for either the leper or the bald-headed man demanded camels and the other demanded cows.) So he (i.e. the leper) was given a pregnant she-camel and the angel said (to him), 'May Allâh bless you in it.'The angel then went to the bald-headed man and said, 'What thing do you like most?' He said, 'I like good hair and wish to be cured of this disease, for the people feel repulsion for me.' The angel touched him and his illness was cured, and he was given good hair. The angel asked (him), 'What kind of property do you like best?' He replied, 'Cows.' The angel gave him a pregnant cow and said, 'May Allâh bless you in it.'The angel went to the blind man and asked, 'What thing do you like best?' He said, '(I like) that Allâh عزوجل may restore my eye-sight to me so that I may see the people.' The angel touched his eyes and Allâh عزوجل gave him back his eye-sight. The angel asked him, 'What kind of property do you like best?' He replied, 'Sheep.' The angel gave him a pregnant ewe.Afterwards, all the three pregnant animals gave birth to young ones and multiplied and brought forth so much that one of the (three) men had a herd of camels filling a valley, and one had a herd of cows filling a valley, and one had a flock of sheep filling a valley.Then the angel, disguised in the shape and appearance of a leper, went to the leper and said, 'I am a poor man, who has lost all means of livelihood while on a journey. None will satisfy my needs except Allâh تعالى and then you. In the Name of Him Who has given you such nice colour and beautiful skin, and so much property, I ask you to give me a camel so that I may reach my destination.'The man replied, 'I have many obligations (so I cannot give you).' The angel said, 'I think I know you, were you not a leper to whom the people had a strong aversion? Weren't you a poor man, and then Allâh تعالى gave you (all this property).' He replied, '(This is all wrong) I got this property through inheritance from my fore-fathers.' The angel said, 'If you are telling a lie, then let Allâh ﷻ make you as you were before.'Then the angel, disguised in the shape and appearance of a bald man, went to the bald man and said to him the same as he told the first one, and he too, answered the same as the first one did. The angel said, 'If you are telling a lie, then let Allâh ﷻ make you as you were before.'Then the angel disguised in the shape of a blind man, went to the blind man and said, 'I am a poor man and a traveller, whose means of livelihood have been exhausted while on a journey. I have nobody to help me except Allâh ﷻ, and after Him, you yourself. I ask you in the Name of Him Who has given you back your eye-sight to give me a sheep, so that with its help, I may complete my journey.'The man said, 'No doubt, I was blind and Allâh ﷻ gave me back my eye-sight; I was poor and Allâh made me rich; so take anything you wish from my property. By Allâh, I will not stop you from taking anything (you need) of my property which you may take for Allâh's Sake.' The angel replied, 'Keep your property with you. You (i.e. three men) have been tested and Allâh ﷻ is pleased with you and is angry with your two companions.' " ( Sahîh Al-Bukhâri, Hadîth No. 670, Vol. 4)
حديث سَعْدٍ، قَالَ: إِنِّي لأَوَّلُ الْعَرَبِ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَرَأَيْتُنَا نَغْزُو وَمَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ إِلَاّ وَرَقُ الْحُبْلَةِ وَهذَا السَّمُرُ وَإِنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَيَضَعُ كَمَا تَضَعُ الشَّاةُ، مَالَهُ خِلْطٌ ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَتْ بَنُو أَسَدٍ تُعَزِّرُنِي عَلَى الإِسْلَامِ خِبْتُ إِذًا، وَضَلَّ سَعْيِي.
I was the first man among the Arabs to shoot an arrow for Allâh's Cause. We used to fight in Allâh's Cause while we had nothing to eat except the leaves of the Hubla and the Samûr trees (desert trees) so that we discharged excrement like that of sheep (i.e. unmixed droppings). Today the (people of the) tribe of Banî Asad teach me the laws of Islâm. If so, then I am lost, and all my efforts of that hard time had gone in vain." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 460, Vol. 8)

'Âisha رضى الله عنها said to me, "O my nephew! We used to see the crescent and then the crescent and then the crescent and in this way we saw three crescents in two months and no fire (for cooking) was to be made in the houses of Allâh's Messenger ( صلى الله عليه وسلم ). " I said, "O my aunt! Then what used to sustain you?" 'Âisha رضى الله عنها said, "The two black things: dates and water, our neighbours from Ansâr had some Manâ'ih and they used to present Allâh's Messenger some of their milk and he used to make us drink." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 741, Vol. 3 )
حديث عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: تُوُفِّيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حِينَ شَبِعْنَا مِنَ الأَسْوَدَيْنِ: التَّمْرِ وَالْمَاءِ.
