Lesson 11

2. Mu`adh bin Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (‫ﷺ‬) said,
"The one who suppresses anger and has the power to give effect to it, will be called
out by Allah, the Exalted, to the forefront of the creatures on the Day of Resurrection
and he will be asked to choose any of the virgins (Hur) of his liking".
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi]
• Hur al-ayn – Women of paradise, big eyes
• If a persons wife on this dunya gives him a hard time, a hur will say he's only
temporary now, stop harming him
• If a hur were to look over this world, she would fill the world with light due to her
beauty
Hadith

3. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man asked the Prophet
(‫ﷺ‬) for an advice and he (‫ﷺ‬) said, "Do not get angry". The man repeated that
several times and he replied, "Do not get angry".
[Al-Bukhari]
• The prophet would give specific advice to others - depending on their
character:
• Abu-Dharr – do no be in charge of people
• Abu-Hurayrah – pray witr at night before sleep
• Therefore it cannot be used generically
Hadith

4. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (‫ﷺ‬)
said, "A Muslim, male or female, continues to remain under trial in respect of his life,
property and offspring until he faces Allah, the Exalted, with no sin record".
[At-Tirmidhi]
• Condition is patience
• Redemption – due to suffering
Hadith

5. Ibn `Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: 'Uyainah bin Hisn came to
Al-Madinah and stayed with his nephew Hurr bin Qais who was among those whom
Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) showed favour to. The knowledgeable people
(Qurra'), whether they were old or young, had the privilege of joining Umar's council
and he used to consult them. 'Uyainah said to Hurr: "My nephew, the Leader of the
Believers shows favour to you. Will you obtain permission for me to sit with him?''
Hurr asked `Umar and he accorded permission. When `Uyainah came into the
presence of `Umar, he addressed him thus: "O son of Khattab, you neither bestow
much on us nor deal with us justly.'' `Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) got
angry and was about to beat him up when Hurr said: ``O Leader of the Believers,
Allah said to His Prophet (‫ﷺ‬): ' Show forgiveness, enjoin what is good, and turn
away from the foolish (i.e., don't punish them).' (7:199) This one is from the
ignorants. When Hurr recited this, `Umar became quite motionless in his seat. He
always adhered strictly to the Book of Allah.
[Al-Bukhari]

Commentary

7. Ibn Mas`ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (‫ﷺ‬) said,
"You will see after me favouritism and things which you will disapprove of.'' They
submitted: "What do you order us to do (under such circumstances)?'' He replied,
"Discharge your obligations and ask your rights from Allah".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
• Execute the rights upon you – unless they show kufr
• If it will cause more bloodshed then it still should be avoided – don't speculate or
call others kaafir
Hadith

8. Usaid bin Hudhair (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that: A person from
among the Ansar said, "O Messenger of Allah! You appointed such and such person
and why do you not appoint me?'' Messenger of Allah (‫ﷺ‬) said, "After me you will
see others given preference to you, but you should remain patient till you meet me
at the Haud (Al-Kauthar in Jannah)".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
Hadith

9. Abdullah bin Abu Aufa (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of
Allah (‫ﷺ‬) at one time when he confronted the enemy, and was waiting for the sun to
set, stood up and said, "O people! Do not long for encountering the enemy and
supplicate to Allah to grant you security. But when you face the enemy, show
patience and steadfastness; and keep it in mind that Jannah lies under the shade of
the swords.'' Then he invoked Allah, saying, "O Allah, Revealer of the Book, Disperser
of the clouds, Defeater of the Confederates, put our enemy to rout and help us in
over-powering them".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
• Rely on Allah – over the sword
• Make Islam the governing force in your life
• Allah will give victory to the prophets and the believers
