From the words of Muhammad is the Messenger of God:




 عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم قال : [ يدخل الجنة أقوام أفئدتهم مثل أفئدة الطير ] رواه مسلم 
قيل معناه : متوكلون . وقيل : قلوبهم رقيقة

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: The Prophet(PBUH) said, "A group of people (both men and women) whose hearts will be like the hearts of birds, will enter Jannah". 
[Muslim].


It has been interpreted that such people are those who put their trust in Allah; another interpretation is that these people are tender-hearted. 

Commentary: 
1. Excellence of trust in Allah and kindness of heart are most valuable qualities because both of them are means to enter Jannah. 

2. One should not worry much about one's food and means of subsistence. In fact, people should have the heart like birds who do not collect to keep in reserve anything and go out every morning in search of food and return to their nests fully satiated. This advice is repeated in another Hadith to the effect that when birds leave their nests in the morning they are hungry but when they come back, their stomachs are full and they do not need any more food. 

 عن جابر رضي الله عنه أنه غزا مع النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم قبل نجد فلما قفل رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قفل معهم فأدركتهم القائلة في واد كثير العضاه فنزل رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم وتفرق الناس يستظلون بالشجر ونزل رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم تحت سمرة فعلق بها سيفه ونمنا نومة فإذا رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم يدعونا وإذا عنده أعرابي فقال : [ إن هذا اخترط علي سيفي وأنا نائم فاستيقظت وهو في يده صلتا قال : من يمنعك مني ؟ قلت : الله ثلاثا ] ولم يعاقبه وجلس . متفق عليه 
وفي رواية قال جابر : كنا مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم بذات الرقاع فإذا أتينا على شجرة ظليلة تركناها لرسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم فجاء رجل من المشركين وسيف رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم معلق بالشجرة فاخترطه فقال : تخافني ؟ قال [ لا ] فقال : فمن يمنعك مني ؟ قال [ الله ] وفي رواية أبي بكر الإسماعيلي في صحيحه فقال : من يمنعك مني ؟ قال [ الله ] فسقط السيف من يده فأخذ رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم السيف فقال : [ من يمنعك مني ؟ ]فقال : كن خير آخذ . فقال : [ تشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأني رسول الله ؟ ] قال : لا ولكني أعاهدك أن لا أقاتلك ولا أكون مع قوم يقاتلونك . فخلى سبيله فأتى أصحابه فقال : جئتكم من عند خير الناس 
قوله [ قفل ] : أي رجع 
و [ العضاه ] : الشجر الذي له شوك 
و [ السمرة ] بفتح السين وضم الميم : الشجرة من الطلح وهي العظام من شجر العضاه 
و [ اخترط السيف ] أي سله وهو في يده 
[ صلتا ] : أي مسلولا . وهو بفتح الصاد وضمها. 

. Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I went in an expedition along with the Prophet (PBUH)in the direction of Najd. When Messenger of Allah(PBUH) returned, I also returned with him. Then the mid-day sleep overtook us in a valley full of prickly shrubs. Messenger of Allah(PBUH) got down and the people scattered around seeking shade under the trees. Messenger of Allah (PBUH) hang up his sword on the branch of a tree. We were enjoying a sleep when Messenger of Allah (PBUH) called us, and lo!There was a desert Arab bedouin near him. He (PBUH)said, "This man brandished my sword over me while I was asleep. I woke up and saw it in his hand unsheathed. He asked: `Who will protect you from me?' I replied: 'Allah' - thrice". He did not punish him and sat down. 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

In another narration, Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) said: We accompanied Messenger of Allah(PBUH) in the campaign of Dhat-ur-Riqa`. We left Messenger of Allah (PBUH) to take rest under a shady tree. One of the polytheists came to him. The sword of Messenger of Allah(PBUH) was hanging on a tree. He drew it and said: "Are you afraid of me?'' Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "No". Then he said: "Who will then protect you from me?'' Messenger of Allah(PBUH) replied, "Allah". 

And in a narration of Abu Bakr Al-Isma`ili, the polytheist asked: "Who will protect you from me?'' Messenger of Allah (PBUH) replied, "Allah.'' As soon as he said this, the sword fell down from his hand and Messenger of Allah (PBUH) catching the sword, asked him, "Who will protect you from me.'' He said, "Please forgive me.'' Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "On condition you testify that there is none worthy of worship but Allah and that I am His Messenger.'' He said, "No, but I promise you that I shall not fight against you, nor shall I be with those who fight with you". The Prophet (PBUH) let him go. He then went back to his companions and said: "I have come to you from one of the best of mankind". 

Commentary: Besides the Prophet's habit of pardoning, and gracious attitude, this Hadith mentions his utmost trust in Allah. It tells that one who has trust in Allah is helped by Him. Later on, the bedouin mentioned in the Hadith embraced Islam. In the battle of Dhat-ur-Riqa` which took place in the sixth year of the Hijra, due to intense heat and lack of footwear, the Companions of the Prophet (PBUH)wrapped their feet with pieces of cloth and for this reason it was called "War of patches of cloth (Dhat-ur-Riqa`)''. Some scholars have also given a different reason for this name. 

 عن عمر رضي الله عنه قال سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم يقول : [ لو أنكم تتوكلون على الله حق توكله لرزقكم كما يرزق الطير : تغدو خماصا وتروح بطانا ] رواه الترمذي وقال حديث حسن 
معناه : تذهب أول النهار [ خماصا ] : أي ضامرة البطون من الجوع 
ترجع آخر النهار [ بطانا ] : أي ممتلئة البطون 

 `Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard Messenger of Allah(PBUH) saying: "If you all depend on Allah with due reliance, He would certainly give you provision as He gives it to birds who go forth hungry in the morning and return with full belly at dusk". 
[At-Tirmidhi]

Commentary: Trust in Allah does not mean that one should not give any importance to material resources. What it really means is that along with their due importance, one should have full trust in Allah. Without His Will, material resources are of no avail. But nevertheless it is necessary to have material resources because their procurement is also ordained by Him. Birds do not keep sitting in their nests for food but fly out in search of it 

* عن أبي عمارة البراء بن عازب رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ يا فلان إذا أويت إلى فراشك فقل : اللهم أسلمت نفسي إليك ووجهت وجهي إليك وفوضت أمري إليك وألجأت ظهري إليك رغبة ورهبة إليك لا ملجأ ولا منجى منك إلا إليك آمنت بكتابك الذي أنزلت وبنبيك الذي أرسلت . فإنك إن مت من ليلتك مت على الفطرة وإن أصبحت أصبت خيرا ]متفق عليه 
وفي رواية في الصحيحين عن البراء قال قال لي رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ إذا آتيت مضجعك فتوضأ وضوءك للصلاة ثم اضطجع على شقك الأيمن وقل ] وذكر نحوه . ثم قال [ واجعلهن آخر ما تقول ]
80. Al-Bara' bin `Azib (May Allah be pleased with them) said: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) asked me to recite whenever I go to bed: "Allahumma aslamtu nafsi ilaika, wa wajjahtu wajhi ilaika, wa fawwadtu amri ilaika, wal-ja'tu zahri ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika, la malja wa la manja minka illa ilaika. Amantu bikitabikal-ladhi anzalta, wa nabiyyikal-ladhi arsalta (O Allah! I have submitted myself to You, I have turned my face to You, entrusted my affairs to You; and committed my back to You out of desire for You and fear of You; expecting Your reward and fearing Your punishment). There is no refuge and no place of safety from You but with You. I believe in the Book You have revealed and in the Prophet You have sent.'' Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said that if anyone recited these words and died that night, he would die in the true religion. In case he remains alive till morning, he will obtain good. 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

In another narration: He reported Messenger of Allah(PBUH) as saying: "If you go to bed, perform the Salat Wudu', lie down on your right side and say [the above Du`a (supplication)] and let these words be your last".

Commentary: It is better to make Wudu' before going to sleep. Similarly, it is also meritorious to recite the invocation mentioned in the Hadith before one goes to bed, because it is a prayer for the renewal of Islam and Faith and request for grant of peace and security.

 عن أبي بكر الصديق عبد الله بن عثمان بن عامر بن عمرو بن كعب بن سعد بن 
تيم بن مرة بن كعب بن لؤي بن غالب القرشي التيمي رضي الله عنه وهو وأبوه وأمه صحابة رضي الله عنهم قال نظرت إلى أقدام المشركين ونحن في الغار وهم على رؤوسنا فقلت : يا رسول الله لو أن أحدهم نظر تحت قدميه لأبصرنا . فقال : [ما ظنك يا أبا بكر باثنين الله ثالثهما ] متفق عليه 
 Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (May Allah bepleased with him) said: When Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and I were in the cave of Thaur and I saw the feet of the polytheists who were above us at the mouth of the cave (on the eve of the Emigration), I submitted: "O Messenger of Allah! If one of them were to look down below his feet, he would see us". He (PBUH) said, "O Abu Bakr! What do you think of two whose third is Allah". 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary: This incident occurred when the Prophet (PBUH) was emigrating from Makkah to Al-Madinah with Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (May Allah be pleased with him) The disbelievers had announced a huge reward for their arrest for which people were searching them wildly. In the course of their search, some of them reached the mouth of the cave of Thaur where the Prophet (PBUH) and Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him)were staying for refuge and rest. This Hadith describes the valour, fearlessness and unlimited confidence and trust of the Prophet (PBUH)in Allah; it also indicates how Allah helps His favourites. See Verse (40:51) of the Qur'an in this regard. 

 عن أم المؤمنين أم سلمة واسمها هند بنت أبي أمية حذيفة المخزومية رضي الله عنها أن النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم كان إذا خرج من بيته قال : بسم الله توكلت على الله اللهم إني أعوذ بك أن أضل أو أضل أو أزل أو أزل أو أظلم أو أظلم أو أجهل أو يجهل علي ] حديث صحيح رواه أبو داود والترمذي وغيرهما بأسانيد صحيحة . قال الترمذي حديث حسن صحيح . وهذا لفظ أبي داود 
. Umm Salamah (May Allah be pleased with her)reported: Whenever the Prophet (PBUH) stepped out of his house, he would say, "Bismillah, tawakkaltu `alallah. Allahumma inni a`udhu bika an adilla aw udalla, aw azilla aw uzalla, aw azlima aw uzlama, aw ajhala aw yujhala `alayya". "[I go forth. (I begin with the Name of Allah, I trust in Allah; O Allah! I seek refuge in You from leaving or being led astray, or against slipping or being caused to slip; or doing injustice or being done injustice; or doing wrong or having wrong done to me)]". 
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi reported it. According to At-Tirmidhi, this Hadith is classified as Hasan Sahih. Its wording is from Abu Dawud]

 عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال جاء رجل إلى النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم فقال : يا رسول الله أي الصدقة أعظم أجرا ؟ قال : [ أن تصدق وأنت صحيح شحيح تخشى الفقر وتأمل الغنى ولا تمهل حتى إذا بلغت الحلقوم قلت : لفلان كذا ولفلان كذا وقد كان لفلان ] متفق عليه
[ الحلقوم ] : مجرى النفس . والمريء : مجرى الطعام والشراب
. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him)said: There came a man to the Prophet (PBUH) and said, "O Messenger of Allah, which charity is the most rewardable?'' He (PBUH) said, "That you should give charity (in a state when you are) healthy and stingy and fear poverty, hoping to become rich (charity in such a state of health and mind is the best). And you must not defer (charity to such a length) that you are about to die and would be saying: 'This is for so-and-so, and this for so-and-so.' Lo! It has already come into (the possession of) so-and-so".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

Commentary: Charity in the real sense is that which a person gives when he is healthy. If a person gives charity when he is facing death, it does not have much value before Allah. Moreover, in that condition he cannot give more than one-third of his property in charity because then it becomes the property of his successors, which cannot be spent even in the way of Allah. For this reason Allah has prescribed a limit in this respect, according to which if a person going through a mortal disease wants to give his property in charity or donate it for some charitable purpose, he cannot spend more than one-third of it on this account. This injunction is an inducement for people to hurry in doing good deeds, especially in the matter of alms and charity. In fact, he should do it without delay. 


 عن ابن عباس رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ نعمتان مغبون فيهما كثير من الناس : الصحة والفراغ ] رواه البخاري
. Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: Messenger of Allah(PBUH) said, "There are two blessings in which many people incur loss.(They are) health and free time (for doing good)".
[Al-Bukhari] 
Commentary:
1. Al-Ghabn in Arabic means loss. What it really signifies is to sell something of one's own on less than its due price, or to buy something on its double or triple price. In both cases one is a loser. When a person comes to know about such a loss, he repents and feels sorry for it. This loss coupled with regret is called Al-Ghabn. In Ahadith, man has been compared with trader, and health and leisure enjoyed by him with merchandise. One who uses his merchandise with care, gains profit while he who wastes it, that is to say, uses it carelessly, will be a loser on the Day of Resurrection.

2. The majority of people do not take proper care of both these things, with the result that one wastes the time in useless activities and spends the physical strength and energy in the disobedience of Allah. One will have to face severe consequences of it on the Day of Resurrection when he will be brought into account for everything.


الرابع عن عائشة رضي الله عنها أن النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم كان يقوم من الليل حتى تتفطر قدماه . فقلت له : لم تصنع هذا يا رسول الله وقد غفر الله لك ما تقدم من ذنبك وما تأخر ؟ قال : [ أفلا أحب أن أكون عبدا شكورا ]متفق عليه . هذا لفظ البخاري . ونحوه في الصحيحين من رواية المغيرة بن شعبة 
98. `Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said: The Prophet (PBUH)would stand (in prayer) so long that the skin of his feet would crack. I asked him, "Why do you do this while your past and future sins have been forgiven?'' He said, "Should I not be a grateful slave of Allah?'' 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary: 
1. All the Prophets were free from major sins. However, some religious scholars justify some of their minor sins with plausible reasons but the majority of them maintain that they are free from all sins because of their innocence. In this situation, it does not make any sense to speak of their sins. But the fact of the matter is quite different. Anything short of excellent done by them is counted as a sin. 

2. The more one is rewarded by Allah, the greater the proportion of one's gratitude of Allah for His Benevolence should be. The best form of doing so is that one should not only be highly obedient and dutiful in the performance of the obligations but also add maximum voluntary prayers to them. 

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ المؤمن القوي خير وأحب إلى الله من المؤمن الضعيف وفي كل خير احرص على ما ينفعك واستعن بالله ولا تعجز وإن أصابك شيء فلا تقل لو أني فعلت كان كذا وكذا ولكن قل : قدر الله وما شاء فعل فإن لو تفتح عمل الشيطان ] رواه مسلم 
100. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "A strong believer is better and dearer to Allah than a weak one, and both are good. Adhere to that which is beneficial for you. Keep asking Allah for help and do not refrain from it. If you are afflicted in any way, do not say: `If I had taken this or that step, it would have resulted into such and such,' but say only: `Allah so determined and did as He willed.' The word `if' opens the gates of satanic thoughts". 
[Muslim]

Commentary: 
1. In this Hadith, goodness is acknowledged in weak as well as strong because the real Faith is a common feature of both. The one who is stronger is, however, better with Allah for the reason that he is more active and energetic in the matter of noble deeds and performance of ritual prayers, obligatory as well as voluntary. 

2. This Hadith ordains that in case of trouble, one should exercise patience and show submission and obedience rather than saying `ifs' and `buts' about it, because it provides Satan with a chance to mislead the sufferer. 

101 - السابع عنه رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قال : [حجبت النار بالشهوات وحجبت الجنة بالمكاره ] متفق عليه 
وفي رواية لمسلم : [ حفت ] بدل [ حجبت ] وهو بمعناه : أي بينه وبينها هذا الحجاب فإذا فعله دخلها 
101. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said. "The (Hell)Fire is surrounded with all kinds of desires and passions, while Jannah is surrounded with adversities.'' 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary: The way to Hell is littered with these evils. When a person crosses them, it is an indication that he has entered into Hell. On the other side exists a series of griefs and calamities, Islamic injunctions and obligations (the compliance with which is often irksome for man) impede his way to Jannah. When a person endures them with patience he, in fact, overcomes those obstacles and becomes eligible for Jannah. 

102 - الثامن عن أبي عبد الله حذيفة بن اليمان رضي الله عنه قال : صليت مع النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم ذات ليلة فافتتح البقرة فقلت يركع عند المائة ثم مضى فقلت يصلي بها في ركعة فمضى فقلت يركع بها ثم افتتح النساء فقرأها ثم افتتح آل عمران فقرأها يقرأ مترسلا : إذا مر بآية فيها تسبيح سبح وإذا مر بسؤال سأل وإذا مر بتعوذ تعوذ ثم ركع فجعل يقول : [ سبحان ربي العظيم ]فكان ركوعه نحوا من قيامه ثم قال [ سمع الله لمن حمده ربنا لك الحمد ] ثم قام قياما طويلا قريبا مما ركع ثم سجد فقال : [ سبحان ربي الأعلى ] فكان سجوده قريبا من قيامه . رواه مسلم 
102. Hudhaifah (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: I offered Salat(Tahajjud - optional night prayer) with the Prophet (PBUH) one night, and he started reciting (Surat) Al-Baqarah. I thought that he would bow at the end of one hundred Verses, but he continued reciting; I, then, thought that he would perhaps recite the whole (Surah) in a Rak`ah, but he proceeded on, and I thought he would perhaps bow on completing (this Surah); he then started (reciting Surat) An-Nisa'; he then started (Surat) Al-`Imran and his recitation was unhurried. And when he recited the Verses which referred to the Glory of Allah, he glorified Him (by saying Subhan Allah - My Rubb, the Supreme is far removed from every imperfection), the Great, and when he recited the Verses that mention supplication, he supplicated, and when he recited the Verses that mention seeking Refuge of the Rubb, he sought (His) Refuge. Then he bowed and said: "My Rubb, the Supreme is far removed from every imperfection (Subhana Rabbiyal-Azim);'' his bowing lasted about the same length of time as his standing(and then on returning to the standing posture after Ruku`) he said: "Allah listened to him who praised Him (Sami` Allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal hamd).'' Then he stood about the same length of time as he had spent in bowing. He then prostrated himself and said: "My Rubb, the Supreme is far removed from every imperfection (Subhana Rabbiyal-A`la),'' and his prostration lasted nearly the same length of time as his standing. 
[Muslim]

Commentary: This Hadith makes the following three points clear: 

Firstly, optional Salat can also be performed in congregation. 

Secondly, as is commonly believed, it is not essential that in Salat, the Ayat of Qur'an are recited according to their sequence in the Book. It is permissible to recite them regardless of their sequence in the Qur'an.





Thirdly, it is commendable to relatively prolong the optional prayers. 

العاشر عن أنس رضي الله عنه عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم قال : يتبع الميت ثلاثة : أهله وماله وعمله فيرجع اثنان ويبقى واحد : يرجع أهله وماله ويبقى عمله ] متفق عليه 
104. Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah(PBUH) said, "Three follow a dead body: members of his family, his possessions and his deeds. Two of them return and one remains with him. His family and his possessions return; his deeds remain with him". 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary: This Hadith induces one to perform such deeds which always remain with him in the grave, where every being and thing leaves one and he is all alone in the grave. What is left is his good deeds which become the means of refuge and salvation. 

105 - الحادي عشر عن ابن مسعود رضي الله عنه قال قال النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ الجنة أقرب إلى أحدكم من شراك نعله والنار مثل ذلك ] رواه البخاري 
105. Ibn Mas`ud (May Allah be pleased with him)reported: The Prophet(PBUH) said, "Jannah is nearer to anyone of you than your shoe-lace, and so is the(Hell) Fire". 
[Al-Bukhari]

Commentary: Going to Jannah or Hell is the result of one's own actions, both are close to everyone. One will be admitted into Jannah if he does good deeds, and will be consigned to Hell if he does evil. After death, one's entitlement for Jannah or Hell will be decided. 

106 - الثاني عشر عن أبي فراس ربيعة بن كعب الأسلمي خادم رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم ومن أهل الصفة رضي الله عنهم قال : كنت أبيت مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم فآتيه بوضوئه وحاجته . فقال : [ سلني ] فقلت : أسألك مرافقتك في الجنة . فقال : [ أو غير ذلك ؟ ] قلت : هو ذاك . قال : [فأعني على نفسك بكثرة السجود ] رواه مسلم 
106. Rabi`ah bin Ka`b Al-Aslami (May Allah be pleased with him (a servant of the Messenger of Allah and also one of the people of As-Suffah) said:) I used to spend my night in the company of Messenger of Allah(PBUH) and used to put up water for his ablutions. One day he said to me, "Ask something of me.'' I said: "I request for your companionship in Jannah". He inquired, "Is there anything else?'' I said, "That is all.'' He said, "Then help me in your request by multiplying your prostrations". 
[Muslim]

Commentary: There was a terrace at the end of the Prophet's Mosque which is called As-Suffah in Arabic. People of poor means who were taught by him used to live there. This Hadith evidently shows the importance of good actions and faithful following of the practice of the Prophet (PBUH). Leave others alone, in the absence of these two, even such people will not be close to the Prophet (PBUH) who used to be all the time with him. It is not difficult to visualize the fate of those who neither perform good deeds nor follow in the footsteps of the Prophet (PBUH)

107 - الثالث عشر عن أبي عبد الله ويقال : أبو عبد الرحمن ثوبان مولى رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم رضي الله عنه قال سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم يقول : [ عليك بكثرة السجود فإنك لن تسجد لله سجدة إلا رفعك الله بها درجة وحط عنك بها خطيئة ] رواه مسلم 
107. Thauban (May Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying, "Perform Salah more often. For every prostration that you perform before Allah will raise your position one degree and will remit one of your sins". 
[Muslim]

Commentary: Abundance of prostrations means strict observance of Salat and performance of obligatory and optional and voluntary prayers, it is a means for atonement of sins and the elevation of one's status in this life and the Hereafter. 

108 - الرابع عشر عن أبي صفوان عبد الله بن بسر الأسلمي رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [خير الناس من طال عمره وحسن عمله ] رواه الترمذي وقال : حديث حسن 
108. `Abdullah bin Busr Al-Aslami (May Allah be pleased with him) said: Messenger of Allah (PBUH)said, "The best of people is one whose life is long and his conduct is good". 
[At-Tirmidhi]

Commentary: 
1. Longevity of life is a blessing, provided it is accompanied by Faith and good deeds; otherwise, the longer life one has, the greater will be the number of sins. Such a long life is disastrous. 

2. Those who do not realize the blessings of longevity of life will be losers. 

109 - الخامس عشر عن أنس رضي الله عنه قال غاب عمي أنس بن النضر رضي الله عنه عن قتال بدر فقال : يا رسول الله غبت عن أول قتال قاتلت المشركين لئن الله أشهدني قتال المشركين ليرين الله ما أصنع . فلما كان يوم أحد انكشف المسلمون فقال : اللهم أعتذر إليك مما صنع هؤلاء ( يعني أصحابه) وأبرأ إليك مما صنع هؤلاء ( يعني المشركين ) ثم تقدم فاستقبله سعد ابن معاذ فقال : يا سعد بن معاذ الجنة ورب النضر إني أجد ريحها من دون أحد فقال سعد : فما استطعت يا رسول الله ما صنع قال أنس : فوجدنا به بضعا وثمانين ضربة بالسيف أو طعنة برمح أو رمية بسهم ووجدناه قد قتل ومثل به المشركون فما عرفه أحد إلا أخته ببنانه . قال أنس : كنا نرى أو نظن أن هذه الآية نزلت فيه وفي أشباهه (الأحزاب 23 ) : { من المؤمنين رجال صدقوا ما عاهدوا الله عليه} إلى آخرها . متفق عليه 
قوله [ ليرين الله ] روي بضم الياء وكسر الراء : أي ليظهرن الله ذلك للناس . وروي بفتحهما ومعناه ظاهر والله أعلم 
109. Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) said: My uncle Anas bin An-Nadr (May Allah be pleased with him) was absent from the battle of Badr and he said: "O Messenger of Allah! I was absent from the first battle you fought against the pagans, and if Allah let me participate in a battle against the pagans, Allah will see what I do.'' So he encountered the day of Uhud Battle. The Muslims left the positions (the Prophet (PBUH) told them to keep) and were defeated, he said: "O Allah! excuse these people (i.e., the Muslims) for what they have done, and I am clear from what the pagans have done". Then he went forward with his sword and met Sa`d bin Mu`adh(fleeing) and said to him: "By the Rubb of the Ka`bah! I can smell the fragrance of Jannah from a place closer than Uhud Mount". Sa`d said: "O Messenger of Allah, what he did was beyond my power". Anas said: "We saw over eighty wounds on his body caused by stabbing, striking and shooting of arrows and spears. We found that he was killed, and mutilated by the polytheists. Nobody was able to recognize him except his sister who recognized him by the tips of his fingers.'' Anas(May Allah be pleased with him) said: "We believe that the Ayah `Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah [i.e., they have gone out for Jihad (holy fighting), and showed not their backs to the disbelievers]...'(33:23), refers to him and his like". 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary: 
1. This Hadith brings into prominence the exemplary life of the Companions of the Prophet (PBUH) for martyrdom and Jannah. 

2. It also shows the enthusiasm of the believers for dedicating their lives to good deeds and their fervent supplication for their acceptance by Allah.
