Jurisprudence and Juristic Principles

Practice archery, O progeny of Isma‘īl; your forefather was an archer The best charity is providing the shade of a tent in the cause of Allah, or providing a servant for one who strives in the cause of Allah, or providing a young she-camel for one striving in the cause of Allah He did a little but was greatly rewarded I have told you repeatedly to use the tooth-stick Do not be importunate in asking (for something), for by Allah, if one of you asked me for something and I gave it to him while I am reluctant, there will be no blessing in what I gave him Goodness is tied to the forelocks of horses until the Day of Resurrection Allah forgives everything for the martyr except the debt The upper hand is better than the lower hand You would have received a greater reward had you given her to your maternal uncles Give it to him, for the best among you are those who settle their debts in the best manner His wealth is whatever he spends during his life, while the wealth of his heir is whatever he leaves after his death Make haste to perform the Witr prayer before the morning A man from among those who were before you was called to account (by Allah on the Day of Judgment). No good deeds were found in his record except that he, being a rich man, used to enter into transactions with people and used to command his servants to show leniency towards those who were insolvent. Allah, the Exalted, said: We are more entitled to this (leniency) than him. Pardon him. O Banu Salimah, stay in your neighborhood, your footsteps are recorded for you; stay in your neighborhood, your footsteps are recorded for you May Allah have mercy upon a man who wakes up at night and prays, and awakens his wife. If she refuses, he sprinkles water on her face. May Allah have mercy upon a woman who wakes up at night and prays, and awakens her husband. If he refuses, she sprinkles water on his face Fight in the cause of Allah, for he who fights in the Cause of Allah for a period of time equal to that between two milkings of a she-camel, will be surely admitted to Paradise When one of you stands up for offering voluntary prayer at night and finds it difficult to recite the Qur'an accurately, and he is unaware of what he is reciting, he should lie down There is a gate in Paradise called Ar-Rayyān through which those who fast will enter on the Day of Judgment. No one else will enter through it May Allah have mercy upon Mūsa! He was hurt more than this but remained patient
