Favorite Hadith

Abu Dharr Jundub Ibn Janada narrated from the Prophet (saw) related what Allah (SWT) said,"O my slaves ! I have forbidden injustice to Myself and I have made it unlawful between you, so do not wrong one another.

O My slaves ! All of you are misguided except those whom I guide, so seek My guidance and I will guide you.

O My slaves ! All of you are hungry except those I feed, so ask Me for food and I will feed you

O My slaves ! All of you are naked except those that I clothe, so ask Me for clothing and I will clothe you.

O My slaves ! You make mistakes by day and night and I forgive all wrong actions, so ask for My forgiveness and I will forgive you.

O My slaves ! You will never attain to My harm so as to be able to harm me and you will never attain to My benefit so as to benefit Me.

O My slaves ! If the first and last of you, all the Jinn and all the men among you possessed the heart of the most god-fearing man among you, that would not increase My kingdom in any way.

O My slaves ! If the first and last of you, all the Jinn and all the men among you possessed the heart of the most evil man among you, that would not decrease My kingdom in any way.

O My slaves ! If the first and last of you, all the Jinn and all the men among you, were to stand in a single place and ask of Me, I could give to every man what he wants without decreasing what I have any more than a needle when it enters the sea.

O My slaves ! It is your actions for which I call you to account and then repay you in full. So anyone who finds good should praise Allah and anyone who finds something else should blame none but himself." (Muslim)
