"Shall I inform you of the gravest of the major sins?*" He repeated this three times. They said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "Associating partners with Allah and undutifulness to parents." He was reclining and then sat up and said: "And indeed, the false statement." He repeated it so many times that we wished he would stop. “Avoid the seven destructive sins*” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, what are they?” He said: “Associating partners with Allah; magic (sorcery); killing a person whose killing Allah has prohibited except by legal right; consuming usury; devouring the property of an orphan; fleeing from the battlefield; and slandering chaste, innocent, and believing women.” "Beware of false thought, for false thought is the most untruth speech*. Do not search for the faults of one another, do not spy on one another, do not envy one another, do not turn your backs on one another, do not harbor hatred for one another, and be, O slaves of Allah, brothers." "A scandalmonger will not enter Paradise." "The most hated person in the sight of Allah is the most quarrelsome person." "Verily, Allah gives respite to the oppressor, but when He seizes him, He does not release him*." Then, he recited: {Such is the seizing of your Lord when He seizes the towns that are given to wrongdoing; His seizing is surely painful and severe.} [Surat Hūd: 102]" The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade qaza‘ (shaving part of one's head and leaving other parts unshaven). : . . : Injustice will be excessive darkness on the Day of Judgment "Reviling a Muslim is Fusūq (deobedience) and fighting him is Kufr (disbelief)." It is one of the major sins when a man abuses his parents. It was asked: Would a man ever abuse his parents? He replied: Yes. He abuses the father of another man, who in return abuses his father, and he abuses his mother, and so the latter abuses the former’s mother Whoever listens to the talk of some people while they dislike that, molten lead shall be poured into his ears on the Day of Judgment Woe to him who speaks and tells lies so as to make people laugh thereby. Woe to him! Woe to him! "Beware of oppression, for oppression will be layers of darkness on the Day of Judgment; beware of stinginess, as stinginess ruined those before you*. It incited them to shed their blood and regard the unlawful as lawful." On the Day of Resurrection, there will be three categories of people whom Allah will not speak to, purify, or look at Anyone has an atom's weight of arrogance in his heart will not enter Paradise "Do you know who the bankrupt is?*" They said: "The bankrupt among us is the one who has neither money nor belongings." He said: "Verily, the bankrupt in my Ummah is the one who comes on the Day of Resurrection with prayers, fasting, and Zakah, but he comes while he has hurled abuse at this one, slandered that one, unlawfully consumed the wealth of this one, shed the blood of that one, and beat this one. So, this one will be given of his good deeds and that one will be given of his good deeds. If his good deeds run out before justice is fulfilled, some of their sins will be cast upon him and then he will be thrown into Hellfire." "Whoever reports a Hadīth on my authority that is thought to be false is one of the two liars." If you pursue the faults of the Muslims, you will surely corrupt them, or you will nearly corrupt them Whoever incites a woman against her husband or a slave against his master is not one of us Whoever forsakes his brother for a year is like shedding his blood "Verily, the devil has lost hope of being worshiped by those who engage in prayer in the Arabian Peninsula, but has not lost hope of sowing dissension between them." "A man must not look at another man's ‘Awrah (must-cover body part), nor must a woman look at another woman's ‘Awrah*; neither should two men lie undressed under one attire, nor should two women lie undressed under one attire." "Whoever tells a lie about me intentionally, let him take his seat in Hellfire." : The bankrupt in my Ummah is the one who will come on the Day of Judgment with prayer, fasting and Zakah, but since he hurled abuse at others, accused others of committing adultery without evidence, unlawfully consumed the wealth of others, and shed the blood of others and beat others, his good deeds will be credited to the accounts of others (who suffered at his hands) From the gravest of lies is someone who ascribes himself to other than his biological father, or claims to have seen something in a dream which he actually never saw, or ascribes something to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) which he did not say "If the son of Adam were to possess two valleys full of wealth, he would seek the third*. Nothing can fill his belly except dust, and Allah accepts the repentance of whoever repents." Whoever exalts himself over others and walks with a swaggering gait (with pride), will meet Allah while He is angry with him While a man was walking, dressed in fine clothes and admiring himself, with his hair well-combed . The one who boasts of receiving what he has not been given is like the one who has put on two garments of falsehood When two people insult each other, the one who started will be the sinner until the oppressed exceeds the limits A man was brought to him, and it was said: This is so-and-so, and his beard is dripping with wine. Thereupon he said: We have been prohibited from spying. However, if we see something evident, we will act upon it It is unlawful for a Muslim to abandon his brother for more than three (days); so whoever abandons more than three then dies will enter the Hellfire "Verily, Allah tortures those who torture people in this world." Whoever beats his slave boy or slaps him for something that he has not done, then the expiation for that is to set him free The sanctity of the wives of the Mujāhids for those who stay behind is like the sanctity of their own mothers When you see those who praise others, throw dust upon their faces The majority of the hypocrites of this Ummah are its reciters I said to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): Sufficient for you that Safiyyah is such-and-such, —one of the narrators said: She meant "short"—so he said: @"You have said a word that, if it were mixed with the water of the sea, it would taint it."* She said: And I mimicked a person for him, and he said: "I would not like to mimic a person, even if I were given such-and-such." "Indeed, the cursers will not be witnesses or intercessors on the Day of Judgment."
