If Allah wills good for someone, He makes him suffer from afflictions The strong believer is better and dearer to Allah than the weak believer, and there is good in both If you spend the like of Uhud in gold, Allah will not accept it from you until you believe in predestination, and know that what has befallen you would not have missed you and what has missed you would not have befallen you. If you die on other than this, you will be among the people of Hellfire When Allah wills good for a slave, He uses him before he dies If you get news of the outbreak of a plague in a land, do not enter it, and if it breaks out in a land in which you are, do not leave it Among the matters in respect of which we gave the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) the pledge not to disobey him in any goodness was that we should not scratch our faces, bewail, tear our clothes up, or dishevel our hair (in grief) Adam denied, so his offspring denied; Adam forgot, so his offspring forgot; and Adam sinned, so his offspring sinned When Allah intends to take a slave in a (particular) land, He gives him a reason to go there Verily, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) disavowed the Sāliqah (wailing woman), the Hāliqah (shaving woman), and the Shāqqah (woman tearing garment)
