The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah will say to the people of Paradise, "O the people of Paradise!" They will say,
'Labbaik, O our Lord, and Sa`daik, and all the good is in Your Hands!' Allah will say, "Are you
satisfied?' They will say, 'Why shouldn't we be satisfied, O our Lord as You have given us what You
have not given to any of Your created beings?' He will say, 'Shall I not give you something better than
that?' They will say, 'O our Lord! What else could be better than that?' He will say, 'I bestow My
Pleasure on you and will never be angry with you after that.' "
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 97, Hadith 143
Two persons, a Muslim and a Jew, quarreled. The Muslim said, "By Him Who gave Muhammad
superiority over all the people! The Jew said, "By Him Who gave Moses superiority over all the
people!" At that the Muslim raised his hand and slapped the Jew on the face. The Jew went to the
Prophet and informed him of what had happened between him and the Muslim. The Prophet (ﷺ) sent for
the Muslim and asked him about it. The Muslim informed him of the event. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not
give me superiority over Moses, for on the Day of Resurrection all the people will fall unconscious
and I will be one of them, but I will. be the first to gain consciousness, and will see Moses standing
and holding the side of the Throne (of Allah). I will not know whether (Moses) has also fallen
unconscious and got up before me, or Allah has exempted him from that stroke."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 44, Hadith 2
Al-Miswar bin Makhrama and `Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Aswad bin 'Abu Yaghuth said (to me), "What
forbids you to talk to `Uthman about his brother Al-Walid because people have talked much about
him?" So I went to `Uthman and when he went out for prayer I said (to him), "I have something to say
to you and it is a piece of advice for you " `Uthman said, "O man, from you." (`Umar said: I see that
he said, "I seek Refuge with Allah from you.") So I left him and went to them. Then the messenger of
`Uthman came and I went to him (i.e. `Uthman), `Uthman asked, "What is your advice?" I replied,
"Allah sent Muhammad with the Truth, and revealed the Divine Book (i.e. Quran) to him; and you
were amongst those who followed Allah and His Apostle, and you participated in the two migrations
(to Ethiopia and to Medina) and enjoyed the company of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and saw his way. No doubt,
the people are talking much about Al-Walid." `Uthman said, "Did you receive your knowledge
directly from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ?" I said, "No, but his knowledge did reach me and it reached (even) to a
virgin in her seclusion." `Uthman said, "And then Allah sent Muhammad with the Truth and I was
amongst those who followed Allah and His Apostle and I believed in what ever he (i.e. the Prophet)
was sent with, and participated in two migrations, as you have said, and I enjoyed the company of
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and gave the pledge of allegiance him. By Allah! I never disobeyed him, nor did I
cheat him till Allah took him unto Him. Then I treated Abu Bakr and then `Umar similarly and then I
was made Caliph. So, don't I have rights similar to theirs?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Then what are
these talks reaching me from you people? Now, concerning what you mentioned about the question of
Al-Walid, Allah willing, I shall deal with him according to what is right." Then he called `Ali and
ordered him to flog him, and `Ali flogged him (i.e. Al-Walid) eighty lashes.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 62, Hadith 46
“When you go to your bed, perform the Wudu’ as you would perform for Salat. Then lie on your right side, then say: ‘O Allah, I submit my face to You, and I entrust my affair to You, and I lay myself down relying upon You, hoping in You and fearing You. There is no refuge nor escape from You except to You. I believe in Your Book which You have revealed, and in Your Prophet whom You have sent (Allāhumma aslamtu wajhī ilaika wa fawwaḍtu amrī ilaika, wa alja’tu ẓahrī ilaika, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilaika, lā malja’a wa lā manjā minka illā ilaika, āmantu bikitābikalladhī anzalta wa bi-nabiyykalladhī arsalt).’ And if you die that night, you shall die upon the Fitrah” - Al-Bara’ said: I repeated it to retain it in memory, “So I said: ‘I believe in Your Messenger whom You have sent.’” He said: “So he (ﷺ) struck with his hand upon my chest, then said: ‘And in Your Prophet whom You have sent.’”
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 48, Hadith 205
"Kill him." They said: "O Messenger of Allah, he only stole (something)." He said: "Kill him." They said: "O Messenger of Allah, he only stole (something)." He said: "Cut off his hand." Then he stole again, and his foot was cut off. Then he stole at the time of Abu Bakr, untilo all his extremities had been cut off. Then he stole a fifth time, and Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "The Messenger of Allah knew better about him when he said: 'Kill him."' Then he handed him over to some young men of Quraish to kill him, among whom was 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair who liked to be in a position of leadership. He said: "Put me in charge of them," so they put him in charge of them and when he struck him, they would strike him, until they killed him.
