A piece of silken cloth was given to the Prophet (ﷺ) as a present and the people handed it over amongst
themselves and were astonished at its beauty and softness. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Are you astonished
at it?" They said, "Yes, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)!" He said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, the
handkerchiefs of Sa`d in Paradise are better than it."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 83, Hadith 19

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "(The Prophet) Solomon once said, 'Tonight I will sleep with ninety women,
each of whom will bring forth a (would-be) cavalier who will fight in Allah's Cause." On this, his
companion said to him, "Say: Allah willing!" But he did not say Allah willing. Solomon then slept
with all the women, but none of them became pregnant but one woman who later delivered a halfman.
By Him in Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is, if he (Solomon) had said, 'Allah willing' (all his
wives would have brought forth boys) and they would have fought in Allah's Cause as cavaliers. "

Hind bint `Utba bin Rabi`a said, "O Allah 's Apostle! (Before I embraced Islam), there was no family
on the surface of the earth, I wish to have degraded more than I did your family. But today there is no
family whom I wish to have honored more than I did yours." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "I thought
similarly, by Him in Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is!" Hind said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! (My
husband) Abu Sufyan is a miser. Is it sinful of me to feed my children from his property?" The
Prophet said, "No, unless you take it for your needs what is just and reasonable."
