“Heaven is closer to you than you think, and it is the same for hell.” (Bukhari, Imam Ahmad)

 

Abu Huraira (r.a.) narrates:

Rasulullah (saw) said:

“At the end of days, there will be men, who will prefer the world at the expense of their afterlife. They will cover themselves in sheepskin to seem mild, their speech will be sweeter than sugar, but their hearts will be as stiff as the hearts of wolves. In reference to them, Allah says: ‘Do they think I am unaware? Are they scorning me? I swear by my might that I will send amongst them such a distraction that it will confuse them completely!’” (Tirmidhi)

 

Abu Huraira (r.a.) narrates:

Rasulullah (saw) said:

“There is not one person who dies and does not feel regret. If he had done good deeds, he regrets not doing more, if he were a sinner, he regrets not repenting.” (Tirmidhi)

 

Abu Huraira (r.a.) narrates:

Rasulullah saw said:

“He who fears (his enemy) will travel through the night and reach his destination, finding comfort and safety. Be wary! Allah’s asset is heaven.” (Tirmidhi)

Abu Huraira (r.a.) narrates:

Rasulullah (saw) said:

“He who cries in fear of Allah will not enter hell until the milk goes back into the nipple from which it came out (i.e. never). The dust that has been scattered in the way of Allah will never meet with the fire of hell.” (Tirmidhi)

 

Hani (r.a.) narrates:

When Uthman (r.a.) stood near a grave he would cry until his beard was soaked. Someone once said to him “You do not weep when you hear about heaven and hell but you cry in front of this grave”. He replied: “Rasulullah (saw) said:

‘The grave is the first station of the afterlife, if one is able to pass this station the rest of his journey will be easier, but if one cannot pass this station, the rest of his journey will be more difficult.’

I have never encountered a scene more frightening than the grave.” (Tirmidhi)

 

Abu Zarr (r.a.) narrates:

Rasulullah (saw) said:

“I see what you see not and hear what you hear not. The sky groaned and very rightly so, for there is not a four-finger space in which an angel is not prostrating upon its forehead. I swear by Allah, if you had known what I know you would have laughed less and cried more, you would have left seeking pleasure from your wives in bed and dashed outside in search of Allah’s savior. (Rather than witnessing this) I would have liked to be a tree (cut-down and no longer existent) instead!” (Tirmidhi)

Allah says:

He who places his trust in Allah, Allah will be sufficient for him.(Quran 65:3)

 

Ibn Abbas (r.a.) narrates:

Rasulullah (saw) said:

“Seventy thousand people from my people (ummah) will go to Paradise unquestioned. These are: those who don’t seek prayer for their sick, those who do not believe in bad-luck, and those who place their trust in Allah.” (Bukhari, Muslim, Tirmidhi)

 

Omar (r.a.) narrates:

Rasulullah (saw) said:

“Had you fully placed your trust in Allah you would have found your sustenance easily, like the birds who fly out hungry in the morning and fly back to their nests full by night.” (Tirmidhi, Imam Ahmad, Hakim)

 

Anas (r.a.) narrates:

A man asked Rasulullah (saw): “O Rasulullah, shall I tie my camel first then trust in Allah, or shall I just trust in Allah without tying my camel?”
