Knowledge




Malik :: Book 59 : Hadith 59.1.1
Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard that Luqman al-Hakim made his will and counselled his son, saying, "My son! Sit with the learned men and keep close to them. Allah gives life to the hearts with the light of wisdom as Allah gives life to the dead earth with the abundant rain of the sky."

Middle Course (Wasatiyyah)


Reported by Abu Hurairah (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The religion (of Islam) is easy, and whoever makes the religion a rigour, it will overpower him. So, follow a middle course (in worship); if you can't do this, do something near to it and give glad tidings and seek help (of Allah) at morning and at dusk and some part of night".
[Al-Bukhari]

Search for Knowledge






Reported by Anas (RA): The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "He who goes forth in search of knowledge is considered as struggling in the Cause of Allah until he returns.''
[At-Tirmidhi]

Labah-Labah



 Labah-Labah

Perumpamaan (bagi) orang-orang yang mengambil/menjadikan selain dari Allah (sebagai) penolong mereka, umpama labah-labah yang membuat rumah/sarang (sebagai tempat berlindung) dan sesungguhnya rumah yang paling lemah di antara rumah-rumah lainnya (adalah) rumah/sarang labah-labah jika mereka mengetahui. (Al-‘Aankabuut : 41 )

Purification


The Book of Purification (Kitab Al-Taharah)
Muslim :: Book 2 : Hadith 432 

Abu Malik at-Ash'ari reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Cleanliness is half of faith and al-Hamdu Liliah (Praise be to Allah) fills the scale, and Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah) and al-Hamdu Liliah (Praise be to Allah) fill upwhat is between the heavens and the earth, and prayer is a light, and charity is proof (of one's faith) and endurance is a brightness and the Qur'an is a proof on your behalf or against you. All men go out early in the morning and sell themselves, thereby setting themselves free or destroying themselves.
