Narrated Sahl bin Sad:
There was no name dearer to ‘Ali than his nickname Abu Turab (the father of dust). He used to feel
happy whenever he was called by this name. Once Allah’s Apostle came to the house of Fatima but
did not find ‘Ali in the house. So he asked “Where is your cousin?” She replied, “There was something
(a quarrel) between me and him whereupon he got angry with me and went out without having a
midday nap in my house.” Allah’s Apostle asked a person to look for him. That person came, and said,
“O Allah’s Apostle! He (Ali) is sleeping in the mosque.” So Allah’s Apostle went there and found him
lying. His upper body cover had fallen off to one side of his body, and so he was covered with dust.
Allah’s Apostle started cleaning the dust from him, saying, “Get up, O Abu Turab! Get up, Abu
Turab!” (See Hadith No. 432, Vol 1)

Narrated Abu Dhar:
While I was walking with the Prophet at the Hurra of Medina in the evening, the mountain of
Uhud appeared before us. The Prophet said, “O Abu Dhar! I would not like to have gold equal to
Uhud (mountain) for me, unless nothing of it, not even a single Dinar remains of it with me, for
more than one day or three days, except that single Dinar which I will keep for repaying debts. I will
spend all of it (the whole amount) among Allah’s slaves like this and like this and like this.” The
Prophet pointed out with his hand to illustrate it and then said, “O Abu Dhar!” I replied, “Labbaik wa
Sa’daik, O Allah’s Apostle!” He said, “Those who have much wealth (in this world) will be the least re –
warded (in the Hereafter) except those who do like this and like this (i.e., spend their money in char –
ity).” Then he ordered me, “Remain at your place and do not leave it, O Abu Dhar, till I come back.”
He went away till he disappeared from me. Then I heard a voice and feared that something might
have happened to Allah’s Apostle, and I intended to go (to find out) but I remembered the statement
of Allah’s Apostle that I should not leave, my place, so I kept on waiting (and after a while the Proph –
et came), and I said to him, “O Allah’s Apostle, I heard a voice and I was afraid that something might
have happened to you, but then I remembered your statement and stayed (there). The Prophet said,
“That was Gabriel who came to me and informed me that whoever among my followers died without
joining others in worship with Allah, would enter Paradise.” I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Even if he had
committed illegal sexual intercourse and theft?” He said, “Even if he had committed illegal sexual in –
tercourse and theft ‘

The Prophet said, “A man should not make another man get up from his (the latter’s) seat (in a
gathering) in order to sit there.

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:
The Prophet forbade that a man should be made to get up from his seat so that another might sit
on it, but one should make room and spread out. Ibn ‘Umar disliked that a man should get up from
his seat and then somebody else sit at his place.

Narrated Anas bin Malik:
When Allah’s Apostle married Zainab bint Jahsh, he invited the people who took their meals and
then remained sitting and talking. The Prophet pretended to be ready to get up, but the people did
not get up. When he noticed that, he got up, and when he had got up, some of those people got up
along with him and there remained three (who kept on sitting). Then the Prophet came back and
found those people still sitting. Later on those people got up and went away. So I went to the Prophet
and informed him that they had left.
The Prophet came, and entered (his house). I wanted to enter(along with him) but he dropped a
curtain between me and him. Allah then revealed: ‘O you who believe! Do not enter the Prophet’s
Houses until leave is given… (to His statement)… Verily! That shall be an enormity, in Allah’s sight.’
