Volume 8, Book 73, Number 81:
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
Once the Prophet went through the grave-yards of Medina and heard the voices of two humans
who were being tortured in their graves. The Prophet said, “They are being punished, but they are
not being punished because of a major sin, yet their sins are great. One of them used not to save
himself from (being soiled with) the urine, and the other used to go about with calumnies
(Namima).” Then the Prophet asked for a green palm tree leaf and split it into two pieces and placed
one piece on each grave, saying, “I hope that their punishment may be abated as long as these pieces
of the leaf are not dried.”

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “If Allah loves a person, He calls Gabriel saying: ‘Allah loves so and so; O Gabriel,
love him.’ Gabriel would love him, and then Gabriel would make an announcement among the res –
idents of the Heaven, ‘Allah loves so-and-so, therefore, you should love him also.’ So, all the residents
of the Heavens would love him and then he is granted the pleasure of the people of the earth.”

Narrated Anas bin Malik:
The Prophet said, “None will have the sweetness (delight) of Faith (a) till he loves a person and
loves him only for Allah’s sake, (b) and till it becomes dearer to him to be thrown in the fire than to
revert to disbelief (Heathenism) after Allah has brought him out of it, (c) and till Allah and His
Apostle become dearer to him than anything else.”

know what town is this town?” They (the people) replied, “Allah and His Apostle know better.” He

this month?” They (the People) replied, “Allah and His Apostle know better.” He said, ”This is the Sac –
red (forbidden) month .” He added, “Allah has made your blood, your properties and your honor Sac –

town of yours.” (See Hadith No. 797, Vol. 2.)
