The Prophet said, “When you are three persons sitting together, then no two of you should hold
secret counsel excluding the third person until you are with some other people too, for that would
grieve him.”
Volume 8, Book 74, Number 306:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
One day the Prophet divided and distributed something amongst the people whereupon an Ansari
man said, “In this division Allah’s Countenance has not been sought.” I said, “By Allah! I will go (and
inform) the Prophet.” So I went to him while he was with a group of people, and I secretly informed
him of that, whereupon he became so angry that his face became red, and he then said, “May Allah
bestow His Mercy on Moses (for) he was hurt more than that, yet he remained patient.”

Volume 8, Book 74, Number 249:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
When we prayed with the Prophet we used to say: As-Salam be on Allah from His worshipers, As-
Salam be on Gabriel, As-Salam be on Michael, As-Salam be on so-and-so. When the Prophet fin –
ished his prayer, he faced us and said, “Allah Himself is As-Salam (Peace), so when one sits in the
prayer, one should say, ‘At-Tahiyatu-lillahi Was-Salawatu, Wat-Taiyibatu, As-Salamu ‘Alaika aiy –
uhan-Nabiyyu wa Rah-matul-lahi wa Barakatuhu, As-Salamu ‘Alaina wa ‘ala ‘Ibadillahi assalihin,
for if he says so, then it will be for all the pious slave of Allah in the Heavens and the Earth. (Then he
should say), ‘Ash-hadu an la ilaha illalllahu wa ash-hadu anna Muhammadan ‘Abduhu wa rasulu-
hu,’ and then he can choose whatever speech (i.e. invocation) he wishes ” (See Hadith No. 797, Vol. 1)

Volume 8, Book 73, Number 122:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
The Prophet divided and distributed something as he used to do for some of his distributions. A
man from the Ansar said, “By Allah, in this division the pleasure of Allah has not been intended.” I
said, “I will definitely tell this to the Prophet .” So I went to him while he was sitting with his com –
panions and told him of it secretly. That was hard upon the Prophet and the color of his face
changed, and he became so angry that I wished I had not told him. The Prophet then said, “Moses
was harmed with more than this, yet he remained patient.”
Volume 8, Book 73, Number 104:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
‘Umar saw a silken cloak over a man (for sale) so he took it to the Prophet and said, ‘O Allah’s
Apostle! Buy this and wear it when the delegate come to you.’ He said, ‘The silk is worn by one who
will have no share (in the Here-after).’ Some time passed after this event, and then the Prophet sent a
(similar) cloak to him. ‘Umar brought that cloak back to the Prophet and said, ‘You have sent this to
me, and you said about a similar one what you said?’ The Prophet said, ‘I have sent it to you so that
you may get money by selling it.’ Because of this, Ibn ‘Umar used to hate the silken markings on the
garments.

The Prophet said, “Truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. And a
man keeps on telling the truth until he becomes a truthful person. Falsehood leads to Al-Fajur (i.e.

wickedness, evil-doing), and Al-Fajur (wickedness) leads to the (Hell) Fire, and a man may keep on
telling lies till he is written before Allah, a liar.”
