Volume 1, Book 10, Number 512:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “In very hot weather delay the Zuhr prayer till it becomes (a bit) cooler because
the severity of heat is from the raging of Hell-fire. The Hell-fire of Hell complained to its Lord say –
ing: O Lord! My parts are eating (destroying) one another. So Allah allowed it to take two breaths,
one in the winter and the other in the summer. The breath in the summer is at the time when you
feel the severest heat and the breath in the winter is at the time when you feel the severest cold.”
Volume 1, Book 8, Number 466:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “The prayer offered in congregation is twenty five times more superior (in re –
ward) to the prayer offered alone in one’s house or in a business center, because if one performs
ablution and does it perfectly, and then proceeds to the mosque with the sole intention of praying,
then for each step which he takes towards the mosque, Allah upgrades him a degree in reward and
(forgives) crosses out one sin till he enters the mosque. When he enters the mosque he is considered
in prayer as long as he is waiting for the prayer and the angels keep on asking for Allah’s forgiveness
for him and they keep on saying: ‘O Allah! Be Merciful to him, O Allah! Forgive him, as long as he
keeps on sitting at his praying place and does not pass wind. (See Hadith No. 620).

Narrated Abu Huraira:
A black man or a black woman used to sweep the mosque and he or she died. The Prophet asked
about her (or him). He was told that she (or he) had died. He said, “Why did you not inform me?
Show me his grave (or her grave).” So he went to her (his) grave and offered her (his) funeral pray –
er.”
