Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
The Prophet delivered a sermon and said, “Allah gave a choice to one of (His) slaves either to
choose this world or what is with Him in the Hereafter. He chose the latter.” Abu Bakr wept. I said lo
myself, “Why is this Sheikh weeping, if Allah gave choice to one (of His) slaves either to choose this
world or what is with Him in the Here after and he chose the latter?” And that slave was Allah’s
Apostle himself. Abu Bakr knew more than us. The Prophet said, “O Abu Bakr! Don’t weep. The
Prophet added: Abu- Bakr has favored me much with his property and company. If I were to take a
Khalil from mankind I would certainly have taken Abu Bakr but the Islamic brotherhood and friend –
ship is sufficient. Close all the gates in the mosque except that of Abu Bakr.
Volume 1, Book 6, Number 301:
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Once Allah’s Apostle went out to the Musalla (to offer the prayer) o ‘Id-al-Adha or Al-Fitr prayer.
Then he passed by the women and said, “O women! Give alms, as I have seen that the majority of the
dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women).” They asked, “Why is it so, O Allah’s Apostle ?” He replied,
“You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in
intelligence and religion than you. A cautious sensible man could be led astray by some of you.” The
women asked, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?” He said, “Is not
the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man?” They replied in the affirmative. He
said, “This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Isn’t it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast
during her menses?” The women replied in the affirmative. He said, “This is the deficiency in her re –
ligion.”

that a woman asked, “If only two die?” He replied, “Even two (will shield her from the Hell-fire).”

Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
The Prophet said, “When the people of Paradise will enter Paradise and the people of Hell will go
to Hell, Allah will order those who have had faith equal to the weight of a grain of mustard seed to
be taken out from Hell. So they will be taken out but (by then) they will be blackened (charred). Then
they will be put in the river of Haya’ (rain) or Hayat (life) (the Narrator is in doubt as to which is the
right term), and they will revive like a grain that grows near the bank of a flood channel. Don’t you
see that it comes out yellow and twisted”

it? (What is its interpretation) O Allah’s Apostle?” He (the Prophet ) replied, “It is the Religion.”
