SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 8 > BOOK 73: GOOD MANNERS AND FORM (AL-ADAB)<br />

Allah's Apostle said, "The one who looks after and works for a widow and for a poor person is like<br />

a warrior fighting for Allah's Cause." (The narrator Al-Qa'nabi is not sure whether he also said "Like<br />

the one who prays all the night without slackness and fasts continuously and never breaks his fast.")<br />

Volume 8, Book 73, Number 37:<br />

Narrated Abu Sulaiman and Malik bin Huwairith:<br />

We came to the Prophet and we were (a few) young men of approximately equal age and stayed<br />

with him for twenty nights. Then he thought that we were anxious for our families, and he asked us<br />

whom we had left behind to look after our families, and we told him. He was kindhearted and mer-<br />

ciful, so he said, "Return to your families and teach them (religious knowledge) and order them (to<br />

do good deeds) and offer your prayers in the way you saw me offering my prayers, and when the<br />

stated time for the prayer becomes due, then one of you should pronounce its call (i.e. the Adhan),<br />

and the eldest of you should lead you in prayer.<br />

Volume 8, Book 73, Number 38:<br />

Narrated Abu Huraira:<br />

Allah's Apostle said, "While a man was walking on a road. he became very thirsty. Then he came<br />

across a well, got down into it, drank (of its water) and then came out. Meanwhile he saw a dog<br />

panting and licking mud because of excessive thirst. The man said to himself "This dog is suffering<br />

from the same state of thirst as I did." So he went down the well (again) and filled his shoe (with wa-<br />

ter) and held it in his mouth and watered the dog. Allah thanked him for that deed and forgave him."<br />

The people asked, "O Allah's Apostle! Is there a reward for us in serving the animals?" He said, "(Yes)<br />

There is a reward for serving any animate (living being) ."<br />

Volume 8, Book 73, Number 39:<br />

Narrated Abu Huraira:<br />

Allah's Apostle stood up for the prayer and we too stood up along with him. Then a bedouin<br />

shouted while offering prayer. "O Allah! Bestow Your Mercy on me and Muhammad only and do not<br />

bestow it on anybody else along with us." When the Prophet had finished his prayer with Taslim, he<br />

said to the Bedouin, "You have limited (narrowed) a very vast (thing)," meaning Allah's Mercy.<br />

Volume 8, Book 73, Number 40:<br />
