seventeenth hadith (97)
The Messenger of God, may God give him blessings and peace, said:
There are three kinds of people whose requests are never rejected:
he who fasts until his fast is broken, the imam who is just, and he
who has suffered oppression.
God raises up their request towards Him beyond the clouds,
and opens the gates of Heaven for it. The Lord then says: “By My
Might, I shall indeed help you, even though it may take a while.”
Reported by al-Tirmidh¨, according to Ab¬ Hurayra.
eighteenth hadith (98)
The Prophet of God, may God give him blessings and peace, explained with regard
to God’s saying: “On the day when We shall call all men with their
leader (imåm)” 6 :
One of them will be called, and he will be given his book in his right
hand. He will have his body extended by 60 cubits, and his face will
be graced with light, and upon his head will be placed a crown of
shimmering pearl. When he goes off to his companions, they will
see him coming from far away, and cry out: “O God, grant us such
as this, and give us such a blessing.”
Then He grants it to them, saying: “Rejoice! For each one of
you shall have the like of this.”
As for the man without faith, his face will turn black, and he will
have his body extended by 60 cubits according to the form of Adam.
