6037 Right Hand. Cf. xvii 71. Then will be the fortunate ones, who spent their lives in goodness and truth: for them the<br />

of the infinite grace, and mercy of Allah. (84.7)<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 6.463 Narrated by<br />

Aisha<br />

Allah's Apostle said, "(On the Day of Resurrection) anyone whose account will be taken will be ruined (i.e. go to Hell)." I said,<br />

"O Allah's Apostle! May Allah make me be sacrificed for you. Doesn't Allah say:<br />

"Then as for him who will be given his record in his right hand, he surely will receive an easy reckoning?"<br />

replied, "That is only the presentation of the accounts; but he whose record is questioned, will be ruined."<br />

Sahih Muslim Hadith<br />

Hadith 233 Narrated by<br />

AbuHurayrah<br />

(84.7-8) He<br />

The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: The Great and the Glorious Lord said (to angels): Whenever My<br />

bondsman intends to commit an evil, do not record it against him, but if he actually commits it, then write it as one evil. And<br />

when he intends to do good but does not do it, then take it down as one act of goodness, but if he does it, then write down<br />

ten deeds (in this record).`<br />

Sahih Muslim Hadith<br />

Hadith 235 Narrated by<br />

AbuHurayrah<br />

Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: When it occurs to my bondsman that he should do a good<br />

deed but he actually does not do it, I record one good deed for him, but if he puts it into practice, I make an entry of ten good<br />

acts in his favour. When it occurs to him to do evil, but he does not commit it, I forgive that. But if he commits it, I record one<br />

evil deed against his name. The Messenger of Allah (p.) observed: The angels said: That bondsman of yours intends to<br />

commit evil, though His Lord is more Vigilant than he. Upon this He (the Lord) said: Watch him; if he commits (evil), write it<br />

against his name, but if he refrains from doing it, write one good deed for him, for he desisted from doing it for My sake. The<br />

Messenger of Allah said: He who amongst you is of good faith, all his good acts are multiplied from ten to seven hundred<br />

times (and are recorded in his name) and all the evils that he commits are recorded as such (i.e. without increase) until he<br />

meets Allah.<br />

Fiqh-us-Sunnah<br />

Fiqh 1.143<br />

Sunnah acts of prayer, Lengthening the First Rak'ah of the Morning Prayer<br />

The Prophet, upon whom be peace, would make the first rak'ah of the morning prayer longer than the second. At times, he<br />

would continue to prolong his recitation until he heard no more footsteps (of the people coming to catch the prayer). He made<br />

the morning prayer the longest of his (obligatory) prayers. This is because its recitation is witnessed by Allah and the angels.<br />

It is also stated that it is witnessed by both the angels who record the daytime deeds and those who record the nighttime<br />

deeds. Whether it is Allah and His angels or His angels alone who witness that time, or does it continue until the morning<br />

prayer is over or until the sun rises cannot be said with certainty, though both of the statements are correct.<br />

Furthermore, since the morning prayer has the least number of rak'ah, the recitation is prolonged to compensate for it. It is<br />

prayed right after sleep. As such, people are well rested. Also, it occurs before they have engaged themselves in their<br />

livelihood and other worldly affairs. The spirit as well as the body is responsive to the words of Allah. This makes the recital<br />

easier to ponder over and comprehend. Also, prayer is the basis and the first of all works. Therefore, it is preferred to prolong<br />

the recital of the morning prayer. This would be recognized by one who is familiar with Islamic law and its aim, purpose and<br />

wisdom.<br />

REFUGE:<br />

4:100 - He who forsakes his home in the cause of Allah finds in the earth many a refuge wide and<br />

spacious: should he die as a refugee from home for Allah and his Apostle his reward becomes<br />

due and sure with Allah: and Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful.<br />
