Volume 1, Book 2, Number 49: Narrated An-Numan bin Bashir: I heard Allahs Apostle saying, Both legal and illegal things are evident but in between them there are doubtful (suspicious) things and most of the people have no knowledge about them. So whoever saves himself from these suspicious things saves his religion and his honor. And whoever indulges in these suspicious things is like a shepherd who grazes (his animals) near the Hima (private pasture) of someone else and at any moment he is liable to get in it. (O people!) Beware! Every king has a Hima and the Hima of Allah on the earth is His illegal (forbidden) things. Beware! There is a piece of flesh in the body if it becomes good (reformed) the whole body becomes good but if it gets spoilt the whole body gets spoilt and that is the heart. Volume 1, Book 2, Number 54: Narrated Jarir bin Abdullah: I gave the pledge of allegiance to Allahs Apostle for the following: 1. offer prayers perfectly 2. pay the Zakat (obligatory charity) 3. and be sincere and true to every Muslim. Volume 1, Book 2, Number 53: Narrated Sad bin Abi Waqqas: Allahs Apostle said, You will be rewarded for whatever you spend for Allahs sake even if it were a morsel which you put in your wifes mouth. Volume 1, Book 2, Number 51: Narrated Umar bin Al-Khattab: Allahs Apostle said, The reward of deeds depends upon the intention and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. So whoever emigrated for Allah and His Apostle, then his emigration was for Allah and His Apostle. And whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he emigrated for. Volume 1, Book 2, Number 47: Narrated Abu Huraira: One day while the Prophet was sitting in the company of some people, (The angel) Gabriel came and asked, What is faith? Allahs Apostle replied, Faith is to believe in Allah, His angels, (the) meeting with Him, His Apostles, and to believe in Resurrection. Then he further asked, What is Islam? Allahs Apostle replied, To worship Allah Alone and none else, to offer prayers perfectly to pay the compulsory charity (Zakat) and to observe fasts during the month of Ramadan. Then he further asked, What is Ihsan (perfection)? Allahs Apostle replied, To worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you cannot achieve this state of devotion then you must consider that He is looking at you. Then he further asked, When will the Hour be established? Allahs Apostle replied, The answerer has no better knowledge than the questioner. But I will inform you about its portents. 1. When a slave (lady) gives birth to her master. 2. When the shepherds of black camels start boasting and competing with others in the construction of higher buildings. And the Hour is one of five things which nobody knows except Allah. The Prophet then recited: Verily, with Allah (Alone) is the knowledge of the Hour--. (31. 34) Then that man (Gabriel) left and the Prophet asked his companions to call him back, but they could not see him. Then the Prophet said, That was Gabriel who came to teach the people their religion. Abu Abdullah said: He (the Prophet) considered all that as a part of faith.
