In the name of God the all Compassionate the Merciful

Forty narrations from the praiseworthy Prophet (p.b.u.h)

O’ the obedient of God! You are like patients, and the Creator of the universe resembles a physician. The things good for the patients are what the physician knows and prescribes for the patients, not those desired and fancied by them. So, surrender to Him in what are His affairs, and you will be among the righteous.

2. Whoever rises in the morning, not being concerned about the affairs of the Moslems, is not one of them. Whoever notices a call to the Moslems for help, and does not respond it, is not a Moslem.

3. The Prophet (p.b.u.h) sent a group to the battlefront. When they returned, the Prophet (p.b.u.h) said: “ Well done! to those who accomplished the minor battle, and are to accomplish the major one.” He was asked: “O the Messenger of God, what is the major battle?” He replied: “ The battle with the inner-self.”

4. When heresies prevail among my followers, it is incumbent upon the scholars to put across their knowledge (to expose them). And, whoever does not do it, may God curse him.

5. The jurisprudents are the trustees of God’s messengers as long as they have not entered into this world. The Prophet (p.b.u.h) was asked what he meant by entering into this world. He replied: “ Following the king. When they did it, beware of them with regards to your religion.”

6. Regarding my followers, I am not worried about them from a believer or a nonbeliever. The belief of the believer stops him from hurting my followers, and the nonbeliever is destroyed by his own ignorance. I am worried about them from a hypocrite.

7. When the day of resurrection occurs, a caller from God calls: “ Where are the oppressors, and their accomplice who put ink in their inkpot and tied their purse or sharpened a pencil for the oppressors. The oppressors and their accomplice are to stand together.”

8. There are values higher than any others, except the value of being killed for the cause of God, higher than which there is no other value.

9. The meanest of people are the ones who sell their eternal life for their temporary ones. And the meanest among them are those who sell their own eternal life for the temporary life of others.
