[8] / [8]: Abu Maalik al-Ash’aree – may Allah be pleased with him – narrated, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
Ritual purification
is half of faith
(i.e half of Prayer).
The
statement al-hamdolillah (i.e. All praise is due to Allah) fills up the scales.
The statements subhaanAllah (i.e. Allah is free from any
imperfection) and al-hamdolillah – combined,
or individually – fill that which is in the Heavens and the Earth.
The
Prayer is light
Charity
is proof.
Patience
is illumination.
The
Qur’aan is a proof for you or against you.
Everyone
starts out the day a vendor of his [or her] soul, either working towards its
salvation, or working towards its ruin.
