He (the Ansari) said: Yes. The voice in the dream said: Make it 25 times each, and add with it, La ilaha illallah (None is worthy of worship but Allah) 25 times. In the morning, when he went and narrated his dream to Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, the Prophet said: Do so. (Tirmidhi: 3413)

One day, when Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam completed the Salat, he turned to them and said: If you know the reward that Allah has for you, then you would like to live with more hunger and needs.

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: Said ibn Musayyib Rahimahullah narrates on the authority of an Ansari Sahabi: I heard Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam saying: When one of you performs Wudu and performs it well and goes out to offer Salat, then for every right foot he lifts, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala records a virtue for him. And for every left foot he puts on the ground, a sin is erased. He has the choice to take short steps or long ones. Then he comes to the masjid and offers Salat in congregation, he will be forgiven: And if he reaches the masjid and finds that people have already offered a part of their Salat, yet a part remains, he joins the remaining part of the Salat, and thereafter completes that which he had missed. He too gets the same reward of Salat. And if he comes to the masjid and finds that people have finished their Salat; so he completes his individual Salat, he too gets the same reward. (Abu Dawud: 563)

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: Abu Umamah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam was asked: O Rasulallah! At what time is Du'a the most readily listened to and accepted?

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: The Imam is responsible and the Muadhdhin is entrusted. O Allah! Guide the Imams and forgive the Muadhdhins. (Abu Dawud: 517)
 
Note: The Imam is responsible, means that besides his personal Salat, he bears the responsibility of the Salat of those behind him. Therefore the Imam should perfect his Salat as far as is humanly possible both outwardly and inwardly. In the light of this important responsibility, Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam made a Du'a for the guidance of the Imams. The Muadhdhin is entrusted means that people have placed their trust on the Muadhdhin regarding the timings of the Salat and Saum. Therefore, it is essential for the Muadhdhin to be particular in calling the Adhan at its proper time. However, being human, he may inadvertently err. Hence, Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam has made a Du'a for his forgiveness. (Badhl-ul-Majhud)

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: If people would have known the virtues of going to the masjid for Zuhr Salat in the scorching heat, then they would certainly compete with one another in going to the masjid. And if they knew the virtues of 'Isha and Fajr Salat, they would indeed go to the masjid for these Salat, even if (due to some illness) they had to drag themselves. (Bukhari: 615)

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: Abu Hurairah Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasulullah ﷺ said: Whenever a slave (of Allah) says La ilaha illallah sincerely, the doors of the skies are opened (for it to ascend) until it reaches the 'Arsh (Throne of Allah, and is readily accepted) provided he abstains from major sins. (Tirmidhi: 3590)
 
Note: To say sincerely means that it is free from pretence and hypocrisy. Abstaining from major sins ensures its rapid acceptance, and even if it is recited without abstaining from the major sins, it is still beneficial and rewarding. (Mirqat-ul-Mafatih)

If Allah wills. He will punish them and if He wills. He will forgive them. (Tirmidhi: 3380)

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: 'Abdullah ibne Mas'ud Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: Verily in the heart of man, a thought is stirred by Shaitan, and a thought is stirred by an angel. As for the thought stirred by
Shaitan, it instigates towards the doing of evil, and falsifying the Truth. And as for the thought stirred by the angel, it urges towards the good, and confirmation of the Truth. So he, who finds in his heart the thought of doing
good and affirming the Truth, should know that it is (guidance) from Allah and should praise (and thank) Allah, and he who finds in his heart the other thought (from Shaitan) should seek refuge in Allah from Shaitan, the
accursed; and then Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam recited this verse from the Qur'an, "Shaitan makes you fear poverty and bids you to commit evil deeds" (Surah Baqarah 2:268) (Tirmidhi: 2988)

And he who interprets the Qur'an according to his own opinion, then let him prepare for himself an abode in the Hell-Fire. (Tirmidhi: 2951)

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: Nabi Muhammad ﷺ said: The heart in which there is no portion of the Qur'an is like a desert house. (Tirmidhi: 2913)
 
Note: One should therefore make an effort to memorise the Qur'an. The least one can do is to memorise as much as is sufficient to perform salaah properly.

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: 'Abdullah ibne 'Amr ibnil 'As Radiyallahu 'anhuma narrates: I heard Rasulullah ﷺ saying: Indeed Allah will summon a man from my Ummah in the presence of the entire creation on the Day of Resurrection and ninety-nine scrolls (of evil deeds) will be unrolled in front of him, while each scroll (length) being as far as the eye can see. He (Allah) will ask: Do you deny anything (written) here? Have My scribes done any injustice to you? He will say: No, my Rabb. Allah will say: Have you got any excuse for it? He will reply: No, my Rabb. Allah will say: We have with us a good deed of yours, and verily, today no injustice will be done to you. Then a piece of paper will be brought forth written therein will be these words:
 
I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

Then Allah will say: Go and have it weighed. He will say: O my Rabb, what is (the weight of) this paper as compared to all of these scrolls? Allah will say: Indeed there will be no injustice to you. The scrolls will then be placed in one pan (of the scale) and the piece of paper in the other pan. Thereupon, compared to the weight of the piece of paper, the pan of scrolls will begin to fly. And nothing can outweigh the name of Allah. (Tirmidhi: 2639)

Hadith of the Day
Hadith: 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr Radiyallahu 'anhuma narrates: I heard Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam saying: He who has two habits will be reckoned by Allah as amongst the grateful and the patient. And if he does not possess these two habits, he will not be reckoned by Allah as amongst the grateful and patient; He who sees his superior in Islam and follows him, and sees one inferior in worldly things and then expresses his thanks to Allah, that out of His Mercy and Grace Allah has kept him in a better state. Then Allah reckons him amongst the grateful and patient. And he who looks to his inferiors concerning religion, and looks to one superior in worldly riches, and expresses sorrow for getting less, then Allah will not record him as amongst the grateful and patient.
