Hadith of the Day

Anas ibne-Malik Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said to one of his companions: Are you married, O! so and so? He said: No, By Allah, O Rasulallah, nor do I have anything to get married. Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam asked: Have you not memorized Qul huwal lahu ahad? He replied: Indeed I have! Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: This is one-third of the Qur'an. Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam asked: Have you not memorized Idha Ja a nasrullahi wal fath? (Nasr:110). He replied: Indeed I have! He said: It is one-fourth of the Qur'an. Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam asked: Have you not memorized Qul ya ayyuhal kafirun? (Kafirun: 109). He replied: Indeed I have! Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: It is one-fourth of Qur'an. Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam asked: Have you not memorized Idha zulzilatil ardu (Surah: 99)? He replied: Indeed I have! Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: It is one-fourth of the Qur'an. Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said: (So) Get Married! Get Married! (Tirmidhi: 2895)   Note: The objective of Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam in saying this was to point out the value of these Surahs; when you have them memorized, then you are not a poor, but a wealthy man, and should get married.
