Hadeeth means the words, actions, approval or attributes that have been narrated from the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
Narrated Muawiya bin Suwald:
I heard Al-Bara' bin 'Azib saying, "The Prophet (S.A.W) orders us to do seven things and prohibited us from doing seven other things." Then Al-Bara' mentioned the following:--
(1) To pay a visit to the sick (inquiring about his health),
(2) to follow funeral processions,
(3) to say to a sneezer, "May Allah be merciful to you" (if he says, "Praise be to Allah!"),
(4) to return greetings,
(5) to help the oppressed,
(6) to accept invitations,
(7) to help others to fulfill their oaths.

Narrated Ibn Masud (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):
I heard the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) saying, "There is no envy except in two: a person whom Allah has given wealth and he spends it in the right way, and a person whom Allah has given wisdom (i.e. religious knowledge) and he gives his decisions accordingly and teaches it to the others."

On the authority of Uqbah ibn Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: I heard the messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Your Lord delights at a shepherd who, on the peak of a mountain crag, gives the call to prayer and prays. Then Allah (glorified and exalted be He) say: Look at this servant of Mine, he gives the call to prayer and performs the prayers; he is in awe of Me. I have forgiven My servant [his sins] and have admitted him to Paradise. It was related by an-Nasa'i with a good chain of authorities.
(Hadith Qudsi 7)

24th Sha'ban 1437 (31st May 2016)
Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):
The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "The Hour (Day of
Judgment) will not be established till your wealth increases so much so
that one will be worried, for no one will accept his Zakat and the person
to whom he will give it will reply, 'I am not in need of it.' "
Abdullah (b. Mas'ud) (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to us: 0 young men, those among you who can support a wife should marry, for it restrains eyes (from casting evil glances) and preserves one from immorality; but he who cannot afford It should observe fast for it is a means of controlling the sexual desire.
(Muslim Book 8, Hadith 3233)
Rasoolullaah صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “There are two words which are beloved to Allaah, light on the tongue and heavy on the scales. They are: Sub-haanallaahi wa bi-Hamdihee, Sub-haanallaahil `Azheem.” [Narrated in Saheeh al-Bukhaari.]
On the authority of Abu Hamzah Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) - the servant of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) - that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said : "None of you will believe until you love for your brother what you love for yourself."
Related by Bukhari & Muslim Commentary Summary
Written commentary compiled by volunteers utilizing Sh. Jamaal Diwan's audio commentary (see source link below) and English translation of Ibn Daqiq Al-Id's commentary on The Forty Hadeeth of Imam Al-Nawawi.
Golden Rule
This hadeeth is strongly correlated with the Golden Rule which is “do as to others what you want to yourself” and that is to love for your brother what you love for yourself. In this society, we live where people are shy to give advice or get offended to accept advice. When in reality, we should be welcoming in accepting other’s advice and give advice in the best way. This is essential for the fabric of the community and for your personal self.
Accepting the Truth
Is it possible to be better than someone else? There is an authentic narration mentioned in Al Hakim where a companion asks the Prophet (pbuh), “Oh Messenger of Allah, you have seen what is bestowed upon me from beauty, and because of that beauty that has been bestowed upon me, I don’t like anyone else to look better than me. Is that arrogance? Is that transgression?”
The Prophet (pbuh) responds saying, “No, that’s not transgression, that’s not arrogance. What is arrogance or transgression is to the reject the truth when faced with it and to look down on people.”
Based on this response, one of the characteristics of a believer is to accept the truth when they are confronted with it. So, when talking about loving for a brother what you love for yourself, that’s shouldn’t be an issue.
Flaws in Others
Another part of loving your brother what you love for yourself is really pushing the person to seek to rectify the flaws of others. Sometimes when we see flaws for others, instead of hoping, striving, and working toward rectify their difficulties in flaws, we actually exploit them. We take advantage of them and make ourselves feel better. This is actually a disease in the heart that we need to see someone to do something bad in order for us to feel good. Rather, we should fix their problems and love for them to able to grow in their relationship with Allah.
Narrated Abu Huraira (raa) : Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: “Whoever establishes prayers during the nights of Ramadan faithfully out of sincere faith and hoping to attain Allah's rewards (not for showing off), all his past sins will be forgiven.”
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ قَامَ رَمَضَانَ إِيمَانًا وَاحْتِسَابًا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ
(Reference Sahih al-Bukhari 37, In-book reference Book 2 Hadith 30, USC-MSA web (English) reference Vol. 1 Book 2 Hadith 37(deprecated numbering scheme), http://sunnah.com/bukhari/2/30)
Rasoolullaah Sallallaahu `Alayhi wa Sallam said, "Indeed, Allaah Ta`aaala does not take `Ilm away from the people all at once; rather, He takes it away by taking away the `Ulamaa (of Haqq). Until when there remains no `Aalim (of Haqq), the people will take Juhhaal (ignoramuses) as their leaders. These Juhhaal (ignoramuses) will be asked (questions on Deen), and they will issue Fatwaa without possessing any `Ilm. They are astray and they lead others astray.
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Allah said: I have prepared for My righteous servants what no eye has seen and no ear has heard, not has it occurred to human heart. Thus recite if you wish (1): And no soul knows what joy for them (the inhabitants of Paradise) has been kept hidden
(Hadith Qudsi 37)
Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah
27th Sha'ban 1437 (3rd June 2016)
Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):
A man came to the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) and asked, "O Allah's Apostle! Which charity is the most superior in reward?"
He replied, "The charity which you practice while you are healthy, niggardly and afraid of poverty and wish to become wealthy.
Do not delay it to the time of approaching death and then say, 'Give so much to such and such, and so much to such and such.' And it has already belonged to such and such (as it is too late)."
Hadhrat Sa`d ibn `Ubaadah Radhiyallaahu `Anhu said, "If I saw a man with my wife, I would strike him with an unsheathed sword." So Nabi Sallallaahu `Alayhi wa Sallam said (to those present), "Are you amazed at the Ghayrah of Sa`d? I have even more Ghayrah than him, and Allaah has more Ghayrah than me."
[Narrated in Saheeh al-Bukhaari.]
(The English language has no equivalent for the word "Ghayrah". The closest term they have is "protective jealousy", but Ghayrah is more than that....)

Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):
The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "Seven people will be
shaded by Allah under His shade on the day when there will be no shade
except His. They are:
(1) a just ruler;
(2) a young man who has been brought up in the worship of Allah, (i.e.
worship Allah (Alone) sincerely from his childhood),
(3) a man whose heart is attached to the mosque (who offers the five
compulsory congregational prayers in the mosque);
(4) two persons who love each other only for Allah's sake and they meet and
part in Allah's cause only;
(5) a man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for an
illegal sexual intercourse with her and says: I am afraid of Allah;
(6) a person who practices charity so secretly that his left hand does not
know what his right hand has given (i.e. nobody knows how much he has given
in charity).
(7) a person who remembers Allah in seclusion and his eyes get flooded with
tears."

Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "When a woman gives in
charity some of the foodstuff (which she has in her house) without spoiling
it, she will receive the reward for what she has spent, and her husband
will receive the reward because of his earning, and the storekeeper will
also have a reward similar to it. The reward of one will not decrease the
reward of the others."

1st Ramadan 1437 (6th June 2016)
Narrated Hakim bin Hizam (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):
The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "The upper hand is better
than the lower hand (i.e. he who gives in charity is better than him who
takes it).
One should start giving first to his dependents. And the best
object of charity is that which is given by a wealthy person (from the
money which is left after his expenses).
And whoever abstains from asking others for some financial help, Allah will give him and save him from
asking others, Allah will make him self-sufficient."
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever fasted the month of Ramadan out of sincere Faith (i.e. belief) and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his past sins will be forgiven, and whoever stood for the prayers in the night of Qadr out of sincere Faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven ."
