lets start riddles topic that is completely about islam
i go first.
There is a certain piece of flesh in your body,and if that piece
of flesh is impure,then all of your body will be impure.
And if that piece of flesh is pure,then all of your body
will be pure.What is that piece of flesh?
^ Yup, Handhalah radiyallahu ta'ala anh, was given the name Ghaseelul Malaa'ikah.
When the call to the Battle of Uhud was announced and the army was beginning to leave, he was having relations with his wife. In this state he heard the call for war, and heard the army leaving for the battlefield. He left everything at that moment and joined the army. He did not have a chance to do ghusl. He was martyred in the battlefield and because a shaheed is not given a gusl, he too was not given.
The Messenger of Allah salallahu 'alayhi wasallam saw the angels bathing him. He made inquiries and, on returning to Madinah, was informed by his wife of his condition, and thus he was given the name Ghaseelul Malaa'ikah.

SubhanAllah, I knew this story but didn't remember the name of the Sahabi. I tried relating the letters "Gh", "S" and "L." As they form the word "Ghusl" and so I thought "Ghaseel" must have had something to do with purifying one's self because of the same 3 letters.
I had read this in a book called "Islam and Love" by and 'Abdullah Nasih 'Ulwan and here's the excerpt from that book:
Hanzalah ibn `Abi Amer, who married Jamilah bint Ubaiy, was called in the way of Allah in the battle of Uhud. He went immediately, taking his weapon with him, and left his wife on the second day after his marriage. He fought against Abu Sufyan face to face. He was about to kill him. Abu Sufyan asked the Quraish's help, who attacked Hanzalah and killed him. The Prophet said that he found Hanzalah washed by the angels between the earth and the heavens, in a silver bowl with water of muzn. Upon hearing this, the companions hurried to look at Hanzalah. They found his body flowing with water instead of blood. They asked his wife: "What was he doing when he left to fight?" She replied, "He went out to the battle when he was ritually impure."

If Allah helps you, none can overcome you; and if He forsakes you, who is there after Him that can help you? And in Allah (Alone) let believers put their trust.
Surah Ale Imran : 160
It was narrated that Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:
The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) climbed up Uhud, accompanied by Abu Bakr, ‘Umar and ‘Uthmaan, and the mountain shook with them. He struck it with his foot and said: “Stand firm, O Uhud, for there is no one on you but a Prophet or a Siddeeq or two martyrs.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (3483)
Allah (Subhaanahu Wa Taala) does not inspire seeking forgiveness in a slave whom he wishes to punish.
'Uthmaan ibn 'Affan, 'Ali bin Abi Talib, 'Abd al-Rahmaan ibn Awf, Talhah ibn 'Ubaydullah, Sa'ad ibn Abi Waqqas, Zubayr ibn al-Awwam, radiyallahu ta'ala anhum.
1) If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it
2) If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
3) If you do not step forward, you'll always be in the same place
^Take my turn or someone else, I don't have a riddle.
Three simple rules in life:
1) If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it
2) If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
3) If you do not step forward, you'll always be in the same place
next: Regarding whom did the Prophet SAW say: In the past, there were men who used to get Il7aam in their hearts from Allah SWT. If this still happened, [This Sahabi] would be the one in my Ummah to get it?
If Allah helps you, none can overcome you; and if He forsakes you, who is there after Him that can help you? And in Allah (Alone) let believers put their trust.
