http://islamicweb.com/quran/hadith_qudsi.htm

Hadith Qudsi 14:

On the authority of Abu Harayrah (may Allah [The Most High] be pleased with him) from the Prophet, who said: 

Allah (glorified and exalted be He) has supernumerary angels who rove about seeking out gatherings in which Allah's name is being invoked: they sit with them and fold their wings round each other, filling that which is between them and between the lowest heaven. When [the people in the gathering] depart, [the angels] ascend and rise up to heaven. He (the Prophet p.b.u.h.) said: 

Then Allah (mighty and sublime be He) asks them - [though] He is most knowing about them: From where have you come? 

And they say: We have come from some servants of Yours on Earth: they were glorifying You (Subhanallah), exalting you (Allahu akbar), witnessing that there is no god but You (La ilaha illa llah), praising You (AlHamdu lillah), and asking [favours] of You. 

He says: And what do they ask of Me? 

They say: They ask of You Your Paradise. 

He says: And have they seen My Paradise? 
They say: No, O Lord. 

He says: And how would it be were they to have seen My Paradise! 
They say: And they ask protection of You. 

He says: From what do they ask protection of Me? 
They say: From Your Hell-fire, O Lord. 

He says: And have they seen My Hell-fire? 
They say: NO. 

He says: And how would it be were they to have seen My Hell-fire: 
They say: And they ask for Your forgiveness. 

He (the Prophet p.b.u.h) said: Then He says: I have forgiven them and I have bestowed upon them what they have asked for, and I have granted them sanctuary from that from which they asked protection. 

He (the Prophet p.b.u.h) said: They say: O Lord, among then is So-and-so, a much sinning servant, who was merely passing by and sat down with them. 

He (the Prophet p.b.u.h) said: And He says: And to him [too] I have given forgiveness: he who sits with such people shall not suffer.

It was related by Muslim (also by al-Bukhari, at-Tirmidhi, and an-Nasa'i).

Hadith Qudsi 13 poverty

http://islamicweb.com/quran/hadith_qudsi.htm

Hadith Qudsi 13:

On the authority of Adiyy ibn Hatim (may Allah [The Most High] be pleased with him), who said: 

I was with the Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah [The Most High] be upon him) and there came to him two men: one of them was complaining of penury (being very poor), while the other was complaining of brigandry (robbery). The Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah [The Most High] be upon him) said: 

As for brigandry, it will be but a short time before a caravan will [be able to] go out of Makkah without a guard. As for penury, the Hour (Day of Judgement) will not arrive before one of you takes his charity around without finding anyone to accept it from him. Then⁽¹⁾ one of you will surely stand before Allah, there being no screen between Him and him, nor an interpreter to translate for him. 

Then He will say to him: Did I not bring you wealth? And he will say: Yes. 
Then He will say: Did I not send to you a messenger? And he will say: Yes. 

And he will look to his right and will see nothing but Hellfire, then he will look to his left and will see nothing but Hell-fire, so let each of you protect himself against Hell-fire, be it with even half a date – and if he finds it not, then with a kind word.

(1) i.e. at the time of the Hour. 

It was related by al-Bukhari.

Hadith Qudsi 12:

On the authority of Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari (may Allah [The Most High] be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah [The Most High] be upon him) said: 

A man from among those who were before you was called to account. Nothing in the way of good was found for him except that he used to have dealings with people and, being well-to do, he would order his servants to let off the man in straitened circumstances [from repaying his debt]. He (the Prophet p.b.u.h) said that Allah [The Most High] said: We are worthier than you of that (of being so generous). Let him off.
