Hadeeth 23
On the authority of Abu Malik al-Harith
bin al-Harith al-Asharee (may Allah be pleased with him) who said:
The Messenger of Allah (peace and
blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Purity is half of iman (faith).
‘al-hamdu lillah (praise be to Allah)’ fills the scales, and ‘subhan-Allah (how
far is Allah from every imperfection) and ‘al-hamdulillah (praise be to Allah)’
fill that which is between heaven and earth. And the salah (prayer) is a light,
and charity is a proof, and patience is illumination, and the Qur’an is a proof
either for you or against you. Every person starts his day as a vendor of his
soul, either freeing it or causing its ruin.”
It was related by Muslim.
