“He who is not merciful to others, will not be treated mercifully.”

Sahih Muslim (Volume 8, Book 73, Number 42)

“Teach me a word that i can say.”

The Messenger (Sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) told him to say:

‘There is none worthy of worship but Allah, Who has no partner, Allah is the Great, the Most Great, and praise is to Allah in abundance, glory is to Allah, Lord of the worlds. There is no power and no might but by Allah the Mighty, the Wise.’

The desert Arab said,

“That is for my Lord, but what about me?”

The Prophet told him to say:

‘O Allah forgive me, and have mercy on me, and guide me, and provide for me.’

(Sahih Muslim 4/2072, Abu Dawud reports the same Hadith with the addition: and when the Arab left, The Prophet of Islam said: “He has filled his hands with goodness.” 1/220)

“Any group of people that assemble in one of the Houses of Allah to study the Qur’an, tranquillity will descend upon them, mercy will engulf them, angels will surround them and Allah will make mention of them to those (the angels) in His proximity.”

Muslim

“Whoever is kind, Allah will be kind to him; therefore be kind to man on the earth. He Who is in heaven will show mercy on you.”

Muslim

“Verily, there are one hundred [parts of] mercy for Allah, and it is one part of this mercy by virtue of which there is mutual love between the people and ninety-nine reserved for the Day of Resurrection.”

(Saheeh Muslim, Book 37, Number 6632)

“Paradise and Hell-fire disputed together, and Hell-fire said: ‘In me are the mighty and the haughty.’ Paradise said: ‘In me are the weak and the poor.’ So Allah judged between them, [saying]: ‘You are Paradise, My mercy; through you I show mercy to those I wish. And you are Hell-fire, My punishment; through you I punish those I wish, and it is incumbent upon Me that each of you shall have its fill.’”

Reported by Bukhari, Muslim and Tirmidhi

“Show mercy to those who are on earth, then He Who is in heaven will show mercy unto you.”

Reported by Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi

“Whoever says, ‘Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi,’ one hundred times a day, will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea.”
