“Golden Hadiths” The Hadiths are like bright lights in the vast ocean of Islamic doctrine, guiding believers through life’s challenges. Over the course of centuries, scholars have painstakingly compiled these sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), which provide Muslims worldwide with enduring wisdom and direction. “200 Golden Hadiths” compiled by Abdul Malik Mujahid is one of the collections that has distinguished itself for its lucidity and applicability. This collection provides a road map for ethical living and spiritual development by condensing the core lessons of Islam into succinct and powerful statements.
The Value of Intentionality
“Since intentions determine actions, each person will receive what he intended. A person who moves for the benefit of Allah and His Messenger is doing so on their behalf. And anyone who moves abroad in search of financial gain or to marry a woman is doing so for that reason.”
The Islamic Foundation
“Islam is built upon five: Testifying that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, performing the prayers, giving zakah, making pilgrimage to the House, and fasting the month of Ramadan.”
The Fundamentals of Belief
“None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.”
The Character Virtue of Excellence
“The most complete of the believers in faith are those with the best character, and the best of you are the best in behaviour towards their women.”
The Ignorance of Damage
“None of the people who believe in Allah and the Last Day ought to harm their neighbours. And whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day ought to show his guests a most gracious reception. And those who acknowledge Allah and the Last Day ought to either speak up or remain silent.”
Keeping Life Sanctified
“A believer is not one who eats his fill while his neighbour is hungry.”
The Value of Information
“Seeking knowledge is obligatory upon every Muslim.” “Allah is more pleased with the repentance of His servant than one of you who lost his camel in a barren land and then finds it suddenly.”
The Ability to Wait
“The believer’s affairs are amazing; in fact, all of them are positive and beneficial to everyone but the believer. He is appreciative of good things that come his way, which is beneficial to him. He is patient, which is beneficial to him if something bad happens to him.”
The Advantages of Satisfaction
“Richness is not having many possessions, but richness is contentment of the soul.”
In summary
“200 Golden Hadiths” provides believers with ageless wisdom and direction, capturing the spirit of Islamic teachings. The guiding concepts of faith, morality, and spirituality can be found in these succinct remarks. May these pearls of wisdom never stop motivating and directing us as we seek Allah’s blessings and righteousness both here on Earth and in the Hereafter.
