(I) Chapters on Ikhlas:

Hadith 1:

‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab (May Allah be pleased with them) narrated that:
He heard Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: “Three men, amongst those who came before you, set out until night came and they reached a cave, so they entered it. A rock fell down from the mountain and blocked the entrance of the cave. They said: ‘Nothing will save you from this unless you supplicate to Allah by virtue of a righteous deed you have done.’ Thereupon, one of them said: ‘O Allah! I had parents who were old, and I used to offer them milk before any of my children or slaves. One day, I went far away in search of grazing and could not come back until they had slept. When I milked as usual and brought the drink I found them both asleep. I hated to disturb them and also disliked to give milk to my children before them. My children were crying out of hunger at my feet but I awaited with the bowl in my hand for them to wake up. When they awoke at dawn, they drank milk. O Allah! If I did so to seek Your Pleasure, then deliver us from the distress caused by the rock’. The rock moved slightly but they were unable to escape. The next said: ‘O Allah! I had a cousin whom I loved more than any one else (in another version he said: as a man can love a woman). I wanted to have sexual intercourse with her but she refused. Hard pressed in a year of famine, she approached me. I gave her one hundred and twenty dinars on condition that she would yield herself to me. She agreed and when we got together (for sexual intercourse), she said: Fear Allah and do not break the seal unlawfully. I moved away from her in spite of the fact that I loved her most passionately; and I let her keep the money I had given her. O Allah! If I did that to seek Your Pleasure, then, remove the distress in which we are.’ The rock moved aside a bit further but they were still unable to get out. The third one said: ‘O Allah! I hired some labourers and paid them their wages except one of them departed without taking his due. I invested his money in business and the business prospered greatly. After a long time, he came to me and said: O slave of Allah! Pay me my dues. I said: All that you see is yours – camels, cattle, goats and slaves. He said: O slave of Allah! Do not mock at me. I assured him that I was not joking. So he took all the things and went away. He spared nothing. O Allah! If I did so seeking Your Pleasure, then relieve us of our distress.’ The rock slipped aside and they got out walking freely”.

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim| Riyadh-us-Saliheen, Book 1, #12].

Hadith 2:

Narrated ‘Abdul-Malik bin ‘Umair:

from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud that he narrated from his father, from the Prophet (ﷺ) who said: “May Allah beautify a man who hears a saying of mine, so he understands it, remembers it, and conveys it. Perhaps he carries the Fiqh to one who has more understanding than him. There are three with which the heart of a Muslim shall not be deceived. Sincerity in deeds for Allah, giving Nasihah to the A’immah of Muslims, and sticking to the Jama’ah. For indeed the call is protected from behind them.”

[Wordings here are from Jaami’ At-Tirmidhi 2658, Musnad Al-Bazzar 3629, 141, Hasan Li Ghairihi]

Hadith 3:
It was narrated from Mus’ab bin Sa’d, from his father, that he thought he was better than other Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) said:
“Rather, Allah support this Ummah because of their supplication, their Salah, and their sincerity.”

[Sunan An-Nasai 3178, Sahih]

Hadith 4:

Al-Dahhak reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:

إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ أَنَا خَيْرُ شَرِيكٍ فَمَنْ أَشْرَكَ مَعِيَ شَرِيكًا فَهُوَ لِشَرِيكِي

Allah Almighty says: I am the best partner. Whoever associates another partner with me, it is only done for the sake of my partner.

Then, the Prophet said:

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَخْلِصُوا أَعْمَالَكُمْ لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يَقْبَلُ إِلا مَا أُخْلِصَ لَهُ وَلا تَقُولُوا هَذَا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّحِمِ فَإِنَّهَا لِلرَّحِمِ وَلَيْسَ لِلَّهِ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ وَلا تَقُولُوا هَذَا لِلَّهِ وَلِوُجُوهِكُمْ فَإِنَّهَا لِوُجُوهِكُمْ وَلَيْسَ لِلَّهِ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ

O people, make your deeds sincere for Allah Almighty. Verily, Allah does not accept any deed unless it is sincerely for him. Do not say: This is for the sake of Allah, and this is for the sake of my relatives. Verily, it was done for your relatives and none of it was for Allah. Do not say: This is for the sake of Allah and for your sake. Verily, it was done for their sake and none of it was for Allah.

Hadith 5:

It was narrated that Abu ‘Umamah Al-Bahili said:
“A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: ‘What do you think of a man who fights seeking reward and fame – what will he have?’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘He will not have anything.’ He repeated it three times, and the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: ‘He will not have anything.’ Then he said: ‘Allah does not accept any deed, except that which is purely for Him, and seeking His Face.'”

[Sunan An-Nasai 3140, Sunan Abi Dawud 2516, Hasan]

Hadith 6:

Narrated `Umar bin Al-Khattab:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “The (reward of) deeds depend on intentions, and every person will get the reward according to what he intends. So, whoever migrated for Allah and His Apostle, then his migration will be for Allah and His Apostle, and whoever migrated for worldly benefits or for marrying a woman, then his migration will be for what he migrated for.”

(Wordings from Sahih Al-Bukhari, also in Sahih Muslim 1907, Sunan Abi Dawud 2201, Jaami’ At-Tirmidhi 1647, Sunan An-Nasai 75)

Hadith 7:

Anas bin Malik reported on the authority of his father, The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) said “ You left behind some people in Madeenah who did not fail to be with you wherever you went and whatever you spent (of your goods) and whatever valley you crossed. They asked Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) how can they be with us when they are still in Madeenah? He replied “They were declined by a valid excuse.”

(Sunan Abu Dawud 2508, Sahih)

Hadith 8:

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “People will be resurrected (and judged) according to their intentions.”
(Sunan Ibn Majah 4229, Sahih Li Ghairihi)
Hadith 9:

Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
Verily Allah does not look to your faces and your wealth but He looks to your heart and to your deeds.(And he pointed his fingers towards his heart).

Sahih Muslim 2564.
Hadith 10:

Abu Kabshah Al-Anmari narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:
“There are three things for which I swear and narrate to you about, so remember it.” He said: “The wealth of a slave (of Allah) shall not be decreased by charity, no slave (of Allah) suffers injustice and is patient with it except that Allah adds to his honor; no slave (of Allah) opens up a door to begging except that Allah opens a door for him to poverty”- or a statement similar- “And I shall narrate to you a narration, so remember it.” He said: “The world is only for four persons: A slave whom Allah provides with wealth and knowledge, so he has Taqwa of his Lord with it, nurtures the ties of kinship with it, and he knows that Allah has a right in it. So this is the most virtuous rank. And a slave whom Allah provides with knowledge, but He does not provide with wealth. So he has a truthful intent, saying: ‘If I had wealth, then I would do the deeds of so-and-so with it.’ He has his intention, so their rewards are the same. And a slave whom Allah provides with wealth, but He does not provide him with knowledge. [So he] spends his wealth rashly without knowledge, nor having Taqwa of his Lord, nor nurturing the ties of kinship, and he does not know that Allah has a right in it. So this is the most despicable rank. And a slave whom Allah does not provide with wealth nor knowledge, so he says: ‘If I had wealth, then I would do the deeds of so-and-so with it.’ He has his intention, so their sin is the same.”

[Jaami At-Tirmidhi 2325, Musnad Ahmad, Sahih Li Ghairihi]
Hadith 11:

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Allah says, ‘If My slave intends to do a bad deed then (O Angels) do not write it unless he does it; if he does it, then write it as it is, but if he refrains from doing it for My Sake, then write it as a good deed (in his account). (On the other hand) if he intends to do a good deed, but does not do it, then write a good deed (in his account), and if he does it, then write it for him (in his account) as ten good deeds up to seven-hundred times.’ “

(Sahih Al-Bukhari 7501)

Hadith 12:

It was narrated from Abu Ad-Darda’ who attributed it to the Prophet (ﷺ):

“Whoever goes to his bed intending to get up and pray qiyam at night, then sleep overwhelms him until morning, will have recorded that which he intended and his sleep is a charity given to him by his Lord, the Mighty and Sublime.”

[Sunan An-Nasai 1787, Sunan Ibn Majah 1344, Sahih Ibn Hibban 2579]
