Fath al-Rabbani

Under this chapter, the following sub-chapters and hadiths have been mentioned.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jarir bin Abdullah Bajali, he says: One day we were present in the service of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and the day was just beginning. Some people came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who had no shoes on their feet and were not fully clothed; they had wrapped themselves in blankets or cloaks and had swords hanging from their shoulders. Most of them, or rather all of them, were from the tribe of Mudar. When the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, saw their state of poverty, his blessed face changed. He went into his house, and when he came out, he ordered Sayyiduna Bilal, may Allah be pleased with him, to give the call to prayer and the iqamah. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, led the prayer, and after that he delivered a sermon and recited these verses: {یَااَیُّہَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوْا رَبَّکُمُ الَّذِی خَلَقَکُمْ مِنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَۃٍ إِنَّ اللّٰہَ کَانَ عَلَیْکُمْ رَقِیْبًا وَخَلَقَ مِنْھَا زَوْجَھَا وَبَثَّ مِنْھُمَا رِجَالًا کَثِیْرًا وَّنِسَائً وَّ اتَّقُوْا اللّٰہَ الَّذِیْ تَسَائَ لُوْنَ بِہٖوَالْاَرْحَامَاِنَّاللّٰہَکَانَعَلَیْکُمْ رَقِیْبًا۔} That is: O people! Fear your Lord, who created you from a single soul and created from it its mate and spread from both of them many men and women. And fear Allah, through whom you ask one another, and the ties of kinship. Surely Allah is ever an Observer over you. He also recited this verse from Surah Al-Hashr: {یَا اَیُّھَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا اتَّقُوْا اللّٰہَ وَلْتَنْظُرْ نَفْسٌ مَا قَدَّمَتْ لِغَدٍ وَّاتَّقُوْا اللّٰہَ اِنَّ اللّٰہَ خَبِیْرٌ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ۔} That is: O you who believe! Fear Allah, and let every soul look to what it has sent forth for tomorrow, and fear Allah. Surely Allah is well aware of what you do. Upon hearing this address, someone brought a dinar, someone a dirham, someone brought clothing, someone brought a measure of wheat, and someone brought a measure of dates, and someone even brought a piece of a date. Meanwhile, an Ansari came carrying a bag (which was so heavy that) it seemed his hand would be unable to carry it, and indeed he became unable to carry it. Seeing this, people began to bring charity one after another, until two heaps of food and clothing were formed. I saw that the face of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was shining and looked golden. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever introduces a good practice in Islam, he will have the reward for it and the reward of all those who act upon it after him, without their rewards being diminished in the least. And whoever introduces a bad practice in Islam, he will bear the burden of it and the burden of all those who act upon it after him, without their burdens being diminished in the least.
