Hadith 17790
It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that I will not attribute to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) anything which he did not say. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: Whoever attributes a false statement to me, let him prepare his abode in Hell.
Hadith 17791
وَسَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " رَجُلَانِ مِنْ أُمَّتِي ، يَقُومُ أَحَدُهُمَا مِن اللَّيْلَ يُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ إِلَى الطَّهُورِ وَعَلَيْهِ عُقَدٌ فَيَتَوَضَّأُ ، فَإِذَا وَضَّأَ يَدَيْهِ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ وَجْهَهُ ، انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، وَإِذَا مَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ ، انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، وَإِذَا وَضَّأَ رِجْلَيْهِ ، انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِلَّذِينَ وَرَاءَ الْحِجَابِ : انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي هَذَا يُعَالِجُ نَفْسَهُ يَسْأَلُنِي ، مَا سَأَلَنِي عَبْدِي ، فَهُوَ لَهُ " .
And I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say that there are two men from my Ummah, one of whom wakes up at night and prepares himself for ablution. At that time, there are some knots tied upon him. So when he performs ablution, as he washes his hands, one knot is untied; when he washes his face, another knot is untied; when he wipes his head, another knot is untied; and when he washes his feet, another knot is untied. And Allah, the Exalted, says to those who are unseen: "Look at My servant who has struggled against his own self. Whatever My servant asks of Me, he will be granted."
Hadith 17792

Hadith 17793
It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Aamir (may Allah be pleased with him) that my sister had vowed to perform Hajj on foot, but the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said that Allah has no need for your sister to put herself in hardship; she should ride and offer a sacrifice.

عُقْبَةُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ فِي سَفَرٍ ، فَجَعَلَ لَا يَؤُمُّنَا ، قَالَ : فَقُلْنَا : لَهُ رَحِمَكَ اللَّهُ ، أَلَا تَؤُمُّنَا وَأَنْتَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : لَا ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ :
" مَنْ أَمَّ النَّاسَ فَأَصَابَ الْوَقْتَ ، وَأَتَمَّ الصَّلَاةَ ، فَلَهُ وَلَهُمْ ، وَمَنْ انْتَقَصَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَعَلَيْهِ وَلَا عَلَيْهِمْ " .
Abu Ali Hamdani, may Allah have mercy on him, says that once I set out on a journey, and with us was Hazrat Uqbah bin Amir, may Allah be pleased with him. We said to him, "May Allah's mercy be upon you, you are a companion of the Prophet (peace be upon him), so please lead us in prayer." He refused and said, "I heard the Prophet (peace be upon him) say: Whoever leads the people in prayer, performing it on time and completely, he will receive the reward as well as the followers, but whoever is negligent in it, its burden will be upon him alone, not upon the followers."
