    All of you are the slaves of Allah

    Islam has been very careful to abolish slavery but in a quiet and purposeful manner, which has no negative effects on the economy, nor does it conflict with the justice. Rather, it is compatible with mercy and care of the interests of slaves in their present and in the future.

    Do not revile the fever, for it cleanses out the sins of the children of Adam in the same way that a furnace removes the dirt of iron

    This Hadith teaches us to be polite with Allah the Almighty, we may not utter a word that indicates dissatisfaction with fate, even indirectly. One may not ever utter any word that entails despair. It would have a negative effect on those around him who may reject his words or hate him. It would be worse if the listener is a flunkey who imitates this falsehood.

    Fasting is a sheild

    Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with them, reported Allah's Messenger (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as saying: Allah the Exalted and Majestic said: Every deed of the son of Adam is for him, except fasting. It is (exclusively) meant for Me and I (alone) will reward for it. Fasting is a shield. When any one of you is fasting on a day, he should neither indulge in obscene language, nor raise the voice; or if anyone reviles him or tries to quarrel with him he should say: I am a fasting person. By Him, in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, the breath of the fasting person is dearer to Allah on the Day of judgment than the fragrance of musk. The one who fasts has two (occasions) of joy, one when he breaks the fast he is glad with the breaking of (the fasting) and one when he meets his Lord he is glad with his fasting.
