Abu Hurairah relates: When the Holy Prophet died and Abu Bakr became Khalifa and of the Arabs some repudiated their obligations and Abu Bakr said he would fight them, Umar said to him: How will you fight them while the Holy Prophet said: I have been commanded to fight those who fight me till they should affirm: There is none worthy of worship save Allah. Then whoever affirms this, his life and property will be secure except to the extent of his obligations, and his responsibility is to Allah. Abu Bakr answered him: I shall certainly fight those who make a distinction between Prayer and Zakat. Zakat is obligatory in respect of wealth. Allah is my witness that if they hold back from me the nose-rope of a camel that they paid to the Holy Prophet, I shall fight them for their holding it back. Umar said thereafter: I then understood that Allah had made the matter of fighting plain to Abu Bakr and I recognised that he was in the right (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On the Obligation of Paying the Zakat, Hadith Number 1215, Page Number 210Abu Ayub relates that a man asked the Holy Prophet: Tell me what should I do to be admitted to Paradise. He answered him: Worship Allah, associating naught with Him, observe Prayer, pay the Zakat and strengthen the ties of kinship (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On the Obligation of Paying the Zakat, Hadith Number 1216, Page Number 210Abu Hurairah relates: A rustic came to the Holy Prophet and said: Messenger of Allah, tell me what I should do so that I should enter Paradise. He answered him: Worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him, and observe Prayer, and pay the obligatory Zakat, and observe the fast of Ramadhan. The man said: By Him in Whose hands is my life I will not add anything to this. When he turned away the Holy Prophet said to those around him: He who would be pleased to look at someone out of the dwellers of Paradise should look at that one (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On the Obligation of Paying the Zakat, Hadith Number 1217, Page Number 210Jarir ibn Abdullah relates: I made a covenant with the Holy Prophet to observe Prayer, to pay the Zakat and to have the welfare of every Muslim at heart (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On the Obligation of Paying the Zakat, Hadith Number 1218, Page Number 210Abu Hurairah relates that the Holy Prophet said: Allah, the Lord of honour and glory says: All other deeds of man are for himself, but his fasting is purely for Me and I shalt reward him for it. The fast is a shield. When any of you is fasting he should eschew loose talk and noisy exchanges. Should anyone revile him or seek to pick a quarrel with him, he should respond with: I am observing a fast. By Him in Whose hands is the life of Muhammad, the breath of one who is fasting is purer in the sight of Allah than the fragrance of musk. One who fasts experiences two joys: he is joyful when he breaks his fast, and he is joyful by virtue of his fast when he meets his Lord (Bokhari and Muslim). Bokhari adds: Allah says: He abstains from food and drink and from indulging his passion for My sake. A fast is undertaken for My sake and I shall bestow the reward for it. Other good works are rewarded only ten times. Muslim’s version adds: A man’s good works carry a multiple reward, from ten times to seven hundred times. Allah says: A fast is an exception, for it is observed for My sake and I shall bestow the reward for it. He who observes a fast gives up his passion and his food for My sake. For such a one there are two joys; a joy when he breaks his fast and a joy when he meets his Lord. His breath is purer in the estimation of Allah than the fragrance of musk.
Abu Hurairah relates that the Holy Prophet said: He who spends a pair of anything in the cause of Allah will be called from the gates of Paradise:" Servant of Allah, this gate is better for thee. Thus, he who is constant in Prayer will be called from the gate of Prayer; and he who is eager in striving in the cause of Allah will be called from the gate of striving; and he who is regular in fasting will be called from the gate called Rayyan; and he who is munificent in charity will be called from the gate of charity. Abu Bakr said: May my father and mother be thy sacrifice, Messenger of Allah, those who are called from these gates shall want for nothing, but will any one be called from all these gates? He answered: Yes, and ] am hoping you will be one of them (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On Fasting, Hadith Number 1221, Page Number 212Sa‘ad ibn Sahl relates that the Holy Prophet said: There is a gate of Paradise called Rayyan through which only those will enter on the Day of Judgment who are regular in observing the fast and no one else. A call will go forth: Where are those who observed the fast regularly? and they will step forth and no one beside him will enter through that gate. After they shall have entered the gate will be closed and no one else will enter thereby (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On Fasting, Hadith Number 1222, Page Number 213Abu Sa‘id Khudri relates that the Holy Prophet said: When a servant of Allah observes the fast for a day for the sake of Allah, He thereby repels the Fire from him a distance of seventy years of journeying (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On Fasting, Hadith Number 1223, Page Number 213Abu Hurairah relates that the Holy Prophet said: He who observes the fast during Ramadhan out of sincerity of faith and in hope of earning merit will have his past sins forgiven him (Bokhari and Muslim).
Gardens of the Righteous, On Fasting, Hadith Number 1224, Page Number 213Abu Hurairah relates that the Holy Prophet said: A person having gold or silver who does not pay the Zakat due on it should know that on the Day of Judgment his gold and silver will be melted into slabs which will then be heated in the fire of hell and his side and forehead and back will be branded therewith. When the slabs will become cool they will be heated up again and the branding will be continued during a day the extent of which will" be equal to fifty thousand years till the people will have been judged and he will be shown his way to Paradise or to the Fire. He was asked: Messenger of Allah, what about camels? He answered: In the same way the owner of camels who does not discharge what is due in respect of them (and what is due includes their milk on the day they are taken to water) will be thrown on his face in a wide level plain on the Day of Judgment to be trampled upon by the camels. These camels will be strong and fat and not one from among them will be missing. They will trample him under their feet and will tear him apart with their teeth. When the last of them will have passed over him the first of them will begin the process over again through a day the extent of which will be equal to fifty thousand years till all men have been judged and he will be shown his way to Paradise or to the Fire. Then he was asked: Messenger of Allah, what about cows and goats? He answered: The same will be the case of one who owns cows and goats and does not discharge his obligation in respect of them. On the Day of Judgment he will be thrown on his face in a wide level plain when none of the animals will be missing and none will be without horns. They will gore him with their horns and will trample him under their feet and when one side has finished the other side will begin, throughout a day, the extent of which will be equal to fifty thousand years till all men have been judged and he will be shown his way to Paradise or to the Fire. He was asked: Messenger of Allah, what about horses? He answered: Horses may be divided into three groups: those that are a burden for their owner, those that are a screen for him and those that make their owner worthy of reward. As to those who are a burden for their owner they are the ones who are reared for show or for pride or for causing injury to the Muslims. They will be a pause of torment for their owner. The ones that are a screen for their owner are those that are reared by him for the cause of Allah and he does not forget that which is due to Allah in respect of their backs and their necks. They are his screen. Those that make their owner worthy of reward are the ones that are reared in meadows and gardens for being used in the cause of Allah by the Muslims. Whatever they eat from these meadows and gardens is written down as good works of their owner, so much so that even their droppings and their urine counts for an equal number of good works for him. Every rope that is used up in their jumping and every height from which they jump and every hoof mark that they make counts for an equal number of good works for him. When their owner leads them through a stream and they drink from it, whether their owner intended them to do so or not, every mouthful that they drink counts as good works for him, He was asked: Messenger of Allah, what about donkeys? He answered: No specific direction has been revealed to me with regard to donkeys but the following peerless verse is comprehensive: Then whoso will have done the smallest particle of good will see it, and whoso will have done the smallest particle of ill will also see it (99.8-9) (Bokhari and Muslim).
