According to Ibn ʿUmar (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said (to a group including Ibn ʿUmar), “Tell me of a tree which resembles a Muslim, giving its fruit at every season by the permission of its Lord, and the leaves of which do not fall.” Ibn ʿUmar (ra) says he thought of the date-palm tree, but because Abu Bakr and ʿUmar (ra) were present, he didn’t think it was proper to speak. When no one spoke, the Prophet (saw) said, “It is the date-palm tree.” (al-Bukhari, al-Adab, 89)
According to Ibn ʿUmar (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “A believer is like a perfumer. If you sit with him, he benefits you; if you walk with him, he benefits you; if you work with him, he benefits you.” (al-Tabarani, al-Muʿjam al-Kabir, XII, 319)
According to Abu Hurayra (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “A believer is like a fresh green plant the leaves of which move in whatever direction the wind forces them to move and when the wind becomes still, it stands straight. Such is the similarity with the believer. He bends because of tribulations (but he does not break). As for the unbeliever, he is like a cedar which remains rigid and erect until Allah breaks it when He will.” (al-Bukhari, al-Tawhid, 31)
ʿAmr b. al-ʿAs said (ra) he heard the Messenger of Allah (saw) say, “By Him Who holds the soul of Muhammad in His hands! A believer is like a piece of gold. It neither diminishes nor changes even if its owner blows over it with bellows…” (Ibn Hanbal, II, 199; NM253, al-Hakim, al-Mustadrak, I, 110 (1/76))
ʿAmr b. al-ʿAs said (ra) he heard the Messenger of Allah (saw) say, “By Him Who holds the soul of Muhammad in His hands! A believer is like a honeybee. It eats good things, produces good things, lands on (good places), and does not break or harm (the place it lands on.)” (Ibn Hanbal, II, 199; NM253, al-Hakim, al-Mustadrak, I, 110 (1/76))
