As reported by ʿAbd Allah b. Mas’ud, al-Miqdad (ra) is reported to have said the following on the day of Badr: “O Allah’s Messenger! We do not say to you as the Israelites said to Moses, ‘Go you and your Lord and fight you two; we are sitting here,’ but (we say). ‘Proceed, and we are with you.’ That seemed to delight Allah’s Messenger (saw) greatly.” (al-Bukhari, al-Tafsir, (al-Maʾida) 4)
Sulayman b. ʿAmr b. al-Ahwas (ra) reported, “My father told me that he witnessed the Farewell Pilgrimage with the Messenger of Allah (saw). The Prophet (saw) said, “…Indeed you have rights over your women, and your women have rights over you. As for your rights over your women, then they must not allow anyone whom you dislike to treat on your bedding (furniture), nor to admit anyone in your home that you dislike. And their rights over you are that you treat them well in clothing and feeding.” (al-Tirmidhi, al-Radaʿ, 11)
As related by ʿAbd Allah b. ʿUmar (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “Every one of you is a guardian, and responsible for what is in his custody. The ruler is a guardian of his subjects and responsible for them; a husband is a guardian of his family and is responsible for it; a lady is a guardian of her husband’s house and is responsible for it, and a servant is a guardian of his master’s property and is responsible for it.” (al-Bukhari, al-Istiqrad, 20)
According to ʿAbd Allah b. Mas’ud (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “I urge you to stick to the truth! For telling the truth is a virtue and virtue leads to Paradise and the servant who endeavors to tell the truth is recorded as truthful. I urge you to stay away from lying! For lying is an obscenity and obscenity leads to the Hell fire, and the servant who endeavors to tell a lie is recorded as a liar.” (Muslim, al-Birr, 105)
According to Abu Hurayra (ra), the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “A Muslim is the one from whose tongue and hands human beings are safe. A Mu’min is the one human beings accept as safe regarding their lives and properties (that he would hurt neither of them).” (al-Nasaʾi, al-Iman, 8)
