Abu Thabit from Sahl bin Hunaif (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (PBUH) said:
"He who
asks Allah for martyrdom, Allah will raise him to the high status of the martyrs, even if he dies on his bed".
[Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith highlights the merit and importance of sincere intention which in fact is so great that by
virtue of it Allah raises a person's status to that of a martyr. On the contrary, persons of foul intention will be
consigned to Hell by Allah even if they die in Jihad.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:
"One of the
earlier Prophets who was out on an expedition proclaimed among his people that no man should follow him who had
married a woman with whom he wished to cohabit but had not yet done so, or who had built houses on which he had
not yet put the roofs, or who had bought sheep or pregnant she-camels and was expecting them to produce young.
He, then, went on the expedition and approached the town at the time of the 'Asr prayer or little before it. He then
told the sun that both it and he were under command and prayed Allah to hold it back for them, so it was held back
till Allah gave him victory. He collected the spoils and it (meaning fire) came to devour these, but did not. He said
that among the people there was a man who stole from the booty. He told them that a man from every tribe must
swear allegiance to him, and when a man's hand stuck to his, he said: "There is thief among you and every
individual of your tribe must swear allegiance to me". (In course of swearing of allegiance,) hands of two or three
persons stuck to his hand. He said: "The thief is among you". They brought him a head of gold like a cow's head and
when he laid it down, the fire came and devoured the spoils. Spoils were not allowed to anyone before us, then Allah
allowed spoils to us as He saw our weakness and incapacity and allowed them to us"
.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
1. In the opinion of Imam As-Suyuti, the Prophet (PBUH) referred to in this Hadith was Prophet Yusha` bin Nun
(
Joshua
). His conduct shows that it is necessary to make suitable arrangements for the worldly needs of those who
are engaged in the Cause of Allah so that they can concentrate on their struggle without any distraction.
2. The lawfulness of the booty of war fought in the way of Allah is a specialty of the Muslim Ummah. Before the
advent of Islam (the Shar'iah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)), the booty of war which was free from dishonesty
used to be consumed by fire. This Hadith also confirms the miracle of the Prophet Yusha' (
Joshua
) in which the
movement of the sun was stopped until he had conquered the village.

Hakim bin Hizam (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:
"Both
parties in a business transaction have a right to annul it so long as they have not separated; and if they tell the truth
and make everything clear to each other (i.e., the seller and the buyer speak the truth, the seller with regard to what
is purchased, and the buyer with regard to the money) they will be blessed in their transaction, but if they conceal
anything and lie, the blessing on their transaction will be eliminated.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
Here, the two persons engaged in business are seller and buyer. The word 'right' here means that so
far both of them are present at the spot where business is being transacted they have a right to cancel their bargain.
In other words, even after the mutual acceptance of the terms of the bargain so long as they are present at the spot
they are entitled to cancel the deal until the time they separate from each other. Generally, people do not think it
