Al-Adab al-Mufrad

It is reported on the authority of Ṭāriq (may Allāh have mercy upon him) that he said: We were sitting with 'Abdullāh when his servant came and said: The iqāmah for the prayer has been given. He got up and we got up with him and went to the masjid. He saw people praying and were in rukū' at the front of the masjid. He joined them saying the takbīr and bowed and we did as he did. Then a man rushed past and said: ‘Peace be upon you, Abū 'Abdur Raḥmān.’ He ('Abdullāh) said: ‘Allāh has spoken the truth and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) has conveyed the message.’ When we had prayed, he returned and went into his house. We remained sitting in our places, waiting for him until he came out. We said to each other, ‘which of us will ask him?’ Ṭāriq said: I will ask him, and he did so. 'Abdullāh replied, (reporting) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) that he said: “Before the Hour people will single out one individual for the greeting, commerce will grow until a women helps her husband in business, people will cut off links with their relatives, knowledge will spread, false testimony will appear and true testimony will be concealed.”

It is reported on the authority of ‘Abdullāh [ibn Mas’ūd] (may Allāh be pleased with him) that he said: “Lying is not correct, neither in seriousness nor in jest. None of you should promise his child something and then not give it to him.”

Commentary by Dakwah Corner Publications added.

‘Umar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb (may Allāh be pleased with him) said: “Do not let your love be a total infatuation. Do not let your anger be destruction. I asked: How is that? He replied: When you love, you are infatuated like a child. When you hate, you desire destruction for your companion.”
