Muhammad

The search of knowledge is an obligation laid on every Muslim.

If you disclose your alms, even then it is well done, but if you keep them secret, and give them to the poor, then that is better still for you; and this wipes off from you some of your evil deeds.

Avoid the seven noxious things. (1) Associating anything with God, (2) magic, (3) killing one whom God has declared inviolate without a just cause, (4) devouring usury, (5) consuming the property of an orphan, running back from the battlefield and, (7) slandering chaste women who are believers but indiscreet.

Shedding of blood will be the first matter about which judgment will be given on the Day of Resurrection.

There are three signs of a hypocrite: when he speaks he speaks lies, when he makes a promise he breaks it, and when he is trusted he betrays his trust.

If you guarantee me six things on your part, I shall guarantee you paradise: speak the truth when you talk, keep a promise when you make it, when you are trusted with something fulfill your trust, avoid sexual immorality, lower your eyes and restrain your hand from injustice.

The whole world is to be enjoyed, but the best thing in the world is a pious woman.

The one who would have the worst position in God's sight on the Day of Resurrection would be a learned man who did not profit from his learning.

The man who is most hateful to God is the one who quarrels and disputes most.

A time is coming to mankind when only the receiver of usury will remain and if he does not receive it, some of its vapour will reach him.
