#SpiritualTreasures: Salat is the soul of bounties. The grace of God Almighty is received through the Salat. Then observe it duly so that you might become heirs to the bounties of God Almighty. (Essence of Islam Vol. 2 p. 308), p. 308)

#DailyHadith: Abd Allah b. 'Amr reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying: The time of the Zuhr prayer is as along as the time of the 'Asr prayer has not come; the time of the Asr prayer is as long as the sun has not become yellow ; the time of the Maghrib prayer is as long as the twilight has not ended; the time of the Isha prayer is up to midnight; and the time of the Fajr prayer is as long as the sun has not risen. (Abu Dawud)

#SpiritualTreasures: The Promised Messiah went on to say: “In the days when my father and brother were overwhelmed by a multitude of woes and sorrows on account of lawsuits surrounding various worldly matters, they would often look at my state of affairs with envy and say: ‘He is a very fortunate man. No grief comes anywhere near him.’” (Malfuzat – Volume II, p. 43)

#DailyHadith: Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: A strong believer is better and is more lovable to Allah than a weak believer, and there is good in everyone, (but) cherish that which gives you benefit (in the Hereafter) and seek help from Allah and do not lose heart, and if anything (in the form of trouble) comes to you, don't say: If I had not done that, it would not have happened so and so, but say: Allah did that what He had ordained to do and your" if" opens the (gate) for the Satan. (Muslim)

#SpiritualTreasures: If these ignorant Maulawis choose to deliberately close their eyes, it is up to them. They can do no harm to the truth. But the time comes when many Pharaoh natured people will ponder over these prophecies and be saved from drowning. God says: 'I shall mount attack after attack, until I have established your truth in the depths of their hearts.' So, O Maulawis! if you possess the strength to battle with God, then carry on. (Divine Manifestations, p. 23)

#DailyHadith: Narrated Tariq ibn Suwayd or Suwayd ibn Tariq: Wa'il said: Tariq ibn Suwayd or Suwayd ibn Tariq asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about wine, but he forbade it. He again asked him, but he forbade him. He said to him: Prophet of Allah, it is a medicine. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: No it is a disease. (Abu Dawud)

#SpiritualTreasures: The Unity of God, His attributes, prophethood, lofty morals, the perfection of the inner self, etc., and everything else that man requires have been expounded by Islam so perfectly and lucidly that no lengthy debates are needed in this respect. (Malfuzat – Volume II, p. 7)

#DailyHadith: It was narrated from 'Umar, meaning, from his father, his grandfather 'Umar, that he gave a horse in charity at the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), then he saw its owner selling it for a low price. He went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and asked him about that, and he said: “Do not buy what you gave in charity.” (Ibn Majah)

#SpiritualTreasures: In these matters [of Divine knowledge], imperfect reason cannot escape human error, let alone lead one to perfect divine cognition. The most that can be achieved through reason is only this much: someone hypothesizes the need— be it true or false—for something internally within his own mind; however, he cannot prove that what he deems necessary actually exists externally as well. (BarĀhĪn-e-aHmadiyya — Part Four, p. 76)

#DailyHadith: Abu Hurayrah (ra) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Every joint of a person must perform a charity each day that the sun rises: to judge justly between two people is a charity ..." (Bukhari)

#SpiritualTreasures: He who breaks away from this world for His sake, shall find Him. With the deepest sincerity of heart, with a steadfast strength and ardour, become the friends of God, so that He too should become your friend. (Our Teaching, p. 5)

#DailyHadith: Narrated Sa`d: I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "None plots against the people of Medina but that he will be dissolved (destroyed) like the salt is dissolved in water." (Bukhari)

#SpiritualTreasures: The extent of this delay and postponement [of this book] also caused the Sign of Allah’s help and succour in my favour to be manifested. During this long period, many who called me a kafir [disbeliever], a dajjal [deceiver], and a kazzab [liar]; considered me to be outside the pale of Islam; and cursed me by way of mubahalah [prayer duel], passed away from this world, but God kept me alive and helped me to such an extent that—not to talk of liars—there must be very few true and righteous people who received such divine help. This, therefore, is a manifestly clear Sign of God, but only for those who do not shut their eyes and are ready to accept the Signs of God Almighty. (Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya—Part V, p. 9)

#DailyHadith: Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The uttering of (these words):" Hallowed be Allah; all praise is due to Allah, there is no god but Allah and Allah is the Greatest," is dearer to me than anything over which the sun rises. (Muslim)

#SpiritualTreasures: At another place it is said: 'There should be no compulsion in religion.' [The Holy Quran, 2:257]. Meaning that Islam does not try to inculcate anything by compulsion, but sets forth reasons in support of everything. (The Philosophy of the Teachings of Islam, p. 185)

#DailyHadith: Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When the collector of Sadaq comes to you, he should return well pleased" (Muslim)

#SpiritualTreasures: When the Prophet Muhammad would seek forgiveness seventy times in one day—despite being sinless— how great an effort should we exert? Only one who is content with sin does not repent; an individual who considers sin to be evil will ultimately refrain from it. (Malfuzat – Volume I, p. 3)

#DailyHadith: It was narrated that: Thawban said: “When the Verse concerning silver and gold was revealed, they said: 'What kind of wealth should we acquire?' Umar said: 'I will tell you about that.' So he rode on his camel and caught up with the Prophet, and I followed him. He said: 'O Messenger of Allah what kind of wealth should we acquire?' He said: 'Let one of you acquire a thankful heart, a tongue that remembers Allah and a believing wife who will help him with regard to the Hereafter.' ” (Sunan Ibn Majah)

#SpiritualTreasures: "Be careful lest a few accomplishments delude you to think that you have sufficiently fulfilled your purpose. For God desires a complete transformation in your being and He demands from you a death whereafter He should revive you. Hasten to make peace with one another and forgive your brethren their sins. For he who is not inclined to make peace with his brother is wicked and will be cut off, because he is the cause of dissension. Part with your ego in every way and do away with mutual grievances. Be humble like the guilty, though truth be on your side, so that you may be forgiven. Do not feed your vanity, for those who are bloated cannot enter the gate to which you have been called. " (Noah's Ark, p. 22)

#DailyHadith: A man came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! By Allah, I fail to attend the morning congregational prayer because so-and-so prolongs the prayer when he leads us for it." I had never seen the Prophet (ﷺ) more furious in giving advice than he was on that day. He then said, "O people! some of you make others dislike (good deeds). So whoever among you leads the people in prayer, he should shorten it because among them there are the old, the weak and the busy" (Bukhari)
