Sunday, February 20 @ 22:12:02 EST by Ayman (5222 reads) | Saad bin Abi Waqqas reported,
?Salman was sick. I went to see him. He began to weep. I asked him what was he weeping for and told him,? The Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him) departed from this world, pleased with you. You will meet him again on the Haud-al-Kauthar (a fountain in paradise). You will also meet there with your other departed friends?
He said, ?By Allah. I am not afraid of death. Neither have I any desire for the world. What I lament for is, that I had promised the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him) that my belongings would not be more than those of a traveller but now I find so many snakes around me?.

Abu Dharr Al-Ghifari: Extensive Isolation
Tuesday, December 14 @ 19:38:18 EST by Ayman (5602 reads) | After the death of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), Abu Dharr could not bear to stay in Madinah because of his grief and sadness for the great loss. So he left for the Syrian desert and stayed there during the caliphate of Abu Bakr and Umar, God bless them.
During the caliphate of Uthman, Abu Dharr stayed in
Damascus and witnessed Muslims deviating from Islam, going after worldly
pleasures and desires. He was saddened and repelled by this. So Uthman invited
him to come to Madinah where he was also hurt by people's pursuit of worldly
goods and pleasures..

Abu Huraira: Abu Huraira and hunger
Sunday, July 04 @ 07:32:51 EDT by ayman (4087 reads) | Abu Hurairah (may Allaah be pleased with him) says:
"I wish you had seen some of us living on a starvation diet for several days, successively, so much so that we could not even stand erect. On account of spasms of hunger, I would lie on my belly and press my stomach against the ground or keep a stone tied to my abdomen.
Once, I intentionally sat in wait for some notable people to pass that way. As Abu Bakr (may Allaah be pleased with him) came along, I joined in conversation with him, intending to continue the talk till we reach his home, where I expected him to invite me to share his meals, as was his wont. But his answer was brief, and my plan did not work..
