28- 963 – On the authority of Saad bin ‘Abee Waqqas that he used to pray Isha in the Masjid of Allaah’s Messenger -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- then pray one Witr and would not increase on that Witr.
It was said to him, ‘Do you pray one Witr and not increase on that, O Abu Ishaq?’
He said: ‘Yes. Indeed I heard the Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- say: ‘Whoever does not go to sleep until he has prayed Witr is an intelligent person.’’
No. 2208
29- 970 – On the authority of Jabir that the Messenger -sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam- ordered us with four things and prohibited us from five: 1- That if you lie down to sleep then close your door. 2- To cover your drinking vessels. 3- To cover your food containers and 4- To extinguish your lanterns. Indeed Shaytaan cannot open a closed door, open a drinking vessel or remove a cover and indeed a rat is an evil creature, it will cause a family’s house to be burnt down.
1- Do not eat with your left hand, 2-do not drink with your left hand, 3- do not walk with one shoe, 4- do not raise your garment onto your shoulders such that your private parts become exposed and 5- do not sit wearing a single garment whereby your private parts may become exposed.’

So you will say: Allaah.
Then he will say: Who created Allaah?
So if you find this happening to one of you then recite: ‘Aamantu Billaahi wa Rusulihi.’ (I have believed in Allaah and His Messengers); saying this will cause that whispering to go away.’
No. 116
31-973 – On the authority of Huthayfah who said: The Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– said: ‘Indeed the severest thing I fear for you is a man who reads the Qur’aan so much so that you see light upon him and is strong in his Islaam but then he abandons Islaam, placing it behind him, because he attacks his neighbour with the sword and accuses him of committing Shirk.
I said: ‘O Prophet of Allaah! Which one is more deserving of Shirk, the accuser or the accused?
He answered: ‘The accuser.’

She said: O Abu Abdur Rahman did you not hear the Messenger of Allaah –sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam– said: ‘Indeed the souls of the believers are inside green birds which are perched on the trees of Paradise.’
