Recommending (Hadith No. 1171)


Bismillah.
Hadith no. 1169 (below) is a repeat. Read it here.
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 510:
Narrated 'Uqba bin Al-Harith (radiallahu `anhu):
Once the Prophet (sallallaahu `alayhi wasallamoffered the 'Asr prayer and then hurriedly went to his house and returned immediately. I (or somebody else) asked him (as to what was the matter) and he said, "I left at home a piece of gold which was from the charity and I disliked to let it remain a night in my house, so I got it distributed. "
Hadith no. 1170 (below) is also a repeat. Read it here (Hadith no. 793).
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 511:
Narrated Ibn Abbas (radiallahu `anhu):
The Prophet (sallallaahu `alayhi wasallamwent out for the 'Id prayer on the 'Id day and offered a two Rakat prayer; and he neither offered a prayer before it or after it. Then he went towards the women along with Bilal (radiallahu `anhu). He preached them and ordered them to give in charity. And some (amongst the women) started giving their fore-arm bangles and ear-rings.
Today's Hadith:
Volume 2, Book 24, Number 512:
Narrated Abu Burda bin Abu Musa (radiallahu `anhu):
that his father said, "Whenever a beggar came to Allah's Apostle (sallallaahu `alayhi wasallam) or he was asked for something, he used to say (to his companions), "Help and recommend him and you will receive the reward for it; and Allah will bring about what He will through His Prophet's tongue."
Prophet (sallallaahu `alayhi wasallamwould encourage his companions to help the poor. And if they couldn't fulfill the questioner's needs themselves, he would ask them to recommend them to someone else. And the person who recommends gets the same reward as the doer. Allahu Akbar.
This can be taken as a general principle, not just limited to financial help. If someone asks you for help, you help them if it's in your hands. If not, refer them to someone else who can make things easier for them. So even though you did not do the deed yourself, you're entitled to its reward. Because Allah is the Best. <3

Lurvvvv! (Hadith No. 1170)


Bismillah.
Narrated 'Aisha:
During his sickness, Allah's Apostle was asking repeatedly, "Where am I today? Where will I be tomorrow?" And I was waiting for the day of my turn (impatiently). Then, when my turn came, Allah took his soul away (in my lap) between my chest and arms and he was buried in my house.
Prophet (SAW) would take regular turns to be with his wives. Although he loved `A'ishah (RA) more than the others, he never treated the others unjustly. During the days of his fatal illness, he became really impatient to be with `A'ishah, so he would ask again and again: 'where am I today? Where will I be tomorrow?', indicating that he wanted to visit `A'ishah real soon.
And same was the case with `A'ishah (RA); she kept getting impatient as well. So in order to fulfill Prophet (SAW)'s wish, the wives mutually decided to let `A'ishah have their share of the days. When finally he came to be with `A'ishah (RA), it was there in her lap that his soul was taken away. And it was there in her house that his body was buried. Sallallahu `alaiyhi wasallam.
When you love someone, it's natural that you desire to see them and be with them as much as possible. And with a love so pure as this one (among spouses), it's just plain cute. <3
The last person Prophet (SAW) saw before his death was `A'ishah (RA). Aww! :)
One of the greatest aims of marriage according to the laws of Allaah is so that affection and compassion may prevail between the spouses. This is the foundation on which married life should be built. Allaah, may He be exalted, says:
 
“And among His Signs is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may find repose in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy” [al-Room 30:21] 
Al-Haafiz Ibn Katheer (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
Affection means love, and compassion means kindness. A man keeps a woman either because he loves her or her because he feels compassion towards her because he has children from her.
Ibn Katheer (may Allah have mercy on him) also said: 
There is no love between any two souls greater than that that exists between the spouses.
Tafseer Ibn Katheer, 3/525
Difference between love and 'madness' here.
Wassalam.
