The needy is not the one who can be turned away with a date-fruit or two, or a morsel or two. But, the needy is the one who abstains from begging

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أَنَّ رسُولَ اللَّه -صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم- قَالَ: «لَيسَ المِسْكِين الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ التَّمْرَة والتَّمْرَتَان، وَلا اللُّقْمَةُ واللُّقْمَتَان، إِنَّمَا المِسْكِين الَّذِي يَتَعَفَّف».
Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The needy is not the one who can be turned away with a date-fruit or two, or a morsel or two. But, the needy is the one who abstains from begging."
Narrated by Bukhari & MuslimGradeAuthentic hadith
Explanation

This Hadīth clarifies the true meaning of poverty and informs that a praiseworthy needy who deserves charity more, is the one who abstains from begging. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did not consider the one who goes around and begs a real needy, because he takes what suffices him and may receive Zakah, ending his poverty. However, the need of someone who does not beg continues because he does not receive things through begging and asking people.

This world is a prison for the believer and a paradise for the disbeliever

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضيَ اللهُ عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الدُّنْيَا سِجْنُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَجَنَّةُ الْكَافِرِ».
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This world is a prison for the believer and a paradise for the disbeliever."
Narrated by MuslimGradeAuthentic
Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed that this worldly life is like a prison for the believer, due to his commitment to religious duties—doing what is commanded and avoiding what is prohibited. When he dies, he finds relief from this and transitions to the everlasting bliss that Allah Almighty has prepared for him. As for the disbeliever, this life is like a paradise for him, as he indulges in whatever his soul desires and his whims dictate. But when he dies, he transitions to the everlasting punishment that Allah Almighty has prepared for him on the Day of Judgment.

Benefits
  1. An-Nawawi said: Every believer is imprisoned and restrained in this world from forbidden and disliked desires and is obligated to perform difficult acts of obedience. When he dies, he is relieved of all that and transitions to what Allah Almighty has prepared for him—everlasting bliss and complete comfort, free from any deficiency. As for the disbeliever, whatever pleasure he had in this world was limited and tainted with disturbances. When he dies, he transitions to eternal punishment and everlasting misery.
  2. As-Sindi said: His statement "a prison for the believer" means that even if the believer is living in comfort, Paradise is better for him than this world. And "a paradise for the disbeliever" means that even if he is in hardship, Hellfire is worse for him than this world.
  3. The insignificance of worldly life in the sight of Allah Almighty.
  4. The worldly life is a place of trial and test for the people of faith.
  5. The disbeliever hastened his paradise in this worldly life, and was punished by being deprived of the Paradise and the bliss of the Hereafter.

If I had gold equal to the mountain of Uhud, it would please me that I should have nothing left of it with me after the passage of three nights, except what I might retain to repay a debt

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «لو كان لي مِثْلُ أحدٍ ذهبًا، لسرني أن لا تمر عليَّ ثلاث ليالٍ وعندي منه شيءٌ إلا شيء أرْصُدُهُ لِدَيْنٍ».
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If I had gold equal to the mountain of Uhud, it would please me that I should have nothing left of it with me after the passage of three nights, except what I might retain to repay a debt."
Al-Bukhari and Muslim. This is the wording of Al-BukhariGradeAuthentic hadith
Explanation

If I had a wealth of pure gold that is equal to the mountain of Uhud, I would spend all of it in the cause of Allah and would not keep anything thereof, expect what I need for fulfilling rights and repaying my debts.

This one is better than an earthful of the other

عن سهل بن سعد الساعدي رضي الله عنه قال: مَرَّ رجلٌ على النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال لرجل عنده جالسٌ: «ما رأيُك في هَذا؟»، فقال: رجل من أَشراف الناس، هذا والله حَرِيٌّ إن خَطب أن يُنْكَحَ، وإن شَفع أن يُشَفَّعَ، فَسكت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ثم مرَّ رجلٌ آخر، فقال له رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «ما رأيُك في هذا؟» فقال: يا رسول الله، هذا رجلٌ من فقراء المسلمين، هذا حَرِيٌّ إن خَطب أن لا يُنْكَحَ، وإن شَفَعَ أن لا يُشَفَّعَ، وإن قال أن لا يُسمع لقوله، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «هذا خَيرٌ من مِلءِ الأرض مثل هذا».
Sahl ibn Sa‘d As-Sā‘idi (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that a man passed by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) so he said to a man who was sitting with him: "What do you say about this man?" He replied: "He is one of the noblest of people. By Allah, if he proposes marriage his proposal deserves to be accepted, and if he intercedes his intercession deserves to be accepted." The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. Then another man passed by. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What do you think about this man?" He replied: "O Messenger of Allah, this is one of the poor Muslims. If he proposes marriage he does not deserve to get married, and if he intercedes his intercession does not deserve to be accepted, and if he speaks he does not deserve to be listened to." The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: "This one (the second) is better than an earthful of the other (the first).”
Narrated by BukhariGradeAuthentic hadith
Explanation

Meaning: Two men passed by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). One of them was from the noblest of the people, who had influence among them. He would be accepted if he proposed in marriage, and would be listened to if he spoke. The other man was the opposite; from the weak Muslims who had no status among the people. If he proposed in marriage, he would not be accepted; if he interceded, his intercession would be rejected; and if he spoke, he would not be listened to. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: “This one (the second) is better than an earthful of the other (the first).” He means that he is better in the sight of Allah, the Almighty, than an earthful of the other man who had a noble status and influence among his people because Allah, the Exalted, does not look at a person’s status, influence, lineage, wealth, appearance, clothes, mounts (the vehicle they ride), or his houses. Allah looks at their hearts and their deeds. Another Hadīth reads: “Verily, Allah does not look at your appearances or your wealth, but He looks at your hearts and your deeds.” If the heart is of a person sound with respect to what is between himself and Allah, the Almighty, turns to Him, becomes mindful of Him, is diligent to the rights of Allah, shows humility to Him, strives to do what pleases Him, then this indeed is the person who is noble in the sight of Allah. He is the one who holds a high status with Allah. He is the one who, if he were to take an oath in the name of Allah, Allah would fulfill his oath.

Who can guarantee for me that he will never ask people for something, and I will guarantee for him Paradise

عن ثوبان رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «من تَكَفَّلَ لي أن لا يسأل الناس شيئًا، وأَتَكَفَّلُ له بالجنة؟» فقلت: أنا، فكان لا يَسأل أحدًا شيئًا.
Thawbān (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Who can guarantee for me that he will never ask people for something, and I will guarantee Paradise for him?" So I said: "I do." Since then, Thawabān (may Allah be pleased with him) never asked anyone for anything.
Narrated by Ibn Majah - An-Nasaa’i - Narrated by Abu Daoud - Narrated by AhmadGradeAuthentic hadith
Explanation

The Hadīth means that whoever commits himself before the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) not to ask people for their money or seek their help to fulfill his duties, whether much or little, he will guarantee for him Paradise. That is because refraining from asking people entails reliance on Allah, and is proof of one's strong hope and trust in Allah, the Almighty. So this person's reward is that Allah, the Exalted, admits him to Paradise. After Thawbān (may Allah be pleased with him) had heard this Hadīth, he committed himself before the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) that he would not ask people for anything. It is reported from him, as in the narration of Ibn Mājah, "that his whip would fall down while he was riding, yet he would not ask anyone to hand it to him, rather he would get down and pick it himself. He did this in fulfillment of the promise that he committed himself to before the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)."

The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) passed by us while we were repairing a hut that we owned

عن عبد الله بن عمرو بن العاص رضي الله عنهما قال: مرَّ علينا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ونحن نُعالج خُصًّا لنا، فقال: «ما هذا؟» فقلنا: قد وَهَى، فنحن نُصلحه، فقال: «ما أرى الأمر إلا أَعْجَل من ذلك».
‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘Ās (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) passed by us while we were repairing a hut that we owned. He said: "What is this?" We replied: "It has become weak, so we are repairing it." He said: "I foresee that the matter (meaning death) is swifter/sooner than that."
Narrated by Ibn Majah - Narrated by At-Termedhy - Narrated by Abu DaoudGradeAuthentic hadith
Explanation

Meaning: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) passed by ‘Amr ibn al-‘Ās while he was repairing the damaged parts of his home, or working on it to reinforce it. In a narration by Abu Dawūd: “while I was plastering a wall of mine”. He said: "I foresee that the matter (meaning death) is swifter/sooner than that." He means that death is nearer to you than repairing your house for fear that it would collapse before you die, and perhaps you would die before it collapses. Hence, mending your deeds takes priority over mending your house. Someone’s appointed term in this world is too short for him to indulge in maintaining it and exerting effort in that respect. The Hadīth calls for abstinence from focusing on the worldly life and forgetting the life Hereafter, while people have gone against in all parts of the world. Al-Taybi (may Allah have mercy upon him) said: “It means that our state in this world that resembles the wayfarer or the rider resting in the shade of a tree is too short to allow you to engage in building.” Apparently repairing the building in this case was not necessary (meaning it wasn’t in such a dangerous state that it may harm someone) but he was only motivated by the hope to reinforce it or by his preference to decorate it. He clarified to him that it is more important to preoccupy himself with matters of the Hereafter than with what would not be of any benefit to him in the Hereafter.

Be indifferent to worldly life; Allah will love you, and be indifferent to what people have; people will love you

عَنْ أَبِي العَبَّاسِ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعِدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، دُلَّنِي عَلَى عَمَلٍ إِذَا عَمِلْتُهُ أَحَبَّنِي اللَّهُ وَأَحَبَّنِي النَّاسُ، فَقَالَ: «ازْهَدْ فِي الدُّنْيَا يُحِبُّكَ اللَّهُ، وَازْهَدْ فِيمَا عِنْدَ النَّاسِ يُحِبُّكَ النَّاسُ».
Abu al-‘Abbās Sahl ibn Sa‘d as-Sā‘idi (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: O Messenger of Allah, guide me to a deed which, if I do it, Allah will love me and people will love me. He said: "Be indifferent to worldly life; Allah will love you, and be indifferent to what people have; people will love you."
Narrated by Ibn Mājah and others, with sound chains of narrationsGradeAn-Nawawi said: It is a Hasan (sound) Hadīth
Explanation

A man asked the Prophet (ﷺ) to guide him to a deed that, if he does it, Allah will love him and people will love him. He (ﷺ) said to him: Allah will love you if you renounce what is surplus in this world and will not benefit you in the Hereafter, and if you abandon what may be harmful for your religion; and people will love you if you renounce their worldly possessions, for they naturally love them, and if anyone tries to take what they have, they will hate him, and whoever renounces it, they will love him.

Benefits
  1. The Hadīth highlights the merit of asceticism, which is to renounce what is not beneficial in the Hereafter.
  2. Asceticism is a rank higher than Wara‘ (piety/restraint), since Wara‘ is giving up what may be harmful for one's religion, while asceticism is to leave what is of no benefit in the Hereafter.
  3. As-Sindi said: Worldly life is loved by people. So, if anyone competes with them over it, he becomes as hateful to them as he does that, and if anyone leaves them and their loved thing, he becomes beloved in their hearts to that degree.

What is left of it (the sheep)? She replied: Nothing is left except its shoulder. He said: All of it is left except its shoulder

Narrated by At-TermedhyGradeAuthentic hadith
Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered a sheep then they gave all of it in charity except its shoulder. So he said to ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that all of the sheep remains for them with Allah, the Almighty, as a reward that they will receive in the Hereafter, because it was given out in charity. As to the part that was not given out in charity (the shoulder), it is actually not left for them because it is not rewarded.
