Imam Yahiya ibn Sharaf an-Nawawi (d. 676AH/1273CE) was without doubt one of the greatest scholars this Ummah has been blessed with. His works have had a tremendous benefit and influence for the Muslims throughout history, and from amongst his works is his collection of 43 hadith of the Prophet (ﷺ) which together form a comprehensive explanation of the great religion of Islam. This work is commonly referred to as “Nawawi’s Forty Hadith” and without doubt it contains immense benefit and guidance.

عن أمـيـر المؤمنـين أبي حـفص عمر بن الخطاب قال: سمعت رسول الله يقـول: إنـما الأعـمـال بالنيات وإنـمـا لكـل امـرئ ما نـوى، فمن كـانت هجرته إلى الله ورسولـه فهجرتـه إلى الله ورسـوله، ومن كانت هجرته لـدنيا يصـيبها أو امرأة ينكحها فهجرته إلى ما هاجر إليه
[رواه إمام المحد ثين أبـو عـبـد الله محمد بن إسماعـيل بن ابراهـيـم بن المغـيره بن بـرد زبه البخاري الجعـفي:1، وأبـو الحسـيـن مسلم بن الحجاج بن مـسلم القـشـيري الـنيسـابـوري:1907 رضي الله عنهما في صحيحيهما اللذين هما أصح الكتب المصنفة].
1. Narrated Umar bin Al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه): I heard the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) say:
Actions are but by intention and every man shall have but that which he intended. Thus he whose migration was for Allah and His messenger, his migration was for Allah and His messenger, and he whose migration was to achieve some worldly benefit or to take some woman in marriage, his migration was for that for which he migrated.

عن عمر أيضاً، قال: بينما نحن جلوس عـند رسـول الله ذات يوم إذ طلع علينا رجل شديد بياض الثياب، شديد سواد الشعر، لا يرى عليه أثـر السفر، ولا يعـرفه منا أحـد، حتى جـلـس إلى النبي فـأسند ركبـتيه إلى ركبتـيه ووضع كفيه على فخذيه، وقـال: ( يا محمد أخبرني عن الإسلام
فقـال رسـول الله : الإسـلام أن تـشـهـد أن لا إلـه إلا الله وأن محـمـداً رسـول الله، وتـقـيـم الصلاة، وتـؤتي الـزكاة، وتـصوم رمضان، وتـحـج البيت إن اسـتـطـعت إليه سبيلاً
قال: صدقت ، فعجبنا له، يسأله ويصدقه؟ قال: فأخبرني عن الإيمان
قال: أن تؤمن بالله وملائكته وكتبه ورسله واليوم الآخر وتؤمن بالقدر خيره وشره
قال: صدقت. قال: فأخبرني عن الإحسان
قال: أن تعبد الله كأنك تراه، فإن لم تكن تراه فإنه يراك
قال: فأخبرني عن الساعة
قال: ما المسؤول عنها بأعلم من السائل
قال: فأخبرني عن أماراتها
قال: أن تلد الأمة ربتها، وأن ترى الحفاة العراة العالة رعاء الشاء يتطاولون في البنيان
ثم انطلق، فلبثت ملياً، ثم قال: يا عمر أتدري من السائل ؟
قلت: الله ورسوله أعلم.
قال: فإنه جبريل ، أتاكم يعلمكم دينكم
[رواه مسلم:8]
2. Narrated Umar bin Al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه): One day while we were sitting with the Messenger of Allah there appeared before us a man whose clothes were exceedingly white and whose hair was exceedingly black; no signs of journeying were to be seen on him and none of us knew him. He walked up and sat down by the prophet. Resting his knees against his and placing the palms of his hands on his thighs, he said: “O Muhammad, tell me about Islam.”
The Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
Islam is to testify that there is no god but Allah and Muhammed is the messenger of Allah, to perform the prayers, to pay the zakat, to fast in Ramadhan, and to make the pilgrimage to the House if you are able to do so.
The man said: “You have spoken rightly,” and we were amazed at him asking him and saying that he had spoken rightly. Then he said: “Tell me about Iman (faith).” The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
It is to believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, and the Last Day, and to believe in divine destiny, both the good and the evil thereof.
The man said: “You have spoken rightly. Then tell me about Ihsan (spiritual perfection).” The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
It is to worship Allah as though you are seeing Him, and while you see Him not yet truly He sees you.
The man said: “Then tell me about the Hour.” The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
The one questioned about it knows no better than the questioner.
The man said: “Then tell me about its signs.” The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
That the slave-girl will give birth to her mistress and that you will see the barefooted, naked, destitute herdsman competing in constructing lofty buildings.
Then he took himself off and I stayed for a time. Then he (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
O Umar, do you know who the questioner was?
I said: “Allah and His messenger know best.” He (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
He was Jibril (Gabriel), who came to you to teach you your religion.

By Allah, other than Whom there is no god, verily one of you behaves like the people of Paradise until there is but an arm’s length between him and it, and that which has been written over takes him and so he behaves like the people of Hell-fire and thus he enters it; and one of you behaves like the people of Hell-fire until there is but an arm’s length between him and it, and that which has been written over takes him and so he behaves like the people of Paradise and thus he enters it.

6. Narrated Al-Numan bin Basheer (رضي الله عنه): I heard the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) say:
That which is lawful is plain and that which is unlawful is plain and between the two of them are doubtful matters about which not many people know. Thus he who avoids doubtful matters clears himself in regard to his religion and his honor, but he who falls into doubtful matters falls into that which is unlawful, like the shepherd who pastures around a sanctuary, all but grazing therein. Truly every king has a sanctuary, and truly Allah’s sanctuary is His prohibitions. Truly in the body there is a morsel of flesh which, if it be whole, all the body is whole and which, if it be diseased, all of it is diseased. Truly it is the heart.

10. Narrated Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه): the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
Allah the Almighty is good and accepts only that which is good. Allah has commanded the faithful to do that which he commanded the messengers, and the Almighty has said: “O Messengers! Eat of the good things and do right.” (23:51) And Allah the Almighty has said : “O you who believe! Eat of the good things wherewith We have provided you.” (2:172) Then he mentioned [the case of] a man who, having journeyed far, is disheveled and dusty and who spreads out his hands to the sky [saying]: “O Lord! O Lord!” – while his food is unlawful, his drink unlawful, his clothing unlawful, and he is nourished unlawfully, so how can he be answered!

O My servants, you sin by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek forgiveness of Me and I shall forgive you.
O My servants, you will not attain harming Me so as to harm Me, and you will not attain benefiting Me so as to benefit Me.
O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to become as pious as the most pious heart of any one man of you, that would not increase My kingdom in anything.
O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to be as wicked as the most wicked heart of any one man of you, that would not decrease My kingdom in anything.
O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to rise up in one place and make a request of Me, and were I to give everyone what he requested, that would not decrease what I have, any more than a needle decreases the sea if put into it.

Every tasbihah (glorification of God) is a charity, every takbirah (declaration God is great) is a charity, everytahmidah (praise of God) is a charity, and every tahlilah (declaration God is one) is a charity, to enjoin a good action is a charity, to forbid an evil action is a charity, and in the sexual act of each of you there is a charity.

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه، قال: قال رسول الله : كل سُلامى من الناس عليه صدقة، كل يوم تطلع فيه الشمس تعدل بين اثنين صدقة، وتعين الرجل فى دابته فتحمله عليها أو ترفع له عليها متاعة صدقة، والكلمة الطيبة صدقة، وبكل خطوة تمشيها إلي الصلاة صدقة، وتميط الأذي عن الطريق صدقة
[رواه البخاري:2989، ومسلم:1009]
26. Narrated Abu Huraira (رضي الله عنه): The Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
Each person’s every joint must perform a charity every day the sun comes up: to act justly between two people is a charity; to help a man with his mount, lifting him onto it or hoistingd up his belongings onto it is a charity: a good word is a charity, every step you take to prayers is a charity and removing a harmful thing from the road is a charity.

عن أبي نجـيـج العـرباض بن سارية رضي الله عنه، قال: وعـظـنا رسول الله صلي الله عليه وسلم موعـظة وجلت منها القلوب، وذرفت منها الدموع، فـقـلـنا: يا رسول الله ! كأنها موعـظة مودع فـأوصنا، قال: أوصيكم بتقوى الله، والسمع والطاعة وإن تأمر عليكم عبد، فإنه من يعــش منكم فسيرى اخـتـلافـا كثيراً، فعـليكم بسنتي وسنة الخفاء الراشدين المهديين عـضو عـليها بالـنـواجـذ، واياكم ومـحدثات الأمور، فإن كل بدعة ضلاله
[رواه أبو داود:4607، والترمذي:2676، وقال: حديث حسن صحيح]
28. Narrated Abu Najih Al-Erbadh bin Sariah (رضي الله عنه): The Messenger of Allah gave us a sermon by which our hearts were filled with fear and tears came to our eyes. We said: “O Messenger of Allah, it is as though this is a farewell sermon, so counsel us.” He (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
I counsel you to fear Allah and to give absolute obedience even if a slave becomes your leader. Verily he among you who lives [long] will see great controversy, so you must keep to my sunnah and to the sunnah of the rightly-guided Khalifahs – cling to them stubbornly. Beware of newly invented matters, for every invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is a going astray, and every going astray is in Hell-fire.

عن معاذ بن جبل رضي الله عنه، قال: قلت: يا رسول الله ! أخبرني بعملٍ يدخلني الجنه ويباعدني عن النار، قال: لقد سألت عن عظيم، وإنه ليسير على من يسره الله عليه: تعبد الله لا تشرك به شيئاً، وتقيم الصلاة، وتؤتي الزكاة، وتصوم رمضان، وتحج البيتثم قال: ألا أدلك على أبواب الخير ؟: الصوم جنة، والصدقة تطفىء الخطيئة كما يطفىء الماء النار، وصلاة الرجل في جوف الليل ثم تلا: تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ حتى بلغ يَعْمَلُونَ [السجدة:17،16] ثم قال: ألا أخبرك برأس الأمر وعموده وذروة سنامه؟ قلت: بلى يا رسول الله، قال: رأس الأمر الإسلام، وعموده الصلاة، وذروة سنامه الجهاد . ثم قال: ألا أخبرك بملاك ذلك كله ؟ فقلت: بلى يا رسول الله ! فأخذ بلسانه وقال: كف عليك هذا ، قلت: يا نبي الله وإنا لمؤاخذون بما نتكلم به ؟ فقال: ثكلتك أمك وهل يكب الناس في النار على وجوههم – أو قال : على مناخرهم - إلا حصائد ألسنتهم ؟! .

29. Narrated Muadh bin Jabal (رضي الله عنه): “O Messenger of Allah, tell me of an act which will take me into Paradise and will keep me away from Hell fire.” The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
You have asked me about a major matter, yet it is easy for him for whom Allah Almighty makes it easy. You should worship Allah, associating nothing with Him, you should perform the prayers, you should pay the zakat, you should fast in Ramadan, and you should make the pilgrimage to the House.
Then he said:
Shall I not show you the gates of goodness? Fasting [which] is a shield, charity [which] extinguishes sin as water extinguishes fire; and the praying of a man in the depth of night.
Then he recited:
Who forsake their beds to cry unto their Lord in fear and hope, and spend of that We have bestowed on them. No soul knoweth what is kept hid for them of joy, as a reward for what they used to do. Quran 32:16-17
Then he said:
Shall I not tell you of the peak of the matter, its pillar, and its topmost part?
I said: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” He said:
The peak of the matter is Islam; the pillar is prayer; and its topmost part is jihad.
Then he said:
Shall I not tell you of the controlling of all that?
I said: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah,” and he took hold of his tongue and said,
Restrain this.
I said: “O Prophet of Allah, will what we say be held against us?” He said:
May your mother be bereaved of you, Muadh! Is there anything that topples people on their faces – or he said on their noses into Hell-fire other than the jests of their tongues?

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه، قال: قال رسول الله صلي الله عليه وسلم: لا تحاسدوا، ولا تناجشوا، ولا تباغضوا، ولا تدابروا، ولا يبع بعضكم على بيع بعض، وكونوا عباد الله إخواناً، المسلم أخو المسلم، لا يظلمه، ولا يخذله، ولا يكذبه، ولا يحقره، التقوى ها هنا ويشير إلى صدره ثلاث مرات بحسب امرىء أن يحقر أخاه المسلم، كل المسلم على المسلم حرام: دمه وماله وعرضه

35. Narrated Abu Huraira (رضي الله عنه): The Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
Do not envy one another; do not inflate prices one to another; do not hate one another; do not turn away from one another; and do not undercut one another, but be you, O servants of Allah, brothers. A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim: he neither oppresses him nor does he fail him, he neither lies to him nor does he hold him in contempt. Piety is right here (and he pointed to his breast three times). It is evil enough for a man to hold his brother Muslim in contempt. The whole of a Muslim for another Muslim is inviolable: his blood, his property, and his honor.

36. Narrated Abu Huraira (رضي الله عنه): The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
Whosoever removes a worldly grief from a believer, Allah will remove from him one of the distresses of the Day of Judgment. Whosoever alleviates a needy person, Allah will alleviate [his lot] in this world and the next. Whosoever shields a Muslim, Allah will shield him in this world and the next. Allah will aid a servant of His so long as the servant aids his brother. Whosoever follows a path to seek knowledge therein, Allah will make easy for him a path to Paradise. No people gather together in one of the houses of Allah, reciting the Book of Allah and studying it among themselves, without tranquility descending upon them, mercy enveloping them, the angels surrounding them, and Allah making mention of them amongst those who are with Him. Whosoever is slowed down by his actions will not be hastened forward by his lineage.

Allah has written down the good deeds and the bad ones. Then he explained it: He who has intended a good deed and has not done it, Allah writes it down with Himself as a full good deed, but if he has intended it and has done it, Allah writes it down with Himself as from ten good deeds to seven hundred times, or many times over. But if he has intended a bad deed and has not done it, Allah writes it down with Himself as a full good deed, but if he has intended it and has done it, Allah writes it down as one bad deed.

My servant does not draw near to Me with anything more loved by Me than the religious duties I have imposed upon him, and My servant continues to draw near to Me with supererogatory works so that I shall love him. When I love him I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he strikes, and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask something of Me, I would surely give it to him and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely grant him it.
