In The Name Of Allah
Most Gracious Most Merciful
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatuallahi wa barakatuhu
O Lord, My Ummah, My Ummah!
Most beloved people by Prophet
Muhammad[salle allahu alai hi wa sallam]
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 6791 Narrated
byAbuHurayrah
Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) said:
The people most loved by me from amongst my Ummah would be those who would come after me
but everyone amongst them would have the keenest desire to catch a glimpse of me even at
the cost of his family and wealth.
O Lord, my Ummah, my Ummah
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 397 Narrated
byAbdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As
Verily the Apostle of Allah (peace be
upon him) recited the words of Allah, the Great and Glorious, that Ibrahim uttered: My
Lord! Lo! they have led many of mankind astray: "But whoso followeth me, he verily is of
me" (al-Qur'an, xiv.35), and Jesus (peace be upon him) said: "If thou punisheth them,
lo! they are Thy slaves, and if Thou forgiveth them--verily Thou art the Mighty, the
Wise" (al-Qur'an, v.117). Then he raised his hands and said: O Lord, my Ummah, my Ummah,
and wept. So Allah, the High and the Exalted, said: O Gabriel, go to Muhammad (though
your Lord knows it fully well) and ask him: what makes thee weep? So Gabriel (p.) came
to him and asked him, and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) informed him of
what he had said (though Allah knew it fully well). Upon this Allah said: O Gabriel, go
to Muhammad and say: Verily We shall please thee with regard to your Ummah and shall not
displease thee.
A group of people from my Ummah
will continue to fight in obedience to the Command of Allah, remaining dominant over
their enemies
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 4721 Narrated
byUqbah ibn Amir
It has
been narrated on the authority of AbdurRahman ibn Shamasah al-Mahri who said: I was in
the company of Maslamah ibn Mukhallad, and Abdullah ibn Amr ibn 'As was with him.
Abdullah said: The Hour shall come only when the worst type of people are left on the
earth. They will be worse than the people of pre-Islamic days. They will receive
whatever they ask of Allah. While we were still sitting, Uqbah ibn Amr came and
Maslamah said to him: Uqbah, listen to what Abdullah says. Uqbah said: He knows better
so far as I am concerned. I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say: A
group of people from my Ummah will continue to fight in obedience to the Command of
Allah, remaining dominant over their enemies. Those who oppose them shall not do them
any harm. They will remain in this condition until the Hour overtakes them. (At this)
Abdullah said: Yes. Then Allah will raise a wind which will be fragrant like musk and
whose touch will be like the touch of silk; (but) it will cause the death of all
(faithful) persons, not leaving behind a single person with an iota of faith in his
heart. Then only the worst of men will remain to be overwhelmed by the Hour.
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 4715 Narrated
byThawban
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon
him) said: A group of people from my Ummah will always remain triumphant on the right
path and continue to be triumphant (against their opponents). He who deserts them shall
not be able to do them any harm. They will remain in this position until Allah's Command
is executed (i.e. Qayamah is established). In Qutaybah's version of the tradition, we do
not have the words: "They will remain in this position."
In Ummah some people will kill or
imprison the others
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 6904 Narrated
byThawban
Allah's Apostle
(peace be upon him) said: Allah drew the ends of the world together for my sake. I have
seen its eastern and western ends. The dominion of my Ummah will reach those ends which
have been drawn together near me and I have been granted the red and the white
treasures. I begged my Lord that my Ummah should not be destroyed by famine, nor be
dominated by a foreign enemy who will take their lives and destroy them root and
branch. My Lord said: Muhammad, whenever I make a decision, there is none to change it.
Well, I grant you that your Ummah will not be destroyed by famine, nor will it be
dominated by a foreign enemy who will take their lives and destroy them root and branch,
even if all the people from the different parts of the world join hands together (for
this purpose). However, it will be from amongst them, viz. your Ummah, that some people
will kill or imprison the others.
No bloodshed among the people of my
Ummah, but He did not grant it
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 6906 Narrated
bySa'd ibn AbuWaqqas
One day Allah's Apostle (peace be upon
him) came from a high land. He passed by the mosque of Banu Mu'awiyah, went in and
observed two rak'ahs there and we also observed prayer along with him and he made a long
supplication to his Lord. He then came to us and said: I asked my Lord three things and
He has granted me two but has withheld one. I begged my Lord that my Ummah should not be
destroyed because of famine and He granted me this. And I begged my Lord that my Ummah
should not be destroyed by drowning (by deluge) and He granted me this. And I begged my
Lord that there should be no bloodshed among the people of my Ummah, but He did not
grant it.
My Ummah (nation) will be tried through wealth
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 481
Narrated byKa'b ibn Iyad
I heard the Prophet (peace be upon him)
say: Every ummah (nation) has a test to undergo, my Ummah (nation) will be tried through
wealth.

My prayer for the intercession of my Ummah
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 96 Narrated
byJabir ibn Abdullah
Jabir reported from the Apostle of Allah
(peace be upon him): For every apostle was a prayer with which he prayed (to his Lord)
for his Ummah, but I have reserved my prayer for the intercession of my Ummah on the Day
of Resurrection.
Nothing can be gathered from thorny trees except thorns
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 262
Narrated byAbdullah ibn Abbas
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him)
said: Verily some from amongst my Ummah will acquire the understanding of religion,
recite the Qur'an, and would say: We will go to the men of authority and partake of
their worldly (riches) and (then) withdraw from them with our religion. But it can't be;
as nothing can be gathered from thorny trees except thorns, similarly nothing can be
gathered by drawing near to them except.. - Muhammad ibn as-Sabbah said: (the same),
i.e. sin and vice.

As a single Ummah
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 259
Narrated byAnas ibn Malik
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him)
said: Do you know who is most generous? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best.
Whereupon he said: Allah is the Most Generous, then I am most generous to mankind, and
the most generous people after me would be those who will acquire knowledge and then
disseminate it. He will come on the Day of Resurrection singly, like a ruler, or he
said: As a single Ummah.

Allah knows best
