A Muslim Convert Once Before

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ It is reported by Imam Abu ‘Isa Muhammad ibn ‘Isa as-Sulami at-Tirmidzi ( r.a. ), Imam Abu ʻAbdullah Muhammad ibn Yazid ibn Majah ( r.a. ), and Imam Abu Dawud Sulayman ibn al-Ash‘ats as-Sijistani ( r.a. ), that the Prophet ( s.a.w. ) said, “At the end of time, there will be days called the days of patience.  One holding onto their religion in those days is like one who holds onto a burning coal.  The Reward of one continuing to practice is like the reward of fifty men.”   The companions asked, “From amongst them, or from amongst us?”   The Prophet ( s.a.w. ) replied, “From amongst you.”   These are those days, where the Reward for keeping the religion alive, of reviving a sunnah , and being in the Path, is the Reward of fifty of the companions of the Prophet ( s.a.w. ).

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ Imam Abu Dawud Sulayman ibn al-Ash’ats as-Sijistani ( r.a. ) recorded, in his Sunan , that the Prophet ( s.a.w. ) said, “Beware, whosoever is cruel and harsh to the non-Muslims, usurping their rights, overburdening them and stealing from them; I will complain about that person on the Day of Judgement.”

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ Imam Ahmad al-Faruqi ibn 'Abd al-Ahad as-Sirhindi ( q.s. ) said, “Abu Dawud said, in a swahih hadits , that the Prophet ( s.a.w. ) said, ‘Allah will Send at the beginning of every century someone by whom the religion will be revived,’ but there is a difference between the Reviver of the Century and the Reviver of the Millennium.  It is the difference between one hundred and one thousand.”
