Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The first batch (of people) who will enter Paradise will be (glittering) like a full
moon; and those who will enter next will be (glittering) like the brightest star. Their hearts will be as if
the heart of a single man, for they will have no enmity amongst themselves, and everyone of them
shall have two wives, each of whom will be so beautiful, pure and transparent that the marrow of the
bones of their legs will be seen through the flesh. They will be glorifying Allah in the morning and
evening, and will never fall ill, and they will neither blow their noses, nor spit. Their utensils will be
of gold and silver, and their combs will be of gold, and the fuel used in their centers will be the aloeswood,
and their sweat will smell like musk."

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Your (ordinary) fire is one of 70 parts of the (Hell) Fire." Someone asked, "O

secretly without opening a gate (of affliction), for neither do I want to be the first to open it (i.e.
rebellion), nor will I say to a man who is my ruler that he is the best of all the people after I have
heard something from Allah s Apostle ." They said, What have you heard him saying? He said, "I
have heard him saying, "A man will be brought on the Day of Resurrection and thrown in the (Hell)
Fire, so that his intestines will come out, and he will go around like a donkey goes around a millstone.
The people of (Hell) Fire will gather around him and say: O so-and-so! What is wrong with you?
Didn't you use to order us to do good deeds and forbid us to do bad deeds? He will reply: Yes, I used
to order you to do good deeds, but I did not do them myself, and I used to forbid you to do bad deeds,
yet I used to do them myself."

Magic was worked on the Prophet (ﷺ) so that he began to fancy that he was doing a thing which he was
not actually doing. One day he invoked (Allah) for a long period and then said, "I feel that Allah has
inspired me as how to cure myself. Two persons came to me (in my dream) and sat, one by my head
and the other by my feet. One of them asked the other, "What is the ailment of this man?" The other
replied, 'He has been bewitched" The first asked, 'Who has bewitched him?' The other replied, 'Lubaid
bin Al-A'sam.' The first one asked, 'What material has he used?' The other replied, 'A comb, the hair
gathered on it, and the outer skin of the pollen of the male date-palm.' The first asked, 'Where is that?'
The other replied, 'It is in the well of Dharwan.' " So, the Prophet (ﷺ) went out towards the well and then
returned and said to me on his return, "Its date-palms (the date-palms near the well) are like the heads
of the devils." I asked, "Did you take out those things with which the magic was worked?" He said,
"No, for I have been cured by Allah and I am afraid that this action may spread evil amongst the
people." Later on the well was filled up with earth.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "During your sleep, Satan knots three knots at the back of the head of each of
you, and he breathes the following words at each knot, 'The night is, long, so keep on sleeping,' If that
person wakes up and celebrates the praises of Allah, then one knot is undone, and when he performs
ablution the second knot is undone, and when he prays, all the knots are undone, and he gets up in the
morning lively and in good spirits, otherwise he gets up in low spirits and lethargic."
