That day

One ayah. One hadith. One name. Quiet things, in their place.

Today's verse · dawn

Adh-Dhariyat 51:18

وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ

Wabil-ashari hum yastaghfiroon

And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,

In the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness. The signature of the muttaqeen.

Today's hadith · manners

Sunan Abi Dawud 4943, Jami' at-Tirmidhi 1919

Honour the elder

مَنْ لَمْ يَرْحَمْ صَغِيرَنَا وَيَعْرِفْ حَقَّ كَبِيرِنَا فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا

Man lam yarham saghirana wa ya'rif haqqa kabirina fa-laysa minna.

Whoever does not show mercy to our young and does not recognise the right of our elders is not one of us.

Narrated by Abdullah ibn Amr.
