Narrated by Muslim
line

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that lenience, mildness, and deliberateness in speech and behavior add beauty and excellence to things, making it easier for a person to fulfill his needs.

Narrated by Muslim
line

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) teaches his Ummah how to seek refuge with Allah Almighty in an effective way that wards off anything fearful when a person stops anywhere during a journey, a picnic, or otherwise. In such a situation, one should seek refuge in the words of Allah - which contain perfect excellence, blessing, and benefit and are free from any defect or deficiency - from the evil of any created being. Thus, he will be safe from anything harmful for as long as he stays in that place.

Narrated by Muslim
line

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs that remembering Allah Almighty with these noble phrases is better than the world and what it contains. The phrases are: Subhān Allah (Glory be to Allah): Exalting Allah far above imperfections.

Wa lā ilāha illa Allah (There is no god but Allah): None is truly worthy of worship except Allah. Wa Allāhu akbar (Allah is the Most Great): He is Greater and more Sublime than all else.
