Translation: " And (remember) when your Lord proclaimed: " If you give thanks (by accepting Faith and worshipping none but Allah), I will give you more (of My Blessings); but if you are thankless (i.e. disbelievers), verily My Punishment is indeed severe. *** (14: 7) And

Translation: " Their way of request therein will be: " Subhânaka Allahumma (Glory to You, O Allah!) " and " Salâm (peace, safety from evil) " will be their greetings therein (Paradise)! and the close of their request will be: " Al-Hamdu Lillâhi Rabbil - ' Alamin (all the praises and thanks are to Allah, the Lord of ' Alamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists)). " (10: 10)

Translation: 760. Narrated by Abu-Horaira ' Allah's Messenger said: " On the night of my journey by night to Heaven, I saw (the Prophet) Musa (Moses) who was thin person with soft hair, looking like one of the men of the tribe of Shanu'a, and I saw Isa (Jesus) who was of average height with red face as if he had just come out of a bath-room. And I resemble Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) more than any of his offspring does. Then I was given two cups, one containing milk and the other wine. Gabriel (peace be upon him) said: ' Drink whichever you like. ' I took the milk and drank it. Gabriel said: ' You have accepted what is natural. ' (the True Religion i.e. Islam) and if you had taken the wine, your followers would have gone astray. " 2017 (Bukhari 607, Vol. 4)

Translation: 761. Narrated Abu-Sinan: ' I buried my son Sinan and Abu-Talha Al-Khawlani was sitting on the edge of the grave. When I wanted to leave the graveside he held my hand to assist me and said: " May I give you good tidings Abu-Sinan? " I said: " Yes, indeed. " He said: " Abu-Musa Al-Asha'ari narrated: The Messenger of Allah said: " When the servant of Allah's son dies, Allah says to His angels: ' Have you taken away the soul of the son of my servant? " They say: ' Yes. ' He says: ' Have you taken away the fruit of my servant's heart? " They say: ' Yes. ' He says: " What did My servant say? " They say: ' He praised You and Istarja'a ". He then will say: ' So, build a palace for My servant and call it the House of Praise. " 3333 9 He said: " Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return. "
