Which are the most severe and the most hopeful hadiths in the Noble Prophetic Sunnah?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The description "most severe hadith" refers to hadiths such as the squeezing of Sa'd ibn Mu'adh in the grave, and the hadith "Act, for everyone is facilitated for what he was created," which Ahmad ibn Hanbal views as a strong urging to act. As for the "most hopeful hadith," among those mentioned are the hadith about the Prophet's (peace be upon him) weeping for his Ummah and Allah Almighty's promise to him: "We shall surely please you concerning your Ummah and will not displease you," and the hadith "This is your release from the Fire," which will be said to every Muslim on the Day of Resurrection. In addition, there is the Qudsi hadith: "Whoever knows that I am capable of forgiving sins, I will forgive him and not care, as long as he does not associate anything with Me."
