"The One to whom belongs all sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. He never had a son, nor does He have any partners in sovereignty. He created everything in exact measure; He precisely designed everything." Qur'an 25:2

Here Are 40 Hadith Qudsi

(Who ever knows 40 hadith, at the day of judgement he will be raised as a Muhaddis.)

 

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 1:
-----------------
When Allah decreed the Creation He pledged Himself by writing in His book which
is laid down with Him: My mercy prevails over my wrath.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 2:
-----------------

The son of Adam denied Me and he had no right to do so. And he reviled Me and he
had no right to do so. As for his denying Me, it is his saying: He will not
remake me as He made me at first - and the initial creation [of him] is no
easier for Me than remaking him. As for his reviling Me, it is his saying: Assah
has taken to Himself a son, while I am the One, the Everlasting Refuge. I begot
not nor was I begotten, and there is none comparable to Me.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 3:
-----------------

The Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) led
the morning prayer for us at al-Hudaybiyah following rainfall during the night.
When the Prophet (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) finished, he
faced the people and said to them: Do you know what your Lord has said? They
said: Allah and his Messenger know best. He said: This morning one of my
servants became a believer in Me and one a disbeliever. As for him who said: We
have been given rain by virtue of Allah and His mercy, that one is a believer in
Me, a disbeliever in the stars; and as for him who said: We have been given rain
by such-and-such a star, that one is a disbeliever in Me, a believer in the
stars.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 4:
-----------------

Sons of Adam inveigh against [the vicissitudes of] Time, and I am Time, in My
hand is the night and the day.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 5:
-----------------

I am so self-sufficient that I am in no need of having an associate. Thus he
who does an action for someone else's sake as well as Mine will have that action
renounced by Me to him whom he associated with Me.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 6:
-----------------

The first of people against whom judgment will be pronounced on the Day of
Resurrection will be a man who died a martyr. He will be brought and Allah will
make known to him His favours and he will recognize them. [ The Almighty] will
say: And what did you do about them? He will say: I fought for you until I died
a martyr. He will say: You have lied - you did but fight that it might be said
[of you]: He is courageous. And so it was said. Then he will be ordered to be
dragged along on his face until he is cast into Hell-fire. [Another] will be a
man who has studied [religious] knowledge and has taught it and who used to
recite the Quran. He will be brought and Allah will make known to his His
favours and he will recognize them. [The Almighty] will say: And what did you
do about them? He will say: I studied [religious] knowledge and I taught it and
I recited the Quran for Your sake. He will say: You have lied - you did but
study [religious] knowledge that it might be said [of you]: He is learned. And
you recited the Quran that it might be said [of you]: He is a reciter. And so
it was said. Then he will be ordered to be dragged along on his face until he
is cast into Hell-fire. [Another] will be a man whom Allah had made rich and to
whom He had given all kinds of wealth. He will be brought and Allah will make
known to his His favours and he will recognize them. [The Almighty] will say:
And what did you do about them? He will say: I left no path [untrodden] in
which You like money to be spent without spending in it for Your sake. He will
say: You have lied - you did but do so that it might be said [of you]: He is
open-handed. And so it was said. Then he will be ordered to be dragged along
on his face until he is cast into Hell-fire.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 7:
-----------------

Your Lord delights at a shepherd who, on the peak of a mountain crag, gives the
call to prayer and prays. Then Allah (glorified and exalted be He) say: Look at
this servant of Mine, he gives the call to prayer and performs the prayers; he
is in awe of Me. I have forgiven My servant [his sins] and have admitted him to
Paradise.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 8:
-----------------

A prayer performed by someone who has not recited the Essence of the Quran
during it is deficient (and he repeated the word three times), incomplete.
Someone said to Abu Hurayrah: [Even though] we are behind the imam? He said:
Recite it to yourself, for I have heard the Prophet (may the blessings and peace
of Allah be up on him) say: Allah (mighty and sublime be He), had said: I have
divided prayer between Myself and My servant into two halves, and My servant
shall have what he has asked for. When the servant says: Al-hamdu lillahi rabbi
l-alamin, Allah (mighty and sublime be He) says: My servant has praised Me. And
when he says: Ar-rahmani r-rahim, Allah (mighty and sublime be He) says: My
servant has extolled Me, and when he says: Maliki yawmi d-din, Allah says: My
servant has glorified Me - and on one occasion He said: My servant has submitted
to My power. And when he says: Iyyaka na budu wa iyyaka nasta in, He says: This
is between Me and My servant, and My servant shall have what he has asked for.
And when he says: Ihdina s-sirata l- mustaqim, siratal ladhina an amta alayhim
ghayril-maghdubi alayhim wa la d-dallin, He says: This is for My servant, and My
servant shall have what he has asked for.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 9:
-----------------

The fist of his actions for which a servant of Allah will be held accountable on
the Day of Resurrection will be his prayers. If they are in order, then he will
have prospered and succeeded: and if they are wanting, then he will have failed
and lost. If there is something defective in his obligatory prayers, the Lord
(glorified and exalted be He) will say: See if My servant has any supererogatory
prayers with which may be completed that which was defective in his obligatory
prayers. Then the rest of his actions will be judged in like fashion.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 10:
-----------------

Fasting is Mine and it I who give reward for it. [A man] gives up his sexual
passion, his food and his drink for my sake. Fasting is like a shield, and he
who fasts has two joys: a joy whin he breaks his fast and a joy when he meets
his Lord. The change in the breath of the mouth of him who fasts is better in
Allah's estimation than the smell of musk.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 11:
-----------------

Spend (on charity), O son of Adam, and I shall spend on you.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 12:
-----------------

A man from among those who were before you was called to account. Nothing in
the way of good was found for him except that he used to have dealings with
people and, being well-to-do, he would order his servants to let off the man in
straitened circumstances [from repaying his debt]. He (the Prophet p.b.u.h)
said that Allah said: We are worthier than you of that (of being so generous).
Let him off.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 13:
-----------------

I was with the Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon
him) and there came to him two men: one of them was complaining of penury (being
very poor), while the other was complaining of brigandry (robbery). The
Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: As
for brigandry, it will be but a short time before a caravan will [be able to] go
out of Mecca without a guard. As for penury, the Hour (Day of Judgement) will
not arrive before one of you takes his charity around without finding anyone to
accept it from him. Then one of you will surely stand before Allah, there being
no screed between Him and him, nor an interpreter to translate for him. Then He
will say to him: Did I not bring you wealth? And he will say: Yes. Then He will
say: Did I not send to you a messenger? And he will say: Yes. And he will look
to his right and will see nothing but Hell-fire, then he will look to his left
and will see nothing but Hell-fire, so let each of you protect himself against
Hell-fire, be it with even half a date - and if he finds it not, then with a
kind word.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 14:
-----------------

Allah (glorified and exalted be He) has supernumerary angels who rove about
seeking out gatherings in which Allah's name is being invoked: they sit with
them and fold their wings round each other, fillin that which is between them
and between the lowest heaven. When [the people in the gathering] depart, [the
angels] ascend and rise up to heaven. He (the Prophet p.b.u.h.) said: Then
Allah (mighty and sublime be He) asks them - [though] He is most knowing about
them: From where have you come? And they say: We have come from some servants of
Yours on Earth: they were glorifying You (Subhana llah), exalting you (Allahu
akbar), witnessing that there is no god but You (La ilaha illa llah), praising
You (Al-Hamdu lillah), and asking [favours] of You. He says: And what do they
ask of Me? They say: They ask of You Your Paradise. He says: And have they
seen My Paradise? They say: No, O Lord. He says: And how would it be were they
to have seen My Paradise! They say: And they ask protection of You. He says:
From what do they ask protection of Me? They say: From Your Hell-fire, O Lord.
He says: And have they seen My Hell-fire? They say: NO. He says: And how would
it be were they to have seen My Hell-fire: They say: And they ask for Your
forgiveness. He (the Prophet p.b.u.h) said: Then He says: I have forgiven them
and I have bestowed upon them what they have asked for,and I have granted them
sanctuary from that from which they asked protection. He (the Prophet p.b.u.h)
said: They say: O Lord, among then is So-and-so, a much sinning servant, who was
merely passing by and sat down with them. He (the Prophet p.b.u.h) said: And He
says: And to him [too] I have given forgiveness: he who sits with such people
shall not suffer.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 15:
-----------------

I am as My servant thinks I am. I am with him when he makes mention of Me. If
he makes mention of Me to himself, I make mention of him to Myself; and if he
makes mention of Me in an assembly, I make mention of him in an assemble better
than it. And if he draws near to Me an arm's length, I draw near to him a
fathom's length. And if he comes to Me walking, I go to him at speed.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 16:
-----------------

Allah has written down the good deeds and the bad ones. Then He explained it
[by saying that] he who has intended a good deed and has not done it, Allah
writes it down with Himself as a full good deed, but if he has intended it and
has done it, Allah writes it down with Himself as from ten good deeds to seven
hundred times, or many times over. But if he has intended a bad deed and has
not done it, Allah writes it down with Himself as a full good deed, but if he
has intended it and has done it, Allah writes it down as one bad deed.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 17:
-----------------

O My servants, I have forbidden oppression for Myself and have made it forbidden
amongst you, so do not oppress one another. O My servants, all of you are
astray except for those I have guided, so seek guidance of Me and I shall guide
you, O My servants, all of you are hungry except for those I have fed, so seek
food of Me and I shall feed you. O My servants, all of you are naked except for
those I have clothed, so seek clothing of Me and I shall clothe you. O My
servants, you sin by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek
forgiveness of Me and I shall forgive you. O My servants, you will not attain
harming Me so as to harm Me, and will not attain benefitting Me so as to benefit
Me. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you
and the jinn of you to be as pious as the most pious heart of any one man of
you, that would not increase My kingdom in anything. O My servants, were the
first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to be as
wicked as the most wicked heart of any one man of you, that would not decrease
My kingdom in anything. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of
you, the human of you and the jinn of you to rise up in one place and make a
request of Me, and were I to give everyone what he requested, that would not
decrease what I have, any more that a needle decreases the sea if put into it.
O My servants, it is but your deeds that I reckon up for you and then recompense
you for, so let him finds good praise Allah and let him who finds other that
blame no one but himself.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 18:
-----------------

O son of Adam, I fell ill and you visited Me not. He will say: O Lord, and how
should I visit You when You are the Lord of the worlds? He will say: Did you
not know that My servant So-and-so had fallen ill and you visited him not? Did
you not know that had you visited him you would have found Me with him? O son
of Adam, I asked you for food and you fed Me not. He will say: O Lord, and how
should I feed You when You are the Lord of the worlds? He will say: Did you not
know that My servant So-and-so asked you for food and you fed him not? Did you
not know that had you fed him you would surely have found that (the reward for
doing so) with Me? O son of Adam, I asked you to give Me to drink and you gave
Me not to drink. He will say: O Lord, how should I give You to drink whin You
are the Lord of the worlds? He will say: My servant So-and-so asked you to give
him to drink and you gave him not to drink. Had you given him to drink you
would have surely found that with Me.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 19:
-----------------

Pride is my cloak and greatness My robe, and he who competes with Me in respect
of either of them I shall cast into Hell-fire.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 20:
-----------------

The gates of Paradise will be opened on Mondays and on Thursdays, and every
servant [of Allah] who associates nothing with Allah will be forgiven, except
for the man who has a grudge against his brother. [About them] it will be said:
Delay these two until they are reconciled; delay these two until they are
reconciled.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 21:
-----------------

There are three whose adversary I shall be on the Day of Resurrection: a man who
has given his word by Me and has broken it; a man who has sold a free man and
has consumed the price; and a man who has hired a workman, has exacted his due
in full from him and has not given him his wage.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 22:
-----------------

Let not any one of you belittle himself. They said: O Messenger of Allah, how
can any one of us belittle himself? He said: He finds a matter concerning Allah
about which he should say something, and he does not say [it], so Allah (mighty
and sublime be He) says to him on the Day of Resurrection: What prevented you
from saying something about such-and-such and such-and-such? He say: [It was]
out of fear of people. Then He says: Rather it is I whom you should more
properly fear.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 23:
-----------------

Where are those who love one another through My glory? Today I shall give them
shade in My shade, it being a day when there is no shade but My shade.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 24:
-----------------

If Allah has loved a servant [of His] He calls Gabriel (on whom be peace) and
says: I love So-and-so, therefore love him. He (the Prophet pbuh) said: So
Gabriel loves him. Then he (Gabriel) calls out in heaven, saying: Allah loves
So-and-so, therefore love him. And the inhabitants of heaven love him. He (the
Prophet pbuh) said: Then acceptance is established for him on earth. And if
Allah has abhorred a servant [of His], He calls Gabriel and says: I abhor
So-and-so, therefore abhor him. So Gabriel abhors him. Then Gabriel calls out
to the inhabitants of heaven: Allah abhors So-and-so, therefore abhor him. He
(the Prophet pbuh) said: So they abhor him, and abhorrence is established for
him on earth.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 25:
-----------------

Whosoever shows enmity to someone devoted to Me, I shall be at war with him. My
servant draws not near to Me with anything more loved by Me than the religious
duties I have enjoined upon him, and My servant continues to draw near to Me
with supererogatory works so that I shall love him. When I love him I am his
hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which
he strikes and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask [something] of Me,
I would surely give it to him, and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely
grant him it. I do not hesitate about anything as much as I hesitate about
[seizing] the soul of My faithful servant: he hates death and I hate hurting
him.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 26:
-----------------

Truly of those devoted to Me the one I most favour is a believer who is of
meagre means and much given to prayer, who has been particular in the worship of
his Lord and has obeyed Him inwardly, who was obscure among people and not
pointed our, and whose sustenance was just sufficient to provide for him yet he
bore this patiently. Then the Prophet (pbuh) rapped his hand and said: Death
will have come early to him, his mourners will have been few, his estate
scant.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 27:
-----------------

We asked Abdullah (i.e. Ibn Masud) about this verse: And do not regard those who
have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead, rather are they alive with their
Lord, being provided for (Quran Chapter 3 Verse 169). He said: We asked about
that and the Prophet (pbuh) said: Their souls are in the insides of green birds
having lanterns suspended from the Throne, roaming freely in Paradise where they
please, then taking shelter in those lanterns. So their Lord cast a glance at
them and said: Do you wish for anything? They said: What shall we wish for when
we roam freely in Paradise where we please? And thus did He do to them three
times. When they say that they would not be spared from being asked [again],
they said: O Lord, we would like for You to put back our souls into our bodies
so that we might fight for Your sake once again. And when He saw that they were
not in need of anything they were let be.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 28:
-----------------

There was amongst those before you a man who had a wound. He was in [such]
anguish that he took a knife and made with it a cut in his hand, and the blood
did not cease to flow till he died. Allah the Almighty said: My servant has
himself forestalled Me; I have forbidden him Paradise.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 29:
-----------------

My faithful servant's reward from Me, if I have taken to Me his best friend from
amongst the inhabitants of the world and he has then borne it patiently for My
sake, shall be nothing less than Paradise.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 30:
-----------------

If My servant likes to meet Me, I like to meet him; and if he dislikes to meet
Me, I dislike to meet him. Prophetic explanation of this Sacred Hadith: He who
likes to meet Allah, Allah likes to meet him; and he who dislikes to meet Allah,
Allah dislikes to meet him. Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: O
Prophet of Allah, is it because of the dislike of death, for all of us dislike
death? The Prophet (pbuh) said: It is not so, but rather it is that when the
believer is given news of Allah's mercy, His approval and His Paradise, he likes
to meet Allah and Allah likes to meet him; but when the unbeliever is given
news of Allah's punishment and His displeasure, he dislikes to meet Allah and
Allah dislikes to meet him.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 31:
-----------------

A man said: By Allah, Allah will not forgive So-and-so. At this Allah the
Almighty said: Who is he who swears by Me that I will not forgive So-and-so?
Verily I have forgiven So-and-so and have nullified your [own good] deeds (or as
he said [it]).

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 32:
-----------------

A man sinned greatly against himself, and when death came to him he charged his
sons, saying: When I have died, burn me, then crush me and scatter [my ashes]
into the sea, for, by Allah, if my Lord takes possession of me, He will punish
me in a manner in which He has punished no one [else]. So they did that to
him. Then He said to the earth: Produce what you have taken-and there he was!
And He said to him: What induced you to do what you did? He said: Being afraid
of You, O my Lord (or he said: Being frightened of You) and because of that He
forgave him.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 33:
-----------------

A servant [of Allah's] committed a sin and said: O Allah, forgive me my sin.
And He (glorified and exalted be He) said: My servant has committed a sin and
has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes for them. Then he
sinned again and said: O Lord, forgive me my sin. And He (glorified and exalted
be He) said: My servant has committed a sin and has known that he has a Lord who
forgives sins and punishes for them. Then he sinned again and said: O Lord,
forgive me my sin. And He (glorified and exalted be He) said: My servant has
committed a sin and has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins and punishes
for sins. Do what you wish, for I have forgiven you.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 34:
-----------------

O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me, I shall forgive you
for what you have done, and I shall not mind. O son of Adam, were your sins to
reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would
forgive you. O son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as
the earth and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would
bring you forgiveness nearly as great at it.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 35:
-----------------

Our Lord (glorified and exalted be He) descends each night to the earth's sky
when there remains the final third of the night, and He says: Who is saying a
prayer to Me that I may answer it? Who is asking something of Me that I may
give it him? Who is asking forgiveness of Me that I may forgive him? And thus
He continues till [the light of] dawn shines.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 36:
-----------------

The believers will gather together on the Day of Resurrection and will say:
Should we not ask [someone] to intercede for us with our Lord? So they will
come to Adam and will say: You are the Father of mankind; Allah created you with
His hand He made His angels bow down to you and He taught you the names of
everything, so intercede for us with you Lord so that He may give us relief form
this place where we are. And he will say: I am not in a position [to do that] -
and he will mention his wrongdoing and will feel ashamed and will say: Go to
Noah, for he is the first messenger that Allah sent to the inhabitants of the
earth. So they will come to him and he will say: I am not in a position [to do
that] - and he will mention his having requested something of his Lord about
which he had no [proper] knowledge (Quran Chapter 11 Verses 45-46), and he will
feel ashamed and will say: Go to the Friend of the Merciful (Abraham). So they
will come to him and he will say: I am not in a position [to do that]. Go to
Moses, a servant to whom Allah talked and to whom He gave the Torah. So they
will come to him and he will say: I am not in a position [to do that] - and he
will mention the talking of a life other that for a life (Quran Chapter 28
Verses 15-16), and he will fell ashamed in the sight of his Lord and will say:
Go to Jesus, Allah's servant and messenger, Allah's word and spirit. So they
will come to him and he will say: I am not in a position [to do that]. Go to
Muhammad (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), a servant to whom
Allah has forgiven all his wrongdoing, past and future. So they will come to me
and I shall set forth to ask permission to come to my Lord, and permission will
be given, and when I shall see my Lord I shall prostrate myself. He will leave
me thus for such time as it pleases Him, and then it will be said [to me]: Raise
your head. Ask and it will be granted. Speak and it will be heard. Intercede
and your intercession will be accepted. So I shall raise my head and praise Him
with a form of praise that He will teach me. Then I shall intercede and HE will
set me a limit [as to the number of people], so I shall admit them into
Paradise. Then I shall return to Him, and when I shall see my Lord [I shall bow
down] as before. Then I shall intercede and He will set me a limit [as to the
number of people]. So I shall admit them into Paradise. Then I shall return
for a third time, then a fourth, and I shall say: There remains in Hell-fire
only those whom the Quran has confined and who must be there for eternity.
There shall come out of Hell-fire he who has said: There is no god but Allah and
who has in his heart goodness weighing a barley-corn; then there shall come out
of Hell-fire he who has said: There is no god but Allah and who has in his heart
goodness weighing a grain of wheat; then there shall come out of Hell-fire he
who has said: There is no god but Allah and who has in his heart goodness
weighing an atom.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 37:
-----------------

I have prepared for My righteous servants what no eye has seen and no ear has
heard, not has it occurred to human heart. Thus recite if you wish: And no soul
knows what joy for them (the inhabitants of Paradise) has been kept hidden
(Quran Chapter 32 Verse 17).

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 38:
-----------------

When Allah created Paradise and Hell-fire, He sent Gabriel to Paradise, saying:
Look at it and at what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants. The Prophet
(pbuh) said: So he came to it and looked at it and at what Allah had prepared
therein for its inhabitants. The Prophet (pbuh) said: So he returned to Him and
said: By your glory, no one hears of it without entering it. So He ordered that
it be encompassed by forms of hardship, and He said: Return to it and look at
what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants. The Prophet (pbuh) said: So
he returned to it and found that it was encompassed by forms of hardship. Then
he returned to Him and said: By Your glory, I fear that no one will enter it.
He said: Go to Hell-fire and look at it and what I have prepared therein for its
inhabitants, and he fount that it was in layers, one above the other. Then he
returned to Him and said: By Your glory, no one who hears of it will enter it.
So He ordered that it be encompassed by lusts. Then He said: Return to it. And
he returned to it and said: By Your glory, I am frightened that no one will
escape from entering it.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 39:
-----------------

Paradise and Hell-fire disputed together, and Hell-fire said: In me are the
mighty and the haughty. Paradise said: In me are the weak and the poor. So
Allah judged between them, [saying]: You are Paradise, My mercy; through you I
show mercy to those I wish. And you are Hell-fire, My punishment; through you I
punish those I wish, and it is incumbent upon Me that each of you shall have its
fill.

-----------------
Hadith Qudsi 40:
-----------------

Allah will say to the inhabitant of Paradise: O inhabitants of Paradise! They
will say: O our Lord, we present ourselves and are at Your pleasure, and
goodness rests in Your hands. Then He will say: Are you contented? And they
will say: And how should we not be contented, O Lord, when You have given to us
that which You have given to no one else of Your creation? Then He will say:
Would not like Me to give you something better than that? And they will say: O
Lord and what thing is better than that? And He will say: I shall cause My
favour to descend upon you and thereafter shall never be displeased with you.
