Messenger of Allah admonished me with regard to nine things

Abū’d Dardā’ رضي الله عنه said: 

“The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم admonished me with regard to nine things:-

• Do not associate anything with Allah, even if you are cut to pieces or burnt. Do not abandon an obligatory prayer deliberately. Anyone who deliberately abandons it will lose Allah’s protection. 

• Do not drink wine for it is the key to every evil.  

• Obey your parents, even if they command you to abandon your worldly possessions, then leave it for their sake. 

• Do not contend with those in power, even if you think you are more capable. 

• Do not run away from the army when it advances, even if you are killed and your companions run away.

• Spend on your wife out of your means. 

• Do not raise a stick against your wife. 

• Command your family to fear Allah, the Mighty and Exalted.” 

(Sound)
