The third section of the 130 Hadeeth on Manners is called: Baab az-Zuhd wal-Wara' (the Section on Asceticism and Vigilance); it has 11 hadeeth narrations.

In Islamic rulings, everything is either clearly halaal (permissible) or clearly haraam (forbidden).

The most important organ in the human body, religiously speaking, is the brain. If it is sound, the whole body will be sound. If it is corrupt, the whole body will be corrupt.

Some people can become so obsessed with materialism that they could legitimately be called 'Abd ad-Dirham ("worshipper/slave of the silver coin").

Being in this world like a stranger or wayfarer means to take what you need from it to reach your real destination (the Hereafter), without getting too attached to this world.

People by nature admire others and try to resemble them. We must avoid admiration of evil people, so we do not end up resembling them.

If we uphold the limits of Allah in our lives and honor His commands and prohibitions, He will preserve us with special kinds of preservation.

When Sahl ibn Sa'd asked about something that would earn him Allah's Love, the Prophet (may Allah raise his rank and grant him peace) told him to focus greatly on worldly matters. (Assuming the hadeeth to be authentic as Ibn Hajar graded it.)

Allah loves pious servants, those who are content and modestly reserved.

From a man's good practice of Islam is to focus on matters that do not concern him.
