Sahih al-Bukhari
Actions are but by intention, and every man shall have only that which he intended. Whoever migrated for Allah and His Messenger, his migration was for Allah and His Messenger.#1Islam is built upon five: testifying that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, establishing prayer, paying zakat, the pilgrimage, and fasting Ramadan.#8None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.#13Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should speak good or remain silent; and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should honour his neighbour.#6018
