[ماذا تصنع إذا ضاع شيء أو أضعت شيئا؟]
What should you do if something is missing or you lost something?
سُئِلَ ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما عنِ الضَّالَّة؟
Ibn ‘Umar رضي الله عنه was asked about a missing object?
فقال يتوضّأ ويصلِّي ركعتين ثمَّ يتشهَّدُ ثمَّ يقولُ:
So he said that a person should make wudū and pray two raka’at, say the tashahhud and say:
اللَّهمَّ رادَّ الضَّالَّةِ هاديَ الضَّلالَةِ تَهدي من الضَّلالةِ ردَّ عليَّ ضالَّتي بعزَّتِك وسلطانِك فإنَّها من فضلك وعطائِك.
“O Allāh! The One Who returns lost objects, the One Who guides the mislead! You guide from error, return to me my lost item by Your Might and Your Sovereignty; indeed, that is from Your Grace and Generosity.”
(إسناده حسن)
Its chain is hasan.

Yahya bin Mu’ādh رحمه الله said:
“The hearts are like cooking pots. They boil with that which they contain and their tongues are their ladles. Therefore, look at a man when he speaks.
His tongue will scoop up for you that which is contained in his heart, whether it is sweet, bitter, fresh, salty and/or other than that. The flavour of his heart will become apparent to you from that which his tongue scoops up.”
Hilyat-ul-Awliyā’a, 10/63

"Neglecting to do a good deed in order to please people is hypocrisy, whereas doing a good deed to please people is polytheism.
Sincerity is that Allah protects you from both of those acts."
[Baghawī, Maʿālim al-tanzīl: i. 157]

"Kill Yusuf or cast him out to some other land, so that the favor of your father may be given to you alone, and after that you can become a righteous people." [12:9]
In his commentary on this ayah, Imam al-Baghawi wrote:
Muhammad ibn Ishaaq said, “What they did involved many sins including the cutting of blood ties, poor treatment of parents, lack of compassion towards a child who had done nothing wrong, making false promises to achieve their own aims, breaking their promises, and lying to their parents. But Allāh pardoned them for all of that so that no one could lose hope of Allāh’s mercy.”

Qatadah رضي الله عنه said,
"Know that sinning in the sacred months (Dhul Hijjah, Dhul Qaidah, Moharram and Rajab) is worse than sinning in other than them even though sinning in all circumstances is something not to be taken lightly, except Allah magnifies from the affairs that which is pleasing to him."

Umm Kulthum bint Abee Bakr used to say:
I prayed to Allah to bless me with a husband who would pour love on me in abundance and worship Allah a lot, so Allah blessed her with Talha ibn Ubaidullah رضي الله عنه (one of those who was promised Paradise)
The Salaf reported from her that she said:
If he saw me, he would rejoice when he heard my voice he would smile when I smile and if I cried, he would cry.
He would not sleep until he was reassured that I was warm in my bed, and he would not leave a prayer without praying for me in it before himself.
And if I became ill, he would share my pain as though the illness was in his body, and he would not be at ease until he would make me sit next to him, and whenever he ate he would start with the morsel to my mouth and feed me with his hand. I was his pride and honour in secret and in public.

In his collection of narration, Abu al-Qasim al-Baghawi wrote:
[أتى رجل عبدالله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه فقال : يا أبا عبدالرحمن علمني كلمات جوامع نوافع ؟
فقال : اعبد الله ولا تشرك به شيئا ، وزل مع القرآن حيث زال ، ومن جاءك بالحق فاقبل منه وإن كان بعيداً قصياً ، ومن جاءك بالباطل فاردده وإن كان قريبا حبيباً .]
A man came to Abdullah ibn Mas'ood and said, "Abu 'Abd al-Rahman, teach me some comprehensive and beneficial words."
Ibn Mas'ood replied, "Worship Allah without worshiping anything alongside Him. Go wherever the Qur'an takes you. Whoever comes to you with the truth, accept it from him even if he is a rough person whom you have no connection with. Whoever comes to you with falsehood, reject it even if he is a beloved close relative."

Shaykh al-Albānī رحمه الله:
“Know that articulating the intention was not legislated when making Ḥajj or when doing any other form of worship—like praying, fasting, or purifying one’s self—rather, the intention exists in the heart. As for uttering it, then this is an innovation, and every innovation is misguidance, and all misguidance leads to the Fire.”
[Ḥijjah al-Nabī, pg. 48]
