Chapter: Revelation
From: Sahih Bukhari
Volume 1, Book 1, Number 1: Narrated 'Umar bin
Al-Khattab: I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "The
reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every
person will get the reward according to what he has
intended. So whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or
for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he
emigrated for."
Volume 1, Book 1, Number 2: Narrated 'Aisha (the
mother of the faithful believers): Al-Harith bin
Hisham asked Allah's Apostle "O Allah's Apostle! How
is the Divine Inspiration revealed to you?" Allah's
Apostle replied, "Sometimes it is (revealed) like the
ringing of a bell, this form of Inspiration is the
hardest of all and then this state passes after I have
grasped what is inspired. Sometimes the Angel comes in
the form of a man and talks to me and I grasp whatever
he says." 'Aisha added: Verily I saw the Prophet being
inspired Divinely on a very cold day and noticed sweat
dropping from his forehead (as the Inspiration was
over).

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom
(i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue
with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone
astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in
His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites
(men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I
am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if
Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of
camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever
calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who
follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
