Allah has appointed an angel in the womb
The Prophet Salla-Allahu ‘Alayhi wa Sallam said,
"Allah has appointed an angel in the womb, and the angel says, 'O Lord! A drop of discharge (i.e. of semen), O Lord! a clot, O Lord! a piece of flesh.' And then, if Allah wishes to complete the child's creation, the angel will say. 'O Lord! A male or a female? O Lord! wretched or blessed (in religion)? What will his livelihood be? What will his age be?' The angel writes all this while the child is in the womb of its mother."
Bukhari

Life is a delusion
"Every self will taste death. You will be paid your wages in full on the Day of Rising. Anyone who is distanced from the Fire and admitted to the Garden, has triumphed. The life of this world is only the enjoyment of delusion," (3:185)

“Whoever prays four rak’ah after the Ishaa Prayer then they will be like their equivalent performed on Lailatul Qadr”

When it is friday angels stand at the gate of the mosque
The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasallam) said,
"When it is a Friday, the angels stand at the gate of the mosque and keep on writing the names of the persons coming to the mosque in succession according to their arrivals.
The example of the one who enters the mosque in the earliest hour is that of one offering a camel (in sacrifice). The one coming next is like one offering a cow and then a ram and then a chicken and then an egg respectively.
When the Imam comes out (for Jumua prayer), they (i.e. angels) fold their papers and listen to the Khutba."
(Sahih al-Bukhari 929)

Narrated Abu Huraira (radhiAllaahu anhu): The Prophet (sallAllaahu alaihi wa sallam) said, "Seven people will be shaded by Allaah under His shade on the day when there will be no shade except His(subhanahu wa ta'aala). They are:

worship Allaah (Alone) sincerely from his childhood),
(3) A man whose heart is attached to the mosque (who offers the five
compulsory congregational prayers in the mosque);
(4) Two persons who love each other only for Allaah's sake and they meet and part in Allaah's cause only;
(5) A man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for an
illegal sexual intercourse with her and says: I am afraid of Allaah;
(6) A person who practices charity so secretly that his left hand does not
know what his right hand has given (i.e. nobody knows how much he has given
in charity).
(7) A person who remembers Allaah in seclusion and his eyes get flooded with
tears."

Jannah (Paradise) for the blind and deaf people
Will the blind and deaf people enter Jannah (Paradise)? Reported by Anas (RA): I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) saying, “Allah, the Glorious and Exalted said: “When I afflict my slave in his two dear things (i.e. his eyes), and he endures patiently, I shall compensate him for them with Jannah.”
[Al-Bukhari] This also goes for the deaf people as well.
Three men whose dua is never rejected by Allah
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) declared, 'Three men whose dua is never rejected (by Allah) are: the fasting person until he breaks his fast (in another narration, when he breaks fast), the just ruler and the one who is oppressed.' [Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi - Hasan]
Excellent creation...
51:47-49 Surat Adh-Dhāriyāt
And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.
And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.
And of all things We created two mates; perhaps you will remember.
31:10 Surat Luqmān
He has created the heavens without any pillars, that you see and has set on the earth firm mountains, lest it should shake with you. And He has scattered therein moving (living) creatures of all kinds. And We send down water (rain) from the sky, and We cause (plants) of every goodly kind to grow therein.
Allah forgives all sins
Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah . Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful." (39:53) Except those who repent and believe and work righteous deeds, for them Allah will change their evil deeds to good deeds, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. [Sûrah al-Furqân: 70] If you repent Allah will change your evil deeds into good deeds inshallah (God-willing).
Innovation (bidah)
Every
innovation is an error Muhammad (s.a.w) said in a sahih hadith "every
innovation is an error.." (muslim) and Allah said I have perfected your
religion (5:3)
Second coming of Jesus Christ (pbuh)
When Jesus (pbuh) returns this is what will happen: Narrated Abu Huraira (r.a) that Muhammad (s.a.w) said:
The Hour will not be established until the Son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you as a just ruler, he will break the cross, kill the pigs, and abolish the Jizyah tax. Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it (as charitable gifts). (Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 3, Book 43, No. 656)

Description of Jannah (Paradise) 2
Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) said: “The roots of date palms in Paradise are of green emeralds. And their branches are red gold. And their leaves are clothing for the people of Paradise... Its fruits... are whiter than milk and purer than honey...” (Related by Abu Bakr ibn Abee Ad-Dunyaa)

Surah: 16. an-Nahl
31. Gardens of Eternity which they will enter: beneath them flow (pleasant) rivers: they will have therein all that they wish: thus does Allah reward the righteous Surah: 18. al-Kahf 31. For them will be Gardens of Eternity; beneath them rivers will flow; they will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and they will wear green garments of fine silk and heavy brocade; they will recline therein on raised thrones. How good the recompense! How beautiful a couch to recline on!
Death, Grave: Questioning in the grave for the believers
From Al-Baraa’ ibn Aazib (ra), who said:
"We went out with Allah’s Messenger (saws) with the funeral of a man of the Ansar and we came to the grave and the niche in the side of the grave (al-Lahd), had not been dug out yet, so Allah’s Messenger (saws) sat and we sat around him as if we had birds upon our heads, and in his hand he had a stick with which he was striking the ground. Then he raised his head and said: ‘Seek Allah’s refuge from the Punishment of the Grave,’ two or three times. Then he said: ‘When the believing servant is leaving this world and going onto the Hereafter, angels with white faces - as if their faces were in the Sun - descend upon him. With them is a shroud from the shrouds of Paradise and perfume for embalming from the perfume of Paradise, so they sit away from him at the distance the eye can see and then the Angel of Death (as) comes and sits by his head and says: "O good soul, come out to forgiveness from Allah and His good pleasure." He said: "So it comes out, just as a drop flows out from the mouth of the drinking vessel, and he takes it but does not leave it in his hand even for the blink of an eye until they take it and places it in that shroud, and that perfume, and there comes out from him a smell like that of the best musk found upon the face of the earth." He said: "So they ascend with it, (i.e. the persons soul) and they do not pass by any group of Angels except that they say: ‘Who is this good and pure soul?’ So they reply: "So and so, the son of so and so." with the best of his names which he used to be called by in this world, until they come to the lowest Heaven, and ask that it should be opened for him, so it is opened for him, they accompany him through every Heaven until he is taken up to the seventh Heaven, and Allah the Al-Mighty says: "Write the record of my slave in Illiyon (signifying highness) and return him to earth to his body." Then they say: "Who is your Lord?" So he will say: "My Lord is Allah." So they will say: "What is your Deen?" He will say: "My Deen is Islam." So they say: "Who is the man who was sent amongst you?" So he will say: "He is Allah’s Messenger." So they say: "How did you come to know that?" So he will say: "I read the Book of Allah, and believed in it , and attested to it." So a caller will call from Heaven: "Indeed My servant has spoken the Truth, so spread a place for him in Paradise, and a open a door to Paradise for him, so some of its fragrances and scents come to him and his grave is extended as far as the eye can see." He said: "A person with a Handsome face, and beautiful clothes and good smell comes to him and says. ‘Receive good news, which will please you. This is the day which you were promised.’ So he says to him: "Who are you?, since your face appears to signify good." So he says: "I am your righteous actions." He therefore says: "O Lord, establish the Last Hour. O Lord establish the Last Hour - so that I may return to my family and wealth."
Knock on the door...
"O you who believe! enter not houses other than your own, until you have asked permission and saluted those in them: that is best for you, in order that you may heed (what is seemly). If you find no one in the house, enter not until permission is given to you: if you are asked to go back, go back: that makes for greater purity for yourselves: and Allah knows well all that ye do." 24:27-28
Little thanks you give
It is He, Who has created for you (the sense of) hearing (ears), sight (eyes), and hearts (understanding). Little thanks you give. (23:78)
Were they created by nothing
Or were they created by nothing, or were they the creators [of themselves]? Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain. (52:35-36)
Muhsin Khan
Were they created by nothing, or were they themselves the creators?
