Choose any two of the following Hadiths, and: (i) لا يُؤْمِنُ أَحَدُكُمْ حَتَّى يُحِبَّ لِأَخِيهِ مَا يُحِبُّ لِنَفْسِهِ. None of you believes until he wants for his brother what he wants for himself. (ii) قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَليهِ وسَلَّمَ: مَا تَعُدُّهْنَ الشَّهيدَ فِيكُمْ ؟ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ قُتِلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ. قَالَ: إِنَّ شُهَدَاءَ أُمَّتِي إِذا لَقَلِيلٌ مَنْ قُتِلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ، وَمَنْ مَاتَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ، وَمَنْ مَاتَ فِي الطَّاعُوْن فَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ، وَمَنْ مَاتَ في الْبَطْنِ فَهُوَ شَهِيدٌ. The Messenger of Allah (May Allah bless him and give him peace) said: 'Whom do you count to be a martyr among you?' They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, whoever is killed in the way of Allah is a martyr.' He said: 'In that case the martyrs of my community will be very few! He who is killed in the way of Allah is a martyr, he who dies a natural death in the way of Allah is a martyr, he who dies in the plague in the way of Allah is a martyr, he who dies of cholera in the way of Allah is a martyr.' (iii) السَّاعِي عَلَى الْأَرْمَلَةِ وَالْمِسْكِيْنِ كَالْمُجَاهِدِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ، أو القَائِمِ اللَّيْلَ الصَّائِمِ النَّهَارَ. One who manages the affairs of the widow and the poor man is like the one who exerts himself in the way of Allah, or the one who stands for prayer in the night or fasts in the day. (iv) رَحِمَ اللَّهُ رَجُلًا سَمْحًا إِذا بَاعَ ، وَإِذَا اشْتَرَى، وَإِذَا أَقْتَضَى. May God show mercy to a man who is kindly when he sells, when he buys, and when he demands his money back.
