Choose any two of the following Hadiths, and: (i) The world is the believer's prison and the unbeliever's paradise. الدُّنْيَا سِجْنُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَجَنَّهُ الْكَافِرِ. (ii) It was said: O Messenger of Allah, who is the most excellent of men? The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless and give him peace) said: ‘The believer who strives hard in the way of Allah with his person and his property.' قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَليهِ وسَلَّمَ): مُؤْمِنٌ يُجَاهِدُ في سَبيلِ اللَّهِ بِنَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ. (iii) May God show mercy to a man who is kindly when he sells, when he buys, and when he demands his money back. رَحِمَ اللَّهُ رَجُلًا سَمْحًا إِذا بَاعَ ، وَإِذَا اشْتَرَى، وَإِذَا اقْتَضَى. (iv) The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless and give him peace) sent Abu Musa and Mu'adh ibn Jabal to Yaman, and he sent each of them to govern a part. Then he said: 'Be gentle and do not be hard, and cause rejoicing and do not alienate.' بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَبَا مُوسَى وَمُعَادَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ إِلى اليَمَنِ، وَبَعَثَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِّنْهُمَا على مخلاف. ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَسِّرًا وَلاَ تُعَسّرًا وَبَشِّرًا وَلَا تُنَفَّرًا.
