Hadith (from Sahi Bukhari). ** Narrated Aisha (Razi Allaho Anhu): Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, "(On the Day of Resurrection) any one whose account will be taken will be ruined (i.e go to Hell)." I said, " O Allah's Apostle! May Allah make me be sacrificed for you! Doesn't Allah say: 'Then as for him who will be given his record in his right hand, he surely will receive an easy reckoning.?' " (84:7 and 8) He replied, " That is only the presentation of the accounts; but he whose record is questioned, will be ruined." *** Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (razi Allahu Anhu): The Prophet (SAW) siad to his companions, "Is it difficult for any of you to recite one third of the Qur'an in one night?" This suggestion was difficult for them so they said, "Who among has the power to do so, O Allah's Apostle?" Allah's Apostle (SAW) replied, " 'Allah (the) One, the Self-Sufficient Master Whom all creatures need.' (Surat Al-Ikhlas 112:1-to the end) is equal to one third of the Qur'an." These were copied verbatim from "The Translation of the meanings of Sahih Al-Bukhari " by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan . Mohammed Afroz LAteef
