A fire once broke out in a house where Zayn al-Abidin the son of Imam Husain was in prostration during a prayer. He did not raise his head until the fire went out.
When asked about this he said:
” The other {Hell} Fire kept my mind busy.”
{Siyar A’lam An-Nubala’ under the biography of ‘Ali the son of Imam Husain = Zayn Al-‘Abidin}
{He was the only surviving son of Imam Husain, the son of ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib {May Allah be well pleased with them all}
The Prophet’s (pbuh) Love for his Ummah.
“I believe in a religion that believes in freedom. Any time I have to accept a religion that won’t let me fight a battle for my people, I say to hell with that religion.”

Bukhari :: Book 6 :: Volume 61 :: Hadith 533
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
A man heard another man reciting (Surat-Al-Ikhlas) ‘Say He is Allah, (the) One.’ (112. 1) repeatedly. The next morning he came to Allah’s Apostle and informed him about it as if he thought that it was not enough to recite. On that Allah’s Apostle said, “By Him in Whose Hand my life is, this Surah is equal to one-third of the Qur’an!”
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri: My brother, Qatada bin An-Nau’man said, “A man performed the night prayer late at night in the lifetime of the Prophet and he read: ‘Say: He is Allah, (the) One,’ (112.1) and read nothing besides that. The next morning a man went to the Prophet ,~ and told him about that . (The Prophet replied the same as (in Hadith 532) above.)
Bukhari :: Book 6 :: Volume 61 :: Hadith 534
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
The Prophet said 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 us has the power to do so, O Allah’s Apostle?” Allah Apostle 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.”
Bukhari :: Book 7 :: Volume 71 :: Hadith 644
Narrated ‘Aisha:
Whenever Allah’s Apostle went to bed, he used to recite Surat-al-Ikhlas, Surat-al-Falaq and Surat-an-Nas and then blow on his palms and pass them over his face and those parts of his body that his hands could reach. And when he fell ill, he used to order me to do like that for him.
3:185. Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception.
6:162. Say: Surely my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are all for Allah, the Lord of the worlds.

If you avoid the major sins which you are forbidden, We will remove from you your small sins and admit you to a noble entrance (into Paradise). [An-Nisa` 4:31]
