"Religion is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded." -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 2, Number 38] 

"(Of the) major sins are: to ascribe partners to Allah, disobey parents, murder someone, and to take a false oath (intentionally)" -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Al-Bukhari].

"The believers who show the most perfect Faith are those who have the best behaviour, and the best of you are those who are the best to their wives". -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [At-Tirmidhi]. 

"No one of you becomes a true believer until he likes for his brother what he likes for himself" -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) would hear the crying of a child in the company of his mother during payer, and he would then recite only a short portion of the Quran (to end the prayer and let the mother comfort her child)." -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Sahih Muslim, Hadith 220]

Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) said: "He who has, in his heart, an ant's weight of arrogance will not enter Jannah (Paradise).'' Someone said: "A man likes to wear beautiful clothes and shoes?'' Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "Allah is Beautiful, He loves beauty. Arrogance means ridiculing and rejecting the Truth and despising people.'' [Muslim].

A man broke his fast (intentionally) during Ramadan. The Messenger of Allah (saws) commanded him to emancipate a slave or fast for two months, or feed sixty poor men. He said, "I cannot provide." The Apostle said, "Sit down." Thereafter, a huge basket of dates was brought to the Messenger of Allah. He said, "Take this and give it as charity." He said, "O Messenger of Allah, there is no one poorer than I." 
The Messenger of Allah thereupon laughed so that his canine teeth became visible and said, "Eat it yourself." -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Sunan Abu Dawood Vol. 2, #2386].

When the Prophet Muhammad (Peace & Blessings Be Upon Him) would have a meal with Aisha (May Allah be pleased with her), they would both eat from the same plate and drink from the same cup as each other. What the Prophet (Peace & Blessings Be Upon Him) would do is, turn the cup where Aisha's lip marks were left and would drink from that side of the cup. He would also make eye contact with her and then drink. [Sahih Al-Bukhari]

Awf b. Malik al-Ashja' (note: he was a rather robust person) said: I came to the Apostle of Allah at the expedition to Tabuk when he was in a SMALL skin tent. I gave him a salutation and he returned it, saying: Come in. I asked: The whole of me, Apostle of Allah? He replied: The whole of you. So I entered. [Sunan Abu Dawood, Vol. 3, #4982] 

Anas (RA) said: A man came to the Prophet and said: Apostle of Allah! give me a mount. The Prophet said: We shall give you a she-camel's (female camel) child to ride on. He said: What shall I do with a she-camel's child? The Prophet (pbuh) replied: Do any others than she-camels give birth to camels? [Sunan Abu Dawood, Vol. 3, #4980] (in other words, aren't all camels children of a she camel?)

Anas ibn Malik (RA) said: "I saw the Prophet (pbuh), making for her (Safiya RA) a kind of cushion with his cloak behind him (on his camel). He then sat beside his camel and put his knee for Safiya to put her foot on, in order to ride (on the camel)." [Sahih Al-Bukhari]

"Kindness is a mark of faith, and whoever is not kind has no faith." -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) (Muslim)

`Âishah (RA) said: “Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) never once struck a servant of his nor a woman, nor did he strike anyone with his hand.” [Sahîh Muslim (2328)]

“If a Muslim plants a tree or sows seeds, and then a bird, or a person or an animal eats from it, it is regarded as a charitable gift (sadaqah) for him.” (Bukhari)

"He is not one of us who shows no mercy to younger ones and does not acknowledge the honour due to our elders". -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [At-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud].

Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said to Ashaj Abdul-Qais (May Allah be pleased with him),"You possess two qualities that Allah loves. These are clemency and tolerance.'' -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Muslim].

"Do you know what is better than charity and fasting and prayer? It is keeping peace and good relations between people, as quarrels and bad feelings destroy mankind." -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Muslim & Bukhari]

“Allah will not be merciful to those who are not merciful to the people.” -Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) [Sahih Bukhari 6941, Sahih Muslim 2319]
