Pearl of Wisdom
Verily on the day of the battle of 'Uhud, your women were behind the Muslims delivering the last strokes to the wounded from among the polytheists... when Abu Sufyan came and said, 'I esteem Hubal!' So The Prophet (SAWA) told [the Muslims] to say, 'Allah is the Most Sublime and The Most Exalted', so they said, 'Allah is the Most Sublime and the Most Exalted!' Then Abu Sufyan said, 'We have 'Uzza on our side and you do not!' So the Prophet told them to say, 'Allah is our Guardian and the disbelievers have no guardian.'
Ibn Mas'ud al-Durr al-Manthur, v. 2, p. 345

Sermon 116 Rebuking Misers
You spend no wealth in the cause of Him Who gave it, nor do you risk your lives for the sake of Him Who created them. You enjoy honour through Allah among His creatures, but you do not honour Allah among His creatures. You should derive lessons from your occupying the places of those who were before you and from the departure of your nearest brothers.
