A few days ago, we shared a post about collection of Hadiths attributed to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ on the specific subject of Rewards. Today we share a collection of Hadiths that hinge on an opposite theme, that is Warnings and Cautions. These warnings and cautions are meant to forewarn the believers so that they do not unknowingly fall into trap of the Evil and commit acts that may harm them not only in this world, for such acts are not at all liked by our Creator, what to talk of the society we live in, but also in the life after death.
Many a man object to such notions for they think there is no life after death and such warnings and cautions are gimmicks of religious men to take them away from merrymaking and enjoying a boundless life. But what if there turns out to be a life which will be a haven of happiness for those who did good and an utter misery for those who mocked the prophets and the religions.
Let us see which are the acts from which Prophet Muhammad ﷺ has warned and cautioned us and try not to go near these, lest we have to pay a very heavy price for these in our next life after death:

May Allāh (سبحانه و تعالى) help us understand Qur'ān and follow the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, which is embodiment of commandments of Allah contained in the Qur'ān. May Allah help us to be like the ones He loves and let our lives be lived helping others and not making others' lives miserable or unlivable. May all our wrong doings, whether intentional or unintentional, be forgiven before the angel of death knocks on our door.
وَمَا عَلَيۡنَاۤ اِلَّا الۡبَلٰغُ الۡمُبِيۡنُ
(36:17) and our duty is no more than to clearly convey the Message.”
That is Our duty is only to convey to you the message that Allah has entrusted us with. Then it is for you to accept it or reject it. We have not been made responsible for making you accept it forcibly, and if you do not accept it, we shall not be seized in consequence of your disbelief, you will yourselves be answerable for your actions on Day of Resurrection.
May Allah forgive me if my posts ever imply a piety far greater than I possess. I am most in need of guidance.
Reading the Qur'ān should be a daily obligation of a Muslim - Reading it with translation will make it meaningful. But reading its Exegesis / Tafsir will make you understand it fully. It will also help the Muslims to have grasp over social issues and their answers discussed in the Qur'an and other matter related to inter faith so that they are able to discuss issues with non-Muslims with authority based on refences from Qur'an.
Note: When we mention God in our posts, we mean One True God, we call Allah in Islam, with no associates. Allah is the Sole Creator of all things, and that Allah is all-powerful and all-knowing. Allah has no offspring, no race, no gender, no body, and is unaffected by the characteristics of human life.
