Hadith Of The Week

On the authority of Tamim Al-Dari (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The religion is naseehah (sincerity)." We said, "To whom?" He (peace be upon him) said, "To Allah, His Book, His Messenger, and to the leaders of the Muslims and their common folk."
