Eating meat

Q: Some sisters were having a conversation on the eating of meat. One sister commented that there is a hadeeth where the Prophet Muhammed sallallahu alahi wa salaam says: "Do not let your stomach become a graveyard for animals." I have never heard of this hadeeth nor seen it anywhere. I once saw that Ali radhiyallahu anhu said that, otherwise no one can give clear proof.

Reciting Surah Zumar and Surah Bani Israeel before sleeping

Q: ﻗَﺎﻟَﺖْ ﻋَﺎﺋِﺸَﺔُ ﺭﺿﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻬﺎ ﻛَﺎﻥَ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺒِﻰُّ - ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ - ﻻَ ﻳَﻨَﺎﻡُ ﺣَﺘَّﻰ ﻳَﻘْﺮَﺃَ ﺍﻟﺰُّﻣَﺮَ ﻭَﺑَﻨِﻰ ﺇِﺳْﺮَﺍﺋِﻴﻞَ

Aisha (radhiyallahu anha) said, “Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) wouldn’t go to sleep until he read Az-Zumar and Bani Isra’il. (Collected by At-Tirmithi (3405), Ibn Khuzaymah (1/126/2) Al-Hakim (2/434) Ahmed (2/68 /122) At-Tirmithi graded this hadeeth as being Hasan Ghareeb. And Shaykh Al-Albani said “The men in the isnad are trustworthy [ Silsilahtus Saheehah 641 ]

Is it authentic?

Verification of Ahaadith

Q: Please verify these two Hadith:

1. I'm Arab but Arab is not in me and I'm not Hind but Hind is in me.

2. I feel a cool breeze coming from Hind.

Did Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) really say that? If yes then please tell me the tafseer but not in Arabic.

Verification of a Hadith

Q: Many years ago, I read a book in which a hadith was cited wherein a wealthy Sahabi (radi'Allahu anhu) uttered a criticism and complaint about the existence in the midst of other Sahaba (radi'Allahu anhum) who were poor and therefore perceived as being an unduly burden on the community. As I recall - and I ask Allah's forgivness if I am mistaken in my recollection - Nabi sal'Allahu alayhi wa sallam, did not take kindly to the attitude of the Sahabi (radi'Allahu anhu) and rebuked him by saying words to the effect that it was only because of the existence of such poor people, that Allah's Mercy reached the community of believers at all.

Please confirm:

1. Whether such a hadith exists; and if does,

2. Whether it is reliable and authentic, and

3. If it is, provide me with a copy of the Hadith in Arabic together with a parallel english language translation?

Making tashkeel

Q: The tashkeel that the tabligh jamaat do, is it Sunnat? One jamaat brother has mentioned this that Nabi (Sallalaho Alaihi Wasallam) would make tashkeel and Sahaabah would stand up.
