Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab reported that Abu Hurayra said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah, (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), say, 'Allah divided mercy into a hundred parts. He kept back ninety-nine parts with Himself and left one part on the earth. It is from this part that creatures show mercy to one another so that an animal lifts its hoof from its young fearing to hurt them.'" (Bukhari No. 5654)
