Answer
1. Unable to locate.
2. The correct wording of the Hadith is ‘Bismillaahi wa barakatillaah’ which is recorded in al-Mustadrak of Imaam al-Haakim (Hadith7083). Hafiz al-Dhahabiy [ra] has verified this Hadith to be authentic. (Ibid).
3. We were unable to locate. However, we have come across the following: Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra [radhiallaahu anhu] reports that Nabi [sallallaahu alayhi wasallam] said, ‘The fire (of hell) is surrounded by desires and paradise is surrounded by hardships.’ (Bukhari Hadith6487)
