He said: He had nothing. It was I who managed it on his behalf since the day Allah made him Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) until he died. When a Muslim man came to him and he found him naked, he ordered me (to clothe him). I would go, borrow (some money), and purchase a cloak for him. I would then clothe him and feed him. A man from the polytheists met me and said: I am well off, Bilal. Do not borrow money from anyone except me. So I did accordingly. One day when I performed ablution and stood up to make call to prayer, the same polytheist came along with a body of merchants. When he saw me, he said: O Abyssinian. I said: I am at your service. He met me with unpleasant looks and said harsh words to me. He asked me: Do you know how many days remain in the completion of this month? I replied: The time is near. He said: Only four days remain in the completion of this month. I shall then take that which is due from you (i.e. loan), and then shall return you to tend the sheep as you did before. I began to think in my mind what people think in their minds (on such occasions). When I offered the night prayer, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) returned to his family. I sought permission from him and he gave me permission. I said: Messenger of Allah, may my parents be sacrificed for you, the polytheist from whom I used to borrow money said to me such-and-such. Neither you nor I have anything to pay him for me, and he will disgrace me. So give me permission to run away to some of those tribes who have recently embraced Islam until Allah gives His Apostle (ﷺ) something with which he can pay (the debt) for me. So I came out and reached my house. I placed my sword, waterskin (or sheath), shoes and shield near my head. When dawn broke, I intended to be on my way. All of a sudden I saw a man running towards me and calling: Bilal, return to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). So I went till I reached him. I found four mounts kneeling on the ground with loads on them. I sought permission. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: Be glad, Allah has made arrangements for the payment (of your debt). He then asked: Have you not seen the four mounts kneeling on the ground? I replied: Yes. He said: You may have these mounts and what they have on them. There are clothes and food on them, presented to me by the ruler of Fadak. Take them away and pay off your debt. I did so. He then mentioned the rest of the tradition. I then went to the mosque and found that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was sitting there. I greeted him. He asked: What benefit did you have from your property? I replied: Allah Most High paid everything which was due from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Nothing remains now. He asked: Did anything remain (from that property)? I said: Yes. He said: Look, if you can give me some comfort from it, for I shall not visit any member of my family until you give me some comfort from it. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) offered the night prayer, he called me and said: What is the position of that which you had with you (i.e. property)? I said: I still have it, no one came to me. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) passed the night in the mosque. He then narrated the rest of the tradition. Next day when he offered the night prayer, he called me and asked: What is the position of that which you had (i.e. the rest of the property)? I replied: Allah has given you comfort from it, Messenger of Allah. He said: Allah is Most Great, and praised Allah, fearing lest he should die while it was with him. I then followed him until he came to his wives and greeted each one of them and finally he came to his place where he had to pass the night. This is all for which you asked me. *Source: [ParallelQuran](https://parallelquran.com/hadith/sunan-abi-dawud-3055/)* --- ## Hadith #3593 **Book:** The Office of the Judge (Kitab Al-Aqdiyah) | **Narrator(s):** Abdullah bin Wahb عبد الله بن وهب بن مسلم القرشي, Abu Hurairah, Kathir bin Zayd al-'Aslmy كثير بن زيد الأسلمي, Mrwan bin Muhammad bin Hsan مروان بن محمد بن حسان الأسدي, Sulaiman bin Bilal al-Taymi سليمان بن بلال التيمي, Sulaiman bin Da'ud bin Da'ud سليمان بن داود بن داود بن علي | **Grade:** Da'if Mu’adh bin Jabal said that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent him to the Yemen… He then narrated the rest of the tradition to the same effect. *Source: [ParallelQuran](https://parallelquran.com/hadith/sunan-abi-dawud-3593/)* --- ## Hadith #3830 **Book:** Foods (Kitab Al-At'imah) | **Narrator(s):** Aisha bint Abi Bakr, Hisham bin 'Urwa هشام بن عروة, Mrwan bin Muhammad bin Hsan مروان بن محمد بن حسان الأسدي, Sulaiman bin Bilal al-Taymi سليمان بن بلال التيمي, Urwa ibn al-Zubayr عروة بن الزبير | **Grade:** Da'if I saw that the Prophet (ﷺ) took a piece of bread of barley and put a date on it and said: This is the condiment of this. *Source: [ParallelQuran](https://parallelquran.com/hadith/sunan-abi-dawud-3830/)* --- ## Hadith #4565 **Book:** Types of Blood-Wit (Kitab Al-Diyat) | **Narrator(s):** al-Ala' bin al-Harith bin 'Abdul Warith العلاء بن الحارث بن عبد الوارث, al-Hythm bin Hameed al-Ghsany الهيثم بن حميد الغساني مولاهم أبو أحمد, Amr bin Shu'aib bin Muhammad عمرو بن شعيب بن محمد السهمي, Mhmwd bin Khalid محمود بن خالد, Mrwan bin Muhammad bin Hsan مروان بن محمد بن حسان الأسدي, Shu'aib bin Muhammad bin 'Abdullah شعيب بن محمد بن عبد الله بن عمرو | **Grade:** Hasan On his father’s authority, said that his grandfather reported the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Blood-wit for what resembles intentional murder is to be made as severe as that for intentional murder, but the culprit is not to be killed.
