“I entered upon ‘Aishah and asked her: ‘Did the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) perform Ghusl at the beginning of the night or at the end?’ She said: ‘Both. Sometimes he performed Ghusl at the beginning and sometimes at the end.’ I said: ‘Praise be to Allah who has made the matter flexible.'”
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to Al-Madinah and prayed toward Bait Al-Maqdis for sixteen months, then he was commanded to face towards the Ka’bah.

He turned to me and said: ‘Whoever wants to be independent of means, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will make him independent. Whoever wants to refrain from asking, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will help him to refrain. Whoever wants to be content with his lot, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will suffice him. Whoever asks when he has something worth one Uqiyah, then he is being too demanding. ‘I said: ‘My she-camel Al-Yaqutah is worth more than and Uqiyah,’ so I came back and did not ask him for anything.”
“Ride it.” He said: “It “It is Badanah.” He said: “Ride it even if it is a Badanah.”

“The Prophet said: ‘Were it not for the fact that the people have recently left disbelief, and that I do not have enough funds to enable me to build it. I would have incorporated five cubits of the Hijr in it, and given it a door through which the people could enter, and another door through which they exit.'”
“I cut the hair of the Messenger of Allah at Al-Marwah with the edge of a Bedouin arrow.
“Abdul Malik bin Marwan wrote to Al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf telling him not to go against Ibn Umar with regard to the Hajj. On the day of Arafat, Ibn Umar came to him when the sun had passed its zenith, and I was with him, and shouted near his cotton tent: ‘Where is he?’ Al-Hajjaj came out to him, wearing a wrap dyed with safflower. He said: ‘What is the matter, O Abu Abdur Rahman?’ He said: ‘We have to move on if you want to follow Sunnah.’ He said to him: ‘At this hour?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘I will pour some water over my self (have a bath) then I will come out to you.’ So he waited until he came, then he walked between my father and me, I said: ‘If you want to follow the Sunnah, then deliver a short Khutbah and hasten to stand (in Arafat).’ He started to look at Ibn Umar so that he could hear that, and when Ibn Umar noticed that he said: ‘He is speaking the truth.'”
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘The sanctity of the wives of the Mujahidin to those who stay behind is like the sanctity of their mothers. There is no man who takes on the responsibility of looking after the wife of one of the Mujahidin and betrays him with her but he (the betrayer) will be made to stand before him on the Day of Resurrection and he will take whatever he wants of his (good) deeds. So what do you think?'”
It was narrated that Jabir said: “The Messenger of Allah met me and said: ‘O Jabir, have you got married to a woman since I last saw you?’ I said: ‘Yes, O Messenger of Allah.’ He said: ‘To a virgin or to a previously-married woman?’ I said: ‘To a previously-married woman.’ He said: ‘Why not a virgin, so she could play with you?'”
“I heard Ka’b narrate the Hadith about when he stayed behind and did not join the Messenger of Allah on the expedition to Tabuk. He said: ‘The envoy of the Messenger of Allah came to me and said: “The Messenger of Allah commands you to keep away from your wife.” I said: “Shall I divorce her, or what should I do?” He said: “No, just keep away from her and do not approach her.” And he sent similar instructions to my two companions.

“You know that my father was martyred on the Day of Uhud and he left behind a great deal of debt. I would like the creditors to see you.” He said: “Go and pile up the dates in separate heaps.” I did that, then I called him. When they saw him, it was as if they started to put pressure on me at that time. When he saw what they were doing, he went around the biggest heap three times, then he sat on it then said: “Call your companions (the creditors).” Then he kept on weighing them out for them, until Allah cleared all my father’s debts. I am pleased that Allah cleared my father’s debts without even a single date being missed.
“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, I have a cousin, and I come to him and ask him (for help) but he does not give me anything, and he does not uphold the ties of kinship with me. Then, when he needs me, he comes to me and asks me (for help). I swore that I would not give him anything, nor uphold the ties of kinship with him.’ He commanded me to do that which is better and to offer expiation for my oath.”
“The Prophet said to me: ‘If you swear an oath, and you see something that is better, then do that which is better and offer expiation for your oath.'”
“O Banu Harithah, a calamity has befallen you.” They said: “What is it?” He said: “The Messenger of Allah has forbidden leasing land.” We said: “O Messenger of Allah, what if we lease it in return for some of the grain?” He said, “No.” He said: “We used to lease it in return for straw.” He said: “No.” “We used to lease it in return for what is planted on the banks of a stream that is used for irrigation.” He said: “No. Cultivate it (yourself) or give it to your brother.”
“Rafi’ bin Khadij came to us and said: ‘The Messenger of Allah has forbidden for you Al-Haql. Al-Haql is the third and the fourth. And Al-Muzabanah. Al-Muzabanah is to buy what is at the top of the date-palm trees in return for a certain number of Wasqs of dried dates.'”
“Rafi’ bin Khadij came to us and I was not sure what he meant. He said: ‘The Messenger of Allah has forbidden to you something that used to benefit you, but obedience to the Messenger of Allah is better for you than that which benefits you. The Messenger of Allah has forbidden Al-Haql for you. Al-Haql means share-cropping the land in return for one-third or one-quarter (of the yield). So whoever has land that he does not need, let him give it to his brother (to cultivate it) or let him leave it. And he has forbidden to you Al-Muzabanah. Al-Muzabanah means when a man has a great number of datepalms and says: Take it in return for (a certain number of) Wasqs of dried dates this year.'”
“Rafi’ bin Khadij said: ‘The Messenger of Allah has forbidden something for you that used to be beneficial for us, but obedience to the Messenger of Allah is more beneficial for us. He said: “Whoever has land let him cultivate it, and if he is unable to do so, let him give it to his brother to cultivate.”‘”
“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, we are a people who hunt, and one of us may shoot his arrow but (the game) gets way from him for a night or two. What if he follows its tracks, and finds it dead with his arrow in it?” He said: “If you find the arrow in it, and you do not find any sign of predators, and you know that your arrow killed it, then eat it.” (Sahih)
“We were on a journey and the day of Al-adha came, so we started to by sheep, a Musinnah for two or three Jadh’ahs. A man from Muzainah said to us: ‘We were with the Messenger of Allah on a journey when this came, and we stated to look for sheep, (offering to buy) aMusinnah for two or three Jadh’ahs. Then the Messenger of Allah said: “A Jadh’ah is sufficient for that for which a Thani is sufficient.”

“The Messenger of Allah cursed the women who do tattoos and the women who have them done, Al-Mutanammisat, and the women who have their teeth separated for the sake of beauty, those who change (the creation of Allah.)”

“The people asked ‘Abdullah too many questions one day, and ‘Abdullah said: ‘There was a time when we did not pass so many judgments, but now that time is over. Now Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has decreed that we reach a time when, as you see, (we are asked to pass many judgments). Whoever among you is asked to pass a judgment after this day, let him pass judgment according to what is in the Book of Allah. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah, let him pass judgment according to the way His Prophet passed judgment. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah and concerning which His Prophet did not pass judgment, then let him pass judgment according to the way the righteous passed judgment. If he is faced with a matter that is not mentioned in the Book of Allah, and concerning which His Prophet and the righteous did not pass judgment, then let him strive to work it out, and let him not say ‘I am afraid, I am afraid.’ For that which is lawful is clear and that which is unlawful is clear, and between them are matters which are not as clear. Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt.'”

The Prophet used to say these supplications: “Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min ‘ilmin la yanfa’u, wa qalbin la yakhsha’u, wa du’a’in la yasma’u, wa nafsin la tashba’u. (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from knowledge that is of no benefit, a heart that is not humble, a supplication that is not heard and a soul that is not satisfied.)” Then he would say: ‘Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min ha’ula’il-arba’ (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from these four.)'”
The Messenger of Allah used to say supplication in these words: “Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min ghalabatid-dain, wa ghalabatil-‘aduwwi, wa shamatatil-a’da’. (O Allah, I seek refuge with You from being overwhelmed by debt and from being overpowered by the enemy, and from the enemy rejoicing at my misfortune.)”
“He forbade Ad-Dubba’ (gourds) specifically.”
“When At-Tila’ (thickened grape juice) has been cooked and reduced to one-third, then there is nothing wrong with it.”
I asked Sa’id b. al-Musayyab: What is meant by animal with a slit ear and broken horn ? He replied: Half and more than half.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: A neighbour has the best claim to the house or land of the neighbour.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave the decision that the two adversaries should be made to sit in front of the judge.
I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) while two men who were Ash’ arIs were with me. One of them was on my right and the other on my left side. Bothe of them asked him for employment. The prophet (ﷺ) was silent. He asked : What do you say Abu Musa, or ‘Abd Allah b. Qais (Abu Musa’s name)? I replied: By him who has sent you with truth, they did not inform me of what they had in their hearts, and I did not know that they would ask for an employment. He said : I have the scene before my eyes that he had his toothstick below his lip which receded. He (the prophet) said: We will never or will not put in charge of our work anyone who asks for it. But go, ye, Abu Musa, or ‘Abd Allah b. Qais. He then sent him as a Governor of the Yemen, After him he sent Muadh b. Jabal. When Muadh came to him, he said: come down , and he put a cushion for him. He saw that a man was chained with him. He asked : What is this? He replied: He was a Jew and he accepted Islam. He then converted to his religion, an evil religion. He said: I will not sit until he is killed according to the decision of Allah and his Apostle (ﷺ). He said: Yes, be seated. He said: I will not sit until he is killed according to the decision of Allah and his Apostle (peace be upon him). He said it three times. He then commanded for it and he was killed. Both of them then discussed the question of prayer and vigilance at night. One of them, probably Muadh, said : So far as I am concerned, I sleep and I keep vigilance: I keep vigilance and I sleep: I hope for the same reward for my sleep as for my vigilance.
AbuZubyan said: A woman who had committed adultery was brought to Umar. He gave orders that she should be stoned. Ali passed by just then. He seized her and let her go. Umar was informed of it. He said: Ask Ali to come to me. Ali came to him and said: Commander of the Faithful, you know that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: There are three (people) whose actions are not recorded: A boy till he reaches puberty, a sleeper till he awakes, a lunatic till he is restored to reason. This is an idiot (mad) woman belonging to the family of so and so. Someone might have done this action with her when she suffered the fit of lunacy. Umar said: I do not know. Ali said: I do not know.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: There are three (persons) whose actions are not recorded: a sleeper till he awakes, a boy till he reaches puberty, and a lunatic till he comes to reason. Abu Dawud said: Ibn Juraij has transmitted it from Al-Qasim b. Yazid on the authority of ‘Ali from the Prophet (ﷺ). This version adds: “and an old man who is feeble-minded.”
On his father’s authority, said that his grandfather reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: The blood-wit for a man who makes a covenant is half of the blood-wit for a free man. Abu Dawud said: It has been transmitted by Usamah b. Zaid al-Laithi and ‘Abd al-Rahman b. al-Harith on the authority of ‘Amr b. Suh’aib in similar manner.
He then mentioned a similar tradition described above. This version has: Allah will fill his heart with security and faith. He did not mention the words “Allah will call him”. This version further adds: He who gives up wearing beautiful garments when he is able to do so (out of humility, as Bishr’s version has) will be clothed by Allah with the robe of honour, and he who marries for Allah’s sake will be crowned by Allah with the crown of Kingdom.
The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said to me: when you go to bed while you are in the state of purification, lay your head on your right hand. He then mentioned the rest of the tradition in a similar manner as above.

“When the Prophet (ﷺ) arrived in Al-Madinah, they were paying in advance for fruits. So he said: ‘Whoever pays in advance, then let him pay in advance for known measurements (of dates), and known weights for a specified period of time.'” He said: There are narrations on this topic from Ibn Abi Awfa and ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abza. The Hadith of Ibn ‘Abbas is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) and others. They allow for advanced payments on food, garments and other things in which the limits and description are known. They differed over delay in delivery of animals. Some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) and others thought that delay in delivery of animals is allowed. This is the view of Ash-Shafi’i, Ahmad and Ishaq. Some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) and others, disliked delay in delivery of animals. This is the saying of Sufyan and the people of Al-Kufah. And Abu Al-Minhal’s (a narrator) name is ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Mut’im.
“Go and judge between the people.” So he said: “Perhaps you can excuse me (from that) O Commander of the Believers!” He said: “Why do you have an aversion for that when your father judged?” He said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah saying: ‘Whoever was a judge and judged with justice, it still would have been better for him to have turned away from it completely.’ What do I want after that?'” (Daif).
“An Army from the armies of the Muslims, whose commander was Salman Al-Farisi, besieged one of the Persian castles. They said: ‘O Abu ‘Abdullah! Should we charge them?’ He said: ‘Leave me to call them (to Islam) as I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) call them.’ So Salman went to them and said: ‘I am only a man from among you, a Persian, and you see that the Arabs obey me. If you become Muslims then you will have the likes of what we have, and from you will be required that which is required from us. If you refuse, and keep your religion, then we will leave you to it, and you will give us the Jizyah from your hands while you are submissive.’ He said to them in Persian: ‘And you are other than praiseworthy and if you refuse then we will equally resist you.’ They said: ‘We will not give you the Jizyah, we will fight you instead.’ So they said: ‘O Abu ‘Abdullah! Should we charge them?’ He said: ‘No.'” He said: “So for three days he called them to the same (things), and then he said: ‘Charge them.'” He said: “So we charged them, and we conquered the castle.”
“The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) would seek refuge from the jinn and the (evil) eye of humans, until Al-Mu’awwidhatain were revealed. So when they were revealed he used them and left other than them.”
“The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) came out to us with two books in hand. And he said: ‘Do you know what these two books are?’ We said: ‘No, O Messenger of Allah ! Unless you inform us.’ He said about the one that was in his right hand: ‘This is a book from the Lord of the worlds, in it are the names of the people of Paradise, and the name of their fathers and their tribes. Then there is a summary at the end of them, there being no addition to them nor deduction from them forever.’ Then he said about the one that was in his left: ‘This is a book from the Lord of the worlds, in it are the names of the people of Fire, and the name of their fathers and their tribes. Then there is a summary at the end of them, there being no addition to them nor deduction from them forever.’ The companions said: ‘So why work O Messenger of Allah! Since the matter is already decided (and over)?’ He said: ‘Seek to do what is right and draw nearer, for indeed the inhabitant of Paradise, shall have his work sealed off with the deeds of the people of Paradise, whichever deeds he did. And indeed the inhabitant of Fire, shall have his work sealed off with the deeds of the people of Fire, whichever deeds he did.’ Then the Messenger of Allah motioned with his hands, casting them down and said: ‘Your Lord finished with the slaves, a group in Paradise, and a group in the Blazing Fire.'” Another chain reports a similar narration.
“Shall I not inform you of the greatest of the major sins?” They said: “Of course O Messenger of Allah(s.a.w)!” He said: “Shirk with Allah disobeying parents, and false testimony.” Or: “False speech” He said: “So the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) would not stop saying it until we said ( to ourselves): ‘I wish he would be quiet. “
“The best of people are my generation, then those who follow them,then those who follow them, then those who follow them.”(He(s.a.w)said that) three times. “Then, after them a people will come who increase in fatness, loving fatness, giving testimony before they are asked for it.”
“When ‘Until the white (light) thread of dawn appears distinct to you from the black thread (of night)’ was revealed, the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me: ‘That only refers to the whiteness of the day from the blackness of the night.'”
“On the Day of Uhud, the incisors of the Prophet (ﷺ) were broken, and he had a facial wound in the area of the forehead, such that the blood flowed over his face.

Ibn Abbas was asked by a man about this Ayah: O you who believe! Verity, among your wives and your children there are enemies for you; therefore beware of them! He said: “These are men who submitted (to Islam) in Makkah, and they wanted to come to the Prophet but their wives and children refused to allow them to come to the Messenger of Allah. So when they came to the Messenger of Allah, they saw that the people had gained such understanding in the religion that they wanted to punish them (their families). So Allah revealed the Ayah: O you who believe! Verily, among your wives and your children there are enemies for you; therefore beware of them!”
He came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: “O Messenger of Allah, teach me something that I may say when I go to my bed.” So he said: “Recite: Say: ‘O you disbelievers’ for verily it is a disavowal of Shirk.” Shu`bah said: “Sometimes he would say: ‘One time’ and sometime he would not say it.” (Another chain) from Farwah bin Nawfal, from his father: “That he came to the Prophet (ﷺ)” then he mentioned similar in meaning. And this is more correct. And Zubair reported this hadith from Ishaq, from Farwah bin Nawfal, from his father from the Prophet (ﷺ), with similar wording. This is more appropriate and more correct than the narration of Shu`bah. The companions of Abu Ishaq were confused in the narration of this hadith. This hadith has been reported through routes other than this. `Abdur-Rahman is the brother of Farwah bin Nawfal.
“The Prophet would not sleep until he reached Tanzil as-Sajdah and Tabarak.”

So forgive me what I have done before and after, and that which I have hidden and that which I have done openly. You are my Deity, no has the right to be worshiped but You (Allāhumma lakal-ḥamd, anta nūrus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wa lakal-ḥamd, anta qayyāmus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wa lakal-ḥamd, anta rabbus-samāwāti wal-arḍ, wa man fīhinn, antal-ḥaqq, wa wa`dukal-ḥaqq, wa liqā’uka ḥaqq, wal-jannatu ḥaqq, wan-nāru ḥaqq, was-sā`atu ḥaqq.

Fatimah came to the Prophet (ﷺ), asking him for a servant. So he (ﷺ) said to her: “Say: ‘O Allah, Lord of the Seven Heavens and the Lord of the Magnificent Throne, our Lord, and the Lord of everything, Revealer of the Tawrah, the Injil, and the Quran, Splitter of the seed-grain and the date-stone, I seek refuge in You from the evil of everything that You are holding by the forelock, You are the First, for there is nothing above You, and You are the Last, for there is nothing after you. And you are az-Zahir, for there is nothing above you. And you are Al-Batin, for there is nothing below You. Relieve me from debt, and enrich me from poverty (Allāhumma rabbas samāwātis-sab`i wa rabbal-`arshil-`aẓīm, rabbana, wa rabba kulli shai’in, munzilat-Tawrāti wal-Injīli wal-Qur’ān, fāliqal-habbi wan-nawā, a`ūdhu bika min sharri kulli shai’in anta ākhidhun bināṣiyatihi, antal-awwalu falaisa qablaka shai’un, wa antal-ākhiru falaisa ba`daka shai’un, wa antaẓ-ẓāhiru falaisa fawqaka shai’un, wa antal-bāṭinu falaisa dūnaka shai’un, iqḍi `anni-daina wa aghnini minal-faqr).”

“A Bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, my father used to uphold the ties of kinship, and so and so forth, where is he?’ He said: ‘In the Fire.’ It was as if he found that difficult to bear. Then he said: ‘O Messenger of Allah. Where is your father?’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whenever you pass by the grave of an idolater, give him the tidings of Hell-fire.’ The Bedouin later became Muslim, and he said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave me a difficult task. I never passed the grave of an idolater but I gave him the tidings of Hell-fire.’”
He said: “I said to her: ‘Tell me your Hadith.’ She said: ‘I got Khul’ from my husband, then I came to ‘Uthman and asked him: “What waiting period do I have to observe?” He said: “You do not have to observe any waiting period, unless you had intercourse with him recently, in which case you should stay with him until you have menstruated.” In that he was following the ruling of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) concerning Maryam Maghaliyyah, who was married to Thabit bin Qais and she got Khul’ from him.’ “
“The divorce of a slave woman is twice, and her (waiting) period is two menstrual cycles.” Abu ‘Asim said: “I mentioned this to Muzahir and said: ‘Tell me what you told Ibn Juraij.’ So he told me, narrating from Qasim from ‘Aishah, that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘The divorce of a slave woman is twice, and her (waiting) period is two menstrual cycles.”‘
