“I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) wiping over the Khuff and the Khimar.” A head covering not limited to the common usage of “turban” as is clear from the first narration.
“I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wiping over the Khuff.”
“I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wiping over the Khimar and Khuff.”
“When the call for the prayer is given, the Shaitan takes to his heels, passing wind loudly so that he will not hear the call to prayer. When the call to prayer is finished, he comes back. And when the Iqamah is said, he again takes to his heels, and after it is completed, he returns again to interfere between the (praying) person and his heart, saying to him: ‘Remember such and such, remember such and such,’ – things that he had not remembered – until he does not know how many (Rak’ahs) he has prayed.”
“If the people knew what (virtue) there is in the call to prayer and the first row, and they had no other way but to draw lots concerning them, they would draw lots. If they knew what (virtue) there is in coming early for the prayer, they would compete in doing so. And if they knew what (virtue) there is in ‘Atamah and Subh prayer, they would come even if they had to crawl.”
“Whoever would like to meet Allah tomorrow as a Muslim, let him regularly attend these five (daily) prayers whenever the call for them is given (that in the mosques), for Allah prescribed for His Prophet the ways of guidance, and they (the prayers) are part of those ways of guidance. I do not think that there is anyone among you who does not have a place where he prays in his house. But if you were to pray in your houses and forsake the Masjids, you would be forsaking the Sunnah of your Prophet, and if you were to forsake the Sunnah of your Prophet you would go astray. There is no Muslim slave who performs Wudu and does it well, then walks to the prayer, but Allah will record one Hasanah (good deed) for each step he takes, or raise’ him one level by it or erase one sin from him. I remember how we used to take short steps, and I remember (a time) when no one stayed behind from the prayer except a hypocrite whose hypocrisy was well known. And I have seen a man coming Supported by two others until he would be made to stand in the row.”
“I heard Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, say: ‘I heard Hisham bin Hakim bin Hizam reciting Surat Al-Furqan, in a way that I had not been taught, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had taught me. I was about to interrupt him (in his prayer), but I left him alone until he had finished. Then I grabbed him by his garment and brought him to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, I heard this man reciting Surat Al-Furqan in a way that you did not teach me.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: ‘Recite.’ So he recited it in the way that I had heard him recite. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘It was revealed like this.’ Then he said to me: ‘Recite.’ So I recited it and he said: ‘It was revealed like this. This Quran has been revealed in seven different modes, so recite as much of the Quran as may be easy for you.'”
“I heard Abu Hurairah say: ‘I came back (from a journey) with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he heard a man reciting ‘Say: He is Allah, (the) One, Allah-us-Samad (the Self-Sufficient Master). He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none equal or comparable unto Him.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘It is guaranteed.’ We asked him: ‘What, O Messenger of Allah?’ He said: ‘Paradise.'”
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “When the Imam says: ‘Sami Allahu liman hamidah (Allah hears the one who praises Him),’ then say: ‘Rabbana wa lakal-hamd,’ (Our Lord, and to You be the praise).’ Whoever says that and it coincides with the angels saying it, his previous sins will be forgiven.”
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to supplicate in prayer when he said: “Sami’ Allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal-hamd (Allah hears those who praise Him; O our Lord, and to You be praise),”then he said while standing, before he prostrated: “O Allah, save Al-Walid bin Al-Walid and Salamah bin Hisham and ‘Ayyshah bin Abi Rabi’ah and those who are weak and oppressed in Makkah. O Allah, intensify Your punishment in Mudar and give them years (of famine) like the years of Yusuf.” Then he would say: “Allah is Most Great” and then he prostrated. The people of Mudar and their environs were opposed to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at the time.
“Abdullah bin Tawus prayed beside me at Mina, in Masjid Al-Khaif, and when he made the first prostration he raised his head and raised his hands up to his face. I found that strange and I said to Wuhaib bin Khalid: “This man does something that I have never seen anyone do.” Wuhaib said to him: ‘You do something that I have never seen anyone do.’ Abdullah bin Tawus said: ‘I saw my father do it, and my father said: “I saw Ibn ‘Abbas do it and ‘Abullah bin Abbas said: ‘I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) doing it.'”
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to us in the Majlis of Sa’d bin ‘Ubadah and Bashir bin Sa’d said to him: ‘Allah has commanded us to send Salah upon you, O Messenger of Allah; so how should we send salah upon you?’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remained silent until we wished that he had not asked him. Then he said: ‘Say: ‘Alahumma salli ‘ala Muhammad wa ‘ala ali Muhammad, kama sallaita ‘ala Ibrahima wa barik ‘ala Muhammad kama barakta ‘ala ali Ibrahim fil-‘alamin, innaka hamidun majid (O Allah, send salah upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent salah upon the family of Ibrahim, and send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad as You sent blessings upon the family of Ibrahim among the nations. You are indeed Worthy of praise, Full of glory.)” And the salam is as you know.'”
“It was said to the Prophet (ﷺ): We have been commanded to send salah and salams upon you. We know how to send salams, but how should we send salah?’ He said: Say: ‘Alahumma salli ‘ala Muhammad wa ‘ala ali Muhammad, kama sallaita ‘ala Ibrahima wa barik ‘ala Muhammad kama barakta ‘ala ali Ibrahim fil-‘alamin, innaka hamidun majid (O Allah, send salah upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent salah upon the family of Ibrahim).'”
“We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), we know about sending salams upon you, but how should we send salah upon you?’ He said: “Say: ‘Alahumma salli ‘ala Muhammad wa ‘ala ali Muhammad, kama sallaita ‘ala Ibrahima wa barik ‘ala Muhammad kama barakta ‘ala ali Ibrahim fil-‘alamin, innaka hamidun majid (O Allah, send salah upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent salah upon the family of Ibrahim, and send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad as You sent blessings upon the family of Ibrahim among the nations. You are indeed Worthy of praise, Full of glory.)'” (One of the narrators) Ibn Abi Laila said: “We used to say: ‘And also upon us.'” Abu Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasa’I) said: It was narrated from his book, and this is a mistake.
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said the salam then he performed two prostrations of forgetfulness while he was still sitting, then he said the salam.” He said: He mentioned it in the hadith of Dhul-Yadain.
“My father used to say following every prayer: ‘Allahumma inni a-udhu bika min al-kufri wal-faqri wa ‘adhab al-qabr. ( O Allah, I seek refuge with You from Kufr, poverty, and the torment of the grave)’ and I used to say them (these words). My father said: ‘O my son, from whom did you learn this?’ I said: ‘From you. He said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say them following the prayer.'”
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) set out from Makkah to Al-Madinah, fearing nothing but the Lord of the worlds, and praying two rak’ahs.
“When you see a funeral, stand up until it has passed you, or (the body) is placed (in the grave).”
“The Janazah of a boy and a woman were brought. The boy was placed closer to the people and the woman was placed beyond him, and the funeral prayer was offered for them. Among the people were Abu Saeed Al-Khudri, Ibn Abbas, Abu Qatadah and Abu Hurairah. I asked them about that and they said: ‘(It is) Sunnah.”‘
“Messenger of Allah said: “The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Take Shaur, for in Sahur there is blessing.”‘ ‘Ubaidullah bin Saeed narrated it in Mawquaf from.
“Take Sahur.” ‘Ubaidullah said: “I do not know how he said it.”
That the Messenger of Allah was treated by means of cupping when he was in Ihram.
“Ibn ‘Abbas, Abu Hurairah and I were together, and Ibn ‘Abbas said: ‘If a woman gives birth after her husband dies, her ‘Iddah is the longer of the two periods.'” Abu Salamah said: “We sent Kuraib to Umm Salamah to ask her about that. He came to us and told us from her that the husband of Subai’ah died and she gave birth a few days after her husband died, and the Messenger of Allah told her to get married.”
“The Prophet passed by a dead sheep and said: ‘Why don’t you make use of its skin’?”
“A sheep of ours died, and we tanned its skin, and continued to make Nabidh in it until it wore out.”
The Messenger of Allah forbade plucking gray hairs.
A similar report was narrated from Abu Hurairah, from the Messenger of Allah .
The Messenger of Allah threw it away, and the people threw their rings away too. Then he took a ring of silver and he used to seal letters with it, but he did not wear it.
“When it was said to Zaid bin Arqam: ‘Tell us what you heard from the Messenger of Allah commanded us to say: ‘Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min al-‘ajzi wal-kasali, wal-bukhli, wal-jubni, wal-harami, wa ‘adhabil-qabri. Allahumma at nafsi taqwaha, wa zakkaha anta khairu min zakkaha, anta waliyyuha wa mawlaha. Allahumma inni a’udhu bika min nafsin la tashba’u wa min qalbin la yakhsha’u wa min ‘ilmin la yanfa’u wa du’a’in la yustajab (O Allah, I seek refuge in You from incapacity, laziness, miserliness, cowardice, old age, the torment of the grave. O Allah, make my soul obedient and purify it, for You are the best One to purify it, You are its Guardian and Lord. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from a soul that is not satisfied, a heart that is not humble, knowledge that is of no benefit and a supplication that is not answered.)'”
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) restored his daughter Zaynab to Abul’As on the basis of the previous marriage, and he did not do anything afresh. Muhammad b. ‘Amr said in his version: After six years. Al-Hasan b. ‘Ali said: After two years.
I embraced Islam while I had eight wives. So I mentioned it to the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (said) said: Select four of them. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been narrated to us by Ahmad b. Ibrahim from Hushaim. He said: Qais b. al-Harith instead of al-Harith b. Qais. Ahmad b. Ibrahim said: This is correct, i.e. Qais b. al-Harith.
Zayd ibn Harithah went out to Mecca and brought the daughter of Hamzah with him. Then Ja’far said: I shall take her; I have more right to her; she is my uncle’s daughter and her maternal aunt is my wife; the maternal aunt is like mother. Ali said: I am more entitled to take her. She is my uncle’s daughter. The daughter of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is my wife, and she has more right to her. Zayd said: I have more right to her. I went out and journeyed to her, and brought her with me. The Prophet (ﷺ) came out. The narrator mentioned the rest of the tradition. He (i.e. the Prophet) said: As for the girl, I decided in favour of Ja’far. She will live with her maternal aunt. The maternal aunt is like mother.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had himself cupped when he was fasting and wearing ihram (pilgrim garb).
Ibn ‘Abbas said “When the verse “If there are twenty amongst you patient and persevering, they will vanquish two hundred” was revealed. It was heavy and troublesome for Muslims when Allaah prescribed for them that one (fighting Muslim) should not fly from ten (fighting Non-Muslims). Then a light commandment was revealed saying “For the present Allaah hath lightened your (task).” The narrator Abu Tawbah recited the verse to “they will vanquish two hundred.” When Allaah lightened the number, patient and perseverance also decreased according to the number lightened from them.”
Yazid ibn Hurmuz said that when Najdah al-Haruri performed hajj during the rule of Ibn az-Zubayr, he sent someone to Ibn Abbas to ask him about the portion of the relatives (in the fifth). He asked: For whom do you think? Ibn Abbas replied: For the relatives of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) divided it among them. Umar presented it to us but we found it less than our right. We, therefore returned it to him and refused to accept it.
I heard ‘Ali say: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) assigned me the fifth (of the booty). I spent it on its beneficiaries during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr and of ‘Umar. Some property was brought to him (‘Umar) and he called me and said: Take it. I said: I dod not want it. He said: Take it ; you have right to it. I said: We do not need it. So he deposited in the government treasury.

He said: I bought them for ten thousand (dirhams). Abdullah said: Appoint a man who may adjudicate between me and you. Al-Ash’ath said: (I appoint) you between me and yourself. Abdullah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: If both parties in a business transaction differ (on the price of an article), and they have witness between them, the statement of the owner of the article will be accepted (as correct) or they may annul the transaction.
Make nabidh (drink) from each separately. He (the narrator Yahya) said: Abu Salamah bin ‘Abd al-Rahman narrated to me this tradition on the authority of Abu Qatadah from the Prophet (ﷺ)
The apostle of Allah (ﷺ) forbade drinking from the broken place (of a cup) and blowing into a drink.
I had some sheep at Uhud, and they began to die. I then entered upon Maymunah, wife of the Prophet (ﷺ), and mentioned it to her. Maymunah said to me: If you took their skins and made use of them, (that would be better for you). She asked: Is that lawful? She replied, Yes. Some people of the Quraysh passed by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) dragging a sheep of theirs as big as an ass. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to them: Would that you took its skin. They said: It died a natural death. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Water and leaves of the mimosa flava purify it.
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 Prophet (ﷺ) addressed me as: O you with the two ears.
there is no god but Allah alone Who has no partner, to whom dominion belongs, to whom praise is due, and who has power over everything (omnipotent). Glory be to Allah, and praise be to Allah, and there is no god but Allah, and then he prays: O my Lord, forgive me. Abu Dawud said : Al-Walid’s version has; and he prays, his prayer will be answered. If he gets up, performs ablution, and prays, his prayer will be accepted.
Ilyas ibn Dighfal said: I saw AbuNadrah kissing on the cheek of al-Hasan.
I went in with AbuBakr when he had newly come to Medina and he found his daughter Aisha lying down afflicted with fever. AbuBakr went to her, and saying: How are you, girlie? kissed her on the cheek.
He should give it a warning three times. If it appears to him after that, he should kill it, for it is a devil.
Allah’s Messenger was asked about performing Wudu for camel meat. He said: “Perform Wudu for it.” He Was asked about Wudu after eating goat meat. So he said: “Do not perform Wudu for it.”
“The Prophet wiped over the Khuff and the Khimar.”
“I asked the Prophet about Al-Madhi. He said: “For Al-Madhi is Wudu, and for AI-Mani is Ghusl.”
“Allah’s Messenger would recite the Qur’an in all conditions, as long as he was not Junub.”
“Allah’s Messenger would say each phrase of the call (for prayer) two times, for the Adhan and the Iqamah.”
“Allah’s Messenger said : ‘Do not say the Tathwib for any prayer except the Fajr prayer.'” There is something on this topic from Abu Mahdhurah. Abu `Eisa said: We do not know of the Hadith of Bilal except as a narration of Abu Isra’il Al-Mula’i. Abu Isra’il did not hear this Hadith from Al-Hakam bin `Utaibah. He said: He only reported it from Al-Hasan bin `Umarah, from Al-Hakam bin `Utaibah. Abu Isra’il’s name is [Isma`il bin Abi Ishaq, and he is not strong according to the people of Hadith. The people of knowledge have differed over the interpretation of At-Tathwib. Some of them say that At-Tathwib is when one says “As-Salatu Khairummin An-Nawm, (prayer is better than sleep)” for the Adhan of Fajr. This is the saying of Ibn Al-Mubarak and Ahmad. Ishaq said something different about At-Tathwib, he said: ” is something that the people started after the Prophet; when the Mu’adh-dhin calls the Adhan and the people are slow in coming, so between the Adhan and the Iqamah he says: ‘Qad Qamatis-Salat, Hayya `Alasalat, Hayya `AlalFalah. (Prayer is ready, come to prayer, come to success.)” This Tathwib, which Ishaq mentioned, is the one that the people of knowledge dislike, which they innovated after the Prophet. But Ibn Al-Mubarak and Ahmad explained that At-Tathwib is when the Mu’adh-dhin says: “As-Salatu Khairum minan-Nawm, (prayer is better than sleep)” for the Adhan of Fajr. And this is the correct saying, and it is called At-Tathawwub as well, and this is the one chosen by the people of knowledge, and it is their opinion. It has been reported from `Abdullah bin `Umar that he would say: “As-Salatu Khairum-minan-Nawm, (prayer is better than sleep)” for Fajr. It has been reported from Mujahid that he said: “I entered a Masjid with `Abdullah bin `Umar in which the Adhan was called, and we wanted to pray in it. Then the Mu’adh-dhin said the Tathwib. So `Abdullah bin `Umar left the Masjid and said: ‘Let us leave the place of this innovator’ And he did not pray in it.” `Abdullah only disliked the Tathwib that the people invented later on.
“The Salat of Allah’s Messenger (was such that) when he bowed, and when he raised his head from bowing, and when he prostrated, and when he raised his head from prostration it (all) was nearly the same.”
“Al-Mughirah bin Shu’bah led us in Salat, and he continued after the two Rak’ah, so the people said: ‘Subhan Allah’ and he said: ‘Subhan Allah’ to them. When he finished his Salat he said the Taslim then performed two prostrations of As-Sahw while he was sitting. Then he narrated to them that Allah’s Messenger did the same with them as he had done.”
“I said to Anas bin Malik: ‘Would Allah’s Messenger (S) perform Salat wearing his sandals?’ He said: ‘Yes.'”
“No one informed that they saw Allah’s Messenger praying Ad-Duha except Umm Hani. She narrated that Allah’s Messenger entered her house on the Day of the Conquest of Makkah. He performed Ghusl and performed eight voluntary Rak’ah such that she had not ever seen him pray any Salat lighter than them, but that he completed the bowing and prostrations.”
“We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! We have learned about saying the Salam to you, but how about As-Salat upon you?’ He said: ‘Say: (Allahumma salli ala Muhammadin Wa Ala ali Muhammadin kama sallaita Ala Ibrahim, Innaka hamidan MAjid, Wa barik Ala Muhammadin wa Ala ali Muhammadin kamma barakta Ala Ibrahim Innaka Hamidan Majid)” O Allah! Send Salat upon Muhammad and upon Muhammad’s family just as You have sent Salat upon Ibrahim, indeed You are the Praise and Majestic. And send blessings upon Muhammad and Muhammad’s family just as You have sent blessing upon Ibrahim, indeed You are the Praised and Majestic.’Mahmud said: “Abu Usamah said: Za’idah added something for me, from Al-Amash, from Al-Hakam, from Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Laila, that he said: “We would say ‘And upon us along with them.'”
Allah’s Messenger said: “It is a duty for the Muslims, that they perform Ghusl on Friday, and that each of them wear some of his family’s perfume. If he does not find any, then water is a perfume for him.”
“I prayed with the Prophet both, while a resident and while traveling. So I prayed four for Zuhr with him as a resident, and two Rak’ah after it. I prayed two Rak’ah for Zuhr with him while traveling and two Rak’ah after it, and two Rak’ah for Asr, and he did not pray anything after it. Maghrib while a resident and traveling is the same; three Rak’ah, it is not decreased as a resident nor while traveling. It is Witr of the day, and after it are two Rak’ah.”
the Messenger of Allah said: “When one of you comes to the Salat and (finds) the Imam is in a position, then do as the Imam is doing.”

“We were with the Messenger of Allah on a journey when he saw a man fall from his camel, his neck was broken and he died, and he was a Muhrim. So the Messenger of Allah said: ‘Wash him with water and Sidr, and shroud him in his garments, and do not cover his head. For indeed he will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment saying the Talbiyah.'”
The Messenger of Allah said: “No one dies and they stand over him crying and saying: ‘O what a great man he was! O how respectful he was!’ except that two angels are appointed for him to poke him (saying): ‘Is that you?'”
“I buried my son Sinan and Abu Talhah Al-Khawlani was sitting on the rim of the grave. When I wanted to leave he took me by my hand and said: ‘Shall I not inform you of some good new O Abu Sinan!’ I said: ‘Of course.’ He said: ‘Ad-Dahhak bin Abdur-Rahman bin Arzab narrated to me, from Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari: “The Messenger of Allah said: ‘When a child of the slave (of Allah) died, Allah says to the angels: “Have you taken the fruits of his work.” They reply: “Yes.” So He says: “What did My slave say?” They reply: “He praised you and mentioned that to You is the return.” So Allah says: “Build a house in Paradise for My slave, and name it ‘the house of praise.'”

“We were presented to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on the day of (the battle of) Quraizah. Whoever had pubic hair was killed and whoever did not was left to his way. I was of those who did not have pubic hair so I was left to my way.” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge. They consider pubic hair an indication of the age of responsibility, if it is not known whether he has had a wet dream, or his age. This is the view of Ahmad and Ishaq.
That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever meets Allah without any traces from Jihad he meets Allah with a defect. This Hadith is Gharib as a narration of Al-Walid bin Muslim from Isma’il bin Rafi’. Isma’il bin Rafi’ was graded weak by some of the people of Hadith. I heard Muhammad saying: “He is trustworthy, average (Muqarib) in Hadith.” This Hadith has been reported from Abu Hurairah from the Prophet (ﷺ) through other than this route. Regarding the Hadith of Salman, its chain is not connected, Muhammad bin Al-Munkadir did not see Salman Al-Farisi. This Hadith has been reported from Ayyub bin Musa, from Makhul, from Shurahbil bin As-Simt from Salman, from the Prophet (ﷺ).
“I heard Uthman while on the Minbar saying: ‘I did not inform you about a Hadith I had heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), out of dismay that you might part from me. Then it occurred to me that I should narrate to you so that one may choose from these matters accordingly. I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying: “(Ribat) Guarding the frontier for a day in Allah’s cause is beter in status than thousand days doing other than that.'” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih Gharib. Muhammad bin Ism’ail said: “Abu Salih, the freed slave of ‘Uthman’s name is Burkan.”
the freed salve of Muhammad bin Al-Qasim said: “Muhammad bin Al-Qasim sent me to Al-Bara’ bin ‘Azib to ask him about the flag of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He said: ‘It was a black square of Namirah.'” There are narrations on this topic from ‘Ali, Al-Harith bin Hassan, and Ibn ‘Abbas. This Hadith is Hasan Gharib, we don know know of it except from the report of Ibn Abi Za’idah. And Abu Ya’qub Ath-Thaqafi’s name is Ishaq bin Ibrahim. ‘Ubaidullah bin Musa also reports from him.
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took the hand of a leper and put it in the Qas’ah. Then he said: ‘Eat in Allah’s Name, trusting in Allah and relying upon Him.'” This is a Gharib Hadith, we do not know of it except through the report of Yunus bin Muhammad, from Al-Mufaddal bin Fadalah, a Shaikh from Al-Basrah. There is another Shaikh from Al-Basrah named Al-Mufaddal bin Fadalah, who is more reliable han this one and more popular. Shu’bah reported this Hadith from Habib bin Ash-Shahid, from Ibn Buraidah: “That Ibn ‘Umar took the hand of a leper” and the narration of Shu’bah is more appropriate to me and more correct.
“The Messenger of Allah sent Mu’adh to Yemen, and said: ‘Beware of the supplication of the oppressed; for indeed there is no barrier between it and Allah.'”
“When Allah decrees that a slave (of His) is to die in a land, He makes him have some need from it.” Or, he said: “In it.”
“I entered the Masjid at sunset, and the Prophet(s.a.w) was sitting. He said: ‘O Abu Dharr! Do you know where this(sun) goes?’ I said:’Allah and His Messenger know better.’ He said: ‘Indeed it goes to seek permission to prostrate, so it is permitted. And it is as if it has been said to it: “Rise from whence you came.” So it shall rise from its setting place.’ Then he recited: ‘That is its fixed course.”‘ He said: “That is the recitation of ‘Abdulla bim Mas’ud.”
that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Leave me with what I left you. When I narrated a Hadith to you, then take it from me. The people before you were only destroyed by their excessive questioning and disagreeing with their Prophets.”
that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Do not turn your houses into graves. Indeed Ash-Shaitan does not enter the house in which Surat Al-Baqarah is recited.”
that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): “For everything there is a hump (pinnacle) and the hump (pinnacle) of the Qur’an is Surat Al-Baqarah, in it there is an Ayah which is the master of the Ayat in the Qur’an; Ayat Al-Kursi.”
that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever recites Ha Mim Al-Mu’min – up to – To Him is the return (40:1-3) and Ayat Al-Kursi when he reaches (gets up in) the morning, he will be protected by them until the evening. And whoever recites them when he reaches the evening, he will be protected by them until the morning.”
from his father that ‘Ali bin Abi Talib said: “There is no Ayah in the Qur’an more beloved to me than this Ayah: Verily Allah forgives not associating others with Him, but He forgives what is less than that for whomever He wills (4:116).”
“O you people! You recite this Ayah: Take care of yourselves! If you follow the guidance no harm shall come to you from those who are astray (5:105). I indeed heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying: ‘When the people see the wrongdoer, and they do not stop him (from doing wrong), then it is soon that Allah shall envelope you in a punishment from Him.'”
“My father informed me, from Ibn Mina, from ABu Sa’eed bin Abi Fadalah Al-Ansari – and he was one of the Companions – who said: ‘I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “When Allah gathers the people on the Day of Judgement – a Day in which there is no doubt in – a caller will call out: ‘Whoever committed Shirk in any of his deeds he did for Allah – then let him seek his reward from other than Allah. For indeed Allah is the most free of the partners from any need of Shirk.”
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited: And warn them of a Day of griefs and regrets (19:39) and he said: ‘Death will be brought as if it is a mixed black and white ram, until it is halted upon the barrier between Paradise and the Fire. It will be said: ‘O people of Paradise! They will raise up their necks to look. It will be said: ‘O people of the Fire! And they will raise up their necks to look. It will be said: ‘Do you recognize this?’ They will say: ‘Yes. This is death.’ Then it will be laid down and slaughtered. If it were not that Allah had decreed that the inhabitants of Paradise would remain, then they would die of joy, and if it were not that Allah had decreed that the inhabitants of the Fire would remain, then they would die of grief.'”
“Al-Aqra’ bin Habis arrived to meet the Prophet (ﷺ)” – he said – “so Abu Bakr said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Appoint him over his people.’ ‘Umar said: ‘Do not appoint him O Messenger of Allah!’ They continued talking before the Prophet (ﷺ) until they raised their voices. Abu Bakr said to ‘Umar: ‘You only wanted to contradict me.’ So said: ‘I did not want to contradict you.'” He said: “So this Ayah was revealed: ‘O you who believe!
