He stayed there in a place. People went to the tyrant and informed him saying “A man has come down here; he has a most beautiful woman with him.” So he sent for him (Abraham) and asked about her.

‘Ubaid Allah bin ‘Abd Allah bin ‘Utbah said that his father wrote (a letter) to ‘Abd Allaah bin Al Arqam Al Zuhri asking him to visit Subai’ah daughter of Al Harith Al Aslamiyyah and ask her about her story and what the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) said to her when she asked his opinion (about her). So, ‘Umar bin Abd allah wrote in reply to ‘Abd Allah bin ‘Utbah informing him what she told him. She told that she was under (i.e., the wife of) Sa’d bin Khawlah who belonged to Banu Amir bin Luwayy. He was one of those who participated in the battle of Badr. He died at the Farwell Pilgrimage while she was pregnant. Soon after his death she gave birth to a child. When she was purified from her bleeding after child birth she adorned herself for seekers in marriage. Then Abu Al Sanabil bin Ba’kah a man from Banu Abd Al Dar entered upon her and said to her “What is the matter seeing you adorned, perhaps you are seeking marriage? I swear by Allah you cannot marry until four months and ten days pass away. Saubai’ah said “When she said this to me, I gathered my clothes on me when the evening came and I came to the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) and asked him about that. He told me that I became lawful when I had delivered a child. He suggested me to marry if I wished.

He said: Messenger of Allah, receive the oath of allegiance from him. He raised his head and looked at him thrice, denying him every time. After the third time he received his oath. He then turned to his Companions and said: Is not there any intelligent man among you who would stand to this (man) when he saw me desisting from receiving the oath of allegiance, and kill him? They replied: We do not know, Messenger of Allah, what lies in your heart; did you not give us an hint with your eye? He said: It is not proper for a Prophet to have a treacherous eye. Abu Dawud said: ‘Abd Allah (b. Abi Sarh) was the foster brother of ‘Uthman, and Walid b. ‘Uqbah was his brother by mother, and ‘Uthman inflicted on him hadd punishment when he drank wine.

AbuLabid said: We were with AbdurRahman ibn Samurah ibn Kabul. The people got booty and plundered it.

The Prophet moved on and when he came to the mountain, pass by which one descends (to Mecca) to them, his riding-beast knelt down, and the people said twice: Go on, go on, al-Qaswa has become jaded. The Prophet (May peace be upon him) said: She has not become jaded and that is not a characteristic of hers, but He Who restrained the elephant has restrained her. He then said: By Him in Whose hand my soul is, they will not ask any me good thing by which they honor which God has made sacred without my giving them it. He then urged her and she leaped up and he turned aside from them, and stopped at the farthest side of al-Hudaibiyyah at a pool with little water. Meanwhile Budail bin Warqa al-Khuza’I came, and ‘Urwah bin Mas’ud joined him. He began to speak to the Prophet (ﷺ). Whenever he spoke to the Prophet (ﷺ), he caught his beard. Al Mughriah bin Shu’bah was standing beside the Prophet (ﷺ).He had a sword with him, wearing a helmet. He (Al Mughriah) struck his (‘Urwah’s) hand with the lower end of his sheath, and said: Keep away your hand from his beard. ‘Urwah then raised his hand and asked: Who is this? They replied: Al-Mughirah bin Shu’bah. He said: O treacherous one! Did I not use my offices in your treachery? In pre-Islamic days Al-Mughirah bin Shu’bah accompanied some people and murdered them, and took their property. He then came (to the Prophet) and embraced Islam. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: As for Islam we accepted it, but as to the property, as it has been taken by treachery, we have no need of it. He went on with the tradition the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Write down: This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, has decided. He then narrated the tradition. Suhail then said: And that a man will not come to you from us, even if he follows your religion, without you sending him back to us. When he finished drawing up the document, the Prophet (ﷺ) said to his Companions: Get up and sacrifice and then shave. Thereafter some believing women who were immigrants came. (Allah sent down: O yea who believe, when believing women come to you as emigrants). Allah most high forbade them to send them back, but ordered them to restore the dower. He then returned to Medina. Abu Basir a man from the Quraish (who was a Muslim), came to him. And they sent (two men) to look for him; so he handed him over to the two men. They took him away, and when they reached Dhu Al Hulaifah and alighted to eat some dates which they had, Abu Basir said to one of the men : I swear by Allah so-and-so, that I think this sword of yours is a fine one; the other drew the sword and said : Yes I have tried it. Abu Basir said: Let me look at it. He let him have it and he struck him till he died, whereupon the other fled and came to Medina, and running entered the mosque. The Prophet ( may peace be upon him) said: This man has seen something frightful. He said: I swear by Allah that my Companion has been killed, and im as good as dead. Abu Basir then arrived and said: Allah has fulfilled your covenant. You returned me to them, but Allah saved me from them. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Woe to his mother, stirrer up of war!

He, therefore, came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: Messenger of Allah, my father left in his will that a hundred slaves should be emancipated on his behalf and Hisham has emancipated fifty on his behalf and fifty remain.

So he (the Prophet) said to Aisha: Abuse her. So she abused her and dominated her. Zaynab then went to Ali and said: Aisha abused you and did (such and such). Then Fatimah came (to the Prophet) and he said to her: She is the favourite of your father, by the Lord of the Ka’bah! She then returned and said to them: I said to him such and such, and he said to me such and such. Then Ali came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and spoke to him about that.

(it would be better) if you could take the cloak which your slave wore, and you combined that with, and it would be a pair of garments (hullah) and you would clothe him with another garment. He said: Abu Dharr said : I abused a man whose mother was a non-Arab and I reviled him for his mother. He complained against me to the apostle of allah (May peace be upon him). He said: Abu Dharr! You are a man who has a characteristic of pre-Islamic days. He said: they are your brethren; Allah has given you superiority over them; sell those who do not please you and do not punish Allah’s creatures.

Then raise your head and say it ten times before standing. That is seventy-five in every Rak’ah, which is three-hundred in four Rak’ah. If your sins were like a heap of sand then Allah would forgive you.” He said: “O Messenger if Allah! Who is able to say that every day?” He said: “If you can not say it every day then say it every Friday, and if you are not able to say it every Friday then say it every month.” And he did not stop saying that until he said: “Then say it every year.”

If they comply with that, then inform them that Allah has made five prayers obligatory upon them in a day and a night. If they comply with that, then inform then that Allah has ordained a charity upon their wealth, which is to be taken from the rich among them and given to the poor among them. If they comply with that, then beware of their most precious wealth, and protect yourself from the supplication of the oppressed, for there is no barrier between it and Allah.”

(A similar narration as no. 633.)

the Messenger of Allah said: “Indeed Allah accepts charity, and He accepts it with His Right (Hand) to nurture it for one of you, just like one of you would nuture his foal, until the bite (of food) becomes as large as Uhud.” The Book of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime testifies to that: ‘He accepts repentance from His worshipers, and accepts charity.’And: ‘Allah will destroy Riba and give increase for charity.’ (Abu Eisa) said: This Hadith is (Hasan) Sahih.

the Prophet said: “Do not precede the month with a day nor with two days, unless that fast falls on a day that one of you would have (normally) fasted. Fast with its sighting and break fast with its sighting, and if it is cloudy, then count for thirty days, and then break (the fast).”

“Some cavalry man of the Messenger of Allah came galloping upon us, so I came to the Messenger of Allah and found him having lunch. He said: “Come and eat.” I said: ‘I am fasting.’ So he said: ‘Come and I will narrate to you about the fast – or fasting. Indeed Allah Most High lifted (the fast and) half of the Salat from the traveler, and (He lifted) the fast – or fasting – from the pregnant person, or the breast-feeding person.’ And by Allah! The Prophet said both of them or one of them. So woe to me! For I did not eat from the meal of the Prophet.”

(A Hadith similar to no. 716 with a different chain.)

“I met up with Ibn Abbas while he was reclining on his Rida at the Zamzam (well). So I said: ‘Inform me about the Day of Ashura.

Then he left there during the night, then he was in Al-Ji’irranah by the morning, as if he had spent the night. When the sun passed the zenith in the morning he left from the midst of Sarif until he came on a road from amidst Sarif. It is because of this that his Umrah was concealed from the people.”

The Messenger of Allah said about the (Black) Stone: “By Allah! Allah will raise it on the Day of Resurrection with two eyes by which it sees and a tongue that it speaks with, testifying to whoever touched it in truth.”

“The Messenger of Allah came to Hamza on the Day of Uhud, he stood over him and saw that he had been mutilated. He said: Had it not been that Safiyyah would be distressed, then I would have left him to be eaten by the beasts until he was gathered on the Day of Judgment from their stomachs.” He said: “Then he called for a Namirah to shroud him with. When it was extended over his head, it left his feet exposed, and when it was extended over his feet, it left his head exposed.” He said: “There were many dead and few cloths.” He said: “One, two and three men were shrouded in one cloth and buried in one grave.” He said: “So the Messenger of Allah was asking which of them knew the most Quran, so he could put him toward the Qibalh.” He said: “So the Messenger of Allah buried them and he did not perform (funeral prayers) for them.”

So when Aishah arrived she went to the grave of Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Bakr and she said: “We were like two drinking companions of Jadhimah for such a long time that they would say: ‘They will never part.’ So when we were separated it was as if I and Malik – due to the length of unity – never spent a night together.”

The Messenger of Allah said: “Every divorce is valid except the divorce of the Ma’tuh person whose reason is overcome.” (Da’if Jiddan)

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to the people of weights and measures: “Indeed you have been entrusted with two matters that nations preceding you in the past were destroyed for.” We do not know this Hadith to be Marfu’ except through the narration of Husain bin Qais, and Husain bin Qais was graded weak in Hadith. This has been reported as Maquf narration from Ibn ‘Abbas with a Sahih chain of narration.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prohibited Muhaqalah and Muzabanah. There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Umar, Ibn ‘Abbas, Zaid bin Thabit, Sa’d, Jabir, Rafi’ bin Khadij, and Abu Sa’eed. The Hadith of Abu Hurairah is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. Muhaqalah is selling corps for wheat, and Muzabanah is selling dates that are on the date-palm for dried dates. This is acted upon according to the most of the people of knowledge, they disliked sales of Muhaqalah and Muzabanah.

From Malik bin Aws bin Hadathan that he said: “I once said: ‘Who can change some Dirham?’ So Talhah bin ‘Ubaidullah – and he was with ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab – said: “Leave your gold with us, then return to us when our servant comes and we will give you your silver.” ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab said: “No! By Allah! Either give him his silver or return his gold to him. Indeed the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Silver for gold is Riba, except for hand to hand; and wheat for wheat is Riba except for hand to hand; and barley for barley is Riba except hand to hand; and dried-dates for dried-dates is Riba except for hand to hand.'” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge. And the meaning of Ha’ Wa Ha’ is hand to hand.

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Both the buyer and the seller retain the option as long as they have not separated. If they spoke the truth and clarified (any defects or conditions), then they would be blessed in their sale, and if they hid something and lied then their sale would be deprived of blessings.” And this is a Sahih Hadith. This is how it was reported from Abu Barzah Al-Aslami, that two men came disputing to him after the sale of a horse, and they were on a ship, so he said: “I did not see the two of your separate, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘The buyer and the seller retain the choice as long as they did not separate.'” Some of the people of knowledge, among the people of Al-Kufah and others, held the view that the separation refers to speech. This is the saying of Ath-Thawri. This has been reported from Malik bin Anas, and it has been reported from Ibn al-Mubarak that he said: “How could this be refuted ?” And the Hadith about it from the Prophet (ﷺ) is Sahih, and it strenghtens this view. And the meaning of the saying of the Prophet (ﷺ): “Except for the optional sale” is, that (while they are still together) the seller gives the buyer the option to cancel after the conclusion of the sale. If he chooses to agree to the sale, then he does not have the choice to cancel the sale after then, even if they did not separate. This is how Ash-Shafi’i and others explained it. And what strenghtens the view of those who said that the separation refers to them parting, (and) it does not refer to speech, is the (following) Hadith of ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr from the Prophet (ﷺ).

“The Prophet (ﷺ) gave a Bedouin the option after a sale.” This Hadith is Hasan Gharib.

] This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) and others. They did not think that an embellished (silver-gilded) sword could be sold for Dirham, nor a silver-plated waist-band, or something similar, until it (the silver) was distinguished and separated. This is the view of Ibn al-Mubarak, Ash-Shafi’i, Ahmad and Ishaq. Some of the people of knowledge, among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) and others, permitted that.

From Iyas bin ‘Abd al-Muzani who said: “The Prophet (ﷺ) prohibited selling water.” There are narrations on this topic from Jabir, Buhaisah from her father, Abu Hurairah, ‘Aishah, Anas and ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr. The Hadith is Iyas is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge, they dislike selling water. This is the view of Ibn Al-Mubarak, Ash-Shafi’i, Ahmad, and Ishaq. Some of the people of knowledge permitted selling water, Al-Hasan al-Basri is one of them.

That the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever buys food, then he is not to sell it until he takes possession of it.” Ibn ‘Abbas said: “All things are considered the same (in this regard).” There are narrations on this topic from Jabir, Ibn ‘Umar, and Abu Hurairah. The Hadith of Ibn ‘Abbas is a Hasan Sahih Hadith.

That the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “When one of you comes upon livestock, if its owner is with it then seek his permission. If he permits him then let him milk it and drink. If there is no one with it then call out three times, if someone answers then seek his permission. If no one answers then let him milk it and drink without carrying (any of it away).” There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Umar and Abu Sa’eed. The Hadith of Samurah is a Hasan Gharib Sahih Hadith. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge, and it is the view of Ahmad and Ishaq. ‘Ali bin Al-Madini said: “It is correct that Al-Hasan heard this from Samurah.” Some of the people of Hadith criticized the narrations of Al-Hasan from Samurah, they said that he only narrated from a writing of Samurah.

From Zaid bin Thabit that the Prophet (ﷺ) prohibited Al-Muhalaqah and Al-Muzabanah, except that he permitted those practice Al-‘Araya to sell it for a like estimation. There are narrations on this topic from Abu Hurairah and Jabir. The Hadith if Zaid bin Thabit: This is how Muhammad bin Ishaq reported this Hadith. Ayyub, ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Umar, and Malik bin Anas reported it from Nafi’, from ‘Ibn Umar: “The Prophet (ﷺ) prohibited Al-Muhalaqah and Al-Muzabanah.” With this chain of narration, it has been reported from Ibn ‘Umar, from Zaid bin Thabit, from the Prophet (ﷺ) that he permitted Al-‘Araya in cases less that five Wasq. This is more correct than the narration of Muhammad bin Ishaq.

“Makhrafah Al-‘Abdi and I brought linens from Hajar. The Prophet (ﷺ) came to us in bargain with us with some pants. There was someone with me who weighed (the goods) to determine the value. So the the Prophet (ﷺ) said to the one weighing: ‘Weigh and add more.'” There are narrations on this topic from Jabir and Abu Hurairah. The Hadith of Suwaid is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. The people of knowledge consider it recommended to add more when weighing. Shu’bah reported this Hadith from Simak, so he said: “From Abu Safwan” and he mentioned the narration.

That the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Procrastination (in paying a debt) by a rich person is oppression. So if your debt is transferred from your debtor to a rich debtor, you should agree.” He said: There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Umar, and Ash-Sharid bin Suwaid Ath-Thaqafi.

“The judges are three: Two judges that are in the Fire, and a judge that is in Paradise. A man who judges without the truth, and he knows that. This one is in the Fire. One who judges while not knowing, ruining the rights of the people. So he is in the Fire. A judge who judges with the truth, that is the one in Paradise.”] (Daif)

This person broke one of my teeth.’ Mu’awiyah said: ‘We will try to get satisfaction for you.’ And the other person insisted that Mu’awiyah get him to agree : “There is no man who is struck in his body and he forgives for it, except that Allah raises him a level and removes a sin from him.'” The Ansari said: ‘Did you hear that from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’ He said: “My ears heard it and my heart remembered it.’ He said: ‘Then I will leave it to him.’ Mu’awiyah said: ‘Surely you should not suffer.’ So he ordered that he be given some wealth.”

from his father, from his grandfather that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The Muslim is not killed for disbeliever.” And with this chain, it has been narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The blood-money paid for disbeliever is half of the blood-money paid for a believer.”

Yahya (one of the narrators) said: And I think it was from Rafi’ bin Khadij – that ‘Abdullah bin Sahl bin Zaid and Muhaiysah bin Mas’ud bin Zaid went out and when they reached Khaibar they separated while there. Then Muhayyisah found ‘Abdullah bin Sahl murdered . Then he went to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) along with Huwayyisah bin Mas’ud and Abdur-Rahman bin Sahl. The youngest of the people, Abdur-Rahman, went to speak ahead of his companions. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: “Let the eldest of you speak.” So he was silent and two companions spoke. So he conversed with them and they mentioned to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about the murder of ‘Abdullah bin Sahl. He said to them: “If fifty of you can swear an oath then you will have the right against the murderer.” They said: “How can we take an oath when we did not witness it?” He said: “Then fifty of Jews can swear to clear the charge with you?” They said: “How could we accept the oaths of a disbelieving people?” So when he saw that, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) paid the blood-money.” (Another Chain) from Sahl bin Abi Hathman and Rafi’ bin Khadij, and the meaning is similar to this Hadith.

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The Muslim is the brother of the Muslim, he doesn’t oppress him and doesn’t put him into ruin, and whoever is concerned for the needs of his brother, Allah is concerned for his needs, and whoever relieves a Muslim of a burden, Allah will relieve him of a burden from the burdens of the Day of Judgement and whoever covers (the faults of) a Muslim, Allah will cover (his faults) on the Day of Judgement.”

From his father that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I used to prohibit you from (eating) the meat of Sacrifice beyond three days so that those who have the ability would give to those who do not have it. So (now) eat as you like, feed others, and save from it.”

“I heard Sulaim bin ‘Amir saying: ‘There was a treaty between Mu’awiyah and the people of Rome. He was making an expedition into their lands so that when the period of the treaty was expires he would attack them. So when a man upon an animal’ – or – ‘upon a horse said: “Allahu Akbar! Fulfillment not betrayal!” – and it turned out to be ‘Amr bin ‘Abasah – Mu’awiyah asked him about that. He said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whoever has a treaty between himself and a people, then let him not violate the treaty nor try to change it until its time has passed, or , in retribution for a similar offense.'” He said: “So Mu’awiyah returned with the people.” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

“I fought along with the Prophet (ﷺ), and if Fajr had begun he would wait until the sun rose, and when it rose he would fight. And if it was the middle of the daytime, he would wait until the sun passed the zenit, and when it passed the zenith he would fight until ‘Asr. Then he would wait until he prayed ‘Asr, then he would fight.” He said: “And it is used to be said during that (time) the the wind of victory was raging, and the believers would supplicate for their armies in their Salat.” This Hadith has been reported from An-Nu’man bin Muqarrin through a chain that is more connected that this. Qatadah did not see An-Nu’man bin Muqarrin. An-Nu’man died during the Khilafah of ‘Umar.

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “To go out in the cause of Allah in the morning, or the afternoon, is better than the world and what is in it. And the space that a bow of one of you – or the space that his hand – would occupy in Paradise is better than the world and what is in it. And if a woman among the women inhabiting Paradise were to appear to the people of the earth, then she would illuminate what is between the ( the heavens and the earth), and a pleasant scent would fill up what is between them, and the scarf on her head is better than the world and what is in it.” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

That the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Shall I not inform you of the best of the people ? A man who takes hold of the reins of his horse in Allah’s cause. Shall I not inform you of the one who comes after him ? The man who secludes himself from the people with a small group of sheep of his, thereby fulfilling Allah’s right. Shall I not inform you about the worst of the people ? A man who is asked by (the Name of) Allah, but not given by Him.” This Hadith is Hasan Gharib from this route. This Hadith has been reported through other routes from Ibn ‘Abbas, from the Prophet (ﷺ).

“I heard my father saying in the presence of the enemy: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Indeed, the gates of Paradise are under the shadows of the swords.'” A man among the people with ragged appearance said: ‘Have you heard what you mentioned from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ So he returned to his comrades and bid them Salam (farewell), broke the sheath of his sword, and began fighting with it until he was killed.” .

Destroy the locusts, kill the large among him, and destroy the small, spoil his core, and cut off his rear. Take their mouths from our livelihood and our sustenance. Verily, You indeed listen to the supplication!’ So a man said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! How is it that you supplicate against one of the Allah’s armies that He cut off their rear?'” He said: “So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘They are bit scattered from a fish in the ocean.'” This Hadith is Gharib. We do not know of it except from this route. And Musa bin Muhammad bin Ibrahim At-Taimi has been criticized. He narrates many Gharib and Munkar narrations. His father Muhammad bin Ibrahim is trustworthy, and he is from Al-Madinah.

Their leader was stung so they came to us saying: ‘Is there anyone among you who can treat a scorpion sting with Ruqyah?’ I said: ‘Yes I can. But I will not do any Ruqyah until you give us some sheep.’ They said: ‘Then we shall give you thirty sheep.’ We accepted that,and I recited Al-Hamda seven times. He became better and we took the sheep.” He said: “We became concerned about that being permissible and said: ‘Do not be hasty until we reach the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W).” He said: “When we arrived with him I mentioned what I did to him. He(S.A.W)said: ‘How did you know that it was a Ruqyah? Take the sheep, and assign me a share among you.'”

the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prohibited selling the Wala’ and conferring it. This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. We do not know of it except as a narration of ‘Abdullah bin Dinar from Ibn ‘Umar from the Prophet (ﷺ). Shu’bah, Sufyan Ath-Thawri, and Malik bin Anas (also) reported it from ‘Abdullah bin Dinar. It has been related that Shu’bah said: “I so wished that ‘Abdullah bin Dinar would permit me when he narrated this Hadith that I stand-up, so that I kiss his head.” And Yahya bin Sulaim reported this Hadith from ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Umar from Nafi’, from Ibn ‘Umar from the Prophet (ﷺ). But this is mistaken, Yahya bin Sulaim erred in it, what is correct is: “From ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Umar, from ‘Abdullah bin Dinar, from Ibn ‘Umar from the Prophet (ﷺ). This is how it is reported by more than one narrator from ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Umar. And ‘Abdullah bin Dinar is alone with this Hadith.

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.’ 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.

That you say: O Allah, we ask You from the good of what Your Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) asked You for, and we seek refuge in You from the evil of that which Your Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) sought refuge in You from, and You are the one from Whom aid is sought, and it is for You to fulfill, and there is no might or power except by Allah (Allāhumma innā nas’aluka min khairi mā sa’alaka minhu nabiyyuka Muḥammad, ṣallallāhu `alaihi wa sallam, wa na`ūdhu bika min sharri masta`ādha minhu nabiyyuka Muḥammad, ṣallallāhu `alaihi wa sallam, wa antal-musta`ānu wa `alaikal-balāgh, wa lā ḥawla wa lā quwwata illā billāh).’”

When dawn was approaching, Bilal went to his mount, facing towards the east, watching for the dawn. Then Bilal’s eyes grew heavy while he was leaning on his mount (and he slept). Neither Bilal nor any of his Companions woke until they felt the heat of the sun. The Messenger of Allah was the first one to wake up. The Messenger of Allah was startled and said: “O Bilal!” Bilal said: “The same thing happened to me as happened to you. May my father and mother be ransomed for you, O Messenger of Allah!” He said: “Bring your mounts forward a little.” So they brought their mounts forward a little (away from that place). Then the Messenger of Allah performed ablution and told Bilal to call the Iqamah for prayer, and he led them in the prayer. When the Prophet finished praying, he said: “Whoever forgets a Salah, let him pray it when he remembers, for Allah says: And perform the prayer for My remembrance.” He (one of the narrators) said: “Ibn Shihab used to recite this Verse as meaning, ‘when you remember’.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: There are two characteristics in which the Muslims are dependent upon their Mu’adh-dhins: their prayer and their fasting.”

“He is sleeping.” He said: “As-salatu khairum minan-nawm, As-salatu khairum minan-nawm (The prayer is better than sleep, the prayer is better than sleep). These words were approved of in the Adhan for the Fajr, and that is how it remained.

When he wanted to bow he did likewise; when he raised his head from bowing he did likewise; and when he stood up after the two prostrations he did likewise.”*

“When a person prostrates, seven parts of his body prostrate with him: His face, his two hands, his two knees, and his two feet.”

“Mu’adh bin Jabal Al-Ansari led his companions in the ‘Isha’ prayer and he made it long. A man among us went away and prayed by himself. Mu’adh was told about that and he said: ‘He is a hypocrite.’ When the man heard about that, he went to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and told him what Mu’adh had said to him. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘Do you want to be a cause of Fitnah (trial, tribulation), O Mu’adh? When you lead the people in prayer, recite “By the sun and its brightness,” and “Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High,” and “By the night as it envelopes,” and “Recite in the Name of your Lord.’”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Make your rows straight, for straightening the rows is part of completing the prayer.’”

It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Thabit bin Samit, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) performed prayer among Banu ‘Abdul-Ashhal, wearing a cloak in which he was wrapped and putting his hands on it to protect them from the cold of the pebbles.

“Allahumma laka sajadtu, wa bika amantu, wa laka aslamtu, Anta rabbi, sajada wajhi lilladhi shaqqa sam’ahu wa basarahu, tabarak Allah ahsanul-khaliqin (O Allah, to You I have prostrated, and in You I have believed, and to You I have submitted. You are my Lord; my face has prostrated to the One Who gave it hearing and sight. Blessed is Allah the best of Creators).”

“Allah enjoined the prayer upon the tongue of your Prophet (ﷺ): Four Rak’ah while a resident and two Rak’ah when traveling.”

“The Prophet (ﷺ) saw a man praying two Rak’ah after the Subh prayer and said, ‘Is the Subh prayer to be offered twice?’ The man said to him: ‘I did not pray the two Rak’ah before it, so I prayed them (now).’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remained silent.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led us in one of the afternoon prayers, and he prayed two Rak’ah, then he said the Salam. Then he stood up and went to a piece of wood in the mosque, and leaned against it. Those who were in a hurry left the mosque, saying that the prayer had been shortened. Among the people were Abu Bakr and ‘Umar, but they dared not say anything. Among the people there was also a man with long hands who was called Dhul- Yadain. He said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, has the prayer been shortened or did you forget?’ He said: ‘It has not been shortened and I did not forget.’ He said: ‘But you prayed two Rak’ah.’ He said: ‘Is what Dhul- Yadain says true?’ They said: ‘Yes.’ So he went forward and performed two Rak’ah and said the Salam, then he prostrated twice, and then he said the Salam again.”

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (ﷺ) commanded killing the two black ones during prayer; the scorpion and the snake.

“I heard Ibn ‘Abbas say: ‘I bear witness that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prayed before the sermon, then he delivered the sermon. And he thought that the women had not heard, so he went over to them and reminded them (of Allah) and preached to them and enjoined them to give in charity, and Bilal was spreading his hands like this, and the women started giving their earrings, rings and things.’”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out on the Day of Al-Fitr or Al-Adha, and delivered a sermon standing up. Then he sat down briefly, then stood up again.”

It was narrated from Muhammad bin ‘Ubaidullah bin Abu Rafi’, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to come to ‘Eid prayers walking.

“I did not know of the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) reciting the entire Qur’an until morning.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Allah provides respite until, when half or two thirds of the night had passed, He says: “My slave does not ask of anyone other than Me. Whoever calls upon Me, I will answer him; whoever asks of Me, I will give him; whoever asks My forgiveness, I will forgive him,” until dawn comes.’”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whoever purifies himself in his house, then comes to the Quba’ Mosque and offers one prayer therein, will have a reward like that for ‘Umrah.”

“Five are the rights of the Muslim: Returning his greeting, accepting his invitation; attending his funeral; visiting the sick; and answering (saying Yarhamuk-Allah) to the one who sneezes, if he praises Allah (says Al-Hamdu Lillah).”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came walking to visit me (when I was sick), as did Abu Bakr, when I was with Banu Salimah.

“I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): ‘When does a person stop recognizing people?’ he said: ‘When he sees.”

“I prayed with ‘Abdullah bin Abi Awfa Al-Aslami, the Companion of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), offering the funeral prayer for a daughter of his. He said Takbir over her four times, and he paused for a while after the fourth. I heard the people saying Subhan- Allah to him throughout the rows. Then he said the Salam and said: ‘Did you think that I was going to say a fifth Takbir?’ They said: ‘We were afraid of that.’ He said: ‘I was not going to do that, but the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say four Takbir, then pause for a while, and he would say whatever Allah willed he should say, then he would say the Salam.’”

“There was a black woman who used to sweep the mosque, and she passed away at night. The following morning the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was told of her death. He said: ‘Why did you not call me?’ Then he went out with his Companions and stood at her grave, and said Takbir over her, with the people behind him, and he supplicated for her, then he went away.’”

“The deceased is punished for the weeping of the living. If they say: ‘O my strength, O he who clothed us, O my help, O my rock,’ and so on, he is rebuked and it is said: ‘Were you really like that? Were you really like that?’” Asid said: “I said: ‘Subhan-Allah! Allah says: “And no bearer of burdens shall another’s burden (35:18).” He said: “Woe to you, I tell you that Abu Musa narrated to me from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and you think that Abu Musa was telling lies about the Prophet (ﷺ)?

Then I heard that woman, behind her curtain, say: ‘If the Messenger of Allah has told you to do that, then do it, otherwise I adjure you by Allah (not to do so)’. And it was as if she regarded that as a serious matter. So I looked at her and married her.” And he mentioned how well he got along with her.

A man said: “I will buy them for two Dirham.” So he gave them to him and took the two Dirham, which he gave to the Ansari and said: “Buy food with one of them and give it to your family, and buy an axe with the other and bring it to me.” So he did that, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took it and fixed a handle to it, and said: “Go and gather firewood, and I do not want to see you for fifteen days.” So he went and gathered firewood and sold it, then he came back, and he had earned ten Dirham. (The Prophet (ﷺ)) said: “Buy food with some of it and clothes with some.” Then he said: “This is better for you than coming with begging (appearing) as a spot on your face on the Day of Resurrection.
