“I said to ‘Ata’: ‘What is the best time you think I should pray Al-‘Atamah, either in congregation or on my own?’ He said: ‘I heard Ibn ‘Abbas say: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) delayed Al-‘Atamah one night until the people had slept and woken up, then slept and woken up again. Then ‘Umar got up and said: ‘The prayer, the prayer!'” ‘Ata’ said: ‘Ibn ‘Abbas said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out, and it is as if I can see him now, with water dripping from his head, putting his hand on the side of his head. .'” I checked with ‘Ata’ how the Prophet (ﷺ) put his hand on his head, and he showed me the same way as Ibn ‘Abbas had done. ‘Ata’ spread his fingers a little, then placed them with the tips of his fingers on his forehead, then he drew his fingers together on his head until his thumb touched the edge of the ear that is next to the face, then moved it to his temple and forehead, then he said: ‘Were it not that I would impose too much difficulty for my Ummah, I would have commanded them to offer this prayer only at this time.'”
“The Prophet (ﷺ) delayed ‘Isha’ one night until part of the night had passed. Then ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, got up and called out: ‘The prayer, O Messenger of Allah!

“The Prophet (ﷺ) delivered a Khutbah on the day of An-Nahr and said: ‘The first thing we start with on this day of ours is the prayer, then we offer sacrifice. Whoever does that, he has followed our sunnah, but whoever slaughtered (his sacrifice) before the (prayer), that is just meat that he gave to his family. Abu Burdah bin Niyar had slaughtered his sacrifice and he said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), I have a Jadha’ah that is better than a Musinnah.’ He said: ‘Slaughter it (as a sacrifice), but that will not be sufficient for anyone else (as a sacrifice) after you.'”
His father said: “While the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was on the minbar, Al-Hasan and Al-Husain came,wearing red shirts, walking and stumbling.

“A man was brought to ‘Abdullah who had married a woman without naming a dowry for her, then he died before consummating the marriage with her. ‘Abdullah said: ‘Ask whether they can find any report about that.’ They said: ‘O Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman, we cannot find any report about that.’ He said: ‘I will say what I think, and if it is correct then it is from Allah. She should have a dowry like that of her peers and no less, with no injustice, and she may inherit from him, and she has to observe the ‘Iddah.’ A man from Ashja’ stood up and said: “The Messenger of Allah passed a similar judgment among us concerning a woman called Birwa’ bint Washiq. She married a man who died before consummating the marriage with her, and the Messenger of Allah ruled that she should be given a dowry like that of her peers, and she could inherit, and she had to observe the ‘Iddah.’ ‘Abdullah raised his hands and said the Takbir.”
“I think that she should have a dowry like that of her peers no less, with no injustice and she may inherit from him and she has to observe the ‘Iddah.” Ma’qil bin Sinan Al-Ashja’i testified: “The Messenger of Allah passed a similar judgment concerning Birwa’ bint Washiq.”

while I was wandering in search of my camels which had strayed, a caravan or some horsemen carrying a standard came forward. The bedouin began to go round me for my position with the Prophet (ﷺ). They came to a domed structure, took out a man from it, and struck his neck. I asked about him. They told me that he had married his father’s wife.
I met my uncle who was carrying a standard. I asked him: Where are you going? He said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) has sent me to a man who has married his father’s wife. He has ordered me to cut off his head and take his property.

That he heard from Abu Hurairah, Zaid bin Khalid, and Shibl, that they were with the Prophet (ﷺ) and two men came to him disputing. So one of them stood before him and said: “I ask you by Allah, O Messenger of Allah! Only that you would judge between us by the book of Allah.” So his disputant said – and he was more eloquent that him: “I agree of O Messenger of Allah! Judge between us by the Book of Allah, and allow me to speak. My son was a servant for this man and he committed adultery with his wife. So they told me that my son was to be stoned. I paid him one hundred female sheep and a female slave. Then I met some people from the people of knowledge and they said that my son was to be lashed one hundred times, and to be banished for a year and that stoning is only for this man’s wife.” So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “By the One in Whose Hand is my soul! I will judge between you two by the Book of Allah. The one hundred female sheep and the female slave should be returned to you. For your son is one hundred lashes and banishment for a year. O Unais! Go to this Man’s wife, and if she confesses then stone her.” He went to her and she confessed, so he stoned her.
