Sunan al-Nasa'i — The Book of Purification

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘When any one of you enters Al-Khala’ (the toilet), let him not touch his penis with his right hand.'”

“None of you should urinate into a burrow in the ground.” They said to Qatadah: “Why is it disliked to urinate into a burrow in the ground?” He said: “It is said that these are dwelling-places of the jinn.”

“When any one of you drinks, let him not breathe into the vessel, and when he goes to the toilet let him not touch his penis with his right hand, nor wipe himself with this right hand.”

“O Messenger of Allah, Allah is not shy to tell the truth. Does a women have to perform Ghusl if she has a wet dream?” He said: “Yes, if she sees water.” Umm Salamah laughed and said: “Do women really have wet dreams?” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “How else would her child resemble her?” That is, if she has an emission of the fluid of an orgasm.

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and I would sleep under a single blanket when I was menstruating. If anything got on him from me, he would wash that spot and no more, and pray in it, then come back. If anything got on it again from me, he would do likewise and no more, and he would pray in it.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded that dogs be killed. He said: ‘What do they have to do with dogs?’ And he granted a concession regarding hunting dogs and sheepdogs. And he said: ‘If a dog licks a vessel, wash it seven times, and rub it the eighth time with dust.’ Abu Hurairah differed from him and said: ‘Rub it one time with dust.'”

“O Messenger of Allah, I do not become pure, so should I stop praying? He said: “no, that is a vein.” – (One of the narrators) Khalid said, in what I read from him – “and it is not menstruation, so when your period comes, stop praying, and when it goes, wash the blood from yourself and pray.”

“While I was lying down with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) under a blanket, my period came so I slipped away and put on the clothes I used to wear when I was menstruating. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Are you menstruating?’ I said: ‘Yes.’ Then he called me to lie down with him under the blanket.” This is the wording of ‘Ubaidullah bin Sa’eed. That is, one of the narrators in one of the chains, as the author reported it through different chains, as he did when it preceded, see No. 284.

“None of you should urinate into standing water which does not flow and then perform Ghusl with it.” (One of the narrators) Sufyan said: “They said to Hisham – meaning Ibn Hassan – ‘Ayyub only attributed this Hadith to Abu Hurairah?’ So he said: ‘If Ayyub is not able to raise up a narration then he does not raise it.'” That is, he narrated it from Abu Hurairah, rather than from him from the Prophet (ﷺ) while others narrated it in Marfu’ form or “raised” to the Prophet (ﷺ) And perhaps by: “If he is able to not raise it” he means: “If he is not able to raise it.” And Allah knows best.

“Busrah bint Safwan told me that.” ‘Urwah sent someone to check that, and she said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) mentioned what Wudu’ is done for, and said: ‘Touching the penis.'”

“The Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) commanded Bilal to say the phrases of the Adhan twice and the phrases of the Iqamah once.”

“Abu Qilabah said to me (Ayyub): He (‘Amr) is still alive, do you want to meet him?” I met him and asked him, and he said: “When Makkah was conquered, all the people hastened to announce their Islam. My father went to announce the Islam of the poeple of our village, and when he came back we went to see him and he said: ‘By Allah, I have indeed come to you from the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W)’. He said: ‘Pray such and such a prayer at such and such a time, pray such and such a prayer at such and such a time. When the time for prayer comes let one of you call the Adhan and let the one who knows the most Qur’an lead the prayer.'”

(Another chain) from Ibrahim, from Al-Aswad, with similar narration.

X”I heard Abu Uthman narrate that Ibn Mas’ud said: ‘The Prophet (ﷺ) saw me when I had placed my left hand on my right in prayer. He took hold of my right hand and placed it on my left.'”

His father said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to lead us in prayer, and he would recite in the first two rak’ahs and make us hear some verses. And he would make the (first) Rak’ah lengthy in Zuhr, and also the first rak’ah.” Meaning in Subh.

“I shall explain to you the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).” He said: “Abu Hurairah used to say the Qunut in the last rak’ah of the Zuhr prayer, and the later Isha’ prayer, and the Subh, after saying ‘Sami Allahu liman hamidah.’ He would pray for the believers and curse the disbelievers.'”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said the Qunut for a month.”- (One of the narrators) Shu’bah said: “He cursed some men.” Hisham said: “He supplicated against some of the tribes of Arabs.”-“Then he stopped doing that after bowing.” This is what Hisham said. Shu’bah said, narrating from Qatadah, from Anas that the Prophet (ﷺ) said the Qunut for a month, cursing Ri’l, Dhawkan and Lihyan.

He saw the Prophet (ﷺ) raise his hands when praying, when he bowed, when he raised his head from bowing, when he prostrated and when he raised his head from prostrating, until they were in level with the top part of his ears.

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out to us for one of the nighttime prayers, and he was carrying Hasan or Husain. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came forward and put him down, then he said the Takbir and started to pray. He prostrated during his prayer, and made the prostration lengthy.” My father said: “I raised my head and saw the child on the back of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) while he was prostrating so I went back to my prostration. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) finished praying, the people said: “O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), you prostrated during the prayer for so long that we thought that something had happened or that you were receiving a revelation.’ He said: ‘No such thing happened. But my son was riding on my back and I did not like to disturb him until he had enough.'”

“We used not to know what to say when we prayed, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught us some eloquent and concise words. He said to us: ‘Say: “At-tahiyyatu lillahi was-salawatu wat-tayyibat, as-salamu ‘alaika ayyuhan-Nabiyyu wa rahmatAllahi wa baraktuhu. As-salamu ‘alaina wa ‘ala ‘ibad illahis-salihin, ashahdu an la illaha ill-Allah wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan ‘abduhu wa rasuluhu (Allah compliments, prayers and pure words are due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah (SWT) and his blessings. Peace be upon us and upon the righteous slaves of Allah (SWT). I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger).” (One of the narrators) ‘Ubaidullah said: “Zaid bin Hammad said, narrating from Ibrahim, that ‘Alqamah said: ‘I saw Ibn Mas’ud teaching us these words just as he taught us the Quran.”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever has doubt during his prayer, let him prostrate twice.” (One of the narrators) Hajjaj said: “After he has said the taslim.” (Another of them) Rawh said: “While he is sitting.”

“We fasted Ramadan with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and the Prophet (ﷺ) did not lead us in Qiyam until there were seven days left of the month, then he led us in Qiyam until one-third of the night had passed. Then, when there were six days left, he did not lead us in Qiyam. When there were five days left, he led us in praying Qiyam until half the night had passed. We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (SA), why don’t you lead us in praying Qiyam for the rest of the night?’ He said: ‘If a man prays with the Imam until he leaves, that will be continued for him as if he spent the whole night in prayer.’ Then, when there were four days left, he did not lead us in praying Qiyam. When there were three days left he sent for his daughters and women, and gathered the people, and he led us in praying Qiyam until we feared that we would miss Al-Falah. Then he did not lead us in praying Qiyam for the rest of the month.” Dawud (one of the narrators) said: “I said: ‘ What is falah?’ He said: ‘Sahur.’

“The sun was eclipsed during the life of the Prophet (ﷺ). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out to the masjid and stood and said the takbir, and the people formed rows behind him. He bowed four times and prostrated four times, and the eclipse ended before he finished.”

“The sun eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) got up to pray, and those who were with him also got up. He stood for a long time, then he bowed for a long time, then he raised his head and (then) prostrated for a long time. Then he raised his head and sat for a long time. Then he prostrated for a long time, then he raised his head and stood up, and he did in the second rak’ah the same as he had done in the first, standing, bowing, prostrating and sitting. He started blowing and weeping at the end of his prostration in the second rak’ah, saying: ‘You did not tell me that You would do that while I was still among them; You d not tell me that You would do that while we are asking You for forgiveness.’ Then he raised his head and the eclipse ended. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood and addressed the people. He praised and glorified Allah then he said: “The sun and moon are two of the signs of Allah (SWT), the Mighty and Sublime. If you see either of them being eclipsed, then hasten to remember Allah (SWT), the Mighty and Sublime. By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, Paradise was brought so near to me that if I had stretched out my hand, I could have taken some of its fruits. And Hell was brought so near to me that I tried to ward it off for fear it may overwhelm you. I saw therein a woman from Himyar who was being punished because of a cat she tied up, not leaving it free to eat of the vermin of the earth, nor feeding it or giving it water, until it died. I saw it biting her when she came and biting her backside when she went. And I saw the owner of the Sabtiyatain, the brother of Banu As-Da’da, being pushed with a two-pronged stick in the Fire. And I saw the owner of the stick with a crooked end, who used to steal from the Hajj pilgrims with that crooked stick, leaning on his stick in Hell and saying: ‘I am the thief with the crooked stick.'”

“The sun eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He stood and led the people in prayer. He stood for a long time, then he bowed for a long time, then he stood for a long time that was shorter than the first time, then he bowed for a long time that was shorter than the first time. Then he prostrated for a long time, then he sat up, then he prostrated for a long time that was shorter than the first time. Then he stood up and bowed twice again, doing the same again. Then he prostrated twice, doing the same again, until he had finished his prayer. Then he said: ‘The sun and the moon are two of the signs of Allah (SWT), and they do not become eclipsed for the death or birth of anyone. If you see that then hasted to remember Allah (SWT) and pray.'”

“The sun eclipsed during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he rushed out, dragging his cloak until he came to the masjid. He continued leading us in prayer until the eclipse ended. When it ended, he said: ‘People claim that the eclipse of the sun and moon only happen when a great man dies, but that is not so. Eclipses of the sun and the moon do not happen for the death or birth of anyone, but they are signs from Allah (SWT), the Mighty and Sublime. When Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, manifests Himself to anything of His creation, it humbles itself before Him, so if you see that then pray like the last obligatory prayer you did before that.'”

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘On the night on which I was taken on the Night Journey, I passed by Musa and he was praying in his grave.’

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to pray for a long time at night. If he started to pray standing, he would bow standing and if he started to pray sitting, he would bow sitting.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to pray witr with five and seven rak’ahs which he did not separate with any taslim nor talk.”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to recite in witr: “Glorify the Name of Your Lord, the Most High;’ and “Say: O you disbelievers!’; and ‘Say: He is Allah, (the) One.” And after he had said the salam, he would say: Subhanal-Malikil-Quddus (Glory be to the Sovereign, the Most Holy) raising his voice the third time.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: ‘O Abdullah do not be like so-and-so; he used to pray Qiyam Al-Lail and then he stopped.'”

“When dawn came, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would not pray anything but two brief rak’ahs.”

“The believer dies with sweat on his forehead.”

“My father told me: I witnessed the funeral of ‘Abdur-Rahamn bin Samurah. Ziyad came out, walking in front of the bier, and some men from the family of ‘Abdur-Rahman and their freed slaves came out, facing the bier and walking backward, saying: ‘Slow down, slow down, may Allah bless you.’ And they were walking slowly. Then when they were partway to Al-Mrbad, Abu Bakrah joined us on his mule. When he saw what they were doing, he rushed to them on his mule, brandishing his whip, and said: ‘Move on, for by the One Who honored the face of Abu Al-Qasim, I remember when we were with the Messenger of Allah, we were walking fast, so the people speeded up.”‘

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘When you see a funeral, stand up, and whoever follows it, let him not sit down until (the body) is placed (in the grave).”

“The Messenger of Allah was asked about he children of the idolators and he said: ‘Allah knows best what they would have done.”‘

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Eat Sahur, for in Sahur there is blessing.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Eat Sahur, for in Sahur there is blessing.” (Hasan) Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasai) said: In this narration of Yahya bin Saeed, its chain is Hasan but it is Munkar, and I fear that the error is from Muhammad bin Fudail.

“U never saw the Messenger of Allah fast two consecutive months, but he used to join shaban to Ramadan.” ‘

“One of us (women) would miss some fasts in Ramadan and she would not be able to make it up until Shaban began, and the Messenger of Allah did not fast in any month as he fasted in Shaban; he used to fast all of it, except a little, he used to fast all of it.” ‘

the Messenger of Allah fasted while traveling until he reached Qudaid, then he called for a cup of milk and drank and broke his fast; he and his Companions.

“I used to fast continually at the time of the Messenger of Allah. I said: ‘O continually while traveling.’ He said: ‘If you wish then fast, and if you wish then do not fast.”‘

“The Messenger of Allah enjoined Zakatul-Fitr, a Sa’ of dates or a Sa of barley, upon the free person and the slave, male and female, young and old, among the Muslims. He commanded that it be given before the people went out to the (‘fd) prayer.”

“There are four whom Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, hates: The vendor who sells his wares by means of false oaths, the poor man who shows off, the old man who commits Zina and the Imam who is unjust.”

“A man from Khath’am came to the Messenger of Allah and said: ‘My father is an old man who cannot ride, and the command of Allah to perform Hajj has come. Will it be good enough if I perform Hajj on his behalf?’ He said: ‘Are you the oldest of his children?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘Don’t you think that if he owed a debt you would pay it off?, He’ said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘then perform Hajj on his behalf.”'(Daif)

That the Messenger of Allah used to send sheep as a Hadi,

he gave the Messenger of Allah an onager when he was in Al-Abwa or in Waddan, but the Messenger of Allah gave it back to him. “And when the Messenger of Allah saw the expression on my face he said: “We only gave it back to you because we are in Ihram.'”

“Abdullah bin Abu Qatadah said that his father told him, that he went out with the Messenger of Allah on the campaign of Al-Hudaybiyah. He said: ‘They entered Ihram for ‘Umrah apart from me. I hunted an onager and fed my companions with it, when they were in Ihram. Then, I went to the Messenger of Allah and told him that we had some of it meat left over. HE said: Eat, and they were in Ihram.'”.

“I was with Ibn Abbas in Arafat and he said: ‘Why do I not hear the people reciting Talbiyah?’ I said: They are afraid of Muawiyah.’ So Ibn Abbas went out of his tent and said: “Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik, Labbaik! They are only forsaking the Sunnah out of hatred for Ali.'”

“O Shaikh, tell me of a Hadith that you heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).” (He said: “Yes; I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)) say: ‘The first of people for whom judgment will be passed on the Day of Resurrection are three. A man who was martyred. He will be brought and Allah will remind him of His blessings and he will acknowledge them. He will say: What did you do with them? He will say: I fought for Your sake until I was martyred. He will say: You are lying. You fought so that it would be said that so-and-so is brave, and it was said. Then He will order that he be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire. And (the second will be) a man who acquired knowledge and taught others,and read Qur’an. He will be brought, and Allah will remind him of His blessings, and he will acknowledge them. He will say: What did you do with them? He will say: I acquired knowledge and taught others, and read the Qur’an for Your sake. He will say: You are lying. You acquired knowledge so that it would be said that you were a scholar; and you read Qur’an so that it would be said that you were a reciter, and it was said. Then He will order that he be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire. And (the third will be) a man whom Allah made rich and gave him all kinds of wealth. He will be brought and Allah will remind him of His blessings, and he will acknowledge them. he will say: What did you do with them? He will say: I did not leave any way that You like wealth to be spent – Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasa’i) said: I did not understand “what You like” as I wanted to – “but I spent it.” He will say: “You are lying. You spent it so that it would be said that he was generous, and it was said.” Then he will order that he be dragged on his face and thrown into the Fire.'” That is, he did not hear or understand what came after it as well as he wanted to, but it was similar to what follows regarding the spending. Similar was stated by Shaikh ‘Abdur-Rahman Al-punjani in his notes on the text, according to Al-Funjani in his commentary At-Ta’iqat As-Salafiyyah (2:51)

It was narrated from ‘Alqamah and Al-Aswad that ‘Abdullah said: “The Messenger of Allah said to us: ‘Whoever among you can afford it, let him get married, and whoever cannot then he should fast, for it will be a restraint (wija’) for him.'” Abu Abdur-Rahman said: (The mention of) Al-Aswad in this hadith is not preserved.

It was narrated from ‘Urwah, that ‘Aishah said: “The Messenger of Allah married me in Shawwal and my marriage was consummated in Shawwal.” –‘Aishah liked for her women’s marriages to be consummated in Shawwal –“and which of his wives was more beloved to him than me?”

“A previously married woman has more right to decide about herself (with regard to marriage) than her guardian, and an orphan girl should be consulted, and her permission is her silence.”

“I heard ‘Aishah say: The Messenger of Allah said: ‘What becomes unlawful (for marriage) through breast-feeding is that which becomes unlawful through birth.'”

“The Messenger of Allah gave his wives the choice but that was not a divorce.”

“I asked Anas bin Malik about that, as I thought that he had knowledge of that.

He was the first one who engaged in the procedure of Li’an. The Messenger of Allah conducted the procedure of Li’an between them, then he said: “Look and see, if she produces a child who is white, with straight hair and Qadiy’a eyes, then he belongs to Hilal bin Umayyah, and if she produces a child who has dark lines around his eyes, curly hair and narrow calves, then he belongs to Sharik bin As-Sahma’.” I was told that she produced a child who has dark lines around his eyes, curly hair and narrow calves.'”

“The Messenger of Allah forbade ‘Umra and Ruqba.” I said: “What is Ruqba?” He said: “When one man says to another: ‘This belongs to you for the rest of your life.’ But if you do that, it is permissible.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Umra (a lifelong gift) belongs to the one to whom it was given; it belongs to him and to his heirs, and is inherited by those among his descendants who inherit from him.'”

“Abu Salamah bin ‘Abdur-Rahman narrated to me, that Jabir told him: ‘The Messenger of Allah ruled that whoever gives a lifelong gift to a man, it belongs to him and to his heirs. It belongs to the one to whom it was given, on the basis of ‘Umra. It will be inherited from its recipient according to Allah’s (injunctions on) inheritance and its rights.'”

He (the prophet) said: ‘Go, but if you kill him, you will be like him. So he took him out, and they called out to him: Didn’t you hear what the Messenger of Allah said?’ So he came back and he said: ‘If I kill him will I be like him?’ He said: ‘Yes.

Ayyub said: Kathir then came to us; so I asked him (about this matter). He replied: I never narrated it. I mentioned it to Qatadah who said: Yes (he narrated it) but he forgot.

What did you intend? He said: A single utterance of divorce. He said: Do you swear by Allah? He replied: I swear by Allah. He said: It stands as you intended.

He said: No. I said: ‘What is the Muqabalah ?’ He replied: ‘It has been cut from the back of its ear.’ I said: ‘What about the Sharqa’? He replied: ‘The ear has been split.’ I said: ‘What about the Kharqa’? He replied: ‘A hole is made (in its ears) as a distinguishing mark.'”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: He who has in his heart as much pride as much pride as grain of mustard-seed will not enter paradise.

Tell me about this prayer: Is it obligatory or supererogatory? He said: It is obligatory; it is the prayer performed by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). I did not make a mistake except in one thing that I forgot.

I said: Who acquainted me with it and its inhabitants? (Anas said:) This is the land of the people whom oppression and envy destroyed.

“On the Day of Al-Khandaq (the battle of the Trench), Umar bin Al-Khattab came cursing the disbelievers of Quraish and said: ‘O Allah’s Messenger!

That the Prophet (ﷺ) ransomed two men for the Muslims with a man from the idolaters. This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. The paternal uncle of Abu Al-Muhallab’s name is ‘Abdur Rahman bin ‘Amr, and they also say it was Muhawiyah bin ‘Amr. And Abu Qilabah’s name is ‘Abdullah bin Zaid Al-Jarmi (narrator in the chain) This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet(ﷺ) and others. It is for the Imam to decide to be generous with whom he wills among the captives, or to kill whom he wills among them, or to ransom whom he wills among them. Some of the people of knowledge preferred killing over ransoming. Al-Awzai’ said: “It has been conveyed to me. that this Ayah is abrogated: Thereafter (is the time) either for generosity (to free them without ranson) or ransom (47:4). It was abrogated by: Kill them wherever you find them (2:191). This was narrated to us by Hannad (who said): “Ibn Al-Mubarak narrated to us, from Al-Awza’i.” Ishaq bin Mansur said: “I said to Ahmad: ‘When the captives are captured’ is killing or ransoming better to you?’ He said: ‘If they are able to ransom’ then there is no harm in it. And if they kill, then I do not know of any harm in it.'” Ishaq said: “Wiping them out is better to me, unless it is someone well-known, so that it is hoped that a large amount will be obtained for him.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent us with an army and said: ‘If you see so-and-so, and so-and-so’ referring to two men from the Quraish: ‘then burn them with fire.’ Then, upon our departure, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘I ordered you to burn so-and-so, and so-and-so with fire, and indeed, none punishes with fire except Allah. So if you see them, then kill them.'” There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Abbas and Hamzah bin ‘Amr Al-Aslami. The Hadith of Abu Hurairah is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge. In this Hadith, Muhammad bin Ishaq mentioned a man (narrating) between Sulaiman bin Yasar and Abu Hurairah. Others reported this Hadith the same as Al-Laith reported it(here, without a man between them). The narration of Al-Laith bin Sa’d is more appropriate and more correct.

“On the day of the Conquest, the Prophet (ﷺ) entered Makkah, and he was wearing a black ‘Imamah.” THere are narrations on this topic from ‘Ali, ‘Amr bin Huraith, Ibn ‘Abbas, Rukanah. The Hadith is Jabir is Hasan Sahih Hadith.

That Ibn ‘Umar said: “When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would wear an ‘Imamah would hang between his shoulders.” Nafi’ said: “Ibn ‘Umar would hang his ‘Imamah between his shoulders.” ‘Ubaidullah said: “And I saw Al-Qasim and Salim doing that.” This Hadith is Hasan Gharib. And there is something on this topic from ‘Ali. And this Hadith of ‘Ali about this is not correct due to its chain.

“My nose was severed on the Day of Al-Kulab during Jahiliyyah. So I got a nose of silver which caused an infection for me, so the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordered me to get a node made of gold.”

That he said: “O Messenger of Allah! We live in a land of the People of Book and we cook in their containers, and drink in their vessels.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “If you do not find other than them, then rinse them with water.” The he said: “O Messenger of Allah! We live in a land of game, so what should we do ?” He said: “When you send your trained dog, and you mentioned the Name of Allah, and he kills it, then eat it. And when you shoot it with your bow, and it is killed, then eat it.'” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

“I entered upon Abu Musa while he was eating chicken, and he said: ‘Sit and eat, for indeed I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) eating it.'” This Hadith is Hasan.

‘A slave (of Allah) shall not believe until he believes in Al-Qadar, its good and its bad, such that he knows that what struck him would not have missed him, and that what missed him would not have struck him.”

” Six are cursed, being cursed by Allah and by every Prophet that came: The one who adds to Allah’s Book, the one who denies Allah’s Qadar, the one who rules with tyranny by which he honors whom Allah has debased, and he dishonors whom Allah has honored, and the one who legalizes what Allah forbade, and the one from my family who legalizes what Allah forbade, and the abandoner of my Sunnah.”

“We sought permission from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) for writing but he did not permit us.”
