“I would drink when I was menstruating, then I would hand it to the Prophet (ﷺ), and he would put his mouth where mine had been and drink. And I would nibble at a bone on which some bits of meat were left when I was menstruating, then I would give it to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he would put his mouth where my mouth had been.”

I saw him get up to relieve himself and he went to the waterskin and undid its string, then he performed wudu and that was moderate (in the amount of water used). Then he went to his bed and slept. Then he got up again and went to the waterskin and undid its string, and performed wudu again, like the first time. Then he stood and prayed, and when he prostrated he said: ‘Allahummaj’al fi qalbi nuran waj’al fi sami’ nuran waj’al fi basri nuran, waj’al min tahti nuran waj’al min fawqi nuran, wa ‘an yamii nuran wa ‘an yasari nuran waj’al amami nuran, waj’al khalfi nuran wa a’zimli nura (O Allah, place light in my heart, and place light in my hearing, and place light in my seeing, and place light beneath me, and place light above me, and light on my right, and light on my left, and place light behind me, and make the light greater for me.’) Then he slept until he started to snore, then Bilal came and woke him up for the prayer.”

When he says the takbir, then say the takbir; when he says : “Wa lad-dallin” then say “Amin” and Allah (SWT) will answer you. Then when he says the takbir and bows, then say the takbir and bow, for the Imam bows before you and stands up before you.’ The Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) said: “This makes up for that. When he says: ‘Sami’ Allahu liman hamidah (Allah hears the one who praises Him),’ say: ‘Allahumma, Rabbana wa lakal-hamd (O Allah, our Lord, to You be praise),’ Allah will hear you, for indeed Allah (SWT), the Mighty and Sublime, has said on the tongue of His Prophet: “Allah hears the one who praises Him.” Then when he says the takbir and prostrates, say the takbir and prostrate, for the Imam prostrates before you and rises before you.’ The Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘This makes up for that. Then when you are sitting, let the following be among what one of you says: At-tahiyyatu lillahi wasalawatu wat-tayibaat, as-salamu ‘alaika ayah-Nabiyyu wa rahmatAllahi wa baraktuhu. As-salamu ‘alaina a ‘ala ibad illahis-salihin, ashadu an la ilaha ill Allah, wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan ‘abduhu wa rasuluhu. (All compliments, prayers and pure words are due to Allah. Peace be upon you O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Peace be upon us and upon the righteous slaves of Allah. I bear witness that that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and messenger.)”

Whether you ask forgiveness for them (hypocrites) or ask no forgiveness for them.” So he offered the (funeral) prayer for him. Then Allah, Most High, revealed: ‘And never pray (funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies, nor stand at his grave.’ So he stopped offering the (funeral) prayer for them.”

the Messenger of Allah put two men from those who had been slain in Uhud in one shrud, then he would ask which of them had learned more Qur’an and when one of them was pointed out, he would put him in the Lahd (grave) first. He said: “I am a witness to these.” And he ordered that they be buried with their blood, and that the funeral prayer should not be offered, and they should not be washed.

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

“Al-Fadl bin ‘Abbas was riding behind the Messenger of Allah when a woman from Khath’am came and asked him a question.

And you have the best examples in the Messenger of Allah.'”

Will there be anyone who will be called from all these gates?” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Yes, and I hope that you will be one of them.”

It was narrated from ‘Aishah that the Messenger of Allah married her when she was six years old, and consummated the marriage with her when she was nine.

Then if he wants to divorce her when she is pure and before he touches her (has intercourse with her), then that is divorce at the prescribed time as Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has revealed.'” ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar said: “So I took her back, but I still counted the divorce that I had issued to her.”

“The wife of Rifa’ah Al-Qurazi came to the Prophet when Abu Bakr was with him, and she said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! I was married to Rifa’ah Al-Qurazi and he divorced me, and made it irrevocable. Then I married ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Az-Zabir, and by Allah, O Messenger of Allah, what he has is like this fringe;’ and she held up a fringe of her Jilbab. Khalid bin Sa’eed was at the door and he did not let him in. He said: ‘O Abu Bakr?

They will kill the Muslims and leave the idol-worshippers alone. If I live to see them, I will kill them as the killing of ‘Ad.'”

“I heard Abu Al-Ahwas (narrate) that ‘Abdullah said: ‘Defaming a Muslim is evildoing and fighting him is Kufr.'” So Aban said to him: “O Abu Ishaq! You heard it only from Abu Al-Ahwas?” He said: “Rather, I heard it from Al-Aswad and Hubairah.”

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. Forgive him.’ Then he went out, dragging his string, until he disappeared from our view.”

The Prophet ruled that a slave be given (as Diyah) for her fetus and that she be killed (for killing the other woman).”

The Messenger of Allah ruled that the Diyah was to be paid by the ‘Asabah of the killer, and that a slave should be given (as diyah) for the child in her womb.

The Prophet said: “The best of prayers for forgiveness is for a person to say: ‘Allahumma, anta rabbi, la ilaha illa anta, khalaqtani wa ana ‘abduka, wa ana ‘ala ‘ahdika wa wa’dika mastata’tu, a’udhu bika min sharri ma sana’tu, abuw’u laka bidhanbi, wa abuw’u laka bini’matika ‘alayya faghfirli, fa innahu la yaghfirudh-dhunuba illa anta (O Allah, You are my Lord, there is no god but You. You have created me and I am Your slave and I am keeping my promise and covenant to You as much as I can. I seek refuge with You from the evil of what I do. I acknowledge Your blessing and I acknowledge my sin, so forgive me, for there is none who can forgive sin except You.)’ If he says this in the morning, believing in it firmly, and dies on that day before evening comes, he will enter Paradise, and if he says it in the evening, believing firmly in it, and dies before morning comes, he will enter Paradise.” Al-Walid bin Tha’labah contradicted him.

Rabba na lakal-hamd, mil’as-samawati wa mil’al-ardi wa mil’a ma bainahuma wa mil’a ma shi’ia min shay’in ba’d) ‘Allah listens to those who praise Him. O our Lord! And to You is the praise that fills the heavens and fills the earth, and fills what is between them, and fills whatever there is beyond that You will.’ He said: There are narrations on this topic from Ibn Umar, Ibn Abbas, Ibn Abi Awfa, Abu Juhaifa, and Abu Sa’eed.

“When Allah’s Messenger sat for the first two Rak’ah it was as if he was on hot stones.” Shu’bah (one of the narrators) said: “Then Sa’d’s lips moved (saying) something. So I said: ‘Until he stood?’ He said: ‘Until he stood.'”

“I said to Bilal: ‘How did the Prophet (S) reply to them when they gave him Salams and he was performing Salat?’ He said: ‘He would motion with his hand.'”

“The Prophet (S) prayed five (Rakah) for Zuhr, so it was said to him: ‘Has the prayer been added to, or have you merely forgotten?’ So he (S) performed two prostrations after he had said the Salam.”

“Whoever is regular with twelve Rak’ah of Sunnah (prayer), Allah will build a house for him in Paradise: Four Rak’ah before Zuhr, two Rak’ah after it, two Rak’ah after Maghrib, two Rak’ah after Isha, and two Rak’ah before Fajr.”

Allah’s Messenger (S) said: “The two Rak’ah of Fajr are better than the world and what is in it.”

“Allah’s Messenger (S) would pray four Rak’ah before Al-Asr separating between them with At-Taslim upon the angels that are close (to Allah) and those who follow them among the Muslims and the believers.”

Allah’s Messenger (S) said: “Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, descends to the earth’s heaven every night when the first third of the night has passed. He says: “I am the Sovereign. Is there any who calls upon Me so that I may respond to him? Is there any who asks of Me that I may give him? Is there any who seeks forgiveness from Me so that I may forgive him?’ He continues in that until the illumination of Al-Fajr.”

Allah’s Messenger said: “Whoever sleeps past Al-Witr or forgets it, then let him pray it when he remembers it or when he awakens.”

Allah’s Messenger said: “When Fajr begins, then every Salat of the night and Al-Witr have gone, so perform Al-Witr before Fajr begins.”

“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 to me: ‘Whoever performs Ghusl on Friday, and bathes completely, and goes early, arriving early, gets close and listens and is silent, there will be for him in every step he take the reward of a year of fasting and standing (in prayer).'”

“We asked Ali about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah during the day. He said: ‘You will not be able to do that.’ We said: ‘Whoever among is able (he will)?’ So he said: ‘When the sun appeared over there (east) like it appears here (west) at Asr, the Messenger of Allah would pray two Rak’ah, and when the sun appeared over there (east) like it appears here (west) at Zuhr, he would pray four Rak’ah. And he would pray four before Zuhr and two after it, and four before Asr separating between every two Rak’ah with At-Taslim upon the angels that are close (to Allah) and those who follow them among the believers, and the Muslims.”

“A man asked Abdullah bin Mas’ud about this phrase: ‘Ghairi asin’ or is it Yasin? So he said: ‘You can recite all of the Quran besides this ?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘Indeed a people recite it, disbursing it like Ad-Daqqa are dispersed, without it passing their throats. Indeed I am aware of the surahs that are comparable which the Messenger of Allah would recite together.'” He said: “So we told Alqamah to ask him (what they were). He said: “Twenty surahs from the Mufassal from which the Prophet would combine, reciting every two Surah in a Rak’ah.'”

the Prophet said: “When a man performs Wudu and he performs his Wudu well, then he leaves to the Salat, and he did not leave – or he said: He had no urge – except for it, then there is not one step that he takes except that Allah raises him a degree from it, or removes a sin from him for it. “

“The Prophet sent me to Yemen and ordered me to collect a Tabi or a Tabi’ah on every thirty cows, a Musinnah on every forty, a Dinar for every Halim, or its equivalent of Ma’afir.”Abu Eisa said: This Hadith is Hasan. Some of them reported this Hadith from Sufyan, from Al-A’mash, from Abu Wa’il, from Masruq: “The Prophet sent Mu’adh to Yemen and ordered him to take…” and this is more authentic

Zainab, the wife of Abdullah narrated similarly from the Prophet.

“Sahl bin Abi Hathmah came to a gathering of ours, and he narrated that the Messenger of Allah would say: “When you make an assessment, then take it and leave a third, if you do not leave a third, then leave a quarter.”

Yahya bin Adam narrated to us, Sufyan narrated this Hadith to us from Hakim bin Jubair. So Abdullah bin Uthman, the companion of Shu’bah said to him (Sufyan): “If only someone besides Hakim had narrated this (Hadith).” Sufyan said to him, “So what is with Hakim; Shu’bah would not narrate from him?” He said: “Yes.” So Sufyan said: “I heard Zubaid narrating this from Muhammad bin Abdur-Rahman bin Yazid.”

“We would give Zakat Al-Fitr – when the Messenger of Allah was among us – as a Sa of food, or a Sa of barely, or a Sa of dried dates, or a Sa of raisins, or a Sa of cheese. So we did not stop paying it (like that) until Mu’awiyah arrived in Al-Madinah and talked (about it). Among the things he addressed the people with, he said: ‘I see that two Mudd of the wheat of Ash-Sham are equal to a Sa of dried dates.’ So the people followed that.” Abu Sa’eed said: “I will not stop giving it in the manner that I had been giving it.”

Then he offered it to her and she drank it. Then she said: “O Messenger of Allah! I was fasting.” So the Messenger of Allah said: “The one fasting a voluntary fast is the trustee for himself; if he wishes he fasts, and if he wishes he breaks.” Shu’bah (one of the narrators) said: “I said to him (Ja’dah), ‘Did you hear this from Umm Hani?’ He said: ‘No Abu Salih and our family informed us of it from Umm Hani.'”

Be calmm.’ Then he came to Jama and performed the two Salat there combined. When the morning came, he went to Quzah and stood there and said: ‘This is Quzah, and it is a place of standing, and all of Jama is a place for standing.’ Then he departed until he arrived at Wadi Muhassir. Then he stuck his she-camel and she trotted until he passed the valley. Then he stopped and took Al-Fadl as a companion rider and went to the Jamrah to stone it.

Didn’t you prohibit (your followers) from crying?’ He said: ‘No. But I prohibited two foolish immoral voices: A voice during a calamity while clawing at one’s face and tearing one’s clothes, and Shaitan’s scream.'” And there is more that is stated in the Hadith.

“The Prophet, Abu Bakr, and Umar would walk in front of the funeral.” Az-Zuhri said: “Salim informed me that his father would walk in front of the funeral.”

From Abdullah bin Mas’ud who said: “We asked the Messenger of Allah about walking behind the funeral. He said: ‘Less than a trot. For if he was good, then you will be hastening him to it (goodness), and if he was evil, then it id only an inhabitant of the Fire that is being taken away.” The funeral is (to be) followed. The one who precedes it shall not have the reward of those who follow it.'”

“The Messenger of Allah prohibited plastering graves, writing on them, building over them, and treading on them.”

But when the believer is given the good news of Allah’s mercy, His pleasure, and His Paradise, then he loves to meet Allah and Allah loves to meet him.

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) cursed ten involved in wine: The one who presses it, the one who has it pressed, its drinker, its carrier, and the one it is carried to, its server, its seller, the consumption of its price, the one who purchases it and the one it was purchased for.” This Hadith is Gharib as a narration of Anas. Similar to this has been reported from Ibn ‘Abbas, Ibn Mas’ud, and Ibn ‘Umar, from the Prophet (ﷺ).

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.

“Whoever frees a portion” or, he said: “a part” or he said: “a share he owns of a slave, then he can afford the remainder of the price according to the reasonable price, then he will be free. Otherwise he has freed as much as he has freed (only).” Ayyub (one of the narrators) said: “Perhaps Nafi said in this Hadith: ‘Meaning he has freed as much of him as he has freed.'”

That his father gave a slave to a son of his. So he went to the Prophet (ﷺ) to have him witness it. He (ﷺ) said: ‘Have you given a gift similar to this one to all of your sons?’ He replied: ‘No’. So he said: ‘Then take him back.'”

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “There is no Fara’ or ‘Atirah.” The Fara’ is the first of the offspring that would be born to them, so they would slaughter it.

This Hadith of ‘Ubadah is a Hasan Hadith. This Hadith has also been reported from Abu Salam from a man among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ).

That the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Indeed a woman grants (assurances of protection) to a people” – meaning it is to be honored – “from the Muslims.” There is something on this topic from Umm Hani, and this Hadith is Hasan Gharib.

He said: ‘I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: “Whoever develops some gray hair in Islam, it shall be a light from him on the Day of Judgement.” There is something on this topic from Fadalah bin ‘Ubaid and ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr. The narration of Ka’b bin Murrah was reported like this from Al-A’mash, from ‘Amr bin Murrah. This Hadith is been reported from Mansur, from Salim bin Abu Al-Ja’d, and he included a man between him and between Ka’b bin Murrah in the chain.

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Indeed, Allah will surely admit three into Paradise by a single arrow. Its maker who seeks good by his making it, the one who shoots it, and the one who holds arrows for him.” And he said: “Practice archery and practice riding, and the you should practice archery is more beloved to me than that you should ride.

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).

While some of them reported it from Qatadah, from Sa’eed bin Abu Al-Hasan who said: “The hand-guard on the sword of Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was made from silver.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prohibited me from rings of gold, and from wearing Al-Qassi, and from reciting in the bowing and prostration positions, and from wearing what was dyed with ‘Usfur.” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

“I and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would perform Ghusl using (water from) the same vessel. He had hair reaching above his shoulders and below his earlobes.” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih Gharib. It has been reported from other routes that ‘Aishah said: “I and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would perform Ghusl using (water from) the same vessel.” And the following statement is not mentioned in it: “He had hair reaching above his shoulders [and below his earlobes’.” It was only mentioned by ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Az-Zinad, and he is trustworthy, a Hafiz, and Malik bin Anas stated that he was trustworthy and ordered recording (Ahadith) from him.

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prohibited riding (while sitting on) Miyathir.” There are narrations on this topic from ‘Ali and Mu’awiyah. The Hadith if Al-Bara’ is Hasan Sahih. Shu’bah reported similarly from Ash’ath bin Abi Ash-Sha’tha’ in the lengthy Hadith.

Some of them report this Hadith from Abu Tumailah, from ‘Abdul-Mu’min bin Khalid, from ‘Abdullah bin Buraidah, from his mother, from Umm Salamah. He said: I heard Muhammad bin Ism’ail saying: “The narration of Ibn Buraidah from his mother, from Umm Salamah is more correct, Abu Tumailah mentioned ‘his mother’ in it.”

“I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about eating badger. He said: ‘Does anyone eat badger?’ So I asked him about eating wolf’ He said: ‘Does anyone who has any good in him eat wolf?'” The chain for this Hadith is not strong. We do not know of it except as a narration of Isma’il bin Muslim from ‘Abdul-Karim Abi Umayyah. Some of the people of Hadith have criticized Isma’il and ‘Abdul Karim Abi Umayyah. And he is ‘Abdul-Karim bin Qais, who is Ibn Abi Al-Mukhariq. While ‘Abdul-Karim bin Malik Al-Jazari is trustworthy.

That ‘Ali said: “Eating garlic was prohibited except when cooked.”

“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! I stayed with a man who did not entertain me nor behave hospitably with me.

‘I asked the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W): What is the Sunnah regarding a man among the people of the Shirk who accepts Islam at the hand of a man among the Muslims?’ So the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) said: “He is the closet of the people to him in his life and in his death.'”

“The woman collects three inheritance: Whomever she freed, whomever she found, and the child for which she made Li’an.”

“I was ill during the year of the Conquest (of Makkah) with an illness bringing me to the brink of death. So The Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) came to visit me, and I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah (S.A.W)!

If you leave your heirs without need it is better than to leave them in poverty begging from the people. Indeed you do not do any spending (on your family) except that you are rewarded for it, even the morsel of food you raise to your wife’s mouth.'” He said: “I said: ‘Will I be left behind from my emigration?’ He said: ‘You will not be left behind after me,and do righteous deeds intending Allah’s Face, except that it will add to your elevation in rank.

The parable of you and the other nations is that you are like a mark on the foreleg of an animal, or a mole on the flank of a camel.’ Then he said: ‘I hope that you will be a quarter of the people of Paradise.’ They said: Allahu Akbar. Then he said: ‘I hope that you will be a third of the people of Paradise.’ They said: Allahu Akbar.

He recited it until he reached: ‘And the fifth; should be that the wrath of Allah be upon her if he speaks the truth.’ Then the Prophet (ﷺ) was saying: ‘Allah knows that one of you is a liar, so, will either of you repent?’ Then the woman got up and took the oaths, and when she was about to take the fifth one; That the wrath of Allah be upon her if he speaks the truth’, the people stopped her and said to her: ‘It will definitely bring about Allah’s curse upon you (if you are guilty).'” Ibn ‘Abbas said ‘So she hesitated, and recoiled so much so, that we thought that she would withdraw her denial. But she said: ‘I will not dishonor my family for the rest of their days.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) then said: ‘Watch her, if she delivers a child with eyes that appear to have Kuhl on them, big hips, and fat shins then it is Sharik bin Sahma’s child.’ (Later) she gave birth to a child fitting that description. So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘If it had not been settled in the Book of Allah , I would punish her severely.'”

He recited the Tashahhud and after praising and expressing gratitude to Allah, as He deserved, he said: ‘To proceed: O people! Give me your opinion regarding those people who made a forged story against my wife. By Allah, I do not know anything bad about her at all. By Allah, they accused her of being with a man about whom I have never known anything bad, and he never entered my house unless I was present there, and whenever I went on a journey, he went with me.’ Sa’d bin Mu’adh referring to Abu Bakr: ‘to give their kinsmen, the poor, and those who left their homes for Allah’s Cause.’ – meaning Mistah – up to His saying: Do you not love that Allah should forgive you?

He took off his garment, and put it on a rock, then he took a bath. When he had finished, he turned back to pick up his garment, but the rock moved away, taking his garment with it. Musa picked up his staff, and chased the rock saying: ‘My garment, O you rock! My garment, O you rock!’ Until he reached a group of the Children of Isra’il who saw him naked, and discovered that he was the best of those whom Allah had created.” He said: “The rock stood still, he took his garment and put it on. He started striking the rock with his staff, and by Allah, the marks of that beating were left on the rock; three, four, or five. This is what is referred to in the Ayah: ‘ O you who believe! Be not like those who annoyed Musa, but Allah freed him from what they had alleged, and he was honourable before Allah (33:69).'”

from the Prophet (ﷺ), that he said about this Ayah: ‘Then We gave the Book the as inheritance to such of Our worshipers whom We chose. Then of them are some who wrong themselves, and of them are some who follow a middle course, and of them are some who are, by Allah’s Leave, foremost in good deeds (35:32). He said: “All of these people are of the same rank, and all of them are in Paradise.”

“When (the following) was revealed: ‘O you who believe! When you consult the Messenger in private, spend something in charity before your private consultation.’ The Prophet said to me: ‘What do you think?

From Ibn Abbas who said: “Whoever has wealth, required him to perform Hajj to the House of his Lord, or upon which Zakat is obligatory, but he does not do it, then he shall ask to return (the world) upon his death.” A man said: “Oh Ibn Abbas! Have Taqwa of Allah! It is only the disbelievers who will be asked to return.” He said: “For that, I shall recite to you from the Qur’an: You who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah. And whosever does that, then they are with the losers. And spend of that which We have provided you before death comes to one of you, and says: “My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while, then I should give Sadaqah” up to His saying: “And Allah is All-Aware of what you do.” He said: “So what makes Zakat obligatory?” He said: “When wealth reaches two hundred or above.” He said: “What makes Hajj obligatory?” He said: “Provisions and a camel.” (Another chain) from Ad-Dahhak : from Ibn Abbas, from the Prophet with similar.

“Some people from the Jews said to some people among the Companions of the Prophet: ‘Does your Prophet know how many keepers are there in Jahannam?’ They said: ‘We do not know until we ask our Prophet and said: ‘O Muhammad! Your Companions were defeated today.’ He said: ‘In what were they defeated?’ He said: ‘Some Jews asked them if their Prophet knew how many keepers are there in Jahannam.’ He said: ‘So what did they say?’ He said: ‘They said: “We do not know until we ask our Prophet.” He said: ‘Are a people defeated who are asked about something that they do not know, merely because they said, “We do not know until we ask our Prophet?” Rather, there (people) did ask their Prophet, they said: “Show us Allah plainly.” I should ask the enemies of Allah about the Darmak.’ So when they came to him they said: ‘O Abul-Qasim! How many keepers are there in Jahannum?’ He said: ‘This and that many.’ One time ten, and one time nine. They said: ‘Yes.’ He said to them: ‘What is the dirt of Paradise?’” He said: “They were silent for a while, then they said: ‘Is it bread O Abul-Qasim?’ So the Prophet said: ‘The bread is made of Ad-Darmak.’”
