“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led us in praying ‘Asr in Al-Mukhammas. He said: ‘This prayer was enjoined upon those who came before you, but they neglected it. Whoever prays it regularly will have a two-fold reward, and there is no prayer after it until the Shahid appears.” And the Shahid is “the star.” This is a statement of one of the narrators, and Allah knows best.
“Salim told me that his father said: ‘I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), when he was in a hurry to travel, delaying Maghrib so that he could combine it with ‘Isha’.'”

He said: “Allahumma inni as’aluka ya Allah! Bi-annakal-Wahidul-Ahad us-Samad, alladhi lam yalid wa lam yowled, wa lam yakun lahu kufuwan ahad, an taghfirali dhunubi, innaka antal-Ghafurur-Rahim (O Allah, I ask of You, O Allah, as You are the One, the Only, the Self-Sufficient Master, Who begets not nor was He begotten, and there is None equal or comparable to Him, forgive me my sins, for You are the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.)” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “He has been forgiven,” three times.
“For every good deed that the son of Adam does, he will have (the reward of) ten the like thereof, except for fasting. It is for Me and I shall reward for it.

“Abu Umamah Al-Bahili narrated to me: ‘I said: O Messenger of Allah, tell me of something by which Allah will benefic me. He said: Take to fasting, for there is nothing like it.”‘
“This is the obligation of Sadaqah which the Messenger of Allah enjoined upon the Muslims, as Allah , the Mighty and Sublime, commanded the Messenger of Allah .Whoever is asked for it in the manner explained (in the letter of Abu Bakar), let him give it, and whoever is asked for more than that, let him not give it. When there are less than twenty-five camels, for every five camels, one sheep (is to be given). If the number reaches twenty five, then a Bint Makhad (a one-year old she-camel) is due, up to thirty-five. If a Bint Makhad is not available, then a Bin Labun (a two-year old male camel). If the number reaches thirty-six, then a Bint Labun (a two-yer-old she-camel) is due, up to forty-five. If the number reaches forty-six, then a Hiqqqah (a three-year-old she-camel) that has been bred from a stallion camel is due, up to sixty. If the number reaches sixty-one, then a Jadhah (a four-year-old she-camel) is due, up to seventy-six, then two Bint Labuns (two-year-old she-camels0 are due, up to ninety. If the number reaches ninety-one, then two Hiqqahs (three-year-old she-camels) that have been bred from stallion camels are due, up to one hundred and twenty. If there are more than one hundred and twenty, then for every forty a Bint Labun, and for every fifty a Hiqqah. In the event that a person does not have a camel of the age specified according to the Hiaqah regulations, then if a person owes a Jadhah as Sadaqah but he does not have a Jadhah, then a Hiqqah should be accepted from him, and he should give two sheep along with it if they are available, or twenty Dirhams, If he owes a Hiqqah as Sadaqah and he does not have Hiqqah but he has a Jadhah, then if should be accepted from him, and the Zakah collector should give him twenty Dirhams, or two sheep if they are available. If a person owes a Hiqqah as Sadaqah and he does not have one, but he has a Bint Labun, it should be accepted from him, and he should give two sheep along with it if they are available, or twenty Dirhams. If a person owes a Bint Labun as Sadaqah but he only has a Hiqaah, then it should be accepted from him and the Zakah collector should give him twenty Dirhams, or two sheep. If a person owes a Bint Labun as Sadaqah but he only has a Bint Makhad, then it should be accepted from him, and he should be accepted from him, and he should give two sheep along with it if they are available, or twenty Dirhams. If a person owes a Bint Makhad as Sadaqah but he only has a Bint Labun, a male; it should be accepted from him, and he does not have to give anything else along with it. If a person has only four camels he does not have to give anything unless their owner wants to. With regard to the Sadaqah on grazing sheep, if there are forty, then one sheep is due upon them, up to one hundred and twenty. If there is one more, then two sheep are due, up to two hundred. If there is one more, then three sheep are due, up to three hundred. If there are more than that, then for every hundred, one sheep is due. No feeble, defective or male sheep should be taken as Sadaqah unless the Zakah collector wishes. Do not combine separate flocks or separate combined flocks for fear of Sadaqah. Each partner (who has a share in a combined flock) should pay the Sadaqah in proportion to his shares. If a man’s flock is one less than forty sheep, then nothing is due from them, unless their owner wishes. With regard to silver, one-quarter of one-tenth, and if there are only one hundred and ninety Dirhams, no Zakah is due unless the owner wishes.”
“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘(On the Day of Resurrection) camels will come to their owner in the best state of health that they ever had (in this world) and if he did not pay what was due on them, they will trample him with their hooves. Sheep willcome to their owner in the best state of health that they ever had (in this world) and if he did not pay what was due on them, they will trample him with their cloven hooves and gore him with their horns. And among their rights are that they should be milked with water in the front of them. I do not want any one of you to come on the Day of Resurrection with a groaning camel on his neck, saying , O Muhammad, and I will say: I cannot do anything for you, I conveyed the message. I do not want any one of you to come on the Day of Resurrection with a bleating sheep on his neck, saying, “O Muhammad,” and I will say: “I cannot do anything for you, I conveyed the message.” And on the Day of Resurrection the hoarded treasure of one of you will be a blad-headed Shujaafrom which its owner will flee, but it will chase him (saying), I am your hoarded treasure, and it will keep (chasing him) until he gives it his finger to swallow.”‘
“No Sadaqah is due on grains or dates unless the amount reaches five Awauq, nor on less than five Dhawd, nor on less than five Awaq.”

“Whoever spends on a pair (of things) in the cause of Allah, he will be called in Paradise: ‘O slave of Allah, here is prosperity.’ Whoever is one of those who pray, he will be called from the gate of Paradise. Whoever is one of those who participated in Jihad, he will be called from the gate of Paradise. Whoever is one of those who fast, he will be called from the gate of Ar-Rayyan.” Abu Bakr As-Siddiq said: “O Messenger of Allah! No distress, or need will befall the one who is called from those gates. 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.”
“We set out as pilgrims and came to Al-Madinah intending to perform Hajj. While we were in our camping place unloading our mounts, someone came to us and said: ‘The people have gathered in the Masjid and there is panis.’ So we set out and found the people gathered around a group in the middle of the Masjid, among whom were ‘Ali, Zubayr, Talhah and Sa’d bin Abi Waqas. While we were like that, ‘Uthman, may Allah be pleased with him, came, wearing a yellow cloak with which he had covered his head. He said: ‘Is Talhah here? Is Az-Zubair here? Is Sa’d here?’ They said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘I adjure you be the One beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, din’t the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Whoever buys the Mirbad of Banu so-and so, Allah will forgive him, and I bought it for twenty or twenty-five thousand, then I came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and told him, and he said: Add it to our Masjid and the reward for it will be yours?’ They said: ‘By Allah, yes.’ He said: ‘I adjure you by the One beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, didn’t the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Whoever buys the well of Rumah, Allah will forgive him, so I bought it for such and such and amount, then I came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and told him, and he said: Give it to provide water for the Muslims, and the reward for it will be yours?’ They said: ‘By Allah, yes.’ He said: ‘I adjure you by the One beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, didn’t the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Whoever equips these (men)- meaning the army of Al-‘Usrah (Tabuk) – Allah will forgive him, so I equipped them until they were not lacking even a rope or a bridle?’ They said: ‘By Allah, yes.’ He said: ‘O Allah, bear witness, O Allah, bear witness, O Allah, bear witness.'” Mirbad: A place for drying dates.
a Bedouin pledged Islam to the Messenger of Allah, then the Bedouin was stricken with the fever in Al-Madinah. So he came to the Messenger of Allah and said: “O Messenger of Allah, cancel my pledge,” but he refused. Then he came to him again and said: “Cancel my pledge,” but he refused. Then he came to him again and said: “Cancel my pledge,” but he refused. Then the Bedouin left (Al-Madinah) and the Messenger of Allah sadi: “Al-Madinah his like the bellows; it expels its dross and brightness its good.
‘Uqabah bin Amir Al Juhani said “I heard the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) recite when he was on the pulpit “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power. Beware, strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting.”

You will then return and alight in a meadow with mounds and one of the Christians will raise the cross and say: The cross has conquered. One of the Muslims will become angry and smash it, and the Byzantines will act treacherously and prepare for the battle.

I looked and saw that he was the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).
“I saw the Prophet when he performed Wudu, he wiped his face with the edge of his garment.” Abu Eisa said: This Hadith is gharib, and its chain is weak. Rishdin bin Sa’d and Abdur- Rahman bin Ziyad bin An’um Al Ifriqi are weak in Hadith. Some people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet and those after them, permitted using a towel after Wudu. Those who disliked it, only disliked it from the view of the saying: “Wudu is weighed.” That as reported from Sa’eed bin Al- Musayyab and Az-Zuhri. Muhammad bin Humaid narrated to us, Jarir narrated to us, he said: Ali bin Mujahid narrated to me, and he is trustworthy to me, from me, from: Tha’labah from Az-Zuhri, he said: “The towel is only disliked after Wudu because Wudu is weighed.”

If he wanted to depart before Maghrib he would delay Maghrib until he prayed it with Isha, and if he wanted to depart after Maghrib he would hasten Isha so that he would pray it along with Maghrib.”
‘Mu’adh bin Jabal would pray Al-Maghrib with the Messenger of Allah, then he would return to his people to lead them (in prayer).”

“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
Mu’adh had written to the Prophet to ask him about greens – which is “herbs” – so he (pbuh) said, “There is nothing due on them.”

He said: ‘The best among you is the best in repaying.'” He said: There is something on this topic from Abu Rafi’. The Hadith of Abu Hurairah is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. Shu’bah and Sufyan reported it from Salamah. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge, they saw no harm is taking a camel of a particular age as a loan. This is the view of Ash-Shafi’i, Ahmad, and Ishaq. But some of them disliked that.
“A man behaved in a rude manner while trying to collect a debt from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). So his Companions were about to harm him.

So he said: ‘Buy it and give it to him. For indeed the best of you is the best in repaying.'”
“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)
“Fatimah came to Abu Bakr and said: ‘Who will inherit from you?’ He said: ‘My family and my son.’ She said: ‘So what about me? I do not get inheritance from my father?’ So Abu Bakr said: ‘I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: ‘We are not inherited from’ but I support those whom the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to support, and I spend upon those whom the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) spent upon.” There are narrations on this topic from ‘Umar, Talhah, Az-Zubair, ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Awf, Sa’d and ‘Aishah. The Hadith of Abu Hurairah is Hasan Gharib from this route. It is only reported with a chain by Hammad bin Salamah and ‘Abdul Wahhab bin ‘Ata, from Muhammad bin ‘Amr, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurairah. I asked Muhammad about this Hadith and he said: “No one is known to have reported it from Muhammad bin ‘Amr, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurairah except from Hammad bin Salamah. ‘Abdul Wahhab bin ‘Ata reported it from Muhammad bib ‘Amr, from Abu Salamah, and from Abu Hurairah and it is similar to the narration of Hammad bin Salamah.

If a camel gets mangy glands and we leave it at the resting place of camels, then all of the camels get mange?’ The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: ‘Who caused the first to get mange? There is no ‘Adwa nor safar. Allah created every soul, so he wrote its life, its provision, and its afflictions.'” Note: The majority of scholars interpret this to mean that these things in and of themselves do not transmit or cause harm through supernatural or hidden means but that Allah is ultimately in control and any fearful superstition around these is false.
“I was with the caravan of those who stopped with the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) at a dead lamb. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: ‘Do you think that this was insignificant to its owners when they threw it away?’ They said:’Yes! It is because of its insignificance that they threw it away O Messenger of Allah!’ He said: ‘The world is more insignificant to Allah than this to its owners.'”

(You pray) for Allah’s enemy ‘Abdullah bin Ubayy, who on this day said this and that” – mentioning different days. He said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was smiling until I had said too much to him and he said: ‘Leave me O ‘Umar! Indeed I have been given the choice, so I chose. I was told: Whether you ask forgiveness for them, or do not ask for forgiveness for them. Even though you ask for their forgiveness seventy times, Allah will not forgive them (9:80). If I knew that were I to ask more than seventy times that he would be forgiven, then I would do so.” He said: “Then he performed the Salat for him and walked with him (his funeral procession) and he stood at his grave until it was finished. I was amazed at myself and my daring to talk like that to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), while Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ) know better. But by Allah! It was not long until these two Ayat were revealed: ‘And never pray for any of them who dies nor stand at his grave… (9:84) until the end of the Ayah.
