Sahih al-Bukhari — Medicine

`Abdullah bin `Umar said, “The Prophet (ﷺ) said, ‘Fever is from the heat of Hell, so put it out (cool it) with water.’ ” Nafi` added: `Abdullah used to say, “O Allah! Relieve us from the punishment,” (when he suffered from fever).

‘That is not menstruation, rather it is a kick in the womb, so let her work out the length of the menses that she used to have, and stop praying (for that period of tie), then after that period of time), then after that let her perform Ghusl for every prayer.'” A kick in the womb: in other narrations means “A kick from Shaitan,”, meaning that the Shaitan uses it to confuse her about her religious commitment.

“Umar mentioned to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) that he became Junub at night, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Perform Wudu’ and wash you penis, then sleep.'”

“I heard Az-Zuhri say: ‘Salim told me that his father said: ‘I saw the Prophet (ﷺ), if he was in a hurry to travel, joining Maghrib and ‘Isha’.”

Then Bilal called the Adhan, then the Iqamah, then he prayed Zuhr, then he called the Iqamah, then he prayed ‘Asr, and he did not offer any other prayer in between.”

Then he repeated it and said: ‘Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah, Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah; Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulallah, Ashhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulallah; Hayya ‘alas-salah, Hayya ‘ala-salah; Hayya ‘alal-falah Hayya ‘alal-falah; Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar; La ilaha ill-Allah (I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; Come to prayer, come to prayer; come to prosperity, come to prosperity; Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest; there is none worthy of worship except Allah).'”

He stayed late one night and prayed with the Prophet (ﷺ) then he went back to his people to lead them in prayer, and he recited Surat Al-Baqarah. When a man from his people heard that, he stepped aside and prayed (on his own), then he left. They said: ‘You have become a hypocrite, 0 so and-so!’ He said: ‘By Allah, I have not become a hypocrite, and I will go to the Prophet (ﷺ) and tell him (about that),’ So he went to the Prophet and said: ‘0 Messenger of Allah(ﷺ), Muadh prays with you, then he comes to lead us in prayer. You delayed the prayer, and he prayed with you then he came back to lead us in prayer, and he started to recite Shut Al-Baqarah. When I heard that, I stepped aside and prayed by myself, because we are people who bring water with the camels and we work hard.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: ‘0 Muadh, do you want to cause hardship to the people? Recite such and such a Surah, and such and such a Surah.”‘

“May Allah increase you in keenness, but do not do this again.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught me a surah, and when I was sitting in the masjid I heard a man reciting it in a way that was different from mine. I said to him: ‘Who taught you this surah?’ He said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ I said: ‘Stay with me until we go to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ So we came to him and I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, this man recites a surah that you taught me differently.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Recite, O Ubayy.’ So I recited it, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: ‘You have done well.’ Then he said to the man: ‘Recite.’ So he recited it and it was different to my recitation.

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘There are statements of remembrance following the prayer of which the one who says them will never be deprive of the reward: Glorifying Allah (SWT) thirty-three times following each prayer, and praising Him thirty-three times, and magnifying Him thirty-four times.'”

“I said to ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab: ‘There is no sin on you if you shorten salah and if you fear that the disbelievers may put you in trial (attack you).

He brought it to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, you said that this is the clothing of one who has no share in the Hereafter, then you sent this to me?’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Sell it and use the money for whatever you need.'”

“We set out with no intention other than Hajj. And when we were in Sarif, my menses came. The Messenger of Allah entered upon me while I was weeping, and he said: ‘Have your menses come?’ I said; ‘Yes.’ He said; ‘That is something that Allah, the Mightily and Sublime, has decreed for the daughters of Adam.

We ate from its meat, and we were afraid that we would be intercepted (by the enemy) so I followed the Messenger of Allah, sometimes making my horse gallop and sometimes traveling at a regular place. I met a man from Ghifar at midnight and said: Where did you leave the Messenger of Allah? He said: I left him when he was napping in As-Suqya. I caught up with him and said: O messenger of Allah! Your Companions convey their greetings of Salam to you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. They were afraid that they may be intercepted and cut off from you, so wait for them. Then I said: O Messenger of Allah, I caught an onager and I have some of it. He said to the People: Eat, and they were I Ihram.'”

they were on a march, somr of them in Ihram and some not in Ihram. He said: “I saw an onager so I mounted my horse and picked up a spear. I asked them to help me but they refused to help me.

Abdulla bin Abdullah and salim bin Abdullah bin Umar when the army besiged Ibn Az-Zubair before he was killed. They said: “It does not matter if you do not perform Hajj this year; we are afraid lest we are prevented from reaching the House.” He Sadi: we went out with the Messenger of Allah and the disbelievers of the Quraish prevented us from reaching the House. So the Messenger of Allah slaughtered his Hadi and shave his head. I ask you to bear witness that I have resolved to peform Umrah. If Allah wills I will set out and if I am allowed to reach the House I will circumambulate it, and if I am prevented from reaching the House I will do what the Messenger of Allah did when I was with him.” Then he traveled for a while, then he said: “They are both the same.

And the Messenger of Allah proposed that I marry his freed slave, Usamah bin Zaid. I was told that the Messenger of Allah had said: ‘Whoever loves me, let him love Usamah.’ When the Messenger of Allah spoke to me I said: ‘My affairs are in your hands; marry me to whomever you wish.’ He said: ‘Go to Umm Sharik.’ Umm Sharik was a rich Ansari woman who used to spend a great deal in the cause of Allah, and she always had a lot of guests. I said: ‘I will do that.’ He said: ‘Do not do that, for Umm Sharik has a lot of guests, and I would not like your Khimar to fall off, or your shins to become uncovered, and the people to see something of you that you do not want them to see. Rather go to your cousin (son of your paternal uncle) ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Umm Maktum, who is a man of Banu Fihr.’ So I went to him.”

“A girl came to her and said: ‘My father married me to his brother’s son so that he might raise his own status thereby, and I was unwilling.’ She said: ‘Sit here until the Prophet comes.’ Then the Messenger of Allah came, and I told him (what she had said). He sent word to her father, calling him, and he left the matter up to her. She said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, I accept what my father did, but I wanted to know whether women have any say in the matter.'”

“My wife is breast-feeding and I do not want her to get pregnant.” The Prophet said: “What has been decreed in the womb will come to be.”

“I met my maternal uncle who was carrying a flag (for an expedition) and I said: ‘Where are you going?’ He said: ‘The Messenger of Allah is sending me to a man who has married his father’s wife after he died, to strike his neck or kill him.'”

I said: ‘You are two of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah who were present at Badr, and this is being done in your presence!’ They said: ‘Sit down if you want and listen with us, or if you want you can go away. We were granted a concession allowing entertainment at weddings.'”

“Tell him to take her back and keep her until she becomes pure, then menstruates again and becomes pure again. Then if he wishes he may keep her, or if he wishes, he may divorce her before he touches (has intercourse with) her. This is the time when Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has stated that women may be divorced.”

“Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Abdullah bin Ka’b narrated that his paternal uncle ‘Ubaidullah bin Ka’b said: ‘I heard my father Ka’b say: The Messenger of Allah sent word to me and my two companions saying: The Messenger of Allah commands you to keep away from your wives. I said to the envoy: Should I divorce my wife, or what should I do? He said: No, just keep away from her and do not come near her. I said to my wife: Go to your family and stay with them until Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, decides (concerning me). So she went to them.'”

“Mention of Li’an was made in the presence of the Messenger of Allah and ‘Asim bin ‘Adiyy said something about that, then he went away. He was met by a man from among his people who told him that he had found a man with his wife. He took him to the Messenger of Allah and told him of the situation in which he found his wife. That man was pale and slim with straight hair, and the one whom he claimed to have found with his wife was dark and well built, with very curly hair. The Messenger of Allah said: ‘O Allah, make it clear to me.’ Then she gave birth to a child who resembled the one whom her husband said he had found with her. So the Messenger of Allah conducted the procedure of Li’an between them.” A man in the gathering said to Ibn ‘Abbas: “Was she the one of whom the Messenger of Allah said: ‘If I were to have stoned anyone without evidence I would have stoned this one?'” Ibn ‘Abbas said: “No, that was a woman who used to do mischief even after becoming Muslim.”

“Take what she owes you and let her go.” He said: “Yes.” And the Messenger of Allah ordered her to wait for one menstrual cycle and then go to her family.

“I said to her: ‘Tell me your Hadith.’ She said: ‘I was separated from husband by Khul’, then I came to ‘Uthman and asked him: What ‘Iddah do I have to observe? He said: You do not have to observe any ‘Iddah, unless you had intercourse with him recently, in which case you should stay with him until you have menstruated. He said: In that I am following the ruling of the Messenger of Allah concerning Mariam Al-Maghaliyyah, who was married to Thabit bin Qais and was separated by Khul’ from him.'”

“Whatever a Verse (revelation) do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring a better one or similar to it.” and He said: “And when We change a Verse in place of another –and Allah knows best what He sends down.” and He said: “Allah blots out what He wills and confirms (what He wills). And with Him is the Mother of the Book.” “The first thing that was abrogated in the Qur’an was the Qiblah.” And He said: “And divorced women shall wait (as regards their marriage) for three menstrual periods.” and He said: “And those of your women as have passed the age of monthly courses, for them the ‘Iddah, if you have doubt (about their periods), is three months.” So (some) of that was abrogated, (according to) His, Most High, saying: “And then divorce them before you have sexual intercourse with them, no ‘Iddah have you to count in respect of them.”

“I came to Fatimah bint Qais and asked her about the ruling of the Messenger of Allah concerning her. She said that her husband divorced her irrevocably, and she referred her dispute with him, concerning accommodation and maintenance, to the Messenger of Allah. She said: ‘He did not give me (the right to) accommodation and maintenance, and he told me to observe my ‘Iddah in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum,'”

“My husband divorced me and I wanted to move, so I went to the Messenger of Allah and he said: ‘Move to the house of your paternal cousin ‘Amr bin Umm Maktum, and observe your ‘Iddah there.'” Al-Aswad hit him (Ash-Sha’bi) with a pebble and said: “Woe be to you! Why do you issue such a Fatwa? ‘Umar said: ‘If you bring two witnesses who will testify that they heard that from the Messenger of Allah (we will believe you), otherwise, we will not leave the Book of Allah for the word of a woman.’ ‘And turn them not out of their (husband’s) homes nor shall they (themselves) leave, except in case they are guilty of some open Fahishah.'”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Call (your children) by the names of the prophets. And the most beloved names to Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, are ‘Abdullah and ‘Abdur-Rahman. Keep horses; wipe their forelocks and posteriors, and prepare them for Jihad, but do not prepare them to seek vengeance for people killed during the Jahiliyyah. You should seek out Kumait, horses with a white mark on the face and white feet, or red with a white mark on the face and white feet, or black with a white mark on the face and white feet.'”

“I heard ‘Amr bin Al-Harith say: ‘The Messenger of Allah did not leave behind anything except his white mule, his weapon and some land which he left as a charity.'”

“I heard ‘Amr bin Al-Harith say: ‘I saw the Messenger of Allah and he left nothing behind except his white mule, his weapon and some land which he left as a charity.'”

“I was allocated some land of Khaibar. I came to the Messenger of Allah and said: ‘I have acquired some land and I have never acquired any wealth that is dearer to me or more precious than it.’ He said: ‘If you wish, you can give it in charity.'” So he gave it in charity on condition that it would not be bought or given away, for the poor, relatives, slaves, guests and wayfarers. And there is no sin on the administrator if he eats from it or feeds others on a reasonable basis, with no intention of becoming wealthy from it.

“We set out for Hajj, 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 panic.’ So we set out and found the people gathered around a group in the middle of the Masjid, among whom were ‘Ali, Az-Zubair, Talhah and Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas. While we were like that, ‘Uthman came, wearing a yellowish cloak with which he had covered his head. He said: Is ‘Ali here? Is Talhah here? Is Az-Zubair here? Is Sa’d here? They said: Yes. He said: I adjure you by Allah, beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, are you aware that the Messenger of Allah said: 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 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 Allah, beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, are you aware that the Messenger of Allah said: Whoever buys the well of Rumah, Allah will forgive him, so I bought it for such and such an amount, then I came to the Messenger of Allah 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 Allah, beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, are you aware that the Messenger of Allah said: Whoever equips these (men), Allah will forgive him, -meaning the army of Al-‘Usrah (i.e. Tabuk)- 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.”

Yet today you are preventing me from drinking from it, so that I have to drink salty water.’ They said: ‘By Allah, yes.’ He said: ‘I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that I equipped the army of Al-‘Usrah (Tabuk) from my own wealth?’ They said: ‘By Allah, yes.’ He said: ‘I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that when the Masjid became too small for the people and the Messenger of Allah said: Who will buy the plot of the family of so and so and add it to the Masjid, in return for a better plot in Paradise? I bought it with my capital and added it to the Masjid? Yet now you are preventing me from praying two Rak’ahs therein.’ They said: ‘By Allah, yes.’ He said: ‘I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that when the Messenger of Allah was atop Thabir -the Thabir in Makkah- and with him were Abu Bakr, ‘Umar and myself, the mountain shook, and the Messenger of Allah kicked it with his foot and said: Be still, Thabir, for upon you are a Prophet, a Siddiq and two martyrs?’ They said: ‘By Allah, yes.’ He said: ‘Allahu Akbar! They have testified for me, by the Lord of the Ka’bah’ -i.e., that I am a martyr.”

“By Allah, I adjure a man who heard the Messenger of Allah, on the day when the mountain shook with him, and he kicked it with his foot and said: ‘Be still, for there is no one upon you but a Prophet or a Siddiq or two martyrs,’ and I was with him.” Some men responded and affirmed that. Then he said: “By Allah, I adjure a man who witnessed the Messenger of Allah, on the day of Bai’at Al-Ridwan, say: ‘This is the Hand of Allah and this is the hand of ‘Uthman.'” Some men responded and affirmed that. He said: “By Allah, I adjure a man who heard the Messenger of Allah say, on the day of the army of Al-‘Usrah (i.e. Tabuk): ‘Who will spend and it will be accepted?’ And I equipped half of the army from my own wealth.” Some men responded and affirmed that. Then he said: “By Allah, I adjure a man who heard the Messenger of Allah say: ‘Who will add to this Masjid in return for a house in Paradise,’ and I bought it with my own wealth.” Some men responded and affirmed that.

During the time of the Messenger of Allah they used to rent land to one another in return for what grew on the banks of streams and where the springs emerged – some areas of which might give good produce and some might give none at all – and the people did not lease land in any other way. So that was forbidden. But as for leases where the return is known and guaranteed, there is nothing wrong with that.'”

By the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fatimah bint Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand.’ Then he cut off that woman.”

“Who would dare to do that except Usamah bin Zaid, the beloved of the Messenger of Allah?” so Usamah spoke to him and the Messenger of Allah said: “Are you interceding concerning one of the Hadd punishments decreed by Allah?” Then he stood up and addressed (the people) and said: “Those who came before you were destroyed because, whenever a noble person among them stole, they would let him go. But if a person who was weak stole, they would carry out the punishment on him. By Allah, if Fatimah the daughter of Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hnad.”

“A woman of Quraish, from banu Makhzum, stole, and she was brought to the Prophet. They said: ‘Who will speak to him concerning her?’ They said: ‘Usamah bin Zaid.’ So he came to the Prophet and spoke to him. But he rebuked him, and he said; ‘Among the Children of Israel, if a noble person stole, they would let him go. But if a low-class person stole, they would cut off his hand. By the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fatimah bint Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand.””

That he heard Talhah bin ‘Ubaidullah say: “A man from Najd with unkempt hair came to the Messenger of Allah said: ‘He will succeed, if he is telling the truth.'”

The Prophet said: “None of you has believed until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.”

“Ten things are from the Sunnah: Using the Siwak, trimming the mustache, rinsing the mouth, rinsing the nose, letting the beard grow, trimming the nails, plucking the armpit hairs, circumcision, shaving the pubes and washing one’s backside.”

That he asked Anas: “Did the Messenger of Allah dye his hair? He said: “His gray hair didn’t go far, it was only a little at his temples.”

The Messenger of Allah did not dye his hair; his gray hair were only a little beneath his lower lip and at his temples, and a little on his head.

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Any woman who puts on perfume then passes by people so that they can smell her fragrance then she is an adulteress.'”

The Messenger of Allah said: “Any woman who puts on a necklace of gold, Allah will put something similar of fire around her neck. Any woman who puts earrings of gold on her ears, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will put earrings of fire on her ears on the Day of Resurrection.”

“The Messenger of Allah forbade gold rings, red Al-Miyathir, Qassiyah garments and Al-Ji’ah, which is a drink made from barley and wheat.” – And he mentioned its strength.

“The Messenger of Allah forbade me (to wear) gold rings and Al-Qassi, Al-Mitharah, and Al-Ji’ah.”

“I said to ‘Ali: ‘Forbid to us that which the Messenger of Allah forbade to you.’ He said: ‘He forbade me from Ad-Dubba’, Al-Hantam, gold circles (rings), wearing silk, and Al-Qassi, and red Al-Mitharah.'”

“Sa’sa’ah bin Suwhan came to ‘Ali and said: ‘Forbid to us from that which the Messenger of Allah forbade to you.’ He said: ‘He forbade us from Ad-Dubba’, Al-Hantam, An-Naqir, Al-Ji’ah, and he forbade us from gold circles (rings), wearing silk, and wearing Al-Qassi, and red Al-Mitharah.'”

“O Commander of the Believers! Forbid us from that which the Messenger of Allah forbade you from.” He said: “He forbade us from Ad-Dubba, Al-Hantam, Al-Ji’ah, and from gold circles (rings), and from wearing silk, and from red Al-Mitharah.”

“My beloved, the Messenger of Allah , forbade me three things but I do not say that he forbade them to the people. He forbade me from wearing rings of gold, from wearing Al-Qassi, and Al-Mu’asfar Al-Mufaddam (garments that are deeply dyed with safflower), and (he forbade me) from reciting Qur’an when prostrating or bowing.” He was followed (in that narration) by Ad-Dahhak bin ‘Uthman.

“The ring of the Prophet .

“A man came from Al-Bahrain to the Prophet and greeted him with Salam, but he did not return his greeting. He was wearing a gold ring on his hand, and was wearing a silken Jubbah. He took them off, then he greeted him with Salam, and he returned his greeting. Then he said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, I came to you just now, and you turned away from me.’ He said: ‘You had a coal of fire on your hand.’ He said: ‘Then I have brought many coals.’ He said: ‘What you have brought with you is no better for us than the stones of Al-Harrah, but it is a temporary convenience of this world.’ He said: ‘What should I use for a ring?’ He said: ‘A ring of iron or silver or brass.'”

“The Messenger of Allah came out wearing a silver ring. He said: ‘Whoever wants to make a ring like this, let him do so, but do not put the same inscription.'”

“The Messenger of Allah put on a ring, and he had some words inscribed on it. He said: ‘We have put on a ring and have had some words engraved on it; no one of you should copy this inscription.'” Then Anas said: “It is as if I can see its whiteness on his hand.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Do not be so close to the Mushrikin that you can benefit from the light of their fires, and do not engrave Arabic (words) on your rings.'”

The Messenger of Allah until he died, then on the hand of Abu Bakr until he died, then on the hand of ‘Umar until he died. Then (it remained) on the hand of ‘Uthman for the first six years of his duties, but when he had to write many letters, he gave it to a man from among Ansar who used to seal letters with it. Then the Ansari went out to a well belonging to ‘Uthman and the ring fell. They looked for it but could not find it. He ordered that a similar ring be made and engraved (the words): “Muhammad Rasul Allah” on it.

“I was sitting with Salim when a caravan belonging to Umm Al-Banin passed by us, and they had bells with them. Salim narrated to Nafi’ from his father, that the Prophet said: ‘The angels do not accompany a caravan that has small bells with them.’ How often do you see small bells with these people.”

“I was with Salim bin ‘Abdullah when Salim narrated from his father, that the Prophet said: ‘The angels do not accompany groups of people who have small bells with them.'”

Who attributed it to the Prophet : “The angels do not accompany groups of people who have small bells with them.”

“I heard the Messenger of Allah say: ‘The angels do not enter a house in which there is a small bell, or a bell, and the angels do not accompany groups of people who have bells with them.'”

The hair of the Prophet came down to his shoulders.

The Messenger of Allah put on a ring of silver with an Ethiopian stone (Fass).

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘We have had a ring made with an inscription, and no one else should copy this inscription.'”

The Prophet used to wear his ring on his right hand.

“It is as if I can see the whiteness of the Prophet’s ring on his left finger.”

“I heard ‘Ali say: ‘The Prophet of Allah forbade me to wear a ring on the forefinger and middle finger.'”

“The Messenger of Allah forbade me from wearing gold rings, and from wearing Al-Qassiyah garments, and garments dyed with safflower, and reciting Qur’an while I am bowing.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Whoever drags his garment out of pride, Allah will not look at him on the Day of Resurrection.'”

“I heard Ibn ‘Umar narrating that the Messenger of Allah said: ‘Whoever drags his garment out of vanity, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will not look at him on the Day of Resurrection.'”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘The Izar should come to the middle of the shins and the calf. If you insist, then a little lower, and if you insist, then a little further down, but the Izar has no right to (come to) the ankle.” This is the wordings of Muhammad.

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Whatever of the Izar comes below the ankles is in the Fire.'”

“The Messenger of Allah went out, then he came in, and I had hung up a curtain on which there were (images of) horses with wings. When he saw it, he said: ‘Get rid of it.'”

“We had a curtain on which there were images of birds, at the entrance to the house. The Messenger of Allah said: ‘O ‘Aishah, remove it, for ever time I come in and see it, I remember this world.'” She said: “We had a plush wrap, with a border on it, that we would wear, and it was not cut off.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Khamr comes from these two.'” Suwaid (one of the narrators) said: “From these two trees: The date palm and the grapevine.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Khamr comes from these two trees: The date palm and the grapevine.'”

“Strong drink is Khamr.”

“Strong drink is Khamr.”

“Strong drink is Khamr.”

“I heard Ibn Abi Awfa say: ‘The Messenger of Allah forbade Nabidh made in green earthenware jars.’ I said: ‘And white ones?’ He said: ‘I do not know.'”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Whoever drinks Khamr, whip him; then if he drinks (again), whip him; then if he drinks (again), whip him; then if he drinks (again), kill him.'”

That his father used to say: “I do not see any difference between drinking Khamr and worshipping this column instead of Allah the Mighty and Sublime.”

Ibn Ad-Dailami rode looking for ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As. Ibn Ad-Dailami said: “I entered upon him and said: ‘O ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr, did you hear the Messenger of Allah say: If a man among my Ummah drinks Khamr, Allah will not accept his Salah for forty days.'”

“A man said to Ibn ‘Abbas: ‘I am a man from Khurasan, and our land is a cold land. We have a drink that is made from raisins and grapes and other things, and I am confused about it.’ He mentioned different kinds of drinks to him and mentioned many, until I thought that he had not understood him. Ibn ‘Abbas said to him: ‘You have told me too many. Avoid whatever intoxicates, whether it is made of dates, raisins or anything else.'”

“I heard Ibn ‘Abbas say: ‘By Allah, fire does not make anything permissible or forbidden.'” He said: “Then he explained what he meant by ‘it does not make permissible’ as referring to what they said about At-Tila’ (thickened grape juice), and he explained what he said about ‘it does not make forbidden’ as referring to performing Wudu’ after eating something that has been touched by fire.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Of all the lawful acts the most detestable to Allah is divorce.

‘Abd Allah bin Umar said that he divorced his wife while she was menstruating during the time of the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ). So ‘Umar bin Al Khattab asked the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) about this matter. The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) said “Order him, he must take her back and keep her back till she is purified, then has another menstrual period and is purified. Thereafter if he desires he may divorce her before having intercourse with her, for that is the period of waiting which Allaah the Glorified has commanded for the divorce of women.”

The wife of Thabit ibn Qays separated herself from him for a compensation. The Prophet (ﷺ) made her waiting period a menstrual course. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by ‘Abd al-Razzaq from Ma’mar from ‘Amr b. Muslim from ‘Ikrimah from the Prophet (ﷺ) in a mursal form (i.e. missing the link of the Companion).

Sa’d bin Jubair said I asked Ibn ‘Umar A man accused his wife of adultery? He said “The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) separated the brother and the sister of Banu Al ‘Ajilan (i.e., husband and wife). He said Allaah knows that one of you is a liar, will one of you repent? He repeated these words three times, but they refused. So he separated them from each other.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: The month consists of twenty-nine days, but do not fast till you sight it (the moon) and do not break your fast till you sight it. If the weather is cloudy, calculate it thirty days. When the twenty-ninth of Sha’ban came, Ibn Umar would send someone (who tried) to sight the moon for him. If it was sighted, then well and good; in case it was not sighted, and there was no cloud and dust before him (on the horizon), he would not keep fast the next day. If there appeared (on the horizon) before him cloud or dust, he would fast the following day. Ibn Umar would end his fasting alone with the people, and did not follow this calculation.

We broke the fast one during Ramadan when it was cloudy in the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ; then the sun rose. Abu Usamah said: I said to Hisham: Were they commanded to atone for it ? He replied: That was inevitable.

Mansur al-Kalbi said: Dihyah ibn Khalifah once went out from a village of Damascus at as much distance as it measures between Aqabah and al-Fustat during Ramadan; and that is three miles. He then broke his fast and the people broke their fast along with him. But some of them disliked to break their fast. When he came back to his village, he said: I swear by Allah, today I witnessed a thing of which I could not even think to see. The people detested the way of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and his Companions. He said this to those who fasted. At this moment he said: O Allah, make me die.

The Quraish used to fast on the day of ‘Ashurah in pre Islamic days. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would fast on it in pre-Islamic period. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to Medina, he fasted on it and commanded to fast on it. When the fast of Ramadan was prescribed, that became obligatory, and (fasting on) ‘Ashurah was abandoned. He who wishes may fast on it and he who wishes may leave it.

When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) intended to observe I’tikaf, he prayed the fajr prayer and then entered his place of seclusion. Once he intended to observe I’tikaf during the last ten days of Ramadan. She said: He ordered to pitch a tent for him, and it was pitched. She said: The other wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) also ordered to pitch tents for them and they were pitched. When he offered the fajr prayer, he saw the tents, and said: What is this ? Did you intend to do an act of virtue ? She said: He then ordered to demolish his tent, and it was demolished. Then his wives also ordered to demolish their tents and they were demolished. He then postponed I’tikaf till the first ten days, that is of Shawwal. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by Ibn Ishaq and al-Auza’i from Yahya b. Sa’id in a similar manner, and Malik narrated it from Yahya b. Sa’id, saying: He observed I’tikaf during twenty days of Shawwal.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Tie the horses, rub down their forelocks and their buttocks (or he said: Their rumps), and put things on their necks, but do not put bowstrings.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Go in Allah’s name, trusting in Allah, and adhering to the religion of Allah’s Apostle. Do not kill a decrepit old man, or a young infant, or a child, or a woman; do not be dishonest about booty, but collect your spoils, do right and act well, for Allah loves those who do well.

I was a boy. I used to throw stones at the palm-trees of the Ansar. So I was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) who said: O boy, why do you throw stones at the palm-trees? I said: eat (dates). He said: Do not throw stones at the palm trees, but eat what falls beneath them. He then wiped his head and said: O Allah, fill his belly.

‘Ali (Allaah be pleased with him) said “The Messenger of Allah(ﷺ) sent an army and appointed a man as a commander for them and he commanded them to listen to him and obey. He kindled fire and ordered them to jump into it. A group refused to enter into it and said “We escaped from the fire; a group intended to enter into it. When the Prophet (ﷺ) was informed about it, he said “Had they entered into it, they would have remained into it. There is no obedience in matters involving disobedience to Allaah. Obedience is in matters which are good and universally recognized.

Al-Hayyaj ibn Imran ibn Husayn reported that a slave of Imran ran away. He took a vow to Allah that if he overpowers him, he will cut off his head.

He said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to exhort us to give alms (sadaqah) and forbid us to mutilate (a slain). I then came to Imran ibn Husayn and asked him.

I then saw a group of people which contained children and women. I shot an arrow towards them, but it fell between them and the mountain. They stood; I brought them to Abu Bakr. There was among them a woman of Fazarah. She wore a skin over her and her daughter who was the most beautiful of the Arabs was with her. Abu Bakr gave her daughter to me as a reward. I came back to Madeenah. The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) met me and said to me “Give me the woman, Salamah. I said to him, I swear by Allaah, she is to my liking and I have not yet untied he garment. He kept silence, and when the next day came the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) met me in the market and said to me “Give me the woman, Salamah, by Allaah, your father. I said the Apostle of Allaah, I have not yet untied her garment. I swear by Allaah, she is now yours. He sent her to the people of Makkah who had (some Muslims) prisoners in their hands. They released them for this woman.

Nafi’ said that a slave of Ibn Umar ran away to the enemy, and then the Muslims overpowered them. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) returned him to Ibn Umar and that was not distributed (as a part of booty). Abu Dawud said: The other narrators said: Khalid b. al-Walid returned him to him (Ibd ‘Umar).

Some slaves (of the unbelievers) went out to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) on the day of al-Hudaybiyyah before treaty. Their masters wrote to him saying: O Muhammad, they have not gone out to you with an interest in your religion, but they have gone out to escape from slavery. Some people said: They have spoken the truth, Messenger of Allah, send them back to them. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) became angry and said: I do not see your restraining yourself from this action), group of Quraysh, but that Allah send someone to you who strike your necks. He then refused to return them, and said: They are emancipated (slaves) of Allah, the Exalted.

A’ishah said (this is the version of narrator Yahya). A man from the polytheists accompanied the Prophet (ﷺ) to fight along with him. He said “Go back. Both the narrators (Musaddad and Yahya) then agreed. The Prophet said “We do not want any help from a polytheist.”

Mus’ab bin Sa’d reported on the authority of his father (Sa’ad bin Abi Waqqas) “I brought a sword to the Prophet(ﷺ) on the day of the Badr and I said (to him) Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) , Allaah has healed up my breast from the enemy today, so give me this sword. He said “This sword is neither mine nor yours. I then went away saying “today this will be given to a man who has not been put to trial like me. Meanwhile a messenger and came to me and said “Respond, I thought something was revealed about me owing to my speech. I came and the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me “You asked me for this sword, but this was neither mine nor yours. Now Allaah has given it to me, hence it is yours. He then recited “they ask thee concerning (things taken as) spoils of war. Say “(Such) spoils are at the disposal of Allaah and the Apostle. Abu Dawud said “According to the reading of the Qur’an of Ibn Mas’ud the verse goes. They ask thee concerning (things taken as ) spoils of war.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent us along with an army towards Najd, and he sent a detachment of that army (to face the enemy). The whole army got twelve camels per head as their portion, but he gave the detachment one additional camel (apart from the division made to the army). Thus they got thirteen camels each (as a reward).

Al Walid bin Muslim said “I narrated this tradition (mentioned above) to Ibn Al Mubarak and said “And similarly it has been narrated by Ibn Abi Farwah to us on the authority of Nafi’(as narrated by Shu’aib). He (Ibn Al Mubarak) said “Those whom you have named cannot be equal to Malik i.e, Malik bin Anas.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent a detachment to Najd. I went out along with them, and got abundant riches. Our commander gave each of us a camel as a reward. We then came upon the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he divided the spoils of war among us. Each of us received twelve camels after taking a fifth of it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not take account of our companion (i.e. the commander of the army), nor did he blame him for what he had done. Thus each man of us had received thirteen camels with the reward he gave.

Nafi’ reported on the authority of ‘Abd Allaah bin ‘Umar “The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) sent a detachment towards Najd. ‘Abd Allaah bin ‘Umar also accompanied it. They gained a large number of Camels as a booty. Their portion was twelve Camels each and they were rewarded (in addition) one Camel each.

I witnessed sacrificing along with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at the place of prayer. When he finished his sermon, he descended from his pulpit, and a ram was brought to him.

He said: Your reward became due, and she came back to you in inheritance. She said: She died while a month’s fasting was due from her. Would it be sufficient or be taken as completed if I fast on her behalf ? He said: Yes. She said: She also did not perform Hajj. Would it be sufficient or be taken completed if I perform (Hajj) on her behalf ? He said: Yes.

The Prophet (ﷺ) as saying: I am nearer to every believer than himself, and if anyone leaves, it goes to his heirs.

AbdurRahman ibn Ka’b ibn Malik reported on the authority of a man from among the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ): The infidels of the Quraysh wrote (a letter) to Ibn Ubayy and to those who worshipped idols from al-Aws and al-Khazraj, while the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was at that time at Medina before the battle of Badr. (They wrote): You gave protection to our companion. We swear by Allah, you should fight him or expel him, or we shall come to you in full force, until we kill your fighters and appropriate your women. When this (news) reached Abdullah ibn Ubayy and those who were worshippers of idols, with him they gathered together to fight the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). When this news reached the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), he visited them and said: The threat of the Quraysh to you has reached its end. They cannot contrive a plot against you, greater than what you yourselves intended to harm you. Are you willing to fight your sons and brethren? When they heard this from the Prophet (ﷺ), they scattered. This reached the infidels of the Quraysh. The infidels of the Quraysh again wrote (a letter) to the Jews after the battle of Badr: You are men of weapons and fortresses. You should fight our companion or we shall deal with you in a certain way. And nothing will come between us and the anklets of your women. When their letter reached the Prophet (ﷺ), they gathered Banu an-Nadir to violate the treaty. They sent a message to the Prophet (ﷺ): Come out to us with thirty men from your companions, and thirty rabbis will come out from us till we meet at a central place where they will hear you. If they testify to you and believe in you, we shall believe in you. The narrator then narrated the whole story. When the next day came, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out in the morning with an army, and surrounded them. He told them: I swear by Allah, you will have no peace from me until you conclude a treaty with me. But they refused to conclude a treaty with him. He therefore fought them the same day. Next he attacked Banu Quraysh with an army in the morning, and left Banu an-Nadir. He asked them to sign a treaty and they signed it. He turned away from them and attacked Banu an-Nadir with an army. He fought with them until they agreed to expulsion. Banu an-Nadir were deported, and they took with them whatever their camels could carry, that is, their property, the doors of their houses, and their wood. Palm-trees were exclusively reserved for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Allah bestowed them upon him and gave them him as a special portion. He (Allah), the Exalted, said: What Allah has bestowed on His Apostle (and taken away) from them, for this ye made no expedition with either camel corps or cavalry.” He said: “Without fighting.” So the Prophet (ﷺ) gave most of it to the emigrants and divided it among them; and he divided some of it between two men from the helpers, who were needy, and he did not divide it among any of the helpers except those two. The rest of it survived as the sadaqah of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) which is in the hands of the descendants of Fatimah (Allah be pleased with her).

Ibn ‘Umar said “The Jews Al Nadir and Quraizah fought with the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ), so the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) expelled Banu Al Nadir and allowed the Quraizah to stay and favored them. The Quraizah thereafter fought (with the Prophet).” So he killed their men and divided their women, property and children among Muslims except some of them who associated with the Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ). He gave them protection and later on they embraced Islam. The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) expelled all the Jews of Madeenah in Toto, Banu Qainuqa, they were the people of ‘Abd Allaah bin Salam, the Jews of Banu Harith and any of Jews who resided in Madeenah.

The Prophet fought with the people of Khaybar, and captured their palm-trees and land, and forced them to remain confined to their fortresses. So they concluded a treaty of peace providing that gold, silver and weapons would go to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and whatever they took away on their camels would belong to them, on condition that they would not hide and carry away anything. If they did (so), there would be no protection for them and no treaty (with Muslims). They carried away a purse of Huyayy ibn Akhtab who was killed before (the battle of) Khaybar. He took away the ornaments of Banu an-Nadir when they were expelled. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked Sa’yah: Where is the purse of Huyayy ibn Akhtab? He replied: The contents of this purse were spent on battles and other expenses. (Later on) they found the purse. So he killed Ibn AbulHuqayq, captured their women and children, and intended to deport them. They said: Muhammad, leave us to work on this land; we shall have half (of the produce) as you wish, and you will have half. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to make a contribution of eighty wasqs of dates and twenty wasqs of wheat to each of his wives.

Umar said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had transaction with the Jews of Khaybar on condition that we should expel them when we wish. If anyone has property (with them), he should take it back, for I am going to expel the Jews. So he expelled them.

I came to the Prophet (ﷺ), and took the oath of allegiance to him. He said: If anyone reaches a water which has not been approached before by any Muslim, it belongs to him. The people, therefore, went out running and marking (on the land).

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Do not swear by your fathers, or by your mothers, or by rivals to Allah; and swear by Allah only, and swear by Allah only when you are speaking the truth.

A similar tradition has also been transmitted by Yusuf b. ‘Abd Allah b. Salam through a different chain of narrators.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If anyone says when swearing an oath: “If Allah wills,” he makes an exception.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If anyone swears an oath and makes an exception, he may fulfil it if he wishes and break it if he wishes without any accountability for breaking.

A similar tradition has also been transmitted by ‘Uqbah b. ‘Amir from the Prophet (ﷺ) through a different chain of narrators.

“The last verses about usury.”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: If anyone buys grain, he must not sell it till receives it in full.

During the time of Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) we used to buy grain, and he sent a man to us who ordered us to move it from the spot where we had bought it to some other place, before we sold it without weighing or measuring it.

We were sitting waiting for Abdullah ibn Umar who came out to us and sat. He then said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: If anyone’s intercession intervenes as an obstacle to one of the punishments prescribed by Allah, he has opposed Allah; if anyone disputes knowingly about something which is false, he remains in the displeasure of Allah till he desists, and if anyone makes an untruthful accusation against a Muslim, he will be made by Allah to dwell in the corrupt fluid flowing from the inhabitants of Hell till he retracts his statement.

Abu Dawud said: Ghabuq is a drink in the evening and Sabuh is a drink in the morning.

Zirr ibn Hubaysh said: Hudhayfah traced, I think, to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) the saying: He who spits in the direction of the qiblah will come on the Day of Resurrection in the state that his saliva will be between his eyes; and he who eats from this noxious vegetable should not come near our mosque, saying it three times.

The tradition mentioned above by Rawh b. ‘Ubadah from Sa’id b. Abu ‘Arubah. In this version he did not mention the words “the slave should be required to work.” If has also been transmitted by Jarir b. Hazim and Musa b. Khalaf from Qatadah through the chain of Yazid b. Zurai’ and to the same effect. In this version they mentioned the words “the slave should be required to work”

If anyone emancipates his share in slave, a fair price for the slave should be fixed, give his partners their shares, and the slave be thus emancipated. Otherwise he is emancipated to the extent of the share which he emancipated.

He will be emancipated to the extent of the share which he emancipated, and sometimes he did not say these words.

I do not know whether the following words are part of the tradition of the Prophet (ﷺ) or Nafi’ told them himself: “Otherwise he will be emancipated to the extent of the first man’s share.”

If anyone emancipates his share in a slave, he should emancipate him completely if he has enough money to pay the full price ; but if he has none, he will be emancipated to the extent of his share.

The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Ibn ‘Umar from the Prophet (ﷺ) to the same effect as mentioned by Ibrahim b. Musa through a different chain.

A man emancipated six slaved at the time of his death and he had no other property. The Prophet (ﷺ) was informed about it. He cast lots among them, emancipated two and retained four in slavery.

A robe containing silk was presented to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He then sent it to me. I wore it and came to him. I saw him looking angry in his face. He then said: I did not send it to you to wear. He ordered me and I divided it among my women.

When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) mentioned lower garment, Umm Salamah, wife of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), asked him: And a woman, Messenger of Allah? He replied: She may hang down a span. Umm Salamah said: Still it (foot) will be uncovered. He said: Then a forearm’s length, nor exceeding it.

That he heard Mu’awiyah b. Abi Sufyan say during the Hajj when he was on the pulpit and took a lock of hair which was in the hand of the guard, saying: O people of Medina, where are your scholars ?

The signet-ring of the Prophet (ﷺ) was all of silver as was also its stone.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took a signet-ring of gold, and put the stone next the palm of his hand. He engraved on it “Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah”. The people then took signet-rings of gold. When he saw that they had taken them (like his ring) he threw it away and said: I shall never wear it. He then fashioned a silver ring and engraved on it “Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah”. Then Abu Bakr wore it after him, then ‘Umar wore it after Abu Bakr, and the ‘Uthman wore it after ‘Umar till it fell down in a well called Aris. Abu Dawud said: The people did not disagree on ‘Uthman till the signet-rin fell down from his hand.

He engraved on it “Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah.” and said: “No one must engrave anything in the manner of this signet-ring of mine. He then transmitted the rest of the tradition.

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to wear the signet-ring on his right hand.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said one day from the pulpit: When some people were sailing in the sea, their food was finished. An island appeared to them. They went out seeking bread.

He then narrated the rest of the (No. 4311) tradition. He asked about the palm-trees of Baysan and the spring of Zughar. He said: He is the Antichrist. Ibn Salamah said to me: There is something more in this tradition, which I could not remember. He said: Jabir testified that it was he who was Ibn Sayyad. I said: He died. He said: Let him die. I said: He accepted Islam. He said: Let him accept Islam. I said: He entered Medina. He said: Let him enter Medina.

The prophet (ﷺ) used to cut off a thief’s hand for a quarter of a dinar and upwards.

Cutting of the hand is not be inflicted on one who snatches something. Abu Dawud said : Ibn Juraij did not hear these two traditions from Abu al-Zubair, I have been informed by Ahmad. B. Hanbal saving : Ibn Juraij heard them from Yasin al-Zayyat. Aby Dawud said: Al-Mughirah b. Muslim has transmitted it from Abu al-Zubair from Jabir From the prophet(ﷺ).

I was among the captives of Banu Qurayzah. They (the Companions) examined us, and those who had begun to grow hair (pubes) were killed, and those who had not were not killed. I was among those who had not grown hair.

A similar tradition has been transmitted by Zakariya b. Salim through a different chain of narrators. This version adds: He (the Prophet) then threw a pebble like a gram at her. He then said: Throw at her and avoid her face. When se died, he took her out and prayed over her. About repentance he said similar to the tradition on Buraidah.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and AbuBakr gave forty lashes for drinking wine and Umar made it eighty. And all this is sunnah, the model and standard practice.

Abu Dawud said: Hudain b. al-Mundhir Abu Sasan was the leader of his tribe.

Whenever he (mu’adh b. jabal) sat in a meeting for preaching, he would say: Allah is a just arbiter; those who doubt would perish. One day Mu’adh b. jabal said: In the times after you there would be trails in which riches would be abundant. During these trails the Quran would be easy so much so that every believer, hypocrite, man, woman, young, grown up, slave and free man will learn it. Then a man might say: What happened with the people that they do not follow me while I read the Quran? They are not going to follow me until I introduce a novelty for them other than it. So avoid that which is innovated (in religion), for whichever is innovated is an error. I warn you of the deviation of a scholar from right guidance, for sometimes Satan utters a word of error through the tongue of a scholar; and sometimes a hypocrites may speak a word of truth. I said to Mu’adh b. jabal: I am at a loss to understand may Allah have mercy on you that a learned man sometimes may speak a word of error and a hypocrite may speak a word of truth. He replied: Yes, avoid the speech of a learned man on distract you from him (the learned), for it is possible that he may withdraw (from these well-known things), and you get the truth when you hear it, for truth has light. Abu Dawud said: In this tradition Ma’mar on the authority of al-Zuhrl said: The words “wa la yun iyannaka” instead of “wa la yuthniyannaka,” with the same meaning: “it may not distract you” salih b. Kaisan on the authority of al-Zurhrl said in this tradition the words “al-mushtaharat” (well-know things). He also said the word “La yuthniyannaka” as ‘Uqail mentioned. Ibn ishaq, on the authority of al-Zuhri, said: Yes, if you are doubtful about the speech of a scholar until you say: WHAT did he mean by this word?

Al-Hasan said: I will never return to it.

The Prophet (May peace be upon him) distributed (spoils) among the people I said to him : Give so and so for he is a believer. He said : Or he is a Muslim. I give a man something while another man is dearer to me than him, fearing that he may fall into Hell on his face.

Every son of Adam will be devoured by the earth with the exception of the tail-bone from which he was created and from which he will be reconstituted.

The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) came and visited me in the morning when I had been conducted to my husband, and sat on my bedding as you are sitting beside me.

AbuAli al-Lu’lu said: I heard AbuDawud say: This is a rejected tradition.

Your prophet (May peace be upon him) said : Every good act is a SADAQAH (almsgiving).

I slapped a freed slave of ours. My father called him and me and said: Take retaliation on him. We, the people of Banu Muqarrin, were seven during the time of the Prophet (ﷺ),and we had only a female servant. A man of us slapped her. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Set her free. They said: We have no other servant than her. He said: She must serve them till they become well off. When they become well off, they should set her free.

Al-Abbas said to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): We wish to sweep out Zamzam, but in it there are some of these Jinnan, meaning small snakes; so the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordered that they should be killed.

Kill snakes, kill those which have two streaks and those with small tails, for they obliterate the eyesight and cause miscarriage. Salim said: ‘Abd Allah(b. ‘Umar) used to kill every snake which he found. Abu Lubabah or Zaid b. al-Khattab saw him chasing a snake. He said: He(the Prophet) prohibited house-snakes.

A woman used to perform circumcision in Medina. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to her: Do not cut severely as that is better for a woman and more desirable for a husband. Abu Dawud said: It has been transmitted by ‘Ubaid Allah b. ‘Amr from ‘Abd al-Malik to the same effect through a different chain. Abu Dawud said: It is not a strong tradition. It has been transmitted in mursal form (missing the link of the Companions) Abu Dawud said: Muhammad b. Hasan is obscure, and this tradition is weak.

But Umar said: ‘Wouldn’t it better if we had a man call for the prayer?'” He said: “So Allah’s Messenger said: ‘O Bilal! Stand up and call for the Salat.'”

“I prayed two Rak’ah after Al-Maghrib with the Prophet (S) in his house.”

“I asked Aishah about the Salat of Allah’s Messenger (S). She said: ‘He would pray four Rak’ah before Az-Zuhr and two Rak’ah after it, and two after Al-Maghrib, and two Rak’ah after Al-Isha, and two before Al-Fajr.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood, then (later) he sat”. (Sahih) There are narrations on this topic from Al-Hasan bin ‘Ali, and Ibn ‘Abbas. Abu Eisa said: The Hadith of ‘Ali is a Hasan Sahih Hadith, regarding which there are narrations from four of the Tabi’in narrating it from each other. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge. Ash-Shafi’i said: “This is the most correct thing on this topic” This Hadith abrogates first Hadith: “Whenever you see a funeral (procession), stand up .” Ahmad said: “If he wants, he stands, and if he wants, he does not stand.” His proof is that it has been reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) stood, then sat, and this is what Ishaq bin Ibrahim said. (Abu Eisa said:) As for the saying of ‘Ali: The Prophet (ﷺ) stood for the funeral and then sat, he means that the Prophet (ﷺ) would stand when he saw a funeral (procession), then he did not do so later, so he would not stand when he saw the funeral (procession).

“A deceased man would be brought to the Messenger of Allah while a debt was due upon him. So he would say: ‘Has he left anything to pay off his debt?’ If he was told that he had left something to pay it then he would pray (the funeral prayer) for him. Otherwise he would tell the Muslims: ‘Pray for your companion.’ So when Allah granted him the victories, he stood and said: ‘I am more worthy in the case of the believers than they themselves are. So whoever among the believers dies and leaves a debt behind, then it is up to me to fulfill it. And whoever leaves wealth behind, then it is for his heirs.'”

Others have reported this Hadith from Ibn Uyainah, from Az-Zuhri, from Anas, and they did not mention “from Wa’il, from his son Nawf” in it.

“The Prophet prohibited the Mut’ah with women, and the meat of domestic donkeys during (the campaign of) Khaibar.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prohibited me from selling what was not with me.” Waki’ reported this Hadith from Yazid bin Ibrahim, from Ibn Sirin, from Ayyub, from Hakim bin Hizam, and he did not mention in it: “From Yusuf bin Mahak.” And the narration of ‘Abdus-Samad (a narrator in the chain of Hadith no. 1235) is more correct. Yahya bin Abi Kathir reported this Hadith from Ya’la bin Hakim, from Yusuf bin Mahak, from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Ismah, from Hakim bin Hizam, from the Prophet (ﷺ). This Hadith is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge, they dislike for a man to sell what is not with him.

That Abu Sa’eed said: “We had some wine that belonged to an orphan. When Al-Ma’idah was revealed I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about it, I said: ‘It belongs to an orphan.’ He said: ‘Spill it out.'” There is something on this topic from Anas bin Malik. Hadith. Similar to this has been reported through other routes from the Prophet (ﷺ). Some of the people of knowledge stated according to this, they dislike the usage of wine for making vinegar. And the only thing that they disliked about it, and Allah knows best, is for a Muslim to have wine in his house until it becomes vinegar. Abu Al-Waddak’s name is Jabr bin Nawf.

From his father, that he sought permission from the Prophet (ﷺ) to take the wages for cupping and he (ﷺ) forbade him from it. He continued asking him and seeking his permission until he said: “Use it to give fodder to your water-carrying camels, and to feed your slaves.” There are narrations on this topic from Rafi’ bin Khadij, Abu Juhaifah, Jabir, and As-Sa’ib bin Yazid. The Hadith of Muhayyisah is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge. Ahmad said: “If I am asked for something by cupper then I deny him, acting upon this Hadith.”

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Do not sell the (slave) female singers, not purchase them, nor teach them (to sing). And there is no good in trading in them, and their prices are unlawful. It was about the likes of this that this Ayah was revealed: And among mankind is he who purchases idle talk to divert from the way of Allah.” There is narration about this from ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab. We only know of the Hadith of Abu Umamah, like this, from this route. Some of the people of knowledge have criticized ‘Ali bin Yazid (one of the narrators) and graded him weak, and he is from Ash-Sham.

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prohibited Al-Muhaqalah, Al-Muzabanah, Al-Mukhabarah, and making an exception (in a sale) unless it is made known.” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih, Gharib from this route as narration of Yunus bin ‘Ubaid, from ‘Ata, from Jabir.

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “None of you is to sell over the sale of others, nor to propose over the proposal of others.” There are narration on this topic from Abu Hurairah and Samurah. The Hadith of Ibn ‘Umar is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. And it has been reported from the Prophet (ﷺ) that he said: “Do not haggle in competition with your brother’s haggling.” And the meaning of sale in this Hadith of the Prophet (ﷺ), according to some of the people of knowledge is to haggle.

That he heard Tawus narrating from Ibn ‘Umar and Ibn ‘Abbas, and they both narrated this Hadith from the Prophet (ﷺ). (A Hadith similar to no. 1298). The Hadith of Ibn ‘Abbas (ra), is a Hasan Sahih Hadith. This Hadith is acted upon according to soe of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ). They said whoever gives a gift to a closely related relative, then he is not to take back his gift. And whoever gives a gift to someone other then a close relative, then he may take it back as long as it has not been reciprocated. This is the view of Ath-Thawri. Ash-Shafi’i said: “It is not lawful for any that has given a gift to take it back except for what the father gave to his son.” Ash-Shafi’i argued with the Hadith of ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar from the Prophet (ﷺ): “It is not lawful for anyone that has given a gift to take it back, except for a father who give something to his son.”

(Another chain) from Abu Maryam the Companion of the Prophet (ﷺ), from the Prophet (ﷺ).

“Whoever frees a portion” or he said: “a part of a slave, then he should finish paying his price if he can afford it. If he can not afford to pay reasonable price then he should be allowed to work to earn the amount that will free him without overburdening him.” (Another chain) similar, and he said: “a part”.

“My maternal uncle Abu Burdah Ibn Niyar passed by me and he had a flag with him. I said: ‘Where are you going ?’ He said: ‘the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) dispatched me to a man who married a woman his father had married to: that I should bring him his head.”

The punishment for the adulterer that we find in our Book is stoning, but many of our nobles were being stoned (because of the prevalence of adultery among them), so if we caught one of our nobles (committing adultery), we would let him go; but if we caught one of the weak among us, we would carry out the punishment on him. We said: “Come, let us agree upon something that we may impose on both noble and weak alike.” So we agreed to blacken the face and whip them, instead of stoning.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) ‘O Allah (SWT), I am the first of those who revive your command which they had killed off,’ and he issued orders that (the man) be stoned.”

The trial is multiplied for us and so is the reward.’ I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, which people are most severely tested?’ He said: ‘The Prophets.’ I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, then who?’ He said: ‘Then the righteous, some of whom were tested with poverty until they could not find anything except a cloak to put around themselves. One of them will rejoice at calamity as one of you would rejoice at ease.’”

“The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allah loves a people He tests them. Whoever accepts that wins His pleasure but whoever is discontent with that earns His wrath.”

“There are three things, whoever has them has found the taste of faith (One of the narrators) Bundar said: ‘The sweetness of faith; When he loves a man and only loves him for the sake of Allah. When Allah and His Messenger are more beloved to him than anything else; and when being thrown into the fire is dearer to him than going back to disbelief after Allah has saved him from it.”

“Adhering to religion will only become harder and worldly affairs will only become more difficult, and people will only become more stingy, and the Hour will only come upon the worst of people, and the only Mahdi (after Muhammad (ﷺ)) is ‘Eisa bin Maryam.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) addressed us, and most of his speech had to do with telling us about Dajjal. He warned about him, and among the things he said was: ‘There will not be any tribulation on earth, since the time Allah created the offspring of Adam, that will be greater than the tribulation of Dajjal. Allah has not sent any Prophet but he warned his nation about Dajjal. I am the last of the Prophets, and you are the last of the nations. He will undoubtedly appear among you. If he appears while I am among you, I will contend with him on behalf of every Muslim, and if he appears while I am not among you, then each man must fend for himself and Allah will take care of every Muslim on my behalf. He will emerge from Al-Khallah, between Sham and Iraq, and will wreak havoc right and left. O slaves of Allah, remain steadfast. I will describe him to you in a manner in which none of the Prophets has described him before me. He will start by saying “I am a Prophet,” and there is no Prophet after me. Then a second time he will say: “I am your Lord.” But you will not see your Lord until you die. He is one-eyed, and your Lord is not one-eyed, and written between his eyes is Kafir. Every believer will read it, whether he is literate or illiterate. Part of his Fitnah will be that he will have with him Paradise and Hell, but his Hell will be a Paradise and his Paradise a Hell. Whoever is tested with his fire (hell), let him seek the help of Allah and recite the first Verses of Al-Kahf, then it will be cool and safe for him, as the fire was for Ibrahim. Part of his Fitnah will be that he will say to a Bedouin: “What do you think, if I resurrect your father and mother for you, will you bear witness that I am your Lord?” He will say: “Yes.” Then two devils will appear to him in the form of his father and mother and will say: “O my son, follow him, for he is your Lord.” And part of his Fitnah will be that he will overpower a single soul and kill him, then he will cut him with a saw until he falls in two pieces. Then he will say: “Look at this slave of mine; I will resurrect him now, then he will claim that he has a Lord other than me.” Then Allah will resurrect him and the evil one will say to him: “Who is your Lord?” and he will say: “Allah is my Lord, and you are the enemy of Allah, you are Dajjal. By Allah, I have never had more insight about you than I have today.” (An addition) Abul-Hasan Tanafisi said: “Muharibi told us: ‘Ubaidullah bin al-Walid Al-Wassafi told us, from ‘Atiyyah, that Abu Sa’eed said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘That man will be the highest in status in my nation in Paradise'” –  He said: “Abu Sa’eed said: ‘By Allah, we did not think that man would be anyone other than ‘Umar bin Khattab, until he passed away. –   Muharibi said: “Then we went back to the narration of Abu Rafi’.” He said: – ‘Part of his Fitnah will be that he will command the sky to rain, and it will rain, and he will command the earth to bring forth vegetation and it will do so. And part of his Fitnah will be that he will pass by a clan and they will disbelieve in him, so all their flocks will perish and none will be left. And part of his Fitnah will be that he will pass by a clan who will believe in him, so he will command the sky to rain, and it will rain, and he will command the earth to bring forth vegetation and it will do so, until their flocks will come back in the evening of that day, bigger and fatter than they have ever been, with their flanks stretched and their udders full of milk. There will be no part of the earth left that he does not enter and prevail over, except for Makkah and Al-Madinah, for he will not approach them on any of their mountain paths but he will be met by angels with unsheathed swords, until he will stop at the red hill at the end of the marsh. Then Al-Madinah will be shaken with its people three times, and no hypocrite, male or female, will be left, all will come out to him. Thus it will be cleansed of impurity just as the bellows cleanses the iron of dross. And that day will be called the Day of Deliverance.’ “Umm Sharik bint Abi ‘akar said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, where will the Arabs be that day?’ He said: ‘On that day they will be few, and most of them will be in Baitul-Maqdis (Jerusalem), and their leader will be a righteous man. When their leader has stepped forward to lead them in subh prayer, ‘Eisa bin Maryam will come down to them. Their leader will step backwards so that ‘Eisa can come forward and lead the people in prayer, but ‘Eisa will place his hand between his shoulders and say to him: “Go forward and pray, for the Iqamah was given for you.” Then their leader will lead them in prayer. When he has finished, ‘Eisa (as), will say: “Open the gate.” So they will open it and behind it will be Dajjal with seventy thousand Jews, each of them carrying an adorned sword and wearing a greenish cloak. When Dajjal looks at him, he will start to melt as salt melts in water. He will run away, and ‘Eisa (as), will say: “I have only one blow for you, which you will not be able to escape!” He will catch up with him at the eastern gate of Ludd, and will kill him. Then Allah will defeat the Jews, and there will be nothing left that Allah has created which the Jews will be able to hide behind, except that Allah will cause it to speak – no stone, no tree, no wall, no animal – except for Al-Gharqad (the box-thorn), for it is one of their trees, and will not speak – except that it will say: “O Muslim slave of Allah, here is a Jews, come and kill him!” “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘His (Dajjal’s) days will number forty years: a year like half a year, a year like a month, a month like a week, and the rest of his days will be like sparks from a fire (i.e., they will pass quickly). One of you will enter the gate of Al-Madinah in the morning and not reach its other gate until evening comes.’ It was said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, how should we pray on those short days?’ He said: ‘Estimate (the times of) the prayer, as you do on these long days, then pray.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Eisa bin Maryam (as), will be a just judge and a just ruler among my nation. He will break the cross, slaughter the pigs, abolish the Jizyah and charity will be left. No one will be appointed to (collect the Zakah of) sheep and camels. Grudges and mutual hatred will disappear and the venom of every venomous creature will be removed, so that a baby boy will but his hand in a snake and it will not harm him, and a baby girl will make a lion run away, and it will not harm her; and the wolf will be among the sheep like their sheepdog. The earth will be filled with peace just as a vessel is filled with water. The people will be united and none will be worshipped except Allah. War will cease and Quraish will no longer be in power. The earth will be like a silver platter, with its vegetation growing as it did at the time of Adam, until a group of people will gather around one bunch of grapes and it will suffice them, and a group will gather around a single pomegranate and it will suffice them. An ox will be sold for such and such amount of money, and a horse will be sold for a few Dirham.’ They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, why will horses be so cheap?’ He said: ‘They will never be ridden in war again.’ It was said to him: ‘Why will oxen be so expensive?’ He said: ‘Because all the land will be tilled. Before Dajjal appears there will be three difficult years in which the people will suffer severe famine. In the first year, Allah will command the sky to withhold one third of its rain and the earth to withhold one third of its produce. In the second year, He will command the sky to withhold two thirds of its rain and the earth to withhold two-thirds of its produce. In the third year, he will command the sky to withhold all of its rain, and not a single drop will fall, and the earth to withhold all of its produce, and nothing will grow. All cloven-hoofed animals will die, except those that Allah wills.’ It was said: ‘What will the people live on at that time?’ He said: ‘Tahlil, Takbir, Tasbih and Tahmid. That will take the place of food for them.'” Abu ‘Abdullah (Ibn Majah) said: “I heard Abul-Hasan Tanafisi say: ‘I heard ‘Abdur-Rahman Al-Muharibi say: “This Hadith should be sent to every teacher so that they can teach it to the children in the schools.”

It was narrated from ‘Ata’ bin Sa’ib from his father, from ‘Ali that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to ‘Ali and Fatimah, when they were covered with a Khamil belonging to them. And a Khamil is a white velvet made of wool. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had given this to them as a wedding gift, along with a pillow stuffed with Idhkhir* and a water skin.

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent us, (we were) three hundred men, carrying our provisions on our necks. Our provisions ran out until there would be for (every) man among us one date (a day).” Then it was said: “O Abu ‘Abdullah, how can one date satisfy a man?” He said: “When we no longer had it, we realized how much it was worth. Then we came to the sea and found a whale that had been thrown up by the sea, and we ate from it for eighteen days.”

“I heard the Messenger of Allah say: ”Ali is part of me and I am part of him, and no one will represent me except ‘Ali.'”
