The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever has doubt during his prayer, let him prostrate twice after he said the taslim.”
the Prophet sent a collector and he came to a man who brought him a slim, recently-weaned camel. The Prophet said: “We sent to Zakah collector of Allah and His Messenger, and so-and-so gave him a slim, recently-weaned camel. O Allah, do not bless him nor his camels!” News of that reached the man, so he came with a beautiful she-camel and said: “I repent to Allah and to His Prophet. ” The Prophet said: “O Allah, bless him and his camels!” (Daif)
“The Messenger of Allah stood up when the following was revealed to him: ‘And warn your tribe (O Muhammad) of near kindred,’ and said: ‘O Quraish! Buy your souls from your Lord, I cannot avail you anything before Allah. O Banu ‘Abd Manaf! I cannot avail you anything before Allah. O ‘Abbas bin ‘Abdul-Muttalib! I cannot avail you anything before Allah. O Safiyyah, paternal aunt of the Messenger of Allah! I cannot avail you anything before Allah. O Fatimah! Ask me for whatever you want, I cannot avail you anything before Allah.'”
‘Abdullah bin Sahl and Muhayysah set out for Khaibar because of some problem that had arisen. Someone came to Muhayysah and he told him that ‘Abdullah bin Sahl had been Killed and thrown into a pit, or a well. He came to the Jews and said: “By Allah, you killed him. ” They said: “By Allah, we did not kill him.”Then he went back to the Messenger of Allah and told him about that. Then he and Huwayysah – his brother who was older than him – and ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Sahl, came (to the Prophet). Muhayysah, who was the one who had been at Khaibar, began to speak, but the messenger of Allah said: “Let the elder speak first,” So Huwayysah elder speaks first.” So Huwayysah spoke, then Muhayysah spoke. The Messenger of Allah said: “Either (the Jews) will pay the Diyah for your comanion, or war will be declared on them.” The Messenger of Allah sent a letter to that effect (to the Jews) and they wrote back saying: “By Allah, we did not kill him.” The Messenger of Allah said to Huwayysah. Muhayysah and ‘Abdur-Rahman: “Will you swear an oath establishing your claim to the blood money of your companion?” They said: “No.” He said: “Should the jews swear an oath for you? They said: “They are not Muslims.” So the Messenger of Allah paid (the Diyah) himself, and he sent one hundred she-camels to their abodes. Sahl said: “A red she-camel from among them kicked me.”
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then said: Return to them (Hawazin) their women and their sons. If any of you withholds anything from this booty, we have six camels for him from the first booty which Allah gives us. The Prophet (ﷺ) then approached a camel, and taking a hair from its hump said: O people, I get nothing of this booty, not even this (meanwhile raising his two fingers) but the fifth, and the fifth is returned to you, so hand over threads and needles. A man got up with a ball of hair in his hand and said: I took this to repair the cloth under a pack-saddle. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: You can have what belongs to me and to the Banu al-Muttalib. He said: If it produces the result that I now realise, I have no desire for it.
A woman said: Messenger of Allah, my mother suddenly died; if it had not happened, she would have given sadaqah (charity) and donated (something). Will it suffice if I give sadaqah on her behalf? The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Yes, give sadaqah on her behalf.
A man stood on the day of Conquest (of Mecca) and said: Messenger of Allah, I have vowed to Allah that if He grants conquest of Mecca at your hands, I shall pray two rak’ahs in Jerusalem. He replied: Pray here. He repeated (his statement) to him and he said: Pray here. He again repeated (his statement) to him. He (the Prophet) replied: Pursue your own course, then. Abu Dawud said: A similar tradition has been narrated by ‘Abd al-Rahman b. ‘Awf from the Prophet (ﷺ).
I was an adolescent boy. I hunted a hare and roasted it. Abu Talha sent its hunch through me to the Prophet (ﷺ), so I brought it to him and he accepted it.
A man emancipated his share in a slave. The Prophet (ﷺ) allowed his (full) emancipation, and required him to pay the rest of his price.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If a man emancipates a slave shared by him with another man, his emancipation rests with him (who emancipated his share). This is the version of Ibn Suwaid.
If anyone emancipates his share in a slave, he is to be completely emancipated by his money if he has money. But if he has no money, a fair price for the slave should be fixed, and the slave is required to work for his master according to the proportion of his price, but he must not be overburdened. Abu Dawud said: In the version of both the narrators the words are “he will be required to work and must not be overburdened”. This is the version of ‘Ali.
The king of Rome presented a fur of silk brocade to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he wore it. The scene that his hands were moving (while wearing the robe) is before my eyes. He then sent it to Ja’far who wore it and came to him. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: I did not send it to you to wear. He asked: What should I do with it? He replied: Send it to your brother Negus.
my companion went to the mosque before me. I went there after him and sat beside him. He asked me: Did you hear the preaching of AbuRayhanah?

Abu Dawud said: The solitary point in this tradition (not supported by other traditions) is the report about the signet-ring.
There is a devil along with each bell.
A man came. Uthman’s version has: Sa’d ibn AbuWaqqas came. He stood at the door. Uthman’s version has: (He stood) facing the door. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: Away from it, (stand) this side or that side. Asking permission is meant to escape from the look of an eye.
I was sitting in one of the meeting of the Ansar. Abu Musa came terrified. We asked him; what makes you terrified? He replied: ‘Umar sent for me; so I went to him and asked his permission three times, but he did not permit me (to enter), so I came back. He asked; what has prevented you from coming to me? I replied: I came and asked permission three times, but it was not granted to me (so I returned). The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) has said: When one of you asks permission three times and it is not granted to him, he should go away. He (‘Umar’) said; establish the proof of it. So Abu Sa’id said: the youngest of the people will accompany you. So Abu Sa’id got up with him and testified.

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “A man among those before you was called to reckon and nothing good was found with him. Except that he was a wealthy man so he used to mix with the pople and he would tell his servant to be lenient with the insolvent. So Allah, Mighty and Sublime is He, said: ‘We are more worthy of that than him, so be lenient with him.'” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih. Abu Al-Yasar is Ka’b bin ‘Amr.
“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! We expect to meet the enemy tomorrow and we have no knives.’ So the Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘As long as it causes blood to flow, and Allah’s Name has been mentioned over it, then eat it, provided that it was not done with a tooth or nail. And I will tell you why: As for the tooth it is a bone, and as for the nail it is the knife of the Ethiopians.'”
“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. And this Hadith has been reported through other routes from Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, from the Prophet (ﷺ).
“On the day of the Conquest of Makkah, I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying: ‘This is not to be battled over after today, until the Day of Judgement.'” There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Abbas, Sulaiman bin Surad, and Muti’ This Hadith is Hasan Sahih, and it is a narration of Zakariyya bin Abi Za’idah from Ash-Sha’bi, we do not know of it except from his narration.
That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “None of the people of Paradise would wish to return to the world except for the martyr who indeed would love to return to the world saying that he would love to be killed ten times in Allah’s cause because of what he has seen of the honor that He has given him.” This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever says (something) about the Qur’an according to his own opinion and he is correct, yet he has committed a mistake.” This Hadith is Gharib. Some of the people of Hadith have criticized Suhail bin Abi Hazm. This is how it has been reported from some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ), and others. They were very stern about this – about explaining the Qur’an without knowledge. As for what has been related from Mujãhid, Qatadah and others, among the people of knowledge, that they would interpret the Qur’an, then it should not be thought about them that they would say something about the Qur’an, or interpret it without knowledge, or according to their own intellect. Rather that which proves what we have said has been reported from them, that they would not say something from themselves without knowledge. Husain bin Mahdi Al-Basri narrated to us (he said: AbdurRazzaq narrated to us, from Ma’mar, from Qatadah who said): “There is no Ayah in the Qur’an except that I have heard something about it.” Ibn Abi ‘Umar narrated to us (he said): “Sufyan bin ‘Uyainah narrated to us, from Al-A’mash who said: ‘Mujãhid said: If you recited the recitation of Ibn Mas’ud, you would not need to ask Ibn ‘Abbãs about much of what you ask him regarding the Qur’an.”
that ‘Aishah the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “I asked about the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about this Ayah: And those who give that which they give with their hearts full of fear… (23:60)” ‘Aishah said: “Are they those who drink Khamr and steal?” He said: “No, O daughter of As-Siddiq. They are those who fast, perform Salat, give charity while they fear that their Lord will not accept it from them: It is these who hasten to do good deeds, and they are the foremost of them (23:61).”
from Ibn ‘Abbas, regarding the saying of Allah, Most High: Alif Lam Mim. The Romans have been defeated. In the nearest land (30:1-3)” he said: “Ghulibat wa Ghalabat (defeated and then victorious).” He said: “The idolaters wanted the Persians to be victorious over the Romans because they too were people who worshiped idols, while the Muslims wanted the Romans to be victorious over the Persians because they were people of the Book. This was mentioned to Abu Bakr, so Abu Bakr mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he said: ‘They will certainly prevail.’ Abu Bakr mentioned that to them, and they said: ‘Make a wager between us and you; if we win, we shall get this and that, and if you win, you shall get this or that.’ He made the term five years, but they (the Romans) were not victorious. They mentioned that to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he said: “Why did you not make it less (than)” – He (one of the narrators said): I think he said: “ten?” He said: Sa’eed said: “Al-Bid’ is what is less than then” – he said: “Afterwards the Romans have been victorious.” He said: “That is what Allah Most High said: ‘Alif Lam Mim. The Romans have been defeated’ up to His saying: ‘And on the day, the believers will rejoice – with the help of Allah. He helps whom He wills (30:1-5).’ Sufyan said: “I heard that they were victorious over them on the Day of Badr.”
“When (the following) was revealed: ‘Alif Lam Mim. The Romans have been defeated. In the nearest land, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious in Bid’ years (30:1-4).’ – on the day that these Ayat were revealed, the Persians had defeated the Romans, and the Muslims had wanted the Romans to be victorious over them, because they were the people of the Book. So Allah said about that: ‘And on that day, the believers will rejoice – with the help of Allah. He helps whom He wills, and He is the Almighty, the Most Merciful (30:4 & 5). The Quraish wanted the Persians to be victorious since they were not people of the Book, nor did they believe in the Resurrection. So when Allah revealed these Ayat, Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, went out, proclaiming throughout Makkah: ‘Alif Lam Mim. The Romans have been defeated. In the nearest land, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious, in Bid’ years (30:1-4).’ Some of the Quraish said: ‘Then this is (a bet) between us and you. Your companion claims that the Romans will defeat the Persians in Bid’ years, so why have have a bet on that between us and you?’ Abu Bakr said: ‘Yes.’ This was before betting has been forbidden. So Abu Bakr and the idolaters made a bet, and they said to Abu Bakr: ‘What do you think – Bid’ means something between three and nine years, so let us agree on the middle.’ So they agreed on six years; Then six years passed without the Romans being victorious. The idolaters took what they won in the bet from Abu Bakr. When the seventh year came and the Romans were finally victorious over the Persians, the Muslims rebuked Abu Bakr for agreeing to six years. He said: ‘Because Allah said: ‘In Bid’ years.’ At that time, many people became Muslims.”
“I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about the saying of Allah, Most High: ‘And We sent him to a hundred thousand, or even more (37:147). He said: ‘Twenty thousand (more).'”
“I was hiding beneath the covering of the Ka’bah, and three men came along – a man from the Quraish, and two of his brothers-in-law from Thaqif, or a man from Thaqif and two of his brothers-in-law from Quraish. Their bellies were fat, and they did not have much understanding. They said something that I could not understand, then one of them said: ‘Do you think that Allah can hear what we are talking about?’ Another said: ‘If we raise our voices, He will hear it, but if we do not raise our voices, He will not hear it.’ The other one said: ‘If He can hear something from us, then He can hear all of it.'” ‘Abdullah said: “I mentioned that to the Prophet (ﷺ), so Allah revealed: ‘And you have not been hiding yourselves, lest your ears and your eyes and your skin should testify against you…’ up to His saying: ‘…and you have become of those utterly lost! (42:22 & 23)”
“When he reached the evening, the Prophet (ﷺ) used to say, ‘We have reached the evening, and the Dominion has reached the evening, while belonging to Allah. And all praise belongs to Allah. None has the right to be worshiped but Allah, alone, without partner. (Amsaina wa amsal-mulku lillāh, wal-ḥamdullilāh, wa lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu)’ – I think he said : – ‘To Him belongs the Dominion, and to Him is the praise, and He is capable of all things. I ask You for the good that is in this night, and the good of what is after it, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of this night, and the evil of what is after it, and I seek refuge in You from laziness and helpless old age. And I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the Fire and the punishment of the grave (Lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, wa huwa `alā kulli shai’in qadīr. Asa’luka khaira mā fī hādhihil-lailah, wa khaira mā ba`dahā, wa a`ūdhu bika min sharri hādhihil-lailati wa sharri mā ba`dahā, wa a`ūdhu bika minal-kasali wa sū’il-kibar, wa a`ūdhu bika min `adhābin-nāri wa `adhābil-qabr).’ And when he reached the morning, he (ﷺ) used to say, ‘We have reached the morning, and the Dominion has reached the morning, while belonging to Allah. And all praise belongs to Allah (Aṣbaḥnā wa aṣbaḥal-mulku lillāh, wal-ḥamdulillāh).’”
The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: “Should I not direct you to the chief of supplications for forgiveness? ‘O Allah, You are my Lord, there is none worthy of worship except You, You created me and I am Your slave. I am adhering to Your covenant and Your promise as much as I am able to, I seek refuge in You from the evil of what I have done. I admit to You your blessings upon me, and I admit to my sins. So forgive me, for there is none who can forgive sins except You (Allāhumma anta rabbī lā ilāha illā anta, khalaqtanī wa ana `abduka, wa ana `alā `ahdika wa wa`dika ma-staṭa`tu. A`ūdhu bika min sharri ma ṣana`tu, wa abū’u ilayka bini`matika `alayya wa a`tarifu bidhunūbī faghfirlī dhunūbī innahu lā yaghfirudh-dhunūba illā ant).’ None of you says it when he reaches the evening, and a decree comes upon him before he reaches morning, except that Paradise becomes obligatory upon him. And none says it when he reaches the morning, and a decree comes upon him before he reaches evening, except that Paradise becomes obligatory for him.”

when he intended to undertake a journey, Ibn `Umar used to say to a person to “Come close to me so that I may bid you farewell as the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to bid us farewell.” Then he would say: “I entrust to Allah your religion, and your trusts, and the last of your deeds (Astawdi`ullāha dīnaka wa amānataka wa khawātīma `amalik).”
“My father narrated to me, from my grandfather, that he heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: ‘Whoever says: “I seek forgiveness from Allah, the Magnificent, whom there is none worthy of worship but Him, the Living, Al-Qayyum, and I repent to him,” (Astaghfirullāhal-`Aẓīm alladhī lā ilāha illā huwal-Ḥayyul-Qayyūmu wa atūbu ilaih) then Allah will forgive him, even if he fled from battle.’”
that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “What is between my house and my Minbar is a garden from the gardens of Paradise.” And with this chain, from the Prophet (ﷺ), that he said: “One Salat in this Masjid of mine is better than one thousand prayers in any other Masjid, except for Al-Masjid Al-Haram.”
