Sunan al-Nasa'i — The Book of Purification

“The Prophet (ﷺ) granted us a dispensation when traveling, allowing us not to take off our Khuffs for three days and three nights.”

“I asked Safwan bin ‘Assal about wiping over the Khuffs, and he said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to tell us, when we were travelling, to wipe over our Khuffs and not take them off for three nights in the event of defecating, urinating or sleeping; only in the case of Janabah.'”

“A man from among the Ansar accepted Islam, then he apostatized and went back to Shirk. Then he regretted that, and sent word to his people (saying): ‘Ask the Messenger of Allah and said: ‘So and so regrets (what he did), and he has told us to ask you if there is any repentance for him?’ Then the Verses: ‘How shall Allah guide a people who disbelieved after their Belief up to His saying: Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful’ was revealed. So he sent word to him, and he accepted Islam.”

‘When we were traveling, Allah’s Messenger would order us not to remove our Khuff for three days and nights, except for Janabah, but not for defecating, urinating, and sleep.”

“Surely, of the excellence of a person’s Islam is that he leaves what does not concern him.”

“The Messenger of Allah recited this Ayah: ‘That Day it will declare its information.’ He said: “Do you know what its information is?” They said: “Allah and His Messenger know better.” He said: “That it testifies about what every male or female slave (of Allah) did upon its surface. It says: ‘He did this and that on this day.’ This is its information.”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘My Ummah will continue to adhere to the Fitrah so long as they do not delay the Maghrib until the stars have come out.” (Hasan)Abu ‘Abdullah bin Majah said: I heard Muhammed bin Yahya saying: ‘The people in Baghdad were confused in narrating this Hadith. Abu Bakr Al-A’yan and I went to ‘Awwam bin ‘Abbad bin ‘Awwam and he brought out to us the book of his father, and this Hadith was in it.'”

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘The greater the distance from the mosque, the greater the reward.'”

“Vermin.”

“I never saw the Messenger of Allah mention his parents together for anyone except Sa’d bin Malik. He said to him on the Day of Uhud: ‘Shoot, Sa’d! May my father and mother be sacrificed for you!'”
