Sunan al-Nasa'i — The Book of the Commencement of the Prayer

“I prayed behind Abu Hurairah and he recited: In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, then he recited Umm Al-Qur’an (Al Fatihah), and when he reached: not (the way) of those who earned Your anger, nor of those who went astray, he said: ‘Amin and the people said ‘Amin. And every time he prostrated he said: ‘Allahu Akbar and when he stood up from sitting after two Rak’ahs he said: ‘Allahu Akbar’. And after he had said the Salam he said: ‘By the One in Whose Hand is my soul! My prayer most closely remembers the prayer of the Messenger of Allah.'”

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to make lean by training horses which he employed in the race.

We were sitting in the shade of the chamber of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) discussing (something) and when we mentioned the last hour, our voices rose high. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: The last hour will not come or happen until there appear ten signs before it : the rising of the sun in its place of setting, the coming forth of the beast, the coming forth of Gog and Magog, the Dajjal (Antichrist), (the descent of) Jesus son of Mary, the smoke, and three collapses of the earth: one in the west, one in the east, and one in the Arabian Peninsula. The last of that will be the emergence of a fire from Yemen, from the lowest part of Aden, and drive mankind to their place of assembly.

The last hour will not come before rising of the sun in its place of setting. When it rises (there) and the people see it, those who are on it (the earth) will believe. This is the time of which the Qur’anic verse says: “. . .no good will it do to a soul to believe in them then, if it believed not before nor earned righteousness through its faith.”

“Allah’s Messenger would recite the Qur’an in all conditions, as long as he was not Junub.”

“Allah’s Messenger would say each phrase of the call (for prayer) two times, for the Adhan and the Iqamah.”

“The Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) prohibited passing an unsheathed sword.”

that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The Salam is before talking.” With this chain it has been reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Do not invite anyone to the food until the Salam is given.”

that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Do not precede the Jews and the Christians with the Salam. And if one of you meets them in the path, then force them to its narrow portion.”

“Al-‘Ajam (non-Arabs) were mentioned before the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) so the Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘I am supported more by them, or, by some of them, than I am by you, or some of you.'”

“When the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to start I’tikaf, he would pray the Subh, then he would enter the place where he wanted to observe I’tikaf. He wanted to spend the last ten days of Ramadan in I’tikaf, so he ordered that a tent be set up for him.” Then ‘Aishah ordered that a tent be set up for her, and Hafash ordered that a tent be set up for her. When Zainab saw their two tents, she also ordered that a tent be set up for her. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saw that, he said: “It is righteousness that you seek?” Then he did not observe I’tikaf during Ramadan, and he observed I’tikaf during ten days of Shawwal.

“When the judge passes a judgement and does his best and gets it right, he will have two rewards, and if he passes a judgement and does his best and gets it wrong, he will have one reward.” (Sahih) Yazid (one of narrators) said : “So I Narrated it to Abu Bakr bin ‘Amr bin Hazm. He said: ‘This is how it was narrated to me by Abu Salamah from Abu Hurairah.’”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘At the end of time there will be people who will cut off camels’ humps and sheep’s tails. But what is cut from a living animal is dead.’”

* “What type of woven sheet?” He said: “A Shamlah.” She said: “O Messenger of Allah, I have woven this with my own hands for you to wear.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took it, since he needed it. He came out to us wearing it as a lower wrap. So-and-so the son of so-and-so.” – a man whose name he told that day – said: “O Messenger of Allah, how beautiful this sheet is! Let me wear it.” He said: “Yes.” When he went inside he folded it up and sent it to him. The people said to him: “By Allah, you have not done well. The Prophet (ﷺ) wore it because he needed it, then you asked for it, and you knew that he would not refuse anyone who asked him for something.” He said: “By Allah, I did not ask for it so that I could wear it, rather I asked for it so that it could be my shroud.” Sahl said: “And it became his shroud the day he died.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Whoever lets his lower wrap drag out of pride, Allah will not look at him on the Day of Resurrection.” He ( ‘Atiyyah) said “I met Ibn ‘Umar in Al-Balaat so I mentioned Abu Sa’eed’s hadith from the Prophet (ﷺ). So he said and pointed to his ears ‘My two ears heard it, and my heart preserved it.’ “
