[Machine] I witnessed Eid with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He said, "My wife disagreed with me when I went to offer the prayer for my sacrifice. She slaughtered it and prepared food from it." He continued, "After the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished praying with us and left, she brought me food that had already been prepared from the sacrifice. I asked her, 'What is this?' She replied, 'We slaughtered your sacrifice and made food for you to eat when you return.' I said to her, 'By Allah, I was afraid that this would not be appropriate.' So I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him about it. He said, 'There is nothing wrong with eating from an animal that was slaughtered before we finished our sacrifices.' Then I sought a fat tail for myself, but I did not find it. I went to him and said, 'By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I searched for a fat tail but did not find it.' He said, 'Then seek a piece of meat from the lamb and roast it.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ instructed him to roast a piece of meat from the lamb when the fat tail could not be found."  

شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺقَالَ فَخَالَفَتْ امْرَأَتِي حَيْثُ غَدَوْتُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ إِلَى أُضْحِيَّتِي فَذَبَحَتْهَا وَصَنَعَتْ مِنْهَا طَعَامًا قَالَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَانْصَرَفْتُ إِلَيْهَا جَاءَتْنِي بِطَعَامٍ قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ فَقُلْتُ أَنَّى هَذَا؟ قَالَتْ أُضْحِيَّتُكَ ذَبَحْنَاهَا وَصَنَعْنَا لَكَ مِنْهَا طَعَامًا لِتَغَدَّى إِذَا جِئْتَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا وَاللهِ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ هَذَا لَا يَنْبَغِي قَالَ فَجِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ لَيْسَتْ بِشَيْءٍ مَنْ ذَبَحَ قَبْلَ أَنْ نَفْرُغَ مِنْ نُسُكِنَا فَلَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ فَضَحِّ قَالَ فَالْتَمَسْتُ مُسِنَّةً فَلَمْ أَجِدْهَا قَالَ فَجِئْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَقَدِ الْتَمَسْتُ مُسِنَّةً فَمَا وَجَدْتُهَا قَالَ فَالْتَمِسْ جَذَعًا مِنَ الضَّأْنِ فَضَحِّ بِهِ قَالَ فَرَخَّصَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْجَذَعِ مِنَ الضَّأْنِ فَضَحَّى بِهِ حين لَمْ يَجِدِ الْمُسِنَّةَ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "One should not be whipped with more than ten lashes for a violation that is below the boundaries set by Allah." Abdullah said, "My father told me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to us but did not mention it from his own father."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا يُجْلَدُ فَوْقَ عَشَرَةِ أَسْوَاطٍ فِيمَا دُونَ حَدٍّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللهِ ﷻ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ قَالَ أَبِي كَذَا قَالَ لَنَا لَمْ يَقُلْ عَنْ أَبِيهِ  

“I fought a man and killed him, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ awarded me his spoils.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2836)  

بَارَزْتُ رَجُلًا فَقَتَلْتُهُ فَنَفَّلَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَلَبَهُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ saw a man eating with his left hand, so he said, "eat with your right hand." The man replied, "I cannot." The Prophet ﷺ said, "you are not able?" The man replied, "no."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ فَقَالَ كُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ فَقَالَ لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ فَقَالَ لَا اسْتَطَعْتَ قَالَ فَمَا رَجَعَتْ إِلَيْهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "Who killed this?" They said, "Ibn Al-Akwa." So he said to him, "Plunder it."  

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ قَتَلَ هَذَا؟ فَقَالُوا ابْنُ الْأَكْوَعِ فَقَالَ لَهُ سَلَبُهُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ had a servant boy named Rabah.  

كَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ غُلَامٌ يُسَمَّى رَبَاحًا  

We used to offer the Friday prayer along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and return (to our homes) while no shade of the walls was seen (at that time). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1085)   

كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْجُمُعَةَ ثُمَّ نَرْجِعُ فَلَا نَجِدُ لِلْحِيطَانِ فَيْئًا يُسْتَظَلُّ فِيهِ  

[Machine] Our household stayed with Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, and the Prophet ﷺ commanded him over us.  

بَيَّتْنَا هَوَازِنَ مَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ وَكَانَ أَمَّرَهُ عَلَيْنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ  

[Machine] "Our slogan was the night we spent in Hawazin with Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him to lead us, so he united the tribes and I personally killed seven people from the Abyat tribe that night."  

كَانَ شِعَارُنَا لَيْلَةَ بَيَّتْنَا فِي هَوَازِنَ مَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ أَمَّرَهُ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمِتْ أَمِتْ وَقَتَّلْتُ بِيَدَيَّ لَيْلَتَئِذٍ سَبْعَةً أَهْلَ أَبْيَاتٍ  

[Machine] He said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying to a man known as Busru ibn Raa'i al-Ir, who had a paralyzed right hand, 'Eat with your right hand.' The man replied, 'I am unable to.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'You will not be able to.' Then the man's right hand connected to his mouth and he was able to eat with it." Abu al-Nadr said in his narration, "Ibn Raa'i al-Ir was one of the bravest."  

قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِرَجُلٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ بُسْرُ ابْنُ رَاعِي الْعِيرِ أَبْصَرَهُ يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ فَقَالَ كُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ فَقَالَ لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ فَقَالَ لَا اسْتَطَعْتَ قَالَ فَمَا وَصَلَتْ يَمِينُهُ إِلَى فَمِهِ بَعْدُ وقَالَ أَبُو النَّضْرِ فِي حَدِيثِهِ ابْنُرَاعِي الْعِيرِ مِنْ أَشْجَعَ  

He who draws the sword against us is not of us. (Using translation from Muslim 99)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَلَّ عَلَيْنَا السَّيْفَ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا  

[Machine] I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when a man sneezed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "May Allah have mercy on you." Then he sneezed again and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The man has a cold."  

كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَطَسَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَرْحَمُكَ اللهُ ثُمَّ عَطَسَ أُخْرَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الرَّجُلُ مَزْكُومٌ  

[Machine] "We went out with Abu Bakr ibn Abi Quhafa, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us saying, 'We have gone for a raid, so visit Ghazara.' When we approached the water, Abu Bakr commanded us and we saddled the horses. Then, after the Fajr prayer, Abu Bakr commanded us and we launched the surprise attack. We killed those who we had to kill by the water,' said Salamah. Then, I looked at a group of people - men, women, and children - heading towards the mountain while I was chasing them in their tracks. I was afraid they would reach the mountain ahead of me, so I shot an arrow that landed between them and the mountain. I brought them and drove them towards Abu Bakr, until I met him by the water. With them was a woman from Ghazara, with a hideous mark on her face, and she had her daughter with her, who was among the most beautiful of the Arabs,' he said. Abu Bakr then married her to me,' Salamah said. However, I did not remove her veil until I arrived in Madinah. Then, when I untied her, I didn't remove her veil,' he said. Then, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ met me in the marketplace and said to me, 'Salamah, give me the woman.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, she has pleased me greatly, and I did not remove her veil.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained silent and left me. Then, the next morning, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ met me in the marketplace and said, 'Salamah, give me the woman for the sake of Allah, your father.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, she has pleased me greatly, and she is for you, O Messenger of Allah.' So, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent her to the people of Makkah, who had Muslim captives in their hands. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ransomed those captives with this woman."  

خَرَجْنَا مَعَ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ وَأَمَّرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَيْنَا قَالَ غَزَوْنَا فَزَارَةَ فَلَمَّا دَنَوْنَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ أَمَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَعَرَّسْنَا قَالَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّيْنَا الصُّبْحَ أَمَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَشَنَيْنَا الْغَارَةَ فَقَتَلْنَا عَلَى الْمَاءِ مَنْ قَتَلْنَا قَالَ سَلَمَةُ ثُمَّ نَظَرْتُ إِلَى عُنُقٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ فِيهِ الذُّرِّيَّةُ وَالنِّسَاءُ نَحْوَ الْجَبَلِ وَأَنَا أَعْدُو فِي آثَارِهِمْ فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ يَسْبِقُونِي إِلَى الْجَبَلِ فَرَمَيْتُ بِسَهْمٍ فَوَقَعَبَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْجَبَلِ قَالَ فَجِئْتُ بِهِمْ أَسُوقُهُمْ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُهُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَفِيهِمْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ فَزَارَةَ عَلَيْهَا قَشْعٌ مِنْ أَدَمٍ وَمَعَهَا ابْنَةٌ لَهَا مِنْ أَحْسَنِ الْعَرَبِ قَالَ فَنَفَّلَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ ابْنَتَهَا قَالَ فَمَا كَشَفْتُ لَهَا ثَوْبًا حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ ثُمَّ بِتُّ فَلَمْ أَكْشِفْ لَهَا ثَوْبًا قَالَ فَلَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي السُّوقِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا سَلَمَةُ هَبْ لِي الْمَرْأَةَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَاللهِ لَقَدْ أَعْجَبَتْنِي وَمَا كَشَفْتُ لَهَا ثَوْبًا قَالَ فَسَكَتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَتَرَكَنِي حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ لَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي السُّوقِ فَقَالَ يَا سَلَمَةُ هَبْ لِي الْمَرْأَةَ لِلَّهِ أَبُوكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَاللهِ أَعْجَبَتْنِي مَا كَشَفْتُ لَهَا ثَوْبًا وَهِيَ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ فَبَعَثَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ وَفِي أَيْدِيهِمْ أُسَارَى مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَفَدَاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِتِلْكَ الْمَرْأَةِ  

"On the day of Khaibar, my brother fought fiercely alongside the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then his sword recoiled upon him and killed him. The Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, complaining about that, said: 'A man has died by his own weapon.'" Salamah said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned from Khaibar and I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, do you permit me to recite some lines of Rajaz verse to you?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him permission but 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "Think what you are saying." "I said: 'By Allah, if Allah had not guided us we would not have been guided We would not have given in charity nor prayed' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'You have spoken the truth.' (I continued:) 'Send down tranquility upon us, And make us steadfast when we meet the enemy. For the idolators have transgressed against us.' When I completed my Rajaz verse, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Who said that?' I said: 'My brother.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'May Allah have mercy on him.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, some people are afraid to offer the (funeral) prayer for him, and they are saying that he is a man who died by his own weapon.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'He died striving as a Mujahid.'" Ibn Shihab said: "Then I asked a son of Salamah bin Al-Akwa', and he narrated a similar report to me from his father, except that he said: 'When I said: Some people are afraid to offer the (funeral) prayer for him, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: They lied. He died striving as Mujahid, and he will have a twofold reward, and he gestured with two of his fingers.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3150)  

لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ خَيْبَرَ قَاتَلَ أَخِي قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَارْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِ سَيْفُهُ فَقَتَلَهُ فَقَالَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ وَشَكُّوا فِيهِ رَجُلٌ مَاتَ بِسِلَاحِهِ شَكُّوا فِي بَعْضِ أَمْرِهِ قَالَ سَلَمَةُ فَقَفَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتَأْذَنُ لِي أَنْ أَرْجُزَ بِكَ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ اعْلَمْ مَا تَقُولُ قَالَ فَقُلْتُوَاللهِ لَوْلَا اللهُ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَافَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَدَقْتَ [البحر الرجز]فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَاوَالْمُشْرِكُونَ قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَافَلَمَّا قَضَيْتُ رَجَزِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ قَالَ هَذَا؟ قُلْتُ أَخِي قَالَهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَرْحَمُهُ اللهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَاللهِ إِنَّ نَاسًا لَيَهَابُونَ أَنْ يُصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَيَقُولُونَ رَجُلٌ مَاتَ بِسِلَاحِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَاتَ جَاهِدًا مُجَاهِدًا قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ مِثْلَ الَّذِي حَدَّثَنِي عَنْهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ غَيْرَ أَنَّ ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ قَالَ مَعَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَهَابُونَ الصَّلَاةَ عَلَيْهِ كَذَبُوا مَاتَ جَاهِدًا مُجَاهِدًا فَلَهُ أَجْرُهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ  

[Machine] Narrated by Jabir ibn Abdullah and Salamah ibn Al-Akwa, two companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , they said: "We were in a battle when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us and said: 'Verily, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Enjoy yourselves…'"  

عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَسَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُمَا قَالَا كُنَّا فِي غَزَاةٍ فَجَاءَنَا رَسُولُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ اسْتَمْتِعُوا  

[Machine] "I went out with Abu Bakr in the battles of Hawazin, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gifted me with a servant girl. He sent her to Mecca, and some Muslims were ransomed with her."  

خَرَجْتُ مَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فِي غَزَاةِ هَوَازِنَ فَنَفَّلَنِي جَارِيَةً فَاسْتَوْهَبَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَبَعَثَ بِهَا إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَفَدَى بِهَا أُنَاسًا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever tells a lie about me deliberately, let him take his place in Hell.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 584)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ مُتَعَمِّدًا فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ ordered a man who embraced Islam to give the call to prayer among the people on the day of Ashura. Whoever was fasting, let him complete his fast, and whoever had eaten, let him not eat anything and complete his fast."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمَرَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَسْلَمَ أَنْ يُؤَذِّنَ فِي النَّاسِ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ مَنْ كَانَ صَائِمًا فَلْيُتِمَّ صَوْمَهُ وَمَنْ كَانَ أَكَلَ فَلَا يَأْكُلْ شَيْئًا وَلِيُتِمَّ صَوْمَهُ  

[Machine] "He sought permission from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the desert, and he granted him permission."  

أَنَّهُ اسْتَأْذَنَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْبَدْوِ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ  

[Machine] I pledged to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with the people in Hudaybiyah, then I sat aside. When the people dispersed from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "O son of Al-Akwa, don't you give the pledge?" I replied, "I have already given the pledge, O Messenger of Allah." He also asked, "Why did you give the pledge?" I answered, "For loyalty and obedience until death."  

بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مَعَ النَّاسِ فِي الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ ثُمَّ قَعَدْتُ مُتَنَحِّيًا فَلَمَّا تَفَرَّقَ النَّاسُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَا ابْنَ الْأَكْوَعِ أَلَا تُبَايِعُ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ قَدْ بَايَعْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ أَيْضًا قُلْتُ عَلَامَ بَايَعْتُمْ؟ قَالَ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ  

[Machine] I was sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when a funeral passed by. He asked, "Did the deceased leave behind any debt?" They said, "No." He asked, "Did he leave behind anything?" They said, "No." He then performed the funeral prayer for the deceased. Then another funeral passed by and he asked the same questions, to which they replied the same answers. He then performed the funeral prayer for the second deceased. After that, a third funeral passed by and he asked the same questions. They answered, "Yes, three dinars." He then gestured with his fingers three times. Finally, they brought the third deceased and he asked the same questions. They answered, "Yes." He asked, "Did he leave behind anything?" They said, "No." He said, "Pray upon your companion." Then, a man from the Ansar said, "He had a debt on me, O Messenger of Allah." The Prophet ﷺ then performed the funeral prayer for him.  

كُنْتُ جَالِسًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأُتِيَ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ دَيْنٍ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِأُخْرَى فَقَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ دَيْنٍ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ ثَلَاثَةَ دَنَانِيرَ قَالَ فَقَالَ بِأَصَابِعِهِ ثَلَاثَ كَيَّاتٍ قَالَ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِالثَّالِثَةِ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ دَيْنٍ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ عَلَيَّ دَيْنُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] Aamir was a poet who descended saying,

"Allah, if it weren't for You, we wouldn't have been guided,

nor would we have been charitable or prayed,

so forgive us for what we have done,

and keep us steadfast if we encounter hardship.

Bestow tranquility upon us when we are in distress.

Indeed, when we are called, we respond,

and through the calling, our calamities are lifted."

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "Who said this?"

They replied, "Ibn Al-Akwa."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "May Allah have mercy on him."

Then a man said, "You have done us a great favor, O Messenger of Allah."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "He will be rewarded twice for it."

Then a man struck a Jew from Bani Il with a whip,

and the tip of the sword hit his knee, causing a fly to fall into his eye.

People said, "His work was in vain, so he killed himself."

The man said, "I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ after he arrived in Madinah, and he was in the masjid. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, they claim that Aamir's work was in vain.' He asked, 'Who says that?' I said, 'Some of the Ansar, including so and so.' He said, 'Whoever says that is lying. He will be rewarded twice for it. He was a striving and fighting Arab who walked among us, and he increased us in honor.'"  

كَانَ عَامِرٌ رَجُلًا شَاعِرًا فَنَزَلَ يَحْدُو قَالَ وَيَقُولُ[البحر الرجز]اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَافَاغْفِرْ فِداءً لَكَ مَا أَتَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَاوَأَلْقِيَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا إِنَّا إِذَا صِيحَ بِنَا أَتَيْنَاوَبِالصِّيَاحِ عَوَّلُوا عَلَيْنَافَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ هَذَا الْحَادِي؟ قَالُوا ابْنُ الْأَكْوَعِقَالَ يَرْحَمُهُ اللهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ وَجَبَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَوْلَا أَمْتَعْتَنَا بِهِ قَالَ فَأُصِيبَ ذَهَبَ يَضْرِبُ رَجُلًا يَهُودِيًّا مِنْ إِلٍّ فَأَصَابَ ذُبَابُ السَّيْفِ عَيْنَ رُكْبَتِهِ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُ قَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ قَالَ فَجِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ أَنْ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ وَهُوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ عَامِرًا حَبِطَ عَمَلُهُ قَالَ وَمَنْ يَقُولُهُ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ رِجَالٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ مِنْهُمْ فُلَانٌ وَفُلَانٌ قَالَ كَذَبَ مَنْ قَالَهُ إِنَّ لَهُ لَأَجْرَيْنِ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ وَإِنَّهُ لَجَاهِدٌ مُجَاهِدٌ وَقَلَّ عَرَبِيٌّ مَشَى بِهَا يَزِيدُكَ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ commanded his caller on the day of Ashura that whoever had eaten something before dawn should continue fasting, and whoever had not eaten anything before dawn should complete his fast. Narrated by Safwan from Yazid ibn Abi Ubayd from Salamah, who said: When we arrived at Khaybar, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw fires being lit and asked, "Why are these fires being lit?" They said, "For cooking the meat of domestic donkeys." He said, "Break the pots and pour out what is in them." Then a man from the people stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we pour out what is in them and wash them?" He said, "Is that necessary?"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمَرَ مُنَادِيَهُ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ أَنَّ مَنْ كَانَاصْطَبَحَ فَلْيُمْسِكْ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَصْطَبِحُ فَلْيُتِمَّ صَوْمَهُ 16513/1 حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ لَمَّا قَدِمْنَا خَيْبَرَ رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نِيرَانًا تُوقَدُ فَقَالَ عَلَامَ تُوقَدُ هَذِهِ النِّيرَانُ؟ قَالُوا عَلَى لُحُومِ الْحُمُرِ الْأَهْلِيَّةِ قَالَ كَسِّرُوا الْقُدُورَ وَأَهْرِيقُوا مَا فِيهَا قَالَ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنُهْرِيقُ مَا فِيهَا وَنَغْسِلُهَا؟ قَالَ أَوَ ذَاكَ  

I saw the trace of a wound in Salama's leg. I said to him, "O Abu Muslim! What is this wound?" He said, "This was inflicted on me on the day of Khaibar and the people said, 'Salama has been wounded.' Then I went to the Prophet ﷺ and he puffed his saliva in it (i.e. the wound) thrice., and since then I have not had any pain in it till this hour." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4206)  

رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ ضَرْبَةٍ فِي سَاقِ سَلَمَةَ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا مُسْلِمٍ مَا هَذِهِ الضَّرْبَةُ؟ قَالَ هَذِهِ ضَرْبَةٌ أُصِبْتُهَا يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ قَالَ يَوْمَ أُصِبْتُهَا قَالَ النَّاسُ أُصِيبَ سَلَمَةُ فَأُتِيَ بِي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَنَفَثَ فِيهِ ثَلَاثَ نَفَثَاتٍ فَمَا اشْتَكَيْتُهَا حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ  

[Machine] He said, "Today is the day of the infants" and added to it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed me on his riding animal.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَالْيَوْمُ يَوْمُ الرُّضَّعِ وَزَادَ فِيهِ وَأَرْدَفَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ  

[Machine] "I used to come with Salamah to the mosque and pray with the cylinder that was by the Quran. So I said, 'O Abu Muslim, I see that you are keen on praying with this cylinder.' He said, 'Indeed, I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying with it.'"  

كُنْتُ آتِي مَعَ سَلَمَةَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَيُصَلِّي مَعَ الْأُسْطُوَانَةِ الَّتِي عِنْدَ الْمُصْحَفِ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا مُسْلِمٍ أَرَاكَ تَتَحَرَّى الصَّلَاةَ عِنْدَ هَذِهِ الْأُسْطُوَانَةِ قَالَ فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَحَرَّى الصَّلَاةَ عِنْدَهَا  

To the tribe of Aslam Allah has granted safety and to the tribe of Ghifar Allah has granted pardon. Verily it is not I that say this, but (it is) Allah the Exalted and Glorious. (who) says this. (Using translation from Muslim 2516)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَسْلَمُ سَالَمَهَا اللهُ وَغِفَارٌ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَهَا أَمَا وَاللهِ مَا أَنَا قُلْتُهُ وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ قَالَهُ  

[Machine] We arrived with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to Hudaybiyyah when we were fourteen hundred and fifty and we had fifty sheep that didn't have enough water, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat on its mountains and either he invoked (Allah for rain) or he spread his hands, so we scattered, and we got water. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called for the pledge of allegiance to be given in the trunk of a tree, so he pledged allegiance to him. The first of the people pledged allegiance to him, and he continued until he reached the middle of the people. He said, "O Salamah, pledge allegiance to me." I said, "I have already pledged allegiance to you among the first of the people, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Also pledge (again)." So I pledged allegiance to him. Then he said, "Where is your bracelet or your ring that you gave me?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah, my paternal uncle, 'Amir, met me as a stranger, so I gave it to him." He said, "You are like the one whom Allah said about him: 'O Allah, enrich me (with wealth) and make poor (impoverish) me who is most beloved to me than myself.' " Then he laughed. Then the disbelievers sent a peace envoy to us until some of our people met with some of them. He said, "And you used to sell the horse of Talhah bin 'Ubaidullah, I used to feed and drink from it. I left my family and wealth as an emigrant to Allah and His Messenger. When we reconciled between us and the people of Makkah, and some of us started to mix with others, I came to the tree, so I swept its thorns and laid in its shade. Then four men from the people of Makkah came to me while they were disbelievers acting with aggression towards the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. So I moved away from them to another tree, and they hung their weapons and lay down. While they were like that, a caller from the bottom of the valley called, 'O family of Emigrants, Ibn Zunaym has been killed.' So I unsheathed my sword and went towards the four. I took their weapons and turned them into a pile of straw. Then I said, 'By the One who honored Muhammad, no man among you shall raise his head except that I will hit him where I mean.' Then I brought them to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and my uncle 'Amir came with the son of Makraz riding his horse, leading a group of seventy men. So when they arrived, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ glanced at them and said, 'Leave them, they will have the fruits of their misdeeds.' And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited the verse, 'And it is He who withheld their hands from you and your hands from them.' Then we returned to Al-Madinah and we stayed in a place called Lahy Jamāl. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sought forgiveness for those who ascended the mountain that night as if they were the forefront for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions. I passed by them that night two or three times. Then we arrived at Al-Madinah, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent his pack with his servant Rabbah, and I was with him. And I left on the horse of Talhah, calling it on its back. When we woke up, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Uwaynah al-Fazzārī had attacked the back of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so everyone attacked him and killed his shepherd.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ settled in a place, and the water source of the polytheists was nearby. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions were performing the morning prayer when they invited him to their food. When the man finished, he quickly rode his mount and rushed back to warn his companions. Salamah caught up to him and took hold of his mount, and then struck his neck. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took his belongings as booty.  

نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْزِلًا فَجَاءَ عَيْنُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ يَتَصَبَّحُونَ فَدَعَوْهُ إِلَى طَعَامِهِمْ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ الرَّجُلُ رَكِبَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ ذَهَبَ مُسْرِعًا لِيُنْذِرَ أَصْحَابَهُ قَالَ سَلَمَةُ فَأَدْرَكْتُهُ فَأَنَخْتُ رَاحِلَتَهُ وَضَرَبْتُ عُنُقَهُ فَغَنَّمَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَلَبَهُ  

[Machine] I said to the Prophet ﷺ , "Sometimes I am engaged in hunting, so I pray in my garment." He replied, "Remove it, even if you find nothing but a thorn."  

قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَكُونُ أَحْيَانًا فِي الصَّيْدِ فَأُصَلِّي فِي قَمِيصِي فَقَالَ زُرَّهُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَجِدْ إِلَّا شَوْكَةً  

“If food is ready and the Iqamah is being given, then start with the food.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 935)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا حَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالْعَشَاءُ فَابْدَءُوا بِالْعَشَاءِ  

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I am engaged in hunting, so I need to pray but I only have one garment." He said, "Just perform tayammum (dry ablution) and if you cannot find anything but a thorny branch."  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَكُونُ فِي الصَّيْدِ فَأُصَلِّي وَلَيْسَ عَلَيَّ إِلَّا قَمِيصٌ وَاحِدٌ قَالَ فَزُرَّهُ وَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدْ إِلَّا شَوْكَةً  

Salamh (bin Al Akwa’) said “I went on an expedition with the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ against Hawazin and while we were having a meal in the forenoon and most of our people were on foot and some of us were weak, a man came on a red Camel. He took out a rope from the lion of the Camel and tied his Camel with it and began to take meal with the people. When he saw the weak condition of their people and lack of mounts he went out in a hurry to his Camel, untied it made it kneel down and sat on it and went off galloping it. A man of the tribe of Aslam followed him on a brown she Camel which was best of those of the people. I hastened out and I found him while the head of the she Camel was near the paddock of the she Camel. I then went ahead till I reached near the paddock of the Camel. I then went ahead till I caught the Camel’s nose string. I made it kneel. When it placed its knee on the ground, I drew my sword and struck the man on his head and it fell down. I then brought the Camel leading it with (its equipment) on it. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ came forward facing me and asked “Who killed the man? They (the people) said “Salamah bin Akwa’. He said “he gets all his spoil.” Harun said “This is Hashim’s version. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2654)   

غَزَوْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ هَوَازِنَ قَالَ فَبَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ نَتَضَحَّى وَعَامَّتُنَا مُشَاةٌ فِينَا ضَعَفَةٌ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى جَمَلٍ أَحْمَرَ فَانْتَزَعَ طَلَقًا مِنْ حَقَبِهِ فَقَيَّدَ بِهِ جَمَلَهُ رَجُلٌ شَابٌّ ثُمَّ جَاءَ يَتَغَدَّى مَعَ الْقَوْمِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ضَعْفَهُمْ وَرِقَّةَ ظَهْرِهِمْ خَرَجَ إِلَى جَمَلِهِ فَأَطْلَقَهُ ثُمَّ أَنَاخَهُ فَقَعَدَ عَلَيْهِ فَخَرَجَ يَرْكُضُ وَاتَّبَعَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ مِنْ صَحَابَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى نَاقَةٍ وَرْقَاءَ هِيَ أَمْثَلُ ظَهْرِ الْقَوْمِ فَأَتْبَعَهُ قَالَ وَخَرَجْتُ أَعْدُو فَأَدْرَكْتُهُ وَرَأْسُ النَّاقَةِ عِنْدَ وَرِكِ الْجَمَلِ وَكُنْتُ عِنْدَ وَرِكِالنَّاقَةِ ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمْتُ حَتَّى كُنْتُ عِنْدَ وَرِكِ الْجَمَلِ ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمْتُ حَتَّى أَخَذْتُ بِخِطَامِ الْجَمَلِ فَأَنَخْتُهُ فَلَمَّا وَضَعَ رُكْبَتَهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ اخْتَرَطْتُ سَيْفِي فَأَضْرِبُ بِهِ رَأْسَهُ فَنَدَرَ فَجِئْتُ بِرَاحِلَتِهِ وَمَا عَلَيْهَا أَقُودُهُ فَاسْتَقْبَلَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُقْبِلًا قَالَ مَنْ قَتَلَ الرَّجُلَ؟ قَالُوا ابْنُ الْأَكْوَعِ قَالَ لَهُ سَلَبُهُ أَجْمَعُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No one should accuse me of saying something false unless I have said it, then let him take his seat in the fire."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَقُولُ أَحَدٌ عَلَيَّ بَاطِلًا أَوْ مَا لَمْ أَقُلْ إِلَّا تَبَوَّأَ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ  

[Machine] We went out to the Prophet ﷺ to Khaybar, and a man from the people said, "Which of us, O 'Amir, would you prefer to hear from your poems?" The Prophet replied and he started reciting, "By Allah, if not for Allah we would not have been guided." Then he recited some other poetry but I did not memorize it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "Who is this poet?" They said, "It is 'Amir bin Al-Akwa'." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "May Allah have mercy on him." Then a man from the people said, "O Messenger of Allah, if only you would entertain us with it more." So, when they gathered around, he recited the poetry.  

خَرَجْنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِلَى خَيْبَرَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ أَيْ عَامِرُ لَوْ أَسْمَعْتَنَا مِنْ هُنَيَّاتِكَ قَالَ فَنَزَلَ يَحْدُو بِهِمْ وَيَذْكُرُ[البحر الرجز]تَالَلَّهِ لَوْلَا اللهُ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَاوَذَكَرَ شِعْرًا غَيْرَ هَذَا وَلَكِنْ لَمْ أَحْفَظْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ هَذَا السَّائِقُ؟ قَالُوا عَامِرُ بْنُ الْأَكْوَعِ فَقَالَ يَرْحَمُهُ اللهُ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ لَوْلَا مَتَّعْتَنَا بِهِ فَلَمَّا اصَّافَّ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to a man from the tribe of Al-Aslam, "Proclaim among your people (or the people) on the day of 'Ashura' (tenth of Muharram), 'Whosoever has eaten anything should fast for the rest of the day; and whoever has not eaten anything, should complete his fast.' " (Using translation from Bukhārī 7265)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ أَذِّنْ فِي قَوْمِكَ أَوْ فِي النَّاسِ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ مَنْ أَكَلَ فَلْيَصُمْ بَقِيَّةَ يَوْمِهِ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَكَلَ فَلْيَصُمْ  

[Machine] I was with the Prophet ﷺ when a funeral came and they said, "O Messenger of Allah, pray upon him." He said, "Did he leave anything?" They said, "No." He asked, "Did he leave any debts?" They said, "No." So, he prayed for him. Then, another funeral came after that, and he asked, "Did he leave any debts?" They said, "No." He asked, "Did he leave anything?" They said, "Three dinars." He said, "Three kiyats." Then, the third funeral came, and he asked, "Did he leave any debts?" They said, "Yes." He asked, "Did he leave anything?" They said, "No." He said, "Pray upon your companion." Then, a man from the Ansar called Abu Qatadah said, "O Messenger of Allah, his debt is upon me." So, he prayed upon him.  

كُنْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأُتِيَ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَالُوا يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ صَلِّ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ شَيْئًا؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنًا؟ قَالُوا لَا فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِجَنَازَةٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ دَيْنٍ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالُوا ثَلَاثَ دَنَانِيرَ قَالَ ثَلَاثُ كَيَّاتٍ قَالَ فَأُتِيَ بِالثَّالِثَةِ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ دَيْنٍ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَلَيَّ دَيْنُهُ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by some people from the tribe of Aslam practicing archery. He said, "O children of Ishmael! Throw (arrows), for your father was an archer. I am on the side of Bani so-andso," meaning one of the two teams. The other team stopped throwing, whereupon the Prophet ﷺ said, "What has happened to them?" They replied, "How shall we throw while you are with Bani so-andso?" He said, "Throw for I am with all of you." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3507)  

خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ وَهُمْ يَتَنَاضَلُونَ فِي السُّوقِ فَقَالَ ارْمُوا يَا بَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ فَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمْ كَانَ رَامِيًا ارْمُوا وَأَنَا مَعَ بَنِي فُلَانٍ لِأَحَدِ الْفَرِيقَيْنِ فَأَمْسَكُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ فَقَالَ ارْمُوا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ نَرْمِي وَأَنْتَ مَعَ بَنِي فُلَانٍ؟ قَالَ ارْمُوا وَأَنَا مَعَكُمْ كُلُّكُمْ  

[Machine] He informed him that a man sneezed in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ , so the Prophet ﷺ said to him, "May Allah have mercy on you." Then he sneezed a second or third time, so the Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, he is ill."  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا عَطَسَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَرْحَمُكَ اللهُ ثُمَّ عَطَسَ الثَّانِيَةَ أَوِ الثَّالِثَةَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّهُ مَزْكُومٌ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ saw a man eating with his left hand, so he said, "Eat with your right hand." The man replied, "I cannot." The Prophet ﷺ said, "You can if you try." The man said, "But I cannot."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَأَى رَجُلًا يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ فَقَالَ كُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ قَالَ لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ قَالَ لَا اسْتَطَعْتَ قَالَ فَمَا وَصَلَتْ إِلَى فِيهِ بَعْدُ  

[Machine] An envoy came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from the pagans. When he tasted food, he had an upset stomach and vomited. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered his companions to kill him. So the people rushed towards him. The man's father was a skilled rider, and he outran them. They tried to catch up to him but he reached him first. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took hold of the reins of his she-camel or its noseband, then killed him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ distributed his belongings.  

جَاءَ عَيْنٌ لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَلَمَّا طَعِمَ انْسَلَّ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ اقْتُلُوا قَالَ فَابْتَدَرَ الْقَوْمُ قَالَ وَكَانَ أَبِي يَسْبِقُ الْفَرَسَ شَدًّا قَالَ فَسَبَقَهُمْ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِزِمَامِ نَاقَتِهِ أَوْ بِخِطَامِهَا قَالَ ثُمَّ قَتَلَهُ قَالَ فَنَفَّلَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَلَبَهُ  

The Prophet ﷺ used to say the Maghrib prayer immediately after the sun had set when its upper side would disappear. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 417)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي الْمَغْرِبَ سَاعَةَ تَغْرُبُ الشَّمْسُ إِذَا غَابَ حَاجِبُهَا  

I said to Salama bin Al-Akwaʿ, "For what did you give the Pledge of allegiance to Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the day of Al-Hudaibiya?" He replied, "For death (in the Cause of Islam.). (Using translation from Bukhārī 4169)  

قُلْتُ لِسَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ عَلَى أَيِّ شَيْءٍ بَايَعْتُمْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ؟ قَالَ بَايَعْنَاهُ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ  

There came to us the proclaimer of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah ﷺ has granted you permission to benefit yourselves, i. e. to contract temporary marriage with women. (Using translation from Muslim 1405a)  

عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَسَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ قَالَا خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا مُنَادِي رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَنَادَى إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ أَذِنَ لَكُمْ فَاسْتَمْتِعُوا يَعْنِي مُتْعَةَ النِّسَاءِ  

[Machine] "I used to travel with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and I never saw him pray after Asr (afternoon prayer) or after Fajr (dawn prayer) ever."  

كُنْتُ أُسَافِرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ صَلَّى بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ وَلَا بَعْدَ الصُّبْحِ قَطُّ  

Salamh (bin Al Akwa’) said “I went on an expedition with the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ against Hawazin and while we were having a meal in the forenoon and most of our people were on foot and some of us were weak, a man came on a red Camel. He took out a rope from the lion of the Camel and tied his Camel with it and began to take meal with the people. When he saw the weak condition of their people and lack of mounts he went out in a hurry to his Camel, untied it made it kneel down and sat on it and went off galloping it. A man of the tribe of Aslam followed him on a brown she Camel which was best of those of the people. I hastened out and I found him while the head of the she Camel was near the paddock of the she Camel. I then went ahead till I reached near the paddock of the Camel. I then went ahead till I caught the Camel’s nose string. I made it kneel. When it placed its knee on the ground, I drew my sword and struck the man on his head and it fell down. I then brought the Camel leading it with (its equipment) on it. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ came forward facing me and asked “Who killed the man? They (the people) said “Salamah bin Akwa’. He said “he gets all his spoil.” Harun said “This is Hashim’s version. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2654)

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , sent Abu Bakr to Fazarah, and I went with him until we approached the water. Abu Bakr unleashed his camel, and when we prayed dawn prayer, he commanded us to prepare for an ambush. We returned to the water, and Abu Bakr killed those who killed, while we were with him. Salamah said, "I saw a group of people with necklaces among them, so I feared that they would precede me to the mountain. I caught up with them and shot an arrow between them and the mountain. When they saw the arrow, they stood up. Then, I saw a woman from Fazarah wearing a dress made of Qisha with her daughter, who was one of the most beautiful Arab girls. I came to them to take them to Abu Bakr, but Abu Bakr gifted them to me instead. I did not reveal her dress until we reached Al-Madinah. She then stayed with me, and I did not reveal her dress until the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , met me in the market. He said, 'O Salamah, give me the woman.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I am infatuated by her, and I have not revealed her dress.' He remained silent until the next day, when I met the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , in the market, and I did not reveal her dress. He said, 'O Salamah, give me the woman for the sake of Allah.' I said, 'She is yours, O Messenger of Allah.' He then sent her to the people of Makkah as a ransom for some Muslims who were in the hands of the pagans."  

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِلَى فَزَارَةَ وَخَرَجْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى إِذَا دَنَوْنَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ عَرَّسَ أَبُو بَكْرٍحَتَّى إِذَا صَلَّيْنَا الصُّبْحَ أَمَرَنَا فَشَنَنَّا الْغَارَةَ فَوَرَدْنَا الْمَاءَ فَقَتَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مَنْ قَتَلَ وَنَحْنُ مَعَهُ قَالَ سَلَمَةُ فَرَأَيْتُ عُنُقًا مِنَ النَّاسِ فِيهِمُ الذَّرَارِيُّ فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ يَسْبِقُونِي إِلَى الْجَبَلِ فَأَدْرَكْتُهُمْ فَرَمَيْتُ بِسَهْمٍ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْجَبَلِ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا السَّهْمَ قَامُوا فَإِذَا امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ فَزَارَةَ عَلَيْهَا قَشْعٌ مِنْ أَدَمٍ مَعَهَا ابْنَةٌ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ الْعَرَبِ فَجِئْتُ أَسُوقُهُنَّ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَنَفَّلَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ ابْنَتَهَا فَلَمْ أَكْشِفْ لَهَا ثَوْبًا حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ ثُمَّ بَاتَتْ عِنْدِي فَلَمْ أَكْشِفْ لَهَا ثَوْبًا حَتَّى لَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي السُّوقِ فَقَالَ يَا سَلَمَةُ هَبْ لِي الْمَرْأَةَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَقَدْ أَعْجَبَتْنِي وَمَا كَشَفْتُ لَهَا ثَوْبًا قَالَ فَسَكَتَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ الْغَدُ لَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي السُّوقِ وَلَمْ أَكْشِفْ لَهَا ثَوْبًا فَقَالَ يَا سَلَمَةُ هَبْ لِي الْمَرْأَةَ لِلَّهِ أَبُوكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ هِيَ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ فَبَعَثَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ فَفَدَى بِهَا أُسَرَاءَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ كَانُوا فِي أَيْدِي الْمُشْرِكِينَ  

[Machine] My uncle, Baraz, stood out on the day of Khaybar and greeted the Jew. He said, "Welcome, O Jew." The Jew replied, "Welcome indeed, O Baraz. Khaybar knows that I am a welcomed warrior, a tested champion. When the battles are ignited, I become ablaze."

My uncle, Aamir, responded, "Welcome, O Baraz. Khaybar knows that I am an experienced warrior, a daring hero."

They exchanged two strikes, and Baraz's sword fell on Aamir's shield. It slid down and accidentally cut his ankle, severing his tendon. Baraz said, "Salama bin Al-Akwa' was there, and I met some of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ . They said, 'Aamir's actions have come to an end; he has killed himself.' Salama said, 'So I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ crying. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, Aamir's actions have come to an end.' The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'Who said that?' I said, 'Some of your companions.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Whoever said that has lied. Rather, he will be rewarded twice. When he went to Khaybar, he was reciting poetry about the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he was among them, and yet they were saying, 'By Allah, if it weren't for Allah, we would not have been guided, nor would we have been charitable, nor would we have prayed. Indeed, when those who transgress against us desire evil, we defend ourselves, seeking no help from your favor. So stand firm, for we shall meet them and send down tranquility upon us.'"

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Who is this person?' They said, 'It is Aamir, O Messenger of Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'May your Lord forgive you.'

Upon hearing this, Umar ibn Al-Khattab said, 'O Messenger of Allah, if you grant us respite with Aamir, he should be given the opportunity to be martyred.' Salama said, 'Then the Prophet ﷺ sent me to Ali and said, 'I will bestow the flag upon a man who loves Allah and His Messenger, or whom Allah and His Messenger love.' I brought Ali, and I led him. He spitted in the Prophet's ﷺ eye and then received the flag. Marhaba went forward, swinging his sword and reciting poetry. He said, 'Khaybar surely knows that I am Marhaba, the champion wielding the weapon. When the battles are ignited, I become ablaze.' Ali responded, 'I am the one whom my mother named Haydar. I am like the thorny bush, unpleasant to the sight. I repay them measure for measure, like weighing the sandam. So I split Marhaba's head with my sword, and the victory was through my hands.'"

غَيْبُوبَةِ الشَّمْسِ إِلَى شِعْبٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ ذُو قَرَدٍ فَأَرَادُوا أَنْ يَشْرَبُوا مِنْهُ فَأَبْصَرُونِي أَعْدُو وَرَاءَهُمْ فَعَطَفُوا عَنْهُ وَاشْتَدُّوا فِي الثَّنِيَّةِ ثَنِيَّةِ ذِي نَثْرٍ وَغَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ فَأَلْحَقُ رَجُلًا فَأَرْمِيهِ فَقُلْتُ خُذْهَاوَأَنَا ابْنُ الْأَكْوَعِ وَالْيَوْمُ يَوْمُ الرُّضَّعِ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَا ثُكْلَ أُمِّ أَكْوَعُ بُكْرَةٍ؟ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ أَيْ عَدُوَّ نَفْسِهِ وَكَانَ الَّذِي رَمَيْتُهُ بُكْرَةً فَأَتْبَعْتُهُ سَهْمًا آخَرَ فَعَلِقَ بِهِ سَهْمَانِ وَيَخْلُفُونَ فَرَسَيْنِ فَجِئْتُ بِهِمَا أَسُوقُهُمَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمَاءِ الَّذِي حَلَّيْتُهُمْ عَنْهُ ذُوْ قَرَدٍ فَإِذَا بِنَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ فِي خَمْسِمِائَةٍ وَإِذَا بِلَالٌ قَدْ نَحَرَ جَزُورًا مِمَّا خَلَّفْتُ فَهُوَ يَشْوِي لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ كَبِدِهَا وَسَنَامِهَا فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ خَلِّنِي فَأَنْتَخِبَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِكَ مِائَةً فَآخُذَ عَلَى الْكُفَّارِ بِالْعَشْوَةً فَلَا يَبْقَى مِنْهُمْ مُخْبِرٌ إِلَّا قَتَلْتُهُ قَالَ أَكُنْتَ فَاعِلًا ذَلِكَ يَا سَلَمَةُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَالَّذِي أَكْرَمَكَفَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ نَوَاجِذَهُ فِي ضُوءِ النَّارِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّهُمْ يُقْرَوْنَ الْآنَ بِأَرْضِ غَطَفَانَ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ غَطَفَانَ فَقَالَ مَرُّوا عَلَى فُلَانٍ الْغَطَفَانِيِّ فَنَحَرَ لَهُمْ جَزُورًا قَالَ فَلَمَّا أَخَذُوا يَكْشِطُونَ جِلْدَهَا رَأَوْا غَبَرَةً فَتَرَكُوهَا وَخَرَجُوا هَرَابًا فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْنَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَيْرُ فُرْسَانِنَا الْيَوْمَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ وَخَيْرُ رَجَّالَتِنَا سَلَمَةُ فَأَعْطَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَهْمَ الرَّاجِلِ وَالْفَارِسِ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ أَرْدَفَنِي وَرَاءَهُ عَلَى الْعَضْبَاءِ رَاجِعِينَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَلَمَّا كَانَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهَا قَرِيبًا مِنْ ضَحْوَةٍ وَفِي الْقَوْمِ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ كَانَ لَا يُسْبَقُ جَعَلَ يُنَادِي هَلْ مِنْ مُسَابِقٍ؟ أَلَا رَجُلٌ يُسَابِقُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ؟ فَأَعَادَ ذَلِكَ مِرَارًا وَأَنَا وَرَاءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مُرْدِفِي قُلْتُ لَهُ أَمَا تُكْرِمُ كَرِيمًا وَلَا تَهَابُ شَرِيفًا قَالَ لَا إِلَّا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي خَلِّنِي فَلَأُسَابِقُ الرَّجُلَ قَالَ إِنْ شِئْتَ قُلْتُ أَذْهَبُ إِلَيْكَ فَطَفَرَ عَنْ رَاحِلَتِهِ وَثَنَيْتُ رِجْلَيَّ فَطَفَرْتُ عَنِ النَّاقَةِ ثُمَّ إِنِّي رَبَطْتُ عَلَيْهَا شَرَفًا أَوْ شَرَفَيْنِ يَعْنِي اسْتَبْقَيْتُ نَفْسِي ثُمَّ إِنِّي عَدَوْتُ حَتَّى أَلْحَقَهُ فَأَصُكَّ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ بِيَدَيَّ قُلْتُ سَبَقْتُكَ وَاللهِ أَوْ كَلِمَةً نَحْوَهَا قَالَ فَضَحِكَ وَقَالَ إِنْ أَظُنُّ حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ
