It was narrated from ‘Irbad bin Sariyah that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to ask for forgiveness for the first row three times and for the second row twice. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 996)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَسْتَغْفِرُ لِلصَّفِّ الْمُقَدَّمِ ثَلَاثًا وَلِلثَّانِي مَرَّةً
He heard Al-'Irbad bin Sariyah say: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delivered a moving speech to us which made our eyes flow with tears and made our hearts melt. We said: 'O Messenger of Allah. This is a speech of farewell. What did you enjoin upon us?' He said: 'I am leaving you upon a (path of) brightness whose night is like its day. No one will deviate from it after I am gone but one who is doomed. Whoever among you lives will see great conflict. I urge you to adhere to what you know of my Sunnah and the path of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs, and cling stubbornly to it. And you must obey, even if (your leader is) an Abyssinian leader. For the true believer is like a camel with a ring in its nose; wherever it is driven, it complies." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 43)
وَعَظَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَوْعِظَةً ذَرَفَتْ مِنْهَا الْعُيُونُ وَوَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَمَوْعِظَةُ مُوَدِّعٍ فَمَاذَا تَعْهَدُ إِلَيْنَا؟ قَالَ قَدْ تَرَكْتُكُمْ عَلَى الْبَيْضَاءِ لَيْلُهَا كَنَهَارِهَا لَا يَزِيغُ عَنْهَا بَعْدِي إِلَّا هَالِكٌ وَمَنْ يَعِشْ مِنْكُمْ فَسَيَرَى اخْتِلَافًا كَثِيرًا فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِمَا عَرَفْتُمْ مِنْ سُنَّتِي وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالطَّاعَةِ وَإِنْ عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا عَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ فَإِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُ كَالْجَمَلِ الْأَنِفِ حَيْثُمَا انْقِيدَ انْقَادَ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ invited me to a meal shortly before dawn in Ramadan saying: Come to the blessed morning meal. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2344)
دَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى السَّحُورِفِي رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَ هَلُمَّ إِلَى هَذَا الْغِذَاءِ الْمُبَارَكِ
AbdurRahman ibn Amr as-Sulami and Hujr ibn Hujr said: We came to Irbad ibn Sariyah who was among those about whom the following verse was revealed: "Nor (is there blame) on those who come to thee to be provided with mounts, and when thou saidst: "I can find no mounts for you." We greeted him and said: We have come to see you to give healing and obtain benefit from you. Al-Irbad said: One day the Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in prayer, then faced us and gave us a lengthy exhortation at which the eyes shed tears and the hearts were afraid. A man said: Messenger of Allah! It seems as if it were a farewell exhortation, so what injunction do you give us? He then said: I enjoin you to fear Allah, and to hear and obey even if it be an Abyssinian slave, for those of you who live after me will see great disagreement. You must then follow my sunnah and that of the rightly-guided caliphs. Hold to it and stick fast to it. Avoid novelties, for every novelty is an innovation, and every innovation is an error. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4607)
صَلَّى لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْفَجْرَ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا فَوَعَظَنَا مَوْعِظَةً بَلِيغَةً ذَرَفَتْ لَهَا الْأَعْيُنُ وَوَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ قُلْنَا أَوْ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَأَنَّ هَذِهِ مَوْعِظَةُ مُوَدِّعٍ فَأَوْصِنَا قَالَ أُوصِيكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ وَالسَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يَعِشْ مِنْكُمْ يَرَى بَعْدِي اخْتِلَافًا كَثِيرًا فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِسُنَّتِي وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ وَعَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَمُحْدَثَاتِ الْأُمُورِ فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مُحْدَثَةٍ بِدْعَةٌ وَإِنَّ كُلَّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ

(Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4607)
عِرْبَاضٌ صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الصُّبْحَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا فَوَعَظَنَا مَوْعِظَةً بَلِيغَةً ذَرَفَتْ مِنْهَا الْعُيُونُ وَوَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَأَنَّ هَذِهِ مَوْعِظَةُ مُوَدِّعٍ فَمَاذَا تَعْهَدُ إِلَيْنَا؟ فَقَالَ أُوصِيكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ وَالسَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يَعِشْ مِنْكُمْ بَعْدِي فَسَيَرَى اخْتِلَافًا كَثِيرًا فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِسُنَّتِي وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ تَمَسَّكُوا بِهَا وَعَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَمُحْدَثَاتِ الْأُمُورِ فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مُحْدَثَةٍ بِدْعَةٌ وَكُلَّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised them one day after the morning prayer, then he remembered them.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَظَهُمْ يَوْمًا بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ فَذَكَرَهُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised them one day after the morning prayer, and he mentioned them.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَظَهُمْ يَوْمًا بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ فَذَكَرَهُ
It was narrated from ‘Irbad bin Sariyah that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to ask for forgiveness for the first row three times and for the second row twice. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 996)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَسْتَغْفِرُ لِلصَّفِّ الْمُقَدَّمِ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ وَلِلثَّانِي مَرَّةً
[Machine] "I sold a camel to the Prophet ﷺ , and then I went to him to collect the payment. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, pay me for the camel.' He replied, 'Yes, I will pay you, but only with a young camel.' So, he paid me with a young camel, and I was pleased with his settlement. Then, an Arab came to him and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, pay me for my camel.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him a fully grown camel that was in excellent condition. The man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, this camel is better than mine.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, 'Indeed, the best among people are those who fulfill their obligations.'"
بِعْتُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بَكْرًا فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَتَقَاضَاهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اقْضِنِي ثَمَنَ بَكْرِي فَقَالَ أَجَلْ لَا أَقْضِيكَهَا إِلَّا لُجَيْنِيَّةً قَالَ فَقَضَانِي فَأَحْسَنَ قَضَائِي قَالَ وَجَاءَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اقْضِنِي بَكْرِي فَأَعْطَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَئِذٍ جَمَلًا قَدْ أَسَنَّ فَقَالَ يَارَسُولَ اللهِ هَذَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ بَكْرِي قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ خَيْرَ الْقَوْمِ خَيْرُهُمْ قَضَاءً
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I am the servant of Allah and the last of the prophets. Even Adam, ﷺ , was created from clay. I will inform you of the first call of my father Ibrahim, the glad tidings of my brother Isa, and the vision my mother saw, as well as the mothers of the prophets who also had visions."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِّي عَبْدُ اللهِ لَخَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ وَإِنَّ آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ لَمُنْجَدِلٌ فِي طِينَتِهِ وَسَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِأَوَّلِ ذَلِكَ دَعْوَةُ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَبِشَارَةُ عِيسَىبِي وَرُؤْيَا أُمِّي الَّتِي رَأَتْ وَكَذَلِكَ أُمَّهَاتُ النَّبِيِّينَ تَرَيْنَ
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "I am the servant of Allah and the last of the prophets. He mentioned similar words and added, 'Indeed, the mother of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a light emanating from him when she gave birth to him, which illuminated the castles of Sham.'"
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنِّي عَبْدُ اللهِ خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ وَزَادَ فِيهِ إِنَّ أُمَّ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَتْ حِينَ وَضَعَتْهُ نُورًا أَضَاءَتْ مِنْهُ قُصُورُ الشَّامِ
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ calling for the pre-dawn meal in the month of Ramadan. He said, "Come for the blessed meal, then I heard him say, 'O Allah, teach Mu'awiyah the Book and the account and protect him from the punishment."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺوَهُوَ يَدْعُو إِلَى السَّحُورِ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ هَلُمَّ إِلَى الْغِدَاءِ الْمُبَارَكِ ثُمَّ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ اللهُمَّ عَلِّمْ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِسَابَ وَقِهِ الْعَذَابَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited on the day of Khaybar the flesh of every bird that has talons, the meat of domesticated donkeys, wild donkeys, and any female animals until they have given birth.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حَرَّمَ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ كُلَّ ذِي مِخْلَبٍ مِنَ الطَّيْرِ وَلُحُومَ الْحُمُرِ الْأَهْلِيَّةِ وَالْخَلِيسَةَ وَالْمُجَثَّمَةَ وَأَنْ تُوطَأَ السَّبَايَا حَتَّى يَضَعْنَ مَا فِي بُطُونِهِنَّ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to take alms from the spoils of war, and he would say, "I have no share in this except like what anyone of you has, except for one-fifth, which is to be returned to you. So pay the thread and the needle and what is above them and be cautious of thieves, for it is a disgrace and a burden on its owner on the Day of Resurrection."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَأْخُذُ الْوَبَرَةَ مِنْ فَيْءِ اللهِ ﷻ فَيَقُولُ مَا لِي مِنْ هَذَا إِلَّا مِثْلَ مَا لِأَحَدِكُمْ إِلَّا الْخُمُسَ وَهُوَ مَرْدُودٌ فِيكُمْ فَأَدُّوا الْخَيْطَ وَالْمَخِيطَ فَمَا فَوْقَهُمَا وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْغُلُولَ فَإِنَّهُ عَارٌ وَشَنَارٌ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
[Machine] "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Verily, when a man quenches the thirst of his wife with water, he will be rewarded.' I then went to him, gave her water to drink, and informed her of what I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا سَقَى امْرَأَتَهُ مِنَ الْمَاءِ أُجِرَ قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُهَافَسَقَيْتُهَا وَحَدَّثْتُهَا بِمَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ
It was narrated from Al'Irbad bin Sariyah that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to send Salah on the first row three times and on the second row once. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 817)
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي عَلَى الصَّفِّ الْمُقَدَّمِ ثَلَاثًا وَعَلَى الثَّانِي وَاحِدَةً
It was narrated from Al'Irbad bin Sariyah that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to send Salah on the first row three times and on the second row once. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 817)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُصَلِّي عَلَى الصَّفِّ الْأَوَّلِ ثَلَاثًا وَعَلَى الَّذِي يَلِيهِ وَاحِدَةً
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Allah Almighty said: Those who loved each other for the sake of My Glory will be in the shade of My Throne on a Day there is no shade but Mine.”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «قَالَ اللهُ ﷻ: الْمُتَحَابُّونَ بِجَلَالِي فِي ظِلِّ عَرْشِي يَوْمَ لَا ظِلَّ إِلَّا ظِلِّي۔»
"The martyrs and those who dies in their beds referred a dispute to our Lord concerning those who dies of the plague. The martyrs said: 'Our brothers were killed as we were killed.' And those who dies in their beds said: 'Our brothers dies on their beds as we died.' Our Lord said: 'Look at their wounds; if their wounds; if their wounds are like the wounds of those who were killed then they are of them and belong with them.' And their wounds were like their (the martyrs') wounds." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3164)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَخْتَصِمُ الشُّهَدَاءُ وَالْمُتَوَفَّوْنَ عَلَى فُرُشِهِمْ إِلَى رَبِّنَا ﷻ فِي الَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنَ الطَّاعُونِ فَيَقُولُ الشُّهَدَاءُ إِخْوَانُنَا قُتِلُوا كَمَا قُتِلْنَا وَيَقُولُ الْمُتَوَفَّوْنَ عَلَى فُرُشِهِمْ إِخْوَانُنَا مَاتُوا عَلَى فُرُشِهِمْ كَمَا مِتْنَا عَلَى فُرُشِنَا فَيَقُولُ رَبُّنَا ﷻ انْظُرُوا إِلَى جِرَاحِهِمْ فَإِنْ أَشْبَهَتْ جِرَاحُهُمْ جِرَاحَ الْمَقْتُولِينَ فَإِنَّهُمْ مِنْهُمْ وَمَعَهُمْ فَإِذَا جِرَاحُهُمْ قَدْ أَشْبَهَتْ جِرَاحَهُمْ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite al-Musabbihat before going to sleep, and say: They contain a verse which is better than a thousand verses. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 5057)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ الْمُسَبِّحَاتِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْقُدَ وَقَالَ إِنَّ فِيهِنَّ آيَةً أَفْضَلُ مِنْ أَلْفِ آيَةٍ
[Machine] Al-Arbaad bin Saariyah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ used to go out with us to the battlefield, and we would have walnuts with us. He would say, "If you only knew what we have stored for you, you would not be sad for what has been taken from you. And soon, you will conquer Persia and Rome."
الْعِرْبَاضُ بْنُ سَارِيَةَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَخْرُجُ إِلَيْنَا فِي الصُّفَّةِ وَعَلَيْنَا الْحَوْتَكِيَّةُ فَيَقُولُ لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا ذُخِرَ لَكُمْ مَا حَزِنْتُمْ عَلَى مَا زُوِيَ عَنْكُمْ وَلَيُفْتَحَنَّ لَكُمْ فَارِسُ وَالرُّومُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed three times for the front row and once for the one that follows it.
صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الصَّفِّ الْمُقَدَّمِ ثَلَاثًا وَعَلَى الَّذِي يَلِيهِ وَاحِدَةً
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "Indeed, I am in the sight of Allah in the Mother of the Book. I am the seal of the Prophets, and indeed Adam was fashioned from clay. I will inform you of the interpretation of this; it is the supplication of my father Ibrahim, and the good tidings of Isa (Jesus) to his people, and the vision of my mother that she saw, that a light came out of her that illuminated the palaces of Syria. And likewise, the mothers of the Prophets, may the blessings of Allah be upon them, see."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنِّي عِنْدَ اللهِ فِي أُمِّ الْكِتَابِ لَخَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ وَإِنَّ آدَمَ لَمُنْجَدِلٌ فِي طِينَتِهِ وَسَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِتَأْوِيلِ ذَلِكَ دَعْوَةِ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَبِشَارَةِ عِيسَى قَوْمَهُ وَرُؤْيَا أُمِّي الَّتِي رَأَتْ أَنَّهُ خَرَجَ مِنْهَا نُورٌ أَضَاءَتْ لَهُ قُصُورُ الشَّامِ وَكَذَلِكَ تَرَى أُمَّهَاتُ النَّبِيِّينَ صَلَوَاتُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِمْ
[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "The martyrs and those who die of plague will dispute with Allah about those who died from the plague. The martyrs will say, 'Our brethren were killed.' The plague victims will say, 'Our brethren died on their beds, just as we did.' Then Allah will rule between them and say, 'Look at the wounds of the plague victims. If their wounds resemble the wounds of the martyrs, then they are considered martyrs and will be with them.'"
سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَخْتَصِمُ الشُّهَدَاءُ وَالْمُتَوَفَّوْنَ عَلَى فُرُشِهِمْ إِلَى اللهِ ﷻ فِي الَّذِينَ مَاتُوا مِنَ الطَّاعُونِ فَيَقُولُ الشُّهَدَاءُ إِخْوَانُنَا قُتِلُوا وَيَقُولُ الْمُتَوَفَّوْنَ عَلَى فُرُشِهِمْ إِخْوَانُنَا مَاتُوا عَلَى فُرُشِهِمْ كَمَا مِتْنَا فَيَقْضِي اللهُ ﷻ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنْ انْظُرُوا إِلَى جِرَاحَاتِ الْمَطْعُونِينَ فَإِنْ أَشْبَهَتْ جِرَاحَاتِ الشُّهَدَاءِ فَهُمْ مِنْهُمْ فَيَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى جِرَاحِ الْمَطْعُونِينَ فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ أَشْبَهَتْ فَيُلْحَقُونَ مَعَهُمْ
