[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked, "What should be given as charity from the sacrificial animals?" He replied, "Four types." And he said, "The barren (female) camel whose foreleg is shorter than the foreleg of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, the clear-eyed goat with a clear spot on its ribs, the sheep with a clear spot on its private parts, the sick animal that clearly shows its illness, and the feeble animal that cannot be driven."

ahmad:18676Abū Saʿīd > Shuʿbah > Abū Isḥāq > al-Barāʾ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a group of the Ansar in their gatherings and said, "If you must do something, guide towards the right path, spread peace, and help the oppressed." Muhammad ibn Jafar narrated this from Shu'bah, and Abu Ishaq narrated from Al-Bara' but he did not hear it directly from Al-Bara'.  

أحمد:١٨٦٧٦حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا إِسْحَاقَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ

[Machine] I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said, "Pray for me that Zaid may come or bring the shoulder and water-pot or the tablet and water-pot. Write, 'The sitters among the believers are not equal to the fighters in the cause of Allah.'" (Quran 4:95) He said, "This verse was revealed in this way." Ibn Umm Maktum was sitting behind him and he said, "O Messenger of Allah! I have a problem with my eyes." So the verse was revealed before he left, 'except for those disabled by injury.' (Quran 4:95)  

أحمد:١٨٦٧٩حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ

I have surrendered myself over to you and have turned my face towards You, and leave all my affairs to You and depend on You and put my trust in You expecting Your reward and fearing Your punishment. There is neither fleeing from You nor refuge but with You. I believe in the Book (Qur'an) which You have revealed and in Your Prophet (Muhammad) whom You have sent.' If you then die on that night, then you will die as a Muslim, and if you wake alive in the morning then you will receive the reward." (See Hadith No. 323, Vol. 8) (Using translation from Bukhārī 7488)

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ reciting in the evening prayer with the chapters of "At-Tin" and "Az-Zaytun" and I have never heard anyone with a more beautiful voice than him when he recites ﷺ .  

أحمد:١٨٦٨١حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ

ahmad:18683Muʾammal > Sufyān > Abū Isḥāq > al-Barāʾ b. ʿĀzib

[Machine] And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dismissed the polytheists on the day of Hudaybiyah on three conditions: whoever comes to them from the Prophet ﷺ, they would not return him, but if someone goes to them from them, they would return him to them. And that the Prophet ﷺ would come the following year with his companions and enter Makkah without performing Umrah, but only three things would be taken with them and weapons such as swords and bows, and the like would not be taken with them.

ahmad:18684Ḥusayn b. Muḥammad > Isrāʾīl > Abū Isḥāq > al-Barāʾ b. ʿĀzib

[Machine] I saw the Prophet ﷺ moving from the sand of the trench until he could see the dirt on his abdomen, and he was saying the words of Abdullah bin Rawaha. O Allah, if it weren't for You, we wouldn't have been guided, given charity, or prayed. Send down tranquility upon us and make our steps steadfast if we encounter our enemies. Indeed, the highest group has transgressed against us, and if they intend to cause us turmoil, we refuse.

Offer a substitute for it (since it does not absolve you of the responsibility of sacrifice). Thereupon he said: Messenger of Allah. I have nothing with me but a goat of less than six months. Shu'ba (one of the narrators) said: I think he (al-Bara' b. 'Azib also) said: And it is better than a goat of one year. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Make it a substitute for that (and sacrifice it), but it will not suffice for anyone (as a sacrifice) after you. (Using translation from Muslim 1961i)

The first (act) with which we started our day (the day of 'Id-ul Adha) was that we offered prayer. We then returned and sacrificed the animals and he who did that in fact adhered to our Sunnah (practice). And he who slaughtered the (animal on that day before the 'Id prayer), for him (the slaughtering of animal was directed to the acquiring of) meat for his family, and there is nothing of the sort of sacrifice in it. It was Abu Burda b. Niyar who had slaughtered (the animal before the 'Id prayer). He said: I have a small lamb, of less than one year, but better than that of more than a year. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ qaid: Sacrifice it, but it will not suffice (as a sacrifice) for anyone after you. (Using translation from Muslim 1961e)

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us to dig the trench. He pointed out to us a rock in a certain place of the trench where the pickaxes would not work. He complained about it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came. He said, "Bring me an Awf." He laid down his garment and then descended to the rock. He took the pickaxe and said, "In the name of Allah," and struck a blow that broke one-third of the rock. He said, "Allah is the Greatest! I have been given the keys to Syria. By Allah, I can see its red palaces from my place." Then he said, "In the name of Allah," and struck another blow that broke one-third of the rock. He said, "Allah is the Greatest! I have been given the keys to Persia. By Allah, I can see its white castles from my place." Then he said, "In the name of Allah," and struck another blow that uprooted the remaining part of the rock. He said, "Allah is the Greatest! I have been given the keys to the Yemen. By Allah, I can see the gates of Sana'a from my place."

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was asked, "Can we pray in the she-camel's resting place?" He said, "No." The person then asked, "Can we pray in the sheep's resting place?" He replied, "Yes." The person further asked, "Can we make ablution with camel meat?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Yes." Finally, the person asked, "Can we make ablution with sheep meat?" The Prophet ﷺ answered, "No." Abu Abdullah bin Abdullah Raziy, who was a judge, narrated this and said that his grandmother was a slave of Ali or a maid. Abdulla said that his father narrated this hadith from Adam and Sa'id bin Masruq, and they were trustworthy narrators.

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ who said: "Whoever gives a mudd (a unit of measurement) of perfume or guides someone to a market or gives milk to a person, he will have the reward of freeing a slave or giving life to a dead person. And whoever says 'La ilaha illa Allah, wahdahu la sharika lah, lahu al-mulku wa lahu al-hamdu wa huwa 'ala kulli shay'in qadir' ten times, he will have the reward of freeing a slave or giving life to a dead person. And he used to come to us when we stood for prayer, and he would wipe our chests or our shoulders and say: 'Do not differ in your rows, so your hearts will differ.' And he used to say: 'Indeed Allah and His angels send prayers upon the first row or the first rows.' And he said: 'Adorn the Quran with your voices, for I had forgotten it and Ad-Dahhak ibn Muzahim reminded me of it.'"

"When Allah's Messener arrived in Al-Madinah, he faced Bait Al-Maqdis in Salat for sixteen or seventeen months. Messenger of Allah longed to face the direction of the Ka'bah, so Allah Most High revealed: Verily! We have seen the turning of your face towards the heaven. Surely We shall turn you o a Qiblah that shall please you. So turn your face in the direction of Al-Masjid Al-Haram.So he faced the Ka'bah, and he liked that. A man performed the Asr prayer with him, then passed by some of the Ansar who were bowing in Salat for Asr while facing Bait Al-Maqdis." He told them that he had faced the direction of the Ka'bah, so they changed (their direction) while they were bowing." [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Ibn Umar, Ibn Abbas, Umarah bin Aws, Amr bin Awf Al-Muzani and Anas. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 340)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ زَيِّنُوا الْقُرْآنَ بِأَصْوَاتِكُمْ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ لَمْ يَحْنِ رَجُلٌ مِنَّا ظَهْرَهُ حَتَّى يَسْجُدَ ثُمَّ نَسْجُدَ

كُنَّا إِذَا صَلَّيْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِمَّا أَحَبَّ أَوْ نُحِبُّ أَنْ نَقُومَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ رَبِّ قِنِي عَذَابَكَ يَوْمَ تَجْمَعُ عِبَادَكَ أَوْ تَبْعَثُ عِبَادَكَ
