[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , say, "Indeed, a person may pray, but he may only receive a tenth, a ninth, an eighth, or a seventh of his prayer until he reaches the end of the count."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُصَلِّي وَلَعَلَّهُ أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ لَهُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ إِلَّا عُشْرُهَا وَتُسْعُهَا أَوْ ثُمُنُهَا أَوْ سُبُعُهَا حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى آخِرِ الْعَدَدِ  

[Machine] On the day of the Battle of Siffin, 'Ammaar said: "Bring me a cup of milk to drink, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'The last drink you will have in this world is a cup of milk.'" So they brought him a cup of milk and he drank it, then he advanced and was killed.  

عَمَّارٌ يَوْمَ صِفِّينَ ائْتُونِي بِشَرْبَةِ لَبَنٍ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ آخِرُ شَرْبَةٍ تَشْرَبُهَا مِنَ الدُّنْيَا شَرْبَةُ لَبَنٍ فَأُتِيَ بِشَرْبَةِ لَبَنٍ فَشَرِبَهَا ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ فَقُتِلَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "The example of my Ummah is like that of rain; it is unknown whether the beginning of it is better or its end."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَثَلُ أُمَّتِي مَثَلُ الْمَطَرِ لَا يُدْرَى أَوَّلُهُ خَيْرٌ أَمْ آخِرُهُ  

"We were with 'Umar when a man came to him and said: 'O Commander of the Believers! sometimes we stay for a month or two without finding any water. Umar said: As if I did not find water, I would not pray until I found water.' 'Ammar bin Yasir said: 'Do you remember, O Commander of the Believer, when you were in such and such a place and we were rearing the camels, and you know that we became Junub?' He said: 'Yes.' 'As for me I rolled in the dust, then we came to the Prophet ﷺ and he laughed and said: "Clean earth would have been sufficient for you." And he struck his hands on the earth then blew on them, then he wiped his face and part of his forearms. He ('Umar) said: "Fear Allah, O 'Ammar!'" He said: 'O Commander of the Believers! If you wish I will not mention it.' He said: 'No, we will let you bear the burden of what you took upon yourself.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 316)   

يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنَّا نَمْكُثُ الشَّهْرَ وَالشَّهْرَيْنِ لَا نَجِدُ الْمَاءَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَمْ أَكُنْ لِأُصَلِّيَ حَتَّى أَجِدَ الْمَاءَ فَقَالَ عَمَّارٌ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ تَذْكُرُ حَيْثُ كُنَّا بِمَكَانِ كَذَا وَنَحْنُ نَرْعَى الْإِبِلَ فَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّا أَجْنَبْنَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَإِنِّي تَمَرَّغْتُ فِي التُّرَابِ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ فَضَحِكَ وَقَالَ كَانَ الصَّعِيدُ الطَّيِّبُ كَافِيَكَ وَضَرَبَ بِكَفَّيْهِ الْأَرْضَ ثُمَّ نَفَخَ فِيهِمَا ثُمَّ مَسَحَ وَجْهَهُ وَبَعْضَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ قَالَ اتَّقِ اللهَ يَا عَمَّارُ قَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنْ شِئْتَ لَمْ أَذْكُرْهُ مَا عِشْتُ أَوْ مَا حَيِيتُ قَالَ كَلَّا وَاللهِ وَلَكِنْ نُوَلِّيكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ مَا تَوَلَّيْتَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, the last drink I will have is milk until I die."  

إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ آخِرَ شَرَابٍ أَشْرَبُهُ لَبَنٌ حَتَّى أَمُوتَ  

[Machine] "And by the One in whose hand is my soul, I have fought with this flag alongside the Messenger of Allah ﷺ three times, and this is the fourth. And by the One in whose hand is my soul, if they were to strike us until they reach us with the ends of the earth, I would know that our reformers are upon the truth and that they are upon misguidance."  

وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَقَدْ قَاتَلْتُ بِهَذِهِ الرَّايَةِ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَهَذِهِ الرَّابِعَةُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ ضَرَبُونَا حَتَّى يَبْلُغُوا بِنَا سَعَفَاتِ هَجَرَ لَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّ مُصْلِحِينَا عَلَى الْحَقِّ وَأَنَّهُمْ عَلَى الضَّلَالَةِ  

[Machine] I said to 'Ammar, "Have you seen your fight, as you saw it?" He said, "Hajjaj, have you seen this matter, meaning their fight, as you saw it?" For indeed, vision can be fallible or accurate, or it may be a covenant that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entrusted to you. So he (Ammar) said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not entrust us with anything that he did not entrust to all people." And he said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Indeed, in my nation,' and Shu'bah said, 'I believe he said it,' Huthayfah narrated to me that 'Indeed, in my nation there are twelve hypocrites who will not enter Paradise and will not even find its scent until a camel enters a needle's eye. Eight of them will suffice you with the Dubailah, a flame of fire that appears on their shoulders until it emerges in their chests."  

قُلْتُ لِعَمَّارٍ أَرَأَيْتَ قِتَالَكُمْ رَأْيًا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ أَرَأَيْتَ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ يَعْنِي قِتَالَهُمْ رَأْيًا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ؟ فَإِنَّ الرَّأْيَ يُخْطِئُ وَيُصِيبُ أَوْ عَهْدًا عَهِدَهُ إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ مَا عَهِدَإِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَعْهَدْهُ إِلَى النَّاسِ كَافَّةً وَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ فِي أُمَّتِي قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حُذَيْفَةُ إِنَّ فِي أُمَّتِي اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مُنَافِقًا فَقَالَ لَا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ وَلَا يَجِدُونَ رِيحَهَا حَتَّى يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ ثَمَانِيَةٌ مِنْهُمْ تَكْفِيكَهُمُ الدُّبَيْلَةُ سِرَاجٌ مِنْ نَارٍ يَظْهَرُ فِي أَكْتَافِهِمْ حَتَّى يَنْجُمَ فِي صُدُورِهِمْ  

I came to my family at night (after a journey) with my hands chapped and they perfumed me with saffron. In the morning I went to the Prophet ﷺ and gave him a greeting, but he did not respond to me nor did he welcome me. He said: Go away and wash this off yourself. I then went away and washed it off me. I came to him but there remained a spot of it on me. I give him a greeting, but he did not respond to me nor did he welcome me. He said: Go away and wash it off yourself. I then went away and washed it off me. I then came and gave him a greeting. He responded to me and welcomed me, saying: The angels do not attend the funeral of an unbeliever bringing good to it, nor a man who smears himself with saffron, nor a man who is sexually defiled. He said: He permitted the man who was sexually defiled to perform ablution when he slept, ate or drank. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4176)   

قَدِمْتُ عَلَى أَهْلِي لَيْلًا وَقَدْ تَشَقَّقَتْ يَدَايَ فَضَمَّخُونِي بِالزَّعْفَرَانِ فَغَدَوْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ وَلَمْ يُرَحِّبْ بِي فَقَالَ اغْسِلْ هَذَا قَالَ فَذَهَبْتُ فَغَسَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُ وَقَدْ بَقِيَ عَلَيَّ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ وَلَمْ يُرَحِّبْ بِي وَقَالَ اغْسِلْ هَذَا عَنْكَ فَذَهَبْتُ فَغَسَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَرَدَّ عَلَيَّ وَرَحَّبَ بِي وَقَالَ إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَا تَحْضُرُ جَنَازَةَ الْكَافِرِ وَلَا الْمُتَضَمِّخَ بِزَعْفَرَانٍ وَلَا الْجُنُبَ وَرَخَّصَ لِلْجُنُبِ إِذَا نَامَ أَوْ أَكَلَ أَوْ شَرِبَ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ  

"Do you remember when we were on a campaign, and I became Junub and rolled in the dust, then I came to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: 'This would have been sufficient.'" (One of the narrators) Shu'bah struck his hands on his knees and blew into his hands, then he wiped his face and palms with them once. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 317)   

عَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ أَمَا تَذْكُرُ حَيْثُ كُنَّا فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَأَجْنَبْتُ فَتَمَعَّكْتُ فِي التُّرَابِ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا يَكْفِيكَ هَكَذَا وَضَرَبَ شُعْبَةُ يَدَيْهِ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَنَفَخَ فِي يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ بِهِمَا وَجْهَهُ وَكَفَّيْهِ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً  

[Machine] We were with the Prophet ﷺ when a necklace belonging to Aisha was lost. The Prophet ﷺ stayed up until dawn searching for it. Abu Bakr became angry with Aisha and they were granted permission to perform Tayammum with sand. Abu Bakr entered upon Aisha and said, "You are blessed. We have been granted permission concerning you." Then, we struck our hands onto our faces and struck our hands on our thighs.  

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَهَلَكَ عِقْدٌ لِعَائِشَةَ فَأَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى أَضَاءَ الْفَجْرُ فَتَغَيَّظَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَنَزَلَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الرُّخْصَةُ فِي الْمَسْحِ بِالصُّعُدَاتِ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّكِ لَمُبَارَكَةٌ لَقَدْ نَزَلَ عَلَيْنَا فِيكِ رُخْصَةٌ فَضَرَبْنَا بِأَيْدِينَا لِوُجُوهِنَا وَضَرَبْنَا بِأَيْدِينَا ضَرْبَةً إِلَى الْمَنَاكِبِ وَالْآبَاطِ  

[Machine] Abu Rashid told us that Ammar delivered a sermon and exceeded the appropriate length in his speech. A man from the Quraysh said to him, "You have said something beneficial, but if only you had made it shorter." Ammar replied, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised against prolonging the sermon."  

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو رَاشِدٍ قَالَخَطَبَنَا عَمَّارٌ فَتَجَوَّزَ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ لَقَدْ قُلْتَ قَوْلًا شِفَاءً فَلَوْ أَنَّكَ أَطَلْتَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى أَنْ نُطِيلَ الْخُطْبَةَ  

[Machine] Yahya named that man and Umar forgot that Ammar said, "I was created with good manners, so I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he scolded me. He said, 'Go, O son of Ammar's mother, and wash yourself.' So I went and washed myself. Then I returned to him and he scolded me again. He said, 'Go back and wash yourself.' So I went and washed myself. Then I returned to him and he scolded me once more. He said, 'Go back and wash yourself.' So I went and washed myself three times."  

أَنَّ يَحْيَى قَدْ سَمَّى ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ وَنَسِيَهُ عُمَرُ أَنَّ عَمَّارًا قَالَ تَخَلَّقْتُ خَلُوقًا فَجِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَانْتَهَرَنِي وَقَالَ اذْهَبْ يَا ابْنَ أُمِّ عَمَّارٍ فَاغْسِلْ عَنْكَ فَرَجَعْتُ فَغَسَلْتُ عَنِّي قَالَ ثُمَّ رَجَعْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَانْتَهَرَنِي أَيْضًا قَالَ ارْجِعْ فَاغْسِلْ عَنْكَ فَذَكَرَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ  

[Machine] "He (referring to the Prophet Muhammad, ﷺ ) was on a journey with Aisha when her necklace got lost. The people were detained while searching for it until they were exhausted and had no water left. Then they performed Tayammum (dry ablution) instead. Ammar said, 'They stood up, wiped their hands and then struck their hands. They wiped their faces with their hands and then struck their hands for the second time. After that, they wiped their hands up to their armpits or (according to some narrations) up to their shoulders.'"  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ مَعَهُ عَائِشَةُ فَهَلَكَ عِقْدُهَا فَحُبِسَ النَّاسُ فِي ابْتِغَائِهِ حَتَّى أَصْبَحُوا وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُمْ مَاءٌ فَنَزَلَ التَّيَمُّمُ قَالَ عَمَّارٌ فَقَامُوا فَمَسَحُوا فَضَرَبُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ فَمَسَحُوا بِهَا وُجُوهَهُمْ ثُمَّ عَادُوافَضَرَبُوا بِأَيْدِيهِمْ ثَانِيَةً ثُمَّ مَسَحُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ إِلَى الْإِبِطَيْنِ أَوْ قَالَ إِلَى الْمَنَاكِبِ  

[Machine] He asked him, and he said, "Wudu is sufficient."  

فَسَأَلَهُفَقَالَ يَكْفِي مِنْهُ الْوُضُوءُ  

[Machine] "That the license which Allah revealed in the land, so he mentioned the hadeeth but he said that they struck their palms in the land, so they wiped their faces with it once, then they repeated and struck, so they wiped their hands up to the elbows and the wrists."  

أَنَّ الرُّخْصَةَ الَّتِي أَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ فِي الصَّعِيدِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّهُمْ ضَرَبُوا أَكُفَّهُمْ فِي الصَّعِيدِ فَمَسَحُوا بِهِ وُجُوهَهُمْ مَسْحَةً وَاحِدَةً ثُمَّعَادُوا فَضَرَبُوا فَمَسَحُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ إِلَى الْمَنَاكِبِ وَالْآبَاطِ  

[Machine] "So when he came out, I went to him and said, 'O Abu Al-Yaqzan, indeed you have lightened it.' He said, 'Have you seen me diminish any of its limits?' I said, 'No.' He said, 'Indeed, I hastened with it, in the haste of Satan. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Indeed, a servant may pray a prayer, and only a tenth of it is written for him, or a ninth, or an eighth, or a seventh, or a sixth, or a fifth, or a fourth, or a third, or a half.'"  

فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا الْيَقْظَانِ لَقَدْ خَفَّفْتَ قَالَ فَهَلْ رَأَيْتَنِي انْتَقَصْتُ مِنْ حُدُودِهَا شَيْئًا؟ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ فَإِنِّي بَادَرْتُ بِهَا سَهْوَةَ الشَّيْطَانِ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَيُصَلِّي الصَّلَاةَ مَا يُكْتَبُ لَهُ مِنْهَا إِلَّا عُشْرُهَا تُسْعُهَا ثُمُنُهَا سُبُعُهَا سُدُسُهَا خُمُسُهَا رُبُعُهَا ثُلُثُهَا نِصْفُهَا
