[Machine] "From his father, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave a sermon on the Day of Sacrifice and said, 'Indeed, the first of your rituals is this prayer.' Abu Burdah ibn Niyyar, his maternal uncle, stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, there was a day where we desired to eat meat, so we hurried and slaughtered (an animal).' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Replace it.' He said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we have a young goat.' He said, 'Then it is for you, and no one else after you.'"
عَنْ أَبِيهِ خَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أَوَّلَ نُسُكِكُمْ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةُ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ بْنُ نِيَارٍ خَالِي قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَكَانَ بَدْرِيًّا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَانَ يَوْمًا نَشْتَهِي فِيهِ اللَّحْمَ ثُمَّ إِنَّا عَجَّلْنَا فَذَبَحْنَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَبْدِلْهَا قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ عِنْدَنَا مَاعِزًا جَذَعًا قَالَ فَهِيَ لَكَ وَلَيْسَ لِأَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ
[Machine] We were sitting in the mosque on the day of Eid Al-Adha when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us and greeted the people. He then said, "Indeed, the first ritual of your day is this prayer." He then went forward and prayed two units of prayer, then he greeted and faced the people. He was given a bow or staff, so he leaned on it, praised and thanked Allah, commanded and prohibited the people, and said, "Whoever among you slaughtered (the animal) prematurely, let it be considered a piece of meat that he has given to his family. The sacrifice is only after the prayer." Then my uncle Abu Burdah bin Niyyar stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I rushed to slaughter my sheep so that we can have food to gather around when we return. I have a piece of meat from a goat, which is more than what I have slaughtered. Can you please exempt me from it, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Yes, and it will not be exempted for anyone after you." He then said, "O Bilal!" He said, "He walked and the Messenger of Allah followed him until he reached the women. He said, "O women, charity is better for you." He said, "I have never seen a day with more cut meat, necklaces, and earrings than that day."
كُنَّا جُلُوسًا فِي الْمُصَلَّى يَوْمَ أَضْحَى فَأَتَانَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّاسِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ أَوَّلَ نُسُكِ يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا الصَّلَاةُ قَالَ فَتَقَدَّمَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ ثُمَّ اسْتَقْبَلَ النَّاسَ بِوَجْهِهِ وَأُعْطِيَ قَوْسًا أَوْعَصًا فَاتَّكَأَ عَلَيْهِ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَأَمَرَهُمْ وَنَهَاهُمْ وَقَالَ مَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ عَجَّلَ ذَبْحًا فَإِنَّمَا هِيَ جَزْرَةٌ أَطْعَمَهُ أَهْلَهُ إِنَّمَا الذَّبْحُ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ خَالِي أَبُو بُرْدَةَ بْنُ نِيَارٍ فَقَالَ أَنَا عَجَّلْتُ ذَبْحَ شَاتِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لِيُصْنَعَ لَنَا طَعَامٌ نَجْتَمِعُ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا رَجَعْنَا وَعِنْدِي جَذَعَةٌ مِنْ مَعْزَى هِيَ أَوْفَى مِنَ الَّذِي ذَبَحْتُ أَفَتَفِي عَنِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَلَنْ تَفِيَ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا بِلَالُ قَالَ فَمَشَى وَاتَّبَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى أَتَى النِّسَاءَ فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسْوَانِ تَصَدَّقْنَ الصَّدَقَةُ خَيْرٌ لَكُنَّ قَالَ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ يَوْمًا قَطُّ أَكْثَرَ خَدَمَةً مَقْطُوعَةً وَقِلَادَةً وَقُرْطًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said. When you prostrate yourself, place the palms of your hands on the ground and raise your elbows. (Using translation from Muslim 494)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَجَدْتَ فَضَعْ كَفَّيْكَ وَارْفَعْ مِرْفَقَيْكَ
What is your opinion about the delight of a person whose camel loaded with the provisions of food and drink is lost and that moves about with its nosestring trailing upon the waterless desert in which there is neither food nor drink, and lie wanders about in search of that until he is completely exhausted and then accidentally it happens to pass by the trunk of a tree and its nosestring gets entangled in that and he finds it entangled therein? He (in response to the question of the Holy Prophet) said: Messenger of Allah, he would feel highly delighted. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said. By Allah, Allah is more delighted at the repentance of His servant than that person (as he finds his lost) camel. (Using translation from Muslim 2746)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَيْفَ تَقُولُونَ بِفَرَحِ رَجُلٍ انْفَلَتَتْ مِنْهُ رَاحِلَتُهُ تَجُرُّ زِمَامَهَا بِأَرْضٍ قَفْرٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا طَعَامٌ وَلَا شَرَابٌ وَعَلَيْهَا طَعَامٌ قَالَ عَفَّانُ وَشَرَابٌ فَطَلَبَهَا حَتَّى شَقَّ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ مَرَّتْ بِجِذْلِ شَجَرَةٍ قَالَ عَفَّانُ بِجِذْلٍ فَتَعَلَّقَ زِمَامُهَا فَوَجَدَهَا مُعَلَّقَةً بِهِ قَالَ عَفَّانُ مُتَعَلِّقَةً بِهِ قَالَ قُلْنَا شَدِيدٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَا وَاللهِ لَلَّهُ أَشَدُّ فَرَحًا بِتَوْبَةِ عَبْدِهِ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ بِرَاحِلَتِهِ
[Machine] We heard it from the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , as our companions narrated it to us. It used to occupy our attention from tending to the camels.
سَمِعْنَاهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُنَا أَصْحَابُنَا عَنْهُ كَانَتْ تَشْغَلُنَا عَنْهُ رَعِيَّةُ الْإِبِلِ
The Prophet ﷺ said: Beautify the Qur'an with your voices. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1468)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ زَيِّنُوا الْقُرْآنَ بِأَصْوَاتِكُمْ
[Machine] Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is obligatory upon Muslims on the Day of Friday to perform ghusl (ritual bath) and apply fragrance, if available. If fragrance is not available, then water is sufficient."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مِنَ الْحَقِّ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ وَيَمَسَّ طِيبًا إِنْ وَجَدَ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ طِيبًا فَالْمَاءُ طِيبٌ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was the first to arrive in Medina and stayed with his ancestors and extended family from the Ansar. He prayed facing the direction of Bait al-Maqdis (Jerusalem) for sixteen or seventeen months, and he preferred for his qibla (direction of prayer) to be towards the Kaaba. He also prayed the Asr prayer as the first prayer he offered in Medina, and some people prayed with him. A man who had prayed with him later passed by a group of people who were in the state of rukoo' (bowing) in prayer and said, "I bear witness by Allah that I have prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ facing towards Makkah." They turned and faced the Kaaba in prayer. It pleased the Prophet ﷺ to have the qibla changed, and the Jews were amazed when he used to pray facing Bait al-Maqdis, just as the people of the Book were. However, when he turned his face towards the Kaaba they disapproved of it.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ أَوَّلَ مَا قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ نَزَلَ عَلَى أَجْدَادِهِ وَأَخْوَالِهِ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَأَنَّهُ صَلَّى قِبَلَ بَيْتِالْمَقْدِسِ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ أَوْ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا وَكَانَ يُعْجِبُهُ أَنْ تَكُونَ قِبْلَتُهُ قِبَلَ الْبَيْتِ وَأَنَّهُ صَلَّى أَوَّلَ صَلَاةٍ صَلَّاهَا صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ وَصَلَّى مَعَهُ قَوْمٌ فَخَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِمَّنْ صَلَّى مَعَهُ فَمَرَّ عَلَى أَهْلِ مَسْجِدٍ وَهُمْ رَاكِعُونَ فَقَالَ أَشْهَدُ بِاللهِ لَقَدْ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قِبَلَ مَكَّةَ قَالَ فَدَارُوا كَمَا هُمْ قِبَلَ الْبَيْتِ وَكَانَ يُعْجِبُهُ أَنْ يُحَوَّلَ قِبَلَ الْبَيْتِ وَكَانَ الْيَهُودُ قَدْ أَعْجَبَهُمْ إِذْ كَانَ يُصَلِّي قِبَلَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ وَأَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ فَلَمَّا وَلَّى وَجْهَهُ قِبَلَ الْبَيْتِ أَنْكَرُوا ذَلِكَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed for his son Ibrahim, who passed away at the age of sixteen months, and said, 'He has someone who will nurse him in Paradise, and he is Siddiq.'
صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى ابْنِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمَاتَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا وَقَالَ إِنَّ لَهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مَنْ تُتِمُّ رَضَاعَهُ وَهُوَ صِدِّيقٌ
[Machine] We heard it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , but our companions narrated it to us, and the care of camels used to occupy us.
سَمِعْنَاهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَكِنْ حَدَّثَنَا أَصْحَابُنَا وَكَانَتْ تَشْغَلُنَا رَعِيَّةُ الْإِبِلِ
[Machine] A man from the Ansar came with a prisoner. Al-Abbas said, "O Messenger of Allah, this is not the prisoner who captured me, but rather a man from the tribe who took me out of his appearance like this and like that." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the man, "Indeed, Allah has aided you with a noble angel."
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ بِالْعَبَّاسِ قَدْ أَسَرَهُ فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَيْسَ هَذَا أَسَرَنِي أَسَرَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ أَنْزِعُ مِنْ هَيْئَتِهِ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِلرَّجُلِ لَقَدْ آزَرَكَ اللهُ بِمَلَكٍ كَرِيمٍ
"None but the believer loves them, none but the hypocrite hates them. He who loves them loves Allah and he who hates them hates Allah." I (the narrator) said: Did you hear this hadith from al-Bara'? He said: He narrated it to me. (Using translation from Muslim 75)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يُحِبُّ الْأَنْصَارَ إِلَّا مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يُبْغِضُهُمْ إِلَّا مُنَافِقٌ مَنْ أَحَبَّهُمْ أَحَبَّهُ اللهُ وَمَنْ أَبْغَضَهُمْ أَبْغَضَهُ اللهُ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ قُلْتُ لِعَدِيٍّ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُمِنَ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ إِيَّايَ يُحَدِّثُ
[Machine] That the Prophet ﷺ was carrying Al-Hasan, so he said: "Indeed, I love him, so I love him."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ حَامِلًا الْحَسَنَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أُحِبُّهُ فَأَحِبَّهُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Ibrahim, "There is a breastfeeding child in Paradise."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ مُرْضِعٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ
We went out on a journey along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He led us in the night prayer and he recited in one of the rak'ahs: "By the fig and the olive." (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1221)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَقَرَأَ فِي الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ فِي إِحْدَى الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بِالتِّينِ وَالزَّيْتُونِ
"The Messenger of Allah commanded us to do seven things, and forbade us form seven things. He commanded us to visit the risk, to reply (say: Yarhamuk Allah, may Allah have mercy on you) to one who sneezes, to fulfill our oaths, to support the oppressed, to spread the greeting of Salam, to accept invitation, and to attend funerals. And he forbade us from using gold rings, silver vessels, Mayathir, the Qasiyyah, Al-Istabraq, silk and Ad-Dibaj." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1939)
أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِسَبْعٍ وَنَهَانَا عَنْ سَبْعٍ قَالَ فَذَكَرَ مَا أَمَرَهُمْ مِنْ عِيَادَةِ الْمَرِيضِ وَاتِّبَاعِ الْجَنَائِزِ وَتَشْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ وَرَدِّ السَّلَامِ وَإِبْرَارِ الْمُقْسِمِ وَإِجَابَةِ الدَّاعِي وَنَصْرِ الْمَظْلُومِ وَنَهَانَا عَنْ آنِيَةِ الْفِضَّةِ وَعَنْ خَاتَمِ الذَّهَبِ أَوْ قَالَ حَلْقَةِ الذَّهَبِ وَالْإِسْتَبْرَقِ وَالْحَرِيرِ وَالدِّيبَاجِ وَالْمِيثَرَةِ وَالْقَسِّيِّ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ تَسْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ
"Allah and His angels say salah upon the front rows, and the Mu'adhdhin will be forgiven as far as his voice reaches, and whatever hears him, wet or dry, will confirm what he says, and he will have a reward like that of those who pray with him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 646)
أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى الصَّفِّ الْمُقَدَّمِ وَالْمُؤَذِّنُ يُغْفَرُ لَهُ مَدَّ صَوْتِهِ وَيُصَدِّقُهُ مَنْ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ رَطْبٍ وَيَابِسٍ وَلَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ صَلَّى مَعَهُ
[Machine] Narrated to us Mu'adh bin Hisham, then he mentioned something similar with its chain of transmission.
حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ
[Machine] "When this verse was revealed, 'Those who stay behind from the believers are not equal to those who strive in the cause of Allah' [Surah An-Nisa, 4: 95] and 'And those who strive in the cause of Allah' [Surah An-Nisa, 4: 95], the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called Zaid and he brought a shoulder blade and wrote it (the verse) down. Then Ibn Umm Maktum came and complained to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so the verse 'Except for those who are disabled' [Surah An-Nisa, 4: 95] was revealed."
لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {لَا يَسْتَوِي الْقَاعِدُونَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ} [النساء 95] {وَالْمُجَاهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ} [النساء 95] دَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ زَيْدًا فَجَاءَ بِكَتِفٍ فَكَتَبَهَا قَالَ فَجَاءَ ابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ فَشَكَاضَرَارَتَهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَنَزَلَتْ {غَيْرُ أُولِي الضَّرَرِ } [النساء 95]
[Machine] A man read Surah Al-Kahf while he had a tied-up animal. The animal became restless, so the man looked up and saw a cloud covering him or a mist. He got scared and went to the Prophet ﷺ . I asked if the Prophet ﷺ mentioned that man. He said yes, and then I said, "Who is that man?" He replied, "That man is so-and-so." I said, "He was reading Surah Al-Kahf, and tranquility descended upon him, or it was found nearby him."
قَرَأَ رَجُلٌ سُورَةَ الْكَهْفِ وَلَهُ دَابَّةٌ مَرْبُوطَةٌ فَجَعَلَتِ الدَّابَّةُ تَنْفِرُ فَنَظَرَ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى سَحَابَةٍ قَدْ غَشِيَتْهُ أَوْ ضَبَابَةٍ فَفَزِعَ فَذَهَبَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قُلْتُ سَمَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ذَاكَ الرَّجُلَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ اقْرَأْ فُلَانُ فَإِنَّ السَّكِينَةَ نَزَلَتْ لِلْقُرْآنِ أَوْ عِنْدَ الْقُرْآنِ
“I heard ‘Ubaid bin Fairuz say: ‘I said to Bara’ bin ‘Azib: “Tell us of the sacrificial animals that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ disliked or forbade.” He said: “Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said like this with his hand. And my hand is shorter than his hand:* ‘There are four that will not be accepted as sacrifices: The one-eyed animal that is obviously blind in one eye; the sick animal that is obviously sick; the lame animal with an obvious limp; and the animal that is so emaciated that it is as if there is no marrow in its bones.’” He said:** “And I dislike that the animal should have some fault in its ears.” He said: “What you dislike, forget about it and do not make it forbidden to anyone.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3144)
عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَاكَرِهَ فَقَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْ قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَيَدِي أَقْصَرُ مِنْ يَدِهِ فَقَالَ أَرْبَعٌ لَا تُجْزِئُ الْعَوْرَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ عَوَرُهَا وَالْمَرِيضَةُ الْبَيِّنُ مَرَضُهَا وَالْعَرْجَاءُ الْبَيِّنُ ظَلْعُهَا وَالْكَسِيرُ الَّتِي لَا تُنْقِي قَالَ قُلْتُ فَإِنِّي أَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي الْقَرْنِ نَقْصٌ أَوْ قَالَ فِي الْأُذُنِ نَقْصٌ أَوْ فِي السِّنِّ نَقْصٌ قَالَ مَا كَرِهْتَ فَدَعْهُ وَلَا تُحَرِّمْهُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ
[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to, when he raised his head from bowing, stand upright until he prostrated, and then they would prostrate."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَامُوا قِيَامًا حَتَّى يَسْجُدَ ثُمَّ يَسْجُدُونَ
[Machine] The first to come to us from the companions of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , was Mus'ab bin Umair and Ibn Umm Maktum. They began teaching the people the Quran. Then, Ammar, Bilal, and Saad came. Then, Umar bin Al-Khattab came in twenty [people], and then the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , came. I have never seen the people of Medina rejoice over anything as they rejoiced over seeing him. Even the children and infants were saying, "This is the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , who has come." He said, "I had not arrived until I recited the Surah Subhan" in a detailed Surah.
أَوَّلُ مَنْ قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ وَابْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ قَالَ فَجَعَلَا يُقْرِئَانِ النَّاسَ الْقُرْآنَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ عَمَّارٌ وَبِلَالٌ وَسَعْدٌ قَالَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ فِي عِشْرِينَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَا رَأَيْتُ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ فَرِحُوا بِشَيْءٍ قَطُّ فَرَحَهُمْ بِهِ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ الْوَلَائِدَ وَالصِّبْيَانَ يَقُولُونَ هَذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ جَاءَ قَالَ فَمَا قَدِمَحَتَّى قَرَأْتُ بِسَبِّحْ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى فِي سُوَرٍ مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was carrying the earth with us on the Day of Ahzab and the whiteness of his belly had been covered with earth. (While engaged in this toil) he was reciting: By God, if Thou hadst not guided us We would have neither been guided aright nor practised charity, Nor offered prayers. Descend on us peace and tranquillity. Behold I these people (the Meccans) refused to follow us. According to another version, he recited: The chieftains (of the tribes) refused to follow us When they contemplated mischief, we rejected it. And with this (verse) he would raise his voice. (Using translation from Muslim 1803a)
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ مَعَنَا التُّرَابَ يَوْمَ الْأَحْزَابِ وَيَقُولُ اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا إِنَّ الْأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا وَإِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا يَمُدُّ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ
The bowing of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and when he raised his head from bowing, and his prostration, and the time between the two prostration, were almost equal in length. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1065)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا رَكَعَ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ وَسُجُودُهُ وَمَا بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ قَرِيبًا مِنَ السَّوَاءِ
the Prophet (saas) said to a man: "When you go to lay down, or go to your bed, say: Allahumma aslamtu wajhi ilayka, wa al-ja'tu zahri ilayka, wa fawwadtu amri ilayka, raghbatan wa rahbatan ilayka, la malja'a wa la manja'a minka illa ilayka, amantu bi kitabikal-ladhi anzalta, wa nabiyyikal arsalta [O Allah, I have submitted my face (i.e., myself) to You, and I am under Your command (i.e., I depend upon You in all my affairs), and I put my trust in You, hoping for Your reward and fearing Your punishment. There is no fleeing from You and no refuge from You except with You. I believe in Your Book that You have revealed and in Your Prophet whom You have sent).' Then if you die that night, you will die in a state of the Fitrah (nature), and if you wake in the morning you will wake with a great deal of good." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3876)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَنْ يَقُولَ إِذَا أَخَذَ مَضْجَعَهُ اللهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ لَا مَلْجَأَ وَلَا مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ وَنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ فَإِنْ مَاتَ مَاتَ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ
[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, "Whoever gives a gift of a leaf or a gift of milk or offers a drink at the watering place, he is like one who frees a slave. And whoever says 'There is no God but Allah, alone, without any partner, to Him belongs the kingdom and to Him is all praise, and He is capable of all things,' he is like one who frees a slave. He used to come to their side and stand beside them, and level their chests and shoulders and say, 'Do not differ, lest your hearts differ.' He used to say, 'Indeed, Allah and His angels send blessings upon the first rows.' And he used to say, 'Adorn the Quran with your voices.'"
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ مَنَحَ مِنْحَةَ وَرِقٍ أَوْ مِنْحَةَ لَبَنٍ أَوْ هَدَى زُقَاقًا فَهُوَ كَعِتَاقِ نَسَمَةٍ وَمَنْ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ فَهُوَ كَعِتَاقِ نَسَمَةٍ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَأْتِي نَاحِيَةَ الصَّفِّ إِلَى نَاحِيَتِهِ يُسَوِّي صُدُورَهُمْ وَمَنَاكِبَهُمْ يَقُولُ لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا فَتَخْتَلِفَ قُلُوبُكُمْ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى الصُّفُوفِ الْأُوَلِ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ زَيِّنُوا الْقُرْآنَ بِأَصْوَاتِكُمْ
"I heard 'Abdullah bin Yazid delivering a Khutbah. He said: 'Al-Bara, who was no liar,told us that when they prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would raise his head from bowing and they would remain standing until they saw him prostrate, then they would prostrate."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 829)
حَدَّثَنَا الْبَرَاءُ وَكَانَ غَيْرَ كَذُوبٍ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا صَلَّوْا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَامُوا قِيَامًا حَتَّى يَرَوْهُ قَدْ سَجَدَ فَيَسْجُدُوا
[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet, ﷺ , he said: "Whoever gives a gift of a palm leaf or offers a palm leaf as charity or gives water to others or gives milk to others, then for him is the reward of freeing a slave or a breath of life. And whoever says 'There is no god but Allah, alone without partner. To Him belongs the kingdom and to Him belongs all praise. And He is capable of all things,' ten times, for him is the reward of freeing a slave or a breath of life." He said: "And he used to come to us when we rose for prayer and would wipe our necks or chests. And he used to say: 'Do not differ, for your hearts will differ.' And he used to say: 'Indeed, Allah and His angels send prayers upon the first row or the rows."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ مَنَحَ مِنْحَةَ وَرِقٍ أَوْ مَنَحَ وَرِقًا أَوْ هَدَى زُقَاقًا أَوْ سَقَى لَبَنًا كَانَ لَهُ عَدْلَ رَقَبَةٍ أَوْ نَسَمَةٍ وَمَنْ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ كَانَ لَهُ كَعَدْلِ رَقَبَةٍ أَوْ نَسَمَةٍ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَأْتِينَا إِذَا قُمْنَا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَيَمْسَحُ عَوَاتِقَنَا أَوْ صُدُورَنَا وَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا فَتَخْتَلِفَ قُلُوبُكُمْ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَىالصَّفِّ الْأَوَّلِ أَوِ الصُّفُوفِ الْأُوَلِ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever refers to the city as Yathrib should seek forgiveness from Allah for it is Madinah, it is Madinah."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَمَّى الْمَدِينَةَ يَثْرِبَ فَلْيَسْتَغْفِرِ اللهَ ﷻ هِيَ طَابَةُ هِيَ طَابَةُ
[Machine] It means "The Prophet ﷺ used to pray Qunut in the morning and in the evening."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَنَتَ فِي الصُّبْحِ وَفِي الْمَغْرِبِ
[Machine] The translation of the passage is as follows: "O Allah, our Lord, to You belongs all praise, filling the heavens, filling the earth, and filling whatever You will of anything after it. The worthy of praise and glory are the people of praise. There is no preventer for what You have given, and no giver for what You have prevented. The one who is earnest is not benefited by seriousness from You." Al-Hakim said, "So I narrated that to Abdur-Rahman ibn Abi Layla who said, 'Al-Bara ibn Azib narrated to me that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to bow, and when he raised his head from bowing, and his prostration and what is in between the two prostrations were nearly equal in length.'"
قَدْرَ قَوْلِهِ اللهُمَّ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ مِلْءَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَمِلْءَ الْأَرْضِ وَمِلْءَ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ بَعْدَهُ أَهْلَ الثَّنَاءِ وَالْمَجْدِ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَلَا مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ وَلَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ قَالَ الْحَكَمُ فَحَدَّثْتُ ذَاكَ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ أَبِي لَيْلَى فَقَالَحَدَّثَنِي الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ عَازِبٍ قَالَ كَانَ رُكُوعُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِذَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ وَسُجُودُهُ وَمَا بَيْنَ السَّجْدَتَيْنِ قَرِيبًا مِنَ السَّوَاءِ
"I heard 'Abdullah bin Yazid delivering a Khutbah. He said: 'Al-Bara, who was no liar,told us that when they prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would raise his head from bowing and they would remain standing until they saw him prostrate, then they would prostrate."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 829)
حَدَّثَنَا الْبَرَاءُ فَكَانَ غَيْرَ كَذُوبٍ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا صَلَّوْا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ قَامُوا قِيَامًا حَتَّى يَرَوْهُ سَاجِدًا ثُمَّ سَجَدُوا
“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his Companions came out to us and we entered Ihram for Hajj. When we came to Makkah, he said: ‘Make your Hajj (to) ‘Umrah.’ The people said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, we have entered Ihram for Hajj, how can we make it ‘Umrah?’ He said: ‘Look at what I command you to do, and do it.’ They repeated their question and he got angry and went away. Then he entered upon ‘Aishah angry and she saw anger in his face, and said: ‘Who has made you angry? May Allah vex him!’ He said: ‘Why should I not get angry, when I give a command and it is not obeyed?’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2982)
خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ قَالَ فَأَحْرَمْنَا بِالْحَجِّ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ قَالَ اجْعَلُوا حَجَّكُمْ عُمْرَةً قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ أَحْرَمْنَا بِالْحَجِّ فَكَيْفَ نَجْعَلُهَا عُمْرَةً؟ قَالَ انْظُرُوا مَا آمُرُكُمْ بِهِ فَافْعَلُوا فَرَدُّوا عَلَيْهِ الْقَوْلَ فَغَضِبَ ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ حَتَّى دَخَلَ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ غَضْبَانَ فَرَأَتِ الْغَضَبَ فِي وَجْهِهِ فَقَالَتْ مَنْ أَغْضَبَكَ أَغْضَبَهُ اللهُ؟ قَالَ وَمَا لِي لَا أَغْضَبُ وَأَنَا آمُرُ بِالْأَمْرِ فَلَا أُتَّبَعُ
[Machine] We were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ and he said, "Which garment of Islam is the most secure?" They said, "Prayer." He said, "Good, but what is there in it?" They said, "Charity." He said, "Good, but what is there in it?" They said, "Fasting in Ramadan." He said, "Good, but what is there in it?" They said, "Hajj." He said, "Good, but what is there in it?" They said, "Jihad." He said, "The most secure garment of faith is: to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah."
كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَيُّ عُرَى الْإِسْلَامِ أَوْثَقُ؟ قَالُوا الصَّلَاةُ قَالَ حَسَنَةٌ وَمَا هِيَ بِهَا؟ قَالُوا الزَّكَاةُ قَالَ حَسَنَةٌ وَمَا هِيَ بِهَا؟ قَالُوا صِيَامُ رَمَضَانَ قَالَ حَسَنٌ وَمَا هُوَ بِهِ؟ قَالُوا الْحَجُّ قَالَ حَسَنٌ وَمَا هُوَ بِهِ؟ قَالُوا الْجِهَادُ قَالَ حَسَنٌ وَمَا هُوَ بِهِ؟ قَالَ إِنَّ أَوْثَقَ عُرَى الْإِيمَانِ أَنْ تُحِبَّ فِي اللهِ وَتُبْغِضَ فِي اللهِ
The people passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with a Jew who was blackened with charcoal and who was being flogged. He called them and said: Is this the prescribed punishment for a fornicator? They said: Yes. He then called on a learned man among them and asked him: I adjure you by Allah Who revealed the Torah to Moses, do you find this prescribed punishment for a fornicator in your divine Book? He said: By Allah, no. If you had not adjured me about this, I should not have informed you. We find stoning to be prescribed punishment for a fornicator in our Divine Book. But it (fornication) became frequent in our people of rank; so when we seized a person of rank, we left him alone, and when we seized a weak person, we inflicted the prescribed punishment on him. So we said: Come, let us agree on something which may be enforced equally on people of higher and lower rank. So we agreed to blacken the face of a criminal with charcoal, and flog him, and we abandoned stoning. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: O Allah, I am the first to give life to Thy command which they have killed. So he commanded regarding him (the Jew) and he was stoned to death. Allah Most High then sent down: "O Apostle, let not those who race one another into unbelief, make thee grieve..." up to "They say: If you are given this, take it, but if not, beware!...." up to "And if any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) unbelievers," about Jews, up to "And if any do fail to judge by (the right of) what Allah hath revealed, they are no better than) wrong-doers" about Jews: and revealed the verses up to "And if any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel." About this he said: This whole verse was revealed about the infidels. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4448)

[Machine] He prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ the last night prayer, then he recited Surah At-Tin and Surah Az-Zaitoun.
أَنَّهُ صَلَّى خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْعِشَاءَ الْآخِرَةَ فَقَرَأَ وَالتِّينِ وَالزَّيْتُونِ
[Machine] I prayed behind the Prophet ﷺ for the Maghrib prayer, and he recited Surah At-Tin and Surah Az-Zaitun.
صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الْمَغْرِبَ فَقَرَأَ بِالتِّينِ وَالزَّيْتُونِ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, they are the disbelievers" [Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:44]. "And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, they are the wrongdoers" [Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:45]. "And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, they are the rebellious" [Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:47]. He said, "This applies to all disbelievers."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Spread peace, and you will be safe. And beware of any harm."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْشُواالسَّلَامَ تَسْلَمُوا وَالْأَشَرَةُ شَرُّ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever says 'There is no god but Allah, alone, without partner. His is the kingdom, and His is the praise, and He is able to do all things' or gives a gift or guides a person who is lost, it is as if he has freed a slave." Abu Abdur-Rahman said: "I heard my father say that Yahya bin Adam rarely mentioned anything to the people that I did not hear him mention, except for one time when he mentioned the name of Qanan. He said: 'He told us one day, "This is not from your door."'"

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ أَوْ مَنَحَ مِنْحَةً أَوْ هَدَى زُقَاقًا كَانَ كَمَنْ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ كَانَ يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ قَلِيلَ الذِّكْرِ لِلنَّاسِ مَا سَمِعْتُهُ ذَكَرَ أَحَدًا غَيْرَ قَنَانٍ قَالَ قَالَ لَنَا يَوْمًا لَيْسَ هَذَا مِنْ بَابَتِكُمْ
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered us with seven things and he forbade us from seven. He ordered us to follow the funeral, visit the ill, reply to the sneezing person, accept the invitation, assist the oppressed, to help the one who made an oath, and to return the Salam. And he forbade us from seven things: From the gold ring, or ringlets of gold, silver vessels, wearing silk, Ad-Dibaj, Al-Istabraq, And Al-Qassi." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2809)
أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِسَبْعٍ وَنَهَى عَنْ سَبْعٍ قَالَ نَهَى عَنِ التَّخَتُّمِ بِالذَّهَبِ وَعَنِ الشُّرْبِ فِي آنِيَةِ الْفِضَّةِ وَآنِيَةِ الذَّهَبِ وَعَنْ لُبْسِ الدِّيبَاجِ وَالْحَرِيرِ وَالْإِسْتَبْرَقِ وَعَنْ لُبْسِ الْقَسِّيِّ وَعَنْ رُكُوبِ الْمِيثَرَةِ الْحَمْرَاءِ وَأَمَرَ بِسَبْعٍ عِيَادَةِ الْمَرِيضِ وَاتِّبَاعِ الْجَنَائِزِ وَتَشْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ وَرَدِّ السَّلَامِ وَإِبْرَارِ الْمُقْسِمِ وَنَصْرِ الْمَظْلُومِ وَإِجَابَةِ الدَّاعِي
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ delivered a sermon to us on the Day of Nahr and he said: 'None of you should slaughter until he performs the Salat." He said: 'So my maternal uncle stood and said: ' O Messenger of Allah, this is the day in which meat is disliked, and I hastened my sacrifice to feed my family and the people of my dwellings - or - 'my neighbors.' He said: 'Repeat your slaughter with another.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ I have a she-kid that has better meat than my sheep, should I slaughter it?' He said: 'Yes, and it is better and it will suffice for you, but a Jadha' will not be accepted after you.' " (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1508)
خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي يَوْمِ نَحْرٍ فَقَالَ لَا يَذْبَحَنَّ أَحَدٌ حَتَّى نُصَلِّيَ فَقَامَ خَالِي فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَذَا يَوْمٌ اللَّحْمُ فِيهِ مَكْرُوهٌ وَإِنِّي عَجَّلْتُ وَإِنِّي ذَبَحْتُ نَسِيكَتِي لِأُطْعِمَ أَهْلِي وَأَهْلَ دَارِي أَوْ أَهْلِي وَجِيرَانِي فَقَالَ قَدْ فَعَلْتَ فَأَعِدْ ذَبْحًا آخَرَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عِنْدِي عَنَاقُ لَبَنٍ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ شَاتَيْ لَحْمٍ أَفَأَذْبَحُهَا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَهِيَ خَيْرُ نَسِيكَتَيكَ وَلَا تَقْضِي جَذَعَةٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ
Angels at the time of death of a believer vs. a disbeliever
We went out with the Prophet ﷺ for the funeral of a man from the Ansar. When we arrived at the grave and it had not yet been dug, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down, and we sat around him as if birds were on our heads (in silence and stillness). In his hand, he had a stick with which he was striking the ground. Then he raised his head and said twice or thrice, "Seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave."
Then he said, "When the believing servant is about to depart from this world and head towards the Hereafter, angels from the heavens descend upon him, their faces as bright as the sun, bringing shrouds from Paradise and fragrance from Paradise. They sit at a distance that the eye can see. Then the Angel of Death, ﷺ , comes and sits by his head and says, 'O good soul, come out to forgiveness and pleasure from Allah.’ It comes out as gently as a drop flows from a water-skin, and the Angel of Death takes it. When he takes it, they (the angels) do not leave it in his hand even for the twinkling of an eye; they take it and place it in that shroud and that fragrance. From it emanates a fragrance like the sweetest scent of musk ever found on the face of the earth.
Then they ascend with it. They do not pass by a group of angels but they say, 'What is this good soul?’ They reply, 'It is so-and-so, the son of so-and-so,' using the best names by which people called him in this world, until they reach the first heaven. They ask for it to be opened, and it is opened for them. The closest angels from each heaven accompany him to the next heaven until they reach the seventh heaven. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, says, 'Record the book of My servant in Illiyyin (the highest heaven) and return him to the earth, for I have created them from it and return them into it, and from it, I will bring them forth once again.'
His soul is then returned to his body, and two angels come to him, make him sit up and ask him, 'Who is your Lord?' He replies, 'My Lord is Allah.’ They then ask, 'What is your religion?' He replies, 'My religion is Islam.’ They further ask, 'Who is this man who was sent among you?' He says, 'He is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.’ They will ask him, 'What is your knowledge?' He replies, 'I read the Book of Allah, believed in it, and accepted it as true.’ Then a voice calls from the heaven, saying, 'My servant has spoken the truth. Furnish him from Paradise and clothe him from Paradise, and open a door for him to Paradise.' Then he is provided with some of its fragrance and pleasant smell, and his grave is made wide, as far as the eye can see.
Then a man with a handsome face, beautiful clothing, and a good scent comes to him and says, 'Rejoice with what pleases you, for this is your day which you were promised.’ He asks, 'Who are you? Your face is one that brings good.’ He replies, 'I am your righteous deeds.’ Then he says, 'O Lord, establish the Hour so that I may return to my family and my wealth.'
When the disbelieving servant is about to depart from this world and head towards the Hereafter, angels descend upon him from the heavens. Their faces are dark, and they bring sackcloth. They sit at a distance that the eye can see. Then the Angel of Death comes and sits by his head and says, 'O foul soul, come out to the displeasure and wrath of Allah.’ It recoils within his body, and he drags it out like a skewer being pulled from wet wool. When he takes it, they do not let it stay in his hand even for the twinkling of an eye; they take it and place it in that sackcloth. From it emanates a stench like the foulest stench of a dead body ever found on the face of the earth.
Then they ascend with it. They do not pass by a group of angels but they say, 'What is this foul soul?' They reply, 'It is so-and-so, the son of so-and-so,' using the worst names by which people called him in this world, until they reach the first heaven. They ask for it to be opened, but it is not opened for them." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited: 'The gates of heaven will not be opened for them, nor will they enter Paradise until a camel can pass through the eye of a needle.' (7:40) Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, says, 'Record his book in Sijjin (in the lowest earth) and return him to the earth, for I have created them from it and return them into it, and from it, I will bring them forth once again.' His soul is then cast down.” Then the Messenger of Allah recited: 'And whoever ascribes partners to Allah, it is as though he had fallen from the sky and the birds had snatched him, or the wind had blown him to a far-off place.' (22:31)
His soul is then returned to his body, and two angels come and make him sit up and ask him, 'Who is your Lord?' He replies, 'Alas, alas, I do not know.’ They ask, 'What is your religion?' He replies, 'Alas, alas, I do not know.’ They ask, 'Who is this man who was sent among you?' He replies, 'Alas, alas, I do not know.' Then a voice calls from the heaven, saying, 'He has lied, so furnish him from Hellfire and open a door for him to Hell.' Then some of its heat and hot wind comes to him, and his grave is made narrow, so much so that his ribs are crushed together.
Then a man with an ugly face, ugly clothing, and a foul smell comes to him and says, 'Rejoice with what displeases you, for this is your day which you were promised.’ He asks, 'Who are you? Your face is one that brings evil.’ He replies, 'I am your evil deeds.’ Then he says, 'O Lord, do not establish the Hour.’"
خَرَجْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي جِنَازَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَانْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ وَلَمَّا يُلْحَدْ فَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَجَلَسْنَا حَوْلَهُ كَأَنَّ عَلَى رُءُوسِنَا الطَّيْرَ وَفِي يَدِهِ عُودٌ يَنْكُتُ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ اسْتَعِيذُوا بِاللهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا
ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا كَانَ فِي انْقِطَاعٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَإِقْبَالٍ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ نَزَلَ إِلَيْهِ مَلَائِكَةٌ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ بِيضُ الْوُجُوهِ كَأَنَّ وُجُوهَهُمُ الشَّمْسُ مَعَهُمْ كَفَنٌ مِنْ أَكْفَانِ الْجَنَّةِ وَحَنُوطٌ مِنْ حَنُوطِ الْجَنَّةِ حَتَّى يَجْلِسُوا مِنْهُ مَدَّ الْبَصَرِ ثُمَّ يَجِيءُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ حَتَّى يَجْلِسَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ فَيَقُولُ أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الطَّيِّبَةُ اخْرُجِي إِلَى مَغْفِرَةٍ مِنَ اللهِ وَرِضْوَانٍ قَالَ فَتَخْرُجُ تَسِيلُ كَمَا تَسِيلُ الْقَطْرَةُ مِنْ فِي السِّقَاءِ فَيَأْخُذُهَا فَإِذَا أَخَذَهَا لَمْ يَدَعُوهَا فِي يَدِهِ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ حَتَّى يَأْخُذُوهَا فَيَجْعَلُوهَا فِي ذَلِكَ الْكَفَنِ وَفِي ذَلِكَ الْحَنُوطِ وَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا كَأَطْيَبِ نَفْحَةِ مِسْكٍ وُجِدَتْ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ
قَالَ فَيَصْعَدُونَ بِهَا فَلَا يَمُرُّونَ يَعْنِي بِهَا عَلَى مَلَإٍ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ إِلَّا قَالُوا مَا هَذَا الرُّوحُ الطَّيِّبُ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ فُلَانُ بْنُ فُلَانٍ بِأَحْسَنِ أَسْمَائِهِ الَّتِي كَانُوا يُسَمُّونَهُ بِهَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَنْتَهُوا بِهَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَسْتَفْتِحُونَ لَهُ فَيُفْتَحُ لَهُمْ فَيُشَيِّعُهُ مِنْ كُلِّ سَمَاءٍ مُقَرَّبُوهَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الَّتِي تَلِيهَا حَتَّى يُنْتَهَى بِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ السَّابِعَةِ فَيَقُولُ اللهُ ﷻ اكْتُبُوا كِتَابَ عَبْدِي فِي عِلِّيِّينَ وَأَعِيدُوهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَإِنِّي مِنْهَا خَلَقْتُهُمْ وَفِيهَا أُعِيدُهُمْ وَمِنْهَا أُخْرِجُهُمْ تَارَةً أُخْرَى
قَالَ فَتُعَادُ رُوحُهُ فِي جَسَدِهِ فَيَأْتِيهِ مَلَكَانِ فَيُجْلِسَانِهِ فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ مَنْ رَبُّكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّيَ اللهُ فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ مَا دِينُكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ دِينِيَ الْإِسْلَامُ فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ مَا هَذَا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي بُعِثَ فِيكُمْ؟ فَيَقُولُ هُوَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ وَمَا عِلْمُكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ قَرَأْتُ كِتَابَ اللهِ فَآمَنْتُ بِهِ وَصَدَّقْتُ فَيُنَادِي مُنَادٍ فِي السَّمَاءِ أَنْ صَدَقَ عَبْدِي فَأَفْرِشُوهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَأَلْبِسُوهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَافْتَحُوا لَهُ بَابًا إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ فَيَأْتِيهِ مِنْ رَوْحِهَا وَطِيبِهَا وَيُفْسَحُ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ مَدَّ بَصَرِهِ
قَالَ وَيَأْتِيهِ رَجُلٌ حَسَنُ الْوَجْهِ حَسَنُ الثِّيَابِ طَيِّبُ الرِّيحِ فَيَقُولُ أَبْشِرْ بِالَّذِي يَسُرُّكَ هَذَا يَوْمُكَ الَّذِي كُنْتَ تُوعَدُ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ فَوَجْهُكَ الْوَجْهُ يَجِيءُ بِالْخَيْرِ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا عَمَلُكَ الصَّالِحُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّ أَقِمِ السَّاعَةَ حَتَّى أَرْجِعَ إِلَى أَهْلِي وَمَالِي
قَالَ وَإِنَّ الْعَبْدَ الْكَافِرَ إِذَا كَانَ فِي انْقِطَاعٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَإِقْبَالٍ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ نَزَلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَلَائِكَةٌ سُودُ الْوُجُوهِ مَعَهُمُ الْمُسُوحُ فَيَجْلِسُونَ مِنْهُ مَدَّ الْبَصَرِ ثُمَّ يَجِيءُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ حَتَّى يَجْلِسَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ فَيَقُولُ أَيَّتُهَا النَّفْسُ الْخَبِيثَةُ اخْرُجِي إِلَى سَخَطٍ مِنَ اللهِ وَغَضَبٍ قَالَ فَتُفَرَّقُ فِي جَسَدِهِ فَيَنْتَزِعُهَا كَمَا يُنْتَزَعُ السَّفُّودُ مِنَ الصُّوفِ الْمَبْلُولِ فَيَأْخُذُهَا فَإِذَا أَخَذَهَا لَمْ يَدَعُوهَا فِي يَدِهِ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ حَتَّى يَجْعَلُوهَا فِي تِلْكَ الْمُسُوحِ وَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا كَأَنْتَنِ رِيحِ جِيفَةٍ وُجِدَتْ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ
فَيَصْعَدُونَ بِهَا فَلَا يَمُرُّونَ بِهَا عَلَى مَلَأٍ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ إِلَّا قَالُوا مَا هَذَا الرُّوحُ الْخَبِيثُ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ فُلَانُ بْنُ فُلَانٍ بِأَقْبَحِ أَسْمَائِهِ الَّتِي كَانَ يُسَمَّى بِهَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يُنْتَهَى بِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَيُسْتَفْتَحُ لَهُ فَلَا يُفْتَحُ لَهُ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ {لَا تُفَتَّحُ لَهُمْ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ وَلَا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ} [الأعراف 40] فَيَقُولُ اللهُ ﷻ اكْتُبُوا كِتَابَهُ فِي سِجِّينٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ السُّفْلَى فَتُطْرَحُ رُوحُهُ طَرْحًا ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {وَمَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللهِ فَكَأَنَّمَا خَرَّ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ فَتَخْطَفُهُ الطَّيْرُ أَوْ تَهْوِي بِهِ الرِّيحُ فِي مَكَانٍ سَحِيقٍ} [الحج 31]
فَتُعَادُ رُوحُهُ فِي جَسَدِهِ وَيَأْتِيهِ مَلَكَانِ فَيُجْلِسَانِهِ فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ مَنْ رَبُّكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ هَاهْ هَاهْ لَا أَدْرِي فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ مَا دِينُكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ هَاهْ هَاهْ لَا أَدْرِي فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ مَا هَذَا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي بُعِثَ فِيكُمْ؟ فَيَقُولُ هَاهْ هَاهْ لَا أَدْرِي فَيُنَادِي مُنَادٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ أَنْ كَذَبَ فَافْرِشُوا لَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ وَافْتَحُوا لَهُ بَابًا إِلَى النَّارِ فَيَأْتِيهِ مِنْ حَرِّهَا وَسَمُومِهَا وَيُضَيَّقُ عَلَيْهِ قَبْرُهُ حَتَّى تَخْتَلِفَ فِيهِ أَضْلَاعُهُ
وَيَأْتِيهِ رَجُلٌ قَبِيحُ الْوَجْهِ قَبِيحُ الثِّيَابِ مُنْتِنُ الرِّيحِ فَيَقُولُ أَبْشِرْ بِالَّذِي يَسُوءُكَ هَذَا يَوْمُكَ الَّذِي كُنْتَ تُوعَدُ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ فَوَجْهُكَ الْوَجْهُ يَجِيءُ بِالشَّرِّ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا عَمَلُكَ الْخَبِيثُ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّ لَا تُقِمِ السَّاعَةَ
[Machine] "We accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the funeral procession of a man from the Ansar. When we reached the grave and before it was covered, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down and we sat with him. He mentioned something similar and said, 'She (referring to the grave) tears it apart, along with the veins and nerves.' My father said the same, and so did Zaidah."
خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي جِنَازَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَانْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ وَلَمَّا يُلْحَدْ قَالَ فَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَجَلَسْنَا مَعَهُ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ وَقَالَ فَيَنْتَزِعُهَا تَتَقَطَّعُ مَعَهَا الْعُرُوقُ وَالْعَصَبُ قَالَ أَبِي وَكَذَا قَالَ زَائِدَةُ
[Machine] We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a funeral of a man from the Ansar (the helpers). He mentioned to us the virtues of the deceased, except that he mentioned a handsome man with good clothing and a beautiful face. And he mentioned about the disbeliever a man who had an ugly face and ugly clothing.
الْبَرَاءُ خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي جِنَازَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَتَمَثَّلَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ حَسَنُ الثِّيَابِ حَسَنُ الْوَجْهِ وَقَالَ فِي الْكَافِرِ وَتَمَثَّلَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ قَبِيحُالْوَجْهِ قَبِيحُ الثِّيَابِ
[Machine] On the authority of Abu 'A'idh Saif Al-Sa'idi, he praised Yazid ibn Al-Bara' ibn 'Aazib and said good words about him. He was an emir in Oman, and he was the best of the leaders. He said, "My father said, gather together so that I can show you how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to perform ablution and how he used to pray. I do not know the significance of my companionship with you." He then gathered his children and family and called for water for ablution. He gargled, rinsed his mouth, spat, washed his face three times, washed his right hand three times, washed his left hand three times, wiped his head and ears both externally and internally, washed his right foot three times, and washed his left foot three times. He said, "This is how I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ perform ablution." Then he entered his house and prayed a prayer that we did not know what it was. Then he came out and commanded for the prayer to be established, and the noon prayer was performed with us. I think I heard verses from him recite it from Surah Yaseen (Chapter 36). Then he prayed the afternoon prayer, then he prayed the Maghrib prayer with us, and then he prayed the Isha prayer with us. He said, "I wish that I can show you how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to perform ablution and how he used to pray."
عَنْ أَبِي عَائِذٍ سَيْفٍ السَّعْدِيِّ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ وَكَانَ أَمِيرًا بِعُمَانَ وَكَانَ كَخَيْرِ الْأُمَرَاءِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبِي اجْتَمِعُوا فَلَأُرِيَكُمْ كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَوَضَّأُ وَكَيْفَ كَانَ يُصَلِّي فَإِنِّي لَا أَدْرِي مَا قَدْرُ صُحْبَتِي إِيَّاكُمْ قَالَ فَجَمَعَ بَنِيهِ وَأَهْلَهُ وَدَعَا بِوَضُوءٍ فَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْثَرَ وَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلَاثًا وَغَسَلَ الْيَدَ الْيُمْنَى ثَلَاثًا وَغَسَلَ يَدَهُ هَذِهِ ثَلَاثًا يَعْنِي الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ وَأُذُنَيْهِ ظَاهِرَهُمَا وَبَاطِنَهُمَا وَغَسَلَ هَذِهِ الرِّجْلَ يَعْنِي الْيُمْنَى ثَلَاثًا وَغَسَلَ هَذِهِ الرِّجْلَثَلَاثًا يَعْنِي الْيُسْرَى قَالَ هَكَذَا مَا أَلَوْتُ أَنْ أُرِيَكُمْ كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَوَضَّأُ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ فَصَلَّى صَلَاةً لَا نَدْرِي مَا هِيَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَأَمَرَ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَأُقِيمَتْ فَصَلَّى بِنَا الظُّهْرَ فَأَحْسِبُ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ مِنْهُ آيَاتٍ مِنْ يس ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْعَصْرَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِنَا الْمَغْرِبَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بِنَا الْعِشَاءَ وَقَالَ مَا أَلَوْتُ أَنْ أُرِيَكُمْ كَيْفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَوَضَّأُ وَكَيْفَ كَانَ يُصَلِّي
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about performing ablution after eating the flesh of the camel. He replied: Perform ablution, after eating it. He was asked about performing ablution after eating meat. He replied: Do not perform ablution after eating it. He was asked about saying prayer in places where the camels lie down. He replied: Do not offer prayer in places where the camels lie down. These are the places of Satan. He was asked about saying prayer in the sheepfolds. He replied: You may offer prayer in such places; these are the places of blessing. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 184)
سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْوُضُوءِ مِنْ لُحُومِ إِبِلٍ فَقَالَ تَوَضَّئُوا مِنْهَا قَالَ وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ فِي مَبَارِكِ الْإِبِلِ فَقَالَ لَا تُصَلُّوا فِيهَا فَإِنَّهَا مِنَالشَّيَاطِينِ وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ فِي مَرَابِضِ الْغَنَمِ فَقَالَ صَلُّوا فِيهَا فَإِنَّهَا بَرَكَةٌ
