[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  

'Abdur-Rahman bin Zaid bin Al-Khattab addressed the people on the day concerning which there was doubt (as to whether the month had begun) and said: "I sat with the Companions of the Messenger of Allah and asked them, and they a narrated that the Messenger of Allah said: 'Fast when you see it and stop fasting when you see it, and perform the rites on that basis. If it is obscured, then complete thirty days, and if two witnesses testify then fast and stop fasting." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2116)   

أَلَا إِنِّي قَدْ جَالَسْتُ أَصْحَابَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَسَأَلْتُهُمْ أَلَا وَإِنَّهُمْ حَدَّثُونِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ صُومُوا لِرُؤْيَتِهِ وَأَفْطِرُوا لِرُؤْيَتِهِ وَأَنْسِكُوا لَهَا فَإِنْ غُمَّ عَلَيْكُمْفَأَتِمُّوا ثَلَاثِينَ وَإِنْ شَهِدَ شَاهِدَانِ مُسْلِمَانِ فَصُومُوا وَأَفْطِرُوا  

[Machine] I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ which night is the most rewarding, and Sufyan replied, "I heard him say, 'The last third of the night.' And whoever frees a slave, Allah will free every limb of his from the Fire of Hell.'"  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّ اللَّيْلِ أَجْوَبُ؟ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً أَسْمَعُ قَالَ جَوْفُ اللَّيْلِ الْآخِرِ وَمَنْ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً أَعْتَقَ اللهُ بِكُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهَا عُضْوًا مِنْهُ مِنَ النَّارِ  

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, which part of the night is most virtuous?" He said, "The last third of the night." I said, "Then which prayer is the most beloved to Allah?" He said, "The prayer offered during the last part of the night, except if it occurs after the pre-dawn prayer (Fajr)." I said, "No prayer after pre-dawn prayer?" He replied, "No, except if you are offering voluntary prayers." Then he said, "Indeed, when you wash your face, sins fall from your face. And when you wash your hands, sins fall from your hands. And when you wash your feet, sins fall from your feet."  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ اللَّيْلِ أَسْمَعُ؟ قَالَ جَوْفُ اللَّيْلِ الْآخِرِ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةُ مَقْبُولَةٌ حَتَّى يُصَلَّى الْفَجْرُ ثُمَّ لَا صَلَاةَ حَتَّى تَكُونَ الشَّمْسُ قِيدَ رُمْحٍ أَوْ رُمْحَيْنِ ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةُ مَقْبُولَةٌ حَتَّى يَقُومَ الظِّلُّ قِيَامَ الرُّمْحِ ثُمَّ لَا صَلَاةَ حَتَّى تَزُولَ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةُ مَقْبُولَةٌ حَتَّى تَكُونَ الشَّمْسُ قِيدَ رُمْحٍ أَوْ رُمْحَيْنِ ثُمَّ لَا صَلَاةَ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ قَالَ إِذَا غَسَلْتَ وَجْهَكَ خَرَجَتْ خَطَايَاكَ مِنْ وَجْهِكَ وَإِذَاغَسَلْتَ يَدَيْكَ خَرَجَتْ خَطَايَاكَ مِنْ يَدَيْكَ وَإِذَا غَسَلْتَ رِجْلَيْكَ خَرَجَتْ خَطَايَاكَ مِنْ رِجْلَيْكَ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered the morning prayer. When he finished it, he stood up and said three times: False witness has been made equivalent to attributing a partner to Allah. He then recited: "So avoid the abomination of idols and avoid speaking falsehood as people pure of faith to Allah, not associating anything with Him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3599)   

صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَامَ قَائِمًا فَقَالَ عَدَلَتْ شَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ الْإِشْرَاكَ بِاللهِ ﷻ ثُمَّ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِ حُنَفَاءَ لِلَّهِ غَيْرَ مُشْرِكِينَ بِهِ} [الحج 31]  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If it were not for two things in you, I would have been you." He said, "If it was one, it would be enough for me." He said, "You pour out your garment and provide your hair." He said, "No doubt, by Allah, I will not do that."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْلَا أَنْ فِيكَ اثْنَتَيْنِ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ قَالَ إِنْ وَاحِدَةً تَكْفِينِي قَالَ تُسْبِلُ إِزَارَكَ وَتُوَفِّرُ شَعْرَكَ قَالَ لَا جَرَمَ وَاللهِ لَا أَفْعَلُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Actions are six, and people are four. Two acts will lead to a specific result, an equal act will be rewarded in kind, a good act will be rewarded tenfold, and a good act will be rewarded seven hundred times. As for the two acts that will lead to a specific result, whoever dies without associating anything with Allah will enter Paradise, and whoever dies associating anything with Allah will enter Hellfire. As for the equal act that will be rewarded in kind, whoever intends to do a good act until it is felt in their heart, and Allah knows it, a good deed will be recorded for them. Whoever does a bad deed, a bad deed will be recorded for them. Whoever does a good deed, they will be rewarded tenfold. Whoever spends in the cause of Allah, a good deed will be rewarded seven hundred times. As for people, they are expanded for in this worldly life, and limited for in the Afterlife. They are limited for in this worldly life, and expanded for in the Afterlife. They are limited for in this worldly life and the Afterlife, and expanded for in this worldly life and the Afterlife."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْأَعْمَالُسِتَّةٌ وَالنَّاسُ أَرْبَعَةٌ فَمُوجِبَتَانِ وَمِثْلٌ بِمِثْلٍ وَحَسَنَةٌ بِعَشْرِ أَمْثَالِهَا وَحَسَنَةٌ بِسَبْعِ مِائَةٍ فَأَمَّا الْمُوجِبَتَانِ فَمَنْ مَاتَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَنْ مَاتَ يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ النَّارَ وَأَمَّا مِثْلٌ بِمِثْلٍ فَمَنْ هَمَّ بِحَسَنَةٍ حَتَّى يَشْعُرَهَا قَلْبُهُ وَيَعْلَمَهَا اللهُ مِنْهُ كُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةً وَمَنْ عَمِلَ سَيِّئَةً كُتِبَتْ عَلَيْهِ سَيِّئَةً وَمَنْ عَمِلَ حَسَنَةً فَبِعَشْرِ أَمْثَالِهَا وَمَنْ أَنْفَقَ نَفَقَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَحَسَنَةٌ بِسَبْعِ مِائَةٍ وَأَمَّا النَّاسُ فَمُوَسَّعٌ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا مَقْتُورٌ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَمَقْتُورٌ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا مُوَسَّعٌ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَمَقْتُورٌ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَمُوَسَّعٌ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ  

[Machine] "You are truly a blessed man, O Khuraym, were it not for two things in you." I asked, "And what are they, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Your letting down your lower garment and your growing out your hair."  

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نِعْمَ الرَّجُلُ أَنْتَ يَا خُرَيْمُ لَوْلَا خَلَّتَانِ فِيكَ قُلْتُ وَمَا هُمَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ إِسْبَالُكَ إِزَارَكَ وَإِرْخَاؤُكَ شَعْرَكَ  

"O you people False witness is tantamount to Shirk with Allah" Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺrecited: So shun the Rijs of the idols, and shun false speech. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2299)   

قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَطِيبًا فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ عَدَلَتْ شَهَادَةُ الزُّورِ إِشْرَاكًا بِاللهِ ﷻ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ {اجْتَنِبُوا الرِّجْسَ مِنَ الْأَوْثَانِ وَاجْتَنِبُوا قَوْلَ الزُّورِ}  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reciting in the dawn prayer and the date palms were flourishing.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْفَجْرِ وَالنَّخْلَ بَاسِقَاتٍ  

A man reported from Bakr bin Wa’il on the authority of his maternal uncle as saying, I said “Apostle of Allaah ﷺ may I levy tithe on my people.?” He replied “Tithes are to be levied on Jews and Christians.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3048)   

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أُعْشِرُ قَوْمِي؟ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا الْعُشُورُ عَلَى الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى وَلَيْسَ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ عُشُورٌ  

[Machine] "And Abu Muawiyah Bilqah said to the Prophet ﷺ, 'I brought it to him and he ordered me to peel it. Then he said, 'Leave it for the one who calls for milk.' Abu Muawiyah said, 'Do not burden her.'"  

وَقَالَ أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ بِلَقْحَةٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهَا فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَحْلُبَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ دَعْ دَاعِيَ اللَّبَنِ قَالَ أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ لَا تُجْهِدَنَّهَا  

[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was seeking strength, and I was with him in a group of Muslims, he called Bilal for prayer and said, 'Tell someone to lead the people in prayer.' So, I went out and found Umar among the people, while Abu Bakr was absent. The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Stand up, O Umar, and lead the people in prayer.' He stood up and when Umar began to say the takbir (saying Allahu Akbar to commence the prayer), the Prophet ﷺ heard his voice. Umar was a tall man with a loud voice. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Where is Abu Bakr? May Allah not allow this without the presence of Abu Bakr and the Muslims.' He sent for Abu Bakr and he came after Umar had performed the prayer and he led the people in prayer. Abdullah ibn Zam'a said, 'Umar said to me, 'Woe to you, Ibn Zam'a! What have you done to me? By Allah, I did not think when you ordered me, except that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered you to do so. If it were not for that, I would not have prayed with the people.' I said, 'By Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not order me. However, when I did not see Abu Bakr, I thought you were more deserving of leading the prayer among those present.'"  

لَمَّا اسْتُعِزَّ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا عِنْدَهُ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ قَالَ دَعَا بِلَالٌ لِلصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ مُرُوا مَنْ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ فَإِذَا عُمَرُ فِي النَّاسِ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ غَائِبًا فَقَالَ قُمْ يَا عُمَرُ فَصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ قَالَ فَقَامَ فَلَمَّا كَبَّرَ عُمَرُ سَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَوْتَهُ وَكَانَ عُمَرُ رَجُلًا مُجْهِرًا قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَيْنَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ؟ يَأْبَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ يَأْبَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ قَالَ فَبَعَثَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَجَاءَ بَعْدَ أَنْ صَلَّى عُمَرُ تِلْكَ الصَّلَاةَ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ قَالَ وَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زَمْعَةَ قَالَ لِي عُمَرُ وَيْحَكَ مَاذَا صَنَعْتَ بِي يَا ابْنَ زَمْعَةَ وَاللهِ مَا ظَنَنْتُ حِينَ أَمَرْتَنِي إِلَّا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَكَ بِذَلِكَ وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ مَا صَلَّيْتُ بِالنَّاسِ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَاللهِ مَا أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَكِنْ حِينَ لَمْ أَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ رَأَيْتُكَ أَحَقَّ مَنْ حَضَرَ بِالصَّلَاةِ  

[Machine] He (upon him be peace) said: "Then let him teach me in the darkness." He (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "So he met him and praised Allah and praised him and said: 'As for the truth, by Allah, there is no lineage, cause, or son-in-law that is dearer to me than your cause, your son-in-law, and your daughter. However, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Fatimah is a part of me, whatever hurts her, hurts me, and whatever pleases her, pleases me. Verily, lineages will be cut off on the Day of Resurrection, except for my lineage, my cause, my son-in-law, and by you is her daughter. If I were to marry her to you, that would be it'." So he went away satisfied.  

لَهُ قُلْ لَهُ فَلْيَلْقَنِي فِي الْعَتَمَةِ قَالَ فَلَقِيَهُ فَحَمِدَ الْمِسْوَرُ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ وَاللهِ مَا مِنْ نَسَبٍ وَلَا سَبَبٍ وَلَا صِهْرٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ سَبَبِكُمْ وَصِهْرِكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَاطِمَةُ مُضْغَةٌ مِنِّي يَقْبِضُنِي مَا قَبَضَهَا وَيَبْسُطُنِي مَا بَسَطَهَا وَإِنَّ الْأَنْسَابَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ تَنْقَطِعُ غَيْرَ نَسَبِي وَسَبَبِي وَصِهْرِي وَعِنْدَكَ ابْنَتُهَا وَلَوْ زَوَّجْتُكَ لَقَبَضَهَا ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَانْطَلَقَعَاذِرًا لَهُ  

[Machine] A Jewish man passed by me while I was standing behind the Prophet ﷺ, and the Prophet ﷺ was performing ablution. The Jewish man said, "Raise or uncover his back." So I raised it for him. Then, the Prophet ﷺ splashed water on my face.  

مَرَّ بِي يَهُودِيٌّ وَأَنَا قَائِمٌ خَلْفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺوَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَتَوَضَّأُ قَالَ فَقَالَ ارْفَعْ أَوْ اكْشِفْ ثَوْبَهُ عَنْ ظَهْرِهِ قَالَ فَذَهَبْتُ بِهِ أَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ فَنَضَحَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي وَجْهِي مِنَ الْمَاءِ  

[Machine] Marwan and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama, one of them surpassed his friend, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out in the year of Hudaybiyyah with around ten hundred of his companions. When he reached Dhu Al-Hulayfah, he performed the rituals of Hajj and shaved his head, and then he sent a spring of water ahead of him, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ continued until he arrived.  

عَنْ مَرْوَانَ وَالْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ يَزِيدُ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَامَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فِي بِضْعَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَ بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ قَلَّدَ الْهَدْيَ وَأَشْعَرَ وَأَحْرَمَ مِنْهَا وَبَعَثَ عَيْنًا لَهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَسَار رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا  

I never remained behind Messenger of Allah ﷺ from any expedition which he undertook except the Battle of Tabuk and that of the Battle of Badr. So far as the Battle of Badr is concerned, nobody was blamed for remaining behind as Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Muslims (did not set out for attack but for waylaying) the caravan of the Quraish, but it was Allah Who made them confront their enemies without their intention (to do so). I had the honour to be with Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the night of 'Aqaba when we pledged our allegiance to Islam and it was more dear to me than my participation in the Battle of Badr, although Badr was more popular amongst people as compared with that (Tabuk). And this is my story of remaining back from Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the occasion of the Battle of Tabuk. Never did I possess means enough and (my circumstances) more favourable than at the occasion of this expedition. And, by Allah, I had never before this expedition simultaneously in my possession two rides. Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out for this expedition in extremely hot season; the journey was long and the land (which he and his army had to cover) was waterless and he had to confront a large army, so he informed the Muslims about the actual situation (they had to face), so that they should adequately equip themselves for this expedition, and he also told them the destination where he intended to go. And the Muslims who accompanied Messenger of Allah ﷺ at that time were large in numbers but there was no proper record of them. Ka'b (further) said: Few were the persons who wanted to absent themselves, and were under the impression that they could easily conceal themselves (and thus remain undetected) until revelations from Allah, the Exalted and Glorious (descended in connection with them). And Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out on an expedition when the fruits were ripe and their shadows had been lengthened. I had weakness for them and it was during this season that Messenger of Allah ﷺ made preparations and the Muslims too along with them. I also set out in the morning so that I should make preparations along with them but I came back and did nothing and said to myself: I have means enough (to make preparations) as soon as I like. And I went on doing this (postponing my preparations) until people were about to depart and it was in the morning that Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out and the Muslims too along with him, but I made no preparations. I went early in the morning and came back, but I made no decision. I continued to do so until they (the Muslims) hastened and covered a good deal of distance. I also made up my mind to march on and to meet them. Would that I had done that but perhaps it was not destined for me. After the departure of Messenger of Allah ﷺ as I went out amongst people, I was shocked to find that I did not find anyone like me but people who were labelled as hypocrites or the people whom Allah granted exemption because of their incapacity and Messenger of Allah ﷺ took no notice of me until he had reached Tabuk. (One day as he was sitting amongst the people in Tabuk) he said: What has happened to Ka'b b. Malik? A person from Banu' Salama said: Messenger of Allah, the (beauty) of his cloak and his appreciation of his sides have allured him and he was thus detained. Mua'dh b. Jabal said: Woe be upon that what you contend. Messenger of Allah, by Allah, we know nothing about him but good. Messenger of Allah ﷺ, however, kept quiet. It was during that time that he (the Holy Prophet) saw a person (dressed in all white (garment) shattering the illusion of eye (mirage). Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: May he be Abu Khaithama and, lo, it was Abu Khaithama al-Ansari and he was that person who contributed a sa' of dates and was scoffed at by the hypocrites. Ka'b b. Malik farther said: When this news reached me that Messenger of Allah ﷺ was on his way back from Tabuk I was greatly perturbed. I thought of fabricating false stories and asked myself how I would save myself from his anger on the following day. In this connection, I sought the help of every prudent man from amongst the members of my family and when it was said to me that Messenger of Allah ﷺ was about to arrive, all the false ideas banished (from my mind) and I came to the conclusion that nothing could save me but the telling of truth, so I decided to speak the truth and it was in the morning that Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived (in Medina). And it was his habit that as he came back from a journey he first went to the mosque and observed two Rak'ahs of nafl prayer (as a mark of gratitude) and then sat amongst people. And as he did that, those who had remained behind him began to put forward their excuses and take an oath before him and they were more than eighty persons. Messenger of Allah ﷺ accepted their excuses on the very face of them and accepted their allegiance and sought forgiveness for them and left their secret (intentions) to Allah, until I presented myself to him. I greeted him and he smiled and there was a tinge of anger in that. He (the Holy Prophet) then said to me: Come forward. I went forward until I sat in front of him. He said to me: What kept you back? Could you not afford to go in for a ride? I said: Messenger of Allah, by Allah, if I were to sit in the presence of anybody else from amongst the worldly people I would have definitely saved myself from his anger on one pretext (or the other) and I have also the knack to fall into argumentation, but, by Allah, I am fully aware of the fact that if I were to put forward before you a false excuse to please you Allah would definitely provoke your wrath upon me, and if I speak the truth you may be annoyed with me, but I hope that Allah would make its end well and, by Allah, there is no valid excuse for me. By Allah, I never possessed so good means, and I never had such favourable conditions for me as I had when I stayed behind you (failed to join the expedition). Thereupon, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: This man told the truth, so get up until Allah gives a decision in your case. I stood up and some people of Banu' Salama followed me in hot haste, and they said to me: By Allah, we do not know about you that you committed a sin prior to this. You, however, showed inability to put forward an excuse before Messenger of Allah ﷺ as those who stayed behind him have put forward excuses. It would have been enough for the forgiveness of your sin that Messenger of Allah ﷺ would have sought forgiveness for you. By Allah, they continued to incite me until I thought of going back to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and contradict myself. Then I said to them: Has anyone else also met the same fate? They said: Yes, two persons have met the same fate as has fallen to you and they have made the sane statement as you have made, and the same verdict has been delivered in their case as it has been delivered in your case. I said: Who are they? They said: Murara b. ar-Rabi'a 'Amiri and Hilal b. Umayya al-Waqafi. They made a mention of these two pious persons to me who had participated in the Battle of Badr and there was an example for me in them. I went away when they named these two persons. Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade the Nluslims to talk with three of us from amongst those (persons) who had stayed behind him. The people began to avoid us and their attitude towards us underwent a change and it seemed as if the whole atmosphere had turned (hostile) against us and it was in fact the same atmosphere ot which I was fully aware and in which I had lived (for a fairly long time). We spent fifty nights in this very state and my two friends confined themselves withen their houses and spent (most of the) time in weeping, but as I was young and strong amongst them I got (out of my house), participated in congregational prayers, moved about in the bazar; but none spoke to me. I came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ as he sat amongst (people) after the prayer, greeted him and asked myself whether his lips stirred in response to my greetings (or not). Then I observed prayer beside him and looked at him with stealing glances and when I attended to my prayer, he looked at me and when I cast a glance at him he turned away his eyes from me. And when the harsh treatment of the Muslims towards me extended to a (considerable) length of time, I walked until I climbed upon the wall of the garden of Abu Qatada, and he was my cousin, and I had the greatest love for him. I greeted him but, by Allah, he did not respond to my greetings. I said to him: Abu Qatada, I adjure you by Allah, arn't you well aware of the fact that I love Allah and His Messenger ﷺ the most. He kept quiet. I again repeated saying: I adjure you by Allah. arn't you well aware of the fact that I love Allah and His Messenger ﷺ the most. He kept quiet. I again adjured him, whereupon he said: Allah and the Messenger ﷺ are best aware of it. My eyes began to shed tears and I came back climbing down from the wall and as I was walking in the bazar of Medina a Nabatean from amongst the Nabateans of Syria, who had come to sell foodgrains in Medina, asked people to direct him to Ka'b b. Malik. People gave him the indication by pointing towards me. He came to me and delivered to me a letter of the King of Ghassan and as I was a scribe I read that letter and it was written like this:" Coming to my point, it has been conveyed to us that your friend (the Holy Prophet) is subjecting you to cruelty and Allah has not created you for a place where you are to be degraded and where you cannot find your right place, so you come to us that we should accord you honour. As I read that letter I said: This is also a calamity, so I burnt it in the oven. When out of the fifty days, forty days had passed and Messenger of Allah ﷺ received no revelation, there came the messenger of Messenger of Allah ﷺ to me and said: Verily, Messenger of Allah ﷺ has commanded you to remain separate from your wife. I said: Should I divorce her or what (else) should I do? He said: No, but only remain separate from her and don't have sexual contact with her. The same message was sent to my companions. So I said to my wife: You better go to your parents and stay there with them until Allah gives the decision in my case. The wife of Hilal b. Umayya came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, Hilal b. Umayya is a senile person, he has no servant. Do you disapprove of my serving him? He said: No, but don't go near him. She said: By Allah, he has no such instinct in him. By Allah, he spends his time in weeping from that day to this day. Some of the members of my family said to me: Were you to seek permission from Messenger of Allah ﷺ in regard to your wife as he has granted permission to the wife of Hilal b. Umayya to serve him. I said: I would not seek permission from Messenger of Allah ﷺ, for I cannot say what Allah's Apostle may say in response to seeking my permission. Moreover, I am a young man. It was in this state that I spent ten more nights and thus fifty nights had passed that (people) had observed boycott with us. It was on the morning of the fiftieth night that I observed my dawn prayer and was sitting on one of the roofs of our houses. And I was in fact sitting in that very state which Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, has described about us in these words:" Life had become hard for myself and the earth had compressed despite its vastness," that I heard the noise of an announcer from the peak of the hill of Sal' saying at the top of his voice: Ka'b b. Malik, there is glad tidings for you. I fell down in prostration and came to realise that there was (a message of) relief for me. Messenger of Allah ﷺ had informed the people of the acceptance of our repentance by Allah as he offered the dawn prayer. So the people went on to give us glad tidings and some of them went to my friends in order to give them the glad tidings and a person galloped his horse and came from the tribe of Aslam and his horse reached me more quickly than his voice. And when he came to me whose sound I heard, he gave me the glad tidings. I took off my clothes and clothed him with them because of his bringing good news to me and, by Allah, I possessed nothing else (in the form of clothes) than these two on that occasion, and I asked one to lend me two clothes and dressed myself in them. I came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and on my way I met groups of people who greeted me because of (the acceptance of) repentance and they said: Here is a greeting for you for your repentance being accepted by Allah. (I moved on) until I came to the mosque and Messenger of Allah ﷺ had been sitting there amongst persons. So Talha b. 'Ubaidullah got up and rushed towards me and he shook hands with me and greeted me and, by Allah, no person stood up (to greet me) from amongst the emigrants except he. Ka'b said that he never forgot (this good gesture of) Talha. Ka'b further said: I greeted Messenger of Allah ﷺ with Assalam-o-'Alaikam and his face was glistening because of delight, and he said: Let there be glad tidings and blessings for you, the like of which (you have neither found nor you will find, as you find today) since your mother gave your birth. I said: Messenger of Allah. is this acceptance of repentance from you or from Allah? He said: No, (it is not from ma), it is from Allah, and it was common with Messenger of Allah ﷺ that as he was happy his face brightened up and it looked like a part of the moon and it was from this that we recognised it (his delight). As I sat before him, I said: Messenger of Allah, am I allowed to give in charity my wealth for Allah's sake and for the sake of His Messenger ﷺ? Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Keep some property with you as it is better for you. I said: I shall keep with me that part (of my property) which fell to my lot (on the occasion of the expedition of) Khaibar. I said: Messenger of Allah, verily, Allah has granted me salvation because of truth and, therefore, (I think) that repentance implies that I should not speak anything but truth as long as I live. He said: By Allah, I do not know whether anyone amongst the Muslims was put to more severe trial than I by Allah because of telling the truth. And since I made a mention of this to Messenger of Allah ﷺ up to this day I have not told any lie and, by Allah, I have decided not to tell a lie and I hope that Allah would save me (from trials) for the rest of my life and Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed these verses:" Certainly, Allah has turned in Mercy to the Prophet and the emigrants and the helpers who followed him in the hour of hardship after the hearts of a part of them were about to deviate; then He turned to them in mercy. Surely, to them He is Compassionate, Merciful and (He turned in Mercy) to the three who were left behind until the earth despite its vastness became strait for them and their souls were also straitened to them." And this revelation reached up to the (words):" O you who believe, develop God consciousness, and be with the truthful" (ix. 117-118). Ka'b said: By Allah, since Allah directed me to Islam there has been no blessing more significant for me than this truth of mine which I spoke to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and if I were to tell a lie I would have been ruined as were ruined those who told lies, for in regard to those who told lies Allah used harshest words used for anyone as He descended revelation (and the words of Allah are):" They will swear by Allah to you when you return to them so that you may leave them alone. So leave them alone. Surely, they are unclean and their resort is Hell, recompense for what they earned. They will swear to you that you may be pleased with them but if you are pleased with them, yet surely Allah is not pleased with the transgressing people" (ix. 95-96). K'ab said that the matter of us three persons was deferred as compared with those who took an oath in the presence of Allahs Messenger ﷺ and he accepted their allegiance and sought forgiveness for them and Allah did not give any decision in regard to us. It was Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, Who gave decisions in our case, three who remained behind. (The words of the Qur'an)" the three who were left behind" do not mean that we remained back from Jihad but these imply that He kept our matter behind them who took oath and presented excuse before Him. This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Zuhri with the same chain of transmitters. (Using translation from Muslim 2769a)

أَوَلَيْسَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ أَوَلَسْنَا بِالْمُسْلِمِينَ؟ أَوَلَيْسُوا بِالْمُشْرِكِينَ؟ قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ فَعَلَامَ نُعْطِي الذِّلَّةَ فِي دِينِنَا فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَا عُمَرُ الْزَمْ غَرْزَهُ

[Machine] Ali proposed to the daughter of Abu Jahal and promised marriage. Fatimah went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "People are talking that you do not get angry about your daughters and that Ali has proposed to the daughter of Abu Jahal." The Prophet ﷺ then stood up, praised Allah, and spoke well of Ali. He said, "Fatimah is a part of me, and I do not want anyone to cause her harm." He mentioned Abu Al-Aas ibn Al-Rabi'ah and praised him extensively. He said, "The daughter of the Prophet of Allah should not be married to the daughter of the enemy of Allah." Ali refused that.  

أَنَّ عَلِيًّا خَطَبَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ فَوَعَدَ بِالنِّكَاحِ فَأَتَتْ فَاطِمَةُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ قَوْمَكَ يَتَحَدَّثُونَ أَنَّكَ لَا تَغْضَبُ لِبَنَاتِكَ وَأَنَّ عَلِيًّا قَدْ خَطَبَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ إِنَّمَا فَاطِمَةُ بَضْعَةٌ مِنِّي وَأَنَا أَكْرَهُ أَنْ تَفْتِنُوهَا وَذَكَرَ أَبَا الْعَاصِ بْنَ الرَّبِيعِ فَأَكْثَرَ عَلَيْهِ الثَّنَاءَ وَقَالَ لَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْنَ ابْنَةِ نَبِيِّ اللهِ وَبِنْتِ عَدُوِّ اللهِ فَرَفَضَ عَلِىٌّ ذَلِكَ  

'Ali bin Abu Talib proposed to the daughter of Abu Jahl, when he was married to Fatimah the daughter of the Prophet. When Fatimah heard of that she went to the Prophet, and said: "Your people are saying that you do not feel angry for your daughters. This 'Ali is going to marry the daughter of Abu Jahl." Miswar said: "The Prophet stood up, and I heard him when he bore witness (i.e., said the Shahadah), then he said: 'I married my daughter (Zainab) to Abul-As bin Rabi', and he spoke to me and was speaking the truth. Fatimah bint Muhammad is a part of me, and I hate to see her faced with troubles. By Allah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah and the daughter of the enemy of Allah will never be joined together in marriage to one man." He said: So, 'Ali abandoned the marriage proposal. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1999)  

أَخَبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ خَطَبَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ وَعِنْدَهُ فَاطِمَةُ ابْنَةُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ بِذَلِكَ فَاطِمَةُ أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ لَهُ إِنَّ قَوْمَكَ يَتَحَدَّثُونَ أَنَّكَ لَا تَغْضَبُ لِبَنَاتِكَ وَهَذَا عَلِيٌّ نَاكِحٌ ابْنَةَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ قَالَ الْمِسْوَرُ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَسَمِعْتُهُ حِينَ تَشَهَّدَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنِّي أَنْكَحْتُ أَبَا الْعَاصِ بْنَ الرَّبِيعِ فَحَدَّثَنِي فَصَدَقَنِي وَإِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ مُحَمَّدٍبَضْعَةٌ مِنِّي وَأَنَا أَكْرَهُ أَنْ تَفْتِنُوهَا وَإِنَّهَا وَاللهِ لَا تَجْتَمِعُ ابْنَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ وَابْنَةُ عَدُوِّ اللهِ عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ أَبَدًا قَالَ فَتَرَكَ عَلِيٌّ الْخِطْبَةَ  

‘Ali bin al-Hussain said that when they returned to Madeenah from Yazid bin Mu’awiyah the place of massacre of Al Hussain bin Ali(may Allaah be pleased with him) Al Miswar bin Makhramah met them and said “tell me if you have any need for me. I said to him “No”. He then said Will you not give me the sword of the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ? I fear the people may not take it from you by force. (He said) By Allaah if you give it to me no one can take it from me so long as I am alive. Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allaah be pleased with him) asked for the hand of Abu Jahl’s daughter in marriage after the marriage with Fathima. I heard the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ say while he was addressing the people about this matter on the pulpit and I was mature in those days. Fathima is from me and I am not afraid that she will be tried in respect of her religion. He then mentioned his other son-in-law who belonged to Banu ‘Abd Shams. He admired him immensely for his relationship with him and extolled him well. He said “He talked to me and talked truly and he made promise with me and fulfilled it. I do not make lawful what Is unlawful and unlawful what is lawful. But, by Allaah the daughter of the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ and the daughter of the enemy of Allaah can never be combined together. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2069)  

هَلْ لَكَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ حَاجَةٍ تَأْمُرُنِي بِهَا؟ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ لَا قَالَ لَهُ هَلْ أَنْتَ مُعْطِيَّ سَيْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَغْلِبَكَ الْقَوْمُ عَلَيْهِ وَايْمُ اللهِ لَئِنْ أَعْطَيْتَنِيهِ لَا يُخْلَصُ إِلَيْهِ أَبَدًا حَتَّى تَبْلُغَ نَفْسِي إِنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ خَطَبَ ابْنَةَ أَبِي جَهْلٍعَلَى فَاطِمَةَ فَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ فِي ذَلِكَ عَلَى مِنْبَرِهِ هَذَا وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ مُحْتَلِمٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بَضْعَةٌ مِنِّي وَأَنَا أَتَخَوَّفُ أَنْ تُفْتَنَ فِي دِينِهَا قَالَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ صِهْرًا لَهُ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ فَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ فِي مُصَاهَرَتِهِ إِيَّاهُ فَأَحْسَنَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي فَصَدَقَنِي وَوَعَدَنِي فَوَفَى لِي وَإِنِّي لَسْتُ أُحَرِّمُ حَلَالًا وَلَا أُحِلُّ حَرَامًا وَلَكِنْ وَاللهِ لَا تَجْتَمِعُ ابْنَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَابْنَةُ عَدُوِّ اللهِ مَكَانًا وَاحِدًا أَبَدًا  

When the delegates of the tribe of Hawazin after embracing Islam, came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he got up. They appealed to him to return their properties and their captives. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "The most beloved statement to me is the true one. So, you have the option of restoring your properties or your captives, for I have delayed distributing them." The narrator added, Messenger of Allah ﷺ c had been waiting for them for more than ten days on his return from Taif. When they realized that Allah's Apostle would return to them only one of two things, they said, "We choose our captives." So, Allah's Apostle got up in the gathering of the Muslims, praised Allah as He deserved, and said, "Then after! These brethren of yours have come to you with repentance and I see it proper to return their captives to them. So, whoever amongst you likes to do that as a favor, then he can do it, and whoever of you wants to stick to his share till we pay him from the very first booty which Allah will give us then he can do so." The people replied, "We agree to give up our shares willingly as a favor for Allah's Apostle." Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "We don't know who amongst you has agreed and who hasn't. Go back and your chiefs may tell us your opinion." So, all of them returned and their chiefs discussed the matter with them and then they (i.e. their chiefs) came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ to tell him that they (i.e. the people) had given up their shares gladly and willingly. (Using translation from Bukhārī 2307)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَامَ حِينَ جَاءَهُ وَفْدُ هَوَازِنَ مُسْلِمِينَ فَسَأَلُوا أَنْ يَرُدَّ إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَالَهُمْ وَسَبْيَهُمْ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَعِي مَنْ تَرَوْنَ وَأَحَبُّ الْحَدِيثِ إِلَيَّ أَصْدَقُهُ فَاخْتَارُوا إِحْدَى الطَّائِفَتَيْنِ إِمَّا السَّبْيُ وَإِمَّا الْمَالُ وَقَدْ كُنْتُ اسْتَأْنَيْتُ بِكُمْ وَكَانَ أَنْظَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِضْعَ عَشْرَةَ لَيْلَةً حِينَ قَفَلَ مِنَ الطَّائِفِ فَلَمَّا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ غَيْرُ رَادٍّ إِلَيْهِمْ إِلَّا إِحْدَى الطَّائِفَتَيْنِ قَالُوا فَإِنَّا نَخْتَارُ سَبْيَنَا فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَأَثْنَى عَلَى اللهِ ﷻ بِمَا هُوَ أَهْلُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنَّ إِخْوَانَكُمْ قَدْ جَاءُوا تَائِبِينَ وَإِنِّي قَدْ رَأَيْتُ أَنْ أَرُدَّ إِلَيْهِمْ سَبْيَهُمْ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يُطَيِّبَ ذَلِكَ فَلْيَفْعَلْ وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَلَى حَظِّهِ حَتَّى نُعْطِيَهُ إِيَّاهُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ مَا يُفِيءُ اللهُ ﷻ عَلَيْنَا فَلْيَفْعَلْ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ قَدْ طَيَّبْنَا ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّا لَا نَدْرِي مَنْ أَذِنَ مِنْكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ مِمَّنْ لَمْ يَأْذَنْ فَارْجِعُوا حَتَّى يَرْفَعَ إِلَيْنَا عُرَفَاؤُكُمْ أَمْرَكُمْ فَجَمَعَ النَّاسُ فَكَلَّمَهُمْ عُرَفَاؤُهُمْ ثُمَّ رَجَعُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ أَنَّهُمْ قَدْ طَيَّبُوا وَأَذِنُوا هَذَا الَّذِي بَلَغَنِي عَنْ سَبْيِ هَوَازِنَ  

[Machine] He informed him that 'Amr ibn 'Awf al-Ansari, who was an ally of Banu 'Amir ibn Lu'ay, and had participated in the Battle of Badr with the Prophet ﷺ , informed him that the Prophet ﷺ sent Abu 'Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah to Bahrain to collect its tax. The Prophet ﷺ was kind to the people of Bahrain and appointed Al-Ala' ibn Al-Hadrami as their leader. Abu 'Ubaidah arrived with wealth from Bahrain and narrated the hadith, meaning a similar hadith to that of Ma'mar.  

أخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَمْرَو ابْنَ عَوْفٍ الْأنْصَارِيَّ وَهُوَ حَلِيفُ بَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ لُؤَيٍّ وَكَانَ قَدْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بَعَثَ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ بْنَ الْجَرَّاحِ إِلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ يَأْتِي بِجِزْيَتِهَا وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ صَالَحَ أَهْلَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ وَأَمَّرَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعَلَاءَ بْنَ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ فَقَدِمَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بِمَالٍ مِنَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ يَعْنِي مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ مَعْمَرٍ  

[Machine] Abu 'Ubaidah came with wealth from Bahrain, and the Prophet ﷺ had sent him to Bahrain. He coincided with the Messenger of Allah during the Fajr prayer. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ left, they presented themselves to him. When he saw them, he smiled and said, "Perhaps you have heard that Abu 'Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah has arrived along with wealth?" They said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Rejoice and hope for good. By Allah, poverty is not what I fear for you, but I fear that the world will be poured on you, and you will compete for it as those before you competed for it."  

أَنَّ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ قَدِمَ بِمَالٍ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْبَحْرَيْنِ وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَعَثَهُ عَلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ فَوَافَقَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ تَعَرَّضُوا فَلَمَّا رَآهُمْ تَبَسَّمَ وَقَالَ لَعَلَّكُمْ سَمِعْتُمْ أَنَّ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ بْنَ الْجَرَّاحِ قَدِمَ وَقَدِمَ بِمَالٍ؟ قَالُوا أَجَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبْشِرُوا وَأَمِّلُوا خَيْرًا فَوَاللهِ مَا الْفَقْرُ أَخْشَى عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَكِنْ إِذَا صُبَّتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا فَتَنَافَسْتُمُوهَا كَمَا تَنَافَسَهَا مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ  

[Machine] After the death of her husband, Subay'a al-Aslamiyah expressed her desire to remarry. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ told her, "You are allowed to remarry."  

أَنَّ سُبَيْعَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّةَ نُفِسَتْ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ زَوْجِهَا بِلَيَالٍ فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ حَلَلْتِ فَانْكِحِي  

[Machine] Her husband left her while she was pregnant, and she did not stay more than a few nights until she gave birth. When she finished her postnatal bleeding, she got engaged. She sought permission from the Prophet ﷺ for marriage, and he granted her permission to marry. So she got married.  

عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ فَلَمْ تَمْكُثْ إِلَّا لَيَالِيَ حَتَّى وَضَعَتْ فَلَمَّا تَعَلَّتْ مِنْ نِفَاسِهَا خُطِبَتْ فَاسْتَأْذَنَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي النِّكَاحِ فَأَذِنَ لَهَا أَنْ تَنْكِحَ فَنَكَحَتْ  

[Machine] Subay'a mentioned the conversation.  

وَضَعَتْ سُبَيْعَةُ فَذَكَرَالْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] On the authority of al-Miswar ibn Makramah and Marwan, they said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ appointed someone to lead the sacrificial animals, and he performed the Ihram (ritual consecration) with a garment made of Hilafah, and he performed Umrah (minor pilgrimage) with it. Then he shaved his head at Hudaybiyyah during his Umrah, and he commanded his companions to do the same. And he sacrificed the animals at Hudaybiyyah before shaving his head, and he commanded his companions to do the same."  

عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ وَمَرْوَانَ قَالَا قَلَّدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْهَدْيَ وَأَشْعَرَهُ بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ وَأَحْرَمَ مِنْهَا بِالْعُمْرَةِ وَحَلَقَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فِي عُمْرَتِهِ وَأَمَرَ أَصْحَابَهُ بِذَلِكَ وَنَحَرَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَحْلِقَ وَأَمَرَ أَصْحَابَهُ بِذَلِكَ  

[Machine] "In a transaction or charity given to her by Allah, Aisha said, 'By Allah, I will continue (to give it) or I will stone her.' Aisha said, 'Did he really say that?' They said, 'Yes.' She said, 'It is a vow I made to Allah that I will never speak to the son of Zubeir a word.' Abdullah bin Zubeir and Abdullah bin Asad bin Yaghooth, who are from the tribe of Zuhrah, interceded for her. They mentioned the hadith and asked Aisha for forgiveness. She accepted from them. They said to her, 'Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade what you have learned from migration. It is not permissible for a Muslim to abandon his brother for more than three nights.'"  

فِي بَيْعٍ أَوْ عَطَاءٍ أَعْطَتْهُ وَاللهِ لَتَنْتَهِيَنَّ عَائِشَةُ أَوَ لَأَحْجُرَنَّ عَلَيْهَا فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ أَوَقَالَ هَذَا قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَتْ هُوَ لِلَّهِ عَلَيَّ نَذْرٌ أَنْ لَا أُكَلِّمَ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ كَلِمَةً أَبَدًا فَاسْتَشْفَعَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ الْمِسْوَرَ بْنَ مَخْرَمَةَ وَعَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ وَهُمَا مِنْ بَنِي زُهْرَةَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَطَفِقَ الْمِسْوَرُ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ يُنَاشِدَانِ عَائِشَةَ إِلَّا كَلَّمَتْهُ وَقَبِلَتْ مِنْهُ وَيَقُولَانِ لَهَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ نَهَى عَمَّا قَدْ عَلِمْتِ مِنَ الْهَجْرِ إِنَّهُ لَا يَحِلُّ لِمُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يَهْجُرَ أَخَاهُ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثِ لَيَالٍ  

[Machine] About Tufail ibn al-Harith, who was a man from the Azd Shanu'ah tribe and he was the brother of Aisha from her mother's side, Umm Ruman. He mentioned the situation, so he sought the assistance of Miswar ibn Makhrama and Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Aswad ibn Abd Yaghuth. They sought permission from her, and she granted them permission. They both spoke to her, sought her help, and reminded her of Allah, kinship, and the saying of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that it is not permissible for a Muslim to abandon his brother for more than three (days).  

عَنِ الطُّفَيْلِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ وَكَانَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَزْدِ شَنُوءَةَ وَكَانَ أَخًا لِعَائِشَةَ لِأُمِّهَا أُمِّ رُومَانَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فَاسْتَعَانَ عَلَيْهَا بِالْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ فَاسْتَأْذَنَا عَلَيْهَا فَأَذِنَتْ لَهُمَا فَكَلَّمَاهَا وَنَاشَدَاهَا اللهَ وَالْقَرَابَةَ وَقَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ يَهْجُرَ أَخَاهُ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ  

[Machine] 'A'isha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, narrated to her mother that 'Awf ibn al-Harith ibn Tufayl, who is her cousin, informed her about the hadith.  

حَدَّثَنِي عَوْفُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ طُّفَيْلِ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَخِي عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لِأُمِّهَا أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ حَدَّثَتْهُ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] Marwan and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama were both companions of the Prophet. One of them surpassed his companion and joined the Prophet during the year of Hudaybiyyah along with hundreds of his companions. When they reached the area of Dhu al-Hulayfah, the Prophet performed the rites of Hajj, shaved his head, and put on the state of Ihram. Sufyan said that he performed Umrah at that time, but he did not mention Al-Miswar. He sent a message to him and Al-Miswar joined the Prophet until...  

عَنْ مَرْوَانَ وَالْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ يَزِيدُ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَامَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فِي بِضْعَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَ بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ قَلَّدَ الْهَدْيَ وَأَشْعَرَ وَأَحْرَمَ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً بِالْعُمْرَةِ وَلَمْ يُسَمِّ الْمِسْوَرَ وَبَعَثَ عَيْنًا لَهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَسَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا  

[Machine] He heard Marwan say during the season that the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , once rode on a donkey and he considered the camel superior to the donkey.  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مَرْوَانَ بِالْمَوْسِمِ يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَطَعَ فِي مِجَنٍّ وَالْبَعِيرُ أَفْضَلُ مِنَ الْمِجَنِّ  

"I heard the Messenger of Allah when he was on the pulpit, say: 'Banu Hisham bin Mughirah asked me for permission to marry their daughter to 'Ali bin Abu Talib, but I will not give them permission, and I will not give them permission, and I will not give them permission, unless 'Ali bin Abu Talib wants to divorce my daughter and marry their daughter, for she is a part of me, and what bothers her bothers me, and what upsets her upsets me." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1998)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَقُولُ إِنَّ بَنِي هِشَامِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ اسْتَأْذَنُونِي فِي أَنْ يُنْكِحُوا ابْنَتَهُمْ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَلَا آذَنُ لَهُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَا آذَنُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَا آذَنُ فَإِنَّمَا ابْنَتِي بَضْعَةٌ مِنِّي يُرِيبُنِي مَا أَرَابَهَا وَيُؤْذِينِي مَا آذَاهَا  

[Machine] Gifted to the Messenger ﷺ were embroidered garments made of gold, so he distributed them to his companions. Makhrama said, "O Miswar, come with us to the Messenger ﷺ, for it has been mentioned to me that he distributed the garments." So we proceeded, and when we arrived, Makhrama said, "Enter and invite him for me." I entered and invited him, and he came out to me wearing a piece of garment. He said, "I have kept this for you, O Makhrama." He looked at it and said, "I am pleased." So he gave it to him.  

أُهْدِيَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَقْبِيَةٌ مُزَرَّرَةٌ بِالذَّهَبِ فَقَسَمَهَا فِي أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ مَخْرَمَةُ يَا مِسْوَرُ اذْهَبْ بِنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ ذُكِرَ لِي أَنَّهُ قَسَمَ أَقْبِيَةً فَانْطَلَقْنَا فَقَالَ ادْخُلْ فَادْعُهُ لِي قَالَ فَدَخَلْتُ فَدَعَوْتُهُ إِلَيْهِ فَخَرَجَ إِلَيَّ وَعَلَيْهِ قَبَاءٌ مِنْهَا قَالَ خَبَأْتُ لَكَ هَذَا يَا مَخْرَمَةُ قَالَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَضِيَ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ  

(whose narrations attest each other) Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out at the time of Al-Hudaibiya (treaty), and when they proceeded for a distance, he said, "Khalid bin Al-Walid leading the cavalry of Quraish constituting the front of the army, is at a place called Al-Ghamim, so take the way on the right." By Allah, Khalid did not perceive the arrival of the Muslims till the dust arising from the march of the Muslim army reached him, and then he turned back hurriedly to inform Quraish. The Prophet ﷺ went on advancing till he reached the Thaniya (i.e. a mountainous way) through which one would go to them (i.e. people of Quraish). The she-camel of the Prophet ﷺ sat down. The people tried their best to cause the she-camel to get up but in vain, so they said, "Al-Qaswa' (i.e. the she-camel's name) has become stubborn! Al-Qaswa' has become stubborn!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Al-Qaswa' has not become stubborn, for stubbornness is not her habit, but she was stopped by Him Who stopped the elephant." Then he said, "By the Name of Him in Whose Hands my soul is, if they (i.e. the Quraish infidels) ask me anything which will respect the ordinances of Allah, I will grant it to them." The Prophet ﷺ then rebuked the she-camel and she got up. The Prophet ﷺ changed his way till he dismounted at the farthest end of Al-Hudaibiya at a pit (i.e. well) containing a little water which the people used in small amounts, and in a short while the people used up all its water and complained to Messenger of Allah ﷺ; of thirst. The Prophet ﷺ took an arrow out of his arrow-case and ordered them to put the arrow in that pit. By Allah, the water started and continued sprouting out till all the people quenched their thirst and returned with satisfaction. While they were still in that state, Budail bin Warqa-al- Khuzaʿi came with some persons from his tribe Khuzaʿa and they were the advisers of Messenger of Allah ﷺ who would keep no secret from him and were from the people of Tihama. Budail said, "I left Kaʿb bin Luai and 'Amir bin Luai residing at the profuse water of Al-Hudaibiya and they had milch camels (or their women and children) with them, and will wage war against you, and will prevent you from visiting the Kaʿba." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "We have not come to fight anyone, but to perform the ʿUmra. No doubt, the war has weakened Quraish and they have suffered great losses, so if they wish, I will conclude a truce with them, during which they should refrain from interfering between me and the people (i.e. the 'Arab infidels other than Quraish), and if I have victory over those infidels, Quraish will have the option to embrace Islam as the other people do, if they wish; they will at least get strong enough to fight. But if they do not accept the truce, by Allah in Whose Hands my life is, I will fight with them defending my Cause till I get killed, but (I am sure) Allah will definitely make His Cause victorious." Budail said, "I will inform them of what you have said." So, he set off till he reached Quraish and said, "We have come from that man (i.e. Muhammad) whom we heard saying something which we will disclose to you if you should like." Some of the fools among Quraish shouted that they were not in need of this information, but the wiser among them said, "Relate what you heard him saying." Budail said, "I heard him saying so-and-so," relating what the Prophet ﷺ had told him. ʿUrwa bin Masʿud got up and said, "O people! Aren't you the sons? They said, "Yes." He added, "Am I not the father?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Do you mistrust me?" They said, "No." He said, "Don't you know that I invited the people of ʿUkaz for your help, and when they refused I brought my relatives and children and those who obeyed me (to help you)?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Well, this man (i.e. the Prophet) has offered you a reasonable proposal, you'd better accept it and allow me to meet him." They said, "You may meet him." So, he went to the Prophet ﷺ and started talking to him. The Prophet ﷺ told him almost the same as he had told Budail. Then ʿUrwa said, "O Muhammad! Won't you feel any scruple in extirpating your relations? Have you ever heard of anyone amongst the Arabs extirpating his relatives before you? On the other hand, if the reverse should happen, (nobody will aid you, for) by Allah, I do not see (with you) dignified people, but people from various tribes who would run away leaving you alone." Hearing that, Abu Bakr abused him and said, "Do you say we would run and leave the Prophet ﷺ alone?" ʿUrwa said, "Who is that man?" They said, "He is Abu Bakr." ʿUrwa said to Abu Bakr, "By Him in Whose Hands my life is, were it not for the favor which you did to me and which I did not compensate, I would retort on you." ʿUrwa kept on talking to the Prophet ﷺ and seizing the Prophet's beard as he was talking while Al-Mughira bin Shuʿba was standing near the head of the Prophet, holding a sword and wearing a helmet. Whenever ʿUrwa stretched his hand towards the beard of the Prophet, Al-Mughira would hit his hand with the handle of the sword and say (to ʿUrwa), "Remove your hand from the beard of Messenger of Allah ﷺ." ʿUrwa raised his head and asked, "Who is that?" The people said, "He is Al-Mughira bin Shuʿba." ʿUrwa said, "O treacherous! Am I not doing my best to prevent evil consequences of your treachery?" Before embracing Islam Al-Mughira was in the company of some people. He killed them and took their property and came (to Medina) to embrace Islam. The Prophet ﷺ said (to him, "As regards your Islam, I accept it, but as for the property I do not take anything of it. (As it was taken through treason). ʿUrwa then started looking at the Companions of the Prophet. By Allah, whenever Messenger of Allah ﷺ spat, the spittle would fall in the hand of one of them (i.e. the Prophet's companions) who would rub it on his face and skin; if he ordered them they would carry his orders immediately; if he performed ablution, they would struggle to take the remaining water; and when they spoke to him, they would lower their voices and would not look at his face constantly out of respect. ʿUrwa returned to his people and said, "O people! By Allah, I have been to the kings and to Caesar, Khosrau and An- Najashi, yet I have never seen any of them respected by his courtiers as much as Muhammad is respected by his companions. By Allah, if he spat, the spittle would fall in the hand of one of them (i.e. the Prophet's companions) who would rub it on his face and skin; if he ordered them, they would carry out his order immediately; if he performed ablution, they would struggle to take the remaining water; and when they spoke, they would lower their voices and would not look at his face constantly out of respect." ʿUrwa added, "No doubt, he has presented to you a good reasonable offer, so please accept it." A man from the tribe of Bani Kinana said, "Allow me to go to him," and they allowed him, and when he approached the Prophet and his companions, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "He is so-and-so who belongs to the tribe that respects the Budn (i.e. camels of the sacrifice). So, bring the Budn in front of him." So, the Budn were brought before him and the people received him while they were reciting Talbiya. When he saw that scene, he said, "Glorified be Allah! It is not fair to prevent these people from visiting the Kaʿba." When he returned to his people, he said, 'I saw the Budn garlanded (with colored knotted ropes) and marked (with stabs on their backs). I do not think it is advisable to prevent them from visiting the Kaʿba." Another person called Mikraz bin Hafs got up and sought their permission to go to Muhammad, and they allowed him, too. When he approached the Muslims, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Here is Mikraz and he is a vicious man." Mikraz started talking to the Prophet and as he was talking, Suhail bin ʿAmr came. When Suhail bin ʿAmr came, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Now the matter has become easy." Suhail said to the Prophet "Please conclude a peace treaty with us." So, the Prophet ﷺ called the clerk and said to him, "Write: By the Name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful." Suhail said, "As for 'Beneficent,' by Allah, I do not know what it means. So write: By Your Name O Allah, as you used to write previously." The Muslims said, "By Allah, we will not write except: By the Name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Write: By Your Name O Allah." Then he dictated, "This is the peace treaty which Muhammad, Messenger of Allah ﷺ has concluded." Suhail said, "By Allah, if we knew that you are Messenger of Allah ﷺ we would not prevent you from visiting the Kaʿba, and would not fight with you. So, write: "Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "By Allah! I am Apostle of Allah even if you people do not believe me. Write: Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah." (Az-Zuhri said, "The Prophet ﷺ accepted all those things, as he had already said that he would accept everything they would demand if it respects the ordinance of Allah, (i.e. by letting him and his companions perform ʿUmra.)" The Prophet ﷺ said to Suhail, "On the condition that you allow us to visit the House (i.e. Kaʿba) so that we may perform Tawaf around it." Suhail said, "By Allah, we will not (allow you this year) so as not to give chance to the 'Arabs to say that we have yielded to you, but we will allow you next year." So, the Prophet ﷺ got that written. Then Suhail said, "We also stipulate that you should return to us whoever comes to you from us, even if he embraced your religion." The Muslims said, "Glorified be Allah! How will such a person be returned to the pagans after he has become a Muslim? While they were in this state Abu- Jandal bin Suhail bin ʿAmr came from the valley of Mecca staggering with his fetters and fell down amongst the Muslims. Suhail said, "O Muhammad! This is the very first term with which we make peace with you, i.e. you shall return Abu Jandal to me." The Prophet ﷺ said, "The peace treaty has not been written yet." Suhail said, "I will never allow you to keep him." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, do." He said, "I won't do.: Mikraz said, "We allow you (to keep him)." Abu Jandal said, "O Muslims! Will I be returned to the pagans though I have come as a Muslim? Don't you see how much I have suffered?" (continued...) (continuing... 1): -3.891:... ... Abu Jandal had been tortured severely for the Cause of Allah. ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab said, "I went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'Aren't you truly the Messenger of Allah?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Yes, indeed.' I said, 'Isn't our Cause just and the cause of the enemy unjust?' He said, 'Yes.' I said, 'Then why should we be humble in our religion?' He said, 'I am Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I do not disobey Him, and He will make me victorious.' I said, 'Didn't you tell us that we would go to the Kaʿba and perform Tawaf around it?' He said, 'Yes, but did I tell you that we would visit the Kaʿba this year?' I said, 'No.' He said, 'So you will visit it and perform Tawaf around it?' " ʿUmar further said, "I went to Abu Bakr and said, 'O Abu Bakr! Isn't he truly Allah's Prophet?' He replied, 'Yes.' I said, 'Then why should we be humble in our religion?' He said, 'Indeed, he is Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he does not disobey his Lord, and He will make him victorious. Adhere to him as, by Allah, he is on the right.' I said, 'Was he not telling us that we would go to the Kaʿba and perform Tawaf around it?' He said, 'Yes, but did he tell you that you would go to the Kaʿba this year?' I said, 'No.' He said, "You will go to Kaʿba and perform Tawaf around it." (Az-Zuhri said, " ʿUmar said, 'I performed many good deeds as expiation for the improper questions I asked them.' ") When the writing of the peace treaty was concluded, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his companions, "Get up and' slaughter your sacrifices and get your head shaved." By Allah none of them got up, and the Prophet repeated his order thrice. When none of them got up, he left them and went to Um Salama and told her of the people's attitudes towards him. Um Salama said, "O the Prophet ﷺ of Allah! Do you want your order to be carried out? Go out and don't say a word to anybody till you have slaughtered your sacrifice and call your barber to shave your head." So, the Prophet ﷺ went out and did not talk to anyone of them till he did that, i.e. slaughtered the sacrifice and called his barber who shaved his head. Seeing that, the companions of the Prophet ﷺ got up, slaughtered their sacrifices, and started shaving the heads of one another, and there was so much rush that there was a danger of killing each other. Then some believing women came (to the Prophet ﷺ ); and Allah revealed the following Divine Verses:-- "O you who believe, when the believing women come to you as emigrants examine them . . ." (60.10) ʿUmar then divorced two wives of his who were infidels. Later on Muawiya bin Abu Sufyan married one of them, and Safwan bin Umaiya married the other. When the Prophet ﷺ returned to Medina, Abu Basir, a new Muslim convert from Quraish came to him. The Infidels sent in his pursuit two men who said (to the Prophet ﷺ ), "Abide by the promise you gave us." So, the Prophet ﷺ handed him over to them. They took him out (of the City) till they reached Dhul-Hulaifa where they dismounted to eat some dates they had with them. Abu Basir said to one of them, "By Allah, O so-and-so, I see you have a fine sword." The other drew it out (of the scabbard) and said, "By Allah, it is very fine and I have tried it many times." Abu Basir said, "Let me have a look at it." When the other gave it to him, he hit him with it till he died, and his companion ran away till he came to Medina and entered the Mosque running. When Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him he said, "This man appears to have been frightened." When he reached the Prophet ﷺ he said, "My companion has been murdered and I would have been murdered too." Abu Basir came and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, by Allah, Allah has made you fulfill your obligations by your returning me to them (i.e. the Infidels), but Allah has saved me from them." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Woe to his mother! what excellent war kindler he would be, should he only have supporters." When Abu Basir heard that he understood that the Prophet ﷺ would return him to them again, so he set off till he reached the seashore. Abu Jandal bin Suhail got himself released from them (i.e. infidels) and joined Abu Basir. So, whenever a man from Quraish embraced Islam he would follow Abu Basir till they formed a strong group. By Allah, whenever they heard about a caravan of Quraish heading towards Sham, they stopped it and attacked and killed them (i.e. infidels) and took their properties. The people of Quraish sent a message to the Prophet ﷺ requesting him for the Sake of Allah and Kith and kin to send for (i.e. Abu Basir and his companions) promising that whoever (amongst them) came to the Prophet ﷺ would be secure. So the Prophet ﷺ sent for them (i.e. Abu Basir's companions) and Allah I revealed the following Divine Verses: "And it is He Who Has withheld their hands from you and your hands From them in the midst of Mecca, After He made you the victorious over them. ... the unbelievers had pride and haughtiness, in their hearts ... the pride and haughtiness of the time of ignorance." (48.24-26) And their pride and haughtiness was that they did not confess (write in the treaty) that he (i.e. Muhammad) was the Prophet of Allah and refused to write: "In the Name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the Most Merciful," and they (the mushriks) prevented them (the Muslims) from visiting the House (the Kaʿbah).

قُرَيْشٍ وَسَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِغَدِيرِ الْأَشْطَاطِ قَرِيبٌ مِنْ عُسْفَانَ أَتَاهُ عَيْنُهُ الْخُزَاعِيُّ فَقَالَ إِنِّي قَدْ تَرَكْتُ كَعْبَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ وَعَامِرَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ قَدْ جَمَعُوا لَكَ الْأَحَابِشَ وَقَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ وَقَالَ ق‍َدْ جَمَعُوا لَكَ الْأَحَابِيشَ وَجَمَعُوا لَكَ جُمُوعًا وَهُمْ مُقَاتِلُوكَ وَصَادُّوكَ عَنِ الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَشِيرُوا عَلَيَّ أَتَرَوْنَ أَنْ نَمِيلَ إِلَى ذَرَارِيِّ هَؤُلَاءِ الَّذِينَ أَعَانُوهُمْ فَنُصِيبَهُمْ فَإِنْ قَعَدُوا قَعَدُوا مَوْتُورِينَ مَحْرُوبِينَ وَإِنْ نَجَوْا وَقَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ مَحْزُونِينَ وَإِنْ يَحْنُونَ تَكُنْ عُنُقًا قَطَعَهَا اللهُ أَوْ تَرَوْنَ أَنْ نَؤُمَّ الْبَيْتَ فَمَنْ صَدَّنَا عَنْهُ قَاتَلْنَاهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ إِنَّمَا جِئْنَا مُعْتَمِرِينَ وَلَمْ نَجِئْ نُقَاتِلُ أَحَدًا وَلَكِنْ مَنْ حَالَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْبَيْتِ قَاتَلْنَاهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَرُوحُوا إِذًا قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ وَكَانَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا قَطُّ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ مَشُورَةً لِأَصْحَابِهِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ فِي حَدِيثِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ وَمَرْوَانَ فَرَاحُوا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِبَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ بِالْغَمِيمِ فِي خَيْلٍ لِقُرَيْشٍ طَلِيعَةً فَخُذُوا ذَاتَ الْيَمِينِ فَوَاللهِ مَا شَعَرَ بِهِمْ خَالِدٌ حَتَّى إِذَا هُوَ بِقَتَرَةِ الْجَيْشِ فَانْطَلَقَ يَرْكُضُنَذِيرًا لِقُرَيْشٍ وَسَارَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِالثَّنِيَّةِ الَّتِي يَهْبِطُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْهَا بَرَكَتْ بِهِ رَاحِلَتُهُ وَقَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ بَرَكَتْ بِهَا رَاحِلَتُهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَلْ حَلْ فَأَلَحَّتْ فَقَالُوا خَلَأَتِ الْقَصْوَاءُ خَلَأَتِ الْقَصْوَاءُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَا خَلَأَتْ الْقَصْوَاءُ وَمَا ذَاكَ لَهَا بِخُلُقٍ وَلَكِنْ حَبَسَهَا حَابِسُ الْفِيلِ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا يَسْأَلُونِي خُطَّةً يُعَظِّمُونَ فِيهَا حُرُمَاتِ اللهِ إِلَّا أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا ثُمَّ زَجَرَهَا فَوَثَبَتْ بِهِ قَالَ فَعَدَلَ عَنْهَا حَتَّى نَزَلَ بِأَقْصَى الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ عَلَى ثَمَدٍ قَلِيلِ الْمَاءِ إِنَّمَا يَتَبَرَّضُهُ النَّاسُ تَبَرُّضًا فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْهُ النَّاسُ أَنْ نَزَحُوهُ فَشُكِيَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْعَطَشُ فَانْتَزَعَ سَهْمًا مِنْ كِنَانَتِهِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَجْعَلُوهُ فِيهِ قَالَ فَوَاللهِ مَا زَالَ يَجِيشُ لَهُمْ بِالرِّيِّ حَتَّى صَدَرُوا عَنْهُ قَالَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ جَاءَ بُدَيْلُ بْنُ وَرْقَاءَ الْخُزَاعِيُّ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ وَكَانُوا عَيْبَةَ نُصْحٍ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَهْلِ تِهَامَةَ وَقَالَ إِنِّي تَرَكْتُ كَعْبَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ وَعَامِرَ بْنَ لُؤَيٍّ نَزَلُوا أَعْدَادَ مِيَاهِ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ مَعَهُمُ الْعُوذُ الْمَطَافِيلُ وَهُمْ مُقَاتِلُوكَ وَصَادُّوكَ عَنِ الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّا لَمْ نَجِئْ لِقِتَالِ أَحَدٍ وَلَكِنَّا جِئْنَا مُعْتَمِرِينَ وَإِنَّ قُرَيْشًا قَدْ نَهَكَتْهُمُ الْحَرْبُ فَأَضَرَّتْ بِهِمْ فَإِنْ شَاءُوا مَادَدْتُهُمْ مُدَّةً وَيُخَلُّوا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ النَّاسِ فَإِنْ أَظْهَرُ فَإِنْ شَاءُوا أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا فِيمَا دَخَلَ فِيهِ النَّاسُ فَعَلُوا وَإِلَّا فَقَدْ جَمَوْاوَإِنْ هُمْ أَبَوْا فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأُقَاتِلَنَّهُمْ عَلَى أَمْرِي هَذَا حَتَّى تَنْفَرِدَ سَالِفَتِي أَوْ لَيُنْفِذَنَّ اللهُ أَمْرَهُ قَالَ يَحْيَى عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ حَتَّى تَنْفَرِدَ قَالَ فَإِنْ شَاءُوا مَادَدْنَاهُمْ مُدَّةً قَالَ بُدَيْلٌ سَأُبَلِّغُهُمْ مَا تَقُولُ فَانْطَلَقَ حَتَّى أَتَى قُرَيْشًا فَقَالَ إِنَّا قَدْ جِئْنَاكُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ وَسَمِعْنَاهُ يَقُولُ قَوْلًا فَإِنْ شِئْتُمْ نَعْرِضُهُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَ سُفَهَاؤُهُمْ لَا حَاجَةَ لَنَا فِي أَنْ تُحَدِّثَنَا عَنْهُ بِشَيْءٍ وَقَالَ ذُو الرَّأْيِ مِنْهُمْ هَاتِ مَا سَمِعْتَهُ يَقُولُ قَالَ قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَحَدَّثَهُمْ بِمَا قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَامَ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ فَقَالَ أَيْ قَوْمُ أَلَسْتُمْ بِالْوَالِدِ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ أَوَلَسْتُ بِالْوَلَدِ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ فَهَلْ تَتَّهِمُونِي؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي اسْتَنْفَرْتُ أَهْلَ عُكَاظٍ فَلَمَّا بَلَّحُوا عَلَيَّ جِئْتُكُمْ بِأَهْلِي وَمَنْ أَطَاعَنِي؟ قَالُوا بَلَى فَقَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا قَدْ عَرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ خُطَّةَ رُشْدٍ فَاقْبَلُوهَا وَدَعُونِي آتِهِ فَقَالُوا ائْتِهِ فَأَتَاهُ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يُكَلِّمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ نَحْوًا مِنْ قَوْلِهِ لِبُدَيْلٍ فَقَالَ عُرْوَةُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ أَيْ مُحَمَّدُ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ اسْتَأْصَلْتَ قَوْمَكَ هَلْ سَمِعْتَ بِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ اجْتَاحَ أَصْلَهُ قَبْلَكَ؟ وَإِنْ تَكُنِ الْأُخْرَى فَوَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَرَى وُجُوهًا وَأَرَى أَوْبَاشًا مِنَ النَّاسِ خَلِيقًا أَنْ يَفِرُّوا وَيَدَعُوكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ امْصُصْ بَظْرَ اللَّاتِ نَحْنُ نَفِرُّ عَنْهُ وَنَدَعُهُ؟ فَقَالَ مَنْ ذَا؟ قَالُوا أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ أَمَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْلَا يَدٌ كَانَتْ لَكَ عِنْدِي لَمْ أَجْزِكَ بِهَا لَأَجَبْتُكَ وَجَعَلَ يُكَلِّمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَكُلَّمَا كَلَّمَهُ أَخَذَ بِلِحْيَتِهِ وَالْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رَأْسِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ السَّيْفُ وَعَلَيْهِ الْمِغْفَرُ وَكُلَّمَا أَهْوَى عُرْوَةُ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى لِحْيَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ضَرَبَ يَدَهُ بِنَصْلِ السَّيْفِ وَقَالَ أَخِّرْ يَدَكَ عَنْ لِحْيَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَفَعَ عُرْوَةُ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالُوا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ أَيْ غُدَرُ أَوَلَسْتُ أَسْعَى فِي غَدْرَتِكَ وَكَانَ الْمُغِيرَةُ صَحِبَ قَوْمًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَقَتَلَهُمْ وَأَخَذَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَأَسْلَمَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَمَّا الْإِسْلَامُ فَأَقْبَلُ وَأَمَّا الْمَالُ فَلَسْتُ مِنْهُ فِي شَيْءٍ ثُمَّ إِنَّ عُرْوَةَ جَعَلَ يَرْمُقُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِعَيْنِهِ قَالَ فَوَاللهِ مَا تَنَخَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نُخَامَةً إِلَّا وَقَعَتْ فِي كَفِّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ فَدَلَكَ بِهَا وَجْهَهُ وَجِلْدَهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرَهُمْ ابْتَدَرُوا أَمْرَهُ وَإِذَا تَوَضَّأَ كَادُوا يَقْتَتِلُونَ عَلَى وَضُوئِهِ وَإِذَا تَكَلَّمُوا خَفَضُوا أَصْوَاتَهُمْ عِنْدَهُ وَمَا يُحِدُّونَ إِلَيْهِ النَّظَرَ تَعْظِيمًا لَهُ فَرَجَعَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ أَيْ قَوْمِ وَاللهِ لَقَدْ وَفَدْتُ عَلَى الْمُلُوكِ وَوَفَدْتُ عَلَى قَيْصَرَ وَكِسْرَى وَالنَّجَاشِيِّ وَاللهِ إِنْ رَأَيْتُ مَلِكًا قَطُّ يُعَظِّمُهُ أَصْحَابُهُ مَا يُعَظِّمُ أَصْحَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ مُحَمَّدًا ﷺوَاللهِ إِنْ يَتَنَخَّمُ نُخَامَةً إِلَّا وَقَعَتْ فِي كَفَّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ فَدَلَكَ بِهَا وَجْهَهُ وَجِلْدَهُ وَإِذَا أَمَرَهُمْ ابْتَدَرُوا أَمْرَهُ وَإِذَا تَوَضَّأَ كَادُوا يَقْتَتِلُونَ عَلَى وَضُوئِهِ وَإِذَا تَكَلَّمُوا خَفَضُوا أَصْوَاتَهُمْ عِنْدَهُ وَمَا يُحِدُّونَ إِلَيْهِ النَّظَرَ تَعْظِيمًا لَهُ وَإِنَّهُ قَدْ عَرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ خُطَّةَ رُشْدٍ فَاقْبَلُوهَا فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي كِنَانَةَ دَعُونِي آتِيهِ فَقَالُوا ائْتِهِ فَلَمَّا أَشْرَفَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَذَا فُلَانٌ وَهُوَ مِنْ قَوْمٍ يُعَظِّمُونَ الْبُدْنَ فَابْعَثُوهَا لَهُ فَبُعِثَتْ لَهُ وَاسْتَقْبَلَهُ الْقَوْمُ يُلَبُّونَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ مَا يَنْبَغِي لِهَؤُلَاءِ أَنْ يُصَدُّوا عَنِ الْبَيْتِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ الْبُدْنَ قَدْ قُلِّدَتْ وَأُشْعِرَتْ فَلَمْ أَرَ أَنْ يُصَدُّوا عَنِ الْبَيْتِ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهُ مِكْرَزُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ فَقَالَ دَعُونِي آتِهِ فَقَالُوا ائْتِهِ فَلَمَّا أَشْرَفَ عَلَيْهِمْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَذَا مِكْرَزٌ وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ فَاجِرٌ فَجَعَلَ يُكَلِّمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَبَيْنَا هُوَ يُكَلِّمُهُ إِذْ جَاءَهُ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَيُّوبُ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا جَاءَ سُهَيْلٌ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَهُلَ مِنْ أَمْرِكُمْ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَجَاءَ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو فَقَالَ هَاتِ اكْتُبْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ كِتَابًا فَدَعَا الْكَاتِبَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اكْتُبْ بِسْمِ اللهِالرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلٌ أَمَّا الرَّحْمَنُ فَوَاللهِ مَا أَدْرِي مَا هُوَ وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ مَا هُوَ وَلَكِنْ اكْتُبْ بِاسْمِكَ اللهُمَّ كَمَا كُنْتَ تَكْتُبُ فَقَالَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَاللهِ مَا نَكْتُبُهَا إِلَّا بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اكْتُبْ بِاسْمِكَ اللهُمَّ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذَا مَا قَاضَى عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللهِ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلٌ وَاللهِ لَوْ كُنَّا نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ مَا صَدَدْنَاكَ عَنِ الْبَيْتِ وَلَا قَاتَلْنَاكَ وَلَكِنْ اكْتُبْ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَرَسُولُ اللهِ وَإِنْ كَذَّبْتُمُونِي اكْتُبْ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ وَذَلِكَ لِقَوْلِهِ لَا يَسْأَلُونِي خُطَّةً يُعَظِّمُونَ فِيهَا حُرُمَاتِ اللهِ إِلَّا أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ إِيَّاهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى أَنْ تُخَلُّوا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْبَيْتِ فَنَطُوفَ بِهِ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلٌ وَاللهِ لَا تَتَحَدَّثُ الْعَرَبُ أَنَّا أُخِذْنَا ضُغْطَةً وَلَكِنْ لَكَ مِنَ الْعَامِ الْمُقْبِلِ فَكَتَبَ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلٌ عَلَى أَنَّهُ لَا يَأْتِيكَ مِنَّا رَجُلٌ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَلَى دِينِكَ إِلَّا رَدَدْتَهُ إِلَيْنَا فَقَالَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ كَيْفَ يُرَدُّ إِلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَقَدْ جَاءَ مُسْلِمًا؟ فَبَيْنَا هُمْ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ جَاءَ أَبُو جَنْدَلِ بْنُ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو يَرْسُفُ وَقَالَ يَحْيَى عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ يَرْصُفُ فِي قُيُودِهِ وَقَدْ خَرَجَ مِنْ أَسْفَلِ مَكَّةَ حَتَّى رَمَى بِنَفْسِهِ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَقَالَ سُهَيْلٌ هَذَا يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَوَّلُ مَا أُقَاضِيكَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ تَرُدَّهُ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّا لَمْ نَقْضِ الْكِتَابَ بَعْدُ قَالَ فَوَاللهِ إِذًا لَا نُصَالِحُكَ عَلَى شَيْءٍأَبَدًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَجِزْهُ لِي قَالَ مَا أَنَا بِمُجِيزُهُ لَكَ قَالَ بَلَى فَافْعَلْ قَالَ مَا أَنَا بِفَاعِلٍ قَالَ مِكْرَزٌ بَلَى قَدْ أَجَزْنَاهُ لَكَ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَنْدَلٍ أَيْ مَعَاشِرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أُرَدُّ إِلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَقَدْ جِئْتُ مُسْلِمًا أَلَا تَرَوْنَ مَا قَدْ لَقِيتُ؟ وَكَانَ قَدْ عُذِّبَ عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا فِي اللهِ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ أَلَسْتَ نَبِيَّ اللهِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى قُلْتُ أَلَسْنَا عَلَى الْحَقِّ؟ وَعَدُوُّنَا عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ قُلْتُ فَلِمَ نُعْطِي الدَّنِيَّةَ فِي دِينِنَا إِذًا؟ قَالَ إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ وَلَسْتُ أَعْصِيهِ وَهُوَ نَاصِرِي قُلْتُ أَوَلَسْتَ كُنْتَ تُحَدِّثُنَا أَنَّا سَنَأْتِي الْبَيْتَ فَنَطُوفُ بِهِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ أَفَأَخْبَرْتُكَ أَنَّكَ تَأْتِيهِ الْعَامَ؟ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ آتِيهِ وَمُتَطَوِّفٌ بِهِ قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَلَيْسَ هَذَا نَبِيُّ اللهِ حَقًّا؟ قَالَ بَلَى قُلْتُ أَلَسْنَا عَلَى الْحَقِّ وَعَدُوُّنَا عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى قُلْتُ فَلِمَ نُعْطِي الدَّنِيَّةَ فِي دِينِنَا إِذًا؟ قَالَ أَيُّهَا الرَّجُلُ إِنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ وَلَنْ يَعْصِي رَبَّهُ ﷻ وَهُوَ نَاصِرُهُ فَاسْتَمْسِكْ بِغَرْزِهِ وَقَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ تَطَوَّفْ بِغَرْزِهِ حَتَّى تَمُوتَ فَوَاللهِ إِنَّهُ لَعَلَى الْحَقِّ قُلْتُ أَوَلَيْسَ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُنَا أَنَّا سَنَأْتِي الْبَيْتَ وَنَطُوفُ بِهِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ أَفَأَخْبَرَكَ أَنَّهُيَأْتِيهِ الْعَامَ؟ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ آتِيهِ وَمُتَطَوِّفٌ بِهِ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ قَالَ عُمَرُ فَعَمِلْتُ لِذَلِكَ أَعْمَالًا قَالَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ قَضِيَّةِ الْكِتَابِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِأَصْحَابِهِ قُومُوا فَانْحَرُوا ثُمَّ احْلِقُوا قَالَ فَوَاللهِ مَا قَامَ مِنْهُمْ رَجُلٌ حَتَّى قَالَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَقُمْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ قَامَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَذَكَرَ لَهَا مَا لَقِيَ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتُحِبُّ ذَلِكَ؟ اخْرُجْ ثُمَّ لَا تُكَلِّمْ أَحَدًا مِنْهُمْ كَلِمَةً حَتَّى تَنْحَرَ بُدْنَكَ وَتَدْعُوَ حَالِقَكَ فَيَحْلِقَكَ فَقَامَ فَخَرَجَ فَلَمْ يُكَلِّمْ أَحَدًا مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ نَحَرَ هَدْيَهُ وَدَعَا حَالِقَهُ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا ذَلِكَ قَامُوا فَنَحَرُوا وَجَعَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ يَحْلِقُ بَعْضًا حَتَّى كَادَ بَعْضُهُمْ يَقْتُلُ بَعْضًا غَمًّا ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ نِسْوَةٌ مُؤْمِنَاتٌ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا جَاءَكُمُ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ مُهَاجِرَاتٍ} [الممتحنة 10] حَتَّى بَلَغَ {بِعِصَمِ الْكَوَافِرِ} [الممتحنة 10] قَالَ فَطَلَّقَ عُمَرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ امْرَأَتَيْنِ كَانَتَا لَهُ فِي

الرَّجُلَيْنِ فَخَرَجَا بِهِ حَتَّى بَلَغَا بِهِ ذَا الْحُلَيْفَةِ فَنَزَلُوا يَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ تَمْرٍ لَهُمْ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ لِأَحَدِ الرَّجُلَيْنِ وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَرَى سَيْفَكَ يَا فُلَانُ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ left Hudaybiyyah around the 10th century. He mentioned the hadith, and from here is connected to the hadith of Al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) from Al-Qasim bin Muhammad who said, and Abu Basir said to Al-Amiri, "Isn't it good that I see this sword of yours, O brother of Banu Amr?" He said, "Yes, indeed." He said, "Show it to me." So he handed it to him, and Abu Basir took it and struck Al-Amiri until he killed him. Then the slave fled before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he entered [the place] where they thought the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in the masjid, intending to throw stones at him due to his zealousness. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him, he said, "He seems to be in a state of panic." Then he mentioned something from the hadith of Abdul Razzaq who said, "When the polytheists of Quraysh saw this, a group of them approached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'Your ceasefire is not benefiting you anything, while we are being killed and our wealth is being looted. We ask you to include those who have converted among us in your peace agreement and to prevent them from fighting against us.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did that and Allah revealed, 'And it is He who withheld their hands from you and your hands from them.' (Quran 48:24) He recited until he reached, 'The customs of ignorance' (Quran 48:26)."  

خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ زَمَنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فِي بِضْعَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَمِنْ هَاهُنَا مُلْصَقٌ بِحَدِيثِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ وَقَالَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ لِلْعَامِرِيِّ وَمَعَهُ سَيْفُهُ إِنِّي أَرَى سَيْفَكَ هَذَا يَا أَخَا بَنِي عَامِرٍ جَيِّدًا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ أَجَلْ قَالَ أَرِنِي أَنْظُرْ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَأَنْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ فَاسْتَلَّهُ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ الْعَامِرِيَّ حَتَّى قَتَلَهُ وَفَرَّ الْمَوْلَى يَجْمِزُ قِبَلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَدَخَلَ زَعَمُوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ يَطِنُّ الْحَصَا مِنْ شِدَّةِ سَعْيِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ رَآهُ لَقَدْ رَأَى هَذَا ذُعْرًا فَذَكَرَ نَحْوًا مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ كُفَّارُ قُرَيْشٍ رَكِبَ نَفَرٌ مِنْهُمْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا إِنَّهَا لَا تُغْنِي مُدَّتُكَ شَيْئًا وَنَحْنُ نُقْتَلُ وَتُنْهَبُ أَمْوَالُنَا وَإِنَّا نَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُدْخِلَ هَؤُلَاءِ الَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُوا مِنَّا فِي صُلْحِكَ وَتَمْنَعَهُمْ وَتَحْجِزَ عَنَّا قِتَالَهُمْ فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَهُوَ الَّذِي كَفَّ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَنْكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ عَنْهُمْ} [الفتح 24] فَقَرَأَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ {حَمِيَّةَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ} [الفتح 26]  

[Machine] He fulfilled his promise to me in the darkness, so I met him and praised Allah. He said, "There is no cause or lineage or connection that is dearer to me than your lineage and your connection. However, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Fatimah is a part of me, she causes me joy, and whatever causes her joy, causes me joy, and whatever causes her sorrow, causes me sorrow. In the Day of Resurrection, the lineages and connections will be cut off except for my lineage and my connection. And under you is his daughter, and even if I were to marry her to you, her connection would still be preserved. Therefore, he went away with an excuse."  

لَهُ تُوَافِينِي فِي الْعَتَمَةِ فَلَقِيَهُ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ الْمِسْوَرُ فَقَالَ مَا مِنْ سَبَبٍ وَلَا نَسَبٍ وَلَا صِهْرٍ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ نَسَبِكُمْ وَصِهْرِكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَاطِمَةُ شُجْنَةٌ مِنِّي يَبْسُطُنِي مَا بَسَطَهَا وَيَقْبِضُنِي مَا قَبَضَهَا وَإِنَّهُ يَنْقَطِعُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الْأَنْسَابُ وَالْأَسْبَابُ إِلَّا نَسَبِي وَسَبَبِي وَتَحْتَكَ ابْنَتُهَا وَلَوْ زَوَّجْتُكَ قَبَضَهَا ذَلِكَ فَذَهَبَ عَاذِرًا لَهُ  

"I passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he was praying, and greeted him with Salam. He returned my greeting with a gesture, or maybe it was just with his finger." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1186)   

عَنْ صُهَيْبٍ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَرَرْتُ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَسَلَّمْتُ فَرَدَّ إِلَيَّ إِشَارَةً وَقَالَ لَا أَعْلَمُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِشَارَةً بِإِصْبَعِهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever cheats a woman in her marriage dowry, and Allah knows that he has no intention of fulfilling it, he has deceived her in the eyes of Allah, and he has unlawfully engaged in sexual relations with her. He will meet Allah on the Day of Judgment while being an adulterer. And whoever takes someone's belongings unjustly as a debt, and Allah knows he has no intention of repaying it, he has deceived him in the eyes of Allah, and he will meet Allah on the Day of Judgment as a thief."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ أَصْدَقَ امْرَأَةً صَدَاقًا وَاللهُ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ لَا يُرِيدُ أَدَاءَهُ إِلَيْهَا فَغَرَّهَا بِاللهِ وَاسْتَحَلَّ فَرْجَهَا بِالْبَاطِلِ لَقِيَ اللهَ يَوْمَ يَلْقَاهُ وَهُوَ زَانٍ وَأَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ ادَّانَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ دَيْنًا وَاللهُ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ لَا يُرِيدُ أَدَاءَهُ إِلَيْهِ فَغَرَّهُ بِاللهِ وَاسْتَحَلَّ مَالَهُ بِالْبَاطِلِ لَقِيَ اللهَ ﷻ يَوْمَ يَلْقَاهُ وَهُوَ سَارِقٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to move his lips in a certain way during the Battle of Hunayn, which he had never done before. He then said, "Indeed, there was a prophet among those who came before you, and his nation pleased him. He said, 'These people will not experience any harm, and so Allah revealed to him that he should give them the choice between one of three things: either they would face an enemy from outside, whom they would defeat, or they would face hunger, or they would face death.' They said, 'We can't bear killing or hunger, but death we can bear.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'So he died, along with seventy thousand others.' Then he said, 'Now I say, O Allah, I make attempts and rely on You, and I fight for Your sake.'"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَيْهِ أَيَّامَ حُنَيْنٍ بِشَيْءٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَفْعَلُهُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ نَبِيًّا كَانَ فِيمَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ أَعْجَبَتْهُ أُمَّتُهُ فَقَالَ لَنْ يَرُومَ هَؤُلَاءِ شَيْءٌ فَأَوْحَى اللهُ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ خَيِّرْهُمْ بَيْنَ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ إِمَّا أَنْ أُسَلِّطَعَلَيْهِمْ عَدُوًّا مِنْ غَيْرِهِمْ فَيَسْتَبِيحَهُمْ أَوِ الْجُوعَ أَوِ الْمَوْتَ قَالَ فَقَالُوا أَمَّا الْقَتْلُ أَوِ الْجُوعُ فَلَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَلَكِنِ الْمَوْتُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَاتَ فِي ثَلَاثٍ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا قَالَ فَقَالَ فَأَنَا أَقُولُ الْآنَ اللهُمَّ بِكَ أُحَاوِلُ وَبِكَ أَصُولُ وَبِكَ أُقَاتِلُ  

the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said, "˹How˺ wondrous is the affair of a believer: for there is good in every affair of his, while that is not the case with anyone else except in the case of a believer: ˹i.e.,˺ if times of ease strike him, he is grateful which is good for him; and if times of distress strike him, he is patient, which is ˹also˺ good for him." (Using translation from Muslim 2999)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَجِبْتُ مِنْ أَمْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِنَّ أَمْرَ الْمُؤْمِنِ كُلَّهُ لَهُ خَيْرٌ وَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ لِأَحَدٍ إِلَّا لِلْمُؤْمِنِ إِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ سَرَّاءُ شَكَرَ كَانَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ خَيْرًا وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ ضَرَّاءُ فَصَبَرَ كَانَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ خَيْرًا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When the people of Paradise enter Paradise, they will be called: O people of Paradise, indeed you have an appointment with Allah, a appointment that you have not seen, so they will say: And what is it? Have our faces not been whitened, and have we not been saved from the Fire, and have we not been admitted to Paradise? He ﷺ said: Then the veil will be removed, and they will look at Him, and by Allah, Allah will not give them anything that is more beloved to them than looking at Him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited the verse: "For those who have done good is the best and extra." [Surah Yunus, 10:26]  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ نُودُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ إِنَّ لَكُمْ مَوْعِدًا عِنْدَ اللهِ مَوْعِدًا لَمْ تَرَوْهُ فَقَالُوا وَمَا هُوَ؟ أَلَمْ تُبَيِّضْ وُجُوهَنَا وَتُزَحْزِحْنَا عَنِ النَّارِ وَتُدْخِلْنَا الْجَنَّةَ؟ قَالَ فَيُكْشَفُ الْحِجَابُ فَيَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْهِ فَوَاللهِ مَا أَعْطَاهُمُ اللهُ شَيْئًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ تَلَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ {لِلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا الْحُسْنَى وَزِيَادَةٌ} [يونس 26]  

from the Prophet ﷺ, regarding the saying of Allah Most High: And for those who have done good is the best and even more (10:26) - He ﷺ said: "When the inhabitants of Paradise have entered Paradise a caller will call out: 'Indeed there remains for you a promise with Allah, and He wants to reward you with it.' They will say: 'Have your faces not been made bright, have we not been saved from the Fire, and have we not been admitted into Paradise?'" He said: "So the Veil will be lifted." He said: "By Allah! Nothing given to them [by Allah] will be more beloved to them than looking at Him." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3105)   

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا دَخَلَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَهْلُ النَّارِ النَّارَ نُودُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ إِنَّ لَكُمْ عِنْدَ اللهِ مَوْعِدًا فَقَالُوا أَلَمْ يُثَقِّلْ مَوَازِينَنَا وَيُعْطِينَا كُتُبَنَا بِأَيْمَانِنَا وَيُدْخِلْنَا الْجَنَّةَ وَيُنْجِينَا مِنَ النَّارِ فَيُكْشَفُ الْحِجَابُ قَالَ فَيَتَجَلَّى الله ﷻ لَهُمْ قَالَ فَمَا أَعْطَاهُمُ اللهُ شَيْئًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّظَرِ إِلَيْهِ  

[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , used to pray, he would whisper something that we could not understand, and he would not inform us about it. So the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, 'Did you notice that?' A person said, 'Yes.' The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, 'Indeed, I mentioned a prophet from among the prophets who was granted soldiers from his people?' He said, 'So who is equal to these or who stands up for these or a word similar to this?' Sulaiman was doubted. Allah, the Exalted, revealed to him to choose for his people one of three: either to be afflicted with an enemy from other than them, or hunger, or death.' He said, 'So he consulted his people about it, and they said, 'You are the Prophet of Allah. So it is up to you to decide. So pride for us.' He said, 'So he stood up for his prayer, and they used to be terrified when they hurried to the prayer. He said, 'So he prayed. He said, 'As for an enemy from other than them, no. And as for hunger, no. But death.' He said, 'So death was inflicted upon them for three days, and seventy thousand of them died. My whispering that you see me say, 'O Lord, I fight for You and I strive, and there is no power or strength except with Allah."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا صَلَّى هَمَسَ شَيْئًا لَا نَفْهَمُهُ وَلَا يُحَدِّثُنَا بِهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَطِنْتُمْ لِي؟ قَالَ قَائِلٌ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَإِنِّي قَدْ ذَكَرْتُ نَبِيًّا مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ أُعْطِيَ جُنُودًا مِنْ قَوْمِهِ؟ فَقَالَ مَنْ يُكَافِئُ هَؤُلَاءِ أَوْ مَنْ يَقُومُ لِهَؤُلَاءِ أَوْ كَلِمَةً شَبِيهَةً بِهَذِهِ شَكَّ سُلَيْمَانُ قَالَ فَأَوْحَى اللهُ إِلَيْهِ اخْتَرْ لِقَوْمِكَ بَيْنَ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ إِمَّا أَنْ أُسَلِّطَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَدُوًّا مِنْ غَيْرِهِمْ أَوِ الْجُوعَ أَوِ الْمَوْتَ قَالَ فَاسْتَشَارَ قَوْمَهُ فِي ذَلِكَفَقَالُوا أَنْتَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ نَكِلُ ذَلِكَ إِلَيْكَ فَخِرْ لَنَا قَالَ فَقَامَ إِلَى صَلَاتِهِ قَالَ وَكَانُوا يَفْزَعُونَ إِذَا فَزِعُوا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ قَالَ فَصَلَّى قَالَ أَمَّا عَدُوٌّ مِنْ غَيْرِهِمْ فَلَا أَوِ الْجُوعُ فَلَا وَلَكِنِ الْمَوْتُ قَالَ فَسُلِّطَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَوْتُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ فَمَاتَ مِنْهُمْ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا فَهَمْسِي الَّذِي تَرَوْنَ أَنِّي أَقُولُ اللهُمَّ يَا رَبِّ بِكَ أُقَاتِلُ وَبِكَ أُصَاوِلُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ  

[Machine] Narrated Hammad bin Salamah, according to this narration, he spoke in these words entirely and with this chain of narration, and he did not say in it "they used to rush to prayer when they were startled".  

حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ سَوَاءً بِهَذَا الْكَلَامِ كُلِّهِ وَبِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ فِيهِ كَانُوا إِذَا فَزِعُوا فَزِعُوا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ
