Allah has commanded you to treat well your parents and I am your mother and I command you to do this. She passed three days in this state until she fainted because of extreme hunger and at that time her son whose name was Umara stood up and served her drink and she began to curse Sa'd that Allah, the Exalted and Glorions, revealed these verses of the Holy Qur'an:" And We have enjoined upon a person goodness to his parents but if they contend with thee to associate (others) with Me of which you have no knowledge, then obey them not" (xxix. 8) ; Treat thein with customary good in this world" (xxxi. 15). He also reported that there fell to the lot of Messenger of Allah ﷺ huge spoils of war and there was one sword in them. I picked that up and came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Bestow this sword upon me (as my share in the spoils of war) and you know my state. Thereupon he said: Return it to the place from where you picked it up. I went back until I decided to throw it in a store but my soul repulsed me so I came back and asked him to give that sword to me. He said in a loud voice to return it to the place from where I had picked it up. It was on this occasion that this verse was revealed:" They asked about the spoils of war" (viii. 1). He further said: I once fell ill and sent a message to Allah's Apostle ﷺ. He visited me and I said to him: Permit me to distribute (in charity) my property as much as I like. He did not agree. I said: (Permit me to distribute) half of it. He did not agree. I said: (Permit me to distribute) the third part, whereupon he kept quiet and it was after this (that the distribution of one's property in charity) to the extent of one-third was held valid. He further said: I came to a group of persons of the Ansir and Muhajirin and they said: Come, so that we may serve you wine, and it was before the use of wine had been prohibited. I went to them in a garden and there had been with them the roasted head of a camel and a small water-skin containing wine. I ate and drank along with them and there came under discussion the Ansr (Helpers) and Muhajirin (immigrants). I said: The immigrants are better than the Ansar, that a person picked up a portion of the head (of the camel and struck me with it that my nose was injured. I came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him of the situation that Aliah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed verses pertaining to wine:" Intoxicants and the games of chance and (sacrificing to) stones set up and (divining by) arrows are only an uncleanliness, the devil's work" (v. 90).

[Machine] My father bought a sword, so I said, "O Messenger of Allah, allow me to fight with it." He replied, "Put it down." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, allow me to fight with it." He said, "Put it down wherever you found it." Then the verse was revealed, "They ask you about the spoils of war" (Quran 8:1), and he said, "This is the recitation of Ibn Mas'ood." My mother said, "Doesn't Allah command you to maintain family ties and be good to your parents? By Allah, I will not eat or drink until you disbelieve in Muhammad." So she refrained from eating until her cheeks turned hollow. They filled a container with milk and poured it into her mouth with a stick. Shu'bah said, "I think it was during the revelation of 'And We have enjoined upon man [care] for his parents. His mother carried him, [increasing her] in weakness upon weakness'" (Quran 31:14), and he continued reciting until he reached the verse, "For whatever good deeds you do" (Quran 31:15). The Prophet ﷺ visited me while I was sick, and I said, "O Messenger of Allah, can I donate all of my wealth?" He prevented me. I asked, "Half of it?" He replied, "No." I asked, "A third of it?" He remained silent, so the people took it and a man from the Ansar prepared food. They ate, drank, and became intoxicated with alcohol. This took place before it was prohibited. We gathered around him and praised ourselves. The Ansar said, "The Ansar are better," and the Muhajirun said, "The Muhajirun are better." A man leaned his face against a pig's belly, and his nose got damaged. The nose of Sa'd became crooked. Then the verse was revealed, "O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling" (Quran 5:90), until Allah's saying, "Then will you not desist?" (Quran 5:91).  

أَبِي أَصَبْتُ سَيْفًا قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَفِّلْنِيهِ قَالَ ضَعْهُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَفِّلْنِيهِ أُجْعَلُ كَمَنْ لَا غَنَاءَ لَهُ؟ قَالَ ضَعْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَخَذْتَهُ فَنَزَلَتْ يَسْأَلُونَكَ الْأَنْفَالَ قَالَ وَهِيَ فِي قِرَاءَةِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ كَذَلِكَ {قُلِ الْأَنْفَالُ} وَقَالَتْ أُمِّي أَلَيْسَ اللهُ يَأْمُرُكَ بِصِلَةِ الرَّحِمِ وَبِرِّ الْوَالِدَيْنِ؟ وَاللهِ لَا آكُلُ طَعَامًا وَلا أَشْرَبُ شَرَابًا حَتَّى تَكْفُرَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ فَكَانَتْ لَا تَأْكُلُ حَتَّى يَشْجُرُوا فَمَهَا بِعَصًا فَيَصُبُّوا فِيهِ الشَّرَابَ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأُرَاهُ قَالَ وَالطَّعَامَ فَأُنْزِلَتْ {وَوَصَّيْنَا الْإِنْسَانَ بِوَالِدَيْهِ حَمَلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَهْنًا عَلَى وَهْنٍ} وَقَرَأَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ {بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ} [لقمان 1415] وَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَنَا مَرِيضٌ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ؟ فَنَهَانِي قُلْتُ النِّصْفُ؟ قَالَ لَا قُلْتُ الثُّلُثُ؟ فَسَكَتَ فَأَخَذَ النَّاسُ بِهِ وَصَنَعَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ طَعَامًا فَأَكَلُوا وَشَرِبُوا وَانْتَشَوْا مِنَ الخَمْرِ وَذَاكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُحَرَّمَ فَاجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَهُ فَتَفَاخَرُوا وَقَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ الْأَنْصَارُ خَيْرٌ وَقَالَتِ الْمُهَاجِرُونَ الْمُهَاجِرُونَ خَيْرٌ فَأَهْوَى لَهُ رَجُلٌ بِلَحْيِ جَزُورٍ فَفَزَرَ أَنْفَهُ فَكَانَ أَنْفُ سَعْدٍ مَفْزُورًا فَنَزَلَتْ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنَّمَا الْخَمْرُ وَالْمَيْسِرُ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {فَهَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُنْتَهُونَ} [المائدة 9091]  

[Machine] I was granted four verses. I struck someone with a sword and then went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, allow me to make a voluntary offering." He said, "Leave it." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, allow me to make a voluntary offering and make me like someone who cannot afford." He said, "Leave it as it is from where you took it." Then this verse was revealed: "They ask you about the spoils of war" (Quran 8:1). A man from the Ansar prepared a meal and invited us. We drank alcohol until we became intoxicated. The Ansar and the Quraysh began to boast and say, "We are better than you." Then, a man from the Ansar took the lower jaw of a camel and hit Saad’s nose, breaking it. Saad then counter-attacked him and disfigured his nose. Saad's nose was cut open. Then, this verse was revealed: "Indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than Allah], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may be successful" (Quran 5:90). Umm Saad said, "Hasn't Allah commanded righteousness? By Allah, I will neither eat food nor drink drink until I die or become infidel." They would plant barley for her when she wanted to eat, and this verse was revealed: "And We have enjoined upon man [care] for his parents. His mother carried him, [increasing her] in weakness upon weakness" (Quran 31:14). The Prophet ﷺ visited me while I was ill. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, should I give all of my property as a charitable offering?" He said, "No." I said, "Should I give two-thirds of it?" He replied, "No." I said, "Should I give half of it?" He again said, "No." I said, "Should I give one-third of it?" Then, he remained silent.  

أُنْزِلَتْ فِيَّ أَرْبَعُ آيَاتٍ أَصَبْتُ سَيْفًا فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَفِّلْنِيهِ قَالَ «ضَعْهُ» ثُمَّ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَفِّلْنِيهِ وَاجْعَلْنِي كَمَنْ لَا غَنَاءَ لَهُ قَالَ «ضَعْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَخَذْتَ» فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْأَنْفَالِ} وَصَنَعَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ طَعَامًا فَدَعَانَا فَشَرِبْنَا الْخَمْرَ حَتَّى انْتَشَيْنَا فَتَفَاخَرَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ وَقُرَيْشٌ فَقَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ نَحْنُ أَفْضَلُ مِنْكُمْ وَقَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ نَحْنُ أَفْضَلُ فَأَخَذَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ لَحْيَ جَزُورٍ فَضَرَبَ أَنْفَ سَعْدٍ فَفَزَرَهُ فَكَانَ أَنْفُ سَعْدٍ مَفْزُورًا قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {إِنَّمَا الْخَمْرُ وَالْمَيْسِرُ وَالْأَنْصَابُ وَالْأَزْلَامُ رِجْسٌ مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّيْطَانِ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ} وَقَالَتْ أُمُّ سَعْدٍ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ أَمَرَ اللَّهُ بِالْبِرِّ وَاللَّهِ لَا أَطْعَمُ طَعَامًا وَلَا أَشْرَبُ شَرَابًا حَتَّى أَمُوتَ أَوْ تَكْفُرَ قَالَ فَكَانُوا إِذَا أَرَادُوا أَنْ يُطْعِمُوهَا شَجَرُوا فَاهَا فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {وَوَصَّيْنَا الْإِنْسَانَ بِوَالِدَيْهِ حُسْنًا} الْآيَةُ قَالَ وَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا مَرِيضٌ يَعُودُنِي قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قُلْتُ فَبِثُلُثَيْهِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قُلْتُ فَبِنِصْفِهِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قُلْتُ فَبِثُلُثِهِ؟ قَالَ فَسَكَتَ
