When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was commanded to give option to his wives, he started it from me saying: I am going to mention to you a matter which you should not (decide) in haste until you have consulted your parents. She said that he already knew that my parents would never allow me to seek separation from him She said: Then he said: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said: Prophet, say to thy wives: If you desire this world's life and its adornment, then come, I will give you a provision and allow you to depart a goodly departing; and if you desire Allah and His Messenger and the abode of the Hereafter, then Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a great reward She is reported to have said: About what should I consult my parents, for I desire Allah and His Messenger and the abode of the Hereafter? She ('A'isha) said: Then all the wives of Messenger of Allah ﷺ did as I had done. (Using translation from Muslim 1475)   

لَمَّا أُمِرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِتَخْيِيرِ أَزْوَاجِهِ بَدَأَ بِي فَقَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنِّي مُخْبِرُكِ خَبَرًا فَلَا عَلَيْكِ أَنْ لَا تَعْجَلِي حَتَّى تَسْتَأْمِرِي أَبَوَيْكِ قَالَتْ وَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَنَّ أَبَوِيَّ لَمْ يَكُونَا يَأْمُرَانِي بِفِرَاقِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِأَزْوَاجِكَ إِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا فَتَعَالَيْنَ أُمَتِّعْكُنَّ وَأُسَرِّحْكُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلًا وَإِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ أَعَدَّ لِلْمُحْسِنَاتِ مِنْكُنَّ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا} [الأحزاب 29] فَقُلْتُ فِي هَذَا أَسْتَأْمِرُ أَبَوِيَّ ‍‍ فَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ ثُمَّ فَعَلَ أَزْوَاجُهُ مِثْلَ مَا فَعَلْتُ  

I was eager to ask 'Umar about the two wives of the Prophet ﷺ concerning whom Allah said, “If you two (wives of the Prophet ﷺ turn in repentance to Allah, (it will be better for you), your hearts are indeed so inclined (to oppose what the Prophet ﷺ likes)” [at-Tahreem 66:4], until 'Umar went for Hajj and I went with him. When we were partway there, 'Umar turned aside and I turned aside with him, bringing the jug. He relieved himself, then he came to me and I poured water onto his hands, and he did wudoo’. I said: “O Ameer al -Mu'mineen, who are the two wives of the Prophet ﷺ of whom Allah said: ‘If you two (wives of the Prophet ﷺ) turn in repentance to Allah, (it will be better for you), your hearts are indeed so inclined (to oppose what the Prophet ﷺ likes)’?” [at-Tahreem 66:4] 'Umar said, “How strange of you, O Ibn 'Abbas”, (az-Zuhri said: By Allah, he did not like the question, but he did not conceal anything.) He said, “They were Hafsah and 'A'ishah.” Then he started to narrate the hadeeth and said: We people of Quraish were a people who dominated women, but when we came to Madinah we found a people who were dominated by their women, and our women started to learn from their women. My house was among Banu Umayyah bin Zaid in al-'Awali. One day I got angry with my wife, and she argued with me. I did not like her to argue with me, but she said: Do you not like me to argue with you? By Allah, the wives of the Prophet ﷺ argue with him, and one of them will forsake him all day until night comes, I went and entered upon Hafsah, and I said: Do you argue with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? She said: Yes. I said: Does one of you forsake him all day until night comes? She said: Yes. I said: Any one of you who does that is doomed and lost. Does any one of you feel assured that Allah will not be angry with her because of the anger of His Messenger ﷺ, for then she will be doomed? Do not argue with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and do not ask him for anything. Ask me for whatever you want. And do not be misled by the fact that your neighbour is more beautiful than you and more beloved to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than you – referring to 'A'ishah. And ‘Umar said: I had a neighbour among the Ansar. We used to take turns to go down to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He would go down one day and I would go down the next. He would bring me the news of the Revelation and other things, and I would do likewise. We were saying that Ghassan were shoeing their horses to attack us. My friend went down, then he came to me at night and knocked on my door, then he called out to me. I went out to him and he said: Something terrible has happened! I said: What? Have Ghassan come? He said: No, it is more terrible than that and worse. The Prophet ﷺ has divorced his wives! I said: Hafsah is doomed and lost! I thought that this would happen. Then when I had prayed Fajr, I got dressed, then I went down and entered upon Hafsah, who was weeping. I said: Has the Messenger of Allah ﷺdivorced you? She said: I do not know. He has secluded himself in this loft. I went to a black slave of his and said: Ask for permission for ‘Umar to enter. He went in, then he came out to me and said: I mentioned you to him but he did not say anything, I went away and came to the minbar, where I sat down. By it was a group of people, some of whom were weeping. I sat for a little while, then I could not bear it any longer, so I went to the slave and said: Ask for permission for ‘Umar to enter. He went in, then he came out to me and said: I mentioned you to him but he did not say anything. I turned to leave, then the slave called me and said: Go in, he has given you permission. So I went in and greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with salam. He was resting on a reed mat that had left marks on his side. I said: O Messenger of Allah, have you divorced your wives? He looked up at me and said, “No.” I said: Allah Akbar! if you had seen us, O Messenger of Allah, we Quraish were a people who dominated women, but when we came to Madinah we found a people who were dominated by their women, and our women started to learn from their women. I got angry with my wife one day, and she started to argue with me. I did not like her to argue with me, but she said: Do you not like me to argue with you? By Allah, the wives of the Prophet ﷺ argue with him, and one of them will forsake him all day until night comes. I said: Any one of them who does that is doomed and lost. Does one of them feel assured that Allah will not be angry with her because of the anger of His Messenger ﷺ,then she will be doomed? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled. I said: O Messenger of Allah, I entered upon Hafsah and I said: Do not be misled by the fact that your neighbour (i.e. ‘Aa'ishah) is more beautiful than you and more beloved to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than you. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled again. I said: O Messenger of Allah, may I speak to you freely? He said: “Yes.” So I sat down and looked around the room, and by Allah, I did not see anything in it to please the eye except three hides. I said: Pray to Allah, O Messenger of Allah, to make life prosperous for your ummah, for He has made life prosperous for the Persians and Romans, but they do not worship Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. He sat up straight and said: “Are you doubting. O son of al-Khattab? They are people whose good things have been hastened for them in this world.” I said: Pray for forgiveness for me, O Messenger of Allah. He had sworn that he would not enter upon them for a month, because he was so annoyed with them until Allah rebuked him. (Using translation from Aḥmad 222)

عَلَيْهَا لِغَضَبِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ هَلَكَتْ؟ لَا تُرَاجِعِي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَا تَسْأَلِيهِ شَيْئًا وَسَلِينِي مَا بَدَا لَكِ وَلَا يَغُرَّنَّكِ إِنْ كَانَتْ جَارَتُكِ هِيَ

Abu Bakr (Allah be pleased with him) came and sought permission to see Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He found people sitting at his door and none amongst them had been granted permission, but it was granted to Abu Bakr and he went in. Then came 'Umar and he sought permission and it was granted to him, and he found Allah's Apostle ﷺ sitting sad and silent with his wives around him. He (Hadrat 'Umar) said: I would say something which would make the Prophet ﷺ laugh, so he said: Messenger of Allah, I wish you had seen (the treatment meted out to) the daughter ofKhadija when you asked me some money, and I got up and slapped her on her neck. Messenger of Allah (mav peace be upon him) laughed and said: They are around me as you see, asking for extra money. Abu Bakr (Allah be pleased with him) then got up went to 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) and slapped her on the neck, and 'Umar stood up before Hafsa and slapped her saying: You ask Messenger of Allah ﷺ which he does not possess. They said: By Allah, we do not ask Messenger of Allah ﷺ for anything he does not possess. Then he withdrew from them for a month or for twenty-nine days. Then this verse was revealed to him:" Prophet: Say to thy wives... for a mighty reward" (xxxiii. 28). He then went first to 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) and said: I want to propound something to you, 'A'isha, but wish no hasty reply before you consult your parents. She said: Messenger of Allah, what is that? He (the Holy Prophet) recited to her the verse, whereupon she said: Is it about you that I should consult my parents, Messenger of Allah? Nay, I choose Allah, His Messenger, and the Last Abode; but I ask you not to tell any of your wives what I have said He replied: Not one of them will ask me without my informing her. God did not send me to be harsh, or cause harm, but He has sent me to teach and make things easy. (Using translation from Muslim 1478)

[Machine] God's Messenger has given us the choice, so we did not consider it as divorce.  

ؓ قَدْ خَيَّرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَمْ نَعُدَّهُ طَلَاقًا  

[Machine] Who sought refuge from Al-Zuhri and what did he say in response? Aisha reported that when the daughter of Al-Jawn Al-Kalabiyyah was brought to the Prophet ﷺ , she said, "I seek refuge in Allah from you." He said, "You have sought refuge in a Great Protector against harm to your family."  

الزُّهْرِيَّ أِيُّ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اسْتَعَاذَتْ مِنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُرْوَةُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ أَنَّ ابْنَةَ الْجَوْنِ الْكِلَابِيَّةَ لَمَّا أُدْخِلَتْ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْكَ قَالَ لَقَدْ عُذْتِ بِعَظِيمٍ الْحَقِي بِأَهْلِكِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was specifically ordered to observe the night prayer and was devoted to it.  

لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ خَاصَّةً أُمِرَ بِقِيَامِ اللَّيْلِ وَلَبِثَ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are three obligations upon me, which are Sunnah for you: Witr prayer, using toothstick (miswak), and standing (in prayer) during the night." Musa bin Abdullah Rahman said, "This hadith is very weak and it is not established in this chain of narration. And Allah knows best."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةٌ عَلَيَّ فَرِيضَةٌ وَهِيَ لَكُمْ سُنَّةٌ الْوِتْرُ وَالسِّوَاكُ وَقِيَامُ اللَّيْلِ مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا ضَعِيفٌ جِدًّا وَلَمْ يَثْبُتْ فِي هَذَا إِسْنَادٌ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to pray until his feet or legs became swollen. They said to him, "Why do you do this when Allah has forgiven you for all your sins?" He replied, "Shouldn't I be a thankful servant?"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي حَتَّى تَرِمَ أَوْ تَنْتَفِخَ رِجْلَاهُ أَوْ قَدَمَاهُ قَالَ فَقَالُوا لَهُ قَالَ أَفَلَا أَكُونُ عَبْدًا شَكُورًا؟  

Messenger of Allah you do this (in spite of the fact) that your earlier and later sins have been pardoned for you? Thereupon, he said. A'isha should I not prove myself to be a thanksgiving servant (of Allah)? (Using translation from Muslim 2820)   

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا صَلَّى قَامَ حَتَّى تَفْطُرَ رِجْلَاهُ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا وَقَدْ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ؟ قَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ أَفَلَا أَكُونُ عَبْدًا شَكُورًا؟  

[Machine] That the Prophet ﷺ used to eat gifts but not charity.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَأْكُلُ الْهَدِيَّةَ وَلَا يَأْكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ  

[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought food, he would ask if it was a gift or charity. If they said it was a gift, he would extend his hand to take it, and if they said it was charity, he would tell his companions to eat it. This was narrated by Ya'qub ibn Sufyan."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا أُتِيَ بِطَعَامٍ سَأَلَ عَنْهُ أَهَدِيَّةٌ أَمْ صَدَقَةٌ؟ فَإِنْ قَالُوا هَدِيَّةٌ بَسَطَ يَدَهُ وَإِنْ قَالُوا صَدَقَةٌ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ كُلُوا بَهْزٌ هُوَ ابْنُ حَكِيمِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ حَيْدَةَ الْقُشَيْرِيُّ أَحَدُ بَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ صَعْصَعَةَ بْنِ هَوَازِنَ قَالَهُ يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ  

On the day when Mecca was conquered, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave protection to the People except four men and two women and he named them. Ibn AbuSarh was one of them. He then narrated the tradition. He said: Ibn AbuSarh hid himself with Uthman ibn Affan. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called the people to take the oath of allegiance, he brought him and made him stand before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: Messenger of Allah, receive the oath of allegiance from him. He raised his head and looked at him thrice, denying him every time. After the third time he received his oath. He then turned to his Companions and said: Is not there any intelligent man among you who would stand to this (man) when he saw me desisting from receiving the oath of allegiance, and kill him? They replied: We do not know, Messenger of Allah, what lies in your heart; did you not give us an hint with your eye? He said: It is not proper for a Prophet to have a treacherous eye. Abu Dawud said: 'Abd Allah (b. Abi Sarh) was the foster brother of 'Uthman, and Walid b. 'Uqbah was his brother by mother, and 'Uthman inflicted on him hadd punishment when he drank wine. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2683)   

لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْفَتْحِ أَيْ يَوْمُ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ أَمَّنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ إِلَّا أَرْبَعَةَ نَفَرٍ وَامْرَأَتَيْنِ مِنْهُمْ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى أَنْ قَالَ وَأَمَّا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ فَإِنَّهُ اخْتَبَأَ عِنْدَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ؓ فَلَمَّا دَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ إِلَى الْبَيْعَةِ جَاءَ بِهِ حَتَّى أَوْقَفَهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ بَايِعْ عَبْدَ اللهِ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ ثَلَاثًا كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يَأْبَى فَبَايَعَهُ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ أَمَا فِيكُمْ رَجُلٌ رَشِيدٌ يَقُومُ إِلَى هَذَا حَيْثُ رَآنِي قَدْ كَفَفْتُ يَدِي عَنْ بَيْعَتِهِ فَيَقْتُلَهُ؟ قَالُوا مَا يُدْرِينَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا فِي نَفْسِكَ هَلَّا أَوْمَأْتَ إِلَيْنَا بِعَيْنِكَ؟ قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تَكُونَ لِنَبِيٍّ خَائِنَةُ الْأَعْيُنِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said that war is deception.  

النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ الْحَرْبُ خُدْعَةٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever has Li'ka'b bin Al-Ashraf, then he has harmed Allah and His Messenger." Muhammad bin Maslamah said: "O Messenger of Allah, do you want me to kill him?" He ﷺ said: "Yes." Muhammad bin Maslamah requested permission to speak and he ﷺ granted it to him. Muhammad bin Maslamah then mentioned the story, narrating the plot to kill Li'ka'b bin Al-Ashraf. Muhammad bin Maslamah said: "When I had the chance, I killed him." They then came to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him of what they did. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "War is deception." An-Nasa'i 4064  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ لِكَعْبِ بْنِ الْأَشْرَفِ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ آذَى اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ؟ فَقَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ ؓ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتُحِبُّ أَنْ أَقْتُلَهُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأْذَنْ لِي فَأَقُولَ قَالَ قَدْ أَذِنْتُ لَكَ فَذَكَرَ الْقِصَّةَ فِي احْتِيَالِهِ فِي قَتْلِ كَعْبِ بْنِ الْأَشْرَفِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا اسْتَمْكَنَ مِنْهُ قَتَلُوهُ فَأَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْحَرْبُ خَدْعَةٌ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ  

[Machine] 'Urwa narrated the story of the Battle of Uhud and the Prophet's indication to the Muslims to stay in Medina, and how many people refused to do anything other than go out to fight the enemy. He said, "If they had agreed to follow the words and command of the Messenger of Allah, it would have been better for them, but destiny prevailed." He said, "Most of those who were encouraged to go out were men who had not witnessed the Battle of Badr but they knew the virtue that the people of Badr had achieved. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished the Friday prayer, delivered his sermon, reminded and ordered the people to be diligent and strive, then he finished his sermon and prayers, he called his people and dressed them up, then he called the people to go out. When men with foresight saw this, they said, "The Messenger of Allah ordered us to stay in Medina, but if the enemy comes to us, we will fight them in the alleys, and he is more knowledgeable about Allah and what He wants, and revelation comes to him from the heavens." Then they gathered and said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we stay as you commanded us?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is not appropriate for a Prophet when he has prepared his army and called the people to go out and fight, to retreat without fighting. I have called you to this talk, but you refused to do anything other than go out, so you must fear Allah and have patience when you meet the enemy, and see what I have commanded you to do, so do it." So the Messenger of Allah and the Muslims went out with him, and he narrated the hadith in this way. Musa bin 'Uqba narrated it from Az-Zuhri, and Muhammad bin Ishaq bin Yasir narrated it from his sheikhs among the people of the expeditions, and it is common among the people of the expeditions, even though it is disconnected, and we have connected it with a good chain of narrators.  

عَنْ عُرْوَةَ فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ أُحُدٍ وَإِشَارَةَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ بِالْمُكْثِ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ وَأَنَّ كَثِيرًا مِنَ النَّاسِ أَبَوْا إِلَّا الْخُرُوجَ إِلَى الْعَدُوِّ قَالَ وَلَوْ تَنَاهَوْا إِلَى قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَمْرِهِ كَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ وَلَكِنْ غَلَبَ الْقَضَاءُ وَالْقَدَرُ قَالَ وَعَامَّةُ مَنْ أَشَارَ عَلَيْهِ بِالْخُرُوجِ رِجَالٌ لَمْ يَشْهَدُوا بَدْرًا وَقَدْ عَلِمُوا الَّذِي سَبَقَ لِأَهْلِ بَدْرٍ مِنَ الْفَضِيلَةِ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَعَظَ النَّاسَ وَذَكَّرَهُمْ وَأَمَرَهُمْ بِالْجِدِّ وَالِاجْتِهَادِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ مِنْ خُطْبَتِهِ وَصَلَاتِهِ فَدَعَا بِلَأْمَتِهِ فَلَبِسَهَا ثُمَّ أَذَّنَ فِي النَّاسِ بِالْخُرُوجِ فَلَمَّا أَبْصَرَ ذَلِكَ رِجَالٌ مِنْ ذَوِي الرَّأْيِ قَالُوا أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ نَمْكُثَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَإِنْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا الْعَدُوُّ قَاتَلْنَاهُمْ فِي الْأَزِقَّةِ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِاللهِ وَبِمَا يُرِيدُ وَيَأْتِيهِ الْوَحْيُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ أَشْخَصْنَاهُ فَقَالُوا يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ أَنَمْكُثُ كَمَا أَمَرْتَنَا؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِنَبِيٍّ إِذَا أَخَذَ لَامَّةَ الْحَرْبِ وَأَذَّنَ فِي النَّاسِ بِالْخُرُوجِ إِلَى الْعَدُوِّ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ حَتَّى يُقَاتِلَ وَقَدْ دَعَوْتُكُمْ إِلَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَأَبَيْتُمْ إِلَّا الْخُرُوجَ فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ وَالصَّبْرِ إِذَا لَقِيتُمُ الْعَدُوَّ وَانْظُرُوا مَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ فَافْعَلُوهُ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ مَعَهُ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَهَكَذَا ذَكَرَهُ مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَكَذَلِكَ ذَكَرَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ شُيُوخِهِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَغَازِي وَهُوَ عَامٌّ فِي أَهْلِ الْمَغَازِي وَإِنْ كَانَ مُنْقَطِعًا وَكَتَبْنَاهُ مَوْصُولًا بِإِسْنَادٍ حَسَنٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , had his sword known as "Dhul-Fiqar" on the day of Badr. Ibn Abbas said, "It was he who saw a vision on the day of Uhud, which was that when the polytheists came to him on the day of Uhud, his vision was for him to stay in Madinah and fight them there. So, some people who did not participate in Badr said to him, 'O Messenger of Allah, should we go out with you to Uhud and fight them, hoping to attain the virtue that the people of Badr attained?' They continued urging him until he put on his armor. Then they regretted it and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, you decide. Your decision is final.' The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, 'It is not fitting for a prophet to take off his armor after wearing it until Allah passes judgment between him and his enemy.' He also said to them that day, before putting on his armor, 'I saw myself in an impregnable shield, so I gave it to Madinah. And I saw myself as a ram, so I gave it to the Ka'bah. And I saw that my sword Dhul-Fiqar had been sharpened, so I gave it to you all. And I saw a cow being slaughtered, so a cow it shall be, and by Allah, a cow is better.'"  

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَيْفَهُ ذَا الْفَقَارِ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ وَهُوَ الَّذِي رَأَى فِيهِ الرُّؤْيَا يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمَّا جَاءَهُ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ كَانَ رَأْيُهُ أَنْ يُقِيمَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَيُقَاتِلَهُمْ فِيهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ نَاسٌ لَمْ يَكُونُوا شَهِدُوا بَدْرًا تَخْرُجُ بِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِلَيْهِمْ نُقَاتِلُهُمْ بِأُحُدٍ وَرَجَوْا أَنْ يُصِيبُوا مِنَ الْفَضِيلَةِ مَا أَصَابَ أَهْلُ بَدْرٍ فَمَا زَالُوا بِهِ حَتَّى لَبِسَ أَدَاتَهُ ثُمَّ نَدِمُوا وَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَقِمْ فَالرَّأْيُ رَأْيُكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا يَنْبَغِي لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَضَعَ أَدَاتَهُ بَعْدَ أَنْ لَبِسَهَا حَتَّى يَحْكُمَ اللهُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ عَدُوِّهِ قَالَ وَكَانَ مِمَّا قَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ الْأَدَاةَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَنِّي فِي دِرْعٍ حَصِينَةٍ فَأَوَّلْتُهَا الْمَدِينَةَ وَإِنِّي مُرْدِفٌ كَبْشًا فَأَوَّلْتُهُ كَبْشَ الْكَتِيبَةِ وَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّ سَيْفِي ذَا الْفَقَارِ فُلَّ فَأَوَّلْتُهُ فَلًّا فِيكُمْ وَرَأَيْتُ بَقَرًا تُذْبَحُ فَبَقَرٌ وَاللهِ خَيْرٌ فَبَقَرٌ وَاللهِ خَيْرٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not choose between two matters except that he would take the easier one, as long as it was not sinful. And if it was sinful, he would distance himself the most from it. And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not seek revenge for himself unless the sanctity of Allah was violated, so he would take revenge for the sake of Allah. 13284 And Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, Ali ibn Isa informed us, Musa ibn Muhammad Al-Dhuhli informed us, Yahya ibn Yahya said: I read it to Malik, and he mentioned it except that he did not mention his saying "so he would take revenge for the sake of Allah."  

مَا خُيِّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي أَمْرَيْنِ إِلَّا أَخَذَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا مَا لَمْ يَكُنْ إِثْمًا فَإِذَا كَانَ إِثْمًا كَانَ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ مِنْهُ وَمَا انْتَقَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِنَفْسِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ تُنْتَهَكَ حُرْمَةُ اللهِ فَيَنْتَقِمُ لِلَّهِ بِهَا 13284 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عِيسَى ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الذُّهْلِيُّ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ فَذَكَرَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ قَوْلَهُ فَيَنْتَقِمُ لِلَّهِ بِهَا  

[Machine] In His saying, "And before it, you did not recite any scripture, nor did you inscribe it with your right hand." (Surah Al-Ankabut, 29:48). He (the Prophet Muhammad) said, "Allah's Messenger ﷺ did not read or write."  

فِي قَوْلِهِ ﷻ {وَمَا كُنْتَ تَتْلُو مِنْ قَبْلِهِ مِنْ كِتَابٍ وَلَا تَخُطُّهُ بِيَمِينِكَ} [العنكبوت 48] قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ وَلَا يَكْتُبُ  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said: 'We are an illiterate nation, we do not write or calculate. The month is like this and like this and like this,' and he folded his finger three times, meaning thirty. This Hadith is mentioned in Sahih Muslim from the narration of Shu'bah."  

النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّا أُمَّةٌ أُمِّيَّةٌ لَا نَكْتُبُ وَلَا نَحْسُبُ وَالشَّهْرُ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَقَبَضَ إِصْبَعَهُ وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا يَعْنِي ثَلَاثِينَ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ  

When the Prophet ﷺ intended to perform the ʿUmra he sent a person to the people of Mecca asking their permission to enter Mecca. They stipulated that he would not stay for more than three days and would not enter it except with sheathed arms and would not preach (Islam) to any of them. So ʿAli bin Abi- Talib started writing the treaty between them. He wrote, "This is what Muhammad, Apostle of Allah has agreed to." The (Meccans) said, "If we knew that you (Muhammad) are the Messenger of Allah, then we would not have prevented you and would have followed you. But write, 'This is what Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah has agreed to..' " On that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By Allah, I am Muhammad bin ʿAbdullah, and, by Allah, I am Apostle of 'Allah." Messenger of Allah ﷺ used not to write; so he asked ʿAli to erase the expression of Apostle of Allah. On that ʿAli said, "By Allah I will never erase it." Allah's Apostle said (to ʿAli), "Let me see the paper." When ʿAli showed him the paper, the Prophet ﷺ erased the expression with his own hand. When Messenger of Allah ﷺ had entered Mecca and three days had elapsed, the Meccans came to ʿAli and said, "Let your friend (i.e. the Prophet) quit Mecca." ʿAli informed Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it and Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Yes," and then he departed. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3184)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَعْتَمِرَ أَرْسَلَ إِلَى أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ يَسْتَأْذِنُهُمْ لِيَدْخُلَ مَكَّةَ فَاشْتَرَطُوا عَلَيْهِ أَنْ لَا يُقِيمَ بِهَا إِلَّا ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ وَلَا يَدْخُلَهَا إِلَّا بِجُلُبَّانِ السِّلَاحِ وَلَا يَدْعُو مِنْهُمْ أَحَدًا قَالَ فَأَخَذَ يَكْتُبُ الشَّرْطَ بَيْنَهُمْ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ كَتَبَ هَذَا مَا قَاضَى عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللهِ فَقَالُوا لَوْ عَلِمْنَا أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ لَمْ نَمْنَعْكَ وَلَبَايَعْنَاكَ وَلَكِنِ اكْتُبْ هَذَا مَا قَاضَى عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَقَالَ أَنَا وَاللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَأَنَا وَاللهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ قَالَ وَكَانَ لَا يَكْتُبُ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ امْحُ رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ لَا وَاللهِ لَا أَمْحَاهُ أَبَدًا قَالَ فَأَرِنِيهِ قَالَ فَأَرَاهُ إِيَّاهُ فَمَحَاهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ وَمَضَى الْأَجَلُ أَتَوْا عَلِيًّا ؓ فَقَالُوا مُرْ صَاحِبَكَ فَلْيَرْتَحِلْ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ عَلِيٌّ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ نَعَمْ أَرْتَحِلُ  

[Machine] About Al-Bara', he mentioned the incident and mentioned in it that the Prophet ﷺ said, "O Ali! Erase the name of Allah's Messenger." Ali said, "By Allah, I will never erase you." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took the book, even though he did not know how to write well. And in the narration of Yusuf ibn Abi Ishaq from his father from Al-Bara' in this story he said, "Show it to me, so I can see it." And he (the Prophet) erased it with his hand.  

عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ؓ فَذَكَرَ حَدِيثَ الْقَضِيَّةِ وَذَكَرَ فِيهِ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ امْحُ رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ وَاللهِ لَا أَمْحُوكَ أَبَدًا فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْكِتَابَ وَلَيْسَ يُحْسِنُ يَكْتُبُ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ يُوسُفَ بْنِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ فِي هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ قَالَ فَقَالَ أَرِنِيهِ فَأَرَاهُ إِيَّاهُ فَمَحَاهُ بِيَدِهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not die until he wrote and read. Mujalid mentioned that to me, and I mentioned it to Sha'bi, who said, "He is truthful. I heard from our companions mentioning that. This is a disconnected hadith with a chain of narrators that includes a group of weak and unknown narrators. And Allah knows best."  

مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى كَتَبَ وَقَرَأَ قَالَ مُجَالِدٌ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلشَّعْبِيِّ فَقَالَ قَدْ صَدَقَ قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا يَذْكُرُونَ ذَلِكَ فَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ مُنْقَطِعٌ وَفِي رُوَاتِهِ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنَ الضُّعَفَاءِ وَالْمَجْهُولِينَ وَاللهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ collected a poem, every verse except for one, advocating for what you desire, so that it would come true. Aisha said, "He did not say 'so that it may come true' in order to not ascribe it, causing it to become poetry." The sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "I only wrote it with this chain of narration in which some of them are unknown regarding their status. As for reciting it rhythmically, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say it."  

جَمَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْتَ شِعْرٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا بَيْتًا وَاحِدًا تَفَاءَلْ بِمَا تَهْوَى يَكُنْ فَلَقَلَّمَا يُقَالُ لِشَيْءٍ كَانَ إِلَّا تَحَقَّقَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ تَحَقُّقَا؛ لِئَلَّا يُعْرِبَهُ فَيَصِيرَ شِعْرًا قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ وَلَمْ أَكْتُبْهُ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ وَفِيهِمْ مَنْ يُجْهَلُ حَالُهُ وَأَمَّا الرَّجَزُ فَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُهُ  

The Prophet ﷺ went out on a cold morning while the Muhajirin (emigrants) and the Ansar were digging the trench. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "O Allah! The real goodness is the goodness of the Here after, so please forgive the Ansar and the Muhajirin." They replied, "We are those who have given the Pledge of allegiance to Muhammad for to observe Jihad as long as we remain alive." (Using translation from Bukhārī 7201)   

خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَدَاةٍ بَارِدَةٍ وَالْمُهَاجِرُونَ وَالْأَنْصَارُ يَحْفِرُونَ الْخَنْدَقَ فَقَالَ اللهُمَّ إِنَّ الْخَيْرَ خَيْرُ الْآخِرَةِ فَاغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ وَالْمُهَاجِرَةِ فَأَجَابُوهُ [البحر الرجز] نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا مُحَمَّدَا عَلَى الْجِهَادِ مَا بَقِينَا أَبَدَا  

I saw Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the day (of the battle) of the Trench carrying earth till the hair of his chest were covered with dust and he was a hairy man. He was reciting the following verses of ʿAbdullah (bin Rawaha): "O Allah, were it not for You, We would not have been guided, Nor would we have given in charity, nor prayed. So, bestow on us calmness, and when we meet the enemy. Then make our feet firm, for indeed, Yet if they want to put us in affliction, (i.e. want to fight against us) we would not (flee but withstand them)." The Prophet ﷺ used to raise his voice while reciting these verses. (See Hadith No. 432, Vol. 5). (Using translation from Bukhārī 3034)   

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ وَهُوَ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ حَتَّى وَارَى التُّرَابَ شَعْرَ صَدْرِهِ وَكَانَ رَجُلًا كَثِيرَ الشَّعْرِ وَهُوَ يَرْتَجِزُ بِرَجَزِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَوَاحَةَ ؓ اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا إِنَّ الْأَعْدَاءَ قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا وَإِنْ أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا يَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to carry sand with us on the Day of Ahzab, and then he mentioned it.  

وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ مَعَنَا يَوْمَ الْأَحْزَابِ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَهُ  

[Machine] We were with the Prophet ﷺ in a cave when his finger got injured and he said, "Are you nothing but a bleeding finger? I have faced hardships in the cause of Allah."  

كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي غَارٍ فَنُكِبَتْ أُصْبُعُهُ فَقَالَ هَلْ أَنْتِ إِلَّا أُصْبُعٌ دَمِيتِ وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ مَا لَقِيتِ  

[Machine] An Arab came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, what are the two essentials?" He replied, "Whoever dies without associating anything with Allah will enter Paradise, and whoever dies associating anything with Allah will enter the Hellfire."  

جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا الْمُوجِبَتَانِ؟ فَقَالَ مَنْ مَاتَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَنْ مَاتَ يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ النَّارَ  

Whenever a dead man in debt was brought to Messenger of Allah ﷺ he would ask, "Has he left anything to repay his debt?" If he was informed that he had left something to repay his debts, he would offer his funeral prayer, otherwise he would tell the Muslims to offer their friend's funeral prayer. When Allah made the Prophet ﷺ wealthy through conquests, he said, "I am more rightful than other believers to be the guardian of the believers, so if a Muslim dies while in debt, I am responsible for the repayment of his debt, and whoever leaves wealth (after his death) it will belong to his heirs. " (Using translation from Bukhārī 2298)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِالرَّجُلِ الْمَيِّتِ أَظُنُّهُ عَلَيْهِ الدَّيْنُ فَيَسْأَلُ هَلْ تَرَكَ لِدَيْنِهِ مِنْ قَضَاءٍ؟ فَإِنْ حُدِّثَ أَنَّهُ تَرَكَ وَفَاءً صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَإِلَّا قَالَ صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ فَلَمَّا فَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ الْفُتُوحَ قَالَ أَنَا أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ مَنْ تُوُفِّيَ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَعَلَيَّ قَضَاؤُهُ وَمَنْ تَرَكَ مَالًا فَلِوَرَثَتِهِ  

[Machine] In His saying {and not equal are the good deed and the bad. Repel with that which is better} [Surah Fussilat 34], Abu Jahal, may Allah curse him, used to harm the Prophet ﷺ and the Prophet ﷺ disliked seeing him. Allah ordered him with forgiveness and pardoning. He said: "So when you meet in battle those who disbelieve, strike [their] necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens" [Surah Muhammad 4]. It was revealed regarding the Prophet ﷺ and Abu Jahal when Abu Jahal insulted the Prophet ﷺ .  

فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {وَلَا تَسْتَوِي الْحَسَنَةُ وَلَا السَّيِّئَةُ ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ} [فصلت 34] وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ أَبَا جَهْلٍ لَعَنَهُ اللهُ كَانَ يُؤْذِي النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَهُ مُبْغِضًا يَكْرَهُ رُؤْيَتَهُ فَأَمَرَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى بِالْعَفْوِ وَالصَّفْحِ يَقُولُ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ فَإِذَا الَّذِي بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُ عَدَاوَةٌ يَعْنِي أَبَا جَهْلٍ كَأَنَّهُ وَلِيٌّ فِي الدُّنْيَا حَمِيمٌ لَكَ فِي النَّسَبِ الشَّفِيقُ عَلَيْكَ وَقَالَ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ السَّيِّئَةَ} [المؤمنون 96] نَزَلَتْ فِي النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَبِي جَهْلٍ حِينَ جَهِلَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

[Machine] In His saying, "Repel [evil] by that which is better" [Fussilat 34], Allah, may He be exalted, has commanded the believers to have patience when angry, forbearance when ignorant, and forgiveness when wronged. When they do that, Allah protects them from Satan, and their enemy submits to them as if he were a close friend. Al-Bukhari mentioned its wording in his commentary, and it is said that Ibn Abbas understood it to mean that if the Prophet ﷺ addressed him with it, it refers to him and others. Allah knows best.  

فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ} [فصلت 34] قَالَ أَمَرَ اللهُ سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِالصَّبِرِ عِنْدَ الْغَضَبِ وَالْحِلْمِ عِنْدَ الْجَهْلِ وَالْعَفْوِ عِنْدَ الْإِسَاءَةِ فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ عَصَمَهُمُ اللهُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ وَخَضَعَ لَهُمْ عَدُوُّهُمْ كَأَنَّهُ وَلِيٌّ حَمِيمٌ ذَكَرَ الْبُخَارِيُّ مَتْنَهُ فِي التَّرْجَمَةِ وَكَأَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ ذَهَبَ إِلَى أَنَّهُ وَإِنْ خَاطَبَ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَالْمُرَادُ بِهِ هُوَ وَغَيْرُهُ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] I met Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As and asked him to tell me about the description of the Messenger of Allah in the Torah. He said, "Indeed, he is described in the Torah with some of his qualities in the Furqan: O Prophet, indeed We have sent you as a witness and a bringer of good tidings and a warner." (Surah Al-Ahzab 45) "And a guardian for the illiterate." You are My slave and My Messenger, I named you the Trusting One. You are not rude, harsh, or loud in the markets. You do not repay evil with evil, but rather you forgive and pardon. I will not take your soul until I establish through you the crooked religion, and the people say, 'There is no god but Allah,' and open with it the eyes of the blind, the ears of the deaf, and the hearts of the closed." Ata ibn Yasar, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "Then I met Ka'b al-Habr and asked him, and they did not differ in anything except that Ka'b said, 'the blind eyes' and 'the closed hearts.' "  

لَقِيتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ ؓ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَخْبِرْنِي عَنْ صِفَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ فَقَالَ أَجَلْ وَاللهِ إِنَّهُ لَمَوْصُوفٌ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ بِبَعْضِ صِفَتِهِ فِي الْفُرْقَانِ {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ شَاهِدًا وَمُبَشِّرًا وَنَذِيرًا} [الأحزاب 45] وَحِرْزًا لِلْأُمِّيِّينَ أَنْتَ عَبْدِي وَرَسُولِي سَمَّيْتُكَ الْمُتَوَكِّلَ لَيْسَ بِفَظٍّ وَلَا غَلِيظٍ وَلَا صَخَّابٍ بِالْأَسْوَاقِ وَلَا يَدْفَعُ السَّيِّئَةَ بِالسَّيِّئَةِ وَلَكِنْ يَعْفُو وَيَغْفِرُ وَلَنْ أَقْبِضَهُ حَتَّى أُقِيمَ بِهِ الْمِلَّةَ الْعَوْجَاءَ وَأَنْ يَقُولُوا لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَفْتَحَ بِهِ أَعْيُنًا عُمْيًا وَآذَانًا صُمًّا وَقُلُوبًا غُلْفًا قَالَ عَطَاءُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ ثُمَّ لَقِيتُ كَعْبَ الْحَبْرَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَمَا اخْتَلَفَا فِي حَرْفٍ إِلَّا أَنَّ كَعْبًا يَقُولُ أَعْيُنًا عَمَوِيًّا وَقُلُوبًا غُلُوفًا وَآذَانًا صُمُومًا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was not obscene, nor did he engage in obscene behavior. He neither cursed nor insulted people in the marketplaces. He did not retaliate with evil when he was harmed, but rather, he forgave and pardoned.  

لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِفَاحِشٍ وَلَا مُتَفَحِّشٍ وَلَا سَخَّابٍ فِي الْأَسْوَاقِ وَلَا يَجْزِي بِالسَّيِّئَةِ مِثْلَهَا وَلَكِنْ يَعْفُو وَيَصْفَحُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never struck any of his wives, nor did he ever strike a servant, nor did he ever strike anything with his right hand, except when fighting in the cause of Allah. And he did not seek revenge for himself unless the limits of Allah were violated, then he sought revenge for it. And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was never given the choice between two matters, one of which was easier than the other, except that he chose the easier one, unless it was a sin. If it was a sin, then he was the furthest of people from it.  

مَا ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَحَدًا مِنْ نِسَائِهِ قَطُّ وَلَا ضَرَبَ خَادِمًا قَطُّ وَلَا ضَرَبَ شَيْئًا بِيَمِينِهِ قَطُّ إِلَّا أَنْ يُجَاهِدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَمَا نِيلَ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ قَطُّ فَانْتَقَمَ لِنَفْسِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ تُنْتَهَكَ مَحَارِمُ اللهِ فَيَنْتَقِمُ لَهَا وَمَا خُيِّرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ أَمْرَيْنِ قَطُّ أَحَدُهُمَا أَيْسَرُ مِنَ الآخَرِ إِلَّا اخْتَارَ أَيْسَرَهُمَا إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ إِثْمًا فَإِذَا كَانَ إِثْمًا كَانَ أَبْعَدَ النَّاسِ مِنْهُ  

[Machine] Abu Huraira said, "I have not seen anyone consult his companions more than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." Al-Shafi'i said, "And Allah said, 'And their affair is [determined by] consultation among themselves.'" [Surah Ash-Shura, verse 38]  

قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَكْثَرَ مُشَاوَرَةً لِأَصْحَابِهِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ ؓ وَقَالَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَى بَيْنَهُمْ} [الشورى 38]  

[Machine] Al-Hasan al-Basri said, "Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ did not need consultation, but he wanted to set an example for the rulers who would come after him." And Allah knows best.  

قَالَ الْحَسَنُ الْبَصْرِيُّ إِنْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَغَنِيًّا عَنِ الْمُشَاوَرَةِ وَلَكِنَّهُ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْتَنَّ بِذَلِكَ الْحُكَّامُ بَعْدَهُ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] Narrated by Umar ibn al-Khattab, he mentioned a narration about the Prophet's seclusion from his wives. He said, "I entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was lying on a mat with his Izar (lower garment) on and nothing else, and the mat had left its marks on his side. I looked inside the room of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and found a handful of barley like the capacity of a Sa' (a measure of volume) and its equal (in weight) of dates in a corner. I also found a water-skin hanging there. Thereupon, my eyes shed tears, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'What makes you weep, O Ibn al-Khattab?' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah! Why should I not weep? This mat has left its marks on your side, and I find nothing (in your room) but a handful of barley and its equal amount of dates, and this is the portion of Qaybar and Kisra in fruits and rivers (of Paradise), while you are the Messenger of Allah and the best among them.' Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'O Ibn al-Khattab, shouldn't you be satisfied that for us (Muslims) is the Hereafter and for them is this world?' I said, 'Indeed, yes.' And he mentioned the narration."  

حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فِي اعْتِزَالِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نِسَاءَهُ قَالَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ مُضْطَجِعٌ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ فَجَلَسْتُ فَإِذَا عَلَيْهِ إِزَارُهُ وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُهُ وَإِذَا الْحَصِيرُ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِهِ فَنَظَرْتُ فِي خِزَانَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِذَا أَنَا بِقَبْضَةٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ نَحْوِ الصَّاعِ وَمِثْلِهَا قَرَظٍ فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْغُرْفَةِ وَإِذَا أَفِيقٌ مُعَلَّقٌ قَالَ فَابْتَدَرَتْ عَيْنَايَ فَقَالَ مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ؟ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَمَالِي لَا أَبْكِي وَهَذَا الْحَصِيرُ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِكَ وَهَذِهِ خِزَانَتُكَ لَا أَرَى فِيهَا إِلَّا مَا أَرَى وَذَلِكَ قَيْصَرُ وَكِسْرَى فِي الثِّمَارِ وَالْأَنْهَارِ وَأَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ وَصَفْوَتُهُ وَهَذِهِ خِزَانَتُهُ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ أَلَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَكُونَ لَنَا الْآخِرَةُ وَلَهُمُ الدُّنْيَا؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I had the equivalent of a mountain of gold, it would not please me to have it with me for more than three nights, except for what I keep for debt."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ لِي مِثْلَ أُحُدٍ ذَهَبًا مَا سَرَّنِي أَنْ يَأْتِيَ عَلَيَّ ثَلَاثُ لَيَالٍ وَعِنْدِي مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا شَيْءٌ أَرْصُدُهُ لِدَيْنٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Allah, make the sustenance of the family of Muhammad sufficient."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْ رِزْقَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ قُوتًا  

I saw Abu Huraira point with his finger many a time and saying: By One in Whose Hand is the life of Abu Huraira, Allah's Apostle ﷺ could not eat to his fill and provide his family bread of wheat beyond three days successively until he left the world. (Using translation from Muslim 2976b)   

رَأَيْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يُشِيرُ بِأُصْبُعِهِ مِرَارًا يَقُولُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا شَبِعَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَهْلُهُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ تِبَاعًا مِنْ خُبْزِ حِنْطَةٍ حَتَّى فَارَقَ الدُّنْيَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not eat his fill for three consecutive days until he went on his way. Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz reported to us that Abu Al-Fadl ibn Ibrahim told us that Ahmad ibn Salamah told us that Ishaq ibn Ibrahim reported to us that Abu Mu'awiyah mentioned it in a similar manner and added that it was made from barley bread.  

مَا شَبِعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ تِبَاعًا حَتَّى مَضَى لِسَبِيلِهِ 13310 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو الْفَضْلِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أنبأ أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ فَذَكَرَهُ بِنَحْوِهِ وَزَادَ فِيهِ مُنْذُ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ وَقَالَ مِنْ خُبْزِ بُرٍّ  

[Machine] The narration is about the food that the family of Muhammad ﷺ had eaten from the time when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Medina, from dates, for three consecutive nights, until he passed away. Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us, Abu al-Fudail bin Ibrahim narrated, Ahmad bin Salamah narrated, Ishaq bin Ibrahim narrated, and Qutaybah bin Sa'id narrated from Jarir from Mansur about that.  

الْحَدِيثِ مَا شَبِعَ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ مُنْذُ قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ مِنْ طَعَامِ بُرٍّ ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ تِبَاعًا حَتَّى قُبِضَ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْفُضَيْلِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ جَرِيرٍ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ بِذَلِكَ  

[Machine] We, the family of Muhammad ﷺ , used to see the crescent moon pass by us repeatedly. We would only kindle fire for food, which was dates and water. However, the people of the dwellings of the Ansar would send the people from each house with their bowls to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so he would have milk from it. This is mentioned in the authentic Hadith narrated by Hisham and others, from Urwah.  

قَدْ كُنَّا آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ يَمُرُّ بِنَا الْهِلَالُ وَالْهِلَالُ وَالْهِلَالُ مَا نُوقِدُ بِنَارٍ لِطَعَامٍ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ التَّمْرُ وَالْمَاءُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ حَوْلَنَا أَهْلُ دُورٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَيَبْعَثُ أَهْلُ كُلِّ دَارٍ بِغَرِيزَةِ شَاتِهِمْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَكَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِنْ ذَلِكَ اللَّبَنُ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ هِشَامٍ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ  

We used to visit Anas bin Malik while his baker was standing (and baking). Anas would say, "Eat! I do not know that the Prophet ﷺ had ever seen well-baked bread till he met Allah, nor had he ever seen a roasted sheep with his own eyes." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5421)   

كُلُوا فَمَا أَعْلَمُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَى رَغِيفًا مُرَقَّقًا حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِاللهِ وَلَا رَأَى شَاةً سَمِيطًا بِعَيْنِهِ قَطُّ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ never ate from a table, nor did he eat thin bread, nor did he ever drink from a goblet. So it was said: O Abu Hamza, what did they used to eat on? He said: On a cloth.  

مَا أَكَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى مَائِدَةٍ قَطُّ وَلَا أَكَلَ خُبْزَ رِقَاقٍ قَطُّ وَلَا اصْطَبَغَ فِي سُكُرُجَةٍ قَطُّ قَالَ فَقِيلَ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ فَعَلَى أِيِّ شَيْءٍ كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ؟ قَالَ عَلَى السُّفَرِ  

[Machine] We used to raise sheep and then eat them after fifteen days. So I said, why do you do that? She laughed and said, the family of Muhammad ﷺ did not get full from continuous bread for three days until they met Allah ﷻ.  

لَقَدْ كُنَّا نُخْرِجُ الْكُرَاعَ بَعْدَ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ فَنَأْكُلُهُ فَقُلْتُ وَلِمَ تَفْعَلُونَ ذَلِكَ؟ فَضَحِكَتْ وَقَالَتْ مَا شَبِعَ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ مِنْ خُبْزٍ مَأْدُومٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِاللهِ ﷻ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has passed away, and there is nothing in my house that a liver-eating creature can eat except for a handful of barley in a sack that belongs to me. So, I ate from it until it lasted for a long time, and then I finished it.  

لَقَدْ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَا فِي بَيْتِي شَيْءٌ يَأْكُلُهُ ذُو كَبِدٍ إِلَّا شَطْرُ شَعِيرٍ فِي رَفٍّ لِي فَأَكَلْتُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى طَالَ عَلَيَّ فَكِلْتُهُ فَفَنِيَ  

[Machine] The bed of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was made of palm leaves.  

كَانَ فِرَاشُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَدَمٍ حَشْوُهُ لِيفٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I have been granted victory through fear, and I have been given comprehensive speech. While I was asleep, the keys to the treasures of the earth were brought to me and placed in my hand." Abu Huraira said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away, and you are disputing over it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نُصِرْتُ بِالرُّعْبِ وَأُعْطِيتُ جَوَامِعَ الْكَلِمِ وَبَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ إِذْ جِيءَ بِمَفَاتِيحِ خَزَائِنِ الْأَرْضِ فَوُضِعَتْ فِي يَدِيَّ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَدْ ذَهَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنْتُمْ تَنْثُلُونَهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I was granted victory through fear, and I was given treasures, and I was given the choice between staying to see what is opened for my Ummah and hastening, so I chose to hasten."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نُصِرْتُ بِالرُّعْبِ وَأُعْطِيتُ الْخَزَائِنَ وَخُيِّرْتُ بَيْنَ أَنْ أَبْقَى حَتَّى أَرَى مَا يُفْتَحُ عَلَى أُمَّتِي وَبَيْنَ التَّعْجِيلِ فَاخْتَرْتُ التَّعْجِيلَ
