Angels do not enter the house in which there is a picture or portraits. I came to 'A'isha and said to her: This is a news that I have received that Allah's Apostle ﷺ had said: Angels do not enter the house in which there is a picture or a dog, (and further added) whether she had heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ making a mention of it. She said: No (I did not hear this myself), but I narrate to you what I saw him doing. I bear testimony to the fact that he (the Holy Prophet) set out for an expedition. I took a carpet and screened the door with it. When he (the Holy Prophet) came back he saw that carpet and I perceived signs of disapproval on his face. He pulled it until it was torn or it was cut (into pieces) and he said: God has not commanded us to clothe stones and clay. We cut it (the curtain) and prepared two pillowa out of it by stuffing them with the fibre of date-palms and he (the Holy Prophet) did not find fault with it. (Using translation from Muslim 2106f)   

اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا تَدْخُلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ كَلْبٌ وَلَا تَمَاثِيلُ قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ ؓ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا إِنَّ هَذَا يُخْبِرُنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَا تَدْخُلُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ كَلْبٌ وَلَا تَمَاثِيلُ فَهَلْ سَمِعْتِ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَتْ لَا وَلَكِنْ سَأُحَدِّثُكُمْ مَا رَأَيْتُهُ فَعَلَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ فِي غَزَاتِهِ فَأَخَذْتُ نَمَطًا فَسَتَرْتُهُ عَلَى الْبَابِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ فَرَأَى النَّمَطَ عَرَفْتُ الْكَرَاهِيَةَ فِي وَجْهِهِ فَجَذَبَهُ حَتَّى هَتَكَهُ وَقَطَّعَهُ وَقَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَأْمُرْنَا أَنْ نَكْسُوَ الْحِجَارَةَ وَالطِّينَ قَالَتْ فَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ وِسَادَتَيْنِ وَحَشَوْتُهُمَا لِيفًا فَلَمْ يَعِبْ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , used to address his army until he reached the Farewell Sermon. He said, "I entrust you to Allah in regards to your religion, your trust, and the conclusion of your deeds." He once saw a man with patches on his clothes, so he faced the rising sun and said, "It is as if the world has presented itself to you three times. Have we become better off today than when we had nothing? You wear one garment in the morning and another in the evening, and you cover your houses just like the Ka'bah is covered." Abdullah bin Yazid said, "Shouldn't I cry when I have lived long enough to see you covering your houses just like the Ka'bah is covered?"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا شَيَّعَ جَيْشًا فَبَلَغَ عُقْبَةَ الْوَدَاعِ قَالَ أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دِينَكُمْ وَأَمَانَاتِكُمْ وَخَوَاتِيمَ أَعْمَالِكُمْ قَالَ فَرَأَى رَجُلًا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ قَدْ رَقَعَ بُرْدَةً لَهُ بِقِطْعَةٍ قَالَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ مَطْلِعَ الشَّمْسِ وَقَالَ هَكَذَا وَمَدَّ يَدَيْهِ وَمَدَّ عَفَّانُ يَدَيْهِ وَقَالَ تَطَالَعَتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ أَيْ أَقْبَلَتْ حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنْ يَقَعَ عَلَيْنَا ثُمَّ قَالَ أَنْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ خَيْرٌ أَمْ إِذَا غَدَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ قَصْعَةٌ وَرَاحَتْ أُخْرَى وَيَغْدُو أَحَدُكُمْ فِي حُلَّةٍ وَيَرُوحُ فِي أُخْرَى وَتَسْتُرُونَ بُيُوتَكُمْ كَمَا تُسْتَرُ الْكَعْبَةُ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ أَفَلَا أَبْكِي وَقَدْ بَقِيتُ حَتَّى تَسْتُرُونَ بُيُوتَكُمْ كَمَا تُسْتَرُ الْكَعْبَةُ  

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Abbas reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, everything has its honor, and the most honorable of gatherings is the one that is faced with the qibla (direction of prayer). Do not pray behind someone who is asleep or engaged in conversation. Kill the snake and scorpion, even if you are in the middle of prayer. Do not cover the podium with a garment." This hadith was also narrated by Hisham ibn Ziyad, from Muhammad ibn Ka'b, and it was narrated from another source, but the chain of narration is disconnected from Muhammad ibn Ka'b, and there is no established chain of narration for that.  

حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَرْفَعُ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَرَفًا وَأَشْرَفُ الْمَجَالِسِ مَا اسْتُقْبِلَ بِهِ الْقِبْلَةَ لَا تُصَلُّوا خَلْفَ نَائِمٍ وَلَا مُتَحَدِّثٍ وَاقْتُلُوا الْحَيَّةَ وَالْعَقْرَبَ وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ وَلَا تَسْتُرُوا الْجُدُرَ بِالثَّوْبِ وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَرُوِيَ ذَلِكَ أَيْضًا عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ أَبِي الْمِقْدَامِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ مُنْقَطِعٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَلَمْ يَثْبُتْ فِي ذَلِكَ إِسْنَادٌ  

[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ forbade the hanging of this specific curtain.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى أَنْ تُسْتَرَ الْجَدُرُ هَذَا مُنْقَطِعٌ  

[Machine] "You have done it, O Abu Abdullah. You have covered the walls. Then he left. In another narration, Ibn Umar called Abu Ayyub and saw a curtain on the wall of the house. Ibn Umar said, 'The women have prevailed over him.' Abu Ayyub replied, 'Who was I afraid for? I was not afraid for you. By Allah, I will not feed you anymore.' So he returned."  

فَعَلْتُمُوهَا يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَدْ سَتَرْتُمُ الْجُدُرَ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَفِي غَيْرِ هَذِهِ الرِّوَايَةِ قَالَ دَعَا ابْنُ عُمَرَ أَبَا أَيُّوبَ ؓ فَرَأَى فِي الْبَيْتِ سِتْرًا عَلَى الْجِدَارِ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ غَلَبَنَا عَلَيْهِ النِّسَاءُ فَقَالَ مَنْ كُنْتُ أَخْشَى عَلَيْهِ فَلَمْ أَكُنْ أَخْشَى عَلَيْكَ وَاللهِ لَا أَطْعَمُ لَكَ طَعَامًا فَرَجَعَ  

[Machine] Salman married Abu Qura Kandi. When he entered upon her, he said, "O this one, indeed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised me that if Allah decreed for you to get married, then the first thing you should gather upon is obedience." She replied, "Surely, the sitting of a person is obeyed." So he said to his people, "We shall pray and supplicate." They did so and he saw a covered house. He said, "What is wrong with your house? Is the Kaaba in Kanda?" They replied, "It is not wrong and the Kaaba has not been moved to Kanda." He said, "I will not enter until every curtain is taken apart except for the one on this door." It was narrated to us concerning the dislike of that from Umar Ibn Al-Khattab, and it is similar that it would be due to the extravagance in it. And Allah knows best.  

تَزَوَّجَ سَلْمَانُ إِلَى أَبِي قُرَّةَ الْكِنْدِيِّ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ يَا هَذِهِ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْصَانِي إِنْ قَضَى اللهُ لَكَ أَنْ تَزَوَّجَ فَيَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَا يَجْتَمِعَانِ عَلَيْهِ طَاعَةٌ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّكَ جَلَسْتَ مَجْلِسَ الْمَرْءِ يُطَاعُ أَمْرُهُ فَقَالَ لَهَا قُومِي نُصَلِّي وَنَدْعُو فَفَعَلَا فَرَأَى بَيْتًا مُسْتَتِرًا فَقَالَ مَا بَالُ بَيْتِكُمْ مَحْمُومٌ أَوَ تَحَوَّلَتِ الْكَعْبَةُ فِي كِنْدَةَ؟ فَقَالُوا لَيْسَ بِمَحْمُومٍ وَلَمْ تَتَحَوَّلِ الْكَعْبَةُ فِي كِنْدَةَ فَقَالَ لَا أَدْخُلُهُ حَتَّى تُهْتَكَ كُلُّ سِتْرٍ إِلَّا سِتْرًا عَلَى الْبَابِ هَذَا مُنْقَطِعٌ وَرُوِّينَا فِي كَرَاهِيَةِ ذَلِكَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ وَيُشْبِهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ ذَلِكَ لِمَا فِيهِ مِنَ السَّرَفِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ
