[Machine] He entered upon her while she was covered with a quilt that had a picture of statues on it. He then colored his face and leaned towards the quilt, tearing it with his hand. Then he said, "Indeed, the most severe punishment on the Day of Resurrection is for those who resemble the creation of Allah." Qatada said, "And Abu Hamid informed us, Muhammad bin Yahya narrated to us from Abu Al-Mughirah, from Al-Awza'i, from Az-Zuhri, from Al-Qasim bin Muhammad, from Aisha. She said, "And Muhammad bin Yahya narrated to us, Ya'qub bin Ibrahim bin Sa'd narrated to us from his father, from Ibn Shihab, from Al-Qasim bin Muhammad, from Aisha. They mentioned something similar, but did not mention him tearing it with his hand or the presence of statues."  

دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَهِيَ مُسْتَتِرَةٌ بِقِرَامٍ فِيهِ صُورَةُ تَمَاثِيلَ فَتَلَوَّنَ وَجْهُهُ ثُمَّ أَهْوَى إِلَى الْقِرَامِ فَهَتَكَهُ بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ عَذَابًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الَّذِينَ يُشَبِّهُونَ بِخَلْقِ اللهِ ﷻ ح قَالَ وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَامِدٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ثنا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ ثنا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ ح قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ثنا أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ بِمِثْلِهِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرَا بِيَدِهِ وَلَا تَمَاثِيلَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned from a journey and I hung my curtain on my door, which had horses with wings on it. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw it, he said, "Remove it, for it is from the authentic narration of Hisham."  

قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ سَفَرٍ فَعَلَّقْتُ عَلَى بَابِي قِرَامَ سِتْرٍ فِيهِ الْخَيْلُ ذَوَاتُ الْأَجْنِحَةِ قَالَتْ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ انْزِعِيهِ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ هِشَامٍ  

Safinah AbuAbdurRahman said that a man prepared food for Ali ibn AbuTalib who was his guest, and Fatimah said: I wish we had invited the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he had eaten with us. They invited him, and when he came he put his hands on the side-ports of the door, but when he saw the figured curtain which had been put at the end of the house, he went away. So Fatimah said to Ali: Follow him and see what turned him back. I (Ali) followed him and asked: What turned you back, Messenger of Allah? He replied: It is not fitting for me or for any Prophet to enter a house which is decorated. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3755)   

لَوْ دَعَوْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَكَلَ مَعَنَا فَدَعَوْهُ فَجَاءَ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى عِضَادَتَيِ الْبَابِ فَرَأَى الْقِرَامَ قَدْ ضُرِبَ مِنْ نَاحِيَةِ الْبَيْتِ فَرَجَعَ فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ لِعَلِيٍّ ؓ الْحَقْهُ فَانْظُرْ مَا رَجَعَهُ فَتَبِعْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا رَدَّكَ؟ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِي أَوْ لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ بَيْتًا مُزَوَّقًا  

[Machine] "Allah's messenger ﷺ said that it is not appropriate for a prophet to enter a luxuriously decorated house, as he said about Umm Salamah."  

اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَنْبَغِي لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ بَيْتًا مُزَوَّقًا كَذَا قَالَ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ؓ  

The Prophet ﷺ ordered Umar ibn al-Khattab who was in al-Batha' at the time of the conquest (of Makkah) to visit the Ka'bah and obliterate all images in it. The Prophet ﷺ did not enter it until all the images were obliterated. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4156)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمَرَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ زَمَنَ الْفَتْحِ وَهُوَ بِالْبَطْحَاءِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ الْكَعْبَةَ فَيَمْحُوَ كُلَّ صُورَةٍ فِيهَا فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى مُحِيَتْ كُلُّ صُورَةٍ فِيهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Angels do not enter a house that has a dog or statues that are not mentioned in the narration of Ibn Wahb."  

رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا تَدْخُلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ كَلْبٌ وَلَا صُورَةُ تَمَاثِيلَ لَيْسَ فِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ تَمَاثِيلُ  

[Machine] "To come to me and honor me, you and your companions, while he is a man among the greats of the Levant. Umar said to him, 'We do not enter your churches because of the images in them, meaning the statues.'"  

أَنْ تَجِيئَنِي وَتُكْرِمَنِي أَنْتَ وَأَصْحَابُكَ وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ عُظَمَاءِ الشَّامِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ ؓ إِنَّا لَا نَدْخُلُ كَنَائِسَكُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ الصُّوَرِ الَّتِي فِيهَا يَعْنِي التَّمَاثِيلَ  

[Machine] He entered until he broke the image, then he entered.  

أَنْ يَدْخُلَ حَتَّى كَسَرَ الصُّورَةَ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said: "Verily, those who make these images will be punished on the Day of Judgment. It will be said to them: 'Bring to life what you have created.'"  

النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَصْنَعُونَ هَذِهِ الصُّورَةَ يُعَذَّبُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يُقَالُ لَهُمْ أَحْيُوا مَا خَلَقْتُمْ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "Verily, the most severe punishment among people in the sight of Allah on the Day of Resurrection will be for the image-makers."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ عَذَابًا عِنْدَ اللهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الْمُصَوِّرُونَ  

[Machine] I entered with Abu Huraira to the house of Marwan and saw pictures in it. He said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Whoever creates any form of creation like My creation, let them create a spec or a grain or a barley corn.'"  

دَخَلْتُ مَعَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ دَارَ مَرْوَانَ فَرَأَى فِيهَا تَصَاوِيرَ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنْ ذَهَبَ يَخْلُقُ خَلْقًا كَخَلْقِي فَلْيَخْلُقُوا ذَرَّةً أَوْ لِيَخْلُقُوا حَبَّةً أَوْ لِيَخْلُقُوا شَعِيرَةً  

[Machine] Ibn Abbas, while giving people fatwas, did not attribute any of his fatwas to the Prophet ﷺ . A man came to him and said, "I am from the people of Iraq, and I make these drawings." Ibn Abbas said to him, "Come closer, come closer, two or three times." Then he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Whoever makes a picture in this world will be commanded on the Day of Resurrection to breathe life into it, and he will not be able to do so.'"  

ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ وَهُوَ يُفْتِي النَّاسَ لَا يُسْنِدُ شَيْئًا مِنْ فُتْيَاهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ إِنِّي مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ وَإِنِّي أُصَوِّرُ هَذِهِ التَّصَاوِيرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ ادْنُهُ ادْنُهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا فَدَنَا فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً فِي الدُّنْيَا كُلِّفَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَنْ يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا الرُّوحَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ  

[Machine] "Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ that he cursed the one who takes pictures."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ لَعَنَ الْمُصَوِّرَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , would not keep in his house any garment with patches on it without tearing it apart.  

رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَدَعُ فِي بَيْتِهِ ثَوْبًا فِيهِ تَصْلِيبٌ إِلَّا نَقَضَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever makes a picture (of a living being), he will be punished and will be commanded to breathe life into it, but he will not be able to breathe life into it. And whoever tells a false dream, he will be punished and will be commanded to tie between two hairs, but he will not be able to do so. And whoever listens to the conversation of a people who dislike him, molten lead will be poured into his ears on the Day of Resurrection." Sufyan said, "Nowadays, molten lead is what bullets are made of."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً عُذِّبَ وَكُلِّفَ أَنْ يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا الرُّوحَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ وَمَنْ تَحَلَّمَ كَاذِبًا عُذِّبَ وَكُلِّفَ أَنْ يَعْقِدَ بَيْنَ شَعِيرَتَيْنِ وَلَيْسَ بِعَاقِدٍ وَمَنِ اسْتَمَعَ إِلَى حَدِيثِ قَوْمٍ وَهُمْ لَهُ كَارِهُونَ صُبَّ فِي أُذُنِهِ الْآنُكُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ الْآنُكُ الرَّصَاصُ  

[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ has returned from a journey and I had covered the idols I had in sahwa (a place to rest) with a cloth. When he saw them, he tore them apart and said, "The severest punishment on the Day of Judgment will be for those who try to imitate the creation of Allah." She (the narrator) said, "So we cut it into pieces and made cushions or two cushions from it."  

ؓ تَقُولُ قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ سَفَرٍ وَقَدْ سَتَرْتُ بِقِرَامٍ عَلَى سَهْوَةٍ لِي فِيهِ تَمَاثِيلُ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ هَتَكَهُ وَقَالَ إِنَّ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ عَذَابًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الَّذِينَ يُضَاهُونَ بِخَلْقِ اللهِ قَالَتْ فَقَطَعْنَاهُ فَجَعَلْنَا مِنْهُ وِسَادَةً أَوْ وِسَادَتَيْنِ  

I then tore it and prepared two cushions out of that. A person who was then in that company and whose name was Rabi'a b. 'Ata, the freed slave of Banu Zuhra, asked: Did you hear Abu Mabammad making a mention of A'isha having stated that Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recline upon them? lbn al-Qasim said: No, but I heard Qasim b. Muhammad saying so. (Using translation from Muslim 2107m)   

زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا نَصَبَتْ سِتْرًا فِيهِ تَصَاوِيرُ فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَنَزَعَهُ فَقَطَعَهُ وِسَادَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ حِينَئِذٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ عَطَاءٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي زُهْرَةَ أَمَا سَمِعْتَ أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ يَذْكُرُ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَرْتَفِعُ عَلَيْهِمَا قَالَ ابْنُ الْقَاسِمِ لَا قَالَ لَكِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ يُرِيدُ الْقَاسِمَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي زَكَرِيَّا قَالَ ابْنُ الْقَاسِمِ لَكَأَنِّي قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ entered and there was a curtain with pictures on it. I noticed anger on his face, then he came and tore it down. I took it and made it into two armrests. He used to rest his elbows on them in the house.  

دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَإِذَا سِتْرٌ فِيهِ صُوَرٌ قَالَتْ فَعَرَفْتُ فِي وَجْهِهِ الْغَضَبَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَهَتَكَهُ قَالَتْ فَأَخَذْتُهُ فَجَعَلْتُهُ مِرْفَقَتَيْنِ قَالَتْ فَكَانَ يَرْتَفِقُ بِهِمَا فِي الْبَيْتِ ﷺ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Gabriel ﷺ came to me and said: I came to you last night and was prevented from entering simply because there were images at the door, for there was a decorated curtain with images on it in the house, and there was a dog in the house. So order the head of the image which is in the house to be cut off so that it resembles the form of a tree; order the curtain to be cut up and made into two cushions spread out on which people may tread; and order the dog to be turned out. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then did so. The dog belonged to al-Hasan or al-Husayn and was under their couch. So he ordered it to be turned out. Abu Dawud said: Al-Nadd means a thing on which clothes are placed like a couch. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4158)   

اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَتَانِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَتَيْتُكَ الْبَارِحَةَ فَلَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي مِنْ أَنْ أَدْخُلَ عَلَيْكَ الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي كُنْتَ فِيهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَدْ كَانَ فِي بَابِ الْبَيْتِ تِمْثَالُ رَجُلٍ وَسِتْرٌ فِيهِ تِمْثَالٌ وَكَانَ فِي الْبَيْتِ جِرْوٌ فَمُرْ بِرَأْسِ التِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي فِي الْبَيْتِ فَلْيُقْطَعْ وَمُرْ بِالسِّتْرِ فَلْيُقْطَعْ وَلْتَجْعَلْ مِنْهُ وِسَادَتَيْنِ تُبْتَذَلَانِ وَتُوطَآنِ وَمُرْ بِالْكَلْبِ فَلْيُخْرَجْ فَفَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا كَلْبٌ أَوْ جِرْوٌ لِلْحَسَنِ وَالْحُسَيْنِ ؓ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأُخْرِجَ  

[Machine] That Gabriel ﷺ came and greeted the Prophet ﷺ and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recognized his voice, so he said, "Enter." He said, "In the house, there is a curtain on the wall with statues. Cut off their heads and make them into cushions or mattresses and trample on them, for we do not enter a house with statues, and likewise..."  

أَنَّ جِبْرَائِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ جَاءَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَعَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَوْتَهُ فَقَالَ ادْخُلْ فَقَالَ إِنَّ فِي الْبَيْتِ سِتْرًا فِي الْحَائِطِ فِيهِ تَمَاثِيلُ فَاقْطَعُوا رُءُوسَهَا وَاجْعَلُوهُ بُسُطًا أَوْ وَسَائِدَ فَأَوْطِئُوهُ فَإِنَّا لَا نَدْخُلُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ تَمَاثِيلُ وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] "O father of Abbas, I am a person whose livelihood is only through the work of my hands. I create these images." Ibn Abbas said to him, "Lower your voice, lower your voice! I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: 'Whoever creates an image in this world will be ordered on the Day of Resurrection to breathe life into it, and he will not be able to.' He would have a severe penalty for this action, and he said, 'Woe to you! If you insist on creating, then restrict yourself to trees and that which does not have a soul.'"  

يَا أَبَا عَبَّاسٍ إِنِّي إِنْسَانٌ إِنَّمَا مَعِيشَتِي مِنْ صَنْعَةِ يَدِي إِنِّي أَصْنَعُ هَذِهِ التَّصَاوِيرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ادْنُهُ ادْنُهُ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً فِي الدُّنْيَا كُلِّفَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَنْ يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا الرُّوحَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ قَالَ فَرَبَا لَهَا الرَّجُلُ رَبْوَةً شَدِيدَةً وَقَالَ وَيْحَكَ إِنْ أَبَيْتَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَصْنَعَ فَعَلَيْكَ بِالشَّجَرِ وَمَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ رُوحٌ  

[Machine] The head is the image, so when the head is cut off, it is not in the form of an image.  

الصُّورَةُ الرَّأْسُ فَإِذَا قُطِعَ الرَّأْسُ فَلَيْسَ بِصُورَةٍ  

[Machine] They hated the erecting of statues, and they did not see any harm in what was stepped on by feet.  

كَانُوا يَكْرَهُونَ مَا نُصِبَ مِنَ التَّمَاثِيلِ نَصْبًا وَلَا يَرَوْنَ بِمَا وَطِئَتْهُ الْأَقْدَامُ بَأْسًا  

[Machine] Indeed, didn't you see how I burned it with fire? So when he came out, he said, "Take off this garment from me and cut the heads of these statues in the palace." So he cut them.  

لَا جَرَمَ أَلَمْ تَرَ كَيْفَ أُحَرِّقُهَا بِالنَّارِ؟ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قَالَ انْزِعُوا هَذَا الثَّوْبَ عَنِّي وَاقْطَعُوا رُءُوسَ هَذِهِ التَّصَاوِيرَ الَّتِي فِي الْكَانُونِ فَقَطَعَهَا  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: The angels do not enter the house which contains a picture. Busr (b. Sa'id), the transmitter of this tradition, said: Zaid (b. Khalid al-Juhani) then fell it and we paid him a sick visit. There was a curtain with a picture hanging at his door. I then said to 'Ubaid Allah al-Khawlani', the step-son of Maimunah, wife of the Prophet ﷺ: Did Zaid not tell us about pictures on the first day ? 'Ubaid Allah said: Did you not hear him when he said: Except a figure on a garment. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4155)   

عَنْ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَا تَدْخُلُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ صُورَةٌ قَالَ بُسْرٌ ثُمَّ اشْتَكَى زَيْدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ فَعُدْنَاهُ فَإِذَا عَلَى بَابِهِ سِتْرٌ فِيهِ صُورَةٌ فَقُلْتُ لِعُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ رَبِيبِ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَلَمْ يُخْبِرْنَا زَيْدٌ عَنِ الصُّورَةِ الْيَوْمَ الْأَوَّلَ؟ قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْهُ حِينَ قَالَ إِلَّا رَقْمٌ فِي ثَوْبٍ  

That Zaid bin Khalid Al-Juhani narrated to him something in the presence of Saʿid bin 'Ubaidullah Al- Khaulani who was brought up in the house of Maimuna the wife of the Prophet. Zaid narrated to them that Abu Talha said that the Prophet ﷺ said, "The Angels (of Mercy) do not enter a house wherein there is a picture." Busr said, "Later on Zaid bin Khalid fell ill and we called on him. To our surprise we saw a curtain decorated with pictures in his house. I said to Ubaidullah Al-Khaulani, "Didn't he (i.e. Zaid) tell us about the (prohibition of) pictures?" He said, "But he excepted the embroidery on garments. Didn't you hear him?" I said, "No." He said, "Yes, he did." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3226)   

أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيَّ صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَدَّثَهُ وَمَعَ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ الَّذِي كَانَ فِي حِجْرِ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حَدَّثَهُمَا زَيْدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ أَنَّ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا تَدْخُلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ صُورَةٌ قَالَ بُسْرٌ فَمَرِضَ زَيْدٌ فَعُدْنَاهُ فَإِذَا فِي بَيْتِهِ سِتْرٌ فِيهِ تَصَاوِيرُ فَقُلْتُ لِعُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ أَلَمْ يُحَدِّثْنَا؟ قَالَ إِنَّهُ قَدْ قَالَ إِلَّا رَقْمًا فِي الثَّوْبِ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْهُ؟ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ بَلَى فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ  

[Machine] In it, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Did you not say only what is written on the garment?" He said, "Yes, but it is more pleasing to me to say only what is written on a garment that could possibly refer to non-living images." It is in the narration of Abu Talha that is not clear, and in the previous reports there is clarification. Therefore, it is necessary to consider what we have narrated in this chapter based on what we have narrated in the previous chapter, and Allah knows best.  

فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ فَقَالَ سَهْلٌ أَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ رَقْمًا فِي الثَّوْبِ قَالَ بَلَى وَلَكِنَّهُ أَطْيَبُ لِنَفْسِي قَوْلُهُ إِلَّا رَقْمًا فِي ثَوْبٍ يَحْتَمِلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ الْمُرَادُ بِهِ صُورَةَ غَيْرِ ذَوَاتِ الْأَرْوَاحِ وَهُوَ فِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ غَيْرُ مُبَيَّنٍ وَفِي الْأَخْبَارِ قَبْلَ هَذَا الْبَابِ مُبَيَّنٌ فَالْوَاجِبُ حَمْلُ مَا رَوَيْنَا فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ عَلَى مَا رَوَيْنَا فِي الْبَابِ قَبْلَهُ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

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  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, if I were invited to partake in a sheep's shoulder, I would accept, and if I were given a forearm as a gift, I would take it." However, it does not mention the statement of Waki' regarding this.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ دُعِيتُ إِلَى كُرَاعٍ لَأَجَبْتُ وَلَوْ أُهْدِيَ إِلِيَّ ذِرَاعٌ لَقَبِلْتُ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ وَكِيعٌ قَوْلَهُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ  

Abu Talha said to Um Sulaim, "I have noticed feebleness in the voice of Messenger of Allah ﷺ which I think, is caused by hunger. Have you got any food?" She said, "Yes." She brought out some loaves of barley and took out a veil belonging to her, and wrapped the bread in part of it and put it under my arm and wrapped part of the veil round me and sent me to Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I went carrying it and found Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the Mosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "Has Abu Talha sent you?" I said, "Yes". He asked, "With some food? I said, "Yes" Allah's Apostle then said to the men around him, "Get up!" He set out (accompanied by them) and I went ahead of them till I reached Abu Talha and told him (of the Prophet's visit). Abu Talha said, "O Um Sulaim! Messenger of Allah ﷺ is coming with the people and we have no food to feed them." She said, "Allah and His Apostle know better." So Abu Talha went out to receive Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Allah's Apostle came along with Abu Talha. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Um Sulaim! Bring whatever you have." She brought the bread which Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered to be broken into pieces. Um Sulaim poured on them some butter from an oilskin. Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited what Allah wished him to recite, and then said, "Let ten persons come (to share the meal)." Ten persons were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he again said, "Let another ten do the same." They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he again said, '"'Let another ten persons (do the same.)" They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he said, "Let another ten persons come." In short, all of them ate their fill, and they were seventy or eighty men. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3578)

A tailor invited the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to a meal which he had prepared. Anas said: I went along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ barley bread and soup containing pumpkin and dried sliced meat. Anas said: I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ going after the pumpkin round the dish, so I have always liked pumpkins since that day. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3782)   

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ؓ يَقُولُ إِنَّ خَيَّاطًا دَعَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لِطَعَامٍ صَنَعَهُ لَهُ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَذَهَبْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى ذَلِكَ الطَّعَامِ فَقَرَّبَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ خُبْزًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ وَمَرَقًا فِيهِ دُبَّاءٌ وَقَدِيدٌ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَتْبَعُ الدُّبَّاءَ مِنْ حَوَالَيِ الصَّحْفَةِ فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أُحِبُّ الدُّبَّاءَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ أَبِي الْحُنَيْنِ بَعْدَ يَوْمَئِذٍ  

[Machine] "Tahir al-Faqih, I am Abu Hamid ibn Bilal al-Bazzaz, from Abbas al-Duri, from Abu Asim al-Nabil, from Hanzala ibn Abi Sufyan, from Sa'id ibn Minaa, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, that the Prophet ﷺ said to his companions, 'Stand up, for Jabir has made a wall.' Abu Al-Fadl said, 'And he is al-Duri.' And the meaning of this hadith is that the Prophet ﷺ spoke in Persian, saying, 'A wedding wall.'"  

طَاهِرٍ الْفَقِيهُ أنا أَبُو حَامِدِ بْنُ بِلَالٍ الْبَزَّازُ نا عَبَّاسٌ الدُّورِيُّ نا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ النَّبِيلُ نا حَنْظَلَةُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ نا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مِينَاءَ نا جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ ؓ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ قُومُوا فَقَدْ صَنَعَ جَابِرٌ سُورًا قَالَ أَبُو الْفَضْلِ وَهُوَ الدُّورِيُّ وَإِنَّمَا يُرَادُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ تَكَلَّمَ بِالْفَارِسِيَّةِ سُوَرٌ عُرْسٌ  

[Machine] So I said to my family, "Do you have anything so we can invite the Prophet ﷺ ?" They said, "We only have a measure of barley." So I told them to grind it. And I slaughtered a sheep that we had. Then I went off to be by myself and I set out to invite the Prophet ﷺ . I said, "O Messenger of Allah, we have a measure of barley and we have a sheep or a goat, so we slaughtered it." The Prophet ﷺ raised his voice to his companions and said, "Get up, for Jabir has made a feast." So I went in front of the people and I came to my wife and she said to me, "Woe to you, and woe to me, do not embarrass me today in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered and said, "Put your container down." So they put the meat in it and he poured water over it and he blessed it. Then he said, "Look, a loaf is baking for you." So the loaf started to bake. Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "Enter ten by ten." So he started to scoop for them and they started eating until he came to the last of them. Indeed, we were refilling our container and our dough was baking just as it was, and our pot was still covered just as it was.  

فَقُلْتُ لِأَهْلِي هَلْ عِنْدَكِ شَيْءٌ حَتَّى نَدْعُوَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ؟ قَالَتْ مَا عِنْدَنَا إِلَّا صَاعٌ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا اطْحَنِيهِ قَالَ وَذَبَحْتُ عَنَاقًا عِنْدَنَا قَالَ فَفَرَغْتُ إِلَى فَرَاغِي فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَدْعُو النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ عِنْدَنَا صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ وَعِنْدَنَا عَنَاقٌ أَوْ شَاةٌ فَذَبَحْنَاهَا قَالَ فَصَاحَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ قُومُوا فَقَدْ صَنَعَ جَابِرٌ سُورًا قَالَ فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَمَامَ الْقَوْمِ فَأَتَيْتُ امْرَأَتِي فَقَالَتْ بِكَ وَبِكَ لَا تَفْضَحْنِي الْيَوْمَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ ضَعُوا بُرْمَتَكُمْ قَالَ فَوَضَعُوا فِيهَا اللَّحْمَ فَبَسَقَ فِيهَا وَبَارَكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ انْظُرُوا خَابِزَةً تَخْبِزُ لَكُمْ قَالَ فَجَعَلَتِ الْخَابِزَةُ تَخْبِزُ قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ادْخُلُوا عَشَرَةً عَشَرَةً قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يَغْرِفُ لَهُمْ فَيَأْكُلُونَ حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَى آخِرِهِمْ وَإِنَّا لَنَقْدَحُ فِي بُرْمَتِنَا وَإِنَّ عَجِينَنَا لَيُخْبَزُ كَمَا هُوَ وَإِنَّ قِدْرَنَا لَتَغِطُّ كَمَا هِيَ  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by his father while riding a white mule, so he went to him and took hold of its reins. He said, "Dismount." So he dismounted and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ brought dates and dumplings and began to eat from them, then he placed the pits on the back of his index finger or middle finger or on both of them, then he threw them away. He said, "Food was prepared for him and he began to eat from it, then he brought him a cup of milk or dumplings and he drank from it, then he gave it to the one on his right. He wanted to go or to set out, so he said, "Supplicate for us." So he said, "O Allah! Bless them in what You have provided for them, forgive them, and have mercy on them."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِأَبِيهِ وَهُوَ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ لَهُ بَيْضَاءَ فَأَتَاهُ فَأَخَذَ بِلِجَامِهَا فَقَالَ انْزِلْ عَلَيَّ قَالَ فَنَزَلَ عَلَيْنَا فَأَتَى بِتَمْرٍ وَسَوِيقٍ فَجَعَلَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ يَضَعُ النوَى عَلَى ظَهْرِ السَّبَّابَةِ أَوِ الْوُسْطَى أَوْ عَلَيْهِمَا جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ يَرْمِي بِهِ قَالَ وَصُنِعَ لَهُ طَعَامٌ فَجَعَلَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ بِقَدَحٍ مِنْ لَبَنٍ أَوْ سَوِيقٍ فَشَرِبَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ أَعْطَاهُ الَّذِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَسِيرَ أَوْ يَرْتَحِلَ فَقَالَ ادْعُ لَنَا فَقَالَ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِيمَا رَزَقْتَهُمْ وَاغْفِرْ لَهُمْ وَارْحَمْهُمْ  

[Machine] Abbas says, "Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ forbade eating the food of the competitive ones." Abu Dawud said, "More than."  

عَبَّاسٍ ؓ يَقُولُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَهَى عَنْ طَعَامِ الْمُتَبَارِينَ أَنْ يُؤْكَلَ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ أَكْثَرُ مَنْ  

[Machine] After this verse was revealed, someone among the people abrogated the verse regarding the prohibition of entering the houses without permission and said, "There is no blame upon you for entering your own houses." Until the words, "or your own relatives' houses" (Quran 24:61). This is what he meant to say. It means that it is permissible to enter the houses mentioned in that verse. Then he (the narrator) said, a rich man would invite a person from his family for a meal. The person would say, "There is no blame upon me for eating from it." (Thinking that the verse permits this). And the person affected would say, "The poor have more of a right to it than I do." So it became permissible for them to eat from the food on which Allah's name was mentioned and from the food of the people of the Book. Az-Zuhri mentioned from Ubaydullah bin Abdullah bin Utbah regarding the verse, "There is no blame upon the blind." (Quran 24:61) He said, "When the Muslims used to go out for a fight, they would leave their families behind. They would hand over the keys of their houses to them and say, 'We have made it permissible for you to eat from our houses.' But they would feel hesitant and say, 'We will not enter them' while they were absent. Then this verse was revealed, giving them permission to do so.  

عِنْدَ أَحَدٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ بَعْدَمَا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ فَنَسَخَ ذَلِكَ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي فِي النُّورِ فَقَالَ {لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ تَأْكُلُوا مِنْ بُيُوتِكُمْ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {أَشْتَاتًا} [النور 61] كَذَا قَالَ يُرِيدُ قَوْلَهُ {لَيْسَ عَلَى الْأَعْمَى حَرَجٌ وَلَا عَلَى الْأَعْرَجِ حَرَجٌ وَلَا عَلَى الْمَرِيضِ حَرَجٌ وَلَا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَنْ تَأْكُلُوا مِنْ بُيُوتِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ آبَائِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ أُمَّهَاتِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ إِخْوَانِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ أَخَوَاتِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ أَعْمَامِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ عَمَّاتِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ أَخْوَالِكُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتِ خَالِاتِكُمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكْتُمْ مَفَاتِحَهُ أَوْ صَدِيقِكُمْ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ تَأْكُلُوا جَمِيعًا أَوْ أَشْتَاتًا} [النور 61] قَالَ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ الْغَنِيُّ يَدْعُو الرَّجُلَ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ إِلَى الطَّعَامِ قَالَ إِنِّي لَا جُنَاحَ أَنْ آكُلَ مِنْهُ قَالَ وَالتَّجَنُّحُ الْحَرَجُ وَيَقُولُ الْمِسْكِينُ أَحَقُّ بِهِ مِنِّي فَأَحَلَّ فِي ذَلِكَ أَنْ يَأْكُلُوا مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ وَأَحَلَّ طَعَامَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَذَكَرَ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ فِي قَوْلِهِ {لَيْسَ عَلَى الْأَعْمَى حَرَجٌ} [النور 61] الْآيَةَ إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمِينَ كَانُوا إِذَا غَزَوْا خَلَّفُوا زَمْنَاهُمْ فِي بُيُوتِهِمْ فَيَدْفَعُوا إِلَيْهِمْ مَفَاتِيحَ أَبْوَابِهِمْ وَيَقُولُوا قَدْ أَحْلَلْنَا لَكُمْ أَنْ تَأْكُلُوا مِمَّا فِي بُيُوتِنَا فَكَانُوا يَتَحَرَّجُونَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ يَقُولُونَ لَا نَدْخُلُهَا وَهُمْ غُيَّبٌ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ رُخْصَةً لَهُمْ هَكَذَا  

[Machine] There were people in the past who were blind and disabled, and they were in need of someone to guide them to their homes. If they didn't find food in their homes, they would go with them to the houses of their fathers and mothers, and anyone who accompanied them from the houses disliked being accompanied. They would say that they were taken to houses that were not their own. So Allah revealed in that (verse), "There is no sin on you" [2:236]. In that, He permitted them to eat from wherever they found (food). The Sheikh said, it means if the owner allows it. And they used to feel embarrassed with the owner's consent, so the embarrassment was removed if it was with his consent. And Allah knows best.  

كَانَ رِجَالٌ زَمْنَى عُمْيٌ وَعُرْجٌ أُولِي حَاجَةٍ يَسْتَتْبِعُهُمْ رِجَالٌ إِلَى بُيُوتِهِمْ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدُوا لَهُمْ فِي بُيُوتِهِمْ طَعَامًا ذَهَبُوا بِهِمْ إِلَى بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ وَبُيُوتِ أُمَّهَاتِهِمْ وَمَنْ عُدَّ مَعَهُمْ مِنَ الْبُيُوتِ فَكَرِهَ ذَلِكَ الْمُسْتَتْبَعُونَ وَقَالُوا يَذْهَبُونَ بِنَا إِلَى بُيُوتٍ غَيْرِ بُيُوتِهِمْ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ فِي ذَلِكَ {لَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكُمْ} [البقرة 236] فِي ذَلِكَ وَأَحَلَّ لَهُمُ الطَّعَامَ مِنْ حَيْثُ وَجَدُوهُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ يَعْنِي إِذَا رَضِيَ بِهِ مَالِكُهُ وَكَانُوا يَتَحَرَّجُونَ مَعَ رِضَا الْمَالِكِ بِهِ فَرُفِعَ الْحَرَجُ إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ بِرِضَاهُ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

A companion of the Prophet ﷺ reported him as saying: When two people come together to issue an invitation, accept that of the one whose door is nearer in neighbourhood, but if one of them comes before the other accept the invitation of the one who comes first. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3756)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا اجْتَمَعَ الدَّاعِيَانِ فَأَجِبْ أَقْرَبَهُمَا بَابًا فَإِنَّ أَقْرَبَهُمَا بَابًا أَقْرَبُهُمَا جِوَارًا وَإِنْ سَبَقَ أَحَدُهُمَا فَأَجِبِ الَّذِي سَبَقَ  

[Machine] In the Torah, it is mentioned that the blessing of food is ablution before and after it. I mentioned this to the Prophet ﷺ and he said that the blessing of food is ablution before and after it. Qais bin Rabi'ah is not strong and there is no evidence in the hadith about washing the hands before eating.  

فِي التَّوْرَاةِ إِنَّ بَرَكَةَ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَهُ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ بَرَكَةُ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَهُ وَبَعْدَهُ قَيْسُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ غَيْرُ قَوِيٍّ وَلَمْ يَثْبُتْ فِي غَسْلِ الْيَدِ قَبْلَ الطَّعَامِ حَدِيثٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever goes to bed with a container of water in his hand and something happens to him, he should not blame anyone but himself." This was narrated by 'Uqail from Ibn Shihab from 'Ubaydullah bin 'Abdullah from Abu Sa'id.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ بَاتَ وَفِي يَدِهِ غَمَرٌ فَأَصَابَهُ شَيْءٌ فَلَا يَلُومَنَّ إِلَّا نَفْسَهُ وَرَوَاهُ عُقَيْلٌ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever sleeps with impurity in his hand and does not wash it, and something happens to him, he has no one to blame but himself." And the hadith of Suwaid bin Nu'man regarding the rinsing of the mouth of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and their rinsing after eating Sawiq is evidence for this matter. It has already been mentioned in the Book of Taharah (purification). The hadith regarding washing hands after eating is good if it is done before eating, and it is weak if it is done after eating. And in the authentic hadith narrated by Ibn Abbas, the Prophet ﷺ went to the restroom and then came back, and food was brought to him. It was said, "O Messenger of Allah, shouldn't you perform ablution?" He said, "I haven't prayed, so I will perform ablution."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ نَامَ وَفِي يَدِهِ غَمَرٌ وَلَمْ يَغْسِلْهُ فَأَصَابَهُ شَيْءٌ فَلَا يَلُومَنَّ إِلَّا نَفْسَهُ وَحَدِيثُ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ فِي مَضْمَضَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَضْمَضَتِهِمْ بَعْدَ أَكْلِهِمُ السَّوِيقَ دَلِيلٌ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ وَقَدْ مَضَى فِي كِتَابِ الطَّهَارَةِ فَالْحَدِيثُ فِي غَسْلِ الْيَدِ بَعْدَ الطَّعَامِ حَسَنٌ وَهُوَ قَبْلَ الطَّعَامِ ضَعِيفٌ وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ الصَّحِيحِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَتَى الْخَلَاءَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأُتِيَ بِطَعَامٍ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَا تَتَوَضَّأْ؟ فَقَالَ لَمْ أُصَلِّ فَأَتَوَضَّأَ  

When a man enters his house and mention Allah’s name on entering and on his food, the devil says: You have no place to spend the night and no evening meal; but when he enters without mentioning Allah’s name on entering, the devil says: You have found a place to spend the night, and when he does not mention Allah’s name at his food, he says: You have found a place to spend the night and an evening meal. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3765)   

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِذَا دَخَلَ الرَّجُلُ بَيْتَهُ فَذَكَرَ اللهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ وَعِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ لَا مَبِيتَ لَكُمْ وَلَا عَشَاءَ وَإِذَا دَخَلَ فَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ فَإِذَا لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللهَ عِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ قَالَ أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ وَالْعَشَاءَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to eat with six of his companions. Then a hungry Bedouin came and he fed him with two morsels. The Prophet ﷺ said, "If he had mentioned the name of Allah, it would have sufficed you all. So when any of you eats, let him mention the name of Allah. And if he forgets to mention it at the beginning, then let him say 'Bismillah' (in the name of Allah) at the beginning and at the end." This is the wording of the Hadith of Ruwah ibn 'Ubada.  

رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَأْكُلُ فِي سِتَّةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ جَائِعٌ فَأَكَلَهُ بِلُقْمَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَوْ ذَكَرَ اسْمَ اللهِ لَكَفَاكُمْ فَإِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ فَإِنْ نَسِيَ أَنْ يُسَمِّيَ فِي أَوَّلِهِ فَلْيَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللهِ أَوَّلَهُ وَآخِرَهُ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ رَوْحِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When one of you eats, let him eat with his right hand, and when he drinks, let him drink with his right hand. Indeed, Satan eats with his left hand and drinks with his left hand."  

رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِيَمِينِهِ وَإِذَا شَرِبَ فَلْيَشْرَبْ بِيَمِينِهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ وَيَشْرَبُ بِشِمَالِهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When one of you eats, let him eat with his right hand, and when one of you drinks, let him drink with his right hand. Verily, Shaytan eats and drinks with his left hand." Abdul Razzaq said that Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah reported to Ma'mar, "Verily, Az-Zuhri narrated to me from Abu Bakr ibn 'Ubaydullah, from Ibn 'Umar, so Ma'mar said to him, 'Verily, Az-Zuhri used to mention the narration from the group, so perhaps he narrated it from both of them.' The Shaykh said, 'This is plausible, for he may have heard it from both of them.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِيَمِينِهِ وَإِذَا شَرِبَ فَلْيَشْرَبْ بِيَمِينِهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ بِشِمَالِهِ قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ لِمَعْمَرٍ فَإِنَّ الزُّهْرِيَّ حَدَّثَنِي بِهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَعْمَرٌ فَإِنَّ الزُّهْرِيَّ كَانَ يَذْكُرُ الْحَدِيثَ عَنِ النَّفْرِ فَلَعَلَّهُ عَنْهُمَا جَمِيعًا قَالَ الشَّيْخُ هَذَا مُحْتَمَلٌ فَقَدْ
