Once we were in the house of Abu Musa who presented a meal containing cooked chicken. A man from the tribe of Bani Taim Allah with red complexion as if he were from the Byzantine war prisoners, was present. Abu Musa invited him to share the meal but he (apologised) saying. "I saw chickens eating dirty things and so I have had a strong aversion to eating them, and have taken an oath that I will not eat chickens." Abu Musa said, "Come along, I will tell you about this matter (i.e. how to cancel one's oath). I went to the Prophet ﷺ in the company of a group of Al-Ashariyin, asked him to provide us with means of conveyance. He said, 'By Allah, I will not provide you with any means of conveyance and I have nothing to make you ride on.' Then some camels as booty were brought to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he asked for us saying. 'Where are the group of Al-Ashʿariyun?' Then he ordered that we should be given five camels with white humps. When we set out we said, 'What have we done? We will never be blessed (with what we have been given).' So, we returned to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'We asked you to provide us with means of conveyance, but you took an oath that you would not provide us with any means of conveyance. Did you forget (your oath when you gave us the camels)? He replied. 'I have not provided you with means of conveyance, but Allah has provided you with it, and by Allah, Allah willing, if ever I take an oath to do something, and later on I find that it is more beneficial to do something different, I will do the thing which is better, and give expiation for my oath."

كُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي مُوسَى فَأُتِيَ ذَكَرَ دَجَاجَةً وَعِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَيْمِ اللَّهِ أَحْمَرُ كَأَنَّهُ مِنَ الْمَوَالِي فَدَعَاهُ لِلطَّعَامِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُهُ يَأْكُلُ شَيْئًا فَقَذِرْتُهُ فَحَلَفْتُ لاَ آكُلُ فَقَالَ هَلُمَّ فَلأُحَدِّثْكُمْ عَنْ ذَاكَ إِنِّي أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَأُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِنَهْبِ إِبِلٍ فَسَأَلَ عَنَّا فَقَالَ أَيْنَ النَّفَرُ الأَشْعَرِيُّونَ فَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِخَمْسِ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قُلْنَا مَا صَنَعْنَا لاَ يُبَارَكُ لَنَا فَرَجَعْنَا إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْنَا إِنَّا سَأَلْنَاكَ أَنْ تَحْمِلَنَا فَحَلَفْتَ أَنْ لاَ تَحْمِلَنَا أَفَنَسِيتَ قَالَ لَسْتُ أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ حَمَلَكُمْ وَإِنِّي وَاللَّهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لاَ أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلاَّ أَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَتَحَلَّلْتُهَا

I went to the Prophet ﷺ along with a group of Al-Ashʿariyin in order to request him to provide us with mounts. He said, "By Allah, I will not provide you with mounts and I haven't got anything to mount you on." Then we stayed there as long as Allah wished us to stay, and then three very nice looking she-camels were brought to him and he made us ride them. When we left, we, or some of us, said, "By Allah, we will not be blessed, as we came to the Prophet ﷺ asking him for mounts, and he swore that he would not give us any mounts but then he did give us. So let us go back to the Prophet ﷺ and remind him (of his oath)." When we returned to him (and reminded him of the fact), he said, "I did not give you mounts, but it is Allah Who gave you. By Allah, Allah willing, if I ever take an oath to do something and then I find something else than the first, I will make expiation for my oath and do the thing which is better (or do something which is better and give the expiation for my oath).

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي رَهْطٍ مِنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ أَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ لَبِثْنَا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ نَلْبَثَ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِثَلاَثِ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَحَمَلَنَا عَلَيْهَا فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قُلْنَا أَوْ قَالَ بَعْضُنَا وَاللَّهِ لاَ يُبَارَكُ لَنَا أَتَيْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَحَلَفَ أَنْ لاَ يَحْمِلَنَا ثُمَّ حَمَلَنَا فَارْجِعُوا بِنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَنُذَكِّرُهُ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ بَلِ اللَّهُ حَمَلَكُمْ وَإِنِّي وَاللَّهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لاَ أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلاَّ كَفَّرْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي وَأَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ أَوْ أَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَكَفَّرْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي

There was a relation of love and brotherhood between this tribe of Jarm and Al-Ashʿariyin. Once we were with Abu Musa Al-Ashʿari, and then a meal containing chicken was brought to Abu Musa, and there was present, a man from the tribe of Taimillah who was of red complexion as if he were from non-Arab freed slaves. Abu Musa invited him to the meal. He said, "I have seen chickens eating dirty things, so I deemed it filthy and took an oath that I would never eat chicken." On that, Abu Musa said, "Get up, I will narrate to you about that. Once a group of the Ashʿariyin and I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him to provide us with mounts; he said, 'By Allah, I will never give you any mounts nor do I have anything to mount you on.' Then a few camels of war booty were brought to Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he asked about us, saying, 'Where are the Ash-'ariyin?' He then ordered five nice camels to be given to us, and when we had departed, we said, 'What have we done? Messenger of Allah ﷺ had taken the oath not to give us any mounts, and that he had nothing to mount us on, and later he gave us that we might ride? Did we take advantage of the fact that Messenger of Allah ﷺ had forgotten his oath? By Allah, we will never succeed.' So we went back to him and said to him, 'We came to you to give us mounts, and you took an oath that you would not give us any mounts and that you had nothing to mount us on.' On that he said, 'I did not provide you with mounts, but Allah did. By Allah, if I take an oath to do something, and then find something else better than it, I do that which is better and make expiation for the dissolution of the oath.' "

I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with a group of people from (the tribe of) Al-Ashʿari, asking for mounts. The Prophet ﷺ said, "By Allah, I will not give you anything to ride, and I have nothing to mount you on." We stayed there as long as Allah wished, and after that, some camels were brought to the Prophet and he ordered that we be given three camels. When we set out, some of us said to others, "Allah will not bless us, as we all went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ asking him for mounts, and although he had sworn that he would not give us mounts, he did give us." So we returned to the Prophet; and mentioned that to him. He said, "I have not provided you with mounts, but Allah has. By Allah, Allah willing, if I ever take an oath, and then see that another is better than the first, I make expiration for my (dissolved) oath, and do what is better and make expiration."

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي رَهْطٍ مِنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ أَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَحْمِلُكُمْ مَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ ثُمَّ لَبِثْنَا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَأُتِيَ بِإِبِلٍ فَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِثَلاَثَةِ ذَوْدٍ فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ لاَ يُبَارِكُ اللَّهُ لَنَا أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَحَلَفَ أَنْ لاَ يَحْمِلَنَا فَحَمَلَنَا فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَأَتَيْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ بَلِ اللَّهُ حَمَلَكُمْ إِنِّي وَاللَّهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لاَ أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلاَّ كَفَّرْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي وَأَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَكَفَّرْتُ

There were good relations and brotherhood between this tribe of Jurm and the Ashʿariyyin. Once, while we were sitting with Abu Musa Al-Ashʿari, there was brought to him a meal which contained chicken meat, and there was sitting beside him, a man from the tribe of Bani Taimul-lah who looked like one of the Mawali. Abu Musa invited the man to eat but the man said, "I have seen chicken eating some dirty things, and I have taken an oath not to eat chicken." Abu Musa said to him, "Come along, let me tell you something in this regard. Once I went to the Prophet ﷺ with a few men from Ashʿariyyin and we asked him for mounts. The Prophet ﷺ said, By Allah, I will not mount you on anything; besides I do not have anything to mount you on.' Then a few camels from the war booty were brought to the Prophet, and he asked about us, saying, 'Where are the group of Ashʿariyyin?' So he ordered for five fat camels to be given to us and then we set out. We said, 'What have we done? Messenger of Allah ﷺ took an oath that he would not give us anything to ride and that he had nothing for us to ride, yet he provided us with mounts. We made Messenger of Allah ﷺ forget his oath! By Allah, we will never be successful.' So we returned to him and reminded him of his oath. He said, 'I have not provided you with the mount, but Allah has done so. By Allah, I may take an oath to do something, but on finding something else which is better, I do that which is better and make the expiation for my oath.' "

كَانَ بَيْنَ هَذَا الْحَىِّ مِنْ جُرْمٍ وَبَيْنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ وُدٌّ وَإِخَاءٌ فَكُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي مُوسَى الأَشْعَرِيِّ فَقُرِّبَ إِلَيْهِ الطَّعَامُ فِيهِ لَحْمُ دَجَاجٍ وَعِنْدَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَيْمِ اللَّهِ كَأَنَّهُ مِنَ الْمَوَالِي فَدَعَاهُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُهُ يَأْكُلُ شَيْئًا فَقَذِرْتُهُ فَحَلَفْتُ لاَ آكُلُهُ فَقَالَ هَلُمَّ فَلأُحَدِّثْكَ عَنْ ذَاكَ إِنِّي أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ قَالَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ فَأُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِنَهْبِ إِبِلٍ فَسَأَلَ عَنَّا فَقَالَ أَيْنَ النَّفَرُ الأَشْعَرِيُّونَ فَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِخَمْسِ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى ثُمَّ انْطَلَقْنَا قُلْنَا مَا صَنَعْنَا حَلَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ يَحْمِلُنَا وَمَا عِنْدَهُ مَا يَحْمِلُنَا ثُمَّ حَمَلَنَا تَغَفَّلْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَمِينَهُ وَاللَّهِ لاَ نُفْلِحُ أَبَدًا فَرَجَعْنَا إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ فَقَالَ لَسْتُ أَنَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ حَمَلَكُمْ إِنِّي وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلاَّ أَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْهُ وَتَحَلَّلْتُهَا

I came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ along with a group of Ash'arites requesting to give us a mount. He (the Holy Prophet) said: By Allah, I cannot provide you with a mount, and there is nothing with me which I should give you as a ride. He (the narrator) said: We stayed there as long as Allah willed. Then there were brought to him (to the Holy Prophet) camels. He (the Holy Prophet) then ordered to give us three white humped camels, We started and said (or some of us said to the others): Allah will not bless us. We came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ begging him to provide us with riding camels. He swore that he could not provide us with a mount, but later on he provided us with that. They (some of the Prophet's Companions) came and informed him about this (rankling of theirs), whereupon he said: It was not I who provided you with a mount, but Allah has provided you with that. So far as I am concerned, by Allah, if He so wills, I would not swear, but if, later on, I would see better than it, I (would break the vow) and expiate it and do that which is better.

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي رَهْطٍ مِنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَلَبِثْنَا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِإِبِلٍ فَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِثَلاَثِ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قُلْنَا أَوْ قَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ لاَ يُبَارِكُ اللَّهُ لَنَا أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَحَلَفَ أَنْ لاَ يَحْمِلَنَا ثُمَّ حَمَلَنَا فَأَتَوْهُ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ حَمَلَكُمْ وَإِنِّي وَاللَّهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لاَ أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ ثُمَّ أَرَى خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلاَّ كَفَّرْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي وَأَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ

We were sitting in the company of Abu Musa that he called for food and it consisted of flesh of fowl. It was then that a person from Banu Tamim visited him. His complexion was red having the resemblance of a slave. He said to him: Come and (join me in food). He showed reluctance. He (Abu Masa) said: Come on, for I saw Messenger of Allah ﷺ eating it (fowl's meat), whereupon that person said: I saw it eating something (of filth and rubbish) and I found it repugnant and took an oath that I would never eat that. He (Abu Muds) said: Come, so that I would narrate to you about that (the incident pertaining to vow). (And he narrated thus): I came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with a group of people belonging to the tribe of Ash'ari, asking him to provide us with riding camels. He (the Holy Prophet) said: By Allah, I cannot provide you with riding animals. And there is nothing with me with which I can provide you a mount. We stayed (for some time) there as Allah willed, and there was brought to Messenger of Allah ﷺ booty of camels. He called us and commanded that we should be given five white humped camels. As we were about to go back, some of us said to the other: As we made Messenger of Allah ﷺ forget oath, there would be no blessing for us (in his gift). We went back to him and said: Messenger of Allah, we came to you to provide us with riding animals and you took an oath that you would never equip us with mounts and then you have provided us with the riding beasts Messenger of Allah, have you forgotten? Thereupon he said: I swear by Allah that if Allah so wills, I shall not swear an oath, and then consider something else to be better than it without making atonement for my oath and doing the thing that is better. So you go; Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, has given you riding animals.

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي رَهْطٍ مِنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَلَبِثْنَا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِإِبِلٍ فَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِثَلاَثَةِ إِبِلٍ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَحَلَفَ أَلاَّ يَحْمِلَنَا ثُمَّ حَمَلَنَا ارْجِعُوا بِنَا فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا أَتَيْنَاكَ نَسْتَحْمِلُكَ فَحَلَفْتَ أَنْ لاَ تَحْمِلَنَا ثُمَّ حَمَلْتَنَا فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ حَمَلَكُمْ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ بَلِ اللَّهُ حَمَلَكُمْ إِنِّي وَاللَّهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لاَ أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلاَّ كَفَّرْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي وَأَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ أَوْ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَكَفَّرْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي

"I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with a group of Asharites and asked him to give us animals to ride. He said: 'By Allah, I cannot give you anything to ride, and I have nothing to give you to ride.' We stayed as long as Allah willed, then some camels were brought to him. He ordered that we be given three she-camels with fine humps. When we left, we said to one another: 'We came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to ask him for animals to ride, and he swore by Allah that he would not give us anything to ride, then he gave us something. Let us go back.' So we went to him and we said: 'O Messenger of Allah! We came to you seeking mounts, and you took an oath that you would not give us mounts, then you gave us some mounts.' He said: 'By Allah, I did not give you animals to ride, rather Allah gave you them to ride. I, by Allah, if Allah wills, do not swear and then see something better than it, but I offer expiation for what I swore about, and do that which is better.' Or he said: 'I do that which is better and offer expiation for what I swore about.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2107)

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي رَهْطٍ مِنَ الْأَشْعَرِيِّينَ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ لَا وَاللهِ مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ فَلَبِثْنَا مَا شَاءَ اللهُ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ لَنَا بِثَلَاثِ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَحَلَفَ أَنْ لَا يَحْمِلَنَا ارْجِعُوا بِنَا أَيْ حَتَّى نُذَكِّرَهُ قَالَ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا أَتَيْنَاكَ نَسْتَحْمِلُكَ فَحَلَفْتَ أَنْ لَا تَحْمِلَنَا ثُمَّ حَمَلْتَنَا ‍ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ بَلِ اللهُ ﷻ حَمَلَكُمْ إِنِّي وَاللهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى لَا أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلَّا أَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَكَفَّرْتُ عَنْيَمِينِي أَوْ قَالَ إِلَّا كَفَّرْتُ يَمِينِي وَأَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ

Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud that Abu Hurayra and Zayd ibn Khalid al-Juhani informed him that two men brought a dispute to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. One of them said, "Messenger of Allah! Judge between us by the Book of Allah!" The other said, and he was the wiser of the two, "Yes, Messenger of Allah. Judge between us by the Book of Allah and give me permission to speak." He said, "Speak." He said, "My son was hired by this person and he committed fornication with his wife. He told me that my son deserved stoning, and I ransomed him for one hundred sheep and a slave-girl. Then I asked the people of knowledge and they told me that my son deserved to be flogged with one hundred lashes and exiled for a year, and they informed me that the woman deserved to be stoned." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By him in whose Hand myself is, I will judge between you by the Book of Allah. As for your sheep and slave girl, they should be returned to you. Your son should have one hundred lashes and be exiled for a year." He ordered Unays al-Aslami to go to the wife of the other man and to stone her if she confessed . She confessed and he stoned her.

أَنَّ رَجُلَيْنِ اخْتَصَمَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اقْضِ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَقَالَ الآخَرُ وَهُوَ أَفْقَهُهُمَا أَجَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَاقْضِ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَائْذَنْ لِي أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمَ قَالَ تَكَلَّمْ فَقَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي كَانَ عَسِيفًا عَلَى هَذَا فَزَنَا بِامْرَأَتِهِ فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي الرَّجْمَ فَافْتَدَيْتُ مِنْهُ بِمِائَةِ شَاةٍ وَبِجَارِيَةٍ لِي ثُمَّ إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ أَهْلَ الْعِلْمِ فَأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّ مَا عَلَى ابْنِي جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبُ عَامٍ وَأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّمَا الرَّجْمُ عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَمَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لأَقْضِيَنَّ بَيْنَكُمَا بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ أَمَّا غَنَمُكَ وَجَارِيَتُكَ فَرَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَجَلَدَ ابْنَهُ مِائَةً وَغَرَّبَهُ عَامًا وَأَمَرَ أُنَيْسًا الأَسْلَمِيَّ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ امْرَأَةَ الآخَرِ فَإِنِ اعْتَرَفَتْ رَجَمَهَا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ فَرَجَمَهَا

Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Abu Umama ibn Sahl ibn Hunayf from Abdullah ibn Abbas that Khalid ibn al-Walid ibn al-Mughira entered the house of Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he was brought a roasted lizard. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stretched his hand toward it. One of the women who was in Maimuna's house said, "Tell the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what he means to eat." Someone said, "It is a lizard, Messenger of Allah." He withdrew his hand. Khalid said, "Is it haram, Messenger of Allah?" He said, "No, but there were none in my people's land, and I find that I dislike them." Khalid added, "I chewed and ate it while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was looking."

أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَيْتَ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأُتِيَ بِضَبٍّ مَحْنُوذٍ فَأَهْوَى إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ النِّسْوَةِ اللاَّتِي فِي بَيْتِ مَيْمُونَةَ أَخْبِرُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِمَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مِنْهُ فَقِيلَ هُوَ ضَبٌّ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَقُلْتُ أَحَرَامٌ هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لاَ وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِأَرْضِ قَوْمِي فَأَجِدُنِي أَعَافُهُ قَالَ خَالِدٌ فَاجْتَرَرْتُهُ فَأَكَلْتُهُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَنْظُرُ

I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with a group of people from (the tribe of) Al-Ashʿari, asking for mounts. The Prophet ﷺ said, "By Allah, I will not give you anything to ride, and I have nothing to mount you on." We stayed there as long as Allah wished, and after that, some camels were brought to the Prophet and he ordered that we be given three camels. When we set out, some of us said to others, "Allah will not bless us, as we all went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ asking him for mounts, and although he had sworn that he would not give us mounts, he did give us." So we returned to the Prophet; and mentioned that to him. He said, "I have not provided you with mounts, but Allah has. By Allah, Allah willing, if I ever take an oath, and then see that another is better than the first, I make expiration for my (dissolved) oath, and do what is better and make expiration." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6718)

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي يَعْنِي رَهْطٍ مِنَ الْأَشْعَرِيِّينَ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ «وَاللهِ لَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ» ثُمَّ لَبِثْنَا مَا شَاءَ اللهُ فَأُتِيَ بِإِبِلٍ فَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِثَلَاثَةِ ذَوْدٍ فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ لَا يُبَارِكُ اللهُ لَنَا أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَحَلَفَ لَا يَحْمِلُنَا فَحَمَلْنَا قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَأَتَيْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ بَلِ اللهُ حَمَلَكُمْ إِنِّي وَاللهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَا أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلَّا كَفَّرْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي وَأَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ»

[AI] Narrated Abu Hurayrah, Zayd ibn Khalid, and Shibl: We were with the Prophet ﷺ when a man came to him and said: "I adjure you by Allah, except what you have decreed among us with the Book of Allah." The Prophet ﷺ said: "Say." He said: "Indeed, my son was a shepherd for this man, and he committed adultery with his wife. So I ransomed myself from him with a hundred sheep and a servant, and they both informed me about stoning his son. So I ransomed him, and then I asked the knowledgeable men, and they informed me that there should be a hundred lashes and banishment for a year on my son." The Prophet ﷺ said to him: "By the One in whose hand is my soul, I will judge between you with the Book of Allah. The hundred sheep and the servant shall be returned to you, and your son shall be lashed a hundred times and banished for a year. Go, O Unais, and announce about this woman, for if she confesses, then stone her." So he went to her and she confessed, so he stoned her. Abu 'Abdur-Rahman said: We do not know anyone who narrated it from Sufyan on the authority of Shibil, except Malik, from Az-Zuhri, from 'Ubaidullah, from Abu Hurayrah and Zayd ibn Khalid. Bukayr ibn al-Ashajj narrated it from 'Amr ibn Shu'aib, from Az-Zuhri, from 'Ubaidullah ibn 'Abdullah, from Abu Hurayrah. And the hadith of Malik and 'Amr ibn Shu'aib is more correct than the narration of Ibn 'Uyaynah and Shibl. Yunus ibn 'Abd al-A'la said: Ibn Wahb informed us, saying: I heard Malik ibn Anas say...

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَزِيدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ وَشِبْلٍ قَالُوا كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ أَنْشُدُكَ بِاللهِ إِلَّا مَا قَضَيْتَ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ قَالَ قُلْ قَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي كَانَ عَسِيفًا عَلَى هَذَا فَزَنَا بِامْرَأَتِهِ فَافْتَدَيْتُ مِنْهُ بِمِائَةِ شَاةٍ وَخَادِمٍ كَانَا أَخْبَرَانِي عَلَى ابْنِهِ الرَّجْمَ فَافْتَدَى مِنْهُ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ رِجَالًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ فَأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي جَلْدَ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبَ عَامٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأَقْضِيَنَّ بَيْنَكُمْ بِكِتَابِ اللهِ الْمِائَةُ شَاةٍ وَالْخَادِمُ تُرَدُّ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى ابْنِكَ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبُ عَامٍ اغْدُ يَا أُنَيْسُ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ هَذَا فَإِنِ اعْتَرَفَتْ فَارْجُمْهَا» فَغَدَا عَلَيْهَا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ فَرَجَمَهَا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ لَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا تَابَعَ سُفْيَانَ عَلَى قَوْلِهِ وَشِبْلٍ رَوَاهُ مَالِكٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَزِيدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ وَرَوَاهُ بُكَيْرُ بْنُ الْأَشَجِّ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَطْ وَحَدِيثُ مَالِكٍ وَعَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ أَوْلَى بِالصَّوَابِ مِنْ قَوْلِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ وَشِبْلٍ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مَالِكَ بْنَ أَنَسٍ

[AI] It was narrated by Suhaib, the companion of the Prophet ﷺ, that the Prophet ﷺ never entered a village without saying, "O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and whatever they shade, and Lord of the earths and whatever they contain, and Lord of the devils and whatever they mislead, and Lord of the winds and whatever they scatter. Indeed, we ask You for the good of this village and the good of its people, and seek Your protection from its evil and the evil of its inhabitants and the evil within it." Abu Abdul Rahman Hafs ibn Maysarah said, "There is no harm in it." And Abdul Rahman ibn Abi al-Zinad is weak. Abdul Rahman ibn Abi al-Zinad reported to us that Harun ibn Abdullah informed us that Saad ibn Abdul Hamid informed us that Ibn Abi al-Zinad reported to us from Musa ibn Uqbah from Ata ibn Abi Marwan from his father that Abdul Rahman ibn Mughith told him that Ka'b said, "Whenever Muhammad ﷺ wanted to enter a village, he would say upon seeing it, 'Their people are all the same, except for the evil among them.'" Ka'b also said, "Suhaib narrated this supplication from the Messenger of Allah." And Ka'b said, "It was the supplication of Dawud (David) when he used to face the enemy." Ibn Ishaq differed with this. Ibn Ishaq reported to us that Ibrahim ibn Ya'qub informed us that al-Nufayli narrated to us that Muhammad ibn Salamah narrated to us from Ibn Ishaq from Ata ibn Abi Marwan from his father from Abu Mughith ibn Amr that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ approached Khaibar, he said to his companions, "Stop!" Then he said, "O Allah, Lord of the heavens and whatever they shade," and so on, like that. He used to say it upon entering every village. Zakariyya ibn Yahya reported to us that Umar ibn Ali narrated to us that Abdullah ibn Harun narrated to us that his father narrated to us that Muhammad ibn Ishaq narrated to us from someone whose name I do not remember, from Ata ibn Abi Marwan from his father from Abu Mughith ibn Amr, a similar narration.

أَنَّ صُهَيْبًا صَاحِبَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَمْ يَرَ قَرْيَةً يُرِيدُ دُخُولَهَا إِلَّا قَالَ حِينَ يَرَاهَا «اللهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَمَا أَظْلَلْنَ وَرَبَّ الْأَرَضِينَ وَمَا أَقْلَلْنَ وَرَبَّ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَمَا أَضْلَلْنَ وَرَبَّ الرِّيَاحِ وَمَا ذَرَيْنَ فَإِنَّا نَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ هَذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ وَخَيْرَ أَهْلِهَا وَنَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ أَهْلِهَا وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَفْصُ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ ضَعِيفٌ خَالَفَهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ 10303 أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِيُ الزِّنَادِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْوَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ مُغِيثٍ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ قَالَ كَعْبٌ مَا أَتَى مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ قَرْيَةً يُرِيدُ دُخُولَهَا إِلَّا قَالَ حِينَ يَرَاهَا مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءٌ إِلَى «شَرِّ أَهْلِهَا» قَالَ وَقَالَ كَعْبٌ إِنَّ صُهَيْبًا حَدَّثَهُ هَذَا الدُّعَاءَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ وَقَالَ كَعْبٌ إِنَّهَا كَانَتْ دَعْوَةَ دَاوُدَ حِينَ يَرَى الْعَدُوَّ [202] خَالَفَهُ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ 10304 أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْوَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي مُغِيثِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمَّا أَشْرَفَ عَلَى خَيْبَرَ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ وَأَنَا فِيهِمْ «قِفُوا» ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَوَاتِ وَمَا أَظْلَلْنَ» نَحْوَهُ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَقُولُهَا لِكُلِّ قَرْيَةٍ دَخَلَهَا 10305 أَخْبَرَنِي زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ هَارُونَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ لَا أَتَّهِمُ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْوَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي مُغِيثِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو نَحْوَهُ

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Two men should not go out to relieve themselves uncovering their private parts and speaking, for Allah dislikes that." And Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us that Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Ahmad Al-Humaidi narrated to us, who narrated to us from Al-Hasan ibn Al-Fadl Al-Bajali, who narrated to us from Muslim ibn Ibrahim Al-Warraq, that Ikrimah ibn Ammar narrated to us from Yahya ibn Abi Kathir, from Iyad ibn Hilal, who mentioned him with similar wording. Abu Bakr Ahmad ibn Ali Al-Hafiz informed us, and Ibrahim ibn Abdullah Al-Asbahani said, Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Khuzayma followed these two narrations, stating that this is authentic and this scholar is Iyad ibn Hilal, who narrated from him Yahya ibn Abi Kathir, without mentioning a specific narration. I consider the doubt in it from Ikrimah ibn Ammar when he said from Hilal ibn Iyad. And Abu Ali Al-Rudhbari informed us, I am Abu Bakr ibn Dasa, I heard Abu Dawood say, and it is only narrated by Ikrimah ibn Ammar. Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, saying, I heard Ali ibn Hamshath say, I heard Musa ibn Harun say, narrated by Muhammad ibn Al-Sabah, narrated by Al-Walid from Al-Awza'ee, from Yahya ibn Abi Kathir, from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a mursal narration.

[AI] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ woke up one day and said: "Maymuna, O Messenger of Allah, I have disliked your appearance since today." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Indeed, Jibril had promised to meet me tonight but he did not meet me. By Allah, he did not deceive me." He kept himself on that for that day. Then he felt a tingling sensation in his body, like the sting of a dog under his blanket. He commanded that it be brought out and then he took water in his hand and sprinkled it in that place. When evening came, he met Jibril, may ﷺ , and he said to him: "You promised to meet me yesterday." He said: "Yes, indeed, but we do not enter a house with a dog or an image in it." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered the killing of the dogs until he even ordered the killing of the small dog of the wall but left the large dog of the wall.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَصْبَحَ يَوْمًا وَاجِمًا فَقَالَتْ مَيْمُونَةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَقَدِ اسْتَنْكَرْتُ هَيْئَتَكَ مُنْذُ الْيَوْمِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ كَانَ وَعَدَنِي أَنْ يَلْقَانِي اللَّيْلَةَ فَلَمْ يَلْقَنِي أَمَا وَاللهِ مَا أَخْلَفَنِي قَالَ فَظَلَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَهُ ذَلِكَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ وَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِهِ جَرْوُ كَلْبٍ تَحْتَ فُسْطَاطٍ لَنَا فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَأُخْرِجَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ مَاءً فَنَضَحَ مَكَانَهُ فَلَمَّا أَمْسَى لَقِيَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فَقَالَ لَهُ قَدْ كُنْتَ وَعَدْتَنِي أَنْ تَلْقَانِي الْبَارِحَةَ قَالَ أَجَلْ وَلَكِنَّا لَا نَدْخُلُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ كَلْبٌ وَلَا صُورَةٌ فَأَصْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِقَتْلِ الْكِلَابِ حَتَّى إِنَّهُ يَأْمُرُ بِقَتْلِ كَلْبِ الْحَائِطِ الصَّغِيرِ وَبِتَرْكِ كَلْبِ الْحَائِطِ الْكَبِيرِ

[AI] From the Prophet's ﷺ narration about his vision, it is like this.

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِحَدِيثِهِ فِي رُؤْيَا هُوَ كَذَلِكَ

[AI] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Indeed, Allah loves that His concessions are granted just as He loves that His commands are fulfilled." 5416 And likewise.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يُحِبُّ أَنْ تُؤْتَى رُخَصُهُ كَمَا يُحِبُّ أَنْ تُؤْتَى عَزَائِمُهُ 5416 وَكَذَلِكَ

[AI] Abdullah ibn Umar and Abu Hurairah reported that they heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying while standing on the steps of his pulpit, "A time will come when some people will stop attending Friday prayers, or Allah will seal their hearts, and they will become among the heedless."

أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ وَأَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ حَدَّثَاهُ أَنَّهُمَا سَمِعَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَهُوَ عَلَى أَعْوَادِ مِنْبَرِهِ لَيَنْتَهِيَنَّ أَقْوَامٌ عَنْ وَدْعِهِمُ الْجُمُعَاتِ أَوْ لَيَخْتِمَنَّ اللهُ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ ثُمَّ لَيَكُونُنَّ مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , sent 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, for charity. It was said that Ibn Jamil, Khalid Ibn Al-Walid, and Al-Abbas, the uncle of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , prevented 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "Ibn Jamil does not seek revenge except for being poor and Allah has enriched him. As for Khalid, you have oppressed him. I have appointed him as a leader and honored him in the cause of Allah. As for Al-Abbas, it is for me and the same is for her," and then he said, "O 'Umar, do you not know that the uncle of a man is like his father?"

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عُمَرَ ؓ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَقِيلَ مَنَعَ ابْنُ جَمِيلٍ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ وَالْعَبَّاسُ عَمُّ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا يَنْقِمُ ابْنُ جَمِيلٍ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَأَغْنَاهُ اللهُ وَأَمَّا خَالِدٌ فَإِنَّكُمْ تَظْلِمُونَ خَالِدًا قَدِ احْتَبَسَ أَعْتُدَهُ وَأَدْرُعَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَأَمَّا الْعَبَّاسُ فَهِيَ عَلَيَّ وَمِثْلُهَا مَعَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عُمَرُ أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ عَمَّ الرَّجُلِ صِنْوُ أَبِيهِ

[AI] I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and embraced Islam. Then I said, "O Messenger of Allah, make something for my people that they can embrace Islam with from their wealth." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did so and appointed me to collect it from them. Abu Bakr also appointed me, then Umar appointed me. Saad was one of the people of Sura, and I spoke to my people about honey and said to them, "It is a form of charity because there is no good in a fruit that is not purified." They asked, "How much?" I said, "One tenth." So I took one tenth from them and went to Umar bin Khattab and informed him. Umar took it and sold it, and then placed its price in the charities of the Muslims.

قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَسْلَمْتُ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اجْعَلْ لِقَوْمِي مَا أَسْلَمُوا عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِمْ فَفَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَاسْتَعْمَلَنِي عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ اسْتَعْمَلَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ ثُمَّ عُمَرُ قَالَ وَكَانَ سَعْدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ السُّرَاةِ قَالَ فَكَلَّمْتُ قَوْمِي فِي الْعَسَلِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُمْ زَكَاةٌ فَإِنَّهُ لَا خَيْرَ فِي ثَمَرَةٍ لَا تُزَكَّى فَقَالُوا كَمْ قَالَ؟ فَقُلْتُ الْعُشْرُ فَأَخَذْتُ مِنْهُمُ الْعُشْرَ فَأَتَيْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِمَا كَانَ قَالَ فَقَبَضَهُ عُمَرُ ؓ فَبَاعَهُ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ ثَمَنَهُ فِي صَدَقَاتِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ 7463 وَأَخْبَرَنَاهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ الْمَكِّيُّ ثنا أَنَسُ بْنُ عِيَاضٍ أَبُو ضَمْرَةَ فَذَكَرَهُ بِنَحْوِهِ وَرَوَاهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذُبَابٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ فِي الْعَسَلِ وَرَوَاهُ الصَّلْتُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ عِيَاضٍ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ أَبِي ذُبَابٍ عَنْ مُنِيرٍ هُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ وَكَذَلِكَ

[AI] With the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during the Farewell Hajj, we performed Umrah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever has brought a sacrificial animal should enter the state of Ihram for Hajj along with Umrah, and he should not come out of the state of Ihram until he completes both of them together." I came forward while I was menstruating and, therefore, I did not complete circumambulation of the House (Kaaba) or go between Safa and Marwa. I complained about this to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said, "Uncover your head, comb your hair, and perform Hajj with the intention of Umrah, leaving Hajj." I acted according to his instructions. When we finished Hajj, he sent me with 'Abdur-Rahman ibn Abu Bakr to Tan'iim, and I performed Umrah. He said, "This is the place where you should complete your Umrah." Those who performed Umrah alongside with Hajj circumambulated the House and went between Safa and Marwa, then they untied their hair and completed another circumambulation after returning from Mina, whereas those who combined Hajj and Umrah performed only one circumambulation.

مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ فَأَهْلَلْنَا بِعُمْرَةٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ هَدْيٌ فَلْيُهِلَّ بِالْحَجِّ مَعَ الْعُمْرَةِ ثُمَّ لَا يَحِلَّ حَتَّى يَحِلَّ مِنْهُمَا جَمِيعًا قَالَتْ فَقَدِمْتُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ فَلَمْ أَطُفْ بِالْبَيْتِ وَلَا بِالصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ فَشَكَوْتُ ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ انْقُضِي رَأْسَكِ وَامْتَشِطِي وَأَهِلِّي بِالْحَجِّ وَدَعِي الْعُمْرَةَ قَالَتْ فَفَعَلْتُ فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا الْحَجَّ أَرْسَلَنِي مَعَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ إِلَى التَّنْعِيمِ فَاعْتَمَرْتُ فَقَالَ هَذِهِ مَكَانُ عُمْرَتِكِ قَالَتْ فَطَافَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا أَهَلُّوا بِالْعُمْرَةِ بِالْبَيْتِ وَبَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ ثُمَّ حَلُّوا ثُمَّ طَافُوا طَوَافًا آخَرَ بَعْدَمَا رَجَعُوا مِنْ مِنًى لِحَجِّهِمْ وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَانُوا جَمَعُوا بَيْنَ الْحَجِّ وَالْعُمْرَةِ فَإِنَّمَا طَافُوا طَوَافًا وَاحِدًا

[AI] He (the Prophet) was in a state of ihram with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when lice were bothering him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded him to shave his head and said, "Fast for three days, or feed six poor people, or sacrifice a sheep." So, he asked, "Which one should I do?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "You can choose whichever one you prefer. This is sufficient for you." And it has been reported in the correct manner.

أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مُحْرِمًا فَآذَاهُ الْقُمَّلُ فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَحْلِقَ رَأْسَهُ وَقَالَ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ مُدَّيْنِ مُدَّيْنِ أَوِ انْسُكْ شَاةً أِيَّ ذَلِكَ فَعَلْتَ أَجْزَأَ عَنْكَ هَذَا هُوَ الصَّحِيحُ وَقَدْ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited that a migrant sells to an Arab, that a woman asks for the divorce of her sister, that a man feels ashamed of bidding against his brother, and prohibited slander and cursing. This is the narration of Hafs bin 'Umar.

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ التَّلَقِّي وَأَنْ يَبِيعَ مُهَاجِرٌ لِأَعْرَابِيٍّ وَأَنْ تَسْأَلَ الْمَرْأَةُ طَلَاقَ أُخْتِهَا وَأَنْ يَسْتَامَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى سَوْمِ أَخِيهِ وَعَنِ التَّصْرِيَةِ وَالنَّجْشِ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ حَفْصِ بْنِ عُمَرَ

[AI] He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited the sale of unborn animals. Ibn Wahb said: Malik said to me, and that is what we see, and Allah knows best, that if a man buys a slave or a female slave or engages in renting, and then he says to the one he bought or rented from, I will give you a dinar or a dirham or more than that or less, on the condition that I take the merchandise or ride the animal that I rented from you, then what I gave you is part of the price of the merchandise or the rent of the animal. But if I leave the house or the rent, then what I gave you is null and void without any obligation. The sheikh said: thus narrated Malik bin Anas this hadith in the Muwatta, but he did not mention the narrator.

أَنَّهُ قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْعُرْبَانِ قَالَ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ فَقَالَ لِي مَالِكٌ وَذَلِكَ فِيمَا نَرَى وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ الرَّجُلُ الْعَبْدَ أَوِ الْأَمَةَ أَوْ يَتَكَارَى الْكِرَاءَ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لِلَّذِي اشْتَرَى أَوْ تَكَارَى مِنْهُ أُعْطِيكَ دِينَارًا أَوْ دِرْهَمًا أَوْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَوْ أَقَلَّ عَلَى أَنِّي إِنْ أَخَذْتُ السِّلْعَةَ أَوْ رَكِبْتُ مَا تَكَارَيْتُ مِنْكَ فَالَّذِي أَعْطَيْتُكَ هُوَ مِنْ ثَمَنِ السِّلْعَةِ أَوْ مِنْ كِرَاءِ الدَّابَّةِ وَإِنْ تَرَكْتُ الْبَيْتَ أَوِ الْكِرَاءَ فَمَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ فَهُوَ لَكَ بَاطِلٌ بِغَيْرِ شَيْءٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ هَكَذَا رَوَى مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فِي الْمُوَطَّأِ لَمْ يُسَمِّ مَنْ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whichever man finds his goods with someone who has gone bankrupt, he has more right to them than anyone else." Abu Sahl Muhammad bin Nasrawayh al-Kushmiyahni informed us, Abu Bakr Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Khanb narrated to us, Abu Muhammad Ubayd bin Abdul Wahid narrated to us, Sa'id ibn Abi Maryam meant Nafi' bin Yazid narrated to me, Ibn al-Had narrated to me, Abu Bakr ibn Hazm mentioned it, and so on.

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ أَدْرَكَ سِلْعَتَهُ بِعَيْنِهَا عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ قَدْ أَفْلَسَ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِهِ أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو سَهْلٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَصْرَوَيْهِ الْكُشْمِيهَنِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ خَنْبٍ ثنا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ ثنا سَعِيدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ أنبأ نَافِعُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ الْهَادِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ حَزْمٍ فَذَكَرَهُ وَكَذَلِكَ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , sent Umar ibn Al-Khattab to collect charity. Ibn Jameel, Khalid ibn Al-Walid, and Al-Abbas refused to give charity. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "Ibn Jameel will not face any consequences unless he is in need, and Allah will enrich him. As for Khalid, you have wronged him. He has dedicated his arms and effort in the path of Allah. As for Al-Abbas, he is my uncle, and the same applies to him." Then he asked, "Have you not heard that a man resembles his father or his paternal uncle?"

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَمَنَعَ ابْنُ جَمِيلٍ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ وَالْعَبَّاسُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا يَنْقِمُ ابْنُ جَمِيلٍ إِلَّا أَنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَأَغْنَاهُ اللهُ وَأَمَّا خَالِدٌ فَإِنَّكُمْ تَظْلِمُونَ خَالِدًا؛ فَقَدِ احْتَبَسَ أَدْرَاعَهُ وَأَعْتَادَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَأَمَّا الْعَبَّاسُ عَمُّ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَهِيَ عَلَيَّ وَمِثْلُهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَا شَعَرْتَ أَنَّ عَمَّ الرَّجُلِ صِنْوُ الْأَبِ أَوْ صِنْوُ أَبِيهِ؟

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "There is no newborn among the children of Adam except that he is born upon the fitrah (natural disposition), until his parents make him Jewish, Christian, or Magian, just as an animal gives birth to a perfect offspring. Do you find any among them imperfect? Then Abu Hurairah recited: 'The fitrah (natural disposition) of Allah upon which He has created [all] people. No change should there be in the creation of Allah. That is the correct religion, but most of the people do not know.'" [Quran 30:30]

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ مَوْلُودٍ فِي بَنِي آدَمَ إِلَّا يُولَدُ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ أَبَوَاهُ يُهَوِّدَانِهِ أَوْ يُنَصِّرَانِهِ أَوْ يُمَجِّسَانِهِ كَمَا تُنْتَجُ الْبَهِيمَةُ بَهِيمَةً جَمْعَاءَ هَلْ تُحِسُّونَ فِيهَا مِنْ جَدْعَاءَ؟ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَاقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ {فِطْرَةَ اللهِ الَّتِي فَطَرَ النَّاسَ عَلَيْهَا لَا تَبْدِيلَ لِخَلْقِ اللهِ ذَلِكَ الدِّينُ الْقَيِّمُ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ} [الروم 30]

[AI] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled for confiscation from the killer? He said, "Yes, but I increased it." I said, "You should return it to him or I will inform the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it." He said, "We will not return it to him." I said, "Fine." So we gathered with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I narrated to him the story of Madadi and what Khalid did. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Khalid, what prompted you to do what you did?" Khalid said, "O Messenger of Allah, I increased it." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Khalid, return to him what you took from him." Awf said, "I said to you, O Khalid, did I not warn you?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "What happened?" So I informed him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ became angry and said, "O Khalid, do not return it to him. Are you leaving my commanders for you, the elite of their affairs, while they face difficulties?"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَضَى بِالسَّلَبِ لِلْقَاتِلِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى وَلَكِنِّي اسْتَكْثَرْتُهُ قُلْتُ لَتَرُدَّنَّهُ إِلَيْهِ أَوْ لَأُعَرِّفَنَّكَهَا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَنْ نَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ عَوْفٌ فَاجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَصَصْتُ عَلَيْهِ قِصَّةَ الْمَدَدِيِّ وَمَا فَعَلَ خَالِدٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا خَالِدُ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتَ؟ قََالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اسْتَكْثَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا خَالِد رُدَّ عَلَيْهِ مَا أَخَذْتَ مِنْهُ قَالَ عَوْفٌ فَقُلْتُ دُونَكَ يَا خَالِدُ أَلَمْ أَفِ لَكَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ قَالَ فَغَضِبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا خَالِدُ لَا تَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ هَلْ أَنْتُمْ تَارِكُو لِي أُمَرَائِي لَكُمْ صَفْوَةُ أَمْرِهِمْ وَعَلَيْهِمْ كَدَرُهُ؟

[AI] Saad, the son of Abi Waqqas, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "Who am I, O Messenger of Allah?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Saad bin Malik bin Wuhayb bin Abd Manaf bin Zuhrah. Whoever says otherwise, may the curse of Allah be upon him. As for Taim, he was a brother to the dogs. And as for Makhzoom, he was not their brother, but his actual name was Makhzoom bin Yaqdha bin Murrah. However, the tribe became famous with the name Makhzoom, so they were attributed to him. Bani Taim were considered superior to Bani Makhzoom, as they were from the tribe of excellence and nobility.” It is also said that he mentioned the predecessor, referring to Abu Bakr As-Siddiq. For he is Abu Bakr Abdullah bin Uthman bin Amer bin Amr bin Ka'b bin Saad bin Taim bin Murrah bin Ka'b bin Lu'ayy bin Ghalib bin Fihr. Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz narrated to us, Abu Al-Abbas Muhammad bin Ya'qub narrated to us, Abdullah bin Abi Usamah Al-Halabi narrated to us, HAJJAJ bin Abi Maneh narrated from his grandfather from Az-Zuhri, and he mentioned this lineage. Abu Al-Husayn bin Al-Fadl informed us that Abdullah bin Ja'far narrated to us, Ya'qub bin Sufyan narrated to us, and HAJJAJ bin Abi Maneh narrated from his grandfather from Az-Zuhri, and he mentioned it, except that he said "Atiq" instead of Abdullah. Then he said, "Atiq is a title, and his name is Abdullah." The Sheikh said, "And he was the first among the free men to embrace Islam."

جَاءَ سَعْدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ مَالِكِ بْنِ وُهَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ مَنَافِ بْنِ زُهْرَةَ مَنْ قَالَ غَيْرَ هَذَا فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللهِ وَأَمَّا تَيْمٌ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ أَخًا لِكِلَابٍ وَأَمَّا مَخْزُومٌ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَخًا لَهُمْ وَإِنَّمَا هُوَ مَخْزُومُ بْنُ يَقَظَةَ بْنِ مُرَّةَ إِلَّا أَنَّ الْقَبِيلَةَ اشْتُهِرَتْ بِمَخْزُومٍ فَنُسِبَتْ إِلَيْهِ وَإِنَّمَا قَدَّمَ بَنِي تَيْمٍ عَلَى بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ؛ لِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مِنْ حِلْفِ الْفُضُولِ وَالْمُطَيَّبِينَ 13091 وَقِيلَ ذَكَرَ سَابِقَةً يُرِيدُ سَابِقَةَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ ؓ؛ فَإِنَّهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ تَيْمِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ لُؤِيِّ بْنِ غَالِبِ بْنِ فِهْرٍ 13092 حَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ الْحَلَبِيُّ ثنا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَبِي مَنِيعٍ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ فَذَكَرَ هَذَا النَّسَبَ 13093 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ أنبأ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَبِي مَنِيعٍ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ فَذَكَرَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ عَتِيقٌ بَدَلَ عَبْدِ اللهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَعَتِيقٌ لَقَبٌ وَاسْمُهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَهُوَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ الْأَحْرَارِ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Charity is not permissible for the rich or for one who is satisfied with little." 13156

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا تَحِلُّ الصَّدَقَةُ لِغَنِيٍّ وَلَا لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ 13156

[AI] 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

Allah has made blind the hearts of some people as He has deprived them of eyesight that they give religious verdict in favour of temporary marriage, while he was alluding to a person (Ibn 'Abbas). Ibn Abbas called him and said: You are an uncouth person, devoid of sense. By my life, Mut'a was practised during the lifetime of the leader of the pious (he meant Messenger of Allah, may peace be upon him), and Ibn Zubair said to him: just do it yourselves, and by Allah, if you do that I will stone you with your stones. Ibn Shihab said. Khalid b. Muhajir b. Saifullah informed me: While I was sitting in the company of a person, a person came to him and he asked for a religious verdict about Mut'a and he permitted him to do it. Ibn Abu 'Amrah al-Ansari (Allah be pleased with him) said to him: Be gentle. It was permitted in- the early days of Islam, (for one) who was driven to it under the stress of necessity just as (the eating of) carrion and the blood and flesh of swine and then Allah intensified (the commands of) His religion and prohibited it (altogether). Ibn Shihab reported: Rabi' b. Sabra told me that his father (Sabra) said: I contracted temporary marriage with a woman of Banu 'Amir for two cloaks during the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ ; then he forbade us to do Mut'a. Ibn Shihab said: I heard Rabi' b. Sabra narrating it to Umar b. 'Abd al-'Aziz and I was sitting there. (Using translation from Muslim 1406k)

إِنَّ نَاسًا أَعْمَى اللهُ قُلُوبَهُمْ كَمَا أَعْمَى أَبْصَارَهُمْ يُفْتُونَ بِالْمُتْعَةِ وَيُعَرِّضُ بِالرَّجُلِ فَنَادَاهُ فَقَالَ إنك جِلْفٌ جَافٍ فَلَعَمْرِي لَقَدْ كَانَتِ الْمُتْعَةُ تُفْعَلُ فِي عَهْدِ إِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِينَ يُرِيدُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ فَجَرِّبْ بِنَفْسِكَ فَوَاللهِ لَئِنْ فَعَلْتَهَا لَأَرْجُمَنَّكَ بِأَحْجَارِكَ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ فَأَخْبَرَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ سَيْفِ اللهِ أَنَّهُ بَيْنَمَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَاسْتَفْتَاهُ فِي الْمُتْعَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ مَهْلًا مَا هِيَ وَاللهِ لَقَدْ فُعِلَتْ فِي عَهْدِ إِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِينَ قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ إِنَّهَا كَانَتْ رُخْصَةً فِي أَوَّلِ الْإِسْلَامِ لِمَنْ يُضْطَرُّ إِلَيْهَا كَالْمَيْتَةِ وَالدَّمِ وَلَحْمِ الْخِنْزِيرِ ثُمَّ أَحْكَمَ اللهُ الدِّينَ وَنَهَى عَنْهَا قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَأَخْبَرَنِي الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سَبْرَةَ الْجُهَنِيُّ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ قَالَ قَدْ كُنْتُ اسْتَمْتَعْتُ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي عَامِرٍ بِبُرْدَيْنِ أَحْمَرَيْنِ ثُمَّ نَهَانَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْمُتْعَةِ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَسَمِعْتُ الرَّبِيعَ بْنَ سَبْرَةَ يُحَدِّثُ ذَلِكَ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ وَأَنَا جَالِسٌ

[AI] Abdullah came across a woman whose husband had died and had not paid her dowry or consummated the marriage. They went to him and continued to insist until he finally said, "In my opinion, her dowry is to be paid to her, without decrease or increase, and she is to observe the waiting period, and she is entitled to inheritance." Maqil ibn Sinan stood up and bore witness that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had judged in the case of Buroa bint Washiq al-Ashja'iyya in the same way as you have judged." Abdullah was delighted. 14413 Abu Ali al-Rudhbari informed us, Abu Bakr ibn Dasa narrated to us, Abu Dawud narrated to us, Uthman ibn Abi Shayba narrated to us, Yazid ibn Haroun and Ibn Mahdi narrated to us, from Sufyan, from Mansur, from Ibrahim, from Alqama, from Abdullah, who mentioned it in this way.

أَتَى عَبْدُ اللهِ فِي امْرَأَةٍ تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَلَمْ يَفْرِضْ لَهَا صَدَاقًا وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا فَتَرَدَّدُوا إِلَيْهِ وَلَمْ يَزَالُوا بِهِ حَتَّى قَالَ إِنِّي سَأَقُولُ بِرَأْيِي لَهَا صَدَاقُ نِسَائِهَا لَا وَكْسَ وَلَا شَطَطَ وَعَلَيْهَا الْعِدَّةُ وَلَهَا الْمِيرَاثُ فَقَامَ مَعْقِلُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ ؓ فَشَهِدَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَضَى فِي بِرْوَعِ بِنْتِ وَاشِقٍ الْأَشْجَعِيَّةِ بِمِثْلِ مَا قَضَيْتَ فَفَرِحَ عَبْدُ اللهِ ؓ 14413 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ثنا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ وَابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَذَكَرَهُ وَكَذَلِكَ

[AI] "A Bedouin man from the tribe of Banu Fazara came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'Indeed, my wife has given birth to a dark-skinned boy.' The Prophet ﷺ said to him, 'Do you have any camels?' He replied, 'Yes.' The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'What are their colors?' He answered, 'Red.' The Prophet ﷺ then asked, 'Do any of them have white markings?' He replied, 'Yes, some of them have white markings.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Perhaps it is from the genes of one of them that the child inherited this.' The phrase 'perhaps it is from the genes of one of them' is a narration from Imam Shafi'i, and in the narration of Qutaiba, it mentions that a man from the tribe of Banu Fazara came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'Perhaps it is from the genes of one of them.'"

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا مِنْ بَنِي فَزَارَةَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي وَلَدَتْ غُلَامًا أَسْوَدَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَمَا أَلْوَانُهَا؟ قَالَ حُمْرٌ قَالَ هَلْ فِيهَا مِنْ أَوْرَقَ؟ قَالَ إِنَّ فِيهَا لَوُرْقًا قَالَ فَأَنَّى أَصَابَهَا ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ لَعَلَّهُ عِرْقٌ نَزَعَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَهَذَا لَعَلَّهُ نَزَعَهُ عِرْقٌ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الشَّافِعِيِّ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ قُتَيْبَةَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي فَزَارَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَالَ عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ نَزَعَهُ عِرْقٌ

[AI] I was between two women, and one of them struck the other with a stick, causing her pregnant belly to miscarry. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled that the fetus be compensated with a slave, and ruled that the woman be killed by the woman. This is a correct narration, as mentioned by Abu 'Eesa At-Tirmidhi in his book Al-'Illa. He said, "I asked Muhammad, meaning Al-Bukhari, about this hadith, and he said, 'This is an authentic hadith.'"

كُنْتُ بَيْنَ امْرَأَتَيْنِ لِي فَضَرَبَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا الْأُخْرَى بِعَمُودٍ وَفِي بَطْنِهَا جَنِينٌ فَقَتَلَهُ فَقَضَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْجَنِينِ بِغُرَّةٍ وَقَضَى أَنْ تُقْتَلَ الْمَرْأَةُ بِالْمَرْأَةِ وَهَذَا إِسْنَادٌ صَحِيحٌ وَفِيمَا ذَكَرَ أَبُو عِيسَى التِّرْمِذِيُّ فِي كِتَابِ الْعِلَلِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ مُحَمَّدًا يَعْنِي الْبُخَارِيَّ عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ

Two men brought a dispute before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. One of them said: Pronounce judgement between us in accordance with Allah’s Book, Messenger of Allah! The other who had more understanding said: Yes, Messenger of Allah! Pronounce judgement between us in accordance with Allah’s Book, and allow me to speak. He (the Prophet) said: Speak, He then said: My son who was a hired servant with this(man) committed fornication with his wife, and when I was told that my son must be stoned to death, I ransomed him with a hundred sheep and a slave girl of mine; but when I asked the learned, they told me that my son should receive a hundred lashes and be banished for a year, and that stoning to death applied only to man’s wife. The apostle of Allah ﷺ replied: By him in whose hand my soul is, I shall certainly pronounce judgment between you in accordance with Allah’s Book. Your sheep and your slave girl must be returned to you, and your son shall receive a hundred lashes and be banished for a year. And he commanded Unias al-Aslami go to that man’s wife, and if she confessed, he should stone her to death. She confessed and he stoned her. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4445)

أَنَّ رَجُلَيْنِ اخْتَصَمَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اقْضِ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ وَكَانَ أَفْقَهَهُمَا أَجَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اقْضِ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَأْذَنْ لِي فِي أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمَ قَالَ تَكَلَّمْ قَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي كَانَ عَسِيفًا عَلَى هَذَا فَزَنَى بِامْرَأَتِهِ فَأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي الرَّجْمَ فَافْتَدَيْتُ مِنْهُ بِمِائَةِ شَاةٍ وَجَارِيَةٍ لِي ثُمَّ إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ أَهْلَ الْعِلْمِ فأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي جَلْدَ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبَ عَامٍ إِنَّمَا الرَّجْمُ عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأَقْضِيَنَّ بَيْنَكُمَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ أَمَّا غَنَمُكَ وَجَارِيَتُكَ فَرَدٌّ إِلَيْكَ وَجَلَدَ ابْنَهُ مِائَةً وَغَرَّبَهُ عَامًا وَأَمَرَ أُنَيْسًا الْأَسْلَمِيَّ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ امْرَأَةَ الْآخَرِ فَإِنِ اعْتَرَفَتْ رَجَمَهَا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ فَرَجَمَهَا لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الْقَعْنَبِيِّ وَزَادَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ وَالْعَسِيفُ الْأَجِيرُ 16918 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ثنا ابْنُ قَعْنَبٍ وَابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ نَحْوَهُ قَالَ وَالْعَسِيفُ الْأَجِيرُ

[AI] Abu Huraira and Zaid ibn Khalid narrated that a man from the Bedouins came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I swear by Allah, except if Allah decides otherwise, then I will definitely be judged according to the Book of Allah." Another man, who was more knowledgeable than him, said, "Yes, judge between us according to the Book of Allah and give me permission." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Say what you have to say." He said, "My son was a shepherd and he committed adultery with his wife. I was informed that stoning was required for my son, so I ransomed him with one hundred sheep and a slave-girl. I asked the people of knowledge and they informed me that my son should be lashed one hundred times and exiled for one year, and that his wife should be stoned." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, I will judge between you according to the Book of Allah. The slave-girl and the sheep shall be returned to you, and your son shall be lashed one hundred times and exiled for one year. Go, O Unais, and deal with the matter of this woman, and if she confesses, then stone her." So, the next day she confessed and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that she be stoned.

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ أَنَّهُمَا قَالَا إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنْشُدُكَ اللهَ إِلَّا قَضَيْتَ فِيَّ بكِتَابِ اللهِ فَقَالَ الْآخَرُ وَهُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ نَعَمْ فَاقْضِ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَأْذَنْ لِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْ قَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي كَانَ عَسِيفًا عَلَى هَذَا فَزَنَى بِامْرَأَتِهِ وَإِنِّي أُخْبِرْتُ أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي الرَّجْمَ فَافْتَدَيْتُ مِنْهُ بِمِائَةِ شَاةٍ وَوَلِيدَةٍ وَسَأَلْتُ أَهْلَ الْعِلْمِ فَأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي جَلْدَ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبَ عَامٍ وَأَنَّ عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ الرَّجْمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأَقْضِيَنَّ بَيْنَكُمَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ الْوَلِيدَةُ وَالْغَنَمُ رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى ابْنِكَ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبُ عَامٍ اغْدُ يَا أُنَيْسُ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ هَذَا فَإِنِ اعْتَرَفَتْ فَارْجُمْهَا قَالَ فَغَدَا عَلَيْهَا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَرُجِمَتْ

A bedouin came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Allah's apostle! I ask you by Allah to judge My case according to Allah's Laws." His opponent, who was more learned than he, said, "Yes, judge between us according to Allah's Laws, and allow me to speak." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Speak." He (i .e. the bedouin or the other man) said, "My son was working as a laborer for this (man) and he committed illegal sexual intercourse with his wife. The people told me that it was obligatory that my son should be stoned to death, so in lieu of that I ransomed my son by paying one hundred sheep and a slave girl. Then I asked the religious scholars about it, and they informed me that my son must be lashed one hundred lashes, and be exiled for one year, and the wife of this (man) must be stoned to death." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, I will judge between you according to Allah's Laws. The slave-girl and the sheep are to be returned to you, your son is to receive a hundred lashes and be exiled for one year. You, Unais, go to the wife of this (man) and if she confesses her guilt, stone her to death." Unais went to that woman next morning and she confessed. Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that she be stoned to death. (Using translation from Bukhārī 2724)

عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَشِبْلٍ قَالُوا كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنْشُدُكَ اللهَ إِلَّا قَضَيْتَ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ فَقَامَ خَصْمُهُ وَكَانَ أَفْقَهَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ أَجَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اقْضِ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَأْذَنْ فَلْأَقُلْ قَالَ قُلْ قَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي كَانَ عَسِيفًا عَلَى هَذَا وَإِنَّهُ زَنَى بِامْرَأَتِهِ فَأُخْبِرْتُ أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي الرَّجْمَ فَافْتَدَيْتُ مِنْهُ بِمِائَةِ شَاةٍ وَخَادِمٍ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ رِجَالًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ عَلَى ابْنِي جَلْدَ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبَ عَامٍ وَأَنَّ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ هَذَا الرَّجْمَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأَقْضِيَنَّ بَيْنَكُمَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ الْمِائَةُ شَاةٍ وَالْخَادِمُ رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى ابْنِكَ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبُ عَامٍ وَاغْدُ يَا أُنَيْسُ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ هَذَا فَإِنِ اعْتَرَفَتْ فَارْجُمْهَا قَالَ فَغَدَا عَلَيْهَا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ فَرَجَمَهَا قَالَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَأُنَيْسٌ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ هَذَا لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الْحُمَيْدِيِّ

[AI] Abu Huraira, Zaid bin Khalid al-Juhani, and Shibl said, "We were with the Prophet ﷺ when a man came to him and said, 'I adjure you by Allah, do not judge between us except according to the Book of Allah and allow me to speak first.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Say your statement.' The man said, 'My son was a shepherd for this man's wife and he committed adultery with her. I redeemed myself from him by giving him a hundred sheep and a servant. Then I asked some knowledgeable people who informed me that he should be punished with a hundred lashes and one year of exile, and that his wife should be stoned to death.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'By the One in Whose hand is my soul, I will judge between you according to the Book of Allah. The hundred sheep and the servant are to be returned to you, and your son is to be punished with a hundred lashes and one year of exile. And you, O Unays, go and announce that if the wife of this man admits (to the adultery), then stone her.' So Unays went and announced this, and the wife admitted (to the adultery), so he stoned her.' Sufyan and Unays both said, 'Unays was a man who had embraced Islam.'

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ وَشِبْلٍ قَالُوا كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ أَنْشُدُكَ اللهَ إِلَّا قَضَيْتَ بَيْنَنَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ وَأْذَنْ لِي قَالَ قُلْ قَالَ إِنَّ ابْنِي كَانَ عَسِيفًا عَلَى هَذَا فَزَنَى بِامْرَأَتِهِ فَافْتَدَيْتُ مِنْهُ بِمِائَةِ شَاةٍ وَخَادِمٍ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ رِجَالًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ فَأَخْبَرُونِي أَنَّ عَلَيْهِ جَلْدَ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبَ عَامٍ وَأَنَّ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ هَذَا الرَّجْمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَأَقْضِيَنَّ بَيْنَكُمَا بِكِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ الْمِائَةُ شَاةٍ وَالْخَادِمُ رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى ابْنِكَ جَلْدُ مِائَةٍ وَتَغْرِيبُ عَامٍ وَاحِدٍ وَاغْدُ يَا أُنَيْسُ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ هَذَا فَإِنِ اعْتَرَفَتْ فَارْجُمْهَا فَغَدَا عَلَيْهَا فَاعْتَرَفَتْ فَرَجَمَهَا قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَأُنَيْسٌ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "If the slave woman of any of you commits adultery, then let him ascertain her adultery, then let him lash her with one hundred lashes and let there be no compassion for her. If she commits adultery again, then let him lash her with one hundred lashes and there be no compassion for her. If she commits adultery for the third time, then let him ascertain her adultery, then let him sell her, even for a rope of hair."

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِذَا زَنَتْ أَمَةُ أَحَدِكُمْ فَتَبَيَّنَ زِنَاهَا فَلْيَجْلِدْهَا الْحَدَّ وَلَا يُثَرِّبْ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَلْيَجْلِدْهَا الْحَدَّ وَلَا يُثَرِّبْ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتِ الثَّالِثَةَ فَتَبَيَّنَ زِنَاهَا فَلْيَبِعْهَا وَلَوْ بِحَبْلٍ مِنْ شَعْرٍ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about a female slave who commits adultery but is not married. He said, "If she commits adultery, flog her. If she commits adultery again, flog her. Then, sell her even if it is for a rope." Ibn Shihab said, "I do not know if the third or fourth time was meant." Abu Ali Ar-Rawzbary informed us that Abu Bakr ibn Dasa narrated to us from Abu Dawud, who narrated from Abdullah ibn Muslimah from Malik, who mentioned it with a similar chain of narration except that he said it was narrated from Abu Hurairah and Zaid ibn Khalid Al-Juhani. He added, "If she commits adultery again, sell her even if it is for a rope." Ibn Shihab said, "I do not know if it was meant for the third or fourth time. The rope refers to a piece of string."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْأَمَةِ إِذَا زَنَتْ وَلَمْ تُحْصَنْ قَالَ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَاجْلِدُوهَا ثُمَّ بِيعُوهَا وَلَوْ بِضَفِيرٍ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ لَا أَدْرِي أبَعْدَ الثَّالِثَةِ أَوِ الرَّابِعَةِ 17099 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ عَنْ مَالِكٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ مِثْلَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ زَادَ قَالَ ثُمَّ إِنْ زَنَتْ فَبِيعُوهَا وَلَوْ بِضَفِيرٍ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ لَا أَدْرِي فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَوِ الرَّابِعَةِ وَالضَّفِيرُ الْحَبْلُ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded me to sell two young brothers, so I sold them and separated them. I mentioned this to the Prophet ﷺ and he said, "Find them and return them, and do not sell them except together, and do not separate them." And so it was.

أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ أَبِيعَ غُلَامَيْنِ أَخَوَيْنِ فَبِعْتُهُمَا وَفَرَّقْتُ بَيْنَهُمَا فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَدْرِكْهُمَا فَارْتَجِعْهُمَا وَلَا تَبِعْهُمَا إِلَّا جَمِيعًا وَلَا تُفَرِّقْ بَيْنَهُمَا وَكَذَلِكَ

[AI] And recite this verse: "And whoever allies himself with them from among you, then indeed, he is one of them." [Al-Ma'idah 51] And Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, narrating from Abu Bakr ibn Balwayh, narrating from Ahmad ibn Ali Al-Jazzaar, narrating from Khalid ibn Khidash, narrating from Abdullah ibn Wahb, who informed me, Malik, from Thawr ibn Zaid, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, who mentioned it in a similar manner. Abu Zakariyya ibn Abi Ishaq and Abu Bakr ibn Al Hassan narrated to us, narrating from Abu Al Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub, who was informed by Rabi'a ibn Sulaiman, who was informed by Al-Shafi'i, who said, "By the one whose narration is known regarding the permissibility of their slaughtered animals, it is indeed a narration from Ikrimah." Ibn Al Darawardi and Ibn Abi Yahya narrated it from Thawr Al-Dili, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, that he was asked about the slaughtered animals of the Christian Arabs, and he answered with a statement attributed to him: "It is permissible." And recite: "And whoever allies himself with them from among you, then indeed, he is one of them." [Al-Ma'idah 51]. However, our companion, may Allah have mercy on him, remained silent regarding the names of Ikrimah and Thawr ibn Zaid. Ibn Abbas did not mention them in most of the narrations from him, as if he did not see them as means of evidence. And Thawr Al-Dili, it is only through him that this narration is known.

وَتَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَمَنْ يَتَوَلَّهُمْ مِنْكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْهُمْ} [المائدة 51] 18803 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ بَالَوَيْهِ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَزَّارُ ثنا خَالِدُ بْنُ خِدَاشٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي مَالِكٌ عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمِثْلِهِ 18804 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَا ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ قَالَ وَالَّذِي يُرْوَى مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي إِحْلَالِ ذَبَائِحِهِمْ إِنَّمَا هُوَ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عِكْرِمَةَ أَخْبَرَنِيهِ ابْنُ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيِّ وَابْنُ أَبِي يَحْيَى عَنْ ثَوْرٍ الدِّيلِيِّ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنْ ذَبَائِحِ نَصَارَى الْعَرَبِ فَقَالَ قَوْلًا حَكَيَاهُ هُوَ إِحْلَالُهَا وَتَلَا {وَمَنْ يَتَوَلَّهُمْ مِنْكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْهُمْ} [المائدة 51] وَلَكِنَّ صَاحِبَنَا سَكَتَ عَنِ اسْمِ عِكْرِمَةَ وَثَوْرٌ لَمْ يَلْقَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ يَعْنِي بِصَاحِبِنَا مَالِكَ بْنَ أَنَسٍ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ عِكْرِمَةَ فِي أَكْثَرِ الرِّوَايَاتِ عَنْهُ وَكَأَنَّهُ كَانَ لَا يَرَى أَنْ يُحْتَجَّ بِهِ وَثَوْرٌ الدِّيلِيُّ إِنَّمَا

[AI] Did you hear that from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? He replied, "Yes." And Abu Zakariya bin Abi Ishaq, Abu Bakr bin al-Hasan, and Abu Sa'id bin Abi 'Amr informed us, they said: Abu al-'Abbas, who is the deaf one, narrated to us that Rabi' bin Sulayman narrated to us from al-Shafi'i, who narrated from Muslim and Abdul Majid and 'Ubaidullah bin al-Harith, from Ibn Juraij, who mentioned it in its meaning. Abu Sa'id added in his narration, al-Shafi'i said, "The meat of hyenas is not sold in Makkah except between Safa and Marwa." Abu al-Husayn bin Bishran al-'Adl informed us in Baghdad, Abu al-Hasan 'Ali bin Muhammad al-Misri narrated to us, 'Ubaidullah bin Sa'id bin 'Ufair narrated to us from 'Abdullah bin Salih, from al-Layth bin Sa'd, he said: 'Abdullah bin Wahb narrated to me from Ibn Juraij. He also narrated from 'Ali, Ahmad bin Hammad narrated, Ibn Abi Maryam narrated, Yahya bin Ayyub narrated to me, Ismail bin Umayyah and Ibn Juraij, and Jarir bin Hazim, that 'Abdullah bin 'Ubayd bin 'Umair narrated to them. 'Abd al-Rahman bin Abi 'Ammar informed me that he asked Jabir bin 'Abdullah about the hyena, and he mentioned it in its manner.

[AI] Bin al-Walid narrated that they both entered the house of Maymuna with the Prophet Muhammad. A roasted lizard was brought, and the Messenger of Allah inclined towards it with his hand. Some of the women in the house of Maymuna said, "Inform the Messenger of Allah about what he wants to eat." They said, "It is a lizard, O Messenger of Allah." So, the Messenger of Allah raised his hand, and I said, "Is it haram?" He said, "No, but it was not found in my people's land, so I find it repulsive." Khalid said, "So I repeated it and ate it, and the Messenger of Allah observed."

بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ ؓ أَنَّهُمَا دَخَلَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بَيْتَ مَيْمُونَةَ فَأُتِيَ بِضَبٍّ مَحْنُوذٍ فَأَهْوَى إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ النِّسْوَةِ اللَّاتِي فِي بَيْتِ مَيْمُونَةَ أَخْبِرُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ فَقَالُوا هُوَ ضَبٌّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَدَهُ فَقُلْتُ أَحَرَامٌ هُوَ؟ فَقَالَ لَا وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِأَرْضِ قَوْمِي فَأَجِدُنِي أَعَافُهُ قَالَ خَالِدٌ فَاجْتَرَرْتُهُ فَأَكَلْتُهُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَنْظُرُ 19413 أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْقَاضِي ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ هُوَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ ؓ أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْتَ مَيْمُونَةَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمِثْلِهِ

I came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ along with a group of Ash'arites requesting to give us a mount. He (the Holy Prophet) said: By Allah, I cannot provide you with a mount, and there is nothing with me which I should give you as a ride. He (the narrator) said: We stayed there as long as Allah willed. Then there were brought to him (to the Holy Prophet) camels. He (the Holy Prophet) then ordered to give us three white humped camels, We started and said (or some of us said to the others): Allah will not bless us. We came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ begging him to provide us with riding camels. He swore that he could not provide us with a mount, but later on he provided us with that. They (some of the Prophet's Companions) came and informed him about this (rankling of theirs), whereupon he said: It was not I who provided you with a mount, but Allah has provided you with that. So far as I am concerned, by Allah, if He so wills, I would not swear, but if, later on, I would see better than it, I (would break the vow) and expiate it and do that which is better. (Using translation from Muslim 1649a)

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي رَهْطٍ مِنَ الْأَشْعَرِيِّينَ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ قَالَ وَاللهِ مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَمَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَلَبِثْنَا مَا شَاءَ اللهُ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِإِبِلٍ فَأَمَرَ لَنَا بِثَلَاثِ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَلَمَّا انْطَلَقْنَا قُلْنَا أَوْ قَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ لَا يُبَارَكُ اللهُ لَنَا أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَحَلَفَ أَنْ لَا يَحْمِلَنَا ثُمَّ حَمَلَنَا فَأَتَوْهُ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ حَمَلَكُمْ إِنِّي وَاللهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ لَا أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ ثُمَّ أَرَى خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلَّا كَفَّرْتُ يَمِينِي وَأَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ خَلَفِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ وَحَدِيثُ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ بِمَعْنَاهُ

[AI] So we were with Abu Musa when he brought us food that included chicken meat, and among the people there was a man with red complexion resembling the Mawali of Taym Allah. Abu Musa said, "Come and eat." I said, "I saw him eating raw meat, so I swore not to feed him ever." Then he said, "I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ eating from it." He then narrated that he came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with a group of Ash'ariyyin who were carrying him. He came to him while he was distributing a share of the Sadaqah camels. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, let us carry him." He was angry and said, "By Allah, I will not let you carry him, nor do I find anything to carry you on." Then he was brought spoils, a unique type of meat. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave us five portions of that unique meat. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, we used to doubt you, but now we will never be successful." So we went to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, you had sworn not to carry us." He said, "I did not carry you, but Allah carried you. By Allah, I do not swear an oath on a certain thing and then see something better than it except that I resort to what is better, and I have freed myself from my previous oath owing to the words of Wuhayb."

فَكُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي مُوسَى فَقَرَّبَ إِلَيْنَا طَعَامًا فِيهِ لَحْمُ دَجَاجٍ وَفِي الْقَوْمِ رَجُلٌ أَحْمَرُ شَبِيهٌ بِالْمَوَالِي مِنْ تَيْمِ اللهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى ادْنُ فَكُلْ يَعْنِي فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُهُ يَأْكُلُ نَتِنًا فَحَلَفْتُ أَنْ لَا أَطْعَمَهُ أَبَدًا فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ حَدَّثَ أَنَّهُ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنَ الْأَشْعَرِيِّينَ يَسْتَحْمِلُهُ فَأَتَاهُ وَهُوَ يَقْسِمُ ذَوْدًا مِنْ إِبِلِ الصَّدَقَةِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ احَمِلْنَا وَهُوَ غَضْبَانُ فَقَالَ وَاللهِ لَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ وَلَا أَجِدُ مَا أَحْمِلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِنَهْبِ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَأَعْطَانَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَمْسَ ذَوْدٍ غُرِّ الذُّرَى فَقُلْتُ تَغَفَّلْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَا نُفْلِحُ أَبَدًا فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كُنْتَ حَلَفْتَ أَنْ لَا تَحْمِلَنَا فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَسْتُ أَنَا حَمَلْتُكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ حَمَلَكُمْ وَاللهِ لَا أَحْلِفُ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَأَرَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا إِلَّا أَتَيْتُ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَتَحَلَّلْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِي لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ وُهَيْبٍ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "O Abdullah bin Samurah, do not ask for leadership, for if you are given it because of asking, you will be held accountable for it. And if you are given it without asking, you will be aided in it. And if you are sworn in an oath and then see something better than it, expiate for your oath and go to what is better."

قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ لَا تَسْأَلِ الْإِمَارَةَ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ أُعْطِيتَهَا عَنْ مَسْأَلَةٍ وُكِلْتَ إِلَيْهَا وَإِنْ أُعْطِيتَهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ مَسْأَلَةٍ أُعِنْتَ عَلَيْهَا وَإِذَا حَلَفْتَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَيْتَ غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَكَفِّرْ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ وَائْتِ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ

[AI] I gave my pledge of allegiance to the Prophet ﷺ , and there remained with him a group of people. I promised him that I would bring them to him in that place. He said, "I am waiting for you here from three days ago." He mentioned this with regard to Abdullah ibn Shaaqiq, narrated from his father. And Abu Abdullah al-Haafiz, Abu Bakr al-Qaadi, and Abu Abdullah al-Sulami narrated from Abu al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub, narrated from Abu Umayyah, narrated from Muhammad ibn Sinaan al-Basri, narrated from Ibrahim ibn Tahman, narrated from Budayl ibn Maisarah, narrated from Abdul Kareem, narrated from Abdullah ibn Shaaqiq, narrated from his father, narrated from Abdullah ibn Abi al-Hamsa. He said, "I gave my pledge of allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ before he was sent as a prophet." And he mentioned this narration in its essence. And Abu Ali al-Rudhbari narrated from Abu Bakr ibn Dassah, narrated from Abu Dawood, narrated from Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Naysaburi, narrated from Muhammad ibn Sinaan, and he mentioned this narration. Abu Dawood said, "Muhammad ibn Yahya said, 'This is attributed to Abdul Kareem ibn Abdullah ibn Shaaqiq.' Sheikh Ahmad, may Allah have mercy on him, narrated it. And Ibrahim ibn Hane' narrated it from Muhammad ibn Sinaan, and he said it was narrated by Mu'adh ibn Hane' from Ibrahim ibn Tahman, and there was no doubt about Abdullah ibn Abi al-Hamsa."
