ahmad:22783ʿAbdullāh > Abū Ṣāliḥ al-Ḥakam b. Mūsá > Hiql / Ibn Ziyād > al-Awzāʿī

[Machine] I entered the mosque in Hims and sat in a gathering where there were thirty-two men who were companions of the Prophet ﷺ . One of them would say, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say," and then the other would say, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say," and so on. Among them was a man with a striking appearance. Whenever they had any doubts about something, they would refer it to him and be satisfied with what he said. I had never sat before or after this gathering that was like it. The people dispersed, and I didn't know the name or rank of any of them. I spent the night as I had never spent such a night before. I said to myself, "I am a man seeking knowledge, and I sat with the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ without knowing the name or rank of any of them." When morning came, I went to the mosque and found myself with the man they used to refer to when they had doubts. He was bowing on some pillars of the mosque, so I sat next to him. When he finished praying, I said to him, "O Abdullah, by Allah, I love you for the sake of Allah." He held me tightly until it hurt, then asked, "Do you really love me for the sake of Allah?" I said, "By Allah, I do love you for the sake of Allah." He said, "Then I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'The people who love each other for the sake of Allah will be under the shade of Allah's Throne on a day when there will be no shade except His shade.'" I got up from beside him and found myself with a man from the group who used to be with him. I said to him, "I have heard a hadith from that man who said, 'He does not speak except the truth.'" He replied, "I have also heard that hadith, and I have heard even better hadiths from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ where he mentioned my name. My love for those who love each other for the sake of Allah is true, and my love for those who strive for my sake is true, and my love for those who meet each other for my sake is true." I asked him, "Who are you? May Allah have mercy on you." He replied, "I am Ubada bin Samit." I asked him, "Who is that man?" He replied, "Muadh bin Jabal."

darimi:1516Isḥaq b. Ibrāhīm > Muʿādh b. Hishām from my father > Qatādah > Zurārah b. Awfá > Saʿd b. Hishām

I divorced my wife. I then came to Medina to sell my land that was there so that I could buy arms and fight in battle. I met a group of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ. They said: Six persons of us intended to do so (i.e. divorce their wives and purchase weapons), but the Prophet ﷺ prohibited them. He said: For you in the Messenger of Allah there is an excellent model. I then came to Ibn 'Abbas and asked him about the witr observed by the Prophet ﷺ. He said: I point to you a person who is most familiar with the witr observed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Go to 'Aishah. While going to her I asked Hakim b. Aflah to accompany me. He refused, but I adjured him. He, therefore, went along with me. We sought permission to enter upon 'Aishah. She said: Who is this ? He said: Hakim b. Aflah. She asked: Who is with you ? He replied: Sa'd b. Hisham. She said: Hisham son of 'Amir who was killed in the Battle of Uhud. I said: Yes. She said: What a good man 'Amir was! I said: Mother of faithful, tell me about the character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She asked: Do you not recite the Quran ? The character of Messenger of Allah ﷺ was the Qur'an. I asked: Tell me about his vigil and prayer at night. She replied: Do you not recite: "O thou folded in garments" (73:1). I said: Why not ? When the opening of this Surah was revealed, the Companions stood praying (most of the night) until their fett swelled, and the concluding verses were not revealed for twelve months from heaven. At last the concluding verses were revealed and the prayer at night became voluntary after it was obligatory. I said: Tell me about the witr of the Prophet ﷺ. She replied: He used to pray eight rak'ahs, sitting only during the eighth of them. Then he would stand up and pray another rak'ahs. He would sit only after the eighth and the ninth rak'ahs. He would utter salutation only after the ninth rak'ah. He would then pray two rak'ahs sitting and that made eleven rak'ahs, O my son. But when he grew old and became fleshy he observed a witr of seven, sitting only in sixth and seventh rak'ahs, and would utter salutation only after the seventh rak'ah. He would then pray two rak'ahs sitting, and that made nine rak'ahs, O my son. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would not pray through a whole night, or recite the whole Qur'an in a night or fast a complete month except in Ramadan. When he offered prayer, he would do that regularly. When he was overtaken by sleep at night, he would pray twelve rak'ahs. The narrator said: I came to Ibn 'Abbas and narrated all this to him. By Allah, this is really a tradition. Has I been on speaking terms with her, I would have come to her and heard it from her mouth. I said: If I knew that you were not on speaking terms with her, I would have never narrated it to you.

that he remembered Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he also remembered a mouthful of water which he had thrown on his face, after taking it from a well that was in their house. Mahmud said that he had heard ʿItban bin Malik, who was present with Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the battle of Badr saying, "I used to lead my people at Bani Salim in the prayer and there was a valley between me and those people. Whenever it rained it used to be difficult for me to cross it to go to their mosque. So I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'I have weak eyesight and the valley between me and my people flows during the rainy season and it becomes difficult for me to cross it; I wish you would come to my house and pray at a place so that I could take that place as a praying place.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I will do so.' So Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr came to my house in the (next) morning after the sun had risen high. Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked my permission to let him in and I admitted him. He did not sit before saying, 'Where do you want us to offer the prayer in your house?' I pointed to the place where I wanted him to pray. So Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up for the prayer and started the prayer with Takbir and we aligned in rows behind him; and he offered two rakʿat, and finished them with Taslim, and we also performed Taslim with him. I detained him for a meal called "Khazir" which I had prepared for him.--("Khazir" is a special type of dish prepared from barley flour and meat soup)-- When the neighbors got the news that Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in my house, they poured it till there were a great number of men in the house. One of them said, 'What is wrong with Malik, for I do not see him?' One of them replied, 'He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Apostle.' On that Allah's Apostle said, 'Don't say this. Haven't you seen that he said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah for Allah's sake only.' The man replied, 'Allah and His Apostle know better; but by Allah, we never saw him but helping and talking with the hypocrites.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, 'No doubt, whoever says. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and by that he wants the pleasures of Allah, then Allah will save him from Hell." Mahmud added, "I told the above narration to some people, one of whom was Abu Aiyub, the companion of Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the battle in which he (Abu Aiyub) died and Yazid bin Mu'awiya was their leader in Roman Territory. Abu Aiyub denounced the narration and said, 'I doubt that Messenger of Allah ﷺ ever said what you have said.' I felt that too much, and I vowed to Allah that if I remained alive in that holy battle, I would (go to Medina and) ask ʿItban bin Malik if he was still living in the mosque of his people. So when he returned, I assumed Ihram for Hajj or ʿUmra and then I proceeded on till I reached Medina. I went to Bani Salim and ʿItban bin Malik, who was by then an old blind man, was leading his people in the prayer. When he finished the prayer, I greeted him and introduced myself to him and then asked him about that narration. He told that narration again in the same manner as he had narrated it the first time."

أَنَّهُ عَقَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَقَلَ مَجَّةً مَجَّهَا مِنْ دَلْوٍ كَانَتْ فِي دَارِهِمْ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عِتْبَانَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ ثُمَّ أَحَدَ بَنِي سَالِمٍ يَقُولُ كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي لِقَوْمِي بَنِي سَالِمٍ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنِّي قَدْ أَنْكَرْتُ بَصَرِي وَإِنَّ السُّيُولَ تَحُولَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ مَسْجِدِ قَوْمِي فَلَوَدِدْتُ أَنَّكَ جِئْتَ فَصَلَّيْتَ فِي بَيْتِي مَكَانًا أَتَّخِذُهُ مَسْجِدًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَفْعَلً إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى» فَغَدَا عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ مَعَهُ بَعْدَمَا اشْتَدَّ النَّهَارُ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَذِنْتُ لَهُ فَلَمْ يَجْلِسْ حَتَّى قَالَ «أَيْنَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ مِنْ بَيْتِكَ؟» فَأَشَرْتُ لَهُ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي أُحِبُّ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ فِيهِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَصَفَفَنَا خَلْفَهُ ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ وَسَلَّمْنَا حِينَ يُسَلِّمُ فَحَبَسْنَاهُ عَلَى خَزِيرٍ صُنِعَ لَهُ فَسَمِعَ بِهِ أَهْلُ الدَّارِ فَثَابُوا حَتَّى امْتَلَأَ الْبَيْتُ [407] فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ أَيْنَ مَالِكُ بْنُ الدُّخْشُمِ؟ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَّا ذَاكَ رَجُلٌ مُنَافِقٌ لَا يُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَلَا تَقُولُونَهُ يَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ يَبْتَغِي بِذَلِكَ وَجْهَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنُرَى وَجْهَهُ وَحَدِيثَهُ إِلَى الْمُنَافِقِينَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيْضًا أَلَا تَقُولُونَهُ يَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ يَبْتَغِي بِذَلِكَ وَجْهَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى أَرَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَنْ يُوَافِيَ عَبْدٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ يَبْتَغِي بِذَلِكَ وَجْهَ اللهِ إِلَّا حَرَّمَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ النَّارَ قَالَ مَحْمُودٌ فَحَدَّثْتُ قَوْمًا فِيهِمْ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَزْوَتِهِ الَّتِي تُوُفِّيَ فِيهَا مَعَ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ وَقَالَ مَا أَظُنُّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا قُلْتَ قَطُّ فَكَبُرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ فَجَعَلْتُ لِلَّهِ عَلَيَّ إِنْ سَلَّمَنِي حَتَّى أَقْفُلَ مِنْ غَزْوَتِي أَنْ أَسْأَلَ عَنْهَا عِتْبَانَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ إِنْ وَجَدْتُهُ حَيًّا فَأَهْلَلْتُ مِنْ إِيلِيَاءَ بِحَجٍّ وَعُمْرَةٍ حَتَّى قَدِمُتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَأَتَيْتُ بَنِي سَالِمٍ فَإِذَا عِتْبَانُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ قَدْ ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهُ وَهُوَ إِمَامُ قَوْمِهِ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ جِئْتُهُ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَخْبَرْتُهُ مَنْ أَنَا فَحَدَّثَنِي كَمَا حَدَّثَنِي بِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ 10882 أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ الْحُصَيْنَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ وَهُوَ أَحَدُ بَنِي سَالِمٍ وَهُوَ مِنْ سَرَاتِهِمْ عَنْ حَدِيثِ مَحْمُودٍ فَصَدَّقَهُ بِذَلِكَ
