Collected by Muslim, Abū Dāwūd, Ibn Mājah, Aḥmad, Ḥākim, Ibn Ḥibbān, Ṭabarānī, Nasāʾī's Kubrá, Bazzār, Aḥmad's Zuhd, SuyūṭīWhat is this hadith that you narrate that the Last Hour would come at such and such time? Thereupon he said: Hallowed be Allah, there is no god but Allah (or the words to the same effect). I have decided that I would not narrate anything to anyone now. I had only said that you would see after some time an important event that the (sacred) House (Ka'ba) would be burnt and it would happen and definitely happen. He then reported that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The Dajjal would appear in my Ummah and he would stay (in the world) for forty - I cannot say whether he meant forty days, forty months or forty years. And Allah would then send Jesus son of Mary who would resemble 'Urwa b Mas'ud. He (Jesus Christ) would chase him and kill him. Then people would live for seven years that there would be no rancour between two persons. Then Allah would send cold wind from the side of Syria that none would survive upon the earth having a speck of good in him or faith in him but he would die, so much so that even if some amongst you were to enter the innermost part of the mountain, this wind would reach that place also and that would cause his death. I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Only the wicked people would survive and they would be as careless as birds with the characteristics of beasts. They would never appreciate the good nor condemn evil. Then Satan would come to them in human form and would say: Don't you respond? And they would say: What do you order us? And he would command them to worship the idols but, in spite of this, they would have abundance of sustenance and lead comfortable lives. Then the trumpet would be blown and no one would hear that but he would bend his neck to one side and raise it from the other side and the first one to hear that trumpet would be the person who would be busy in setting right the tank meant for providing water to the camels. He would swoon and the other people would also swoon, then Allah would send or He would cause to send rain which would be like dew and there would grow out of it the bodies of the people. Then the second trumpet would be blown and they would stand up and begin to look (around). Then it would be said: O people, go to your Lord, and make them stand there. And they would be questioned. Then it would be said: Bring out a group (out of them) for the Hell-Fire. And then it would be asked: How much? It would be said: Nine hundred and ninty-nine out of one thousand for the Hell-Fire and that would be the day which would make the children old because of its terror and that would be the day about which it has been said: "On the day when the shank would be uncovered" (lxviii. 42).

We marched upon Khaibar with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. We journeyed during the night. One of the people said to (my brother) 'Amir b. al-Akwa': Won't you recite to us some of your verses? Amir was a poet. So he began to chant his verses to urge the camels, reciting: O God, if Thou hadst not guided us We would have neither been guided rightly nor practised charity, Nor offered prayers. We wish to lay down our lives for Thee; so forgive Thou our lapses, And keep us steadfast when we encounter (our enemies). Bestow upon us peace and tranquillity. Behold, when with a cry they called upon us to help. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Who is this driver (of the camels)? They said: It is 'Amir. He said: God will show mercy to him. A man said: Martyrdom is reserved for him. Messenger of Allah, would that you had allowed us to benefit ourselves from his life. (The narrator says): We reached Khaibar and besieged them, and (we continued the siege) until extreme hunger afflicted us. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Behold, God has conquered it for you. When it was evening of the day on which the city was conquered. the Muslims lit many fires. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: What are these fires? And what are they cooking? They said: They are cooking meat. He asked. Which meat? They said: That of domestic asses. He said: Let them throw it away and break the pots (in which it is being cooked). A man said: Or should they throw it away and wash the pots? He said: They may do that. When the people drew themselves up in battle array 'Amir caught hold of his sword that was rather short He drove a Jew before him to strike him with it. (As he struck him), his sword recoiled and struck his own knee, and 'Amir died of the wound. When the people returned (after the conquest of Kliaibar) and he (Salama) had caught hold of my hand, and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw that I was silent (and dejected) ; he said: What's the matter with thee? I said to him: My father and my mother be thy ransom, people presume that 'Amir's sacrifice has been in vain. He asked: Who has said that? I said: So and so and Usaid b. Hudair al-Ansari. He said: Who has said that has lied. For him (for 'Amir) there is a double reward. (He indicated this by putting two of his fingers together.) He was a devotee of God and a warrior fighting for His cause. There will be hardly any Arab who can fight as bravely as he did. Qutaiba has differed in a few words.

Prayer passed through three stages. And out people narrated to us that Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said; it is to my liking that the prayer of Muslims or believers should be united (i.e., in congregation), so much so that I intended to send people to the houses to announce the time of prayer; and I also resolved that I should order people to stand at (the tops of) the forts and announce the time of the prayer for Muslims; and they struck the bell or were about to strike the bell (to announce the time for prayer). Then came a person from among the Ansar who said: Messenger of Allah, when I returned from you, as I saw your anxiety. I saw (in sleep) a person with two green clothes on him; he stood on the mosque and called (people) to prayer. He then sat down for a short while and stood up and pronounced in a like manner, except that he added: “The time for prayer has come”. If the people did not call me (a liar), and according to the version of Ibn al-Muthanna, if you did not call me (a liar). I would say that I was awake; I was awake; I was not asleep. The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said: According to the version of Ibn al-Muthanna, Allah has shown you a good (dream). But the version of ‘Amr does not have the words: Allah has shown you a good (dream). Then ask Bilal to pronounce the ADHAN (to call to the prayer). ‘Umar (in the meantime) said: I also had a dream like the one he had. But as he informed earlier. I was ashamed (to inform). Our people have narrated to us: when a person came (to the mosque during the prayer in congregation), he would ask (about the RAKAHS of prayer), and he would be informed about the number of RAKAHS already performed. They would stand (in prayer) along with the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him): some in standing position; others bowing; some sitting and some praying along with the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him). Ibn al-Muthanna reported from ‘Amr from Hussain b. Abi Laila, saying ; Until Mu’adh came. Shu’bah said ; I heard it from Hussain who said : I shall follow the position (in the prayer in which I find him (the prophet)). . . you should do in a similar way. Abu Dawud said: I then turned to the tradition reported by ‘Amr b. Marzuq he said; then Ma’adh came and they (the people) hinted at him. Shu’bah said; I heard it from hussain who said: Mu’adh then said; I shall follow the position (in the prayer when I join it) in which I find him (the prophet). He then said: Mu’adh has prayer when I join it in which I find him (the prophet). He then said: MU’adh has introduced for you a SUNNAH (a model behaviour), so you should do in a like manner. He said; our people have narrated to us; when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Madina, he commanded them (the people) to keep fast for three days. Thereafter the Quranic verses with regard to the fasts during Ramadan were revealed. But they were people who were not accustomed to keep fast ; hence the keeping of the fasts was hard for them; so those who could not keep fast would feed an indigent; then the month”. The concession was granted to the patient and the traveler; all were commanded to keep fast.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَقَدْ أَعْجَبَنِي أَنْ تَكُونَ صَلاَةُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَوْ قَالَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَاحِدَةً حَتَّى لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أَبُثَّ رِجَالاً فِي الدُّورِ يُنَادُونَ النَّاسَ بِحِينِ الصَّلاَةِ وَحَتَّى هَمَمْتُ أَنْ آمُرَ رِجَالاً يَقُومُونَ عَلَى الآطَامِ يُنَادُونَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بِحِينِ الصَّلاَةِ حَتَّى نَقَسُوا أَوْ كَادُوا أَنْ يَنْقُسُوا قَالَ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَمَّا رَجَعْتُ لِمَا رَأَيْتُ مِنَ اهْتِمَامِكَ رَأَيْتُ رَجُلاً كَأَنَّ عَلَيْهِ ثَوْبَيْنِ أَخْضَرَيْنِ فَقَامَ عَلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَأَذَّنَ ثُمَّ قَعَدَ قَعْدَةً ثُمَّ قَامَ فَقَالَ مِثْلَهَا إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ يَقُولُ قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلاَةُ وَلَوْلاَ أَنْ يَقُولَ النَّاسُ قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى أَنْ تَقُولُوا لَقُلْتُ إِنِّي كُنْتُ يَقْظَانًا غَيْرَ نَائِمٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى لَقَدْ أَرَاكَ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا وَلَمْ يَقُلْ عَمْرٌو لَقَدْ أَرَاكَ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا فَمُرْ بِلاَلاً فَلْيُؤَذِّنْ قَالَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَمَا إِنِّي قَدْ رَأَيْتُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي رَأَى وَلَكِنِّي لَمَّا سُبِقْتُ اسْتَحْيَيْتُ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا أَصْحَابُنَا قَالَ وَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ إِذَا جَاءَ يَسْأَلُ فَيُخْبَرُ بِمَا سُبِقَ مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ وَإِنَّهُمْ قَامُوا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ بَيْنِ قَائِمٍ وَرَاكِعٍ وَقَاعِدٍ وَمُصَلٍّ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ عَمْرٌو وَحَدَّثَنِي بِهَا حُصَيْنٌ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى حَتَّى جَاءَ مُعَاذٌ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ حُصَيْنٍ فَقَالَ لاَ أَرَاهُ عَلَى حَالٍ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ كَذَلِكَ فَافْعَلُوا
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed one day, and ascended the pulpit, and he never used to ascend it, before that, except on Fridays. The people were alarmed by that, and some were standing and some were sitting. He gestured to them with his hand, telling them to sit. (Then he said:) 'By Allah, I am not standing here for something that will benefit you, an exhortation or warning. Rather Tamim Dari has come to me and told me something that prevented me from taking a rest because of the joy and delight (I felt), and I wanted to spread that joy among you. A cousin of Tamim Dari told me that the wind drove them to an island that they did not know, so they sat in the rowing boats of the ship and set out. There they saw something black, with long eyelashes. They said to it: "What are you?" It said: "I am Jassasah," They said: "Tell us." It said: "I will not tell you anything or ask you anything. Rather there is this monastery that you have looked at. Go to it, for there is a man there who is longing to hear your news and tell you news." So they went there and entered upon him, and they saw an old man firmly shackled, with a sorrowful appearance and complaining a great deal. He said to them: "Where have you come from?" They said: "From Sham." He said: "How are the Arabs faring?" They said: "We are from among the Arabs. What do you want to ask about?" He said: "What has this man done who has appeared among you?" They said: "(He has done) well. He made enemies of some people, but Allah supported him against them and now they have become one, with one God and one religion." He said: "What happened to the spring of Zughar?" They said: "It is good; we irrigate out crops from it and drink from it." He said: "What happened to the date-palms between 'Amman and Baisan?" They said: "They bear fruit every year." He said: "What happened to the Lake of Tiberias?" They said: "It overflows because of the abundance of water." He gave three deep sighs, then he said: "If I were to free myself from these chains, I would not leave any land without entering it on these two feet of mine, except for Taibah, for I have no way to enter it." The Prophet ﷺ said: 'My joy is so great. This (Al-Madinah) is Taibah, and by the One in Whose Hand is my soul, there is no narrow or broad road in it, or any plain or mountain, but there is an angel (standing) over it with his sword unsheathed, until the Day of Resurrection.'"

[Machine] The sons of Mulayka came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Indeed, our mother used to honor her husband and show kindness to her children." The Prophet said, "And she used to mention the guest, but she used to commit acts during the era of ignorance." He said, "Your mother is in the Hellfire." So they turned away, and the grief was visible on their faces. The Prophet commanded them to be called back, so they returned and joy was visible on their faces, hoping that something had happened. The Prophet said, "Your mother is with your mother." A man from the hypocrites said, "This does not benefit him anything about his mother, while we are stepping forward." A man from the Ansar said, "I have never seen a man ask more questions than him, O Messenger of Allah. Did your Lord promise you something concerning her or concerning both of them?" He thought that he had heard something, so he said, "I have not asked my Lord about it, nor did He cause me to expect it. But indeed, I will be given the praiseworthy position on the Day of Resurrection." The Ansari man said, "And what is that praiseworthy position?" He said, "That is when you are brought forth barefoot, naked and uncircumcised, and then Abraham will be the first to clothe you and say, 'Clothe my close friend.' Then two white robes will be brought, so wear them." Then he said, "Then he will sit to face the Throne, and then my garment will be brought, so I will wear it. Then I will stand on his right side in a position that no one else will occupy. The early ones and the late ones will envy me because of it." He said, "And a river of Al-Kawthar will be opened to the Basin." The hypocrites said, "Indeed, no water has ever flowed except on a slope or a surface." He said, "A slope is its state, and a surface is its gloomy state." The hypocrite said, "I have never heard, as I have today, that water flowed on a slope or a surface without having vegetation." The Ansari man said, "O Messenger of Allah, does it have vegetation?" He said, "Yes, its pipes are made of gold." The hypocrite said, "I have never heard, as I have today, that a rod grew without having leaves, and unless it had fruit." The Ansari man said, "O Messenger of Allah, does it have fruit?" He said, "Yes, the colors of precious gems, and its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. Indeed, whoever drinks from it will never be thirsty again, and whoever is deprived of it will never be satisfied again."

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , it is narrated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out one day and performed the prayer of migration, then he sat down. The people became startled, so he said, "Sit down, O people, for I did not rise from my place due to fear. Rather, Tamim Ad-Dari came to me and informed me of news that prevented me from experiencing joy and comfort. I wanted to share with you the joy of your Prophet. He informed me that a group from his cousins, the Banu 'Amir, had embarked on the sea, and they were struck by a violent wind. The wind brought them to an island they did not recognize. They sat in their boat until they arrived at the island. Then, they found a creature with a lot of hair that they were unsure if it was a man or a woman. They greeted it, and it returned their greeting. They said, 'Will you not inform us?' It said, 'I do not inform you, nor do I seek information from you. But in this monastery, there is someone who longingly awaits to inform you and seek information from you.' They said, 'Who are you?' It said, 'I am Al-Jassasah.' So, they set off until they reached the monastery. There, they found a man chained up, heavily bound, showing signs of great sadness and complaining a lot. They greeted him, and he returned their greetings. They asked him, 'Who are you?' He said, 'I am from the Arabs.' They asked, 'What have the Arabs done?' He said, 'Has their Prophet come forth after me?' They said, 'Yes.' He asked, 'What have they done?' They said, 'They have believed in him and affirmed him.' He said, 'That is good for them.' He had an enemy, and Allah exposed him to them. They asked, 'Are the Arabs today with one God, one religion, and one word?' They said, 'Yes.' He asked, 'What has happened to the spring of Zughar?' They said, 'The people drink from it, and their crops are irrigated by it.' He asked, 'What has happened to the date palm tree between 'Ammān and Bayt al-Maqdis?' They said, 'It produces fruit every year.' He asked, 'What has happened to the lake of Tabariyyah?' They said, 'It is full.' He sighed deeply, then sighed deeply again, then sighed deeply a third time. He swore, 'By the One in Whose Hands is the Life of Muhammad, it is as though if I were to leave my place right now, I would not leave behind any land belonging to Allah, except that I would tread upon it, except for Taibah. There is no authority for me over it.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'So, thus my joy reaches its peak. Surely, Allah has made Mecca and Medina sacred, and forbidden for the Dajjal to enter. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ swore, 'By the One besides whom there is no deity, there is no path, narrow or wide, in the east which is not guarded by an appointed angel with a drawn sword until the Day of Resurrection. The Dajjal will not be able to enter upon its inhabitants.' 'Amir commented, 'So, I met Al-Muharrir ibn Abi Hurayrah, and I narrated this Hadith to him. He said, 'I bear witness by my father that he narrated to me as you have narrated from Fatimah bint Qays.' However, he said, 'The two sanctuaries are sacred: Makkah and Medina.'

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ once came quickly to the pulpit and called out to the people to gather for the congregational prayer. The people gathered and he said, "O people, I did not call you out of desire or fear. Rather, Tamim the Dari informed me that a group of people from Palestine boarded a ship, but were thrown by the winds to an island among the islands of the sea. There, they encountered a beast with thick hair. It is not known whether it is male or female because of the abundance of its hair. They asked, 'Who are you?' and it replied, 'I am the Jassasah.' They asked it to inform them, but it replied, 'I am not an informer or one who seeks information. However, in this monastery, there is a poor man who longs to inform you and seek information from you.' So they entered the monastery and found a man chained with iron. They asked, 'Who are you?' and he said, 'We are the Arabs.' He asked them, 'Has the Prophet been sent among you?' and they replied, 'Yes.' He asked, 'Have the Arabs obeyed him?' and they replied, 'Yes.' He said, 'That is good for them.' He asked, 'What has Persia done?' and they answered, 'It has not appeared on it yet.' He said, 'Indeed, it will appear on it.' Then he asked, 'What has happened to Zughar?' and they replied, 'It is flowing abundantly.' He asked, 'What has happened to the palm trees of Baysan?' and they replied, 'They have been fertilized.' He then jumped away until we thought he would slip away, so we asked, 'Who are you?' and he replied, 'I am the Dajjal (the Antichrist). Indeed, I will travel throughout the entire earth except Makkah and Madinah.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Rejoice, O Muslims. This is the land of Tayyiba (Madinah) that he cannot enter.'"

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, she said: One day, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out and prayed the prayer of migration, then he sat down. The people became startled, so he said, "Sit, O people, for I did not rise from my place due to fear, but rather Tamim Ad-Dari came to me and informed me of news that deprived me of sleep and comfort. So I wanted to share with you the joy of your Prophet ﷺ. He informed me that a group from his relatives, the Banu 'Amir, rode the sea and a fierce wind overcame them. The wind pushed them towards an unknown island. They sat in wooden boats until they reached the island. Then they found a creature with a lot of hair, not knowing if it was a man or a woman. They greeted the creature with salaam, and the creature replied with salaam. They said, 'Can you inform us?' The creature replied, 'I am not here to inform you or ask for information. However, this monastery became a hardship for you. Inside, there is someone who has been yearning to tell you and ask you about their fate. They said, 'Who are you?' She said, 'I am the spy.' So they went until they reached the monastery. There they found a man who was severely bound, showing a lot of sadness and complaining. They greeted him, and he replied, asking, 'Who are you?' They said, 'We are from the Arabs.' He said, 'What have the Arabs done? Did their Prophet emerge?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'What did they do?' They said, 'They believed in him and affirmed his truthfulness.' He said, 'That is better for them.' He had an enemy, and Allah made him manifest to them. He said, 'So are the Arabs today united in their religion and their word?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'So what did the spring of Zughar do?' They said, 'It is wholesome. Its people drink from it, and their crops are irrigated by it.' He said, 'So what did the palm tree between 'Amman and Bayt Al-Maqdis do?' They said, 'Good. Its vegetation feeds its camels every year.' He said, 'So what did the Lake of Tiberias do?' They said, 'Full.' He said, 'So it sighed, and sighed, and sighed, and then he swore by Allah who there is none worthy of worship except Him, 'By Allah, there is no narrow road or wide road in the flat or mountain except that there is an angel holding a drawn sword until the Day of Resurrection, preventing Ad-Dajjal from entering it.' He said, 'Then I met Al-Muharrar bin Abi Hurayrah, and I informed him of the Hadith of Fatimah bint Qays. He testified to what I testified, except that he said, 'I bear witness that 'Aishah also narrated to me like she narrated to you, Fatimah.' Except that she said, 'The two sanctuaries are sacred: Makkah and Al-Madinah.'"

[Machine] "I came to the Prophet ﷺ and he presented Islam to me. So, I accepted Islam and he taught me some verses from the Qur'an. Then, I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I have performed some deeds during the time of ignorance. Will there be any reward for me?' He asked, 'What did you do?' I replied, 'I lost two she-camels and I followed them on a camel of mine until I found two houses in the middle of nowhere. I intended to claim them but I found an elderly man in one of them. I asked him if he had seen my two she-camels and he said, 'Yes, we found them and sold them. Allah has blessed us with them and they have benefited two families from your people, the Arabs, from the Mudar tribe.' While he was talking to me, a woman from the other house called out that she had given birth. He asked about the gender of the child, and if it was a boy, it would have been considered a part of their family. But if it was a girl, he requested me to bury her. The woman gave birth to a girl, so I asked, 'What is this newborn?' He replied, 'She is my daughter.' I said, 'I will buy her from you.' He then said, 'O brother from the Banu Tamim tribe, would you buy my daughter, while I am a man from the Arabs, from the Mudar tribe?' I responded, 'I will not buy her as a slave, but I will buy her to set her free. I will not allow her to be killed.' He asked, 'What will you give in exchange?' I said, 'I will give you my two she-camels and their offspring, and you will also receive my camel as an addition to the deal.' He agreed and said, 'In that case, send someone with me as a witness.' When I reached my people, I would return your camel to you.' However, during the night, I thought to myself that this was a great opportunity and no Arab had seized it before me. Islam has emerged and I have benefited from it by acquiring 366 camels in return. Each of them was bought with two she-camels and a camel. Will I receive any reward for that?' The Prophet ﷺ replied, 'You will be rewarded for it, as Allah has bestowed His blessings upon you through Islam.'" [This narration was considered as reliable by Imam Al-Dhahabi].

[Machine] I heard Fatimah bint Qays saying: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ascended the pulpit and praised Allah and glorified Him. Then he said, 'I warn you against the Dajjal (the Antichrist), for no prophet was sent before me who did not warn his nation against him. He is indeed among you, and indeed the sign of a restoration of a red hair, which she (the story-teller) mentioned. They added, 'Tell us'! She replied, 'I am not informing you about anything, neither am I asking you, but go to the monastery, for there is a man who yearns to meet you.' So they went to the monastery and there they found a man chained between two iron columns. The Prophet asked, 'Where are you from and who are you?' They replied, 'We are from the people of the Levant.' He asked, 'Who are you?' They replied, 'We are Arabs.' He asked, 'What are the Arabs doing?' They said, 'They have among them a Prophet in the land of Taimah.' He asked, 'What are the people doing?' They replied, 'Some of them believe him and some of them deny him.' He said, 'If they believe in him and follow him, it is good for them, if they only knew.' Then he asked, 'What are your houses made of?' They replied, 'They are made of hair and wool spun by our women.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity! Then he asked, 'What has happened to Tabariyyah?' They replied, 'Its waters flow in all directions and whoever comes to it can take from it.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity!' Then he asked, 'What has happened to your spring Zughar?' They replied, 'Its waters flow in all directions and whoever comes to it can take from it.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity!' Then he asked, 'What has happened to the date-palm of Baysan?' They replied, 'Its fruit is taken.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity! By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, if I have been released from these fetters, I would have destroyed every house of Baysan except the mosques of Makkah and Al-Madinah, as they hinder the Dajjal from entering them until the Day of Resurrection.'"

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ came hastily one day and ascended the pulpit. He announced to the people to gather for the congregational prayer, so the people gathered. He said, "O people, I did not invite you out of desire or fear, but Tamim Ad-Dari informed me that some people from the people of Palestine took a boat and were cast by the wind onto an island from the islands of the sea. There, they found a creature, neither male nor female, from the abundance of hair. They asked, 'Who are you?' It said, 'I am Al-Jassasah.' They asked, 'Inform us.' It said, 'I am not a informer or a seeker of information from you, but there is someone here who is poor and wants to inform you and ask you.' So, they went to a monastery and found a man, heavily chained with iron. They asked, 'Who are you?' He said, 'We are the Arabs.' They asked, 'Has the Prophet been sent among you?' They replied, 'Yes.' He asked, 'Have the Arabs obeyed him?' They replied, 'Yes.' He said, 'That is good for them.' He asked, 'What did Persia do?' They replied, 'It has declined.' He said, 'Has Byzantium been defeated?' They replied, 'It has not been defeated.' He said, 'It will soon be defeated until it is humiliated.' He asked, 'What did `Ubaydullah do?' They replied, 'He is a righteous man.' He said, 'What did a Dabbah (wild animal) do?' They replied, 'Its qualities appeared, so we feared that it might overpower us.' He asked, 'What did the date-palm tree of Bisan (Palestine) do?' They replied, 'It irrigated the first.' He said, 'Then it will remain like that.' He asked, 'Who are you?' They said, 'We are the Muslims.' He said, 'Give the good news to the Muslim community that this is Taibah (Madinah) which no one can enter except a believer.'
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ جَاءَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ مُسْرِعًا فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَنُودِيَ فِي النَّاسِ الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةً فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي لَمْ أَدْعُكُمْ لِرَغْبَةٍ وَلَا لِرَهْبَةٍ نَزَلَتْ وَلَكِنَّ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ أَهْلِ فِلَسْطِينَ رَكِبُوا الْبَحْرَ فَقَذَفَتْهُمُ الرِّيحُ إِلَى جَزِيرَةٍ مِنْ جَزَائِرِ الْبَحْرِ فَإِذَا هُمْ بِدَابَّةٍ لَا يُدْرَى أَذَكَرٌ هُوَ أَمْ أُنْثَى مِنْ كَثْرَةِ الشَّعْرِ فَقَالُوا مَنْ أَنْتِ؟ قَالَتْ أَنَا الْجَسَّاسَةُ قَالُوا أَخْبِرِينَا؟ قَالَتْ مَا أَنَا بِمُخْبِرَتِكُمْ وَلَا مُسْتَخْبِرَتِكُمْ وَلَكِنَّ هَاهُنَا مَنْ هُوَ فَقِيرٌ إِلَى أَنْ يُخْبِرَكُمْ وَإِلَى أَنْ يَسْتَخْبِرَكُمْ فَأَتَوَا الدَّيْرَ فَإِذَا بِرَجُلٍ مَرِيرٍ مُصَفَّدٍ بِالْحَدِيدِ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَنْتُمْ؟ قَالُوا نَحْنُ الْعَرَبُ قَالَ هَلْ بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ فَهَلْ تَبِعَتْهُ الْعَرَبُ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ ذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ فَارِسُ؟ قَالُوا لَمْ يَظْهَرْ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ سَيَظْهَرُ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ عَيْنُ زُغَرَ؟ قَالُوا تَدَفَّقُ مَلْأَى قَالَ فَمَا فَعَلَ نَخْلُ بَيْسَانَ؟ قَالُوا قَدْ أَطْعَمَ أَوَائِلُهُ فَوَثَبَ عَلَيْهِ وَثْبَةً حَتَّى خَشِينَا أَنْ سَيَغْلِبَ فَقُلْنَا مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ أَنَا الدَّجَّالُ أَمَا إِنِّي سَأَطَأُ الْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا إِلَّا مَكَّةَ وَطَيْبَةَ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَبْشِرُوا مَعْشَرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ هَذِهِ طَيْبَةُ لَا يَدْخُلُهَا»

[Machine] “He entrusted me with the speech, so we said, ‘O Abu Abdur-Rahman, some people have appeared among us who recite the Quran excessively and seek knowledge excessively. They claim that there is no predestination and that everything is a result of mere chance.’ He said, ‘If you meet them, inform them that I disassociate myself from them and they disassociate themselves from me.’ Ibn Umar swore an oath that if any of them were to spend gold equal to Uhud, it would not be accepted from him unless he believed in predestination. Then he said, ‘Umar ibn Al-Khattab narrated to us that one day the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting when a man with extremely black hair and exceedingly white clothes came to him and placed his foot on the Prophet’s foot and said, ‘O Muhammad, what is Islam?’ He said, ‘To testify that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, to establish prayer, to give Zakah, to fast in Ramadan, and to perform Hajj if one is able.’ He said, ‘You have spoken the truth.’ We were amazed that he asked him and then confirmed the truth of his answers. He said, ‘Inform me about Iman.’ He said, ‘To believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Day of Resurrection, and in destiny, both its good and its evil.’ He said, ‘You have spoken the truth.’ We were amazed that he asked him and then confirmed the truth of his answers. He said, ‘Inform me about Ihsan.’ He said, ‘To worship Allah as if you see Him, for even though you do not see Him, He sees you.’ He said, ‘Inform me about the Hour.’ He said, ‘The one questioned about it knows no more than the questioner.’ He said, ‘Then tell me about its signs.’ He said, ‘The slave girl will give birth to her master, and you will see the barefooted, naked, destitute shepherds competing in constructing tall buildings.’ Then he went away. So I stayed there for a long time, and then he said, ‘O Umar, do you know who that questioner was?’ I said, ‘Allah and His Messenger know best.’ He said, ‘That was Jibril (Gabriel). He came to teach you your religion.’”

[Machine] I said, "O Abu Abdullah al-Rahman, referring to Ibn Umar, there are people who claim that there is no fate (predestination). He said: Do we have anyone among us like them? I said, No. He said: Then convey to them from me that when you meet them, indeed Ibn Umar disassociates himself from you and you disassociate yourselves from him." Umar ibn al-Khattab narrated to us that while we were sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , a man came who had no signs of travel nor was he from the people of the city. He came and sat in front of the Messenger of Allah. He said, "O Muhammad, what is Islam? He said, "Islam is that you bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and you establish prayer, give zakah, perform Hajj, perform Umrah, cleanse yourself from major impurity, complete ablution, and fast during Ramadan." He said, "If I do all of that, would I be a Muslim?" He said, "Yes." He said, "You have spoken the truth." He asked, "O Muhammad, what is faith (imaan)?" He said, "Faith is that you believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, and you believe in the Day of Judgment, and you believe in fate, its good and its evil." He said, "If I do all of that, would I be a believer (mu'min)?" He said, "Yes." He said, "You have spoken the truth." He asked, "O Muhammad, what is excellence (ihsan)?" He said, "Excellence is that you worship Allah as if you see Him, and even though you do not see Him, He sees you." He asked, "If I do that, would I be excellent (muhsin)?" He said, "Yes." He said, "You have spoken the truth." He asked, "O Muhammad, when is the Hour (Day of Judgment)?" He said, "Glory be to Allah, the one who is asked about it knows no more than the questioner, but if you wish, I will inform you about its signs." He said, "Yes." He said, "When you see barefoot, naked, destitute shepherds competing in constructing tall buildings and when you see women giving birth to their mistresses, that is among the signs of the Hour." He said, "You have spoken the truth." Then the man left, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "O Umar, do you know who this man was?" We said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "This was Gabriel who came to teach you your religion."
قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ يَعْنِي لِابْنِ عُمَرَ إِنَّ أَقْوَامًا يَزْعُمُونَ أَنْ لَيْسَ قَدَرٌ قَالَ هَلْ عِنْدَنَا مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ؟ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ فَأَبْلِغْهُمْ عَنِّي إِذَا لَقِيتَهُمْ إِنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ يَبْرَأُ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ بُرَآءُ مِنْهُ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ
قَالَ بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ جُلُوسٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي أُنَاسٍ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ سَحْنَاءُ سَفَرٍ وَلَيْسَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَلَدِ يَتَخَطَّى حَتَّى وَرَكَ فَجَلَسَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَا الْإِسْلَامُ؟ قَالَ «الْإِسْلَامُ أَنْ تَشْهَدَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَأَنْ تُقِيمَ الصَّلَاةَ وَتُؤْتِيَ الزَّكَاةَ وَتَحُجَّ وَتَعْتَمِرَ وَتَغْتَسِلَ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ وَأَنْ تُتِمَّ الْوُضُوءَ وَتَصُومَ رَمَضَانَ» قَالَ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَأَنَا مُسْلِمٌ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» قَالَ صَدَقْتَ
قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَا الْإِيمَانُ؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تُؤْمِنَ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ وَتُؤْمِنَ بِالْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ وَالْمِيزَانِ وَتُؤْمِنَ بِالْبَعْثِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَتُؤْمِنَ بِالْقَدَرِ خَيْرِهِ وَشَرِّهِ» قَالَ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَأَنَا مُؤْمِنٌ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» قَالَ صَدَقْتَ
قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَا الْإِحْسَانُ؟ قَالَ «الْإِحْسَانُ أَنْ تَعْمَلَ لِلَّهِ كَأَنَّكَ تَرَاهُ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ لَا تَرَاهُ فَإِنَّهُ يَرَاكَ» قَالَ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُ هَذَا فَأَنَا مُحْسِنٌ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» قَالَ صَدَقْتَ
قَالَ فَمَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ «سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ مَا الْمَسْؤُولُ عَنْهَا بِأَعْلَمَ مِنَ السَّائِلِ وَلَكِنْ إِنْ شِئْتَ نَبَّأْتُكَ عَنْ أَشْرَاطِهَا» قَالَ أَجَلْ قَالَ «إِذَا رَأَيْتَ الْعَالَةَ الْحُفَاةَ الْعُرَاةَ يَتَطَاوَلُونَ فِي الْبِنَاءِ وَكَانُوا مُلُوكًا» قَالَ مَا الْعَالَةُ الْحُفَاةُ الْعُرَاةُ؟ قَالَ «الْعُرَيْبُ» قَالَ «وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ الْأَمَةَ تَلِدُ رَبَّتَهَا فَذَلِكَ مِنْ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ» قَالَ صَدَقْتَ
ثُمَّ نَهَضَ فَوَلَّى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «عَلَيَّ بِالرَّجُلِ» فَطَلَبْنَاهُ كُلَّ مَطْلَبٍ فَلَمْ نَقْدِرْ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَنْ هَذَا؟ هَذَا جِبْرِيلُ أَتَاكُمْ لَيُعَلِّمَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ خُذُوا عَنْهُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا شُبِّهَ عَلَيَّ مُنْذُ أَتَانِي قَبْلَ مَرَّتِي هَذِهِ وَمَا عَرَفْتُهُ حَتَّى وَلَّى»
[Machine] The two sons of Mulaikah came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, our mother used to honor her husband, show kindness to her children, and entertain guests. However, she committed some actions during the pre-Islamic period." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Your mother is in Hell." At this, the two sons turned away, with their faces expressing sadness. The Prophet ﷺ called them back and they returned, with joy evident on their faces, hoping that something had happened. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "My mother and your mother are both in Hell." A hypocrite man said, "This does not benefit her mother and we are striving for her." A man from the Ansar said, "I have never seen someone ask the Prophet ﷺ as many questions as this man. O Messenger of Allah, has your Lord promised you something regarding her or regarding both of them?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Do you think it is a small thing in the eyes of Allah?" The Ansari man said, "I have never met anyone who asked more questions than him." The man asked, "What is that praiseworthy position?" The Prophet ﷺ answered, "It is the position when naked, barefooted people are brought to you, and Ibrahim ﷺ will be the first one clothed. He will say: 'Clothe my friends,' and two white silken garments will be brought to him, which he will wear. Then, he will sit facing the Throne. Then, I will be brought and I will wear my (silken) clothes, and I will stand on his right side, and I will not stand to his left side. Then, the people who will observe the Deen will arrive. I will be envied by my neighbors, whether from the previous generation or the latter." A hypocrite man said, "Not a single person will be placed except upon a position or a pride." He asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what are position and pride?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Fragrance and sweat." The hypocrite replied, "I have never seen water flowing except upon a position or pride, and it has vegetation." The Ansari man asked, "Does it have vegetation?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Yes, golden poles." The hypocrite said, "I have never seen a branch grow unless it leaves, and it bears fruit." The Ansari man asked, "Does it bear fruit?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, the colors of gemstones and its water is purer than milk and sweeter than honey. Whoever drinks from it will never feel thirsty again, and whoever is deprived of it will never be satisfied again." And the narration of this hadith was reported by As-Saikhu bin Hazzan from Ali bin Al-Hakam, while Sa`id bin Zaid differed from its chain.
جَاءَ ابْنَا مُلَيْكَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُمَّنَا كَانَتْ تُكْرِمُ الزَّوْجَ وَتَعْطِفُ عَلَى الْوَلَدِ وَذَكَرَ الضَّيْفَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ وَأَدَتْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَقَالَ «أُمُّكُمَا فِي النَّارِ» فَأَدْبَرَا وَالشَّرُّ يُرَى فِي وُجُوهِهِمَا فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا فَرُدَّا وَالْبِشْرُ يُرَى فِي وُجُوهِهِمَا رَجَاءَ أَنْ يَكُونَ حَدَثَ شَيْءٌ فَقَالَ «أُمِّي مَعَ أُمِّكُمَا» فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ مَا يُغْنِي هَذَا عَنْ أُمِّهِ وَنَحْنُ نَطَأُ عَقِبَهُ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَلَمْ أَرَ رَجُلًا قَطُّ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ سُؤَالًا مِنْهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَلْ وَعَدَ رَبُّكَ فِيهَا أَوْ فِيهِمَا؟ قَالَ «تَظُنُّ أَنَّهُ مِنْ شَيْءٍ» قَالَ «مَا سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي وَإِنِّي لَأَقُومُ الْمَقَامَ الْمَحْمُودَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ» قَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ وَمَا ذَاكَ الْمَقَامُ الْمَحْمُودُ؟ قَالَ ذَاكَ إِذَا جِيءَ بِكُمْ حُفَاةً عُرَاةً فَيَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يُكْسَى إِبْرَاهِيمُ ﷺ يَقُولُ اكْسُوا خَلِيلِي فَيُؤْتَى بِرِبْطَيْنِ بَيْضَاوَيْنِ فَيَلْبَسُهُمَا ثُمَّ يَقْعُدُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْعَرْشِ ثُمَّ أُوتَى بِكِسْوَتِي فَأَلْبَسُهَا فَأَقُومُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ مَقَامًا لَا يَقُومُهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي يَغْبِطُنِي بِهَا الْأَوَّلُونَ وَالْآخِرُونَ وَيُفْتَحُ نَهْرِي كَوْثَرٌ إِلَى الْحَوْضِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ فَإِنَّهُ مَا جَرَى سَاقِطٌ إِلَّا عَلَى حَالٍ أَوْ رَضْرَاضٍ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ حَالٍ وَرَضْرَاضٍ؟ قَالَ «حَالُهُ الْمِسْكُ وَرَضْرَاضُهُ التُّومُ» قَالَ الْمُنَافِقُ لَمْ أَسْمَعْ كَالْيَوْمِ قَطُّ مَاءً جَرَى عَلَى حَالٍ أَوْ رَضْرَاضٍ إِلَّا كَانَ لَهُ نَبَاتٌ قَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَلْ لَهُ نَبَاتٌ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ قُضْبَانُ الذَّهَبِ» قَالَ الْمُنَافِقُ لَمْ أَسْمَعْ كَالْيَوْمِ؛ فَإِنَّهُ مَا نَبَتَ قَضِيبٌ إِلَّا أَوْرَقَ وَكَانَ لَهُ ثَمَرٌ قَالَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ هَلْ لَهُ مِنْ ثَمَرٍ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ أَلْوَانُ الْجَوْهَرِ وَمَاؤُهُ أَشَدُّ بَيَاضًا مِنَ اللَّبَنِ وَأَحْلَى مِنَ الْعَسَلِ مَنْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ شَرْبَةً لَمْ يَظْمَأْ أَبَدًا وَمَنْ حُرِمَهُ لَمْ يُرْوَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ» وَرَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ الصَّعِقُ بْنُ حَزْنٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ فَخَالَفَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ فِي إِسْنَادِهِ
[Machine] Indeed, Amir al-Mu'minin entrusted me during his illness, saying, "If any of the people of Hijaz come to me, guide them to me." And indeed, I found someone from the people of Hijaz, so he said, "As Amir al-Mu'minin suspected, make a pact with me and gather the armies." He then sent them to attack the city three times, then called them to pledge loyalty to Yazid, despite them being worshippers of Qanoot in obedience to Allah and disobedience to Him. They agreed to this except for one man from Quraysh whose mother was 'Umm Walad. He said to him, "Pledge allegiance to Yazid, as you are a slave in obedience to Allah and disobedience to Him." He refused to accept this from him and killed him. His mother then swore that if Allah would enable her to get hold of a live or dead Muslim, she would burn him with fire. When Muslim bin 'Uqba left Medina, his illness intensified and he died. Umm al-Qurashi brought a flint to his grave and ordered that it be dug up from his head. When they reached the grave, they found a snake wrapped around his neck, holding onto his nose. They shouted for her to leave, saying, "Leave, O our lady, for Allah has sufficed you from his evil." They informed her of what had happened, but she said, "I will not fulfill what I promised to Allah." Then she took a stick and moved it around the snake's tail, and it moved away from the back of his head. She performed two rak'ahs, then said, "O Allah, if You know that my anger against Muslim bin 'Uqba today was for Your sake, then create a division between me and him." He said, "Then she took a stick and moved it around the snake's tail, and it moved away from the back of his head. She performed two rak'ahs, then said, 'O Allah, if You know that my anger against Muslim bin 'Uqba today was for Your sake, then create a division between me and him.'"

[Machine] A group of Jews came to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ one day and said, "O Abu Al-Qasim, tell us about some things that only a Prophet knows." He replied, "Ask me about whatever you want, but guarantee me the protection of Allah. And know that whatever Jacob took from his sons, if I tell you about it and you recognize it, you must follow me." They agreed, and asked him four questions: Which food did the Israelites forbid upon themselves before the Torah was revealed? How does the water of a woman differ from the water of a man? How can a child resemble their mother or father? How can this unlettered Prophet be among his people? And who is his guardian angel? The Prophet replied, "I have Allah's covenant with you. If I tell you, give me whatever guarantee and condition I wish." They agreed, and he said, "I swear by the one who revealed the Torah to Moses, do you know that Israel once fell seriously ill and his condition worsened? He made a vow that if Allah cured him of his illness, he would forever prohibit his most beloved drink and food. His most beloved food was the meat of camels and his most beloved drink was their milk." They said, "O Allah, yes." He said, "O Allah, bear witness." And he continued, "I swear by the one who revealed the Torah to Moses, do you know that the water of a man is thick and the water of a woman is thin and yellow? Whichever prevails determines the sex of the child, with the permission of Allah. If the water of a man prevails, the child will be male with the permission of Allah. And if the water of a woman prevails, the child will be female with the permission of Allah." They said, "O Allah, yes." He said, "O Allah, bear witness." And he said, "I swear by the one who revealed the Torah to Moses, do you know that this unlettered Prophet's eyes sleep while his heart does not?" They said, "O Allah, yes." He said, "O Allah, bear witness." Then they said, "Now tell us who is your guardian angel among the angels, for based on your answer, we will either follow you or abandon you." He replied, "My guardian angel is Gabriel, ﷺ . There has never been a Prophet sent by Allah without Gabriel as his guardian angel." They said, "If your guardian angel is someone other than Gabriel, we will abandon you and call you a liar." He said, "What prevents you from believing in him?" They said, "He is our enemy." At that moment, Allah revealed, "Whosoever is an enemy to Gabriel, then indeed he has brought it (this Quran) down upon your heart by Allah's permission, confirming what came before it as a guidance and glad tidings for the believers. Whoever is an enemy to Allah..." until "...they are blind." At that, they became filled with rage.

[Machine] I was informed by Waththab, who was one of those who witnessed Uthman's era of slavery. He used to stand in front of Uthman and say, "Uthman sent me to you." So, I invited the people for Uthman's proposal, and Ibn Awon said, "I think he said, 'They want something from me?'" He said, "What is it?" I said, "They want to either remove you from your position and say that it is their decision, so choose whoever you want for it, or they want you to cut ties with yourself, and if you refuse these two options, the people will fight against you." He said, "None of these options are necessary." I said, "What do you mean?" He said, "As for removing me from my position, I will not let go of my position, not even for the cost of a thobe. And as for you cutting ties with yourself, I swear by Allah, I would rather be killed than abandon a matter of the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ even if they fight each other after me." Ibn Awon said, "And this is closer to the words of Uthman." As for cutting from myself, I swear by Allah, I knew that my companions were being punished and I did not take revenge for myself. As for killing me, I swear by Allah, if you kill me, you will never be satisfied and you will never fight against an enemy after me." Waththab then stood up and left. We stayed and said, "Perhaps the people are afraid because a man has come who looks like a wolf." He looked out of a door and then came back. Then, Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr came with thirteen men until they reached Uthman. Uthman took hold of his beard and said things with it until I heard the sound of his teeth. He said, "Muawiyah is not enough for you, nor is Ibn Amir, nor are your books." Uthman said, "Send me my beard, O son of my brother, send me my beard, O son of my brother." He said, "And I saw him summon a man from the people and he approached him with a pair of scissors until he struck him in his head." I said, "Then what did he do?" He said, "Then they attacked him, by Allah, until they killed him."
أَخْبَرَنِي وَثَّابٌ وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ أَدْرَكَهُ عِتْقُ عُثْمَانَ ؓ فَكَانَ يَقُومُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ بَعَثَنِي عُثْمَانُ فَدَعَوْتُ لَهُ الْأَشْتَرَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ فَأَظُنُّهُ قَالَ فَطَرَحْتُ لِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وِسَادَةً وَلَهُ وِسَادَةٌ فَقَالَ «يَا أَشْتَرُ مَا يُرِيدُ النَّاسُ مِنِّي؟» قَالَ ثَلَاثًا مَا مِنْ إِحْدَاهُنِّ بُدٌّ قَالَ «مَا هُنَّ؟» قَالَ يُخَيِّرُونَكَ بَيْنَ أَنْ تَخْلَعَ لَهُمْ أَمْرَهُمْ فَتَقُولَ هَذَا أَمْرُكُمْ فَاخْتَارُوا لَهُ مَنْ شِئْتُمْ وَبَيْنَ أَنْ تَقُصَّ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ فَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ هَذَيْنِ فَإِنَّ الْقَوْمَ قَاتِلُوكَ قَالَ «مَا مِنْ إِحْدَاهُنَّ بُدٌّ؟» قَالَ مَا مِنْ إِحْدَاهُنَّ بُدٌّ قَالَ «أَمَّا أَنْ أَخْلَعَ لَهُمْ أَمْرَهُمْ فَمَا كُنْتُ لِأَخْلَعَ سِرْبَالًا سُرْبِلْتُهُ» قَالَ وَقَالَ الْحَسَنُ قَالَ وَاللهِ لَأَنْ أُقَدَّمَ فَيُضْرَبَ عُنُقِي أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَخْلَعَ أَمْرَ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ بَعْضُهَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ وَهَذَا أَشْبَهُ بِكَلَامِ عُثْمَانَ وَأَمَّا أَنْ أَقُصَّ مِنْ نَفْسِي فَوَاللهِ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ صَاحِبَيْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ كَانَا يُعَاقَبَانِ وَمَا يَقُومُ بَدَنِي للقِصَاصِ وَأَمَّا أَنْ تَقْتُلُونِي فَوَاللهِ لَئِنْ قَتَلْتُمُونِي لَا تُحَابُّونَ بَعْدِي أَبَدًا وَلَا تُقَاتِلُونَ بَعْدِي عَدُوًّا جَمِيعًا أَبَدًا فَقَامَ الْأَشْتَرُ فَانْطَلَقَ فَمَكَثْنَا فَقُلْنَا لَعَلَّ النَّاسَ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ كَأَنَّهُ ذِئْبٌ فَاطَّلَعَ مِنْ بَابٍ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فِي ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا حَتَّى انْتَهَوْا إِلَى عُثْمَانَ ؓ فَأَخَذَ بِلِحْيَتِهِ فَقَالَ بِهَا وَقَالَ بِهَا حَتَّى سَمِعْتُ وَقْعَ أَضْرَاسِهِ وَقَالَ مَا أَغْنَى عَنْكَ مُعَاوِيَةُ مَا أَغْنَى عَنْكَ ابْنُ عَامِرٍ مَا أَغْنَى عَنْكَ كُتُبُكَ قَالَ «أَرْسِلْ لِحْيَتِي يَا ابْنَ أَخِي أَرْسِلْ لِحْيَتِي يَا ابْنَ أَخِي» قَالَ فَأَنَا رَأَيْتُهُ اسْتَدْعَى رَجُلًا مِنَ الْقَوْمِ بِعَيْنِهِ فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ بِمِشْقَصٍ حَتَّى وَجَأَهُ بِهِ فِي رَأْسَهِ قُلْتُ ثُمَّ مَهْ قَالَ ثُمَّ تَعَانُوا عَلَيْهِ وَاللهِ حَتَّى قَتَلُوهُ
[Machine] I went to the Prophet ﷺ , and he presented Islam to me, so I embraced Islam. He also taught me a portion of the Quran. I then said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have performed certain deeds during the time of ignorance (before accepting Islam). Will I be rewarded for them?" He asked, "What did you do?" I replied, "I lost two she-camels and searched for them on a camel of mine. As a result, I found two houses and entered them, where I found an old man in one of them. I asked him if he had seen two she-camels. He replied that he had seen them and guided me towards them. Allah has blessed both of them, and they have been producing offspring. They belong to a family from your tribe, the tribe of Mudar. While he was speaking to me, a woman from another house called out that she had given birth. He asked her if it was a boy, saying that it would be considered a partner from our tribe, or if it was a girl, they would bury her. The woman replied that it was a girl. I asked him about the child that was just born, and he informed me that it was his daughter. I expressed my desire to purchase her from him. He exclaimed, 'O brother of Banu Tameem, are you suggesting that I sell my daughter to you?' I clarified that I do not want to purchase her as a slave, but I want to give her freedom, so that she may not be killed. He asked me what I would give in return, and I replied that I would give him my two lost she-camels and their offspring, as well as my camel (to carry them). He then asked if I would add my male camel to the deal. I agreed, on the condition that he send a messenger with me. Upon reaching my family, I would return his camel to him. He accepted the deal. However, during the night, I began to contemplate whether anybody had been bestowed with such an honorable transaction before me among the Arabs, now that Islam had emerged. I realized that I had just revived 366 households and wished to purchase each one of them with my two lost she-camels and one camel, in addition to the reward that I would receive from Allah. So, I asked the Prophet ﷺ if I would be rewarded for that, to which he replied, "You will be rewarded for it because Allah has favored you with Islam." Ubada and Misdaq narrated this, and Sa'sa'a added that Farazdaq also narrated it.
قَدِمْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَعَرَضَ عَلَيَّ الْإِسْلَامَ فَأَسْلَمْتُ وَعَلَّمَنِي آيًا مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي عَمِلْتُ أَعْمَالًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَهَلْ لِي فِيهَا أَجْرٌ؟ قَالَ «وَمَا عَمِلْتَ؟» فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي ضَلَّتْ نَاقَتَانِ لِي عَشْرَاوَانِ فَخَرَجْتُ أَبْتَغِيهَا عَلَى جَمَلٍ لِي فَرُفِعَ لِي بَيْتَانِ فِي فَضَاءٍ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ فَقَصَدْتُ قَصْدَهُمَا فَوَجَدْتُ فِي أَحَدِهِمَا شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا فَقُلْتُ هَلِ احْتَسَسْتُمْ نَاقَتَيْنِ عَشْرَاوَيْنِ؟ قَالَ مَا نَارَاهُمَا؟ قُلْتُ مِيسَمُ ابْنُ دَارِمٍ قَالَ قَدْ أَصَبْنَا نَاقَتَيْكَ وَنَتَجْنَاهُمَا وَطَارَنَاهُمَا وَقَدْ نَعَّشَ اللهُ بِهِمَا أَهْلَ بَيْتٍ مِنْ قَوْمِكَ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ مِنْ مُضَرَ فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يُخَاطِبُنِي إِذْ نَادَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ الْآخَرِ وَلَدَتْ مِمَّنْ وَلَدَتْ قَالَ قَالَ وَمَا وَلَدَتْ إِنْ كَانَ غُلَامًا فَقَدْ شَرَكَنَا فِي قَوْمِنَا وَإِنْ كَانَتْ جَارِيَةً فَأَدْفَنَّاهَا فَقَالَتْ جَارِيَةٌ فَقُلْتُ وَمَا هَذِهِ الْمَوْؤُدَةُ؟ قَالَ ابْنَةٌ لِي فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي أَشْتَرِيهَا مِنْكَ قَالَ يَا أَخَا بَنِي تَمِيمٍ أَتَقُولُ أَتَبِيعُ ابْنَتَكَ؟ وَقَدْ أَخْبَرْتُكَ أَنِّي رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ مِنْ مُضَرَ؟ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي لَا أَشْتَرِي مِنْكَ رَقَبَتَهَا إِنَّمَا أَشْتَرِي رُوحَهَا أَنْ لَا تَقْتُلَهَا قَالَ بِمَ تَشْتَرِيهَا؟ قُلْتُ نَاقَتِي هَاتَيْنِ وَوَلَدَيْهِمَا قَالَ وَتَزِيدُنِي بَعِيرَكَ هَذَا؟ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ عَلَى أَنْ تُرْسِلَ مَعِي رَسُولًا فَإِذَا بَلَغْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي رَدَدْتُ إِلَيْكَ الْبَعِيرَ فَفَعَلَ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَتُ أَهْلِي رَدَدْتُ إِلَيْهِ الْبَعِيرَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي بَعْضِ اللَّيْلِ فَكَّرْتُ فِي نَفْسِي إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَمَكْرُمَةٌ مَا سَبَقَنِي إِلَيْهَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ وَظَهَرَ الْإِسْلَامُ وَقَدْ أَحْيَيْتُ ثَلَاثَمِائَةٍ وَسِتِّينَ مِنَ الْمَوْؤُدَةِ أَشْتَرِي كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ بِنَاقَتَيْنِ عَشْرَاوَيْنِ وَجَمَلٍ فَهَلْ لِي فِي ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَجْرٍ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَكَ أَجْرُهُ إِذْ مَنَّ اللهُ عَلَيْكَ بِالْإِسْلَامِ» قَالَ عُبَادَةُ وَمِصْدَاقُ قَوْلِ صَعْصَعَةَ قَوْلُ الْفَرَزْدَقِ
[Machine] I went with a man until we entered upon Fatimah bint Qays, the sister of Dihyah bin Qays. We said, "O Fatimah, tell us a narration that you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." She said, "Yes." So she gave us dates and water to drink. She said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out one day and sat on the pulpit. The people surrounded him and took refuge with him. He said, 'O people, I have been made to sit here due to a piece of news.' She said, 'And it was not on the hour that he used to sit in. Tameem Ad-Dari entered upon me today during the migration or around Dhuhr time. He informed me that his cousins were thrown into a ship in the sea on an island that they do not know. So they went into it, walking, and they came across something that they did not recognize if it was a man or a woman, from what it was clothed with hair. So they said, 'Who are you?' It said, 'I am the Jassasah!' They said, 'Inform us.' It said, 'I do not inform you, nor do I ask you anything. But if you want the news, go to this monastery,' pointing to a monastery on the island, not far away. So we went on walking until we entered it and found a man who was bound with iron, large and heavy. His back was leaning against the side of a mountain. He said, 'Who are you?' We said, 'People from the Arabs.' He said, 'What did the unlettered Prophet ﷺ do?' We said, 'He has left.' He said, 'What did the date-palms of Bani Uman and Baysan do?' We said, 'They bear fruits and produce.' He said, 'What did the spring of Zughar do?' We said, 'It remains the same.' He said, 'What did the lake of Tabariyyah do?' We said, 'It is full.' He struck his hand upon his thigh and said, 'I have lost everything of the land except Makkah and Madinah.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Madinah will be shaken one, twice. No dajjal shall enter it. There is no spot in it that is not guarded by angels, except that they shall stand upon a rock, raising the sword.' And he pointed with his hand, 'And from the direction of Yemen is what?' We said, 'Whatever Allah wills.' Then he said, while pointing with his hand, 'And his shirt is close to thirty times the size from the direction of Iraq and it is not less than thirty times.'

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called for a congregational prayer at a time when he had never done so before. People went to the mosque and the Prophet ﷺ came and ascended the pulpit. Then he said, "I warn you against the Dajjal (Antichrist) three times. He was not mentioned before, but he will soon appear among you, O nation. Tamim Ad-Dari informed me that he embarked on a sea voyage with a group of people, including Lakhm and Judham. Strong winds blew them to an island from the islands of the Sham (Greater Syria). They landed on its coast, where they found a chained woman. They asked her, 'Who are you?' She said, 'I am the Jassasah.' They asked her, 'What is the Jassasah?' She said, 'Inform me about yourselves first.' She said, 'What brought you here?' They said, 'We are Arabs, sailing on this sea, and then the wind blew us to your island. Who are you?' She said, 'I do not want to inform you.' They said, 'Inform us.' She said, 'Do you have a prophet amongst you?' They said, 'Yes.' She said, 'What has been done by the people?' They said, 'Some followed him and some abandoned him.' She said, 'I ask you whether people follow him when he enforces his commands.' They said, 'Yes.' She said, 'I believe that he is the Prophet who will come; he is the one whose description matches the person I met. If I were to go to him, I would follow him.' Then she asked them about the date-palm trees of Baysan. They replied, 'Big and good.' She asked about the spring of Zughar. They replied, 'Abundant and flowing; it quenches the thirst of the one who reaches it.' She asked, 'Is there a narrow mountain pass near it?' They replied, 'Yes.' She said, 'By Allah, this is how the mountain pass will be when he enters it, because he will be unable to pass through it.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'This is Makkah and this is Al-Madinah.' Allah has made them sacred, as Abraham made Makkah sacred. There is no passage through them without an angel stationed, holding a sword, barring the way before the Dajjal until the Day of Judgment."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَادَى «الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةً» فِي سَاعَةٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُنَادِي فِيهَا فَخَرَجَ النَّاسُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أُنْذِرُكُمُ الدَّجَّالَ ثَلَاثًا إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيمَا مَضَى وَإِنَّهُ كَائِنٌ فِيكُمْ أَيَّتُهَا الْأُمَّةُ وَإِنَّ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّهُ رَكِبَ بَحْرَ الشَّامِ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ لَخْمٍ وَجُذَامٍ فَأَلْقَتْهُمُ الرِّيحَ إِلَى جَزِيرَةٍ مِنْ جَزَائِرِهِ فَإِذَا هُمْ بِالدَّهْمَاءِ تَجُرُّ شَعْرَهَا فَقَالُوا مَا أَنْتِ؟ قَالَتْ أَنَا الْجَسَّاسَةُ قَالُوا أَخْبِرِينَا قَالَتْ مَا أَنَا بِمُخْبِرِكُمْ وَلَا اسْتَخْبَرْتُكُمْ وَلَكِنِ ائْتُوا رَجُلًا فِي هَذَا الدَّيْرِ فَإِنَّهُ إِلَى خَبَرِكُمْ بِالْأَشْوَاقِ فَأَتَوْهُ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مَمْسُوحُ الْعَيْنِ مَوْثُوقٌ إِلَى سَارِيَةٍ فِي الْحَدِيدِ فَقَالَ مَا أَنْتُمْ؟ قَالُوا نَحْنُ الْعَرَبُ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتِ الْعَرَبُ؟ قُلْنَا بُعِثَ إِلَيْهِمْ نَبِيٌّ أُمِّيٌّ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى اللهِ قَالَ فَمَا فَعَلَ النَّاسُ؟ قَالُوا اتَّبَعَهُ قَوْمٌ وَتَرَكَهُ قَوْمٌ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُمْ إِنْ يَتَّبِعُونَهُ وَيُصَدِّقُونَهُ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتِ الْعَرَبُ؟ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ لِباسُهُمْ؟ قُلْنَا صُوفٌ وَقُطْنٌ تَغْزِلُهُ نِسَاؤُهُمْ فَضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَيْهَاتَ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ نَخْلُ بَيْسَانَ؟ قُلْنَا قَوِيَ ونَجِدُها فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ فَضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَيْهَاتَ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ عَيْنُ زُغَرٍ؟ قُلْنَا كَثِيرٌ مَاؤُهَا يَتَدَفَّقُ يَرْوِي مَنْ أَتَاهَا فَضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَيْهَاتَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَوْ قَدْ أَطْلَقَنِي اللهُ مِنْ وَثَاقِي لَمْ يَبْقَ مَنْهَلٌ إِلَّا دَخَلْتُهُ إِلَّا مَكَّةَ وَطَيْبَةَ فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِي دُخُولُهُما قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «تِلْكَ مَكَّةُ وَهَذِهِ طَيْبَةُ حَرَّمَهَا اللهُ كَمَا حَرَّمَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَكَّةَ أَمَا أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ نَقْبٌ وَلَا سِكَّةٌ إِلَّا وَعَلَيْهَا مَلَكٌ شَاهِرٌ للسَّيْفِ يَمْنَعُهَا مِنَ الدَّجَّالِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ»
[Machine] While the people in the city had no fear, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out and performed the noon prayer. Then, he walked until he climbed the pulpit, which startled the people. When he saw their faces, he said, "O people, I did not come out to cause you alarm, but rather a matter came to me that brought me joy, so I wanted to inform you of the joy of your Prophet. Tamim Al-Dari informed me that his cousins, the people of Banu Amm, embarked on the sea until their ship reached an unknown island. They began to walk, and suddenly they found a man whom they did not know if it was a male or female, due to the abundance of hair on their body. They asked, 'Who are you?' The person replied, 'I am Al-Jassasah.' They demanded to be taken to the monastery, where they found a man tied up, who was extremely distressed. They asked, 'Who are you?' The man replied, 'I am from the people of Palestine, from the Arabian Peninsula.' They asked, 'Has your Prophet appeared?' He answered, 'Yes.' They asked, 'What did he do?' The man said, 'Some people pledged allegiance to him, while others opposed and fought him. I fought those who opposed him until the people of Al-Hijr and Al-Madhar gave him allegiance.' They asked, 'What happened to the lake of Tabariyah?' He replied, 'It is full and overflowing.' They asked, 'What happened to the Zughar spring?' He replied, 'Its water is also overflowing.' They asked, 'What about the date palms between 'Uman and Baysan?' He replied, 'They are abundant in fruit.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'If I were not restrained by my oath, I would have walked on the Earth except into Al-Tayyibah.' 'Amr said, 'I met Muḥarrar bin Abi Hurayrah and narrated the story to him. He asked, 'Did it contain anything else?' I replied, 'No.' He said, 'You speak the truth, I bear witness on behalf of Abu Hurayrah that he narrated this to me and added more to it.' Then he said, 'What is the Mediterranean Sea?' 'What is the Euphrates River?' He pointed twenty times with his hand towards the east. I met 'Abdullah bin Abu Bakr and narrated the story to him. He asked, 'Did it contain anything else?' I replied, 'No.' He said, 'You speak the truth, I bear witness on behalf of 'Aisha that she narrated this to me, but she said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "And there is nothing but good in Al-Madina".'"

[Machine] Amr Al-Shabi narrated to me, Fatimah bint Qais said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out one day and prayed the prayer of migration, then he sat down and the people were startled. He said, "O people, I did not leave my place out of fear, but Tamim Al-Dari came to me and told me news that prevented me from taking a nap with joy and ease. So I wanted to give you the good news of your Prophet. He informed me that a group of his relatives from the Banu 'Amir rode the sea and a storm struck them, so they took refuge on an island. They sat near a ship until they boarded the island, and suddenly they saw a creature with a lot of hair, they did not know whether it was a man or a woman. They greeted him and he responded. They said, 'Will you not tell us who you are?' He replied, 'I am not informing you nor am I interrogating you, but there is someone in this monastery who is eager to inform you and to interrogate you.' They asked, 'And who are you?' He said, 'I am the spy.' So they set out until they reached the monastery, and they found a man who was tightly bound in iron chains, looking very sad and complaining a lot. They greeted him and he responded. They asked, 'Who are you?' He said, 'I am from the Arabs.' They asked, 'What did the Arabs do to their Prophet after he was expelled?' They said, 'They believed in him, followed him, and confirmed him.' He said, 'That is good for them.' They asked, 'Did he have any enemies?' He said, 'Yes, and Allah supported him over them.' They asked, 'Do the Arabs have one God?' He said, 'Yes.' They asked, 'Do they have one word?' He said, 'Yes.' They asked, 'Do they have one religion?' He said, 'Yes.' They asked, 'What did 'Uyaynah bin Hisn do?' They said, 'He distributed the water of the wells to his people, and they watered their crops with it.' They asked, 'What did the palm tree between 'Umman and Bayssan do?' They said, 'It provides shade for its branches every year.' They asked, 'What did Lake Tabariyyah do?' They said, 'It is full.' He exclaimed, 'Then he sighed twice and said, 'By Allah, if I were to go out of my place here, I would not leave any land of Allah's except that I would tread it, except for Taibah, for it is not mine to tread on. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Indeed, this is one of the things that make me happy.' He said that three times. Indeed, Taibah is Al-Madinah. Then Allah has made it forbidden for the Dajjal. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ swore, 'By Allah, who there is no god but He, there is no narrow path or wide valley for it, nor any mountain, except that it has an angel standing with a drawn sword until the Day of Resurrection. The Dajjal cannot enter it with its people.' Al-Shabi said, 'So I met Al-Muharrar ibn Abi Hurairah and I narrated to him the Hadith of Fatimah, and he said, 'I bear witness that my father narrated to me as Fatimah narrated to you, except that he said, 'It is in the east.' Then I met Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad and he said, 'I bear witness that 'A'ishah narrated to me as Fatimah narrated to you, except that she said, 'The two sanctuaries are Haram for it: Makkah and Al-Madinah.' And the wording of the Hadith is according to the Hadith of Yahya bin Sa'id and the others similar to it.

[Machine] Abu 'Umar ad-Darir and Abu 'Umar al-Hawdi said: Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, I am Dawud ibn Abi Hind, from 'Amir ash-Sha'bi, from Fatimah bint Qays al-Fihriyah, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came one day hastening until he ascended the pulpit and the call to prayer was made for the people to pray in congregation. So he delivered a sermon and said: "I did not call you out of desire or fear, but Tamim ad-Dari informed me that a group from the people of Palestine embarked on a sea voyage, and the wind cast them onto an island from among the islands of the sea. There, they found a creature with long hair, the likes of which they had never seen before. They asked, 'Who are you?' It said, 'I am the Spy.' They asked, 'Inform us about ourselves.' It said, 'I am not the one who informs you or who can be informed by you. But in this monastery, there is a man who can inform you and you can ask him out of longing.' So they entered the monastery and found a man shackled with iron. They asked, 'Who are you?' He said, 'Who are you?' They said, 'We are Arabs.' He asked, 'Has the Prophet appeared among you?' They said, 'Yes.' He asked, 'Have the Arabs followed him?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Is it better for them that they have done so?' They said, 'Yes.' He asked, 'Has it appeared in Persia?' They said, 'No.' He said, 'Indeed, it will appear among them.' Then he asked, 'What did the one-eyed do?' They said, 'He caused much harm.' He asked, 'What happened to the Lake of Tabariyah?' They said, 'It dried up, leaving behind a meadow.' He asked, 'What happened to the date palm of Bayhan?' They said, 'It has fed its early fruits and leapt as though it would escape from its restraints.' Then he said to them, 'I am the Dajjal. I am going to emerge and will not leave any land except Makkah and Madinah.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Give glad tidings, for the Muslims have been given good news. This is the land of Taibah (Madinah), it will not be entered by the Dajjal.'"
ثنا أَبُو عُمَرَ الضَّرِيرُ وَأَبُو عُمَرَ الْحَوْضِيُّ قَالُوا ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ أَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنْ عَامِرٍ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ الْفِهْرِيَّةِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ مُسْرِعًا حَتَّى صَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ وَنُودِيَ فِي النَّاسِ الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةً فَخَطَبَهُمْ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أَدْعُكُمْ لِرَغْبَةٍ وَلَا لِرَهْبَةٍ نَزَلَتْ وَلَكِنَّ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ قَوْمًا مِنْ أَهْلِ فِلَسْطِينَ رَكِبُوا الْبَحْرَ فَأَلْقَتْهُمُ الرِّيحُ إِلَى جَزِيرَةٍ مِنْ جَزَائِرِ الْبَحْرِ فَإِذَا هُمْ بِدَابَّةٍ أَشْعُرُ لَا نَدْرِي أَذَكَرٌ هُوَ أَمْ أُنْثَى لِكَثْرَةِ شَعْرِهَا فَقَالُوا مَا أَنْتِ؟ قَالَتْ أَنَا الْجَسَّاسَةُ قَالُوا فَأَخْبِرِينَا قَالَتْ مَا أَنَا بِمُخْبِرَتِكُمْ وَلَا مُسْتَخْبِرَتِكُمْ وَلَكِنْ فِي هَذَا الدَّيْرِ رَجُلٌ هُوَ إِلَى أَنْ يُخْبِرَكُمْ وتَسْتَخْبِرُونَهُ بِالْأَشْوَاقِ فَدَخَلُوا الدَّيْرَ فَإِذَا هُمْ بِالرَّجُلِ مُصَفَّدٌ بِالْحَدِيدِ فَقَالُوا مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ مَنْ أَنْتُمْ؟ قَالُوا نَحْنُ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ قَالَ ظَهَرَ مِنْكُمُ النَّبِيُّ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاتَّبَعَتْهُ الْعَرَبُ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ أَمَا أَنَّ ذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ قَالَ هَلْ ظَهَرَ عَلَى فَارِسَ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ سَيَظْهَرُ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ عَيْنُ زُغَرٍ؟ قَالُوا هِيَ تَتَدَفَّقُ مَلْأَى قَالَ فَمَا فَعَلَتْ بُحَيْرَةُ الطَّبَرِيَّةِ؟ قَالُوا هِيَ تَتَدَفَّقُ مَلْأَى قَالَ فَمَا فَعَلَ نَخْلُ بَيْسَانَ؟ قَالُوا قَدْ أَطْعَمَ أَوَائِلَهُ فَوَثَبَ حَتَّى ظَنُّوا أَنَّهُ سَيُفْلِتُ مِنْ قُيُودِهِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ أَنَا الدَّجَّالُ أَمَا أَنِّي سَأَطَأُ الْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا إِلَّا مَكَّةَ وَطَيْبَةَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَبْشِرُوا فَبَشَّرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ هَذِهِ طَيْبَةُ لَا يَدْخُلُهَا»
[Machine] We were called to pray during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, so we came out and sat behind the men's rows. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ascended the pulpit and praised Allah and extolled Him. Then he said, "Indeed, your brother Tamim Ad-Dari narrated to me about his paternal cousins, who sailed on the sea and the wind blew them until they arrived at an island among the islands of the sea. They came out asking about the path, and they met a creature from the creatures of Allah that they had never seen before. It was greater than anything woven by the Children of Adam, and it was covered in hair. They asked it about the path, and it said, 'If you want to ask about the path, then ask the one who can give you knowledge and desires your speech.' So they asked it, 'Inform us about yourself.' It said, 'I am the Dassasah.' So we knew that it was a woman. We went to the monastery and entered it, where we saw a creature that we had never seen anything greater than before. It was filled from between the edges to the ankles with iron, wiped with dust from the eye. We asked it about the path, and it said, 'I will not inform you until you inform me about what I ask you about.' We said, 'Ask about what you see.' It said, 'Inform me about the Prophet of the Arabs. Has he appeared?' We said, 'Yes.' It asked, 'Who does he invoke?' So we informed it. It asked, 'How quickly do people respond to what he calls them to?' We said, 'Swiftly.' It said, 'That is better for them.' It asked, 'Inform me about the Tabariyyah Lake. What has it done?' We said, 'It overflows.' It asked, 'Inform me about the 'Ayn Zughar.' We said, 'It overflows.' It said, 'Ask about what you see.' We said, 'What are you?' It said, 'I am the Dajjal. By Allah, I will trample every inch of Allah's land except for Madinah.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'This is Taibah,' meaning, Madinah."
نُودِيَ فِي زَمَانِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةً فَخَرَجْنَا فَجَلَسْنَا خَلْفَ أَكْتَافِ الرِّجَالِ قَالَتْ فَصَعِدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمِنْبَرَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَلَا إِنَّ أَخَاكُمْ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ بَنِي عَمٍّ لَهُ رَكِبُوا الْبَحْرَ فَذَهَبَتْ بِهِمُ الرِّيحَ حَتَّى أَلْجَأَتْهُمْ إِلَى جَزِيرَةٍ مِنْ جَزَائِرِ الْبَحْرِ فَخَرَجُوا يَسْأَلُونَ عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ فَلَقُوا خَلْقًا مِنْ خَلْقِ اللهِ لَمْ يَرَوْا قَبْلَهُ شَيْئًا أَعْظَمَ مِنْهُ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ مِمَّا نَسْجَ بَنُو آدَمَ وَقَدْ كَسَاهُ الشَّعْرُ قَالَ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ فَقَالَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَسْأَلُوا عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ مَنْ يُخْبِرُكُمْ ويَشْتَهِي حَدِيثَكُمْ فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِهَذَا الدَّيْرِ فَقُلْنَا أَخْبِرِينَا مَا أَنْتِ؟ قَالَتْ أَنَا الدَّسَّاسَةُ فَعَرَفْنَا أَنَّهَا امْرَأَةٌ فَمَضَيْنَا إِلَى الدَّيْرِ فَدَخَلْناهُ فَإِذَا خَلَقٌ لَمْ نَرَ قَطُّ أَعْظَمَ مِنْهُ مَمْلُوءًا مَا بَيْنَ تَرَاقِيهِ إِلَى كَعْبَيْهِ حَدِيدًا مَمْسُوحَ الْعَيْنِ فَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا مُحَدِّثُكُمْ حَتَّى تُحَدِّثُونِي عَمَّا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَنْهُ قُلْنَا سَلْ عَمَّا بَدَا لَكَ قَالَ أَخْبِرُونِي عَنْ نَبِيِّ الْعَرَبِ هَلْ خَرَجَ بَعْدُ؟ فَقُلْنَا نَعَمْ قَالَ إِلَى مَ يَدْعُو؟ فَأَخْبَرْنَاهُ قَالَ كَيْفَ سُرْعَةُ النَّاسِ إِلَى مَا دَعَاهُمْ إِلَيْهِ؟ قُلْنَا سِرَاعٌ قَالَ ذَاكَ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ قَالَ أَخْبِرُونِي عَنْ بُحَيْرَةِ الطَّبَرِيَّةِ مَا فَعَلَتْ؟ قُلْنَا تَطْفَحُ قَالَ أَخْبِرُونِي عَنْ عَيْنِ زُغَرٍ؟ قُلْنَا تَطْفَحُ قَالَ سَلُوا عَمَّا بَدَا لَكُمْ قَالَ قُلْنَا لَهُ مَا أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ أَنَا الدَّجَّالُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا تَبْقَى أَرْضٌ مِنْ أَرْضِ اللهِ إِلَّا وَطَأْتُها بِقَدَمَيَّ هَاتَيْنِ إِلَّا طَيْبَةُ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «هَذِهِ طَيْبَةُ» يَعْنِي الْمَدِينَةَ
[Machine] I entered the city and sat by the pulpit. A man approached and sat next to me. He asked if I could direct him to someone who could tell him about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So, he accompanied me to Fatimah bint Qays, who said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood on the pulpit and the people heard about it. The people gathered and became excited. I was among those who went to him and I heard him say, "Tameem ad-Dari informed me that his cousins boarded a ship in the sea to do trade. The wind blew them to an island. As they landed or whoever from among them went out, they found a man covered in hair who could not be identified as male or female. They asked him about news, and he said the news is with the owner of this monastery, and I am the messenger. So, they went to the monastery, and there they found a man chained with iron and asked him who he was. He told them, 'What did the Prophet of the Arabs do after he left?' They replied, 'Yes, he did.' He asked them who followed him, the common people or the elite. They replied, 'The common people.' He asked if their number increased or decreased. They replied, 'It increased.' He asked if anyone went back from among those who followed him. They replied, 'No.' He said, 'This is good for them. How is the lake of Tabariyyah?' They replied, 'It has water.' He asked, 'How about the date-palm trees of Baysan?' They replied, 'They are carrying fruit.' He asked, 'How about the spring of Zughar?' They replied, 'It has water.' He said, 'If he invited me, I would have trodden with my foot on all this land, except Taiba.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'This is Taiba, on every side of which is an angel with a drawn sword, its sword aimed at the enemy.'"
دَخَلْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَجَلَسْتُ عِنْدَ الْمِنْبَرِ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَجَلَسَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَدُلُّنِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ يُحَدِّثُنِي عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَانْطَلَقَ بِي إِلَى فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ فَقَالَتْ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَسَمِعَ النَّاسُ أَنَّهُ قَامَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَأَقْبَلَ النَّاسُ يَشْتَدُّونَ وَكُنْتُ مِمَّنْ أَتَاهُ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنِي تَمِيمٌ الدَّارِيُّ أَنَّ بَنِي عَمٍّ لَهُ رَكِبُوا فِي سَفِينَةٍ لَهُمْ فِي الْبَحْرِ تُجَّارًا فَضَرَبَتْ بِهِمُ الرِّيحُ إِلَى جَزِيرَةٍ فَخَرَجُوا أَوْ مَنْ خَرَجَ مِنْهُمْ هَلْ يَرَوْنَ أَحَدًا؟ حَتَّى لَقِيَهُمْ مَنْ غَطَّاهُ الشَّعْرُ مَا يَسْتَبِينُ مِنْهُ ذَاكَ أَذَكَرٌ أَمْ أُنْثَى قَالُوا الْخَبَرُ قَالَ الْخَبَرُ عِنْدَ صَاحِبِ هَذَا الدَّيْرِ فَأَنَا الْجَسَّاسُ فَأَتَوُا الدَّيْرَ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مُوقَرٌ بِالْحَدِيدِ فَسَأَلَهُمْ مِمَّنْ هُمْ؟ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ فَقَالَ مَا فَعَلَ نَبِيُّ الْعَرَبِ أَخْرَجَ بَعْدُ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ مَنْ يَتْبَعُهُ السَّفَلَةُ أَمْ أَشْرَافُ النَّاسِ قَالُوا يَتْبَعُهُ السُّفَهَاءُ قَالَ يَكْثُرُونَ أَمْ يَقِلُّونَ؟ قَالُوا يَكْثُرُونَ قَالَ يَرْجِعُ أَحَدٌ مِمَّنْ أَتَاهُ؟ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ ذَلِكَ خَيْرٌ لَهُمْ مَا فَعَلَتْ بُحَيْرَةُ الطَّبَرِيَّةِ هَلْ فِيهَا مَاءٌ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَ نَخْلُ بَيْسَانَ هَلْ تَحْمِلُ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَتْ عَيْنُ زُغَرٍ هَلْ فِيهَا مَاءٌ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ أَمَا أَنَّهُ لَوْ قَدْ آذَنَ لِي لَقَدْ وَطَأْتُ بِرِجْلِي هَذِهِ الْأَرْضَ كُلَّهَا غَيْرَ طَيْبَةَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَهَذِهِ طَيْبَةُ عَلَى كُلِّ نَقْبٍ مِنْهَا مَلَكٌ شَاهِرٌ سَيْفَهُ نَحْوَ الْعِرَاقِ مَا هُوَ نَحْوَ الْعِرَاقِ مَا هُوَ»
[Machine] I was in the market of Al-Majaz when a young man passed by wearing a red cloak. He was saying, "O people, say there is no god but Allah, and you will be successful." A man behind him threw stones at him, causing his face and legs to bleed, saying, "O people, he is a liar, so do not obey him." So I asked, "Who is this?" They said, "This is the son of Hashim's slave girl, who claims to be the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and this is his uncle 'Abdul-'Uzza." When Muhammad ﷺ migrated to Medina and the people embraced Islam, we also left our tribe with our property. When we arrived at Medina and were near its walls, we changed our clothes to different ones. Then, a man on the road asked, "From where have the people come?" We said, "We are from the tribe of Na'mir and we have a red camel standing with a slit ear." He asked, "Are you selling your camel?" We said, "Yes." He asked, "For how much?" We replied, "For such and such a measure of dates." He did not reduce anything from our words and hit his hand. He then took the reins of our camel and turned away with it. When he disappeared from our sight behind the walls, we said, "By Allah, we have not done anything wrong and we have given our pledge to a person we do not know." Then a woman sitting there said, "I have seen a man whose face resembles a full moon. By Allah, he will neither oppress you nor disappoint you. I guarantee your camel." Then, a man came and said, "I am the Messenger, the Messenger of Allah, to you. This is your camel's provision, so eat, be satisfied, and store some." So we ate, were satisfied, stored some, and entered the mosque. We found him delivering a sermon from the pulpit. We heard him saying, "Give charity, as charity is beneficial for you. The upper hand is better than the lower hand. Begin by giving to those you have obligations towards, such as your father, mother, sister, brother, and the closest relatives." So a man from the Ansar stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, these are the sons of Yarbu' who killed one of us during the pre-Islamic period. Should we still fulfill our obligations towards them?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said three times, "Indeed, a father does not inherit from his child."

[Machine] I was sitting with Ali when a man wearing traveling clothes entered. Ali was speaking to the people and they were speaking to him. The man asked Ali, "May I speak?" But Ali did not turn to him and he was preoccupied with something. So, I sat next to the man and asked him, "What's your news?" He replied, "I was performing Umrah and I met Aisha who said to me, 'These people who have left your land are called Haruriyyah.' I said, 'They left from a place called Harurā', so they are called that.' She said, 'Blessed is the one who witnessed their destruction. If the son of Abu Talib wanted, he could inform you about them.' So, I came to ask him about their news. When Ali finished, he said, 'Where is the one who sought permission?' So, the man narrated the story to him as he had narrated it to us. He said, 'I entered upon the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and there was no one with him except Aisha, the Mother of the Believers.' So, he said to me, 'O Ali, how are you and your people?' I replied, 'Allah and His Messenger know best.' Then he pointed with his hand and said, 'There are people who come out from the east reciting the Quran, but their understanding does not go beyond their throats. They pass through the religion just as an arrow passes through its target. Among them is a man whose appearance is deceiving, as if his hand is in the breast. Shall I inform you about them?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'I solemnly swear by Allah, have I informed you about them?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'So you come to me and inform me that he is not among them, and then I swear by Allah that he is among them? Then you come to me and drag him as you were named?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Allah and His Messenger have spoken the truth.'"
كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عَلِيٍّ جَالِسًا إِذْ دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَيْهِ ثِيَابُ السَّفَرِ قَالَ وَعَلِيٌّ يُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ وَيُكَلِّمُونَهُ فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ «أَتَأْذَنُ أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمُ؟ فَلَمْ يَلْتَفِتْ إِلَيْهِ وَشَغَلَهُ مَا هُوَ فِيهِ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى الرَّجُلِ فَسَأَلْتُهُ مَا خَبَرُكَ؟» قَالَ كُنْتُ مُعْتَمِرًا فَلَقِيتُ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ لِي «هَؤُلَاءِ الْقَوْمُ الَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا فِي أَرْضِكُمْ يُسَمُّونَ حَرُورِيَّةً» قُلْتُ خَرَجُوا فِي مَوْضِعٍ يُسَمَّى حَرُورَاءَ فَسُمُّوا بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ «طُوبَى لِمَنْ شَهِدَ هَلَكَتَهُمْ لَوْ شَاءَ ابْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ لَأَخَبَرَكُمْ خَبَرَهُمْ» فَجِئْتُ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ خَبَرِهِمْ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ عَلِيٌّ قَالَ «أَيْنَ الْمُسْتَأْذِنُ؟ فَقَصَّ عَلَيْهِ كَمَا قَصَّ عَلَيْنَا» قَالَ «إِنِّي دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ» فَقَالَ لِي «كَيْفَ أَنْتَ يَا عَلِيُّ وَقَوْمُ كَذَا وَكَذَا؟» قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ وَقَالَ ثُمَّ أَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ فَقَالَ «قَوْمٌ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ فِيهِمْ رَجُلٌ مُخْدَجٌ كَأَنَّ يَدَهُ ثَدْيٌ أَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللهِ أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِهِمْ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «أُنَاشِدُكُمْ بِاللهِ أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ أَنَّهُ فِيهِمْ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَأَتَيْتُمُونِي فَأَخْبَرْتُمُونِي أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِيهِمْ فَحَلَفْتُ لَكُمْ بِاللهِ أَنَّهُ فِيهِمْ فَأَتَيْتُمُونِي بِهِ تَسْحَبُونَهُ كَمَا نُعِتَ لَكُمْ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «صَدَقَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ»
[Machine] Certainly! Here is the passage translated into English:
"I was sitting with Ibn Abbas when nine men came to him and said, 'Either you come with us, or leave us alone, O you.' At that time, he was well and had not yet gone blind. He said, 'I will go with you.' They spoke, but I do not know what they said. He returned while shaking his garment and said, 'Uff and Tuff, they attack a man with ten virtues. They have attacked a man.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I will send a man who loves Allah and His Messenger, whom Allah will never disgrace.' Everyone looked around, and the Messenger said, 'Where is Ali?' He was at the mill grinding, and none of you were grinding for him. So he was summoned, even though he was suffering from sore eyes and could barely see. The Prophet ﷺ spat in his eyes, shook the flag thrice, and then handed it to him. He returned with Safiyyah bint Huyayy. The Prophet ﷺ sent Abu Bakr with Surah Al-Tawbah and then sent Ali after him to take it from him, saying, 'No one will take it but a man who is from me and I am from him.' The Prophet ﷺ gathered Hasan, Husayn, Ali, and Fatimah, covered them with a cloth, and said, 'These are my household and my close kin, so remove impurity from them and purify them thoroughly.' Ali was the first to accept Islam after Khadijah. He wore the garment of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and slept as the polytheists pelted him, thinking he was the Prophet ﷺ . Abu Bakr came and said, 'O Prophet of Allah,' and Ali replied, 'The Prophet of Allah ﷺ has gone towards the well of Maymun.' He followed him and entered the cave with him. Meanwhile, the polytheists continued pelting Ali until morning. During the Battle of Tabuk, Ali asked to join, but the Prophet ﷺ said, 'No.' Ali cried, so the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Are you not pleased to be to me like Aaron was to Moses, except there is no prophet after me?' and said, 'You are my successor among every believer after me.' He blocked all the mosque's doors except Ali's, allowing him to enter while in a state of impurity (junub), for he had no other path. The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Whoever I am his protector (wali), then Ali is his protector.' Ibn Abbas said, 'Allah informed us in the Quran that He is pleased with the people of the tree; did He inform us afterward that He was ever displeased with them?' The Prophet ﷺ told Umar when he said, 'Grant me permission to strike his neck, meaning Hatib,' he said, 'How do you know? Perhaps Allah has looked at the people of Badr and said, 'Do as you wish, for I have forgiven you.''"

[Machine] I was sent by Ibn Ayyash bin Abi Rabia to Umar bin Abdul Aziz for his needs. I entered upon him and there was a scribe with him who was writing. I greeted him and he replied with greetings. Then, I said, "Peace be upon you, O Commander of the Faithful, and the mercy of Allah." He said, "O son of Ziyad, we do not deny the first thing you said." The scribe was reading to him the grievances that came from Basra. Then, he told me to sit, so I sat on a step near the door while he listened to the scribe reading. Umar was sighing heavily. When he finished, he dismissed everyone in the room until only I and him were present. He sat in front of me and placed his hands on my knees. Then, he said, "O son of Abi Ziyad, have you worn this armor?" I said, "Yes, I have a padded armor made of wool and I have rested from what we were in." Then, he asked me about the righteous men and women of Madinah, and he asked me about the matters he had commanded them in Madinah, and I informed him. Then, he said, "O son of Abi Ziyad, don't you see what has happened to me?" I said, "Rejoice, O Commander of the Faithful, for I hope good for you." He said, "Never, never." Then, he cried until I also mourned for him. I said, "O Commander of the Faithful, some of your actions are praiseworthy, for I hope good for you." He said, "Never, never. I neither insult nor am I insulted, I neither strike nor am I struck, I neither harm nor am I harmed." He said, and then he cried until I also mourned for him. So, I stayed until he fulfilled my needs, and he wrote to my master asking him to sell me, but he refused and then freed me.
