27. Book of the Companions
٢٧۔ كِتَابُ مَعْرِفَةِ الصَّحَابَةِ ؓ
[Machine] "In my house, the verse 'Indeed, Allah desires to repel from you filth, O People of the Household' [33:33] was revealed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, 'Ali, Fatimah, Hasan, and Husayn are the People of my Household.'"
فِي بَيْتِي نَزَلَتْ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ} [الأحزاب 33] قَالَتْ فَأَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ وَفَاطِمَةَ وَالْحَسَنِ وَالْحُسَيْنِ فَقَالَ «هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي»
[Machine] Fatimah went to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and called him. He came with the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and I entered with them. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, called Hasan and Husain, and each sat on one of his thighs, while Fatimah sat closest to him. Then he covered them with a garment and said, "Indeed, Allah wants to remove impurity from you, O people of the household, and purify you completely." Then he said, "These are the people of my household, O Allah, the people of my household are more deserving."
لِي فَاطِمَةُ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدْعُوهُ فَجَاءَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَدَخَلَا وَدَخَلْتُ مَعَهُمَا فَدَعَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْحَسَنَ وَالْحُسَيْنَ فَأَقْعَدَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى فَخِذَيْهِ وَأَدْنَى فَاطِمَةَ مِنْ حِجْرِهِ وَزَوْجِهَا ثُمَّ لَفَّ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَوْبًا وَقَالَ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ} [الأحزاب 33] أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي اللَّهُمَّ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي أَحَقُّ»
Allah only desires to take away any uncleanliness from you, O people of the household, and purify you (thorough purifying) (Using translation from Muslim 2424)
خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ غَدَاةً وَعَلَيْهِ مِرْطٌ مُرَجِّلٌ مِنْ شَعْرٍ أَسْوَدَ فَجَاءَ الْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ فَأَدْخَلَهُمَا مَعَهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَتْ فَاطِمَةُ فَأَدْخَلَهَا مَعَهُمَا ثُمَّ جَاءَ عَلِيٌّ فَأَدْخَلَهُ مَعَهُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا} [الأحزاب 33]
[Machine] Saad received the revelation from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Then, he brought Ali, Fatimah, and their two sons under his robe. He said, "O Allah, these are my family and the people of my household" - Ali and Al-Bakir - and spoke about them.
سَعْدٌ نَزَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْوَحْيُ فَأَدْخَلَ عَلِيًّا وَفَاطِمَةَ وَابْنَيْهِمَا تَحْتَ ثَوْبَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِي» علي وبكير تكلم فيهما
[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw the descending mercy, he said, "Pray for me, pray for me." Safiyah asked, "Who should we pray for, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Pray for the people of my household, Ali, Fatimah, Hasan, and Husayn." They were brought to him, and he placed his cloak over them. Then he raised his hands and said, "O Allah, these are my family, so bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad." Allah the Exalted then revealed, "Indeed, Allah wants to repel impurity from you, O people of the household, and purify you with thorough purification." [Surah Al-Ahzab 33]
لَمَّا نَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى الرَّحْمَةِ هَابِطَةً قَالَ «ادْعُوا لِي ادْعُوا لِي» فَقَالَتْ صَفِيَّةُ مَنْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «أَهْلَ بَيْتِي عَلِيًّا وَفَاطِمَةَ وَالْحَسَنَ وَالْحُسَيْنَ» فَجِيءَ بِهِمْ فَأَلْقَى عَلَيْهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ كِسَاءَهُ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ هَؤُلَاءِ آلِي فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ» وَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا} [الأحزاب 33]
[Machine] Ka'b ibn 'Ujrah met me and said, "Should I not give you a gift that I heard from the Prophet ﷺ?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Say, 'O Allah, send prayers upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You have sent prayers upon Ibrahim and upon the family of Ibrahim. Indeed, You are commendable and glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You have blessed Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. Indeed, You are praiseworthy and glorious.'" This hadith has been narrated by Imam Muhammad ibn Ismail al-Bukhari from Musa ibn Ismail in his authentic compilation. I have mentioned it so that the beneficiary may know that all the Ahl al-Bayt (Family of the Prophet) and the descendants, as well as Abu Farwah and Urwah ibn al-Harith al-Hamdani, are among the reliable companions in Kufa.
لَقِيَنِي كَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ فَقَالَ أَلَا أُهْدِي لَكَ هَدِيَّةً سَمِعْتُهَا مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَاهْدِهَا إِلَيَّ قَالَ سَأَلْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ الصَّلَاةُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ قَالَ «قُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حُمَيْدٌ مَجِيدٌ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ» وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ وَأَلْفَاظِهِ حَرْفًا بَعْدَ حَرْفٍ الْإِمَامُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْبُخَارِيُّ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ فِي الْجَامِعِ الصَّحِيحِ وَإِنَّمَا خَرَّجْتُهُ لِيَعْلَمَ الْمُسْتَفِيدُ أَنَّ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَالْآلَ جَمِيعًا هُمْ وَأَبُو فَرْوَةَ وَعُرْوَةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ مِنْ أَوْثَقِ التَّابِعِينَ بِالْكُوفَةِ
[Machine] Narrated by him, he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I am leaving behind among you two weighty things, the Book of Allah and my family, and these two will never be separated until they meet me at the Pond (of Kawthar)."
عَنْه قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِّي تَارِكٌ فِيكُمُ الثَّقَلَيْنِ كِتَابَ اللهِ وَأَهْلَ بَيْتِي وَإِنَّهُمَا لَنْ يَتَفَرَّقَا حَتَّى يَرِدَا عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O children of Abd al-Muttalib, indeed I have asked Allah for three things for you: that He strengthens your leader, guides your misguided ones, and teaches knowledge to your ignorant ones. And I have also asked Allah to make you generous, noble, and compassionate. So, if a man stands in prayer and in fasting and then meets Allah while harboring hatred towards the family of Muhammad, he shall enter the fire."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَا بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ لَكُمْ ثَلَاثًا أَنْ يُثَبِّتُ قَائِمَكُمْ وَأَنْ يَهْدِيَ ضَالَّكُمْ وَأَنْ يُعَلِّمَ جَاهِلَكُمْ وَسَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَكُمْ جُوَدَاءَ نُجَدَاءَ رُحَمَاءَ فَلَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا صَفَنَ بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْمَقَامِ فَصَلَّى وَصَامَ ثُمَّ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ وَهُوَ مُبْغِضٌ لِأَهْلِ بَيْتِ مُحَمَّدٍ دَخَلَ النَّارَ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ looked at Ali, Fatimah, Hasan, and Husain and said, "I am at war with whoever wages war against you, and I am at peace with whoever makes peace with you."
نَظَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ وَفَاطِمَةَ وَالْحَسَنِ وَالْحُسَيْنِ فَقَالَ «أَنَا حَرْبٌ لِمَنْ حَارَبَكُمْ وَسِلْمٌ لِمَنْ سَالَمَكُمْ»
[Machine] "From the Prophet ﷺ , that he said to Ali, Fatimah, Hasan, and Hussein: 'I am a war for those who wage war against you, and a peace for those who make peace with you.' Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in his summary."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ وَفَاطِمَةَ وَالْحَسَنِ وَالْحُسَيْنِ «أَنَا حَرْبٌ لِمَنْ حَارَبْتُمْ وَسِلْمٌ لِمَنْ سَالَمْتُمْ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The stars are a source of safety for the people of the Earth from drowning, and the people of my household are a source of safety for my Ummah (nation) from division. So if a tribe among the Arabs opposes them, they will become the party of Satan."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «النُّجُومُ أَمَانٌ لِأَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ مِنَ الْغَرَقِ وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِي أَمَانٌ لِأُمَّتِي مِنَ الِاخْتِلَافِ فَإِذَا خَالَفَتْهَا قَبِيلَةٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ اخْتَلَفُوا فَصَارُوا حِزْبَ إِبْلِيسَ»
that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Love Allah for what He nourishes you with of His Blessings, love me due to the love of Allah, and love the people of my house due to love of me." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3789)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَحِبُّوا اللَّهَ لِمَا يَغْذُوكُمْ بِهِ مِنْ نِعَمِهِ وَأَحِبُّونِي لِحُبِّ اللَّهِ وَأَحِبُّوا أَهْلَ بَيْتِي لِحُبِّي»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, none from the people of the household dislikes us except that Allah will admit them into the Fire."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا يَبْغَضُنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ النَّارَ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "My Lord has promised me that anyone among my family who affirms the Oneness of Allah and supports me in conveying the message will not be punished." Omar bin Sa'id Al-Ahha narrated, and Sa'id bin Abi 'Arubah died on Thursday, and he had narrated this hadith on Friday. He died seven days later in the mosque. Some people said, "May Allah reward you, O companion of rejection and calamity." And some people said, "May Allah reward you, O companion of the Sunnah and the community. You have fulfilled what you have heard."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «وَعَدَنِي رَبِّي فِي أَهْلِ بَيْتِي مَنْ أَقَرَّ مِنْهُمْ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ وَلِي بِالْبَلَاغِ أَنْ لَا يُعَذِّبَهُمْ» قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَبَحُّ وَمَاتَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ وَكَانَ حَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ مَاتَ بَعْدَهُ بِسَبْعَةِ أَيَّامٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ قَوْمٌ لَا جَزَاكَ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا صَاحِبَ رَفْضٍ وَبَلَاءٍ وَقَالَ قَوْمٌ جَزَاكَ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا صَاحِبَ سُنَّةٍ وَجَمَاعَةٍ أَدَّيْتَ مَا سَمِعْتَ
from his father who said: "When this Ayah was revealed: 'Come, let us call our sons and your sons, our women and your women... (3:61)' the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called 'Ali, Fatimah, Hasan and Husain and said: 'O Allah! This is my family.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2999)
لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {نَدْعُ أَبْنَاءَنَا وَأَبْنَاءَكُمْ وَنِسَاءَنَا وَنِسَاءَكُمْ وَأَنْفُسَنَا وَأَنْفُسَكُمْ} [آل عمران 61] دَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلِيًّا وَفَاطِمَةَ وَحَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا فَقَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي»
[Machine] I heard Abu Dharr saying while holding onto the door of the Kaaba, "Whoever knows me, I am the one who knows myself, and whoever denies me, I am Abu Dharr. I heard the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ saying, 'Surely the example of my Ahlul Bayt (family) among you is like the ark of Noah among his people. Whoever boards it will be saved, and whoever stays behind will drown.'" - Mufaddal ibn Salih Al-Wah.
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ يَقُولُ وَهُوَ آخِذٌ بِبَابِ الْكَعْبَةِ مَنْ عَرَفَنِي فَأَنَا مَنْ عَرَفَنِي وَمَنْ أَنْكَرَنِي فَأَنَا أَبُو ذَرٍّ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «أَلَا إِنَّ مَثَلَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي فِيكُمْ مَثَلُ سَفِينَةِ نُوحٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ مَنْ رَكِبَهَا نَجَا وَمَنْ تَخَلَّفَ عَنْهَا غَرِقَ» مفضل بن صالح واه
