9. Book of Ṣalāh
٩۔ كِتَابُ الصَّلَاةِ
When the people encamped, (the narrator Amr ibn Uthman al-Himsi) said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ encamped, the people scattered in the glens and wadis. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Your scattering in these glens and wadis is only of the devil. They afterwards kept close together when they encamped to such an extent that it used to be said that if a cloth were spread over them, it would cover them all. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2628)
كَانَ النَّاسُ إِذَا نَزَلُوا مَنْزِلًا تَفَرَّقُوا فِي الشِّعَابِ وَالْأَوْدِيَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ تَفَرُّقَكُمْ فِي هَذِهِ الشِّعَابِ وَالْأَوْدِيَةِ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكُمْ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ» قَالَ فَلَمْ يَنْزِلُوا بَعْدُ مَنْزِلًا إِلَّا انْضَمَّ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ حَتَّى لَوْ بُسِطَ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَوْبٌ لَعَمَّهُمْ
ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ نَفَى جَوَازَ التَّزَوُّدِ لِلْأَسْفَارِ
[Machine] "They used to perform Hajj but would not prepare for it." Then Allah revealed, "And take provisions, but indeed, the best provision is Taqwa (piety)."
«كَانُوا يَحُجُّونَ وَلَا يَتَزَوَّدُونَ» فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {وَتَزَوَّدُوا فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ الزَّادِ التَّقْوَى}
ذِكْرُ مَا يَدْعُو الْمَرْءُ بِهِ لِأَخِيهِ إِذَا عَزَمَ عَلَى سَفَرٍ يُرِيدُ الْخُرُوجَ فِيهِ
[Machine] A man came to him while he wanted to travel and greeted him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I advise you to fear Allah and to say Allahu Akbar upon every high place." When the man turned away, he said, "O Allah, grant him ease in his journey and make his travel easy for him."
أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَهُ وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ سَفَرًا فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أُوصِيكَ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ» حَتَّى إِذَا أَدْبَرَ الرَّجُلُ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ ازْوِ لَهُ الْأَرْضَ وَهَوِّنْ عَلَيْهِ السَّفَرَ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَقُولُ الْمَرْءُ لِأَخِيهِ عِنْدَ الْوَدَاعِ فَيَحْفَظُهُ اللَّهُ فِي سَفَرِهِ
[Machine] Indeed, I do not have anything to give you, but I heard the Messenger of Allahﷺ say, "If Allah entrusts something to someone, He will protect it. And indeed, I entrust to Allah your religion, your trustworthiness, and the outcomes of your deeds."
إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مَعِي شَيْءٌ أُعْطِيكُمَا وَلَكِنْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِذَا اسْتَوْدَعَ اللَّهُ شَيْئًا حَفِظَهُ وَإِنِّي أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللَّهَ دِينَكُمَا وَأَمَانَتَكُمَا وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكُمَا»
ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ بِالتَّسْمِيَةِ لِمَنْ أَرَادَ رُكُوبَ الْإِبِلِ لِيُنَفِّرَ الشَّيَاطِينَ عَنْ ظُهُورِهَا بِهَا
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "On the back of every camel, there is a devil. So when you ride it, mention the name of Allah and do not neglect your needs."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «عَلَى ظَهْرِ كُلِّ بَعِيرٍ شَيْطَانٌ فَإِذَا رَكِبْتُمُوهَا فَسَمُّوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تَقْصُرُوا عَنْ حَاجَاتِكُمْ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ عِنْدَ الرُّكُوبِ لِسَفَرٍ يُرِيدُ الْخُرُوجَ فِيهِ
When the Prophet ﷺ wanted to travel, when he mounted his riding camel, he would say the Takbir three times and say: Glory is to Him Who has subjected this to us, and we were not able to do it. And, surely, to our Lord are we returning (Subḥān alladhī sakh-khara lanā hādhā wa mā kunnā lahū muqrinīn. Wa innā ilā rabbinā lamunqalibūn). Then he would say: “O Allah, I ask You in this journey of mine from the righteousness and piety and actions that which you are pleased with. O Allah, ease for us the path, and make near for us the distance of the land. O Allah, You are the companion in the journey, and the caretaker for the family. O Allah, accompany us in our journey, and take care of our families (Allāhumma innī as’aluka fī safarī hādhā minal-birri wat-taqwā, wa minal-ʿamali mā tarḍā. Allāhumma hawwin ʿalainal-masīra, waṭwi ʿannā buʿdal-arḍ. Allāhumma antaṣ-ṣāḥibu fis safari wal-khalīfatu fil-ahli. Allāhumma aṣḥabnā fī safarinā wakhlufnā fī ahlinā).” And when he would return to his family, he would say: “(We are) Returning, if Allah wills, repenting, worshipping, and to our Lord directing the praise (Ā’ibūna in shā’ Allāh, tā’ibūna ʿābidūna lirabbinā hāmidūn).” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3447)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا سَافَرَ فَرَكِبَ رَاحِلَتَهُ كَبَّرَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ {سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ} يَقْرَأُ الْآيَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ «اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ فِي سَفَرِي هَذَا الْبِرَّ وَالتَّقْوَى وَمِنَ الْعَمَلِ مَا تَرْضَى اللَّهُمَّ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا السَّفَرَ وَاطْوِ لَنَا الْأَرْضَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ اللَّهُمَّ اصْحَبْنَا فِي سَفَرِنَا فَاخْلُفْنَا فِي أَهْلِنَا» وَكَانَ إِذَا رَجَعَ قَالَ «آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ»
ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ خَبَرَ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ الَّذِي ذَكَرْنَاهُ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ
Hallowed is He Who subdued for us this (ride) and we were not ourselves powerful enough to use It as a ride, and we are going to return to our Lord. O Allah, we seek virtue and piety from Thee in this journey of ours and the act which pleaseth Thee. O Allah, lighten this journey of ours, and make its distance easy for us. O Allah, Thou art (our) companion during the journey, and guardian of (our) family. O Allah, I seek refuge with Thee from hardships of the journey, gloominess of the sights, and finding of evil changes in property and family on return. And he (the Holy Prophet) uttered (these words), and made this addition to them: We are returning, repentant, worshipping our Lord. and praising Him. (Using translation from Muslim 1342)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا اسْتَوَى عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ خَارِجًا إِلَى سَفَرٍ كَبَّرَ ثَلَاثًا وَقَالَ {سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ} «اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْأَلُكَ فِي سَفَرِنَا هَذَا الْبِرَّ وَالتَّقْوَى وَمِنَ الْعَمَلِ مَا تَرْضَى اللَّهُمَّ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا سَفَرَنَا هَذَا وَاطْوِ عَنَّا بُعْدَهُ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ وَكَآبَةِ الْمَنْظَرِ وَسُوءِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ فِي الْأَهْلِ وَالْمَالِ وَالْوَلَدِ» فَإِذَا رَجَعَ قَالَهُنَّ وَزَادَ فِيهِنَّ «آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ»
ذِكْرُ الْإِبَاحَةِ لِلْمَرْءِ أَنْ يَزِيدَ فِي هَذَا الدُّعَاءِ كَلِمَاتٍ أُخَرَ
[Machine] "In the name of Allah. When he ascended upon it, he said, 'Praise be to Allah who honored us, carried us on land and sea, provided us with good things, and favored us over many of His creations. Glory be to the One who has subjected these for us, as we would not have been able to do so on our own. Indeed, to our Lord we will return.' Then he raised his voice and said three times, 'O Allah, forgive me, for no one forgives sins except You.' Then he said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did the same, and I follow his example.'"
«بِسْمِ اللَّهِ» فَلَمَّا اسْتَوَى عَلَيْهَا قَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَكْرَمَنَا وَحَمَلَنَا فِي الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ وَرَزَقَنَا مِنَ الطَّيِّبَاتِ وَفَضَّلَنَا عَلَى كَثِيرٍ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَهُ تَفْضِيلًا {سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ} » ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ غَيْرُكَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «فَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِثْلَ هَذَا وَأَنَا رِدْفُهُ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَحْمَدُ الْعَبْدُ رَبَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا عِنْدَ الرُّكُوبِ لِسَفَرٍ يُرِيدُهُ
I saw ‘Ali ؓ when a mount was brought to him to ride. When he put his foot in the stirrup, he said: Bismillah (in the Name of Allah). When he got on it, he said: Glory be to the One Who has placed this (transport) at our service and we ourselves would not have been capable of that, and to our Lord is our final destiny. Then he said Alhamdulillah three times and Allahu Akbar three times, then he said: Glory be to You, there is no god but You. I have indeed wronged myself, so forgive me. Then he smiled, and I said: Why are you smiting, O Ameer al-Muʿmimeen? He said: I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ do what I have done, then he smiled and I said: Why are you smiling O Messenger of Allah ﷺ He said: ʿThe Lord marvels at His slave when he says, ʿLord forgive me,ʿ and He says: ʿMy slave knows that no one forgives sins but Me.ʿ (Using translation from Aḥmad 753)
شَهِدْتُ عَلِيًّا أُتِيَ بِدَابَّةٍ لِيَرْكَبَهَا فَلَمَّا وَضَعَ رِجْلَهُ فِي الرِّكَابِ قَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فَلَمَّا اسْتَوَى عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ {سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ} ثُمَّ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ثَلَاثًا اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ثَلَاثًا سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ قُلْتُ مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ ضَحِكْتَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ صَنَعَ كَمَا صَنَعْتُ ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ فَقُلْتُ مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ ضَحِكْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَيَعْجَبُ مِنْ عَبْدِهِ إِذَا قَالَ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي ذُنُوبِي قَالَ عَلِمَ عَبْدِي أَنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ غَيْرِي»
ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ دَعْوَةَ الْمُسَافِرِ لَا تُرَدُّ مَا دَامَ فِي سَفَرِهِ
"Three supplications are accepted , there is no doubt in them (about them being accepted): The supplication of the oppressed, the supplication of the traveler, and the supplication of a parent against his child." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1905)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ «ثَلَاثُ دَعَوَاتٍ مُسْتَجَابَاتٌ لَا شَكَّ فِيهِنَّ دَعْوَةُ الْمَظْلُومِ وَدَعْوَةُ الْمُسَافِرِ وَدَعْوَةُ الْوَالِدِ عَلَى وَلَدِهِ»
ذِكْرُ الشَّيْءِ الَّذِي إِذَا قَالَ الْمُسَافِرُ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ أَمِنَ الضَّرَرَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى يَرْتَحِلَ مِنْهُ
“If anyone of you, when he stops to camp (while on a journey), says A’udhu bi kalimatil-lahit-tammati min sharri ma khalaq (I seek refuge in the Perfect Words of Allah from the evil of that which He has created), then nothing will harm him in that place until he moves on.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3547)
أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِذَا نَزَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ مَنْزِلًا فَلْيَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَضُرُّهُ شَيْءٌ حَتَّى يَرْتَحِلَ مِنْهُ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَقُولُ الْمُسَافِرُ إِذَا أَسْحَرَ فِي سَفَرٍ
Let a hearer hear beginning with praise of Allah and His good favours and blessing to us. Our Lord, accompany us and show favour to us, and I seek refuge in Allah from Hell. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 5086)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا سَافَرَ وَجَاءَ سَحَرًا يَقُولُ «سَمِعَ سَامِعٌ بِحَمْدِ اللَّهِ وَحُسْنِ بَلَائِهِ رَبَّنَا صَاحِبْنَا فَأَفْضِلْ عَلَيْنَا عَائِذٌ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ النَّارِ»
ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ لِلَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ لِلْمُسَافِرِ فِي سَفَرِهِ
[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, advise me," so the Messenger of Allahﷺ said to him, "I advise you to fear Allah and to utter the takbir on every noble occasion." When the man left, the Prophetﷺ said, "O Allah, grant him wealth and make his journey easy for him."
يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَوْصِنِي فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أُوصِيكَ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ» فَلَمَّا وَلَّى الرَّجُلُ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اللَّهُمَّ ازْوِ لَهُ الْأَرْضَ وَهَوِّنْ عَلَيْهِ السَّفَرَ»
ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ بِالْإِسْرَاعِ فِي السَّيْرِ عَلَى ذَوَاتِ الْأَرْبَعِ إِذَا سَافَرَ الْمَرْءُ فِي السَّنَةِ عَلَيْهَا
When you journey through a fertile land, you should (go slow and) give the camels a chance to graze in the land. When you travel In an arid (land) where there is scarcity of vegetation, you should quicken their pace (lest your camels grow feeble and emaciated for lack of fodder). When you halt for the night, avoid (pitching your tent on) the road, for it is the abode of noxious little animals at night. (Using translation from Muslim 1926a)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي الْخِصْبِ فَأَعْطُوا الْإِبِلَ حَقَّهَا وَإِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي السَّنَةِ فَأَسْرِعُوا السَّيْرَ عَلَيْهَا وَإِذَا عَرَّسْتُمْ فَاجْتَنِبُوا الطَّرِيقَ فَإِنَّهَا مَأْوَى الْهَوَامِّ»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنْ سَفَرِ الْمَرْءِ وَحْدَهُ بِاللَّيْلِ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "If people knew what lies in solitude, no one would ever travel alone at night."
عنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَوْ يَعْلَمُ النَّاسُ مَا فِي الْوَحْدَةِ مَا سَارَ رَاكِبٌ بِلَيْلٍ أَبَدًا»
ذِكْرُ الزَّجْرِ عَنِ التَّعْرِيسِ عَلَى جَوَادِّ الطَّرِيقِ
When you journey through a fertile land, you should (go slow and) give the camels a chance to graze in the land. When you travel In an arid (land) where there is scarcity of vegetation, you should quicken their pace (lest your camels grow feeble and emaciated for lack of fodder). When you halt for the night, avoid (pitching your tent on) the road, for it is the abode of noxious little animals at night. (Using translation from Muslim 1926a)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي الْخِصْبِ فَأَعْطُوا الْإِبِلَ حَقَّهَا وَإِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي السَّنَةِ فَأَسْرِعُوا السَّيْرَ وَإِذَا عَرَّسْتُمْ بِاللَّيْلِ فَاجْتَنِبُوا الطَّرِيقَ فَإِنَّهَا مَأْوَى الْهَوَامِّ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْمَرْءِ أَنْ يَسْتَعْمِلَ فِي سَفَرِهِ إِذَا صَعُبَ عَلَيْهِ الْمَشْيُ وَالْمَشَقَّةُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out to Makkah in the year of the conquest during the month of Ramadan until he reached the Kura'al-Ghamim. It was said to him, "The people are fasting even though they are on foot or riding." They told him, "The people find it difficult to fast, they are just watching what you do." So he called for a cup and lifted it up towards his mouth so the people could see, and then he drank from it. Some people broke their fast and others continued to fast. The Prophet ﷺ was told, "Some of them are still fasting." He said, "Those are the disobedient ones." Then the people who were on foot from his companions gathered and said, "We are exposed to the supplications of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the journey has become difficult and the hardship has increased." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "Seek help through taking off your shoes, as it cuts off the mark from the earth and you will remain hidden for him." They did as he advised and lightened the burden for him.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فِي رَمَضَانَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ كُرَاعَ الْغَمِيمِ قَالَ فَصَامَ النَّاسُ وَهُمْ مُشَاةٌ وَرُكْبَانٌ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ شَقَّ عَلَيْهِمُ الصَّوْمُ إِنَّمَا يَنْظُرُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُ فَدَعَا بِقَدَحٍ فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى فِيهِ حَتَّى نَظَرَ النَّاسُ ثُمَّ شَرِبَ فَأَفْطَرَ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ وَصَامَ بَعْضٌ فَقِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنَّ بَعْضَهُمْ صَامَ فَقَالَ «أُولَئِكَ الْعُصَاةُ» وَاجْتَمَعَ الْمُشَاةُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالُوا نَتَعَرَّضُ لِدَعَوَاتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَدِ اشْتَدَّ السَّفَرُ وَطَالَتِ الْمَشَقَّةُ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اسْتَعِينُوا بِالنَّسْلِ فَإِنَّهُ يَقْطَعُ عَلَمَ الْأَرْضِ وَتَخِفُّونَ لَهُ» قَالَ فَفَعَلْنَا فَخَفَفْنَا لَهُ *
ذِكْرُ مَا يَقُولُ الْمَرْءُ عِنْدَ قُفُولِهِ مِنَ الْأَسْفَارِ
‘Abd Allah bin ‘Umar said “When the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ returned from an expedition, Hajj or ‘Umrah on every rising piece of ground he would say three times “Allaah is Most Great” and he would say “There is no god bt Allaah alone who has no partner, to Whom the dominion belongs, to Whom praise is due, and Who is Omnipotent, serving, prostrating ourselves before our Lord and expressing praise. Allaah alone has kept his word, helped His servant and routed the confederate. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2770)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَفَلَ مِنْ غَزْوٍ أَوْ حَجٍّ أَوْ عُمْرَةٍ كَبَّرَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ ثَلَاثَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ «لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ سَاجِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ»
ذِكْرُ الْإِخْبَارِ عَمَّا يَجِبُ لِلْمَرْءِ عِنْدَ طُولِ سَفْرَتِهِ سُرْعَةُ الْأَوْبَةِ إِلَى وَطَنِهِ
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Journey is a piece of torture, for it disturbs one's sleep, eating and drinking. So, when you fulfill your job, you should hurry up to your family." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3001)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «السَّفَرُ قِطْعَةٌ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ يَمْنَعُ أَحَدَكُمْ نَوْمَهُ وَطَعَامَهُ وَشَرَابَهُ فَإِذَا قَضَى أَحَدُكُمْ نَهْمَتَهُ مِنْ سَفَرِهِ فَلْيُعَجِّلِ الرُّجُوعَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَقُولُ الْمُسَافِرُ إِذَا رَأَى قَرْيَةً يُرِيدُ دُخُولَهَا
[Machine] Ka'ab swore to him by the One who split the sea for Musa that Suhaib told him that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would not see a town he wanted to enter except that he would say when he saw it: "O Allah, Lord of the seven heavens and what they shade, Lord of the seven earths and what they contain, Lord of the winds and what they scatter, Lord of the devils and what they lead astray, we ask You for the good of this town and the good of its people, and seek refuge in You from its evil and the evil of its people and from the evil therein."
أَنَّ كَعْبًا حَلَفَ لَهُ بِالَّذِي فَلَقَ الْبَحْرَ لِمُوسَى أَنَّ صُهَيْبًا حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَرَى قَرْيَةً يُرِيدُ دُخُولَهَا إِلَّا قَالَ حِينَ يَرَاهَا «اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَمَا أَظْلَلْنَ وَرَبَّ الْأَرَضِينَ السَّبْعِ وَمَا أَقْلَلْنَ وَرَبَّ الرِّيَاحِ وَمَا ذَرَيْنَ وَرَبَّ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَمَا أَضْلَلْنَ نَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ هَذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ وَخَيْرَ أَهْلِهَا وَنَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ أَهْلِهَا وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا»
ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْمَرْءِ الْإِيضَاعُ إِذَا دَنَا مِنْ بَلَدِهِ
When the Prophet would return from a trip and see the walls of Al-Madinah, he would speed up his riding camel, and if he was upon a beast, he would agitate it, out of his love for Al-Madinah. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3441)
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى جُدُرَاتِ الْمَدِينَةِ أَوْضَعَ رَاحِلَتَهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَلَى دَابَّةٍ حَرَّكَهَا مِنْ حُبِّهَا»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَقُولُ الْمَرْءُ عِنْدَ الْقُدُومِ مِنْ سَفَرِهِ
That whenever the Prophet ﷺ would return from a trip, he would say: “(We are) Returning, repenting, worshipping, and to our Lord directing the praise (Ā’ibūna tā’būna ʿābidūna lirabbinā ḥāmidūn).” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3440)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ قَالَ «آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ»

٩۔٢٨۔٢٢ ذِكْرُ خَبَرٍ قَدْ يُوهِمُ غَيْرَ الْمُتَبَحِّرِ فِي صِنَاعَةِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ خَبَرَ شُعْبَةَ الَّذِي ذَكَرْنَاهُ مَعْلُولٌ
[Machine] I heard Al-Bara' saying that the Prophet ﷺ used to say, "We are returning, repenting, and praising our Lord."
سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ يَقُولُ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا رَجَعَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ قَالَ «آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ»
[Machine] On the authority of Nubayh Al-Anazi, on the authority of Jabir ibn Abdullah, from the Prophet ﷺ who said, "When one of you enters the night, do not disturb his family."
عَنْ نُبَيْحٍ الْعَنَزِيِّ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا دَخَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ لَيْلًا فَلَا يَطْرُقْ أَهْلَهُ طُرُوقًا»

ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُقْتَضِي لِلَّفْظَةِ الْمُخْتَصَرَةِ الَّتِي ذَكَرْنَاهَا
[Machine] "We were with the Prophet ﷺ during a military expedition, and when we arrived, he said, 'Wait until the hair is combed and the gazelles return to their caves.'"
كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةٍ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا قَالَ «أَمْهِلُوا حَتَّى تَمْتَشِطَ الشَّعِثَةُ وَتَسْتَحِدَّ الْمَغِيبَةُ»
ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ لِلْقَادِمِ مِنَ السَّفَرِ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ قَبْلَ دُخُولِهِ مَنْزِلَهُ
[Machine] I heard Jabir ibn Abdullah say, "We were with the Messenger of Allah during a journey. When we arrived in the city, the Prophet ordered him (Jabir) to go to the mosque and pray two rak'ahs."
سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ قَالَ «فَلَمَّا أَتَى الْمَدِينَةَ أَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَيُصَلِّيَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»
ذِكْرُ مَا يَقُولُ الْمَرْءُ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ بَيْتَهُ إِذَا رَجَعَ قَافِلًا مِنْ سَفَرِهِ
[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ intended to embark on a journey, he would say, 'O Allah, You are the Companion on the journey, and the Guardian of the family. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from experiencing fatigue during the journey and feeling sadness upon returning. O Allah, make the travel easy for us and bring us back home safely.'
And when he intended to return, he would say, 'Returning, repenting, worshiping, and prostrating to our Lord.'
And when he entered his house, he would say, 'Returning, repenting to our Lord, and pardoning that which does not harm us.'"
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ فِي سَفَرِهِ قَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الضِّبْنَةِ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْكَآبَةِ فِي الْمُنْقَلَبِ اللَّهُمَّ اقْبِضْ لَنَا الْأَرْضَ وَهَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا السَّفَرَ» فَإِذَا أَرَادَ الرُّجُوعَ قَالَ «آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا سَاجِدُونَ» فَإِذَا دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ قَالَ «تَوْبًا تَوْبًا لِرَبِّنَا أَوْبًا لَا يُغَادِرُ عَلَيْنَا حَوْبًا»
ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ بِإِرْضَاءِ الْمَرْءِ أَهْلَهُ عِنْدَ قُدُومِهِ مِنْ سَفَرِهِ
[Machine] I went with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a military expedition. He asked, "Have you gotten married?" I replied, "Yes." He asked, "Did you marry a virgin or a widow?" I said, "No, I married a widow." He asked, "Don't you desire to have a wife who can play with you and you can play with her?" I said, "I have sisters, so I preferred to marry a woman who can bring them together, comb their hair, and take care of them." He said, "Since you are coming, then be as wise as possible."
خَرَجْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةٍ فَقَالَ «تَزَوَّجْتَ؟ » قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «بِكْرًا أَمْ ثَيِّبًا؟ » قُلْتُ بَلْ ثَيِّبًا قَالَ «فَهَلَّا جَارِيَةً تُلَاعِبُهَا وَتُلَاعِبُكَ؟ » قُلْتُ إِنَّ لِي أَخَوَاتٍ فَأَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ أَتَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً تَجْمَعُهُنَّ وَتُمَشِّطُهُنَّ وَتَقُومُ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّكَ قَادِمٌ فَإِذَا قَدِمْتَ فَالْكَيْسَ الْكَيْسَ»
