12. Chapter of Zay (Male)
١٢۔ بَابُ الزَّايِ
"Do not sell fruits until they have ripened."' (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2215)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا تَبِيعُوا الثَّمَرَةَ حَتَّى يَبْدُوَ صَلَاحُهَا»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to pray at Al-Hijr or Al-Hajirah, and it was the most difficult prayer for his companions. Then the verse {Maintain with care the [obligatory] prayers and [in particular] the middle prayer and stand before Allah, devoutly obedient.} was revealed. He said, "Because before it there were two prayers and after it there were two prayers."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي بِالْهَجِيرِ أَوْ قَالَ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ وَكَانَتْ أَثْقَلَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَنَزَلَتْ {حَافِظُوا عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ وَالصَّلَاةِ الْوُسْطَى وَقُومُوا لِلَّهِ قَانِتِينَ} قَالَ «لِأَنَّ قَبْلَهَا صَلَاتَيْنِ وَبَعْدَهَا صَلَاتَيْنِ»
“May Allah (SWT) forgive Rafi' bin Khadij. By Allah (SWT)! I have more knowledge of Ahadith than he does. Two men who had quarreled came to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: 'If this is your situation, do not lease farms,' and what Rafi' bin khadij heard was 'Do not lease farms.' ” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2461)
يَغْفِرُ اللهُ لِرَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ أَنَا وَاللهِ كُنْتُ أَعْلَمَ بِالْحَدِيثِ مِنْهُ إِنَّمَا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَجُلَانِ قَدِ اقْتَتَلَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنْ كَانَ هَذَا شَأْنُكُمْ فَلَا تُكْرُوا الْمَزَارِعَ» فَسَمِعَ رَافِعٌ قَوْلَهُ «لَا تُكْرُوا الْمَزَارِعَ» وَاللَّفْظُ لِحَدِيثِ مُسَدَّدٍ
[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ prayed two units of prayer at Al-Maghrib (sunset) in Al-A'raf."
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَرَأَ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ بِالْأَعْرَافِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ»
[Machine] That the Prophet ﷺ used to recite Surah Al-Anfal in the two units (rak'ahs) of Maghrib prayer.
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ بِسُورَةِ الْأَنْفَالِ»
[Machine] "I saw the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , leading us in the Maghrib prayer until he completed it."
«رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَّنَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ بِ الْمص حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ عَلَى آخِرِهَا»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Nothing should be sold from fruits until their goodness becomes apparent, which means that the ripe red should be distinguishable from yellow."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يُبَاعُ شَيْءٌ مِنَ الثَّمَرِ حَتَّى يَبْدُوَ صَلَاحُهُ وَذَلِكَ أَنْ يَتَبَيَّنَ الزَّهْوُ الْأَحْمَرُ مِنَ الْأَصْفَرِ»
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reciting the longest two surahs during Maghrib prayer.
«سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ بِأَطْوَلِ الطَّوِيلتَيْنِ»
