The Prophet ﷺ said: "The tasbih is for men and clapping is for women." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1210)   

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «إِنَّمَا التَّصْفِيحُ لِلنِّسَاءِ وَالتَّسْبِيحُ لِلرِّجَالِ»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The people will remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1957)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَزَالُ النَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْفِطْرَ»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "The station of one of you in the cause of Allah is better than the world and everything in it."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَمُقَامُ أَحَدِكُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا»  

[Machine] "There was a conflict among the Ansar, and the Prophet ﷺ came to them to reconcile between them. The Prophet ﷺ came, and Abu Bakr was leading the people in prayer, so he prayed behind Abu Bakr."  

«كَانَ كَوْنٌ فِي الْأَنْصَارِ فَأَتَاهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِيُصْلِحَ بَيْنَهُمْ وَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ فَصَلَّى خَلْفَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ»  

[Machine] While we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he was describing Paradise until he reached its end. Then he said, "In it is what no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no human heart has ever imagined." Then he recited this verse: "On beds (of Paradise) raised high, they will invoke their Lord (Allah) with fear and hope, and from what We have provided them, they will spend." Until he reached the statement in the verse: "A reward for what they used to do."  

بَيْنَا نَحْنُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَصِفُ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «فِيهَا مَا لَا عَيْنٌ رَأَتْ وَلَا أُذُنٌ سَمِعَتْ وَلَا عَلَى قَلْبِ بَشَرٍ خَطَرَ» ثُمَّ اقْتَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنْفِقُونَ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {جَزَاءً بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ}  

“Going out in the morning in the cause of Allah, or in the evening, is more virtuous than the world and what is in it.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2755)   

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «غَدْوَةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَوْ رَوْحَةٌ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا»  

[Machine] And he said, "There was an old woman who used to cook salted meat on Fridays and sprinkle barley grains on it. So whenever we finished Friday prayer, we would enter and eat."  

وَقَالَ إِنَّ عَجُوزًا كَانَتْ تَطْبُخُ فِي يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ أُصُولَ السِّلْقِ وتَطْرَحُ عَلَيْهِ حَبَّاتٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ فَكُنَّا إِذَا انْصَرَفْنَا مِنَ الْجُمُعَةِ دَخَلْنَا فَأَكَلْنَا  

[Machine] Shall I not tell you a hadith I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? So I said, "Yes." He said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever is waiting in the mosque for prayer, he is in prayer.'"  

أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ كَانَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ يَنْتَظِرُ الصَّلَاةَ فَهُوَ فِي صَلَاةٍ»  

We had a siesta or lunch after the Friday prayer. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1086)   

«كُنَّا نَقِيلُ بَعْدَ الْجُمُعَةِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to us while we were reciting the Qur'an to each other. He said, "Praise be to Allah, there is one book among you, which is the red and the black. Recite the Qur'an, recite the Qur'an, recite it before there come people who establish it like an arrow, and they do not go beyond their limits, seeking its reward hastily and not delaying it."  

خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ يُقْرِئُ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا فَقَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كِتَابٌ وَاحِدٌ فِيكُمُ الْأَحْمَرُ وَالْأَسْوَدُ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ اقْرَأُوا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَقْوَامٌ يُقِيمُونَهُ كَمَا يُقَامُ السَّهْمُ وَلَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَتَعَجَّلُونَ أَجْرَهُ وَلَا يَتَأَجَّلُونَهُ»  

[Machine] "We used to have lunch and pray Friday prayers."  

«كُنَّا نَتَغَدَّى ونُصَلِّي الْجُمُعَةَ»  

[Machine] There was a disagreement between two men from the Ansar, so the Prophet ﷺ went to reconcile between them during prayer time. When it was time for prayer, Bilal came to Abu Bakr and said, "O Abu Bakr, the prayer has begun, and the Prophet ﷺ is not here. Should I call the adhan and lead the prayer?" Abu Bakr replied, "Do as you wish." So Bilal called the adhan and led the prayer, and Abu Bakr started the prayer. Then the Prophet ﷺ came and joined the congregation. After finishing the prayer, the Prophet ﷺ greeted the people, and Abu Bakr went to move away. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ motioned to him to stay in his place, and when Abu Bakr moved, the Prophet ﷺ moved forward and led the prayer. After completing the prayer, the Prophet ﷺ asked Abu Bakr, "O Abu Bakr, what prevented you from staying where I instructed you?" Abu Bakr replied, "It was not fitting for the son of Abu Quhafa to lead the prayer in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."  

كَانَ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ شَيْءٌ فَانْطَلَقَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِيُصْلِحَ بَيْنَهُمْ فِي وَقْتِ صَلَاةٍ فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ جَاءَ بِلَالٌ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ قَدْ حَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ وَلَيْسَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ هَهُنَا فَأُؤَذِّنُ وَأُقِيمُ وَتُصَلِّي أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ مَا شِئْتَ فَأَذَّنَ وَأَقَامَ وَاسْتَفْتَحَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصَّلَاةَ وَجَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عِنْدَ بَقِيَّةِ ذَلِكَ فَصَفَّحَ النَّاسُ فَذَهَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لِيَتَنَحَّى فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنِ اثْبُتْ مَكَانَكَ فَلَمَّا تَنَحَّى تَقَدَّمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَصَلَّى فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ «يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَثْبُتَ كَمَا أَمَرْتُكَ» قَالَ مَا كَانَ لِابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ أَمَامَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to stand on a wooden platform. When the number of people increased, they said, "O Messenger of Allah, the people have increased, so should we not make a pulpit for you to stand on? For surely, sometimes the person who comes late does not hear anything from you and leaves." So, he commanded a young boy from the Ansar and took pieces of wood from the outskirts of the forest and made this pulpit. When he sat on it, the wooden platform he used to stand on became soft and quiet.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ إِلَى خَشَبَةٍ فَلَمَّا كَثُرَ النَّاسُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ كَثُرُوا أَفَلَا نَتَّخِذُ لَكَ مِنْبَرًا تَقُومُ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّ الْجَائِي يَجِيءُ فَيَشْتَدُّ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْكَ شَيْئًا فَأَمَرَ غُلَامًا لِلْأَنْصَارِ فَأَخَذَ مِنْ طَرْفَاءِ الْغَابَةِ فَجَعَلَ لَهُ هَذَا الْمِنْبَرَ فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ حَنَّتِ الْخَشَبَةُ الَّتِي كَانَ يَقُومُ إِلَيْهَا فَجَاءَ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهَا حَتَّى سَكَتَتْ  

[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when a man came and said, "O Messenger of Allah, there has been an argument between the Banu Amr ibn Awf until they threw stones at each other." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "This used to happen among them in the past. Come with us to them." So, Ubayy ibn Ka'b and Suhail ibn Bayda'a stood up and went with him to reconcile between them. Then, the prayer time came and Bilal called the prayer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gestured to him to go slowly, so the people said to Abu Bakr, "Move forward." He said, "Do you see that?" They said, "Yes." So, he moved forward, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and started shaking hands with the people. Abu Bakr would not turn around during the prayer, but when he heard the people shaking hands, he turned around and saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He then stepped back, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ moved forward and led the prayer. After finishing, he said, "O Abu Bakr, what prevented you from staying in your place when I gestured to you?" He said, "It was not appropriate for Ibn Abi Quhafa to go ahead of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." Then, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Why did I see you shaking hands? Clapping is for men, and tasbih (saying subhan Allah) is for women in prayer."  

كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ وَقَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ كَلَامٌ حَتَّى تَرَامَوْا بِالْحِجَارَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «قَدِيمًا كَانَ ذَلِكَ بَيْنَهُمْ قُومُوا بِنَا إِلَيْهِمْ» فَقَامَ مَعَهُ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ وَسُهَيْلُ بْنُ بَيْضَاءَ فَأَصْلَحَ بَيْنَهُمْ وَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَأَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ فَرَاثَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَعْنِي أَبْطَأَ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ تَقَدَّمْ فَقَالَ تَرَوْنَ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَتَقَدَّمَ وَأَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يُصَفِّحُونَ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ لَا يَلْتَفِتُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَهُمْ يُصَفِّحُونَ الْتَفَتَ فَرَأَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَنَكَصَ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهِ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ مَكَانَكَ فَتَأَخَّرَ وَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ «يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَثْبُتَ فِي مَكَانِكَ حِينَ أَوْمَأْتُ إِلَيْكَ؟» قَالَ مَا كَانَ لِابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ أَمَامَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا لِي أَرَاكُمْ صَفَّحْتُمْ؟ مَنْ نَابَهُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ شَيْءٌ فَإِنَّ التَّسْبِيحَ لِلرِّجَالِ وَالتَّصْفِيقَ لِلنِّسَاءِ»  

[Machine] A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have dedicated myself to you and have observed fasting." The Prophet remained silent. Then, a man from the Ansar said, "O Messenger of Allah, if you have no need for her, then marry her to me." The Prophet asked him, "Do you have anything to offer in return?" The man replied, "No, by Allah." The Prophet then asked, "Have you memorized any portion of the Quran?" The man answered, "Yes." The Prophet said, "Then I have married her to you in exchange for what you know of the Quran."  

جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَقَدْ وَهَبَتُ نَفْسِي لَكَ فَصَمَتَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ فِيهَا حَاجَةٌ فَزَوِّجْنِيهَا فَقَالَ «أَلَكَ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ لَا وَاللهِ قَالَ «فَهَلْ تَقْرَأُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ شَيْئًا؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَقَدْ مَلَّكْتُكَهَا بِمَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Abdullah bin Amr, "How will you be if you remain among the people's scum, and their promises and trusts are mixed up, and they have become like this, and you are tangled in their affairs?" Allah and His Messenger know better, he said, "Do what you know and leave what you disapprove of. Be cautious of involving yourself in the religion of Allah and take care of your own self, and leave the common people."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو «كَيْفَ بِكَ إِذَا بَقِيتَ فِي حُثَالَةٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَقَدْ مُزِجَتْ عُهُودُهُمْ وَأَمَانَاتُهُمْ وَاخْتَلَفُوا فَصَارُوا هَكَذَا وَشَبَّكَ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ ؟» قَالَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ «اعْمَلْ بِمَا تَعْرِفُ وَدَعْ مَا تُنْكِرُ وَإِيَّاكَ وَالتَّلَوُّنَ فِي دِينِ اللهِ وَعَلَيْكَ بِخَاصَّةِ نَفْسِكَ وَدَعْ عَوَامَّهُمْ»  

[Machine] "Concerning a thing, it is in one form, and she is in one form, fearing that something from the Quran might be revealed in it."  

عَنِ الشَّيْءِ وَهُوَ وَهِيَ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ تَخَوُّفًا أَنْ يَنْزِلَ فِيهِ شَيْءٌ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ»  

[Machine] "I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the day of Uhud, his face was wounded and his tooth was broken and bleeding. Then Ali came to him with water in a container, and Fatimah washed the blood away from his face and burned a piece of matting and placed it on his wound."  

«رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ أُصِيبَ وَجْهُهُ وَأُصِيبَتْ رَبَاعِيَتُهُ وَهُشِّمَتْ بَيْضَتُهُ فَأَتَاهُ عَلِيٌّ ؓ بِمَاءٍ فِي مِجَنٍّ فَأَتَتْ فَاطِمَةُ ؓ فَغَسَلَتْ عَنْهُ الدَّمَ وَأَحْرَقَتْ قِطْعَةَ حَصِيرٍ فَجَعَلَتْهُ عَلَى جُرْحِهِ»  

[Machine] Adi ibn Hatim came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, my father used to maintain kinship, carry loads, and feed the hungry." He said, "Did he embrace Islam?" He said, "No." He said, "Your father used to love to be mentioned, so he is mentioned."  

أَنَّ عَدِيَّ بْنَ حَاتِمٍ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبِي كَانَ يَصِلُ الْقَرَابَةَ وَيَحْمِلُ الْكَلَّ وَيُطْعِمُ الطَّعَامَ قَالَ «هَلْ أَدْرَكَ الْإِسْلَامَ؟» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «إِنَّ أَبَاكَ كَانَ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يُذْكَرَ فَذُكِرَ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "I was sent and the Hour (Day of Judgment) are like these two." And he pointed with his two fingers.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «بُعِثْتُ أَنَا وَالسَّاعَةُ كَهَاتَيْنِ» وَأَشَارَ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was presented with a drink, and there were elders on his left and a young boy on his right, who was the youngest among the people. He said to the boy, "May I give the elders some of this drink?" The boy replied, "I would not prefer anyone over myself." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave it to him.  

أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِشَرَابٍ وَالْأَشْيَاخُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ وَغُلَامٌ هُوَ أَحْدَثُ الْقَوْمِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَقَالَ لِلْغُلَامِ «أَتَأْذَنُ لِي أَنْ أُعْطِيَ الْأَشْيَاخَ؟» قَالَ مَا كُنْتُ أُوثِرُ بِنَصِيبِي مِنْكَ أَحَدًا قَالَ فَأَعْطَاهُ  

[Machine] There were seven dinars with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he gave them to Aisha. When he fell ill, he said, "O Aisha, take the gold to Ali." Then he fainted, and Aisha was preoccupied with him until he repeated this several times. Each time, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fainted, and Aisha was preoccupied with him. So, she sent it to Ali. He gave it in charity and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ spent the night of Monday in the throes of death. Aisha sent her lamp with a woman from her household and said, "Give us from your lamp some clarified butter." For the Messenger of Allah ﷺ spent the night of Monday in the throes of death.  

كَانَتْ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ سَبْعَةُ دَنَانِيرَ وَضَعَهَا عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ عِنْدَ مَرَضِهِ قَالَ «يَا عَائِشَةُ اذْهَبِي بِالذَّهَبِ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ» ثُمَّ أُغْمِيَ عَلَيْهِ وَشَغَلَ عَائِشَةَ مَا بِهِ حَتَّى قَالَ ذَلِكَ مِرَارًا كُلَّ ذَلِكَ يُغْمَى عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ويَشْغَلُ عَائِشَةَ مَا بِهِ فَبَعَثَ بِهِ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ؓ فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا وَأَمْسَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْلَةَ الِاثْنَيْنِ فِي جَدِيدِ الْمَوْتِ فَأَرْسَلَتْ عَائِشَةُ بِمِصْباحٍ لَهَا إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ نِسَائِهَا فَقَالَتْ اهْدِي لَنَا فِي مِصْباحِنَا مِنْ عُكَكِ السَّمْنِ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمْسَى فِي جَدِيدِ الْمَوْتِ  

I would certainly give this standard to a person at whose hand Allah would grant victory and who loves Allah and His Messenger and Allah and His Messenger love him also. The people spent the night thinking as to whom it would be given. When it was morning the people hastened to Messenger of Allah ﷺ all of them hoping that that would be given to him. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Where is 'Ali b. Abu Talib? They said: Messenger of Allah, his eyes are sore. He then sent for him and he was brought and Messenger of Allah ﷺ applied saliva to his eyes and invoked blessings and he was all right, as if he had no ailment at all, and conferred upon him the standard. 'Ali said: Messenger of Allah, I will fight them until they are like us. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Advance cautiously until you reach their open places, thereafter invite them to Islam and inform them what is obligatory for them from the rights of Allah, for, by Allah, if Allah guides aright even one person through you that is better for you than to possess the most valuable of the camels. (Using translation from Muslim 2406)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ «لَأُعْطِيَنَّ الرَّايَةَ غَدًا رَجُلًا يَفْتَحُ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ» وَكَانَ النَّاسُ يَذْكُرُونَ أَيُّهُمْ يُعْطَاهَا فَقَالَ «أَيْنَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ؟» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ يَشْتَكِي عَيْنَهُ فَأَرْسَلُوا إِلَيْهِ فَأُتِيَ بِهِ فَبَصَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي عَيْنِهِ وَدَعَا لَهُ فَبَرَأَ حَتَّى كَأَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ بِهِ وَجَعٌ فَأَعْطَاهُ الرَّايَةَ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أُقَاتِلُهُمْ حَتَّى يَكُونُوا مِثْلَنَا؟ قَالَ «انْفُذْ عَلَى رِسْلِكَ حَتَّى تَنْزِلَ بِسَاحَتِهِمْ ثُمَّ ادْعُهُمْ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ وَأَخْبِرْهُمْ بِمَا يَجِبُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ حَقِّ اللهِ لَأَنْ يَهْدِيَ بِكَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ»  

People came to Sahl b. Sa'd al-Sa'idi, when they were doubtful about the kind of wood of the pulpit (in the mosque of the Prophet). They asked him about it. He said: By Allah, I know (the wood) of which it was made; I saw it the first day when it was placed there, and the first day when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat on it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for a woman whom Sahl named and asked her: Order your boy, the carpenter, to construct for me a wooden pulpit so that I sit on it when I deliver a speech to the people. So she ordered him and he made a pulpit of a wood called tarfa taken from al-Ghabah (a place at a distance of nine miles from Medina). He brought it to her. She sent it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He ordered and that was placed here. I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying on it: he said: "Allah is most great"; he then bowed while he was on it; then he returned and prostrated in the root of the pulpit; he then returned (to the pulpit). When he finished (the prayer), he addressed himself to the people and said: O people, I did this so that you may follow me and know my prayer. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1080)  

وَاللهِ إِنِّي أَعْرِفُ مَا هُوَ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ أَوَّلَ يَوْمٍ وُضِعَ وَأَوَّلَ يَوْمٍ جَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى فُلَانَةَ امْرَأَةٍ قَدْ سَمَّاهَا سَهْلٌ أَنْ مُرِي غُلَامَكِ النَّجَّارَ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ لِي أَعْوَادًا أَجْلِسُ عَلَيْهِنَّ فَأُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ» فَأَمَرَتْهُ فَعَمِلَهُ مِنْ طَرْفَاءِ الْغَابَةِ ثُمَّ جَاءَ بِهِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَرْسَلَتْ بِهِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَوُضِعَ هَهُنَا ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَكَبَّرَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ وَهُوَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ الْقَهْقَرَى فَسَجَدَ فِي أَصْلِ الْمِنْبَرِ ثُمَّ عَلَا فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَقَالَ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّمَا صَنَعْتُ هَذَا لِتَأْتَمُّوا بِي وَلِتَعْلَمُوا صَلَاتِي»  

[Machine] A woman came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have come to offer myself to you." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ looked at her, raised his gaze to her and straightened himself, then lowered his head. When the woman saw this, she realized that he did not have any interest in her, so she sat down. A man from his companions then stood up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, if you have no need for her, then marry her to me." He asked, "Do you have anything to offer as a dowry?" He replied, "No." The Prophet asked, "What do you have from the Quran?" He said, "I have knowledge of this Surah and that Surah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then I have married her to you in exchange for what you have from the Quran."  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ جِئْتُ لِأَهَبَ لَكَ نَفْسِي فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَعَّدَ النَّظَرَ إِلَيْهَا وَصَوَّبَهُ ثُمَّ طَأْطَأَ رَأْسَهُ فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ ذَلِكَ الْمَرْأَةُ لَمْ يَقْضِ فِيهَا شَيْئًا جَلَسَتْ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ أَيْ رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ فِيهَا حَاجَةٌ فَزَوِّجْنِيهَا قَالَ «أَلَكَ شَيْءٌ؟» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «فَمَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ؟» قَالَ سُورَةُ كَذَا وَسُورَةُ كَذَا قَالَ «فَقَدْ زَوَّجْتُكَهَا بِمَا مَعَكَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ»

[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, I have woven this with my own hands to clothe you." So the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , took it, needing it. He came out to us, and it was indeed his lower garment. A man from the people touched it and said, "O Messenger of Allah, clothe me with it." He said, "Yes." He sat as much as Allah willed in the gathering, then he returned it to him. The people said to him, "You have done well, you asked him for it even though you knew he does not refuse a requester." The man said, "By Allah, I only asked for it to be my shroud when I die." Sahla said, "And it became his shroud." Qutaybah said, "Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas was."  

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي نَسَجْتُ هَذِهِ بِيَدِي لِأَكْسُوَكَهَا فَأَخَذَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُحْتَاجًا إِلَيْهَا فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا وَإِنَّهَا لَإِزَارُهُ فَجَسَّهَا رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اكْسُنِيهَا؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» فَجَلَسَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَطَوَاهَا ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ بِهَا إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْقَوْمُ مَا أَحْسَنْتَ سَأَلْتَهُ إِيَّاهَا وَقَدْ عَرَفْتَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَرُدُّ سَائِلًا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ وَاللهِ مَا سَأَلْتُ إِلَّا لِتَكُونَ كَفَنِي يَوْمَ أَمُوتُ قَالَ سَهْلٌ «وَكَانَتْ كَفَنَهُ» قَالَ قُتَيْبَةُ كَانَ سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ

I asked Sahl bin Saʿd, "Did Messenger of Allah ﷺ ever eat white flour?" Sahl said, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ never saw white flour since Allah sent him as an Apostle till He took him unto Him."

Sahl said, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ never saw (used) a sieve since Allah sent him as an Apostle until He took him unto Him," I said, "How could you eat barley unsifted?" he said, "We used to grind it and then blow off its husk, and after the husk flew away, we used to prepare the dough (bake) and eat it." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5413)  

سَأَلْتُ سَهْلَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ فَقُلْتُ هَلْ أَكَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النِّقْيَ؟ فَقَالَ سَهْلٌ «مَا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النِّقْيَ مِنْ حِينَ ابْتَعَثَهُ اللهُ حَتَّى قَبَضَهُ اللهُ»

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the polytheists met and they fought. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ moved towards his army, the others also moved towards their respective armies. Among the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was a man who would not leave any of their movements or strange things without following it with a strike from his sword."  

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ الْتَقَى هُوَ وَالْمُشْرِكُونَ فَاقْتَتَلُوا فَلَمَّا مَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى عَسْكَرِهِ مَالَ الْآخَرُونَ إِلَى عَسْكَرِهِمْ وَفِي أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رَجُلٌ لَا يَدَعُ لَهُمْ فَاذَّةً وَلَا شَاذَّةً إِلَّا اتَّبَعَهَا بِضَرْبَةٍ مِنْ سَيْفِهِ» فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Indeed, in the lineage of certain men from my companions, there are men and women who will enter Paradise without being called to account." Then he recited, "{And others of them who have not yet joined them. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.}"  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ فِي أَصْلَابِ أَصْلَابِ أَصْلَابِ رِجَالٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِي رِجَالًا وَنِسَاءً يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ» ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {وَآخَرِينَ مِنْهُمْ لَمَّا يَلْحَقُوا بِهِمْ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ}

The young boy replied, "I would never prefer anyone over you, so go ahead and give it to them." So the Prophet ﷺ gave it to them, drank, and left the elders.  

أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِشَرَابٍ وَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ غُلَامٌ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ الْأَشْيَاخُ فَشَرِبَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلْغُلَامِ «أُعْطِي الْأَشْيَاخَ؟» فَقَالَ الْغُلَامُ مَا كُنْتُ لِأُوثِرَ بِسُؤْرِكَ أَوْ بِفَضْلِكَ عَلَيَّ أَحَدًا فَأَعْطَاهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَشَرِبَ وَتَرَكَ الْأَشْيَاخَ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: "The tasbih is for men and clapping is for women." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1210)   

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّمَا التَّصْفِيقُ لِلنِّسَاءِ وَالتَّسْبِيحُ لِلرِّجَالِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said to Fatimah, "Where is your husband?" She replied, "We had an argument and he left angrily." The Prophet ﷺ then asked a man, "Inform me about Ali." The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, he is in the mosque." The Prophet ﷺ went to him while the wind was blowing dust on him and said, "Get up, O Father of Dust." Sahil said, "By Allah, this is one of his beloved names."  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِفَاطِمَةَ «أَيْنَ بَعْلُكِ؟» فَقَالَتْ وَقَعَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ كَلَامٌ فَخَرَجَ مُغاضَبًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِرَجُلٍ «أَبْصِرْ لِي عَلِيًّا» فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هُوَ ذَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَأَتَاهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَالرِّيحُ يَسْفِي عَلَيْهِ التُّرَابَ قَالَ «قُمْ يَا أَبَا تُرَابٍ» قَالَ سَهْلٌ فَوَاللهِ إِنْ كَانَ لَأَحَبَّ أَسْمَائِهِ إِلَيْهِ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Whoever sits in the mosque waiting for prayer, he is in prayer."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ جَلَسَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ يَنْتَظِرُ الصَّلَاةَ فَهُوَ فِي صَلَاةٍ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not insult Tubba' for he has embraced Islam."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا تَسُبُّوا تُبَّعًا فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَسْلَمَ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet of Allah ﷺ who said, "When one of you prays towards a screen (sutrah), he should come close to it, for the Shaytan cannot pass between him and his prayer." This was narrated by Ibn Lahiah from Ubaidullah bin Abu Jafar from Safwan bin Sulaim from Nafi bin Jubair from Sahl bin Saad. And Ibn Uyaynah narrated it from Safwan bin Sulaim from Nafi bin Jubair from Sahl bin Abu Hathmah.  

عَنْ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى سُتْرَةٍ فَلْيَدْنُ مِنْهَا لَا يَجُوزُ الشَّيْطَانُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ صَلَاتِهِ» هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ وَرَوَاهُ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ صَفْوَانِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ  

"When anyone of you prays toward a Sutra, let him get close to it and not allow the Shaitan to sever his prayer for him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 748)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى سُتْرَةٍ فَلْيَدْنُ مِنْهَا لَا يَقْطَعِ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَيْهِ صَلَاتَهُ»  

[Machine] There was a man among the companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ named Aswad, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him Abu 'Abid.  

«كَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اسْمُهُ أَسْوَدُ فَسَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَبْيَضَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By the One who holds my life in His hand, you will definitely follow the traditions of those before you, step by step, to the extent of following them exactly as they follow them, even if they were to enter a lizard's hole, you would enter it too."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَتَرْكَبُنَّ سُنَنَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ حَذْوَ النَّعْلِ بِالنَّعْلِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, indeed you will follow the ways and practices of those before you, step by step, exactly as a shoe follows another shoe."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَتَرْكَبُنَّ سُنَنَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ حَذْوَ النَّعْلِ بِالنَّعْلِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, you will certainly follow the ways of those before you step by step, even if they were to enter a lizard's hole, you would follow them."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَتَرْكَبُنَّ سُنَنَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ حَذْوَ النَّعْلِ بِالنَّعْلِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his uncle Al-Abbas (may Allah have mercy on him), "I am the seal of the prophets." Then he raised his hands and said, "O Allah, forgive Al-Abbas and the children of Al-Abbas and the children of the children of Al-Abbas."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِعَمِّهِ الْعَبَّاسِ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ «أَنَا خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ» ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَهُ وَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِلْعَبَّاسِ وَأَبْنَاءِ الْعَبَّاسِ وَأَبْنَاءِ أَبْنَاءِ الْعَبَّاسِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to us while we were reading the Quran and reciting it to one another. He said, "Praise be to Allah, the Book of Allah is one, but the recitation styles differ among you. The black and the red (styles of recitation) should recite the Quran, recite the Quran, recite the Quran, before a people come who will recite it and establish its letters, similar to how an arrow is shot piercing through its target. They will rush to gain its reward and not delay it."  

خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ نَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَيُقْرِئُهُ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا فَقَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كِتَابُ اللهِ وَاحِدٌ فِيكُمُ الْأَسْوَدُ وَالْأَحْمَرُ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ اقْرَأُوا الْقُرْآنَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَقْوَامٌ يَقْرَأُونَ الْقُرْآنَ يُقِيمُونَ حُرُوفَهُ كَمَا يُقَامُ السَّهْمُ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَتَعَجَّلُونَ أَجْرَهُ وَلَا يَتَأَجَّلُونَهُ»
