[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to announce: "Do not throw stones in the jar."  

بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أُنَادِي «أَنْ لَا تَنْبِذُوا فِي الْجَرِّ»  

[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was resting in the mosque on a mat made of palm leaves. So I said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, I have come to seek knowledge." He said, "Welcome, seeker of knowledge. The seeker of knowledge is surrounded by angels and they shade him with their wings. Then some angels ride on top of others until they reach the lowest heaven due to their love for what he seeks. So what have you come to seek?" I said, "Safwan said, O Messenger of Allah, we continue to travel between Mecca and Medina, so guide us regarding wiping over the two socks." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Three days for the traveler and one day and one night for the resident."  

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ عَلَى بُرْدٍ لَهُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي جِئْتُ أَطْلُبُ الْعِلْمَ فَقَالَ «مَرْحَبًا بطالبِ الْعِلْمِ طَالِبُ الْعِلْمِ لَتَحُفُّهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَتُظِلُّهُ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا ثُمَّ يَرْكَبُ بَعْضُهُ بَعْضًا حَتَّى يَبْلُغُوا السَّمَاءَ الدُّنْيَا مِنْ حُبِّهِمْ لِمَا يَطْلُبُ فَمَا جِئْتَ تَطْلُبُ؟» قَالَ قَالَ صَفْوَانُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَا نَزَالُ نُسَافِرُ بَيْنَ مَكَّةَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ فَأَفْتِنَا عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ لِلْمُسَافِرِ وَيَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ لِلْمُقِيمِ»  

[Machine] While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was on a journey, a man came to him and said, "O Muhammad!" They said, "Lower your voice." He said, "O Messenger of Allah, the man loves the people but has not seen them." He said, "A person will be with those whom he loves." Then the man asked him about wiping over the two socks. He said, "Three days and nights for the traveler, and one day and night for the resident, without removing it except for sexual impurity." Then he asked him about repentance, and he said, "Repentance has a gate in the west, the distance of seventy or forty years, and it will remain like that until some of the signs of your Lord appear, such as the rising of the sun from its setting place."  

بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَالُوا اغْضُضْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ الرَّجُلُ يُحِبُّ الْقَوْمَ وَلَمْ يَرَهُمْ قَالَ «الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ» ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَ «ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ لِلْمُسَافِرِ وَيَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ لِلْمُقِيمِ لَا يَنْزِعُهُ مِنْ بَوْلٍ وَلَا نَوْمٍ وَلَا غَائِطٍ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ» ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ عَنِ التَّوْبَةِ فَقَالَ «لِلتَّوْبَةِ بَابٌ بِالْمَغْرِبِ مَسِيرَةُ سَبْعِينَ عَامًا أَوْ أَرْبَعِينَ عَامًا لَا يَزَالُ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ بَعْضُ آيَاتِ رَبِّكَ طُلُوعُ الشَّمْسِ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا»  

[Machine] Indeed, whatever He does, no one else can do except for Him. Whenever you make wudu, the angels spread their wings in approval of what you are doing. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have come to ask you about wiping over the socks." He said, "Indeed, I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ if I could wipe over the socks, and he said, 'Yes, there are three things for the traveler that should not be removed: urine, feces, and sleep. And for the resident, one day.'"  

أَمَا إِنَّهُ مَا يَصْنَعُ مَا صَنَعْتَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا وَضَعَتْ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًا بِالَّذِي يَصْنَعُ قُلْتُ إِنِّي غَدَوْتُ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ قَالَ إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَأَمْسَحُ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ ثَلَاثٌ لِلْمُسَافِرِ لَا يَنْزِعْهُمَا مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَلَا بَوْلٍ وَلَا نَوْمٍ وَيَوْمٌ لِلْمُقِيمِ»  

There lived a king before you and he had a (court) magician. As he (the magician) grew old, he said to the king: I have grown old, send some young boy to me so that I should teach him magic. He (the king) sent to him a young man so that he should train him (in magic). And on his way (to the magician) he (the young man) found a monk sitting there. He (the young man) listened to his (the monk's) talk and was impressed by it. It became his habit that on his way to the magician he met the monk and set there and he came to the magician (late). He (the magician) beat him because of delay. He made a complaint of that to the monk and he said to him: When you feel afraid of the magician, say: Members of my family had detained me. And when you feel afraid of your family you should say: The magician had detained me. It so happened that there came a huge beast (of prey) and it blocked the way of the people, and he (the young boy) said: I will come to know today whether the magician is superior or the monk is superior. He picked up a stone and said: O Allah, if the affair of the monk is dearer to Thee than the affair of the magician, cause death to this animal so that the people should be able to move about freely. He threw that stone towards it and killed it and the people began to move about (on the path freely). He (the young man) then came to that monk and Informed him and the monk said: Sonny, today you are superior to me. Your affair has come to a stage where I find that you would be soon put to a trial, and in case you are put to a trial don't give my clue. That young man began to treat the blind and those suffering from leprosy and he in fact began to cure people from (all kinds) of illness. When a companion of the king who had gone blind heard about him, he came to him with numerous gifts and said: If you cure me all these things collected together here would be yours. Be said: I myself do not cure anyone. It is Allah Who cures and if you affirm faith in Allah, I shall also supplicate Allah to cure you. He affirmed his faith in Allah and Allah cured him and he came to the king and sat by his side as he used to sit before. The king said to him: Who restored your eyesight? He said: My Lord. Thereupon he said: It means that your Lord is One besides me. He said: My Lord and your Lord is Allah, so he (the king) took hold of him and tormented him till he gave a clue of that boy. The young man was thus summoned and the king said to him: O boy, it has been conveyed to me that you have become so much proficient in your magic that you cure the blind and those suffering from leprosy and you do such and such things. Thereupon he said: I do not cure anyone; it is Allah Who cures, and he (the king) took hold of him and began to torment him. So he gave a clue of the monk. The monk was thus summoned and it was said to him: You should turn back from your religion. He, however, refused to do so. He (ordered) for a saw to be brought (and when it was done) he (the king) placed it in the middle of his head and tore it into parts till a part fell down. Then the courtier of the king was brought and it was said to him: Turn back from your religion. Arid he refused to do so, and the saw was placed in the midst of his head and it was torn till a part fell down. Then that young boy was brought and it was said to him: Turn back from your religion. He refused to do so and he was handed over to a group of his courtiers. And he 'said to them: Take him to such and such mountain; make him climb up that mountain and when you reach its top (ask him to renounce his faith) but if he refuses to do so, then throw him (down the mountain). So they took him and made him climb up the mountain and he said: O Allah, save me from them (in any way) Thou likest and the mountain began to quake and they all fell down and that person came walking to the king. The king said to him: What has happened to your companions? He said: Allah has saved me from them. He again handed him to some of his courtiers and said: Take him and carry him in a small boat and when you reach the middle of the ocean (ask him to renounce) his religion, but if he does not renounce his religion throw him (into the water). So they took him and he said: O Allah, save me from them and what they want to do. It was quite soon that the boat turned over and they were drowned and he came walking to the king, and the king said to him: What has happened to your companions? He said: Allah has saved me from them, and he said to the king: You cannot kill me until you do what I ask you to do. And he said: What is that? He said: You should gather people in a plain and hang me by the trunk (of a tree). Then take hold of an arrow from the quiver and say: In the name of Allah, the Lord of the young boy; then shoot an arrow and if you do that then you would be able to kill me. So he (the king) called the people in an open plain and tied him (the boy) to the trunk of a tree, then he took hold of an arrow from his quiver and then placed the arrow in the bow and then said: In the name of Allah, the Lord of the young boy; he then shot an arrow and it bit his temple. He (the boy) placed his hands upon the temple where the arrow had bit him and he died and the people said: We affirm our faith in the Lord of this young man, we affirm our faith in the Lord of this young man, we affirm our faith in the Lord of this young man. The courtiers came to the king and it was said to him: Do you see that Allah has actually done what you aimed at averting. They (the people) have affirmed their faith in the Lord. He (the king) commanded ditches to be dug at important points in the path. When these ditches were dug, and the fire was lit in them it was said (to the people): He who would not turn back from his (boy's) religion would be thrown in the fire or it would be said to them to jump in that. (The people courted death but did not renounce religion) till a woman came with her child and she felt hesitant in jumping into the fire and the child said to her: 0 mother, endure (this ordeal) for it is the Truth. (Using translation from Muslim 3005)

[Machine] I cooked food for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then I went to him while he was sitting with a group. I stood in front of him and he motioned to me, so I motioned back to him. He asked, "And these people?" I replied, "No." So he remained silent. I returned to my place, and when he looked at me, I motioned to him again. He asked, "And these people?" Again, I replied, "No." He did this two or three times, and then I said, "Yes, these people." And it was only a small amount that I made for him. He came and they came with him, and they ate, and I consider it a favor from him.  

صَنَعْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ طَعَامًا فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ فِي نَفَرٍ جَالِسٌ فَقُمْتُ حِيَالَهُ فَأَوْمَأَتُ إِلَيْهِ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيَّ «وَهَؤُلَاءِ؟» فَقُلْتُ لَا فَسَكَتُّ فَقُمْتُ مَكَانِيَ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ أَوْمَأْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ «وَهَؤُلَاءِ؟» فَقُلْتُ لَا مَرَّتَيْنِ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ وَهَؤُلَاءِ وَإِنَّمَا كَانَ شَيْئًا يَسِيرًا صَنَعْتُهُ لَهُ فَجَاءَ وجَاءُوا مَعَهُ فَأَكَلُوا وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ وَفَضَلَ مِنْهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The virtue of a man's prayer in his house over his prayer where people can see it is like the virtue of the obligatory prayer over the optional prayer."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَضْلُ صَلَاةِ الرَّجُلِ فِي بَيْتِهِ عَلَى صَلَاتِهِ حَيْثُ يَرَاهُ النَّاسُ كَفَضْلِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ عَلَى النَّافِلَةِ»  

[Machine] "And by Allah, I do not know which of the two calamities is greater, the death of my father or the killing of Uthman?"  

«وَاللهِ مَا أَدْرِي أَيُّ الْمُصِيبَتَيْنِ أَعْظَمُ مَوْتُ أَبِي أَمْ قَتْلُ عُثْمَانَ؟»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Whom did you come to see, Abu Wahb?" He replied, "I came to see Abbas ibn Abdul Muttalib." He said, "I have come to visit the Quraish, who is the most beloved of them."  

لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «عَلَى مَنْ نَزَلْتَ أَبَا وَهْبٍ؟» قَالَ نَزَلَتُ عَلَى عَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ قَالَ «نَزَلْتَ عَلَى أَشَدِّ قُرَشِيٍّ لِقُرَيْشٍ حُبًّا»  

[Machine] It was said to Safwan, "Indeed, whoever does not migrate has perished." So he called for his camel and mounted it, and he came to Medina. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him, "What brings you, O Abu Wahb?" He said, "I have been informed that those who do not migrate have no faith." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Go back to the outskirts of Makkah." So he returned and entered the mosque. He laid down his garment and a man came and stole it. The man brought the garment to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, this man has stolen my garment." The Prophet ﷺ ordered it to be cut, and the man said, "O Messenger of Allah, my garment has not yet reached the point where it is cut off by a man's hand. I had made it as charity for him." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Why didn't you accept it before bringing it to me?"  

قِيلَ لِصَفْوَانَ إِنَّهُ مَنْ لَمْ يُهَاجِرْ فَقَدْ هَلَكَ فَدَعَا بِرَاحِلَتِهِ فَرَكِبَهَا فَأَتَى الْمَدِينَةَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا جَاءَ بِكَ يَا أَبَا وَهْبٍ؟» قَالَ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّهُ لَا دِينَ لِمَنْ لَا هِجْرَةَ لَهُ قَالَ ارْجِعْ إِلَى أَبَاطِحِ مَكَّةَ فَرَجَعَ فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَتَوَسَّدَ رِدَاءَهُ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَسَرَقَ فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ سَرَقَ هَذَا رِدَائِي فَأَمَرَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَطَعَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ رِدَائِي مَا يُقْطَعُ فِيهِ يَدُ رَجُلٍ قَدْ جَعَلْتُهَا صَدَقَةً عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَهَلَّا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ؟»  

[Machine] That Sufyan ibn Umayyah came to the city and slept in the mosque, and he placed his garment under his head. Then a thief came and stole it. So he was brought to the Prophet ﷺ, and he ordered that his hand be cut off. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, it belongs to him." He said, "Why didn't you bring it to me before?"  

أَنَّ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَنَامَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَوَضَعَ خَمِيصَةً لَهُ تَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ فَأَتَاهُ سَارِقٌ فَسَرَقَهَا فَجِيءَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ أَنْ يُقْطَعَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هِيَ لَهُ قَالَ «فَهَلَّا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ؟»  

Safwan ibn Umayyah was sleeping in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and there was a garment under his head. A man came and took it from under his head while he was sleeping. Safwan woke up and followed him, and brought him to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned the matter to him. The Prophet ﷺ ordered that the man be punished. Safwan said to the Prophet ﷺ , "I had not reached the point of wanting it to be severed." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Why didn't you come to me before bringing him?"  

كَانَ صَفْوَانُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ نَائِمًا فِي مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَتَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ خَمِيصَةٌ لَهُ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَاسْتَلَّهَا مِنْ تَحْتِ رَأْسِهِ وَهُوَ نَائِمٌ فَلَحِقَهُ فَجَاءَ بِهِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ لَهُ أَمْرَهُ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ أَنْ يُقْطَعَ فَقَالَ لَهُ صَفْوَانُ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ مِنْ أَمْرِ رِدَائِي هَذَا أَنْ يُقْطَعَ فِيهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «هَلَّا كَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ؟»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ who said, "The plague is a martyrdom (witness), the stomach is a martyrdom (witness), and the miscarriage is a martyrdom (witness)."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «الطَّاعُونُ شَهَادَةٌ وَالْبَطْنُ شَهَادَةٌ وَالنُّفَسَاءُ شَهَادَةٌ»  

[Machine] Safwan ibn Umayyah narrated that he raised it to the Prophet ﷺ saying, "The plague, leprosy, and drowning are a martyrdom."  

عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «الطَّاعُونُ وَالنُّفَسَاءُ وَالْغَرَقُ شَهَادَةٌ»  

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet, ﷺ , he said, "Plague, drowning, burning, and suffocation are martyrdom for my Ummah."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ «الطَّاعُونُ وَالْغَرَقُ وَالْحَرَقُ وَالنُّفَسَاءُ شَهَادَةٌ لِأُمَّتِي»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Eat meat, as it is the tastiest, easiest, and most wholesome (form of food)."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «انْتَهِشُوا اللَّحْمَ فَإِنَّهُ أَشْهَى وَأَهْنَأُ وَأَمْرَأُ»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "He is more delicious and easier and more lenient."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «هُوَ أَشْهَى وَأَمْرَأُ وَأَهْنَأُ وَأَمْرَأُ»  

[Machine] Safwan ibn Umayyah saw me in the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while I was cutting meat off the bone. He said, "O Safwan!" and I replied, "Here I am." He said, "Bring the meat closer to you, for it is more tasty and enjoyable."  

صَفْوَانُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ رَآنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أَجُزُّ اللَّحْمَ عَنِ الْعَظْمِ فَقَالَ «يَا صَفْوَانُ» قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ قَالَ «قَرِّبِ اللَّحْمَ مِنْ فِيكَ فَإِنَّهُ أَهْنَأُ وَأَمْرَأُ»  

[Machine] A thief came to him while he was sleeping and took his garment from under him. When he woke up and realized, he took him to the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ ordered that his hand be cut off. The thief said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have repented." He said, "Shouldn't you have repented before coming to me? Verily, when the ruler decides upon a punishment, he establishes it."  

أَنَّ لِصًّا أَتَاهُ وَهُوَ نَائِمٌ فَاسْتَلَّ إِزَارَهُ مِنْ تَحْتِهِ فَاسْتَيْقَظَ فَأَخَذَهُ فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَقُطِعَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ أَحْلَلْتُهُ قَالَ «هَلَّا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ إِنَّ الْإِمَامَ إِذَا انْتَهَى إِلَيْهِ حَدٌّ مِنَ الْحُدُودِ أَقَامَهُ»  

I was sleeping in the mosque on a cloak mine whose price was thirty dirhams. A man came and pinched it away from me. The man was seized and brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He ordered that his hand should be cut off. I came to him and said: Do you cut off only for thirty dirhams ? I sell it to him and make the payment of its price a loan ? He said: Why did you not do so before bringing him to me ? Abu Dawud said: Za'idah has also transmitted it from Simak from Ju'ayd ibn Hujayr. He said: Safwan slept. Mujahid and Tawus said: While he was sleeping a thief came and stole the cloak from beneath his head. The version of AbuSalamah ibn AbdurRahman has: He snatched it away from beneath his head and he awoke. He cried and he (the thief) was seized. Az-Zuhri narrated from Safwan ibn Abdullah. His version has: He slept in the mosque and used his cloak as pillow. A thief came and took his cloak. The thief was seized and brought to the Prophet ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4394)   

كُنْتُ نَائِمًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ عَلَى خَمِيصَةٍ لِي ثَمَنُ ثَلَاثِينَ دِرْهَمًا فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَيَّ فَاخْتَلَسَهَا مِنِّي فَأُخِذَ الرَّجُلُ فَأُتِيَ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ لِيُقْطَعَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَتَقْطَعُهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ ثَلَاثِينَ دِرْهَمًا؟ هِي لَهُ قَالَ «فَهَلَّا كَانَ هَذَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ؟»  

[Machine] There was a thief who came to his father while he was sleeping and took his garment from under his head. The father woke up and took him to the Prophet ﷺ . The Prophet ﷺ ordered that his hand be cut. The thief said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have made him permissible for me." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Why didn't you ask for permission before coming to me? Verily, when the Imam is given a punishment for crossing the limits set by Allah, he establishes it."  

أَنَّ لِصًّا أَتَى أَبَاهُ وَهُوَ نَائِمٌ فَاسْتَلَّ إِزَارَهُ مِنْ تَحْتِ رَأْسِهِ فَاسْتَيْقَظَ فَأَخَذَهُ فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ أَنْ يُقْطَعَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ أَحْلَلْتُهُ لَهُ قَالَ «فَهَلَّا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ إِنَّ الْإِمَامَ إِذَا انْتَهَى إِلَيْهِ حَدٌّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللهِ أَقَامَهُ»  

a man stole a Burdah of his, so he brought him before the Messenger of Allah, who ordered that his hand be cut off. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I will let him have it." He said: "Abu Wahb! Why didn't you do that before you brought him to us?" And the Messenger of Allah had (the man's) hand cut off. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4878)   

أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَرَقَ بُرْدَةً فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ تَجَاوَزْتُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ «فَلَوْلَا كَانَ هَذَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ يَا أَبَا وَهْبٍ» فَقَطَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ  

[Machine] "I fell asleep in the mosque and someone took my lower garment from underneath me. I caught the person and brought them to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He ordered for the person's hand to be cut off. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, it belongs to them.' He said, 'Then why didn't you bring them to me before?'"  

نِمْتُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَاسْتُلَّ إِزَارِي مِنْ تَحْتِي فَأَدْرَكْتُهُ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ أَنْ تُقْطَعَ يَدَهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هِي لَهُ قَالَ «فَهَلَّا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ borrowed iron armor from me on the day of Hunayn, so I said, "Is it guaranteed, O Muhammad?" He said, "Yes, it is guaranteed." Then some of it got lost, so the Prophet ﷺ said to me, "If you wish, we will compensate you for it." I said, "No, I do not desire compensation in exchange for embracing Islam."  

اسْتَعَارَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنِّي أَدْرَاعًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ فَقُلْتُ مَضْمُونَةٌ يَا مُحَمَّدُ؟ قَالَ «مَضْمُونَةٌ» قَالَ فَضَاعَ بَعْضُهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «إِنْ شِئْتَ غَرِمْنَاهَا لَكَ؟» قَالَ لَا أَنَا أَرْغَبُ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ  

"The Messenger of Allah gave to me on the Day of Hunain, and he was the most hated creature to me. But he did not stop giving to me until he was the most loved creature to me." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 666)   

«أَعْطَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ وَإِنَّهُ لَأَبْغَضُ النَّاسِ إِلَيَّ فَمَا زَالَ يُعْطِينِي حَتَّى إِنَّهُ لَأَحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَيَّ»  

[Machine] It was said to me, "The one who does not migrate will perish." So, I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. He said, "Go back, Abu Wahb, to Abu Tahir in Makkah."  

أَنْ قِيلَ لِي هَلَكَ مَنْ لَمْ يُهَاجِرْ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ «ارْجِعْ أَبَا وَهْبٍ إِلَى أَبَاطِحِ مَكَّةَ»  

“We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Amr bin Murrah came and said: 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Allah (SWT) has decreed that I be doomed, and He has not guided me to earn a living except by beating my tambourine with my hand; give me permission to sing without doing anything immoral.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'I will not give you permission, or honor you nor give you, what you want. You are lying, O enemy of Allah. Allah (SWT) has granted you a good, lawful provision, but you have chosen the provision that Allah (SWT) has forbidden to you instead of that which He has permitted. If I had warned you before, I would have done such and such to you. Get away from me and repent to Allah (SWT). If you do that again, after this warning, I will give you a painful beating and shave your head, to make an example of you, and I will banish you from among your people, and tell the young men of Al-Madinah to come and take your goods,'Amr stood up, suffering grief and humiliation that is known only to Allah (SWT). When he went away, the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Those sinners, whoever among them dies without having repented, Allah (SWT) will gather him on the Day of Resurrection just as he was in this world, effeminate and naked, with not even a piece of cloth to conceal him from the people. Every time he gets up, he will fall to the ground.'” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2613)   

كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَاءَهُ عَمْرُو بْنُ قُرَّةَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ كُتِبَتْ عَلَيَّ الشِّقْوَةُ فَلَا أُرَانِي أُرْزَقُ إِلَّا مِنْ دُفِّي بِكَفِّي فَتَأْذَنُ لِي فِي الْغِنَاءِ مِنْ غَيْرِ فَاحِشَةٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا آذَنُ لَكَ وَلَا كَرَامَةَ كَذَبْتَ يَا عَدُوَّ اللهِ لَقَدْ رَزَقَكَ اللهُ حَلَالًا طَيِّبًا فَاخْتَرْتَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللهُ مِنْ رِزْقِهِ مَكَانَ مَا أَحَلَّ اللهُ مِنْ حَلَالِهِ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ تَقَدَّمْتُ إِلَيْكَ لَفَعَلْتُ بِكَ قُمْ عَنِّي وَتُبْ إِلَى اللهِ أَمَا إِنَّكَ إِنْ نِلْتَ بَعْدَ التَّقْدِمَةِ شَيْئًا ضَرَبْتُكَ ضَرْبًا وَجِيعًا وَحَلَقْتُ رَأْسَكَ مُثْلَةً وَنَفَيْتُكَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ وَأَحْلَلْتُ سَلَبَكَ نُهْبَةً لِفِتْيَانِ الْمَدِينَةِ» فَقَامَ عَمْرٌو وَبِهِ مِنَ الشَّرِّ وَالْخِزْيِ مَا لَا يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا اللهُ فَلَمَّا وَلَّى قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَؤُلَاءِ الْعُصَاةُ مَنْ مَاتَ مِنْهُمْ بِغَيْرِ تَوْبَةٍ حَشَرَهُ اللهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَمَا كَانَ مُخَنَّثًا عُرْيَانًا لَا يَسْتَتِرُ مِنَ النَّاسِ بِهُدْبَةٍ كُلَّمَا قَامَ صُرِعَ»

كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَاءَهُ عَمْرُو بْنُ قُرَّةَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ كُتِبَتْ عَلَيَّ الشِّقْوَةُ فَلَا أُرَانِي أُرْزَقُ إِلَّا مِنْ دُفِّي بِكَفِّي فَتَأْذَنُ لِي فِي الْغِنَاءِ مِنْ غَيْرِ فَاحِشَةٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا آذَنُ لَكَ وَلَا كَرَامَةَ كَذَبْتَ يَا عَدُوَّ اللهِ لَقَدْ رَزَقَكَ اللهُ حَلَالًا طَيِّبًا فَاخْتَرْتَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللهُ مِنْ رِزْقِهِ مَكَانَ مَا أَحَلَّ اللهُ مِنْ حَلَالِهِ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ تَقَدَّمْتُ إِلَيْكَ لَفَعَلْتُ بِكَ قُمْ عَنِّي وَتُبْ إِلَى اللهِ أَمَا إِنَّكَ إِنْ نِلْتَ بَعْدَ التَّقْدِمَةِ شَيْئًا ضَرَبْتُكَ ضَرْبًا وَجِيعًا وَحَلَقْتُ رَأْسَكَ مُثْلَةً وَنَفَيْتُكَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ وَأَحْلَلْتُ سَلَبَكَ نُهْبَةً لِفِتْيَانِ الْمَدِينَةِ» فَقَامَ عَمْرٌو وَبِهِ مِنَ الشَّرِّ وَالْخِزْيِ مَا لَا يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا اللهُ فَلَمَّا وَلَّى قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَؤُلَاءِ الْعُصَاةُ مَنْ مَاتَ مِنْهُمْ بِغَيْرِ تَوْبَةٍ حَشَرَهُ اللهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَمَا كَانَ مُخَنَّثًا عُرْيَانًا لَا يَسْتَتِرُ مِنَ النَّاسِ بِهُدْبَةٍ كُلَّمَا قَامَ صُرِعَ»  

[Machine] "I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during one of his travels, so he performed the evening prayer and then went to sleep until the middle of the night. He then woke up and recited these verses from the end of Surah Al-Imran until the end of the Surah. Then he performed ablution, washed his face and hands, and then prayed two units of prayer, of which I do not know whether his standing, bowing, or prostration were longer. Then he said, 'Then he woke up and recited the verses again, then performed ablution and washed his face and hands. Then he did the same as before, and then he prayed what he had prayed before, like in the beginning. He continued to pray two units of prayer, two units of prayer, and sleep, then wake up as he did in the first time, until he prayed eleven units of prayer."  

«رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ فَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ ثُمَّ نَامَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ مَعَ انْتِصَافِ اللَّيْلِ قَامَ فَتَلَا هَؤُلَاءِ الْآيَاتِ مِنْ آخِرِ سُورَةِ آلِ عِمْرَانَ حَتَّى خَتَمَ السُّورَةَ ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وَتَسَوَّكَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ لَا أَدْرِي أَقِيَامُهُ أَوْ رُكُوعُهُ أَوْ سُجُودُهُ أَطْوَلُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَقَرَأَ الْآيَاتِ أَيْضًا ثُمَّ تَسَوَّكَ وَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى مَا صَلَّى مِثْلَ الْأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَزَلْ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يَنَامُ ثُمَّ يَسْتَيْقِظُ كَمَا فَعَلَ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُولَى حَتَّى صَلَّى إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً»  

[Machine] The Prophet, ﷺ , said, "Verily, when the sun rises, the devil withdraws from it. And when it spreads out, he separates from it. And when it approaches its zenith, he approaches it. And when it declines, he separates from it. And when it approaches sunset, he approaches it. And when it sets, he separates from it." He forbade performing prayer during those hours.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ إِذَا طَلَعَتْ قَارَنَهَا الشَّيْطَانُ إِذَا انْبَسَطَتْ فَارَقَهَا فَإِذَا دَنَتْ لِلزَّوَالِ قَارَنَهَا وَإِذَا زَالَتْ فَارَقَهَا وَإِذَا دَنَتْ لِلْمَغِيبِ قَارَنَهَا وَإِذَا غَرَبَتْ فَارَقَهَا» فَنَهَى عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَاتِ  

[Machine] We went out as pilgrims, and when we were at al-'Arj, we saw a snake in turmoil. It did not take long before it died, so one of us took a piece of his garment, wrapped it around the snake, and placed it on the ground. Then we proceeded to Makkah, and while we were at the Sacred Mosque, a man approached us and asked, "Who among you is the companion of 'Amr ibn Jabir?" We replied that we did not know him. He then asked, "Who among you is the companion of the jinn?" We said, "This is he." He said, "Indeed, he was one of the last nine believers who came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to listen to the Qur'an."  

خَرَجْنَا حُجَّاجًا فَلَمَّا كُنَّا بِالْعَرْجِ إِذَا نَحْنُ بِحَيَّةٍ تَضْطَرِبُ فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ أَنْ مَاتَتْ فَأَخْرَجَ لَهَا رَجُلٌ مِنَّا خِرْقَةً مِنْ عُبَيَّةٍ لَهُ فَلَفَّهَا وَخَدَّ لَهَا فِي الْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ قَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ فَإِنَّا لَبِالْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ إِذْ وَقَفَ عَلَيْنَا شَخَصٌ فَقَالَ أَيُّكُمْ صَاحِبُ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَابِرٍ؟ فَقُلْنَا مَا نَعْرِفُهُ قَالَ أَيُّكُمْ صَاحِبُ الْجَانِّ؟ قَالُوا هَذَا قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ كَانَ آخِرَ التِّسْعَةِ مُؤْمِنًا الَّذِينَ أَتَوْا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتَمِعُونَ الْقُرْآنَ  

[Machine] "He (referring to the person mentioned earlier) approached Safwan bin Assal Al-Muradi, one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ , and he asked them, 'What is your need?' They replied, 'We have left our homes in search of knowledge.' He said, 'Indeed, whoever leaves their home in search of knowledge, the angels spread their wings for the seeker and the scholar.' I asked him about wiping over socks, and he replied, 'Yes, the Prophet ﷺ was asked about it, and he allowed a traveler to wipe over their socks for three days and nights, and for a resident, one day and night, except for when they are in a state of sexual impurity, but it includes urination, defecation, and sleep.'"  

أَنَّهُ أَتَى صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيَّ وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ يُسْأَلُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ حَاجَتُكُمْ؟ قَالُوا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ يَوْمِنَا ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ قَالَ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ يَخْرُجْ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِلْمُتَعَلِّمِ وَالْعَالِمِ وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَجَعَلَ لِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَبَوْلٍ وَنَوْمٍ»  

'When we were traveling, Messenger of Allah would order us not to remove our Khuff for three days and nights, except for Janabah, but not for defecating, urinating, and sleep." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 96)   

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا فِي السَّفَرِ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ نَوْمٍ وغائطٍ وَبَوْلٍ»  

[Machine] "What brings you?" I said, "I have come seeking knowledge." He said, "Indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whenever a person goes out of his house in search of knowledge, the angels lower their wings in approval of what he is doing.'" I said, "I have come to ask you about wiping over the socks." He said, "Yes, I was in the army that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent, and he commanded us to wipe over our socks when they are pure, three times when we are traveling, and one night when we are staying. We do not remove them except from sexual impurity." He said, "And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Indeed, for Maghrib (sunset) there is an open door for repentance, the distance of seventy years, which is not closed until the sun rises from its setting.'"  

مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ قُلْتُ جِئْتُ ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ قَالَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ خَارِجٍ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ فِي طَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ إِلَّا وَضَعَتْ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًا بِمَا يَصْنَعُ» قُلْتُ جِئْتُ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ قَالَ نَعَمْ كُنْتُ فِي الْجَيْشِ الَّذِي بَعَثَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَأَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَمْسَحَ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ إِذَا نَحْنُ أَدْخَلْنَاهُمَا عَلَى طَهُورٍ ثَلَاثًا إِذَا سَافَرْنَا وَلَيْلَةً إِذَا أَقَمْنَا وَلَا نَخْلَعُهُمَا مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَلَا بَوْلٍ وَلَا نَوْمٍ وَلَا نَخْلَعُهُمَا إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ» قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ لِلْمَغْرِبِ بَابًا مَفْتُوحًا لِلتَّوْبَةِ مَسِيرَةُ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً لَا يُغْلَقُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا»  

“I came to Safwan bin ʿAssal Al Muradi to ask him about wiping over the Khuff, so he said: ‘What has brought you, O Zirr?’ So I said: ‘The desire for knowledge.’ So he said: ‘Indeed, the angels lower their wings for the seeker of knowledge, out of pleasure with what he is seeking.’ So I said: ‘Indeed there is some doubt in my chest concerning wiping over the Khuff after defecation and urination, and you were a man from the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, so I came to you to ask you: Have you heard him ﷺ mention anything concerning that?’ He said: ‘Yes, he ﷺ used to order us, that when we were travelers’ - or - ‘in travel, to not remove our Khuff for three days and nights except, from sexual impurity, but not from defecation, urination, and sleep.’” He said: “Have you heard him ﷺ mention anything concerning love?” He said: “Yes. We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey when a Bedouin with a loud voice called upon him (saying): ‘O Muhammad!’ So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ responded to him with a voice similar to him (saying): ‘Come.’ So we said to him: ‘Lower your voice for you are with the Prophet ﷺ, and you have been prohibited from this.’ He said: ‘By Allah, I will not lower (my voice).’ The Bedouin said: ‘A man loves a people but he is not with them (in terms of deeds)?’ He ﷺ said: ‘A man is with whomever he loves on the Day of Judgement.’” So he did not cease talking with us, until he mentioned a gate in the direction of the west with the width of seventy years journey - or a rider would travel its width - for forty or seventy years.” Sufyan (one of the narrators) said: “In the direction of Ash-Sham, Allah created it the Day He created the heavens and the earth, open - that is, for repentance. It shall not be locked until the sun rises through it.” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3535)   

مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ قُلْتُ ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ قَالَ فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًا بِمَا يَطْلُبُ قَالَ قُلْتُ حَكَّ فِي صَدْرِي مَسَحَ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ بَعْدَ الْغَائِطِ وَالْبَوْلِ وَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَتَيْتُكَ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ هَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْهُ فِي ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ «كَانَ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ كُنَّا مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَبَوْلٍ وَنَوْمٍ» قُلْتُ أَسَمِعْتَهُ يَذْكُرُ الْهَوَى؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ بَيْنَا نَحْنُ مَعَهُ فِي مَسِيرٍ إِذْ نَادَاهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ بِصَوْتٍ جَهْوَرِيٍّ أَوْ قَالَ جَوْهَرِيٍّ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ شَكَّ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَأَجَابَهُ بِنَحْوٍ مِنْ كَلَامِهِ فَقَالَ «مَهْ» قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا وَلَمْ يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ؟ قَالَ «هُوَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ» قَالَ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يُحَدِّثُنَا حَتَّى قَالَ «إِنَّ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَغْرِبِ بَابًا مَسِيرَةُ عَرْضِهِ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً فَتَحَهُ اللهُ لِلتَّوْبَةِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَلَا يُغْلِقُهُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ نَحْوِهِ»  

[Machine] "When we used to travel with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ he instructed us not to remove our shoes for three nights and days, except for sexual impurity. As for impurity caused by feces or urine, it is not allowed."  

«كُنَّا إِذَا سَافَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ وَأَيَّامَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَأَمَّا مِنْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ فَلَا»  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ commanded that wiping over the two socks should be for three days and nights for the traveler, and for the resident it should be for one day and one night."  

«جَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ»  

'When we were traveling, Messenger of Allah would order us not to remove our Khuff for three days and nights, except for Janabah, but not for defecating, urinating, and sleep." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 96)   

«كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُوصِينَا إِذَا سَافَرْنَا أَوْ كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ بَوْلٍ وَنَوْمٍ وغائطٍ»  

[Machine] "Yes, the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , commanded us that when we are on a journey or traveling, we should not remove or take off our socks for three days and nights, even for relieving oneself, urinating, or sleeping, except for sexual impurity. And indeed, a man from the people of the desert came to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and started calling him loudly with a strong voice, saying, 'O Muhammad! O Muhammad!' So we said to him, 'Woe to you, lower your voice or lower it in volume, for you have been prohibited from doing this.' He said, 'No, by Allah, until he hears me.' So the Prophet, ﷺ , said, 'Leave him.' Then he said, 'What do you think about a man who loves a people but does not join them?' He said, 'A person is with the one whom he loves.'"  

نَعَمْ «أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ أَوْ نَخْلَعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَلَا بَوْلٍ وَلَا نَوْمٍ إِلَّا الْجَنَابَةَ» وَإِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يُنَادِيهِ بِصَوْتٍ لَهُ جَهْوَرِيٌّ أَيَا مُحَمَّدُ أَيَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ وَيْحَكَ اخْفِضْ أَوِ اغْضُضْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَ فَإِنَّكَ قَدْ نُهِيتَ مِنْ هَذَا قَالَ لَا وَاللهِ حَتَّى أَسْمَعَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَاؤُمُ» قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا وَلَمْ يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ؟ قَالَ «ذَلِكَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ»  

[Machine] What brought you here?" I said, "To seek knowledge." He said, "Shall I not give you glad tidings?" I said, "Of course." So he raised the hadith and said, "Verily, the angels lower their wings for the seeker of knowledge, pleased with what he seeks." Then he asked him about wiping over the footwear, so he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'The traveler wipes over his footwear for three days and nights from urine, feces, or sleep, but not from sexual impurity.' Then he began to inform us, and he said, 'While we were with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, on a journey when a Bedouin called out to him with a loud voice, saying, 'O Muhammad, O Muhammad, O Muhammad!' So I said to him, 'Lower your voice, for you have been commanded not to raise your voice.' So the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, responded to him according to what he had heard from him, saying, 'Here I am.' Then he asked him about love for a people when he is encompassed by them, so the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, 'A person is with those whom he loves.' Then he began to inform us, and he said, 'The gate of repentance is open from the west, its width is the travel of seventy years, and it will not be closed until the sun rises from its direction.' Then he recited this verse, 'Do they await except that the angels should come to them?'"

“I came to Safwan bin ʿAssal Al-Muradi so he said to me: ‘What has brought you, O Zirr?’ So I said: ‘The desire for knowledge.’ So he said: ‘It has been conveyed to me that the angels lower their wings for the seeker of knowledge, out of pleasure with what he is doing.’” He said: “So I said to him: ‘Indeed there is something wavering’ - or - ‘some doubt in my chest concerning wiping over the Khuff after defecation. So have you retained anything from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ concerning that?’ He said: ‘Yes, when we were travelers, he ﷺ used to order us not to remove our Khuff for three days and nights, except from sexual impurity, but not from defecation, urination, and sleep.’” He said: “So I said: ‘So have you memorized anything from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ concerning love?’ He said: ‘Yes, we were in one of our journeys with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when a man, a harsh, foolish Bedouin, who had been at the end of the group, called him with a loud voice, saying: “O Muhammad! O Muhammad!” So the people said to him “Mah! Indeed, you have been prohibited from this.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ responded to him with similar to his voice: “Come.” So he said: “A man loves a people but he has not reached them?” He said: ‘So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “A man is with whomever he loves.”’ Zirr said: “He did not cease reporting to me until he had reported that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has appointed a gate in the west - its width is the distance of a seventy-year journey - for repentance: it shall not be locked until the sun rises from its direction, and that is the Statement of Allah, Blessed be He and Most High, of the Ayah: The Day some of the signs of your Lord come, no soul shall be benefited by its believing.” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3536)   

مَا جَاءَ بِكَ يَا أَصْلَعُ؟ فَقُلْتُ ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًى بِمَا يَصْنَعُ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّهُ حَاكَ أَوْ حَالَ فِي نَفْسِي الْمَسْحُ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَهَلْ حَفِظْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِيهِ شَيْئًا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ كُنَّا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ لَا نَخْلَعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثًا إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ لَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَبَوْلٍ وَنَوْمٍ قُلْتُ فَهَلْ حَفِظْتَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْهَوَى شَيْئًا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرِ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَنَادَاهُ رَجُلٌ فِي أُخْرَيَاتِ الْقَوْمِ بِصَوْتٍ لَهُ جَهْوَرِيٍّ أَعْرَابِيٍّ جِلْفٍ جَافٍ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْقَوْمُ مَهْ فَإِنَّكَ قَدْ نُهِيتَ عَنْ هَذَا فَأَجَابَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى نَحْوٍ مِنْ صَوْتِهِ فَقَالَ «هَاؤُمُ» قَالَ الْمَرْءُ يُحِبُّ الْقَوْمَ وَلَمْ يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ قَالَ «الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ» قَالَ فَمَا بَرِحَ يُحَدِّثُنِي حَتَّى حَدَّثَنِي «أَنَّ اللهَ ﷻ جَعَلَ بِالْمَغْرِبِ بَابًا مَسِيرَةُ عَرْضِهِ سَبْعُونَ عَامًا لِلتَّوْبَةِ لَا يُغْلَقُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ قِبَلِهِ» وَذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللهِ ﷻ {يَوْمَ يَأْتِي بَعْضُ آيَاتِ رَبِّكَ لَا يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ آمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمَانِهَا خَيْرًا}  

[Machine] I participated in the caliphate of Uthman. The reason for my visit was to meet the companions of Muhammad ﷺ . I met Safwan ibn Asaal al-Muradi and asked him if he had met the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He said yes and that he accompanied him in twelve battles. I asked him about wiping over the socks, and he replied that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to command us, when we were traveling, to wipe over our socks for three days and nights, whether we had urinated, defecated, or slept. But as for impurity due to sexual defilement, he did not mention it. One night, while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting, he mentioned a gate from the west to the east, the width of which is seventy years, open for repentance and will not be closed until the sun rises from its opposite direction. Then a man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and called out to him in a loud voice, saying, "O Muhammad, do you see the man who loves the people but cannot catch up with them?" The Prophet ﷺ replied in a similar tone, saying, "A person is with the one he loves."  

وَفَدْتُ فِي خِلَافَةِ عُثْمَانَ ؓ وَإِنَّمَا حَمَلَنِي عَلَى الْوِفَادَةِ لُقْيُ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ قَالَ فَلَقِيتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيَّ فَقُلْتُ لَقِيتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَغَزَوْتُ مَعَهُ ثِنْتَيْ عَشَرَ غَزْوَةً فَقُلْتُ حَدِّثْنِي عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ نَمْسَحَ عَلَى خِفَافِنَا ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ وَأَيَّامَهُنَّ مِنْ بَوْلٍ أَوْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ نَوْمٍ فَأَمَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ فَلَا قَالَ وَبَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ وَذَكَرَ بَابًا مِنْ قِبَلِ مَغْرِبِ الشَّمْسِ مَسِيرَةُ عَرْضِهِ سَبْعِينَ عَامًا مَفْتُوحٌ لِلتَّوْبَةِ لَا يُغْلَقُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ قِبَلَهِ قَالَ وَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يُنَادِيهِ بِصَوْتٍ لَهُ جَهْوَرِيٍّ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَرَأَيْتَ الرَّجُلَ يُحِبُّ الْقَوْمَ وَلَمَّا يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ فَأَجَابَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِنَحْوٍ مِنْ صَوْتِهِ «الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ»  

[Machine] "When we used to travel, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us not to take off our footwear three times, except for when in a state of janabah (major ritual impurity). However, it is permissible to remove them for relieving oneself, urinating, or sleeping."  

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَمَرَنَا أَنْ لَا نَخْلَعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثًا إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ أَوْ نَوْمٍ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: The time limit for wiping over the socks for a traveller is three days (and three nights) and for a resident it is one day and one night. Abu Dawud said: Another version adds: Had we requested him to extend (the period of wiping), he would have extended. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 157)   

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ فِي الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ «لِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ»  

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ say, "For the traveler, if he enters his two feet while they are pure, he should wipe on them for three days and nights, and he should not remove them from any defecation or urination except from sexual impurity."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لِلْمُسَافِرِ إِذَا أَدْخَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ وَهُمْا طَاهِرَتَانِ أَنْ يَمْسَحَ عَلَيْهِمَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ وَلَا يَنْزِعْهُمَا مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَلَا بَوْلٍ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ»  

[Machine] "What brought you here?" I said, "Seeking knowledge." He said, "No Muslim seeks knowledge except that the angels open their wings, pleased with what he is doing." I said to him, "You are a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I have something regarding the masah on the two khuffain after answering the call of nature or relieving oneself." So tell me something if you have heard it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to command us, when we were on a journey or traveling, to wipe over our socks for three nights and days, without taking them off except for janabah, but not for defecation, urination or sleep." I said to him, "Did you hear him saying anything regarding desires?" He said, "Yes, we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a battle or Umrah, and when an Arab came towards his riding animal, he started calling out loudly, 'O Muhammad! O Muhammad!' So it was said to him, 'Lower your voice, for you have been commanded to do so.' He said, 'By Allah, I will not lower it until I hear it.' And he was a tall, stout man. When the Prophet ﷺ heard his voice, he said, 'Here I am.' He said, 'Do you see a man who loves a people, but has not yet joined them?' So he did not leave until he finished speaking to us. He told me, 'The gate of repentance is opened until the sun rises from the west. It is a distance of seventy years, and it is still open until the sun rises from that direction.' And that is when 'It will not benefit a soul to believe in its faith, if it had not believed before, or had earned through its faith some good.'"  

مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنَ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ يَطْلُبُ الْعِلْمَ إِلَّا تَضَعُ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًى بِمَا يَفْعَلُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّكَ امْرُؤٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِنَّهُ حَكَّ فِي صَدْرِي شَيْءٌ مِنَ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ بَعْدَ الْغَائِطِ وَالْبَوْلِ فَأَخْبِرْنِي بِشَيْءٍ إِنْ كُنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ نمْسَحَ عَلَى خِفَافِنَا ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ وَأَيَّامَهُنَّ وَأَنْ لَا نَخْلَعَهُمَا إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ أَوْ نَوْمٍ» فقُلْتُ لَهُ هَلْ سَمِعْتَهُ يَقُولُ فِي الْهَوَى شَيْئًا؟ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَزْوَةٍ أَوْ عَمْرَةٍ فَإِذَا أَعْرَابِيٌّ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ فِي أُخْرَيَاتِ الْقَوْمِ جَعَلَ يُنَادِي بِصَوْتٍ لَهُ جَهْوَرِيٍّ يَا مُحَمَّدُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقِيلَ وَيْلَكَ اغْضُضْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَ فَإِنَّكَ أُمِرْتَ بِذَلِكَ قَالَ وَاللهِ لَا أَفْعَلُ حَتَّى أَسْمَعَهُ وَإِذَا هُوَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ جَافٌّ جِلْفٌ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ صَوْتَهُ قَالَ «هَاؤُمُ» قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا وَلَمَّا يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ فَقَالَ «ذَاكَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ» فَلَمْ يَبْرَحْ يُحَدِّثُنَا حَتَّى حَدَّثَنِي «أَنَّ قِبَلَ الْمَغْرِبِ بَابًا مَفْتُوحًا لِلتَّوْبَةِ مَسِيرَةُ عَرْضِهِ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً لَا يَزَالُ مَفْتُوحًا حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ نَحْوِهِ فَإِذَا طَلَعَتْ مِنْ نَحْوِهِ» فَذَاكَ حِينَ {لَا يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ آمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمَانِهَا خَيْرًا}  

[Machine] A man did not leave his house seeking knowledge except that the angels would spread their wings in approval of what he was doing. I said to him, "Were you one of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" He replied, "No, but a passing thought occurred to me while I was wearing my socks." He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to command us, when we were traveling, not to take off our socks for three days and nights except when in a state of janabah (sexual impurity), but we could remove them for sleep, relieving ourselves, or urinating."  

مَا خَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ يَلْتَمِسُ عِلْمًا إِلَّا وَضَعَتْ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًى بِمَا يَفْعَلُ قُلْتُ لَهُ كُنْتَ امْرَأً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَكِنَّهُ حَدَثَ فِي نَفْسِي مَسْحٌ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ نَوْمٍ أَوْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ»  

[Machine] Whenever a person leaves his home in search of knowledge, the angels spread their wings in approval of his actions. I said to him, "Were you one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ?" He responded, "Indeed, it happened to me during the night as I wiped my feet." He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to instruct us, when we were on a journey, not to remove our socks for three days and nights except for sexual impurity, but we could remove them for sleep, defecation, or urination."  

مَا خَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ يَلْتَمِسُ عِلْمًا إِلَّا وَضَعَتْ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًى بِمَا يَفْعَلُ قُلْتُ لَهُ كُنْتَ امْرَأً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَكِنَّهُ حَدَثَ فِي نَفْسِي مَسْحٌ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ نَوْمٍ أَوْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ»  

[Machine] "What brought you here?" I said, "I came in search of knowledge." He said, "We were talking that the angels spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge, pleased with what he seeks." Then I asked him about wiping over the socks. He said, "We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey, and we used to wipe over our socks for three days and nights, and for the resident it is one day and night."  

مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ قُلْتُ جِئْتُ فِي طَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ قَالَ كُنَّا نَتَحَدَّثُ أَنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًى بِمَا يَطْلُبُ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ قَالَ «كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ سَفَرًا وَكُنَّا نَمْسَحُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ وَالْمُقِيمُ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ»  

[Machine] "What brought you here?" So I said, "You are a man who has accompanied the Prophet of Allah ﷺ and he has brushed on my chest over the two socks after using the restroom and urinating. Have you heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mention anything about it?" He said, "Yes, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to command us when we were traveling not to take off our socks for three days, except for using the restroom, urinating, or sleeping."  

مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّكَ امْرُؤٌ قَدْ صَحِبْتَ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَدْ حَاكَ فِي صَدْرِي الْمَسْحُ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ بَعْدَ الْغَائِطِ وَالْبَوْلِ فَهَلْ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَذْكُرُ فِي ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا؟ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ أَوْ نَوْمٍ
