Abu Bakr bought a saddle from ‘Azib for thirteen dirhams, then Abu Bakr said to 'Azib. Tell al-Bara to carry it to my house. He said: No, not until you tell us what happened when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out and you were with him. Abu Bakr said: We started our journey at the beginning of the night and we hastened for one day and one night, until it was midday. I looked into the distance to see whether there was anywhere to seek shade, and I saw a rock, so I went to it and it had a little shade. I smoothed the ground for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and spread a garment of camel hair for him, and said: Lie down and rest, O Messenger of Allah. So he lay down, and I went out to see if I could spot anyone looking for us. Then I saw a shepherd and I said: Who do you belong to, O boy? He said: To a man of Quraish. He mentioned his name and I recognised it. I said: Is there any milk in your sheep? He said: Yes | said: Will you milk some for me? He said: Yes. I told him to do that, so he caught a sheep, then I told him to brush the dust from its teat, then to brush the dust off his hands. I had a small vessel with me on the neck of which was a cloth. He milked a little bit of milk for me and I poured it into the vessel until it cooled down. Then I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When I reached him, he had already woken up. I said: Drink, O Messenger of Allah. He drank until I was pleased, then I said: Is it time to move on? So we moved on and the people were coming after us but none of them caught up with us except Suraqah bin Malik bin Ju'shum, who was riding a horse of his, I said: O Messenger of Allah, someone has caught up with us. He said: ʿDo not be afraid, for Allah is with us.ʿ When he got close to us, and there was no more between us and him then the length of a spear or two or three spears, I said: O Messenger of Allah, this pursuer has caught up with us, and I wept. He said: ʿWhy are you weeping?ʿ I said: I am not weeping for myself; rather I am weeping for you. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed against him [the pursuer] and said: “O Allah, protect us from him by whatever means You will.” Then his horse's legs sank into the solid ground up to its belly, and he fell off it. He said: O Muhammad, I know that this is because of you; pray to Allah to save me from my predicament, and by Allah I shall divert away from you any one who is behind me of those who are seeking you. Here is my quiver, take one arrow. You are going to pass by some camels and sheep of mine in such and such a place, take whatever you need from thern. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿI have no need of it.“ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed for him and he was released, and he went back to his companions. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I continued on our way until we came to Madinah, where the people met him. They came out on the road and on the roofs, and a lot of servants and children crowded the road saying: Allahu Akbar, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has come, Muhammad has come. The people disputed as to who he would stay with. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿTonight I will stay with Banun-Najjar, the maternal uncles of 'Abdul-Muttalib, to honour them thereby.” The next morning, he went where he was instructed. Al-Bara' bin 'Azib said: The first of the Muhajireen to come to us was Mus'ab bin 'Umair, the brother of Banu 'Abdud-Dar. Then Ibn Umm Maktoom, the blind man and brother of Banu Fihr, came to us. Then 'Umar bin al-Khattab, came to us with twenty riders and we said: What happened to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? He said: He is behind me. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and Abu Bakr was with him. Al-Bara said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not come until I had read some soorahs from al-Mufassal [Al-Mufassal is that portion of the Qur'an which goes from Qaf to an-Nas]. Isra'eel said: al-Bara' was one of the Ansar from Banu Harithah.

[Machine] He heard some of the delegation from Abd al-Qays saying, "We have come to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his joy increased upon seeing us. When we reached the people, they made way for us and we sat down. The Prophet ﷺ welcomed us and prayed for us. Then he looked at us and said, "Who is your leader and chief?" We all pointed to Mundhir ibn 'Amr. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Is this the one with the scar?" It was the first day he was given this nickname because of a blow to his face with a donkey's hoof. We said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He then followed the people and assessed their resources and belongings. Then he took off his traveling clothes and put on his best clothes. He then approached the Prophet ﷺ , who had stretched out his leg and leaned on it. When Mundhir approached, the people made way for him and said, "Here is Mundhir!" The Prophet ﷺ straightened himself and sat up, welcomed him, and treated him kindly. Then he asked about his lands and named for him a village called Safa and Mashqar, among other villages. Mundhir said, "By my parents, O Messenger of Allah, you know the names of our villages." The Prophet ﷺ said, "I have already been to your lands and it has opened up to me. Then he approached the Ansar and said, "O people of the Ansar, honor your brothers, for they are like you in Islam, and they bear the closest resemblance to you in hair and appearance. They have submitted willingly, not by force or coercion, as a people who refused to submit were killed. When they woke up, the Prophet ﷺ said, "How do you see the status of your brothers and their hospitality towards you?" They replied, "They are the best brothers. They have provided us with bedding, made our food, stayed with us, and taught us the Book of our Lord and the Sunnah of our Prophet." The Prophet ﷺ was pleased and delighted with this, then he approached us one by one and asked each of us about what we had learned and taught. Some of us learned and taught greetings, the mother of the Book, and two Surahs, while others learned and taught the Sunnah and two Sunnahs. Then he turned to us and said, "Do you have any provisions with you?" The people were happy about this and rushed to prepare their belongings. Each man came with a handful of dates and placed it on a cloth in front of him, holding a piece of cloth in his hand. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do you call this a variety of provisions?" We said, "Yes." Then he pointed to another handful of dates and asked, "Do you call this a pair of sandals?" We said, "Yes." Then he pointed to another handful of dates and asked, "Do you call this a gift?" We said, "

[Machine] I went to complain to Alaa ibn Al-Hadrami about it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . I passed by Al-Rabadha and there was an old lady from the Banu Tamim sitting alone. She said to me, "O Abdullah, I have a need with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Can you convey it to him?" I agreed and carried her on my camel and we arrived at Al-Madinah. When we reached the mosque, it was filled with its people and there was a black flag flapping with a proud horseman holding a sword in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . I asked, "What's happening with the people?" They replied, "They want to appoint Amr ibn Al-Aas as their leader." So I sat down. Then he (the Messenger of Allah) entered his house or his tent, and I sought permission to enter. He allowed me to come in, so I entered and greeted him. He asked, "Did you have any dealings with the Banu Tamim?" I replied, "Yes." He said, "They owed us some debts and I passed by an old lady from the Banu Tamim who asked me to convey this to you." Then, she entered and I said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , "If you find it appropriate, create a separation between us and the Banu Tamim." So he requested for a pot of dehn oil, which was smeared on her and she became calm and excited. She asked, "O Messenger of Allah, where will you send Mu'adh?" He replied, "I said, 'I am to them like the Mazi (a type of she-camel) is to the A'd. He replied, 'Indeed, the Mazi died due to carrying loads, and I am to carry this load. But I don't feel that it has been a burden on me. I seek refuge with Allah and His Messenger from being like the feathers of 'Ad.' He asked, 'What is a feather of 'Ad?' He knew the answer better than anyone else, but he wanted to narrate so I replied, 'The 'Ad endured famine, so they sent for a wafid (a person who delivers messages on behalf of others) and they called him Qayl (previously asked). He passed by Mu'awiya ibn Bakr's tent and stayed with him for a month, giving him alcohol to drink and being entertained by two servant girls called al-Jaradatan. When the month was over, he left for the mountains of Tihamah and called out to Allah, "O Allah, You know that I didn't come to cure the sick nor free captives, so let the rains fall on 'Ad as You make them drink, and don't leave a single one of them alive." Then, thick black clouds passed over them and called out, "Take it (rain) from this side and take it from the black part." So he pointed to one of the black clouds and said, "Take it from this one, gray ash". And he said, "Let there not be a single person among the 'Ad." Abu Wa'il said: It was conveyed to me that when the wind was sent against them, it didn't stop until they were annihilated. Then Abu Wa'il said, "The man and the woman, when they send a wafid (messenger) to them, they should not be like the wafid of 'Ad."

[Machine] We were informed by Shaddad bin Abdullah Al-Damishqi, who was one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ , that Abu Umarah said, "O Amr bin Abasah, the companion of wisdom, the wisdom of giving charity is a man from the tribe of Bani Sulaym. What makes you claim that you are a quarter of Islam?" He said, "In the period of ignorance, I used to see people in misguidance and I did not see any value in idols. Then I heard about a man who was reporting news from Makkah and narrating stories. So, I rode my camel until I reached Makkah, where I found the Messenger of Allah ﷺ hiding while his people were bold against him. I showed kindness to him and entered to meet him. I asked him, 'Who are you?' He said, ‘I am the Messenger of Allah.’ I asked, 'What is a Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'The Messenger of Allah is a Prophet.' I asked, 'Did Allah send you?' He said, 'Yes.' I asked, 'For what purpose did Allah send you?' He said, 'To worship Allah alone and not associate anything with Him, to demolish idols, and to maintain family ties.' Then I asked, 'Who is with you in this?' He said, 'The free and the slave or the slave and the free.' And he mentioned that Abu Bakr bin Abi Quhafa and Bilal, the slave of Abu Bakr, were with him. I said, 'I will follow you.' He said, 'You are not capable of that today, but return to your family. When you hear that I have emerged, come to me.' So, I returned to my family and I embraced Islam. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ migrated to Madinah, and I continued to search for news until a delegation from Yathrib came. I asked, 'Who is this Makkian man who has come to you?' They said, 'His people wanted to kill him, but they were unable, so there was a treaty between him and them.' And we left the people in confusion. I, Amr bin Abasah, rode my camel until I reached Madinah. I entered and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, do you recognize me?' He said, 'Yes, aren't you the one who came to me from Makkah?' I said, 'Indeed.' So, I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, teach me what Allah has taught you, for I am ignorant.' He said, 'If you pray Fajr, then shorten your prayer until the sun rises. Then do not pray until it is fully elevated, as at that time, the disbelievers prostrate to it. When it rises the height of a spear or two, then pray, as the prayer is witnessed and forbidden until the spear is shaded by the shadow. Then shorten your prayer, as at that time, Hellfire is kindled. When the sun has fully set, then you may pray Asr. When you pray Asr, then shorten your prayer until the sun has set, as at that time, the disbelievers prostrate to it.' I said, 'O Prophet of Allah, tell me about ablution.' He said, 'None of you should perform ablution, then rinse the mouth, sniff water into the nose, and blow it out, except that his sins are expiated from his mouth and nostrils with the water when it flows. Then, wash his face as Allah, the Most High, ordered.'

[Machine] "I arrived in Sham and it was said to me that in this church is a messenger of Caesar to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. So, we entered the church and there I saw an elderly man, so I said to him, 'Are you the messenger of Caesar to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' He replied, 'Yes.' I said, 'Tell me about that.' He said, 'When he fought the battle of Tabuk, he wrote a letter to Caesar and sent it with a man named Dihyah bin Khalifa. When he read his letter, he placed it on his bed and sent it to his bishops and the heads of his companions. He said, 'This man has sent a messenger to you and written a letter to you, giving you three options: either you follow him in his religion, or you pay him tribute that is collected from you and brings you protection and allows you to continue with your current lifestyle in your land, or you engage in war with him.' They knelt down and pondered until some of them emerged from their councils and said, 'We will not follow him in his religion and abandon our religion and the religion of our forefathers, nor will we pay him tribute that will be collected from us, but we will engage in war with him.' He said, 'That was how it was. However, I disliked doing anything without consulting you.' 'Abbad then said, 'Didn't Najashi embrace Islam when the message reached us?' He replied, 'Yes, but he saw something from them.' 'Abbad said, 'He asked me to find someone from the Arabs to write a reply to him according to his letter.' So, I went with him while I was a young man and he took me to him. He wrote his reply and said to me, 'Remember three points, if you forget anything from me: when he reads my letter, does he mention day and night? Does he mention his letter to me? And see if you notice a mark on his back.' So, I approached him until I met him in Tabuk, seated in a gathering with his companions. I asked and was informed about him. Then, I handed him the letter. He called Muawiya and recited the letter to him. When he reached the part where I said, 'You invited me to a garden, its width encompasses the heavens and the earth, so where is the fire?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'When the night comes, where is the day?' He said, 'So, he said to me, 'I wrote to Najashi, but he tore it apart and Allah tore his kingdom apart.' He said, 'Abbad then said, 'Didn't Najashi embrace Islam and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ hold the prayer for him in Madinah in front of his companions?' He replied, 'Yes, that's true. This is so-and-so and that is so-and-so,' Ibn Khuthaym mentioned all of them, but I forgot their names. So, I wrote a letter to Kisra, but he tore it apart and Allah tore his kingdom apart. Then, I wrote a letter to Caesar, and he replied to me. The people feared them as long as there was fear in their lives. And then he asked me, 'Who are you?' I said, 'I am from Tanukh.' He said, 'O brother from Tanukh, are you a Muslim?' I said, 'No, I came from a group of people who are following their religion, and I am not willing to change my religion until I return to them.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled or he smiled. When I finished my business, I got up and when I turned to leave, he called me and said, 'O brother from Tanukh, come and reach what you were commanded to do.' I had forgotten it, so I turned back from behind the gathering and threw a cloak that was on his back. I saw the hump on his shoulder like a huge sphere."

[Machine] "Julaibib used to enter upon women and interact with them. So I said to my wife, 'Julaibib should not enter upon you, for if he were to enter upon you, I am afraid that he would do something.' The Ansar would not marry off their daughters until they found out if there was any need for the Prophet, ﷺ , in her. So the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said to a man from the Ansar, 'Marry your daughter to me.' He said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah, this is certainly an honor.' The Prophet, ﷺ , said, 'I don't want her for myself, but I want her for Julaibib.' The man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, for Julaibib?' He said, 'Yes, for Julaibib.' So he consulted her mother, and when the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , came, he informed her of what her mother had said. She said, 'Julaibib, is it him?' She repeated this three times. 'Yes, by Allah, for I will not marry him.' So when he wanted to stand up to inform the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , of what she had said, the girl said, 'Who proposed to me to you?' Her mother informed her. She said, 'Are you rejecting the command of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ ?' Push me, for he has not disappointed me.' So her father went to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and informed him. He said, 'What is your opinion about her?' Then he married her to Julaibib. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , went on a campaign, and when Allah granted them victory, he asked his companions, 'Have you lost anyone?' They said, 'We have lost so-and-so, and we have lost so-and-so.' He said, 'Look, have you lost anyone?' They said, 'No.' He said, 'But I have lost Julaibib.' So seek him among the slain.' They searched for him until they found him beside seven men he had killed, and then they killed him.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, here he is, beside seven men he had killed, and then they killed him.' So the Prophet, ﷺ , stood over him and said, 'He has killed seven and then they killed him. This one is from me and I am from him. This one is from me and I am from him.' He raised his head and placed him on his side, and there was no bed except that of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ . Then he placed him in his grave. It is not mentioned that he was bathed. Thabit said, 'Wealth that the Ansar had would be spent but they did not find anyone who narrated about it in this world except Hammad bin Salamah. How well he narrated it.'"

[Machine] Narrated by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said: "Once, I and a young boy from the Ansar were throwing arrows at targets in front of us, according to a promise we made to each other during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. We continued until the sun appeared as if it was a black and cold ball. Then one of us said to his companion, 'Let us go to the mosque, and I swear by Allah that I will inform the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this extraordinary event in his Ummah.' So we went to the mosque, and behold, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was there. He went out to the people and prayed in a manner longer than any prayer he had ever prayed before, so much so that we could not hear any movement from him. Then he prostrated in a similarly prolonged manner, and again we could not hear any movement from him. He performed the second unit of prayer in the same manner. While he was sitting between the two units, the sun appeared and he performed a sitting that was the longest he had ever done. I thought he would never finish. Then he said the tasleem and praised Allah and testified that He is Allah and His Messenger. Then he addressed the people and said, 'O people, I swear by Allah that if you knew the things that I know, you would have seen the signs in this sun, moon, and stars as the death of great men from the people of the earth. But they would deny it. However, these signs are among Allah's signs that His slaves consider, to see who among them will repent. By Allah, since I started praying, I have not seen you in such a state, concerned about your worldly affairs and your hereafter. By Allah, the Hour will not come until 30 liars appear. The last of them will be the one-eyed Dajjal who will have a blind eye, which looks like the eye of Abu Talha, a companion from the Ansar, between his eyes and Aisha's room. He will claim that he is Allah. Whoever believes in him and testifies to his claim, his good deeds done before that day will not benefit him. And whoever disbelieves in him and denies him, no harm will come to his deeds. A grey-haired old man, perhaps Hassan Ash-Shaib, said that his bad deeds will outweigh his good deeds. The Dajjal will appear on the entire earth except for the Haram and Bayt al-Maqdis. He will gather the believers in Bayt al-Maqdis, where they will experience a severe earthquake. Then Allah will destroy him and his army, to the extent that stones and trees will call out to the believers, saying, 'O believer, this is a Jew,' or 'This is a disbeliever, come and kill him!' But it will not be like that until you witness events that will greatly concern you and you will wonder whether your Prophet has told you about them. And it will not be like that until mountains move from their places consecutively, one after another, and until the closing of the gates. Then I witnessed a sermon by Simarah in which he mentioned this Hadith, but he did not start or end it in its proper context."

I went out with 'Ubaidullah bin ʿAdi Al-Khaiyar. When we reached Hims (i.e. a town in Syria), 'Ubaidullah bin ʿAdi said (to me), "Would you like to see Wahshi so that we may ask him about the killing of Hamza?" I replied, "Yes." Wahshi used to live in Hims. We enquired about him and somebody said to us, "He is that in the shade of his palace, as if he were a full water skin." So we went up to him, and when we were at a short distance from him, we greeted him and he greeted us in return. 'Ubaidullah was wearing his turban and Wahshi could not see except his eyes and feet. 'Ubaidullah said, "O Wahshi! Do you know me?" Wahshi looked at him and then said, "No, by Allah! But I know that ʿAdi bin Al-Khiyar married a woman called Um Qital, the daughter of Abu Al-Is, and she delivered a boy for him at Mecca, and I looked for a wet nurse for that child. (Once) I carried that child along with his mother and then I handed him over to her, and your feet resemble that child's feet." Then 'Ubaidullah uncovered his face and said (to Wahshi), "Will you tell us (the story of) the killing of Hamza?" Wahshi replied "Yes, Hamza killed Tuaima bin ʿAdi bin Al-Khaiyar at Badr (battle) so my master, Jubair bin Mutʿim said to me, 'If you kill Hamza in revenge for my uncle, then you will be set free." When the people set out (for the battle of Uhud) in the year of 'Ainain ..'Ainain is a mountain near the mountain of Uhud, and between it and Uhud there is a valley.. I went out with the people for the battle. When the army aligned for the fight, Siba' came out and said, 'Is there any (Muslim) to accept my challenge to a duel?' Hamza bin ʿAbdul Muttalib came out and said, 'O Siba'. O Ibn Um Anmar, the one who circumcises other ladies! Do you challenge Allah and His Apostle?' Then Hamza attacked and killed him, causing him to be non-extant like the bygone yesterday. I hid myself under a rock, and when he (i.e. Hamza) came near me, I threw my spear at him, driving it into his umbilicus so that it came out through his buttocks, causing him to die. When all the people returned to Mecca, I too returned with them. I stayed in (Mecca) till Islam spread in it (i.e. Mecca). Then I left for Taif, and when the people (of Taif) sent their messengers to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I was told that the Prophet ﷺ did not harm the messengers; So I too went out with them till I reached Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When he saw me, he said, 'Are you Wahshi?' I said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Was it you who killed Hamza?' I replied, 'What happened is what you have been told of.' He said, 'Can you hide your face from me?' So I went out when Messenger of Allah ﷺ died, and Musailamah Al-Kadhdhab appeared (claiming to be a prophet). I said, 'I will go out to Musailamah so that I may kill him, and make amends for killing Hamza. So I went out with the people (to fight Musailamah and his followers) and then famous events took place concerning that battle. Suddenly I saw a man (i.e. Musailamah) standing near a gap in a wall. He looked like an ash-colored camel and his hair was dishevelled. So I threw my spear at him, driving it into his chest in between his breasts till it passed out through his shoulders, and then an Ansari man attacked him and struck him on the head with a sword. ʿAbdullah bin ʿUmar said, 'A slave girl on the roof of a house said: Alas! The chief of the believers (i.e. Musailamah) has been killed by a black slave." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4072)

[Machine] He heard some delegation from the tribe of Abdul-Qais saying, "We have come to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he was very pleased with our arrival. When we finished meeting with the people, they made way for us and we sat down. The Prophet ﷺ greeted us and prayed for us. Then he looked at us and said, 'Who is your leader and your chief?' So we pointed to Mujdhir ibn A'idhah. The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Is this the one with the scar?' And this was the first day on which he was given this name by being struck on the face with the hoof of a camel. We said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' Then some of the people missed us and their belongings were delayed. So their riding animals and provisions were gathered and their defect was removed. The Prophet ﷺ took off their travel clothes and they wore their good clothes. Then he turned to the Prophet ﷺ, and the Prophet ﷺ extended his leg and supported himself. When Mujdhir approached him, the people made room for him and said, 'Here, O Mujdhir.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Sit here, O Mujdhir,' and he sat on the right side of the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ greeted him and treated him kindly, and he asked him about his land and named a village for him, Safa and Mushaqar, and other villages of migration. Then he said, 'By my father and mother, O Messenger of Allah, you are better acquainted with the names of our villages than us.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Indeed, I have traversed your lands and it was extensive for me.' He said, 'Then he turned to the Ansar and said, 'O people of the Ansar, honor your brothers, for they are similar to you in Islam. The most similar thing to you is a poet. They embraced Islam willingly, not by force or compulsion. When a people refused to embrace Islam, they were killed.' He said, 'When they became the next day, he said, 'How did you find the hospitality of your brothers and their welcoming of you?' They said, 'The best of brothers are the ones who are generous, they made their homes available to us, they provided us with the best food, they slept and woke us up, and they taught us the Book of our Lord, the Blessed and Exalted, and the Sunnah of our Prophet ﷺ.' The Prophet ﷺ was pleased and happy with this, and then he approached us one by one, and each of us presented what we had learned and taught. Some of us knew the greetings, the mother of the Book, and the Surah, the two Surahs, and the Sunnah. Then he approached us with his face and said, 'Do you have anything of your provisions with you?' The people were happy with this and began to present their provisions. Each of them brought handfuls of dates and put them on a piece of

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ conquered Khaybar, Al-Hajjaj bin 'Ilat said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have wealth and family in Makkah, and I want to go to them. I am in a state of Ihram, so if I receive something from you or say something, will I still be considered in a state of Ihram?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him permission to say whatever he wished, so he went to his wife when he arrived and said, "Gather for me whatever you have, for I want to buy from the spoils of Muhammad ﷺ and his companions, for they have been made permissible. Their wealth has been taken." This news spread in Makkah, and the Muslims were saddened while the polytheists rejoiced. The news reached Al-'Abbas, who was disturbed and could not stand up. Ma'mar mentioned that 'Uthman Al-Jazari told me about Miqussam, who said that his son, named Qutham, was taken by his father and placed on his chest while he said, "My dear Qutham, you resemble the one with the flattened nose, the Asammaynabi, the one with blessings despite people's rejection." Thabit reported from Anas that the boy was then sent to Al-Hajjaj bin 'Ilat, who said to him, "Woe to you! What have you brought and what do you say?" The boy replied, "The promise of Allah is better than what I brought. Al-Hajjaj bin 'Ilat said to his boy, "Read the greeting to my father and tell him that he should let me into some of his houses so that I may come to him. Tell him that the news is according to his liking." When Al-Hajjaj bin 'Ilat's boy arrived at the door of his home, he said, "Be happy, O Abu Al-Fadl!" Al-'Abbas joyfully stepped forward and kissed him between his eyes, and he informed him of what Al-Hajjaj had said. Al-Hajjaj then came and informed him that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had conquered Khaybar, seized their wealth, and the arrows of Allah (referring to the blessings) had been shot in their wealth. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had chosen Safiyyah bint Huyayy for himself and offered her the choice to either be set free and become his wife, or to return to her people. She chose to be set free and became his wife. However, I have come for the wealth that I had here and I wanted to collect it. So, I sought permission from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he gave me permission to say whatever I wished. So, keep three things secret from me and mention what you may have heard." Al-Hajjaj's wife gathered whatever jewelry and belongings she had and handed them over to him. Then he put them on and, after three days, Al-'Abbas came to Al-Hajjaj's wife and asked her, "What did your husband do?" She informed him that he had left on such and such date and said, "Do not be saddened by what you have heard. May Allah bless you, O Abu Al-Fadl." Al-'Abbas replied, "By Allah, I believe that you are telling the truth." He then left until he came to the gatherings of the Quraysh, where they were saying that when he passed by them, nothing but good would come to him. They said to him, "Nothing but good has come to you, O Abu Al-Fadl." He replied, "By the grace of Allah, nothing but good has come to me. Al-Hajjaj bin 'Ilat has informed me that Khaybar has been conquered by the Prophet ﷺ , the arrows of Allah (referring to the blessings) have been shot in their wealth, and the Prophet ﷺ has chosen Safiyyah for himself. He asked me to keep three things secret from him and said that he only came to collect his wealth that he had here. Then he will leave." Allah removed the sadness that was upon the Muslims and the joy that was upon the polytheists. The Muslims came out, and whoever had entered his home feeling sad returned. They came to Al-'Abbas, and he informed them of the news. The Muslims became joyful, and any feelings of sorrow, anger, or sadness towards the polytheists were reversed.

[Machine] I was in the company of my father Talha on the day of Khaybar, and my feet touched the feet of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. We came to them when the sun rose, and they had already brought out their cattle and were herding them. They also came out with their weapons and shackles as they passed by. They said, "Muhammad and al-Khamis (the Prophet and his companions)." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allahu Akbar! Khaybar is ruined. When we conquer the land of a people, it is a terrible morning for those who are warned." He said, "Allah has given them a great defeat." He said, "A beautiful young slave girl called Dayyah fell into the hands of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He bought her for seven dinars and then gave her to Umm Sulaim to dress and prepare her. She was the daughter of Huwayy. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ appointed her as his concubine and gave her a diet of dates, barley, and clarified butter. Then the ground was tested with locusts and the meat, dates, and clarified butter were placed on it. The people ate until they were full. They said, "We don't know if he married her or made her the mother of a child." They said, "If he hides her, then she is his wife, and if he does not hide her, then she is the mother of a child." When he wanted to ride, he covered her until she sat on the back of a camel. When they came close to Al-Madinah, his she-camel, called Adba', stumbled. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ muttered to himself, and she muttered to herself. He said, "May Allah distance the Jewess." I said, "O Abu Hamzah, did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ marry her?" He said, "Yes, by Allah, he did marry her, and I witnessed the marriage feast of Zaynab bint Jahsh where the people were given bread and meat. He used to send me to invite the people. When I finished, he stood up, and I followed him. Two men lagged behind and he talked to them. They did not come out until they saw him leave. When they saw him, they stood up and left." He said, "By Allah, I do not know if I mentioned it to him or if the revelation came down to him informing him that they had gone out. He left and I followed him. When he put his foot in the threshold of the door, he drew the curtain between me and him. Then Allah revealed these Ayat: 'O you who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses until permission is given to you for a meal, (and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation.' Until the end of the Ayah."

[Machine] Ibn Abbas attended a group of Jews who came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Abu Al-Qasim, tell us about something that only a prophet knows." The Prophet said, "Ask me about whatever you want, but grant me the protection of Allah and what Jacobﷺ made his sons swear to, that if I tell you something, you will follow me in Islam." They agreed. They asked him about four things: which food the Israelites prohibited for themselves before the revelation of the Torah, how the water of a man and a woman differ, how a male offspring is conceived, and how the Prophet, an unlettered person, dreams and who his guardian angel is. The Prophet replied, "You have to abide by the covenant and promise with Allah. If I inform you, will you follow me?" They agreed. Then the Prophet told him, and they acknowledged. The Prophet then said, "I will ask you with the One who revealed the Torah to Moses, do you know that when Jacobﷺ fell seriously ill and his disease persisted, he vowed to Allah that if He healed him, he will prohibit for himself the most beloved food and the most beloved drink to him." They agreed. The Prophet said, "I bear witness with you by Allah who revealed the Torah to Moses. Do you know that the sperm of a man is thick and white, while the sperm of a woman is thin and yellow? Whichever of them surpasses in strength will dictate the gender of the offspring by the permission of Allah. If the man's sperm prevails over the woman's, the child will be male, and if the woman's sperm prevails over the man's, the child will be female by the permission of Allah." They agreed. The Prophet said, "I bear witness with you by Allah who revealed the Torah to Moses. Do you know that the eyes of this unlettered Prophet sleep, but his heart does not?" They agreed. Then they asked, "Who is your guardian angel among the angels?" The Prophet replied, "My guardian angel is Gabriel, peace be upon him. Whenever Allah sent a prophet, Gabriel has always been his guardian angel." They said, "If it were otherwise, we would have followed you and believed in you." The Prophet asked, "What prevents you from believing in me?" They replied, "Because we are your enemies." At that moment, Allah revealed the verse, "Say, "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - it is [none but] he who has brought the Qur'an down upon your heart, [O Muhammad], by permission of Allah"" (Quran 2:97), until the verse, "And behind them is the Book of Allah, which they do not know" (Quran 2:101). Then Allah further revealed, "Anger is upon anger" (Quran 2:90).

[Machine] So they started and spoke, and we do not know what they said. He said, then he got up and dusted off his clothes and said, "Woe to them! May they be destroyed!" They fell into a man who had ten (dirhams) and they fell into a man who said to him (the Prophet ﷺ), "I will send a man whom Allah will never humiliate; he loves Allah and His Messenger." He said, "Who can do this?" They said, "Ali is there." He said, "Where is Ali?" They said, "He is in the grinding mill." He said, "Why would any of you grind?" He said, so he came while he was blind, unable to see. He said, so he spat in his eyes, then he shook the banner three times and gave it to him. So he came with Safiyyah bint Huyy and he sent so-and-so with Surah At-Tawbah, then he sent Ali after him and he took it from him. He said, "No one should take it except a man from me and I am from him." He said, and he said to his cousins, "Which of you will support me in this world and the Hereafter?" He said, and Ali was sitting with him. So they refused. Ali said, "I will support you in this world and the Hereafter." He said, "You are my supporter in this world and the Hereafter." He said, so he left him and then he approached another man from among them and said, "Which of you will support me in this world and the Hereafter?" They refused. He said, so Ali said to him, "I will support you in this world and the Hereafter." He said, "You are my supporter in this world and the Hereafter." He said, and he was the first of the people to embrace Islam after Khadijah. He said, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took off his garment and put it on Ali, Fatimah, Hasan, and Husayn, and said, "Indeed, Allah wants to remove impurity from you, O people of the household, and purify you completely." He said, and Ali sold himself and wore the garment of the Prophet ﷺ, then slept in his place. He said, and the polytheists used to throw stones at the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Abu Bakr and Ali came, and Ali was sleeping. He said, and Abu Bakr thought that he was the Prophet of Allah. He said, so he said to him, "O Messenger of Allah!" He said, so Ali said to him, "Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has gone toward Bir Ma'un, so go after him and catch up with him." He said, so Abu Bakr went and entered the cave with him. He said, and Ali was being pelted with stones just as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to be, while he was relieving himself. He had wrapped his head in his garment, not uncovering it until daybreak. Then he uncovered his head and they said to him, "Indeed, you are a wretched one. Your companion we would throw stones at him while he wasn't relieving himself, and here we are throwing stones at you while you are relieving yourself. We have been displeased with that." He said, and he went out with the people in the Battle of Tabuk. He said, and Ali said to him, "Shall I go out with you?" He said, so Ali wept and said to him, "Would you not be pleased to be like Harun to my Musa, except that you are not a prophet? It would not be appropriate for me to go out without you as my caliph." He said, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "You are my guardian of every believer after me." And he said, and he blocked the doors of the mosque except for Ali's door. He said, so he would enter the mosque in a state of impurity, and that was his way, as there was no other way for him. He said, and he said, "Whoever I am his guardian, then Ali is his guardian." He said, and Allah Almighty informed us in the Qur'an that He was pleased with them, the people of the tree and He knew what was in their hearts. Did He inform us that He was displeased with them afterwards? He said, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Umar, when he said, "Give me permission and I will strike his neck," He said, so Ali said to him, "Were you doing that?" And how do you know that Allah has not looked at the people of Badr and said, "Do as you please"?

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , it is narrated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out one day and performed the prayer of migration, then he sat down. The people became startled, so he said, "Sit down, O people, for I did not rise from my place due to fear. Rather, Tamim Ad-Dari came to me and informed me of news that prevented me from experiencing joy and comfort. I wanted to share with you the joy of your Prophet. He informed me that a group from his cousins, the Banu 'Amir, had embarked on the sea, and they were struck by a violent wind. The wind brought them to an island they did not recognize. They sat in their boat until they arrived at the island. Then, they found a creature with a lot of hair that they were unsure if it was a man or a woman. They greeted it, and it returned their greeting. They said, 'Will you not inform us?' It said, 'I do not inform you, nor do I seek information from you. But in this monastery, there is someone who longingly awaits to inform you and seek information from you.' They said, 'Who are you?' It said, 'I am Al-Jassasah.' So, they set off until they reached the monastery. There, they found a man chained up, heavily bound, showing signs of great sadness and complaining a lot. They greeted him, and he returned their greetings. They asked him, 'Who are you?' He said, 'I am from the Arabs.' They asked, 'What have the Arabs done?' He said, 'Has their Prophet come forth after me?' They said, 'Yes.' He asked, 'What have they done?' They said, 'They have believed in him and affirmed him.' He said, 'That is good for them.' He had an enemy, and Allah exposed him to them. They asked, 'Are the Arabs today with one God, one religion, and one word?' They said, 'Yes.' He asked, 'What has happened to the spring of Zughar?' They said, 'The people drink from it, and their crops are irrigated by it.' He asked, 'What has happened to the date palm tree between 'Ammān and Bayt al-Maqdis?' They said, 'It produces fruit every year.' He asked, 'What has happened to the lake of Tabariyyah?' They said, 'It is full.' He sighed deeply, then sighed deeply again, then sighed deeply a third time. He swore, 'By the One in Whose Hands is the Life of Muhammad, it is as though if I were to leave my place right now, I would not leave behind any land belonging to Allah, except that I would tread upon it, except for Taibah. There is no authority for me over it.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'So, thus my joy reaches its peak. Surely, Allah has made Mecca and Medina sacred, and forbidden for the Dajjal to enter. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ swore, 'By the One besides whom there is no deity, there is no path, narrow or wide, in the east which is not guarded by an appointed angel with a drawn sword until the Day of Resurrection. The Dajjal will not be able to enter upon its inhabitants.' 'Amir commented, 'So, I met Al-Muharrir ibn Abi Hurayrah, and I narrated this Hadith to him. He said, 'I bear witness by my father that he narrated to me as you have narrated from Fatimah bint Qays.' However, he said, 'The two sanctuaries are sacred: Makkah and Medina.'

Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent out ten spies under the command of ʿAsim bin Thabit Al-Ansari, the grand-father of ʿAsim bin ʿUmar Al-Khattab. When they reached (a place called) Al-Hadah between 'Usfan and Mecca, their presence was made known to a sub-tribe of Hudhail called Banu Lihyan. So they sent about one hundred archers after them. The archers traced the footsteps (of the Muslims) till they found the traces of dates which they had eaten at one of their camping places. The archers said, "These dates are of Yathrib (i.e. Medina)," and went on tracing the Muslims' footsteps. When ʿAsim and his companions became aware of them, they took refuge in a (high) place. But the enemy encircled them and said, "Come down and surrender. We give you a solemn promise and covenant that we will not kill anyone of you." ʿAsim bin Thabit said, "O people! As for myself, I will never get down to be under the protection of an infidel. O Allah! Inform your Prophet about us." So the archers threw their arrows at them and martyred ʿAsim. Three of them came down and surrendered to them, accepting their promise and covenant and they were Khubaib, Zaid bin Ad-Dathina and another man. When the archers got hold of them, they untied the strings of the arrow bows and tied their captives with them. The third man said, "This is the first proof of treachery! By Allah, I will not go with you for I follow the example of these." He meant the martyred companions. The archers dragged him and struggled with him (till they martyred him). Then Khubaib and Zaid bin Ad-Dathina were taken away by them and later on they sold them as slaves in Mecca after the event of the Badr battle. The sons of Al-Harit bin ʿAmr bin Naufal bought Khubaib for he was a person who had killed (their father) Al-Hari bin ʿAmr on the day (of the battle) of Badr. Khubaib remained imprisoned by them till they decided unanimously to kill him. One day Khubaib borrowed from a daughter of Al-Harith, a razor for shaving his pubic hair, and she lent it to him. By chance, while she was inattentive, a little son of hers went to him (i.e. Khubaib) and she saw that Khubaib had seated him on his thigh while the razor was in his hand. She was so much terrified that Khubaib noticed her fear and said, "Are you afraid that I will kill him? Never would I do such a thing." Later on (while narrating the story) she said, "By Allah, I had never seen a better captive than Khubaib. By Allah, one day I saw him eating from a bunch of grapes in his hand while he was fettered with iron chains and (at that time) there was no fruit in Mecca." She used to say," It was food Allah had provided Khubaib with." When they took him to Al-Hil out of Mecca sanctuary to martyr him, Khubaib requested them. "Allow me to offer a two-rakʿat prayer." They allowed him and he prayed two rakʿat and then said, "By Allah! Had I not been afraid that you would think I was worried, I would have prayed more." Then he (invoked evil upon them) saying, "O Allah! Count them and kill them one by one, and do not leave anyone of them"' Then he recited: "As I am martyred as a Muslim, I do not care in what way I receive my death for Allah's Sake, for this is for the Cause of Allah. If He wishes, He will bless the cut limbs of my body." Then Abu Sarva, 'Ubqa bin Al-Harith went up to him and killed him. It was Khubaib who set the tradition of praying for any Muslim to be martyred in captivity (before he is executed). The Prophet ﷺ told his companions of what had happened (to those ten spies) on the same day they were martyred. Some Quraish people, being informed of ʿAsim bin Thabit's death, sent some messengers to bring a part of his body so that his death might be known for certain, for he had previously killed one of their leaders (in the battle of Badr). But Allah sent a swarm of wasps to protect the dead body of ʿAsim, and they shielded him from the messengers who could not cut anything from his body. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3989)

[Machine] The people said, "O Messenger of Allah, will we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do you have any difficulty seeing the sun when there are no clouds covering it?" They replied, "No, O Messenger of Allah." He then asked, "Do you have any difficulty seeing the moon on a full moon night when there are no clouds covering it?" They again replied, "No, O Messenger of Allah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Just like that, you will see Him on the Day of Resurrection. Allah will gather the people and ask those who worshipped something, 'Follow what you worshipped.' So those who worshipped the moon will follow the moon, those who worshipped the sun will follow the sun, and those who worshipped the idols will follow the idols. And this Ummah will be left with its hypocrites. Allah will come to them in a form that they do not recognize, and He will say, 'I am your Lord.' They will say, 'We seek refuge with Allah from you. This is our place until our Lord comes to us.' When our Lord comes to them, they will recognize Him. Then Allah will come to them in the form that they recognize, and He will say, 'I am your Lord.' They will say, 'You are our Lord,' and they will follow Him."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "A bridge will be set up over Hellfire." The Prophet ﷺ said, "I will be the first one to cross it on that day. O Allah, grant us safety, grant us safety.' This bridge will have hooks like the thorns of the Sa'dan tree. Have you seen the Sa'dan tree?" They said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Indeed, it is like the thorns of the Sa'dan tree, but its size and greatness are known only to Allah. People will be snatched away by their deeds. Among them will be those who are caught by their foreheads with the deeds they used to do, and there will be those who are caught by their backsides. They will be saved until when Allah is finished passing judgment among His servants and He wants to bring out of the Fire those who will be entitled to His mercy from among those who themselves said, 'Laa ilaha illallah (There is no God worthy of worship except Allah).' Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) will order the angels, 'Bring out those who used to utter La ilaha illAllah. And the angels will know them by the marks of prostration on their faces and by the traces of wudu' (ablution) on their limbs. Allah has forbidden the Fire to consume the traces of prostrations or ablution.'" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Thus, they will be brought out, having been burned and turned to charcoal.

[Machine] He married a woman and came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ seeking his assistance in paying her dowry. He asked, "How much did you give as dowry?" He replied, "I gave two hundred dirhams." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If you were to collect dirhams from your valley, you would not increase what I have nor would I give you anymore." He said, "So I stayed for a while, then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called me and sent me on an expedition to Najd. He said, 'Go on this expedition, perhaps you will achieve something.' So I set off with the army until we reached a place called Mumsin. When the evening came, our leader sent two men and said, 'When I make takbeer and start carrying, make takbeer and start carrying as well.' And he said, 'When we send two men, do not separate and I will ask one of you about the news of his companion, but I do not find him with him, and do not focus too much on searching.' So when we wanted to carry, I heard a man from Mumsin shout, 'O Khadrah!' So I became hopeful that we were going to get something from them. When we stood for takbeer, our leader carried and we carried as well. Then a man passed by me holding a sword, so I followed him. My companion said to me, 'Our leader has entrusted us not to focus too much on searching, so go back.' But I did not see anything but to follow him. He said, 'By Allah, you will go back or I will go back to him and tell him that you refused.' So I said, 'By Allah, I will follow him.' So I followed him until I came close to him and shot an arrow at him and it struck him on the chest and he fell. He said, 'Come, O Muslim, to Paradise!' When he saw that I did not approach him, I shot another arrow at him and it hit him, so he drew his sword and attacked me, but I took the sword from him and killed him. I cut off his head and we collected many spoils. Then we returned. When I woke up, I saw my camel tied to it another camel, on which there was a beautiful young woman. She would look back and say takbeer, so I asked her, 'Where are you looking?' She said, 'To a man, and by Allah, if he is alive, he will join you.' I said, 'And I thought it was my companion whom I killed. By Allah, I killed him, and this is his sword, hanging from the saddle of the camel I am on.' He said, 'And the scabbard of the sword has nothing hanging from the saddle of her camel.' So when I told her this, she said, 'Place this scabbard beneath it and smell it, if you are telling the truth.' He said, 'So I took it and smelled it, and then she cried.' He said, 'So we went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he gave me from those blessings that we had brought.'

He met Ibn 'Abbas and asked him about Witr. He said: "Shall I not lead you to one who knows best among the people of the world about the witr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He said: "Yes." (Ibn Abbas) said: "It is 'Aishah. So go to her and ask her (about witr) and then come back to me and tell me the answer that she gives you." So I went to Hakim bin Aflah and asked him to go accompany me to her. He said: "I shall not go to her, for I told her not to say anything about these two (conflicting) groups, but she refused (to accept my advice) and went on (to participate in the conflict)." I swore an oath, beseeching him (to take me to her). So he came with me and went unto her. She said to Hakim: "Who is this with you?" He said: "He is Sa'd bin Hisham." She said: "Which Hisham?" He said: "Ibn Amir." She supplicated for mercy for him and said: "What a good man Amir was." He said: "O Mother of the Believers, tell me about the character of the Messenger of Allah." She said: "Don't you read the Qur'an?" I said: "Yes." She said "The character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was the Qur'an." He said: "I wanted to get up (and leave), then I thought of the Qiyam (night prayer) of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: "Tell me about the Qiyam of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." She said: "Do you not recite this surah: "O you wrapped in garments?" I said: "Yes." She said: "Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, made Qiyam Al-Lail obligatory at the beginning of this surah, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions prayed Qiyam Al-Lail for one year. Allah (SWT) withheld the latter part of this surah for twelve months, then he revealed the lessening (of this duty) at the end of this surah, so Qiyam Al-Lail became voluntary after it had been obligatory." I felt inclined to stand up (and not ask anything further), then I thought of the witr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said: "O Mother of the Believers, tell me about the witr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." She said: "We used to prepare his siwak and water for his ablution, and Allah (SWT) would wake him when He wished during the night. He would use the siwak, perform ablution, and then pray eight rak'ahs in which he would not sit until he reached the eighth one. Then he would sit and remember Allah (SWT) and supplicate, then he would say the taslim that we could hear. Then he would pray two rak'as sitting after uttering the taslim, then he would pray one rak'ah, and that made eleven rak'ahs, O my son! When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ grew older and put on weight, he prayed witr with seven rak'ahs, then he prayed two rak'ahs sitting down after saying the taslim, and that made nine rak'ahs. O my son, when the Messenger of Allah ﷺoffered a prayer, he liked to continue to offer it, and when sleep, sickness, or pain distracted him from praying Qiyam Al-Lail, he would pray twelve rak'ahs during the day. I am not aware of the Prophet of Allah ﷺ having recited the whole Qur'an during a single night, or praying through the whole night until morning, or fasting a complete month, except Ramadan." I went to Ibn 'Abbas and told him what she had said, and he said: "She has spoken the truth. If I could go to her (and meet her face to face) I would so that she could tell me all of that verbally."

[Machine] We came to Jabir bin Abdullah while he was in Bani Salimah, and we asked him about the pilgrimage of the Prophet ﷺ. He told us that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stayed in Medina for nine years without performing Hajj. Then the permission was given to the people that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would perform Hajj this year. He said, "So many people from Medina descended upon the city, all seeking to accompany the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and do the same as he does. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out with a group of ten people on the tenth day of Dhul-Hijjah, and we accompanied him until we reached Dhul-Hulayfah. Asma bint 'Umais sent a message to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asking, 'What should I do?' He replied, 'Perform Ghusl (ritual bath), then put on your Ihram garments, then perform Istidfar (seeking forgiveness) with a cloth, and then proceed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ continued until his camel stopped in the open, and he began reciting Talbiyah, 'Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik, Labbaik la sharika laka Labbaik,

[Machine] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, she said: One day, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out and prayed the prayer of migration, then he sat down. The people became startled, so he said, "Sit, O people, for I did not rise from my place due to fear, but rather Tamim Ad-Dari came to me and informed me of news that deprived me of sleep and comfort. So I wanted to share with you the joy of your Prophet ﷺ. He informed me that a group from his relatives, the Banu 'Amir, rode the sea and a fierce wind overcame them. The wind pushed them towards an unknown island. They sat in wooden boats until they reached the island. Then they found a creature with a lot of hair, not knowing if it was a man or a woman. They greeted the creature with salaam, and the creature replied with salaam. They said, 'Can you inform us?' The creature replied, 'I am not here to inform you or ask for information. However, this monastery became a hardship for you. Inside, there is someone who has been yearning to tell you and ask you about their fate. They said, 'Who are you?' She said, 'I am the spy.' So they went until they reached the monastery. There they found a man who was severely bound, showing a lot of sadness and complaining. They greeted him, and he replied, asking, 'Who are you?' They said, 'We are from the Arabs.' He said, 'What have the Arabs done? Did their Prophet emerge?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'What did they do?' They said, 'They believed in him and affirmed his truthfulness.' He said, 'That is better for them.' He had an enemy, and Allah made him manifest to them. He said, 'So are the Arabs today united in their religion and their word?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'So what did the spring of Zughar do?' They said, 'It is wholesome. Its people drink from it, and their crops are irrigated by it.' He said, 'So what did the palm tree between 'Amman and Bayt Al-Maqdis do?' They said, 'Good. Its vegetation feeds its camels every year.' He said, 'So what did the Lake of Tiberias do?' They said, 'Full.' He said, 'So it sighed, and sighed, and sighed, and then he swore by Allah who there is none worthy of worship except Him, 'By Allah, there is no narrow road or wide road in the flat or mountain except that there is an angel holding a drawn sword until the Day of Resurrection, preventing Ad-Dajjal from entering it.' He said, 'Then I met Al-Muharrar bin Abi Hurayrah, and I informed him of the Hadith of Fatimah bint Qays. He testified to what I testified, except that he said, 'I bear witness that 'Aishah also narrated to me like she narrated to you, Fatimah.' Except that she said, 'The two sanctuaries are sacred: Makkah and Al-Madinah.'"

[Machine] I said to Ibn Abbas, "Indeed, Nawfal al-Shami claims or says that Musa was not the companion of Khidr. Musa, the son of Bani Israel said, 'Nawfal is lying, the enemy of Allah.' Ubayy ibn Ka'b narrated to me from the Prophet ﷺ that Musa stood among the Bani Israel to deliver a sermon. They asked him, 'Who is the most knowledgeable among the people?' He said, 'I am.' So Allah inspired him, 'I have a slave who is more knowledgeable than you.' He said, 'My Lord, show him to me.' It was said, 'Take a fish and put it in a basket, then wherever you lose it, it will be there.' So he took a fish and put it in a basket, and he and his companion walked along the shore until they reached a rock. Musa laid down and fell asleep while the fish started moving in the basket until it fell into the sea. Allah made the water flow back, and the fish came back to life and moved along with its companion on the shore until they came to the rock. They found a man covered with a garment and Musa greeted him, saying, 'Do you have any food? We are in need of it, for our journey has exhausted us.' The man replied, 'Indeed, we have encountered hardship on our journey.' The calamity was not removed from them until they passed by the thing that Allah commanded them. Musa exclaimed, 'Did you forget when we took refuge at the rock and I forgot about the fish? None other than Satan made me forget it.' They continued on their way, until when they reached the people of a town, they sought food from its inhabitants, but they refused to show them hospitality. Then they saw a wall about to collapse, and Khidr stood it up. Sufyan demonstrated it with his hands, raising them up like this. Then he placed his palms on top of each other, raising them up. Musa said, 'If you wished, you could have taken payment for it.' Khidr replied, 'This is the parting between me and you.'" Ibn Abbas said, "The first forgetfulness was unintentional." The Prophet ﷺ said, "May Allah have mercy on Musa. If he had been patient and continued to learn from him, we would have seen more wonders from him."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , sent a reconnaissance mission and appointed 'Asim ibn Thabit, who was the grandfather of 'Asim ibn 'Umar, as their leader. They set out until they reached a place between 'Usfan and Makkah known as "Bani Lihyan". They followed their tracks with a group of about one hundred men led by Ramm, and they pursued them until they reached a resting place where they found dates that were provisions from Madinah. They said, "These are dates from Yathrib." They followed their tracks until they caught up with them. When 'Asim ibn Thabit and his companions sensed them, they sought refuge in a rugged place, and when the people approached them, they surrounded them and said, "We have made a covenant and agreement with you that if you come to us, we will not kill any of you." 'Asim ibn Thabit said, "As for me, I do not enter into a treaty with a disbeliever." They said, "Fight them." So they fought 'Asim and killed him along with seven others. Only Hubayb ibn 'Adi and Zayd ibn ad-Dathinah remained. They entered into a covenant and agreement with them. When they felt secure from them, they tied their hands with their own bowstrings. The third man with them said, "This is the first act of treachery. I refuse to accompany them." So they killed him. Then they departed with Hubayb ibn 'Adi and Zayd ibn ad-Dathinah until they sold them in Makkah. They sold Hubayb to the sons of Al-Harith ibn 'Amir ibn Nawfal, who had killed Al-Harith on the Day of Badr. Hubayb stayed with them as a prisoner until they decided to kill him. He borrowed a razor from the daughter of Al-Harith to prepare himself with it. She said, "I inadvertently failed to restrain my son from approaching it, and he fell upon it until it reached him." She said, "Have no fear that I will kill him. I wouldn't kill him. You will not find a better captive than Hubayb. I saw him eating ripe grapes when Makkah had no ripe fruits at that time. And he is bound in iron, but his sustenance is only provided by Allah." Then they took him out of the sanctuary to kill him. He asked them, "Allow me to pray two Rak'ahs." He prayed the two Rak'ahs, and then said, "If you did not see my eagerness to die, I would increase in it by the Will of Allah." Hubayb was the first to offer two Rak'ahs before being killed. Then 'Uqbah ibn Al-Harith went toward him and killed him. The people of Quraysh sent word to 'Asim to bring them a part of his body that they could recognize. He was a great man among their elite who had been killed on the Day of Badr. So Allah sent upon them a cloud from behind, shielding them from his messengers. They were unable to harm him in any way.

[Machine] Afterwards, indeed, Allah created the creation, not in need of their obedience, secure from their disobedience. And the people on that day are in different situations and opinions. The Arabs inhabit those residences, the people of Hajr, the people of Wabar, and the people of Dabar. They pass by them with the goodness of this world and the abundance of their livelihoods. They do not ask Allah as a group nor do they recite His dead book. Their dead are in the fire, and their lives are blind and impure, along with countless desired and forbidden things. So when Allah intended to spread His mercy upon them, He sent to them a messenger from among themselves, noble and caring, eager for the believers. Allah's blessings, peace, mercy, and blessings be upon him. This did not stop them from harming him in his body and labeling him with names. With him was a book from Allah, speaking, that is not established except by His command and is not eliminated except with His permission. So when he was commanded to be firm and was burdened with jihad, he accepted the command of Allah. His argument was cleared, his words were approved, his call was proclaimed, and he left this world pious and pure, following the path of his companion. Then Abu Bakr succeeded him, and he followed his example and followed his path. And the Arabs or those who did that from among them returned to their previous state, except for those who refused to accept them after the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. He would not accept from them except the one who was reconcilable. He drew out his swords from their scabbards, and set fire to their kindling. Then he defeated the people of truth, the people of falsehood, but he did not sever their limbs or shed their blood until he entered them into that from which they had separated and solidified them in that from which they had departed. He had previously received a portion of Allah's wealth and used it to quench his thirst. And an Ethiopian woman who breastfed a child for him. He felt a pang in his throat when he saw that before he passed away. He attributed it to his successor and left this world pious and pure, following the path of his two companions. Then, O Umar bin Al-Khattab, you are the son of this world. Its kings nurtured you and fed you. It grew you up and you sought its benefits. But when you became its ruler, you abandoned it and left it in ruins, except for what you provide from it. So praise be to Allah who showed us your deception and relieved our distress through you. So go forth and do not turn back, for surely nothing can exalt the truth, nor humiliate falsehood. I speak these words and seek forgiveness from Allah for myself and for the believing men and believing women. Abu Ayyub said, "Umar bin Abdul Aziz would say about something, Ibn Al-Ahtam said to me, 'Go forth and do not turn back.'"

"The people of As-Suffah were the guests of the people of Islam,they had nothing of people nor wealth to rely upon. And By Allah, the One Whom there is none worthy of worship besides Him – I would lay on the ground on my liver (side) due to hunger, And I would fasten a stone to my stomach out of hunger. One day I sat by the way that they (the Companions) use to come out through. Abu Bakr passed and so I asked him about an Ayah from Allah's Book, not asking him except that he might tell me to follow him (for something to eat). But he passed on without doing so. Then ʿUmar passed, so I asked him about an Ayah from Allah's Book, not asking him except that he might tell me to follow him. But he passed on without doing so. Then Abul-Qasim ﷺ passed, and he smiled when he saw me, and said: 'Abu Hurairah?' I said: 'I am here O Messenger of Allah!' He said: 'Come along.' He continued and I followed him, he entered his house, so I sought permission to enter, and he permitted me. He found a bowl of milk and said: 'Where did this milk come from?' It was said: 'It was a gift to us from so – and – so.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'O Abu Hurairah' I said: 'I am here O Messenger of Allah!' He said: 'Go to the people of As-Suffah to invite them.' - Now, they were the guests of the people of Islam, they had nothing of people nor wealth to rely upon. Whenever some charity was brought to him, he would send it to them without using any of it. And when a gift was given to him ﷺ, he would send for them to participate and share with him in it. I became upset about that, and I said (to myself): 'What good will this bowl be among the people of As-Suffah and I am the one bringing it to them?' Then he ordered me to circulate it among them (So I wondered) what of it would reach me from it, and I hoped that I would get from it what would satisfy me. But I would certainly not neglect to obey Allah and obey His Messenger, so I went to them and invited them. When they entered upon him they sat down. He said: 'Abu Hurairah, take the bowl and give it to them.' So I gave it to a man who drank his fill, then he gave it to another one, until it ended up with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and all of the people had drank their fill. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took the bowl, put it on his hand,then raised his head. He smiled and said: 'Abu Hurairah, drink.' So I drank, then he said: 'Drink.' I kept drinking and he kept on saying, 'Drink.' Then I said: 'By the One Who sent you with the truth! I have no more space for it.' So he took the bowl and praised Allah, mentioned His Name and drank.'” (Sahih) (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2477)

[Machine] What we have is better for them, so they agreed until they carried Jabalah and Asma and left Zaid. Then a group of horses from Tihamah, from the Banu Fazara, attacked Tayyi and captured Zaid, and they took him to the market of Ukaz. The Prophet ﷺ saw him before he was sent and said to Khadijah, "O Khadijah, I saw a boy in the market with qualities like Kit and Kait; he has intelligence, good manners, and beauty. If I had wealth, I would buy him." So Khadijah commanded Waraqah bin Nawfal to buy him from her wealth. She said, "O Muhammad, give me this boy as a gift from yourself." The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Khadijah, I only want to adopt him." She agreed, and she raised and adopted him. He was called Zaid bin Muhammad. Then a man from the tribe of Hayy saw Zaid and recognized him, and he said, "Are you Zaid bin Harithah?" Zaid said, "No, I am Zaid bin Muhammad." The man said, "No, you are Zaid bin Harithah, from the lineage of your father and your uncles, Kit and Kait. They have exhausted themselves and spent their wealth for your sake." Then Zaid recited a poem expressing his love for his people. Harithah wept and did not know what to do, whether Zaid was still alive or not. Oh, by Allah, I do not know, but I ask, O Sahl, is the plain easier for you or the mountain? Oh, I wish I knew if you would return to me one day. My sorrow for you is so long, and I wonder, will you ever come back to me? I will strive and never tire of walking the mountains, and I will not tire of making tawaf or the camels. Perhaps death will visit me before you do. Every soul will taste death, so may Allah bless me with a good family and a prosperous offspring. Harithah came to him when he was with his brothers and family in Makkah. He went to the Prophet ﷺ and found him sitting in the courtyard of the Kaaba with a group of his companions, including Zaid bin Harithah. When they saw Zaid, they recognized him, and he recognized them. However, they did not rise in reverence for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. They said, "O Zaid!" But he did not respond. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Who are these, O Zaid?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah, this is my father, my uncle, my brother, and these are my relatives." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Go and greet them, O Zaid." So Zaid stood and greeted them, and they greeted him. Then they said to him, "Come with us, O Zaid." He replied, "I only desire the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; I do not desire anyone else in return." They said, "O Muhammad, we will give you this boy as compensation, so name your price." The Prophet ﷺ said, "I ask you to bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and that I am the final Prophet and Messenger, and that you accept Islam. They agreed and accepted Islam. Then they said, "What

[Machine] He gathered them all that day, and it was nothing but existence until the Day of Resurrection. Then He made them souls, then formed them and gave them the power of speech. And He took from them the covenant and the pledge, and He made them testify upon themselves, "Am I not your Lord?" They said, "Yes, we testify." [This] lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection, "Indeed, we were unaware of this." Or [lest] you say, "It was only that our fathers associated [others in worship] before, and we were but descendants after them. Then would You destroy us for what the falsifiers have done?" [Allah] said, "I swear by Myself, and I bear witness on you all the heavens and the earths, and I bear witness upon your father Adam, 'Am I not your Lord?' They said, 'Yes, we testify.' [This] lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection, 'Indeed, we were unaware of this.' Or lest you should say, 'It was only that our fathers associated [others in worship] before, and we were but descendants after them. Then would You destroy us for what the falsifiers have done?' He said, "Indeed, I bear witness over all of you that I am free from whatever you associate with Me. Indeed, the Messengers will come to you with My reminders and My covenant, and they will present My Books to you." They said, "We bear witness that You are our Lord and our God. You have no Lord besides You, and we have no god besides You." And their father Adam raised them, so He looked at them, and He saw richness and poverty, beauty and otherwise. He said, "My Lord, if You had balanced Your servants." He said, "I love to return the gratitude." And among them were seen prophets like bright lamps. They were given a separate covenant in regards to Prophet-hood and Messengership. This is the saying of Allah, the Exalted, "[And mention] when We took from the prophets their covenant and from you and from Noah." (33:7) And His saying, "So direct your face toward the religion, inclining to truth. [Adhere to] the fitrah of Allah upon which He has created [all] people. No change should there be in the creation of Allah." (30:30) And His saying, "This is a warner of the warners of old." (53:56) And His saying, "And We had not found for most of them any covenant, but indeed, We found most of them defiantly disobedient." (7:102) And His saying, "Then We sent following their footsteps Our messengers and followed [them] with Jesus, the son of Mary, and gave him the Gospel. And We placed in the hearts of those who followed him compassion and mercy and monasticism, which they innovated; We did not prescribe it for them except that they did so seeking the approval of Allah." So they did not observe it with due observance. (57:27) He knew in His knowledge those who would deny what He would affirm and those who would affirm what He would deny. So the soul of 'Isa was among those souls to which the covenant was taken in the time of Adam. And that soul was then sent to Maryam when He said, "Settle in a place of worship wherein the sun does not rise, and you take a veil from them." So We sent to her Our soul, and it manifested to her in the form of a well-built man. (19:17) Until His saying, "A determined appointment." (19:21) She conceived. He, who spoke to her, was the soul of 'Isa, peace be upon him. Abu Ja'far narrated to me that Ar-Rabi' bin Anas narrated to him from Abu Al-'Aliyah from Ubayy bin Ka'b who said, "He entered it."

[Machine] He said, "The Prophet ﷺ was not supported in any place as he was on the day of Uhud." He said, "We denied that, so Ibn Abbas said, 'Between me and whoever denied that is the Book of Allah, the Exalted and Glorious.' Indeed, Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, says about the day of Uhud, 'And Allah had certainly fulfilled His promise to you when you were killing the enemy by His permission.'" [Surah Al Imran, 152]. Ibn Abbas says that "killing" here means fighting. He also says, "Until when you lost courage and fell to disputing about the matter and disobeyed after He had shown you that which you love. Among you are some who desire this world, and among you are some who desire the Hereafter. Then He turned you back from them [defeated] that He might test you. And He has already forgiven you. And Allah is full of bounty to the believers." [Surah Al Imran, 152]. He meant by this the archers, for the Prophet ﷺ stationed them in a specific place and then said, 'Protect our backs. If you see us being killed, do not come to our aid, and if you see us gaining booty, do not partake in it.' So when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gained booty and made permissible the property of the polytheists, the archers uncovered themselves and entered into the booty, holding one another's fingers. They were surprised by the polytheists who began to attack the Muslims, resulting in the death of many Muslims. The Prophet ﷺ and his companions fought until seven or nine of the leaders of the polytheists were killed. The Muslims fought by the mountain and did not reach where people said the battle took place, as it was beneath the Hudaybiyya. Shaytan shouted, 'Muhammad is killed,' and they did not suspect that it was true until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ emerged among them, walking in a state of apprehension. When he saw him, they recognized him by the way he walked. This brought them great joy, as though nothing had befallen them. He then moved away from them, saying, 'The anger of Allah has increased upon a people who killed their Prophet.' He said again, 'O Allah, surely they cannot overpower us.' Then Abu Sufyan shouted from the bottom of the mountain, 'O Hubal, O Hubal, where is the son of Abu Kabsha, where is the son of Abu Quhafa, where is the son of Al-Khattab?' Umar said, 'O Messenger of Allah, should I answer him?' He said, 'Yes.' So when Abu Sufyan shouted, 'O Hubal,' Umar said, 'Allah is the Most High and the Most Great.' Abu Sufyan said, 'The day of Badr was a day of mutual hostility and fighting.' Umar said, 'It is not the same, our dead are in Paradise while your dead are in the Fire.' Abu Sufyan said, 'Indeed, you will find in your dead a similar number. However, that was not according to our plan.' Then he encountered the zeal of ignorance and said, 'If that is the case, then we did not like it.'"

[Machine] Sumurah, while I was a young boy from the Ansar, we were throwing objects for ourselves during the time of the Prophet ﷺ. When the sun reached the height of two or three lances above the horizon, it became darkened and shone like a firefly. One of us said to his companion, "Let's go to the mosque, and I swear by Allah that this matter of the sun will be mentioned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in his Ummah." So we went to the mosque, and we found the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing among the people. He came forward and led us in prayer, the longest prayer he ever prayed with us, in which we could not even hear his voice. Then he performed ruku (bowing) with us, the longest ruku he ever performed with us, in which we could not hear his voice. Then he performed sujud (prostration) with us, the longest sujud he ever performed with us, in which we could not hear his voice. Then he did the same in the second raka'ah, and when the sun reappeared during the second raka'ah, he sat down. Then he said, "O people, indeed I am only a human being and the Messenger of Allah. But I remind you of Allah, if you know that I have not conveyed any of the messages of my Lord, which you informed me of, until I convey them as they should be conveyed. And if you know that I have conveyed the messages of my Lord, which you informed me of." Then the people stood up and said, "We bear witness that you have conveyed the messages of your Lord and advised your Ummah, and you have fulfilled what is upon you." Then they fell silent, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "As for what follows, there are men who claim that the eclipse of this sun, the eclipse of this moon, and the disappearance of these stars from their stations cause the death of great men from the people of the earth. Indeed, they are liars, but they are signs from the signs of Allah by which He tests His servants. Let the one among them who will repent come forward." By Allah, since I started praying, I have not met any of you in your current worldly and hereafter conditions. And by Allah, the Hour will not be established until thirty liars will appear, the last of them being the lame Dajjal. He will have a deformed eye like the eye of Abi Yahya, a sheikh from the Ansar. And when he appears, he will claim that he is Allah. Whoever believes in him, verifies his claim, and follows him, then none of his past deeds will benefit him. And whoever denies him and rejects him, then none of his past deeds will harm him. Indeed, he will appear on the entire earth except for the Haram and Bayt al-Maqdis. And indeed, he will besiege the believers in Bayt al-Maqdis, and they will shake violently. Then Jesus, the son of Mary, will descend among them, and Allah will defeat him and his soldiers, to the extent that the black stone will call out, "O believer! This is a disbeliever hiding behind me, so come and kill him." He said, "But that will not happen until you see matters becoming widespread and severe. You will ask each other, 'Did your Prophet ﷺ mention anything about this?' And until mountains move from their places and continue to move until the seizing (of souls) comes. He pointed with his hand, and he said, "Then he delivered another sermon, in which he mentioned what he mentioned before and did not delay it or precede it."

[Machine] "Do not be intimidated by them, for they will return. So We revealed (to Ali) and when it was morning, one who looked like me (Ali) went out, and when he went out, I reminded him (the people) of that incident. Ali said, 'Do not be scared by their presence, for their command is insignificant.' Ali said, 'Do not initiate the fight with them until they initiate it with you.' They sat on their knees and we prepared for battle, and we used our shields as protection. They approached us and handed us spears, and then they attacked us with arrows. Then they got closer and they picked up swords to attack us until they wanted to attack us with their swords. Then, a man from the Banu Abdi Qays tribe named Sa'sa'a bin Sohan called out three times and they asked him what he wanted. He said, 'I remind you to have God in your hearts and to fight on the land that will bear disrespect against its people. I remind you to leave behind the religion, as it will leave you behind like an arrow from a bow.' When we saw that they had placed their swords on us, Ali said, 'Get up, with the blessing of Allah the Almighty.' It was not even midday when we were scattered everywhere and we escaped, and whoever ran, ran. Ali thanked Allah and said, 'My friend (the Prophet) informed me that the leader of the enemy was a man whose hands were marked with hair, like the tail of a lizard. Go and find him.' So we looked for him and we could not find him. Then, an man from the people of Kufa came and said, 'Here he is.' Ali said, 'Allah is the Greatest, by Allah, no one will inform you about his father's lineage being the King.' People started saying, 'This is a King.' Ali said, 'Whose son is he?' They said, 'We do not know.' Then, a man from the people of Kufa came and said, 'I know this man. I was offering cattle as a dowry for a certain man from Banu Fulan, a sheikh from Banu Fulan, and I put easy-to-wear ornaments on them. When I turned my back, the cow ran away, and he called me and said, 'Oh boy, look, the cow has run away.' So I said, 'I see an image of a sunset or a sheep.' He got closer to us, and Ali said, 'Who is that man?' The people said, 'This is the one.' Ali said, 'I swear by Allah, this man has come to you from Yamama to worship Allah in the mosque of Kufa. He worshipped Allah there and called the people until they gathered around him.' Ali said, 'My friend (the Prophet) informed me that these are three brothers from the Jinn. This is the eldest, the second has a large following, and the third one is weak.' Muslim narrated this hadith in Sahih al-Masnad in an abbreviated manner, and it is an authentic hadith."

[Machine] As the people of Yemen approached, Umar began to gather companions and asked them, "Is there anyone among you from Qaran?" Until a man from Qaran came to him and Umar asked, "Who are you?" They replied, "I am Qaran." Umar then held him by the collar and recognized him by his distinctive appearance. Umar asked him, "What is your name?" He replied, "My name is Uwais." Umar asked him, "Do you have a mother?" He said, "Yes." Umar asked, "Do you have any white spots on your body?" He replied, "Yes, I prayed to Allah to remove it from my body except for the size of a dirham, so that I may remember my Lord with it." Umar said to him, "Ask forgiveness for me." He replied, "You are more deserving to ask forgiveness for me. You are the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." Umar said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'The best follower is a man named Uwais Al-Qarni. He has a mother and he has white spots on his body. He supplicated to his Lord, and he was cured except for the size of a dirham on his shin, which he uses to remember his Lord with.'" Umar then requested forgiveness from him. Uwais went among the people, but Umar did not know where he went. Uwais arrived in Kufa and we used to gather in a circle to remember Allah, and he would sit among us. When he mentioned something, it remained fixed in our hearts, and no other speech could take its place. One day, I lost him, so I asked my companion, "What happened to the man who used to join us?" He said, "Who are you referring to?" I asked, "Who is that?" He said, "That is Uwais Al-Qarni." I then found out where he was staying and I went to see him. I said to him, "May Allah have mercy on you, where have you been and why did you leave us?" He replied, "I did not have a garment, so it prevented me from coming to you." I then took off my own garment and threw it to him. He threw it back to me saying, "I delayed wearing it for an hour." Then he said, "If I had taken this garment from you and worn it, my people would have seen me in it, and they would have thought, 'This is the one they accuse of being a self-indulgent.' So I took off my own garment and threw it back to him and said, "Leave until I hear what they say." So he wore the garment and we left together. When he passed by his people's gathering, they said, "Look at this self-indulgent one, he has not stopped with anyone until he deceived him and took his garment." I said to him, "Are you not ashamed? Why did you harm him?" By Allah, I presented it to him and he refused to accept it." Uwais replied, "Delegations from various Arab tribes came to Umar and their leader said to him, 'O Umar bin Khattab, is there anyone among you from Qaran?' Umar asked him, 'Are you their leader?' He replied, 'Yes, I am.' Umar then asked him, 'Do you know a man from Qaran named Uwais who has such and such characteristics?' The leader of the delegation said, 'O Amir-ul-Mu'minin, why do you mention this person and his matters?' Umar said to him, 'May your mother be bereaved of you! I encountered him two or three times.' Then Umar said, 'When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned him to us, he said, 'A man named Uwais bin 'Amir from Qaran will come to you, and he has such and such characteristics.' When the man came, he did not start with anyone before Umar, so he went to him and asked for forgiveness. Umar asked him, 'What prayer have you made for me?' He replied, 'Umar said such and such to me.' Umar said, 'I am not asking for forgiveness for you until you make three promises.' Uwais asked, 'What are they?' Umar said, 'Do not afflict me with what remains for you, and do not inform anyone about what Umar said to you, and forget the third one.'"

[Machine] "My father was from the sons of Asawira, and I used to differ with him regarding the book. I had two young boys with me, and when they returned from the book, they entered upon a priest, and I entered with them. The priest said to them, 'Did I not forbid you from coming with anyone?' I said to him, 'I differ with him until he loves me more than them.' He said to me, 'O Salman, if your family asks you who detained you, say it was your teacher. And if your teacher asks you who detained you, say it was your family.' He also said to me, 'O Salman, I want to convert.' I said to him, 'I am with you.' So he converted and entered a village where a woman used to differ with him. When he arrived, he said to me, 'O Salman, dig.' So I dug and found a jar of money. He poured it on my chest and began hitting his own chest, saying, 'Woe to the priest!' Then he died, and I blew into his mouth. The priests and monks gathered and attended to him. He said to them, 'I had intended to keep the money, but Allah diverted my attention from it. When the priests and monks gathered, I said to them, 'He left some money behind.' So some young men from the village took it and buried him. I said to the priests, 'Show me a knowledgeable person whom I can join.' They said, 'We do not know anyone on earth who is more knowledgeable than a man who used to go to Bayt al-Maqdis. If you leave now, you will find his donkey at the door of Bayt al-Maqdis.' So I went and found the donkey. I sat beside it until he came out, and I told him my story. He said, 'Stay here until I return to you,' but I never saw him again. He used to go to Bayt al-Maqdis only once a year in that month. When he returned, I asked him, 'What did you do with me?' He said, 'Do you still have it?' I said, 'Yes.' He said, 'I do not know anyone on earth who is more knowledgeable than an orphan who left Tihama and whom you would meet if you leave now.' I left and found him. He raised me to a certain place and then lowered me to another place. I encountered a tribe of Arabs who rejected me and sold me until I arrived in Medina. I heard them mentioning the Prophet and that life there was good. So I asked my family to give me a gift for a day, and they did. I left and saved some money, and then I brought it to him and placed it in front of him. He asked, 'What is this?' I said, 'It is charity.' He said to his companions, 'Eat.' But he refused to eat. I said, 'This is only one, and I waited as Allah willed.' Then I asked my family for a gift for a day, and they gave it to me. I left and saved some money, and then I brought him something better than that. I cooked food and brought it to him. He placed it in front of him and asked, 'What is this?' I said, 'It is a gift.' He said, 'In the name of Allah.' Then he said to his companions, 'Take it and eat with me.' I stood behind him, and he placed his cloak in front of him. I saw the seal of prophethood on the back of his right shoulder, which resembled an egg with the color of his skin. I said, 'I bear witness that you are the Messenger of Allah.' He asked, 'What is that?' I told him, and then I asked him, 'O Messenger of Allah, will the priest enter Paradise? He claims that you are a prophet.' He said, 'No one will enter Paradise except a Muslim soul.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, he informed me that you are a prophet.' He said, 'No one will enter Paradise except a Muslim soul.'"

[Machine] The people, O Messenger of Allah, asked: "Will we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Do you have any difficulty in seeing the sun when there are no clouds?" They replied, "No, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Then, do you have any difficulty in seeing the moon on a full moon night when there are no clouds?" They replied, "No, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Indeed, you will see Him on the Day of Resurrection just as you have no difficulty in seeing the sun and the moon in their clear skies. Allah will gather the people on the Day of Resurrection and say, 'Whoever used to worship something, let him follow it.' So, those who used to worship the sun will follow the sun, and those who used to worship the moon will follow the moon, and those who used to worship idols will follow the idols. Then, the remainder of this Ummah will remain with their hypocrites. Allah will come to them in a form that they will recognize and will say, 'I am your Lord.' They will say, 'We seek refuge with Allah from you. This is our place until our Lord comes to us.' When our Lord comes to them, they will recognize Him and say, 'You are our Lord.' But a bridge will be placed over Hellfire." The Prophet ﷺ said, "I will be the first one to cross it. The invocation of the Messengers on that day will be, 'O Allah, grant safety, grant safety,' and with me will be my followers, resembling the boughs of a tree (or the sa'adān)?" It was asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the boughs of a tree (sa'adān)?" He replied, "Do you know the extent of the boughs of a tree?" They said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "It is like that, but Allah Alone knows its real extent. Then, the people will go on being examined and interrogated regarding their deeds. Some of them will be saved by their deeds, while others will be ruined, Many of those who will be ruined will be subject to punishment and thus will be purified (through the fire of Hell), until Allah, the Lord of the worlds, will come to them and ask, 'Whoever said, 'La ilaha illâ Allah' (None has the right to be worshiped but Allah), bring all his good deeds to reward him.' They will come forward with all their good deeds, but the one who will weigh most heavily in the balance, will be his testimony of having said, 'La ilaha illâ Allah.' The person will be saved (from the Hellfire) and laughed at." Allah will then say, "Go and enter the Paradise." The person will keep asking Allah for the fulfillment of his desires, so Allah will remind him and say, "Didn't you assert that you would not ask for anything other than what you have already been given? Woe to you, O son of Adam! How treacherous you were!" The person will then invoke Allah again and again, and Allah will say, "If I give you that, will you then ask for anything else?" The person will say, "No, by Your Majesty! I shall not ask for anything else." Allah will fulfill his desire and let him enter Paradise. The person will be so contented that he will remain quiet and will not stand up (for any need), but Allah will prompt him and say, "Do you want anything else?" Until all his desires and wishes will be fulfilled, then Allah will say, "This is for you, and so is ten times the like of it, and a similar palace, the like of which you have seen." Abu Sa`id (a companion of the Prophet) added, "If you wish, you can recite this verse from the Holy Quran: 'For those who have done good is the best reward and even more.'" (10:26)

النَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ نَرَى رَبَّنَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَلْ تُضَارُّونَ فِي الشَّمْسِ لَيْسَ دُونَهَا سَحَابٌ؟ » قَالُوا لَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «فَهَلْ تُضَارُّونَ فِي الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ لَيْسَ دُونَهُ سَحَابٌ؟ » قَالُوا لَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «فَإِنَّكُمْ تَرَوْنَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَذَلِكَ يَجْمَعُ اللَّهُ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ شَيْئًا فَلْيَتَّبِعْهُ فَيَتَّبِعُ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ الشَّمْسَ الشَّمْسَ وَمَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ الْقَمَرَ الْقَمَرَ وَيَتَّبِعُ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ الطَّوَاغِيتَ الطَّوَاغِيتَ وَتَبْقَى هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةُ فِيهَا مُنَافِقُوهَا فَيَأْتِيهِمُ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا فِي غَيْرِ صُورَتِهِ الَّتِي يَعْرِفُونَ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا رَبُّكُمْ فَيَقُولُونَ نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْكَ هَذَا مَقَامُنَا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَنَا رَبُّنَا فَإِذَا جَاءَنَا رَبُّنَا عَرَفْنَاهُ قَالَ فَيَأْتِيهِمْ فِي الصُّورَةِ الَّتِي يَعْرِفُونَ فَيَقُولُ أَنَا رَبُّكُمْ فَيَقُولُونَ أَنْتَ رَبُّنَا وَيُضْرَبُ جِسْرٌ عَلَى جَهَنَّمَ» قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «فَأَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يَجُوزُهُ وَدَعْوَةُ الرُّسُلِ يَوْمَئِذٍ اللَّهُمَّ سَلِّمْ سَلِّمْ وَبِهِ كَلَالِيبُ مِثْلُ شَوْكِ السَّعْدَانِ هَلْ تَدْرُونَ شَوْكَ السَّعْدَانِ؟ » قَالُوا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «فَإِنَّهَا مِثْلُ شَوْكِ السَّعْدَانِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَعْلَمُ قَدْرَ عِظَمِهَا إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَتَخْطَفُ النَّاسَ بِأَعْمَالِهِمْ فَمِنْهُمُ الْمُوبَقُ بِعَمَلِهِ وَمِنْهُمُ الْمُخَرْدَلُ ثُمَّ يَنْجُو حَتَّى إِذَا فَرَغَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْقَضَاءِ بَيْنَ عِبَادِهِ وَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُخْرِجَ مِنَ النَّارِ مَنْ أَرَادَ مِمَّنْ كَانَ يَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَمَرَ اللَّهُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ أَنْ يُخْرِجُوهُمْ فَيَعْرِفُونَهُمْ بِعَلَامَةِ آثَارِ السُّجُودِ قَالَ وَحَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّارِ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ مِنِ ابْنِ آدَمَ أَثَرَ السُّجُودِ قَالَ فَيُخْرِجُونَهُمْ قَدِ امْتُحِشُوا فَيُصَبُّ عَلَيْهِمْ مَاءٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ مَاءُ الْحَيَاةِ فَيَنْبُتُونَ نَبَاتَ الْحَبَّةِ فِي حَمِيلِ السَّيْلِ قَالَ وَيَبْقَى رَجُلٌ مُقْبِلٌ بِوَجْهِهِ عَلَى النَّارِ فَيَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ قَدْ قَشَبَنِي رِيحُهَا وَأَحْرَقَنِي ذَكَاؤُهَا فَاصْرِفْ وَجْهِي عَنِ النَّارِ فَلَا يَزَالُ يَدْعُو فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا فَلَعَلِّي إِنْ أَعْطَيْتُكَ ذَلِكَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهُ فَيَقُولُ لَا وَعِزَّتِكَ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهُ فَيَصْرِفُ وَجْهَهُ عَنِ النَّارِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يَا رَبِّ قَرِّبْنِي إِلَى بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَقُولُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا أَلَيْسَ قَدْ زَعَمْتَ أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهُ؟ وَيْلَكَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَا أَغْدَرَكَ فَلَا يَزَالُ يَدْعُو فَيَقُولُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا فَلَعَلَّكَ إِنْ أَعْطَيْتُكَ ذَلِكَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهُ فَيَقُولُ لَا وَعِزَّتِكَ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ غَيْرَهُ وَيُعْطِي اللَّهَ مِنْ عُهُودٍ وَمَوَاثِيقَ أَنْ لَا يَسْأَلَهُ غَيْرَهُ فَيُقَرِّبُهُ إِلَى بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ فَلَمَّا قَرَّبَهُ مِنْهَا انْفَهَقَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ فَإِذَا رَأَى مَا فِيهَا سَكَتَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَسْكُتَ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ أَدْخِلْنِي الْجَنَّةَ فَيَقُولُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا أَلَيْسَ قَدْ زَعَمْتَ أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَنِي غَيْرَهُ وَيْلَكَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ مَا أَغْدَرَكَ فَيَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ لَا تَجْعَلْنِي أَشْقَى خَلْقِكَ قَالَ فَلَا يَزَالُ يَدْعُو حَتَّى يَضْحَكَ جَلَّ وَعَلَا فَإِذَا ضَحِكَ مِنْهُ أَذِنَ لَهُ بِالدُّخُولِ دُخُولِ الْجَنَّةِ فَإِذَا دَخَلَ قِيلَ لَهُ تَمَنَّ كَذَا وَتَمَنَّ كَذَا فَيَتَمَنَّى حَتَّى تَنْقَطِعَ بِهِ الْأَمَانِيُّ فَيَقُولُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا هُوَ لَكَ وَمِثْلُهُ مَعَهُ» قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «هُوَ لَكَ وَعَشَرَةُ أَمْثَالِهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ حَفِظْتُ » هُوَ لَكَ وَمِثْلُهُ مَعَهُ وَذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ آخِرُ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ دُخُولًا «

I went out with 'Ubaidullah bin ʿAdi Al-Khaiyar. When we reached Hims (i.e. a town in Syria), 'Ubaidullah bin ʿAdi said (to me), "Would you like to see Wahshi so that we may ask him about the killing of Hamza?" I replied, "Yes." Wahshi used to live in Hims. We enquired about him and somebody said to us, "He is that in the shade of his palace, as if he were a full water skin." So we went up to him, and when we were at a short distance from him, we greeted him and he greeted us in return. 'Ubaidullah was wearing his turban and Wahshi could not see except his eyes and feet. 'Ubaidullah said, "O Wahshi! Do you know me?" Wahshi looked at him and then said, "No, by Allah! But I know that ʿAdi bin Al-Khiyar married a woman called Um Qital, the daughter of Abu Al-Is, and she delivered a boy for him at Mecca, and I looked for a wet nurse for that child. (Once) I carried that child along with his mother and then I handed him over to her, and your feet resemble that child's feet." Then 'Ubaidullah uncovered his face and said (to Wahshi), "Will you tell us (the story of) the killing of Hamza?" Wahshi replied "Yes, Hamza killed Tuaima bin ʿAdi bin Al-Khaiyar at Badr (battle) so my master, Jubair bin Mutʿim said to me, 'If you kill Hamza in revenge for my uncle, then you will be set free." When the people set out (for the battle of Uhud) in the year of 'Ainain ..'Ainain is a mountain near the mountain of Uhud, and between it and Uhud there is a valley.. I went out with the people for the battle. When the army aligned for the fight, Siba' came out and said, 'Is there any (Muslim) to accept my challenge to a duel?' Hamza bin ʿAbdul Muttalib came out and said, 'O Siba'. O Ibn Um Anmar, the one who circumcises other ladies! Do you challenge Allah and His Apostle?' Then Hamza attacked and killed him, causing him to be non-extant like the bygone yesterday. I hid myself under a rock, and when he (i.e. Hamza) came near me, I threw my spear at him, driving it into his umbilicus so that it came out through his buttocks, causing him to die. When all the people returned to Mecca, I too returned with them. I stayed in (Mecca) till Islam spread in it (i.e. Mecca). Then I left for Taif, and when the people (of Taif) sent their messengers to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I was told that the Prophet ﷺ did not harm the messengers; So I too went out with them till I reached Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When he saw me, he said, 'Are you Wahshi?' I said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Was it you who killed Hamza?' I replied, 'What happened is what you have been told of.' He said, 'Can you hide your face from me?' So I went out when Messenger of Allah ﷺ died, and Musailamah Al-Kadhdhab appeared (claiming to be a prophet). I said, 'I will go out to Musailamah so that I may kill him, and make amends for killing Hamza. So I went out with the people (to fight Musailamah and his followers) and then famous events took place concerning that battle. Suddenly I saw a man (i.e. Musailamah) standing near a gap in a wall. He looked like an ash-colored camel and his hair was dishevelled. So I threw my spear at him, driving it into his chest in between his breasts till it passed out through his shoulders, and then an Ansari man attacked him and struck him on the head with a sword. ʿAbdullah bin ʿUmar said, 'A slave girl on the roof of a house said: Alas! The chief of the believers (i.e. Musailamah) has been killed by a black slave." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4072)

[Machine] "He (referring to Ali) has arrived in the city along with the people of Abiyyat from your tribe. And we have commanded them to surrender, so divide it among them. So I said, 'O Amir al-Mu'minin (Commander of the Faithful), order someone else to do that.' He replied, 'Take it, O man.' He said, 'While I was in this condition, their leader came and spoke to me kindly. He said, 'This is Uthman, Abdul Rahman bin Auf, Saad bin Abi Waqqas, and Zubair bin al-Awwam. I do not know if Talhah is there or not, or should they seek your permission on behalf of anyone?' He said, 'Give them permission.' He said, 'Then he waited for an hour. Then he came and said, 'Abbas and Ali seek permission to come to you.' He said, 'Give them permission.' When Abbas came in, he said, 'O Amir al-Mu'minin, decide between me and this person (Ali).' They both immediately began to quarrel about the property that Allah had bestowed upon His Messenger from the wealth of Banu al-Nadhir. The people said, 'Decide between them, O Amir al-Mu'minin, and relieve each of them from their opponent, for their dispute has been going on for too long.' Umar said, 'I adjure the two of you by Allah, Whose permission the heavens and the earth need for their existence, do you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "We do not leave behind any inheritance, whatever we leave is for charity"?'They said, 'Indeed, he said that.' Then he repeated to them the same words. They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Then I inform you about this surplus. Indeed, Allah, the Exalted, allotted something specifically to His Prophet ﷺ that He did not give to anyone else. He said, "And what Allah gave as booty to His Messenger from them - you did not spur for it [in horse] or for camel - any acquisition [ajfa] [as that of war booty] is exclusively for the Messenger - Allah's pleasure be upon him. And you have expended no small [effort] or burdened ‘to force ] in horse] but Allah has endeared to His Messenger and has hastened an union between the Muhajireen [Emigrants] and the Ansaar [Helpers] who supported him." (Quran, 59:6) This surplus of the booty was specifically for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and, I swear by Allah, you did not get any of it, nor did you have any preference over it. It was distributed among you and spent on you, until what remained was what remains (with me) from the money. He would spend on his dependents for a year, and sometimes a year's provisions would hold him back, and then he would treat whatever remained as the property of Allah. When Allah took away His Messenger ﷺ , Abu Bakr said, 'I am the successor of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ after him, so I will do in it what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr did.' Then it came to me after Abu Bakr for two years during my period of leadership, so I did in it what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr did. And when you came to me, both of you came to me, Abbas seeking his share of inheritance from his nephew, and Ali asking me for his wife's inheritance. So I said to both of you, 'I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "We do not leave behind any inheritance, whatever we leave is for charity."' Then it occurred to me that I should give it to both of you. So I took your pledge and oath with Allah that you would act in it as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr did. When I took it, you told me to give it to you based on something other than that, and by Him in Whose Hand is my soul, Who raises the heavens and lowers the mountains, I will not decide between you in this matter except with this judgment. If you both cannot do it (i.e., settle the matter), then hand it over to me.' So Ali prevailed over him and it remained with Ali. Then it was in the hands of Hasan bin Ali, then in the hands of Husain bin Ali, then in the hands of Ali bin Husain, then in the hands of Al-Hasan bin Hasan, then in the hands of Zaid bin Hasan. Ma'mar said: Then it was in the hands of Abdullah bin Hasan."

[Machine] I heard Fatimah bint Qays saying: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ascended the pulpit and praised Allah and glorified Him. Then he said, 'I warn you against the Dajjal (the Antichrist), for no prophet was sent before me who did not warn his nation against him. He is indeed among you, and indeed the sign of a restoration of a red hair, which she (the story-teller) mentioned. They added, 'Tell us'! She replied, 'I am not informing you about anything, neither am I asking you, but go to the monastery, for there is a man who yearns to meet you.' So they went to the monastery and there they found a man chained between two iron columns. The Prophet asked, 'Where are you from and who are you?' They replied, 'We are from the people of the Levant.' He asked, 'Who are you?' They replied, 'We are Arabs.' He asked, 'What are the Arabs doing?' They said, 'They have among them a Prophet in the land of Taimah.' He asked, 'What are the people doing?' They replied, 'Some of them believe him and some of them deny him.' He said, 'If they believe in him and follow him, it is good for them, if they only knew.' Then he asked, 'What are your houses made of?' They replied, 'They are made of hair and wool spun by our women.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity! Then he asked, 'What has happened to Tabariyyah?' They replied, 'Its waters flow in all directions and whoever comes to it can take from it.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity!' Then he asked, 'What has happened to your spring Zughar?' They replied, 'Its waters flow in all directions and whoever comes to it can take from it.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity!' Then he asked, 'What has happened to the date-palm of Baysan?' They replied, 'Its fruit is taken.' He struck his thigh with his hand and said, 'Behold, what a pity! By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, if I have been released from these fetters, I would have destroyed every house of Baysan except the mosques of Makkah and Al-Madinah, as they hinder the Dajjal from entering them until the Day of Resurrection.'"

Abu Bakr bought a saddle from ‘Azib for thirteen dirhams, then Abu Bakr said to 'Azib. Tell al-Bara to carry it to my house. He said: No, not until you tell us what happened when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out and you were with him. Abu Bakr said: We started our journey at the beginning of the night and we hastened for one day and one night, until it was midday. I looked into the distance to see whether there was anywhere to seek shade, and I saw a rock, so I went to it and it had a little shade. I smoothed the ground for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and spread a garment of camel hair for him, and said: Lie down and rest, O Messenger of Allah. So he lay down, and I went out to see if I could spot anyone looking for us. Then I saw a shepherd and I said: Who do you belong to, O boy? He said: To a man of Quraish. He mentioned his name and I recognised it. I said: Is there any milk in your sheep? He said: Yes | said: Will you milk some for me? He said: Yes. I told him to do that, so he caught a sheep, then I told him to brush the dust from its teat, then to brush the dust off his hands. I had a small vessel with me on the neck of which was a cloth. He milked a little bit of milk for me and I poured it into the vessel until it cooled down. Then I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When I reached him, he had already woken up. I said: Drink, O Messenger of Allah. He drank until I was pleased, then I said: Is it time to move on? So we moved on and the people were coming after us but none of them caught up with us except Suraqah bin Malik bin Ju'shum, who was riding a horse of his, I said: O Messenger of Allah, someone has caught up with us. He said: ʿDo not be afraid, for Allah is with us.ʿ When he got close to us, and there was no more between us and him then the length of a spear or two or three spears, I said: O Messenger of Allah, this pursuer has caught up with us, and I wept. He said: ʿWhy are you weeping?ʿ I said: I am not weeping for myself; rather I am weeping for you. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed against him [the pursuer] and said: “O Allah, protect us from him by whatever means You will.” Then his horse's legs sank into the solid ground up to its belly, and he fell off it. He said: O Muhammad, I know that this is because of you; pray to Allah to save me from my predicament, and by Allah I shall divert away from you any one who is behind me of those who are seeking you. Here is my quiver, take one arrow. You are going to pass by some camels and sheep of mine in such and such a place, take whatever you need from thern. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿI have no need of it.“ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed for him and he was released, and he went back to his companions. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I continued on our way until we came to Madinah, where the people met him. They came out on the road and on the roofs, and a lot of servants and children crowded the road saying: Allahu Akbar, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has come, Muhammad has come. The people disputed as to who he would stay with. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿTonight I will stay with Banun-Najjar, the maternal uncles of 'Abdul-Muttalib, to honour them thereby.” The next morning, he went where he was instructed. Al-Bara' bin 'Azib said: The first of the Muhajireen to come to us was Mus'ab bin 'Umair, the brother of Banu 'Abdud-Dar. Then Ibn Umm Maktoom, the blind man and brother of Banu Fihr, came to us. Then 'Umar bin al-Khattab, came to us with twenty riders and we said: What happened to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? He said: He is behind me. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and Abu Bakr was with him. Al-Bara said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not come until I had read some soorahs from al-Mufassal [Al-Mufassal is that portion of the Qur'an which goes from Qaf to an-Nas]. Isra'eel said: al-Bara' was one of the Ansar from Banu Harithah. (Using translation from Aḥmad 3)

اشْتَرَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ مِنْ عَازِبٍ رَحْلًا بِثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ دِرْهَمًا فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لِعَازِبٍ مُرِ الْبَرَاءَ فَلْيَحْمِلْهُ إِلَى أَهْلِي فَقَالَ لَهُ عَازِبٌ لَا حَتَّى تُحَدِّثُنِي كَيْفَ صَنَعْتَ أَنْتَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ خَرَجْتُمَا مِنْ مَكَّةَ وَالْمُشْرِكُونَ يَطْلُبُونَكُمْ؟ فَقَالَ ارْتَحَلْنَا مِنْ مَكَّةَ فَأَحْيَيْنَا لَيْلَتَنَا حَتَّى أَظْهَرْنَا وَقَامَ قَائِمُ الظَّهِيرَةِ فَرَمَيْتُ بِبَصَرِي هَلْ نَرَى ظِلًّا نَأْوِي إِلَيْهِ؟ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِصَخْرَةٍ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهَا فَإِذَا بَقِيَّةُ ظِلِّهَا فَسَوَّيْتُهُ ثُمَّ فَرَشْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ اضْطَجِعْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَاضْطَجَعَ ثُمَّ ذَهَبْتُ أَنْظُرُ هَلْ أَرَى مِنَ الطَّلَبِ أَحَدًا؟ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَاعِي غَنَمٍ يَسُوقُ غَنَمَهُ إِلَى الصَّخْرَةِ يُرِيدُ مِنْهَا مِثْلَ الَّذِي أُرِيدُ يَعْنِي الظِّلَّ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ لِمَنْ أَنْتَ يَا غُلَامُ؟ قَالَ الْغُلَامُ لِفُلَانِ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَعَرَفْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ هَلْ فِي غَنَمِكَ مِنْ لَبَنٍ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ هَلْ أَنْتَ حَالِبٌ لِي؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَمَرْتُهُ فَاعْتَقَلَ شَاةً مِنْ غَنَمِهِ وَأَمَرْتُهُ أَنْ يَنْفُضَ ضَرْعَهَا مِنَ الْغُبَارِ ثُمَّ أَمَرْتُهُ أَنْ يَنْفُضَ كَفَّيْهِ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا وَضَرَبَ إِحْدَى يَدَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى فَحَلَبَ لِي كُثْبَةً مِنْ لَبَنٍ وَقَدْ رَوَيْتُ مَعِي لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِدَاوَةً عَلَى فَمِهَا خِرْقَةٌ فَصَبَبْتُ عَلَى اللَّبَنِ حَتَّى بَرُدَ أَسْفَلُهُ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَوَافَقْتُهُ قَدِ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَقُلْتُ اشْرَبْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَشَرِبَ فَقُلْتُ قَدْ آنَ الرَّحِيلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَارْتَحَلْنَا وَالْقَوْمُ يَطْلُبُونَنَا فَلَمْ يُدْرِكْنَا أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ غَيْرُ سُرَاقَةِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ جُعْشُمٍ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لَهُ فَقُلْتُ هَذَا الطَّلَبُ قَدْ لَحِقَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَبَكَيْتُ فَقَالَ «لَا تَحْزَنْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَنَا» فَلَمَّا دَنَا مِنَّا وَكَانَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُ قِيدُ رُمْحَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثٍ قُلْتُ هَذَا الطَّلَبُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ لَحِقَنَا فَبَكَيْتُ قَالَ «مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ » قُلْتُ أَمَا وَاللَّهِ مَا عَلَى نَفْسِي أَبْكِي وَلَكِنْ أَبْكِي عَلَيْكَ فَدَعَا عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنَاهُ بِمَا شِئْتَ» قَالَ فَسَاخَتْ بِهِ فَرَسُهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَى بَطْنِهَا فَوَثَبَ عَنْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ هَذَا عَمَلُكَ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُنَجِّينِي مِمَّا أَنَا فِيهِ فَوَاللَّهِ لَأُعَمِّيَنَّ عَلَى مَنْ وَرَائِي مِنَ الطَّلَبِ وَهَذِهِ كِنَانَتِي فَخُذْ مِنْهَا سَهْمًا فَإِنَّكَ سَتَمُرُّ عَلَى إِبِلِي وَغَنَمِي فِي مَكَانِ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَخُذْ مِنْهَا حَاجَتَكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا حَاجَةَ لَنَا فِي إِبِلِكَ» وَدَعَا لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَانْطَلَقَ رَاجِعًا إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ وَمَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ لَيْلًا فَتَنَازَعَهُ الْقَوْمُ أَيُّهُمْ يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنِّي أَنْزِلُ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى بَنِي النَّجَّارِ أَخْوَالِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ أُكْرِمُهُمْ بِذَلِكَ» فَخَرَجَ النَّاسُ حِينَ قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ فِي الطُّرُقِ وَعَلَى الْبُيُوتِ مِنَ الْغِلْمَانِ وَالْخَدَمِ يَقُولُونَ جَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ انْطَلَقَ فَنَزَلَ حَيْثُ أُمِرَ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ صَلَّى نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا أَوْ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يُوَجَّهَ نَحْوَ الْكَعْبَةِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا {قَدْ نَرَى تَقَلُّبَ وَجْهِكَ فِي السَّمَاءِ فَلَنُوَلِّيَنَّكَ قِبْلَةً تَرْضَاهَا فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ} قَالَ وَقَالَ السُّفَهَاءُ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَهُمُ الْيَهُودُ {مَا وَلَّاهُمْ عَنْ قِبْلَتِهِمِ الَّتِي كَانُوا عَلَيْهَا} فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا {قُلْ لِلَّهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَالْمَغْرِبُ يَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ إِلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ} قَالَ وَصَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَجُلٌ فَخَرَجَ بَعْدَمَا صَلَّى فَمَرَّ عَلَى قَوْمٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَهُمْ رُكُوعٌ فِي صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ فَقَالَ هُوَ يَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَّهُ قَدْ وُجِّهَ نَحْوَ الْكَعْبَةِ فَانْحَرَفَ الْقَوْمُ حَتَّى تَوَجَّهُوا إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ قَالَ الْبَرَاءُ وَكَانَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ أَخُو بَنِي عَبْدِ الدَّارِ بْنِ قُصَيٍّ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ مَا فَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ هُوَ مَكَانَهُ وَأَصْحَابُهُ عَلَى أَثَرِي ثُمَّ أَتَى بَعْدَهُ عَمْرُو بْنُ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ الْأَعْمَى أَخُو بَنِي فِهْرٍ فَقُلْنَا مَا فَعَلَ مَنْ وَرَاءَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ؟ قَالَ هُمُ الْآنَ عَلَى أَثَرِي ثُمَّ أَتَانَا بَعْدَهُ عَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ وَسَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَبِلَالٌ ثُمَّ أَتَانَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ فِي عِشْرِينَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ رَاكِبًا ثُمَّ أَتَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَعْدَهُمْ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ مَعَهُ قَالَ الْبَرَاءُ فَلَمْ يَقْدَمْ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى قَرَأْتُ سُوَرًا مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ ثُمَّ خَرَجْنَا نَلْقَى الْعِيرَ فَوَجَدْنَاهُمْ قَدْ حَذِرُوا

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said while we were in Al-Medina, "I have been informed about the army of Abu Sufyan that it is approaching. Would you like us to go out to face this army in the hope that Allah may bless us with its spoils?" We replied, "Yes." So, the Prophet and we went out. After we had traveled for a day or two, he asked us, "What do you see concerning the enemy? Has news of your departure spread among them?" We replied, "No, by Allah, they do not know of our departure, nor do we have the strength to fight them. We only desire to gain the spoils." The Prophet then asked, "What do you see concerning fighting the enemy?" We replied, "The same as you, O Messenger of Allah." Al-Miqdad ibn Amr then said, "Then we should not say to you what the people of Moses said to Moses, 'Go, you and your Lord, and fight. We are sitting right here.'" So, we wished that we had said what Al-Miqdad said, even if it meant not having great wealth. Then, Allah, the Exalted, sent down (two verses) on His Messenger: 'As your Lord brought you forth from your house in truth, while a party among the believers were averse to it in dispute with you after the truth had become clear, as if they were being driven to death while they were looking on' (Quran 8:5-6). And Allah revealed, 'Indeed, I am with you, so respond to those who have believed and have trust in me. I shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike above their necks and strike all their finger joints' (Quran 8:12). And He also revealed, 'And when Allah promised you one of the two groups (of enemies) that it would be yours and you wished that the unarmed one would be yours' (Quran 8:7). The "group" referred to the enemy, while "the unarmed one" referred to the spoils of war. When we were thus promised victory over one of the two groups (of enemies), either the enemy or the spoils, it pleased us. Then, the Messenger of Allah sent a man to scout the enemy's position. He came back saying, "I saw them as blackness and I do not know." The Messenger of Allah said, "They are they, so come, let us go and meet them." So, we proceeded and found ourselves to be 313 men. The Messenger of Allah informed us of our number, so Allah blessed us with that. Then, he praised Allah and said, 'The number of soldiers for the campaign of Talut were just like this.' Then, we met the enemy and the front rows of our army attacked the front rows of theirs. The Messenger of Allah looked at them and said, 'Fight with me, fight with me!' Then the Messenger of Allah recited, 'O Allah, I ask You for Your Promise.' Ibn Rawaha said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I want to direct you by gestures.' The Messenger of Allah is the best of those who can be directed by gestures. Allah is greater than to be asked for His Promise and then abandoned. So, he took a handful of soil and tossed it into the faces of the enemy. They turned their backs and fled. Allah then revealed, 'It was not you who threw, when you threw, but it was Allah who threw' (Quran 8:17). So, we killed and captured and among those captured was the wife of Abu Sufyan. Umar said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I do not think that you should have captives until we cut our enemies down, because they might submit to their religion out of compassion for them.' The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , refrained from doing so. Then, the Messenger of Allah fell asleep and then woke up and said, 'Invoke Allah's blessings upon Umar.' So, he was invoked blessings upon. The Messenger of Allah said, 'Verily, Allah, the Exalted, has revealed: 'It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war until he has fought against the enemies in the land. You desire the fleeting goods of this worldly life, while Allah desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allah is Mighty and Wise' (Quran 8:67)'.

[Machine] Zaid bin Saanah went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day from the chambers, and Ali bin Abi Talib was with him. So a man came to him on his riding animal, like a Bedouin, and said, "O Messenger of Allah, the people of Busr have embraced Islam and entered into Islam, and I had informed them that if they embraced Islam, sustenance would come to them in abundance. But they have been afflicted with a year of drought, hardship, and scarcity of rain. So I fear, O Messenger of Allah, that they may leave Islam when they had entered into it due to greed. So if you see fit to send something to them that would assist them, then do so." So he looked at a man who was beside him and who appeared to be Ali. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, there is nothing left of mine." Zaid bin Saanah approached him and said, "O Muhammad, can you sell me a certain known amount of dates from the wall of the people of so-and-so to a specified date?" So he said, "No, O Jew, but I will sell you a certain known amount of dates to a specified date, and do not refer to it as the wall of the people of so-and-so." I said, "Yes." So he pledged allegiance to me and I released my anxiety. I gave him eighty Mithqal of gold in specified dates to a specified date, and the man took them and said, "Take this to them and assist them with it." Zaid bin Saanah said, "When it was a day or two before the appointed date, I went to him and took hold of the collar of his garment and his cloak, and I looked at him sternly and said, 'Will you not fulfill my right, O Muhammad?' By Allah, I did not recognize you when I looked at your face. His eyes were spinning in his head like planets, and then he hit me with his eye and said, 'O enemy of Allah, you speak to the Messenger of Allah with what I have not heard, and you do with him what I do not see. By the One who sent him with the truth, were it not for what I fear, I would strike your head with my sword.' And the Messenger of Allah looked at Umar in calmness and patience and then said, 'O Umar, he and I were more in need of something other than what you ordered me for good performance of duty and what you ordered him for good following. Take him away, O Umar, and give him his right and increase him twenty Sa' of dates in place of your frightening him.'" Zaid said, "So Umar took me away and gave me my right and increased me twenty Sa' of dates. So I said, 'What is this increase, O Umar?' He said, 'The Messenger of Allah has ordered me to increase you with what I frightened you with.' I said, 'And do you recognize me, O Umar?' He said, 'No, who are you?' I said, 'I am Zaid bin Saanah.'" Zaid said, "Al-Habr (Abu Bakr) said, 'By Allah, you have done with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ what I would not have done, and you have said to him what I would not have said.' I said, 'O Abu Bakr, whatever sign of prophethood was there, I recognized it in the face of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when I looked at him, except for two signs that I did not tell him about. His forbearance overcame his ignorance, and no ignorance overcame his forbearance. For I had informed him about them, so I bear witness to you, O Umar, that I have accepted Allah as my Lord, and Islam as my religion, and Muhammad as the Messenger, and I bear witness to you that half of my wealth, and indeed it is the majority of it, shall be given in charity for the Ummah of Muhammad." Umar said, "Or some among them, as you cannot handle giving it all." I said, "Or some among them." So Umar and Zaid went back to the Messenger of Allah and Zaid said, "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, and I believe in him and confirm him and pledge allegiance to him. And I have witnessed many scenes along with him." Then Zaid was martyred in the Battle of Tabuk, facing the enemy, may Allah have mercy on Zaid.

[Machine] I entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the mosque of Al-Madinah and he began saying, "Where is so and so, son of so and so?" He continued to look for them and send messages until they gathered around him. He said, "I am going to narrate a Hadith to you, so memorize it, comprehend it, and narrate it to others after me. Verily, Allah has chosen from His creation a special creation." Then he recited the verse, "Allah chooses from the angels messengers and from the people" (Quran 22:75). "A creation that will be admitted into Paradise. And indeed, I am the chosen one among you, the most beloved to me and the closest to me, just as Allah chose and established brotherhood between the angels. Stand up, O Abu Bakr." So Abu Bakr stood up and came close to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and sat down in front of him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You have a hand with me, and by it, Allah will reward you. If I were to take a close friend, I would have taken you as my close friend, but you are from me as my shirt is from my body." And he shook his shirt with his hand and then said, "Approach, O Umar." So Umar came closer, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You used to be stern with us, O Abu Hafs, so I supplicated to Allah to strengthen this religion by you or by Abu Jahl, so Allah did it with you, and you both are the most beloved to me. You will be with me at the Pond in Paradise, third among three from this Ummah." Then he moved to the side and hugged Abu Bakr, then he called Uthman and repeated the same for him. And he continuously called him until he drew closer until his knees touched the knees of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then he looked at him and after that he looked at the sky and said, "Glory be to Allah the Almighty" three times. Then he looked at Uthman and found that the buttons of his garment were open, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fastened them with his own hands and said, "Join your garments to your neck, for Allah will grant you your needs. Indeed, you have a position with the people of the heavens, that when the people drink from the Cistern, your basin will overflow with blood, and I will say, 'Who did this to you?' So you will reply, 'So and so and so and so.' This is the statement

[Machine] I heard the caller of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , calling for the congregational prayer. I left with a group of Ansar women until we reached the mosque. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , prayed the Dhuhr prayer with us, then he ascended the pulpit and faced us with a smiling face. Then he said, "By Allah, I did not gather you out of desire or fear except for a story that Tamim ad-Dari told me. He came to me, embraced Islam, and pledged his allegiance. He informed me that he rode with thirty men from Lakhm and Juzam, who were two tribes from the Arab tribes of Yemen. They encountered the sea and were captured by the waves for a month. Then the waves cast them near the sunset to an island from the islands of the sea. There they encountered a creature that resembled neither its face nor its back. We asked, "What are you, O creature?" It spoke to us by the permission of Allah with a swift and fluent tongue, saying, "I am Al-Jassasah." We asked, "And what is Al-Jassasah?" It said, "You should go to that monastery in the farthest part of the island. There is a man who is eagerly awaiting news from you." So we went to the monastery and found the greatest man we had ever seen, with a beautiful physique. His eyes were wiped as if they had kohl on them, and his hands were tied to his neck. His feet were tied with shackles. We said to him, "Who are you, O man?" He replied, "You should know that I am Al-Masih ad-Dajjal (the Anti-Christ). It will soon be announced for me to emerge, and as soon as I exit, I will step on every land of Arabia except Makkah and Madinah. Whenever I intend to approach them, an angel with a drawn sword prevents me from doing so." Abu Al-Ashhab said, "Amir said, Fatimah said: I saw the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , raising his hands until his armpits were visible. Then he said, 'Shall I not inform you of the mystery of this matter?' He repeated it three times. Then he said, 'Shall I not inform you of its location?' He repeated it three times. Then he said, 'Rather, it is in Yemen.' He repeated it three times.

[Machine] I heard my father say when the following verse was revealed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, "Indeed, Allah does not like everyone self-deluded and boastful" (Quran 57:23), the difficulty intensified for Thabit. He closed the door and started crying. He was informed about the Messenger of Allah's ﷺ, who sent for him and asked him about the hardship he was going through. Thabit explained that he was a man who loved beauty and being from a black-skinned people, he was feeling dejected. The Prophet ﷺ said, "You are not one of them. Instead, you will live well, die well, and Allah will admit you into Paradise." When Allah revealed the verse, "O you who have believed, do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet or be loud to him in speech" (Quran 49:2), Thabit started practicing it. He informed the Prophet ﷺ, who sent for him and told him that he had been too loud and that he was concerned his deeds might go to waste. The Prophet ﷺ assured him, "You are not one of them. Instead, you will live well, die well, and Allah will admit you into Paradise." When Abu Bakr mobilized the Muslims against the apostates of Al-Riddah, the Battle of Yamama, and Musaylima the Liar, Thabit bin Qais joined the campaign. They faced Musaylima and the Banu Hanifa three times, and the Muslims were defeated each time. Thabit said, "O Saeed, my servant of Abu Hudhaifa, this is not how we used to fight alongside the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." They dug a trench for themselves and fought until they were both killed. I dreamt of a Muslim man, Thabit bin Qais, who said, "Yesterday, after I was killed, a Muslim man passed by me and took a beautiful shield from me. He has his tent in the furthest part of the camp, and there is a horse tied in front of it, with a saddle placed on the horse's back." Thabit asked Saeed to inform Khalid bin Walid and ask him to collect the shield and inform the Caliph, Abu Bakr, about his debt, his share of the money, and the enslaved person who served him. He advised him not to say it was a dream. Saeed went to Khalid bin Walid and described the shield as Thabit had mentioned. He also went to Abu Bakr and informed him about what was said. After the death of Abu Bakr, his testament became known, and we do not know of anyone whose testament was carried out after their death except Thabit bin Qais bin Shammash.

[Machine] And he said, "What do you say?" So we said, "Indeed, our people worship idols, and indeed Allah has sent a Messenger to us, so we believed in him and affirmed him." So Najashi said to them, "Are they your slaves?" They said, "No." He said, "Then they are free from any debt from you?" They said, "No." He said, "So leave them alone." So we left his presence. 'Amr bin Al-Aas said, "Indeed, these people say about 'Isa (Jesus) what you do not say." He said, "If they do not say about 'Isa what I say, I will not leave them in my land for a moment of the day." He said, "So he sent for us, and his invitation was tougher on us than the first. So he said, "What does your companion say about 'Isa ibn Maryam (Jesus, son of Mary)?" So we said, "He says he is the Spirit of Allah and His word, which He bestowed upon the Virgin Mary." He said, "So he sent for them and said, "Summon this priest and this monk." So people from among them came to him, and he said, "What do you say about 'Isa ibn Maryam?" They said, "You know best." He said, "So what do you say?" Najashi took something from the ground, and said, "This is what 'Isa says. He does not exceed what these people say." Then he said to them, "Does anyone harm you?" They said, "Yes." So he commanded a caller to announce, "Whoever harms any of them will be granted an allowance of four dirhams." Then he said, "Is this enough for you?" They said, "No." So he doubled it. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ emigrated to Al-Madinah and appeared there, we said to Najashi, "Indeed, our companion has left for Al-Madinah and has appeared there, and he emigrated and killed those whom we informed you about, and we wanted to join him." So he provided us with what we needed and said, "Inform your companion of what I have done for you, and this is my Messenger with you, and I testify that there is no god but Allah, and that you are the Messenger of Allah." So tell him to seek forgiveness for me." Ja'far said, "So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up, performed ablution, then he prayed three times, 'O Allah, forgive Najashi.' And the Muslims said, 'Ameen.' Ja'far said, "I said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , 'Leave now and inform your companion about what you have seen of the Prophet ﷺ .' And the wording is that of the hadith of Muhammad bin Adam."

[Machine] I used to hate the harm that the Quraysh inflicted upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so when I thought that they were going to kill him, I left until I reached a monastery from the monasteries. The people of the monastery went to their leader and informed him. He said to them what was appropriate for him three times, and when the three passed and they saw that he did not leave, they went to their companion and informed him. He said to them, "Tell him that we have fulfilled his right as it should be for him. If he is a guardian, his guardianship has ended. If he is a relative, it has reached you that you should go to the one you are related to. If he is a merchant, he has reached you that you should go to your trade." He said, "I am neither a relative nor a merchant, and I have no part in it." So they went to him and informed him, and he said, "Indeed, he has his own affair, so ask him what his affair is." They came to him and asked him, and he said, "No, by Allah, except that I am in the village of Ibrahim, and my cousin claims to be a prophet, so his people harmed him, and I feared that they would kill him. I left because I did not witness that." He said, "So they went to their companion and informed him of what I said. He said, 'Come.' So I went to him, and he asked me about my story, and he said, 'Do you fear that they will kill him?' I said, 'Yes.' He said, 'And do you know his resemblance, if you were to see him depicted?' I said, 'Yes.' I have known him intimately for a long time, so he had an image covered. So he began to uncover one image after another, and then he said, 'Do you recognize him?' I said, 'No,' until he uncovered an image and said, 'There is nothing that resembles him more than this image, as if it is his height, his body, and his build.' After revealing the shoulders, he said, 'Do you fear that they will kill him?' He said, 'I think that they have finished with him.' He said, 'By Allah, they will not kill him, but they will kill whoever they want to kill. Allah will make him prevail, but his right has become obligatory upon us, so stay as long as you need to and call for whatever you desire.' He said, 'So I stayed with them for a while, and then I said, 'If I obeyed them, I would have come to Makkah, and I found that they had expelled the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to Al-Madinah. When I arrived, the Quraysh came to me and said, 'Your matter has become clear to us, and we know your situation. So bring us the wealth of the young boy which your father entrusted to you.' I said, 'I would not have done this until you separated between my head and my body. But let me go so that I can give it to them.' They said, 'You have the covenant of Allah upon you, that you should not eat from our food.' He said, 'So I came to Al-Madinah, and the news reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . I entered upon him, and he said to me about what he says, 'Indeed, I see you hungry, so come and eat.' I said, 'I will not eat until I inform you. If you see me eating, then I have eaten.' He said, 'So I informed him about what they had taken from me.' He said, 'Then fulfill the covenant of Allah and do not eat from our food or drink from our drink.'"

[Machine] One of us said to his companion, "Let us go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and ask him about the solar eclipse and its significance for his Ummah." So we went to the mosque, and it was crowded with people. We coincided with the Prophet ﷺ coming out and leading the people in prayer, while we prayed after him. He stood for a long time, longer than any prayer we had ever witnessed from him. Then he prostrated for a long time, longer than any prostration we had ever witnessed from him. Then he repeated the same in the second unit of the prayer. And it coincided with the sun becoming clear again. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then finished the prayer, praised and glorified Allah, testified that there is no god but Allah, and that he is His servant and Messenger. Then he said, "O people, I am a human being, a Messenger. I remind you of Allah, if you know that I have omitted anything from conveying the messages of my Lord to you, have I conveyed the messages of my Lord as they should be conveyed?" They said, "We bear witness that you have conveyed the messages of your Lord and given sincere advice to your Ummah, and fulfilled what was required of you." Then he said, "Now, some people claim that the eclipse of the sun and moon or the disappearance of the stars from their positions are signs of the death of great men on earth. But they are lying. Rather, these are signs from the signs of Allah, by which He warns His servants, so that those among them who seek repentance may repent. I have seen this while standing in my place of prayer, which you cannot reach in your worldly and hereafter lives. The Hour will not be established until thirty liars appear, the last of whom is the one-eyed Dajjal. He will have the mark of the eye of Abu Tayyibah, a blind man from the Ansar, between his eyes and Aisha's room. The believers will be confined in the Sacred House and will be severely pressed, and they will be displaced greatly." Al-Aswad bin Qays said, "I thought he meant that Isa ibn Maryam ﷺ would emerge among them and Allah would defeat him and his army. Even if the wall adjoins a stump or the branch of a tree, it will say to the believer, 'This is a disbeliever who has concealed himself behind me, so come and kill him.' But it will not be as you think until you see things happening among you that will cause disputes and you will say to each other, 'Did your Prophet mention anything about this?' And even the mountains will move from their positions, and then comes the time of taking away." Ibn al-Mubarik said, "Meaning death."

[Machine] Narrated by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ : While I was with a young boy from the Ansar, we were throwing pebbles at a target during the time of the Prophet ﷺ . Suddenly, the sun rose and a black spear or two spears from the horizon covered it until it illuminated as if it were a lantern. One of us said to his companion, "Let us go to the Prophet's ﷺ mosque, and by Allah, he will tell him about this today, and he will inform his nation about it." So, we went to the mosque and met the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he came out to the people. He led us in prayer, and it was the longest prayer we had ever witnessed from him. Then, he made a prolonged bow, the longest we had ever seen from him in prayer. Then, he prostrated for a long time, the longest we had ever seen from him in prayer. After that, he stood up and prayed another rak'ah just like the first one. Then, he sat down, and the brightness of the sun disappeared. He greeted us and left, praising Allah and mentioning Him. Then, he said, "O people, I remind you of Allah. If you know that I have conveyed the message of my Lord, then bear witness. If you know that I have shortened the delivery of the message of my Lord, then bear witness." They said, "We bear witness that you have conveyed the message of your Lord, advised your ummah, and fulfilled your duty." Then, he said, "As for what follows, there are men who claim that the eclipse of the sun, the eclipse of the moon, and the disappearance of stars from their places are due to the death of great men from the people of the earth, but they are lying. Rather, these are the signs of Allah by which He warns His servants, so that those among them who have deviated may repent. By Allah, I have seen things concerning your worldly affairs and your hereafter from the time I started praying until now. And by Allah, the Hour will not be established until thirty liars appear, the last of them being the one-eyed Antichrist. He will be wiping his eye, as if it were the eye of my cousin, 'Abdullah bin Abi Quhafah, between whose house and the room of 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with them both) there is a distance. Indeed, when he appears, he will claim to be Allah. Whoever believes in him and affirms his claim, will not benefit from any good deeds he had done before. Whoever disbelieves in him and fights against him, will not be inflicted with any punishment for his previous deeds. Indeed, he will appear on the earth, except for the Haram (Makkah) and the holy land (Jerusalem). He will lead people to Jerusalem, where they will be surrounded to an extreme extent." He said, "I thought that he mentioned that 'Isa ibn Maryam would appear among them in the morning and would kill him and his army until even the corners and pillars call out, 'O Muslim! O believer! This is a disbeliever hiding behind me, so come and kill him.' However, this will not occur until you witness severe and great matters occurring among yourselves, and you will argue among yourselves, 'Did your Prophet ﷺ mention that to you?'" Then, he said, "Afterward, the approaching of death."

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said: "While I and a young man from the Ansar were throwing two items back and forth, we continued this until the sun became darkened and appeared like a tombstone. One of us said to the other, 'Let's go to the mosque, for I swear by Allah, I will inform the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this matter in his Ummah.' So I went to the mosque, and there he was standing alone and filled with anxiety. We approached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he came out to the people. We stood with him longer than we had ever stood with him in any prayer, never hearing his voice. Then he performed a prostration as long as he had stood with us in prayer, again not hearing his voice. Then he performed a second prostration as long as he had performed the first one, with no sound heard from him. In the second unit of the prayer, he performed the same actions. His prostration coincided with the disappearance of the sun in the second unit. Then he made taslim and praised and glorified Allah, and testified that there is no god but Allah and that he is the Messenger of Allah. Then he said, 'O people, I am only a human being, a Messenger of Allah. I swear by Allah, if you knew what I know, you would have been greatly amazed. By Allah, since I have established regular prayer, I have not seen that which you are seeing with regards to your worldly affairs and the Hereafter. I swear by Allah, the Hour will not be established until thirty liars will appear, the last of them being the Dajjal. He will be one-eyed and blind in the left eye, with his eye looking like a bulging grape. At that time, there will be a man from among the Ansar, who is the grandfatherly figure of Abu Tihayyah. He will be between him and the room of Aisha. Indeed, when he emerges, he will claim to be Allah. Whoever believes in him, acknowledges him, and follows him, then his righteous deeds will not benefit him. Whoever disbelieves in him, denies him, and opposes him, then he will not face any punishment for his previous deeds. Indeed, he will appear on the entire Earth except for the Haram and the blessed land of Jerusalem. He will gather the Muslims in the land of Jerusalem, and they will be besieged intensely. Then Allah will destroy him and his troops, so much so that the wall and the trunk of the palm tree will say, 'O believer, O Muslim, there is a disbeliever among us, come and kill him.' However, this will not occur until you witness great calamities among yourselves, to the extent that you will question one another, 'Did your Prophet ﷺ mention anything about this?' And this will continue until mountains change their positions. Then after that, the Hour will come, and he pointed with his fingers, gesturing left and right, and then he said, 'I bear witness to this sermon of Samurah, for he mentioned in it these matters, and he did not alter their proper places.'"

Once we were traveling with the Prophet ﷺ and we carried on traveling till the last part of the night and then we (halted at a place) and slept (deeply). There is nothing sweeter than sleep for a traveler in the last part of the night. So it was only the heat of the sun that made us to wake up and the first to wake up was so and so, then so and so and then so and so (the narrator ʿAuf said that Abu Raja' had told him their names but he had forgotten them) and the fourth person to wake up was ʿUmar bin Al- Khattab. And whenever the Prophet ﷺ used to sleep, nobody would wake up him till he himself used to get up as we did not know what was happening (being revealed) to him in his sleep. So, ʿUmar got up and saw the condition of the people, and he was a strict man, so he said, "Allahu Akbar" and raised his voice with Takbir, and kept on saying loudly till the Prophet ﷺ got up because of it. When he got up, the people informed him about what had happened to them. He said, "There is no harm (or it will not be harmful). Depart!" So they departed from that place, and after covering some distance the Prophet ﷺ stopped and asked for some water to perform the ablution. So he performed the ablution and the call for the prayer was pronounced and he led the people in prayer. After he finished from the prayer, he saw a man sitting aloof who had not prayed with the people. He asked, "O so and so! What has prevented you from praying with us?" He replied, "I am Junub and there is no water. " The Prophet ﷺ said, "Perform Tayammum with (clean) earth and that is sufficient for you." Then the Prophet ﷺ proceeded on and the people complained to him of thirst. Thereupon he got down and called a person (the narrator ʿAuf added that Abu Raja' had named him but he had forgotten) and ʿAli, and ordered them to go and bring water. So they went in search of water and met a woman who was sitting on her camel between two bags of water. They asked, "Where can we find water?" She replied, "I was there (at the place of water) this hour yesterday and my people are behind me." They requested her to accompany them. She asked, "Where?" They said, "To Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." She said, "Do you mean the man who is called the Sabi, (with a new religion)?" They replied, "Yes, the same person. So come along." They brought her to the Prophet ﷺ and narrated the whole story. He said, "Help her to dismount." The Prophet ﷺ asked for a pot, then he opened the mouths of the bags and poured some water into the pot. Then he closed the big openings of the bags and opened the small ones and the people were called upon to drink and water their animals. So they all watered their animals and they (too) all quenched their thirst and also gave water to others and last of all the Prophet ﷺ gave a pot full of water to the person who was Junub and told him to pour it over his body. The woman was standing and watching all that which they were doing with her water. By Allah, when her water bags were returned the looked like as if they were more full (of water) than they had been before (Miracle of Messenger of Allah ﷺ) Then the Prophet ﷺ ordered us to collect something for her; so dates, flour and Sawiq were collected which amounted to a good meal that was put in a piece of cloth. She was helped to ride on her camel and that cloth full of foodstuff was also placed in front of her and then the Prophet ﷺ said to her, "We have not taken your water but Allah has given water to us." She returned home late. Her relatives asked her: "O so and so what has delayed you?" She said, "A strange thing! Two men met me and took me to the man who is called the Sabi' and he did such and such a thing. By Allah, he is either the greatest magician between this and this (gesturing with her index and middle fingers raising them towards the sky indicating the heaven and the earth) or he is Allah's true Apostle." Afterwards the Muslims used to attack the pagans around her abode but never touched her village. One day she said to her people, "I think that these people leave you purposely. Have you got any inclination to Islam?" They obeyed her and all of them embraced Islam. Abu ʿAbdullah said: The word Saba'a means "The one who has deserted his old religion and embraced a new religion." Abul 'Ailya [??] said, "The SʿAbis are a sect of people of the Scripture who recite the Book of Psalms." (Using translation from Bukhārī 344)

[Machine] That day I attended a sermon by Samurah ibn Jundub, in which he mentioned that once, when he was a young boy among the Ansar, we played a game near the Prophet's ﷺ covenant until the sun was just above the horizon, it turned black and shone like a firebrand. One of us said to his companion, "Let's go to the mosque and, by Allah, we will inform the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about what happened to the sun in his nation." So we went to the mosque, and there he was standing at the door. When he went out to the people, he came forward and prayed with us for as long as he had never prayed before, his voice being inaudible. Then he bowed with us as long as he had never bowed before, his voice being inaudible. Then he prostrated with us as long as he had never prostrated before, his voice being inaudible. Then he did the same in the second rakah, and when he rose from the second prostration, the sun had cleared up while he was still sitting and the people were still in the second rakah. Then he said the tasleem, praised and glorified Allah, and testified that there is no god but Allah and that he is His servant and Messenger. Then he said, "O people, I am only a human being and the Messenger of Allah. I remind you of Allah. If you know that I have omitted something of my Lord's messages, inform me of them, so that I may fully convey my Lord's messages as they should be conveyed. And if you know that I have conveyed my Lord's messages, then bear witness to that " So the people got up and said, "We bear witness that you have conveyed your Lord's messages and acted with sincerity towards your nation, and you have fulfilled what was required of you." Then they fell silent, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "As for the solar eclipse and lunar eclipse and the disappearance of these stars from their place, this is caused by the death of great men from the people of the earth, and they deny it but they are signs from the signs of Allah by means of which He puts His slaves to the test, until He sees who among them will turn in repentance. By Allah, since I started praying, I have been seeing things that neither you nor anyone else on earth can see. The Hour will not begin until thirty liars appear among whom the last will be the one-eyed Dajjal, who will be rubbing the eye with which he is blind and it will look like the eye of Abu Yahya's father, a leader among the Ansar. When he appears, whoever believes in him, follows him, but his former good deeds will not benefit him, and whoever disbelieves in him and rejects him, his previous bad deeds will not be counted against him. He will appear on the entire earth except for the Haram and the Bayt al-Maqdis, and he will gather the believers in the Bayt al-Maqdis, where they will experience a severe earthquake that Allah and His soldiers will be able to defeat him so that even the roots of the trees and the stones of the walls will call out, 'O believer, this one is a disbeliever seeking refuge with me, so come and kill him.' And that will not happen until you see matters becoming more serious among yourselves, and you will ask each other whether your Prophet has informed you of them. The mountains will then move from their places, at which point he gestured with his hand. Then I witnessed another sermon in which he mentioned this hadith, neither adding to it nor omitting anything from it.

[Machine] Al-Khattab, al-Abbas, and Ali bin Abi Talib were arguing about the Prophet's wealth. Umar said, "The wealth of Banu Nadeer was what Allah gave to his Messenger without the Muslims contributing any horses or weapons. It belonged exclusively to the Messenger of Allah, who spent it on his family for a year. Whatever was left was used for horses and weapons in the cause of Allah. After the death of the Prophet, Abu Bakr became its guardian, just as the Messenger of Allah had appointed him. Then I became its guardian, just as Abu Bakr had appointed me. Then you both asked me to give it to you, and I gave it to you on the condition that you use it for the same purposes as the Messenger of Allah had used it. But now you come to me arguing amongst yourselves, wanting me to give half to each of you. Do you want me to make a judgment that is different from what I have already ruled between you? By the One in whose hand is the life of the heavens and the earth, I will not make a judgment different from that. If you are incapable of fulfilling its conditions, then return it to me, and I will suffice you both." Ash-Shafi'i said, "Sufyan told me that he did not hear it directly from Az-Zuhri, but Amr bin Dinar told him about it, and I asked, 'Did he narrate it as you have explained?' and Sufyan said, 'Yes.'"

الْخَطَّابِ ؓ وَالْعَبَّاسُ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ يَخْتَصِمَانِ إِلَيْهِ فِي أَمْوَالِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ كَانَتْ أَمْوَالُ بَنِي النَّضِيرِ مِمَّا أَفَاءَ اللهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ مِمَّا لَمْ يُوجِفْ عَلَيْهِ الْمُسْلِمُونَ بِخَيْلٍ وَلَا رِكَابٍ فَكَانَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ خَالِصًا دُونَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُنْفِقُ مِنْهَا عَلَى أَهْلِهِ نَفَقَةَ سَنَةٍ فَمَا فَضَلَ جَعَلَهُ فِي الْكُرَاعِ وَالسِّلَاحِ عُدَّةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَوَلِيَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ ؓ بِمِثْلِ مَا وَلِيَهَا بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ وَلِيتُهَا بِمِثْلِ مَا وَلِيَهَا بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ ؓ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُمَانِي أَنْ أُوَلِّيَكُمَاهَا فَوَلَّيْتُكُمَاهَا عَلَى أَنْ تَعْمَلَا فِيهَا بِمِثْلِ مَا وَلِيَهَا بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ وَلِيَهَا بِهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ثُمَّ وَلِيتُهَا بِهِ فَجِئْتُمَانِي تَخْتَصِمَانِ أتُرِيدَانِ أَنْ أَدْفَعَ إِلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُما نِصْفًا أتُرِيدَانِ مِنِّي قَضَاءً غَيْرَ مَا قَضَيْتُ بِهِ بَيْنَكُمَا أَوَّلًا فَلَا وَالَّذِي بِإِذْنِهِ تَقُومُ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالْأَرْضُ لَا أَقْضِي بَيْنَكُمَا قَضَاءً غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ فَإِنْ عَجَزْتُمَا عَنْهَا فَادْفَعَاهَا إِلِيَّ أَكْفِيكُمَاهَا قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ فَقَالَ لِي سُفْيَانُ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ مِنَ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَلَكِنْ أَخْبَرَنِيهِ عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قُلْتُ كَمَا قَصَصْتَ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ

While I was at home, the sun rose high and it got hot. Suddenly the messenger of ʿUmar bin Al- Khattab came to me and said, "The chief of the believers has sent for you." So, I went along with him till I entered the place where ʿUmar was sitting on a bedstead made of date-palm leaves and covered with no mattress, and he was leaning over a leather pillow. I greeted him and sat down. He said, "O Mali! Some persons of your people who have families came to me and I have ordered that a gift should be given to them, so take it and distribute it among them." I said, "O chief of the believers! I wish that you order someone else to do it." He said, "O man! Take it." While I was sitting there with him, his doorman Yarfa' came saying, "ʿUthman, ʿAbdur-Rahman bin ʿAuf, Az-Zubair and Saʿd bin Abi Waqqas are asking your permission (to see you); may I admit them?" ʿUmar said, "Yes", So they were admitted and they came in, greeted him, and sat down. After a while Yarfa' came again and said, "May I admit ʿAli and ʿAbbas?" ʿUmar said, "yes." So, they were admitted and they came in and greeted (him) and sat down. Then ʿAbbas said, "O chief of the believers! Judge between me and this (i.e. ʿAli)." They had a dispute regarding the property of Bani An-Nadir which Allah had given to His Apostle as Fai. The group (i.e. ʿUthman and his companions) said, "O chief of the believers! Judge between them and relieve both of them front each other." ʿUmar said, "Be patient! I beseech you by Allah by Whose Permission the Heaven and the Earth exist, do you know that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Our (i.e. prophets') property will not be inherited, and whatever we leave, is Sadaqa (to be used for charity),' and Messenger of Allah ﷺ meant himself (by saying "we'')?" The group said, "He said so." ʿUmar then turned to ʿAli and ʿAbbas and said, "I beseech you by Allah, do you know that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said so?" They replied, " He said so." ʿUmar then said, "So, I will talk to you about this matter. Allah bestowed on His Apostle with a special favor of something of this Fai (booty) which he gave to nobody else." ʿUmar then recited the Holy Verses: "What Allah bestowed as (Fai) Booty on his Apostle (Muhammad) from them --- for this you made no expedition with either cavalry or camelry: But Allah gives power to His Apostles over whomever He will 'And Allah is able to do all things." 9:6) ʿUmar added "So this property was especially given to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, but, by Allah, neither did he take possession of it and leave your, nor did he favor himself with it to your exclusion, but he gave it to all of you and distributed it amongst you till this property remained out of it. Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to spend the yearly expenses of his family out of this property and used to keep the rest of its revenue to be spent on Allah 's Cause. Allah 's Apostle kept on doing this during all his lifetime. I ask you by Allah do you know this?" They replies in the affirmative. ʿUmar then said to ʿAli and ʿAbbas. "I ask you by Allah, do you know this?" ʿUmar added, "When Allah had taken His Prophet unto Him, 'Abu Bakr said, 'I am the successor of Messenger of Allah ﷺ so, Abu Bakr took over that property and managed it in the same way as Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to do, and Allah knows that he was true, pious and rightlyguided, and he was a follower of what was right. Then Allah took Abu Bakr unto Him and I became Abu Bakr's successor, and I kept that property in my possession for the first two years of my Caliphate, managing it in the same way as Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to do and as Abu Bakr used to do, and Allah knows that I have been true, pious, rightly guided, and a follower of what is right. Now you both (i.e. 'Ah and ʿAbbas) came to talk to me, bearing the same claim and presenting the same case; you, ʿAbbas, came to me asking for your share from your nephew's property, and this man, i.e. ʿAli, came to me asking for his wife's share from her father's property. I told you both that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Our (prophets') properties are not to be inherited, but what we leave is Sadaqa (to be used for charity).' When I thought it right that I should hand over this property to you, I said to you, 'I am ready to hand over this property to you if you wish, on the condition that you would take Allah's Pledge and Convention that you would manage it in the same way as Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to, and as Abu Bakr used to do, and as I have done since I was in charge of it.' So, both of you said (to me), 'Hand it over to us,' and on that condition I handed it over to you. So, I ask you by Allah, did I hand it over to them on this condition?" The group aid, "Yes." Then ʿUmar faced ʿAli and ʿAbbas saying, "I ask you by Allah, did I hand it over to you on this condition?" They said, "Yes. " He said, " Do you want now to give a different decision? By Allah, by Whose Leave both the Heaven and the Earth exist, I will never give any decision other than that (I have already given). And if you are unable to manage it, then return it to me, and I will do the job on your behalf." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3094)

[Machine] We went out as pilgrims and our disputes multiplied while we were in a state of ihram. Which one is faster in running, the deer or the horse? While we were like this, a deer came to us and Suhun said to us, "That deer just ran past us from the left." Harun said it with emphasis. Then, one of us threw a stone at it and did not miss. He got on his mount and killed it. It was then thrown into our hands. When we arrived in Mecca, we headed to Umar in Mina. I entered with the companion of the deer to Umar ibn al-Khattab and mentioned to him the incident of the deer that was killed. Umar asked him intentionally or accidentally? And maybe Umar asked, "How did you kill it intentionally or accidentally?" He said, "I aimed to throw it and I did not intend to kill it." A man added, and Umar said, "Intention and mistake have become mixed." Then he turned to a man, and Umar, swearing by Allah, said, "It is as if his face was a heart." He means silver. And maybe he said, "Then he turned to a man beside him and spoke to him for a while." Then he came to my companion and said to him, "Take a sheep from the flock, slaughter it and distribute its meat." And maybe he said, "Give its meat in charity and feed its skin to the needy." Then, when we left him, I approached the man and said, "O Umar, Ibn al-Khattab, the fatwa of Ibn al-Khattab will not benefit you from anything from Allah." And by Allah, Umar did not know until he asked the man who was next to him to slaughter his ride and give it in charity and honor the rituals of Allah. Then, Dhu al-Uwaynatayn approached him and presented it to him. And maybe he said, "Then Dhu al-Uwaynatayn approached Umar and gave it to him." And he may have said, "I do not know anything, and by Allah, I did not feel anything except that he was hitting the darah on me." And he said it several times. And he may have said, "May Allah kill you. You have exceeded the fatwa and you kill the forbidden and you say, 'I did not know.' Didn't Umar ask the one next to him, 'Do you read the book of Allah, for Allah says, 'Let the people of knowledge judge.'" (Surah Al-Ma'idah, verse 95). Then he approached me and grabbed my garment edges, and maybe he said, "My garment." And I said, "O Commander of the Believers, I do not allow anything that Allah has forbidden to you." Then he sent me away. Then he approached me and said, "I see you as a young man with a loud tongue and an open chest, and there may be in a man ten good manners, nine of which are good, and maybe he said righteous. And one is evil, so the bad character spoils the nine good manners. So beware of the temptations of youth." Ibn Abi Umar said, Sufyan said, and Abd al-Malik, when he narrated this hadith, he said, "I did not leave out a thousand of them, nor a single 'wa'."
