Is there no one who is afflicted by trouble, that I may relieve him?’ And so on, until dawn comes.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1388)
"إِذا كانَ لَيلةُ النصفِ مِنْ شعبانَ فقُوموا لَيلتَها، وصومواُ يوْمَها، فإِنّ الله ينزلُ فِيها لغروبِ الشّمسِ إِلى سماءِ الدُّنيا فيقولُ: ألَا مِنْ مستغفرٍ فأَغفِرَ له، ألا مُسْترزقٌ فأرْزَقَه، ألا مُبْتلًى فأعافِيَه، ألا سائِلُ فأُعطَيه، ألا كذا، ألا كذا حتَّى يطلعَ الفجرُ".
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar said, "Whoever swears by Allah and then says, 'Allah willing' and then does not do what he has sworn to, has not broken his oath." Malik said, "The best I have heard on this reservation is that it belongs to the statement made if the speaker does not break the normal flow of speech before he is silent. If he is silent and breaks the flow of speech, he has no exception." Yahya said, "Malik said that a man who said that he had disbelieved or associated something with Allah and then he broke his oath, had no kaffara, and he was not a disbeliever or one who associated something with Allah unless his heart concealed something of either of those. He should ask forgiveness of Allah and not return to it - for what he did was evil."
أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ مَنْ قَالَ وَاللَّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَفْعَلِ الَّذِي حَلَفَ عَلَيْهِ لَمْ يَحْنَثْ قَالَ مَالِكٌ أَحْسَنُ مَا سَمِعْتُ فِي الثُّنْيَا أَنَّهَا لِصَاحِبِهَا مَا لَمْ يَقْطَعْ كَلاَمَهُ وَمَا كَانَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ نَسَقًا يَتْبَعُ بَعْضُهُ بَعْضًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْكُتَ فَإِذَا سَكَتَ وَقَطَعَ كَلاَمَهُ فَلاَ ثُنْيَا لَهُ قَالَ يَحْيَى وَقَالَ مَالِكٌ فِي الرَّجُلِ يَقُولُ كَفَرَ بِاللَّهِ أَوْ أَشْرَكَ بِاللَّهِ ثُمَّ يَحْنَثُ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ كَفَّارَةٌ وَلَيْسَ بِكَافِرٍ وَلاَ مُشْرِكٍ حَتَّى يَكُونَ قَلْبُهُ مُضْمِرًا عَلَى الشِّرْكِ وَالْكُفْرِ وَلْيَسْتَغْفِرِ اللَّهَ وَلاَ يَعُدْ إِلَى شَىْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَبِئْسَ مَا صَنَعَ
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his father said that a man who pronounced a dhihar from his four wives in one statement, had only to do one kaffara. Yahya related the same as that to me from Malik from Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman. Malik said, "That is what is done among us. Allah, the Exalted said about the kaffara for pronouncing dhihar, 'It is to free a slave before they touch one another. If he does not find the means to do that, then fasting for two consecutive months before they touch one another. If he cannot do that, it is to feed sixty poor people. ' " (Sura 58 ayats 4,5). Malik said that a man who pronounced dhihar from his wife on various occasions had only to do one kaffara. If he pronounced dhihar, and then did kaffara, and then pronounced dhihar after he had done the kaffara, he had to do kaffara again. Malik said, "Some one who pronounces dhihar from his wife and then has intercourse with her before he has done kaffara, only has to do one kaffara. He must abstain from her until he does kaffara and ask forgiveness of Allah. That is the best of what I have heard. " Malik said, "It is the same with dhihar using any prohibited relations of fosterage and ancestry." Malik said, "Women have no dhihar." Malik said that he had heard that the commentary on the word of Allah, the Blessed, the Exalted, "Those of you who pronounce the dhihar about their wives, and then retract what they have said," (Sura 56 ayat 3), was that a man pronounced dhihar on his wife and then decided to keep her and have intercourse with her. If he decided on that, he must do kaffara. If he divorced her and did not decide to retract his dhihar of her and to keep her and have intercourse with her, there would be no kaffara incumbent on him. Maliksaid, "If he marries her after that, he does not touch her until he has completed the kaffara of pronouncing dhihar." Malik said that if a man who pronounced dhihar from his slave-girl wanted to have intercourse with her, he had to do the kaffara of the dhihar before he could sleep with her. Malik said, "There is no ila in a man's dhihar unless it is evident that he does not intend to retract his dhihar."

When the people of Yemen came, ‘Umar started asking people in the group, Is there anyone among you from Qaran, until he came to [the tribe of Qaran] and said: Who are you? They said: Qaran. Umar’s reins - or Uwaisʿs reins - fell and one of them picked them up and gave them to the other. ‘Umar recognized him and said: What is your name? He said: I am Uwais, [ʼUmar] said: Do you have a mother? [Uwais] said: Yes. [ʻUmar] said: Did you have any whiteness [leprosy]? He said: Yes, but I prayed to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, and He took it away, except for an area the size of a dirham near my navel, so that I would remember my Lord. ‘Umar said to him: Pray for forgiveness for me. He said: Rather you should pray for forgiveness for me; you are the Companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. ʼUmar (e.) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ʿThe best of the Tabiʿeen will be a man called Uwais who has a mother, and he has some whiteness, then he prayed to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, and He took it away, except for an area the size of a dirham near his navel.” So he prayed for forgiveness for him, then he disappeared in a group of people and no one knew where he ended up. Then he (Uwais) came to Koofah. We used to gather in a circle, remembering Allah, and he would sit with us, and when he spoke of Allah, his words would have an impact on us like that of no one else. And he quoted the hadeeth... It was narrated from Qais or Ibn Qais, a man from Juʿfi, from ʿUmar bin al-Khattab and he mentioned a Hadeeth similar to that of Affan.
مَنْ أَنْتُمْ؟ قَالُوا قَرَنٌ فَوَقَعَ زِمَامُ عُمَرَ أَوْ زِمَامُ أُوَيْسٍ فَنَاوَلَهُ أَوْ نَاوَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا الْآخَرَ فَعَرَفَهُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ مَا اسْمُكَ؟ قَالَ أَنَا أُوَيْسٌ فَقَالَ هَلْ لَكَ وَالِدَةٌ؟ قَالَنَعَمْ قَالَ فَهَلْ كَانَ بِكَ مِنَ الْبَيَاضِ شَيْءٌ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَدَعَوْتُ اللهَ ﷻ فَأَذْهَبَهُ عَنِّي إِلَّا مَوْضِعَ الدِّرْهَمِ مِنْ سُرَّتِي لِأَذْكُرَ بِهِ رَبِّي قَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي قَالَ أَنْتَ أَحَقُّ أَنْ تَسْتَغْفِرَ لِي أَنْتَ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ خَيْرَ التَّابِعِينَ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ أُوَيْسٌ وَلَهُ وَالِدَةٌ وَكَانَ بِهِ بَيَاضٌ فَدَعَا اللهَ ﷻ فَأَذْهَبَهُ عَنْهُ إِلَّا مَوْضِعَ الدِّرْهَمِ فِي سُرَّتِهِ فَاسْتَغْفَرَ لَهُ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ فِي غِمَارِ النَّاسِ فَلَمْ يُدْرَ أَيْنَ وَقَعَ قَالَ فَقَدِمَ الْكُوفَةَ قَالَ وَكُنَّا نَجْتَمِعُ فِي حَلْقَةٍ فَنَذْكُرُ اللهَ وَكَانَ يَجْلِسُ مَعَنَا فَكَانَ إِذَا ذَكَرَ هُوَ وَقَعَ حَدِيثُهُ مِنْ قُلُوبِنَا مَوْقِعًا لَا يَقَعُ حَدِيثُ غَيْرِهِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
“Whoever visits a sick person is walking amongst the fruits of Paradise. When he sits with him he is covered with mercy, and when he leaves him, seventy thousand angels are appointed to pray for forgiveness for him that day.”
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ عَادَ مَرِيضًا مَشَى فِي خِرَافِ الْجَنَّةِ فَإِذَا جَلَسَ عِنْدَهُ اسْتَنْقَعَ فِي الرَّحْمَةِ فَإِذَا خَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ وُكِّلَ بِهِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ
"مَنْ عَادَ مَرِيضًا، مَشَى فِي خِرَاف الْجَنَّةِ، فَإِذَا جَلَسَ عِنْدَهُ اسْتَنْقَعَ فِي الرَّحْمَة، فَإِذَا خَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ وَكَّلَ اللهُ بهِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَك يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لَهُ وَيَحْفَظُونَهُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ".
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in Mecca with Zaid bin Harithah. Then Zaid bin Amr bin Nufayl passed by them and invited them to a meal. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O son of my brother, I do not eat from what is slaughtered on the idols." Then the Prophet ﷺ was seen eating something that was slaughtered on the idols. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, my father was just like you saw him and he came to know about you. If he had met you, he would have believed in you and followed you. So, should I seek forgiveness for him?" He said, "Yes, seek forgiveness for him, for he will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment as a separate nation."
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ هُوَ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ حَارِثَةَ فَمَرَّ بِهِمَا زَيْدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ نُفَيْلٍ فَدَعَوَاهُ إِلَى سُفْرَةٍ لَهُمَا فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي إِنِّي لَا آكُلُ مِمَّا ذُبِحَ عَلَى النُّصُبِ قَالَ فَمَا رُئِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَكَلَ شَيْئًا مِمَّا ذُبِحَ عَلَى النُّصُبِ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبِي كَانَ كَمَا قَدْ رَأَيْتَ وَبَلَغَكَ وَلَوْ أَدْرَكَكَ لآمَنَ بِكَ وَاتَّبَعَكَ فَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَسْتَغْفِرُ لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ يُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أُمَّةً وَحْدَهُ
[Machine] Indeed, the one you seek will appear in your land, so accept him when he says "Labbaik" sincerely and devoutly. Seek righteousness, not power or wealth. Is the migrant like the one who says, "I seek refuge in the same way that Ibrahim sought refuge," while standing and turning away (from temptation)? O Allah, I seek refuge and seek refuge from all difficulties, no matter how great they may be, for I am strong and capable. Then he prostrates to the Kaaba. Zaid ibn Amr and Zaid ibn Harithah were eating from their table and the Prophet ﷺ invited them. They said, "O nephew, we do not eat from what is sacrificed for idols." The Prophet ﷺ did not see him eating from what was sacrificed for idols from that day until his death. Sa'id ibn Zaid came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, Zaid was as you saw him or as he informed you. So seek forgiveness for him." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, I seek forgiveness for him, for he will be resurrected as a single nation on the Day of Resurrection."
أَمَا إِنَّ الَّذِي تَطْلُبُ سَيَظْهَرُ بِأَرْضِكَ فَأَقْبَلَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لَبَّيْكَ حَقًّا حَقًّا تَعَبُّدًا وَرِقًّا الْبِرَّ أَبْغِي لَا الْحَالَ وَهَلْ مُهَاجِرٌ كَمَنْ قَالَ عُذْتُ بِمَا عَاذَ بِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ وَأَنْفِي لَكَ اللهُمَّ عَانٍ رَاغِمٍ مَهْمَا تَجَشَّمَنِي فَإِنِّي جَاشِمٌ ثُمَّ يَخِرُّ فَيَسْجُدُ لِلْكَعْبَةِ قَالَ فَمَرَّ زَيْدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ وَهُمَا يَأْكُلَانِ مِنْ سُفْرَةٍ لَهُمَا فَدَعَيَاهُ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي لَا آكُلُ مِمَّا ذُبِحَ عَلَى النُّصُبِ قَالَ فَمَا رُؤِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ مِمَّا ذُبِحَ عَلَى النُّصُبِ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى بُعِثَ قَالَ وَجَاءَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ زَيْدًا كَانَ كَمَا رَأَيْتَ أَوْ كَمَا بَلَغَكَ فَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُ قَالَ «نَعَمْ فَاسْتَغْفَرَ لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ يُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أُمَّةً وَحْدَهُ»
[Machine] The Azdi brought a bandage to Mecca and saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and some young men following him. He said, "O Muhammad, I am suffering from madness." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Praise be to Allah, we seek His help, we seek His forgiveness, and we seek refuge in Allah from the evil of ourselves. Whomever Allah guides, no one can misguide him, and whomever Allah misguides, no one can guide him. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger." The Azdi then said, "Respond to me with these words." He said, "I have heard poetry, eloquence, and divination, but I have never heard words like these. They have reached the depths of the ocean. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger." He then embraced Islam. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him, "Did you embrace Islam for yourself and your people?" He replied, "Yes, for myself and my people." Later, a group from the Prophet's companions passed by his people, and some of them were affected by ailments. They said, "These are from the people of the Azdi, return them." So they were returned.
قَدِمَ ضِمَادٌ الْأَزْدِيُّ مَكَّةَ فَرَأَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَغِلْمَانٌ يَتْبَعُونَهُ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي أُعَالِجُ مِنَ الجُنُونِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ وَنَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللهُ فَلا مُضِلَّ لَهُ وَمَنْ يُضْلِل فَلا هَادِيَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ رُدَّ عَلَيَّ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ الشِّعْرَ وَالْعِيَافَةَ وَالْكَهَانَةَ فَمَا سَمِعْتُ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ لَقَدْ بَلَغْنَ قَامُوسَ الْبَحْرِ وَإِنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلا اللهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ فَأَسْلَمَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ أَسْلَمَ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى قَوْمِكَ؟ قَالَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَى قَوْمِي قَالَ فَمَرَّتْ سَرِيَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِقَوْمِهِ فَأَصَابَ بَعْضُهُمْ مِنْهُمْ شَيْئًا إِدَاوَةً أَوْغَيْرَهَا فَقَالُوا هَذِهِ مِنْ قَوْمِ ضِمَادٍ رُدُّوهَا قَالَ فَرَدُّوهَا
[Machine] I said, "Except that I passed by Uthman in the mosque and greeted him, and he filled his eyes with tears from me, but he did not return my greeting. Omar sent for Uthman and called him, saying, "What prevented you from returning the greeting to your brother?" Uthman said, "I didn't do anything." Saad said, "I said, 'Yes, he did.' Uthman said, 'Yes, and I seek forgiveness from Allah and repent to Him. You passed by me unexpectedly while I was just mentioning a word that I had heard from the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ . No, by Allah, I have not mentioned it except that my sight is overcast and my heart is in a state of confusion." Saad said, "I will inform you about it. The Messenger of Allah mentioned to us the first supplication, then an Arab came and occupied him until the Messenger of Allah got up, so I followed him. When I feared that he would get to his house before me, I stamped my foot on the ground, and the Messenger of Allah turned to me and said, 'Who is this, Abu Ishaq?' I said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'Come here.' I said, 'No, by Allah, except that you mentioned to us the first supplication, and then this Arab came and occupied you.' He said, 'Yes, it is the supplication of Dhul-Nun (Yunus), when he was in the belly of the fish, 'There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers.' [Quran 21:87]. No Muslim ever supplicates to his Lord with it in any matter except that Allah answers him."

" عن سعد بن أبى وقاص قال: مررتُ بعثمانَ بن عفانَ في المسجدِ فَسَلَّمْتُ عليه، فملأ عَيْنَيْهِ مِنِّى، ثمَّ لَمْ يَرُدَّ علىَّ السلامَ، فَأتَيْتُ عمر بن الخطاب، فقلت: يا أمير المؤمنين، مررت بعثمان آنفا فسلمت عليه، فملأ عينيه منى ثم لم يرد على السلام، فأرسل عمر إلى عثمان فدعاه به فقال: ما منعك أن تكون رددت على أخيك السلام؟ قال عثمان: ما فعلت، قال سعد: قلت: بلى، ثم إن عثمان دْكر قال: بلى، فأستغفر الله وأتوب إليه، إنك مررت آنفا وأنا أحدث نفسى بكلمة سمعتها من رسول
الله ﷺ لا والله ما ذكرتها قط إلا يغشى بصرى وقلبى غشاوة، قال سعد: فأنا أنبئك بها، إن رسول الله ﷺ ذكر لنا أول دعوة ثم جاءه أعرابى فشغله، ثم قام رسول الله ﷺ فأتبعته، فأشفقت أن يسبقنى إلى منزله، فضربت بقدمى الأرض فالتفت إِلَىَّ رسول الله ﷺ فقال: من هذا؟ أبو إسحاق؟ قلت: نعم يا رسول الله، قال: فمه، قلت: لا والله إلا أنك ذكرت لنا أول دعوة ثم جاء هذا الأعرابى، فقال: نعم دعوة ذى النون (لا إله إلا أنت سبحانك إنى كنت من الظالمين) فإنه لم يدع بها مسلم ربه في شئ قط إلا استجاب له ".
