Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When a bondsman-a Muslim or a believer-washes his face (in course of ablution), every sin he contemplated with his eyes, will be washed away from his face along with water, or with the last drop of water; when he washes his hands, every sin they wrought will be effaced from his hands with the water, or with the last drop of water; and when he washes his feet, every sin towards which his feet have walked will be washed away with the water or with the last drop of water with the result that he comes out pure from all sins.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ الْعَبْدُ الْمُسْلِمُ أَوِ الْمُؤْمِنُ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ خَرَجَ مِنْ وَجْهِهِ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ نَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا بِعَيْنَيْهِ مَعَ الْمَاءِ أَوْ مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ الْمَاءِ فَإِذَا غَسَلَ يَدَيْهِ خَرَجَ مِنْ يَدَيْهِ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ كَانَ بَطَشَتْهَا يَدَاهُ مَعَ الْمَاءِ أَوْ مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ الْمَاءِ فَإِذَا غَسَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ خَرَجَتْ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ مَشَتْهَا رِجْلاَهُ مَعَ الْمَاءِ أَوْ مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ الْمَاءِ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ نَقِيًّا مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ  

Messenger of Allah said: "When a Muslim, or believer, performs Wudu', washing his face, every evil that he looked at with his eyes leaves with the water - or with the last drop of water, or an expression similar to that - and when he washes his hands, every evil he did with his hands leaves with the water - or with the last drop of water - until he becomes free of sin."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ الْعَبْدُ الْمُسْلِمُ أَوِ الْمُؤْمِنُ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ خَرَجَتْ مِنْ وَجْهِهِ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ نَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا بِعَيْنَيْهِ مَعَ الْمَاءِ أَوْ مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ الْمَاءِ أَوْ نَحْوِ هَذَا وَإِذَا غَسَلَ يَدَيْهِ خَرَجَتْ مِنْ يَدَيْهِ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ بَطَشَتْهَا يَدَاهُ مَعَ الْمَاءِ أَوْ مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ الْمَاءِ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ نَقِيًّا مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ  

Yahya related to me from Malik from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih from his father from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "A muslim slave (or a trusting slave) does wudu and as he washes his face every wrong action he has seen with his eyes leaves with the water (or the last drop of water). As he washes his hands every wrong action he has done with his hands leaves with the water (orthe last drop of water). And as he washes his feet every wrong action his feet have walked to leaves with the water (or the last drop of water) so that he comes away purified of wrong actions."

A person came there and said: Messenger of Allah, I have committed an offence which deserves the imposition of hadd upon me, so impose it upon me. Messenger of Allah ﷺ kept silent. He repeated it and said: Messenger of Allah, I have committed an offence which deserves the imposition of hadd upon me, so impose it upon me. He (the Holy Prophet) kept silent, and it was at this time that Iqama was pronounced for prayer (and the prayer was observed). And when Allah's Apostle ﷺ had concluded the payer that person followed Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Abu Umama said: I too followed Messenger of Allah ﷺ after he had concluded the prayer, so that I should know what answer he would give to that person. That person remained attached to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, I have committed an offence which deserves imposition of hadd upon me, so impose it upon me. Abu Umama reported that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: Didn't you see that as you got out of the house, you performed ablution perfectly well. He said: Messenger of Allah, of course. I did it. He again said to him: Then you observed prayer along with us. He said: Messenger of Allah, yes, it is so. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: Verily, Allah has exempted you from the imposition of hadd, or he said. From your sin.  

بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَنَحْنُ قُعُودٌ مَعَهُ إِذْ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَىَّ فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَىَّ فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ فَاتَّبَعَ الرَّجُلُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِينَ انْصَرَفَ وَاتَّبَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْظُرُ مَا يَرُدُّ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ فَلَحِقَ الرَّجُلُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَىَّ قَالَ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَرَأَيْتَ حِينَ خَرَجْتَ مِنْ بَيْتِكَ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ تَوَضَّأْتَ فَأَحْسَنْتَ الْوُضُوءَ قَالَ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ شَهِدْتَ الصَّلاَةَ مَعَنَا فَقَالَ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ غَفَرَ لَكَ حَدَّكَ أَوْ قَالَ ذَنْبَكَ  

[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a gathering when a man came to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have committed a sin, so pray for Allah to establish His Book upon me." The Prophet ﷺ then established the prayer with us. After he finished, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ left and the man followed him, and I followed him as well. The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have committed a sin, so pray for Allah to establish His Book upon me." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Didn't you leave your house, perform ablution, and then join us in prayer?" The man replied, "Yes, I did." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then indeed, Allah has forgiven your sin or offense."  

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي مَجْلِسٍ فَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي قَدْ أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْ عَلَيَّ كِتَابَ اللهِ قَالَ فَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ قَالَ فَصَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَتَبِعَهُ الرَّجُلُ وَتَبِعْتُهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْ عَلَيَّ كِتَابَ اللهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَلَيْسَ خَرَجْتَ مِنْ مَنْزِلِكَ تَوَضَّأْتَ فَأَحْسَنْتَ الْوُضُوءَ وَصَلَّيْتَ مَعَنَا؟ قَالَ الرَّجُلُ بَلَى قَالَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ قَدْ غَفَرَ لَكَ حَدَّكَ أَوْ ذَنْبَكَ  

[Machine] He said, "I heard Abu Umamah saying that a man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was in the mosque and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, indeed I have committed a sin, so please establish the punishment upon me.' The Prophet ﷺ remained silent. Then, he came and said to him again. Then, the prayer was established and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed. After that, he turned away. Abu Umamah said, 'The man followed him.' He said, 'I followed him to know what he would say to him.' The man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, indeed I have committed a sin, so please establish the punishment upon me.' The Prophet ﷺ said to him, 'Did you not perform ablution before leaving your house, and you performed it well, then you prayed with us?' He said, 'Yes.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Then, indeed Allah has forgiven your sin or fault.' Shaddad bin Aws (one of the narrators) said about the Hadith, 'So I left with the Prophet ﷺ and the man followed him.'"  

قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ يَقُولُ أَتَى رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَيَّ قَالَ فَسَكَتَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ثُمَّ عَادَ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى ثُمَّ أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ قَالَ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ فَاتَّبَعَهُ الرَّجُلُ قَالَ وَتَبِعْتُهُ قَالَ عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَانْصَرَفْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَالرَّجُلُ يَتْبَعُهُ لِأَعْلَمَ مَا يَقُولُ لَهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ حَدًّا فَأَقِمْهُ عَلَيَّ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ تَوَضَّأْتَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنْ مَنْزِلِكَ فَأَحْسَنْتَ الْوُضُوءَ ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتَ مَعَنَا؟ قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ قَدْ غَفَرَ لَكَ حَدَّكَ أَوْ ذَنْبَكَ شَكَّ عِكْرِمَةُ قَالَ عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَانْصَرَفْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَاتَّبَعَهُ الرَّجُلُ  

There would come people amongst the Muslims on the Day of Resurrection with as heavy sins as a mountain, and Allah would forgive them and He would place in their stead the Jews and the Christians. (As far as I think), Abu Raub said: I do not know as to who is in doubt. Abu Burda said: I narrated it to 'Umar b. 'Abd al-'Aziz, whereupon he said: Was it your father who narrated it to you from Allah's Apostle ﷺ? I said: Yes.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ يَجِيءُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ نَاسٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بِذُنُوبٍ أَمْثَالِ الْجِبَالِ فَيَغْفِرُهَا اللَّهُ لَهُمْ وَيَضَعُهَا عَلَى الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى فِيمَا أَحْسِبُ أَنَا قَالَ أَبُو رَوْحٍ لاَ أَدْرِي مِمَّنِ الشَّكُّ قَالَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ فَقَالَ أَبُوكَ حَدَّثَكَ هَذَا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ  

Now you have called for this lion who strikes (the enemies) with his tail. He then brought out his tongue and began to move it and said: By Him Who has sent you with Truth, I shall tear them with my tongue as the leather is torn. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Don't be hasty; (let) Abu Bakr who has the best know- ledge of the lineage of the Quraish draw a distinction for you in regard to my lineage, as my lineage is thesame as theirs. Hassan then came to him (Abu Bakr) and after making inquiry (in regard to the lineage of the Holy Prophet) came back to him (the holy Prophet) and said: Messenger of Allah, he (Abu Bakr) has drawn a distinction in vour lineage (and that of the Quraish) By Him Who has sent you with Truth, I shall draw out from them (your name) as hair is drawn out from the flour. 'A'isha said: I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying to Hassin: Verily Ruh-ul- Qudus would continue to help you so long as you put up a defence on behalf of Allah and His Messenger. And she said: I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: Hassan satirised against them and gave satisfaction to the (Muslims) and disquieted (the non-Muslims). You satirised Muhammad, but I replied on his behalf, And there is reward with Allah for this. You satirised Muhammad. virtuous, righteous, The Apostle of Allah, whose nature is truthfulness. So verily my father and his father and my honour Are a protection to the honour of Muhammad; May I lose my dear daughter, if you don't see her, Wiping away the dust from the two sides of Kada', They pull at the rein, going upward; On their shoulders are spears thirsting (for the blood of the enemy) ; our steeds are sweating-our women wipe them with their mantles. If you had not interfered with us, we would have performed the 'Umra, And (then) there was the Victory, and the darkness cleared away. Otherwise wait for the fighting on the day in which Allah will honour whom He pleases. And Allah said: I have sent a servant who says the Truth in which there is no ambiguity; And Allah said: I have prepared an army-they are the Ansar whose object is fighting (the enemy), There reaches every day from Ma'add abuse, or fighting or satire; Whoever satirises the Apostle from amongst you, or praises him and helps it is all the same, And Gabriel, the Messenger of Allah is among us, and the Holy Spirit who has no match.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Mock the Quraysh, for it troubles them more than the raising of the nobility." So he sent to Ibn Rawaha and said, "Mock them." He mocked them, but they were not pleased. So he sent to Ka'b ibn Malik, then he sent to Hassan ibn Thabit. When Hassan entered, he said, "It is time for you to send to this lion striking with his tail." Then he moved his tongue and began to recite poetry. He said, "By the One who sent you with the truth, I will make them flee, tearing the flesh." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not hurry, for Abu Bakr is more knowledgeable of the lineage of the Quraysh than anyone, and I have a lineage among them until your lineage is purified." So Hassan went to him and then returned and said, "O Messenger of Allah, your lineage is pure to me. By the One who sent you with the truth, I will answer them like separating a hair from dough." Aisha said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say to Hassan, 'The Holy Spirit continues to support you as long as you defend Allah and His Messenger.'" She said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Hassan mocked them and they were healed and felt pain.'" Hassan said.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «اهْجُوا قُرَيْشًا فَإِنَّهُ أَشَدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ رَشْقِ النَّبْلِ» فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى ابْنِ رَوَاحَةَ فَقَالَ «اهْجُهُمْ» فَهَجَاهُمْ فَلَمْ يَرْضَ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ إِلَى حَسَّانِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ حَسَّانٌ قَالَ «قَدْ آنَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تُرْسِلُوا إِلَى هَذَا الْأَسَدِ الضَّارِبِ بِذَنَبِهِ» ثُمَّ دَلَعَ لِسَانَهُ فَجَعَلَ يُحَرِّكُهُ قَالَ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَأَفْرِيَنَّهُمْ فَرْيَ الْأَدِيمِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا تَعْجَلْ فَإِنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَعْلَمُ قُرَيْشٍ بِأَنْسَابِهَا وَإِنَّ لِي فِيهِمْ نَسَبًا حَتَّى يَخْلُصَ لَكَ نَسَبِي» فَأَتَاهُ حَسَّانٌ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ خَلَصَ لِي نَسَبُكَ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعَرَةُ مِنَ الْعَجِينِ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِحَسَّانٍ «إِنَّ رُوحَ الْقُدُسِ لَا يَزَالُ يُؤَيِّدُكَ مَا نَافَحْتَ عَنِ اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ» قَالَتْ فَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «هَجَاهُمْ حَسَّانُ فَشَفَى وَاشْتَفَى» قَالَ حَسَّانُ

I used to conceal from you a thing which I heard from Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Had you not committed sins, Allah would have brought into existence a creation that would have committed sin (and Allah) would have forgiven them.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ حِينَ حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ كُنْتُ كَتَمْتُ عَنْكُمْ شَيْئًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَوْلاَ أَنَّكُمْ تُذْنِبُونَ لَخَلَقَ اللَّهُ خَلْقًا يُذْنِبُونَ يَغْفِرُ لَهُمْ  

I used to conceal from you a thing which I heard from Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Had you not committed sins, Allah would have brought into existence a creation that would have committed sin (and Allah) would have forgiven them. (Using translation from Muslim 2748a)   

أَنَّهُ قَالَ حِينَ حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ قَدْ كُنْتُ كَتَمْتُ عَنْكُمْ شَيْئًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَوْلَا أَنَّكُمْ تُذْنِبُونَ لَخَلَقَ اللهُ قَوْمًا يُذْنِبُونَ فَيَغْفِرُ لَهُمْ  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "If it were not for the fact that you commit sins, Allah would have created a creation that commits sins and He would forgive them."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَوْلَا أَنَّكُمْ تُذْنِبُونَ لَخَلَقَ اللهُ خَلْقًا يُذْنِبُونَ يَغْفِرُ لَهُمْ»  

If you were not to commit sins, Allah would have swept you out of existence and would have replaced you by another people who have committed sin, and then asked forgiveness from Allah, and He would have granted them pardon.  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَكُنْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبٌ يَغْفِرُهَا اللَّهُ لَكُمْ لَجَاءَ اللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍ لَهُمْ ذُنُوبٌ يَغْفِرُهَا لَهُمْ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If you did not sin, Allah would have replaced you with people who would sin and He would forgive them."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ لَمْ تُذْنِبُوا لَجَاءَ اللهُ بِقَوْمٍ يُذْنِبُونَ وَيَغْفِرُ لَهُمْ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If you did not commit sins, Allah would replace you with people who would commit sins and seek His forgiveness."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ لَمْ تُذْنِبُوا لَجَاءَ اللهُ بِقَوْمٍ يُذْنِبُونَ فَيَغْفِرُ لَهُمْ»  

He who performed ablution for prayer and performed it properly and then went (to observe) obligatory prayer and offered it along with people or with the congregation or in the mosque, Allah would pardon his sins.  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ لِلصَّلاَةِ فَأَسْبَغَ الْوُضُوءَ ثُمَّ مَشَى إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ فَصَلاَّهَا مَعَ النَّاسِ أَوْ مَعَ الْجَمَاعَةِ أَوْ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ ذُنُوبَهُ  

"I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Whoever does wudu' properly, then walks to (attend) the prescribed prayer, and prays with the people or with the congregation or in the Masjid, Allah will forgive him his sins."

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “Whoever does wudooʿ and does it properly, then goes and offers an obligatory prayer, his sins will be forgiven.ʿ  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَأَسْبَغَ الْوُضُوءَ ثُمَّ مَشَى إِلَى صَلاةٍ مَكْتُوبَةٍ فَصَلَّاهَا غُفِرَ لَهُ ذَنْبُهُ

One day we went to 'Abdullah b. Mas'ud after we had observed the dawn prayer and we paid salutation at the door. He permitted us to enter, but we stayed for a while at the door, when the slave-girl came out and said: Why don't you come in? So we went in and (we found 'Abdullah b. Mas'ud) sitting and glorifying Allah (i. e. he was busy in dhikr) and he said: What obstructed you from coming in though you had been granted permission for it? We said: There was nothing (behind it) but we entertained the idea that some inmate of the house might be sleeping. He said: Do you presume any idleness on the part of the family of Ibn Umm 'Abd (the mother of Abdullah b. Mas'ud)? He was again busy with the glorification of Allah till he thought that the sun had risen. He said: Girl, see whether (the sun) has arisen. She glanced but it had not risen (by that time). He was again busy with the glorification (of Allah) and he (again) thought that the sun had arisen. She glanced (and confirmed) that, it had risen. Upon this he ('Abdullah b. Mas'ud) said: Praise be to Allah Who did not call us to account for our sins today. Mahdi said: I think that he said, He did not destroy us for our sins. One among the people said: I recited all the mufassal surahs during the night. 'Abdullah said: (You must have recited them) like the (recitation) of poetry. I heard (the Holy Prophet) combining (the sarahs) and I remember the combinations which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made In the recitation (of surahs). These were constituted of eighteen mufassal surahs and two surahs (commencing with) Ha-Mim.  

أَلاَ تَدْخُلُونَ فَدَخَلْنَا فَإِذَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ يُسَبِّحُ فَقَالَ مَا مَنَعَكُمْ أَنْ تَدْخُلُوا وَقَدْ أُذِنَ لَكُمْ فَقُلْنَا لاَ إِلاَّ أَنَّا ظَنَنَّا أَنَّ بَعْضَ أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ نَائِمٌ قَالَ ظَنَنْتُمْ بِآلِ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ غَفْلَةً قَالَ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ يُسَبِّحُ حَتَّى ظَنَّ أَنَّ الشَّمْسَ قَدْ طَلَعَتْ فَقَالَ يَا جَارِيَةُ انْظُرِي هَلْ طَلَعَتْ قَالَ فَنَظَرَتْ فَإِذَا هِيَ لَمْ تَطْلُعْ فَأَقْبَلَ يُسَبِّحُ حَتَّى إِذَا ظَنَّ أَنَّ الشَّمْسَ قَدْ طَلَعَتْ قَالَ يَا جَارِيَةُ انْظُرِي هَلْ طَلَعَتْ فَنَظَرَتْ فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ طَلَعَتْ فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَقَالَنَا يَوْمَنَا هَذَا فَقَالَ مَهْدِيٌّ وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ وَلَمْ يُهْلِكْنَا بِذُنُوبِنَا قَالَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ قَرَأْتُ الْمُفَصَّلَ الْبَارِحَةَ كُلَّهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ هَذًّا كَهَذِّ الشِّعْرِ إِنَّا لَقَدْ سَمِعْنَا الْقَرَائِنَ وَإِنِّي لأَحْفَظُ الْقَرَائِنَ الَّتِي كَانَ يَقْرَؤُهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ وَسُورَتَيْنِ مِنْ آلِ حم  

[Machine] "That you enter while permission has been granted to you?" They said, "Only we thought that some members of the family were asleep." He said, "Did you assume negligence on the part of Um Abd?" Then he approached and began to praise (Allah) until he thought that the sun had risen. He said, "O my servant, look, has it risen?" She looked and indeed it had risen. So he said, "Praise to Allah who has relieved us on this day." He said, "This is Mahdi and I think he said, 'And He did not destroy us because of our sins.'" A man from the people said, "I recited the entire Mufassal yesterday." Abdullah said, "This is like this poetry: 'Indeed, I memorize the surahs that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite - eighteen (from the Mufassal) and two (from the chapters of Surah Ham).' "  

أَنْ تَدْخُلُوا وَقَدْ أُذِنَ لَكُمْ؟ فَقَالُوا لَا إِلَّا أَنَّا ظَنَنَّا أَنَّ بَعْضَ أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ نَائِمٌ قَالَ ظَنَنْتُمْ بِآلِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ غَفْلَةً ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ يُسَبِّحُ حَتَّى ظَنَّ أَنَّ الشَّمْسَ قَدْ طَلَعَتْ قَالَ يَا جَارِيَةُ انْظُرِي هَلْ طَلَعَتْ؟ قَالَ فَنَظَرَتْ فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ طَلَعَتْ فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَقَالَنَا يَوْمَنَا هَذَا قَالَ مَهْدِيٌّ وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ وَلَمْ يُهْلِكْنَا بِذُنُوبِنَا قَالَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ قَرَأْتُ الْمُفَصَّلَ الْبَارِحَةَ كُلَّهُ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ هَذًّا كَهَذِّ الشِّعْرِ «إِنِّي لَأَحْفَظُ الْقَرَائِنَ الَّتِي كَانَ يَقْرَؤُهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ مِنَ الْمُفَصَّلِ وَسُورَتَيْنِ مِنْ آلِ حم»  

Leave him alone. When he had finished, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered that a bucket (of water) should be brought and poured over it.  

أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا قَامَ إِلَى نَاحِيَةٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَبَالَ فِيهَا فَصَاحَ بِهِ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ دَعُوهُ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِذَنُوبٍ فَصُبَّ عَلَى بَوْلِهِ  

There came to our house some guests. It was a common practice with my father to (go) and talk to Messenger of Allah ﷺ during the night. While going he said: 'Abd al-Rahman, entertain the guests. When it was evening we served the food to them, but they refused saying: So long as the owner of the house does not come and join us, we would not take the meal. I said to them: He ('Abd Bakr) is a stern person, and if you would not do that (if you do not take the food). I fear, I may be harmed by him, but they refused. As he (my father) came, the first thing he asked was: Have you served the guests? They (the peopleof the household) said: We have not served them sofar. He said: Did I not command 'Abd al-Rahman (to do this)? He ('Abd al-Rahman) said: I slunk away and kept myself away by that time. He again said: O stupid fellow, I ask you on oath that In case you hear my voice you come to me. I came and said: By Allah, there is no fault of mine. These are your guests; you may ask them. I provided them with food but they refused to eat until you came. He said to them: Why is it that you did not accept our food? By Allah, I shall not even take food tonight (as you have not taken). They said: By Allah, we would not take until you join us. Thereupon he Abu Bakr) said: I have never seen a more unfortunate night than this. Woe be to thee! that you do not accept from us food prepared for you. He again said: What I did first (that is the taking of vow for not eating the food) was prompted by the Satan. Bring the food. The food was brought, and he ate by reciting the name of Allah and they also ate, and when it was morning he came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, their oath (that of the guests) came to be true, but mine was not true, and after that he informed him of the whole incident. He said: Your oath came to be the most true and you are the best of them. He (the narrator) said. I do not know whether he made an atonement for it.

I provided them with food but they refused to eat until you came. He said to them: Why is it that you did not accept our food? By Allah, I shall not even take food tonight (as you have not taken). They said: By Allah, we would not take until you join us. Thereupon he Abu Bakr) said: I have never seen a more unfortunate night than this. Woe be to thee! that you do not accept from us food prepared for you. He again said: What I did first (that is the taking of vow for not eating the food) was prompted by the Satan. Bring the food. The food was brought, and he ate by reciting the name of Allah and they also ate, and when it was morning he came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, their oath (that of the guests) came to be true, but mine was not true, and after that he informed him of the whole incident. He said: Your oath came to be the most true and you are the best of them. He (the narrator) said. I do not know whether he made an atonement for it. (Using translation from Muslim 2057b)   

نَزَلَ عَلَيْنَا أَضْيَافٌ لَنَا وَكَانَ أَبِي يَتَحَدَّثُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَانْطَلَقَ وَقَالَ يَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ افْرُغْ مِنْ أَضْيَافِكَ فَلَمَّا أَمْسَيْتُ جِئْنَا بِقِرَاهُمْ فَأَبَوْا وَقَالُوا حَتَّى يَجِيءَ أَبُوكَ مَنْزِلَهُ فَيَطْعَمُ مَعَنَا فَقُلْتُ إِنَّهُ رَجُلٌ حَدِيدٌ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا خِفْتُ أَنْ يُصِيبَنِي مِنْهُ أَذًى فَأَبَوْا عَلَيْنَا فَلَمَّا جَاءَ قَالَ قَدْ فَرَغْتُمْ مِنْ أَضْيَافِكُمْ فَقَالُوا لَا وَاللَّهِ فَقَالَ أَلَمْ آمُرُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ وَتَنَحَّيْتُ قَالَ أَقْسَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَسْمَعُ صَوْتِي إِلَّا جِئْتَ فَجِئْتُ فَقُلْتُ وَاللَّهِ مَا لِي ذَنْبٌ هَؤُلَاءِ أَضْيَافُكَ فَسَلْهُمْ قَدْ أَتَيْتُهُمْ بِقِرَاهُمْ فَأَبَوْا أَنْ يَطْعَمُوا حَتَّى تَجِيءَ فَقَالَ مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَقْبَلُونَ عَنَّا قِرَاكُمْ؟ وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَاللَّهِ لَا أَطْعَمُهُ اللَّيْلَةَ قَالُوا فَوَاللَّهِ لَا نَطْعَمُهُ حَتَّى تَطْعَمَهُ فَقَالَ لَمْ أَرْ كَالشَّرِّ مُنْذُ اللَّيْلَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَّا الْأَوَّلُ فَمِنِ الشَّيْطَانِ فَهَلُمُّوا قِرَاكُمْ فَجِيءَ بِالطَّعَامِ فَسَمَّى اللَّهَ وَأَكَلَ وَأَكَلُوا فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ غَدَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بَرُّوا وَحَنِثْتُ فَقَالَ «بَلْ أَنْتَ أَبَرُّهُمْ وَخَيْرُهُمْ»
