(15)

Umar said: I agreed with my Lord on three matters, I said: O Messenger of Allah ﷺ , why don't we take the Maqam of Ibraheem as a place of prayer? Then the verse was revealed: ʿ And take you(people) the Maqam (place) of Ibraheem (Abraham) [ or the stone on which Ibraheem (Abraham) stood while he was building the Kabah]as a place of prayerʿ [al Baqarah 2:125]. And I said: O Messenger of Allah ﷺ , both righteous and evil doers enter your wives, so why don't you tell them to observe the hijab? Then the verse of hijab was revealed. And the wives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got together as a result of the jealousy between them, and I said to them. ʿ It may be if he divorced you(all) that his lord will give him instead of you, wives better than youʿ[at Tahreem 66:5], and it was revealed like that.

قَالَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَافَقْتُ رَبِّي فِي ثَلاثٍ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَوِ اتَّخَذْنَا مِنْ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى؟ فَنَزَلَتْ {وَاتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَّقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى} [البقرة 125] وَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ نِسَاءَكَ يَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهِنَّ الْبَرُّ وَالْفَاجِرُ فَلَوْ أَمَرْتَهُنَّ أَنْ يَحْتَجِبْنَ؟ فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْحِجَابِ وَاجْتَمَعَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نِسَاؤُهُ فِي الْغَيْرَةِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُنَّ {عَسَى رَبُّهُ إِنْ طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَنْ يُبْدِلَهُ أَزْوَاجًا خَيْرًا مِّنْكُنَّ} [التحريم 5] قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ كَذَلِكَ

I agreed with my Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, in three matters - or my Lord agreed with me in three matters, I said: O Messenger of Allah, why don't you take the Maqarn of Ibraheem as a place of prayer? Then Allah revealed the verse: ʿAnd take you (people) the Maqam (place) of Ibraheem (Abraham) [or the stone on which Ibraheem (Abraham) stood while he was building the Ka'bah) as a place of prayerʿ (al Baqarah 2:125). And I said: Why don't you tell the Mothers of the Believers to observe hijab, for both righteous people and evildoers enter upon you? Then the verse of hijab was revealed. And I heard something about the Mothers of the Believers, so I talked to them and told them: You should stop bothering the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , or Allah will replace you with wives who are better than you and are Muslims. Then I came to one of the Mothers of the Believers and she said: O 'Umar, is it the case that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ cannot admonish his wives so that you come and admonish them? So I stopped, then Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed the verse: “It may be if he divorced you (all) that his Lord will give him instead of you, wives better than you Muslims (who submit to Allah), believers, obedient (to Allah)...ʿ [at­-Tahreerm 66:5)

قَالَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَافَقْتُ رَبِّي ﷻ فِي ثَلاثٍ أَوْ وَافَقَنِي رَبِّي فِي ثَلاثٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَوِ اتَّخَذْتَ الْمَقَامَ مُصَلًّى؟ قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَاتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَّقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى} وَقُلْتُ لَوْ حَجَبْتَ عَنْ أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَإِنَّهُ يَدْخُلُ عَلَيْكَ الْبَرُّ وَالْفَاجِرُ؟ فَأُنْزِلَتْ آيَةُ الْحِجَابِ قَالَ وَبَلَغَنِي عَنْ أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ شَيْءٌ فَاسْتَقْرَيْتُهُنَّ أَقُولُ لَهُنَّ لَتَكُفُّنَّ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْ لَيُبْدِلَنَّهُ اللهُ بِكُنَّ أَزْوَاجًا خَيْرًا مِنْكُنَّ مُسْلِمَاتٍ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ عَلَى إِحْدَى أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَقَالَتْ يَا عُمَرُ أَمَا فِي رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَا يَعِظُ نِسَاءَهُ حَتَّى تَعِظَهُنَّ؟ فَكَفَفْتُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {عَسَى رَبُّهُ إِنْ طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَنْ يُبْدِلَهُ أَزْوَاجًا خَيْرًا مِّنْكُنَّ مُسْلِمَاتٍ مُّؤْمِنَاتٍ قَانِتَاتٍ} الْآيَةَ

I said to Ibn ‘Umar: is the deceased tormented because of the weeping of this living one? He said: ‘Umar narrated to me from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I did not lie when narrating from ʿUmar, and ʿUmar did not lie when narrating from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.

عَنْ قَزَعَةَ قَالَقُلْتُ لِابْنِ عُمَرَ يُعَذِّبُ اللهُ هَذَا الْمَيِّتَ بِبُكَاءِ هَذَا الْحَيِّ؟ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَا كَذَبْتُ عَلَى عُمَرَ وَلا كَذَبَ عُمَرُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

ʿUmar would swear an oath three times, saying: By Allah, no one has more right to this wealth than anyone else, I have no more right to it than anyone else; there is no Muslim who does not have a share in this wealth, except a slave, but it is to be divided according to our categories in the light of the Book of Allah and our closeness to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Thus it is to be given on the basis of a manʿs efforts for the sake of lslam, his seniority in Islam, his support for Islam, and his need. By Allah, if I live, a shepherd in the mountains of San‘a’ will get his share of that wealth when he is tending his flock.

عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَوْسِ بْنِ الْحَدَثَانِ قَالَكَانَ عُمَرُ يَحْلِفُ عَلَى أَيْمَانٍ ثَلاثٍ يَقُولُ وَاللهِ مَا أَحَدٌ أَحَقَّ بِهَذَا الْمَالِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ وَمَا أَنَا بِأَحَقَّ بِهِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ وَاللهِ مَا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا وَلَهُ فِي هَذَا الْمَالِ نَصِيبٌ إِلَّا عَبْدًا مَمْلُوكًا وَلَكِنَّا عَلَى مَنَازِلِنَا مِنْ كِتَابِ اللهِ وَقَسْمِنَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَالرَّجُلُ وَبَلاؤُهُ فِي الْإِسْلامِ وَالرَّجُلُ وَقَدَمُهُ فِي الْإِسْلامِ وَالرَّجُلُ وَغَنَاؤُهُ فِي الْإِسْلامِ وَالرَّجُلُ وَحَاجَتُهُ وَوَاللهِ لَئِنْ بَقِيتُ لَهُمْ لَيَأْتِيَنَّ الرَّاعِيَ بِجَبَلِ صَنْعَاءَ حَظُّهُ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَالِ وَهُوَ يَرْعَى مَكَانَهُ

"عَنْ مالك بن أوس بن الحدثان قال: ذكر عمر بن الخطاب يوما الفئ فقال: وَالله مَا أَنَا بِأَحَق بِه مِنْ أَحَدٍ، وَالله مَا مِن المُسْلِمِينَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا وَلَه فِى هَذَا المَالِ نَصِيبٌ إِلَّا عَبْدًا مَملُوكًا، وَلَكِنَّا عَلَى مَنَازِلِنَا مِنْ كِتَابِ الله وَقَسْمِ رسُولِهِ، الرَّجُلُ وَقِدَمُهُ فِي الإِسْلَام، وَالرَّجُلُ وَبَلَاؤُهُ فِى الإِسْلَام، وَالرَّجُلُ وَعيالُهُ، وفِى لفظ: وَغَنَاؤُهُ فِى الإِسْلَام" (والرجل وحاجته، والله لئن بقيت لهم ليأتينَّ الراعى بجبل صنعاء حَظّه من هذا المال، وهو يرعى مكانه) ".

I am going to ask you about something, so do not hide it from me. [Kaʿb said: By Allah I will not hide anything I know. ‘Umar said: What do you fear most for the ummah of Muhammad ﷺ? He said: Misleading leaders. ʿUmar said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ told me about that in private and informed me of it.

مَا أَخْوَفُ شَيْءٍ تَخَوَّفُهُ عَلَى أُمَّةِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ؟ قَالَ أَئِمَّةً مُضِلِّينَ قَالَ عُمَرُ صَدَقْتَ قَدْ أَسَرَّ ذَلِكَ إِلَيَّ وَأَعْلَمَنِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ

A man called Bairah bin Asad went out from Tahiyah, migrating [Hijrah], and he reached Madinah a few days after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died ‘Umar ؓ saw him and realized he was a stranger, so he said to him. Who are you? Are you from Oman? He said: Yes. He took him by the hand and brought him to Abu Bakr ؓ and said: This man is from the land of which heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: ʿI know a land called Oman at the edge of the sea, in it is a tribe of the Arabs who, if my envoy goes to them, they will not shoot arrows or throw stones at him.”

عَنْ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ قَالَخَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ طَاحِيَةَ مُهَاجِرًا يُقَالُ لَهُ بَيْرَحُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ فَقَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِأَيَّامٍ فَرَآهُ عُمَرُ فَعَلِمَ أَنَّهُ غَرِيبٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ مِنْ أَهْلِ عُمَانَ قَالَ مِنْ أَهْلِ عُمَان؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ فَأَدْخَلَهُ عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ هَذَا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ أَرْضًا يُقَالُ لَهَا عُمَانُ يَنْضَحُ بِنَاحِيَتِهَا الْبَحْرُ بِهَا حَيٌّ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ لَوْ أَتَاهُمْ رَسُولِي مَا رَمَوْهُ بِسَهْمٍ وَلا حَجَرٍ

"عَن الزبير بن الحريت، عن أبى أسد قال: خرج رجل من طاحية مهاجرًا يقال له: بيرح بن أسد، فقدم المدينة بعد وفاة النبى ﷺ بأيام، فرآه عمر بن الخطاب، فعلم أنه غريب، فقال له: من أين أنت؟ قال: من أهل عُمَان. قال: من أهل عمان؟ - قال: من أهل عمان؟ قال: نعم، فأخذ بيده فأدخله على أبى بكر فقال: هذا من الأرض التى سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول: إنى لأَعْلَمُ أرضًا يقال لها عُمان ينضَح بناحيتها البحرُ، بها حىٌّ من العرب لو أتاهم رسولى ما رمَوْه بسهم ولا حَجر".

l was sitting beneath the minbar of ʿUmar ؓ when he was addressing the people, and he said in his khutbah:I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “What I fear the most for this ummah is every knowledgeable hypocrite with a smooth tongue.”

عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ قَالَ إِنِّي لَجَالِسٌ تَحْتَ مِنْبَرِ عُمَرَ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ فَقَالَ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ أَخْوَفَ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَى هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ كُلُّ مُنَافِقٍ عَلِيمِ اللِّسَانِ

‘Umar sent word to me... and he mentioned the hadeeth. I said to you both]: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿWe are not to be inherited from and what we leave behind is charity.ʿ

عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَوْسِ بْنِ الْحَدَثَانِ قَالَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ عُمَرُ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فَقُلْتُ لَكُمَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا نُورَثُ مَا تَرَكْنَا صَدَقَةٌ

ʿUmar ؓ said. Were it not that I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, “The killer gets nothing (from the estate of the one he murdered),ʿ I would have included you among the heirs. And he called the maternal uncle of the one who had been killed and gave the camels to him. It was narrated from Mujahid bin Jabr... and he mentioned the same Hadeeth. He said: ʿUmar (4) took thirty three year-old she-camels, thirty four year-old she-camels and forty she camels between the ages of five and eight years, all of which were pregnant, then he called the brother of the one who had been killed and gave them to him, not to his father. And he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “The killer gets nothing.ʿ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَيْسَ لِقَاتِلٍشَيْءٌ لَوَرَّثْتُكَ قَالَ وَدَعَا أَخَا الْمَقْتُولِ فَأَعْطَاهُ الْإِبِلَ

[Machine] I heard Amr ibn Asim ibn Abdullah mention its meaning.

سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ

O khaleefah (caliph) of Allah. He said: I am the khaleefah (lit. successor) of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I am pleased with that.

أَنَا خَلِيفَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا رَاضٍ بِهِ

Abu Bakr said: O Messenger of Allah, how could we be in a good state after this verse? He said: ʿMay Allah have mercy on you, O Abu Bakr. Do you not fall sick? Do you not feel sad? Don't calamities befall you? Do you not...?” He said: Of course. He said: ʿThat is for that. It was narrated that Abu Bakr ath-Thaqafi said: Abu Bakr said: O Messenger of Allah, how could we be in a good state after this verse: ʿwhosoever works evil, will have the recompense thereofʿ (an-Nisa' 4:123)?... and he narrated the same Hadeeth

أَظُنُّهُقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ الصَّلاحُ بَعْدَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ؟ قَالَ يَرْحَمُكَ اللهُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَلَسْتَ تَمْرَضُ؟ أَلَسْتَ تَحْزَنُ؟ أَلَسْتَ تُصِيبُكَ اللَّأْوَاءُ؟ أَلَسْتَ قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ فَإِنَّ ذَاكَ بِذَاكَ

Some people from Syria came to ‘Umar and said: We have acquired wealth and horses and slaves,and we want to pay zakah on them as a purification. He said: I shall do what my two predecessors did. He consulted the Companions of Muhammad ﷺ, among whom was ‘Ali, and ‘Ali said: It is good, provided it does not become a regular tax that is taken from them after you are gone.

عَنْ حَارِثَةَ قَالَجَاءَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا قَدْ أَصَبْنَا أَمْوَالًا وَخَيْلًاوَرَقِيقًا نُحِبُّ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَنَا فِيهَا زَكَاةٌ وَطَهُورٌ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَهُ صَاحِبَايَ قَبْلِي فَأَفْعَلَهُ وَاسْتَشَارَ أَصْحَابَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ وَفِيهِمْ عَلِيٌّ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ هُوَ حَسَنٌ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ جِزْيَةً رَاتِبَةً يُؤْخَذُونَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِكَ

A letter came to us from ‘Umar when we were in Azerbaijan (in which it said): O 'Utbah bin Farqad, beware of luxury, the clothing of the mushrikeen and wearing silk, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade us to wear silk and said, “Except this much,ʿ and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ held up two fingers to us.

عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ قَالَجَاءَنَا كِتَابُ عُمَرَ وَنَحْنُ بِأَذْرَبِيجَانَ يَا عُتْبَةَ بْنَ فَرْقَدٍوَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالتَّنَعُّمَ وَزِيَّ أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ وَلَبُوسَ الْحَرِيرِ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَانَا عَنْ لَبُوسِ الْحَرِيرِ وَقَالَ إِلَّا هَكَذَا وَرَفَعَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِصْبَعَيْهِ

If a man has only one garment, let him wrap it around his waist and then pray, for I heard 'Umar bin al-Khattab say that, and he said: Do not wrap it around the whole body if it is only one garment, as the Jews do. Nati' said: If I tell you that he attributed that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I hope that I would not be lying.

الْيَهُودُقَالَ نَافِعٌ وَلَوْ قُلْتُ لَكُ إِنَّهُ أَسْنَدَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَرَجَوْتُ أَنْ لَا أَكُونَ كَذَبْتُ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood before us as I am standing before you, and said: ʿI urge you to show respect to my Companions, then those who come after them, then those who come after them, then lying will become so widespread that a man will start to give testimony before he is asked to do so.Whoever among you wants to attain a spacious abode in Paradise, let him adhere to the jama'ah (main body of Muslims), for the Shaitan is with the one who is alone, but he is further away from two. And no one of you should be alone with a woman for the Shaitan will be the third one present. The one who is pleased with his good deeds and upset by his bad deeds is a believer.ʿ

قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَقَامِي فِيكُمْ فَقَالَ اسْتَوْصُوا بِأَصْحَابِي خَيْرًا ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ يَفْشُو الْكَذِبُ حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَبْتَدِئُ بِالشَّهَادَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْأَلَهَا فَمَنْ أَرَادَ مِنْكُمْ بَحْبَحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمُ الْجَمَاعَةَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ وَهُوَ مِنَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ لَا يَخْلُوَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ بِامْرَأَةٍ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ ثَالِثُهُمَا وَمَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَسَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ

Umar addressed the people in al­-Jabiyah, and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood as I am standing and said: ʿTreat my Companions kindly, then those who come after them, then those who come after them. Then there will come people who will swear oaths before being asked to swear and will give testimony before being asked to give testimony. Whoever among you would like to attain the best place in Paradise, let him adhere to the jama'ah (the main body of Muslims), for the Shaitan is with one and he is further away from two. No man should be alone with a woman because the Shaitan will be the third one present. Whoever feels pleased when he does a good deed and feels bad when he does an evil deed is a believer.”

إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَامَ فِي مِثْلِ مَقَامِي هَذَا فَقَالَ أَحْسِنُوا إِلَى أَصْحَابِي ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ يَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ يَحْلِفُ أَحَدُهُمْ عَلَى الْيَمِينِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْتَحْلَفَ عَلَيْهَا وَيَشْهَدُ عَلَى الشَّهَادَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْتَشْهَدَ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَنَالَ بُحْبُوحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمُ الْجَمَاعَةَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ وَهُوَ مِنَالِاثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ وَلا يَخْلُوَنَّ رَجُلٌ بِامْرَأَةٍ فَإِنَّ ثَالِثَهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ وَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ تَسُرُّهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَتَسُوؤُهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ

Umar bin al-Khattab said: Whoever would like to see the way of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, let him look at the way of 'Amr bin al Aswad.

أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى هَدْيِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى هَدْيِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ

Umar bin al-Khattab travelled to Syria for the second time and when he approached it, he and those who were with him heard that the plague was widespread therein. His companions said to him: Go back and do not enter it, for if you enter it when (the plague) is in it, we do not think that you should leave it. So he set off, heading back to Madinah, and he stopped to rest at the end of that night. I was the closest of the people to him, and when he woke up, I woke up with him and followed him, and I heard him say: They turned me away from Syria after I had got close to it because the plague was there. It would be a good idea to go to Madinah and finish some work that I have to do there, then I will go and enter Syria and stay in Homs, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “On the Day of Resurrection, Allah will resurrect from it seventy thousand without any reckoning or punishment, and their place of resurrection will be between the olive trees and the garden at al-Barth al Ahmar near (Homs).ʿ

لَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ ارْجِعْ وَلا تَقَحَّمْ عَلَيْهِ فَلَوْ نَزَلْتَهَا وَهُوَ بِهَا لَمْ نَرَ لَكَ الشُّخُوصَ عَنْهَافَانْصَرَفَ رَاجِعًا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَعَرَّسَ مِنْ لَيْلَتِهِ تِلْكَ وَأَنَا أَقْرَبُ الْقَوْمِ مِنْهُ فَلَمَّا انْبَعَثَ انْبَعَثْتُ مَعَهُ فِي أَثَرِهِ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ رَدُّونِي عَنِ الشَّامِ بَعْدَ أَنْ شَارَفْتُ عَلَيْهِ لِأَنَّ الطَّاعُونَ فِيهِ أَلَا وَمَا مُنْصَرَفِي عَنْهُ بمُؤَخِّرٍّ فِي أَجَلِي وَمَا كَانَ قُدُومِي مِنْهُ بمُعَجِّلِي عَنْ أَجَلِي أَلا وَلَوْ قَدْ قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَفَرَغْتُ مِنْ حَاجَاتٍ لَا بُدَّ لِي مِنْهَا لَقَدْ سِرْتُ حَتَّى أَدْخُلَ الشَّامَ ثُمَّ أَنْزِلَ حِمْصَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَيَبْعَثَنَّ اللهُ مِنْهَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا لَا حِسَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلا عَذَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ مَبْعَثُهُمْ فِيمَا بَيْنَ الزَّيْتُونِ وَحَائِطِهَا فِي الْبَرْثِ الْأَحْمَرِ مِنْهَا

Where are you from? He said from 'Anazah. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: ʿA tribe from there will be wronged but they will prevailʿ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ حَيٌّ مِنْ هَاهُنَا مَبْغِيٌّ عَلَيْهِمْ مَنْصُورُونَ

addressed us. - He praised and glorified Allah, then he mentioned stoning and said: Do not be diverted away from it, for it is one of the hadd punishments of Allah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stoned [adulterers], and we stoned [them] after he was gone. Were it not that some may say that 'Umar added something to the Book of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, that is not part of it, I would have written it in some place in the Mushaf. 'Umar bin al-Khattab testified - and on one occasion Hushaim said: and 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Awf and so and so and so and so[also testified] that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stoned [adulterers] and we stoned [them] after he was gone. But there will come people after you who do not believe in stoning, or in the Dajjal, or intercession, or the torment of the grave, or that people will be brought out of Hell after they have been burned in it.

وَقَالَ هُشَيْمٌ مَرَّةً خَطَبَنَا فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ فَذَكَرَ الرَّجْمَ فَقَالَ لَا تُخْدَعُنَّ عَنْهُ فَإِنَّهُ حَدٌّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللهِ أَلا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ رَجَمَ وَرَجَمْنَا بَعْدَهُ وَلَوْلا أَنْ يَقُولَ قَائِلُونَ زَادَ عُمَرُ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ مَا لَيْسَ مِنْهُ لَكَتَبْتُهُ فِي نَاحِيَةٍ مِنَ الْمُصْحَفِ شَهِدَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَقَالَ هُشَيْمٌ مَرَّةً وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ وَفُلانٌ وَفُلانٌ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ رَجَمَ وَرَجَمْنَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ أَلا وَإِنَّهُ سَيَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِكُمْ قَوْمٌ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِالرَّجْمِ وَبِالدَّجَّالِ وَبِالشَّفَاعَةِ وَبِعَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَبِقَوْمٍ يُخْرَجُونَ مِنَ النَّارِ بَعْدَمَا امْتَحَشُوا

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said ­- and on one occasion Sufyan said: ['Umar] heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say ­ “Gold for silver is riba unless it is exchanged on the spot [lit. ‘this for that'), wheat for wheat is riba unless it is exchanged on the spot, barley for barley is riba unless it is exchanged on the spot, dates for dates is riba unless it is exchanged on the spot.”

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ الذَّهَبُ بِالْوَرِقِ رِبًا إِلَّا هَاءَ وَهَاءَ وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ رِبًا إِلَّا هَاءَ وَهَاءَ وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ رِبًا إِلَّا هَاءَ وَهَاءَ وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ رِبًا إِلَّا هَاءَ وَهَاءَ

as­-Subayy bin Ma'bad said: I was a Christian man and I became Muslim, and I entered ihram for both Hajj and 'Umrah (together). Zaid bin Soohan and Salman bin Rabee'ah heard me ­­­when I was entering ihram for both and said. He is more astray than his people's camel. Their words wounded me greatly, so I went to ‘Umar and told him. He turned to them and criticised them, then he turned to me and said: You have been guided to the Sunnah of your Prophet ﷺ, you have been guided to the Sunnah of your Prophet ﷺ.

هُدِيتَ لِسُنَّةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ هُدِيتَ لِسُنَّةِ نَبِيِّكَ ﷺ

“O ‘Umar, you are a strong man. Do not crowd others to touch the Black Stone, lest you harm the weak. If you find a gap, then touch it, otherwise turn to face it and say Lailaha illallah, and Allahu akbar.ʿ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ يَا عُمَرُ إِنَّكَ رَجُلٌ قَوِيٌّ لَا تُزَاحِمْ عَلَى الْحَجَرِ فَتُؤْذِيَ الضَّعِيفَ إِنْ وَجَدْتَ خَلْوَةً فَاسْتَلِمْهُ وَإِلَّا فَاسْتَقْبِلْهُ فَهَلِّلْ وَكَبِّرْ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Umar, you are a strong man, do not harm the weak when you intend to take the stone. If it moves away from you, then take it, otherwise, face it and say 'Allahu Akbar'."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا عُمَرُ إِنَّكَ رَجُلٌ قَوِيُّ لَا تُؤْذِ الضَّعِيفَ إِذْ أَرَدْتَ اسْتِلَامَ الْحَجَرِ فَإِنْ خَلَا لَكَ فَاسْتَلِمْهُ وَإِلَّا فَاسْتَقْبِلْهُ وَكَبِّرْ

I was with ‘Umar and a man came to him and said:I have seen the new moon, the new moon of Shawwal. 'Umar said: O people, break the fast. Then he went to a vessel in which there was water and did wudoo’, and he wiped over his khuffain. A man said: By Allah, O. Ameer al-Mu'mineen, I only came to you to ask about this. Did you see any one else do this? He said: Yes, one who was better than me and the best of the ummah. I saw Abul­-Qasim ﷺ do the same as I have done, when he was wearing a Syrian jubbah with tight sleeves, he put his hand under the jubbah. Then 'Umar prayed Maghrib.

عُمَرُ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَفْطِرُوا ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَى عُسٍّ فِيهِ مَاءٌ فَتَوَضَّأَ وَمَسَحَ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ وَاللهِ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَا أَتَيْتُكَ إِلَّا لِأَسْأَلَكَ عَنْ هَذَا أَفَرَأَيْتَ غَيْرَكَ فَعَلَهُ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ خَيْرًا مِنِّي وَخَيْرَ الْأُمَّةِ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ الَّذِي فَعَلْتُ وَعَلَيْهِ جُبَّةٌ شَامِيَّةٌ ضَيِّقَةُ الْكُمَّيْنِ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ مِنْ تَحْتِ الْجُبَّةِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى عُمَرُ الْمَغْرِبَ

Abu Bakr stood up and praised and glorified Allah, then he said: O people, you recite this verse: “O you who believe! Take care of your ownselves. If you follow the (right) guidance...” [al-Ma'idah 5:105], but you do not interpret it properly. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “If the people see evil and do not change it, soon Allah will send His punishment upon them all.ʿ He (Qais] said: I heard Abu Bakr say: O people, beware of lying for lying is contrary to faith.

حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسٌ قَالَقَامَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ ﷻ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّكُمْ تَقْرَءُونَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ لَا يَضُرُّكُمْ مَنْ ضَلَّ إِذَا اهْتَدَيْتُمْ} [المائدة 105] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ وَإِنَّكُمْ تَضَعُونَهَا عَلَى غَيْرِ مَوْضِعِهَا وَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ النَّاسَ إِذَا رَأَوْا الْمُنْكَرَ لا يُغَيِّرُوهُ أَوْشَكَ اللهُ أَنْيَعُمَّهُمْ بِعِقَابِهِ قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ يَقُولُ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِيَّاكُمْ وَالْكَذِبَ فَإِنَّ الْكَذِبَ مُجَانِبٌ لِلْإِيمَانِ

Abu Bakr stood up and praised and glorified Allah, then he said:O people, you recite this verse: ʿO you who believe! Take care of your ownselves...ʿ (al-Ma’idah 5:105] until he reached the end of the verse. But if the people see an evildoer and do not stop him, soon Allah will send His punishment upon them all. But I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “If the people...” And on another occasion he said: We heard the Messenger of Allah...

قَالَقَامَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّكُمْ تَقْرَؤُونَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ} [المائدة 105] حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ أَلا وَإِنَّ النَّاسَ إِذَا رَأَوْا الظَّالِمَ لَمْ يَأْخُذُوا عَلَى يَدَيْهِ أَوْشَكَ اللهُ أَنْ يَعُمَّهُمْ بِعِقَابِهِ أَلا وَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُول ُ إِنَّ النَّاسَ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى وَإِنَّا سَمِعْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died, Abu Bakr was in some other area of Madinah. He came and uncovered his face and kissed him, and said: May my father and mother be sacrificed for you; how good you look in life and in death. Muhammad ﷺ has died, by the Lord of the Ka'bah... Then Abu Bakr and ‘Umar came together to the people, Abu Bakr spoke and did not omit anything that was revealed concerning the Ansar or that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had said concerning them but he mentioned it. And he said: You know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿIf the people were to walk in one direction and the Ansar were to walk in another, I would walk in the direction of the Ansar.ʿ I know, O Sa'd, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, when you were sitting here: ʿQuraish are to be in charge of this affair (Islam), so the righteous people are but followers of the righteous of (Quraish), and the wrongdoers among the people are but followers of the wrongdoers of (Quraish).ʿ Sa'd said to hümn: You have spoken the truth: we are advisers and you are leaders.

عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَتُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي طَائِفَةٍ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ فَجَاءَ فَكَشَفَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ فَقَبَّلَهُ وَقَالَ فِدًى لَكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي مَا أَطْيَبَكَ حَيًّاوَمَيِّتًا مَاتَ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَقَالَ فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ يَتَقَاوَدَانِ حَتَّى أَتَوْهُمْ فَتَكَلَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَلَمْ يَتْرُكْ شَيْئًا أُنْزِلَ فِي الْأَنْصَارِ وَلا ذَكَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ شَأْنِهِمْ إِلَّا وَذَكَرَهُ وَقَالَ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْ سَلَكَ النَّاسُ وَادِيًا وَسَلَكَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ وَادِيًا سَلَكْتُ وَادِيَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ يَا سَعْدُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ وَأَنْتَ قَاعِدٌ قُرَيْشٌ وُلاةُ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ فَبَرُّ النَّاسِ تَبَعٌ لِبَرِّهِمْ وَفَاجِرُهُمْ تَبَعٌ لِفَاجِرِهِمْ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ سَعْدٌ صَدَقْتَ نَحْنُ الْوُزَرَاءُ وَأَنْتُمُ الْأُمَرَاءُ

I heard Sulaim bin 'Amir, a man from Homs who met the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, say - on one occasion he said: I heard Awsat al-Bajali narrate from Abu Bakr as-Siddeeq, he said: I heard him addressing the people - and on another occasion he said: when he was appointed as caliph - he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood last year where I am standing. Abu Bakr wept and said: “I ask Allah for pardon and well-being, for people are never given anything, after certainty of faith, that is better than well being. You should be truthful, for it leads to Paradise, and beware of lying, for it goes with immorality, and they lead to Hell. Do not sever ties with one another, do not hate one another, do not envy one another, do not turn your backs on one another; be brothers, as Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, has enjoined you.ʿ

سَمِعْتُ سُلَيْمَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ حِمْصٍ وَكَانَ قَدْ أَدْرَكَ أَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَوْسَطَ الْبَجَلِيَّعَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً حِينَ اسْتُخْلِفَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَامَ عَامَ الْأَوَّلِ مَقَامِي هَذَا وَبَكَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ أَسْأَلُ اللهَ الْعَفْوَ وَالْعَافِيَةَ فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ لَمْ يُعْطَوْا بَعْدَ الْيَقِينِ شَيْئًا خَيْرًا مِنَ الْعَافِيَةِ وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالصِّدْقِ فَإِنَّهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْكَذِبَ فَإِنَّهُ مَعَ الْفُجُورِ وَهُمَا فِي النَّارِ وَلا تَقَاطَعُواوَلا تَبَاغَضُوا وَلا تَحَاسَدُوا وَلا تَدَابَرُوا وَكُونُوا إِخْوَانًا كَمَا أَمَرَكُمُ اللهُ ﷻ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿO people, the people are not given anything better in this world than certainty of faith and well-being, so ask Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, for them.ʿ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ النَّاسَ لَمْ يُعْطَوْا فِي الدُّنْيَا خَيْرًا مِنَ الْيَقِينِ وَالْمُعَافَاةِ فَسَلُوهُمَا اللهَ ﷻ

I went out with Abu Bakr following 'Asr prayer a few days after the death of the Prophet ﷺ, and ‘Ali was walking beside him. He passed by al-Hasan bin ‘Ali who was playing with some boys. Abu Bakr carried him on his shoulder, saying: May my father be sacrificed for him, the one who looks like the Prophet ﷺ and does not look like 'Ali. He said: And ‘Ali smiled

أَخْبَرَنِي عُقْبَةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ قَالَخَرَجْتُ مَعَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ مِنْ صَلاةِ الْعَصْرِ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِلَيَالٍ وَعَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ يَمْشِي إِلَى جَنْبِهِ فَمَرَّ بِحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ يَلْعَبُ مَعَ غِلْمَانٍ فَاحْتَمَلَهُ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُوَا بِأَبِي شِبْهُ النَّبِيِّ لَيْسَ شَبِيهًا بِعَلِيِّقَالَ وَعَلِيٌّ يَضْحَكُ

Abu Bakr stood up, one year after the death of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood where I am standing last year and said: “Ask Allah for well being, for no one is given anything better than well-being. And you should be truthful and righteous, for they lead to Paradise. Beware of lying and immorality, for they lead to Hell.ʿ

عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ قَالَقَامَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِعَامٍ فَقَالَ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَقَامِي عَامَ الْأَوَّلِ فَقَالَ سَلُوا اللهَ الْعَافِيَةَ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يُعْطَ عَبْدٌ شَيْئًا أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْعَافِيَةِ وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالصِّدْقِ وَالْبِرِّ فَإِنَّهُمَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْكَذِبَ وَالْفُجُورَ فَإِنَّهُمَا فِي النَّارِ

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came from Makkah to Madinah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got thirsty. They passed by a herd of sheep, Abu Bakr as Siddeeq said: I took a cup and milked a cupful of milk for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I brought it to him and he drank until I was pleased,

سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ قَالَلَمَّا أَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ مَكَّةَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ عَطِشَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَرُّوا بِرَاعِي غَنَمٍ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ فَأَخَذْتُ قَدَحًا فَحَلَبْتُ فِيهِ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كُثْبَةً مِنْ لَبَنٍ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهِ فَشَرِبَ حَتَّى رَضِيتُ

[Machine] "Ibn Abbas was on the pulpit of the people of Basra and I heard him saying, 'Verily, the Prophet of Allahﷺ used to seek refuge in Allah after finishing his prayer from four things. He used to say, 'I seek refuge in Allah from the torment of the grave, I seek refuge in Allah from the torment of the Hellfire, I seek refuge in Allah from the trials and tribulations, whether they are manifest or hidden, and I seek refuge in Allah from the misleading trial of the False Messiah.'"

كَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَتَعَوَّذُ فِي دُبُرِ صَلاتِهِ مِنْ أَرْبَعٍ يَقُولُ أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَأَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ النَّارِ وَأَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنَ الفِتَنِ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ وَأَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْأَعْوَرِ الْكَذَّابِ

[Machine] He said, "The corner will be resurrected."

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يُبْعَثُ الرُّكْنُ

[Machine] "To put it into the container, but he forgot how much he poured on his hand, so he asked me how much I poured. I said I didn't know, so he said you have no mother, why don't you know? Then he performed ablution for prayer. Then he poured water over his head and body. He said, 'This is how the Messenger of Allahﷺ used to purify himself, meaning he used to take a bath.'"

أَنْ يُدْخِلَهَا فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَنَسِيَ مَرَّةً كَمْ أَفْرَغَ عَلَى يَدِهِ فَسَأَلَنِي كَمْ أَفْرَغْتُ؟ فَقُلْتُ لَا أَدْرِي فَقَالَ لَا أُمَّ لَكَ وَلِمَ لَا تَدْرِي؟ ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءَهُ لِلصَّلاةِ ثُمَّ يُفِيضُ الْمَاءَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَجَسَدِهِ قَالَ هَكَذَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَتَطَهَّرُ يَعْنِي يَغْتَسِلُ

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw Gabriel ﷺ and he had six hundred wings.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ رَأَى جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ وَلَهُ سِتُّ مِائَةِ جَنَاحٍ

[Machine] About Aswad ibn Yazid and Alqama ibn Qays, so he mentioned him.

عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ وَعَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ فَذَكَرَهُ

[Machine] We asked our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) about the procession with the funeral? So he said the procession is until the grave. If it is good, it is expedited or it is expedited to it. But if it is other than that, the funeral is followed by distance for the people of fire. It is not from us that someone precedes it.

سَأَلْنَا نَبِيَّنَا ﷺ عَنِ السَّيْرِ بِالْجِنَازَةِ؟ فَقَالَ السَّيْرُ مَا دُونَ الْخَبَبِ فَإِنْ يَكُ خَيْرًا يُعَجَّلْ أَوْ تُعَجَّلْ إِلَيْهِ وَإِنْ يَكُ سِوَى ذَلِكَ فَبُعْدًا لِأَهْلِ النَّارِ الْجِنَازَةُ مَتْبُوعَةٌ وَلَا تَتْبَعُ لَيْسَ مِنَّا مَنْ تَقَدَّمَهَا

[Machine] We asked our Prophet ﷺ about the funeral procession, and he said that the procession should be ahead of the coffin, for if it is a good person, it will be hurried towards their destination, and if it is otherwise, then it will be distancing the people of Hellfire. The funeral procession follows, and it is not from us those who precede it.

سَأَلْنَا نَبِيَّنَا ﷺ عَنِ السَّيْرِ بِالْجِنَازَةِ فَقَالَ السَّيْرُ دُونَ الْخَبَبِ فَإِنْ يَكُ خَيْرًا تُعْجَلْ إِلَيْهِ وَإِنْ يَكُ سِوَى ذَلِكَ فَبُعْدًا لِأَهْلِ النَّارِ الْجِنَازَةُ مَتْبُوعَةٌ وَلَيْسَ مِنَّا مَنْ تَقَدَّمَهَا

[Machine] Muhammad bin al-Walid bin Nuwaif' narrated to me and mentioned it concisely.

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ نُوَيْفِعٍ مَوْلَى آلِ الزُّبَيْرِ َفذَكَرَهُ مُخْتَصَرًا

[Machine] The water was collecting in the eyes of the Prophet ﷺ , so Ali would wipe it away.

كَانَ الْمَاءُ يَسْتَنْقِعُ فِي جُفُونِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ يَحْسُوهُ

[Machine] Which of you saw the passing comet last night? I said, "Me," then I said, "But I wasn't in prayer, I was bitten by a scorpion." He said, "And how did it happen?" I said, "I was stung." He asked, "What made you do that?" So I said, "A hadith that Al-Sha'bi narrated from Buraydah Al-Aslami, who said, 'There is no ruqyah (incantation) except from an evil eye or a scorpion sting.'" Sa'id, meaning Ibn Jubayr, said, "The one who reaches what he heard has done well." Then he said, "Ibn 'Abbas narrated to us from the Prophet ﷺ who said, 'The nations were shown to me, and I saw a prophet with a small group and a prophet with one or two individuals, and a prophet with no one with him. Then a great multitude was raised for me, so I said, 'This is my nation.' It was said, 'This is Musa and his nation. But look to the horizon.' So I looked and saw a great multitude. Then it was said to me, 'Look to the other side.' So I looked and saw a great multitude. It was said, 'This is your nation, and with them are seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment.' Then the Prophet ﷺ rose and entered, and the people began to discuss the matter. They said, 'Who are these people who will enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment?' Some of them said, 'Perhaps they are those who accompanied the Prophet ﷺ .' Others said, 'Perhaps they are those who were born in Islam and never associated anything with Allah, and they mentioned some other things.' Then the Prophet ﷺ came out to them and said, 'What is it that you were discussing?' So they told him what they had said, and he said, 'They are those who do not ask for ruqyah or amulets, and they do not cauterize themselves or seek omens, rather they put their trust in their Lord.' Mu'adh bin Jabal Al-Ansari stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, am I one of them?' He said, 'Yes.' Then another man stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, am I one of them?' He said, 'Ukkashah got ahead of you.'"

[Machine] Narrated by Muhammad ibn Amr ibn Ata ibn Alqamah Al-Qurashi, he said: "We entered the house of Maymuna, the wife of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , and found Abdullah ibn Abbas in it. We then mentioned the ablution in relation to what the fire (of hell) had touched. Abdullah said, 'I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ eating from what the fire had touched, then he prayed without performing ablution.' Some of us said to him, 'Did you really see him, O Ibn Abbas?' He pointed to his eyes with his hand and said, 'I saw the brightness of his eyes.'"

عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَطَاءِ بْنِ عَلْقَمَةَ الْقُرَشِيِّ قَالَدَخَلْنَا بَيْتَ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَوَجَدْنَا فِيهِ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَذَكَرْنَا الْوُضُوءَ مِمَّا مَسَّتِ النَّارُ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ مِمَّا مَسَّتْهُ النَّارُ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي وَلا يَتَوَضَّأُ فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُنَا أَنْتَ رَأَيْتَهُ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ؟ قَالَ فَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى عَيْنَيْهِ فَقَالَ بَصُرَ عَيْنَيَّ

[Machine] They say that it is written between his eyes K F R. Ibn Abbas said, "I did not hear him say that. However, as for Ibrahim ﷺ , look at your companion, and as for Musa ﷺ , he is a man of medium height, with curly hair, riding a Red Camel. He looks as if I am looking at him descending into the valley, making takbeer."

يَقُولُونَ مَكْتُوبٌ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ ك ف ر قَالَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ لَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ قَالَ ذَلِكَ وَلَكِنْ قَالَ أَمَّا إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فَانْظُرُوا إِلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ وَأَمَّا مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ فَرَجُلٌ آدَمُ جَعْدٌ عَلَى جَمَلٍ أَحْمَرَ مَخْطُومٍ بِخُلْبَةٍ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ إِذَا انْحَدَرَ فِي الْوَادِي يُلَبِّي

I was sitting with 'Abdullah and Abu Musa that they reported Messenger of Allah ﷺ having said: Prior to the Last Hour, there would be a time when knowledge would be taken away, and ignorance would take its place and there would be bloodshed on a large scale. (Using translation from Muslim 2672a)

كُنْتُ جَالِسًا مَعَ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَأَبِي مُوسَى فَقَالَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ أَيَّامًا يَنْزِلُ فِيهَا الْجَهْلُ وَيُرْفَعُ فِيهَا الْعِلْمُ وَيَكْثُرُ فِيهَا الْهَرْجُ قَالَ قُلْنَا وَمَا الْهَرْجُ؟ قَالَ الْقَتْلُ

كَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ وَأَبُو مُوسَى جَالِسَيْنِ وَهُمَا يَتَذَاكَرَانِ الْحَدِيثَ فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ أَيَّامٌ يُرْفَعُ فِيهَا الْعِلْمُ وَيَنْزِلُ فِيهَا الْجَهْلُ وَيَكْثُرُ فِيهَا الْهَرْجُ وَالْهَرْجُ الْقَتْلُ
