I heard Anas bin Malik saying, "On a Friday a person entered the main Mosque through the gate
facing the pulpit while Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was delivering the Khutba. The man stood in front of Allah's
Apostle and said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! The livestock are dying and the roads are cut off; so please pray
to Allah for rain.' " Anas added, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) raised both his hands and said, 'O Allah!
Bless us with rain! O Allah! Bless us with rain! O Allah! Bless us with rain!' " Anas added, "By Allah,
we could not see any trace of cloud in the sky and there was no building or a house between us and
(the mountains of) Sila." Anas added, "A heavy cloud like a shield appeared from behind it (i.e. Sila'
Mountain). When it came in the middle of the sky, it spread and then rained." Anas further said, "By
Allah! We could not see the sun for a week. Next Friday a person entered through the same gate and
at that time Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was delivering the Friday's Khutba. The man stood in front of him and
said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! The livestock are dying and the roads are cut off, please pray to Allah to
withhold rain.' " Anas added, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) I raised both his hands and said, 'O Allah! Round about
us and not on us. O Allah! On the plateaus, on the mountains, on the hills, in the valleys and on the
places where trees grow.' So the rain stopped and we came out walking in the sun." Sharik asked Anas
whether it was the same person who had asked for the rain (the last Friday). Anas replied that he did
not know.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 15, Hadith 8
Yahya related to me from Malik
that Ibn Shihab, Sulayman ibn Yasar, and Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman
said, "The blood-money of manslaughter is twenty yearlings, twenty
two-year-olds, twenty male two-year-olds, twenty four-year-olds, and
twenty five-year-olds."
Malik said, "The generally agreed on
way with us is that there is no retaliation against children. Their
intention is accidental. The hudud are not obliged for them if they
have not yet reached puberty. If a child kills someone it is only
accidentally. Had a child and an adult killed a free man accidentally,
each of them pays half the full blood-money."
Malik said, "A
person who kills someone accidentally pays blood-money with his
property and there is no retaliation against him. That money is like
anything else from the dead man's property and his debt is paid with
it and he is allowed to make a bequest from it. If he has a total
property of which the blood-money is a third and then the blood-money
is relinquished, that is permitted to him. If all the property he has
is his blood-money, he is permitted to relinquish a third of it and to
make that a bequest."
Muwatta Malik Book 43, Hadith 6
Malik said, "The generally agreed on wayof doing things among us
is that when there are no full siblings with them, half-siblings by
the father take the position of full siblings. Their males are like
the males of the full siblings, and their females are like their
females except in the case where the half-siblings by the mother and
the full siblings share, because they are not offspring of the mother
who joins these."
Malik said, "If there are both full
siblings and half-siblings by the father and there is a male among the
full siblings none of the half-siblings by the father have any
inheritance. If there is one or more females in the full siblings and
there is no male with them, the one full sister gets a half, and the
half sister by the father gets a sixth, completing the two-thirds. If
there is a male with the half-sisters by the father, they have no
share. The people of fixed shares are given their shares and if there
is something left after that it is divided between the half-siblings
by the father. The male has the portion of two females. If there is
nothing left over, they get nothing. If the full siblings consist of
two or more females, they get two-thirds, and the half-sisters by the
father get nothing with them unless there is a half-brother by the
father with them. If there is a half-brother by the father with them,
the people of fixed shares are given their shares and if there is
something left over after that, it is divided between the half-
siblings by the father. The male gets the portion of two females. If
there is nothing left over, they get nothing. Half-siblings by the
mother, full-siblings, and half-siblings by the father, each have a
sixth (when they are onlyone). Two and more share a third. The male
has the same portion as the female. They are in the same position in
it."
Muwatta Malik Book 27, Hadith 6
Anas said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) sent seventy men, called Al-Qurra 'for some purpose. The two groups of Bani
Sulaim called Ri'l and Dhakwan, appeared to them near a well called Bir Ma'una. The people (i.e. Al-
Qurra) said, 'By Allah, we have not come to harm you, but we are passing by you on our way to do
something for the Prophet.' But (the infidels) killed them. The Prophet (ﷺ) therefore invoked evil upon
them for a month during the morning prayer. That was the beginning of Al Qunut and we used not to
say Qunut before that." A man asked Anas about Al-Qunut, "Is it to be said after the Bowing (in the
prayer) or after finishing the Recitation (i.e. before Bowing)?" Anas replied, "No, but (it is to be said)
after finishing the Recitation."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 64, Hadith 132
It was
narrated from Jabir bin ‘Abdullah that the Prophet (ﷺ) led
his
Companions in the fear prayer. He led them all in bowing, then the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and the row nearest him prostrated, and the
others stood up, then when he stood up, they prostrated twice by
themselves. Then the front row moved back and took their place, and
they moved forward until they formed the front row. Then the Prophet
(ﷺ) led them all in bowing, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and
the row nearest to him prostrated, and when they raised their heads,
the others prostrated twice. So all of them bowed with the Prophet
(ﷺ) and some of them prostrated by themselves, and the enemy was in
the direction of the Qiblah.
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 5, Hadith 458
"Whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) passed by (my mother Um-Sulaim) he used to enter
her and greet her. Anas further said: Once the Prophet (ﷺ) way a
bridegroom during his marriage with Zainab, Um Sulaim said to me, "Let
us give a gift to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ." I said to her, "Do it." So she
prepared Haisa (a sweet dish) made from dates, butter and dried
yoghurt and she sent it with me to him. I took it to him and he said,
"Put it down," and ordered me to call some men whom he named, and to
invite whomever I would meet. I did what he ordered me to do, and when
I returned, I found the house crowded with people and saw the Prophet (ﷺ)
keeping his hand over the Haisa and saying over it whatever Allah
wished (him to say). Then he called the men in batches of ten to eat
of it, and he said to them, "Mention the Name of Allah, and each man
should eat of the dish the nearest to him." When all of them had
finished their meals, some of them left and a few remained there
talking, over which I felt unhappy. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) went out towards
the dwelling places (of his wives) and I too, went out after him and
told him that those people had left. Then he returned and entered his
dwelling place and let the curtains fall while I was in (his) dwelling
place, and he was reciting the Verses:-- 'O you who believe! Enter not
the Prophet's house until leave is given you for a meal, (and then)
not (as early as) to what for its preparation. But when you are
invited, enter, and when you have taken your meals, disperse without
sitting for a talk. Verily such (behavior) annoys the Prophet; and he
would be shy of (asking) you (to go), but Allah is not shy of (telling
you) the Truth.' (33-53) Abu Uthman said: Anas said, "I served the
Prophet for ten years."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 67, Hadith 98
I spent a night with my maternal aunt (sister of my mother) Maimuna. The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) got up during the night and relieved himself, then washed his face and hands and went to sleep. He then got up again, and came to the water skin and loosened its straps, then performed good ablution between the two extremes. He then stood up and observed prayer. I also stood up and stretched my body fearing that he might be under the impression that I was there to find out (what he did at night). So I also performed ablution and stood up to pray, but I stood on his left. He took hold of my hand and made me go around to his right side. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) completed thirteen rak`ahs of his night prayer. He then lay down and slept and snored (and it was his habit to snore while asleep). Then Bilal came and he informed him about the prayer. He (the Holy Prophet) then stood up for prayer and did not perform ablution, and his supplication included these words: "O Allah, place light in my heart, light in my sight, light in my hearing, light on my right hand, light on my left hand, light above me, light below me, light in front of me, light behind me, and enhance light for me."
Kuraib (the narrator) said: There are seven (words more) which are in my heart (but I cannot recall them) and I met some of the descendants of Al-`Abbas and they narrated these words to me and mentioned in them: (Light) in my sinew, in my flesh, in my blood, in my hair, in my skin, and made a mention of two more things.
