During the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) I was shooting some of my arrows in Medina, when the sun eclipsed. I threw (the arrows) and said: By Allah, I must see how the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) acts in solar eclipse. So I came to him and he was standing in prayer, raising his hands, glorifying Him, praising Him, acknowledging His Oneness, declaring His greatness, and supplicating Him, till the sun cleared. When the eclipse was over, he recited two surahs and prayed two rak'ahs.
Sahih Muslim Book 10, Hadith 28
"The Messenger of Allah had a letter written about charity, but he had not dispatched it to his governors until he died; he kept it with him along with his sword. When he died, Abu Bakr implemented it until he died, as did Umar until he died. In it was: 'A sheep (is due) on five camels, two sheeps on ten, three sheeps on fifteen, four sheeps for twenty, a Bint Makhad on twenty-five to thirty-five. When it is more than that, then a Bint Labun, (is due, till the number of the camels reaches) forty-five. When it is more than that, then a Hiqqah until sixty. When it is more than that, then a Jadhah until seventy-five. When it is more than one hundred and twenty, then a Hiqqah on every fifty, and a Bint Labun on every forty. For sheep; one sheep (is due) for every forty sheeps until one hundred and twenty. When it is more than that, then two sheeps until two hundred. When it is more than that, then three sheeps until three hundred sheep. When it is more than three hundred sheep, then a sheep on every hundred sheep. Then there is nothing until it reaches four hundred. There is no combining the (property of) individuals nor separating the collective (property) fearing Sadaqah. And fr whatever is mixed together that two own, then they are to refer to the total. Neither an old or defective (animal) may be taken for charity."
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 7, Hadith 5
In the year of the Conquest of Mecca, the tribe of Khuza`a killed a man from the tribe of Bam Laith in
revenge for a killed person belonging to them in the Pre-lslamic Period of Ignorance. So Allah's
Apostle got up saying, "Allah held back the (army having) elephants from Mecca, but He let His
Apostle and the believers overpower the infidels (of Mecca). Beware! (Mecca is a sanctuary)! Verily!
Fighting in Mecca was not permitted for anybody before me, nor will it be permitted for anybody after
me; It was permitted for me only for a while (an hour or so) of that day. No doubt! It is at this moment
a sanctuary; its thorny shrubs should not be uprooted; its trees should not be cut down; and its Luqata
(fallen things) should not be picked up except by the one who would look for its owner. And if
somebody is killed, his closest relative has the right to choose one of two things, i.e., either the Blood
money or retaliation by having the killer killed." Then a man from Yemen, called Abu Shah, stood up
and said, "Write that) for me, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)!" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said (to his companions), "Write
that for Abu Shah." Then another man from Quraish got up, saying, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Except Al-
Idhkhir (a special kind of grass) as we use it in our houses and for graves." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said,
"Except Al-idhkkir."
