Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his
father that A'isha, umm al-muminin said, "My paternal uncle by
suckling came to me and I refused to give him permission to enter
until I had asked the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, about it. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, came and I asked him about it. He said, 'He is
your paternal uncle, so give him permission.' So I said, 'Messenger of
Allah! The woman nursed me not the man.' He said, 'He is your paternal
uncle, so let him enter.' "
A'isha said, "That was after the
veil had been imposed on us."
A'isha added, "What is haram by
birth is made haram by suckling."
Muwatta Malik Book 30, Hadith 2
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, " Horses are kept for one of three purposes: A man may keep them (for Allah's
Cause) to receive a reward in the Hereafter; another may keep them as a means of protection; and a
third may keep them to be a burden for him. As for the man for whom the horse is a source of reward,
he is the one who ties it for Allah's Cause, and he ties it with a long rope in a pasture or a garden, then,
whatever it eats or drinks in that pasture or garden will be added to his good deeds. And if it breaks its
rope and jumps over one or two hills, then, for all its footsteps and its manure, good deeds will be
written for him. And if it passes by a river and drinks of its water though its owner had no intention to
water it from that river, even then he will have good deeds written for him. So that horse will be (a
source of) reward for such a man.
If a man ties a horse for earning his livelihood and abstaining from asking others for help and he does
not forget Allah's right, i.e. pays its Zakat and gives it to be used in Allah's Cause, then that horse will
be a means of protection for him. But if a man ties it out of pride and to show off and to excite others,
then that horse will be a burden (of sins) for him." Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was asked regarding donkeys.
He replied, "Nothing has been revealed to me except this comprehensive Verse which includes
everything:
'So whoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a smallest ant) shall see it; and whoever
does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a smallest ant) shall see it.' (99.7-8)
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 484
That his father had told him that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) set out for Hajj and so did his companions. He sent a
batch of his companions by another route and Abu Qatada was one of them. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to them,
"Proceed along the seashore till we meet all together." So, they took the route of the seashore, and
when they started all of them assumed Ihram except Abu Qatada. While they were proceeding on, his
companions saw a group of onagers. Abu Qatada chased the onagers and attacked and wounded a sheonager.
They got down and ate some of its meat and said to each other: "How do we eat the meat of
the game while we are in a state of Ihram?" So, we (they) carried the rest of the she-onager's meat, and
when they met Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) they asked, saying, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We assumed Ihram with the
exception of Abu Qatada and we saw (a group) of onagers. Abu Qatada attacked them and wounded a
she-onager from them. Then we got down and ate from its meat. Later, we said, (to each other), 'How
do we eat the meat of the game and we are in a state of Ihram?' So, we carried the rest of its meat. The
Prophet asked, "Did anyone of you order Abu Qatada to attack it or point at it?" They replied in the
negative. He said, "Then eat what is left of its meat."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 28, Hadith 4
concerning the Verse: 'Do not prevent them' (2.232) Ma'qil bin Yasar told me that it was revealed in
his connection. He said, "I married my sister to a man and he divorced her, and when her days of 'Idda
(three menstrual periods) were over, the man came again and asked for her hand, but I said to him, 'I
married her to you and made her your bed (your wife) and favored you with her, but you divorced her.
Now you come to ask for her hand again? No, by Allah, she will never go back to you (again)!' That
man was not a bad man and his wife wanted to go back to him. So Allah revealed this Verse: 'Do not
prevent them.' (2.232) So I said, 'Now I will do it (let her go back to him), O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)."So he
married her to him again.
