Malik related to me that Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi Talha heard
Anas ibn Malik say, "Abu Talha had the greatest amount of property in
palm-trees among the Ansar in Madina. The dearest of his properties to
him was Bayruha which was in front of the mosque. The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, used to go into it and
drink from the pleasant water which was in it."
Anas
continued, "When this ayat was sent down 'You will not obtain
rightness of action until you expend of what you love,' (Sura 2 ayat
l76), Abu Talha went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, and said, 'Messenger of Allah! Allah, the
Blessed, the Exalted, has said, "You will not obtain until you expend
of what you love." The property which I love the best is Bayruha. It
is sadaqa for Allah. I hope for its good and for it to be stored up
with Allah. Place it wherever you wish, Messengerof Allah. ' "
"The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
said, 'Well done! That is property which profits! That is property
which profits. I have heard what you have said about it and I think
that you should give it to your relatives.' Abu Talha said, 'I will do
it, Messenger of Allah!' Abu Talha therefore divided it among his
relatives and the children of his paternal uncle."
Muwatta Malik Book 58, Hadith 2
The people passed by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) with a Jew who was blackened with charcoal and who was being flogged.
He called them and said: Is this the prescribed punishment for a fornicator?
They said: Yes. He then called on a learned man among them and asked him: I adjure you by Allah Who revealed the Torah to Moses, do you find this prescribed punishment for a fornicator in your divine Book?
He said: By Allah, no. If you had not adjured me about this, I should not have informed you. We find stoning to be prescribed punishment for a fornicator in our Divine Book. But it (fornication) became frequent in our people of rank; so when we seized a person of rank, we left him alone, and when we seized a weak person, we inflicted the prescribed punishment on him. So we said: Come, let us agree on something which may be enforced equally on people of higher and lower rank. So we agreed to blacken the face of a criminal with charcoal, and flog him, and we abandoned stoning.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then said: O Allah, I am the first to give life to Thy command which they have killed. So he commanded regarding him (the Jew) and he was stoned to death.
Allah Most High then sent down: "O Apostle, let not those who race one another into unbelief, make thee grieve..." up to "They say: If you are given this, take it, but if not, beware!...." up to "And if any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) unbelievers," about Jews, up to "And if any do fail to judge by (the right of) what Allah hath revealed, they are no better than) wrong-doers" about Jews: and revealed the verses up to "And if any do fail to judge by (the light of) what Allah hath revealed, they are (no better than) those who rebel." About this he said: This whole verse was revealed about the infidels.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 40, Hadith 98
When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went on a journey, the last member of his family he saw was Fatimah, and the first he visited on his return was Fatimah. Once when he returned from an expedition she had hung up a hair-cloth, or a curtain, at her door, and adorned al-Hasan and al-Husayn with silver bracelets. So when he arrived, he did not enter. Thinking that he had been prevented from entering by what he had seen, she tore down the curtain, unfastened the bracelets from the boys and cut them off.
They went weeping to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and when he had taken them from them, he said: Take this to so and so's family. Thawban. In Medina, these are my family, and I did not like them to enjoy their good things in the present life. Buy Fatimah a necklace or asb, Thawban, and two ivory bracelets.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 35, Hadith 55
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "A man who never did any good deed, said that if he died, his family should burn
him and throw half the ashes of his burnt body in the earth and the other half in the sea, for by Allah,
if Allah should get hold of him, He would inflict such punishment on him as He would not inflict on
anybody among the people. But Allah ordered the sea to collect what was in it (of his ashes) and
similarly ordered the earth to collect what was in it (of his ashes). Then Allah said (to the recreated
man ), 'Why did you do so?' The man replied, 'For being afraid of You, and You know it (very well).'
So Allah forgave him."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 97, Hadith 131
Once I went to Abu- Sa`id Al-Khudri and asked him, "Won't you come with us to the date-palm trees
to have a talk?" So Abu Sa`id went out and I asked him, "Tell me what you heard from the Prophet (ﷺ)
about the Night of Qadr." Abu Sa`id replied, "Once Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) performed I`tikaf (seclusion) on
the first ten days of the month of Ramadan and we did the same with him. Gabriel came to him and
said, 'The night you are looking for is ahead of you.' So the Prophet (ﷺ) performed the I`tikaf in the
middle (second) ten days of the month of Ramadan and we too performed I`tikaf with him. Gabriel
came to him and said, 'The night which you are looking for is ahead of you.' In the morning of the
20th of Ramadan the Prophet (ﷺ) delivered a sermon saying, 'Whoever has performed I`tikaf with me
should continue it. I have been shown the Night of "Qadr", but have forgotten its date, but it is in the
odd nights of the last ten nights. I saw in my dream that I was prostrating in mud and water.' In those
days the roof of the mosque was made of branches of date-palm trees. At that time the sky was clear
and no cloud was visible, but suddenly a cloud came and it rained. The Prophet (ﷺ) led us in the prayer
and I saw the traces of mud on the forehead and on the nose of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). So it was the
confirmation of that dream."
