Ibn `Abbas; said, "Once Lian was mentioned before the Prophet (ﷺ) whereupon `Asim bin Adi said
something and went away. Then a man from his tribe came to him, complaining that he had found a
man with his wife. `Asim said, 'I have not been put to task except for my statement (about Lian).'
`Asim took the man to the Prophet (ﷺ) and the man told him of the state in which he had found his wife.
The man was pale, thin, and of lank hair, while the other man whom he claimed he had seen with his
wife, was brown, fat and had much flesh on his calves. The Prophet (ﷺ) invoked, saying, 'O Allah! Reveal
the truth.' So that lady delivered a child resembling the man whom her husband had mentioned he had
found her with. The Prophet (ﷺ) then made them carry out Lian." Then a man from that gathering asked
Ibn `Abbas, "Was she the same lady regarding which the Prophet (ﷺ) had said, 'If I were to stone to death
someone without witness, I would have stoned this lady'?" Ibn `Abbas said, "No, that was another
lady who, though being a Muslim, used to arouse suspicion by her outright misbehavior. "
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 68, Hadith 59
On the day of the battle of Uhud, the people ran away, leaving the Prophet (ﷺ) , but Abu- Talha was
shielding the Prophet (ﷺ) with his shield in front of him. Abu Talha was a strong, experienced archer who
used to keep his arrow bow strong and well stretched. On that day he broke two or three arrow bows.
If any man passed by carrying a quiver full of arrows, the Prophet (ﷺ) would say to him, "Empty it in
front of Abu Talha." When the Prophet (ﷺ) stated looking at the enemy by raising his head, Abu Talha
said, "O Allah's Prophet! Let my parents be sacrificed for your sake! Please don't raise your head and
make it visible, lest an arrow of the enemy should hit you. Let my neck and chest be wounded instead
of yours." (On that day) I saw `Aisha, the daughter of Abu Bakr and Um Sulaim both lifting their
dresses up so that I was able to see the ornaments of their legs, and they were carrying the water skins
of their arms to pour the water into the mouths of the thirsty people and then go back and fill them and
come to pour the water into the mouths of the people again. (On that day) Abu Talha's sword fell from
his hand twice or thrice.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 36
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "On every Muslim there is enjoined (a compulsory) Sadaqa (alms)." They (the
people) said, "If one has nothing?' He said, "He should work with his hands so that he may benefit
himself and give in charity." They said, "If he cannot work or does not work?" He said, "Then he
should help the oppressed unhappy person (by word or action or both)." They said, "If he does not do
it?" He said, "Then he should enjoin what is good (or said what is reasonable).' They said, "If he does
not do that''' He said, "Then he should refrain from doing evil, for that will be considered for Him as a
Sadaqa (charity) . "
