Once while I was in a state of fatigue (because of severe hunger), I
met 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, so I asked him to recite a verse from
Allah's Book to me. He entered his house and interpreted it to me.
(Then I went out and) after walking for a short distance, I fell on my
face because of fatigue and severe hunger. Suddenly I saw Allah's
Apostle standing by my head. He said, "O Abu Huraira!" I replied,
"Labbaik, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), and Sadaik!" Then he held me by the hand,
and made me get up. Then he came to know what I was suffering from. He
took me to his house, and ordered a big bowl of milk for me. I drank
thereof and he said, "Drink more, O Abu Hirr!" So I drank again,
whereupon he again said, "Drink more." So I drank more till my belly
became full and looked like a bowl. Afterwards I met 'Umar and
mentioned to him what had happened to me, and said to him, "Somebody,
who had more right than you, O 'Umar, took over the case. By Allah, I
asked you to recite a Verse to me while I knew it better than you." On
that Umar said to me, "By Allah, if I admitted and entertained you, it
would have been dearer to me than having nice red camels.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 70, Hadith 3
Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Amir ibn Sad ibn Abi
Waqqas that his father said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, came to me to treat me for a pain which
became hard to bear in the year of the farewell hajj. I said,
'Messenger of Allah, you can see how far the pain has reached me. I
have property and only my daughter inherits from me. Shall I give two
thirds of my property as sadaqa?' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, 'No.' I said, 'Half?' He said,
'No.' Then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, 'A third, and a third is a lot. Leaving your heirs rich
is better than leaving them poor to beg from people. You never spend
anything on maintenance desiring the Face of Allah by it, but that you
are rewarded for it, even what you appoint for your wife.' Sad said,
'Messenger of Allah, will I be left here in Makka after my companions
have departed for Madina?' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, 'If you are left behind, and do sound deeds
you will increase your degree and elevation by them. Perhaps you will
be left behind so that some people may benefit by you and others may
be harmed by you. O Allah! complete their hijra for my companions, and
do not turn them back on their heels. The unfortunate one is Said ibn
Khawla.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, was distressed on his account for he had died at Makka."
Yahya said that he heard Malik speak about a man who willed a
third of his property to a man and said as well, "My slave will serve
so-and-so (another man) for as long as he lives, then he is free,"
then that was looked into, and the slave was found to be a third of
the property of the deceased. Malik said, "The service of the slave is
evaluated. Then the two of them divide it between them. The one who
was willed a third takes his third, as a share, and the one who was
willed the service of the slave takes what was evaluated for him of
the slave's service. Each of them takes, from the service of the slave
or from his wage if he has a wage, according to his share. If the one
who was given the service of the slave for as long as he lived dies,
then the slave is freed."
Yahya said that he heard Malik
speak about someone who willed his third and said "So-and-so has such-
and-such, and so-and-so has such-and-such," naming some of his
property, and his heirs protested that it was more than a third."
Malik said, "The heirs then have an option between giving the
beneficiaries their full bequests and taking the rest of the property
of the deceased, or between dividing among the beneficiaries the third
of the property of the deceased and surrendering to them their third.
If they wish, their rights in it reach as far as they reach."
Muwatta Malik Book 37, Hadith 4
The Prophet used to say supplication in these words: "Allahumma inni a'udhu bika minal-kasali, walharami, wal-jubni, wal-'ajzi, wa min fitnatil-mahya wal-mamat. (O Allah, I seek refuge in You from laziness, old age, cowardice, and incapacity, and from the trials of life and death.)"
Sunan an-Nasa'i Book 50, Hadith 62
"During the year of the Farewell Pilgrimage, I heard the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) saying in the Khutbah: 'Indeed Allah, Most Blessed and Most High, has given the right due to everyone deserving a right. So there is no will for an heir, the child is for the bed, and for the fornicator is the stone, and their reckoning is for Allah, Most High. And whoever claims someone other than his father, or an affiliation with other than his Mawali, then upon him is the continued curse of Allah until the Day of Judgment. The wife is not to spend from her husband's house except with her husband's permission.' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Not even food?' He said: 'That is the most virtuous of our wealth.' And he said: 'The borrowed is to be returned, the endowment is to be refunded and the debt is to be repaid, and the guarantor is responsible.'"
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 30, Hadith 5
A Jew whose face had been slapped (by someone), came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Muhammad! A
man from your Ansari companions slapped me. " The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Call him". They called him and
the Prophet (ﷺ) asked him, "Why did you slap his face?" He said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! While I was passing
by the Jews, I heard him saying, 'By Him Who chose Moses above all the human beings.' I said
(protestingly), 'Even above Muhammad?' So I became furious and slapped him." The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Do not give me preference to other prophets, for the people will become unconscious on the Day of
Resurrection and I will be the first to gain conscious, and behold, I will Find Moses holding one of the
pillars of the Throne (of Allah). Then I will not know whether he has become conscious before me or
he has been exempted because of his unconsciousness at the mountain (during his worldly life) which
he received."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 87, Hadith 55
