When the delegate of `Abd Al-Qais came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), he said, "Who are the delegate?" They
said, "The delegate are from the tribe of Rabi`a." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Welcome, O the delegate, and
welcome! O people! Neither you will have any disgrace nor will you regret." They said, "O Allah's
Apostle! Between you and us there are the infidels of the tribe of Mudar, so please order us to do
something good (religious deeds) that by acting on them we may enter Paradise, and that we may
inform (our people) whom we have left behind, about it." They also asked (the Prophet) about drinks.
He forbade them from four things and ordered them to do four things. He ordered them to believe in
Allah, and asked them, "Do you know what is meant by belief in Allah?" They said, "Allah and His
Apostle know best." He said, ''To testify that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, the
One, Who has no partners with Him, and that Muhammad is Allah's Messenger (ﷺ); and to offer prayers
perfectly and to pay Zakat." (the narrator thinks that fasting in Ramadan is included), "and to give
one-fifth of the war booty (to the state)." Then he forbade four (drinking utensils): Ad-Duba', Al56
Hantam, Al-Mazaffat and An-Naqir, or probably, Al-Muqaiyar. And then the Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Remember all these things by heart and preach it to those whom you have left behind."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 95, Hadith 20
When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) emigrated to Medina, Abu Bakr and Bilal had a fever. I entered upon them and
said, "O my father! How are you? O Bilal! How are you?" Whenever Abu Bakr got the fever he used
to say, "Everybody is staying alive with his people, yet death is nearer to him than his shoe laces."
And when fever deserted Bilal, he would recite (two poetic verses): "Would that I could stay
overnight in a valley wherein I would be surrounded by Idhkhir and Jalil (two kinds of good smelling
grass). Would that one day I could drink of the water of Majinna, and would that Shama and Tafil
(two mountains at Mecca) would appear to me!" I went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and informed him about
that. He said, "O Allah! Make us love Medina as much or more than we love Mecca, and make it
healthy, and bless its Sa and its Mudd, and take away its fever and put it in Al-Juhfa." (See Hadith No
558) .
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 75, Hadith 37
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.
