Yahya related to me from Malik, from Abu'n-Nadr, the mawla of
'Umar ibn 'Ubaydullah at-Taymi, from Nafi, the mawla of Abu Qatada al-
Ansari, that Abu Qatada was once with the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace. When they got to one of the roads
to Makka he fell behind with some companions of his who were muhrim,
while he was not. Then he saw a wild ass, so he got on his mount and
asked his companions to give him his whip but they refused. Then he
asked them for his spear and they refused to give it to him. So he
took hold of it and attacked the ass and killed it. Some of the
companions of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, ate from it, and others refused. When they had caught up
with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
they asked him about it and he said, "It is food that Allah has fed
you with."
Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 78
Abu Hurairah said that a man came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: I saw (in my dream) a piece of cloud from which ghee and honey were dropping. I saw the people spreading their hands. Some of them took much and some a little. I also saw a rope hanging from Heaven to Earth. I saw, Messenger of Allah, that you caught hold of it and ascended by it. Then another man caught hold of it and ascended it. Then another man caught hold of it and ascended it. Then another man caught hold of it, but it broke, and then it was joined and he ascended it.
AbuBakr said: May my parents be sacrificed for you, if you allow, I shall interpret it.
He said: Interpret it. He said: The piece of cloud is the cloud of Islam; the ghee and honey that were dropping from it are the Quran, which contains softness and sweetness. Those who received much or little of it are those who learn much or little of the Quran. The rope hanging from Heaven to Earth is the truth which you are following. You catch hold of it and then Allah will raise you to Him. Then another man will catch hold of it and ascend it, Then another man will catch hold of it and it will break. But it will be joined and he will ascend it. Tell me. Messenger of Allah, whether I am right or wrong.
He said: You are partly right and partly wrong. He said: I adjure you by Allah, you should tell me where I am wrong.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Do not take an oath.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 42, Hadith 37
“The most of what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) supplicated with during the afternoon at Arafat while standing was: ‘O Allah to You is the praise like the one You say, and better than what we say. O Allah, for You is all my Salat, my sacrifice, my living and my dying. And to You is my return, and to You, my Lord, belongs my inheritance. O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave, the whispering of the chest, and the dividing of the affair. O Allah, indeed, I seek refuge in You from the evil of what the wind brings (Allāhumma lakal-ḥamdu, kalladhī taqūlu, wa khairan mimmā naqūl. Allāhumma laka ṣalātī wa nusukī, wa maḥyāya wa mamātī, ilaika ma’ābī, wa laka, rabbi, turāthī. Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min `adhābil-qabri, wa waswasatiṣ-ṣadri, wa shatātil-amr. Allāhumma innī a`ūdhu bika min sharri mā tajī’u bihir-rīḥ).”
