that `Umar bin Nafi` told him that Nafi`, Maula `Abdullah had heard `Umar saying, "I heard Allah's
Apostle forbidding Al-Qaza'." 'Ubaidullah added: I said, "What is Al-Qaza'?" 'Ubaidullah pointed
(towards his head) to show us and added, "Nafi` said, 'It is when a boy has his head shaved leaving a
tuft of hair here and a tuft of hair there." Ubaidullah pointed towards his forehead and the sides of his
head. 'Ubaidullah was asked, "Does this apply to both girls and boys?" He said, "I don't know, but
Nafi` said, 'The boy.'" 'Ubaidullah added, "I asked Nafi` again, and he said, 'As for leaving hair on
the temples and the back part of the boy's head, there is no harm, but Al-Qaza' is to leave a tuft of hair
on his forehead unshaved while there is no hair on the rest of his head, and also to leave hair on either
side of his head.'"
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 77, Hadith 135
A woman came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "I have come to present myself to you (for marriage)." She
kept standing for a long period during which period the Prophet (ﷺ) looked at her carefully. When she
stayed for a Long period, a man said to the Prophet (ﷺ) "If you are not in need of her, then marry her to
me." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Have you got anything to give her (as Mahr)?" The man said, "No." The
Prophet said, "Go (to your house) and search for something." The man went and came back to say,
"By Allah, I could not find anything." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Go again and search for something, even if
it be an iron ring." He went again and came back saying, "No, by Allah, I could not get even an iron
ring." The man had only an Izar and had no Rida' (upper garment). He said, "I will give her my Izar
as Mahr." On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Your Izar? If she wears it, nothing of it will remain on you,
and if you wear it nothing of it will be on her" The man went aside and sat down When the Prophet (ﷺ)
saw him leaving (after a while), he called back and asked. "How much Quran do you know (by
heart)? He said, 'I know such and such Suras," naming some Suras. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "I marry
her to you for the amount of Quran you know (by heart).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 77, Hadith 88
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that Abdullah
ibn az-Zubayr used to say, "Know that the whole of Arafa is a
standing-place except for the middle of Urana, and that the wholeof
Muzdalifa is a standing-place except for the middle of Muhassir."
Malik said, "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted says, 'There is to be
no rafath, no fusuq and no jidal during the hajj.' " (Sura 2 ayat
197).
He added, "Rafath is sexual relations with women, and
Allah knows best. Allah, the Blessed and Exalted says, 'Rafath with
your women is permitted to you on the night of the fast.' (Sura 2 ayat
197). Fusuq are sacrifices made to idols, and Allah knows best. Allah,
the Blessed and Exalted, says, 'Or a fisq offered up to other than
Allah.' (Sura 2 ayat 197) Jidal (arguing) during the hajj refers to
when the Quraysh used to stand near the mashar al-haram at Quzah in
Muzdalifa, while the Arabs and others would stand at Arafa, and they
would argue about who was the more correct. Allah, the Blessed and
Exalted, says, 'And we appointed a method of sacrifice for every
nation, which they followed, so let them not dispute with you about
the matter, and call to your Lord. Surely you are on a straight
guidance.' (Sura 22 ayat 67) This is what jidal refers to in our
opinion, and Allah knows best. This I have heard from the people of
knowledge."
