“Every child
who
is attributed to his father after his father to whom he is
attributed
has died, and his heirs attributed him to him after he
died, he ruled
that* whoever was born to a slave woman whom he owned
at the time when
he had intercourse with her, he should be named
after the one to whom
he was attributed, but he has no share of any
inheritance that was
distributed previously. Whatever inheritance he
finds has not yet been
distributed, he will have a share of it. But
he cannot be named after
his father if the man whom he claimed as his
father did not
acknowledge him. If he as born to a slave woman whom
his father did
not own, or to a free woman with whom he committed
adultery, then he
cannot be named after him and he does not inherit
from him, even if
the one whom he claims as his father acknowledges
him. So he is an
illegitimate child who belongs to his mother’s
people, whoever they
are, whether she is a free woman or a slave.”
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 23, Hadith 28
A man amongst us begot a boy whom he named Al-Qasim. On that the Ansar said, (to the man), "We
will never call you Abu-al-Qasim and will never please you with this blessed title." So, he went to the
Prophet and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I have begotten a boy whom I named Al-Qasim and the Ansar
said, 'We will never call you Abu-al-Qasim, nor will we please you with this title.' " The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"The Ansar have done well. Name by my name, but do not name by my Kunya, for I am Qasim."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 57, Hadith 24
Yahya related to me from Malik from Wahb ibn Kaysan that Muhammad
ibn Amr ibn Ata said, "I was sitting with Abdullah ibn Abbas when a
Yemeni man came in. He said, 'Peace be upon you, and the mercy of
Allah and His blessing' (as-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa
barakatuhu), and then he added something more to that. Ibn Abbas said
(and at that time his eyesight had gone), 'Who is this?' People said,
'This is a Yemeni who has come to see you,' and they introduced him.
Ibn Abbas said, 'The greeting ends with the word blessing.' "
Yahya said that Malik was asked, "Does one greet a woman?" He said,
"As for an old woman, I do not disapprove of it. As for a young woman,
I do not like it."
Muwatta Malik Book 53, Hadith 2
Sahl ibn AbuUmamah said that he and his father (AbuUmamah) visited Anas ibn Malik at Medina during the time (rule) of Umar ibn AbdulAziz when he (Anas ibn Malik) was the governor of Medina. He was praying a very short prayer as if it were the prayer of a traveller or near it.
When he gave a greeting, my father said: May Allah have mercy on you! Tell me about this prayer: Is it obligatory or supererogatory?
He said: It is obligatory; it is the prayer performed by the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). I did not make a mistake except in one thing that I forgot.
He said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say: Do not impose austerities on yourselves so that austerities will be imposed on you, for people have imposed austerities on themselves and Allah imposed austerities on them. Their survivors are to be found in cells and monasteries. (Then he quoted:) "Monasticism, they invented it; we did not prescribe it for them."
Next day he went out in the morning and said: will you not go out for a ride, so that you may see something and take a lesson from it?
He said: Yes. Then all of them rode away and reached a land whose inhabitants had perished, passed away and died. The roofs of the town had fallen in.
He asked: Do you know this land? I said: Who acquainted me with it and its inhabitants? (Anas said:) This is the land of the people whom oppression and envy destroyed. Envy extinguishes the light of good deeds, and oppression confirms or falsifies it. The eye commits fornication, and the palm of the hand, the foot, body, tongue and private part of the body confirm it or deny it.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 43, Hadith 132
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The believers will be kept (waiting) on the Day of
Resurrection so long that they will become worried and say, "Let us
ask somebody to intercede far us with our Lord so that He may relieve
us from our place.
Then they will go to Adam and say, 'You are Adam, the father of the
people. Allah created you with His Own Hand and made you reside in His
Paradise and ordered His angels to prostrate before you, and taught
you the names of all things will you intercede for us with your Lord
so that He may relieve us from this place of ours? Adam will say, 'I
am not fit for this undertaking.' He will mention his mistakes he had
committed, i.e., his eating off the tree though he had been forbidden
to do so. He will add, 'Go to Noah, the first prophet sent by Allah to
the people of the Earth.' The people will go to Noah who will say, 'I
am not fit for this undertaking' He will mention his mistake which he
had done, i.e., his asking his Lord without knowledge.' He will say
(to them), 'Go to Abraham, Khalil Ar-Rahman.' They will go to Abraham
who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking. He would mention
three words by which he told a lie, and say (to them). 'Go to Moses, a
slave whom Allah gave the Torah and spoke to, directly and brought
near Him, for conversation.'
They will go to Moses who will say, 'I am not fit for this
undertaking. He will mention his mistake he made, i.e., killing a
person, and will say (to them), 'Go to Jesus, Allah's slave and His
Apostle, and a soul created by Him and His Word.' (Be: And it was.)
They will go to Jesus who will say, 'I am not fit for this undertaking
but you'd better go to Muhammad the slave whose past and future sins
have been forgiven by Allah.' So they will come to me, and I will ask
my Lord's permission to enter His House and then I will be permitted.
When I see Him I will fall down in prostration before Him, and He will
leave me (in prostration) as long as He will, and then He will say, 'O
Muhammad, lift up your head and speak, for you will be listened to,
and intercede, for your intercession will be accepted, and ask (for
anything) for it will be granted:' Then I will raise my head and
glorify my Lord with certain praises which He has taught me. Allah
will put a limit for me (to intercede for a certain type of people) I
will take them out and make them enter Paradise." (Qatada said: I
heard Anas saying that), the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "I will go out and take
them out of Hell (Fire) and let them enter Paradise, and then I will
return and ask my Lord for permission to enter His House and I will be
permitted.
When I will see Him I will fall down in prostration before Him and He
will leave me in prostration as long as He will let me (in that
state), and then He will say, 'O Muhammad, raise your head and speak,
for you will be listened to, and intercede, for your intercession will
be accepted, and ask, your request will be granted.' " The Prophet (ﷺ)
added, "So I will raise my head and glorify and praise Him as He has
taught me. Then I will intercede and He will put a limit for me (to
intercede for a certain type of people). I will take them out and let
them enter Paradise." (Qatada added: I heard Anas saying that) the
Prophet said, 'I will go out and take them out of Hell (Fire) and let
them enter Paradise, and I will return for the third time and will ask
my Lord for permission to enter His house, and I will be allowed to
enter.
When I see Him, I will fall down in prostration before Him, and will
remain in prostration as long as He will, and then He will say, 'Raise
your head, O Muhammad, and speak, for you will be listened to, and
intercede, for your intercession will be accepted, and ask, for your
request will be granted.' So I will raise my head and praise Allah as
He has taught me and then I will intercede and He will put a limit for
me (to intercede for a certain type of people). I will take them out
and let them enter Paradise." (Qatada said: I heard Anas saying that)
the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "So I will go out and take them out of Hell (Fire)
and let them enter Paradise, till none will remain in the Fire except
those whom Quran will imprison (i.e., those who are destined for
eternal life in the fire)." The narrator then recited the Verse:-- "It
may be that your Lord will raise you to a Station of Praise and
Glory.' (17.79) The narrator added: This is the Station of Praise
and Glory which Allah has promised to your Prophet.
