"The Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said: 'The father of the Dajjal and hid mother, will abide for thirty years without bearing a son. Then a boy shall be born to them, having one eye in which there is some defect, providing little use. His eyes sleep but his heart does not sleep.' Then the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) described his parents for us: 'His father is tall, with little fat, with a nose as if it were a beak. His mother is a bulky woman with long breasts.'" So Abu Bakrah said: "I heard about a child being born to some Jews in Al-Madinah. So Az-Zubair bin Al-'Awwam and I went until we entered upon his parents. They appeared as the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) had described them. We said: 'Do you have any children?' They said: 'We remained for thirty years without any children being born to us, then we bore a boy, having one eye in which there is some defect, providing little use. His eyes sleep but his heart does not sleep.'" He said: "So we were leaving them, when he appeared, glittering in the sunlight in a velvet garment, murmuring something. He uncovered his head and said: 'What were you saying?' We said: 'Did you hear what we were saying?' He said: 'Yes, that my eyes sleep but my heart does not sleep.'"
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 33, Hadith 91
"Al-'Abbas bin 'Abdul-Muttalib entered upon the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) in a state of anger while I was with him, so he said: 'What has angered you?' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is it with us and the Quraish, whenever they meet one another it is with glad faces, and when they meet us they meet us with other than that?'" He said: "So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) became angry, until his face reddened, then he said: 'By the One in Whose Hand is my soul! Faith does not enter a man's heart until he loves you for the sake of Allah, and for the sake of His Messenger.' Then he said: 'O people! Whoever harms my uncle, he has harmed me, for indeed, a man's uncle is not but the Sinw (two or three palm trees will come from a single root, so each is called a Sinw. A man's uncle is like that to his father. That is, he is like his father) of his father."
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 49, Hadith 155
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to us while we were in a gathering, "Give me the oath (Pledge of allegiance for:
(1) Not to join anything in worship along with Allah, (2) Not to steal, (3) Not to commit illegal sexual
intercourse, (4) Not to kill your children, (5) Not to accuse an innocent person (to spread such an
accusation among people), (6) Not to be disobedient (when ordered) to do good deeds. The Prophet (ﷺ)
added: Whoever amongst you fulfill his pledge, his reward will be with Allah, and whoever commits
any of those sins and receives the legal punishment in this world for that sin, then that punishment will
be an expiation for that sin, and whoever commits any of those sins and Allah does not expose him,
then it is up to Allah if He wishes He will punish him or if He wishes, He will forgive him." So we
gave the Pledge for that. (See Hadith No. 17, Vol. 1)
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 93, Hadith 73
Either the owner of the
wares says to the borrower, 'Take these wares and sell them. Buy and
sell with the capital realized according to qirad.' The investor
stipulates increase for himself from the sale of his goods and what
relieves him of expenses in selling it. Or else he says, 'Barter with
these goods and sell. When you are through, buy for me the like of my
goods which I gave you. If there is increase, it is between you and
me. 'It may happen that the investor gives the goods to the agent at a
time in which they are in demand and expensive, and then the agent
returns them while they are cheap and he might have bought them for
only a third of the original price or even less than that. The agent
then has a profit of half the amount by which the price of the wares
has decreased as his portion of the profit. Or he might take the wares
at a time when their price is low, and make use of them until he has a
lot of money. Then those wares become expensive and their price rises
when he returns them, so he buys them for all that he has so that all
his work and concern have been in vain. This is an uncertain
transaction and is not good. If, however, that is not known until it
has happened, then the wage an agent in qirad would be paid for
selling that, is looked at and he is given it for his concern. Then
the money is qirad from the day the money became cash and collected as
coin and it is returned as a qirad like that."
Muwatta Malik Book 32, Hadith 7
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever says at the end of every Fajr prayer, while his feet are still folded, before speaking: ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, Alone without partner, to Him belongs all that exists, and to Him is the praise, He gives life and causes death, and He is powerful over all things, (Lā ilāha illallāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu, yuḥyī wa yumītu, wa huwa `alā kulli shay’in qadīr)’ ten times, then ten good deeds shall be written for him, ten evil deeds shall be wiped away from him, ten degrees shall be raised up for him, and he shall be in security all that day from every disliked thing, and he shall be in protection from Shaitan, and no sin will meet him or destroy him that day, except for associating partners with Allah.”
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 48, Hadith 105
Yahya said that Malik said, "The way of doing things in our
community about which there is no dispute is that women do not swear
in the swearing for the intentional act. If the murdered man only has
female relatives, the women have no right to swear for blood and no
pardon in murder."
Yahya said that Malik said about a man who
is murdered, "If the paternal relatives of the murdered man or his
mawali say, 'We swear and we demand our companion's blood,' that is
their right."
Malik said, "If the women want to pardon him,
they cannot do that. The paternal relatives and mawali are entitled to
do that more than them because they are the ones who demand blood and
swear for it."
Malik said, "If the paternal relatives or
mawali pardon after they demand blood and the women refuse and say,
'We will not abandon our right against the murderer of our companion,'
the women are more entitled to that because whoever takes retaliation
is more entitled than the one who leaves it among the women and
paternal relatives when the murder is established and killing
obliged."
Malik said, "At least two claimants must swear in
murder. The oaths are repeated by them until they swear fifty oaths,
then they have the right to blood. That is how things are done in our
community."
Malik said, "When people beat a man and he dies
in their hands, they are all slain for him. If he dies after their
beating, there is swearing. If there is swearing, it is only against
one man and only he is slain. We have never known the swearing to be
against more than one man."
Malik spoke about a slave who had
his hand or foot broken and then the break mended . He said, "The one
who injured him is not obliged to pay anything. If that break causes
him loss or scar, the one who injured him must pay according to what
he diminished of the value of the slave."
Malik said, "What
is done in our community about retaliation between slaves is that it
is like retaliation between freemen. The life of the slave-girl for
the life of the slave, and her injury for his injury. When a slave
intentionally kills a slave, the master of the murdered slave has a
choice. If he wishes, he kills him, and if he wishes, he takes the
blood-money. If he takes the blood-money, he takes the value of his
slave. If the owner of the slave who killed wishes to give the value
of the murdered slave, he does it. If he wishes, he surrenders his
slave. If he surrenders him, he is not obliged to do anything other
than that. When the owner of the murdered slave takes the slave who
murdered and is satisifed with him, he must not kill him. All
retaliations between slaves for cutting off of the hand and foot and
such things are dealt with in the same way as in the murder."
Malik said about a muslim slave who injures a jew or christian, "If
the master of the slave wishes to pay blood-money for him according to
the injury, he does it. Or else he surrenders him and he is sold, and
the jew or christian is given the blood-money of the injury or all the
price of the slave if the blood-money is greater than his price. The
jew or christian is not given a muslim slave."
Muwatta Malik Book 44, Hadith 3
I called on Jabir bin `Abdullah Al-Ansari and said to him, "Relate to me what you have heard from
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ." He said, "I accompanied him on one of the journeys." (Abu `Aqil said, "I do not
know whether that journey was for the purpose of Jihad or `Umra.") "When we were returning," Jabir
continued, "the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Whoever wants to return earlier to his family, should hurry up.' We set
off and I was on a black red tainted camel having no defect, and the people were behind me. While I
was in that state the camel stopped suddenly (because of exhaustion). On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me,
'O Jabir, wait!' Then he hit it once with his lash and it started moving on a fast pace. He then said,
'Will you sell the camel?' I replied in the affirmative when we reached Medina, and the Prophet (ﷺ) went
to the Mosque along with his companions. I, too, went to him after tying the camel on the pavement at
the Mosque gate. Then I said to him, 'This is your camel.' He came out and started examining the
camel and saying, 'The camel is ours.' Then the Prophet (ﷺ) sent some Awaq (i.e. an amount) of gold
saying, 'Give it to Jabir.' Then he asked, 'Have you taken the full price (of the camel)?' I replied in the
affirmative. He said, 'Both the price and the camel are for you.' ''
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 56, Hadith 77
There was a dispute between Abu Bakr and `Umar, and Abu Bakr made `Umar angry. So `Umar left
angrily. Abu Bakr followed him, requesting him to ask forgiveness (of Allah) for him, but `Umar
refused to do so and closed his door in Abu Bakr's face. So Abu Bakr went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) while
we were with him. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "This friend of yours must have quarrelled (with somebody)."
In the meantime `Umar repented and felt sorry for what he had done, so he came, greeted (those who
were present) and sat with the Prophet (ﷺ) and related the story to him. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) became angry and
Abu Bakr started saying, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! By Allah, I was more at fault (than `Umar)." Allah's
Apostle said, "Are you (people) leaving for me my companion? (Abu Bakr), Are you (people) leaving
for me my companion? When I said, 'O people I am sent to you all as the Messenger of Allah,' you said,
'You tell a lie.' while Abu Bakr said, 'You have spoken the truth ."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 162
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard one of the
people of knowledge say, "A man and wife should not share in one
sacrificial animal. Each should sacrifice an animal separately."
Malik was asked about whether someone who had been entrusted with
an animal for him to sacrifice on hajj, who went into ihram for umra,
should sacrifice it when he came out of ihram or postpone it so that
he sacrificed it at the time of the hajj while in the meantime he came
out of ihram from his umra. He said, "He should postpone it so that he
may sacrifice it at the time of the hajj, and meanwhile come out of
ihram from his umra."
Malik said, "If it is judged that some-
one must offer an animal for having killed game, or for any other
reason, this animal can only be sacrificed at Makka, since Allah, the
Blessed and Exalted, says, 'a sacrificial animal which will reach the
Kaba.' The fasting or sadaqa that is considered equivalent to
offering a sacrifice can be done outside Makka, and the person who is
doing it can do it wherever he likes."
Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 176
Abu Bakr As-Siddiq sent for me when the people of Yamama had been killed (i.e., a number of the
Prophet's Companions who fought against Musailima). (I went to him) and found `Umar bin Al-
Khattab sitting with him. Abu Bakr then said (to me), "`Umar has come to me and said: "Casualties
were heavy among the Qurra' of the Qur'an (i.e. those who knew the Qur'an by heart) on the day of
the Battle of Yamama, and I am afraid that more heavy casualties may take place among the Qurra'
on other battlefields, whereby a large part of the Qur'an may be lost. Therefore I suggest, you (Abu
Bakr) order that the Qur'an be collected." I said to `Umar, "How can you do something which Allah's
Apostle did not do?" `Umar said, "By Allah, that is a good project." `Umar kept on urging me to
accept his proposal till Allah opened my chest for it and I began to realize the good in the idea which
`Umar had realized." Then Abu Bakr said (to me). 'You are a wise young man and we do not have any
suspicion about you, and you used to write the Divine Inspiration for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). So you should
search for (the fragmentary scripts of) the Qur'an and collect it in one book." By Allah If they had
ordered me to shift one of the mountains, it would not have been heavier for me than this ordering me
to collect the Qur'an. Then I said to Abu Bakr, "How will you do something which Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did
not do?" Abu Bakr replied, "By Allah, it is a good project." Abu Bakr kept on urging me to accept his
idea until Allah opened my chest for what He had opened the chests of Abu Bakr and `Umar. So I
started looking for the Qur'an and collecting it from (what was written on) palme stalks, thin white
stones and also from the men who knew it by heart, till I found the last Verse of Surat at-Tauba
(Repentance) with Abi Khuzaima Al-Ansari, and I did not find it with anybody other than him. The
Verse is:
'Verily there has come unto you an Apostle (Muhammad) from amongst yourselves. It grieves him
that you should receive any injury or difficulty..(till the end of Surat-Baraa' (at-Tauba) (9.128-129).
Then the complete manuscripts (copy) of the Qur'an remained with Abu Bakr till he died, then with
`Umar till the end of his life, and then with Hafsa, the daughter of `Umar.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 66, Hadith 8
The daughter of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) sent (a messenger) to the Prophet (ﷺ) requesting him to come as her
child was dying (or was gasping), but the Prophet (ﷺ) returned the messenger and told him to convey his
greeting to her and say: "Whatever Allah takes is for Him and whatever He gives, is for Him, and
everything with Him has a limited fixed term (in this world) and so she should be patient and hope for
Allah's reward." She again sent for him, swearing that he should come. The Prophet (ﷺ) got up, and so did
Sa`d bin 'Ubada, Mu`adh bin Jabal, Ubai bin Ka`b, Zaid bin Thabit and some other men. The child
was brought to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) while his breath was disturbed in his chest (the sub-narrator thinks that
Usama added: ) as if it was a leather water-skin. On that the eyes of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) started
shedding tears. Sa`d said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! What is this?" He replied, "It is mercy which Allah has
lodged in the hearts of His slaves, and Allah is merciful only to those of His slaves who are merciful
(to others).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 23, Hadith 44
"Abu Talhah said to Umm Sulaim: 'I heard the voice of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sounding weak and I sensed some hunger in it. Do you have anything? She said: 'Yes.' So she got some loaves of wheat bread, then she took out a Khimar of hers, and put the bread in it. Then she put it under my arm, and wrapped my upper body with part of it, and she sent me to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)." He said: "So I brought it to him, and I found the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sitting in the Masjid, and there were people with him. So I stood among them, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Has Abu Talhah sent you?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'With food?' I said: 'Yes.' So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to those with him: 'Stand up.'" So they left, and I left in front of them, until I came to Abu Talhah, and I told him (that they were coming). Abu Talhah said: 'O Umm Sulaim! The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is coming with people, and we don't have anything to feed them.' Umm Sulaim said: 'Allah and His Messenger know best.'" He said: "So Abu Talhah departed until he met up with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). The Messenger of Allah came, while Abu Talhah was with him, until they entered, when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Come O Umm Sulaim! What do you have?' So she brought him that bread, and he (ﷺ) ordered that it be broken into pieces. Umm Sulaim poured some butter from an oil-skin upon them, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited whatever Allah willed for him to say over it. Then he said: 'Let ten come.' So ten were admitted, and they ate until they were full, and then they left. Then he said: 'Let ten come.' So ten were admitted, and they ate until they were full, and they left. Then he said: 'Let ten come.' So ten were admitted, and they ate until they were full, and there were seventy or eighty men."
