Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
used to pay the zakat al-fitr for those slaves of his that were at
Wadi'l-Qura and Khaybar.
Yahya related to me that Malik said,
"The best that I have heard about the zakat al-fitr is that a man has
to pay for every person that he is responsible for supporting and whom
he must support. He has to pay forall his mukatabs, his mudabbars, and
his ordinary slaves, whether they are present or absent, as long as
they are muslim, and whether or not they are fortrade. However, he
does not have to pay zakat on any of them that are not muslim."
Malik said, concerning a runaway slave, "I think that his master
should pay the zakat fo rhim whether or not he knows where he is, if
it has not been long since the slave ran away and his master hopes
that he is still alive and will return. If it has been a long time
since he ran away and his master has despaired of him returning then I
do not think that he should pay zakat for him.'
Malik said,
"The zakat al-fitr has to be paid by people living in the desert (i.e.
nomadic people) just as it has to be paid by people living in villages
(i.e. settled people), because the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, made the zakat al-fitr at the end of Ramadan
obligatory on every muslim, whether freeman or slave, male or female."
Muwatta Malik Book 17, Hadith 56
Shariq al-Hawzani and I came to Aisha (Allah be pleased with her) and asked her: By which (prayer) the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) began when he woke up at night? She replied: You asked me about a thing which no one asked me before. When he woke up at night, he uttered: "Allah is Most Great" ten times, and uttered "Praise be to Allah" ten times, and said "Glory be to Allah and I begin with His praise" ten times, and said: "Glory be to the King, the Most Holy" ten times, and asked Allah's pardon ten times, and said: "There is no god but Allah" ten times, and then said: "O Allah! I seek refuge in Thee from the strait of the Day of resurrection," ten times. He then began the prayer.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 43, Hadith 313
"The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) awoke in the morning and called for Bilal, then said: 'O Bilal! By what have you preceded me to Paradise? I have not entered Paradise at all, except that I heard your footsteps before me. I entered Paradise last night, and I heard your footsteps before me, and I came upon a square palace having balconies made of gold. So I said: 'Whose palace is this?' They said: 'A man among the Arabs.' So I said: 'I am an Arab, whose palace is this?' They said: 'A man among the Quraish.' So I said: 'I am from the Quraish, whose palace is this?' They said: 'A man from the Ummah of Muhammad (ﷺ).' So I said: 'I am Muhammad, whose palace is this?' They said: ''Umar bin Al-Khattab's.' So Bilal said: 'O Allah's Messenger! I have never called the Adhan except that I prayed two Rak'ah, and I never committed Hadath except that I performed Wudu upon that, and I considered that I owed Allah two Rak'ah.' So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'For those two.'"
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 49, Hadith 85
When `Abdur-Rahman bin `Auf came to Medina and the Prophet (ﷺ) established the bond of brotherhood
between him and Sa`d bin Ar-Rabi-al-Ansari, Saud suggested that `Abdur-Rahman should accept half
of his property and family. `Abdur Rahman said, "May Allah bless you in your family and property;
guide me to the market." So `Abdur-Rahman (while doing business in the market) made some profit
of some condensed dry yoghurt and butter. After a few days the Prophet (ﷺ) saw him wearing clothes
stained with yellow perfume. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "What is this, O `Abdur-Rahman?" He said, "O
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I have married an Ansar' woman." The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "What have you given her as
Mahr?" He (i.e. `Abdur-Rahman) said, "A piece of gold, about the weight of a date stone." Then the
Prophet said, Give a banquet, even though of a sheep."
