Yes. He said: By Lat and `Uzza. If I were to see him do that, I would trample his neck, or I would smear his face with dust. He came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as he was engaged in prayer and thought of trampling his neck (and the people say) that he came near him but turned upon his heels and tried to repulse something with his hands. It was said to him: What is the matter with you? He said: There is between me and him a ditch of fire and terror and wings. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) said: If he were to come near me the angels would have torn him to pieces. Then Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed this verse- (the narrator) said: We do not know whether it is the hadith transmitted by Abu Huraira or something conveyed to him from another source: "Nay, man is surely inordinate, because he looks upon himself as self-sufficient. Surely to thy Lord is the return. Hast thou seen him who forbids a servant when he prays? Seest thou if he is on the right way, or enjoins observance of piety? Seest thou if he denies and turns away? Knowest he not that Allah sees? Nay, if he desists not, We will seize him by the forelock-a lying, sinful forelock. Then let him summon his council. We will summon the guards of the Hell. Nay! Obey not thou him" (lcvi, 6-19). (Rather prostrate thyself.) Ubaidullah made this addition: It was after this that (prostration) was enjoined upon and Ibn Abd al-Ala made this addition that by "Nadiyah" he meant his people.
Sahih Muslim Book 52, Hadith 21
Malik said, "The generally agreed on way of doing things among us
is that when slaves write their kitaba together in one kitaba, and
some are responsible for others, and they are not reduced anything by
the death of one of the responsible ones, and then one of them says,
'I can't do it,' and gives up, his companions can use him in whatever
work he can do and they help each other with that in their kitaba
until they are freed, if they are freed, or remain slaves if they
remain slaves."
Malik said, "The generally agreed on way of
doing things among us is that when a master gives a slave his kitaba,
it is not permitted for the master to let anyone assume the
responsibility for the kitaba of his slave if the slave dies or is
incapable. This is not part of the sunna of the muslims. That is
because when a man assumes responsibility to the master of a mukatab
for what the mukatab owes of his kitaba, and then the master of the
mukatab pursues that from the one who assumes the responsibility, he
takes his money falsely. It is not as if he is buying the mukatab, so
that what he gives is part of the price of something that is his, and
neither is the mukatab being freed so that the price established for
him buys his inviolability as a free man. If the mukatab is unable to
meet the payments he reverts to his master and is his slave. That is
because kitaba is not a fixed debt which can be assumed by the master
of the mukatab. It is something which, when it is paid by the mukatab,
sets him free. If the mukatab dies and has a debt, his master is not
one of the creditors for what remains unpaid of the kitaba. The
creditors have precedence over the master. If the mukatab cannot meet
the payments, and he owes debts to people, he reverts to being a slave
owned by his master and the debts to the people are the liability of
the mukatab. The creditors do not enter with the master into any share
of the price of his person."
Malik said, "When people are
written together in one kitaba and there is no kinship between them by
which they inherit from each other, and some of them are responsible
for others, then none of them are freed before the others until all
the kitaba has been paid. If one of them dies and leaves property and
it is more than all of what is against them, it pays all that is
against them . The excess of the property goes to the master, and none
of those who have been written in the kitaba with the deceased have
any of the excess. The master's claims are overshadowed by their
claims for the portions which remain against them of the kitaba which
can be fulfilled from the property of the deceased, because the
deceased had assumed their responsibility and they must use his
property to pay for their freedom. If the deceased mukatab has a free
child not born in kitaba and who was not written in the kitaba, it
does not inherit from him because the mukatab was not freed until he
died."
Muwatta Malik Book 39, Hadith 4
When the Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to travel, when he mounted his riding camel, he would say the Takbir three times and say: Glory is to Him Who has subjected this to us, and we were not able to do it. And, surely, to our Lord are we returning (Subḥān alladhī sakh-khara lanā hādhā wa mā kunnā lahū muqrinīn. Wa innā ilā rabbinā lamunqalibūn). Then he would say: “O Allah, I ask You in this journey of mine from the righteousness and piety and actions that which you are pleased with. O Allah, ease for us the path, and make near for us the distance of the land. O Allah, You are the companion in the journey, and the caretaker for the family. O Allah, accompany us in our journey, and take care of our families (Allāhumma innī as’aluka fī safarī hādhā minal-birri wat-taqwā, wa minal-`amali mā tarḍā. Allāhumma hawwin `alainal-masīra, waṭwi `annā bu`dal-arḍ. Allāhumma antaṣ-ṣāḥibu fis safari wal-khalīfatu fil-ahli. Allāhumma aṣḥabnā fī safarinā wakhlufnā fī ahlinā).” And when he would return to his family, he would say: “(We are) Returning, if Allah wills, repenting, worshipping, and to our Lord directing the praise (Ā’ibūna in shā’ Allāh, tā’ibūna `ābidūna lirabbinā hāmidūn).”
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 48, Hadith 78
Yahya related to me that Malik said that he had heard that Umar
ibn Abd al-Aziz used to say, "The man on horse-back has two shares,
and the man on foot has one."
Malik added, "I continue to
hear the same."
Malik, when asked whether a man who was
present with several horses took a share for all of them, said, "I
have never heard that. I think that there is only a share for the
horse on which he fought."
Malik said, "I think that foreign
horses and half-breeds are considered as horses because Allah, the
Blessed, the Exalted, said in His Book, 'All horses, and mules, and
asses, for you to ride, and as an adornment.' (Sura16 ayat 8). He
said, the Mighty, the Majestic, 'Make ready for them whatever force
and strings of horses you can, to terrify thereby the enemy of Allah
and your enemy.' (Sura 8 ayat 60). I think that foreign breeds and
half-breeds are considered as horses if the governor accepts them."
Said ibn al-Musayyab was asked about working horses, and
whether there was zakat on them. He said, "Is there any zakat on
horses.?"
Muwatta Malik Book 21, Hadith 23
Malik related to me from Yahya ibn Said from Said ibn al-Musayyab
that a man from the Aslam tribe came to Abu Bakr as-Siddiq and said to
him, "I have committed adultery." Abu Bakr said to him, "Have you
mentioned this to anyone else?" He said, "No." Abu Bakr said to him,
"Then cover it up with the veil of Allah. Allah accepts tawba from his
slaves." His self was still unsettled, so he went to Umar ibn al-
Khattab. He told him the same as he had said to Abu Bakr, and Umar
told him the same as Abu Bakr had said to him. His self was still not
settled so he went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, and said to him, "I have committed adultery,"
insistently. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, turned away from him three times. Each time the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, turned away from him
until it became too much. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, questioned his family, "Does he have an illness
which affects his mind, or is he mad?" They said, "Messenger of Allah,
by Allah, he is well." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "Unmarried or married?" They said, "Married,
Messenger of Allah." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, gave the order and he was stoned.
Muwatta Malik Book 41, Hadith 2
The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up among us and addressed (saying) "You will be gathered, barefooted, naked, and
uncircumcised (as Allah says): 'As We began the first creation, We shall repeat it..' (21.104) And the
first human being to be dressed on the Day of Resurrection will be (the Prophet) Abraham Al-Khalil.
Then will be brought some men of my followers who will be taken towards the left (i.e., to the Fire),
and I will say: 'O Lord! My companions whereupon Allah will say: You do not know what they did
after you left them. I will then say as the pious slave, Jesus said, And I was witness over them while I
dwelt amongst them..........(up to) ...the All-Wise.' (5.117-118). The narrator added: Then it will be
said that those people (relegated from Islam, that is) kept on turning on their heels (deserted Islam).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 81, Hadith 115
The Prophet (ﷺ) sent an army unit (for some campaign) and appointed a man from the Ansar as its
commander and ordered them (the soldiers) to obey him. (During the campaign) he became angry
with them and said, "Didn't the Prophet (ﷺ) order you to obey me?" They said, "Yes." He said, "I order
you to collect wood and make a fire and then throw yourselves into it." So they collected wood and
made a fire, but when they were about to throw themselves into, it they started looking at each other,
and some of them said, "We followed the Prophet (ﷺ) to escape from the fire. How should we enter it
now?" So while they were in that state, the fire extinguished and their commander's anger abated. The
event was mentioned to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he said, "If they had entered it (the fire) they would never
have come out of it, for obedience is required only in what is good." (See Hadith No. 629. Vol. 5)
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 93, Hadith 9
The Prophet (ﷺ) employed Ibn Al-Utbiyya to collect Zakat from Bani Sulaim, and when he returned (with
the money) to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) the Prophet (ﷺ) called him to account, and he said, "This (amount) is for
you, and this was given to me as a present." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Why don't you stay at your father's
house or your mother's house to see whether you will be given gifts or not, if you are telling the
truth?" Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stood up and addressed the people, and after glorifying and praising
Allah, he said: Amma Ba'du (then after) I employ some men from among you for some job which
Allah has placed in my charge, and then one of you comes to me and says, 'This (amount) is for you
and this is a gift given to me.' Why doesn't he stay at the house of his father or the house of his mother
and see whether he will be given gifts or not if he was telling the truth by Allah, none of you takes
anything of it (i.e., Zakat) for himself (Hisham added: unlawfully) but he will meet Allah on the Day
of Resurrection carrying it on his neck! I do not want to see any of you carrying a grunting camel or a
mooing cow or a bleating sheep on meeting Allah." Then the Prophet (ﷺ) raised both his hands till I saw
the whiteness of his armpits, and said, "(No doubt)! Haven't I conveyed Allah's Message!"
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 93, Hadith 58
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his
father used to be cupped while he was fasting and he would not then
break his fast. Hisham added, "I only ever saw him being cupped when
he was fasting."
Malik said, "Cupping is only disapproved of
for some one who is fasting out of fear that he will become weak and
if it were not for that, it would not be disapproved of. I do not
think that a man who is cupped in Ramadan and does not break his fast,
owes anything, and I do not say that he has to make up for the day on
which he was cupped, because cupping is only disapproved of for
someone fasting if his fast is endangered. I do not think that someone
who is cupped, and is then well enough to keep the fast until evening,
owes anything, nor does he have to make up for that day."
Muwatta Malik Book 18, Hadith 35
A man came to the Prophets and said, "I am ruined!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What is the matter with you?"
He said, "I have done a sexual relation with my wife (while fasting) in Ramadan" The Prophet (ﷺ) said to
him, "Can you afford to manumit a slave?" He said, "No." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Can you fast for two
successive months?" He said, "No." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Can you feed sixty poor persons?" He said, "I
have nothing." Later on an Irq (big basket) containing dates was given to the Prophet, and the Prophet (ﷺ)
said (to him), "Take this basket and give it in charity." The man said, "To poorer people than we?
Indeed, there is nobody between its (i.e., Medina's) two mountains who is poorer than we." The
Prophet then said, "Take it and feed your family with it."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 84, Hadith 4
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) sent Abu Musa and Mu`adh bin Jabal to Yemen. He sent each of them to administer a
province as Yemen consisted of two provinces. The Prophet (ﷺ) said (to them), "Facilitate things for the
people and do not make things difficult for them (Be kind and lenient (both of you) with the people,
and do not be hard on them) and give the people good tidings and do not repulse them. So each of
them went to carry on his job. So when any one of them toured his province and happened to come
near (the border of the province of) his companion, he would visit him and greet him. Once Mu`adh
toured that part of his state which was near (the border of the province of) his companion Abu Musa.
Mu`adh came riding his mule till he reached Abu Musa and saw him sitting, and the people had
gathered around him. Behold! There was a man tied with his hands behind his neck. Mu`adh said to
Abu Musa, "O `Abdullah bin Qais! What is this?" Abu Musa replied. "This man has reverted to
Heathenism after embracing Islam." Mu`adh said, "I will not dismount till he is killed." Abu Musa
replied, "He has been brought for this purpose, so come down." Mu`adh said, "I will not dismount till
he is killed." So Abu Musa ordered that he be killed, and he was killed. Then Mu`adh dismounted and
said, "O `Abdullah (bin Qais)! How do you recite the Qur'an ?" Abu Musa said, "I recite the Qur'an
regularly at intervals and piecemeal. How do you recite it O Mu`adh?" Mu`adh said, "I sleep in the
first part of the night and then get up after having slept for the time devoted for my sleep and then
recite as much as Allah has written for me. So I seek Allah's Reward for both my sleep as well as my
prayer (at night).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 64, Hadith 370
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Humayd ibn
Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever hands over two
of any type of property in the way of Allah is called to the Garden,
with the words 'O slave of Allah! This is good!' Whoever is among the
people of prayer, is called from the gate of prayer. Whoever is among
the people of jihad is called from the gate of jihad. Whoever is among
the people of sadaqa, is called from the gate of sadaqa. Whoever is
among the people of fasting, is called from the gate of the well-
watered. (Bab ar-Rayyan)."
Abu Bakr as-Siddiq said,
"Messenger of Allah! Is it absolutely necessary that one be called
from one of these gates? Can someone be called from all of these
gates?" He said, "Yes, and I hope you are among them ."

Acquisition of the Land of Those who Surrender from the People of
Dhimma
Muwatta Malik Book 21, Hadith 51
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to like sweets and also used to like honey, and whenever he finished the `Asr
prayer, he used to visit his wives and stay with them. Once he visited Hafsa and remained with her
longer than the period he used to stay, so I enquired about it. It was said to me, "A woman from her
tribe gave her a leather skin containing honey as a present, and she gave some of it to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
to drink." I said, "By Allah, we will play a trick on him." So I mentioned the story to Sauda (the wife
of the Prophet) and said to her, "When he enters upon you, he will come near to you whereupon you
should say to him, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Have you eaten Maghafir?' He will say, 'No.' Then you say to
him, 'What is this bad smell? ' And it would be very hard on Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) that a bad smell should be
found on his body. He will say, 'Hafsa has given me a drink of honey.' Then you should say to him,
'Its bees must have sucked from the Al-`Urfut (a foul smelling flower).' I too, will tell him the same.
And you, O Saifya, say the same."
So when the Prophet (ﷺ) entered upon Sauda (the following happened). Sauda said, "By Him except
Whom none has the right to be worshipped, I was about to say to him what you had told me to say
while he was still at the gate because of fear from you. But when Allah 's Apostle came near to me, I
said to him, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Have you eaten Maghafir?' He replied, 'No.' I said, 'What about this
smell?' He said, 'Hafsa has given me a drink of honey.' I said, 'Its bees must have sucked Al-`Urfut.' "
When he entered upon me, I told him the same as that, and when he entered upon Safiya, she too told
him the same. So when he visited Hafsa again, she said to him, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Shall I give you a
drink of it (honey)?" He said, "I have no desire for it." Sauda said, Subhan Allah! We have deprived
him of it (honey)." I said to her, "Be quiet!"
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 90, Hadith 19
"The sun was eclipsed during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He stood and said the takbir, and the people formed rows behind him. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited for a long time, then he said the takbir and bowed for a long time, then he raised his head and said: Sami Allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal-hamd. Then he stood and recited for a long time, but it was a shorter recitation than the first recitation, then he said the takbir and bowed but it was shorter than the first bowing. Then he said: Sami Allahu liman hamidah, then he prostrated. In this manner, he bowed four times, and the eclipse ended before he had finished. Then he stood and addressed the people. He praised and glorified Allah (SWT), the Mighty and Sublime, as He deserves, then he said: The sun and moon are two of the signs of Allah (SWT), Most High. They do not become eclipsed for the death or birth of anyone. If you see that (eclipsed) then pray until it ends. And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: While I was standing just now I saw everything you have been promised. When you saw me moving forward, I wanted to take a cluster of fruit from Paradise. And I saw Hell; parts of it were consuming other parts when you saw me step backward. And I saw therein Ibn Luhayy, who was the first one to establish the Sa'ibah.'"
Sunan an-Nasa'i Book 16, Hadith 14
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Umar ibn al-
Khattab told people to kill snakes in the Haram.
Malik said,
about the "wild dogs" which people were told to kill in the Haram,
that any animals that wounded, attacked, or terrorised men, such as
lions, leopards, Iynxes and wolves, were counted as"wild dogs."
However, someone who was in ihram should not kill beasts of prey that
did not attack (people), such as hyenas, foxes, cats and anything else
like them, and if he did then he had to pay a forfeit for it.
Similarly, someone in ihram should not kill any predatory birds except
the kinds that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
specified, namely crows and kites. If someone in ihram killed any
other kind of bird he had to pay a forfeit for it.
Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 93
