We went with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and we did not see but that he (intended to perform) Hajj (only), but when we reached Mecca we circumambulated the House; and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded that he who did not have with him a sacrificial animal should put off Ihram. She (A'isha) said: (And consequently) those who did not bring the sacrificial animals with them put off Ihram; and among his wives (too) who had not brought the sacrificial animals with them put off Ihram. A'isha said: I entered my period and could not (therefore) circumambulate the House. When it was the night of Hasba she said: Messenger of Allah, people are coming back (after having performed both) Hajj and'Umra, whereas I am coming back only with Hajj, whereupon he said: Did you not circumambulate (the Ka'ba) that very night we entered Mecca? She (A'isha) said: No, whereupon he said: Go along with your brother to Tan'im and put on the Ihram for Umra, and it is at such and such a place that you can meet (us). (In the meanwhile) Safiyya (the wife of the Holy Prophet) said: I think, I will detain you (since I have entered in the monthly) period and you shall have to wait for me for the farewell circuit). Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: May you be wounded and your head shorn did you not circumambulate on the Day of Sacrifice (10th of Dhu'l-Hijja)? She said: Yes. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: There is no harm. You should go forward. 'A'isha said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was going upwards to the side of Mecca, whereas I was coming down from it, or I was going upward, whereas he was coming down. Isbiq said: She was climbing down, and he was climbing down.
Sahih Muslim Book 15, Hadith 138
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
We were in the company of the Prophet (ﷺ) in a Ghazwa. A large number of emigrants joined him and
among the emigrants there was a person who used to play jokes (or play with spears); so he (jokingly)
stroked an Ansari man on the hip. The Ans-ari got so angry that both of them called their people. The
Ansari said, "Help, O Ansar!" And the emigrant said "Help, O emigrants!" The Prophet (ﷺ) came out and
said, "What is wrong with the people (as they are calling) this call of the period of Ignorance? "Then
he said, "What is the matter with them?" So he was told about the stroke of the emigrant to the Ansari.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Stop this (i.e. appeal for help) for it is an evil call. "Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul (a
hypocrite) said, "The emigrants have called and (gathered against us); so when we return to Medina,
surely, the more honorable people will expel therefrom the meaner," Upon that `Umar said, "O Allah's
Prophet! Shall we not kill this evil person (i.e. `Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul) ?" The Prophet) said,
"(No), lest the people should say that Muhammad used to kill his companions."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 61, Hadith 28
Malik said, "The imam does not come down and prostrate when he recites a piece of Quran requiring a prostration while he is on the mimbar." Malik said, "The position with us is that there are eleven prescribed prostrations in the Quran, none of which are in the mufassal." Malik said, "No-one should recite any of the pieces of Quran that require a prostration after the prayers of subh and asr. This is because the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade prayer after subh until after the sun had risen, and after asr until the sun had set, and prostration is part of the prayer. So no-one should recite any piece of Quran requiring a prostration during these two periods of time." Malik was asked whether a menstruating woman could prostrate if she heard some-one reciting a passage of Quran requiring a prostration, and he said, "Neither a man nor a woman should prostrate unless they are ritually pure." Malik was asked whether a man in the company of a woman who was reciting a passage of Quran requiring a prostration should prostrate with her, and he said, "He does not have to prostrate with her. The prostration is only obligatory for people who are with a man who is leading them. He recites the piece and they prostrate with him. Some one who hears a piece of Quran that requires a prostration being recited by a man who is not leading him in prayer does not have to do the prostration."
Muwatta Malik Book 15, Hadith 18
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 Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever has eaten garlic or onion, should keep away from us, or should keep
away from our mosque and should stay at home." Ibn Wahb said, "Once a plate full of cooked
vegetables was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) at Badr. Detecting a bad smell from it, he asked about the dish
and was informed of the kinds of vegetables in contained. He then said, "Bring it near," and so it was
brought near to one of his companions who was with him. When the Prophet (ﷺ) saw it, he disliked
eating it and said (to his companion), "Eat, for I talk in secret to ones whom you do not talk to."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 96, Hadith 86
When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) became seriously ill, Bilal came to him for the prayer. He said, "Tell Abu Bakr
to lead the people in the prayer." I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Abu Bakr is a softhearted man and if he
stands in your place, he would not be able to make the people hear him. Will you order `Umar (to lead
the prayer)?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in the prayer." Then I said to Hafsa,
"Tell him, Abu i Bakr is a softhearted man and if he stands in his place, he would not be able to make
the people hear him. Would you order `Umar to lead the prayer?' " Hafsa did so. The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Verily you are the companions of Joseph. Tell Abu Bakr to lead the people in the prayer." So Abu-
Bakr stood for the prayer. In the meantime Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) felt better and came out with the help of
two persons and both of his legs were dragging on the ground till he entered the mosque. When Abu
Bakr heard him coming, he tried to retreat but Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) beckoned him to carry on. The Prophet (ﷺ)
sat on his left side. Abu Bakr was praying while standing and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was leading the prayer
while sitting. Abu Bakr was following the Prophet (ﷺ) and the people were following Abu Bakr (in the
prayer).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 10, Hadith 108
Whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) offered the night (Tahajjud) prayer, he used to say, "O Allah! All the Praises
are for You; You are the Light of the Heavens and the Earth. And all the Praises are for You; You are
the Keeper of the Heavens and the Earth. All the Praises are for You; You are the Lord of the Heavens
and the Earth and whatever is therein. You are the Truth, and Your Promise is the Truth, and Your
Speech is the Truth, and meeting You is the Truth, and Paradise is the Truth and Hell (Fire) is the
Truth and all the prophets are the Truth and the Hour is the Truth. O Allah! I surrender to You, and
believe in You, and depend upon You, and repent to You, and in Your cause I fight and with Your
orders I rule. So please forgive my past and future sins and those sins which I did in secret or in
public. It is You Whom I worship, None has the right to be worshipped except You ." (See Hadith No.

Sahih al-Bukhari Book 97, Hadith 124
Abu Bakr (Allah be pleased with him) came and sought permission to see Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). He found people sitting at his door and none amongst them had been granted permission, but it was granted to Abu Bakr and he went in. Then came 'Umar and he sought permission and it was granted to him, and he found Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) sitting sad and silent with his wives around him. He (Hadrat 'Umar) said: I would say something which would make the Prophet (ﷺ) laugh, so he said: Messenger of Allah, I wish you had seen (the treatment meted out to) the daughter ofKhadija when you asked me some money, and I got up and slapped her on her neck. Allah's Messenger (mav peace be upon him) laughed and said: They are around me as you see, asking for extra money. Abu Bakr (Allah be pleased with him) then got up went to 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) and slapped her on the neck, and 'Umar stood up before Hafsa and slapped her saying: You ask Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) which he does not possess. They said: By Allah, we do not ask Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) for anything he does not possess. Then he withdrew from them for a month or for twenty-nine days. Then this verse was revealed to him:" Prophet: Say to thy wives... for a mighty reward" (xxxiii. 28). He then went first to 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) and said: I want to propound something to you, 'A'isha, but wish no hasty reply before you consult your parents. She said: Messenger of Allah, what is that? He (the Holy Prophet) recited to her the verse, whereupon she said: Is it about you that I should consult my parents, Messenger of Allah? Nay, I choose Allah, His Messenger, and the Last Abode; but I ask you not to tell any of your wives what I have said He replied: Not one of them will ask me without my informing her. God did not send me to be harsh, or cause harm, but He has sent me to teach and make things easy.
