He spent (one night) in the house of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He (the Holy Prophet) got up, brushed his teeth and performed ablution and said: "In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, there are indeed signs for people of understanding" (al-Qur'an, iii. 190), to the end of the Surah. He then stood up and prayed two rak`ahs, standing, bowing and prostrating himself at length in them. Then he finished, went to sleep and snored. He did that three times, six rak`ahs altogether, each time cleaning his teeth, performing ablution, and reciting these verses. Then he observed three rak`ahs of Witr. The Mu'adhdhin then pronounced the Adhan and he went out for prayer and was saying: "O Allah! place light in my heart, light in my tongue, place light in my hearing, place light in my eyesight, place light behind me, and light in front of me, and place light above me, and light below me. O Allah! grant me light."
Sahih Muslim Book 6, Hadith 227
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said heard Sulayman
ibn Yasar mention that a face wound in which the bone was bared was
like a head wound in which the bone was bared, unless the face was
scarred by the wound. Then the blood-money is increased by one half of
the blood-money of the head wound in which the skin was bared so that
seventy five dinars are payable for it.
Malik said, "What is
done in our community is that the head wound with splinters has
fifteen camels." He explained, "The head wound with splinters is that
from which pieces of bone fly off and which does not reach the brain.
It can be in the head or the face."
Malik said, "The
generally agreed on way of doing things in our community, is that
there is no retaliation for a wound to the brain or a belly wound, and
Ibn Shihab has said, 'There is no retaliation for a wound to the
brain.' "
Malik explained, "The wound to the brain is what
pierces the bones to the brain. This type of wound only occurs in the
head. It is that which reaches the brain when the bones are pierced."
Malik said, "What is done in our community is that there is
no blood-money paid on any head wound less than one which lays bare
the skull. Blood-money is payable only for the head wound that bares
the bone and what is worse than that. That is because the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, stopped at the head
wound which bared the bone in his letter to Amr ibn Hazm. He made it
five camels. The imams, past and present, have not made any blood-
money payable for injuries less than the head wound which bares the
bone."
Muwatta Malik Book 43, Hadith 17
While we were on one of our journeys, we dismounted at a place where a slave girl came and said,
"The chief of this tribe has been stung by a scorpion and our men are not present; is there anybody
among you who can treat him (by reciting something)?" Then one of our men went along with her
though we did not think that he knew any such treatment. But he treated the chief by reciting
something, and the sick man recovered whereupon he gave him thirty sheep and gave us milk to drink
(as a reward). When he returned, we asked our friend, "Did you know how to treat with the recitation
of something?" He said, "No, but I treated him only with the recitation of the Mother of the Book (i.e.,
Al-Fatiha)." We said, "Do not say anything (about it) till we reach or ask the Prophet (ﷺ) so when we
reached Medina, we mentioned that to the Prophet (in order to know whether the sheep which we had
taken were lawful to take or not). The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "How did he come to know that it (Al-Fatiha)
could be used for treatment? Distribute your reward and assign for me one share thereof as well."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 66, Hadith 29
"I went to Abu Tha'balah Al-Khushani and said to him: 'How do you deal with this Ayah?' He said: 'Which Ayah?' I said: 'Allah's saying: Take care of yourselves! If you follow the guidance no harm shall come to you (5:105).' He said: 'Well, by Allah! I asked one well-informed about it, I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about it. he said: "Rather, comply with (and order) the good, and stay away from (and prohibit) the evil, until you see avarice obeyed, desires followed, and the world preferred, and everyone is amazed with his view. Then you should be worried about yourself in particular, and worry of the common folk. Ahead of you are the days in which patience is like holding onto an ember, for the doer (of righteous deeds) during them is the like of the reward of fifty of those who do the like of what you do." 'Abdullah bin Al-Mubarak said: "It was added for me, by other than 'Utbah, that it was said: 'O Messenger of Allah! The reward of fifty men among us, or them?' He said: 'No! Rather the reward of fifty men among you.'"
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 47, Hadith 110
Muhayyasah b. Mas'ud and 'Abd Allah b. Sahl came to Khaibar and parted (from each other) among palm trees. 'Abd Allah b. Sahl was killed. The Jews were blamed (for the murder). 'Abd al-Rahman b. Sahl and Huwayyasah and Muhayyasah, the sons of his uncle (Mas'ud) came to the Prophet (ﷺ). 'Abd al-Rahman, who was the youngest, spoke about his brother, but the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: (Respect) the elder, (respect) the elder or he said: Let the eldest begin. They then spoke about their friend and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Fifty of you should take oaths regarding a man from them (the Jews) and he should be entrusted (to him) with his rope (in his neck). They said: It is a matter which we did not see. How can we take oaths ? He said: The Jews exonerate themselves by the oaths of fifty of them. They said: Messenger of Allah! they are a people who are infidels. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) paid them bloodwit himself. Sahl said: Once I entered the resting place of their camels, and the she-camel struck me with her lef. Hammad said this or (something) similar to it.
Abu Dawud said: Another version transmitted by Yahya b. Sa'id has: Would you swear fifty oaths and make you claim regarding your friend or your slain man ? Bishr, the transmitter, did mention blood. 'Abdah transmitted it from Yahya as transmitted by Hammad. Ibn 'Uyainah has also transmitted it from Yahya, and began with his words: The Jew will exonerate themselves by fifty oaths which they will swear. He did not mention the claim.
Abu Dawud said: This is a misunderstanding on the part of Ibn 'Uyainah.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 41, Hadith 27
While I was with my uncle, I heard `Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul saying, "Do not spend on those who
are with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), that they may disperse and go away (from him). And if we return to Medina,
surely, the more honorable will expel therefrom the meaner. "I mentioned that to my uncle who, in
turn, mentioned it to the Prophet. The Prophet (ﷺ) called me and I told him about that. Then he sent for
`Abdullah bin Ubai and his companions, and they swore that they did not say so. The Prophet (ﷺ)
disbelieved my statement and believed theirs. I was distressed as I have never been before, and I
remained in my house. My uncle said to me, "You just wanted the Prophet (ﷺ) to consider you a liar and
hate you." Then Allah revealed:--
'When the hypocrites come to you, they say: 'We bear witness that you are indeed the Apostle of
Allah." (63.1) So the Prophet (ﷺ) sent for me and recited it and said, "Allah has confirmed your
statement."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 424
The pagans were of two kinds as regards their relationship to the
Prophet and the Believers. Some of them were those with whom the
Prophet was at war and used to fight against, and they used to fight
him; the others were those with whom the Prophet (ﷺ) made a treaty, and
neither did the Prophet (ﷺ) fight them, nor did they fight him. If a lady
from the first group of pagans emigrated towards the Muslims, her hand
would not be asked in marriage unless she got the menses and then
became clean. When she became clean, it would be lawful for her to get
married, and if her husband emigrated too before she got married, then
she would be returned to him. If any slave or female slave emigrated
from them to the Muslims, then they would be considered free persons
(not slaves) and they would have the same rights as given to other
emigrants. The narrator then mentioned about the pagans involved with
the Muslims in a treaty, the same as occurs in Mujahid's narration. If
a male slave or a female slave emigrated from such pagans as had made
a treaty with the Muslims, they would not be returned, but their
prices would be paid (to the pagans).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 68, Hadith 35
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.
329,Vol. 8)
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 97, Hadith 124
When Abu Dhar received the news of the Advent of the Prophet (ﷺ) he said to his brother, "Ride to this
valley (of Mecca) and try to find out the truth of the person who claims to be a prophet who is
informed of the news of Heaven. Listen to what he says and come back to me." So his brother set out
and came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and listened to some of his talks, and returned to Abu Dhar and said to him.
"I have seen him enjoining virtuous behavior and saying something that is not poetry." Abu Dhar said,
"You have not satisfied me as to what I wanted." He then took his journey-food and carried a waterskin
of his, containing some water till be reached Mecca. He went to the Mosque and searched for the
Prophet and though he did not know him, he hated to ask anybody about him. When a part of the night
had passed away, `Ali saw him and knew that he was a stranger.
So when Abu Dhar saw `Ali, he followed him, and none of them asked his companion about anything,
and when it was dawn, Abu Dhar took his journey food and his water-skin to the Mosque and stayed
there all the day long without being perceived by the Prophet, and when it was evening, he came back
to his retiring place. `Ali passed by him and said, "Has the man not known his dwelling place yet?" So
`Ali awakened him and took him with him and none of them spoke to the other about anything. When
it was the third day. `Ali did the same and Abu Dhar stayed with him. Then `Ali said "Will you tell me
what has brought you here?" Abu Dhar said, "If you give me a firm promise that you will guide me,
then I will tell you." `Ali promised him, and he informed `Ali about the matter.
`Ali said, "It is true, and he is the Messenger of Allah. Next morning when you get up, accompany me,
and if I see any danger for you, I will stop as if to pass water, but if I go on, follow me and enter the
place which I will enter." Abu Dhar did so, and followed `Ali till he entered the place of the Prophet,
and Abu Dhar went in with him, Abu Dhar listened to some of the Prophet's talks and embraced Islam
on the spot. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, "Go back to your people and inform them (about it) till you
receive my order." Abu Dhar said, "By Him in Whose Hand my life is, I will proclaim my conversion
loudly amongst them (i.e. the pagans)." So he went out, and when he reached the Mosque, he said as
loudly as possible, "I bear witness that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, and
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah." The People got up and beat him painfully.
Then Al-Abbas came and knelt over him ((to protect him) and said (to the people), "Woe to you!
Don't you know that this man belongs to the tribe of Ghifar and your trade to Sha'm is through their
way?" So he rescued him from them. Abu Dhar again did the same the next day. They beat him and
took vengeance on him and again Al-Abbas knelt over him (to protect him).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 86
"Ibn 'Abbas met Ka'b at Arafat, so he asked him about something and he kept on saying the Takbir until it reverberated off of the mountains. So Ibn 'Abbas (finally) said: 'We are Banu Hashim.' So Ka'b said: 'Indeed Allah divided His being seen and His speaking between Muhammad and Musa. He spoke to Musa two times, and Muhammad saw Him two times.' Masruq said: 'I entered upon 'Aishah and asked her if Muhammad saw his Lord.' She said: 'You have said something that makes my hair stand on end.' I said: 'Take it easy.' Then I recited: Indeed he saw of the great signs of his Lord (53:18). So she said: 'What do you mean by that? That is only Jibra'il. Whoever informed you that Muhammad saw his Lord, or that (ﷺ) concealed something he was ordered with, or he knew of the five things about which Allah, said: Verily Allah, with Him is the knowledge of the Hour, He sends down the rain (31:34) - then he has fabricated the worst lie. Rather he (ﷺ) saw Jibra'il, but he did not see him in his (real) image except two times. One time at Sidrat Al-Muntaha and one time in Jiyad, he had six-hundred wings which filled the horizon.'"
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 47, Hadith 330
"There was a drought during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). While the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was giving the Khutbah on the minbar one Friday, a Bedouin stood up and said: 'O Messenger of Allah wealth has been destroyed and our children are hungry; pray to Allah for us.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) raised his hands, and we could not see even a wisp of a cloud in the sky, but by the One in Whose hand is my soul, he did not lower (his hands) before clouds like mountains appeared, and he did not come down from his minbar before we saw the rain dripping from his beard. It rained that day and the next day, and the day after, until the following Friday. Then that Bedouin"- or he said, "Someone else"- "stood up and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, buildings have been destroyed and wealth has drowned; pray to Allah (SWT) for us. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) raised his hands and said: 'O Allah, around us and not on us.' He did not point in any direction but the clouds dispersed, until Al-Madinah became like a hole. And the valleys ran with water and no one came from any direction but he told us of the heavy rains."
Sunan an-Nasa'i Book 17, Hadith 25
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to order that when one of us went to sleep, he should say: ‘O Allah, Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earths, and our Lord, and the Lord of everything, splitter of the seed-grain and date-stone, and Revealer of the Tawrah and the Injil and the Qur’an. I seek refuge in You from the evil of every evil that You are holding by the forelock. You are the First, there is nothing before You, You are the Last, there is nothing after You, and Az-Zahir, there is nothing above you, and Al-Batin, there is nothing below You. Relieve me of my debt, and enrich me from poverty (Allāhumma rabbas-samāwati wa rabbal-arḍīna wa rabbanā, wa rabba kulli shai’in, fāliqal-ḥabbi wan-nawā, wa munzilat-Tawrāti wal-Injīli wal-Qur’ān. A`ūdhu bika sharri kulli dhi sharrin anta ākhidhun bināṣiyatihi, antal-Awwalu falaisa qablaka shai’un, wa antal-Ākhiru falaisa ba`daka shai’un, waẓ-Ẓāhiru falaisa fauqaka shai'un wal-Bātinu falaisa dūnaka shai’un, iqḍi `annid-daina wa aghninī minal-faqr).’”
