"I was accompanied by Ibn Sa'eed- either performing Hajj or 'Umrah - the people departed, and he and I were left. When I was alone with him I trembled and felt frightened of him because of what the people were saying about him. When I halted I said to him: 'Put your belongings near that tree.'" "he saw a sheep, took out a cup, and went to milk, it. Then he came to me with some milk and said to me: 'Drink Abu Sa'eed!' But I loathed drinking anything from his hand because of what the people were saying about him. So I said to him: 'It is very hot today, and I would not like to drink milk.' So he said to me: 'O Abu Sa'eed, I think I should take a rope, tie it to the tree, then hang myself because of what the people are saying about me. You see those who may be unaware of some narrations, while you are not unaware of them. You people are the most knowledgeable among the people of the Ahadith of the Messenger of Allah, O people of the Ansar! Did the Messenger of Allah not say: "He is a disbeliever" while I am a Muslim? Did the Messenger of Allah not said: "He is sterile, having no children" while I have left my children behind in Al-Madinah? Did the Messenger of Allah not say: " where he is at this time in the land.' So I said: 'May the rest of your day be but grief.'"
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 33, Hadith 89
"The Prophet (s.a.w) went out during an hour in which he would normally not go out, nor meet with anyone. Then Abu Bakr came to him. So he said:"What brought you O Abu Bakr?" He said: "I came to meet the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and to look at his face, and to make sure he was safe. It was not long before 'Umar came. He said: "What has brought you O 'Umar ?" He said: "Hunger O Messenger of Allah!"He said: "I also experienced some of that" So they went to the home of Abu Al-Haitham At-Taiyyihan Al-Ansari. He was a man with many date-palms and sheep, but he had no servants so they did not find him there. They said to his wife: "Where is your companion?" She said: "He has gone to fetch us some good water." It was not long before Abu Al-Haitham came along hauling to a large water-skin which he put down. Then he came to hug the Prophet (s.a.w) and uttered that his father and mother should be ransomed for him. Then he went to grove of his and he spread out a mat for them. Then he went to a date-palm and returned with a cluster of dates which he put down. The prophet (s.a.w) said: "Why don't you select some ripe dates for us?" He said: "O Messenger of Allah(s.a.w)! I wanted you to select from the ripe dates and the unripe dates." So they ate and they drank from that water. The Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said: "By the One in Whose Hand is my soul! This is among the favors which you shall be asked about on the Day of Judgement. Cool shade, tasty ripe dates, and cool water." Abu Al-Haitham left to prepare some food for them. The Prophet (s.a.w) said: "Do not slaughter one with milk." So he Slaughtered a small female or male goat and brought it to them so they could eat it. The Prophet (s.a.w) said: "Do you have any servants?" He said: "No." So he said: "Then if we get some captives we shall bring them for you." So (later) the Prophet (s.a.w) came with 2 males, there was no third among them and he brought them to Abu Al-Haitham. The Prophet (s.a.w) said: "Choose from them." He said: "O Prophet of Allah! Choose for me." So the Prophet (s.a.w) said: "Indeed the one consulted is entrusted. Take this one for I have seen him praying, and encourage him to do well." So Abu Al-Haitham went to his wife and informed her of what the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said. So his wife said: "You will not fulfill what the Prophet (s.a.w) said until you have freed him." So he said: "He is free." So the Prophet (s.a.w) said: "Indeed Allah has not send a Prophet nor made a Khalifah except that he has two groups of supporters, group ordering him to do good, and prohibiting him from evil and a group that never ceases spoiling his affairs. So whoever protected."
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 36, Hadith 66
"My husband divorced me three times, and he used to provide me with food that was not good." She said: "By Allah, if I were entitled to maintenance and accommodation I would demand them and I would not accept this." The deputy said: "You are not entitled to accommodation or maintenance." She said: "I came to the Prophet and told him about that, and he said: 'You are not entitled to accommodation nor maintenance; observe your 'Iddah in the house of so-and-so.' She said: 'His Companions used to go to her.' Then he said: 'Observe your 'Iddah in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum, who is blind, and when your 'Iddah is over, let me know.'" She said: "When my 'Iddah was over, I let him know. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Who has proposed marriage to you?' I said: 'Mu'awiyah and another man from the Quraish.' He said: 'As for Mu'awiyah, he is a boy among the Quraish and does not have anything, and as for the other he is a bad man with no goodness in him. Rather you should marry Usamah bin Zaid.'" She said: "I did not like the idea." But he said that to her three times so she married him.
Sunan an-Nasa'i Book 26, Hadith 49
While I was walking with the Prophet (ﷺ) at the Hurra of Medina in the evening, the mountain of Uhud
appeared before us. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Abu Dhar! I would not like to have gold equal to Uhud
(mountain) for me, unless nothing of it, not even a single Dinar remains of it with me, for more than
one day or three days, except that single Dinar which I will keep for repaying debts. I will spend all of
it (the whole amount) among Allah's slaves like this and like this and like this." The Prophet (ﷺ) pointed
out with his hand to illustrate it and then said, "O Abu Dhar!" I replied, "Labbaik wa Sa`daik, O
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)!" He said, "Those who have much wealth (in this world) will be the least rewarded (in
the Hereafter) except those who do like this and like this (i.e., spend their money in charity)." Then he
ordered me, "Remain at your place and do not leave it, O Abu Dhar, till I come back." He went away
till he disappeared from me. Then I heard a voice and feared that something might have happened to
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), and I intended to go (to find out) but I remembered the statement of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
that I should not leave, my place, so I kept on waiting (and after a while the Prophet (ﷺ) came), and I said
to him, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), I heard a voice and I was afraid that something might have happened to
you, but then I remembered your statement and stayed (there). The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "That was Gabriel
who came to me and informed me that whoever among my followers died without joining others in
worship with Allah, would enter Paradise." I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Even if he had committed
illegal sexual intercourse and theft?" He said, "Even if he had committed illegal sexual intercourse and
theft."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 79, Hadith 42
`Abdullah bin Mas`ud said, "While Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was praying beside the Ka`ba, there were some
Quraish people sitting in a gathering. One of them said, 'Don't you see this (who does deeds just to
show off)? Who amongst you can go and bring the dung, blood and the Abdominal contents
(intestines, etc.) of the slaughtered camels of the family of so and so and then wait till he prostrates
and put that in between his shoulders?' The most unfortunate amongst them (`Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait)
went (and brought them) and when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) prostrated, he put them between his shoulders. The
Prophet remained in prostration and they laughed so much so that they fell on each other. A passerby
went to Fatima, who was a young girl in those days. She came running and the Prophet (ﷺ) was still in
prostration. She removed them and cursed upon the Quraish on their faces. When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
completed his prayer, he said, 'O Allah! Take revenge on Quraish.' He said so thrice and added, 'O
Allah! take revenge on `Amr bin Hisham, `Utba bin Rabi`a, Shaiba bin Rabi`a, Al-Walid bin `Utba,
Umaiya bin Khalaf, `Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait and `Umar a bin Al-Walid." `Abdullah added, "By Allah! I
saw all of them dead in the battle field on the day of Badr and they were dragged and thrown in the
Qalib (a well) at Badr: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then said, 'Allah's curse has descended upon the people of the
Qalib (well).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 8, Hadith 167
"Fatimah came to Abu Bakr and said: 'Who will inherit from you?' He said: 'My family and my son.' She said: 'So what about me? I do not get inheritance from my father?' So Abu Bakr said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: 'We are not inherited from' but I support those whom the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to support, and I spend upon those whom the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) spent upon."
There are narrations on this topic from 'Umar, Talhah, Az-Zubair, 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Awf, Sa'd and 'Aishah.
The Hadith of Abu Hurairah is Hasan Gharib from this route. It is only reported with a chain by Hammad bin Salamah and 'Abdul Wahhab bin 'Ata, from Muhammad bin 'Amr, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurairah.
I asked Muhammad about this Hadith and he said: "No one is known to have reported it from Muhammad bin 'Amr, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurairah except from Hammad bin Salamah. 'Abdul Wahhab bin 'Ata reported it from Muhammad bib 'Amr, from Abu Salamah, and from Abu Hurairah and it is similar to the narration of Hammad bin Salamah. And this Hadith has been reported through other routes from Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, from the Prophet (ﷺ).
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 21, Hadith 71
During the affliction of Ibn Az-Zubair, two men came to Ibn `Umar and said, "The people are lost,
and you are the son of `Umar, and the companion of the Prophet, so what forbids you from coming
out?" He said, "What forbids me is that Allah has prohibited the shedding of my brother's blood."
They both said, "Didn't Allah say, 'And fight then until there is no more affliction?" He said "We
fought until there was no more affliction and the worship is for Allah (Alone while you want to fight
until there is affliction and until the worship become for other than Allah."
Narrated Nafi` (through another group of sub-narrators): A man came to Ibn `Umar and said, "O Abu
`Abdur Rahman! What made you perform Hajj in one year and Umra in another year and leave the
Jihad for Allah' Cause though you know how much Allah recommends it?" Ibn `Umar replied, "O son
of my brother! Islam is founded on five principles, i.e. believe in Allah and His Apostle, the five
compulsory prayers, the fasting of the month of Ramadan, the payment of Zakat, and the Hajj to the
House (of Allah)." The man said, "O Abu `Abdur Rahman! Won't you listen to why Allah has
mentioned in His Book: 'If two groups of believers fight each other, then make peace between them,
but if one of then transgresses beyond bounds against the other, then you all fight against the one that
transgresses. (49.9) and:--"And fight them till there is no more affliction (i.e. no more worshiping of
others along with Allah)." Ibn `Umar said, "We did it, during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) when
Islam had only a few followers. A man would be put to trial because of his religion; he would either
be killed or tortured. But when the Muslims increased, there was no more afflictions or oppressions."
The man said, "What is your opinion about `Uthman and `Ali?" Ibn `Umar said, "As for `Uthman, it
seems that Allah has forgiven him, but you people dislike that he should be forgiven. And as for `Ali,
he is the cousin of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and his son-in-law." Then he pointed with his hand and said, "That
is his house which you see."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 40
Verily the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited the words of Allah, the Great and Glorious, that Ibrahim uttered. My Lord! lo! they have led many of mankind astray:" But whoso followeth me, he verily is of me" (al-Qur'an, xiv. 35) and Jesus (peace be upon him) said:" If thou punisheth them, lo! they are Thy slaves, and if Thou forgiveth them-verily Thou art the Mighty, the Wise" (al-Qur'an, v 117). Then he raised his hands and said: O Lord, my Ummah, my Ummah, and wept; so Allah the High and the Exalted said: O Gabriel, go to Muhammad (though your Lord knows it fully well) and ask him: What makes thee weep? So Gabriel (peace be upon him) came to him and asked him, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) informed him what he had said (though Allah knew it fully well). Upon this Allah said: O Gabriel, go to Muhammad and say: Verily We will please thee with regard to your Ummah and would not displease thee.
Sahih Muslim Book 1, Hadith 405
"There were kings after 'Isa bin Mariam who altered the Tawrah and the Injil, but there were among them believers who read the Tawrah. It was said to their kings: 'We have never heard of any slander worse than that of those (believers) who slander us and recite: "And whosoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed, such are the disbelievers." In these Verses, they are criticizing us for our deeds when they recite them.' So he called them together and gave them the choice between being put to death, or giving up reading the Tawrah and Injil, except for what had been altered. They said: 'Why do you want us to change? Leave us alone.' Some of them said: 'Build us a tower and let us go up there, and give us something to lift up our food and drink so we do not have to mix with you.' Others said: 'Let us go and wander throughout the land, and we will drink as the wild animals drink, and if you capture us in your land, you may kill us.' Others said: 'Build houses for us in the wilderness, and we will dig wells and grow vegetables, and we will not mix with you or pass by you, for there is no one of the tribes among whom we do not have close relatives.' So they did that, and Allah revealed the words: 'But the monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they sought it) only to please Allah therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right observance.' Then others said: 'We will worship as so-and-so worshipped, and we will wander as so-and-so wandered, and we will adopt houses (in the wilderness) as so-and-so did.' But they were still following their Shirk with no knowledge of the faith of those whom they claimed to be following. When Allah sent the Prophet ; and He said: 'So that the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) may know that they have no power whatsoever over the Grace of Allah.'"
Sunan an-Nasa'i Book 49, Hadith 22
from Anas bin Malik: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) got married, and he went in with his wife." He said: "So my mother, Umm Sulaim prepared some Hais in a Tawr (a vessel made of brass and stone) and said: 'O Anas! Take this to the Prophet (ﷺ).' I said to him: 'My mother sent this to you, and she conveys her Salam, and says: 'This is a little something from us for you.'" He said: 'Put it down.' Then he said: 'Go and invite so-and-so, so-and-so, and so-and-so for me, and whomever you meet.'" He named some people, and said: "I invited those he named, and whomever I met." - He (Al-Ja'd) said: "I said to Anas: 'How many of you were there?' He said: 'Roughly about three-hundred.'" - He (Anas) said: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: 'O Anas! Bring me the Tawr.'" He said: "They entered until the Suffah (a shaded part of the Masjid in Al-Madinah) and the apartment were full. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Let groups of ten in, and let each person eat what is near him.'" He said: "They ate until they were full." He said: "A group exited, and another group entered, until all of them ate.'" He said: "He said to me: 'O Anas! Remove it.'" He said: "So I took it. I could not tell if there was more when I first put it down, or when I picked it up." He said: "Groups of them sat talking in the house of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), while the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and his wife sat facing the wall. They began to be burdensome on the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), so the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out to greet his women folk, then he returned, they realized that they had overburdened him, so they hastened for the gate and all of them exited. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came until he lowered the curtain, and entered while I was sitting in the apartment. He did not remain there long before he left me, and these Ayat were revealed. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out to recite them to the people: 'O you who believe! Do not enter the Prophet's house unless permission is given to you for a meal, not to wait for its preparation. But when you are invited, enter, and when you have taken your meals, dispense without sitting for a talk. Verily, such annoys the Prophet...' till the end of the Ayah (33:53)' Al-Ja'd said: "Anas said: 'I am the earliest of the people to encounter these Ayat, and to be screened from the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ)."
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 47, Hadith 270
Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Abu Umama ibn Sahl ibn
Hunayf from Abdullah ibn Abbas that Khalid ibn al-Walid ibn al-Mughira
entered the house of Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, and he was brought a roasted lizard. The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, stretched
his hand toward it. One of the women who was in Maimuna's house said,
"Tell the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
what he means to eat." Someone said, "It is a lizard, Messenger of
Allah." He withdrew his hand. Khalid said, "Is it haram, Messenger of
Allah?" He said, "No, but there were none in my people's land, and I
find that I dislike them."
Khalid added, "I chewed and ate it
while the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
was looking."
