Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab, and he had heard
from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad that they said, "When a free man marries a
slave-girl and consummates the marriage, she makes him muhsan."
Malik said, "All (of the people of knowledge) I have seen said
that a slave-girl makes a free man muhsan when he marries her and
consummates the marriage."
Malik said, "A slave makes a free
woman muhsana when he consummates a marriage with her and a free woman
only makes a slave muhsan when he is freed and he is her husband and
has had sexual relations with her after he has been set free. If he
parts from her before he is free, he is not a muhsan unless he marries
her after having been set free and he consummates the marriage."
Malik said, "When a slave-girl is married to a free man and then
he separates from her before she is set free, his marriage to her does
not make her muhsana. She is not muhsana until she has married after
she has been set free and she has had intercourse with her husband.
That gives her ihsan. If she is the wife of a freeman and then she is
set free while she is his wife before he separates from her, the man
makes her muhsana if he has intercourse with her after she has been
set free."
Malik said, "The christian and jewish free women
and the muslim slave-girl all make a muslim free man muhsan when he
marries one of them and has intercourse with her."
Muwatta Malik Book 28, Hadith 44
"When the call for the prayer is given, the Shaitan takes to his heels, passing wind loudly so that he will not hear the call to prayer. When the call to prayer is finished, he comes back. And when the Iqamah is said, he again takes to his heels, and after it is completed, he returns again to interfere between the (praying) person and his heart, saying to him: 'Remember such and such, remember such and such,' - things that he had not remembered - until he does not know how many (Rak'ahs) he has prayed."
Sunan an-Nasa'i Book 7, Hadith 45
This Verse:
'Verily We have sent you (O Muhammad) as a witness, as a bringer of glad tidings and as a warner.'
(48.8)
which is in the Quran, appears in the Torah thus: 'Verily We have sent you (O Muhammad) as a
witness, as a bringer of glad tidings and as a warner, and as a protector for the illiterates (i.e., the
Arabs.) You are my slave and My Apostle, and I have named you Al-Mutawakkil (one who depends
upon Allah). You are neither hard-hearted nor of fierce character, nor one who shouts in the markets.
You do not return evil for evil, but excuse and forgive. Allah will not take you unto Him till He guides
through you a crocked (curved) nation on the right path by causing them to say: "None has the right to
be worshipped but Allah." With such a statement He will cause to open blind eyes, deaf ears and
hardened hearts.'
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 359
