Sahih al-Bukhari Book 46, Hadith 43
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "There was an Israeli man called Juraij, while he was praying, his mother came
and called him, but he did not respond to her call. He said (to himself) whether he should continue the
prayer or reply to his mother. She came to him the second time and called him and said, "O Allah! Do
not let him die until he sees the faces of prostitutes." Juraij used to live in a hermitage. A woman said
that she would entice Juraij, so she went to him and presented herself (for an evil act) but he refused.
She then went to a shepherd and allowed him to commit an illegal sexual intercourse with her and
later she gave birth to a boy. She alleged that the baby was from Juraij. The people went to Juraij and
broke down his hermitage, pulled him out of it and abused him. He performed ablution and offered the
prayer, then he went to the male (baby) and asked him; "O boy! Who is your father?" The baby
replied that his father was the shepherd. The people said that they would build for him a hermitage of
gold but Juraij asked them to make it of mud only."
While the Prophet (ﷺ) was with one of his wives, one of the mothers of the believers (i.e. one of his wives) sent a wooden bowl containing food with a servant. The wife (in whose house he was sitting) stroke the bowl with her hand and broke it. The Prophet (ﷺ) collected the shattered pieces and put the food back in it and said, "Eat." He kept the servant and the bowl till he had eaten the food. Then the Prophet gave another unbroken. bowl to the servant and kept the broken one.
"Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) sent an army towards the east coast and appointed Abu 'Ubaida bin Al-Jarrah as their chief, and the army consisted of three-hundred men including myself. We marched on till we reached a place where our food was about to finish. Abu- 'Ubaida ordered us to collect all the journey food and it was collected. My (our) journey food was dates. Abu 'Ubaida kept on giving us our daily ration in small amounts from it, till it was exhausted. The share of everyone of us used to be one date only." I said, "How could one date benefit you?" Jabir replied, "We came to know its value when even that too finished." Jabir added, "When we reached the sea-shore, we saw a huge fish which was like a small mountain. The army ate from it for eighteen days. Then Abu 'Ubaida ordered that two of its ribs be fixed and they were fixed in the ground. Then he ordered that a she-camel be ridden and it passed under the two ribs (forming an arch) without touching them."
