Home Hadith Hadith 4296
The Prophet (ﷺ) said one statement and I said another. The Prophet (ﷺ) said "Whoever dies while still
invoking anything other than Allah as a rival to Allah, will enter Hell (Fire)." And I said, "Whoever
dies without invoking anything as a rival to Allah, will enter Paradise."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 24

I asked Anas bin Malik about Safa and Marwa. Anas replied, "We used to consider (i.e. going around)
them a custom of the Pre-islamic period of Ignorance, so when Islam came, we gave up going around
them. Then Allah revealed" "Verily, Safa and Marwa (i.e. two mountains at Mecca) are among the
Symbols of Allah. So it is not harmful of those who perform the Hajj of the House (of Allah) or
perform the Umra to ambulate (Tawaf) between them." (2.158)

The law of Qisas (i.e. equality in punishment) was prescribed for the children of Israel, but the Diya
(i.e. blood money was not ordained for them). So Allah said to this Nation (i.e. Muslims):
"O you who believe! The law of Al-Qisas (i.e. equality in punishment) is prescribed for you in cases
of murder: The free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. But if the
relatives (or one of them) of the killed (person) forgive their brother (i.e. the killers something of
Qisas (i.e. not to kill the killer by accepting blood money in the case of intentional murder)----then the
relatives (of the killed person) should demand blood-money in a reasonable manner and the killer
must pay with handsome gratitude. This is an allevitation and a Mercy from your Lord, (in
comparison to what was prescribed for the nations before you).
So after this, whoever transgresses the limits (i.e. to kill the killer after taking the blood-money) shall
have a painful torment." (2.178)
