شَكَّ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ فِي الْحَوْضِ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى أَبِي بَرْزَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ، فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ جُلَسَاءُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ: إِنَّمَا أَرْسَلَ إِلَيْكَ الْأَمِيرُ لِيَسْأَلَكَ عَنِ الْحَوْضِ، هَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِيهِ شَيْئًا ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَذْكُرُهُ، فَمَنْ كَذَّبَ بِهِ فَلَا سَقَاهُ اللهُ مِنْهُ.
✧ Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad doubted about the Hawd (Cistern), so he sent for Abu Barzah al-Aslami. He came to him, and the associates of Ubayd Allah said to him: The amir sent for you only to ask you about the Hawd. Did you hear anything about it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? He said: Yes, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mention it. So whoever denies it, may Allah not give him drink from it.

✧ Abu Barzah was at al-Ahwaz on the bank of a river, and he had put the reins in his hand and was praying. His mount began to retreat, and he moved backward with it. A man from the Khawarij began to say: 'O Allah, disgrace this old man, how can he pray!' He said: When he finished praying, he said: 'I heard your words. I campaigned with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ six, or seven, or eight times, and I witnessed his leniency and his ease. So retreating with my mount was easier for me than leaving it, for it would bolt to its accustomed place and that would be hard on me.' And Abu Barzah prayed 'Asr as two rak'ahs.

✧ I had been wishing to meet a man from the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ who would tell me about the Khawarij. I met Abu Barzah on the day of 'Arafah among a group of his companions, and I said: 'O Abu Barzah, tell us something you heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say about the Khawarij.' He said: 'I will tell you what my ears heard and my eyes saw. Some dinars were brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he was distributing them. With him was a black man with shaved hair, wearing two white garments, between whose eyes was the mark of prostration. He presented himself before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, coming to him from in front, but he gave him nothing. Then he came to him from his right, but he gave him nothing. Then he came to him from his left, but he gave him nothing. Then he came to him from behind, but he gave him nothing. He said: "By Allah, O Muhammad, you have not been just today in the distribution." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ became very angry, then said: "By Allah, after me you will not find anyone more just to you than me," saying it three times. Then he said: "From the direction of the east will come forth men like this one among them. Their guidance is like this; they recite the Qur'an but it does not go beyond their collarbones. They pass through the religion as an arrow passes through the target, and they do not return to it." And he placed his hand on his chest. "Their mark is shaving the head.

✧ "Julaibib used to enter upon women and interact with them. So I said to my wife, 'Julaibib should not enter upon you, for if he were to enter upon you, I am afraid that he would do something.' The Ansar would not marry off their daughters until they found out if there was any need for the Prophet, ﷺ, in her. So the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ, said to a man from the Ansar, 'Marry your daughter to me.' He said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah, this is certainly an honor.' The Prophet, ﷺ, said, 'I don't want her for myself, but I want her for Julaibib.' The man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, for Julaibib?' He said, 'Yes, for Julaibib.' So he consulted her mother, and when the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ, came, he informed her of what her mother had said. She said, 'Julaibib, is it him?' She repeated this three times. 'Yes, by Allah, for I will not marry him.' So when he wanted to stand up to inform the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ, of what she had said, the girl said, 'Who proposed to me to you?' Her mother informed her. She said, 'Are you rejecting the command of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ ?' Push me, for he has not disappointed me.' So her father went to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ, and informed him. He said, 'What is your opinion about her?' Then he married her to Julaibib. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ, went on a campaign, and when Allah granted them victory, he asked his companions, 'Have you lost anyone?' They said, 'We have lost so-and-so, and we have lost so-and-so.' He said, 'Look, have you lost anyone?' They said, 'No.' He said, 'But I have lost Julaibib.' So seek him among the slain.' They searched for him until they found him beside seven men he had killed, and then they killed him.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, here he is, beside seven men he had killed, and then they killed him.' So the Prophet, ﷺ, stood over him and said, 'He has killed seven and then they killed him. This one is from me and I am from him. This one is from me and I am from him.' He raised his head and placed him on his side, and there was no bed except that of the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ. Then he placed him in his grave. It is not mentioned that he was bathed. Thabit said, 'Wealth that the Ansar had would be spent but they did not find anyone who narrated about it in this world except Hammad bin Salamah. How well he narrated it.'"

✧ I entered with my father upon Abu Barzah al-Aslami, and at that time I had two earrings in my ears. He said: I was a boy. Abu Barzah said: I praise God that I have become one who blames this clan of Quraysh. So-and-so is here fighting for this world, and so-and-so is here fighting for this world—meaning ʿAbd al-Malik b. Marwan. Then he mentioned Ibn al-Azraq. Then he said: The people dearest to me are this matted-haired band, whose bellies are lean from the wealth of the Muslims and whose backs are light from their blood. He said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said: The rulers are from Quraysh, the rulers are from Quraysh, the rulers are from Quraysh. I have a right over them and they have a right over you, as long as they do three things: when they judge, they are just; when they are asked for mercy, they show mercy; and when they make a covenant, they fulfill it. Whoever of them does not do that, upon him is the curse of God, the angels, and all people.

✧ Would that I could see a man from the Companions of Muhammad ﷺ who would tell me about the Kharijites. He said: I met Abu Barzah among a group of the Companions of Muhammad ﷺ and said: Tell me something you heard from the Messenger of God ﷺ about the Kharijites. He said: I shall tell you something that my ears heard and my eyes saw. The Messenger of God ﷺ was brought some dinars and he divided them. There was a man with close-cropped hair, dark-skinned—or black—with the mark of prostration between his eyes, wearing two white garments. He kept approaching him from his right side, trying to get his attention, but he gave him nothing. He said: O Muhammad, you have not been just today in the division. He became intensely angry and said: By God, after me you will not find anyone more just to you than me—three times. Then he said: From the east will come men as if this man is one of them. Their manner is like this. They recite the Quran but it does not go beyond their collarbones. They pass through the religion as an arrow passes through its target, then they do not return to it. Their mark is shaving. They will keep emerging until the last of them emerges with the Dajjal. When you meet them, kill them. They are the worst of creation and creatures.

✧ Julaybib was from the Ansar. When one of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ had an unmarried woman, he would not marry her off until he knew whether the Prophet ﷺ had any need for her. One day the Messenger of God ﷺ said to a man of the Ansar: Marry your daughter to me. He said: Yes, and a blessing to the eye. He said to him: I do not want her for myself. He said: For whom then? He said: For Julaybib. He said: Until I consult her mother. He went to her and said: The Messenger of God ﷺ is asking for your daughter's hand. She said: Yes, and a blessing to the eye. Marry her to the Messenger of God ﷺ. He said: He does not want her for himself. She said: For whom then? He said: For Julaybib. She said: How awful! Julaybib? Indeed? Twice. No, by the life of God, I will not marry Julaybib. He said: When her father arose to go to the Prophet ﷺ, the young woman said to her mother from behind her curtain: Who has asked for my hand from you two? She said: The Prophet ﷺ. She said: Will you refuse the Prophet ﷺ his request? Give me to the Prophet ﷺ, for he will not waste me. Her father came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: She is yours to dispose of. So he married her to Julaybib. While the Prophet ﷺ was on one of his expeditions, and God, blessed and exalted, granted him spoils, the Messenger of God ﷺ said: Do you miss anyone? They said: We miss so-and-so and so-and-so. The Prophet ﷺ said: But I miss Julaybib. Look for him among the slain. They looked for him and found him beside seven whom he had killed, then they killed him. He said: The Prophet ﷺ stood and said: He killed seven, then they killed him. This one is from me and I am from him. Then the Messenger of God ﷺ carried him on his own forearms; he had no bier other than the forearms of the Messenger of God ﷺ until a grave was dug for him. Then he placed him in his niche, and he did not mention washing.

She vowed that if Allah [Mighty and Majestic be He] saved her on it, she would slaughter it. When she arrived in Madinah, the camel was recognized, and it was said: "The she-camel of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." The Prophet ﷺ was informed of her vow, or she came to him and told him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "What a bad way she has repaid it," or "what a bad way you have repaid it, if Allah [Blessed and Exalted be He] saved her on it, she would slaughter it." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "No fulfillment of a vow in disobedience to Allah, nor in what a son of Adam does not own."

✧ I prayed behind 'Ali b. Abi Talib a prayer that reminded me of a prayer I had prayed with the Messenger of God ﷺ and the two caliphs. He said: I went and prayed with him, and he was saying the takbir every time he prostrated and every time he raised his head from bowing. I said: "O Abu Nujayd, who was the first to abandon it?" He said: "'Uthman b. 'Affan, when he grew old and his voice weakened, he abandoned it."
Musnad Ahmad 19882Sahih
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ، أَوْ لِغَيْرِهِ: هَلْ صُمْتَ سِرَارَ هَذَا الشَّهْرِ ؟ قَالَ: لَا. قَالَ: فَإِذَا أَفْطَرْتَ أَوْ أَفْطَرَ النَّاسُ، فَصُمْ يَوْمَيْنِ
✧ The Prophet ﷺ said to him, or to someone else: "Have you fasted the last days of this month?" He said: "No." He said: "When you break your fast, or when the people break their fast, then fast two days."
Musnad Ahmad 19883Sahih
كَانَتِ امْرَأَةٌ أَسَرَهَا الْعَدُوُّ، وَكَانُوا يُرِيحُونَ إِبِلَهُمْ عِشَاءً، فَأَتَتِ الْإِبِلَ تُرِيدُ مِنْهَا بَعِيرًا تَرْكَبُهُ، فَكُلَّمَا دَنَتْ مِنْ بَعِيرٍ رَغَا، فَتَرَكَتْهُ حَتَّى أَتَتْ نَاقَةً مِنْهَا فَلَمْ تَرْغُ فَرَكِبَتْ عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ نَجَتْ فَقَدِمَتِ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَلَمَّا رَآهَا النَّاسُ قَالُوا: نَاقَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْعَضْبَاءُ، قَالَتْ: إِنِّي نَذَرْتُ أَنْ أَنْحَرَهَا إِنِ اللهُ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] أَنْجَانِي عَلَيْهَا، قَالَ: بِئْسَمَا جَزَيْتِيهَا، لَا نَذْرَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ، وَلَا نَذْرَ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ]
✧ There was a woman whom the enemy had taken captive, and they used to bring their camels back in the evening. She came to the camels wanting a camel from them to ride, but every time she approached a camel it bellowed, so she left it until she came to a she-camel among them that did not bellow, and she rode it. Then she escaped and arrived in Madinah. When the people saw her, they said: "The she-camel of the Messenger of God ﷺ, al-'Adba'." She said: "I vowed to slaughter it if God [Mighty and Majestic] saved me on it." He said: "What a bad reward you have given it. There is no vow for a son of Adam in what he does not own, and no vow in disobedience to God [Mighty and Majestic]."
Musnad Ahmad 19884Sahih
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ، فَنَزَلَتْ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّ زَلْزَلَةَ السَّاعَةِ - [سَقَطَ] عَلَى أَبِي كَلِمَةٌ - رَاحِلَتَهُ، وَقَفَ النَّاسُ، قَالَ: هَلْ تَدْرُونَ أَيُّ يَوْمٍ ذَاكَ ؟ قَالُوا: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ - سَقَطَتْ عَلَى أَبِي كَلِمَةٌ - يَقُولُ: يَا آدَمُ ابْعَثْ بَعْثَ النَّارِ، قَالَ: وَمَا بَعْثُ النَّارِ ؟ قَالَ: مِنْ كُلِّ أَلْفٍ تِسْعَمِائَةٍ وَتِسْعَةً وَتِسْعِينَ إِلَى النَّارِ، قَالَ: فَبَكَوْا، قَالَ: قَارِبُوا وَسَدِّدُوا، مَا أَنْتُمْ فِي الْأُمَمِ إِلَّا كَالرَّقْمَةِ، إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا رُبُعَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ، إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا ثُلُثَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ
✧ We were with the Messenger of God ﷺ on a journey, and it was revealed: 'O mankind, fear your Lord; indeed the earthquake of the Hour...'—[a word dropped for Abu]—his mount, and the people stopped. He said: "Do you know what day that is?" They said: "God and His Messenger know best"—a word dropped for Abu—he says: "O Adam, send forth the delegation of the Fire." He said: "And what is the delegation of the Fire?" He said: "From every thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine to the Fire." He said: So they wept. He said: "Draw near and be steadfast. You are not among the nations except like a white mark on a black hide, or a black mark on a white hide. I hope that you will be a quarter of the people of Paradise. I hope that you will be a third of the people of Paradise."
Musnad Ahmad 19885Hasan
مَرَّ بِرَجُلٍ وَهُوَ يَقْرَأُ عَلَى قَوْمٍ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ سَأَلَ، فَقَالَ عِمْرَانُ: إِنَّا لِلهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَنْ قَرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ فَلْيَسْأَلِ اللهَ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] بِهِ، فَإِنَّهُ سَيَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ يَقْرَؤُونَ الْقُرْآنَ يَسْأَلُونَ النَّاسَ بِهِ
✧ He passed by a man who was reciting to a group of people, and when he finished, he asked [for payment]. Imran said: "Indeed we belong to God and to Him we return. I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: 'Whoever recites the Qur'an, let him ask God [Blessed and Exalted] by it, for there will come a people who recite the Qur'an and ask people by it.'"
Musnad Ahmad 19886Sahih
جَاءَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَاسٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ فَقَالَ: أَبْشِرُوا يَا بَنِي تَمِيمٍ، قَالُوا: بَشَّرْتَنَا فَأَعْطِنَا ؟ قَالَ: فَكَأَنَّ وَجْهَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَادَ أَنْ يَتَغَيَّرَ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ جَاءَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمُ: اقْبَلُوا الْبُشْرَى إِذْ لَمْ يَقْبَلْهَا بَنُو تَمِيمٍ، قَالُوا: قَدْ قَبِلْنَا
✧ Some people from Banu Tamim came to the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: "Rejoice, O Banu Tamim." They said: "You have given us good news, so give us?" He said: It was as if the face of the Messenger of God ﷺ was about to change. He said: Then some people from the people of Yemen came, and he said to them: "Accept the good news, since Banu Tamim did not accept it." They said: "We have accepted."
Musnad Ahmad 19887Sahih
كُنْتُ رَجُلًا ذَا أَسْقَامٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، فَسَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ صَلَاتِي قَاعِدًا قَالَ: صَلَاتُكَ قَاعِدًا عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ قَائِمًا، وَصَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ مُضْطَجِعًا عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ قَاعِدًا
✧ I was a man with many illnesses, so I asked the Messenger of God ﷺ about my prayer while sitting. He said: "Your prayer while sitting is half of your prayer while standing, and the prayer of a man lying down is half of his prayer while sitting."

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed the noon prayer, and when he finished he said: 'Which of you recited "Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High"?' Some of the people said: 'I did, O Messenger of Allah.' He said: 'I knew that one of you was contending with me over it.'
Musnad Ahmad 19890Sahih

قِيلَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ فُلَانًا لَا يُفْطِرُ نَهَارًا ؟ قَالَ: لَا أَفْطَرَ وَلَا صَامَ
✧ It was said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: 'So-and-so does not break his fast by day.' He said: 'He has neither broken his fast nor fasted.'
قَالَ لِي عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ: أَيْ مُطَرِّفُ، وَاللهِ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَرَى أَنِّي لَوْ شِئْتُ حَدَّثْتُ عَنْ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ لَا أُعِيدُ [فِيهِ] حَدِيثًا، ثُمَّ لَقَدْ زَادَنِي بُطْئًا عَنْ ذَلِكَ وَكَرَاهِيَةً لَهُ أَنَّ رِجَالًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ، أَوْ مِنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ شَهِدْتُ كَمَا شَهِدُوا، وَسَمِعْتُ كَمَا سَمِعُوا، يُحَدِّثُونَ أَحَادِيثَ مَا هِيَ كَمَا يَقُولُونَ، وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَأْلُونَ عَنِ الْخَيْرِ، فَأَخَافُ أَنْ يُشَبَّهَ لِي كَمَا شُبِّهَ لَهُمْ، فَكَانَ أَحْيَانًا يَقُولُ: لَوْ حَدَّثْتُكُمْ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ مِنْ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ كَذَا وَكَذَا، رَأَيْتُ أَنِّي قَدْ صَدَقْتُ، وَأَحْيَانًا يَعْزِمُ فَيَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا.
✧ Imran b. Husayn said to me: 'O Mutarrif, by Allah, I used to think that if I wished I could relate from the Prophet of Allah ﷺ for two consecutive days without repeating a hadith. Then what made me slower and more averse to that was that men among the companions of Muhammad ﷺ—or some of the companions of Muhammad ﷺ—whom I witnessed as they witnessed and heard as they heard, would relate hadiths that were not as they said. I knew they were not negligent of good, so I feared that it would be made unclear to me as it was made unclear to them. Sometimes he would say: "If I related to you that I heard from the Prophet of Allah ﷺ such-and-such, I would think I had spoken truthfully," and sometimes he would resolve and say: "I heard the Prophet of Allah ﷺ say such-and-such."'
Musnad Ahmad 19894Sahih
كَانَتْ ثَقِيفُ حُلَفَاءَ لِبَنِي عُقَيْلٍ، فَأَسَرَتْ ثَقِيفُ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وَأَسَرَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي عُقَيْلٍ، وَأُصِيبَتْ مَعَهُ الْعَضْبَاءُ، فَأَتَى عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي الْوَثَاقِ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، يَا مُحَمَّدُ، فَقَالَ: مَا شَأْنُكَ ؟ فَقَالَ: بِمَ أَخَذْتَنِي، بِمَ أَخَذْتَ سَابِقَةَ الْحَاجِّ ؟ إِعْظَامًا لِذَلِكَ. فَقَالَ: أَخَذْتُكَ بِجَرِيرَةِ حُلَفَائِكَ ثَقِيفٍ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، يَا مُحَمَّدُ. وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَحِيمًا رَقِيقًا فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: مَا شَأْنُكَ ؟ قَالَ: إِنِّي مُسْلِمٌ، قَالَ: لَوْ قُلْتَهَا وَأَنْتَ تَمْلِكُ أَمْرَكَ أَفْلَحْتَ كُلَّ الْفَلَاحِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ عَنْهُ، فَنَادَاهُ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، يَا مُحَمَّدُ، فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: مَا شَأْنُكَ ؟ قَالَ: إِنِّي جَائِعٌ فَأَطْعِمْنِي وَظَمْآنُ فَاسْقِنِي ؟ قَالَ: هَذِهِ حَاجَتُكَ، قَالَ: فَفُدِيَ بِالرَّجُلَيْنِ. وَأُسِرَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، وَأُصِيبَ مَعَهَا الْعَضْبَاءُ، فَكَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فِي الْوَثَاقِ، فَانْفَلَتَتْ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ مِنَ الْوَثَاقِ، فَأَتَتِ الْإِبِلَ، فَجَعَلَتْ إِذَا دَنَتْ مِنَ الْبَعِيرِ رَغَا، فَتَتْرُكُهُ حَتَّى تَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى الْعَضْبَاءِ، فَلَمْ تَرْغُ، قَالَ: وَنَاقَةٌ مُنَوَّقَةٌ، فَقَعَدَتْ فِي عَجُزِهَا ثُمَّ زَجَرَتْهَا فَانْطَلَقَتْ، وَنَذَرُوا بِهَا فَطَلَبُوهَا فَأَعْجَزَتْهُمْ، فَنَذَرَتْ إِنِ اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] أَنْجَاهَا [عَلَيْهَا] لَتَنْحَرَنَّهَا، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَتِ الْمَدِينَةَ رَآهَا النَّاسُ فَقَالُوا: الْعَضْبَاءُ نَاقَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ: إِنِّي قَدْ نَذَرْتُ إِنْ أَنْجَاهَا اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] عَلَيْهَا لَتَنْحَرَنَّهَا، فَأَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، بِئْسَمَا جَزَتْهَا إِنِ اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] أَنْجَاهَا لَتَنْحَرَنَّهَا، لَا وَفَاءَ لِنَذْرٍ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ، وَلَا نَذْرَ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ الْعَبْدُ
✧ Thaqif were allies of Banu Uqayl. Thaqif captured two men from the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ captured a man from Banu Uqayl, and with him the she-camel al-Adba was seized. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to him while he was in bonds, and he said: 'O Muhammad, O Muhammad.' He said: 'What is your matter?' He said: 'Why have you taken me, and why have you taken the foremost of the pilgrims?' in awe of that. He said: 'I took you because of the crime of your allies, Thaqif.' Then he turned away from him, and he said: 'O Muhammad, O Muhammad.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was merciful and tender, so he came to him and said: 'What is your matter?' He said: 'I am a Muslim.' He said: 'If you had said that while you had control of your affair, you would have succeeded completely.' Then he turned away from him, and he called him: 'O Muhammad, O Muhammad.' He came to him and said: 'What is your matter?' He said: 'I am hungry, so feed me, and thirsty, so give me drink.' He said: 'This is your need.' He said: So he was ransomed for the two men. A woman of the Ansar was captured, and al-Adba was seized with her. The woman was in bonds, and one night she slipped out of the bonds and went to the camels. Whenever she approached a camel it bellowed, so she left it until she came to al-Adba, and it did not bellow. He said: And it was a trained she-camel. She sat on its hindquarters, then urged it, and it set off. They became aware of her and pursued her, but she eluded them. She vowed that if Allah, Blessed and Exalted, saved her on it, she would certainly slaughter it. When she reached Madinah, the people saw her and said: 'Al-Adba, the she-camel of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ!' She said: 'I vowed that if Allah, Blessed and Exalted, saved me on it, I would certainly slaughter it.' They went to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned that to him, and he said: 'Glory be to Allah! How badly she has repaid it. If Allah, Blessed and Exalted, saved her, she would slaughter it. There is no fulfillment of a vow in disobedience to Allah, and no vow in what a servant does not possess.'

✧ Imran said to me: 'I relate to you a hadith today so that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, may benefit you by it after today. Know that the best of Allah's servants, Blessed and Exalted, on the Day of Resurrection are those who praise Him much. Know that a group of the people of Islam will continue fighting for the truth, victorious over those who oppose them, until they fight the Dajjal. Know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed umrah with a group of his family in the ten days, and no verse came to abrogate that, nor did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbid it until he passed away. After that, every person could hold whatever opinion he wished.'

عَلَيْكَ بِالصَّعِيدِ، فَإِنَّهُ يَكْفِيكَ. ثُمَّ سَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَاشْتَكَى إِلَيْهِ النَّاسُ الْعَطَشَ، فَنَزَلَ فَدَعَا فُلَانًا كَانَ يُسَمِّيهِ أَبُو رَجَاءٍ وَنَسِيَهُ عَوْفٌ، وَدَعَا عَلِيًّا فَقَالَ: اذْهَبَا فَابْغِيَا لَنَا الْمَاءَ، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقَا فَيَلْقَيَانِ امْرَأَةً بَيْنَ مَزَادَتَيْنِ أَوْ سَطِيحَتَيْنِ مِنْ مَاءٍ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ لَهَا، فَقَالَا لَهَا: أَيْنَ الْمَاءُ ؟ فَقَالَتْ: عَهْدِي بِالْمَاءِ أَمْسِ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ، وَنَفَرُنَا خُلُوفٌ، قَالَ: فَقَالَا لَهَا: انْطَلِقِي إِذًا، قَالَتْ: إِلَى أَيْنَ ؟ قَالَا: إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ [ ﷺ ]، قَالَتْ: هَذَا الَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ الصَّابِئُ ؟ قَالَا: هُوَ الَّذِي تَعْنِينَ، فَانْطَلِقِي إِذًا، فَجَاءَا بِهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَحَدَّثَاهُ الْحَدِيثَ، فَاسْتَنْزَلُوهَا عَنْ بَعِيرِهَا، وَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِإِنَاءٍ فَأَفْرَغَ فِيهِ مِنْ أَفْوَاهِ الْمَزَادَتَيْنِ أَوِ السَّطِيحَتَيْنِ، وَأَوْكَى أَفْوَاهَهُمَا فَأَطْلَقَ الْعَزَالِيَ، وَنُودِيَ فِي النَّاسِ أَنِ اسْقُوا وَاسْتَقُوا، فَسَقَى مَنْ شَاءَ وَاسْتَقَى مَنْ شَاءَ، وَكَانَ آخِرَ ذَلِكَ أَنْ أَعْطَى الَّذِي أَصَابَتْهُ الْجَنَابَةُ إِنَاءً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَقَالَ: اذْهَبْ فَأَفْرِغْهُ عَلَيْكَ، قَالَ: وَهِيَ قَائِمَةٌ تَنْظُرُ مَا يُفْعَلُ بِمَائِهَا، قَالَ: وَايْمُ اللهِ لَقَدْ أُقْلِعَ عَنْهَا وَإِنَّهُ لَيُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْنَا أَنَّهَا أَشَدُّ مِلْأَةً مِنْهَا حِينَ ابْتَدَأَ فِيهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: اجْمَعُوا لَهَا، فَجُمِعَ لَهَا مِنْ بَيْنِ عَجْوَةٍ وَدَقِيقَةٍ وَسَوِيقَةٍ، حَتَّى جَمَعُوا لَهَا طَعَامًا كَثِيرًا وَجَعَلُوهُ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَحَمَلُوهَا عَلَى بَعِيرِهَا، وَوَضَعُوا الثَّوْبَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهَا، فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: تَعْلَمِينَ وَاللهِ مَا رَزَأْنَاكِ مِنْ مَائِكِ شَيْئًا، وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] هُوَ سَقَانَا، قَالَ: فَأَتَتْ أَهْلَهَا وَقَدِ احْتَبَسَتْ عَنْهُمْ، فَقَالُوا: مَا حَبَسَكِ يَا فُلَانَةُ ؟ فَقَالَتِ: الْعَجَبُ، لَقِيَنِي رَجُلَانِ، فَذَهَبَا بِي إِلَى هَذَا الَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ الصَّابِئُ، فَفَعَلَ بِمَائِي كَذَا وَكَذَا، لِلَّذِي قَدْ كَانَ، فَوَاللهِ إِنَّهُ لَأَسْحَرُ مَنْ بَيْنَ هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ، وَقَالَتْ بِإِصْبَعَيْهَا الْوُسْطَى وَالسَّبَّابَةِ فَرَفَعَتْهُمَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، تَعْنِي السَّمَاءَ وَالْأَرْضَ، أَوْ إِنَّهُ لَرَسُولُ اللهِ حَقًّا، قَالَ: وَكَانَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ بَعْدُ يُغِيرُونَ عَلَى مَا حَوْلَهَا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، وَلَا يُصِيبُونَ الصِّرْمَ الَّذِي هِيَ مِنْهُ، فَقَالَتْ يَوْمًا لِقَوْمِهَا: مَا أَدْرِي أَنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ الْقَوْمَ يَدَعُونَكُمْ عَمْدًا، فَهَلْ لَكُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ ؟ فَأَطَاعُوهَا، فَدَخَلُوا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وما بين المعقوفين غير موجود في طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وما بين المعقوفين غير موجود في طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: فجمعوا. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وما بين المعقوفين غير موجود في طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: أرى.
Once we were traveling with the Prophet ﷺ and we carried on traveling till the last part of the night and then we (halted at a place) and slept (deeply). There is nothing sweeter than sleep for a traveler in the last part of the night. So it was only the heat of the sun that made us to wake up and the first to wake up was so and so, then so and so and then so and so (the narrator ʿAuf said that Abu Raja' had told him their names but he had forgotten them) and the fourth person to wake up was ʿUmar bin Al- Khattab. And whenever the Prophet ﷺ used to sleep, nobody would wake up him till he himself used to get up as we did not know what was happening (being revealed) to him in his sleep. So, ʿUmar got up and saw the condition of the people, and he was a strict man, so he said, "Allahu Akbar" and raised his voice with Takbir, and kept on saying loudly till the Prophet ﷺ got up because of it. When he got up, the people informed him about what had happened to them. He said, "There is no harm (or it will not be harmful). Depart!" So they departed from that place, and after covering some distance the Prophet ﷺ stopped and asked for some water to perform the ablution. So he performed the ablution and the call for the prayer was pronounced and he led the people in prayer. After he finished from the prayer, he saw a man sitting aloof who had not prayed with the people. He asked, "O so and so! What has prevented you from praying with us?" He replied, "I am Junub and there is no water. " The Prophet ﷺ said, "Perform Tayammum with (clean) earth and that is sufficient for you." Then the Prophet ﷺ proceeded on and the people complained to him of thirst. Thereupon he got down and called a person (the narrator ʿAuf added that Abu Raja' had named him but he had forgotten) and ʿAli, and ordered them to go and bring water. So they went in search of water and met a woman who was sitting on her camel between two bags of water. They asked, "Where can we find water?" She replied, "I was there (at the place of water) this hour yesterday and my people are behind me." They requested her to accompany them. She asked, "Where?" They said, "To Messenger of Allah ﷺ." She said, "Do you mean the man who is called the Sabi, (with a new religion)?" They replied, "Yes, the same person. So come along." They brought her to the Prophet ﷺ and narrated the whole story. He said, "Help her to dismount." The Prophet ﷺ asked for a pot, then he opened the mouths of the bags and poured some water into the pot. Then he closed the big openings of the bags and opened the small ones and the people were called upon to drink and water their animals. So they all watered their animals and they (too) all quenched their thirst and also gave water to others and last of all the Prophet ﷺ gave a pot full of water to the person who was Junub and told him to pour it over his body. The woman was standing and watching all that which they were doing with her water. By Allah, when her water bags were returned the looked like as if they were more full (of water) than they had been before (Miracle of Messenger of Allah ﷺ) Then the Prophet ﷺ ordered us to collect something for her; so dates, flour and Sawiq were collected which amounted to a good meal that was put in a piece of cloth. She was helped to ride on her camel and that cloth full of foodstuff was also placed in front of her and then the Prophet ﷺ said to her, "We have not taken your water but Allah has given water to us." She returned home late. Her relatives asked her: "O so and so what has delayed you?" She said, "A strange thing! Two men met me and took me to the man who is called the Sabi' and he did such and such a thing. By Allah, he is either the greatest magician between this and this (gesturing with her index and middle fingers raising them towards the sky indicating the heaven and the earth) or he is Allah's true Apostle." Afterwards the Muslims used to attack the pagans around her abode but never touched her village. One day she said to her people, "I think that these people leave you purposely. Have you got any inclination to Islam?" They obeyed her and all of them embraced Islam. Abu ʿAbdullah said: The word Saba'a means "The one who has deserted his old religion and embraced a new religion." Abul 'Ailya [??] said, "The SʿAbis are a sect of people of the Scripture who recite the Book of Psalms." (Using translation from Bukhārī 344)

Indeed, the convulsion of the Hour is a terrible thing. On the day you see it, every nursing mother will forget her nursing...' until he reached the end of the two verses. He said: When his companions heard that, they urged their mounts and knew he was about to say something. When they gathered around him, he said: 'Do you know what day that is? That is the day Adam will be called, and his Lord, Blessed and Exalted, will call him: "O Adam, send a delegation to the Fire." He will say: "O Lord, what is the delegation of the Fire?" He said: "From every thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine to the Fire, and one to Paradise."' He said: His companions became despondent until they did not even smile. When he saw that, he said: 'Work and rejoice, for by the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, you are with two creations that have never been with anything except that they made it numerous: Gog and Magog, and those who have perished from the descendants of Adam and the descendants of Iblis.' He said: Then their anxiety was relieved. Then he said: 'Work and rejoice, for by the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, you are among mankind only like a mole on the side of a camel, or a mark on the foreleg of a beast.'

A man from my kin went with them, and when he returned to the Prophet ﷺ he said, 'O Prophet of Allah, ask forgiveness for me, may Allah forgive you.' He said, 'Did you do something new?' He said, 'When the people were defeated, I caught up with two men between the people and the women, and they said, "We are Muslims," or they said, "We have become Muslim," so I killed them.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'For what do I fight the people except for Islam? By Allah, I will not ask forgiveness for you,' or as he said. Then he died afterward and his clan buried him, but in the morning the earth had cast him out. Then they buried him again and guarded him, but the earth cast him out a second time. Then they said, 'Perhaps someone came while you were asleep and took him out,' so they buried him a third time and guarded him, but the earth cast him out a third time. When they saw that, they left him, or as he said.

✧ That his father or his paternal uncle stood up to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "My neighbors, for what were they taken?" He turned away from him. Then he said: "Tell me for what they were taken?" He turned away from him. Then he said: "Tell me for what they were taken?" He turned away from him. He said: "If you say that, they will claim that you forbid error and yet engage in it yourself." The Prophet ﷺ said: "What did he say?" Then his brother or his nephew stood up and said: "O Messenger of God, he said... You have said it, or it is one of your sayers. If I were doing that, it would be upon me, not upon you. Release his neighbors to him."

✧ The Prophet ﷺ took some people from my tribe on suspicion and detained them. A man from my tribe came to the Prophet ﷺ while he was delivering a sermon and said: "O Muhammad, why do you detain my neighbors?" The Prophet ﷺ remained silent. He said: "Some people say that you forbid evil and yet engage in it yourself." The Prophet ﷺ said: "What is he saying?" He said: "I began to interpose between them with words, fearing that he would hear it and supplicate against my tribe with a supplication after which they would never succeed. The Prophet ﷺ did not cease until he understood it. He said: "They have said it, or is it one of their sayers? By God, if I did that, it would be upon me, not upon them. Release his neighbors to him."

He said: "That your heart submits to God [Exalted is He], and that you turn your face to God [Exalted is He], and you pray the prescribed prayer, and give the obligatory zakat. Two supportive brothers: God [Mighty and Majestic is He] does not accept from anyone who associates partners after his Islam a repentance." I said: "What is the right of one of our wives upon him?" He said: "That you feed her when you eat, and clothe her when you clothe yourself, and do not strike the face, and do not revile, and do not forsake except in the house." He said: "You will be gathered here," and he pointed with his hand toward Syria, "walking and riding, and on your faces. You will be presented to God [Exalted is He] with muzzles on your mouths, and the first thing that will speak for one of you is his thigh."

✧ A man among those before you, God [Exalted is He] gave him abundant wealth and children, until one era passed and another came. When he was on his deathbed, he said to his children: "What kind of father was I to you?" They said: "The best father." He said: "Will you obey me? Otherwise I will take my wealth from you. When I die, burn me until you leave me as cinders, then crush me with the mortar," and the Messenger of God ﷺ moved his hand opposite his knees. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "By God, they did it."

✧ I came to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said: O Messenger of God, by God, I did not come to you until I had sworn more than the number of these—and he struck one of his hands on the other—that I would not come to you, nor to your religion. And I have come as a man who does not understand anything except what God [Mighty and Majestic] and His Messenger have taught me. And I ask you by the face of God: with what did our Lord send you to us? He said: With Islam. I said: O Messenger of God, what is the sign of Islam? He said: That you say, 'I have submitted my face to God and turned away [from other gods],' and you establish prayer, and you give zakah. Every Muslim is inviolable to another Muslim; [they are] two brothers, [each] a helper. God [Mighty and Majestic] does not accept from a polytheist who associates partners after he has submitted any deed, or [until] he separates from the polytheists to the Muslims. What is it with me holding onto your waistbands [to keep you] from the Fire? Indeed, my Lord is calling me, and He will ask me: 'Have you conveyed to My servants?' And I will say to Him: 'My Lord, I have conveyed to them.' So let the one present among you convey to the one absent. Then you will be called, with your mouths muzzled with the fidam. And the first thing to be shown—and he said in Wasit: to speak—he said: and the Messenger of God ﷺ said, moving his hand on his thigh. He said: I said: O Messenger of God, is this our religion? He said: This is your religion, and wherever you do good, it will suffice you.

✧ For every pasture-fed camel: for every forty, a bint labun. Camels are not to be separated from their count. Whoever gives it seeking reward, he will have its reward.

إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَبْدٌ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللهِ، أَعْطَاهُ اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] مَالًا وَوَلَدًا، وَكَانَ لَا يَدِينُ اللهَ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] دِينًا، قَالَ يَزِيدُ: فَلَبِثَ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عُمُرٌ وَبَقِيَ عُمُرٌ، تَذَكَّرَ، فَعَلِمَ أَنْ لَمْ يَبْتَئِرْ عِنْدَ اللهِ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] خَيْرًا، دَعَا بَنِيهِ فَقَالَ: يَا بَنِيَّ أَيُّ أَبٍ تَعْلَمُونِي ؟ قَالُوا: خَيْرَهُ يَا أَبَانَا، قَالَ: فَوَاللهِ لَا أَدَعُ عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ مِنْكُمْ مَالًا هُوَ مِنِّي إِلَّا أَنَا آخِذُهُ مِنْهُ، أَوْ لَتَفْعَلُنَّ مَا آمُرُكُمْ بِهِ، قَالَ: فَأَخَذَ مِنْهُمْ مِيثَاقًا، قَالَ: إِمَّا لَا، فَإِذَا مُتُّ فَخُذُونِي، فَأَلْقُونِي فِي النَّارِ، حَتَّى إِذَا كُنْتُ حُمَمًا فَدُقُّونِي، قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ كَأَنَّهُ يَقُولُ: اسْحَقُونِي، ثُمَّ ذَرُّونِي فِي الرِّيحِ، لَعَلِّي أُضِلُّ اللهَ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] ! قَالَ: فَفُعِلَ بِهِ ذَلِكَ وَرَبِّ مُحَمَّدٍ حِينَ مَاتَ. قَالَ: فَجِيءَ بِهِ أَحْسَنَ مَا كَانَ، فَعُرِضَ عَلَى رَبِّهِ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] فَقَالَ: مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى النَّارِ ؟ قَالَ: خَشْيَتُكَ يَا رَبَّاهُ، قَالَ: إِنِّي لَأَسْمَعَنَّ الرَّاهِبَةَ، قَالَ يَزِيدُ: أَسْمَعُكَ رَاهِبًا، فَتِيبَ عَلَيْهِ. قَالَ بَهْزٌ: فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ الْحَسَنَ وَقَتَادَةَ، وَحَدَّثَانِيهِ: فَتِيبَ عَلَيْهِ، أَوْ فَتَابَ اللهُ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] عَلَيْهِ،
✧ There was a servant among the servants of God, to whom God [Blessed and Exalted] gave wealth and children. He did not profess any religion to God [Mighty and Majestic]. Yazid said: He remained until one lifetime passed and another remained. Then he remembered, and he knew that he had not stored up any good with God [Blessed and Exalted]. He called his sons and said: 'O my sons, what kind of father do you know me to be?' They said: 'The best, O our father.' He said: 'By God, I will not leave with any man among you wealth that is from me except that I take it from him, or you must do what I command you.' He said: He took a covenant from them, and said: 'If not, then when I die, take me and throw me into the fire until I become charcoal, then crush me.' He said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said, motioning with his hand on his thigh, as if saying: 'Grind me.' 'Then scatter me in the wind, perhaps I will elude God [Blessed and Exalted]!' He said: And by the Lord of Muhammad, that was done to him when he died. He said: Then he was brought in the best form he had ever been, and presented to his Lord [Blessed and Exalted]. He said: 'What made you face the fire?' He said: 'Fear of You, O my Lord.' He said: 'I certainly hear the fearful one.' Yazid said: 'I hear you as a fearful one.' So he was forgiven. Bahz said: I narrated this hadith to al-Hasan and Qatadah, and they narrated it to me: 'So he was forgiven,' or 'God [Mighty and Majestic] turned to him in mercy.'

✧ I said: O Messenger of God, our private parts—what may we expose of them and what must we conceal? He said: Guard your private part except from your wife or what your right hand possesses. I said: What if people are with one another? He said: If you can manage that no one sees it, then let no one see it. I said: What if one of us is alone? He said: God [Blessed and Exalted] is more deserving that one be modest before Him than before people.

✧ His brother or his uncle went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "My neighbors have mistreated me, what should I do?" The Prophet turned away from him. He repeated, "My neighbors have mistreated me, what should I do?" The Prophet turned away from him again. Then he said, "My neighbors have mistreated me, what should I do?" Again, the Prophet turned away from him. So the man said, "If I were to say that, people would claim that Muhammad forbids wrongdoing but does it himself." The Prophet ﷺ asked, "What did he say?" Then, his brother or his nephew got up and said, "O Messenger of Allah, indeed he said that." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Even if I were to do that, it would be upon me, and it is not for you to take it upon yourselves to intercede for him with his neighbors."
Musnad Ahmad 20043Hasan

✧ I came to the Prophet ﷺ when I came to him and said: By God, I did not come to you until I had sworn more than the number of these—and Bahz clasped his hands together—that I would not come to you, nor to your religion. And I have come as a man who does not understand anything except what God [Blessed and Exalted] and His Messenger have taught me. And I ask you by the face of God: with what did God send you to us? He said: With Islam. I said: What are the signs of Islam? He said: That you say, 'I have submitted my face [to God] and turned away [from other gods],' and you establish prayer, and you give zakah. Every Muslim is inviolable to another Muslim; [they are] two brothers, [each] a helper. God does not accept from a polytheist who associates partners after he has submitted any deed, and you must separate from the polytheists to the Muslims. What is it with me holding onto your waistbands [to keep you] from the Fire? Indeed, my Lord [Mighty and Majestic] is calling me, and He will ask me: 'Have you conveyed to His servants?' And I will say: 'My Lord, I have conveyed to them.' So let the one present among you convey to the one absent. Then you will be called, with your mouths muzzled with the fidam. Then the first thing to be shown from one of you will be his thigh and his palm. I said: O Prophet of God, is this our religion? He said: This is your religion, and wherever you do good, it will suffice you.

✧ Indeed, two visitors came to me tonight, and they sent me, and they said to me: 'Go.' And I went with them, and we came upon a man lying down, and another standing over him with a rock, and he was dropping the rock on his head, smashing his head with it, and the stone rolled away here, and he followed the stone, took it, and did not return to him until his head healed as it was before, then he returned to him and did the same as the first time. He said: I said: 'Glory be to God! What are these two?' They said to me: 'Go on, go on.' So I went with them, and we came upon a man lying on his back, and another standing over him with an iron hook, and he came to one side of his face and tore his mouth to the back of his neck, and his nostrils to the back of his neck, and his eyes to the back of his neck. He said: Then he turned to the other side and did to it the same as he did to the first side, and he did not finish that side until the first healed as it was, then he returned and did the same as the first time. He said: I said: 'Glory be to God! What are these two?' They said to me: 'Go on, go on.' He said: So we went on and came upon something like the structure of a tannur (oven). Awf said: And I think he said: And in it there was clamor and voices. He said: I looked in, and there were men and women naked, and a flame came to them from below them, and when the flame came to them, they cried out. He said: I said: 'Who are these?' They said to me: 'Go on, go on.' He said: So we went on, and came upon a river—I think he said: red like blood—and in the river was a man swimming, then that man who had gathered stones came to him, opened his mouth for him, and fed him stone after stone. He said: He went off and swam as he swam, then returned to him; every time he returned, he opened his mouth and fed him a stone. He said: I said: 'What is this?' He said: They said to me: 'Go on, go on.' So we went on and came upon a man of ugly appearance, the ugliest man you have ever seen, and he was at a fire of his, stoking it and walking around it. He said: I said to them: 'What is this?' They said to me: 'Go on, go on.' He said: So we went on and came upon a lush meadow with all the blossoms of spring. He said: And in the middle of the meadow was a tall man standing, so tall I could hardly see his head in the sky, and around the man were the most numerous and most beautiful children I have ever seen. He said: I said to them: 'What is this, and who are these?' They said to me: 'Go on, go on.' He said: So we went on and reached a great tree, and I have never seen a tree greater or more beautiful than it. He said: They said to me: 'Climb it.' So we climbed it, and I reached a city built with bricks of gold and bricks of silver. We came to the gate of the city and asked for it to be opened, and it was opened for us, and we entered. Men met us in it: half of their appearance was the most beautiful you have ever seen, and half was the ugliest you have ever seen. He said: They said to them: 'Go and plunge into that river.' And there was a small river flowing across, as if it were pure milk in whiteness. He said: They went and plunged into it, then returned to us, and that ugliness had left them, and they became in the most beautiful form. He said: They said to me: 'This is the Garden of Eden, and that is your dwelling.' He said: My sight rose upward, and there was a palace like a white cloud. They said to me: 'That is your dwelling.' He said: I said to them: 'May God bless you both; let me enter it.' He said: They said to me: 'Not now, but you will enter it.' He said: Indeed, I have seen wonders tonight, so what is this that I have seen? He said: They said to me: 'Indeed, we will inform you. As for the first man you came upon whose head was being smashed with the stone, he is a man who takes the Quran and rejects it, and sleeps through the prescribed prayer. As for the man you came upon whose mouth was being torn to the back of his neck, and his eyes to the back of his neck, and his nostrils to the back of his neck, he is a man who goes out from his house and tells a lie that reaches the horizons. As for the naked men and women in the structure like a tannur, they are the adulterers and adulteresses. As for the man swimming in the river and being fed stones, he is the eater of usury. As for the ugly man at the fire stoking it, he is Malik, the keeper of Hell. As for the tall man you saw in the meadow, he is Ibrahim ﷺ. As for the children around him, they are every child who died on the fitrah.' He said: Some of the Muslims said: 'O Messenger of God, and the children of the polytheists?' The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'And the children of the polytheists.' As for the people half of whom were handsome and half ugly, they are a people who mixed a righteous deed with an evil one, and God pardoned them.

✧ I entered upon the Messenger of God ﷺ, and he called the cupper. He brought him horns and attached them to him—Affan said once: a horn—then he cut him with a blade. A bedouin from Banu Fazarah, one of Banu Jadhimah, entered. When he saw him being cupped, and he had no familiarity with cupping and did not know it, he said: 'What is this, O Messenger of God? Why do you let this one cut your skin?' He said: 'This is cupping (hajm).' He said: 'What is cupping?' He said: 'It is among the best things with which people treat themselves.'
Musnad Ahmad 20097Sahih

✧ Sam is the father of the Arabs, Ham is the father of the Abyssinians, and Japheth is the father of the Romans.

✧ I entered upon al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf and said: May Allah keep the commander righteous. Shall I not narrate to you a hadith that Samurah ibn Jundub narrated to me from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? He said: Yes. He said: I heard him say: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Asking is a scratch with which a man scratches his face. So whoever wishes may keep it on his face, and whoever wishes may leave it, except if a man asks a person of authority or asks about a matter that is unavoidable.
Musnad Ahmad 20107Sahih
أَحَبُّ الْكَلَامِ إِلَى اللهِ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] أَرْبَعٌ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلهِ، لَا يَضُرُّكَ بِأَيِّهِنَّ بَدَأْتَ، لَا تُسَمِّيَنَّ غُلَامَكَ يَسَارًا وَلَا رَبَاحًا وَلَا نَجِيحًا وَلَا أَفْلَحًا، فَإِنَّكَ تَقُولُ: أَثَمَّ هُوَ ؟ فَلَا يَكُونُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَا، إِنَّمَا هُنَّ أَرْبَعٌ لَا تَزِيدُنَّ عَلَيَّ
✧ The most beloved speech to Allah [Blessed and Exalted is He] is four: La ilaha illa Allah (There is no god but Allah), Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest), Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah), and Al-hamdu lillah (Praise be to Allah). It does not harm you with whichever of them you begin. Do not name your boy Yasar, Rabah, Najih, or Aflah, for you will say, 'Is he there?' and he will not be, and he will say, 'No.' They are only four, so do not add to them for me.
Musnad Ahmad 20108Sahih

هَلْ رَأَى أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمُ اللَّيْلَةَ رُؤْيَا، فَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ رَأَى تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ رُؤْيَا قَصَّهَا عَلَيْهِ، فَيَقُولُ فِيهَا مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ، فَسَأَلَنَا يَوْمًا فَقَالَ: هَلْ رَأَى أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمُ اللَّيْلَةَ رُؤْيَا ؟ قَالَ: فَقُلْنَا: لَا، قَالَ: لَكِنْ أَنَا رَأَيْتُ اللَّيْلَةَ رَجُلَيْنِ أَتَيَانِي، فَأَخَذَا بِيَدَيَّ فَأَخْرَجَانِي إِلَى أَرْضٍ فَضَاءٍ أَوْ أَرْضٍ مُسْتَوِيَةٍ، فَمَرَّا بِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ، وَرَجُلٌ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ بِيَدِهِ كَلُّوبٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ، فَيُدْخِلُهُ فِي شِدْقِهِ فَيَشُقُّهُ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ قَفَاهُ، ثُمَّ يُخْرِجُهُ فَيُدْخِلُهُ فِي شِقِّهِ الْآخَرِ، وَيَلْتَئِمُ هَذَا الشِّقُّ، فَهُوَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ بِهِ، قُلْتُ: مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَا: انْطَلِقْ. فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُمَا، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مُسْتَلْقٍ عَلَى قَفَاهُ وَرَجُلٌ قَائِمٌ بِيَدِهِ فِهْرٌ أَوْ صَخْرَةٌ فَيَشْدَخُ بِهَا رَأْسَهُ فَيَتَدَهْدَى الْحَجَرُ، فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ لِيَأْخُذَهُ عَادَ رَأْسُهُ كَمَا كَانَ، فَيَصْنَعُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، فَقُلْتُ: مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَا: انْطَلِقْ. فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُمَا، فَإِذَا بَيْتٌ مَبْنِيٌّ عَلَى بِنَاءِ التَّنُّورِ؛ أَعْلَاهُ ضَيِّقٌ، وَأَسْفَلُهُ وَاسِعٌ، يُوقَدُ تَحْتَهُ نَارٌ، فِيهِ رِجَالٌ وَنِسَاءٌ عُرَاةٌ، فَإِذَا أُوقِدَتِ ارْتَفَعُوا حَتَّى يَكَادُوا أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا، فَإِذَا خَمَدَتْ رَجَعُوا فِيهَا، فَقُلْتُ: مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَا لِي: انْطَلِقْ. فَانْطَلَقْتُ. فَإِذَا نَهَرٌ مِنْ دَمٍ فِيهِ رَجُلٌ وَعَلَى شَطِّ النَّهَرِ رَجُلٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ حِجَارَةٌ فَيُقْبِلُ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي فِي النَّهَرِ، فَإِذَا دَنَا لِيَخْرُجَ رَمَى فِي فِيهِ حَجَرًا، فَرَجَعَ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ، فَهُوَ يَفْعَلُ بِهِ ذَلِكَ، فَقُلْتُ: مَا هَذَا ؟ فَقَالَا: انْطَلِقْ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ، فَإِذَا رَوْضَةٌ خَضْرَاءُ، فَإِذَا فِيهَا شَجَرَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ، وَإِذَا شَيْخٌ فِي أَصْلِهَا حَوْلَهُ صِبْيَانٌ، وَإِذَا رَجُلٌ قَرِيبٌ مِنْهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ نَارٌ فَهُوَ يُحَشِّشُهَا وَيُوقِدُهَا، فَصَعِدَا بِي فِي الشَّجَرَةِ فَأَدْخَلَانِي دَارًا لَمْ أَرَ دَارًا قَطُّ أَحْسَنَ مِنْهَا، فَإِذَا فِيهَا رِجَالٌ شُيُوخٌ وَشَبَابٌ، وَفِيهَا نِسَاءٌ وَصِبْيَانٌ، فَأَخْرَجَانِي مِنْهَا فَصَعِدَا بِي فِي الشَّجَرَةِ، فَأَدْخَلَانِي دَارًا هِيَ أَحْسَنُ وَأَفْضَلُ، فِيهَا شُيُوخٌ وَشَبَابٌ. فَقُلْتُ لَهُمَا: إِنَّكُمَا قَدْ طَوَّفْتُمَانِي مُنْذُ اللَّيْلَةِ، فَأَخْبِرَانِي عَمَّا رَأَيْتُ ؟ قَالَا: نَعَمْ. أَمَّا الرَّجُلُ الْأَوَّلُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ فَإِنَّهُ رَجُلٌ كَذَّابٌ يَكْذِبُ الْكَذِبَةَ، فَتُحْمَلُ عَنْهُ فِي الْآفَاقِ، فَهُوَ يُصْنَعُ بِهِ مَا رَأَيْتَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ، ثُمَّ يَصْنَعُ اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] بِهِ مَا شَاءَ، وَأَمَّا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ مُسْتَلْقِيًا فَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] الْقُرْآنَ فَنَامَ عَنْهُ بِاللَّيْلِ، وَلَمْ يَعْمَلْ بِمَا فِيهِ بِالنَّهَارِ، فَهُوَ يُفْعَلُ بِهِ مَا رَأَيْتَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَأَمَّا الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ فِي التَّنُّورِ فَهُمُ الزُّنَاةُ، وَأَمَّا الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ فِي النَّهَرِ فَذَاكَ آكِلُ الرِّبَا، وَأَمَّا الشَّيْخُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ فِي أَصْلِ الشَّجَرَةِ فَذَاكَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ [عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ]، وَأَمَّا الصِّبْيَانُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ فَأَوْلَادُ النَّاسِ، وَأَمَّا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ يُوقِدُ النَّارَ وَيُحَشِّشُهَا، فَذَاكَ مَالِكٌ خَازِنُ النَّارِ وَتِلْكَ النَّارُ، وَأَمَّا الدَّارُ الَّتِي دَخَلْتَ أَوَّلًا فَدَارُ عَامَّةِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، وَأَمَّا الدَّارُ الْأُخْرَى فَدَارُ الشُّهَدَاءِ، وَأَنَا جِبْرِيلُ، وَهَذَا مِيكَائِيلُ، ثُمَّ قَالَا لِي: ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي، فَإِذَا كَهَيْئَةِ السَّحَابِ، فَقَالَا لِي: وَتِلْكَ دَارُكَ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُمَا: دَعَانِي أَدْخُلْ دَارِي، فَقَالَا: إِنَّهُ قَدْ بَقِيَ لَكَ عَمَلٌ لَمْ تَسْتَكْمِلْهُ، فَلَوِ اسْتَكْمَلْتَهُ دَخَلْتَ دَارَكَ. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: شدقه. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: الشدق. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: فيتدهدا. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: فقالا. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وما بين المعقوفين غير موجود في طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وما بين المعقوفين غير موجود في طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: فذلك. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وما بين المعقوفين غير موجود في طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة. كذا في طبعة جمعية المكنز الإسلامي، وفي طبعة مؤسسة الرسالة: الذين.
✧ Did any of you see a dream last night? If anyone saw a dream that night he related it to him, and he said about it what Allah willed him to say. One day he asked us, "Did any of you see a dream last night?" We said, "No." He said, "But I saw two men last night who came to me, took me by the hands, and led me out to an open land, or a level land. They passed by me to a man, and a man was standing at his head with an iron hook in his hand. He inserted it into his cheek and tore it until it reached the back of his neck, then removed it and inserted it into his other cheek, and this cheek healed. He kept doing that to him. I said, 'What is this?' They said, 'Move on.' So I moved on with them, and there was a man lying on his back, and a man standing with a rock or a boulder in his hand, smashing his head with it. The stone rolled away, and when he went to retrieve it, his head returned to as it was, and he did the same again. I said, 'What is this?' They said, 'Move on.' So I moved on with them, and there was a house built like a tannur oven; its top was narrow and its bottom wide, with a fire kindled beneath it. In it were naked men and women. When it was kindled, they rose up until they almost came out, and when it subsided, they went back in. I said, 'What is this?' They said to me, 'Move on.' So I moved on. Then there was a river of blood, with a man in it, and on the bank of the river was a man with stones in front of him. The man in the river came forward, and when he drew near to come out, the other threw a stone into his mouth, so he returned to his place. He kept doing that to him. I said, 'What is this?' They said, 'Move on.' So I moved on, and there was a green meadow, and in it was a great tree, and at its base was an old man, with children around him. And near him was a man with a fire in front of him, feeding it with fuel and kindling it. They ascended with me into the tree and brought me into a house the like of which I had never seen more beautiful. In it were old men and young men, and women and children. They brought me out of it and ascended with me into the tree, and brought me into a house that was more beautiful and excellent, with old men and young men. I said to them, 'You have taken me around since tonight. Tell me about what I have seen.' They said, 'Yes. As for the first man you saw, he is a liar who tells a lie, and it is carried from him to the horizons. So what you saw will be done to him until the Day of Resurrection, then Allah [Blessed and Exalted] will do with him what He wills. As for the man you saw lying on his back, he is a man to whom Allah [Blessed and Exalted] gave the Qur'an, but he slept through it at night and did not act upon it during the day. So what you saw will be done to him until the Day of Resurrection. As for those you saw in the tannur, they are the adulterers. As for the one you saw in the river, that is the consumer of riba. As for the old man you saw at the base of the tree, that is Ibrahim ﷺ. As for the children you saw, they are the children of people. As for the man you saw kindling the fire and feeding it with fuel, that is Malik, the keeper of Hellfire, and that is the Fire. As for the house you entered first, it is the abode of the common believers. As for the other house, it is the abode of the martyrs. And I am Jibril, and this is Mika'il.' Then they said to me, 'Raise your head.' I raised my head, and there was something like a cloud. They said to me, 'That is your house.' I said to them, 'Let me enter my house.' They said, 'You still have a deed remaining that you have not completed. If you complete it, you will enter your house.'"

Musnad Ahmad 20166Sahih
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَتْ لَهُ سَكْتَتَانِ؛ سَكْتَةٌ حِينَ يَفْتَتِحُ الصَّلَاةَ، وَسَكْتَةٌ إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ السُّورَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ، فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِعِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ فَقَالَ: كَذَبَ سَمُرَةُ، فَكَتَبَ فِي ذَلِكَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، فَقَالَ: صَدَقَ سَمُرَةُ
✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had two pauses: a pause when he began the prayer, and a pause when he finished the second surah before bowing. That was mentioned to 'Imran b. Husayn, who said, "Samurah lied." So he wrote about that to Madinah to Ubayy b. Ka'b, who said, "Samurah spoke the truth."

كُنْتُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَدَعَا حَجَّامًا، فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَحْجُمَهُ، فَأَخْرَجَ مَحَاجِمًا لَهُ مِنْ قُرُونٍ، فَأَلْزَمَهُ إِيَّاهُ فَشَرَطَهُ بِطَرَفِ شَفْرَةٍ، فَصَبَّ الدَّمَ فِي إِنَاءٍ عِنْدَهُ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي فَزَارَةَ فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ عَلَامَ تُمَكِّنُ هَذَا مِنْ جِلْدِكَ يَقْطَعُهُ ؟ قَالَ: فَسَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ: هَذَا الْحَجْمُ، قَالَ: وَمَا الْحَجْمُ ؟ قَالَ: هُوَ مِنْ خَيْرِ مَا تَدَاوَى بِهِ النَّاسُ
✧ I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he called a cupper and ordered him to cup him. He brought out cupping instruments for him made of horns, applied them to him, and made an incision with the tip of a blade. He poured the blood into a vessel that was with him. A man from Banu Fazarah entered upon him and said, "What is this, O Messenger of Allah? Why do you let this man cut your skin?" He said: I heard the Prophet ﷺ say, "This is cupping." He said, "And what is cupping?" He said, "It is among the best things with which people treat themselves."

✧ O people, I adjure you by Allah: if you know that I have fallen short in conveying any of the messages of my Lord [Mighty and Majestic], then tell me, for I have conveyed the messages of my Lord as they ought to be conveyed. And if you know that I have conveyed the messages of my Lord, then tell me. He said: Then men stood up and said: We bear witness that you have conveyed the messages of your Lord, and you have been sincere to your community, and you have fulfilled what was upon you. Then they fell silent. Then he said: Now then, there are men who claim that the eclipse of this sun and the eclipse of this moon and the disappearance of these stars from their rising-places are due to the death of great men among the people of the earth. Indeed they have lied. Rather, they are signs among the signs of Allah [Blessed and Exalted] by which He admonishes His servants, so that He may see who among them turns to Him in repentance. By Allah, since I stood up to pray I have seen what you will meet in the affairs of your world and your hereafter. And indeed, by Allah, the Hour will not come until thirty liars appear, the last of them being the one-eyed Dajjāl, whose left eye is effaced, as if it were the eye of Abū Taḥyā—he said this of a shaykh then present among the Anṣār, between him and the room of ʿĀʾishah. And when he emerges—or he said: whenever he emerges—he will claim that he is Allah. So whoever believes in him, affirms him, and follows him, no righteous deed he did before will benefit him. And whoever disbelieves in him and denies him will not be punished for any of his deeds. And Ḥasan al-Ashyab said: for any evil of his deeds that went before. And he will appear—or he said: he will soon appear—over the whole earth except the Sacred Precinct and Jerusalem. And he will besiege the believers in Jerusalem, and they will be shaken with a severe shaking. Then Allah [Blessed and Exalted] will destroy him and his armies, until even the stump of a wall—or he said: the base of a wall, and Ḥasan al-Ashyab said: and the root of a tree—will call out, or he said: will say: O believer, or he said: O Muslim, this is a Jew, or he said: this is an unbeliever—come and kill him. He said: And that will not be so until you see matters whose seriousness grows great in your own souls, and you ask one another: Did your Prophet ever mention any of them to you? And until mountains move from their places. Then after that comes the seizing (of souls). He said: Then I witnessed a sermon by Samurah in which he mentioned this ḥadīth, and he did not put a word forward or backward from its place.
