✧ When this verse was revealed: “Whether you disclose what is in yourselves or conceal it, God will call you to account for it” (Qur'an 2:284), something entered their hearts that had never entered them from anything. He said: The Prophet ﷺ said: “Say: We hear and obey and we submit,” so God cast faith into their hearts, and God (mighty and majestic) revealed: “The Messenger believes in what was sent down to him from his Lord, and the believers. Each one believes in God, His angels, His books, and His messengers. We make no distinction between any of His messengers, and they say: We hear and obey; Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return. God does not burden a soul beyond its capacity. For it is what it has earned, and against it is what it has incurred. Our Lord, do not take us to task if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord, do not lay on us a burden as You laid on those before us. Our Lord, do not impose on us what we have no strength to bear. Pardon us, forgive us, and have mercy on us. You are our Protector, so help us against the disbelieving people” (Qur'an 2:285-286).

✧ When the Messenger of God ﷺ sent Muʿādh b. Jabal to Yemen, he said: “You will come to a people of the Book, so call them to testify that there is no god but God and that I am the Messenger of God. If they obey you in that, inform them that God (mighty and majestic) has made obligatory on them five prayers in every day and night. If they obey you in that, inform them that God has made obligatory on them a charity from their wealth, taken from their rich and returned to their poor. If they obey you in that, beware of taking the best of their wealth, and fear the supplication of the wronged, for there is no barrier between it and God (mighty and majestic).”

He replied, "My people speak the truth, while they lie. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ indeed threw pebbles, but it is not a Sunnah.

They sent for her, and she came. The Messenger of God ﷺ recited to them both, reminded them, and informed them that the punishment of the Hereafter is more severe than the punishment of this world. Hilal said: "By God, O Messenger of God, I have spoken the truth about her!" She said: "He lies." The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "Perform li'an between them." It was said to Hilal: "Testify!" So he testified four times by God that he was indeed of the truthful. When it came to the fifth, it was said: "O Hilal, fear God; for the punishment of this world is lighter than the punishment of the Hereafter, and this is the affirmation that makes punishment incumbent upon you!" He said: "By God, God will not punish me for it, just as He has not flogged me for it!" So he testified the fifth time that the curse of God be upon him if he was of the liars. Then it was said to her: "Testify four times by God that he is indeed of the liars." When it came to the fifth, it was said to her: "Fear God; for the punishment of this world is lighter than the punishment of the Hereafter, and this is the affirmation that makes punishment incumbent upon you!" She hesitated for a moment, then said: "By God, I will not disgrace my people!" So she testified the fifth time that the wrath of God be upon her if he was of the truthful. The Messenger of God ﷺ separated them, and decreed that her child would not be attributed to any father, nor would she be accused of it, nor would her child be accused. Whoever accused her or accused her child would receive the hadd punishment. He decreed that she had no lodging or provision from him, because they separated without divorce or being widowed. He said: "If she gives birth to a child with reddish hair, thin thighs, and lean legs, then it is Hilal's. If she gives birth to a child with dark complexion, curly hair, plump limbs, sturdy legs, and full buttocks, then it belongs to the one she was accused with." She gave birth to a child with dark complexion, curly hair, plump limbs, sturdy legs, and full buttocks. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "Were it not for the oaths, I would have had a matter with her!"

إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْزَلَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْكُمْ بِمَا أَنْـزَلَ اللهُ فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ و أُولَئِكَ هُمُ الظَّالِمُونَ و أُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ. قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: أَنْزَلَهَا اللهُ فِي الطَّائِفَتَيْنِ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ، وَكَانَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا قَدْ قَهَرَتِ الْأُخْرَى فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ حَتَّى ارْتَضَوْا وَاصْطَلَحُوا عَلَى أَنَّ كُلَّ قَتِيلٍ قَتَلَتْهُ الْعَزِيزَةُ مِنَ الذَّلِيلَةِ فَدِيَتُهُ خَمْسُونَ وَسْقًا، وَكُلَّ قَتِيلٍ قَتَلَتْهُ الذَّلِيلَةُ مِنَ الْعَزِيزَةِ فَدِيَتُهُ مِائَةُ وَسْقٍ. فَكَانُوا عَلَى ذَلِكَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَذَلَّتِ الطَّائِفَتَانِ كِلْتَاهُمَا لِمَقْدَمِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَمْ يَظْهَرْ، وَلَمْ يُوطِئْهُمَا عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ فِي الصُّلْحِ. فَقَتَلَتِ الذَّلِيلَةُ مِنَ الْعَزِيزَةِ قَتِيلًا، فَأَرْسَلَتِ الْعَزِيزَةُ إِلَى الذَّلِيلَةِ: أَنِ ابْعَثُوا إِلَيْنَا بِمِائَةِ وَسْقٍ. فَقَالَتِ الذَّلِيلَةُ: وَهَلْ كَانَ هَذَا فِي حَيَّيْنِ قَطُّ دِينُهُمَا وَاحِدٌ، وَنَسَبُهُمَا وَاحِدٌ، وَبَلَدُهُمَا وَاحِدٌ، دِيَةُ بَعْضِهِمْ نِصْفُ دِيَةِ بَعْضٍ ؟ إِنَّا إِنَّمَا أَعْطَيْنَاكُمْ هَذَا ضَيْمًا مِنْكُمْ لَنَا وَفَرَقًا مِنْكُمْ، فَأَمَّا إِذْ قَدِمَ مُحَمَّدٌ فَلَا نُعْطِيكُمْ ذَلِكَ ! فَكَادَتِ الْحَرْبُ تَهِيجُ بَيْنَهُمَا، ثُمَّ ارْتَضَوْا عَلَى أَنْ يَجْعَلُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَهُمْ. ثُمَّ ذَكَرَتِ الْعَزِيزَةُ، فَقَالَتْ: وَاللهِ مَا مُحَمَّدٌ بِمُعْطِيكُمْ مِنْهُمْ ضِعْفَ مَا يُعْطِيهِمْ مِنْكُمْ، وَلَقَدْ صَدَقُوا؛ مَا أَعْطَوْنَا هَذَا إِلَّا ضَيْمًا مِنَّا، وَقَهْرًا لَهُمْ ! فَدُسُّوا إِلَى مُحَمَّدٍ مَنْ يَخْبُرُ لَكُمْ رَأْيَهُ؛ إِنْ أَعْطَاكُمْ مَا تُرِيدُونَ حَكَّمْتُمُوهُ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يُعْطِكُمْ حَذِرْتُمْ فَلَمْ تُحَكِّمُوهُ. فَدَسُّوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نَاسًا مِنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ لِيَخْبُرُوا لَهُمْ رَأْيَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَلَمَّا جَاءَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَخْبَرَ اللهُ رَسُولَهُ بِأَمْرِهِمْ كُلِّهِ وَمَا أَرَادُوا، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَا أَيُّهَا الرَّسُولُ لا يَحْزُنْكَ الَّذِينَ يُسَارِعُونَ فِي الْكُفْرِ مِنَ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا آمَنَّا إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: وَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْكُمْ بِمَا أَنْـزَلَ اللهُ فَأُولَئِكَ هُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ. ثُمَّ قَالَ: فِيهِمَا وَاللهِ نَزَلَتْ، وَإِيَّاهُمَا عَنَى اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ
✧ Indeed, God, Mighty and Majestic, revealed: 'And whoever does not judge by what God has revealed, those are the disbelievers,' 'those are the wrongdoers,' 'those are the transgressors.' Ibn Abbas said: God revealed it concerning the two parties of the Jews, one of which had overcome the other in pre-Islamic times until they agreed and settled upon that every person killed by the powerful party from the weak party, his blood money was fifty wasqs, and every person killed by the weak party from the powerful party, his blood money was one hundred wasqs. They continued upon that until the Prophet ﷺ arrived in Madinah, and both parties became humble due to the arrival of the Messenger of God ﷺ, while the Messenger of God ﷺ at that time had not yet prevailed over them and had not subjugated them, for he was in a truce. Then the weak party killed someone from the powerful party, so the powerful party sent to the weak party: "Send us one hundred wasqs." The weak party said: "Has this ever happened between two tribes whose religion is one, whose lineage is one, and whose land is one, that the blood money of some of them is half the blood money of others? We only gave you this because of your oppression of us and our fear of you. But now that Muhammad has arrived, we will not give you that!" War almost broke out between them, then they agreed to make the Messenger of God ﷺ judge between them. Then the powerful party considered and said: "By God, Muhammad will not give you from them double what he gives them from you. They spoke truthfully; we only gave them this out of oppression and domination over them!" So they secretly sent to Muhammad someone to find out his opinion for them: "If he gives you what you want, you will make him judge; but if he does not give you, be wary and do not make him judge." They secretly sent to the Messenger of God ﷺ some people from the hypocrites to find out for them the opinion of the Messenger of God ﷺ. When they came to the Messenger of God ﷺ, God informed His Messenger of their entire affair and what they intended, so God, Mighty and Majestic, revealed: 'O Messenger, let not those who hasten into disbelief grieve you, from those who say "We believe"...' up to His saying: 'And whoever does not judge by what God has revealed, those are the transgressors.' Then he said: "By God, it was revealed concerning the two of them, and by them God, Mighty and Majestic, meant these two parties."

He wrote to him: You asked me about the share of the near relatives which Allah, Mighty and Majestic, mentioned—who are they? We used to think that the relatives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were those meant, but our people refused that to us. He asked him about the orphan: when does his orphanhood end? When he reaches marriageable age and sound judgment is observed in him, his property is handed over to him, and his orphanhood has ended. He asked him: Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ever kill any of the children of the polytheists? He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not kill any of them, and you should not kill any, unless you know what al-Khaḍir knew about the boy he killed. He asked him about the woman and the slave: did they have a fixed share when they attended battle? There was no fixed share for them, except that they might be given something from the Muslims' spoils.

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الدَّيْنِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ أَوَّلَ مَنْ جَحَدَ آدَمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - أَوْ أَوَّلُ مَنْ جَحَدَ آدَمُ - إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَمَّا خَلَقَ آدَمَ مَسَحَ ظَهْرَهُ، فَأَخْرَجَ مِنْهُ مَا هُوَ [مِنْ ذَرَارِيَّ] إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ، فَجَعَلَ يَعْرِضُ ذُرِّيَّتَهُ عَلَيْهِ، فَرَأَى فِيهِمْ رَجُلًا يَزْهَرُ، فَقَالَ: أَيْ رَبِّ، مَنْ هَذَا ؟ قَالَ: هَذَا ابْنُكَ دَاوُدُ. قَالَ: أَيْ رَبِّ، كَمْ عُمُرُهُ ؟ قَالَ: سِتُّونَ عَامًا. قَالَ: رَبِّ، زِدْ فِي عُمُرِهِ ! قَالَ: لَا، إِلَّا أَنْ أَزِيدَهُ مِنْ عُمُرِكَ. وَكَانَ عُمُرُ آدَمَ أَلْفَ عَامٍ، فَزَادَهُ أَرْبَعِينَ عَامًا، فَكَتَبَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْهِ بِذَلِكَ كِتَابًا، وَأَشْهَدَ عَلَيْهِ الْمَلَائِكَةَ. فَلَمَّا احْتُضِرَ آدَمُ، وَأَتَتْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ لِتَقْبِضَهُ - قَالَ: إِنَّهُ قَدْ بَقِيَ مِنْ عُمُرِي أَرْبَعُونَ عَامًا ! فَقِيلَ: إِنَّكَ قَدْ وَهَبْتَهَا لِابْنِكَ دَاوُدَ ! قَالَ: مَا فَعَلْتُ ! وَأَبْرَزَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْهِ الْكِتَابَ، وَشَهِدَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ
✧ When the verse of debt was revealed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘The first to deny was Adam ﷺ — or the first to deny was Adam — Indeed, when Allah, Mighty and Majestic, created Adam, He wiped his back and brought forth from it what is [of the descendants] until the Day of Resurrection, and He presented his offspring to him. He saw among them a man shining. He said: “My Lord, who is this?” He said: “This is your son Dawud.” He said: “My Lord, how long is his lifespan?” He said: “Sixty years.” He said: “My Lord, increase his lifespan!” He said: “No, except if I increase it from your lifespan.” Adam’s lifespan was one thousand years, so He increased it by forty years. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, wrote that for him in a book, and made the angels witnesses. When Adam was dying and the angels came to take his soul, he said: “There remain of my lifespan forty years!” It was said: “You have given them to your son Dawud!” He said: “I did not do that!” Allah, Mighty and Majestic, brought out the book and the angels testified against him.’

مَا قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْجِنِّ وَلَا رَآهُمْ. انْطَلَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي طَائِفَةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ عَامِدِينَ إِلَى سُوقِ عُكَاظٍ، وَقَدْ حِيلَ بَيْنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَبَيْنَ خَبَرِ السَّمَاءِ، وَأُرْسِلَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الشُّهُبُ. قَالَ: فَرَجَعَتِ الشَّيَاطِينُ إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ، فَقَالُوا: مَا لَكُمْ ؟ قَالُوا: حِيلَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ خَبَرِ السَّمَاءِ، وَأُرْسِلَتْ عَلَيْنَا الشُّهُبُ. قَالَ: فَقَالُوا: مَا حَالَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ خَبَرِ السَّمَاءِ إِلَّا شَيْءٌ حَدَثَ، فَاضْرِبُوا مَشَارِقَ الْأَرْضِ وَمَغَارِبَهَا، فَانْظُرُوا مَا هَذَا الَّذِي حَالَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ خَبَرِ السَّمَاءِ ! قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقُوا يَضْرِبُونَ مَشَارِقَ الْأَرْضِ وَمَغَارِبَهَا يَبْتَغُونَ مَا هَذَا الَّذِي حَالَ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ خَبَرِ السَّمَاءِ ؟ قَالَ: فَانْصَرَفَ النَّفَرُ الَّذِينَ تَوَجَّهُوا نَحْوَ تِهَامَةَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ بِنَخْلَةَ عَامِدًا إِلَى سُوقِ عُكَاظٍ، وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي بِأَصْحَابِهِ صَلَاةَ الْفَجْرِ. قَالَ: فَلَمَّا سَمِعُوا الْقُرْآنَ اسْتَمَعُوا لَهُ، وَقَالُوا: هَذَا وَاللهِ الَّذِي حَالَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ خَبَرِ السَّمَاءِ ! قَالَ: فَهُنَالِكَ حِينَ رَجَعُوا إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ، فَقَالُوا: يَا قَوْمَنَا، إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْآنًا عَجَبًا يَهْدِي إِلَى الرُّشْدِ فَآمَنَّا بِهِ الْآيَةَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَلَى نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ قُلْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ أَنَّهُ وَإِنَّمَا أُوحِيَ إِلَيْهِ قَوْلُ الْجِنِّ
the Messenger of Allah did not recite for the jinns nor did he see them. The Messenger of Allah went out with a group of his Companions towards the Ukaz market. Something had been intervening between the Shayatin and the news from the heavens, and shooting stars has been sent upon them, so the Shayatin returned to their people and they said to them: ‘What is wrong with you?’ They replied: ‘Something has been intervening between us and the news of the heavens except that something has happened. So travel east and west in the earth and look for what is it that intervenes between you an between the news of the heavens.’” He said: “So they went traveling east and west on the earth, seeking whatever it was that had been intervening between them and the news of the heavens. A group of those who were traveling towards Tihamah headed in the direction of the Messenger of Allah, while he was at Nakhlah, enroute to the Ukaz market. He was performing Salat Al-Fajr with his Companions. When they heard the Quran they listened to it, and they said: ‘By Allah! This is what has been intervening between us and the news of the heavens.’” He said: “Then they returned to their people and said: ‘O our people! Verily we heard a wonderful Recitation! It guides to the Right Path, and we have believed therein, and we shall never join anything with our Lord.’ So Allah, Blessed is He and Most High, revealed to His Prophet: Say: ‘It has been revealed to me that a group of the jinn listened.’ So the saying of the jinns was only revealed to him.” [He said:] With this chain, from Ibn 'Abbas, who said: "The jinns said to their people: When the worshipper stood up invoking Him in prayer, they just made round him a dense crowd as if sticking one over the other." He said: "When they saw him performing Salat, and his Companions were performing Salãt, and they were prostrating along with his prostrations." He said: "They were amazed at how his Companions obeyed him so they said to their people: When the worshipper stood up invoking Him in prayer, they just made round Him a dense crowd as if sticking one over the other." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3323)

✧ They used to consider performing ʿumrah during the months of the Hajj to be one of the most wicked acts on earth. They would treat Muḥarram as Ṣafar and say: When the sores on the camels' backs heal, and the tracks are effaced, and Ṣafar comes to an end, then ʿumrah becomes permissible for one who intends it. [When] the Prophet ﷺ and his companions arrived on the morning of the fourth day, announcing the intention for Hajj, he commanded them to make it an ʿumrah. That seemed grave to them, so they said: O Messenger of God, what kind of release from the state of consecration? He replied: Complete release. And in his book: for a morning.

Its fresh herbage shall not be cut, its trees shall not be cut down, its game shall not be disturbed, and its lost property shall not be picked up except by one who announces it.

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ stood among us delivering an admonition and said: O people, you will be gathered to God barefoot, naked, and uncircumcised.

And some people from my community will be brought and taken to the left side, and I will say: My companions! It will be said to me: You do not know what they introduced after you. Then I will say as the righteous servant said: And I was a witness over them as long as I was among them; but when You took me up, You were the observer over them, and You are, over all things, Witness.

He said: "This is Bilal, the muezzin." So the Prophet of Allah ﷺ said when he came to the people: "Bilal has succeeded; I saw for him such and such." He said: Then Musa met him and welcomed him, saying: "Welcome to the unlettered Prophet." He said: He was a dark, tall man with straight hair reaching his ears or above them. He said: "Who is this, O Jibril?" He said: "This is Musa ﷺ." He said: Then he went on, and 'Isa met him and welcomed him, and he said: "Who is this, O Jibril?" He said: "This is 'Isa." He said: Then he went on, and a venerable, awe-inspiring old man met him and welcomed him and greeted him—and all of them greeted him. He said: "Who is this, O Jibril?" He said: "This is your father Ibrahim." He said: Then he looked into the Fire, and there was a group eating carrion. He said: "Who are these, O Jibril?" He said: "These are those who eat the flesh of people." And he saw a red, blue-eyed man with curly, disheveled hair, when you see him—he said: "Who is this, O Jibril?" He said: "This is the one who hamstrung the she-camel." He said: When the Prophet ﷺ entered the farthest mosque, he stood to pray, then turned and found all the prophets praying with him.
