✧ Some men among the companions of the Prophet ﷺ, when the Messenger of God ﷺ died, grieved over him so intensely that some of them became afflicted with whispering (waswasa). 'Uthman said: 'I was among them. While I was sitting in one of the forts, 'Umar b. al-Khattab ؓ passed by me and greeted me, but I did not notice him.

I passed by 'Uthman and greeted him, but he did not return my greeting.' So Abu Bakr and 'Umar came together until they arrived and both greeted me. Abu Bakr said: 'Your brother 'Umar came to me and claimed that he passed by you and greeted you, but you did not return the greeting.' 'Uthman said: 'I said: By God, I did not notice you when you passed or greeted.' Abu Bakr said: ''Uthman has spoken the truth; some matter must have preoccupied you from that.' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'What is it?' I said: 'The Messenger of God ﷺ was taken before I could ask him about the salvation of this matter.' Abu Bakr, may God have mercy on him, said: 'I asked the Messenger of God ﷺ about that.' 'Uthman said: 'I said: May my father and mother be your ransom.'

✧ That Abu Bakr, may Allah have mercy on him, when he was appointed caliph, sent him to Bahrain and wrote for him this document: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This is the obligatory charity that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ imposed on the Muslims, which Allah commanded His Messenger. Whoever among the believers is asked for it in its proper manner, let him give it. Whoever is asked above it, let him not give it. For twenty-four camels or less: for every five, a sheep. When they reach twenty-five up to thirty-five, there is a yearling female camel (bint makhad). If there is no yearling female camel, then a two-year-old male camel (ibn labun). When they reach thirty-six up to forty-five, there is a two-year-old female camel (bint labun). When they reach forty-six up to sixty, there is a three-year-old female camel (hiqqah) up to sixty. When they reach sixty-one, there is a four-year-old female camel (jadha'ah) up to seventy-five. When they reach seventy-six, there are two two-year-old female camels (bint labun) up to ninety. When they reach ninety-one up to one hundred and twenty, there are two three-year-old female camels (hiqqah), able to be mounted by a male camel. When they exceed one hundred and twenty, in every forty there is a two-year-old female camel, and in every fifty there is a three-year-old female camel. If someone's charity reaches a jadha'ah and he does not have a jadha'ah, but he has a hiqqah, it is accepted from him and he gives along with it two sheep if it is easy for him, or twenty dirhams. If someone's charity reaches a hiqqah and he does not have a hiqqah, but he has a jadha'ah, it is accepted from him as a jadha'ah, and the collector gives him twenty dirhams or two sheep. If someone's charity reaches a hiqqah and he has nothing but a bint labun, it is accepted from him, and he gives the collector two sheep or twenty dirhams. If someone's charity reaches a bint labun and he has a hiqqah, the hiqqah is accepted from him, and the collector gives him two sheep or twenty dirhams. He said: There is no charity on grazing sheep until they reach forty, nor on their increase until they reach one hundred and twenty. When they increase by one over one hundred and twenty, there are two sheep up to two hundred. When they exceed two hundred, there are three sheep up to three hundred. When they exceed three hundred, in every hundred sheep there is one sheep.

✧ Do not grieve; indeed Allah is with us. Until when he drew near to us, and between us and him was the distance of two or three spears, I said, "This is the pursuer who has caught up with us, O Messenger of Allah." He said: And I wept, so he said, "Why do you weep?" I said, "By Allah, I do not weep for myself, but I weep for you." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ supplicated against him: "Suffice us against him." Then his horse sank into the ground up to its belly, and he leapt from it to the ground and called out, "O Muhammad, I think this is from you or your doing, so supplicate to Allah to save me from what I am in. By Allah, I will blind those behind me of the pursuers, and take an arrow from me, for you will pass by camels of mine at such-and-such a place, so take from them whatever you wish." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "We have no need of them." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ supplicated for him, and he departed and returned to his companions. And I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until we reached Madinah, and the people met him on the roads: women and servants in the roads saying, "Allah is greatest! Muhammad has come, the Messenger of Allah has come." And the people disputed as to which of them he would stay with, so the Prophet of Allah ﷺ said, "We will stay tonight with Banu al-Najjar, the maternal uncles of 'Abd al-Muttalib, to honor them by that." Then morning came and he went where he was commanded. Al-Bara' said: And the first to come to us was 'Umar b. al-Khattab ؓ with twenty riders, so we said, "What has the Messenger of Allah ﷺ done?" He said, "He is on my track." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not come until I had recited some surahs from the Mufassal.

عُرِضَ عَلَيَّ مَا هُوَ كَائِنٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ أَمْرِ الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ، فَجُمِعَ الْأَوَّلُونَ وَالْآخِرُونَ فِي صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ، فَفَظِعَ النَّاسُ لِذَلِكَ حَتَّى انْطَلَقُوا إِلَى آدَمَ ﷺ وَالْعَرَقُ يَكَادُ يُلْجِمُهُمْ، قَالُوا يَا آدَمُ، أَنْتَ أَبُو الْبَشَرِ، وَأَنْتَ اصْطَفَاكَ اللهُ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ، قَالَ: قَدْ لَقِيتُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي لَقِيتُمُ انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى أَبِيكُمُ انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى نُوحٍ إِنَّ اللهَ اصْطَفَى آدَمَ وَنُوحًا وَآلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَآلَ عِمْرَانَ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ قَالَ: فَيَنْطَلِقُونَ إِلَى نُوحٍ فَيَقُولُونَ: اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ فَإِنَّكَ قَدِ اصْطَفَاكَ اللهُ وَاسْتَجَابَ لَكَ فِي دُعَائِكَ وَلَمْ يَدَعْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ دَيَّارًا، فَيَقُولُ: لَيْسَ ذَاكُمْ عِنْدِي، انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ، فَيَنْطَلِقُونَ إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَيَقُولُ: لَيْسَ ذَاكُمْ عِنْدِي، انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى مُوسَى فَإِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى كَلَّمَهُ تَكْلِيمًا، فَيَقُولُ مُوسَى: لَيْسَ ذَاكُمْ عِنْدِي، انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى عِيسَى، فَإِنَّهُ يُبْرِئُ الْأَكْمَهَ وَالْأَبْرَصَ وَيُحِيى الْمَوْتَى بِإِذْنِ اللهِ، فَيَقُولُ عِيسَى: لَيْسَ ذَاكُمْ عِنْدِي، وَلَكِنِ انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى سَيِّدِ وَلَدِ آدَمَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ فَإِنَّهُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ تَنْشَقُّ عَنْهُ الْأَرْضُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، انْطَلِقُوا إِلَى مُحَمَّدٍ فَلْيَشْفَعْ لَكُمْ إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ فَيَأْتِي جِبْرِيلُ ﷺ رَبَّهُ فَيَقُولُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: ائْذَنْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ، أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: فَيَأْتِي بِهِ جِبْرِيلُ قَالَ: فَيَخِرُّ سَاجِدًا قَدْرَ جُمُعَةٍ قَالَ: فَيَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَقُلْ تُسْمَعْ وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ قَالَ: فَيَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ، فَإِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَى رَبِّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى خَرَّ سَاجِدًا قَدْرَ جُمُعَةٍ أُخْرَى فَيَقُولُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ وَسَلْ تُعْطَ، فَيَذْهَبُ فَيَقَعُ سَاجِدًا فَيَأْخُذُ جِبْرِيلُ بِضَبْعَيْهِ فَيَفْتَحُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ مَا لَمْ يَفْتَحْهُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ قَطُّ، فَيَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ جَعَلْتَنِي سَيِّدَ وَلَدِ آدَمَ وَأَوَّلَ مَنْ تَنْشَقُّ عَنْهُ الْأَرْضُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَلَا فَخْرَ وَذَكَرَ الْحَوْضَ فَقَالَ: عَرْضُهُ أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: مَا بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَأَيْلَةَ، ثُمَّ يُقَالُ ادْعُوا الصِّدِّيقِينَ، قَالَ: فَيَشْفَعُونَ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ يُقَالُ ادْعُوا الْأَنْبِيَاءَ، قَالَ: فَيَجِيءُ النَّبِيُّ وَمَعَهُ الْعِصَابَةُ وَالنَّبِيُّ مَعَهُ الْخَمْسَةُ وَالسِّتَّةُ وَالنَّبِيُّ وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُ أَحَدٌ، ثُمَّ يُقَالُ: ادْعُوا الشُّهَدَاءَ، قَالَ: فَيَشْفَعُونَ لِمَنْ أَرَادَ فَإِذَا فَعَلَتِ الشُّهَدَاءُ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: يَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: أَنَا أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ أَدْخِلُوا يَعْنِي: الْجَنَّةَ مَنْ كَانَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا قَالَ: فَيَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ، وَيَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: انْظُرُوا مَنْ فِي النَّارِ هَلْ بَقِيَ مِنْ أَحَدٍ عَمِلَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: لَا أَحْسَبُهُ، قَالَ: فَيُؤْتَى بِرَجُلٍ، فَيَقُولُ: هَلْ عَمِلْتَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ ؟ فَيَقُولُ: لَا، غَيْرَ أَنِّي كُنْتُ أُسَامِحُ النَّاسَ فِي الْبَيْعِ، فَيَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: اسْمَحُوا لِعَبْدِي كَإِسْمَاحِهِ إِلَى عَبِيدِي ثُمَّ يُخْرِجُونَ مِنَ النَّارِ رَجُلًا آخَرَ، فَيَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: هَلْ عَمِلْتَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ ؟ فَيَقُولُ: لَا غَيْرَ أَنِّي قَدْ أَمَرْتُ وَلَدِي إِذَا أَنَا مُتُّ فَأَحْرِقُونِي بِالنَّارِ، ثُمَّ اطْحَنُونِي حَتَّى إِذَا كُنْتُ مِثْلَ الْكُحْلِ اذْهَبُوا بِي إِلَى الْبَحْرِ فَاذْرُونِي فِي الرِّيحِ، قَالَ: يَقُولُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: لِمَ فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ: مِنْ مَخَافَتِكَ، قَالَ: يَقُولُ: انْظُرْ إِلَى مُلْكِ أَعْظَمِ مَلِكٍ كَانَ لَكَ مِثْلُهُ أَوْ فَإِنَّ لَكَ مِثْلَهُ قَالَ: فَذَاكَ الَّذِي ضَحِكْتُ مِنْهُ مِنَ الضُّحَى. وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ حَدِيثٌ فِيهِ رَجُلَانِ لَا نَعْلَمُهُمَا رَوَيَا إِلَّا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ: أَبُو هُنَيْدَةَ الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ نَوْفَلٍ، فَإِنَّا لَا نَعْلَمُ رَوَى حَدِيثًا غَيْرَ هَذَا، وَكَذَلِكَ وَالْآنُ لَا نَعْلَمُ رَوَى إِلَّا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَلَى أَنَّ هَذَا الْإِسْنَادَ مَعَ مَا فِيهِ مِنَ الْإِسْنَادِ الَّذِي ذَكَرْنَا فَقَدْ رَوَاهُ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنْ جِلَّةِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ بِالنَّقْلِ وَاحْتَمَلُوهُ.
✧ It was shown to me what will happen until the Day of Resurrection, of the affairs of this world and the Hereafter. The first and the last were gathered on one plain, and the people were terrified by that, until they went to Adam ﷺ, while sweat nearly bridled them. They said: O Adam, you are the father of mankind, and Allah chose you; intercede for us with your Lord. He said: I have met the like of what you have met. Go to your father; go to Noah. Allah chose Adam and Noah and the family of Abraham and the family of Imran above the worlds. He said: So they go to Noah and say: Intercede for us with your Lord, for Allah chose you and answered your supplication, and you did not leave on the earth any of the disbelievers. He says: That is not with me; go to Abraham. So they go to Abraham and say the like of that to him, and he says: That is not with me; go to Moses, for Allah, Blessed and Exalted, spoke to him directly. Moses says: That is not with me; go to Jesus, for he healed the blind and the leper and revived the dead by Allah's permission. Jesus says: That is not with me, but go to the master of the children of Adam, Muhammad ﷺ, for he is the first from whom the earth will split open on the Day of Resurrection. Go to Muhammad, and let him intercede for you with your Lord. Then Gabriel ﷺ comes to his Lord, and He, Blessed and Exalted, says: Give him permission and give him glad tidings of Paradise. I think he said: Gabriel brings him, and he falls prostrate for the length of a week. Then Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says: Raise your head, speak and you will be heard, intercede and your intercession will be accepted. He said: So he raises his head, and when he looks at his Lord, Blessed and Exalted, he falls prostrate for another week. Then He, Blessed and Exalted, says: O Muhammad, raise your head, intercede and your intercession will be accepted, and ask and you will be given. So he goes and falls prostrate, and Gabriel takes hold of his upper arms, and Allah, Blessed and Exalted, opens for him from supplication what He has never opened for anyone. He says: O Lord, You made me the master of the children of Adam and the first from whom the earth will split open on the Day of Resurrection, and no boast. And he mentioned the cistern, saying: Its width—I think he said—is between San'a and Aylah. Then it is said: Call the truthful ones. He said: They intercede. He said: Then it is said: Call the prophets. He said: A prophet comes with a group, and a prophet with five or six, and a prophet with no one. Then it is said: Call the martyrs. He said: They intercede for whom they wish. When the martyrs have done that, he said: Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says: I am the Most Merciful of the merciful. Admit—meaning—into Paradise those who did not associate anything with Allah. He said: So they enter Paradise. And Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says: Look at those in the Fire; is there anyone left who ever did any good? They say: No, I think. He said: So a man is brought, and He says: Did you ever do any good? He says: No, except that I used to be lenient with people in trade. So Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says: Be lenient with My servant as he was lenient with My servants. Then they bring out another man from the Fire, and Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says: Did you ever do any good? He says: No, except that I commanded my children, when I die, to burn me in the fire, then grind me until I am like kohl, then go with me to the sea and scatter me in the wind. He said: Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says: Why did you do that? He says: Out of fear of You. He says: Look at the kingdom of the greatest king; you have the like of it, or you shall have the like of it. He said: That is the one at which I laughed from the forenoon. And this hadith is a hadith in which there are two men whom we do not know to have narrated anything except this hadith: Abu Hunaydah al-Bara' b. Nawfal, for we do not know that he narrated any hadith other than this, and likewise al-An, we do not know that he narrated except this hadith, even though this chain, despite what is in it of the chain we mentioned, has been narrated by a group of eminent scholars by transmission, and they accepted it.

✧ My father died owing a debt. I offered his creditors to take the dates for what was owed, but they refused and did not see in it full repayment. So I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned that to him. He said: When you harvest it and place it in the drying yard, inform me. When I harvested it and placed it in the drying yard, I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he came with Abu Bakr and Umar, may Allah have mercy on them. He sat and invoked blessing upon it, then said: Call your creditors and pay them. I did not leave anyone who had a debt against my father except that I paid him, and thirteen wasqs remained: seven of 'ajwah and six of lawn, or six of 'ajwah and seven of lawn.

لَمَّا قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ: فَدَخَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَوَضَعَ فَاهُ عَلَى جَبِينِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يُقَبِّلُهُ وَيَقُولُ: بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي، طِبْتَ حَيًّا وَمَيِّتًا، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ مَرَّ بِعُمَرَ رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: وَاللهِ مَا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَا يَمُوتُ حَتَّى نَقْتُلَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ، قَالَ: وَقَدْ كَانُوا اسْتَبْشَرُوا بِمَوْتِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَرَفَعُوا رُءُوسَهُمْ فَمَرَّ بِهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ: أَيُّهَا الرَّجُلُ: أَرْبِعْ عَلَى نَفْسِكِ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ مَاتَ، أَلَمْ تَسْمَعِ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى يَقُولُ: إِنَّكَ مَيِّتٌ وَإِنَّهُمْ مَيِّتُونَ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا لِبَشَرٍ مِنْ قَبْلِكَ الْخُلْدَ أَفَإِنْ مِتَّ فَهُمُ الْخَالِدُونَ قَالَ: وَأَتَى الْمِنْبَرَ فَصَعِدَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنْ كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ إِلَهَكُمُ الَّذِي تَعْبُدُونَ فَإِنَّ إِلَهَكُمْ قَدْ مَاتَ، وَإِنْ كَانَ إِلَهُكُمُ اللهَ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاءِ فَإِنَّ إِلَهَكُمْ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ تَلَا وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ إِلا رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ حَتَّى خَتَمَ الْآيَةَ قَالَ: ثُمَّ نَزَلَ وَقَدِ اسْتَبْشَرَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ بِذَلِكَ وَاشْتَدَّ فَرَحُهُمْ وَأَخَذَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ الْكَآبَةُ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَكَأَنَّمَا كَانَتْ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ أَغْطِيَةٌ فَكُشِفَتْ

He entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, placed his mouth on the forehead of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and began kissing him and saying: May my father and mother be your ransom; you were good alive and dead. When he came out, he passed by Umar, may Allah have mercy on him, while he was saying: By Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has not died, and he will not die until we kill the hypocrites. He said: They had rejoiced at the death of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and raised their heads. Abu Bakr passed by him and said: O man, calm yourself, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has died. Have you not heard Allah, Blessed and Exalted, say: 'Indeed, you are to die, and indeed they are to die' and 'We did not grant immortality to any human before you; so if you die, will they live forever?' He said: Then he went to the pulpit, ascended it, praised and extolled Allah, then said: O people, if Muhammad was your god whom you worship, then your god has died; but if your god is Allah who is in heaven, then your god is alive and does not die. Then he recited: 'Muhammad is but a messenger; messengers have passed away before him,' until the end of the verse. Then he descended, and the believers rejoiced at that, and their joy increased, while the hypocrites were overcome with gloom. Abdullah b. Umar said: By the One in whose hand is my soul, it was as if there had been coverings on their faces and they were lifted.

لَمَّا انْصَرَفَ النَّاسُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَى رَجُلٍ يُقَاتِلُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَقُلْتُ: كُنْ طَلْحَةَ قَالَ: ثُمَّ نَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا إِنْسَانٌ خَلْفِي كَأَنَّهُ طَائِرٌ فَلَمْ أَشْعُرْ أَنْ أَدْرَكَنِي فَإِذَا هُوَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ، فَإِذَا طَلْحَةُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ صَرِيعٌ، فَقَالَ: دُونَكُمْ أَخُوكُمْ فَقَدْ أَوْجَبَ، فَتَرَكْنَاهُ وَأَقْبَلْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِذَا قَدْ أَصَابَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي وَجْهِهِ سَهْمَانِ، فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَنْزِعَهُمَا فَمَا زَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ يَسْأَلُنِي وَيَطْلُبُ إِلَيَّ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهُ فَنَزَعَ أَحَدَ السَّهْمَيْنِ فَأَزَمَ عَلَيْهِ بِأَسْنَانِهِ فَقَلَعَهُ وَابْتَدَرَتْ إِحْدَى ثَنِيَّتَيْهِ، ثُمَّ لَمْ يَزَلْ يَسْأَلُنِي وَيَطْلُبُ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَدَعَهُ يَنْزِعُ الْآخَرَ فَوَضَعَ ثَنِيَّتَهُ عَلَى السَّهْمِ وَأَزَمَّ عَلَيْهِ كَرَاهَةَ أَنْ يُؤْذِيَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ إِنْ تَحَرَّكَ فَنَزَعَهُ وَابْتَدَرَتْ ثَنِيَّتُهُ أَوْ إِحْدَى ثَنِيَّتَيْهِ، فَكَانَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ أَهْتَمَ الثَّنَايَا
✧ When the people turned away from the Prophet ﷺ on the day of Uhud, I was the first to come to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I began looking at a man fighting in front of him and said, "Be Talhah." Then I looked and there was a person behind me as if he were a bird; I did not realize he had caught up with me, and it was Abu ʿUbaydah b. al-Jarrah. There was Talhah lying fallen before him. He said, "Your brother has fulfilled his duty." So we left him and turned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. It turned out that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had been struck in his face by two arrows. I wanted to pull them out, but Abu ʿUbaydah kept asking and imploring me until I let him. He pulled out one of the two arrows, biting on it with his teeth, and extracted it, and one of his front teeth fell out. Then he kept asking me to let him pull out the other. He placed his front tooth on the arrow and bit down, fearing to hurt the Messenger of Allah ﷺ if he moved, and he pulled it out, and his front tooth or one of his front teeth fell out. Thus Abu ʿUbaydah became gap-toothed.

✧ I heard ʿAlī b. Abī Tālib ؓ narrating from Abū Bakr al-Siddīq, may Allah have mercy on him, from the Prophet ﷺ, similar to the hadith of ʿAlī that Asmāʾ b. al-Hakam narrated. We do not know this hadith to be reported from the Prophet ﷺ except through this chain we mentioned. Both chains are defective. As for Asmāʾ b. al-Hakam, he is an unknown man who narrated only this hadith, and none narrated from him except ʿAlī b. Rabīʿah. One cannot rely on every hadith like this, especially since Shuʿbah doubted his name. As for ʿAbd Allah b. Saʿīd, he is a man of rejected hadith; scholars of transmission do not differ about the weakness of his hadith. Therefore, it is not obligatory to take him as proof in what he alone narrates. In what trustworthy narrators share with him, we are content with their narration over his.

He said: While I was with the Messenger of God ﷺ, I saw him pushing something away from himself while I saw nothing. I said: O Messenger of God, what is it that I saw you pushing away from yourself while I saw nothing? He said: The world extended itself to me, and I said: Away from me! And it said: Indeed you will not catch me. That distressed me, and I feared that I had opposed the command of the Messenger of God ﷺ and the world had caught up with me.

I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until we reached Madinah, and the people met him, and men, women, and servants came out onto the roads saying: "Allah is greater; Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, has come." The people disputed which of them he would stay with, but the Prophet of Allah ﷺ said: "Tonight we will stay with Banu al-Najjar, the maternal uncles of Abd al-Muttalib, to honor them by that." Then he rose in the morning and went where he was commanded. Al-Bara said: The first to come to us was Umar b. al-Khattab with twenty riders, and we said: "What happened to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He said: "He is on my track." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, and before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived I had recited some surahs from the Mufassal. This hadith Shu'ba narrated from it a portion, namely that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ drank until I was satisfied.

نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ بِذَلِكَ. وَحَدِيثُ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَدْ شَارَكَهُ عَلَى مِثْلِ رِوَايَتِهِ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنْهُمْ زُهَيْرٌ وَحُدَيْجُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ وَغَيْرُهُمَا، وَهُوَ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ الْأَسَانِيدِ الَّتِي رُوِيَتْ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ وَرِضْوَانُهُ
✧ Muhammad b. Ja'far narrated to us, from Shu'ba, from Abu Ishaq, from al-Bara, from Abu Bakr likewise. And Israel's hadith was shared by a group in a similar narration, among them Zuhayr and Hudayj b. Mu'awiya and others, and it is one of the best chains of transmission narrated from Abu Bakr, may Allah's mercy and pleasure be upon him.

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ تَبَّتْ يَدَا أَبِي لَهَبٍ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةُ أَبِي لَهَبٍ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَالِسٌ وَمَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: لَوْ تَنَحَّيْتَ لَا تُؤْذِيكَ بِشَيْءٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " إِنَّهُ سَيُحَالُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهَا " فَأَقْبَلَتْ حَتَّى وَقَفَتْ عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَتْ: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ هَجَانَا صَاحِبُكَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: لَا وَرَبِّ هَذِهِ الْبَنِيَّةِ مَا يَنْطِقُ بِالشِّعْرِ وَلَا يَتَفَوَّهُ بِهِ. فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّكَ لَمُصَدَّقٌ، فَلَمَّا وَلَّتْ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: مَا رَأَتْكَ، قَالَ: لَا مَا زَالَ مَلَكٌ يَسْتُرُنِي حَتَّى وَلَّتْ
✧ When "Perish the hands of Abu Lahab" was revealed, the wife of Abu Lahab came while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting with Abu Bakr. Abu Bakr said to him: "If you move aside, she will not harm you with anything." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "A barrier will be placed between me and her." She approached until she stood before Abu Bakr and said: "O Abu Bakr, your companion has satirized us." Abu Bakr said: "No, by the Lord of this structure, he does not utter poetry nor speak it." She said: "You are indeed truthful." When she turned away, Abu Bakr said: "She did not see you." He said: "No, an angel kept covering me until she turned away."
