   أَنَّ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ صَنَعَ طَعَامًا لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَرْسَلَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، فَجَاءَ حَتَّى دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ، فَقَالَ: أَدَعَانَا أَبُوكَ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَقَالَ: قُومُوا، قَالَ أَنَسٌ: فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا هُوَ طَعَامٌ أَرَدْنَا أَنْ نُتْحِفَكَ بِهِ، فَدَعَا بِهِ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ وَدَعَا بِالْبَرَكَةِ، فَقَالَ: أَدْخِلْ عَشَرَةً، فَأَدْخَلَهُمْ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَدْخِلْ عَشَرَةً، فَأَدْخَلَهُمْ، فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أُدْخِلُ عَشَرَةً عَشَرَةً حَتَّى شَبِعُوا كُلُّهُمْ، وَأَفْضَلَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِثْلَ مَا صَنَعْنَا، أَوْ أَفْضَلَ.

   ✧ Abu Talha prepared food for the Prophet ﷺ, and he sent Anas b. Malik. He came until he entered the mosque while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was among his companions, and he said: "Did your father invite us?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Get up." Anas said: "So I went to Abu Talha and informed him, and he said: 'O Messenger of Allah, it is only food that we wished to honor you with.' So he called for it, placed his hand upon it, and supplicated for blessing. Then he said: 'Admit ten.' So he admitted them and they ate until they were full. Then he said: 'Admit ten,' and he admitted them. I kept admitting ten at a time until they all ate their fill, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ left for us the like of what we had prepared, or more."

   ✧ Whoever Allah, Blessed and Exalted, grants a lifespan of forty years in Islam, Allah diverts from him various kinds of affliction: insanity, leprosy, and vitiligo. Abdul Malik al-Juddi said in his version: Allah withholds from him various kinds of affliction: leprosy, vitiligo, and the strangling of Satan. And whoever Allah grants a lifespan of fifty years in Islam, Allah makes the reckoning gentle for him. Abu Damrah said: Allah makes the reckoning easy for him on the Day of Resurrection. And whoever Allah grants a lifespan of sixty years in Islam, Allah grants him turning to Him in repentance with what Allah loves. Abu Damrah said: Allah grants him excellent turning to Him. And whoever Allah grants a lifespan of seventy years in Islam, the inhabitants of heaven and the inhabitants of earth love him. And whoever Allah grants a lifespan of eighty years in Islam, Allah erases his evil deeds and records his good deeds. Anas b. Iyad said in his version: His good deeds are recorded and his evil deeds are not recorded. And whoever Allah grants a lifespan of ninety years in Islam, Allah forgives him his sins, and he becomes a prisoner of Allah on His earth and an intercessor for his household on the Day of Resurrection. Anas b. Iyad said: He is a prisoner of Allah on His earth and intercedes for his household.

    ✧ While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was delivering a sermon one day, a man entered through a door that faced the pulpit and said: "O Messenger of Allah, wealth has been destroyed and the roads have been cut off, so supplicate to Allah to send us rain." The Prophet ﷺ raised his hands and said: "O Allah, give us rain; O Allah, give us rain; O Allah, give us rain." By Allah, no cloud or even a small piece of cloud could be seen in the sky, and there was no house or dwelling between us and Sal' [a mountain]. Then a cloud like a shield appeared from its corner, and when it reached the middle of the sky it spread. Anas said: "By Allah, we did not see the sun for six [days]. Then a man came through that same door on the following Friday while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was standing delivering the sermon. When he faced him while standing, he said: 'O Messenger of Allah, wealth has been destroyed and the roads have been cut off, so supplicate to Allah to remove it from us.' The Prophet ﷺ raised his hands and said: 'O Allah, around us and not upon us; O Allah, upon the hills and the rocky outcrops and the beds of the valleys and the places where trees grow.' He said: 'It cleared, and we went out walking in the sun.' Sharik said: 'I asked Anas: Was it the same man as the first? He said: I do not know.'"

    ✧ The martyrs are three: A man who went out with his life and wealth, seeking reward in the path of Allah, not wanting to kill or be killed or fight, but to increase the numbers of the Muslims. If he dies or is killed, all his sins are forgiven him, and he is protected from the punishment of the grave, and secured from the greatest terror, and married to the wide-eyed houris, and the garment of honor is placed on him, and the crown of dignity and eternity is placed on his head. The second: A man who went out with his life and wealth, seeking reward, wanting to be killed and not to kill. If he dies or is killed, his knee will be with the knee of Ibrahim, the Friend of the Merciful, before Allah, Blessed and Exalted, in a seat of truth near an Omnipotent Sovereign. The third: A man who went out with his life and wealth, seeking reward, wanting to kill and be killed. If he dies or is killed, he will come on the Day of Resurrection brandishing his sword, placing it on his shoulder, while the people are kneeling on their knees, saying, 'Make way for us, for we have sacrificed our blood for Allah, Blessed and Exalted.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'By the One in whose hand is my soul, if he said it to Ibrahim, the Friend of the Merciful, or to any prophet among the prophets, they would move aside from the path for them, because of the obligation of their right that he sees, until they come to pulpits of light on the right of the Throne, and sit on them, watching how judgment is passed among the people. They do not feel the agony of death, nor do they remain in the barzakh, nor does the shout frighten them, nor do the reckoning, the scales, or the bridge concern them. They watch how judgment is passed among the people, and they do not ask for anything but they are given it, and they do not intercede for anything but they are granted intercession in it. They are given from Paradise whatever they love, and they take their abode in Paradise wherever they love.'

His companion said: 'What is that?' He said: 'For eighteen years he has been afflicted and Allah has not shown him mercy by removing what he has. When he saw his condition, the man could not keep it to himself and mentioned that to him. Ayyub said: 'I do not know what you are saying, except that Allah knows from me that I used to pass by two men disputing, and they would mention Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, and I would return to my house and make atonement for them, disliking that they should mention Allah except in truth.' He used to go out to relieve himself, and when he finished, his wife would take him by the hand until he reached home. One day she was delayed for him, and it was revealed to Ayyub in his place: 'Strike the ground with your foot; this is a cool bathing place and a drink.' He said: 'She thought he was delayed, so she went looking for him. He came toward her, and Allah had removed the affliction he had, and he was the most handsome he had ever been. When she saw him, she said: 'May Allah bless you! Have you seen Allah's Prophet ﷺ, this afflicted one? By Allah, I have seen no one more like him than you when he was healthy.' He said: 'I am he.' He said: He had two threshing floors: one for wheat and one for barley. Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, sent two clouds.

     ✧ Muʿādh b. Jabal used to lead his people in prayer. Ḥarām entered while he wanted to water his palm trees, so he entered the mosque to pray with the people. When he saw Muʿādh—I think he had lengthened the prayer—he shortened his prayer and went to his palm trees to water them. When Muʿādh finished the prayer, or completed it, it was said to him: So-and-so entered the mosque, and when he saw you lengthen the prayer, he shortened his prayer and went to his palm trees to water them. Then Ḥarām came to the Messenger of God ﷺ while Muʿādh was with him and said: O Prophet of God, I wanted to water my palm trees, so I entered the mosque to pray with the people. When he lengthened the prayer, I shortened my prayer and went to my palm trees to water them. He claims that I am a hypocrite. The Messenger of God ﷺ turned to Muʿādh and said: Are you a source of temptation? Are you a source of temptation? Do not lengthen the prayer with them. Recite: “Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High,” “By the sun and its morning brightness,” and the like.

     ✧ There was a camel belonging to some people of the Ansar which they used for drawing water. It became refractory and refused them its back. The Ansar came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: O Messenger of Allah, we had a camel that we used for drawing water, and it became refractory and refused us its back. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his companions: Arise. So they arose with him, and he came to a garden while the camel was in a corner. It came walking toward him. They said: O Messenger of Allah, it has become like a dog, and we fear for you from it—or we fear its attack upon you. He said: There is no harm to me from it. When the camel saw him, it came moving until it fell down prostrating before him. His companions said: O Messenger of Allah, this is a beast that does not reason, and we do reason. We are more deserving to prostrate to you. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: It is not right for anything to prostrate to anything. Even if it were right for anything to prostrate to anything, I would command the woman to prostrate to her husband because of the greatness of his right over her.

     ✧ Three registers will be brought out for the son of Adam on the Day of Resurrection: a register containing his good deeds, a register containing his sins, and a register containing the blessings God bestowed upon him. God will say to the smallest blessing — I think he said: in the register of blessings — 'Take your price from his good deeds.' So his good deeds will be consumed. Then it is set aside and says: 'By Your might, I have not been fully repaid.' The sins and blessings remain, while all the good deeds are gone. If God wishes to have mercy on a servant, He says: 'My servant, I have multiplied your good deeds, and I have overlooked your evil deeds' — I think he said — 'and I have granted you My blessings.'

As for the wrongdoing that God forgives, it is the wrongdoing of servants against themselves regarding their relationship with their Lord. As for the wrongdoing that God does not leave, it is the wrongdoing of servants against one another until some are repaid by others.

     قَالَ غُلَامٌ مِنَّا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ: لَنْ نُهْزَمَ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ قِلَّةٍ، فَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنْ لَقِينَا عَدُوَّنَا فَانْهَزَمَ الْقَوْمُ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ لَهُ، وَأَبُو سُفْيَانَ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ آخِذٌ بِلِجَامِهَا، وَالْعَبَّاسُ عَمُّهُ آخِذٌ بِغَرْزِهَا، وَكُنَّا فِي وَادِ دَهْسٍ، فَارْتَفَعَ النَّقْعُ - فَمَا مِنَّا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يُبْصِرُ كَفَّهُ - إِذَا شَخْصٌ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: إِلَيْكَ، مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ قَالَ: أَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي، وَبِهِ بِضْعَةَ عَشَرَ ضَرْبَةً، ثُمَّ إِذَا شَخْصٌ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ فَقَالَ: إِلَيْكَ، مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ فَقَالَ: عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي، وَبِهِ بِضْعَةَ عَشَرَ ضَرْبَةً. وَإِذَا شَخْصٌ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ وَبِهِ بِضْعَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ ضَرْبَةً فَقَالَ: إِلَيْكَ، مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ فَقَالَ: عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ، فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي، ثُمَّ إِذَا شَخْصٌ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ وَبِهِ بِضْعَةَ عَشَرَ ضَرْبَةً فَقَالَ: إِلَيْكَ، مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ فَقَالَ: عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ النَّاسُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: أَلَا رَجُلٌ صَيِّتٌ يَنْطَلِقُ فَيُنَادِي فِي الْقَوْمِ ؟ فَانْطَلَقَ رَجُلٌ فَصَاحَ، فَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنْ وَقَعَ صَوْتُهُ فِي أَسْمَاعِهِمْ، فَأَقْبَلُوا رَاجِعِينَ، فَحَمَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَحَمَلَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مَعَهُ، فَانْهَزَمَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ، وَانْحَازَ دُرَيْدُ بْنُ الصِّمَّةِ عَلَى جُبَيْلٍ - أَوْ قَالَ: عَلَى أَكَمَةٍ - فِي زُهَاءِ سِتِّمِائَةٍ. فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ: أَرَى - وَاللهِ - كَتِيبَةً قَدْ أَقْبَلَتْ، قَالَ: خَلُّوهُمْ لِي، قَالَ: سِيمَاهُمْ كَذَا، مِنْ هَيْئَتِهِمْ كَذَا، قَالَ: لَا بَأْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ، قُضَاعَةُ مُنْطَلِقَةٌ فِي آثَارِ الْقَوْمِ، قَالُوا: نَرَى - وَاللهِ - كَتِيبَةً خَشْنَاءَ قَدْ أَقْبَلَتْ، قَالَ: خَلُّوهُمْ لِي، قَالَ: سِيمَاهُمْ كَذَا، مِنْ هَيْئَتِهِمْ كَذَا، قَالَ: لَا بَأْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ، هَذِهِ سُلَيْمٌ، ثُمَّ قَالُوا: نَرَى فَارِسًا قَدْ أَقْبَلَ قَالَ: وَيْلَكُمْ ! وَحْدَهُ ؟ قَالُوا: وَحْدَهُ، قَالَ: خَلُّوهُ لِي، قَالُوا: مُعْتَجِرًا بِعِمَامَةٍ سَوْدَاءَ، قَالَ دُرَيْدٌ: ذَاكَ - وَاللهِ - الزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ، وَهُوَ - وَاللهِ - قَاتِلُكُمْ وَمُخْرِجُكُمْ مِنْ مَكَانِكُمْ هَذَا، قَالَ: فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِمْ، فَقَالَ: عَلَامَ يُتْرَكُ هَؤُلَاءِ هَاهُنَا، فَمَضَى وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ، فَقَتَلَ زُهَاءَ ثَلَاثِمِائَةٍ، وَجَزَّ رَأْسَ دُرَيْدِ بْنِ الصِّمَّةِ فَجَعَلَهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ.

     ✧ A boy from among us, from the Ansar, said on the day of Hunayn: 'We will not be defeated today due to lack of numbers.' But no sooner did we meet our enemy than the people fled. The Messenger of God ﷺ was on a mule of his, with Abu Sufyan b. al-Harith holding its bridle and al-Abbas, his uncle, holding its stirrup. We were in a sandy valley, and the dust rose so that none of us could see his own hand. Then a figure approached. He said to him: 'Come forward; who are you?' He said: 'I am Abu Bakr; may my father and mother be your ransom.' He had some ten-odd wounds. Then another figure approached, and he said: 'Come forward; who are you?' He said: 'Umar b. al-Khattab; may my father and mother be your ransom.' He had some ten-odd wounds. Then another figure approached with some twenty-odd wounds, and he said: 'Come forward; who are you?' He said: 'Uthman b. Affan; may my father and mother be your ransom.' Then another figure approached with some ten-odd wounds, and he said: 'Come forward; who are you?' He said: 'Ali b. Abi Talib; may my father and mother be your ransom.' Then the people advanced. The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Is there not a man with a loud voice who can go and call out among the people?' A man went and shouted, and no sooner did his voice reach their ears than they came back. The Prophet ﷺ charged, and the Muslims charged with him, and the polytheists fled. Durayd b. al-Simmah withdrew to a small mountain — or he said: to a hill — with about six hundred men. Some of the people said to him: 'By God, I see a troop has come.' He said: 'Leave them to me.' He said: 'Their mark is such-and-such, from their appearance such-and-such.' He said: 'No harm to you; Quda'ah is moving off in the tracks of the people.' They said: 'By God, we see a rough troop has come.' He said: 'Leave them to me.' He said: 'Their mark is such-and-such, from their appearance such-and-such.' He said: 'No harm to you; this is Sulaym.' Then they said: 'We see a horseman has come.' He said: 'Woe to you! Alone?' They said: 'Alone.' He said: 'Leave him to me.' They said: 'He has wrapped his head with a black turban.' Durayd said: 'That, by God, is al-Zubayr b. al-Awwam, and he, by God, is your killer and the one who will expel you from this place of yours.' He turned to them and said: 'Why are these left here?' Then he went on with those who followed him, and he killed about three hundred, and he cut off the head of Durayd b. al-Simmah and placed it before him.

     ✧ Whoever leaves this world upon sincerity to God, Blessed and Exalted, and worship of Him, not associating anything with Him, and upon establishing prayer and giving zakat, leaves it while God is pleased with him. That is the religion of God with which the messengers came and which they conveyed from their Lord before the clear-cut hadiths and the divergence of whims. Confirmation of that is in the Book of God: 'If they repent' — he says: if they cast off idols and worship of them — 'and establish prayer and give zakat, then leave their way clear,' and he recited another verse: 'If they repent and establish prayer and give zakat, then they are your brothers in religion.'
