   كُنَّا مَعَ سَالِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ فِي سَفَرٍ فَعَطَسَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى أُمِّكَ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ لَعَلَّكَ وَجَدْتَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَذْكُرَ أُمِّي فَقَالَ سَالِمٌ كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ فَعَطَسَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى أُمِّكَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ إِذَا عَطَسَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ أَوِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ وَلْيُقَلْ لَهُ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ وَلْيَقُلْ يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لِي وَلَكُمْ

   ✧ We were with Salim b. Ubayd on a journey, and a man sneezed and said, "Peace be upon you." He said, "Peace be upon you and upon your mother." Then he was asked, and he said, "Perhaps you found something objectionable in that." He said, "I do not like that you mention my mother." Salim said, "We were with the Prophet ﷺ, and a man sneezed and said, "Peace be upon you." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Peace be upon you and upon your mother." Then he said, "When one of you sneezes, let him say, 'Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds,' or 'Praise be to Allah in every situation,' and let it be said to him, 'May Allah have mercy on you,' and let him say, 'May Allah forgive me and you.'"

   كُنَّا مَعَ سَالِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ فِي سَفَرٍ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ الثَّوْرِيِّ «رَوَاهُ جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَلَى الْوَهْمِ فَأَسْقَطَ الرَّجُلَ الْمَجْهُولَ النَّخَعِيَّ بَيْنَ هِلَالِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ وَسَالِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ»

   ✧ We were with Salim b. Ubayd on a journey, and he mentioned the hadith in full, similar to the hadith of al-Thawri. "It was narrated by Jarir b. Abd al-Hamid from Mansur based on a misunderstanding, as he omitted the unknown man of al-Nakha'i between Hilal b. Yasaf and Salim b. Ubayd."

   سَالِمٌ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى أُمِّكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِذَا عَطَسَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ وَلْيَقُلْ مَنْ عِنْدَهُ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ وَلْيَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِمْ يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لَنَا وَلَكُمُ الْوَهْمُ فِي رِوَايَةِ جَرِيرٍ هَذِهِ ظَاهِرٌ فَإِنَّ هِلَالَ بْنَ يَسَافٍ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ سَالِمَ بْنَ عُبَيْدٍ وَلَمْ يَرَهُ وَبَيْنَهُمَا رَجُلٌ مَجْهُولٌ فَأَمَّا اللَّفْظُ الَّذِي وَقَعَ لِبَعْضِ الْفُقَهَاءِ الَّذِي لَا يُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ صَحِيحِ الْأَخْبَارِ وَسَقِيمِهَا فِي أَمْرِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الْعَاطِسُ أَنْ يَقُولَ لِلْمُشَمِّتِ يَهْدِيكُمُ اللَّهُ وَيُصْلِحُ بَالَكُمْ فَيُوهَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا التَّشْمِيتَ لِأَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ دُونَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ

   ✧ Salim: "Peace be upon you and upon your mother." Then he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'When one of you sneezes, let him praise Allah, and let those with him say, "May Allah have mercy on you," and let him reply to them, "May Allah forgive us and you."'" The error in this narration of Jarir is apparent, for Hilal b. Yasaf did not meet Salim b. Ubayd nor see him, and between them is an unknown man. As for the wording that some jurists, who do not distinguish between sound and weak reports, have adopted regarding the Prophet's ﷺ instruction to the sneezer to say to the one who responds, "May Allah guide you and set your affairs right," it leads one to suppose that this response is for the People of the Book rather than Muslims.

   كَانَ الْيَهُودُ يَتَعَاطَسُونَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَرْجُونَ أَنْ يَقُولَ لَهُمْ يَرْحَمُكُمُ اللَّهُ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَهُمْ «يَهْدِيكُمُ اللَّهُ وَيُصْلِحُ بَالَكُمْ»

   ✧ The Jews used to sneeze in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ hoping that he would say to them, "May Allah have mercy on you," and he used to say to them, "May Allah guide you and set your affairs right."

5. al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim) 7700Abu Dawud silent

   قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَا عَلِيُّ سَلِ اللَّهَ الْهُدَى وَالسَّدَادَ وَاذْكُرْ بِالْهُدَى هِدَايَتَكَ الطَّرِيقَ وَبِالسَّدَادِ تَسْدِيدَكَ السَّهْمَ» ثُمَّ أَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَلَدَهُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ سَيِّدَ شَبَابِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ بِمِثْلِ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ أَبَاهُ حَدِيثُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَوْزَاءِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ فِي دُعَاءِ الْقُنُوتِ الَّذِي عَلَّمَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ» أَشْهَرُ مِنْ أَنْ يُذْكَرَ إِسْنَادُهُ وَطُرُقُهُ رَجَعْنَا إِلَى الْأَخْبَارِ الصَّحِيحَةِ فِي الْآدَابِ مِمَّا لَمْ يُخَرِّجْهَا الْإِمَامَانِ سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

   ✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Ali, ask Allah for guidance and right direction, and remember by guidance your guidance on the path, and by right direction your aiming of the arrow." Then the Prophet ﷺ commanded his son al-Hasan b. Ali, the master of the youth of Paradise, the like of what he commanded his father. The hadith of Yazid b. Abi Maryam, from Abu al-Jawza', from al-Hasan b. Ali regarding the supplication of qunut which the Prophet ﷺ taught: "O Allah, guide me among those You have guided," is too well-known for its chain and routes to be mentioned. We have returned to the sound reports on etiquette that the two imams did not include. Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in the Talkhis.

   نَهَى أَنْ يَضَعَ الرَّجُلُ إِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى وَهُوَ مُضْطَجِعٌ»

   ✧ He forbade a man placing one of his legs over the other while lying down.

7. al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim) 7702Abu Dawud silent

   نَهَى عَنِ اشْتِمَالِ الصَّمَّاءِ وَأَنْ يَرْفَعَ الرَّجُلُ إِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى وَهُوَ مُسْتَلْقٍ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ»

   ✧ He forbade wrapping oneself in the samma' (a manner of wearing a garment with no opening for the hands) and that a man raise one of his legs over the other while lying on his back.

8. al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim) 7703Sahih

   أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِهِ وَهُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى إِلْيَةِ يَدِهِ خَلْفَ ظَهْرِهِ فَقَالَ «تَقْعُدُ قَعْدَةَ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ»

   ✧ The Prophet ﷺ passed by him while he was leaning on the fleshy part of his hand behind his back, and he said, "You sit like those upon whom is wrath."

9. al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim) 7704Sahih

   «خَيْرُ الْمَجَالِسِ أَوْسَعُهَا»

   ✧ "The best of gatherings is the most spacious of them."

    أَنَّ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ أُوذِنَ بِجِنَازَةٍ فِي قَوْمِهِ فَجَاءَ وَقَدْ أَخَذَ النَّاسُ مَجَالِسَهُمْ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ نَشَزُوا إِلَيْهِ فَجَلَسَ فِي نَاحِيَةٍ وَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «خَيْرُ الْمَجَالِسِ أَوْسَعُهَا»

    ✧ Abu Sa'id al-Khudri was informed of a funeral among his people, so he came and the people had already taken their seats. When they saw him, they rose to make room for him, but he sat in a corner and said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'The best of gatherings is the most spacious of them.'"

    لَقِيتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِي شَبَابِهِ وَجَمَالِهِ وَغَضَارَتِهِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا اسْتُخْلِفَ قَدِمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَأَذِنَ لِي فَجَعَلْتُ أُحِدُّ النَّظَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا ابْنَ كَعْبٍ مَا لِي أَرَاكَ تُحِدُّ النَّظَرَ؟ قُلْتُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لِمَا أَرَى مِنْ تَغَيُّرِ لَوْنِكَ وَنُحُولِ جِسْمِكَ وَنَفَارِ شَعْرِكَ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ كَعْبٍ فَكَيْفَ لَوْ رَأَيْتَنِي بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ فِي قَبْرِي وَقَدِ انْتَزَعَ النَّمْلُ مُقْلَتِي وَسَالَتَا عَلَى خَدِّي وَابْتَدَرَ مِنْخَرَايَ وَفَمِي صَدِيدًا لَكُنْتَ لِي أَشَدَّ إِنْكَارًا دَعْ ذَاكَ أَعِدْ عَلَيَّ حَدِيثَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَرَفًا وَإِنَّ أَشْرَفَ الْمَجَالِسِ مَا اسْتُقْبِلَ بِهِ الْقِبْلَةَ وَإِنَّكُمْ تُجَالِسُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ بِالْأَمَانَةِ وَاقْتُلُوا الْحَيَّةَ وَالْعَقْرَبَ وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ فِي صَلَاتِكُمْ وَلَا تَسْتُرُوا جُدُرَكُمْ وَلَا يَنْظُرْ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ فِي كِتَابِ أَخِيهِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ وَلَا يُصَلِّيَنَّ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ وَرَاءَ نَائِمٍ وَلَا مُحْدِثٍ» بطل الحديث

    ✧ I met Umar b. Abd al-Aziz in Madinah in his youth, his beauty, and his freshness. He said, "When he became caliph, I came to him and sought permission to enter, and he permitted me. I began to stare at him, and he said to me, 'O Ibn Ka'b, why do I see you staring?' I said, 'O Commander of the Faithful, because of what I see of the change in your color, the emaciation of your body, and the scattering of your hair.' He said, 'O Ibn Ka'b, how would it be if you saw me after three days in my grave, when the ants have extracted my eyeballs and they have flowed down my cheeks, and my nostrils and mouth have gushed with pus? You would be even more disapproving of me. Leave that; repeat to me the hadith of Ibn Abbas from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' I said, 'Ibn Abbas said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Everything has an honor, and the most honorable gathering is that which faces the qiblah. You sit together in trust. Kill the snake and the scorpion even if you are in prayer. Do not plaster your walls. None of you should look into his brother's book except with his permission. And none of you should pray behind a sleeping person or one who is ritually impure."' The hadith is invalid.

    «وَمَنْ نَظَرَ فِي كِتَابِ أَخِيهِ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِهِ فَكَأَنَّمَا يَنْظُرُ فِي النَّارِ وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَقْوَى النَّاسِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَكْرَمَ النَّاسِ فَلْيَتَّقِ اللَّهَ ﷻ وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَغْنَى النَّاسِ فَلْيَكُنْ بِمَا فِي يَدِ اللَّهِ أَوْثَقَ مِمَّا فِي يَدِهِ» وَقَالَ «أَفَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِشَرٍّ مِنْ هَذَا؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «مَنْ لَا يَقِيلُ عَثْرَةً وَلَا يَقْبَلُ مَعْذِرَةً وَلَا يَغْفِرُ ذَنْبًا أَفَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِشَرٍّ مِنْ هَذَا؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ مَنْ لَا يُرْجَى خَيْرُهُ وَلَا يُؤْمَنُ شَرُّهُ إِنَّ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَامُهُ قَامَ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَقَالَ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا تَتَكَلَّمُوا بِالْحِكْمَةِ عِنْدَ الْجَاهِلِ فَتَظْلِمُوهَا وَلَا تَمْنَعُوهَا أَهْلَهَا فَتَظْلِمُوهُمْ وَلَا تَظْلِمُوا ظَالِمًا وَلَا تُكَافِئُوا ظَالِمًا فَيَبْطُلُ فَضْلُكُمْ عِنْدَ رَبِّكُمْ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الْأَمْرُ ثَلَاثٌ أَمْرٌ تَبَيَّنَ غَيُّهُ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ وَأَمْرٌ اخْتُلِفَ فِيهِ فَرُدُّوهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ ﷻ

    ✧ "And whoever looks into his brother's book without his permission, it is as if he looks into the Fire. Whoever wishes to be the strongest of people, let him rely upon Allah. Whoever wishes to be the most honorable of people, let him fear Allah ﷻ. Whoever wishes to be the richest of people, let him be more trusting of what is in Allah's hand than what is in his own hand." And he said, "Shall I inform you of something worse than this?" They said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "One who does not overlook a stumble, does not accept an excuse, and does not forgive a sin. Shall I inform you of something worse than this?" They said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "One from whom no good is hoped and whose evil is not safe. Jesus son of Mary, may Allah's blessings and ﷺ, stood among the Children of Israel and said, 'O Children of Israel, do not speak wisdom before the ignorant, lest you wrong it, and do not withhold it from its people, lest you wrong them. Do not wrong a wrongdoer, and do not requite a wrongdoer, lest your virtue be nullified before your Lord. O Children of Israel, matters are three: a matter whose error is clear, so avoid it; a matter about which there is disagreement, so refer it to Allah ﷻ.'"

    ✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us while we were in the Suffa after Maghrib. He said, “O so-and-so, go with so-and-so,” and “O so-and-so, go with so-and-so,” until I remained among five, I being the fifth of them. He said, “Come with me.” We did so, and we entered upon Aisha, and that was before the hijab was revealed. He said, “O Aisha, feed us.” She brought a small dish of herbs. Then he said, “O Aisha, feed us.” She brought a small amount of hais, like the size of a small bird. Then he said, “O Aisha, give us something to drink.” She brought a large wooden bowl. Then he said, “If you wish, you may sleep with us, or if you wish, you may go to the mosque and sleep there.” He said: So we slept in the mosque. Then the Prophet ﷺ came to me at the end of the night and found me sleeping on my stomach. He nudged me with his foot and said, “What is it with you and this sleep? This is a sleep that Allah dislikes or detests.”

    ✧ When you hear the barking of dogs and the braying of donkeys during the night, seek refuge in Allah from the accursed devil, for they see what you do not see. And reduce going out when it is the time of their emergence, for Allah, Exalted is He, scatters in His night from His creation whatever He wills. And close the doors and mention the name of Allah over them, for the devil does not open a door that has been closed and upon which Allah's name has been mentioned.

     إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يُحِبُّ الْعُطَاسَ فَإِذَا عَطَسَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَحَقَّ عَلَى كُلِّ مَنْ سَمِعَهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ

     نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ أَنْ يَجْلِسُوا بِأَفْنِيَةِ الصُّعُدَاتِ قَالُوا إِنَّا لَا نَسْتَطِيعُ ذَاكَ وَلَا نُطِيقُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «أَمَّا لَا فَأَدُّوا حَقَّهَا» قَالُوا وَمَا حَقُّهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «رَدُّ التَّحِيَّةِ وَتَشْمِيتُ الْعَاطِسِ إِذَا حَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَغَضُّ الْبَصَرِ وَإِرْشَادُ السَّبِيلِ»

     ✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade people from sitting in the courtyards of elevated pathways. They said, “We cannot help it and we cannot endure that, O Messenger of Allah.” He said, “If you must, then give them their due.” They said, “What is their due, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Returning the greeting, invoking mercy on the sneezer when he praises Allah, lowering the gaze, and guiding the way.”

115. al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim) 7689Abu Dawud silent

     جَلَسَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ رَجُلَانِ أَحَدُهُمَا أَشْرَفُ مِنَ الْآخَرِ فَعَطَسَ الشَّرِيفُ فَلَمْ يَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ فَلَمْ يُشَمِّتْهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ثُمَّ عَطَسَ الْآخَرُ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ فَشَمَّتَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ الشَّرِيفُ عَطَسْتُ فَلَمْ تُشَمِّتْنِي وَعَطَسَ هَذَا فَشَمَّتَّهُ قَالَ «إِنَّكَ نَسِيتَ اللَّهَ فَنَسِيتُكَ وَإِنَّ هَذَا ذَكَرَ اللَّهَ فَذَكَرْتُهُ» صَحِيحُ الْإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

     ✧ Two men sat with the Prophet ﷺ, one of whom was nobler than the other. The noble one sneezed but did not praise Allah, so the Prophet ﷺ did not invoke mercy on him. Then the other sneezed and praised Allah, so the Prophet ﷺ invoked mercy on him. The noble one said, “I sneezed and you did not invoke mercy on me, but this one sneezed and you invoked mercy on him.” He said, “You forgot Allah, so I forgot you; this one remembered Allah, so I remembered him.” Its chain is authentic but they did not include it. Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in Al-Talkhis.

     ✧ I witnessed Abu Musa while he was in the house of Umm al-Fadl. She sneezed, so I invoked mercy on her, and I sneezed, but he did not invoke mercy on me. When I came to my mother and told her, when Abu Musa came to her, she said to him, “My son sneezed in your presence and you did not invoke mercy on him, while a woman sneezed and you invoked mercy on her.” He said, “Your son sneezed and did not praise Allah, so I did not invoke mercy on him, but she sneezed and praised Allah, so I invoked mercy on her. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, ‘When one of you sneezes and praises Allah, invoke mercy on him; but if he does not praise Allah, do not invoke mercy on him.’” She said, “You have done well, you have done well.”
