English translation

59. Narrated Abū Hurairah رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: While the Prophet ﷺ was saying something in a gathering, a bedouin came and asked him, "When would the Hour (Doomsday) take place?" Allāh's Messenger ﷺ continued his talk, so some people said that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ had heard the question, but did not like what that bedouin had asked. Some of them said that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ had not heard it. When the Prophet ﷺ finished his speech, he said, "Where is the questioner, who enquired about the Hour?" The bedouin said, "I am here, O Allāh's Messenger ﷺ." Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "When Al-Amānah (i.e., the trust or moral responsibility or honesty and all the duties which Allāh has ordained) is lost, then wait for the Hour." The bedouin said, "How will that be lost?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "When the power or authority is given to those who do not deserve it (i.e. they are not pious religious scholars),(1) then wait for the Hour." , for details.

79. Narrated Abū-Mūsā' رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: The Prophet ﷺ said, “The example of guidance and knowledge with which Allāh has sent me is like abundant rain falling on the earth, some of which was fertile soil that absorbed rain-water and brought forth vegetation and grass in abundance. (And) another portion of it was hard and held the rain-water and Allāh benefited the people with it and they utilized it for drinking, making their animals drink from it and to irrigate the land for cultivation. (And) a portion of it was barren which could neither hold the water nor bring forth vegetation (then that land gave no benefits). The first is the example of the person who comprehends Allāh's religion (Islām) and gets benefit (from the knowledge) which Allāh تعالى has revealed through me (the Prophet ﷺ) and learns and then teaches it to others. The (last example is that of a) person who does not care for it and does not take Allāh's guidance revealed through me (He is like that barren land.)”

86. Narrated Asmā’ (bint Abū Bakr) رضي الله عنها: I came to ‘Aishah رضي الله عنها while she was offering Salāt (prayer), and said to her, “What has happened to the people?” She pointed out towards the sky. (I looked towards the mosque), and saw the people offering Salāt (the prayer). ‘Aishah رضي الله عنها said, “Subhān Allāh.” I said to her, “Is there a sign?” She nodded with her head meaning, “Yes.” I, too, then stood (for the prayer of eclipse) till I became (nearly) unconscious and later on I poured water on my head. After the prayer, the Prophet ﷺ praised and glorified Allāh and then said, “Just now at this place I have seen what I have never seen before, including Paradise and Hell. No doubt it has been revealed to me that you will be put to trials in your graves, and these trials will be like the trials of Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal or nearly like it (the subnarrator is not sure which expression Asmā' رضي الله عنها used). You will be asked, 'What do you know about this man (Prophet Muhammad ﷺ)?' Then the faithful believer (or Asmā' رضي الله عنها said a similar word) will reply, 'He is Muhammad ﷺ, Allāh's Messenger who came to us with clear evidences and guidance and so we accepted his teachings and followed him. And he is Muhammad ﷺ.' And he will repeat it thrice. Then the angels will say to him, 'Sleep in peace as we have come to know that you were a faithful believer.' On the other hand, a hypocrite or a doubtful person will reply, 'I do not know, but I heard the people saying something and so I said it' (the same). [See Vol. 2, Hadith No. 1338]

87. Narrated Abū Jamra رضي الله عنه: I was an interpreter between the people and Ibn 'Abbās. Once Ibn 'Abbās said that a delegation of the tribe of 'Abdul Qais came to the Prophet ﷺ who asked them, "Who are the people (i.e. you)? (Or) who are the delegates?" They replied, "We are from the tribe of Rabī'a." Then the Prophet ﷺ said to them, "Welcome, O people [or said, "O delegation (of 'Abdul Qais)"]. Neither will you have disgrace nor will you regret." They said, "We have come to you from a distant place and there is the tribe of the infidels of Muqār intervening between you and us and we cannot come to you except in the sacred month. So please order us to do something good (religious deeds), and that we may inform our people whom we have left behind (at home), and that we may enter Paradise (by acting on them.)" The Prophet ﷺ ordered them to do four things, and forbade them from four things. He ﷺ ordered them to believe in Allāh Alone, the Honourable the Majestic and said to them, "Do you know what is meant by believing in Allāh Alone?" They replied, "Allāh and His Messenger know better." Thereupon the Prophet ﷺ said, "That means to testify that Lā ilāha illallāh wa anna Muḥammad-ar-Rasūl Allāh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh and that Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh), Iqāmat-as-Ṣalāt [to perform As-Salāt (the compulsory congregational prayers) perfectly], to pay Zakāt, to observe Saum [fasts (during the month of Ramaḍān)], (and) to pay Al-Khumus (one-fifth of the booty to be given in Allāh's Cause)." Then he forbade them four things, namely Ad-Dubbā, Al-Hantam, Al-Muzaffat (and) An-Naqīr or Al-Muqaiyar (These were the names of pots in which alcoholic drinks used to be prepared). The Prophet ﷺ further said, "Memorize them (these instructions) and tell them to the people whom you have left behind."

89. Narrated 'Umar رضي الله عنه My Anṣārī neighbour from Bani Umaiyya bin Zaid who used to live at 'Awālī Al-Madīna and I, used to visit the Prophet ﷺ by turns. He used to go one day and I another day. When I went, I used to bring the news of that day regarding the Divine Revelation and other things, and when he went, he used to do the same for me. Once my Anṣārī friend, in his turn (on returning from the Prophet ﷺ), knocked violently at my door and asked if I was there. I became horrified and came out to him. He said, "Today a great thing has happened." I then went to Hāfṣa and saw her weeping. I asked her, "Did Allāh's Messenger ﷺ divorce you all?" She replied, "I do not know." Then, I entered upon the Prophet ﷺ and said while standing, "Have you divorced your wives?" The Prophet ﷺ replied in the negative. On that I said, "Allāhu-Akbar (Allāh is the Most Great)."

I may not attend the (compulsory congregational) Ṣalāt (prayer) because so and so (the Imām) prolongs the Ṣalāt when he leads us for it." The narrator added: "I never saw the Prophet ﷺ more furious in giving advice than he was on that day. The Prophet ﷺ said, "O people! Some of you make others dislike good deeds (Ṣalāt etc.). So whoever leads the people in prayer should shorten it because among them there are the sick, the weak and the one who is in a state that requires urgent relief (having some urgent jobs to do)."

97 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ هُوَ ابْنُ سَلاَمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا المُحَارِبِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَامِرٌ الشَّعْبِيُّ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " ثَلاَثَةٌ لَهُمْ أَجْرَانِ: رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الكِتَابِ، آمَنَ بِنَبِيِّهِ وَآمَنَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَالعَبْدُ المَمْلُوكُ إِذَا أَدَّى حَقَّ اللَّهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ، وَرَجُلٌ كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ أَمَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا، وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا، ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا فَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ عَامِرٌ: أَعْطَيْنَاكَهَا بِغَيْرِ شَيْءٍ، قَدْ كَانَ يُرْكَبُ فِيمَا دُونَهَا إِلَى المَدِينَةِ

104. Narrated Sa‘īd رضي الله عنه: Abū Shurāih said, [When ‘Amr bin Sa‘īd was sending the troops to Makkah (to fight ‘Abdullāh bin Az-Zubair)] I said to him (‘Amr): O chief! Allow me to tell you what the Prophet ﷺ said on the day following the conquest of Makkah. My ears heard and my heart comprehended, and I saw him with my own eyes, when he said it. He ﷺ glorified and praised Allāh and then said, “Allāh تعالى and not the people has made Makkah a sanctuary. So anybody who has belief in Allāh and the Last Day (i.e. a Muslim) should neither shed blood in it nor cut down its trees. If anybody argues that fighting is allowed in Makkah as Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ did fight (in Makkah), tell him that Allāh gave permission to His Messenger ﷺ, but He did not give it to you.” The Prophet ﷺ added: “Allāh allowed me only for a few hours on that day (of the conquest) and today (now) its sanctity is the same (valid) as it was before. So it is incumbent upon those who are present to convey it (this information) to those who are absent.” Abū Shuraih was asked, “What did ‘Amr reply?” He said ‘Amr said, “O Abū Shuraih! I know better than you (in this respect). Makkah does not give protection to one who disobeys (Allāh) or runs after committing murder, or theft (and takes refuge in Makkah).”

English translation

112. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: In the year of the conquest of Makkah, the tribe of Khuzā'a killed a man from the tribe of Bani Laith in revenge for a killed person belonging to them. They informed the Prophet ﷺ about it. So he rode his Rāhila (she-camel for riding) and addressed the people saying, "Allāh held back the elephant or killing from Makkah. (The sub narrator is in doubt whether the Prophet ﷺ said "elephant" or "killing," as the Arabic words standing for these words have great similarity in shape), but He (Allāh) let His Messenger ﷺ and the believers overpower the infidels of Makkah. Beware! (Makkah is a sanctuary) Verily! Fighting in Makkah was not permitted for anyone before me, nor will it be permitted for anyone after me. It (war) in it was made legal for me for few hours or so on that day. No doubt it is at this moment a sanctuary, it is not allowed to uproot its thorny shrubs or to uproot its trees or to pick up its Luqata (fallen things) except by a person who will look for its owner (announce it publicly). And if somebody is killed, then his closest relative has the right to choose one of the two — the blood money (Diya) or retaliation, having the killer killed.” In the meantime a man from Yemen came and said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! Get that written for me.” The Prophet ﷺ ordered his Companions to write that for him. Then a man from Quraish said, “Except Al-Idhkhīr (a type of grass that has good smell) O Allāh’s Messenger, as we use it in our houses and graves.” The Prophet ﷺ said, “Except Al-Idhkhīr i.e. Al-Idhkhīr is allowed to be plucked.”

114. Narrated ‘Ubaidullāh bin ‘Abdullāh : Ibn ‘Abbās رضي الله عنهما said, “When the ailment of the Prophet ﷺ became worse, he said, ‘Bring for me (writing) paper and I will write for you a statement after which you will not go astray.’ But ‘Umar said, ‘The Prophet ﷺ is seriously ill, and we have got Allāh’s Book with us and that is sufficient for us.’ But the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ differed about this and there was a hue and cry. On that the Prophet ﷺ said to them, ‘Go away (and leave me alone). It is not right that you should quarrel in front of me.’” Ibn ‘Abbās came out saying, “It was most unfortunate (a great disaster) that Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ was prevented from writing that statement for them because of their disagreement and noise.” (Note : It is apparent from this Hadīth that Ibn ‘Abbās had witnessed the event and came out saying this statement. The truth is not so, for Ibn ‘Abbās used to say this statement on narrating the Hadīth and he had not witnessed the event personally. See Fath Al-Bārī, Vol.I, p.220 footnote.) (See also Hadīth No.3168, Vol.4).

117. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما: I stayed overnight in the house of my aunt Maimūna bint Al-Hārith (the wife of the Prophet ﷺ) while the Prophet ﷺ was there with her during her night turn. The Prophet ﷺ offered the 'Ishā' prayer (in the mosque), returned home and after having prayed four Rak'ā, he slept. Later on he got up at night and then asked whether the boy (or he used a similar word) had slept? Then he got up for the Ṣalāt (prayer) and I stood up by his left side, but he made me stand to his right and offered five Rak'ā followed by two more Rak'ā. Then he slept and I heard him snoring and then (after a while) he left for the (Fajr) prayer.

118. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: People say that I have narrated many Aḥādīth (the Prophet's narrations). Had it not been for two Verses in the Qur'an, I would not have narrated a single Ḥadīth, and the Verses are : "Verily, those who conceal the clear proofs, and evidences and the guidance, which We have sent down, after We have made it clear for the people in the Book, they are the ones cursed by Allāh and cursed by the cursers. Except those who repent and do righteous deeds, and openly declare (the truth which they concealed). These, I will accept their repentance. And I am the One Who accept repentance, the Most Merciful.” (V.2:159-160). And no doubt our Muhājir (emigrant) brothers used to be busy in the market with their business (bargains) and our Anṣārī brothers used to be busy with their property (agriculture). But I (Abū Hurairah) used to stick to Allāh's Messenger, ﷺ, contented with what will fill my stomach and I used to attend that which they used not to attend and I used to memorize that which they used not to memorize.

119. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: I said to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ “I hear many narrations (Aḥādīth) from you but I forget them.” Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, “Spread your Ridā’ (garment).”(1) I did accordingly and then he moved his hands as if filling them with something (and emptied them in my Ridā) and then said, “Take and wrap this sheet over your body.” I did it and after that I never forgot anything. Narrated Ibrāhīm bin Al-Mundhir: Ibn Abī Fudaik narrated the same as above (Hadīth No. 119) but added that the Prophet ﷺ had moved his hands as if filling them with something.

122. Narrated Sa'īd bin Jubair: I said to Ibn 'Abbās, "Nauf Al-Bakālī claims that Mūsā (Moses) (the companion of Khidr) was not the Mūsā of Banī Isrāēl but he was another Mūsā." Ibn 'Abbās remarked that the enemy of Allāh (Nauf) has told a lie.(1) Narrated Ubai bin Ka'b رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Once the Prophet Mūsā (Moses) عليه السلام stood up and addressed Banī Isrāēl. He was asked, 'Who is the most learned man amongst the people.' He said, 'I am the most learned.' Allāh admonished Mūsā as he did not attribute absolute knowledge to Him (Allāh). So Allāh revealed to him 'At the junction of the two seas there is a slave amongst my slaves who is more learned than you.' Mūsā said, 'O my Lord! How can I meet him?' Allāh said, 'Take a fish in a basket (and proceed) and you will find him at the place where you will lose the fish.' So Mūsā set out along with his (servant) boy, Yūsha' bin Nūn and carried a fish in a basket till they reached a rock, where they laid their heads (i.e., lied down) and slept. The fish came out of the basket and it took its way into the sea (straight) as in a tunnel. So it was an amazing thing for both Mūsā and his (servant) boy. They proceeded for the rest of that night and the following day. When the day broke, Mūsā said to his (servant) boy: 'Bring us our early meal. No doubt, we have suffered much fatigue in this journey.' Mūsā did not get tired till he passed the place about which he was told. There the (servant) boy told Mūsā, 'Do you remember when we betook ourselves to the rock, I indeed forgot the fish.' Mūsā remarked, 'That is what we have been seeking.' So they went back retracing their foot-steps, till they reached the rock. There they saw a man covered with a garment (or covering himself with his own garment). Mūsā greeted him. Al-Khiḏr (عليه السلام) replied saying, 'How do people greet each other in your land?' Mūsā said, 'I am Mūsā.' He asked, 'The Moses of Banī Isrā'el?' Mūsā replied in the affirmative and added, 'May I follow you so that you teach me of that knowledge which you have been taught.' Al-Khiḏr replied, 'Verily! You will not be able to have patience with me, O Mūsā! I have some of the knowledge of Allāh عزوجل which He has taught me and which you do not know, while you have some knowledge which Allāh has taught you which I do not know.' Mūsā said, 'If Allāh will, you will find me patient and I will not disobey you in aught.' So, both of them set out walking along the sea-shore, as they did not have a boat. In the meantime a boat passed by them and they requested the (crew of the boat) to take them on board. The crew recognized Al-Khīdr and took them on board without fare. Then a sparrow came and stood on the edge of the boat and dipped its beak once or twice in the sea. Al-Khīdr said: 'O Mūsā! My knowledge and your knowledge have not decreased Allāh's Knowledge except like the amount of water taken by this sparrow from the sea with its beak.' Then Al-Khīdr went to one of the planks of the boat and plucked it out. Mūsā said, 'These people gave us a free lift but you have broken their boat and scuttled it so as to drown its people.' Al-Khīdr replied, 'Didn't I tell you that you will not be able to have patience with me.' Mūsā said, 'Call me not to account for what I forgot.' The first (excuse) of Mūsā was that he had forgotten. Then they proceeded further and found a boy playing with other boys. Al-Khīdr took hold of the boy's head from the top and plucked it out with his hands (i.e. killed him). Mūsā said, 'Have you killed an innocent person who has killed none.' Al-Khīdr replied, 'Did I not tell you that you cannot have patience with me?' Then they both proceeded till when they came to the people of a town, they asked them for food, but they refused to entertain them. There they found a wall on the point of collapsing. Al-Khīdr repaired it with his own hands. Mūsā said, 'If you had wished, surely you could have taken wages for it.' Al-Khīdr replied, 'This is the parting between you and me.' The Prophet ﷺ added, "May Allāh be Merciful to Mūsā! Would that he could have been more patient to learn more about their story."

122 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: إِنَّ نَوْفًا البَكَالِيَّ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّ مُوسَى لَيْسَ بِمُوسَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِنَّمَا هُوَ مُوسَى آخَرُ؟ فَقَالَ: كَذَبَ عَدُوُّ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: قَامَ مُوسَى النَّبِيُّ خَطِيبًا فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَسُئِلَ أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَعْلَمُ؟ فَقَالَ: أَنَا أَعْلَمُ، فَعَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ، إِذْ لَمْ يَرُدَّ العِلْمَ إِلَيْهِ، فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ: أَنَّ عَبْدًا مِنْ عِبَادِي بِمَجْمَعِ البَحْرَيْنِ، هُوَ أَعْلَمُ مِنْكَ. قَالَ: يَا رَبِّ، وَكَيْفَ بِهِ؟ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: احْمِلْ حُوتًا فِي مِكْتَلٍ، فَإِذَا فَقَدْتَهُ فَهُوَ ثَمَّ، فَانْطَلَقَ وَانْطَلَقَ بِفَتَاهُ يُوشَعَ بْنِ نُونٍ، وَحَمَلاَ حُوتًا فِي مِكْتَلٍ، حَتَّى كَانَا عِنْدَ الصَّخْرَةِ وَضَعَا رُءُوسَهُمَا وَنَامَا، فَانْسَلَّ الحُوتُ مِنَ المِكْتَلِ فَاتَّخَذَ سَبِيلَهُ فِي البَحْرِ سَرَبًا، وَكَانَ لِمُوسَى وَفَتَاهُ عَجَبًا، فَانْطَلَقَا بَقِيَّةَ لَيْلَتِهِمَا وَيَوْمَهُمَا، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ مُوسَى لِفَتَاهُ: آتِنَا غَدَاءَنَا، لَقَدْ لَقِينَا مِنْ سَفَرِنَا هَذَا نَصَبًا، وَلَمْ يَجِدْ مُوسَى مَسًّا مِنَ النَّصَبِ حَتَّى جَاوَزَ المَكَانَ الَّذِي أُمِرَ بِهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ فَتَاهُ: (أَرَأَيْتَ إِذْ أَوَيْنَا إِلَى الصَّخْرَةِ فَإِنِّي نَسِيتُ الحُوتَ وَمَا أَنْسَانِيهِ إِلَّا الشَّيْطَانُ) قَالَ مُوسَى: (ذَلِكَ مَا كُنَّا نَبْغِي فَارْتَدَّا عَلَى آثَارِهِمَا قَصَصًا) فَلَمَّا انْتَهَيَا إِلَى الصَّخْرَةِ، إِذَا رَجُلٌ مُسَجًّى بِثَوْبٍ، أَوْ قَالَ تَسَجَّى بِثَوْبِهِ، فَسَلَّمَ مُوسَى، فَقَالَ الخَضِرُ: وَأَنَّى بِأَرْضِكَ السَّلاَمُ؟ فَقَالَ: أَنَا مُوسَى، فَقَالَ: مُوسَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: هَلْ أَتَّبِعُكَ عَلَى أَنْ تُعَلِّمَنِي مِمَّا عُلِّمْتَ رَشَدًا قَالَ: إِنَّكَ لَنْ تَسْتَطِيعَ مَعِيَ صَبْرًا، يَا مُوسَى إِنِّي عَلَى عِلْمٍ مِنْ عِلْمِ اللَّهِ عَلَّمَنِيهِ لاَ تَعْلَمُهُ أَنْتَ، وَأَنْتَ عَلَى عِلْمٍ عَلَّمَكَهُ لاَ أَعْلَمُهُ، قَالَ: سَتَجِدُنِي إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ صَابِرًا، وَلاَ أَعْصِي لَكَ أَمْرًا، فَانْطَلَقَا يَمْشِيَانِ عَلَى سَاحِلِ البَحْرِ، لَيْسَ لَهُمَا سَفِينَةٌ، فَمَرَّتْ بِهِمَا سَفِينَةٌ، فَكَلَّمُوهُمْ أَنْ يَحْمِلُوهُمَا، فَعُرِفَ الخَضِرُ فَحَمَلُوهُمَا بِغَيْرِ نَوْلٍ، فَجَاءَ عُصْفُورٌ، فَوَقَعَ عَلَى حَرْفِ السَّفِينَةِ، فَنَقَرَ نَقْرَةً أَوْ نَقْرَتَيْنِ فِي البَحْرِ، فَقَالَ الخَضِرُ: يَا مُوسَى مَا نَقَصَ عِلْمِي وَعِلْمُكَ مِنْ عِلْمِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا كَنَقْرَةِ هَذَا العُصْفُورِ فِي البَحْرِ، فَعَمَدَ الخَضِرُ إِلَى لَوْحٍ مِنْ أَلْوَاحِ السَّفِينَةِ، فَنَزَعَهُ، فَقَالَ مُوسَى: قَوْمٌ حَمَلُونَا بِغَيْرِ نَوْلٍ عَمَدْتَ إِلَى سَفِينَتِهِمْ فَخَرَقْتَهَا لِتُغْرِقَ أَهْلَهَا؟ قَالَ: أَلَمْ أَقُلْ إِنَّكَ لَنْ تَسْتَطِيعَ مَعِيَ صَبْرًا؟ قَالَ: لاَ تُؤَاخِذْنِي بِمَا نَسِيتُ وَلاَ تُرْهِقْنِي مِنْ أَمْرِي عُسْرًا - فَكَانَتِ الأُولَى مِنْ مُوسَى نِسْيَانًا -، فَانْطَلَقَا، فَإِذَا غُلاَمٌ يَلْعَبُ مَعَ الغِلْمَانِ، فَأَخَذَ الخَضِرُ بِرَأْسِهِ مِنْ أَعْلاَهُ فَاقْتَلَعَ رَأْسَهُ بِيَدِهِ، فَقَالَ مُوسَى: أَقَتَلْتَ نَفْسًا زَكِيَّةً بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ؟ قَالَ: أَلَمْ أَقُلْ لَكَ إِنَّكَ لَنْ تَسْتَطِيعَ مَعِيَ صَبْرًا؟ - قَالَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ: وَهَذَا أَوْكَدُ - فَانْطَلَقَا، حَتَّى إِذَا أَتَيَا أَهْلَ قَرْيَةٍ اسْتَطْعَمَا أَهْلَهَا، فَأَبَوْا أَنْ يُضَيِّفُوهُمَا، فَوَجَدَا فِيهَا جِدَارًا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَنْقَضَّ فَأَقَامَهُ، قَالَ الخَضِرُ: بِيَدِهِ فَأَقَامَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ مُوسَى: لَوْ شِئْتَ لاَتَّخَذْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا، قَالَ: هَذَا فِرَاقُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنِكَ " قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ مُوسَى، لَوَدِدْنَا لَوْ صَبَرَ حَتَّى يُقَصَّ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ أَمْرِهِمَا»

123. Narrated Abū Mūsā رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked, "O Allāh's Messenger! What kind of fighting is in Allāh's Cause? (I ask this), for some of us fight because of being enraged and angry and some for the sake of their pride and haughtiness." The Prophet ﷺ raised his head (as the questioner was standing) and said, "He who fights that Allāh's Word (i.e. Allāh's Religion of Islāmic Monotheism) should be superior, fights in Allāh's Cause."

124. Narrated 'Abdūllāh bin 'Amr رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: I saw the Prophet ﷺ near the Jamra and the people were asking him questions (about religious problems). A man asked, "O Allāh's Messenger! I have slaughtered the Hady (sacrificial animal) before doing the Ramy." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Do the Ramy (now) and there is no harm." Another person asked, "O Allāh's Messenger! I got my head shaved before slaughtering the animal." The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Do the slaughtering (now) and there is no harm." So on that day, when the Prophet ﷺ was asked about anything as regards the ceremonies of Hajj performed before or after its due time his reply was, "Do it (now) and there is no harm."

125. Narrated 'Abdullāh (bin Ma'sūd) While I was walking along with the Prophet ﷺ through the ruins of Al-Maḏīna and he was reclining on a date-palm leaf stalk, some Jews passed by. Some of them said to the others: "Ask him (the Prophet ﷺ) about the Rūh (the spirit)." Some of them said that they should not ask him that question as he might give a reply which would displease them. But some of them insisted on asking, and so one of them stood up and asked, "O Abūl-Qāsim! What is the Rūh?" The Prophet ﷺ remained quiet. I thought he was being inspired Divinely. So I stayed till that state of the Prophet (while being inspired) was over. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "And they ask you (O Muḥammad ﷺ) concerning the Rūh (the Spirit); Say: Rūh (the spirit) is one of the things, the knowledge of which is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you (mankind) have been given only a little." (V.17:85)

126. Narrated Aswad: Ibn Az-Zubair said to me, "‘Aishah رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا used to tell you secretly a number of things. What did she told you about the Ka’bah?" I replied, "She told me that once the Prophet ﷺ said, 'O ‘Aishah! Had not your people been still close to the Pre-Islāmic Period of Ignorance (infidelity), I would have dismantled the Ka’bah and would have made two doors in it; one for entrance and the other for exit.'" Later on Ibn Az-Zubair did the same.

133 - حَدَّثَنِي قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعٌ، مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا، قَامَ فِي المَسْجِدِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، مِنْ أَيْنَ تَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ نُهِلَّ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يُهِلُّ أَهْلُ المَدِينَةِ مِنْ ذِي الحُلَيْفَةِ، وَيُهِلُّ أَهْلُ الشَّأْمِ مِنَ الجُحْفَةِ، وَيُهِلُّ أَهْلُ نَجْدٍ مِنْ قَرْنٍ» وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَيَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «وَيُهِلُّ أَهْلُ اليَمَنِ مِنْ يَلَمْلَمَ» وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ: لَمْ أَفْقَهْ هَذِهِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

English translation

134. Narrated Ibn 'Umar رضي الله عنهما: A man asked the Prophet ﷺ: "What (kinds of clothes) should a Muḥrim (a Muslim intending to perform 'Umra or Hajj) wear?" He replied, "He should not wear a shirt, a turban, trousers, a headcloak or a garment scented with saffron or Wars (kinds of perfumes). And if he has no slippers, then he can use Khuff (leather socks) but the socks should be cut short so as to make the ankles bare." (See Hadīth No.1542, Vol.2).

134 - حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَهُ: مَا يَلْبَسُ المُحْرِمُ؟ فَقَالَ: «لاَ يَلْبَسُ القَمِيصَ، وَلاَ العِمَامَةَ، وَلاَ السَّرَاوِيلَ، وَلاَ البُرْنُسَ، وَلاَ ثَوْبًا مَسَّهُ الوَرْسُ أَوِ الزَّعْفَرَانُ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدِ النَّعْلَيْنِ فَلْيَلْبَسِ الخُفَّيْنِ، وَلْيَقْطَعْهُمَا حَتَّى يَكُونَا تَحْتَ الكَعْبَيْنِ»
