English translation

3495. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "The tribe of Quraish has precedence over the people in this connection (i.e., the right of ruling). The Muslims follow the Muslims amongst them, and the infidels follow the infidels amongst them.

Arabic text

3496 - وَالنَّاسُ مَعَادِنُ، خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الجَاهِلِيَّةِ خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الإِسْلاَمِ، إِذَا فَقِهُوا تَجِدُونَ مِنْ خَيْرِ النَّاسِ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ كَرَاهِيَةً لِهَذَا الشَّأْنِ، حَتَّى يَقَعَ فِيهِ» بَابٌ

(V.42:23) Sa'īd bin Jubair said, "(The Verse implies) the kinship of Muḥammad ﷺ." Ibn 'Abbās said, "There was not a single house (i.e., sub-tribe) of Quraish but had a kinship with the Prophet ﷺ; and so the above Verse was revealed in this connection, and its interpretation is: 'O Quraish! You should keep good relations between me (i.e., Muḥammad ﷺ) and you.'"

3498. Narrated Abū Mas'ūd رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "From this side, pointing towards the east, Al-Fitan (trials and afflictions) will appear. Rudeness and lack of mercy are characteristics of the rural bedouins who are busy with their camels and cows (and pay no attention to religion). Such are the tribes of Rabī'a and Muḍar."

English translation

3499. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: I heard Allāh's Messenger ﷺ saying, "Pride and arrogance are characteristics of the rural bedouins, while calmness is found among the owners of sheep. Belief is Yemenite, and wisdom is also Yemenite (i.e., the Yemenites are well-known for their true belief and wisdom)." Abū 'Abdullāh (Al-Bukhārī) said, "Yemen was called so because it is situated to the right of the Ka'bah, and Sham was called so because it is situated to the left of the Ka'bah."(1)

Narrated Muḥammad bin Jubair bin Muṭ'im, that while he was with a delegation from Quraish to Mu'awiya, the latter heard the news that 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr bin Al-'Aṣī said that there would be a king from the tribe of Qaḥṭān. On that Mu'awiya became angry, got up and then praised Allāh as He deserved, and said, "Now then, I have heard that some men amongst you narrate things which are neither in Allāh's Book (Qur'an), nor have been told by Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. Those men are the ignorant amongst you. Beware of such hopes as make the people go astray, for I heard Allāh's Messenger saying, 'Authority of ruling will remain with Quraish, and whoever bears hostility to them, Allāh will destroy him as long as they abide by the laws of the religion.”

3505. Narrated 'Urwa bin Az-Zubair: 'Abdullāh bin Az-Zubair was the most beloved person to 'Āishah excluding the Prophet ﷺ, and Abū Bakr, and he in his turn, was the most devoted to her. 'Āishah used not to withhold the money given to her by Allāh, but she used to spend it in charity. ('Abdullāh) bin Az-Zubair said, "'Āishah should be stopped from doing so."

Az-Zuhriyūn, the uncles of the Prophet ﷺ, including 'Abdur-Rahmān bin Al-Aswad bin 'Abd Yaghūth and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama said to him, "When we ask for the permission to visit her, enter her house along with us (without taking her leave)." He did accordingly (and she accepted their intercession). He sent her ten slaves whom she manumitted as an expiation for (not keeping) her vow. 'Āishah manumitted more slaves for the same purpose till she manumitted forty slaves. She said, "I wish I had specified what I would have done in case of not fulfilling my vow when I made the vow, so that I might have done it easily.”(1)

We are from the tribe of Rabī'a and the infidels of Muḍar tribe intervene between us and you, so that we cannot come to you except in the Sacred Months. Therefore we would like you to give us some instructions which we may follow and convey to our people staying behind us."

The Anṣārī got so angry that both of them called their people. The Anṣārī said, "Help, O Anṣārī!" And the Muhājir said, "Help, O Muhājir!" The Prophet ﷺ came out and said, "What is wrong with the people (as they are calling) this call of the (Pre-Islāmic) Period of Ignorance?" Then he said, "What is the matter with them?" He was told about the stroke of the Muhājir to the Anṣārī. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Stop this for it is an evil call." 'Abdullāh bin Ubaī bin Salūl (a hypocrite) said, "The Muhājrun have called and (gathered against us); so when we return to Al-Madīna, surely, the more honourable people will expel therefrom the meaner." Upon that 'Umar said, "O Allāh's Prophet! Shall we not kill this Khabīth (evil person i.e., Abdullāh bin Ubaī bin Salūl)?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "(No), lest the people should say that Muḥammad used to kill his companions."

3522 (A). Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: When the news of the advent of the Prophet ﷺ reached Abū Dhar, he said to his brother, "Ride to this valley and bring me the news of this man (i.e. the Prophet ﷺ) who claims to be a Prophet receiving information from the Heaven. Listen to him and then come to me.” His brother set out till he met the Prophet ﷺ and listened to his speech and returned to Abū D̄har and said to him, “I have seen him exhorting people to virtues and his speech was not like poetry.” Abū D̄har said, “You have not satisfied me as to what I wanted.” So, he took his journey-food and a water-skin full of water and set out till he reached Makkah, where he went to the mosque looking for the Prophet ﷺ, whom he did not know, and he would not like to ask someone about him. So, a portion of the night had passed when ‘Ali saw him and realised that he was a stranger. Abū D̄har followed him (to his house), but neither of them asked the other about anything till it was morning, when he carried his water-skin and food and went to the mosque. He spent that day without being observed by the Prophet ﷺ till it was night, when he returned to his sleeping place. ‘Ali again passed by him and said, “Hasn’t the man (i.e. Abū D̄har) recognised his dwelling place yet?” So, ‘Ali let him get up and took him (to his house), but neither of them asked the other about anything, till it was the third day when ‘Ali had the same experience with him and Abū D̄har again stayed with him. ‘Ali then asked, “Won’t you tell me what has brought you here?” He replied, “If you give me a promise and a convention that you will guide me, then I will tell you.” When ‘Ali did, Abū D̄har informed him (of his purpose). ‘Ali said, “It is the Truth, and he (i.e., Muhammad ﷺ) is the Messenger of Allāh. So when the morning comes, follow me, and if I should perceive any danger threatening you, I will give you a hint by pretending to go to pass water (the water closet). But if I carried on walking, follow me till you enter the place that I will enter.” Abū D̄har agreed and followed ‘Alī till he entered the place of the Prophet ﷺ. And Abū D̄har entered with him. He then listened to the speech of the Prophet ﷺ and embraced Islām on that very spot. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, “Go back to your people and inform them (of this religion) till you receive my (further) orders.” Abū D̄har said, “By Him in Whose Hands my soul is! I will proclaim my conversion to Islām publicly amongst them (i.e. infidels).” He went out till he reached the mosque and announced as loudly as possible: “I testify that Lā ilāha illallāh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh) and that Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh.” The people then got up and beat him till they knocked him down. Al-Abbās came and threw himself over him (to protect him) saying, “Woe to you! Don’t you know that he is from Ghifār and there is the route (road) to your merchants towards Sham (i.e. through the place where this tribe dwells)?” Thus he saved him from them.

3570. Narrated Sharīk bin 'Abdullāh bin Abī Namr: I heard Anas bin Mālik telling us about the night [journey to the heavens (Al-Isra' and Al-Mi'raj)] when the Prophet ﷺ was made to travel from the Ka'bah Mosque (Al-Masjid-al-Ḥarām). Three persons (i.e., angels) came to the Prophet ﷺ before he was divinely inspired (as a Messenger), while he was sleeping in Al-Masjid-al-Ḥarām. The first (of the three angels) said, "Which of them is he?"(1) The second said, "He is the best of them." The last of them said, "Take the best one." That was all that happened then, and he did not see them till they came at another night and he perceived their presence with his heart, for the eyes of the Prophet ﷺ were closed when he was asleep, but his heart was not asleep. This is characteristic of all the Prophets: Their eyes sleep but their hearts do not sleep. Then Jibrīl (Gabriel) took charge of the Prophet ﷺ and ascended along with him to the heaven. (See H. 3207, 3886, 3887)

3571. Narrated 'Imrān bin Ḥuṣain رضي الله عنهما that they were with the Prophet ﷺ on a journey. They travelled the whole night, and when dawn approached, they took rest and sleep overwhelmed them till the sun rose high in the sky. The first to get up was Abū Bakr. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used not to be awakened from his sleep, but he would wake up by himself. 'Umar woke up and then Abū Bakr sat by the side of the Prophet's head and started saying: "Allāhu Akbar" raising his voice till the Prophet ﷺ woke up, (and after travelling for a while) he dismounted and led us in the morning Ṣalāt (prayer). A man amongst the people failed to join us in the Ṣalāt (prayer). When the Prophet ﷺ had finished the Ṣalāt (prayer), he asked (the man), "O so-and-so! What prevented you from offering the Ṣalāt (prayer) with us?" He replied, "I am Junub." Allāh's Messenger ﷺ ordered him to perform Tayammum with clean earth. The man then offered the Ṣalāt (prayer). Allāh's Messenger ﷺ ordered me and a few others to go ahead of him. We had become very thirsty. While we were on our way (looking for water), we came across a lady (riding an animal), hanging her legs between two water-skins. We asked her, "Where can we get water?" She replied, "Oh! There is no water." We asked, "How far is your house from the water?" She replied, "A distance of a day and a night travel." We said, "Come on to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ." She asked, "What is Allāh's Messenger ﷺ?" So we brought her to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ against her will, and she told him what she had told us before and added that she was the mother of orphans. So, the Prophet ﷺ ordered that her two water-skins be brought and he touched or rubbed the mouths of the water-skins (with his hand). As we were thirsty, we drank till we quenched our thirst and we were forty men. We also filled all our water-skins and other utensils with water, but we did not water the camels. The water-skin was so full that it was almost about to burst. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Bring what (foodstuff) you have." So, some dates and pieces of bread were collected for the lady, and when she went to her people, she said, "I have met either the greatest magician or a Prophet as the people claim." So, Allāh guided the people of that village through that lady. She embraced Islām and they all embraced Islām. [See Vol. 1, Hadīth No. 344]

3574. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ went out on one of his journeys with some of his companions. They went on travelling till the time of the Salāt (prayer) became due. They could not find water to perform the ablution. One of them went away and brought a little amount of water in a pot. The Prophet ﷺ took it and performed the ablution, and then stretched his four fingers on to the pot and said (to the people), "Get up to perform the ablution." They started performing the ablution till all of them performed the ablution, and they were nearly seventy or so.

3575. Narrated Ĥumaid: Anas bin Mālik رضي الله عنه said, "Once the time of the Salāt (prayer) became due and the people whose houses were close to the mosque went to their houses to perform ablution, while the others remained (sitting there). A stone pot containing water was brought to the Prophet ﷺ, who wanted to put his hand in it, but it was too small for him to spread his hand in it, and so he had to bring his fingers together before putting his hand in the pot. Then all the people performed the ablution (with that water)." I asked Anas, "How many persons were they." He replied, "There were eighty men."

3576. Narrated Sālim bin Abī Al-Ja'd: Jābir bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنهما said, "The people became very thirsty on the day of Al-Hudaibiya (Treaty). A small pot containing some water was in front of the Prophet ﷺ and when he had finished the ablution, the people rushed towards him. He asked, 'What is wrong with you?' They replied, 'We have no water either for performing ablution or for drinking except what is present in front of you.' So, he placed his hand in that pot and the water started flowing among his fingers like springs. We all drank and performed ablution (from it)." I asked Jābir, "How many were you?" He replied, "Even if we had been one hundred thousand, it would have been sufficient for us, but we were fifteen hundred."

We drew out its water not leaving even a single drop. The Prophet ﷺ sat at the edge of the well and asked for some water with which he rinsed his mouth, and then he threw it out into the well. We stayed for a short while and then drew water from the well and quenched our thirst, and even our riding animals drank water to their satisfaction.

3578. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رضي الله عنه: Abū Ṭalha said to Umm Sulaim, "I have noticed feebleness in the voice of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ which I think, is caused by hunger. Have you got any food?" She said, "Yes." She brought out some loaves of barley and took out a veil belonging to her, and wrapped the bread in part of it and put it under my arm and wrapped part of the veil round me and sent me to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. I went carrying it and found Allāh's Messenger ﷺ in the mosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Allāh's Messenger ﷺ asked, "Has Abū Talha sent you?" I said, "Yes". He asked, "With some food?" I said, "Yes" Allāh's Messenger ﷺ then said to the men around him, "Get up!" He set out (accompanied by them) and I went ahead of them till I reached Abū Talha and told him (of the Prophet's visit). Abū Talha said, "O Umm Sulaim! Allāh's Messenger ﷺ is coming with the people and we have no food to feed them." She said, "Allāh and His Messenger know better." So, Abū Talha went out to receive Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ came along with Abū Talha. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "O Umm Sulaim! Bring whatever you have." She brought the bread which Allāh's Messenger ﷺ ordered to be broken into pieces. Umm Sulaim poured on them some butter from an oil-skin. Then Allāh's Messenger ﷺ recited what Allāh wished him to recite, and then said, "Let ten persons come (to share the meal)." Ten persons were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he again said, "Let another ten do the same." They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he again said, "Let another ten persons (do the same.)" They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he said, "Let another ten persons come." In short, all of them ate their fill, and they were seventy or eighty men.

3579. Narrated 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه: We used to consider miracles as Allāh's Blessings, but you people consider them to be a warning. Once, we were with Allāh's Messenger ﷺ on a journey, and we ran short of water. He said, "Bring the water remaining with you." The people brought a utensil containing a little water. He placed his hand in it and said, "Come to the blessed water, and the Blessing is from Allāh." I saw the water flowing from among the fingers of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, and no doubt, we used to hear the meals (food) glorifying Allāh, when it was being eaten (by him).

3580. Narrated Jābir رضي الله عنه: My father had died in debt. So, I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "My father (died) leaving unpaid debts, and I have nothing except the yield of his date-palms; and their yield for many years will not cover his debts. So, please come with me, so that the creditors may not misbehave with me." The Prophet ﷺ went round one of the heaps of dates and invoked (Allāh), and then did the same with another heap and sat on it and said, "Measure (for them)." He paid them their rights and what remained was as much as had been paid to them.

3581. Narrated 'Abdur-Rahmān bin Abī Bakr رضي الله عنهما: The companions of Suffa were poor people. The Prophet ﷺ once said, "Whoever has food enough for two persons, should take a third one (from among them), and whoever has food enough for four persons, should take a fifth or a sixth (or said something similar)." Abū Bakr brought three persons while the Prophet ﷺ took ten. And Abū Bakr with his three family member (who were I, my father and my mother) (the subnarrator is in doubt whether 'Abdur-Rahmān said, "My wife and my servant who was common for both my house and Abū Bakr's house."). Abū Bakr took his supper with the Prophet ﷺ and stayed there till he offered the 'Ishā prayer. He returned and stayed till Allāh's Messenger ﷺ took his supper. After a part of the night had passed, he returned to his house. His wife said to him, "What has detained you from your guests?" He said, "Have you served supper to them?" She said, "They refused (to take supper) until you come. They (i.e., some members of the household) presented the meal to them but they refused (to eat)". I went to hide myself and he said, "O Ghunthar [ignorant (boy)]!" He invoked Allāh to cause my ears to be cut and he rebuked me. He then said (to them): "Please eat!" and added, "I will never eat the meal." By Allāh, whenever we took a handful of the meal, the meal grew more underneath than that handful till everybody ate to his satisfaction; yet the remaining food was more than the original meal. Abū Bakr saw that the food was as much or more than the original amount. He called his wife, "O sister of Banī Firās!" She said, "O pleasure of my eyes. The food has been tripled in quantity than it was before." Abū Bakr then started eating thereof and said, "It (i.e., my oath not to eat) was because of Satan." He took a handful from it, and carried the rest to the Prophet ﷺ. So, that food was with the Prophet ﷺ. There was a treaty between us and some people, and when the period of that treaty had elapsed, he divided us into twelve groups, each being headed by a man. Allāh knows how many men were under the command of each leader. Anyhow, the Prophet ﷺ surely sent a leader with each group. Then all of them ate of that meal. [See Vol. 8, Hadīth No.6141]

3582. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: Once during the lifetime of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, the people of Al-Madīna suffered from drought. So, while the Prophet ﷺ was delivering Khutba (religious talk) on a Friday, a man got up saying, "O Allāh's Messenger! The horses and sheep have perished. Will you invoke Allāh to bless us with rain?" The Prophet ﷺ lifted both his hands and invoked (Allāh). The sky at that time was as clear as glass. Suddenly a wind blew, raising clouds that gathered together, and it started raining heavily. We came out (of the mosque) wading through the flowing water till we reached our homes. It went on raining till the next Friday, when the same man or some other man stood up and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! The houses have collapsed; please invoke Allāh to withhold the rain." On that the Prophet ﷺ smiled and said, "O Allāh, (let it rain) around us and not on us." I then looked at the clouds to see them separating, forming a sort of a crown round Al-Madīna. (See H. 933)

Shall we make a pulpit for you?" He replied, "If you wish." So they made a pulpit for him and when it was Friday, he proceeded towards the pulpit [for delivering the Khutba (religious talk)]. The date-palm cried like a child! The Prophet ﷺ descended (from the pulpit) and embraced it while it continued moaning like a child being quietened. The Prophet ﷺ said, "It was crying for (missing) what it used to hear of religious knowledge given near it."

Hudhaifa replied, "I remember what he said exactly." 'Umar said, "Tell (us), you are really a daring man!" Hudhaifa said, "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, 'A man's Al-Fitnah (trial or afflictions) (i.e., wrong deeds) concerning his relation to his family, his property and his neighbours are expiated by his Salāt (prayer), Aṣ-Ṣadaqa (giving in charity) and enjoining Al-Ma'rūf (Islāmic Monotheism and all that Islām ordains) forbidding Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islām forbids).” ‘Umar said, “I don’t mean these but the Al-Fitnah that will be heaving up and down like waves of the sea.” Hudhaifa replied, “O chief of the believers! You need not fear that as there is a closed door between you and it.” ‘Umar asked, “Will that door be opened or broken?” Hudhaifa replied, “No, it will be broken.” ‘Umar said, “Then it is very likely that the door will not be closed again.” Later on the people asked Hudhaifa, “Did ‘Umar know what that door meant?” He said, “Yes, ‘Umar knew it as everyone knows that there will be night before tomorrow morning. I narrated to ‘Umar an authentic narration, not lies.” We dared not ask Hudhaifa; therefore we requested Masrūq who asked him, “What does the door stand for?” He said, “‘Umar.”

Then another man came and complained of robbery. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Adī! Have you been to Al-Hira?" I said, "I haven't been to it, but I was informed about it." He said, “If you should live for a long time, you will certainly see that a lady in a Howdaj travelling from Al-Hira will (safely reach Makkah and) perform the Tawāf of the Ka’bah, fearing none but Allāh.” I said to myself, “What will happen to the robbers of the tribe of Tai who have spread evil through out the country?” The Prophet ﷺ further said, “If you should live long, the treasures of Khosrau will be opened (and taken as spoils).” I asked, “You mean Khosrau, son of Hurmuz?” He said, “Khosrau, son of Hurmuz; and if you should live long, you will see that one will carry a handful of gold or silver and go out looking for a person to accept it from him, but will find none to accept it from him. And each one of you, will meet Allāh, on the Day of his Meeting with Him, and there will be no translator between him and Allāh to translate for him, and Allāh will say to him: ‘Didn’t I send a Messenger to convey Our Message (of Islāmic Monotheism) to you?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’ Allāh will say: ‘Didn’t I give you wealth and preferred you with favours?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’ Then he will look to his right and see nothing but Hell, and look to his left and see nothing but Hell.” ‘Adi further said: I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, “Save yourself from the (Hell) Fire even with half a date (to be given in charity) and if you do not find a half date, then with a good pleasant word.” ‘Adi added: (Later on) I saw a lady in a Howdaj travelling from Al-Hira till she performed the Tawāf of the Ka’bah, fearing none but Allāh. And I was one of those who opened (conquered) the treasures of Khosrau, son of Hurmuz.

Allow me to chop his head off." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Leave him, for he has companions who offer Ṣalāt (prayer) in such a way that you will consider your Salāt (prayer) negligible in comparison to theirs and observe Saum (fast) in such a way that you will consider your fasting (negligible in comparison) to theirs. They recite the Qur'ān but it does not go beyond their throats (i.e., they do not act on it) and they will desert Islām as an arrow goes out through a victim's body, so that the hunter, on looking at the arrow's blade, would see nothing on it; he would look at its Rišāf and see nothing: he would look at its Nādī and see nothing, and he would look at its Qudhādh(1) and see nothing (neither flesh nor blood), for the arrow has been too fast even for the blood and excretions to smear. The sign by which they will be recognized is that among them there will be a black man, one of whose arms will resemble a woman's breast or a lump of meat moving loosely. Those people will appear when there will be differences amongst the people." Abū Sa'īd added: I testify that I heard this narration from Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, and I testify that 'Ali bin Abī Tālib fought with such people,(2) and I was in his company. He ordered that the man (described by the Prophet ﷺ) should be looked for. The man was brought and I looked at him and noticed that he looked exactly as the Prophet ﷺ had described him.

3611. Narrated 'Ali رضي الله عنه: I relate the narrations of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ to you for I would rather fall from the sky than attribute something to him falsely. But when I tell you a thing which is between you and me, then no doubt, war is guile. I heard Allāh's Messenger ﷺ saying, "In the last days of this world there will appear some young foolish people who will use (in their claim) the best speech of all people (i.e., the Qur'an) and they will abandon Islām as an arrow going out through the game. Their belief will not go beyond their throats (i.e., they will have practically no belief), so wherever you meet them, kill them, for he who kills them shall get a reward on the Day of Resurrection."

3612. Narrated Khabbāb bin Al-Aratt: We complained to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ (of the persecution inflicted on us by the infidels) while he was sitting in the shade of the Ka'bah, leaning over his Burd (i.e., covering sheet). We said to him, "Would you seek help for us? Would you pray to Allāh for us?" He said, "Among the nations before you a (believing) man would be put in a ditch that was dug for him, and a saw would be put over his head and he would be cut into two pieces; yet that (torture) would not make him give up his religion. His body would be combed with iron combs that would remove his flesh from the bones or nerves, yet that would not make him abandon his religion. By Allāh, this religion (i.e., Islām) will prevail till a traveller from Ṣan'ā (in Yemen) to Ḥaḍramaut will fear none but Allāh, (not fear) a wolf as regards his sheep, but you (people) are hasty."

3613. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: The Prophet ﷺ noticed the absence of Thābit bin Qais. A man said, "O Allāh's Messenger! I shall bring you his news." So, he went to him and saw him sitting in his house drooping his head (sadly). He asked Thābit, "What's the matter?" Thābit replied, "An evil situation: A man used to raise his voice over the voice of the Prophet ﷺ and so all his good deeds have been annulled and he is from the people of Hell."(1) The man went back and told the Prophet ﷺ that Thābit had said so-and-so. (The subnarrator, Mūsā bin Anas said, "The man went to Thābit again with glad tidings.") The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Go and say to Thābit: 'You are not from the people of Fire, but from the people of Paradise.'"

The man finished his Salāt (prayer) with Taslim, but behold! A mist or a cloud hovered over him. He informed the Prophet ﷺ of that and the Prophet ﷺ said, "O so-and-so! Recite, for this (mist or cloud) was As-Sakina (tranquillity—a sign of peace and reassurance along with angels) descended because of the recitation of the Qur'an." (See H. 5011)

3615. Narrated Al-Barā' bin 'Āzib: Abū Bakr رضي الله عنه came to my father who was at home and purchased a saddle from him. He said to 'Āzib, "Tell your son to carry it with me." So I carried it with him and my father followed us so as to take the price (of the saddle). My father said, "O Abū Bakr! Tell me what happened to you on your journey with Allāh's Messenger ﷺ (during emigration)." He said, "Yes, we travelled the whole night and also the next day till midday, when nobody could be seen on the way (because of the severe heat). Then there appeared a long rock having shade beneath it, and the sunshine had not come to it yet. So, we dismounted there and I levelled a place and covered it with an animal hide or dry grass for the Prophet ﷺ to sleep on (for a while). I then said, 'Sleep, O Allāh's Messenger, and I will guard you.' So, he slept and I went out to guard him. Suddenly, I saw a shepherd coming with his sheep to that rock with the same intention we had had. When he came to it, I asked (him), 'To whom do you belong, O boy?' He replied, 'I belong to a man from Al-Madina or Makkah.' I said, 'Do your sheep have milk?' He said, 'Yes.' I said, 'Will you milk them for us?' He said, 'Yes.' He caught hold of an ewe and I asked him to clean its teat from dust, hair and dirt. (The subnarrator said that he saw Al-Barā' striking one of his hands with the other, demonstrating how the shepherd removed the dust.) The shepherd milked a little milk in a wooden container and I had a leather container which I carried for the Prophet ﷺ to drink and perform the ablution from it. I went to the Prophet ﷺ hating to wake him up, but when I reached there, the Prophet ﷺ had already woken up, so I poured water over the middle part of the milk container, till the milk was cold. Then I said, 'Drink, O Allāh's Messenger!' He drank till I was pleased. Then he asked, 'Has the time for our departure come?' I said, 'Yes.' So, we departed after midday. Surāqa bin Mālik followed us and I said, 'We have been discovered, O Allāh's Messenger!' He said, "Be not sad (or afraid). Surely! Allāh is with us.' The Prophet ﷺ invoked evil on him (i.e., Surāqa) and so the legs of his horse sank into the earth up to its belly. (The subnarrator, Zuhair is not sure whether Abū Bakr said, "(It sank into solid earth.)") Surāqa said, 'I see that you have invoked evil on me. Please invoke good on me, and by Allāh, I will cause those who are seeking after you to return.' The Prophet ﷺ invoked good on him and he was saved. Then, whenever he met somebody on the way, he would say, 'I have looked for him here in vain.' So, he caused whomever he met to return. Thus Surāqa fulfilled his promise."

The Prophet ﷺ when visiting a patient used to say, "No harm will befall you, if Allāh will, it will be an expiation (for your sins)." So, the Prophet ﷺ said to the bedouin, "No harm will befall you, if Allāh will, it will be an expiation (for your sins)." The bedouin said, "You say an expiation? No, it is but a fever that is boiling or harassing an old man, and will lead him to the grave." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, then may it be as you say."

3617. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: There was a Christian who embraced Islam and read Sūrat Al-Baqarah and Al-Imran, and he used to write (the revelation) for the Prophet ﷺ. Later on he reverted to Christianity again, and he used to say: "Muḥammad (ﷺ) knows nothing but what I have written for him." Then Allāh caused him to die, and the people buried him, but in the morning they saw that the earth had thrown his body out. They said, "This is the act of Muḥammad (ﷺ) and his companions. They dug the grave of our companion and took his body out of it because he had run away from them." They again dug the grave deeply for him (and buried him), but in the morning they again saw that the earth had thrown his body out. They said, "This is an act of Muḥammad (ﷺ) and his companions. They dug the grave of our companion and threw his body outside it, for he had run away from them." They dug the grave for him as deep as they could (and buried him), but in the morning they again saw that the earth had thrown his body out.

I thought that it was Al-Yamāma or Hajar, but it came to be Al-Madina i.e., Yathrib. In the same dream I saw myself moving a sword and its blade got broken. It came to symbolize the defeat which the Muslims suffered from, on the Day of Uhud. I moved the sword again, and it became normal as before, and that was the symbol of the victory Allāh bestowed upon Muslims and their gathering together. I saw cows in my dream, and by Allāh, that was a blessing, and they symbolized the believers on the Day of Uhud. And the blessing was the good Allāh bestowed upon us and the reward of true belief which Allāh gave us after the day of (the battle of) Badr.

Umaiyya said to Sa'd, "Will you wait till midday when the people are (at their homes), then you may go and perform the Tawāf round the Ka'bah?" So, while Sa'd was going around the Ka'bah, Abū Jahl came and asked, "Who is that who is performing Tawāf?" Sa'd replied, "I am Sa'd." Abū Jahl said, "Are you circumambulating the Ka'bah safely although you have given refuge to Muḥammad and his companions?" Sa'd said, "Yes," and they started quarrelling. Umaiyya said to Sa'd, "Don't shout at Abul-Ḥakam (i.e., Abū Jahl), for he is chief of the valley (of Makkah)." Sa'd then said (to Abū Jahl), "By Allāh, if you prevent me from performing the Tawāf of the Ka'bah, I will spoil your trade with Sham." Umaiyya kept on saying to Sa'd, "Don't raise your voice," and kept on taking hold of him. Sa'd became furious and said (to Umaiyya), "Keep away from me, for I have heard Muḥammad ﷺ saying that he will kill you." Umaiyya said, "Will he kill me?" Sa'd said, "Yes." Umaiyya said, "By Allāh! When Muḥammad says a thing, he never tells a lie." Umaiyya went to his wife and said to her, "Do you know what my brother from Yathrib (i.e., Al-Madīna) has said to me?" She said, "What has he said?" He said, "He claims that he has heard Muḥammad claiming that he will kill me." She said, "By Allāh! Muḥammad never tells a lie." So, when the infidels started to proceed for Badr (battle) and declared fighting (against the Muslims), his wife said to him, "Don't you remember what your brother from Yathrib told you?"
