English translation

6227. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Allāh created Ādam in His Image(1) sixty cubits (about 30 metres) in height. When He created him, He said (to him), 'Go and greet that group of angels sitting there, and listen what they will say in reply to you, for that will be your greeting and the greeting of your offspring.' Ādam (went and) said 'As-Salāmu 'alaikum (peace be upon you).' They replied 'As-Salāmu- 'alaika wa Rahmatullāh (peace and Allāh's Mercy be on you).' So they increased 'Wa Rahmatullāh.'" The Prophet ﷺ added, "So, whoever will enter Paradise, will be of the shape and picture of Ādam. Since then the creation of Adam's (offspring) (i.e., stature of human beings) is being diminished continuously up to the present time."

6227 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " خَلَقَ اللَّهُ آدَمَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ، طُولُهُ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعًا، فَلَمَّا خَلَقَهُ قَالَ: اذْهَبْ فَسَلِّمْ عَلَى أُولَئِكَ، النَّفَرِ مِنَ المَلاَئِكَةِ، جُلُوسٌ، فَاسْتَمِعْ مَا يُحَيُّونَكَ، فَإِنَّهَا تَحِيَّتُكَ وَتَحِيَّةُ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ، فَقَالَ: السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ، فَقَالُوا: السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ، فَزَادُوهُ: وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ، فَكُلُّ مَنْ يَدْخُلُ الجَنَّةَ عَلَى صُورَةِ آدَمَ، فَلَمْ يَزَلِ الخَلْقُ يَنْقُصُ بَعْدُ حَتَّى الآنَ "

6228. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin 'Abbās رضي الله عنها: Al-Faḍl bin 'Abbās rode behind Allāh's Messenger ﷺ as his companion rider on the back portion of his she-camel on the day of Nahr (slaughtering of sacrifice, 10th Dhul-Hijja) and Al-Faḍl was a handsome man. The Prophet ﷺ stopped to give the people verdicts (regarding their matters). In the meantime, a beautiful woman from the tribe of Khath'am came, asking the verdict of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. Al-Faḍl started looking at her as her beauty attracted him. The Prophet ﷺ looked behind while Al-Faḍl was looking at her; so the Prophet ﷺ held out his hand backwards and caught the chin of Al-Faḍl and turned his face (to the other side) in order that he should not gaze at her. She said, "O Allāh's Messenger! The obligation of performing Hajj enjoined by Allāh on His worshippers has become due (compulsory) on my father who is an old man and who cannot sit firmly on the riding animal. Will it be sufficient that I perform Hajj on his behalf?" He said, "Yes." [See Vol. 2, Hadīth No. 1513]

English translation

6229. Narrated Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Beware! Avoid sitting on the roads." They (the people) said, "O Allāh's Messenger! We can't help sitting (on the roads) as these are (our places) where we have talks." The Prophet ﷺ said, "If you refuse but to sit, then pay the road its right." They asked, "What is the right of the road, O Allāh's Messenger?" He said, "Lowering your gaze, refraining from harming others, returning greetings and enjoining what is Al-Ma'rūf (Islāmic Monotheism and all that which Islām orders one to do), and forbidding what is Al-Munkar (disbelief, polytheism of all kinds and every evil deed)."

English translation

6230. Narrated 'Abdullāh (bin Mas'ūd) رضي الله عنه: Whenever we offered Ṣalāt (prayer) with the Prophet ﷺ, we used to say : As-Salām be on Allāh from His worshippers, As-Salām be on Jibrīl (Gabriel), As-Salām be on Mikāel (Michael), As-Salām be on so-and-so. When the Prophet ﷺ finished his Ṣalāt (prayer), he faced us and said, "Allāh Himself is As-Salām (Peace), so when one sits in the Ṣalāt (prayer) (sitting posture for At-Taḥiyāt), one should say, 'At-Taḥiyātullāhi waṣ-ṣalawātu, waṭ-taiyibātu. As-salāmu 'alaika aiyuhan-Nabīyyu wa raḥmatu-llāhi wa barakātuhu. As-Salāmu 'alainā wa 'alā ibādillah-iṣ-ṣāliḥin,(1) for if he says that, it will be for all the pious slaves of Allāh in the heavens and the earth. (Then he should say), 'Ash-hadu an lā ilāha illallāhu wa ash-hadu anna Muḥammadan 'abduhū wa Rasūluhu,'(2) and then he can choose whatever speech (i.e., invocation) he wishes." [See Vol. 1, Hadīth No. 835]

English translation

6238. Narrated Anas bin Mālik that he was a boy of ten at the time when the Prophet ﷺ emigrated to Al-Madīna. He added: I served Allāh's Messenger ﷺ for ten years (the last part of his lifetime) and I know more than the people about the occasion whereupon the order of Al-Hijāb was revealed (to the Prophet ﷺ). Ubayy bin Ka'b used to ask me about it. It was revealed (for the first time) during the marriage of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ with Zainab bint Jahsh. In the morning, the Prophet ﷺ was a bridegroom of her and he invited the people, who took their meals and went away, but a group of them remained with Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and they prolonged their stay. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ got up and went out, and I, too, went out along with him till he came to the lintel of 'Aisha's dwelling place. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ thought that those people had left by then, so he returned, and I, too, returned with him till he entered upon Zainab and found that they were still sitting there and had not yet gone. The Prophet ﷺ went out again, and so did I with him till he reached the lintel of 'Aisha's dwelling place, and then he thought that those people must have left by then, so he returned, and so did I with him, and found those people had gone. At that time the Divine Verse of Al-Hijab was revealed, and the Prophet ﷺ set a screen between me and him (his family).

6238 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ: أَنَّهُ كَانَ ابْنَ عَشْرِ سِنِينَ، مَقْدَمَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ المَدِينَةَ، فَخَدَمْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَشْرًا حَيَاتَهُ، وَكُنْتُ أَعْلَمَ النَّاسِ بِشَأْنِ الحِجَابِ حِينَ أُنْزِلَ، وَقَدْ كَانَ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ يَسْأَلُنِي عَنْهُ، وَكَانَ أَوَّلَ مَا نَزَلَ فِي مُبْتَنَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِزَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ، «أَصْبَحَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهَا عَرُوسًا، فَدَعَا القَوْمَ فَأَصَابُوا مِنَ الطَّعَامِ ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا، وَبَقِيَ مِنْهُمْ رَهْطٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَطَالُوا المُكْثَ، فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَخَرَجَ وَخَرَجْتُ مَعَهُ كَيْ يَخْرُجُوا، فَمَشَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَشَيْتُ مَعَهُ، حَتَّى جَاءَ عَتَبَةَ حُجْرَةِ عَائِشَةَ، ثُمَّ ظَنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُمْ خَرَجُوا، فَرَجَعَ وَرَجَعْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى دَخَلَ عَلَى زَيْنَبَ، فَإِذَا هُمْ جُلُوسٌ لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقُوا، فَرَجَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَجَعْتُ مَعَهُ، حَتَّى بَلَغَ عَتَبَةَ حُجْرَةِ عَائِشَةَ، فَظَنَّ أَنْ قَدْ خَرَجُوا، فَرَجَعَ وَرَجَعْتُ مَعَهُ، فَإِذَا هُمْ قَدْ خَرَجُوا، فَأُنْزِلَ آيَةُ الحِجَابِ، فَضَرَبَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ سِتْرًا»

English translation

6239. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: When the Prophet ﷺ married Zainab, the people came (to greet) and were offered a meal, and then they sat down (after finishing their meals) and started chatting. The Prophet ﷺ showed as if he wanted to get up, but they did not get up. When he noticed that, he got up, and some of the people also got up and went away, while some others kept on sitting. When the Prophet ﷺ returned to enter, he found the people still sitting, but then they got up and left. So I told the Prophet ﷺ of their departure and he came and went in. I intended to go in but the Prophet ﷺ put a screen between me and him, for Allāh revealed: “O you who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses...” (V.33:53)

6239 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ أَبِي: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مِجْلَزٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: " لَمَّا تَزَوَّجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَيْنَبَ، دَخَلَ القَوْمُ فَطَعِمُوا، ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ، فَأَخَذَ كَأَنَّهُ يَتَهَيَّأُ لِلْقِيَامِ فَلَمْ يَقُومُوا، فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَامَ، فَلَمَّا قَامَ قَامَ مَنْ قَامَ مِنَ القَوْمِ وَقَعَدَ بَقِيَّةُ القَوْمِ، وَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَاءَ لِيَدْخُلَ، فَإِذَا القَوْمُ جُلُوسٌ، ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ قَامُوا فَانْطَلَقُوا، فَأَخْبَرْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَاءَ حَتَّى دَخَلَ، فَذَهَبْتُ أَدْخُلُ فَأَلْقَى الحِجَابَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ، وَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَدْخُلُوا بُيُوتَ النَّبِيِّ} [الأحزاب: 53] الآيَةَ " قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: " فِيهِ مِنَ الفِقْهِ: أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَسْتَأْذِنْهُمْ حِينَ قَامَ وَخَرَجَ، وَفِيهِ: أَنَّهُ تَهَيَّأَ لِلْقِيَامِ وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَقُومُوا "

6240. Narrated 'Aishah رضي الله عنها the wife of the Prophet ﷺ: 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb used to say to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, "Let your wives be veiled." But Allāh's Messenger did not do so. The wives of the Prophet ﷺ used to go out to answer the call of nature at night only at Al-Manāṣī'. Once Sauda, the daughter of Zam'a, went out and she was a tall woman. 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb saw her while he was in a gathering, and said, "I have recognized you, O Sauda!" He ('Umar) said so as he was anxious for some Divine Orders regarding the Hijāb (the veiling of women). So Allāh عزَّ وجلَّ revealed the Verse of Al-Hijāb (a complete body cover excluding the eyes). [See Vol. 1, Hadīth No. 146]

6241. Narrated Sahl bin Sa'd رضي الله عنه: A man peeped through a round hole into the dwelling place of the Prophet ﷺ while the Prophet ﷺ had a Midra (an iron comb) with which he was scratching his head. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Had I known you were looking (through the hole), I would have pierced your eye with it (i.e., the comb)." Verily! The order of taking permission to enter has been enjoined because of that sight (that one should not look unlawfully at the state of others). [See Vol. 7, Hadīth No. 5924]

The adultery of the eyes is the sight (to gaze at a forbidden thing), the adultery of the tongue is the (forbidden, sinful) talk, and the innerself wishes and desires; and the private parts testify all this or deny it."

(When 'Umar came to know about it) he said to Abū Mūsā, "Why did you not enter?" Abū Mūsā replied, "I asked permission three times, and I was not given permission, so I returned, for Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, 'If anyone of you ask permission to enter thrice, and permission is not given, then he should return.'" 'Umar said, "By Allāh! We will ask Abū Mūsā to bring witnesses for it." (Abū Mūsā went to a gathering of the Anṣār and said), "Did anyone of you hear this from the Prophet ﷺ?" Ubayy bin Ka'b said, "By Allāh, none will go with you but the youngest of the people (as a witness)." (Abū Sa'īd) was the youngest of them, so I went with Abū Mūsā and informed 'Umar that the Prophet ﷺ had said so. [See Vol. 3, Hadith No. 2062]

She used to pull out the Silq (a kind of vegetable) from its roots and put it in a cooking pot, adding some powdered barley over it (and cook it). After finishing the Jumu'ah (Friday) Salāt (prayer) we used to (pass by her and) greet her, whereupon she would present us with that meal; we used to feel happy because of that. We used to have neither a midday nap, nor meals, except after the Friday (Salāt.)" [See Vol. 2, Hadīth No. 938]

6254. Narrated 'Urwa bin Az-Zubair رضي الله عنه and Usāma bin Zaid رضي الله عنهما said, "The Prophet ﷺ rode on a donkey with a saddle, underneath which there was a thick, soft Fadakiya velvet sheet. Usāma bin Zaid was his companion rider, and he was going to pay a visit to Sa'd bin 'Ubāda (who was sick) at the dwelling place of Banī Al-Ḥārīth bin Al-Khazraj, and this incident happened before the battle of Badr. The Prophet ﷺ passed by a mix-up gathering in which there were Muslims and polytheists, idolaters, and Jews, and among them there was 'Abdullāh bin Ubayy bin Saḥl, and there was 'Abdullāh bin Rawāḥa, too. When a cloud of dust raised by the animal covered that gathering, 'Abdullāh bin Ubayy covered his nose with his Ridā (sheet) and said (to the Prophet), 'Don't cover us with dust.' The Prophet ﷺ greeted them and then stopped, dismounted and invited them to Allāh (i.e., to embrace Islām) and also recited to them the Qur'ān. 'Abdullāh bin Ubayy bin Saṭūl said, 'O man! There is nothing better than what you say, if what you say is the truth. So do not trouble us in our gatherings. Go back to your mount (or house), and if anyone of us comes to you, relate (your tales) to him.' On that 'Abdullāh bin Rawāḥa said, '(O Allāh's Messenger!) Come to us and bring it (what you want to say) in our gatherings, for we love that.' So the Muslims, the Mushrikūn, and the Jews started quarrelling till they were about to fight and clash with one another. The Prophet ﷺ kept on quietening them (till they all became quiet). He then rode his animal, and proceeded till he entered upon Sa'd bin 'Ubāda. He said, 'O Sa'd, didn't you hear what Abū Ḥubāb said? (He meant 'Abdullāh bin Ubayy). He said so-and-so.' Sa'd bin 'Ubāda said, 'O Allāh's Messenger! Excuse and forgive him. By Allāh, Allāh has given you what He has given you. The people of this town decided to crown him (as their chief) and make him their king. But when Allāh prevented that with the Truth which He had given you, it choked him, and that was what made him behave in the way you saw him behaving.' So the Prophet ﷺ excused him." (See H. 6207)

رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ 6259. Narrated 'Alī رضي الله عنهAllāh's Messenger ﷺ sent me, Az-Zubair bin Al-'Awwām and Abū Marṭhaḍ Al-Ghanawī, andall of us were horsemen, and he said,"Proceed till you reach Rawḍat Khākhwhere there is a woman from Al-Mushrikūn[polytheists, pagans, idolaters, anddisbelievers in the Oneness of Allāh and inHis Messenger Muḥammad ﷺ]] carrying aletter sent by Hāṭib bin Abī Balta'a to Al-Mushrikūn (of Makkah)." So we overtookher while she was proceeding on her camel at the same place as Allāh's Messenger ﷺ told us. We said (to her), "Where is the letter which is with you?" She said, "I have no letter with me." So we made her camel kneel down and searched her mount (baggage, etc.) but could not find anything. My two companions said, "We do not see any letter." I said, "I know that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ did not tell a lie. By Allāh, if you (the lady) do not bring out the letter, I will strip you of your clothes (in search of the letter)." When she noticed that I was serious, she put her hand into the knot of her waist sheet, for she was tying a sheet round herself, and brought out the letter. So we proceeded to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ with the letter. The Prophet ﷺ said (to Hāṭib), "What made you do what you have done, O Hāṭib?" Hāṭib replied, "I have nothing except that I believe in Allāh and His Messenger, and I have not changed or altered (my religion). But I wanted to do favour to the people (Mushrikūn of Makkah) through which Allāh might protect my family and my property, as there is none among your companions but has someone in Makkah through whom Allāh protects his property (against harm)." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Hāṭib has told you the truth, so do not say to him (anything) but good." 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb said, "Verily he has betrayed Allāh, His Messenger and the believers! Allow me to chop his neck off!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "O 'Umar! What do you know, perhaps Allāh looked upon the Badr warriors and said, 'Do whatever you like, for I have ordained that you will be in Paradise.'" On that 'Umar wept and said, "Allāh and His Messenger know better."

(Tashah-hud was) all the compliments and the Salāt (prayers) and the good things are due to Allāh. Peace be on you, O Prophet; and Allāh's Mercy and Blessings be on you. Peace be on us and on the true pious slaves of Allāh, I testify that "Lā Ilāha illallāh" (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh) and I also testify that Muḥammad is His slave and His Messenger. [We used to recite this in the Salāt (prayer)] during the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ, but when he had died, we used to say, "Peace be on the Prophet ﷺ." (See H. 831)

6266. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin 'Abbās رضي الله عنهم: 'Alī bin Abī Tālīb came out of the house of the Prophet ﷺ during his fatal illness. The people asked, "O Abū Ḥasan (i.e., 'Alī)! How is the health of Allāh's Messenger this morning?" 'Alī replied, "He has recovered with the Grace of Allāh." Al-'Abbās held 'Alī by the hand and said, "Don't you see him (he is about to die)? By Allāh, within three days you will be the slave of the stick (i.e., under the command of another ruler). By Allāh, I feel that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ will die from his present ailment, for I know how the faces of the offspring of 'Abdul-Muṭṭalib look at the time of their death. So let us go to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ to ask him who will take over the caliphate. If the authority is given to us, we will know it, and if it is given to somebody else we will request him so that he may tell the new ruler to take care of us." 'Alī said, "By Allāh! If we ask Allāh's Messenger ﷺ for it (i.e., the caliphate) and he refuses, then the people will never give it to us. Besides, I will never ask Allāh's Messenger ﷺ for it."

6268. Narrated Abū Dḥar: While I was walking with the Prophet ﷺ at the Harra of Al-Madīna in the evening, the mountain of Uḥud appeared before us. The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Abū Dḥar! I would not like to have gold equal to Uḥud (mountain) for me, unless nothing of it, not even a single Dīnār remains of it with me for more than one day or three days, except that single Dīnār which I will keep for repaying debts. I will spend all of it (the whole amount) among Allāh's slaves like this and like this and like this." The Prophet ﷺ pointed out with his hand to illustrate it, and then said, "O Abū Dhar!" I replied, "Labbaik wa Sa'daik, O Allāh's Messenger!" He said, "Those who have much wealth (in this world) will be the least rewarded (in the Hereafter) except those who do like this and like this (i.e., spend their money in charity)." Then he ordered me, "Remain at your place and do not leave, O Abū Dhar, till I come back." He went away till he disappeared from my sight. Then I heard a noise and feared that something might have happened to Allāh's Messenger, and I intended to go (to find out) but I remembered the statement of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ that I should not leave my place, so I kept on waiting (and after a while the Prophet ﷺ came), and I said to him, "O Allāh's Messenger, I heard a noise and I was afraid that something might have happened to you, but then I remembered your statement and stayed (there)." The Prophet ﷺ said, "That was Jibrīl (Gabriel) who came to me and informed me that whoever among my followers died without joining others in worship with Allāh, would enter Paradise." I said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Even if he had committed illegal sexual intercourse and theft?" He said, "Even if he had committed illegal sexual intercourse and theft."

6271. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رضي الله عنه: When Allāh's Messenger ﷺ married Zainab bint Jahsh, he invited the people, who took their meals and then remained sitting and talking. The Prophet ﷺ pretended to be ready to get up, but the people did not get up. When he noticed that, he got up, and when he had got up, some of those people got up along with him and there remained three (who kept on sitting). Then the Prophet ﷺ came back and found those people still sitting. Later on those people got up and went away. So I went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him that they had left. The Prophet ﷺ came, and entered (his house). I wanted to enter (along with him) but he dropped a curtain between me and him. Allāh تعالى then revealed : “O you who believe! Enter not the Prophet’s houses, unless permission is given to you... up to ... Verily! With Allāh that shall be an enormity.” (V.33 :53)

So he sat beside Abū Ad-Dardā' who asked, "Where are you from?" He said, "From the people of Kūfa." Abū Ad-Dardā' said, "Wasn't there among you a person who keeps the secrets (of the Prophet ﷺ) which nobody knew except him (i.e., Hudhaifa bin Al-Yamān)? And isn't there among you a person whom Allāh gave refuge from Satan through the request (tongue) of Allāh's Messenger? (i.e., 'Ammār). Isn't there among you the one who used to carry the Siwāk and the cushion (or pillow) (of the Prophet ﷺ)? (i.e., Ibn Mas'ūd). How did Ibn Mas'ūd use to recite 'By the night as it conceals (the light)?' (Sūrah 92). 'Alqama said, "Wadh-dhakari wal Untha. (And by male and female.)" Abū Ad-Dardā added, "These people continued to argue with me regarding it till they were about to cause me to have doubts, although I heard it from Allāh's Messenger ﷺ."

6280. Narrated Sahl bin Sa'd: There was no name dearer to 'Alī than his nick-name Abū Turāb (the father of dust). He used to feel happy whenever he was called by this name. Once Allāh's Messenger ﷺ came to the house of Fāṭima عليها السلام but did not find 'Alī in the house. So he asked "Where is your cousin?" She replied, "There was something (a quarrel) between us whereupon he got angry with me and went out without having a midday nap in my house." Allāh's Messenger asked a person to look for him. That person came, and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! He ('Alī) is sleeping in the mosque.” Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ went there and found him lying. His Ridā (upper body cover-sheet) had fallen down to one side of his body, and so he was covered with dust. Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ started cleaning the dust from him, saying, “Get up, O Abu Turāb! Get up, Abū Turāb!” [See Vol. 1, Hadīth No. 441]

6281. Narrated Thumāma: Anas said, “Umm Sulaim used to spread a leather sheet for the Prophet ﷺ and he used to take a mid-day nap on that leather sheet at her home.” Anas added, “When the Prophet ﷺ had slept, she would take some of his sweat and hair and collect it (the sweat) in a bottle and then mix it with Suk (a kind of perfume) while he was still sleeping.” When the death of Anas bin Mālik approached, he wished in his will that some of that Suk be mixed with his Hanūl (perfume for embalming the dead body), and it was mixed with his Hanūl.

And whoever says to his friend, 'Come, let us gamble!' He should give something in charity."(1) [See Hadith No. 6650.]
