6941. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Whoever possesses the (following) three (qualities) will have the sweetness (delight) of Faith: (1) The one to whom Allāh and His Messenger ﷺ becomes dearer than anything else; (2) Who loves a person and he loves him only for Allāh's sake; (3) Who hates to revert to atheism (disbelief) as he hates to be thrown into the (Hell) Fire." [See Vol. 1, Hadīth No. 16]

English translation

6943. Narrated Khabbāb bin Al-Arat: We complained to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ (about our state) while he was leaning against his Burda (cloak) in the shade of the Ka'bah. We said, "Will you ask Allāh to help us? Will you invoke Allāh for us?" He said, "Among those who were before you, a (believer) used to be seized and a pit used to be dug for him and then he used to be placed in it. Then a saw used to be brought and put on his head which would be split into two halves. His flesh might be combed with iron combs and removed from his bones, yet, all that did not cause him to revert from his religion. By Allāh! This religion (Islām) will be completed (and triumph) till a rider (traveller) goes from Ṣan'ā' (the capital of Yemen) to Ḥaḍramout, fearing nobody except Allāh and the wolf, lest it should trouble his sheep, but you are impatient." (See Vol. 5, Hadīth No.3852)

6944. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: While we were in the mosque, Allāh's Messenger ﷺ came out to us and said, "Let us proceed to the Jews." So we went along with him till we reached Bait-al-Midrās [a place where the Taurāt (Torah) used to be recited and all the Jews of the town used to gather]. The Prophet ﷺ stood up and addressed them, "O assembly of Jews! Embrace Islām and you will be safe!" The Jews replied, "O Abul-Qāsim! You have conveyed Allāh's Message to us." The Prophet ﷺ said, "That is what I want (from you)." He repeated his first statement for the second time, and they said, "You have conveyed Allāh's Message, O Abul-Qāsim." Then he said it for the third time and added, "You should know that the earth belongs to Allāh and His Messenger, and I want to exile you from this land, so whoever among you owns some property can sell it, otherwise you should know that the earth belongs to Allāh and His Messenger." (See Vol. 4, Hadīth No. 3167).

6948. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا regarding the Qur'ānic Verse: "O you who believe! You are forbidden to inherit women against their will..." (V.4:19) The custom (in the Pre-Islāmic Period of Ignorance) was that if a man died, his relatives used to have the right to inherit his wife; and if one of them wished, he could marry her, or they could marry her to somebody else, or prevent her from marrying if they wished, for they had more right to dispose of her than her own relatives. Therefore this (above mentioned) Verse was revealed concerning this matter.

Arabic text

6948 - حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَسْبَاطُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الشَّيْبَانِيُّ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ فَيْرُوزَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: الشَّيْبَانِيُّ، وَحَدَّثَنِي عَطَاءٌ أَبُو الحَسَنِ السُّوَائِيُّ، وَلاَ أَظُنُّهُ إِلَّا ذَكَرَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ يَحِلُّ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَرِثُوا النِّسَاءَ كَرْهًا} [النساء: 19] الآيَةَ. قَالَ: " كَانُوا إِذَا مَاتَ الرَّجُلُ كَانَ أَوْلِيَاؤُهُ أَحَقَّ بِامْرَأَتِهِ: إِنْ شَاءَ بَعْضُهُمْ تَزَوَّجَهَا، وَإِنْ شَاءُوا زَوَّجَهَا، وَإِنْ شَاءُوا لَمْ يُزَوِّجْهَا، فَهُمْ أَحَقُّ بِهَا مِنْ أَهْلِهَا، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ فِي ذَلِكَ "

6949. And Ṣāfiyya bint 'Ubaid said: "A governmental male-slave tried to seduce a slave-girl from the Khumus of the war booty till he deflowered her by force against her will; therefore 'Umar flogged him according to the law, and exiled him, but he did not flog the female slave because the male-slave had committed illegal sexual intercourse by force, against her will." Az-Zuhri said regarding a virgin slave-girl raped by a free man: The judge has to fine the adulterer as much money as is equal to the price of the female-slave and the adulterer has to be flogged (according to the Islāmic Law); but if the slave woman is a matron, then, according to the verdict of the Imām, the adulterer is not fined but he has to receive the legal punishment (according to the Islāmic Law).

Narrated Abū Hurairah رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "(The Prophet) Ibrāhīm (Abraham) migrated with his wife Sārah till he reached a town where there was a king from amongst the kings, or a tyrant from amongst the tyrants who sent a message to Ibrāhīm, ordering him to send Sārah to him. So when Ibrāhīm had sent Sārah, the tyrant got up, intending to do evil with her, but she got up and performed ablution and offered Ṣalāt (prayer) and said, 'O Allāh! If I have believed in You and in Your Messenger, then do not empower this oppressor over me.' So he (the king) had an epileptic fit (or fell in a state of unconsciousness) and started moving his legs violently." [See Vol.4, Hadīth No.3363).

6940 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلاَلٍ، عَنْ هِلاَلِ بْنِ أُسَامَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَخْبَرَهُ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَدْعُو فِي الصَّلاَةِ: «اللَّهُمَّ أَنْجِ عَيَّاشَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ، وَسَلَمَةَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ، وَالوَلِيدَ بْنَ الوَلِيدِ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْجِ المُسْتَضْعَفِينَ مِنَ المُؤْمِنِينَ، اللَّهُمَّ اشْدُدْ وَطْأَتَكَ عَلَى مُضَرَ، وَابْعَثْ عَلَيْهِمْ سِنِينَ كَسِنِي يُوسُفَ»
