I gave the pledge of allegiance to Allah's Apostle for the following:

1. offer prayers perfectly

2. pay the Zakat (obligatory charity)

3. and be sincere and true to every Muslim."

Volume 1, Book 2, Number 55:

Narrated Ziyad bin'Ilaqa:

I heard Jarir bin 'Abdullah (Praising Allah). On the day when Al-Mughira bin Shu'ba died, he (Jarir) got up (on the pulpit) and thanked and praised Allah and said, ""Be afraid of Allah alone Who has none along with Him to be worshipped.(You should) be calm and quiet till the (new) chief comes to you and he will come to you soon. Ask Allah's forgiveness for your (late) chief because he himself loved to forgive others."" Jarir added, ""Amma badu (now then), I went to the Prophet and said, 'I give my pledge of allegiance to you for Islam."" The Prophet conditioned (my pledge) for me to be sincere and true to every Muslim so I gave my pledge to him for this. By the Lord of this mosque! I am sincere and true to you (Muslims). Then Jarir asked for Allah's forgiveness and came down (from the pulpit)."

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 56:

Narrated Abu Huraira:

While the Prophet was saying something in a gathering, a Bedouin came and asked him, ""When would the Hour (Doomsday) take place?"" Allah's Apostle continued his talk, so some people said that Allah's Apostle had heard the question, but did not like what that Bedouin had asked. Some of them said that Alllah's Apostle had not heard it. When the Prophet finished his speech, he said, ""Where is the questioner, who enquired about the Hour (Doomsday)?"" The Bedouin said, ""I am here, O Allah's Apostle ."" Then the Prophet said, ""When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday)."" The Bedouin said, ""How will that be lost?"" The Prophet said, ""When the power or authority comes in the hands of unfit persons, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday.)"""

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 57:

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr:

Once the Prophet remained behind us in a journey. He joined us while we were performing ablution for the prayer which was over-due. We were just passing wet hands over our feet (and not washing them properly) so the Prophet addressed us in a loud voice and said twice or thrice: ""Save your heels from the fire."""

He replied, ""It is the date-palm tree."""

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

While we were sitting with the Prophet in the mosque, a man came riding on a camel. He made his camel kneel down in the mosque, tied its foreleg and then said: ""Who amongst you is Muhammad?"" At that time the Prophet was sitting amongst us (his companions) leaning on his arm. We replied, ""This white man reclining on his arm."" The an then addressed him, ""O Son of 'Abdul Muttalib.""

The Prophet said, ""I am here to answer your questions."" The man said to the Prophet, ""I want to ask you something and will be hard in questioning. So do not get angry."" The Prophet said, ""Ask whatever you want."" The man said, ""I ask you by your Lord, and the Lord of those who were before you, has Allah sent you as an Apostle to all the mankind?"" The Prophet replied, ""By Allah, yes."" The man further said, ""I ask you by Allah. Has Allah ordered you to offer five prayers in a day and night (24 hours).? He replied, ""By Allah, Yes."" The man further said, ""I ask you by Allah! Has Allah ordered you to observe fasts during this month of the year (i.e. Ramadan)?"" He replied, ""By Allah, Yes."" The man further said, ""I ask you by Allah. Has Allah ordered you to take Zakat (obligatory charity) from our rich people and distribute it amongst our poor people?"" The Prophet replied, ""By Allah, yes."" Thereupon that man said, ""I have believed in all that with which you have been sent, and I have been sent by my people as a messenger, and I am Dimam bin Tha'laba from the brothers of Bani Sa'd bin Bakr."""

Once the Prophet wrote a letter or had an idea of writing a letter. The Prophet was told that they (rulers) would not read letters unless they were sealed.

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 66:

Narrated Abu Waqid Al-Laithi:

While Allah's Apostle was sitting in the mosque with some people, three men came. Two of them came in front of Allah's Apostle and the third one went away. The two persons kept on standing before Allah's Apostle for a while and then one of them found a place in the circle and sat there while the other sat behind the gathering, and the third one went away. When Allah's Apostle finished his preaching, he said, ""Shall I tell you about these three persons? One of them be-took himself to Allah, so Allah took him into His grace and mercy and accommodated him, the second felt shy from Allah, so Allah sheltered Him in His mercy (and did not punish him), while the third turned his face from Allah and went away, so Allah turned His face from him likewise.

Narrated 'Abdur Rahman bin Abi Bakra's father:

Once the Prophet was riding his camel and a man was holding its rein. The Prophet asked, ""What is the day today?"" We kept quiet, thinking that he might give that day another name. He said, ""Isn't it the day of Nahr (slaughtering of the animals of sacrifice)"" We replied, ""Yes."" He further asked, ""Which month is this?"" We again kept quiet, thinking that he might give it another name. Then he said, ""Isn't it the month of Dhul-Hijja?"" We replied, ""Yes."" He said, ""Verily! Your blood, property and honor are sacred to one another (i.e. Muslims) like the sanctity of this day of yours, in this month of yours and in this city of yours. It is incumbent upon those who are present to inform those who are absent because those who are absent might comprehend (what I have said) better than the present audience."""

That he differed with Hur bin Qais bin Hisn Al-Fazari regarding the companion of (the Prophet) Moses. Ibn 'Abbas said that he was Khadir. Meanwhile, Ubai bin Ka'b passed by them and Ibn 'Abbas called him, saying ""My friend (Hur) and I have differed regarding Moses' companion whom Moses, asked the way to meet. Have you heard the Prophet mentioning something about him? He said, ""Yes. I heard Allah's Apostle saying, ""While Moses was sitting in the company of some Israelites, a man came and asked him. ""Do you know anyone who is more learned than you? Moses replied: ""No."" So Allah sent the Divine Inspiration to Moses: 'Yes, Our slave Khadir (is more learned than you.)' Moses asked (Allah) how to meet him (Khadir). So Allah made the fish as a sign for him and he was told that when the fish was lost, he should return (to the place where he had lost it) and there he would meet him (Al-Khadir). So Moses went on looking for the sign of the fish in the sea. The servant-boy of Moses said to him: Do you remember when we betook ourselves to the rock, I indeed forgot the fish, none but Satan made me forget to remember it. On that Moses said: 'That is what we have been seeking? (18.64) So they went back retracing their foot-steps, and found Khadir. (And) what happened further to them is narrated in the Holy Qur'an by Allah. (18.54 up to 18.82)"

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:

that he differed with Hur bin Qais bin Hisn Al-Fazari regarding the companion of the Prophet Moses. Meanwhile, Ubai bin Ka'b passed by them and Ibn 'Abbas called him saying, ""My friend (Hur) and I have differed regarding Moses' companion whom Moses asked the way to meet. Have you heard Allah's Apostle mentioning something about him? Ubai bin Ka'b said: ""Yes, I heard the Prophet mentioning something about him (saying) while Moses was sitting in the company of some Israelites, a man came and asked him: ""Do you know anyone who is more learned than you? Moses replied: ""No."" So Allah sent the Divine Inspiration to Moses: '--Yes, Our slave Khadir is more learned than you. Moses asked Allah how to meet him (Al-Khadir). So Allah made the fish a sign for him and he was told when the fish was lost, he should return (to the place where he had lost it) and there he would meet him (Al-Khadir). So Moses went on looking for the sign of the fish in the sea. The servant-boy of Moses said: 'Do you remember when we betook ourselves to the rock, I indeed forgot the fish, none but Satan made me forget to remember it. On that Moses said, 'That is what we have been seeking.' So they went back retracing their footsteps, and found Kha,dir. (and) what happened further about them is narrated in the Holy Qur'an by Allah."" (18.54 up to 18.82)"

Narrated Abu Musa:

The Prophet said, ""The example of guidance and knowledge with which Allah 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 Allah benefited the people with it and they utilized it for drinking, making their animals drink from it and for irrigation of 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 Allah's religion and gets benefit (from the knowledge) which Allah has revealed through me (the Prophets and learns and then teaches others. The last example is that of a person who does not care for it and does not take Allah's guidance revealed through me (He is like that barren land.)"""

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 praised and glorified Allah 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 inspired to me that you will be put to trials in your graves and these trials will be like the trials of Masiah-ad-Dajjal or nearly like it (the sub narrator is not sure which expression Asma' used). You will be asked, 'What do you know about this man (the Prophet Muhammad)?' Then the faithful believer (or Asma' said a similar word) will reply, 'He is Muhammad Allah's Apostle who had come to us with clear evidences and guidance and so we accepted his teachings and followed him. And he is Muhammad.' 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.'

I was an interpreter between the people and Ibn 'Abbas. Once Ibn 'Abbas said that a delegation of the tribe of'Abdul Qais came to the Prophet who asked them, ""Who are the people (i.e. you)? (Or) who are the delegates?"" They replied, ""We are from the tribe of Rabi'a."" Then the Prophet 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 Mudar 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 also inform our people whom we have left behind (at home) and that we may enter Paradise (by acting on them.)"" The Prophet ordered them to do four things, and forbade them from four things. He ordered them to believe in Allah Alone, the Honorable the Majestic and said to them, ""Do you know what is meant by believing in Allah Alone?"" They replied, ""Allah and His Apostle know better."" Thereupon the Prophet said, ""(That means to testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is His Apostle, to offer prayers perfectly, to pay Zakat, to observe fasts during the month of Ramadan, (and) to pay Al-Khumus (one fifth of the booty to be given in Allah's cause)."" Then he forbade them four things, namely Ad-Dubba.' Hantam, Muzaffat (and) An-Naqir or Muqaiyar(These were the names of pots in which alcoholic drinks used to be prepared).

'Uqba bin Al-Harith said that he had married the daughter of Abi Ihab bin 'Aziz. Later on a woman came to him and said, ""I have suckled (nursed) Uqba and the woman whom he married (his wife) at my breast."" 'Uqba said to her, ""Neither I knew that you have suckled (nursed) me nor did you tell me."" Then he rode over to see Allah's Apostle at Medina, and asked him about it. Allah's Apostle said, ""How can you keep her as a wife when it has been said (that she is your foster-sister)?"" Then Uqba divorced her, and she married another man."

Narrated 'Umar:

My Ansari neighbor from Bani Umaiya bin Zaid who used to live at 'Awali Al-Medina and used to visit the Prophet 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 Inspiration and other things, and when he went, he used to do the same for me. Once my Ansari friend, in his turn (on returning from the Prophet), 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 Hafsa and saw her weeping. I asked her, ""Did Allah's Apostle divorce you all?"" She replied, ""I do not know."" Then, I entered upon the Prophet and said while standing, ""Have you divorced your wives?"" The Prophet replied in the negative. On what I said, ""Allahu-Akbar (Allah is Greater)."" (See Hadith No. 119, Vol. 3 for details)"

Narrated Abu Mas'ud Al-Ansari:

Once a man said to Allah's Apostle ""O Allah's Apostle! I may not attend the (compulsory congregational) prayer because so and so (the Imam) prolongs the prayer when he leads us for it. The narrator added: ""I never saw the Prophet more furious in giving advice than he was on that day. The Prophet said, ""O people! Some of you make others dislike good deeds (the prayers). So whoever leads the people in prayer should shorten it because among them there are the sick the weak and the needy (having some jobs to do)."""

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 91:

Narrated Zaid bin Khalid Al-Juhani:

A man asked the Prophet about the picking up of a ""Luqata"" (fallen lost thing). The Prophet replied, ""Recognize and remember its tying material and its container, and make public announcement (about it) for one year, then utilize it but give it to its owner if he comes."" Then the person asked about the lost camel. On that, the Prophet got angry and his cheeks or his Face became red and he said, ""You have no concern with it as it has its water container, and its feet and it will reach water, and eat (the leaves) of trees till its owner finds it."" The man then asked about the lost sheep. The Prophet replied, ""It is either for you, for your brother (another person) or for the wolf."""

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 92:

Narrated Abu Musa:

The Prophet was asked about things which he did not like, but when the questioners insisted, the Prophet got angry. He then said to the people, ""Ask me anything you like.""

He replied, ""Your father is Salim, Maula (the freed slave) of Shaiba."" So when 'Umar saw that (the anger) on the face of the Prophet he said, ""O Allah's Apostle! We repent to Allah (Our offending you)."""

Once Allah's Apostle came out while Bilal was accompanying him. He went towards the women thinking that they had not heard him (i.e. his sermon). So he preached them and ordered them to pay alms.

I said: ""O Allah's Apostle! Who will be the luckiest person, who will gain your intercession on the Day of Resurrection?"" Allah's Apostle said: O Abu Huraira! ""I have thought that none will ask me about it before you as I know your longing for the (learning of) Hadiths. The luckiest person who will have my intercession on the Day of Resurrection will be the one who said sincerely from the bottom of his heart ""None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.""

And 'Umar bin 'Abdul 'Aziz wrote to Abu Bakr bin Hazm, ""Look for the knowledge of Hadith and get it written, as I am afraid that religious knowledge will vanish and the religious learned men will pass away (die). Do not accept anything save the Hadiths of the Prophet. Circulate knowledge and teach the ignorant, for knowledge does not vanish except when it is kept secretly (to oneself)."""

Some women requested the Prophet to fix a day for them as the men were taking all his time. On that he promised them one day for religious lessons and commandments.

He replied, ""Even two (will shield her from the Hell-fire).""

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 103:

Narrated Ibn Abu Mulaika:

Whenever 'Aisha (the wife of the Prophet) heard anything which she did not understand, she used to ask again till she understood it completely. Aisha said: ""Once the Prophet said, ""Whoever will be called to account (about his deeds on the Day of Resurrection) will surely be punished."" I said, ""Doesn't Allah say: ""He surely will receive an easy reckoning."" (84.8) The Prophet replied, ""This means only the presentation of the accounts but whoever will be argued about his account, will certainly be ruined."""

Narrated Said:

Abu Shuraih said, ""When 'Amr bin Said was sending the troops to Mecca (to fight 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair) I said to him, 'O chief! Allow me to tell you what the Prophet said on the day following the conquests of Mecca. My ears heard and my heart comprehended, and I saw him with my own eyes, when he said it. He glorified and praised Allah and then said, ""Allah and not the people has made Mecca a sanctuary. So anybody who has belief in Allah 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 Mecca as Allah's Apostle did fight (in Mecca), tell him that Allah gave permission to His Apostle, but He did not give it to you. The Prophet added: Allah 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."" Abu- Shuraih was asked, ""What did 'Amr reply?"" He said 'Amr said, ""O Abu Shuraih! I know better than you (in this respect). Mecca does not give protection to one who disobeys (Allah) or runs after committing murder, or theft (and takes refuge in Mecca)."

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 105:

Narrated Abu Bakra:

The Prophet said. No doubt your blood, property, the sub-narrator Muhammad thought that Abu Bakra had also mentioned and your honor (chastity), are sacred to one another as is the sanctity of this day of yours in this month of yours. It is incumbent on those who are present to inform those who are absent."" (Muhammad the Subnarrator used to say, ""Allah's Apostle told the truth."") The Prophet repeated twice: ""No doubt! Haven't I conveyed Allah's message to you."

Volume 1, Book 3, Number 112:

Narrated Abu Huraira:

In the year of the Conquest of Mecca, the tribe of Khuza'a killed a man from the tribe of Bani Laith in revenge for a killed person, belonging to them. They informed the Prophet about it. So he rode his Rahila (she-camel for riding) and addressed the people saying, ""Allah held back the killing from Mecca. (The sub-narrator is in doubt whether the Prophet said ""elephant or killing,"" as the Arabic words standing for these words have great similarity in shape), but He (Allah) let His Apostle and the believers over power the infidels of Mecca. Beware! (Mecca is a sanctuary) Verily! Fighting in Mecca 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 Luqatt (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 (Diyya) or retaliation having the killer killed. In the meantime a man from Yemen came and said, ""O Allah's Apostle! Get that written for me."" The Prophet ordered his companions to write that for him. Then a man from Quraish said, ""Except Al-Iqhkhir (a type of grass that has good smell) O Allah's Apostle, as we use it in our houses and graves."" The Prophet said, ""Except Al-Idhkhiri.e. Al-Idhkhir is allowed to be plucked."""

Ibn 'Abbas said, ""When the ailment of the Prophet 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 is seriously ill, and we have got Allah's Book with us and that is sufficient for us.' But the companions of the Prophet differed about this and there was a hue and cry. On that the Prophet said to them, 'Go away (and leave me alone). It is not right that you should quarrel in front of me."" Ibn 'Abbas came out saying, ""It was most unfortunate (a great disaster) that Allah's Apostle was prevented from writing that statement for them because of their disagreement and noise. (Note: It is apparent from this Hadith that Ibn 'Abbes had witnessed the event and came out saying this statement. The truth is not so, for Ibn 'Abbas used to say this statement on narrating the Hadith and he had not witnessed the event personally. See Fath Al-Bari Vol. 1, p.220 footnote.)
