حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ فِي التَّفْلِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : هِيَ خَطِيئَةٌ وَكَفَّارَتُهَا دَفْنُهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that, concerning spitting in the mosque, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is a sin, and its expiation is burying it (in the earth)."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : أَتِمُّوا الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ ، فَوَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَرَاكُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ ظَهْرِي إِذَا رَكَعْتُمْ وَإِذَا سَجَدْتُمْ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : يُرِيهِ اللهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ مَا لَا تَرَوْنَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Complete the bowing (ruku') and the prostration (sujud), for by Allah, I certainly see you from behind my back when you bow and when you prostrate." Then Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) said in explanation of it: "Allah Almighty shows him (peace and blessings be upon him) of these matters what you cannot see."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِثْلَهُ ، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَقُلْ : يُرِيهِ اللهُ .
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) the like of the previous hadith, except that this narration does not mention this saying of Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him): "Allah Almighty shows him (peace and blessings be upon him) what you do not see."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، وَعَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : إِنِّي لَأَدْخُلُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ أُرِيدُ إِطَالَتَهَا ، فَأَسْمَعُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ ، فَأَتَجَوَّزُ فِي صَلَاتِي مِمَّا أَعْلَمُ مِنْ شِدَّةِ وَجْدِ أُمِّهِ مِنْ بُكَائِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sometimes I begin the prayer intending to make it long, then I hear a child crying, so I shorten my prayer, because I know well the intense anguish and distress of his mother on account of his crying."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَتَاهُ رِعْلٌ ، وَذَكْوَانُ ، وَعُصَيَّةُ ، وَبَنُو لِحْيَانَ ، فَزَعَمُوا أَنَّهُمْ قَدْ أَسْلَمُوا ، فَاسْتَمَدُّوهُ عَلَى قَوْمِهِمْ ، فَأَمَدَّهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِسَبْعِينَ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ ، قَالَ أَنَسٌ : كُنَّا نُسَمِّيهِمْ فِي زَمَانِهِمُ الْقُرَّاءَ ، كَانُوا يُجَاهِدُونَ بِالنَّهَارِ ، وَيُصَلُّونَ بِاللَّيْلِ ، فَانْطَلَقُوا بِهِمْ حَتَّى إِذَا أَتَوْا بِئْرَ مَعُونَةَ ، غَدَرُوا بِهِمْ ، فَقَتَلُوهُمْ ، فَقَنَتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - شَهْرًا فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ يَدْعُو عَلَى هَذِهِ الْأَحْيَاءِ : رِعْلٍ ، وَذَكْوَانَ ، وَعُصَيَّةَ ، وَبَنِي لِحْيَانَ .
قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : وَحَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ أَنَّهُمْ قَرَءُوا بِهِ قُرْآنًا : بَلِّغُوا عَنَّا قَوْمَنَا أَنَّا لَقِينَا رَبَّنَا فَرَضِيَ عَنَّا وَأَرْضَانَا .
قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : وَحَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ أَنَّهُمْ قَرَءُوا بِهِ قُرْآنًا : بَلِّغُوا عَنَّا قَوْمَنَا أَنَّا لَقِينَا رَبَّنَا فَرَضِيَ عَنَّا وَأَرْضَانَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "The tribes of Ri'l, Dhakwan, Usayyah and Banu Lihyan came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and claimed that they had accepted Islam, and they asked him for help against their people. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) helped them with seventy Companions from the Ansar." Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: "In that time we used to call those Companions 'al-Qurra'' (the reciters). They used to be occupied by day in toil or jihad and used to pray at night. Then those people took the Companions along with them until, when they reached the place of Bi'r Ma'unah, they betrayed them and martyred them. Upon this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) invoked curses for one month in the Fajr prayer against those tribes, namely Ri'l, Dhakwan, Usayyah and Banu Lihyan." Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated this to us: "The Companions used to recite this Qur'anic speech about those martyrs: 'Convey from us to our people that we have met our Lord, and He is pleased with us and has made us pleased.'"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، وَعَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ يَرْفَعُونَ أَبْصَارَهُمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فِي صَلَاتِهِمْ ؟ فَاشْتَدَّ قَوْلُهُ فِي ذَلِكَ حَتَّى قَالَ : لَيَنْتَهُنَّ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، أَوْ لَتُخْطَفَنَّ أَبْصَارُهُمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What is wrong with people who raise their gaze to the sky during their prayer?" Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke severely about it, until he said: "They must certainly stop doing this, or else their sight will be snatched away."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، وَعَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : النُّخَاعَةُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ خَطِيئَةٌ ، وَكَفَّارَتُهَا دَفْنُهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Spitting in the mosque is a sin, and its expiation is burying it (that is, removing it and cleaning it away)."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، وَزَيْدَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ تَسَحَّرَا ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ سَحُورِهِ يَعْنِي قُلْتُ لَهُ : كَمْ كَانَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ دُخُولِهِ فِي صَلَاتِهِ ؟ قَالَ : قَدْرَ مَا يَقْرَأُ الرَّجُلُ خَمْسِينَ آيَةً .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) ate the pre-dawn meal (suhur). Then, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished his pre-dawn meal, Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I asked Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "How long was there between his (peace and blessings be upon him) finishing the pre-dawn meal and standing for the Fajr prayer?" He replied: "As long as it takes a person to recite fifty verses."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : أَتِمُّوا الصَّفَّ الْمُقَدَّمَ ، فَإِنْ كَانَ نُقْصَانٌ فَلْيَكُنْ فِي الْمُؤَخَّرِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Complete the first row, and then if there is any shortfall (in the number of worshippers), it should be in the very last row."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، وَعَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ سَأَلَتْ نَبِيَّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَنِ الْمَرْأَةِ تَرَى فِي مَنَامِهَا مَا يَرَى الرَّجُلُ ؟ فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِذَا كَانَ ذَاكَ فِي مَنَامِهَا فَلْتَغْتَسِلْ ، قَالَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ : وَاسْتَحْيَيْتُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقُلْتُ : أَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ ؟ فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : نَعَمْ ، فَمِنْ أَيْنَ يَكُونُ الشَّبَهُ ؟ إِنَّ مَاءَ الرَّجُلِ غَلِيظٌ أَبْيَضُ ، وَإِنَّ مَاءَ الْمَرْأَةِ أَصْفَرُ رَقِيقٌ فَأَيُّهُمَا عَلَا أَوْ سَبَقَ كَانَ مِنْهُ الشَّبَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) asked the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about a woman who sees in her dream what a man sees (that is, a wet dream). The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When she sees such a thing in her dream, she should take a ritual bath (ghusl)." Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I felt shy about this, so I said: "Does that really happen (to women as well)?" The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes; (if it did not,) then where would resemblance come from? Indeed, the fluid of the man is thick and white, while the fluid of the woman is yellow and thin; so whichever of the two prevails or comes first, the resemblance is according to it."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَنَّهُ نَهَى أَنْ يَشْرَبَ الرَّجُلُ قَائِمًا ، قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : فَقُلْنَا : فَالْأَكْلُ ؟ قَالَ : ذَاكَ شَرٌّ أَوْ أَخْبَثُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade a man to drink while standing. Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) says: We said: "Then what is the ruling on eating?" He (Sayyiduna Anas, may Allah be pleased with him) said: "That is even worse, or he said: more vile."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - كَانَ يُضَحِّي بِكَبْشَيْنِ أَمْلَحَيْنِ أَقْرَنَيْنِ ، يَطَأُ عَلَى صِفَاحِهِمَا وَيَذْبَحُهُمَا بِيَدِهِ ، وَيَقُولُ : بِسْمِ اللهِ ، وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to sacrifice two black-and-white horned rams. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would place his blessed foot on their sides and slaughter them with his own blessed hand, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: 'Bismillah, wallahu akbar' (In the name of Allah, and Allah is the Greatest)."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَتَى عَلَى رَجُلٍ يَسُوقُ بَدَنَةً ، قَالَ : ارْكَبْهَا ، قَالَ : إِنَّهَا بَدَنَةٌ ، قَالَ : ارْكَبْهَا ، وَيْلَكَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by a man who was driving a sacrificial camel along. Seeing him, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ride it." The man said: "(O Messenger of Allah!) It is a sacrificial animal (hady)." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (emphatically): "Come now, man! Ride it."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِنْ أَخَفِّ النَّاسِ صَلَاةً فِي تَمَامٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), while performing it completely (with all its pillars and Sunnahs), was the one among the people who led the lightest (shortest) prayer."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلَا يَتْفُلَنَّ قُدَّامَهُ ، وَلَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ ، فَإِنَّهُ يُنَاجِي رَبَّهُ ، وَلَكِنْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ ، أَوْ تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ الْيُسْرَى .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you is in his prayer, he must never spit in front of himself or ahead of himself, for he is (in the state of prayer) speaking intimately with his Lord; rather, he should (spit) to his left or under his left foot."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَهْطًا مِنْ عُكْلٍ وَعُرَيْنَةَ أَتَوْا رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّا كُنَّا أَهْلَ ضَرْعٍ ، وَلَمْ نَكُنْ أَهْلَ رِيفٍ ، قَالَ : فَاسْتَوْخَمُوا الْمَدِينَةَ ، فَأَمَرَ لَهُمْ بِذَوْدٍ وَرَاعٍ أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا فِيهَا فَيَشْرَبُونَ مِنْ أَبْوَالِهَا وَأَلْبَانِهَا ، فَقَتَلُوا رَاعِي رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، وَاسْتَاقُوا الذَّوْدَ ، وَكَفَرُوا بَعْدَ إِسْلَامِهِمْ ، فَبَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي طَلَبِهِمْ ، فَأُتِيَ بِهِمْ ، فَقَطَعَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ ، وَسَمَرَ أَعْيُنَهُمْ ، وَتَرَكَهُمْ فِي الْحَرَّةِ حَتَّى مَاتُوا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a group of people from Ukl and Uraynah came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! We were people who raised livestock; we were not people of farmland and settlements." The climate of Madinah did not suit them, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) arranged a few she-camels and a herdsman for them and ordered them to go out with them and drink the milk and urine of the she-camels. Then they killed the herdsman of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), drove off the she-camels and disbelieved after having accepted Islam. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent people in pursuit of them, and they were caught and brought back. He (peace and blessings be upon him) had their hands and feet cut off, had heated iron rods passed over their eyes, and left them in the stony plain of al-Harrah until they died.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ : أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - صَعِدَ أُحُدًا ، فَتَبِعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، وَعُمَرُ ، وَعُثْمَانُ ، فَرَجَفَ بِهِمْ ، فَقَالَ : اسْكُنْ نَبِيٌّ ، وَصِدِّيقٌ ، وَشَهِيدَانِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went up Mount Uhud, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr, Sayyiduna Umar and Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with them) also climbed (the mountain) with him (peace and blessings be upon him). The mountain began to tremble with them, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "(O Uhud!) Be still, for upon you are a Prophet, a Siddiq and two martyrs."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ غُنْدَرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - كَانَ بِالزَّوْرَاءِ ، فَأُتِيَ بِإِنَاءٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ لَا يَغْمُرُ أَصَابِعَهُ أَوْ قَالَ : مَا يُوَارِي أَصَابِعَهُ فَأَمَرَ أَصْحَابَهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّئُوا ، وَوَضَعَ كَفَّهُ فِي الْمَاءِ ، فَجَعَلْنَا نَرَى الْمَاءَ يَنْبُعُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ حَتَّى تَوَضَّأَ الْقَوْمُ ، قُلْنَا لِأَنَسٍ : كَمْ كُنْتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ ؟ قَالَ : ثَلَاثَمِائَةٍ ، أَوْ زُهَاءَ ثَلَاثِمِائَةٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was at the place called al-Zawra'. A vessel of water was brought to him (peace and blessings be upon him), whose water was not even enough to cover his (peace and blessings be upon him) fingers. He (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the Companions to perform ablution (wudu) and placed his palm in the water. We saw water gushing forth from between his (peace and blessings be upon him) fingers, until all the people had performed ablution. The narrator says: We asked Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "How many of you were there that day?" He said: "Three hundred, or about three hundred."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "It was the blessed practice of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that when he (peace and blessings be upon him) overcame a people, he (peace and blessings be upon him) liked to stay in their (conquered) open ground for three days."

The narrator says: I asked Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "Did he (peace and blessings be upon him) have the strength for that?" He said: "We used to say among ourselves that he (peace and blessings be upon him) had been given the strength of forty men."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : مَنْ نَسِيَ صَلَاةً أَوْ نَامَ عَنْهَا ، فَكَفَّارَتُهَا أَنْ يُصَلِّيَهَا إِذَا ذَكَرَهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever forgets a prayer or sleeps through it (until its time passes), its expiation is only that he performs it when he remembers it."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: أَلَا أُحَدِّثَكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، لَا يُحَدِّثُكُمْ أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي سَمِعَهُ مِنْهُ: «إِنَّهُ مِنْ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ أَنْ يُرْفَعَ الْعِلْمُ، وَيَظْهَرَ الْجَهْلُ، وَيَفْشُوَ الزِّنَى، وَيُشْرَبَ الْخَمْرُ، وَيَذْهَبَ الرِّجَالُ، وَيَبْقَى النِّسَاءُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ لِخَمْسِينَ امْرَأَةً قَيِّمٌ وَاحِدٌ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "Shall I not narrate to you a hadith that I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and after me no one will remain who will narrate it having heard it directly from him (peace and blessings be upon him)? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Indeed, among the signs of the Hour are that (religious) knowledge will be taken away, ignorance will prevail, fornication will become widespread, wine will be drunk, the number of men will decrease and women will remain in great numbers, until there will be only one man to look after fifty women.'"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالُوا لِلنَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ يُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْنَا فَكَيْفَ نَرُدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ ؟ قَالَ : قُولُوا : وَعَلَيْكُمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him (peace and blessings be upon him): "The People of the Book greet us with salam; so how should we reply to them?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Say: 'Wa alaykum' (And upon you too)."

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying (and I do not know whether it was something revealed or a saying of his (peace and blessings be upon him)): "If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would wish for, or seek, a third valley along with them. Nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust, and Allah accepts the repentance of whoever repents."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "None of you will be a complete believer until he loves for his brother and his neighbour what he loves for himself."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "On the night of the Ascension (Mi'raj), al-Buraq was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), saddled and bridled, and it showed defiance (and restlessness) towards him (peace and blessings be upon him). At this, Jibril (peace be upon him) rebuked it, saying: 'Are you behaving like this with Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)? Yet in the sight of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, none of those who have ridden you is more honoured and noble than him.' Hearing this, al-Buraq became drenched in sweat (out of shame)."
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، فِي قَوْلِ اللهِ : عِنْدَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : رُفِعَتْ لِي سِدْرَةُ الْمُنْتَهَى فِي السَّمَاءِ السَّابِعَةِ نَبْقُهَا مِثْلُ قِلَالِ هَجَرَ ، وَوَرَقُهَا مِثْلُ آذَانِ الْفِيَلَةِ ، يَخْرُجُ مِنْ سَاقِهَا نَهَرَانِ ظَاهِرَانِ ، وَنَهَرَانِ بَاطِنَانِ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا جِبْرِيلُ مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَ : أَمَّا النَّهَرَانِ الْبَاطِنَانِ فَفِي الْجَنَّةِ ، وَأَمَّا الظَّاهِرَانِ فَالنِّيلُ وَالْفُرَاتُ .
Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him), explaining the saying of Allah Almighty "Near the Lote-Tree of the Utmost Boundary (Sidrat al-Muntaha)", says that Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) informed him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sidrat al-Muntaha was raised up for me in the seventh heaven. Its fruits were like the earthenware jars of Hajar and its leaves were like the ears of elephants. From its trunk issued two outer rivers and two inner rivers. I asked: 'O Jibril! What are these?' He said: 'The two inner rivers are in Paradise, and the two outer rivers are the Nile and the Euphrates.'"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) concerning the saying of Allah Almighty "Indeed, We have granted you al-Kawthar" that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I saw al-Kawthar; it is a river in Paradise on both of whose banks are domes of pearls.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the people of Makkah asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for a sign (miracle), and the moon split into two pieces in Makkah. At this, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed these verses: "The Hour has drawn near and the moon has split. And if they see a sign, they turn away and say: This is continuous magic." Qatadah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that the word "mustamirr" here means "passing away".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، قَالَ : إِنَّ مِنْ تَمَامِ الصَّلَاةِ إِقَامَةَ الصَّفِّ .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "None of you should spit during his prayer either in front of himself or to his right, for he is (in that state) speaking intimately with his Lord."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What is the matter with people who raise their gaze to the sky during their prayer?"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you stays lying down at the time of prayer or falls asleep, he should perform the prayer when he remembers it."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a vessel of water was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in which there was as much water as would cover his (peace and blessings be upon him) fingers, or would not cover them (Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him) was in doubt). The people began to perform ablution from it, and the water began to gush forth from between his (peace and blessings be upon him) fingers. The narrator says: We asked Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "How many of you were there?" He said: "Three hundred."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a man driving a sacrificial camel (badanah), so he said to him: "Ride it." The man said that it was a sacrificial animal, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (again): "Woe to you, ride it."
