حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَاسِرٍ عَمَّارُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مَثَلُ السُّنْبُلَةِ تَمِيلُ أَحْيَانًا وَتَسْتَقِيمُ أَحْيَانًا ، وَمَثَلُ أُمَّتِي كَمَثَلِ الْمَطَرِ لَا يُدْرَى أَوَّلُهُ خَيْرٌ أَوْ آخِرُهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The example of the believer is like an ear of grain that sometimes bends (with the direction of circumstances) and sometimes stands upright. And the example of my Ummah is like rain: it cannot be known whether its first part is better or its last part."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَاسِرٍ عَمَّارٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : لَيْسَ مِنَّا مَنْ لَمْ يُوَقِّرْ كَبِيرَنَا ، وَيَرْحَمْ صَغِيرَنَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Laysa minna man lam yuwaqqir kabirana wa yarham saghirana' ("He is not of us (that is, not on our way) who does not honour and respect our elders and show compassion and mercy to our young.")
حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِجِنَازَةٍ لِيُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهَا ، قَالَ : هَلْ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ ؟ قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ نَهَانِي أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ ، وَقَالَ : إِنَّ صَاحِبَ الدَّيْنِ مُرْتَهَنٌ فِي قَبْرِهِ ، حَتَّى يُقْضَى عَنْهُ دَيْنُهُ ، فَأَبَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a funeral was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) so that he (peace and blessings be upon him) would lead the funeral prayer over it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Is there any debt on him?" The people said: "Yes." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed Jibril (peace be upon him) has forbidden me to lead the funeral prayer over a man who has a debt on him, and he said that the debtor remains held in pledge (detained) in his grave until his debt is paid off on his behalf." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) refused to lead the funeral prayer over him.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَاسِرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : الْخَلْقُ عِيَالُ اللهِ ، فَأَحَبُّ خَلْقِهِ إِلَيْهِ أَنْفَعُهُمْ لِعِيَالِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "All creation is the family (dependants) of Allah Almighty, so the most beloved of His creation to Allah is the one who is most beneficial to His family (creation)."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ زَنْجُوَيْهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا افْتَتَحَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَيْبَرَ ، قَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ عِلَاطٍ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّ لِي بِمَكَّةَ مَالًا ، وَإِنَّ لِي بِهَا أَهْلًا ، وَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ آتِيَهُمْ ، فَأَنَا فِي حِلٍّ إِنْ أَنَا نِلْتُ مِنْكَ أَوْ قُلْتُ شَيْئًا ؟ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَقُولَ مَا شَاءَ ، قَالَ : فَأَتَى امْرَأَتَهُ حِينَ قَدِمَ ، فَقَالَ : اجْمَعِي مَا كَانَ عِنْدَكِ ، فَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَشْتَرِيَ مِنْ غَنَائِمِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَصْحَابِهِ ، فَإِنَّهُمْ قَدِ اسْتُبِيحُوا وَأُصِيبَتْ أَمْوَالُهُمْ ، قَالَ : وَفَشَا ذَلِكَ بِمَكَّةَ ، فَأَوْجَعَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، وَأَظْهَرَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ فَرَحًا وَسُرُورًا ، وَبَلَغَ الْخَبَرُ الْعَبَّاسَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، فَعَقِرَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ وَجَعَلَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَقُومَ .
قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ : فَأَخْبَرَنِي الْجَزَرِيُّ ، عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ ، قَالَ : فَأَخَذَ الْعَبَّاسُ ابْنًا لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ : قُثَمُ ، وَكَانَ شَبَهَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَاسْتَلْقَى ، فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ :
حِبِّي قُثَمْ شَبِيهُ ذِي الْأَنْفِ الْأَشَمْ بَادِيَ النِّعَمْ بِرَغْمِ أَنْفِ مَنْ رَغِمْ قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ : قَالَ ثَابِتٌ : قَالَ أَنَسٌ : ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ غُلَامًا لَهُ إِلَى الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ عِلَاطٍ ، فَقَالَ : وَيْلَكَ ، مَا جِئْتَ بِهِ ؟ وَمَاذَا تَقُولُ ؟ فَمَا وَعَدَ اللهُ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا جِئْتَ بِهِ ، قَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ لِغُلَامِهِ : أَقْرِئْ أَبَا الْفَضْلِ السَّلَامَ ، وَقُلْ لَهُ : فَلْيُخْلِ لِي بَعْضَ بُيُوتِهِ لِآتِيَهُ ، فَإِنَّ الْخَبَرَ عَلَى مَا يَسُرُّهُ ، فَجَاءَ غُلَامُهُ ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ الْبَابَ ، قَالَ : أَبْشِرْ أَبَا الْفَضْلِ ، فَوَثَبَ الْعَبَّاسُ فَرَحًا حَتَّى قَبَّلَ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِمَا قَالَ الْحَجَّاجُ فَأَعْتَقَهُ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ الْحَجَّاجُ فَأَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدِ افْتَتَحَ خَيْبَرَ وَغَنِمَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ ، وَجَرَتْ سِهَامُ اللهِ فِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ ، وَاصْطَفَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ حُيَيٍّ ، وَاتَّخَذَهَا لِنَفْسِهِ ، وَخَيَّرَهَا بَيْنَ أَنْ يُعْتِقَهَا فَتَكُونَ زَوْجَتَهُ ، وَبَيْنَ أَنْ تَلْحَقَ بِأَهْلِهَا ، فَاخْتَارَتْ أَنْ يُعْتِقَهَا وَتَكُونَ زَوْجَتَهُ ، وَلَكِنْ جِئْتُ لِمَا كَانَ لِي هَاهُنَا ، أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَجْمَعَهُ وَأَذْهَبَ بِهِ ، فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَذِنَ لِي أَنْ أَقُولَ مَا شِئْتُ ، فَاخْفِ عَلَيَّ ثَلَاثًا ، ثُمَّ اذْكُرْ مَا بَدَا لَكَ .
قَالَ : فَجَمَعَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ مَا كَانَ عِنْدَهَا مِنْ حُلِيٍّ وَمَتَاعٍ فَجَمَعَتْهُ فَدَفَعَتْهُ إِلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَمَرَّ بِهِ ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ ، أَتَى الْعَبَّاسُ امْرَأَةَ الْحَجَّاجِ ، فَقَالَ : مَا فَعَلَ زَوْجُكِ ؟ فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ ذَهَبَ ، وَقَالَتْ : لَا يُحْزِنُكَ اللهُ يَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ ، لَقَدْ شَقَّ عَلَيْنَا الَّذِي بَلَغَكَ ، قَالَ : أَجَلْ ، لَا يُحْزِنُنِي اللهُ ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ بِحَمْدِ اللهِ إِلَّا مَا أَحْبَبْنَاهُ ، قَدْ أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَجَّاجُ أَنَّ اللهَ فَتَحَ خَيْبَرَ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ، وَجَرَتْ فِيهَا سِهَامُ اللهِ ، وَاصْطَفَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَفِيَّةَ لِنَفْسِهِ ، فَإِنْ كَانَ لَكِ حَاجَةٌ فِي زَوْجِكِ فَالْحَقِي بِهِ ، قَالَتْ : أَظُنُّكَ وَاللهِ صَادِقًا ، قَالَ : فَإِنِّي صَادِقٌ ، وَالْأَمْرُ عَلَى مَا أَخْبَرْتُكِ .
قَالَ : ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ حَتَّى أَتَى مَجَالِسَ قُرَيْشٍ ، وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ : لَا يُصِيبُكَ إِلَّا خَيْرٌ يَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ ، قَالَ : لَمْ يُصِبْنِي إِلَّا خَيْرٌ بِحَمْدِ اللهِ ، قَدْ أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَجَّاجُ أَنَّ خَيْبَرَ فَتَحَهَا اللهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ، وَجَرَتْ فِيهَا سِهَامُ اللهِ ، وَاصْطَفَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَفِيَّةَ لِنَفْسِهِ ، وَقَدْ سَأَلَنِي أَنْ أُخْفِيَ عَنْهُ ثَلَاثًا ، وَإِنَّمَا جَاءَ لِيَأْخُذَ مَا كَانَ لَهُ ثُمَّ يَذْهَبَ .
قَالَ : فَرَدَّ اللهُ الْكَآبَةَ الَّتِي كَانَتْ بِالْمُسْلِمِينَ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ ، وَخَرَجَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ مَنْ كَانَ دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ مُكْتَئِبًا حَتَّى أَتَوُا الْعَبَّاسَ ، وَرَدَّ اللهُ مَا كَانَ مِنْ كَآبَةٍ أَوْ غَيْظٍ أَوْ خِزْيٍ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ .
قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ : فَأَخْبَرَنِي الْجَزَرِيُّ ، عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ ، قَالَ : فَأَخَذَ الْعَبَّاسُ ابْنًا لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ : قُثَمُ ، وَكَانَ شَبَهَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَاسْتَلْقَى ، فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ :

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) conquered Khaybar, Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj bin Ilat (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah, my wealth and my family are in Makkah, and I want to go to them. So am I permitted, if I say something against you or (apparently) disparage you (in order to get my wealth out)?" the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted him to say whatever he wished. When Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj reached Makkah, he came to his wife and said: "Gather whatever you have, for I want to buy some of the spoils of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions, because they have been overpowered and their wealth has been seized." This news spread in Makkah, which greatly grieved the Muslims, while the polytheists displayed joy and delight. When this news reached Sayyiduna al-Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him), he collapsed, exhausted, in his gathering and had no strength left to stand. Ma'mar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: al-Jazari (may Allah have mercy on him) told me, on the authority of Miqsam (may Allah have mercy on him), that Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) took up his son Sayyiduna Qutham (may Allah be pleased with him), who resembled the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), then lay on his back, placed his son on his chest and began reciting these verses: 'Hibbi Qutham, shabihu dhi al-anfi al-asham, badi al-ni'am, bi-raghmi anfi man raghim' ("My beloved Qutham resembles the one with the noble nose (the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)), the one who makes blessings manifest; may the noses of the enemies be rubbed in the dust.") Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) related: Then Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) sent one of his slaves to Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj bin Ilat with the message: "Woe to you! What kind of news is this that you have brought? And what are you saying? Allah's promise is far better than what you have brought." Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj said to the slave: "Convey my greetings of peace to Abu al-Fadl (Sayyiduna al-Abbas) and tell him to empty one of the rooms of his houses for me so that I may come to him, for the real news is that which will make him happy." When the slave came back and reached the door, he said: "O Abu al-Fadl, rejoice!" Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) leapt up with joy, so much so that he kissed him between his eyes. Then, when the slave told him what Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj had said, he set the slave free. Then Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj came and informed him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) "has conquered Khaybar and taken their wealth as spoils; the shares (appointed) by Allah have been distributed in their wealth; and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has chosen Sayyidah Safiyyah bint Huyayy (may Allah be pleased with her) for himself and taken her in marriage. He (peace and blessings be upon him) gave her the choice that he (peace and blessings be upon him) would free her and she would become his (peace and blessings be upon him) wife, or she would join her family, and she preferred to be freed and become his (peace and blessings be upon him) wife." "But I came here to gather my wealth and take it away, so I asked permission from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that 'I may say whatever I wish.' So keep this matter hidden for three days, then say whatever you like." So his wife gathered all the jewellery and goods and gave them to him, and he set off with the wealth. After three days had passed, Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the wife of Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj and asked: "What has become of your husband?" She told him that he had left, and said: "O Abu al-Fadl, may Allah not grieve you; the news that reached you grieved us greatly too." Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Indeed, Allah will not grieve me, and praise be to Allah, nothing happened except what we loved. Al-Hajjaj told me that Allah has granted Khaybar to His Messenger as a conquest, the shares appointed by Allah have been distributed there, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has chosen Sayyidah Safiyyah for himself. If you have need of your husband, go after him." She said: "By Allah, I think you are telling the truth." He said: "I am telling the truth, and the matter is as I have told you." Then Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) went out and reached the gatherings of Quraysh. The people began saying to him in sympathy: "O Abu al-Fadl, may only good reach you (that is, may you be granted patience over this shock)." He said: "By the grace of Allah, only good has reached me. Al-Hajjaj told me that Allah has granted Khaybar to His Messenger as a conquest, the shares of Allah have been distributed there, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has chosen Sayyidah Safiyyah for himself. Al-Hajjaj asked me to keep it hidden for three days, because he had come to take his wealth." So Allah Almighty turned the grief and sorrow that had come over the Muslims back onto the polytheists, and those Muslims who had shut themselves in their houses in sorrow came out joyfully and went to Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), and Allah brought humiliation, rage and disgrace upon the polytheists.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، وَثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَمِعَ أَصْوَاتًا ، فَقَالَ : مَا هَذِهِ الْأَصْوَاتُ ؟ قَالُوا : النَّخْلُ يَأْبُرُونَهُ ، فَقَالَ : لَوْ لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا لَصَلَحَ ، قَالَ : فَأَمْسَكُوا فَلَمْ يَأْبُرُوا عَامَهُمْ ، فَصَارَ شِيصًا ، فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : إِذَا كَانَ مِنْ أَمْرِ دُنْيَاكُمْ فَشَأْنَكُمْ ، وَإِذَا كَانَ شَيْءٌ مِنْ أَمْرِ دِينِكُمْ فَإِلَيَّ .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) and Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard some voices and asked: "What are these voices?" The people said: "These are the date palms which people are pollinating (grafting)." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Even if they did not do it, they would still turn out well." The narrator said: Then the people held back from this practice and did not pollinate that year, as a result of which the dates became poor and spoilt. When this was mentioned to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If it is a matter of your worldly affairs, then you know it (better) yourselves; and if it is something from the matters of your religion, then it is (to be referred) to me."
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْوَكِيعِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَمُوتُ فَيَشْهَدُ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَهْلِ أَبْيَاتٍ مِنْ جِيرَانِهِ الْأَدْنَيْنَ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ إِلَّا خَيْرًا ، إِلَّا قَالَ اللهُ : قَدْ قَبِلْتُ عِلْمَكُمْ ، وَغَفَرْتُ لَهُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whenever a Muslim dies and the members of four households of his nearest neighbours testify in his favour that they know nothing about him but good and goodness, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, says: 'I have accepted your testimony and your knowledge, and I have also forgiven him those sins of his of which you had no knowledge.'"
حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارٌ أَبُو يَاسِرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَلَّامٌ أَبُو الْمُنْذِرِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : حُبِّبَ إِلَيَّ النِّسَاءُ وَالطِّيبُ ، وَجُعِلَ قُرَّةُ عَيْنِي فِي الصَّلَاةِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Women and perfume have been made beloved to me, and the coolness of my eyes has been placed in prayer."
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْحُومُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعِنْدَهُ بِنْتٌ لَهُ ، فَقَالَ أَنَسٌ : فَجَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَعَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَتِ ابْنَتُهُ : مَا أَقَلَّ حَيَاءَهَا ! فَقَالَ : هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْكِ ، عَرَضَتْ نَفْسَهَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ .
Thabit al-Bunani (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): I was with Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), and one of his daughters was also with him. Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) related that a woman came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and offered herself to him (peace and blessings be upon him) in marriage. The daughter of Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "How little modesty this woman has!" Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said to his daughter: "She is better than you; she offered herself to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) out of a desire to marry him (peace and blessings be upon him)."
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، عَنْ عَوَّامٍ الْبَصْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنَّ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَلَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ أَرْبَعَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ سَاعَةً ، لَيْسَ فِيهَا سَاعَةٌ إِلَّا وَلِلَّهِ فِيهَا سِتُّمِائَةِ عَتِيقٍ مِنَ النَّارِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ خَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَى الْحَسَنِ فَذَكَرْنَا لَهُ حَدِيثَ ثَابِتٍ ، فَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُهُ ، وَزَادَ فِيهِ : كُلُّهُمْ قَدِ اسْتَوْجَبَ النَّارَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed the day of Friday and the night of Friday consist of twenty-four hours, and there is no hour in them except that in it Allah Almighty frees six hundred (people) from the Fire of Hell." The narrator relates: Then we left Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) and went to al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) and mentioned this hadith of Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) to him. He said: "I too have heard it," and he also reported this addition in it: "Every one of them had become deserving of Hell."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يُوسُفَ الْجِيزِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ : اللَّهُمَّ أَقْبِلْ بِقَلْبِي إِلَى دِينِكَ ، وَاحْفَظْ مَنْ وَرَاءَنَا بِرَحْمَتِكَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say these words in his supplication: 'Allahumma aqbil bi-qalbi ila dinika, wahfaz man wara'ana bi-rahmatik' (O Allah, turn my heart towards Your religion, and by Your mercy protect those whom we have left behind (that is, our families and dependants)).
حَدَّثَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا هَاجَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَرْكَبُ - وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ خَلْفَهُ - وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ يَعْرِفُ الطَّرِيقَ بِاخْتِلَافِهِ إِلَى الشَّامِ، فَكَانَ يَمُرُّ بِالْقَوْمِ فَيَقُولُونَ: مَنْ هَذَا مَعَكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ: هَادٍ يَهْدِينِي. فَلَمَّا دَنَوْا مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ بَعْثَا إِلَى الْقَوْمِ الَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُوا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَى أَبِي أُمَامَةَ وَأَصْحَابِهِ، فَخَرَجُوا إِلَيْهِمَا فَقَالُوا: ادْخُلَا آمِنَيْنِ مُطَاعَيْنِ، فَدَخَلَا، قَالَ أَنَسٌ: «فَمَا رَأَيْتُ يَوْمًا قَطُّ أَنْوَرَ وَلَا أَحْسَنَ مِنْ يَوْمِ دَخَلَ فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَبُوبَكْرٍ الْمَدِينَةَ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) emigrated, he (peace and blessings be upon him) was riding a mount and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting behind him (peace and blessings be upon him). Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) knew the roads very well because of his repeated travels to and fro towards Syria. So whenever they passed by a group of people and they asked: "Who is this gentleman with you?" he would reply: "He is a guide who shows me the way." Then, when the two of them drew near to Madinah, they sent word to those people of the Ansar who had accepted Islam, namely Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) and his companions. They came out to receive the two of them and said: "Enter, the two of you, in safety and security, and as ones who will be obeyed." So the two of them entered. Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I never saw any day brighter or more beautiful than the day on which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) entered Madinah."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to come out to the mosque where the Muhajirun and the Ansar (may Allah be pleased with them) were seated, and none of them would raise his head (out of awe and majesty of him (peace and blessings be upon him)) from his ihtiba' (the sitting posture with a cloth or the hands wrapped around the knees) to look at him (peace and blessings be upon him), except Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both); he (peace and blessings be upon him) would smile at the two of them, and the two of them would smile at him (peace and blessings be upon him)."

He will say: 'No, by Allah, I do not recognise you. Woe to you! Who are you?' He will say: 'I am the one by whom you passed in the world, and you asked me for water and I gave you water to drink. So today intercede for me with your Lord.'" the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That man of Paradise will come into the presence of Allah Almighty at the time of his visit and meeting with Him and say: 'O my Lord, I looked down upon the people of the Fire, and a man from among them stood up and called out to me, saying: "O so-and-so, do you not recognise me?" I said: "No, by Allah, I do not recognise you. Who are you?" He said: "I am the one by whom you passed in the world; you asked me for water and I gave you to drink. So intercede for me with your Lord." Ya Rabbi, fa-shaffi'ni fihi (O my Lord, so accept my intercession for him).'" the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "So Allah Almighty will accept his intercession for him and bring him out of the Fire."

Jamilah, the umm walad of Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), relates that whenever Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) came to Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) would say: "O slave-girl, bring me some perfume so that I may rub it on my hands, for when the son of Umm Thabit comes, he is not satisfied until he has kissed my hands."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse to us: "Indeed, those who say, 'Our Lord is Allah,' and then remain steadfast", and he said: "Many people have said it, but then most of them disbelieved.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A man from the people of Paradise will be brought, and Allah Almighty will say to him: 'O son of Adam, how did you find your abode?' He will say: 'O my Lord, the best of abodes.' Allah Almighty will say: 'Ask and wish.' He will say: 'My only wish is that I be sent back to the world and be killed ten times in the way of Allah.' He will wish this because of the excellence of martyrdom that he sees. Then a man from the people of Hell will be brought, and Allah Almighty will say to him: 'O son of Adam, how did you find your abode?' He will say: 'O my Lord, the worst of abodes.' Allah Almighty will say: 'If you had the earth full of gold, would you give it as a ransom?' He will say: 'Yes, O my Lord.' Allah Almighty will say: 'You lie; I asked of you something far easier than this.' Then he will be returned to Hell."
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : مَا مِنْ نَفْسٍ تَمُوتُ لَهَا عِنْدَ اللهِ خَيْرٌ ، مَا يَسُرُّهَا أَنْ تَرْجِعَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا ، إِلَّا الشَّهِيدُ ، فَإِنَّهُ يَسُرُّهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى الدُّنْيَا فَيُقْتَلَ ؛ لِمَا يَرَى مِنْ فَضْلِ الشَّهَادَةِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no soul that dies having good (a place of good) established for it with Allah that would be pleased to return to the world, except the martyr; for, because of the excellence and rank of martyrdom that he witnesses, he would love to be sent back to the world so that he may be killed (in the way of Allah) again."
حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِالْبُرَاقِ ، وَهُوَ دَابَّةٌ أَبْيَضُ ، فَوْقَ الْحِمَارِ وَدُونَ الْبَغْلِ ، يَضَعُ حَافِرَهُ حَيْثُ يَنْتَهِي طَرَفُهُ ، قَالَ : فَرَكِبْتُهُ حَتَّى سَارَ بِي ، حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ عَلَى بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ ، فَرَبَطْتُ الدَّابَّةَ بِالْحَلْقَةِ الَّتِي تَرْبِطُ بِهَا الْأَنْبِيَاءُ ، ثُمَّ دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّيْتُ فِيهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجْتُ فَأَتَانِي جِبْرِيلُ بِإِنَاءٍ مِنْ خَمْرٍ وَإِنَاءٍ مِنْ لَبَنٍ ، فَأَخَذْتُ اللَّبَنَ ، فَقَالَ لِي جِبْرِيلُ : اخْتَرْتَ الْفِطْرَةَ .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that al-Buraq was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). It is a white animal, larger than a donkey and smaller than a mule, which places its hoof wherever its sight ends. He said: "I mounted it and it travelled with me until I reached Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem). I tied the animal to the ring to which the prophets tie (their mounts). Then I entered the mosque and prayed two rak'ahs in it. Then I came out, and Jibril brought me a vessel of wine and a vessel of milk. I took the milk, and Jibril said to me: 'You have chosen the fitrah (natural disposition).' Then he took us up to the lowest heaven. Jibril asked for it to be opened, and it was said: 'Who are you?' He said: 'Jibril.' It was said: 'Who is with you?' He said: 'Muhammad.' It was said: 'Has he been sent for?' He said: 'He has been sent for.' So it was opened for us, and there I was with Adam; he welcomed me and prayed for good for me. Then he took us up to the second heaven. Jibril asked for it to be opened, and it was said: 'Who are you?' He said: 'Jibril.' It was said: 'And who is with you?' He said: 'Muhammad.' It was said: 'Has he been sent for?' He said: 'He has been sent for.' So it was opened for us, and there I was with the two maternal cousins, Yahya and Isa; they welcomed me and prayed for good for me. Then he took us up to the third heaven. Jibril asked for it to be opened, and it was said: 'Who are you?' He said: 'Jibril.' It was said: 'And who is with you?' He said: 'Muhammad.' It was said: 'Has he been sent for?' He said: 'He has been sent for.' So it was opened for us, and there I was with Yusuf, and he had been given half of (all) beauty; he welcomed me and prayed for good for me. Then we were taken up to the fourth heaven. Jibril asked for it to be opened, and it was said: 'Who are you?' He said: 'Jibril.' It was said: 'And who is with you?' He said: 'Muhammad.' It was said: 'Has he been sent for?' He said: 'He has been sent for.' So it was opened for us, and there I was with Idris; he welcomed me and prayed for good for me." He said: "Allah says: 'And We raised him to a high station.' Then he took us up to the fifth heaven. Jibril asked for it to be opened, and it was said: 'Who are you?' He said: 'Jibril.' It was said: 'And who is with you?' He said: 'Muhammad.' It was said: 'Has he been sent for?' He said: 'He has been sent for.' So it was opened for us, and there was Harun; he welcomed me and prayed for good for me. Then he took us up to the sixth heaven. Jibril asked for it to be opened, and it was said: 'Who are you?' He said: 'Jibril.' It was said: 'And who is with you?' He said: 'Muhammad.' It was said: 'Has he been sent for?' He said: 'He has been sent for.' So it was opened for us, and there I was with Ibrahim, and he was leaning his back against the House, which seventy thousand angels enter every day and then never return to it. Then he took me to Sidrat al-Muntaha (the Lote Tree of the Utmost Boundary). Its leaves were like the ears of elephants and its fruits like large earthen jars. When there covered it, by the command of Allah, what covered it, it changed, and none of Allah's creation is able to describe it because of its beauty." He said: "Then there was revealed to me what was revealed, and fifty prayers in every day were made obligatory upon me." He said: "I went down to Musa, and he said: 'What has been made obligatory upon your Ummah?' I said: 'Fifty prayers in every day and night.' He said: 'Your Ummah will not be able to bear that, so go back to your Lord and ask Him for a reduction.' So I went back to my Lord and said: 'O my Lord, lighten it for my Ummah.' He reduced five for me. I returned to Musa, and he said: 'What did you do?' I said: 'He reduced five for me.' He said: 'Your Ummah will not be able to bear that; go back to your Lord and ask Him for a reduction.' I kept going back to my Lord, asking Him for a reduction, between my Lord and Musa, until He said: 'O Muhammad, they are five prayers in every day and night, each prayer counting as ten, so that makes fifty prayers. Whoever intends a good deed and does not do it, one good deed is recorded for him, and if he does it, ten are recorded. Whoever intends an evil deed and does not do it, nothing is recorded against him, and if he does it, one single evil deed is recorded.' Then I returned to Musa and informed him, and he said: 'Go back to your Lord and ask Him for a reduction.' I said: 'I have gone back to my Lord so often that I feel shy (before Him).'"
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ حَارِثَةَ خَرَجَ نَظَّارًا فَأَتَاهُ سَهْمٌ فَقَتَلَهُ ، فَقَالَتْ أُمُّهُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَدْ عَرَفْتَ مَوْضِعَ حَارِثَةَ مِنِّي ، فَإِنْ كَانَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ صَبَرْتُ ، وَإِلَّا رَأَيْتَ مَا أَصْنَعُ ، قَالَ : يَا أُمَّ حَارِثَةَ ، إِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ بِجَنَّةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَلَكِنَّهَا جِنَانٌ كَثِيرَةٌ ، وَإِنَّ حَارِثَةَ لَفِي أَفْضَلِهَا . أَوْ قَالَ : فِي أَعَلَى الْفِرْدَوْسِ . قَالَ يَزِيدُ : أَنَا أَشُكُّ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Harithah (may Allah be pleased with him) went out (on the battlefield) to observe the situation, and a stray arrow struck him and killed him (as a martyr). Thereupon his mother, Sayyidah Umm Harithah (may Allah be pleased with her), said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), you know well the place Harithah held with me. If he is in Paradise, I will be patient; otherwise you will see what I do (in my grief)." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Umm Harithah, it is not one single Paradise; rather they are many gardens, and Harithah is certainly in the most excellent of them", or he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is in the highest Firdaws." The narrator of the hadith, Yazid (may Allah have mercy on him), said: I am in doubt (about these last words).
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاصَلَ آخِرَ الشَّهْرِ وَوَاصَلَ نَاسٌ ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : لَوْ مُدَّ لَنَا الشَّهْرُ لَوَاصَلْتُ وِصَالًا ، يَدَعُ الْمُتَعَمِّقُونَ تَعَمُّقَهُمْ ، إِنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ مِثْلِي ، إِنِّي أَبِيتُ يُطْعِمُنِي رَبِّي وَيَسْقِينِي .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) fasted continuously (that is, observed wisal) in the last days of the month, and some other people (following him) also began to fast continuously. When this reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If this month had been extended for us, I would have fasted continuously so long that these extremists would abandon their excess. Indeed, you are not like me; I spend the night in such a state that my Lord feeds me and gives me drink."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to raise his blessed hands so high in supplication that the whiteness of his (peace and blessings be upon him) armpits could be seen."

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) was saying to a woman of his household: "Do you know so-and-so? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by her while she was weeping at a grave. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Fear Allah and be patient.' Not recognising him (peace and blessings be upon him), she said: 'Leave me alone; you do not care about my calamity.' Then she was told that it was the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and a fear like death seized her. She came to his (peace and blessings be upon him) door and found no doorkeeper there. She said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I did not recognise you.' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'True patience is at the first shock.'"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I entered Paradise and heard a footstep (of someone walking there).

قَالَ أَنَسٌ : وَكُنْتُ أَرَى أَثَرَ الْمِخْيَطِ فِي صَدْرِهِ ، وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ حَمَّادٌ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتَاهُ آتٍ .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Jibril (peace be upon him) came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was playing with the children. He took hold of him (peace and blessings be upon him), laid him down, split open his blessed chest, took out a clot of blood from the heart and said: "This was Satan's share in you." Then he washed the heart in a basin of gold with Zamzam water, set it right, and put it back in its place. The children ran to his (peace and blessings be upon him) foster mother and said: "Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) has been killed." She came to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and his colour had changed. Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I used to see the mark of the stitching on his (peace and blessings be upon him) chest. Hammad (may Allah have mercy on him) sometimes narrated the words "someone came" instead of "Jibril came".
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، وَحُمَيْدٌ ، وَثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ عُرَيْنَةَ قَدِمُوا الْمَدِينَةَ فَاجْتَوَوْهَا ، فَبَعَثَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي إِبِلِ الصَّدَقَةِ ، فَقَالَ : اشْرَبُوا أَبْوَالَهَا وَأَلْبَانَهَا ، فَقَتَلُوا رَاعِي رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَاسْتَاقُوا الْإِبِلَ ، وَارْتَدُّوا عَنِ الْإِسْلَامِ ، فَأُتِيَ بِهِمْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَطَعَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ مِنْ خِلَافٍ ، وَسَمَلَ أَعْيُنَهُمْ وَأَلْقَاهُمْ بِالْحَرَّةِ .
قَالَ أَنَسٌ : قَدْ كُنْتُ أَرَى أَحَدَهُمْ يَكِيدُ الْأَرْضَ بِفِيهِ حَتَّى مَاتُوا . وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ حَمَّادٌ : يَكْدُمُ الْأَرْضَ بِفِيهِ حَتَّى مَاتُوا .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that some people of the tribe of Uraynah came to Madinah, but its climate did not suit them. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent them to the camels of charity and told them to drink their milk and urine. Then they killed the herdsman of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), drove off the camels and apostatised from Islam. When they were brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) had their hands and feet cut off on opposite sides, had their eyes put out, and had them thrown into the Harrah. Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I used to see one of them digging at the earth with his mouth, until they died. Hammad (may Allah have mercy on him) sometimes narrated the words: he was biting the earth with his mouth, until they died.
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّاسَ قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، هَلَكَ الْمَالُ ، قَحَطْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَهَلَكَ الْمَالُ ، فَاسْتَسْقِ لَنَا ، فَقَامَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَاسْتَسْقَى - وَوَصَفَ حَمَّادٌ بَسْطَ يَدَيْهِ حِيَالَ صَدْرِهِ ، وَبَطْنُ كَفَّيْهِ مِمَّا يَلِي الْأَرْضَ - وَمَا فِي السَّمَاءِ قَزَعَةٌ ، فَمَا انْصَرَفَ حَتَّى أَهَمَّتِ الشَّابَّ الْقَوِيَّ نَفْسُهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ ، قَالَ : فَمُطِرْنَا إِلَى الْجُمُعَةِ الْأُخْرَى ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، تَهَدَّمَ الْبُنْيَانُ ، وَانْقَطَعَ الرُّكْبَانُ ، فَادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَكْشِفَهَا عَنَّا ، فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَلَا عَلَيْنَا ، قَالَ : فَانْجَابَتْ حَتَّى كَانَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ كَأَنَّهَا فِي إِكْلِيلٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the people said: "O Messenger of Allah, our wealth has perished and we have been struck by drought; O Messenger of Allah, the livestock have perished, so pray to Allah for rain for us." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood on the pulpit on the day of Friday and made the prayer for rain (istisqa'). The narrator of the hadith, Hammad (may Allah have mercy on him), describing the manner of his (peace and blessings be upon him) supplication, said that he (peace and blessings be upon him) had spread both his hands level with his chest, with his palms facing the ground. At that time there was not even a patch of cloud in the sky, yet he (peace and blessings be upon him) had not yet finished when such heavy rain began that even a strong young man found it hard to reach his home; then it rained on us continuously until the next Friday. Thereupon the people said again: "O Messenger of Allah, (because of the heavy rain) the houses have begun to collapse, and with the roads cut off the travellers' movement has stopped, so pray to Allah to remove this rain from us." On hearing this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled and supplicated: 'Allahumma hawalayna wa la 'alayna' (O Allah, (send rain) around us and do not send it (as a burden) upon us). Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said that (by the blessing of his (peace and blessings be upon him) supplication) the clouds immediately parted, and the city of Madinah (under a clear sky amid the clouds) stood out as though it were inside a crown or halo of clouds.

فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ، أَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَى مَا تَقُولُ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ ، تَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَتِّلْ مَنْ بَعْدَنَا مِنَ الطُّلَقَاءِ ، انْهَزَمُوا بِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَالَ : يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ إِنَّ اللهَ قَدْ كَفَى وَأَحْسَنَ .
فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ، أَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَى مَا تَقُولُ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ ، تَقُولُ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَتِّلْ مَنْ بَعْدَنَا مِنَ الطُّلَقَاءِ ، انْهَزَمُوا بِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَالَ : يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ إِنَّ اللهَ قَدْ كَفَى وَأَحْسَنَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of Hunayn, Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) was with Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him), and she had a dagger with her. Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: "O Umm Sulaym, what is this?" She said: "If any disbeliever comes near me, I will rip open his belly with it." Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Prophet of Allah, do you hear what Umm Sulaym is saying?" Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O Messenger of Allah, kill those tulaqa' (freed ones) who accepted Islam after us; they fled, abandoning you." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Umm Sulaym, Allah Almighty has sufficed and has arranged things in the best way."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went to visit one of his Companions who was ill and who had become (from weakness) as frail as a chick. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: "Did you ask Allah Almighty for anything in particular?" He said: "Yes, I said: 'Allahumma ma kunta mu'aqibi fi al-akhirati fa-'ajjilhu li fi al-dunya' (O Allah, whatever punishment You were going to give me in the Hereafter, give it to me quickly in this world)." Thereupon the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You do not have the strength to bear the punishment of Allah. Why did you not say: 'Allahumma atina fi al-dunya hasanatan wa fi al-akhirati hasanatan wa qina 'adhab al-nar' (O Allah, give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire)?" (This supplication carries the meaning of the Qur'anic verse "Our Lord, give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.")

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) visited a man of the Ansar who was ill and said to him: "O maternal uncle, say: 'La ilaha illallah' (There is none worthy of worship except Allah)." He asked: "(In relation to you) am I a maternal uncle or a paternal uncle?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather you are a maternal uncle." He said: "Is it better for me to say this word?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes."
