Hadith of Safwan ibn Assal al-Muradi
Hadith 18089
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ بَهْدَلَةَ ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ ، قَالَ : غَدَوْتُ عَلَى صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْن ، فَقَالَ : : مَا جَاءَ بِكَ ؟ قُلْتُ : ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ ، قَالَ : أَلَا أُبَشِّرُكَ ؟ وَرَفَعَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَتَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًا بِمَا يَطْلُبُ " . فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ.
Zirr bin Hubaish (may Allah have mercy on him) says that one day I went to Hazrat Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him) to ask about the ruling of wiping over leather socks. He asked, "What brings you here?" I said, "I have come in pursuit of knowledge." He said, "Shall I not give you glad tidings? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Allah's angels spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge, expressing happiness for what he seeks.'" Then he mentioned the entire hadith.
Hadith 18090
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ بَهْدَلَةَ ، حَدَّثَنِي زِرُّ بْنُ حُبَيْشٍ ، قَالَ : وَفَدْتُ فِي خِلَافَةِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ، وَإِنَّمَا حَمَلَنِي عَلَى الْوِفَادَةِ لُقِيُّ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَأَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَلَقِيتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : هَلْ رَأَيْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، " وَغَزَوْتُ مَعَهُ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ غَزْوَةً " .
Zirr bin Hubaysh (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I came to Madinah Munawwarah during the caliphate of Hazrat Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him). The purpose of the journey was to meet Hazrat Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) and other noble companions (may Allah be pleased with them). I met Hazrat Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him). I asked him, "Have you seen the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied, "Yes! I have participated in twelve (12) battles with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)."
Hadith 18091
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيَّ ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ ، فَقَالَ : كُنَّا نَكُونُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، " فَيَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ ، وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَبَوْلٍ وَنَوْمٍ " . وَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ جَهْوَرِيُّ الصَّوْتِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، الرَّجُلُ يُحِبُّ الْقَوْمَ وَلَمَّا يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : : " الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ " .
Zirr bin Hubaish (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I presented myself before Hazrat Safwan (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him about the ruling of wiping over leather socks. He said: We were with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey, and he used to command us not to remove our leather socks for three days, except if someone became junub (in a state of major ritual impurity). But for urination, defecation, and sleep, there was no command to remove them. And a loud-voiced Bedouin came and said, "O Muhammad! (peace and blessings be upon him) If a man loves a people but is not included among them, what is the ruling?" The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A person (on the Day of Judgment) will be with those whom he loves.
Hadith 18092
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ . ح وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ يَزِيدُ ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَلَمَةَ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ ، قَالَ يَزِيدُ : الْمُرَادِيِّ ، قَالَ : قَالَ : يَهُودِيٌّ لِصَاحِبِهِ : اذْهَبْ بِنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَقَالَ يَزِيدُ : إِلَى هَذَا النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى نَسْأَلَهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ : وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى تِسْعَ آيَاتٍ سورة الإسراء آية 101 ، فَقَالَ : لَا تَقُلْ لَهُ نَبِيٌّ ، فَإِنَّهُ إِنْ سَمِعَكَ لَصَارَتْ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَعْيُنٍ . فَسَأَلَاهُ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا تُشْرِكُوا بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا ، وَلَا تَسْرِقُوا ، وَلَا تَزْنُوا ، وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ، وَلَا تَسْحَرُوا ، وَلَا تَأْكُلُوا الرِّبَا ، وَلَا تَمْشُوا بِبَرِيءٍ إِلَى ذِي سُلْطَانٍ لِيَقْتُلَهُ ، وَلَا تَقْذِفُوا مُحْصَنَةً ، أَوْ قَالَ : تَفِرُّوا مِنَ الزَّحْفِ شُعْبَةُ الشَّاكُّ ، وَأَنْتُمْ يَا يَهُودُ عَلَيْكُمْ خَاصَّةً أَنْ لَا تَعْتَدُوا " قَالَ يَزِيدُ : " تَعْدُوا فِي السَّبْتِ " . فَقَبَّلَا يَدَهُ وَرِجْلَهُ ، قَالَ يَزِيدُ : يَدَيْهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ ، وَقَالاَ : نَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ نَبِيٌّ . قَالَ : " فَمَا يَمْنَعُكُمَا أَنْ تَتَّبِعَانِي ؟ " قَالاَ : إِنَّ دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام دَعَا أَنْ لَا يَزَالَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ نَبِيٌّ ، وَإِنَّا نَخْشَى قَالَ يَزِيدُ : إِنْ أَسْلَمْنَا أَنْ تَقْتُلَنَا يَهُودُ.
It is narrated from Hazrat Safwan (may Allah be pleased with him) that once a Jew said to his companion, "Come! Let us go to this Prophet and ask him about this verse: 'We gave Moses nine clear signs.'" His companion said, "Do not call him a Prophet, because if he hears this, he will have four eyes." Nevertheless, they asked the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this verse. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), explaining its details, said: "Do not associate anyone with Allah, do not steal, do not commit adultery, do not unjustly kill anyone whom Allah has forbidden to kill, do not practice magic, do not consume usury, do not hand over an innocent person to a powerful one so that he may kill him, do not accuse a chaste person of adultery (or he said: do not flee from the battlefield), and O Jews! You are especially commanded not to transgress regarding the matter of the Sabbath." Hearing this, both of them kissed the blessed hand and feet of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "We bear witness that you are the Prophet." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Then why do you not follow me?" They replied, "Hazrat Dawood (peace be upon him) prayed that prophets would always be born in his lineage. We fear that if we accept Islam, the Jews will kill us."
Hadith 18093
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ أَبِي النَّجُودِ ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيَّ ، فَقَالَ : مَا جَاءَ بِكَ ؟ قَالَ : فَقُلْتُ : جِئْتُ أَطْلُبُ الْعِلْمَ ، قَالَ : فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " مَا مِنْ خَارِجٍ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْتٍ فِي طَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ ، إِلَّا وَضَعَتْ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًا بِمَا يَصْنَعُ " . قَالَ : جِئْتُ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ بِالْخُفَّيْنِ . قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، لَقَدْ كُنْتُ فِي الْجَيْشِ الَّذِينَ بَعَثَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، " فَأَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَمْسَحَ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ إِذَا نَحْنُ أَدْخَلْنَاهُمَا عَلَى طُهْرٍ ثَلَاثًا إِذَا سَافَرْنَا ، وَيَوْمًا وَلَيْلَةً إِذَا أَقَمْنَا ، ولا نَخْلَعَهَما من غائطٍ ولا بول ولا نوم ، وَلَا نَخْلَعَهُمَا إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ " . قَالَ : وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ بِالْمَغْرِبِ بَابًا مَفْتُوحًا لِلتَّوْبَةِ ، مَسِيرَتُهُ سَبْعُونَ سَنَةً ، لَا يُغْلَقُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ نَحْوِهِ " .
Zirr bin Hubaish (may Allah have mercy on him) says that one day I went to Hazrat Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him) to ask about the ruling of wiping over the leather socks (khuffain). He asked, "What brings you here?" I said, "I have come in pursuit of knowledge." He said, "Shall I not give you glad tidings? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'The angels of Allah spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge, expressing happiness for his pursuit of knowledge.'" Then he mentioned the entire hadith. Zirr bin Hubaish (may Allah have mercy on him) says, "I said to him, 'I have come to ask you about wiping over the leather socks.'" He said, "Alright, I was in that army which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us that if we wore the leather socks in a state of purity and we were travelers, we could wipe over them for three days, and if we were residents, then for one day and night, except if someone becomes junub (in a state requiring major ritual purification). But for urination, defecation, and sleep, there was no command to remove them." And I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "In the west, there is a door which is open for repentance; its width is the distance of seventy years. It will not be closed until the sun rises from the west."
Hadith 18094
حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي رَوْقٍ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ ، أَنَّ أَبَا الْغَرِيفِ حَدَّثَهُمْ ، قَالَ : قَالَ صَفْوَانُ : بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ ، قَالَ : " سِيرُوا بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، تُقَاتِلُونَ أَعْدَاءَ اللَّهِ ، لَا تَغُلُّوا ، وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا وَلِيدًا ، وَلِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ يَمْسَحُ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ إِذَا أَدْخَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى طُهُورٍ ، وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Safwan (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent us with a detachment and said: Set out in the name of Allah, in the way of Allah, and fight against the enemies of Allah. Do not be treacherous and do not kill any child. And it is permitted for a traveler to wipe over his leather socks for three days and nights, provided he put them on while in a state of ablution, and for a resident, the permission is for one day and night.
Hadith 18095
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ ، سَمِعَ زِرَّ بْنَ حُبَيْشٍ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيَّ ، فَقَالَ : مَا جَاءَ بِكَ ؟ فَقُلْتُ : ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ ، قَالَ : " فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًا بِمَا يَطْلُبُ " . قُلْتُ : حَكَّ فِي نَفْسِي مَسْحٌ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً : أَوْ فِي صَدْرِي بَعْدَ الْغَائِطِ وَالْبَوْلِ ، وَكُنْتَ امْرَأً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَتَيْتُكَ أَسْأَلُكَ هَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْهُ فِي ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، كَانَ " يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ ، وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ وَبَوْلٍ وَنَوْمٍ " . قَالَ : قُلْتُ لَهُ : هَلْ سَمِعْتَهُ يَذْكُرُ الْهَوَى ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَهُ فِي مَسِيرَةٍ ، إِذْ نَادَاهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ بِصَوْتٍ جَهْوَرِيٍّ ، فَقَالَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، فَقُلْنَا : وَيْحَكَ ، اغْضُضْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَ ، فَإِنَّكَ قَدْ نُهِيتَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : وَاللَّهِ لَا أَغْضُضُ مِنْ صَوْتِي ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " هَاءَ " ، وَأَجَابَهُ عَلَى نَحْوٍ مِنْ مَسْأَلَتِهِ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً : وَأَجَابَهُ نَحْوًا مِمَّا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ، فَقَالَ : أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا وَلَمَّا يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ ؟ قَالَ : " هُوَ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ " . قَالَ : ثُمَّ لَمْ يَزَلْ يُحَدِّثُنَا حَتَّى قَالَ : " إِنَّ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَغْرِبِ لَبَابًا مَسِيرَةُ عَرْضِهِ سَبْعُونَ أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ عَامًا ، فَتَحَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِلتَّوْبَةِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ، وَلَا يُغْلِقُهُ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْه " .
Zar bin Hubaysh (may Allah have mercy on him) says that one day I presented myself before Hazrat Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him), so he asked, "What brings you here?" I said, "I have come in pursuit of knowledge." He said, "Allah’s angels, out of joy for the seeker of knowledge, spread their wings for him." Zar bin Hubaysh (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I presented myself before Hazrat Safwan (may Allah be pleased with him) and said to him, "I have some doubt in my heart regarding wiping over leather socks after urinating or defecating. Since you are a companion of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I have come to ask you whether you heard anything from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this?" He replied, "We used to be with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on journeys, and he would command us not to remove our leather socks for three days, except if someone became junub (in a state of major ritual impurity). But for urination, defecation, and sleep, there was no command to remove them." I asked him, "Did you hear the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mention 'desire'?" He replied, "Yes! Once we were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey when a loud-voiced Bedouin came and said, 'O Muhammad! (peace and blessings be upon him)' We said to him, 'Hey! Lower your voice, for it has been forbidden.' He said, 'I will not lower my voice.' The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, 'Say what you wish,' and answered him in the same manner as he had asked. He said, 'Tell me, if a man loves a people but is not among them, what is the ruling?' The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, 'A person (on the Day of Judgment) will be with those whom he loves.' Then he continued narrating hadiths to us until he said, 'In the west there is a door which is open for repentance, its width is seventy years’ journey. Allah opened it on the day He created the heavens and the earth, and it will not be closed until the sun rises from the west.'"
Hadith 18096
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ لِآخَرَ : انْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى هَذَا النَّبِيِّ ، قَالَ : لَا تَقُلْ هَذَا ، فَإِنَّهُ لَوْ سَمِعَهَا ، كَانَ لَهُ أَرْبَعُ أَعْيُنٍ ، قَالَ : فَانْطَلَقْنَا إِلَيْهِ ، فَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ : وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى تِسْعَ آيَاتٍ بَيِّنَاتٍ سورة الإسراء آية 101 ، قَالَ : " لَا تُشْرِكُوا بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا ، وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ، وَلَا تَسْرِقُوا ، وَلَا تَزْنُوا ، وَلَا تَفِرُّوا مِنَ الزَّحْفِ ، وَلَا تَسْحَرُوا ، وَلَا تَأْكُلُوا الرِّبَا ، وَلَا تُدْلُوا بِبَرِيءٍ إِلَى ذِي سُلْطَانٍ لِيَقْتُلَهُ ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ خَاصَّةً يَهُودُ أَنْ لَا تَعْتَدُوا فِي السَّبْتِ " ، فَقَالاَ : نَشْهَدُ إِنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

You are especially commanded not to transgress regarding the matter of the Sabbath." Hearing this, both of them said, "We bear witness that you are indeed a Prophet."
Hadith 18097
حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ ، وَعَفَّانُ ، قَالاَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو رَوْقٍ عَطِيَّةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْغَرِيفِ ، قَالَ عَفَّانُ : أَبُو الْغَرِيفِ عَبْيدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ خَلِيفَةَ ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ ، قَالَ : بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ ، فَقَالَ : " اغْزُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، وَلَا تَغُلُّوا ، وَلَا تَغْدِرُوا ، وَلَا تُمَثِّلُوا ، وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا وَلِيدًا ، لِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثٌ مَسْحٌ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ ، وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ " . قَالَ عَفَّانُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ : بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
It is narrated from Hazrat Safwan (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent us with a detachment and said: Set out in the name of Allah, in the way of Allah, and fight against the enemies of Allah. Do not be treacherous, do not deceive, do not mutilate bodies, and do not kill any child. And it is permitted for a traveler to wipe over his leather socks for three days and nights, and for a resident, the permission is for one day and night.

It is narrated from Hazrat Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah's angels spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge, expressing happiness over the pursuit of knowledge.

حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ بَهْدَلَةَ ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيَّ ، فَقَالَ : مَا جَاءَ بِكَ ؟ فَقُلْتُ : ابْتِغَاءُ الْعِلْمِ ، فَقَالَ : لَقَدْ بَلَغَنِي " أَنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَتَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًا بِمَا يَفْعَلُ " ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ . فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ " . قَالَ : فَمَا بَرِحَ يُحَدِّثُنِي حَتَّى حَدَّثَنِي " أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ جَعَلَ بِالْمَغْرِبِ بَابًا مَسِيرَةُ عَرْضِهِ سَبْعُونَ عَامًا لِلتَّوْبَةِ ، لَا يُغْلَقُ مَا لَمْ تَطْلُعْ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ قِبَلِهِ " . وَذَلِكَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : يَوْمَ يَأْتِي بَعْضُ آيَاتِ رَبِّكَ لا يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا سورة الأنعام آية 158.
Zar bin Hubaysh (may Allah have mercy on him) says that one day I went to Hazrat Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him), so he asked, "What brings you here?" I said, "I have come in pursuit of knowledge." He said, "Allah's angels, out of joy for the seeker of knowledge, spread their wings for him." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "A person (on the Day of Judgment) will be with the one whom he loves." Then he continued narrating hadiths to us until he said, "In the west there is a door which is open for repentance, its width is seventy years' journey. Allah opened it on the day He created the heavens and the earth; it will not be closed until the sun rises from the west. This is the meaning of the statement of Allah the Exalted: 'The Day when some of the signs of your Lord will come...' (the verse)."
