Hadith 23934
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ ثُمَامَةَ ، قَالَ : خَرَجْنَا مَعَ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ إِلَى أَرْضِ الرُّومِ ، وَكَانَ عَامِلًا لِمُعَاوِيَةَ عَلَى الدَّرْبِ ، فَأُصِيبَ ابْنُ عَمٍّ لَنَا فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ فَضَالَةُ ، وَقَامَ عَلَى حُفْرَتِهِ حَتَّى وَارَاهُ ، فَلَمَّا سَوَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ حُفْرَتَهُ ، قَالَ : أَخِفُّوا عَنْهُ ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ " يَأْمُرُنَا بِتَسْوِيَةِ الْقُبُورِ " .
Thumamah says that we set out with Hazrat Fadala bin Ubaid (may Allah be pleased with him) towards the land of Rome. He was the governor of the place "Darb" on behalf of Hazrat Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him). One of our paternal cousins was martyred during this time. Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) led his funeral prayer and stood by his grave. When his body was covered with soil and he saw that we had leveled his grave, he said: "Keep it leveled, because the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to level the graves."

It is narrated from Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us. On that day, he would generally be fasting.

The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Yes! But today I vomited."

Thumamah says that we set out towards the land of Rome with Hazrat Fadala bin Ubaid (may Allah be pleased with him)...

Hadith 23937
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمُقْرِئُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَيْوَةُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو هَانِئٍ حُمَيْدُ بْنُ هَانِئٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْجَنْبِيِّ حَدَّثَنَا ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ فَضَالَةَ بْنَ عُبَيْدٍ صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلًا يَدْعُو فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " عَجِلَ هَذَا " ، ثُمَّ دَعَاهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ وَلِغَيْرِهِ : " إِذَا صَلَّى أَحَدُكُمْ ، فَلْيَبْدَأْ بِتَحْمِيدِ رَبِّهِ وَالثَّنَاءِ عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ لِيُصَلِّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، ثُمَّ لِيَدْعُ بَعْدُ بِمَا شَاءَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard a man supplicating in prayer, but he neither mentioned Allah nor sent blessings upon the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that he acted hastily. Then he said to him and to others that when any of you prays, he should first praise and glorify his Lord, then send blessings and peace upon the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and after that, he may supplicate for whatever he wishes.

It is narrated from Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) that several times the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would be leading people in prayer, and some people who were from among the "Ashab al-Suffa" would collapse while standing due to hunger, and the Bedouins would say that they had gone mad. And the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), after finishing the prayer, would turn towards them and say, "If you knew what blessings Allah has for you, you would wish that your poverty and hunger be increased." During those days, I was also with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

Abdur Rahman bin Muhairiz says that once I asked Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him), "Tell me, is it Sunnah to hang the thief's hand around his neck?" He replied, "Yes! I have seen that a thief was brought to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) ordered that his hand be cut off, then ordered that it be hung around his neck." Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) was among the participants of the Pledge of Ridwan. Imam Ahmad's (may Allah have mercy on him) son Abdullah says, "I asked Yahya bin Ma'in, 'Have you heard any hadith from Umar bin Ali Maqdami?' He asked, 'What does he have?' I told him about the hadith of Hazrat Fadala bin Ubaid (may Allah be pleased with him) regarding hanging the thief's hand around his neck. He said, 'No, this hadith has been narrated to us by Affan.'"

It is narrated from Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) that we participated in the Battle of Tabuk along with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). There were great difficulties regarding mounts. People complained to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made a round among those mounts, then said to the people, "Take the name of Allah and pass before me." People began to pass their mounts in front of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) started supplicating for them: "O Allah! Mount those who set out in Your path. Surely, You are capable of making both the strong and the weak ride, on dry and wet, on sea and land, everywhere." By the blessing of this supplication, by the time we reached the city, the riding animals had become so energetic that they began to snatch their reins from our hands. Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the supplication of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the strong and the weak was fulfilled right there. As for the dry and the wet, when we reached Syria and fought the battle of the island of Cyprus in the sea, I saw boats in the sea that were safe from drowning. This was the supplication of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and I understood it then.

It is narrated from Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught me a ruqyah (spiritual healing) practice and permitted me to perform it on whomever I deemed appropriate.

O Allah! Just as Your command prevails in the heavens, let it prevail on the earth. Send down Your mercy upon us. O Allah, Lord of the pure people! Forgive our slips, sins, and mistakes. Send down Your mercy and grant healing to such-and-such person who is afflicted with suffering, so that he may become healthy." Say this three times, then recite the Mu'awwidhatayn (Surah Al-Falaq and Surah An-Naas) three times.

It is narrated from Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) that once in Khaybar, a necklace was presented to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), in which gold and jewels were set. This was war booty that was being sold. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that the gold attached to the necklace be separated. Then he said that gold should be sold for gold with equal weight.
Hadith 23969
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي الْجُرَيْرِيُّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَحَلَ إِلَى فَضَالَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ وَهُوَ بِمِصْرَ ، فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَمُدُّ نَاقَةً لَهُ ، فَقَالَ : إِنِّي لَمْ آتِكَ زَائِرًا ، إِنَّمَا أَتَيْتُكَ لِحَدِيثٍ بَلَغَنِي عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجَوْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عِنْدَكَ مِنْهُ عِلْمٌ فَرَآهُ شَعِثًا ، فَقَالَ : مَا لِي أَرَاكَ شَعِثًا وَأَنْتَ أَمِيرُ الْبَلَدِ ؟ ! قَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ " يَنْهَانَا عَنْ كَثِيرٍ مِنَ الْإِرْفَاهِ ، وَرَآهُ حَافِيًا ، فَقَالَ : مَا لِي أَرَاكَ حَافِيًا ، قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَحْتَفِيَ أَحْيَانًا " .
A companion of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) traveled to Hazrat Fadala bin Ubaid (may Allah be pleased with him) because he lived in Egypt. When he reached him, Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) was pulling his she-camel. The visitor said, "I have not come to meet you just for the sake of meeting; I have only come to ask you about a hadith which I have learned is related to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and I hope that you have knowledge of it." The visitor saw that Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) appeared disheveled, so he asked, "Despite being the governor of the city, why do you appear in such a disheveled state?" He replied, "The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) forbade us from living in excessive luxury." Then the visitor saw that Hazrat Fadala (may Allah be pleased with him) was barefoot and asked, "What is the reason that you are also seen barefoot?" He replied, "The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) commanded us to sometimes wear shoes and sometimes go without."
