Hadith 7560
حَدَّثَنَا رِبْعِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِسْحَاق ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " ثَلَاثٌ مِنْ عَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا يَتْرُكُهُنَّ أَهْلُ الْإِسْلَامِ : النِّيَاحَةُ ، وَالِاسْتِسْقَاءُ بِالْأَنْوَاءِ ، وَكَذَا " . قُلْتُ لِسَعِيدٍ : وَمَا هُوَ ؟ قَالَ : دَعْوَى الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَا آلَ فُلَانٍ ، يَا آلَ فُلَانٍ ، يَا آلَ فُلَانٍ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There are three practices from the time of ignorance that Muslims will not abandon: wailing over the dead, seeking rain through the stars, and doing such-and-such. I asked Saeed what this meant. He explained that it refers to, during fights and quarrels, calling upon one's family or saying "O family of so-and-so, O family of so-and-so," as was done in the time of ignorance.
Hadith 7561
حَدَّثَنَا رِبْعِيٌّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيَّ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً ، كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ بِهَا عَشْرَ حَسَنَاتٍ " .

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عن أبيه ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيَّ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً ، كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ بِهَا عَشْرَ حَسَنَاتٍ " .
In the copy available to us, there is no hadith or its chain of narration present here; only the word "haddathana" is written. And in the footnote, it is explained as follows: In some copies of Musnad Ahmad, this error has occurred that the scribes took the chain of narration of hadith number 7553 and placed upon it the text of hadith number 7551, which is incorrect.
Hadith 7563
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا مِنْ صَاحِبِ كَنْزٍ لَا يُؤَدِّي حَقَّهُ ، إلَّا جُعِلَ صَفَائِحَ يُحْمَى عَلَيْهَا فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ ، فَتُكْوَى بِهَا جَبْهَتُهُ وَجَنْبُهُ وَظَهْرُهُ ، حَتَّى يَحْكُمَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بَيْنَ عِبَادِه ، فِي يَوْمٍ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهُ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ مِمَّا تَعُدُّونَ ، ثُمَّ يُرَى سَبِيلَهُ ، إِمَّا إِلَى الْجَنَّة ، وَإِمَّا إِلَى النَّارِ . وَمَا مِنْ صَاحِبِ غَنَمٍ لَا يُؤَدِّي حَقَّهَا ، إلَّا جَاءَتْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَوْفَرَ مَا كَانَتْ ، فَيُبْطَحُ لَهَا بِقَاعٍ قَرْقَرٍ ، فَتَنْطَحُهُ بِقُرُونِهَا ، وَتَطَؤُهُ بِأَظلَافِهَا ، لَيْسَ فِيهَا عَقْصَاءُ ولَا جَلْحَاءُ ، كُلَّمَا مَضَتْ أُخْرَاهَا رُدَّتْ عَلَيْهِ أُولاهَا ، حَتَّى يَحْكُمَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بَيْنَ عِبَادِهِ ، فِي يَوْمٍ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهُ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ مِمَّا تَعُدُّونَ ، ثُمَّ يَرَى سَبِيلَه ، إِمَّا إِلَى الْجَنَّة ، وَإِمَّا إِلَى النَّارِ . وَمَا مِنْ صَاحِبِ إِبِلٍ لَا يُؤَدِّي حَقَّهَا ، إِلَّا جَاءَتْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَوْفَرَ مَا كَانَتْ ، فَيُبْطَحُ لَهَا بِقَاعٍ قَرْقَرٍ ، فَتَطَؤُهُ بِأَخْفَافِهَا ، كُلَّمَا مَضَتْ أُخْرَاهَا رُدَّتْ عَلَيْهِ أُولَاهَا ، حَتَّى يَحْكُمَ اللَّهُ بَيْنَ عِبَادِهِ ، فِي يَوْمٍ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهُ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ مِمَّا تَعُدُّونَ ، ثُمَّ يَرَى سَبِيلَهُ ، إِمَّا إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ ، وَإِمَّا إِلَى النَّارِ " . ثُمَّ ثُمَّ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْخَيْلِ ، فَقَال : " الْخَيْلُ مَعْقُودٌ فِي نَوَاصِيهَا الْخَيْرُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ، وَهِيَ لِرَجُلٍ أَجْرٌ ، وَلِرَجُلٍ سِتْرٌ وَجَمَالٌ ، وَعَلَى رَجُلٍ وِزْرٌ ، أَمَّا الَّذِي هِيَ لَهُ أَجْرٌ ، فَرَجُلٌ يَتَّخِذُهَا يُعِدُّهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، فَمَا غَيَّبَتْ فِي بُطُونِهَا فَهُوَ لَهُ أَجْرٌ ، وَإِنْ مَرَّتْ بِنَهَرٍ فَشَرِبَتْ مِنْهُ ، فَمَا غَيَّبَتْ فِي بُطُونِهَا فَهُوَ لَهُ أَجْرٌ ، وَإِنْ مَرَّتْ بَمرْجٍ فَمَا أَكَلَتْ مِنْهُ فَهُوَ لَهُ أَجْرٌ ، وَإِنْ اسْتَنَّتْ شَرَفًا ، فلَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ تَخْطُوهَا أَجْرٌ ، حَتَّى ذَكَرَ أَرْوَاثَهَا وَأَبْوَالَهَا ، وَأَمَّا الَّتِي هِيَ لَهُ سِتْرٌ وَجَمَالٌ ، فَرَجُلٌ يَتَّخِذُهَا تَكَرُّمًا وَتَجَمَُّلَاً ، ولا يَنْسَى حَقَّ بُطُونِهَا وَظُهُورِهَا ، وعُسْرِهَا وَيُسْرِهَا ، وَأَمَّا الَّذِي هِيَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرٌ ، فَرَجُلٌ يَتَّخِذُهَا بَذَخًا وَأَشَرًا ، وَرِيَاءً وَبَطَرًا " . ثُمَّ ثُمَّ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْحُمُرِ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيَّ فِيهَا شيئاً ، إِلَّا الآية الْفَاذَّةَ الْجَامِعَةَ : مَنْ يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُ وَمَنْ يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُ سورة الزلزلة آية 7 - 8 " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever owns treasures and does not pay their due right, all his treasures will be made into a slab and heated in the fire of Hell. Then his forehead, sides, and back will be branded with it until Allah decides among His servants. That will be a day whose length, according to your reckoning, will be equal to fifty thousand years. After that, he will be shown his path either to Paradise or to Hell.
Similarly, the person who owns goats but does not pay their due zakat, all those goats will come on the Day of Judgment in a healthier state than before, and the surface of the earth will be made soft for them. Then they will gore him with their horns and trample him with their hooves. Among them, there will be no goat with twisted horns or without horns. As soon as the last goat passes over him, the first one will return, and this will continue until Allah decides among His servants. That will be a day whose length, according to your reckoning, will be equal to fifty thousand years. After that, he will be shown his path either to Paradise or to Hell.
Similarly, the person who owns camels but does not pay their due zakat, all those camels will come on the Day of Judgment in a healthier state than before, and the surface of the earth will be made soft for them. Thus, they will trample him with their hooves. As soon as the last camel passes over him, the first one will return, and this will continue until Allah decides among His servants. That will be a day whose length, according to your reckoning, will be equal to fifty thousand years. After that, he will be shown his path either to Paradise or to Hell.
Then someone asked the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about horses. He said: The foreheads of horses are a source of concealment and beauty, and sometimes a cause of punishment. The person for whom a horse is a source of reward is the one who keeps and prepares it for jihad in the way of Allah. Whatever enters the belly of such a horse is a source of reward for him. If it drinks water from a river while passing by, the water that enters its belly is also a source of reward. If it eats something while passing by, that too is a source of reward for that person. If it climbs a hill, for every hoofbeat and every step, he will be given a reward, until the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) even mentioned its dung and urine.
And the horse that is a source of concealment and beauty for a person is for the one who keeps it for adornment and does not neglect the rights of its belly and back in ease or hardship.
And the horse that is a source of burden for a person is for the one who keeps horses out of pride, arrogance, and show.
Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about donkeys. He said: Allah Almighty has revealed this comprehensive verse about them: Whoever does an atom’s weight of good will see it, and whoever does an atom’s weight of evil will see it.

I do not know whether he will be among those who also fall unconscious and regains consciousness before me, or among those whom Allah has exempted."

Hadith 7598
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ لَيْثٍ ، عَنْ كَعْبٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " إِذَا صَلَّيْتُمْ عَلَيَّ ، فَاسْأَلُوا اللَّهَ لِي الْوَسِيلَةَ " ، قِيلَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَمَا الْوَسِيلَةُ ؟ قَالَ : " أَعْلَى دَرَجَةٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ ، لَا يَنَالُهَا إِلَّا رَجُلٌ وَاحِدٌ ، وَأَرْجُو أَنْ أَكُونَ أَنَا هُوَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you send blessings upon me, then ask Allah to grant me al-Wasilah. Someone asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What is al-Wasilah?" He replied: It is the name of the highest rank in Paradise, which will be given to only one person, and I hope that I will be that person.
