Narrated Abu Hurairah: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ uttered the takbir (Allah is most great) for prayer (in the beginning), he raised his hands opposite to his shoulders; and when he bowed, he did like that; and when he raised his head to prostrate, he did like that; and when he got up at the end of two rak'ahs, he did like that.

Abu bakr bin Abdur-Rahman and abu Salamah said: Abu Hurairah would utter the takbir in every prayer, whether obligatory or non-obligatory, He would utter the takbir when he stood, and he would utter the takbir when he bowed, then he would say: “Allah listens to him who praises Him”; he then would say before prostrating himself; “ Our Lord, to Thee be praise”; then he would say while falling in prostration: “Allah is most great”; he then would utter the takbir when he raised his head after prostration, and then utter the takbir when he prostrated, and then utter takbir the takbir when he stood up at the end of two rak’ahs after sitting down. He used to do so in every rak’ah until he finished his prayer. Then he would say at the end of the prayer: By Him in Whose hands lies my life, I am closer to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in respect of his prayer. Such was the prayer he used to offer until he departed from the world. Abu Dawud said: Malik, al-Zubaidi and others have narrated so that they form the last words from al-Zuhri on the authority of Ali b, Husain. And this is supported by the version reported by Abd al-A’la from Mamar and Shuaib bin Abi Hamzah on the authority of Al-Zuhri.

Abu Bakr ibn Abdur Rahman said: The messenger of Marwan whom he sent to Umm Maqil reported to me. She said: Abu Maqil accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during hajj. When he came (to her) she said: You know that hajj is incumbent on me. They walked until they visited him (i. e. the Prophet) and she asked (him): Messenger of Allah, hajj is due from me, and Abu Maqil has a camel. Abu Maqil said: She spoke the truth, I have dedicated it to the cause of Allah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Give it to her, that is in the cause of Allah. So he gave the camel to her. She then said: Messenger of Allah, I am a woman who has become aged and ill. Is there any action which would be sufficient for me as my hajj? He replied: Umrah performed during Ramadan is sufficient as hajj.

Abd al-Malik bin Abi Bakr reported from his father on the authority of Umm Salamah: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ married Umm Salamah, he stayed with her three night, and said: Your people (i. e. clan) are not being humbled for you in my estimation. If you wish I shall stay with you seven nights ; and if I stay you seven nights, I shall stay with my other wives seven nights.

Narrated A Companion of the Prophet: Abu Bakr ibn Abdur Rahman reported on the authority of a Companion of the Prophet ﷺ: I saw the Prophet ﷺ commanding the people while he was travelling on the occasion of the conquest of Makkah not to observe fast. He said: Be strong for your enemy. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ fasted himself. Narrated Abu Bakr: A man who narrated his tradition to me said: I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in al-Arj pouring water over his head while he was fasting, either because of thirst or because of heat.

Narrated Aishah and Umm Salamah, wives of the Prophet ﷺ: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would be overtaken by the dawn when he was in a state of sexual defilement. The narrator Abdullah al-Adhrami said in his version: During Ramadan, due to sexual intercourse and no owing to a dream (i. e. nocturnal emission), and would fast. Abu Dawud said: How brief is this sentence uttered by the narrator, this is, "he was overtaken by daw when he was in the state of sexual defilement"? The tradition says: The Prophet ﷺ was overtaken by dawn in the state of sexual defilement when he was fasting.

Narrated Abu Masud: The Prophet ﷺ forbade the price paid for a dog, the hire paid to a prostitute, and the gift given to a soothsayer.

Narrated Abu Masud: The Prophet ﷺ forbade the price paid for a dog, the hire paid to prostitute, and the gift given to a soothsayer.

Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: If anyone becomes insolvent and the man (i. e. creditor) finds his very property with him, he is more entitled to it than anyone else.

Narrated Abu Bakr ibn Abdur Rahman ibn al-Harith ibn Hisham: The Prophet ﷺ said: If a man sells (his) property and the man who buys it becomes insolvent, and the seller does not receive the price of the property he had sold, but finds his very property with him (i. e. the buyer), he is more entitled to it (than others). If the buyer dies, then the owner of the property is equal to the creditors.

The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Abu Bakr bin Adb al-Rahman bin al-Harith bin Hisham from Messenger of Allah ﷺ through a different chain of narrators to the same effect as narrated by Malik. This version adds: "If he paid something from the price (of the property), then he will be equal to the creditors in it. "

A similar tradition (to the No. 3513) has been transmitted by Abu Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ. This version has: If he paid something from its price, then he will be equal to the creditors in the remaining price. If a man dies and he has the very property of a man (i. e. seller), he is equal to the creditors whether he (the buyer) pays him (the price) or not. Abu Dawud said: Malik's version of this tradition is sounder.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Zam'ah: When the illness of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ became serious while I was with him among a group of people, Bilal called him for prayer. He said: Ask someone to lead the people in prayer. So Abdullah ibn Zam'ah went out and found that Umar was present among the people and Abu Bakr was not there. I said: Umar, get up and lead the people in prayer. So he came forward and uttered "Allah is Most Great". When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard his voice, as Umar had a loud voice, he said: Where is Abu Bakr? Allah does not allow that, and the Muslims too; Allah does not allow that, and the Muslims too. So he sent for Abu Bakr. He came after Umar had led the people in that prayer. He then led the people in prayer.

Ubayy bin Kaab reported the Prophet ﷺ as saying: In poetry there is wisdom.
