Narrated Al-Bara ibn Azib: We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ accompanying the bier of a man of the Ansar. When we reached his grave, it was not yet dug. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down and we also sat down around him as if birds were over our heads. He had in his hand a stick with which he was scratching the ground. He then raised his head and said: Seek refuge with Allah from the punishment in the grave. He said it twice or thrice. The version of Jabir adds here: He hears the beat of their sandals when they go back, and at that moment he is asked: O so and so! Who is your Lord, what is your religion, and who is your Prophet? Hannad's version says: Two angels will come to him, make him sit up and ask him: Who is your Lord? He will reply: My Lord is Allah. They will ask him: What is your religion? He will reply: My religion is Islam. They will ask him: What is your opinion about the man who was sent on a mission among you? He will reply: He is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. They will ask: Who made you aware of this? He will reply: I read Allah's Book, believed in it, and considered it true; which is verified by Allah's words: "Allah's Book, believed in it, and considered it true, which is verified by Allah's words: "Allah establishes those who believe with the word that stands firm in this world and the next. " The agreed version reads: Then a crier will call from Heaven: My servant has spoken the truth, so spread a bed for him from Paradise, clothe him from Paradise, and open a door for him into Paradise. So some of its air and perfume will come to him, and a space will be made for him as far as the eye can see. He also mentioned the death of the infidel, saying: His spirit will be restored to his body, two angels will come to him, make him sit up and ask him: Who is your Lord? He will reply: Alas, alas! I do not know. They will ask him: What is your religion? He will reply: Alas, alas! I do not know. They will ask: Who was the man who was sent on a mission among you? He will reply: Alas, alas! I do not know. Then a crier will call from Heaven: He has lied, so spread a bed for him from Hell, clothe him from Hell, and open for him a door into Hell. Then some of its heat and pestilential wind will come to him, and his grave will be compressed, so that his ribs will be crushed together. Jabir's version adds: One who is blind and dumb will then be placed in charge of him, having a sledge-hammer such that if a mountain were struck with it, it would become dust. He will give him a blow with it which will be heard by everything between the east and the west except by men and jinn, and he will become dust. Then his spirit will be restored to him.

Ali said: When I mention a tradition to you from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, it is dearer to me that I fall from the heaven than I lie on him. But when I talk to you about matters between me and you, then war is a deception. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Towards the end of the time there will be people who are young in age and from Islam as an arrow goes through the animal aimed at, and their faith will not pass their throats. Wherever you meet them kill them, for their killing will bring a reward for him who kills them on the day of Resurrection.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ , وَعُثْمَانُ ابْنَا أَبِي شَيْبَةَ الْمَعْنَى ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، قال عُثْمَانُ , وَجَرِيرٌ الرَّازِيُّ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا وَاصِلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى ،حَدَّثَنَا أَسْبَاطٌ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، وَقَالَ وَاصِلٌ قَالَ : حُدِّثْتُ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ثُمَّ اتَّفَقُوا , عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ نَفَّسَ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ كُرْبَةً مِنْ كُرَبِ الدُّنْيَا نَفَّسَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ كُرْبَةً مِنْ كُرَبِ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ، وَمَنْ يَسَّرَ عَلَى مُعْسِرٍ يَسَّرَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ ، وَمَنْ سَتَرَ عَلَى مُسْلِمٍ سَتَرَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ ، وَاللَّهُ فِي عَوْنِ الْعَبْدِ مَا كَانَ الْعَبْدُ فِي عَوْنِ أَخِيهِ " , قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : لَمْ يَذْكُرْ عُثْمَانُ عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ : وَمَنْ يَسَّرَ عَلَى مُعْسِرٍ .
Abu Hurairah reported the prophet ﷺ as saying: If anyone removes his brother’s anxiety of this world, Allah will remove for him one of the anxieties of the Day of resurrection; if anyone makes easy for an impoverished man, Allah will make easy for him in this world and on the day of resurrection; if anyone conceals a Muslim’s secrets, Allah will conceal his secrets in this world and on the Day of resurrection; Allah will remain in the aid of a servant so long as the servant remains in the aid of his brother. Abu Dawud said: Uthman did not transmit the following words from Abu Muawiyah: “if anyone makes easy for an impoverished man”.
Hadith 4960
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ , حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنْ عِشْتُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْهَى أُمَّتِي أَنْ يُسَمُّوا نَافِعًا ، وَأَفْلَحَ ، وَبَرَكَةَ " , قَالَ الْأَعْمَشُ : وَلَا أَدْرِي ذَكَرَ نَافِعًا أَمْ لَا ، فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ يَقُولُ : إِذَا جَاءَ أَثَمَّ بَرَكَةُ ؟ , فَيَقُولُونَ : لَا , قَالَ أبو داود : رَوَى أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، نَحْوَهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ بَرَكَةَ .
Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: The Prophet ﷺ said: If I survive (God willing), I shall forbid my people to give the names Nafi (beneficial), Aflah (successful) and Barakah (blessing). Al-Amash said: I do not know whether he mentioned Nafi or not. When a man comes and asks: Is there Barakah (blessing)? The people say: No. Abu Dawud said: A similar tradition has been transmitted by Abu al-Zubair on the authority of Jabir from the Prophet ﷺ through a different chain of narrators. This version has no mention of Barakah.
Hadith 4989
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ , حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دَاوُدَ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ ،عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِيَّاكُمْ وَالْكَذِبَ ، فَإِنَّ الْكَذِبَ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْفُجُورِ ، وَإِنَّ الْفُجُورَ يَهْدِي إِلَى النَّارِ ، وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَكْذِبُ وَيَتَحَرَّى الْكَذِبَ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ كَذَّابًا ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالصِّدْقِ ، فَإِنَّ الصِّدْقَ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْبِرِّ ، وَإِنَّ الْبِرَّ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ ، وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَصْدُقُ وَيَتَحَرَّى الصِّدْقَ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ صِدِّيقًا " .
Abdullah (bin Masud) reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Avoid falsehood, for falsehood leads to wickedness, and wickedness to hell; and if a man continues to speak falsehood and makes falsehood his object, he will be recorded in Allah’s presence as a great liar. And adhere to truth, for truth leads to good deeds, and good deeds lead to paradise. If a man continues to speak the truth and makes truth his object, he will be recorded in Allah’s presence as eminently truthful.
Hadith 5004
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَنْبَارِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَصْحَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَسِيرُونَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَنَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ ، فَانْطَلَقَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى حَبْلٍ مَعَهُ ، فَأَخَذَهُ فَفَزِعَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : لَا يَحِلُّ لِمُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يُرَوِّعَ مُسْلِمًا " .
Narrated Abdur Rahman ibn Abu Layla: The Companions of the Prophet ﷺ told us that they were travelling with the Prophet ﷺ. A man of them slept, and one of them went to the rope which he had with him. He took it, by which he was frightened. The Prophet ﷺ said: It is not lawful for a Muslim that he frightens a Muslim.
Hadith 5009
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَأَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ جَوْفُ أَحَدِكُمْ قَيْحًا خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ شِعْرًا " , قال أَبُو عَلِيٍّ : بَلَغَنِي عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَجْهُهُ : أَنْ يَمْتَلِئَ قَلْبُهُ حَتَّى يَشْغَلَهُ عَنِ الْقُرْآنِ وَذِكْرِ اللَّهِ ، فَإِذَا كَانَ الْقُرْآنُ وَالْعِلْمُ الْغَالِبَ ، فَلَيْسَ جَوْفُ هَذَا عِنْدَنَا مُمْتَلِئًا مِنَ الشِّعْرِ ، وَإِنَّ مِنَ الْبَيَانِ لَسِحْرًا , قال : كَأَنَّ الْمَعْنَى : أَنْ يَبْلُغَ مِنْ بَيَانِهِ : أَنْ يَمْدَحَ الْإِنْسَانَ فَيَصْدُقَ فِيهِ حَتَّى يَصْرِفَ الْقُلُوبَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ ، ثُمَّ يَذُمَّهُ فَيَصْدُقَ فِيهِ حَتَّى يَصْرِفَ الْقُلُوبَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ الْآخَرِ ، فَكَأَنَّهُ سَحَرَ السَّامِعِينَ بِذَلِكَ .
Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: it is better for a man’s belly to be full of pus than to be full of poetry. Abu Ali said: I have been told that Abu Ubaid said: It means that his heart is full of poetry so much so that it makes him neglectful of the Quran and remembrance of Allah. If the Quran and the knowledge (of religion) are dominant, the belly will not be full of poetry in our opinion. Some eloquent speech is magic. It means that a man expresses his eloquence by praising another man, and he speaks the truth about him so much so that he attracts the hearts to his speech. He then condemns him and speaks the truth about him so much so that he attracts the hearts to another of his speech, as if he spelled the audience by it.
Hadith 5048
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ الْغَزَّالُ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ , وَمَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ الْبَرَاءِ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِهَذَا ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ : قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا : إِذَا أَتَيْتَ فِرَاشَكَ طَاهِرًا ، وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ : تَوَضَّأْ وُضُوءَكَ لِلصَّلَاةِ ، وَسَاقَ مَعْنَى مُعْتَمِرٍ .
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by al-Bara bin Azil from the prophet ﷺ to the same effect through a different chain of narrators. One transmitter said: when you go to your bed while you are in the state of purification. The other said: Perform ablution like the ablution for prayer. He then transmitted the tradition to the effect as Mu’tamir transmitted.
Hadith 5109
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ , وَسَهْلُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ , قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ الْمَعْنَى ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنِ اسْتَعَاذَكُمْ بِاللَّهِ فَأَعِيذُوهُ ، وَمَنْ سَأَلَكُمْ بِاللَّهِ فَأَعْطُوهُ " , وَقَالَ سَهْلٌ وَعُثْمَانُ : وَمَنْ دَعَاكُمْ فَأَجِيبُوهُ , ثُمَّ اتَّفَقُوا : وَمَنْ آتَى إِلَيْكُمْ مَعْرُوفًا فَكَافِئُوهُ , قال مُسَدَّدٌ وَعُثْمَانُ : فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا ، فَادْعُوا اللَّهَ لَهُ حَتَّى تَعْلَمُوا أَنْ قَدْ كَافَأْتُمُوهُ .
Ibn Abbas reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: If anyone asks you refuge for Allah’s sake give him refuge; and if anyone asks you (for something) for Allah’s sake, give him. Sahl and Sulaiman said: if anyone calls you, respond to him. The Agreed version goes; if you do not afford to compensate him, pray Allah for him until you know that you have compensated him.
Hadith 5114
حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَمْرٍو ، حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ تَوَلَّى قَوْمًا بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِ مَوَالِيهِ ، فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ ، لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَدْلٌ وَلَا صَرْفٌ ".
Abu Hurairah reported the Prophet ﷺ as saying: if a man becomes the client of any people without the permission of his patrons (i. e. those who have freed him), on him will be the curse of Allah, of angels and of all people; no obligatory or supererogatory worship will be accepted from him.
Hadith 5129
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ، قَالَ : " جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي أُبْدِعَ بِي فَاحْمِلْنِي , قال : لَا أَجِدُ مَا أَحْمِلُكَ عَلَيْهِ ، وَلَكِنْ ائْتِ فُلَانًا فَلَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يَحْمِلَكَ , فَأَتَاهُ فَحَمَلَهُ ، فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : مَنْ دَلَّ عَلَى خَيْرٍ فَلَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ فَاعِلِهِ " .
Abu Masud al-Ansari said: A man came to the prophet ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah! I have been left without a mount. So give me a mount. He replied: I have no mount to give, but go to so and so; he may perhaps give you a mount. He then went to him and he gave him a mount. He came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him about it. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: if anyone guides someone to a good (deed), he will get the reward like the reward of the one who does it.
Hadith 5157
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ ، قَالَ : " رَأَيْتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ بِالرَّبَذَةِ وَعَلَيْهِ بُرْدٌ غَلِيظٌ وَعَلَى غُلَامِهِ مِثْلُهُ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ الْقَوْمُ : يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ ، لَوْ كُنْتَ أَخَذْتَ الَّذِي عَلَى غُلَامِكَ فَجَعَلْتَهُ مَعَ هَذَا فَكَانَتْ حُلَّةً وَكَسَوْتَ غُلَامَكَ ثَوْبًا غَيْرَهُ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ إِنِّي كُنْتُ سَابَبْتُ رَجُلًا وَكَانَتْ أُمُّهُ أَعْجَمِيَّةً ، فَعَيَّرْتُهُ بِأُمِّهِ فَشَكَانِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ ، إِنَّكَ امْرُؤٌ فِيكَ جَاهِلِيَّةٌ ، قَالَ : إِنَّهُمْ إِخْوَانُكُمْ فَضَّلَكُمُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ ، فَمَنْ لَمْ يُلَائِمْكُمْ فَبِيعُوهُ وَلَا تُعَذِّبُوا خَلْقَ اللَّهِ " .
Marur bin Suwaid said: I saw Abu Dharr at Rabadhah. He was wearing a thick cloak, and his slave also wore a similar one. He said: the people said: Abu Dharr! (it would be better) if you could take the cloak which your slave wore, and you combined that with, and it would be a pair of garments (hullah) and you would clothe him with another garment. He said: Abu Dharr said: I abused a man whose mother was a non-Arab and I reviled him for his mother. He complained against me to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: Abu Dharr! You are a man who has a characteristic of pre-Islamic days. He said: they are your brethren; Allah has given you superiority over them; sell those who do not please you and do not punish Allah’s creatures.
Hadith 5158
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ ، قَالَ : دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَبِي ذَرٍّ بِالرَّبَذَةِ فَإِذَا عَلَيْهِ بُرْدٌ وَعَلَى غُلَامِهِ مِثْلُهُ ، فَقُلْنَا : يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ ، لَوْ أَخَذْتَ بُرْدَ غُلَامِكَ إِلَى بُرْدِكَ فَكَانَتْ حُلَّةً وَكَسَوْتَهُ ثَوْبًا غَيْرَهُ , قال : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِخْوَانُكُمْ جَعَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ تَحْتَ أَيْدِيكُمْ ، فَمَنْ كَانَ أَخُوهُ تَحْتَ يَدَيْهِ فَلْيُطْعِمْهُ مِمَّا يَأْكُلُ وَلْيَكْسُهُ مِمَّا يَلْبَسُ وَلَا يُكَلِّفْهُ مَا يَغْلِبُهُ ، فَإِنْ كَلَّفَهُ مَا يَغْلِبُهُ فَلْيُعِنْهُ " , قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ : رَوَاهُ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ نَحْوَهُ .
Marur bin Suwaid said: We called on Abu Dharr at al-Rabadhah. He wore a cloak and his slave also wore a similar one. We said; Abu Dharr! If you took the cloak of your slave and combined it with your cloak, so that it could be a part of garments (hullah) and clothed him in another garment, (it would be better). He said; I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say; They are your brethren. Allah has put them under your authority; so he who has his brother under his authority must feed him from what he eats and clothe him with what he wears, and not impose on him work which is too much for him, but if he does so, he must help him. Abu Dawud said: Ibn Numair transmitted it from al-Amash in a similar way.
Hadith 5159
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ ،عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ، قَالَ : " كُنْتُ أَضْرِبُ غُلَامًا لِي ، فَسَمِعْتُ مِنْ خَلْفِي صَوْتًا اعْلَمْ أَبَا مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى مَرَّتَيْنِ : لَلَّهُ أَقْدَرُ عَلَيْكَ مِنْكَ عَلَيْهِ , فَالْتَفَتُّ فَإِذَا هُوَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هُوَ حُرٌّ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى ، قَالَ : أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ لَلَفَعَتْكَ النَّارُ أَوْ لَمَسَّتْكَ النَّارُ " .
Abu Masud al-Ansari said: when I was beating a servant of mine, I heard a voice behind me saying: know, Abu Masud-Ibn al-Muthanna said: “twice”-that Allah has more power over you than you have over him. I turned round and saw that it was that it was the prophet ﷺ. I said: Messenger of Allah! He is free for Allah’s sake. He said: If you had not done it, fire would have burned you or the fire would have touched you.
Hadith 5160
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ وَمَعْنَاهُ نَحْوَهُ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَضْرِبُ غُلَامًا لِي أَسْوَدَ بِالسَّوْطِ ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ أَمْرَ الْعَتْقِ .
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by al-Amash in a similar way to same way to the same effect through a different chain of narrators.
Hadith 5174
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ ، عَنْ هُزَيْلٍ ، قَالَ : " جَاءَ رَجُلٌ ، قَالَ عُثْمَانُ : سَعْدٌ ، فَوَقَفَ عَلَى بَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ ، فَقَامَ عَلَى الْبَابِ ، قَالَ عُثْمَانُ : مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْبَابِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : هَكَذَا عَنْكَ أَوْ هَكَذَا فَإِنَّمَا الِاسْتِئْذَانُ مِنَ النَّظَرِ " .
Narrated Huzayl: A man came. Uthman's version has: Saad ibn Abu Waqqas came. He stood at the door. Uthman's version has: (He stood) facing the door. The Prophet ﷺ said to him: Away from it, (stand) this side or that side. Asking permission is meant to escape from the look of an eye.
Hadith 5175
حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الْحَفَرِيُّ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ نَحْوَهُ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ .
A similar tradition has also been transmitted by Talhah bin Musarrif from a man from Saad from the prophet ﷺ through a different chain of narrators.
Hadith 5193
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي شُعَيْبٍ , حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ ، لَا تَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى تُؤْمِنُوا ، وَلَا تُؤْمِنُوا حَتَّى تَحَابُّوا ، أَفَلَا أَدُلُّكُمْ عَلَى أَمْرٍ إِذَا فَعَلْتُمُوهُ تَحَابَبْتُمْ ، أَفْشُوا السَّلَامَ بَيْنَكُمْ " .
Abu Hurairah reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: By him in whose hand my soul is, you will not enter Paradise until you believe, and you will not believe until you love one another: should I not guide you to something doing which you will love one another: spread out salutation among you.

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدُ بْنُ مُسَرْهَدٍ , حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ , عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ , عَنْ أَبِي السَّفَرِ , عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو , قَالَ : " مَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا أُطَيِّنُ حَائِطًا لِي أَنَا وَأُمِّي , فَقَالَ : مَا هَذَا يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ؟ , فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , شَيْءٌ أُصْلِحُهُ , فَقَالَ : الْأَمْرُ أَسْرَعُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ " .
Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came upon us when my mother and I were plastering a wall of mine. He asked: What is this, Abdullah ? I replied: It is something I am repairing. He said! The matter is quicker for you than that.
Hadith 5236
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ , وَهَنَّادٌ الْمَعْنَى , قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ , عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ بِهَذَا , قَالَ : مَرَّ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ نُعَالِجُ خُصًّا لَنَا وَهَى , فَقَالَ : مَا هَذَا ؟ , فَقُلْنَا : خُصٌّ لَنَا وَهَى فَنَحْنُ نُصْلِحُهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : مَا أَرَى الْأَمْرَ إِلَّا أَعْجَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ .
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by al-Amash through a different chain of narrators. This version has: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came upon me when we were repairing our cottage that was broken. He asked: What is this? We replied: This cottage of ours has broken and we are repairing it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I see that the command is quicker than that.
