Abu Hurairah (RA) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was asked about the best of deeds. He observed: Belief in Allah. He (the inquirer) said: What next? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Jihad (struggle to the utmost) in the cause of Allah. He (the inquirer) again said: What next? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Pilgrimage accepted into the grace of the Lord. In the. tradition narrated on the authority of Muhammad bin Ja'far (the words are) that he (the Holy Prophet) said: Belief in Allah and His Messenger. Muhammad bin Rafi and 'Abd bin Humaid, 'Abdur-Razzaq and Ma'mar and Zuhri have narrated a hadith like this on the authority of the same chain of transmitters.

This hadith has been thus reported by another chain of transmitters: Umm Habiba bin Jahsh came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and she had been a mustahada for seven years, and the rest of the hadith was narrated like that of 'Amr bin al-Harith up to the words: "There came the redness of the blood over water." and nothing was narrated beyond it.

Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, Zuhayr ibn Harb, and Amr al-Naqid narrated to us, they said: Sufyan ibn Uyaynah narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, from Sa'id, from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.

And Muhammad ibn Ja'far ibn Ziyad narrated to me, Ibrahim (meaning ibn Sa'd) informed us, from al-Zuhri, from Sa'id and Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.

And Harmalah ibn Yahya narrated to me—and the wording is his—he said: Ibn Wahb informed us, Yunus informed me, from Ibn Shihab, he said: Abu Salamah ibn Abd al-Rahman informed me, that Abu Hurayrah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "When the prayer is established, do not come to it running, but come to it walking and with tranquility. Whatever you catch, pray, and whatever you miss, complete it."

Sa'id bin al-Musayyib reported: I heard Sa'd (b. Abi Waqqas) saying that the idea of 'Uthman bin Maz'un for living in celibacy was rejected (by the Holy Prophet), and if he had been given permission they would have got themselves castrated.

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: There was a person who gave loans to the people and said to his men: When an insolvent comes to you show him leniency that Allah may overlook our (faults). So when he met Allah, He overlooked his faults (forgave him).

Anas bin Malik (RA) reported: I saw one day on the finger of Allah's Messenger (may peace be Upon him) a silver ring; so the people also got silver rings made and wore them Then Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) discarded his ring, and the people also discarded their rings.

Abd ibn Humaid narrated to us, ‘Abd al-Razzaq informed us, Ma‘mar informed us, from al-Zuhri, from Abu Salamah, from Jabir.
And Abu ‘Imran Muhammad ibn Ja‘far ibn Ziyad narrated to me—and the wording is his—he informed us, Ibrahim, meaning Ibn Sa‘d, informed us, from al-Zuhri, from Sinan ibn Abi Sinan al-Du’ali, from Jabir ibn ‘Abd Allah, who said:
“We went on an expedition with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, towards Najd. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, caught up with us in a valley with many thorny trees. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, dismounted under a tree and hung his sword on one of its branches. The people dispersed in the valley seeking shade under the trees. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘A man came to me while I was sleeping and took the sword. I woke up and he was standing over my head, and I did not realize except that the sword was drawn in his hand. He said to me: “Who will protect you from me?” I said: “Allah.” Then he said a second time: “Who will protect you from me?” I said: “Allah.” So he sheathed the sword, and here he is sitting, and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, did not harm him.’”

Ibn 'Abbas reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was the most generous of people in charity, but he was generous to the utmost in the month of Ramadan. Gabriel (ؑ) (peace be upon him) would meet him every year during the month of Ramadan until it ended, and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) recited to him the Qur'an; and when Gabriel (ؑ) met him, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was most generous in giving charity like the blowing wind.

Ibn Abbas (RA) reported that the People of the Book used to let their hair fall (on their foreheads) and the polytheists used to part them on their heads, and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) liked to conform his behaviour to the People of the Book in matters in which he received no command (from God); so Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) let fall his hair upon his forehead, and then he began to part it after this.
