This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Anas through another chain of transmitters.

Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) gave a beating with palm branches and shoes, and that Abu Bakr (RA) gave forty lashes. When Umar (became the Commander of the Faithful) and the people went near to pastures and towns, he said (to the Companions of the Holy Prophet). What is your opinion about lashing for drinking? Thereupon Abdul Rahman bin Auf said: My opinion is that you fix it as the mildest punishment. Then 'Umar inflicted eighty stripes.

Anas reported that Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) used to strike forty times with shoes and palm branches (in case of drinking of) wine. The rest of the hadith is the same and there is no mention of pastures and towns.

Narrated to us by ‘Ubaydullah ibn Mu‘adh al-‘Anbari, narrated to us by my father, narrated to us by Shu‘bah, from Abu al-Tayyah, from Anas.
And narrated to us by Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, narrated to us by ‘Ubaydullah ibn Sa‘id.
And narrated to us by Muhammad ibn al-Walid, narrated to us by Muhammad ibn Ja‘far, both from Shu‘bah, from Abu al-Tayyah, who said: I heard Anas ibn Malik say: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
"Make things easy and do not make them difficult, and give tranquility and do not drive people away."

Anas reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) having said this: There would be a flag for every perfidious person on the Day of Judgment by which he will be recognised.

It is narrated on the authority of Anas that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said on the day of the Battle of Ubud: O Allah, if Thou wilt (defeat Muslims), there will be none on the earth to worship Thee.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) who said: When the Muhajirs migrated from Makkah to Madinah; they came (in a state that) they had not anything (i. e. money) in their hands, while the Ansar possessed lands and date palms. They divided their properties with the Muhajirs. The Ansar divided and gave them on the condition that they would give half the fruit from the orchards every year, and the Muhajirs would recompense them by working with them and putting in labour. The mother of Anas bin Malik (RA) was called Umm Sulaim and she was also the mother of 'Abdullah bin Talha who was a brother of Anas from his mother's side. The mother of Anas had given the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) her date-palms. He bestowed them upon Umm Aiman, the slave-girl who had been freed by him and was the mother of Usama bin Zaid. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had finished the war with the people of Khaibar and returned to Madinah, the Muhajirs returned to the Ansar all the gifts which they had given them out of the fruits. (Anas bin Malik (RA) said:) The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) returned to my mother her date-palms and gave to Umm Aiman instead of them date-palms from his orchard. Ibn Shihab says that Umm Aiman was the mother of Usama bin Zaid who was the slave-girl of 'Abdullah bin 'Abd-ul-Muttalib and hailed from Abyssinia. When Amina gave birth to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) after the death of his father, Umm Aiman used to nurse him until he grew up. He (later on) freed her and married her to Zaid bin Haritha. She died five months after the death of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) .

It has been narrated by Anas that (after his migration to Madinah) a person placed at the Prophet's (ﷺ) disposal some date-palms growing on his land until the lands of Quraiza and Nadir were conquered. Then he began to return to him whatever he had received. (In this connection) my people told me to approach the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and ask from him what his people had given him or a portion thereof, but the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had bestowed those trees upon Umm Aiman. So I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he gave them (back) to me. Umm Aiman (also) came (at this time). She put the cloth round my neck and said: No, by Allah, we will not give to you what he has granted to me. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Umm Aiman, let him have them and for you are such and such trees instead. But she said: By Allah, there is no god besides Him. No, never! The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) continued saying: (You will get) such and such until he had granted her ten times or nearly ten times more (than the original gift).

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that the Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah (ﷺ) wrote to Chosroes (King of Persia), Caesar (Emperor of Rome), Negus (King of Abyssinia) and every (other) despot inviting them to Allah, the Exalted. And this Negus was not the one for whom the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had said the funeral prayers.

The tradition has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) (the same narrator) through a different chain of transmitters, but this version does not mention: "And he was not the Negus for whom the Prophet (ﷺ) had said the funeral prayers."

It has been narrated on the authority of the same narrator through another chain of transmitters with the same difference in the wording.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that when (the news of) the advance of Abu Sufyan (RA) (at the head of a force) reached him, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) held consultations with his Companions. The narrator said: Abu Bakr (RA) spoke (expressing his own views), but he (the Holy Prophet) did not pay heed to him. Then spoke 'Umar (expressing his views), but he (the Holy Prophet) did not pay heed to him (too). Then Sa'd bin 'Ubadah stood up and said: Messenger of Allah, you want us (to speak). By God in Whose control is my life, if you order us to plunge our horses into the sea, we would do so. If you order us to goad our horses to the most distant place like Bark al-Ghimad, we would do so. The narrator said: Now the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) called upon the people (for the encounter). So they set out and encamped at Badr. (Soon) the water-carriers of the Quraish arrived. Among them was a black slave belonging to Banu al-Hajjaj. The Companions of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) caught him and interrogated him about Abu Sufyan (RA) and his companions. He said: I know nothing about Abu Sufyan (RA) , but Abu Jahl, Utba, Shaiba and Umayya bin Khalaf are there. When he said this, they beat him. Then he said: All right, I will tell you about Abu Sufyan (RA) . They would stop beating him and then ask him (again) about Abu Sufyan (RA) . He would again say, I know nothing about Abu Sufyan (RA) , but Abu Jahl, 'Utba, Shaiba and Umayya bin Khalaf are there. When he said this, they beat him likewise. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was standing in prayer. When he saw this he finished his prayer and said: By Allah in Whose control is my life, you beat him when he is telling you the truth, and you let him go when he tells you a lie. The narrator said: Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: This is the place where so and so would be killed. He placed his hand on the earth (saying) here and here; (and) none of them fell away from the place which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had indicated by placing his hand on the earth.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that the Quraish made peace with the Prophet (ﷺ) . Among them was Suhail bin Amr. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to 'Ali (RA) : Write "In the name of Allah, most Gracious and most Merciful." Suhail said: As for "Bismillah," we do not know what is meant by "Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Rahim" (In the name of Allah most Gracious and most Merciful). But write what we understand, i. e. Bi ismika allahumma (in thy name. O Allah). Then, the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Write: "From Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah." They said: If we knew that thou were the Messenger of Allah, we would follow you. Therefore, write your name and the name of your father. So the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Write "From Muhammad bin 'Abdullah." They laid the condition on the Prophet (ﷺ) that anyone who joined them from the Muslims, the Makkahns would not return him, and anyone who joined you (the Muslims) from them, you would send him back to them. The Companions said: Messenger of Allah, should we write this? He said: Yes. One who goes away from us to join them-may Allah keep him away! and one who comes to join us from them (and is sent back) Allah will provide him relief and a way of escape.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) who said: When they (Companions of the Holy Prophet) were overwhelmed with grief and distress on his return from Hudaibiya where he had slaughtered his sacrificial beasts (not being allowed to proceed to Makkah), the Qur'anic verse: Inna fatahna... laka fathan mobinan to fauzan 'aziman, was revealed to him. (At this) he said: On me has descended a verse that is dearer to me than the whole world.

This tradition has been narrated through a different chain of transmitters.

It has been reported on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) that (when the enemy got the upper hand) on the day of the Battle of Uhud, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was left with only seven men from the Ansar and two men from the Quraish. When the enemy advanced towards him and overwhelmed him, he said: Whoso turns them away from us will attain Paradise or will be my Companion in Paradise. A man from the Ansar came forward and fought (the enemy) until he was killed. The enemy advanced and overwhelmed him again and he repeated the words: Whoso turns them away, from us will attain Paradise or will be my Companion in Paradise. A man from the Ansar came forward and fought until he was killed. This state continued until the seven Ansar were killed (one after the other). Now, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to his two Companions: We have not done justice to our Companions.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had his front teeth damaged on the day of the Battle of Uhud, and got a wound on his head. He was wiping the blood (from his face) and was saying: How will these people attain salvation who have wounded their Prophet (ﷺ) and broken his tooth while he called them towards God? At this time, God, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed the Verse: "Thou hast no authority" (iii. 127).

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) that it was said to the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) : Would that you approached'Abdullah bin Ubayy (to persuade him to accept Islam). The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) (accordingly) went to him, riding a donkey, and (a party of) Muslims also went (with him). On the way they had to walk over a piece of land affected with salinity. When the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) approached him, he said: Do not come near me. By Allah, the obnoxious smell of your donkey has offended me. (As a rejoinder to this remark), a man from the Ansar said: By God, the smell of the donkey of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is better than your smell. (At this), a man from the tribe of 'Abdullah got furious. Then people from both sides got furious and exchanged blows with sticks, hands and shoes. (The narrator says) that (after this scuffle) we learnt that (the Qur'anic verse): "If two parties of the Believers have a quarrel, make ye peace between them" (xlix. 9) was revealed about these fighting parties.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said (after the encounter at Badr): Who will ascertain for us what has happened to Abu Jahl? Ibn Mas'ud went (to gather this information). He found that the two sons of 'Afra' had struck him and he lay cold at the point of death. He caught him by his beard and said: Art thou Abu Jahl? He said: is there anybody superior to the person you have killed, or (he said) his people have killed him. Ibn Mas'ud says that, according to Abu Mijlaz, Abu Jahl said: Alas! a person other than a farmer would have killed me.

A similar tradition has been transmitted by a different chain of narrators, on the same authority with a slight difference in the wording.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) raided Khaibar. One morning we offered prayers in the darkness of early dawn (near Khaibar). Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) mounted (his horse). Abu Talha mounted his and I mounted behind Abu Talha on the same horse. The Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah (ﷺ) rode through the streets of Khaibar and (I rode so close to him) that my knee touched the thigh of the Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah (ﷺ) . The wrapper got aside from his thigh, and I could see its whiteness. When he entered the town, he said: God is Great. Khaibar shall face destruction. When we descend in the city-square of a people, it is a bad day for them who have been warned (and have not taken heed). He said these words thrice. The people of the town had just come out from (their houses) to go about their jobs. They said (in surprise): Muhammad has come. We captured Khaibar by force.

It has been narrated (through another chain of transmitters) on the authority of the same narrator (i. e. Anas) who said: I was riding behind Abu Talha on the day of the Battle of Khaibar (and we were riding so close to the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) that) my foot would touch his. We encountered the people at sunrise when they had come out with their axes, spades and strings driving their cattle along. They shouted (in surprise): Muhammad has come along with his force! The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Khaibar shall face destruction. Behold! when we descend in the city-square of a people, it is a bad day for those who have been warned (but have not taken heed). Allah, the Glorious and Majestic, inflicted defeat upon them.

And they were chanting: O God, there is no good but the good of the Hereafter. So help Thou the Ansar and the Muhajirs. Shaiban substituted "So forgive Thou"for "So help Thou".

It has been narrated (through a still difterent chain of transmitters) by Anas that the Companions of Muhammad (ﷺ) were chanting on the day of the Battle of the Ditch: We are those who have sworn allegiance to Muhammad (And made a covenant with him) to follow Islam as long as we live. Hammad is not sure whether Anas said:" Ala'l-Islam" or," Ala'l-Jihad". And the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) was chanting: O God, the real good is the good of the Hereafter, So forgive Thou the Ansar and the Muhajirs.

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) that eighty Persons from the inhabitants of Makkah swooped down upon the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) from the mountain of Tan'im. They were armed and wanted to attack the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) and his Companions unawares. He (the Holy Prophet) captured them but spared their lives. So, God, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed the verses: "It is He Who restrained your hands from them and their hands from you in the valley of Makkah after He had given you a victory over them."

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that, on the Day of Hunain, Umm Sulaim took out a dagger she had in her possession. Abu Talha saw her and said: Messenger of Allah, this is Umm Sulaim. She is holding a dagger. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) asked (her): What for are you holding this dagger? She said: I took it up so that I may tear open the belly of a polytheist who comes near me. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) began to smile (at these words). She said: Messenger of Allah, kill all those people-other than us-whom thou hast declared to be free (on the day of the Conquest of Makkah). (They embraced Islam because) they were defeated at your hands (and as such their Islam is not dependable). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Umm Sulaim. God is sufficient (against the mischief of the polytheists) and He will be kind to us (so you need not carry this dagger).

Whenever the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) raised his head to look at the people, Abd Talba would say: Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah, may my father and my mother be thy ransom, do not raise your head lest you be struck by an arrow shot by the enemy. My neck is before your neck. The narrator said: I saw A'isha bint Abu Bakr (RA) and Umm Sulaim, both of them had tucked up their garments, so I could see the anklets on their feet. They were carrying water-skins on their backs and would pour water into the mouths of the people.
