Hadith 154
أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ، عَنْ شَرِيكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي نَمِرٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ، يَقُولُ : بَيْنَا نَحْنُ جُلُوسٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى جَمَلٍ ، فَأَنَاخَهُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، ثُمَّ عَقَلَهُ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُمْ : أَيُّكُمْ مُحَمَّدٌ ؟ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُتَّكِئٌ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَيْهُمْ ، قَالَ : فَقُلْنَا لَهُ : هَذَا الأَبْيَضُ الْمُتَّكِئُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ : يَا ابْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " قَدْ أَجَبْتُكَ " ، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي سَائِلُكَ فَمُشْتَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ ، فَلا تَجِدَنَّ عَلَيَّ فِي نَفْسِكَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " سَلْ مَا بَدَا لَكَ " ، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ : نَشَدْتُكَ بِرَبِّكَ وَرَبِّ مَنْ قَبْلُكَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَرْسَلَكَ إِلَى النَّاسِ كُلِّهِمْ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الِلَّهِمْ نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : فَأَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَمَرَكَ أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ فِي الْيَوْمِ وَاللَّيْلَةِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الِلَّهِمْ نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : فَأَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَمَرَكَ أَنَ نَصُومَ هَذَا الشَّهْرَ مِنَ السَّنَةِ ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الِلَّهِمْ نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : فَأَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَمَرَكَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ هَذِهِ الصَّدَقَةَ مِنْ أَغْنِيَائِنَا ، فَتَقْسِمَهَا عَلَى فُقَرَائِنَا ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الِلَّهِمْ نَعَمْ " ، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ : آمَنَتُ بِمَا جِئْتَ بِهِ ، وَأَنَا رَسُولُ مَنْ وَرَائِي مِنْ قَوْمِي ، وَأَنَا ضِمَامُ بْنُ ثَعْلَبَةَ أَخُو بَنِي سَعْدِ بْنِ بَكْرٍ .
Shareek bin Abdullah narrates: He heard Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) saying: Once we were sitting in the mosque. A man came riding on a camel. He made the camel sit in the mosque and then tied it. Then he asked the people: Who among you is Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)? At that time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting among the people, reclining. The narrator says: We told him: This is the fair-complexioned gentleman, sitting while reclining (the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him). That man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): O son of Abdul Muttalib! The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied to him: I am ready to answer you. He asked: O Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! I will ask you some questions and while asking, I may show some harshness, so do not be angry with me. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Ask whatever you find appropriate. He said: I ask you by your Lord and the Lord of those before you. Has Allah sent you to all mankind? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: Allah (knows), yes. He asked: I ask you by Allah, has Allah commanded you that we should offer five prayers every day? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah (knows), yes. He asked: I ask you by Allah, has Allah commanded you that we should fast in this month every year? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah (knows), yes. He asked: I ask you by Allah, has Allah commanded you that you should take zakat from our wealthy and distribute it among our poor? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah (knows), yes! That man said: I believe in what you have brought, and I am the representative of my people who are behind me. My name is Dhamam bin Tha’labah, and I belong to Banu Sa’d bin Banu Bakr.
Hadith 155
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ الْبَلَدِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيَمَ الْجُدِّيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ الْبُنَانِيُّ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا نُهِيَنَا أَنْ نَسْأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ ، فَكَانَ يُعْجِبُنَا أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ فَيَسْأَلَهُ ، وَنَحْنُ نَسْمَعُ ، فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ ، فَقَالَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَتَانَا رَسُولُكَ ، فَزَعَمَ أَنَّكَ تَزْعُمُ أَنَّ اللَّهَ أَرْسَلَكَ ، قَالَ : " صَدَقَ " ، قَالَ : فَمَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاءَ ؟ قَالَ : " الِلَّهِ " ، قَالَ : فَمَنْ خَلَقَ الأَرْضَ ؟ قَالَ : " الِلَّهِ " ، قَالَ : فَمَنْ نَصَبَ هَذِهِ الْجِبَالَ ؟ قَالَ : " الِلَّهِ " ، قَالَ : فَمَنْ جَعَلَ فِيهَا هَذِهِ الْمَنَافِعَ ؟ قَالَ : " الِلَّهِ " ، قَالَ : فَبِالَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاءَ وَالأَرْضَ ، وَنَصَبَ الْجِبَالَ ، وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا هَذِهِ الْمَنَافِعَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَرْسَلَكَ ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : زَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي يَوْمِنَا وَلَيْلَتِنَا ، قَالَ : " صَدَقَ " ، قَالَ : فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : زَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا صَدَقَةً فِي أَمْوَالِنَا ، قَالَ : " صَدَقَ " ، قَالَ : فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : زَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا صَوْمَ شَهْرٍ فِي سَنَتِنَا ، قَالَ : " صَدَقَ " ، قَال : فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : زَعَمَ رَسُولُكَ أَنَّ عَلَيْنَا حَجَّ الْبَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلا ، قَالَ : " صَدَقَ " ، قَالَ : فَبِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَكَ ، آلِلَّهِ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ : وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ ، لا أَزِيدُ عَلَيْهِنَّ ، وَلا أَنْقُصُ مِنْهُنَّ شَيْئًا ، فَلَمَّا قَفَّى ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَئِنْ صَدَقَ لَيَدْخُلَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ " قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ رَضِيَ الِلَّهِ عَنْهُ : هَذَا النَّوْعُ مِثْلُ الْوُضُوءِ ، وَالتَّيَمُّمِ ، وَالاغْتِسَالِ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ ، وَالصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ ، وَالصَّوْمِ الْفَرْضِ ، وَمَا أَشْبَهَ هَذِهِ الأَشْيَاءَ الَّتِي هِيَ فَرْضٌ عَلَى الْمُخَاطَبِينَ فِي بَعْضِ الأَحْوَالِ لا الْكُلِّ .
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We were forbidden from asking the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about anything. So we used to wish that a Bedouin would come to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and ask him a question, so we could listen to it. Once, a Bedouin came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). He said: O Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), your messenger came to us. He said: You say that Allah Almighty has sent you. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: He spoke the truth. The man asked: Who created the sky? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: Allah Almighty. He asked: Who created the earth? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: Allah Almighty. He asked: Who set up these mountains? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: Allah Almighty. He asked: Who placed benefits in them? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: Allah Almighty. He said: Then by the One who created the heavens and the earth, and set up the mountains, and placed benefits in them, I ask you (by His name), did Allah Almighty send you? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: Yes. He said: Your messenger told us that it will be obligatory for us to pray five prayers (daily). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: He spoke the truth. He asked: By the One who sent you, did Allah Almighty command you this? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: Yes! He said: Your messenger told us that paying zakat from our wealth will be obligatory. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: He spoke the truth. The man said: By the One who sent you, did Allah Almighty command you this? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Yes! He said: Your messenger also told us that fasting for one month in the whole year will be obligatory upon us. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: He spoke the truth. The man said: I ask you by the One who sent you, did Allah Almighty command you this? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Yes!
(Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says: Rulings of this nature, such as wudu, tayammum, ghusl janabah, five prayers, obligatory fasting, and other such rulings, are obligatory upon the addressed individuals in some circumstances, not in all circumstances.)

Hadith 156
أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ بِسْطَامٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْبَدٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا بَعَثَ مُعَ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّكَ تَقَدْمَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ ، فَلْيَكُنْ أَوَّلَ مَا تَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَيْهِ عِبَادَةُ اللَّهِ ، فَعَرَفُوا اللَّهَ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي يَوْمِهِمْ وَلَيْلَتِهِمْ ، وَفَعَلُوهَا فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ زَكَاةً تُؤْخَذُ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِمْ ، فَتُرَدُّ عَلَى فُقَرَائِهِمْ ، فَأَطَاعُوا بِهَذَا فَخُذْ مِنْهُمْ ، وَتَوَقَّ كَرَائِمَ أَمْوَالِ النَّاسِ " ، قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ رَضِيَ الِلَّهِ عَنْهُ : هَذَا النَّوْعُ مِثْلُ الْحَجِّ وَالزَّكَاةِ وَمَا أَشْبَهَهُمَا مِنَ الْفَرَائِضِ الَّتِي فُرِضَتْ عَلَى بَعْضِ الْعَاقِلِينَ الْبَالِغِينَ فِي بَعْضِ الأَحْوَالِ لا الْكُلِّ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: When the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Mu’adh (may Allah be pleased with him) to Yemen, he said: “You are going to a people from among the People of the Book, so first invite them to the worship of Allah. When they come to know Allah, then inform them that Allah has made five prayers obligatory upon them in every day and night. When they do this, then inform them that Allah has made zakat obligatory upon them, which will be taken from their wealth and returned to their poor. When they obey this, then take zakat from them, but avoid taking the best of people’s wealth.”
(Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) This category, such as Hajj and Zakat and other similar obligations, are those which are made obligatory upon some sane and mature people in certain specific circumstances; they are not obligatory in every situation (i.e., zakat is obligatory upon the one who possesses the nisab and a year passes over it, and Hajj is obligatory upon the one for whom it is possible to reach Makkah during the specific days of Hajj. These are not obligatory upon every Muslim in every situation.)

أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو جَمْرَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : قَدْمَ وَفْدُ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى الِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا هَذَا الْحَيَّ مِنْ رَبِيعَةَ ، قَدْ حَالَتْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكَ كُفَّارُ مُضَرَ ، وَلا نَخْلُصُ إِلَيْكَ إِلا فِي شَهْرٍ حَرَامٍ ، فَمُرْنَا بِأَمْرٍ نَعْمَلُ بِهِ ، وَنَدْعُو إِلَيْهِ مَنْ وَرَاءَنَا ، قَالَ : " آمُرُكُمْ بِأَرْبَعٍ : الإِيمَانِ بِاللَّهِ ، شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، وَإِقَامِ الصَّلاةِ ، وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ ، وَأَنْ تُؤَدُّوا خُمُسَ مَا غَنِمْتُمْ ، وَأَنْهَاكُمْ عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ ، وَالْحَنْتَمِ ، وَالنَّقِيرِ ، وَالْمُقَيَّرِ " ، قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ : رَوَى هَذَا الْخَبَرَ قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ ، وَعِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَأَبِي نَضْرَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A delegation from the tribe of Abdul Qais came to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). They said: O Messenger of Allah! We belong to the tribe of Rabi’ah. Between us and you are the disbelievers of the tribe of Mudar, who act as a barrier. Therefore, we can only come to you during the sacred months. Please command us with something that we may act upon and invite those behind us to it as well. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: I command you with four things: to have faith in Allah, that is, to bear witness that there is no deity except Allah and that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the Messenger of Allah, to establish prayer, to give zakat, and to pay the fifth (khums) from the spoils of war. And I forbid you from (using) Dubba’, Hantam, Naqir, and Muqayyar. This narration has been transmitted by Qatadah from Sa’id bin Musayyib and Ikrimah from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), and by Abu Nadrah from Sayyiduna Abu Sa’id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him).
