حديث أَنسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، وَحَانَتْ صَلَاة الْعَصْرِ، فَالْتَمَسَ النَّاسُ الْوَضُوءَ، فَلَمْ يَجِدُوهُ، فَأُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِوَضُوءٍ، فَوَضَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فِي ذلِكَ الإِنَاءِ يَدَهُ، وَأَمَرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّؤُوا مِنْهُ قَالَ: فَرَأَيْتُ الْمَاءَ يَنْبَعُ مِنْ تَحْتِ أَصَابِعِهِ، حَتَّى تَوَضَّؤُوا مِنْ عِنْدَ آخِرِهِمْ.
I saw Allâh's Messenger ﷺ when the 'Asr prayer was due and the people searched for water to perform ablution but they could not find it. Later on (a vessel full of) water for ablution was brought to Allâh's Messenger ﷺ. He put his hand in that vessel and ordered the people to perform ablution from it. I saw the water springing out from underneath his fingers till all of them performed the ablution (it was one of the miracles of the Prophet ﷺ). ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 170, Vol. 1 )
حديث أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ قَالَ: غَزَوْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ غَزْوَةَ تَبُوكَ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ وَادِيَ الْقُرَى، إِذَا امْرَأَةٌ فِي حَدِيقَةٍ لَهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، لأَصْحَابِهِ اخْرُصُوا وَخَرَصَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَشَرَةَ أَوْسُقٍ فَقَالَ لَهَا: أَحْصِي مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا فَلَمَّا أَتَيْنَا تَبُوكَ، قَالَ: أَمَا إِنَّهَا سَتَهُبُّ اللَّيْلَةَ رِيحٌ شَدِيدَةٌ، فَلَا يَقُومَنَّ أَحَدٌ، وَمَنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ ⦗٩١⦘ بَعِيرٌ فَلْيَعْقِلْهُ فَعَقَلْنَاهَا وَهَبَّتْ رِيحٌ شَدِيدَةٌ؛ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَأَلْقَتْهُ بِجَبَلِ طَيِّءوَأَهْدَى مَلِكُ أَيْلَةَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ بَغْلَةً بَيْضَاءَ، وَكَسَاهُ بُرْدًا وَكَتَبَ لَهُ بِبَحْرِهِمْفَلَمَّا أَتى وَادِيَ الْقُرَى، قَالَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ: كَمْ جَاءَ حِدِيقَتُكِ قَالَتْ: عَشَرَةَ أَوْسُقٍ، خَرْصَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: إِنِّي مُتَعَجِّلٌ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، فَمَنْ أَرَادَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَتَعَجَّلَ مَعِي فَلْيَتَعَجَّلْفَلَمَّا أَشْرَفَ عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، قَالَ: هذِهِ طَابَةُ فَلَمَّا رَأَى أُحُدًا، قَالَ: هذَا جُبَيْلٌ يُحِبُّنَا وَنُحِبُّهُ، أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ دُورِ الأَنْصَارِ قَالُوا: بَلَى قَالَ: دُورُ بَنِي النَّجَّارِ، ثُمَّ دُورُ بَنِي عَبْدِ الأَشْهَلِ، ثُمَّ دُورُ بَنِي سَاعِدَةَ، أَوْ دُورُ بَنِي الْحارثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، وَفِي كُلِّ دُورِ الأَنْصَارِ يَعْنِي خَيْرًا١٤٦٩ - فَلَحِقْنَا سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ: أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ، خَيَّرَ الأَنْصَارَ فَجَعَلَنَا أَخِيرًا فَأَدْرَكَ سَعْدٌ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ خُيِّرَ دُورُ الأَنْصَارِ فَجُعِلْنَا آخِرًا فَقَالَ: أَوَلَيْسَ بِحَسْبكُمْ أَنْ تَكُونُوا مِنَ الْخِيَارِ.
We took part in the holy battle of Tabûk in the company of the Prophet ﷺ and when we arrived at the Wâdî-al-Qura, there was a woman in her garden. The Prophet ﷺ asked his companions to estimate the amount of the fruits in the garden, and Allâh's Messenger ﷺ estimated it at ten Awsuq (One Wasaq = 60 Sâ', and 1 Sâ' = 3 Kgs. approximately). The Prophet ﷺ said to that lady, "Check what your garden will yield."When we reached Tabûk, the Prophet ﷺ said, "There will be a strong wind tonight and so no one should stand and whoever has a camel, should fasten it." So we fastened our camels. A strong wind blew at night and a man stood up and he was blown away to a mountain called Taîy. The King of Aila sent a white mule and a sheet for wearing to the Prophet ﷺ as a present, and wrote to the Prophet ﷺ that his people would stay in their place (and will pay Jizya taxation). [1]When the Prophet ﷺ reached Wâdî-al-Qura he asked that woman how much her garden had yielded. She said, "Ten Awsuq," and that was what Allâh's Messenger ﷺ had estimated. Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "I want to reach Al-Madîna quickly, and whoever among you wants to accompany me, should hurry up."The subnarrator Ibn Bakkâr said something which meant: When the Prophet ﷺ saw Al-Madîna he said, "This is Tâba." And when he saw the mountain of Uhud, he said, "This mountain loves us and we love it. Shall I tell you of the best of the families of the Ansâr ?" They replied in the affirmative. He said, "The family of Banî An-Najjâr, and then the family of Banî 'Abdul Ashhal, then the family of Banî Sâ'ida or Banî Al-Hârith bin Al-Khazraj. (The above-mentioned are the best) but there is goodness in all the families of Ansâr."Sa'd bin 'Ubâda followed us and said, "O Abû Usaid! Don't you see that the Prophet ﷺ compared the Ansâr and made us the last of them in superiority?" Then Sa'd met the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Allâh's Messenger! In comparing the Ansâr families as to the degree of superiority, you have made us the last of them." Allâh's Messenger ﷺ replied, "Isn't it sufficient that you are regarded amongst the best?" ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 559, Vol. 2 & Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 135, Vol. 5)
[1] ( Jizya is a head tax imposed by Islâm on the people of Scripture and other people who have a revealed Book when they are under Muslim rule.
43/4. Chapter:
حديث جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ غَزْوَةَ نَجْدٍ فَلَمَّا أَدْرَكَتْهُ الْقَائِلَةُ، وَهُوَ فِي وَادٍ كَثِيرِ الْعِضَاهِ، فَنَزَلَ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ، وَاسْتَظَلَّ بِهَا، وَعَلَّقَ سَيْفَهُ فَتَفَرَّقَ النَّاسُ فِي الشَّجَرِ يَسْتَظِلُّونَ وَبَيْنَا نَحْنُ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ دَعَانَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَجِئْنَا، فَإِذَا أَعْرَابِيٌّ قَاعِدٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ هذَا أَتَانِي وَأَنَا نَائِمٌ فَاخْتَرَطَ سَيْفِي فَاسْتَيْقَظْتُ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رَأْسِي، مُخْتَرِطٌ صَلْتًا قَالَ: مَنْ يَمْنَعكَ مِنِّي قُلْتُ: اللهُ فَشَامَهُ، ثُمَّ قَعَدَ فَهُوَ هذَا قَالَ: وَلَمْ يُعَاقِبْهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ.
We took part in the Ghazwa of Najd along with Allâh's Messenger ﷺ and when the time for the afternoon rest approached while he was in a valley with plenty of thorny trees, he dismounted under a tree and rested in its shade and hung his sword (on it). The people dispersed amongst the trees in order to have shade. While we were in this state, Allâh's Messenger ﷺ called, and we came and found a bedouin sitting in front of him.The Prophet ﷺ said, "This (bedouin) came to me while I was asleep, and he took my sword stealthily. I woke up while he was standing by my head, holding my sword without its sheath. He said, 'Who will save you from me?' I replied, 'Allâh.' So he sheathed it (i.e. the sword) and sat down, and here he is." But Allâh's Messenger ﷺ did not punish him. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 460, Vol. 5)
43/5. Chapter:
حديث أَبِي مُوسى، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَ: مَثَلُ مَا بَعَثَنِي اللهُ بِهِ مِنَ الْهُدَى وَالْعِلْمِ، كَمَثَلِ الْغَيْثِ الْكَثِيرِ، أَصَابَ أَرْضًا، فَكَانَ مِنْهَا نَقِيَّةٌ قَبِلَتِ الْمَاءَ فَأَنْبَتَتِ الْكَلأَ وَالْعُشْبَ الْكَثِيرَ وَكَانَ مِنْهَا أَجَادِبُ أَمْسَكَتِ الْمَاءَ فَنَفَعَ اللهُ بِهَا النَّاسَ فَشَرِبُوا وَسَقَوْا وَزَرَعُوا وَأَصَابَتْ مِنْهَا طَائِفَةً أُخْرَى، إِنَّمَا هِيَ قِيعَانٌ لَا تُمْسِكُ مَاءً، وَلَا تَنْبتُ كَلأَ، فَذَلِكَ مَثَلُ مَنْ فَقِهَ فِي دِينِ اللهِ وَنَفَعَهُ مَا بَعَثَنِي اللهُ بِهِ، فَعَلِمَ وَعَلَّمَ وَمَثَلُ مَنْ لَمْ يَرْفَعْ بِذَلِكَ رَأْسًا وَلَمْ يَقْبَلْ هُدَى اللهِ الَّذِي أُرْسِلْتُ بِهِ⦗٩٣⦘ وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: وَكَانَ مِنْهَا طَائِفَةٌ قَيَّلَتِ الْمَاءَ.
The Prophet ﷺ said, "The example of guidance and knowledge [the Qur'ân and the Sunna (legal ways of the Prophet ﷺ) with which Allâh has sent me is like abundant rain falling on the earth, some of which was fertile soil that absorbed rain water and brought forth vegetation and grass in abundance. (And) another portion of it was hard and held the rain water and Allâh benefited the people with it and they utilized it for drinking, (making their animals drink from it) and to irrigate the land for cultivation. (And) a portion of it was barren which could neither hold the water nor bring forth vegetation (then that land gave no benefits). The first is the example of the person who comprehends Allâh's religion ( Islâm) and gets benefit (from the knowledge) which Allâh has revealed through me (the Prophet ﷺ) and learns and then teaches it to others. The (last example is that of a) person who does not care for it and does not take Allâh's Guidance revealed through me (he is like that barren land)." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 79, Vol. 1)
43/6. Chapter:
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، يَقُولُ: إِنَّمَا مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ النَّاسِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ اسْتَوْقَدَ نَارًا، فَلَمَّا أَضَاءَتْ مَا حَوْلَهُ، جَعَلَ الْفَرَاشُ ⦗٩٤⦘ وَهذِهِ الدَّوَابُّ الَّتِي تَقَعُ فِي النَّارِ يَقَعْنَ فِيهَا، فَجَعَلَ يَنْزِعُهُنَّ وَيَغْلِبُنَهُ، فَيَقْتَحِمنَ فِيهَا فَأَنَا آخُذُ بِحُجَزِكُمْ عَنِ النَّارِ وَهُمْ يَقْتَحِمُونَ فِيهَا.
I heard Allâh's Messenger ﷺ saying, "My example and the example of the people is that of a man who made a fire, and when it lighted what was around it, moths and other insects started falling into the fire. The man tried (his best) to prevent them (from falling in the fire) but they overpowered him and rushed into the fire.” The Prophet ﷺ added: “Now, similarly, I take hold of the knots at your waist (belts) to prevent you from falling into the fire, but you insist on falling into it.” [1] ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 490, Vol. 8 )
[1] The fire symbolizes the unlawful deeds about which the Prophet ﷺ warned the people.
43/7. Chapter:
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: إِنَّ مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ مِنْ قَبْلِي كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ بَنى بَيْتًا فَأَحْسَنَهُ وَأَجْمَلَهُ إِلَاّ مَوْضِعَ لَبِنَةٍ مِنْ زَاوِيَةٍ، فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَطُوفُونَ بِهِ، وَيَعْجَبُونَ لَهُ، وَيَقُولُونَ: هَلَاّ وُضِعَتْ هذِهِ اللَّبِنَةُ فَأَنَا اللَّبِنَةُ، وَأَنَا خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ.
Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ said, “My example and the example of the other Prophets before me, is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully, except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go round about it and wonder at its beauty, and say, ‘Would that this brick be put in its place!’ So I am that brick, and I am the last (end) of all the Prophets.” ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 735, Vol. 4 )
حديث جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ كَرَجُلٍ بَنى دَارًا فَأَكْمَلَهَا وَأَحْسَنَهَا إِلَاّ مَوْضِعَ لَبِنَةٍ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَدْخُلُونَهَا وَيَتَعَجَّبُونَ وَيَقُولُونَ: لَوْلَا مَوُضِعُ اللَّبِنَةِ.
The Prophet ﷺ said, “My example and the example of the other Prophets is that of a man who has built a house completely and excellently except for a place of one brick. When the people enter the house, they wonder at its beauty, and say, ‘But for the place of this brick (how splendid the house will be)!’” ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 734, Vol. 4 ) water-reservoir, tank etc.) and its characteristics.
43/9. Chapter:
حديث جُنْدَبٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، يَقُولُ: أَنَا فَرَطكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ.
I heard the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم saying, "I am your predecessor at the Haud (Al-Kauthar) . ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 589, Vol. 8)
حديث سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: إِنِّي فَرَطُكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ، مَنْ مَرَّ عَلَيَّ شَرِبَ، وَمَنْ شَرِبَ لَمْ يَظْمَأْ أَبَدًا لَيَرِدَنَّ عَلَيَّ أَقْوَامٌ أَعْرِفُهُمْ وَيَعْرِفُونِي، ثُمَّ يُحَالُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ.
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "I am your predecessor (forerunner) at the Haud (Al-Kauthar), and whoever will pass by me there, he will drink from it, and whoever will drink from it, he will never be thirsty (again). There will come to me some people, whom I will recognize, and they will recognize me, but a barrier will be placed between me and them (i.e. they will be driven away from it)." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 585, Vol. 8)
حديث أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، يَزِيدُ فِيهِ فَأَقُولُ: إِنَّهُمْ مِنِّي، فَيُقَالُ إِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي مَا أَحْدَثُوا بَعْدَكَ، فَأَقُولُ: سُحْقًا سُحْقًا لِمَنْ غَيَّرَ بَعْدِي.
Narrated Abû Sa'îd Al-Khudrî رضي الله عنه (the same as Hadith No. 1476) and added that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "I will say: They are of me (i.e. my followers)." It will be said, "You do not know what they innovated (new things) in the religion after you (left)." Then I will say, "Far removed, far removed (from mercy), those who changed (their religion) after me." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 585, Vol. 8)
