Huraira:
I heard Allah's
Apostle saying, "By Him in Whose Hands my
life is! Were it not for some men who dislike to
be left behind and for whom I do not have means of
conveyance, I would not stay away (from any Holy
Battle). I would love to be martyred in Allah's
Cause and come to life and then get, martyred and
then come to life and then get martyred and then

and then get martyred and then resurrected (come
to life) and then get martyred and then
resurrected (come to life) and then get martyred,
and then resurrected (come to life) and then get
martyred and then resurrected (come to
life)." Abu Huraira used to repeat those
words three times and I testify to it with Allah's
Oath.
Volume

Narrated Abu
Huraira:
The Prophet said,
"If I had gold equal to the mountain of Uhud,
I would love that, before three days had passed,
not a single Dinar thereof remained with me if I
found somebody to accept it excluding some amount
that I would keep for the payment of my debts.''
Volume

Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle
said, "If I had formerly known hat I came to
know lately, I would not have driven the Hadi with
me and would have finished the state of Ihram
along with the people when they finished it
Volume
9, Book 90, Number 336:
Narrated Jabir bin
Abdullah:
We were in the
company of Allah's Apostle and we assumed the
state of Ihram of Hajj and arrived at Mecca on the
fourth of Dhul-Hijja. The Prophet ordered us to
perform the Tawaf around the Ka'ba and (Sa'i)
between As-Safa and Al-Marwa and use our lhram
just for 'Umra, and finish the state of Ihram
unless we had our Hadi with us. None of us had the
Hadi with him except the Prophet and Talha. 1AIj
came from Yemen and brought the Hadi with him.
'Ali said, 'I had assumed the state of Ihram with
the same intention as that with which Allah's
Apostle had assumed it. The people said, "How
can we proceed to Mina and our male organs are
dribbling?" Allah's Apostle said, "If I
had formerly known what I came to know latterly, I
would not have brought the Hadi, and had there
been no Hadi with me, I would have finished my
Ihram." Suraqa (bin Malik) met the Prophet
while he was throwing pebbles at the
Jamrat-al-'Aqaba, and asked, "O Allah's
Apostle! Is this (permitted) for us only?"
The Prophet replied. "No, it is forever"
'Aisha had arrived at Mecca while she was
menstruating, therefore the Prophet ordered her to
perform all the ceremonies of Hajj except the
Tawaf around the Ka'ba, and not to perform her
prayers unless and until she became clean . When
they encamped at Al-Batha, 'Aisha said, "O
Allah's Apostle! You are proceeding after
performing both Hajj and 'Umra while I am
proceeding with Hajj only?" So the Prophet
ordered 'Abdur-Rahman bin Abu Bakr As-Siddiq to go
with her to At-Tan'im, and so she performed the 'Umra
in Dhul-Hijja after the days of the Hajj.
Volume
9, Book 90, Number 337:
Narrated Aisha:
One night the
Prophet was unable to sleep and said, "Would
that a righteous man from my companions guarded me
tonight." Suddenly we heard the clatter of
arms, whereupon the Prophet said, "Who is
it?" It was said, "I am Sa'd, O Allah's
Apostle! I have come to guard you." The
Prophet then slept so soundly that we heard him
snoring. Abu 'Abdullah said: 'Aisha said: Bilal
said, "Would that I but stayed overnight in a
valley with Idhkhir and Jalil (two kinds of grass)
around me (i.e., in Mecca)." Then I told that
to the Prophet .

Huraira:

said, "Not to wish to be the like except of
two men. A man whom Allah has given the (knowledge
of the) Qur'an and he recites it during the hours
of night and day and the one who wishes says: If I
were given the same as this (man) has been given,
I would do what he does, and a man whom Allah has
given wealth and he spends it in the just and
right way, in which case the one who wishes says,
'If I were given the same as he has been given, I
would do what he does.' " (See Hadith No. 543

was covering the whiteness of his abdomen, and he
(the Prophet ) was saying, "(O Allah) !
Without You, we would not have been guided, nor
would we have given in charity, nor would we have
prayed. So (O Allah!) please send tranquility (Sakina)
upon us as they, (the chiefs of the enemy tribes)
have rebelled against us. And if they intend
affliction (i.e. want to frighten us and fight
against us) then we would not (flee but withstand
them). And the Prophet used to raise his voice
with it. (See Hadith No. 430 and 432, Vol. 5)

head, and said, "Were I not afraid that it

The Prophet fasted
Al-Wisal on the last days of the month. Some
people did the same, and when the news reached the
Prophet he said, "If the month had been
prolonged for me, then I would have fasted Wisal
for such a long time that the most exaggerating
ones among you would have given up their
exaggeration. I am not like you; my Lord always
makes me eat and drink."
Volume

Huraira:
Allah's Apostle
forbade Al-Wisal. The people said (to him),
"But you fast Al-'Wisal," He said,
"Who among you is like me? When I sleep (at
night), my Lord makes me eat and drink. But when
the people refused to give up Al-Wisal, he fasted
Al-Wisal along with them for two days and then
they saw the crescent whereupon the Prophet said,
"If the crescent had not appeared I would
have fasted for a longer period," as if he
intended to punish them herewith.

I asked the Prophet
about the wall (outside the Ka'ba). "Is it
regarded as part of the Ka'ba?" He replied,
"Yes." I said, "Then why didn't the
people include it in the Ka'ba?" He said,
"(Because) your people ran short of
money." I asked, "Then why is its gate
so high?" He replied, ''Your people did so in
order to admit to it whom they would and forbid
whom they would. Were your people not still close
to the period of ignorance, and were I not afraid
that their hearts might deny my action, then
surely I would include the wall in the Ka'ba and
make its gate touch the ground."
