Narrated Jabir (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

 

My father had died in debt. So I came to the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa

Sallam) and said, "My father (died) leaving unpaid debts, and I have

nothing except the yield of his date palms; and their yield for many years

will not cover his debts. So please come with me, so that the creditors may

not misbehave with me." The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) went

round one of the heaps of dates and invoked (Allah), and then did the same

with another heap and sat on it and said, "Measure (for them)." He paid

them their rights and what remained was as much as had been paid to them.

A bowl of water was brought to the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam)

hundred or nearly three-hundred."

Virtues of the Prophet (PBUH) and Companions - 2nd Muharram 1432 (8th December 2010)

 

Narrated Anas (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

 

Once during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam),

the people of Medina suffered from drought. So while the Prophet

(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) was delivering a sermon on a Friday a man

got up saying, "O Allah's Apostle! The horses and sheep have perished. Will

you invoke Allah to bless us with rain?" The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa

Sallam) lifted both his hands and invoked. The sky at that time was as

clear as glass. Suddenly a wind blew, raising clouds that gathered

together, and it started raining heavily. We came out (of the Mosque)

wading through the flowing water till we reached our homes. It went on

raining till the next Friday, when the same man or some other man stood up

and said, "O Allah's Apostle! The houses have collapsed; please invoke

Allah to withhold the rain." On that the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa

Sallam) smiled and said, "O Allah, (let it rain) around us and not on us."

I then looked at the clouds to see them separating forming a sort of a

crown round Medina.

Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

 

The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) used to stand by a tree or a

date-palm on Friday. Then an Ansari woman or man said. "O Allah's Apostle!

Shall we make a pulpit for you?" He replied, "If you wish." So they made a

pulpit for him and when it was Friday, he proceeded towards the pulpit (for

delivering the sermon). The date-palm cried like a child! The Prophet

(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) descended (the pulpit) and embraced it while

it continued moaning like a child being quietened. The Prophet (Sallallahu

'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "It was crying for (missing) what it used to hear

of religious knowledge given near to it."

Virtues of the Prophet (PBUH) and Companions - 4th Muharram 1432 (10th December 2010)

 

Narrated Anas (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

 

There was a Christian who embraced Islam and read Surat-al-Baqara and

Al-Imran, and he used to write (the revelations) for the Prophet

(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam). Later on he returned to Christianity again

and he used to say: "Muhammad knows nothing but what I have written for

him." Then Allah caused him to die, and the people buried him, but in the

morning they saw that the earth had thrown his body out. They said, "This

is the act of Muhammad and his companions. They dug the grave of our

companion and took his body out of it because he had run away from them."

They again dug the grave deeply for him, but in the morning they again saw

that the earth had thrown his body out. They said, "This is an act of

Muhammad and his companions. They dug the grave of our companion and threw

his body outside it, for he had run away from them." They dug the grave for

him as deep as they could, but in the morning they again saw that the earth

had thrown his body out. So they believed that what had befallen him was

not done by human beings and had to leave him thrown (on the ground).

Narrated 'Aisha (Radi-Allahu 'anha):

 

Once Fatima came walking and her gait resembled the gait of the Prophet

(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam). The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam)

said, "Welcome, O my daughter!" Then he made her sit on his right or on his

left side, and then he told her a secret and she started weeping. I asked

her, "Why are you weeping?" He again told her a secret and she started

laughing. I said, "I never saw happiness so near to sadness as I saw

today." I asked her what the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) had

told her. She said, "I would never disclose the secret of Allah's Apostle."

When the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) died, I asked her about it.

She replied, "The Prophet said: 'Every year Gabriel used to revise the

Qur'an with me once only, but this year he has done so twice. I think this

portends my death, and you will be the first of my family to follow me.' So

I started weeping. Then he said. 'Don't you like to be the mistress of all

the ladies of Paradise or the mistress of all the lady believers?' So I

laughed for that."

who will bear witness without being asked to do so, and will be treacherous

and untrustworthy, and they will vow and never fulfill their vows, and

fatness will appear among them.'

He added, "Will anyone be called from all those gates, O Allah's Apostle?"

glad tidings of entering Paradise." I opened (the gate) for him, and

behold! It was 'Umar. I informed him of what the Prophet (Sallallahu

'Alaihi Wa Sallam) had said, and he praised Allah.

 

Then another man came and asked me to open the gate. The Prophet

(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said to me. "Open (the gate) for him and

inform him of the glad tidings, of entering Paradise with a calamity which

will befall him. " Behold ! It was 'Uthman, I informed him of what Allah's

Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) had said. He praised Allah and said,

"I seek Allah's Aid."

Companions of the Prophet (PBUH) - 17th Muharram 1432 (23rd December 2010)

 

Narrated 'Amr bin Maimun (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

 

I saw 'Umar bin Al-Khattab a few days before he was stabbed in Medina. He

was standing with Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman and 'Uthman bin Hunaif to whom he

said, "What have you done? Do you think that you have imposed more taxation

on the land (of As-Swad i.e. 'Iraq) than it can bear?" They replied, "We

have imposed on it what it can bear because of its great yield." 'Umar

again said, "Check whether you have imposed on the land what it can not

bear." They said, "No, (we haven't)." 'Umar added, "If Allah should keep me

alive I will let the widows of Iraq need no men to support them after me."

But only four days had elapsed when he was stabbed (to death). The day he

was stabbed, I was standing and there was nobody between me and him (i.e.

Umar) except Abdullah bin 'Abbas. Whenever Umar passed between the two

rows, he would say, "Stand in straight lines."

 

When he saw no defect (in the rows), he would go forward and start the

prayer with Takbir. He would recite Surat Yusuf or An-Nahl or the like in

the first Rak'a so that the people may have the time to Join the prayer. As

soon as he said Takbir, I heard him saying, "The dog has killed or eaten

me," at the time he (i.e. the murderer) stabbed him. A non-Arab infidel

proceeded on carrying a double-edged knife and stabbing all the persons he

passed by on the right and left (till) he stabbed thirteen persons out of

whom seven died. When one of the Muslims saw that, he threw a cloak on him.

Realizing that he had been captured, the non-Arab infidel killed himself,

'Umar held the hand of 'Abdur-Rahman bin Auf and let him lead the prayer.

 

Those who were standing by the side of 'Umar saw what I saw, but the people

who were in the other parts of the Mosque did not see anything, but they

lost the voice of 'Umar and they were saying, "Subhan Allah! Subhan Allah!

(i.e. Glorified be Allah)." Abdur-Rahman bin Auf led the people a short

prayer. When they finished the prayer, 'Umar said, "O Ibn 'Abbas! Find out

who attacked me." Ibn 'Abbas kept on looking here and there for a short

time and came to say. "The slave of Al Mughira." On that 'Umar said, "The

craftsman?" Ibn 'Abbas said, "Yes." 'Umar said, "May Allah curse him. I did

not treat him unjustly. All the Praises are for Allah Who has not caused me

to die at the hand of a man who claims himself to be a Muslim. No doubt,

you and your father (Abbas) used to love to have more non-Arab infidels in

Medina." Al-Abbas had the greatest number of slaves. Ibn 'Abbas said to

'Umar. "If you wish, we will do." He meant, "If you wish we will kill

them." 'Umar said, "You are mistaken (for you can't kill them) after they

have spoken your language, prayed towards your Qibla, and performed Hajj

like yours."

 

Then Umar was carried to his house, and we went along with him, and the

people were as if they had never suffered a calamity before. Some said, "Do

not worry (he will be Alright soon)." Some said, "We are afraid (that he

will die)." Then an infusion of dates was brought to him and he drank it

but it came out (of the wound) of his belly. Then milk was brought to him

and he drank it, and it also came out of his belly. The people realized

that he would die. We went to him, and the people came, praising him. A

young man came saying, "O chief of the believers! Receive the glad tidings

from Allah, due to your company with Allah's Apostle and your superiority

in Islam which you know. Then you became the ruler (i.e. Caliph) and you

ruled with justice and finally you have been martyred." 'Umar said, "I wish

that all these privileges will counterbalance (my shortcomings) so that I

will neither lose nor gain anything."

 

When the young man turned back to leave, his clothes seemed to be touching

the ground. 'Umar said, "Call the young man back to me." (When he came

back) 'Umar said, "O son of my brother! Lift your clothes, for this will

keep your clothes clean and save you from the Punishment of your Lord."

'Umar further said, "O 'Abdullah bin 'Umar! See how much I am in debt to

others." When the debt was checked, it amounted to approximately eighty-six

thousand. 'Umar said, "If the property of 'Umar's family covers the debt,

then pay the debt thereof; otherwise request it from Bani 'Adi bin Ka'b,

and if that too is not sufficient, ask for it from Quraish tribe, and do

not ask for it from any one else, and pay this debt on my behalf."

 

'Umar then said (to 'Abdullah), "Go to 'Aisha (the mother of the believers)

and say: "Umar is paying his salutation to you. But don't say: 'The chief

of the believers,' because today I am not the chief of the believers. And

say: "Umar bin Al-Khattab asks the permission to be buried with his two

companions (i.e. the Prophet, and Abu Bakr)." Abdullah greeted 'Aisha and

asked for the permission for entering, and then entered to her and found

her sitting and weeping. He said to her, "'Umar bin Al-Khattab is paying

his salutations to you, and asks the permission to be buried with his two

companions." She said, "I had the idea of having this place for myself, but

today I prefer Umar to myself." When he returned it was said (to 'Umar),

"'Abdullah bin 'Umar has come." 'Umar said, "Make me sit up." Somebody

supported him against his body and 'Umar asked ('Abdullah), "What news do

you have?" He said, "O chief of the believers! It is as you wish. She has

given permission." 'Umar said, "Praise be to Allah, there was nothing more

important to me than this. So when I die, take me, and greet 'Aisha and

say: "Umar bin Al-Khattab asks permission (to be buried with the Prophet

(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) ), and if she gives permission, bury me

there, and if she refuses, then take me to the grave-yard of the Muslims."

 

Then Hafsa (the mother of the believers) came with many other women walking

with her. When we saw her, we went away. She went in (to 'Umar) and wept

there for sometime. When the men asked for permission to enter, she went

into another place, and we heard her weeping inside. The people said (to

'Umar), "O chief of the believers! Appoint a successor." Umar said, "I do

not find anyone more suitable for the job than the following persons or

group whom Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) had been pleased

with before he died." Then 'Umar mentioned 'Ali, 'Uthman, AzZubair, Talha,

Sad and 'Abdur-Rahman (bin Auf) and said, "Abdullah bin 'Umar will be a

witness to you, but he will have no share in the rule. His being a witness

will compensate him for not sharing the right of ruling. If Sad becomes the

ruler, it will be alright: otherwise, whoever becomes the ruler should seek

his help, as I have not dismissed him because of disability or dishonesty."

'Umar added, "I recommend that my successor takes care of the early

emigrants; to know their rights and protect their honor and sacred things.

 

I also recommend that he be kind to the Ansar who had lived in Medina

before the emigrants and before Belief had entered their hearts. I

recommend that the (ruler) should accept the good of the righteous among

them and excuse their wrong-doers, and I recommend that he should do good

to all the people of the towns (Al-Ansar), as they are the protectors of

Islam and the source of wealth and the source of annoyance to the enemy. I

also recommend that nothing be taken from them except from their surplus

with their consent. I also recommend that he do good to the 'Arab bedouin,

as they are the origin of the 'Arabs and the material of Islam. He should

take from what is inferior, amongst their properties and distribute that to

the poor amongst them. I also recommend him concerning Allah's and His

Apostle's protectees (i.e. Dhimmis) to fulfill their contracts and to fight

for them and not to overburden them with what is beyond their ability." So

when 'Umar expired, we carried him out and set out walking. 'Abdullah bin

'Umar greeted ('Aisha) and said, "'Umar bin Al-Khattab asks for

permission." 'Aisha said, "Bring him in." He was brought in and buried

beside his two companions.

 

When he was buried, the group (recommended by 'Umar) held a meeting. Then

'Abdur-Rahman said, " Reduce the candidates for rulership to three of you."

Az-Zubair said, "I give up my right to Ali." Talha said, "I give up my

right to 'Uthman," Sad, 'I give up my right to 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Auf."

'Abdur-Rahman then said (to 'Uthman and 'Ali), "Now which of you is willing

to give up his right of candidacy to that he may choose the better of the

(remaining) two, bearing in mind that Allah and Islam will be his

witnesses." So both the sheiks (i.e. 'Uthman and 'Ali) kept silent.

'Abdur-Rahman said, "Will you both leave this matter to me, and I take

Allah as my Witness that I will not choose but the better of you?" They

said, "Yes." So 'Abdur-Rahman took the hand of one of them (i.e. 'Ali) and

said, "You are related to Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam)

and one of the earliest Muslims as you know well. So I ask you by Allah to

promise that if I select you as a ruler you will do justice, and if I

select 'Uthman as a ruler you will listen to him and obey him." Then he

took the other (i.e. 'Uthman) aside and said the same to him. When

'Abdur-Rahman secured (their agreement to) this covenant, he said, "O

'Uthman! Raise your hand." So he (i.e. 'Abdur-Rahman) gave him (i.e.

'Uthman) the solemn pledge, and then 'Ali gave him the pledge of allegiance

and then all the (Medina) people gave him the pledge of allegiance.

Allah, whenever you have a difficulty, Allah took you out of it and brought

with it, a Blessing for the Muslims."

'Ashura' (i.e. the tenth of Muharram) was a day on which the tribe of

Quraish used to fast in the pre-lslamic period of ignorance. The Prophet

(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) also used to fast on this day. So when he

migrated to Medina, he fasted on it and ordered (the Muslims) to fast on

it. When the fasting of Ramadan was enjoined, it became optional for the

people to fast or not to fast on the day of Ashura.

Abu Bakr went to a lady from the Ahmas tribe called Zainab bint Al-Muhajir

and found that she refused to speak. He asked, "Why does she not speak?"

The people said, "She has intended to perform Hajj without speaking." He

said to her, "Speak, for it is illegal not to speak, as it is an action of

the pre-Islamic period of ignorance. So she spoke and said, "Who are you?"

He said, "A man from the Emigrants." She asked, "Which Emigrants?" He

replied, "From Quraish." She asked, "From what branch of Quraish are you?"

He said, "You ask too many questions; I am Abu Bakr." She said, "How long

shall we enjoy this good order (i.e. Islamic religion) which Allah has

brought after the period of ignorance?" He said, "You will enjoy it as long

as your Imams keep on abiding by its rules and regulations." She asked,

"What are the Imams?" He said, "Were there not heads and chiefs of your

nation who used to order the people and they used to obey them?" She said,

"Yes." He said, "So they (i.e. the Imams) are those whom I meant."

Asalamu'alaikum

 

I saw Allah's Apostle (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) and there was none

with him but five slaves, two women and Abu Bakr (i.e. those were the only

converts to Islam then).

 

 

I guess , one was Mother Kadija ra . Other one was her female slave ??

Narrated 'Umar (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

 

The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "If anybody has to take an

oath, he should swear only by Allah." The people of Quraish used to swear

by their fathers, but the Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "Do

not swear by your fathers."

Merits of the Helpers in Madinah (Ansaar) - 22nd Muharram 1432 (28th December 2010)

 

Narrated 'Aisha (Radi-Allahu 'anha):

 

Abu Bakr had a slave who used to give him some of his earnings. Abu Bakr

used to eat from it. One day he brought something and Abu Bakr ate from it.

The slave said to him, "Do you know what this is?" Abu Bakr then enquired,

"What is it?" The slave said, "Once, in the pre-Islamic period of ignorance

I foretold somebody's future though I did not know this knowledge of

foretelling but I cheated him, and when he met me, he gave me something for

that service, and that is what you have eaten from." Then Abu Bakr put his

hand in his mouth and vomited whatever was present in his stomach.
