Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to Abu Talha, "Seek one of your boys to serve me." Abu Talha mounted mebehind him (on his riding animal) and took me (to the Prophet (ﷺ) ). So I used to serve Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)whenever he dismounted (to stay somewhere). I used to hear him saying very often, "O Allah! I seekrefuge with You from, having worries sadness, helplessness, laziness, miserliness, cowardice, frombeing heavily in debt and from being overpowered by other persons unjustly." I kept on serving till we-returned from the battle of Khaibar. The Prophet (ﷺ) then brought Safiyya bint Huyai whom he had wonfrom the war booty. I saw him folding up a gown or a garment for her to sit on behind him (on his shecamel).When he reached As-Sahba', he prepared Hais and placed it on a dining sheet. Then he sentme to invite men, who (came and) ate; and that was his and Safiyya's wedding banquet. Then theProphet proceeded, and when he saw (noticed) the mountain of Uhud, he said, "This mountain lovesus, and we love it." When we approached Medina, he said, "O Allah! I make the area between its twomountains a sanctuary as Abraham has made Mecca a sanctuary. O Allah! Bless their Mudd and Sa(special kinds of measure).

Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: There was a Jew in Medina who used to lend me money up to the season of plucking dates. (Jabir hada piece of land which was on the way to Ruma). That year the land was not promising, so the paymentof the debt was delayed one year. The Jew came to me at the time of plucking, but gathered nothingfrom my land. I asked him to give me one year respite, but he refused. This news reached the Prophet (ﷺ)whereupon he said to his companions, "Let us go and ask the Jew for respite for Jabir." All of themcame to me in my garden, and the Prophet (ﷺ) started speaking to the Jew, but he Jew said, "O AbuQasim! I will not grant him respite." When the Prophet (ﷺ) saw the Jew's attitude, he stood up and walkedall around the garden and came again and talked to the Jew, but the Jew refused his request. I got upand brought some ripe fresh dates and put it in front of the Prophet. He ate and then said to me,"Where is your hut, O Jabir?" I informed him, and he said, "Spread out a bed for me in it." I spreadout a bed, and he entered and slept. When he woke up, I brought some dates to him again and he ate ofit and then got up and talked to the Jew again, but the Jew again refused his request. Then the Prophet (ﷺ)got up for the second time amidst the palm trees loaded with fresh dates, and said, "O Jabir! Pluckdates to repay your debt." The Jew remained with me while I was plucking the dates, till I paid him allhis right, yet there remained extra quantity of dates. So I went out and proceeded till I reached theProphet and informed him of the good news, whereupon he said, "I testify that I am Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)."
