Narrated Abu Bakra: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) addressed the people saying, "Don't you know what is the day today?" They replied,"Allah and His Apostle know better." We thought that he might give that day another name. TheProphet said, "Isn't it the day of An-Nahr?" We replied, "Yes. O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." He then said, "Whattown is this? Isn't it the forbidden (Sacred) Town (Mecca)?" We replied, "Yes, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." Hethen said, "Your blood, your properties, your honors and your skins (i.e., bodies) are as sacred to oneanother like the sanctity of this day of yours in this month of yours in this town of yours. (Listen)Haven't I conveyed Allah's message to you?" We replied, "Yes" He said, "O Allah! Be witness (for it).So it is incumbent upon those who are present to convey it (this message of mine) to those who areabsent because the informed one might comprehend what I have said better than the present audiencewho will convey it to him.)" The narrator added: In fact, it was like that. The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "Beware!Do not renegade as disbelievers after me by striking (cutting) the necks of one another."

Narrated Al-Hasan: (Al-Ahnaf said:) I went out carrying my arms during the nights of the affliction (i.e. the war between`Ali and `Aisha) and Abu Bakra met me and asked, "Where are you going?" I replied, "I intend to helpthe cousin of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (i.e.,`Ali)." Abu Bakra said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, 'If two Muslims takeout their swords to fight each other, then both of them will be from amongst the people of the Hell-Fire.' It was said to the Prophet, 'It is alright for the killer but what about the killed one?' He replied,'The killed one had the intention to kill his opponent.'" (See Hadith No. 30, Vol. 1)Narrated Al-Ahnaf:Abu Bakra said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said (as above, 204).

Narrated Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman: The people used to ask Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) about the good but I used to ask him about the evil lest Ishould be overtaken by them. So I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We were living in ignorance and in an(extremely) worst atmosphere, then Allah brought to us this good (i.e., Islam); will there be any evilafter this good?" He said, "Yes." I said, 'Will there be any good after that evil?" He replied, "Yes, butit will be tainted (not pure.)'' I asked, "What will be its taint?" He replied, "(There will be) somepeople who will guide others not according to my tradition? You will approve of some of their deedsand disapprove of some others." I asked, "Will there be any evil after that good?" He replied, "Yes,(there will be) some people calling at the gates of the (Hell) Fire, and whoever will respond to theircall, will be thrown by them into the (Hell) Fire." I said, "O Allah s Apostle! Will you describe themto us?" He said, "They will be from our own people and will speak our language." I said, "What doyou order me to do if such a state should take place in my life?" He said, "Stick to the group ofMuslims and their Imam (ruler)." I said, "If there is neither a group of Muslims nor an Imam (ruler)?"He said, "Then turn away from all those sects even if you were to bite (eat) the roots of a tree till deathovertakes you while you are in that state."

Narrated Abu Al-Aswad: An army unit was being recruited from the people of Medina and my name was written among them.Then I met `Ikrima, and when I informed him about it, he discouraged me very strongly and said, "Ibn`Abbas told me that there were some Muslims who were with the pagans to increase their numberagainst Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (and the Muslim army) so arrows (from the Muslim army) would hit one ofthem and kill him or a Muslim would strike him (with his sword) and kill him. So Allah revealed:--'Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging themselves (by stayingamong the disbelievers).' (4.97)

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حُذَيْفَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَدِيثَيْنِ رَأَيْتُ أَحَدَهُمَا وَأَنَا أَنْتَظِرُ الآخَرَ حَدَّثَنَا ‏"‏ أَنَّ الأَمَانَةَ نَزَلَتْ فِي جَذْرِ قُلُوبِ الرِّجَالِ، ثُمَّ عَلِمُوا مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ، ثُمَّ عَلِمُوا مِنَ السُّنَّةِ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَنْ رَفْعِهَا قَالَ ‏"‏ يَنَامُ الرَّجُلُ النَّوْمَةَ فَتُقْبَضُ الأَمَانَةُ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ، فَيَظَلُّ أَثَرُهَا مِثْلَ أَثَرِ الْوَكْتِ، ثُمَّ يَنَامُ النَّوْمَةَ فَتُقْبَضُ فَيَبْقَى فِيهَا أَثَرُهَا مِثْلَ أَثَرِ الْمَجْلِ، كَجَمْرٍ دَحْرَجْتَهُ عَلَى رِجْلِكَ فَنَفِطَ، فَتَرَاهُ مُنْتَبِرًا وَلَيْسَ فِيهِ شَىْءٌ، وَيُصْبِحُ النَّاسُ يَتَبَايَعُونَ فَلاَ يَكَادُ أَحَدٌ يُؤَدِّي الأَمَانَةَ فَيُقَالُ إِنَّ فِي بَنِي فُلاَنٍ رَجُلاً أَمِينًا‏.‏ وَيُقَالُ لِلرَّجُلِ مَا أَعْقَلَهُ، وَمَا أَظْرَفَهُ، وَمَا أَجْلَدَهُ، وَمَا فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةِ خَرْدَلٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ، وَلَقَدْ أَتَى عَلَىَّ زَمَانٌ، وَلاَ أُبَالِي أَيُّكُمْ بَايَعْتُ، لَئِنْ كَانَ مُسْلِمًا رَدَّهُ عَلَىَّ الإِسْلاَمُ، وَإِنْ كَانَ نَصْرَانِيًّا رَدَّهُ عَلَىَّ سَاعِيهِ، وَأَمَّا الْيَوْمَ فَمَا كُنْتُ أُبَايِعُ إِلاَّ فُلاَنًا وَفُلاَنًا ‏"‏‏.‏

Narrated Hudhaifa: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) related to us, two prophetic narrations one of which I have seen fulfilled and I amwaiting for the fulfillment of the other. The Prophet (ﷺ) told us that the virtue of honesty descended in theroots of men's hearts (from Allah) and then they learned it from the Qur'an and then they learned itfrom the Sunna (the Prophet's traditions). The Prophet (ﷺ) further told us how that honesty will be takenaway: He said: "Man will go to sleep during which honesty will be taken away from his heart and onlyits trace will remain in his heart like the trace of a dark spot; then man will go to sleep, during whichhonesty will decrease further still, so that its trace will resemble the trace of blister as when an emberis dropped on one's foot which would make it swell, and one would see it swollen but there would benothing inside. People would be carrying out their trade but hardly will there be a trustworthy person.It will be said, 'in such-and-such tribe there is an honest man,' and later it will be said about some man,'What a wise, polite and strong man he is!' Though he will not have faith equal even to a mustard seedin his heart." No doubt, there came upon me a time when I did not mind dealing (bargaining) withanyone of you, for if he was a Muslim his Islam would compel him to pay me what is due to me, andif he was a Christian, the Muslim official would compel him to pay me what is due to me, but today Ido not deal except with such-and-such person.

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمٌ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الأَكْوَعِ، أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى الْحَجَّاجِ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ الأَكْوَعِ ارْتَدَدْتَ عَلَى عَقِبَيْكَ تَعَرَّبْتَ قَالَ لاَ وَلَكِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَذِنَ لِي فِي الْبَدْوِ‏.‏ وَعَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ لَمَّا قُتِلَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ خَرَجَ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ الأَكْوَعِ إِلَى الرَّبَذَةِ، وَتَزَوَّجَ هُنَاكَ امْرَأَةً وَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ أَوْلاَدًا، فَلَمْ يَزَلْ بِهَا حَتَّى قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمُوتَ بِلَيَالٍ، فَنَزَلَ الْمَدِينَةَ‏.‏

Narrated Salama bin Al-Akwa`: That he visited Al-Hajjaj (bin Yusuf). Al-Hajjaj said, "O son of Al-Akwa`! You have turned on yourheels (i.e., deserted Islam) by staying (in the desert) with the bedouins." Salama replied, "No, butAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) allowed me to stay with the bedouin in the desert." Narrated Yazid bin Abi Ubaid:When `Uthman bin `Affan was killed (martyred), Salama bin Al-Akwa` went out to a place called Ar-Rabadha and married there and begot children, and he stayed there till a few nights before his deathwhen he came to Medina.

Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "There will come a time when the best property of a Muslim will be sheep whichhe will take to the tops of mountains and the places of rainfall so as to flee with his religion from theafflictions.

حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ سَأَلُوا النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَتَّى أَحْفَوْهُ بِالْمَسْأَلَةِ، فَصَعِدَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ الْمِنْبَرَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ تَسْأَلُونِي عَنْ شَىْءٍ إِلاَّ بَيَّنْتُ لَكُمْ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْظُرُ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالاً، فَإِذَا كُلُّ رَجُلٍ رَأْسُهُ فِي ثَوْبِهِ يَبْكِي، فَأَنْشَأَ رَجُلٌ كَانَ إِذَا لاَحَى يُدْعَى إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ مَنْ أَبِي فَقَالَ ‏"‏ أَبُوكَ حُذَافَةُ ‏"‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ رَضِينَا بِاللَّهِ رَبًّا، وَبِالإِسْلاَمِ دِينًا، وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولاً، نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ سُوءِ الْفِتَنِ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ مَا رَأَيْتُ فِي الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ كَالْيَوْمِ قَطُّ، إِنَّهُ صُوِّرَتْ لِي الْجَنَّةُ وَالنَّارُ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُهُمَا دُونَ الْحَائِطِ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ يُذْكَرُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عِنْدَ هَذِهِ الآيَةِ ‏{‏يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَسْأَلُوا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ إِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْ‏}‏

Narrated Anas: The people started asking the Prophet (ﷺ) too many questions importunately. So one day he ascended thepulpit and said, "You will not ask me any question but I will explain it to you." I looked right and left,and behold, every man was covering his head with his garment and weeping. Then got up a man who,whenever quarreling with somebody, used to be accused of not being the son of his father. He said, "OAllah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Who is my father?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Your father is Hudhaifa." Then `Umar gotup and said, "We accept Allah as our Lord, Islam as our religion and Muhammad as our Apostle andwe seek refuge with Allah from the evil of afflictions." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, " I have never seen the goodand bad like on this day. No doubt, Paradise and Hell was displayed in front of me till I saw them infront of that wall," Qatada said: This Hadith used to be mentioned as an explanation of this Verse:-- 'Oyou who believe! Ask not questions about things which, if made plain to you, may cause you trouble.'(5.101)

وَقَالَ عَبَّاسٌ النَّرْسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، أَنَّ أَنَسًا، حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِهَذَا وَقَالَ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ لاَفًّا رَأْسَهُ فِي ثَوْبِهِ يَبْكِي‏.‏ وَقَالَ عَائِذًا بِاللَّهِ مِنْ سُوءِ الْفِتَنِ‏.‏ أَوْ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ سُوءِ الْفِتَنِ‏.‏

حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ قَامَ إِلَى جَنْبِ الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ الْفِتْنَةُ هَا هُنَا الْفِتْنَةُ هَا هُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ ‏"‏‏.‏ أَوْ قَالَ ‏"‏ قَرْنُ الشَّمْسِ ‏"‏‏.‏

Narrated Salim's father: The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up beside the pulpit (and pointed with his finger towards the East) and said,"Afflictions are there! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out," orsaid, "..the side of the sun.."

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهْوَ مُسْتَقْبِلٌ الْمَشْرِقَ يَقُولُ ‏ ‏ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْفِتْنَةَ هَا هُنَا مِنْ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ ‏‏‏.‏

Narrated Ibn `Umar: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) while he was facing the East, saying, "Verily! Afflictions are there, fromwhere the side of the head of Satan comes out."

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ ذَكَرَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي شَأْمِنَا، اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي يَمَنِنَا ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا وَفِي نَجْدِنَا‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي شَأْمِنَا، اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي يَمَنِنَا ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَفِي نَجْدِنَا فَأَظُنُّهُ قَالَ فِي الثَّالِثَةَ ‏"‏ هُنَاكَ الزَّلاَزِلُ وَالْفِتَنُ، وَبِهَا يَطْلُعُ قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ ‏"‏‏.‏

Narrated Ibn `Umar: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Sham! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings onour Yemen." The People said, "And also on our Najd." He said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings onour Sham (north)! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen." The people said, "O Allah'sApostle! And also on our Najd." I think the third time the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There (in Najd) is the placeof earthquakes and afflictions and from there comes out the side of the head of Satan."

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ الْوَاسِطِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ بَيَانٍ، عَنْ وَبَرَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَرَجَوْنَا أَنْ يُحَدِّثَنَا، حَدِيثًا حَسَنًا ـ قَالَ ـ فَبَادَرَنَا إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدِّثْنَا عَنِ الْقِتَالِ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ وَاللَّهُ يَقُولُ ‏{‏وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّى لاَ تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ‏}‏ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الْفِتْنَةُ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ، إِنَّمَا كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُقَاتِلُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، وَكَانَ الدُّخُولُ فِي دِينِهِمْ فِتْنَةً، وَلَيْسَ كَقِتَالِكُمْ عَلَى الْمُلْكِ‏.‏

Narrated Sa`id bin Jubair: `Abdullah bin `Umar came to us and we hoped that he would narrate to us a good Hadith. But beforewe asked him, a man got up and said to him, "O Abu `Abdur-Rahman! Narrate to us about the battlesduring the time of the afflictions, as Allah says:--'And fight them until there is no more afflictions (i.e. no more worshipping of others besides Allah).'"(2.193) Ibn `Umar said (to the man), "Do you know what is meant by afflictions? Let your motherbereave you! Muhammad used to fight against the pagans, for a Muslim was put to trial in his religion(The pagans will either kill him or chain him as a captive). His fighting was not like your fightingwhich is carried on for the sake of ruling."

حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، حَدَّثَنَا شَقِيقٌ، سَمِعْتُ حُذَيْفَةَ، يَقُولُ بَيْنَا نَحْنُ جُلُوسٌ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ قَالَ أَيُّكُمْ يَحْفَظُ قَوْلَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الْفِتْنَةِ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏ ‏ فِتْنَةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَمَالِهِ وَوَلَدِهِ وَجَارِهِ، تُكَفِّرُهَا الصَّلاَةُ وَالصَّدَقَةُ وَالأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْىُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ ‏‏‏.‏ قَالَ لَيْسَ عَنْ هَذَا أَسْأَلُكَ، وَلَكِنِ الَّتِي تَمُوجُ كَمَوْجِ الْبَحْرِ‏.‏ قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ مِنْهَا بَأْسٌ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، إِنَّ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهَا بَابًا مُغْلَقًا‏.‏ قَالَ عُمَرُ أَيُكْسَرُ الْبَابُ أَمْ يُفْتَحُ قَالَ بَلْ يُكْسَرُ‏.‏ قَالَ عُمَرُ إِذًا لاَ يُغْلَقَ أَبَدًا‏.‏ قُلْتُ أَجَلْ‏.‏ قُلْنَا لِحُذَيْفَةَ أَكَانَ عُمَرُ يَعْلَمُ الْبَابَ قَالَ نَعَمْ كَمَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ دُونَ غَدٍ لَيْلَةً، وَذَلِكَ أَنِّي حَدَّثْتُهُ حَدِيثًا لَيْسَ بِالأَغَالِيطِ‏.‏ فَهِبْنَا أَنْ نَسْأَلَهُ مَنِ الْبَابُ فَأَمَرْنَا مَسْرُوقًا فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ مَنِ الْبَابُ قَالَ عُمَرُ‏.‏

Narrated Shaqiq: I heard Hudhaifa saying, "While we were sitting with `Umar, he said, 'Who among you remembers thestatement of the Prophet (ﷺ) about the afflictions?' Hudhaifa said, "The affliction of a man in his family,his property, his children and his neighbors are expiated by his prayers, Zakat (and alms) andenjoining good and forbidding evil." `Umar said, "I do not ask you about these afflictions, but aboutthose afflictions which will move like the waves of the sea." Hudhaifa said, "Don't worry about it, Ochief of the believers, for there is a closed door between you and them." `Umar said, "Will that doorbe broken or opened?" I said, "No. it will be broken." `Umar said, "Then it will never be closed," Isaid, "Yes." We asked Hudhaifa, "Did `Umar know what that door meant?" He replied, "Yes, as Iknow that there will be night before tomorrow morning, that is because I narrated to him a truenarration free from errors." We dared not ask Hudhaifa as to whom the door represented so weordered Masruq to ask him what does the door stand for? He replied, "`Umar."

حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شَرِيكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الأَشْعَرِيِّ، قَالَ خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلَى حَائِطٍ مِنْ حَوَائِطِ الْمَدِينَةِ لِحَاجَتِهِ، وَخَرَجْتُ فِي إِثْرِهِ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ الْحَائِطَ جَلَسْتُ عَلَى بَابِهِ وَقُلْتُ لأَكُونَنَّ الْيَوْمَ بَوَّابَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَلَمْ يَأْمُرْنِي فَذَهَبَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقَضَى حَاجَتَهُ، وَجَلَسَ عَلَى قُفِّ الْبِئْرِ، فَكَشَفَ عَنْ سَاقَيْهِ وَدَلاَّهُمَا فِي الْبِئْرِ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَيْهِ لِيَدْخُلَ فَقُلْتُ كَمَا أَنْتَ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْذِنَ لَكَ، فَوَقَفَ فَجِئْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَيْكَ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ ائْذَنْ لَهُ، وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَدَخَلَ فَجَاءَ عَنْ يَمِينِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَكَشَفَ عَنْ سَاقَيْهِ وَدَلاَّهُمَا فِي الْبِئْرِ، فَجَاءَ عُمَرُ فَقُلْتُ كَمَا أَنْتَ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْذِنَ لَكَ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ ائْذَنْ لَهُ، وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَجَاءَ عَنْ يَسَارِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَكَشَفَ عَنْ سَاقَيْهِ فَدَلاَّهُمَا فِي الْبِئْرِ، فَامْتَلأَ الْقُفُّ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ مَجْلِسٌ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُثْمَانُ فَقُلْتُ كَمَا أَنْتَ حَتَّى أَسْتَأْذِنَ لَكَ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ ائْذَنْ لَهُ، وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ، مَعَهَا بَلاَءٌ يُصِيبُهُ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَدَخَلَ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ مَعَهُمْ مَجْلِسًا، فَتَحَوَّلَ حَتَّى جَاءَ مُقَابِلَهُمْ عَلَى شَفَةِ الْبِئْرِ، فَكَشَفَ عَنْ سَاقَيْهِ ثُمَّ دَلاَّهُمَا فِي الْبِئْرِ‏.‏ فَجَعَلْتُ أَتَمَنَّى أَخًا لِي وَأَدْعُو اللَّهَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ فَتَأَوَّلْتُ ذَلِكَ قُبُورَهُمُ اجْتَمَعَتْ هَا هُنَا وَانْفَرَدَ عُثْمَانُ‏.‏

Narrated Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari: The Prophet (ﷺ) went out to one of the gardens of Medina for some business and I went out to follow him.When he entered the garden, I sat at its gate and said to myself, "To day I will be the gatekeeper of theProphet though he has not ordered me." The Prophet (ﷺ) went and finished his need and went to sit on theconstructed edge of the well and uncovered his legs and hung them in the well. In the meantime AbuBakr came and asked permission to enter. I said (to him), "Wait till I get you permission." Abu Bakrwaited outside and I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Prophet! Abu Bakr asks your permissionto enter." He said, "Admit him, and give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise." So Abu Bakrentered and sat on the right side of the Prophet (ﷺ) and uncovered his legs and hung them in the well.Then `Umar came and I said (to him), "Wait till I get you permission." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Admit himand give him the glad tidings of entering Paradise." So `Umar entered and sat on the left side of theProphet and uncovered his legs and hung them in the well so that one side of the well became fullyoccupied and there remained no place for any-one to sit. Then `Uthman came and I said (to him),"Wait till I get permission for you." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Admit him and give him the glad tidings ofentering Paradise with a calamity which will befall him." When he entered, he could not find anyplace to sit with them so he went to the other edge of the well opposite them and uncovered his legsand hung them in the well. I wished that a brother of mine would come, so I invoked Allah for hiscoming. (Ibn Al-Musaiyab said, "I interpreted that (narration) as indicating their graves. The first threeare together and the grave of `Uthman is separate from theirs.")

حَدَّثَنِي بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ، قَالَ قِيلَ لأُسَامَةَ أَلاَ تُكَلِّمُ هَذَا‏.‏ قَالَ قَدْ كَلَّمْتُهُ مَا دُونَ أَنْ أَفْتَحَ بَابًا، أَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يَفْتَحُهُ، وَمَا أَنَا بِالَّذِي أَقُولُ لِرَجُلٍ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى رَجُلَيْنِ أَنْتَ خَيْرٌ‏.‏ بَعْدَ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ ‏ يُجَاءُ بِرَجُلٍ فَيُطْرَحُ فِي النَّارِ، فَيَطْحَنُ فِيهَا كَطَحْنِ الْحِمَارِ بِرَحَاهُ، فَيُطِيفُ بِهِ أَهْلُ النَّارِ فَيَقُولُونَ أَىْ فُلاَنُ أَلَسْتَ كُنْتَ تَأْمُرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ، وَتَنْهَى عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ فَيَقُولُ إِنِّي كُنْتُ آمُرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَلاَ أَفْعَلُهُ، وَأَنْهَى عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَأَفْعَلُهُ ‏‏‏.‏

Narrated Abu Wail: Someone said to Usama, "Will you not talk to this (Uthman)?" Usama said, "I talked to him (secretly)without being the first man to open an evil door. I will never tell a ruler who rules over two men ormore that he is good after I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, 'A man will be brought and put in Hell (Fire)and he will circumambulate (go around and round) in Hell (Fire) like a donkey of a (flour) grindingmill, and all the people of Hell (Fire) will gather around him and will say to him, O so-and-so! Didn'tyou use to order others for good and forbid them from evil?' That man will say, 'I used to order othersto do good but I myself never used to do it, and I used to forbid others from evil while I myself used todo evil.' "

Narrated Abu Bakra: During the battle of Al-Jamal, Allah benefited me with a Word (I heard from the Prophet). When theProphet heard the news that the people of the Persia had made the daughter of Khosrau their Queen(ruler), he said, "Never will succeed such a nation as makes a woman their ruler."

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَصِينٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْيَمَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ الأَسَدِيُّ، قَالَ لَمَّا سَارَ طَلْحَةُ وَالزُّبَيْرُ وَعَائِشَةُ إِلَى الْبَصْرَةِ بَعَثَ عَلِيٌّ عَمَّارَ بْنَ يَاسِرٍ وَحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ، فَقَدِمَا عَلَيْنَا الْكُوفَةَ فَصَعِدَا الْمِنْبَرَ، فَكَانَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ فَوْقَ الْمِنْبَرِ فِي أَعْلاَهُ، وَقَامَ عَمَّارٌ أَسْفَلَ مِنَ الْحَسَنِ، فَاجْتَمَعْنَا إِلَيْهِ فَسَمِعْتُ عَمَّارًا يَقُولُ إِنَّ عَائِشَةَ قَدْ سَارَتْ إِلَى الْبَصْرَةِ، وَوَاللَّهِ إِنَّهَا لَزَوْجَةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ، وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى ابْتَلاَكُمْ، لِيَعْلَمَ إِيَّاهُ تُطِيعُونَ أَمْ هِيَ‏.‏

Narrated Abu Maryam `Abdullah bin Ziyad Al-Aasadi: When Talha, AzZubair and `Aisha moved to Basra, `Ali sent `Ammar bin Yasir and Hasan bin `Aliwho came to us at Kufa and ascended the pulpit. Al-Hasan bin `Ali was at the top of the pulpit and`Ammar was below Al-Hasan. We all gathered before him. I heard `Ammar saying, "`Aisha hasmoved to Al-Busra. By Allah! She is the wife of your Prophet in this world and in the Hereafter. ButAllah has put you to test whether you obey Him (Allah) or her (`Aisha).

The first thing heard him saying "I seek reward from Allah for myself because ofbeing angry and scornful at the Quraish tribe. O you Arabs! You know very well that you were inmisery and were few in number and misguided, and that Allah has brought you out of all that withIslam and with Muhammad till He brought you to this state (of prosperity and happiness) which yousee now; and it is this worldly wealth and pleasures which has caused mischief to appear among you.The one who is in Sham (i.e., Marwan), by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain:and those who are among you, by Allah, are not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain; and thatone who is in Mecca (i.e., Ibn Az-Zubair) by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of worldlygain."

He will encamp in one of the salt areas neighboring Medina and there will appear to him aman who will be the best or one of the best of the people. He will say 'I testify that you are Ad-Dajjalwhose story Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) has told us.' Ad-Dajjal will say (to his audience), 'Look, if I kill this manand then give him life, will you have any doubt about my claim?' They will reply, 'No,' Then Ad-Dajjal will kill that man and then will make him alive. The man will say, 'By Allah, now I recognizeyou more than ever!' Ad-Dajjal will then try to kill him (again) but he will not be given the power todo so."
