Narrated ‘Aaishah (raa): I was menstruating when I reached Makkah; thus, I neither performed Tawaaf round the Ka`bah nor the Tawaaf between al-Safaa and al-Marwah. I informed Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) about it, and he replied, "Perform all the rites of Hajj like the other pilgrims, but do not perform Tawaaf round the Ka`bah till you get clean (from your menses)."
.

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺexplained the rulings pertaining to Hajj and ‘Umrah in words and action. The Companions (ras) transmitted all that to us, including the rulings related to women like menses.
In this hadeeth, ‘Aaishah (raa), the Mother of the Believers, reports that she was menstruating during the Farewell Hajj, which occurred in the 10th year of Hijrah. For that reason, she refrained from performing Tawaaf round the Ka’bah and between al-Safaa and al-Marwah and did not perform ‘Umrah or Hajj just like the rest of people. She raised her issue to the Prophet ﷺwho ordered her to perform all the rites of Hajj like the other pilgrims, like standing on the mountain of ‘Arafaat, Muzdalifah and spending the night in Minaa) and to refrain from performing Tawaaf round the Ka`bah till she gets clean from your menses.
According to a narration in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim, she (raa) said after completing Hajj, “O Messenger of Allah! All of you are returning with the Hajj and `Umrah, but I am returning after performing Hajj only." So, the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered `Abd al-Rahmaan bin Aboo Bakr (ra) to accompany her to Tan’eem and thus she performed the `Umrah after the Hajj.
From the benefits that can be concluded from this hadeeth is learning about how Islam eases the rulings of Hajj for menstruating women and allowing her to delay the Tawaaf until she becomes clean..

Narrated Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullah (ra): The Prophet (ﷺ) and his Companions assumed Ihraam for Hajj and none except the Prophet ﷺand Talhah had the Hady (sacrificial animal) with them. `Alee arrived from Yemen and had his Hady with him. `Alee said, "I have assumed Ihraam for what the Prophet (ﷺ) has done." The Prophet (ﷺ) ordered his Companions to perform the `Umrah with the lhraam which they had assumed, and after finishing Tawaaf (of Ka`bah, al-Safaa and al-Marwah) to cut short their hair, and to finish their lhraam except those who had Hady with them. They (the people) said, "How can we proceed to Minaa (for Hajj) after having sexual relations with our wives?" When that news reached the Prophet (ﷺ), he said, "If I had formerly known what I came to know lately, I would not have brought the Hady with me. Had there been no Hady with me, I would have finished the state of lhraam." `Aaishah (raa) got her menses, so she performed all the ceremonies of Hajj except Tawaaf of the Ka`bah, and when she got clean (from her menses), she performed Tawaaf of the Ka`bah. She said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! (All of you) are returning with the Hajj and `Umrah, but I am returning after performing Hajj only." So, the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered `Abd al-Rahmaan bin Aboo Bakr (ra) to accompany her to Tan`eem and thus she performed the `Umrah after the Hajj..

Commentary : There are three ways for performing Hajj: (1) Tamattu’: It is when the pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj, namely Shawwaal, Dhu al-Qa’dah, and Dhu al-Hijjah. And after completing the ‘Umrah, he exits his Ihraam and then enters the Ihraam again in the same year to perform Hajj. (2) Al-Qiraan: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform both ‘Umrah and Hajj together. (3) Al-Ifraad: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform Hajj only.
In this hadeeth, Jaabir ib ‘Abdullah (ra) reports that the Prophet ﷺand his Companions assumed Ihraam for Hajj in the Farewell Hajj, which was in the 10th year of Hijrah. None of them had Hady with him except the Prophet ﷺand Talhah ibn ‘Ubaydillah (ra). The Hady is the name of the animals that pilgrims bring along with them to slaughter in the Haram as sacrificial animals, which include camels, cows, sheep and goats.
At that time, ‘Alee ibn Abee Taalib (ra) was in Yemen because the Prophet ﷺsent him to serve there as a judge and to collect the zakat. So, he travelled to Makkah to perform Hajj with the Prophet ﷺ, and he brought with him Hady. He (ra) assumed Ihraam on his way to Makkah so the Prophet ﷺasked him about the intention of his Ihraam. His answer was that he assumed Ihraam with an intention as that of the Prophet ﷺ. It happened that the Prophet ﷺwas one of the pilgrims who had Hady with them; thus, he entered the Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah and Hajj together. The Prophet ﷺordered those who did not bring along Hady with them to exit Ihraam after completing the ‘Umrah and enter a new Ihraam for Hajj on the 8th of Dhu al-Hijjah.
This made some of the Companions (ras) feel uneasy that they exit Ihraam while the Prophet ﷺkeep his Ihraam, and they wondered how it is possible to exit Ihraam and then assume Ihraam for Hajj on the Day of Tarwiyah! Upon knowing this, the Prophet ﷺsaid to them: “Had there been no Hady with me, I would have finished the state of lhraam” i.e., If I came to know about this from the beginning, I would have not brought with me the Hady so I could exit Ihraam after ‘Umrah and then enter a new Ihraam for Hajj. By this, the Prophet ﷺexplained to them that if he did not have the Hady, he would have done the same.
Upon entering Makkah, ‘Aaishah (raa) menstruated, and so she followed the instructions of the Prophet ﷺto perform the rites of Hajj except the Tawaaf round the Ka’bah. And after she became clean from menses, she performed Tawaaf round the Ka’bah. However, as the Muslims are preparing to depart Makkah, she said to the Prophet ﷺ: “(All of you) are returning with the Hajj and `Umrah, but I am returning after performing Hajj only” So, the Prophet ﷺordered her brother, `Abd al-Rahmaan bin Aboo Bakr (ra), to accompany her to Tan`eem, which is situated about 6 km from Makkah and the closest point to enter Ihraam for those who are in Makkah – although people may enter Ihraam from any of the designated places.
This hadeeth highlights the permissibility of performing ‘Umrah in the months of Hajj.
From the benefits that can be concluded from this hadeeth is learning about how Islam eases the rulings of Hajj for menstruating women and allowing her to delay the Tawaaf until she becomes clean. And it shows the mercy and compassion of the Prophet ﷺtowards women and his kind treatment with them.
The hadeeth shows that if a person is in Makkah and wants to enter Ihraam, he should go to the point of Ihraam outside Makkah and enter Ihraam for ‘Umrah from there.
It also shows that a woman may not travel except with one of her Mahram men..

Narrated Hafsah: 'We used to forbid the ‘Awaatiq (young women) to go out for the two `Eid prayers. A woman came and stayed at the palace of Banee Khalaf, and she narrated about her sister whose husband took part in twelve battles along with the Prophet (ﷺ) and her sister was with her husband in six (out of these twelve). She (the woman's sister) said, "We used to treat the wounded, look after the patients and once I asked the Prophet (ﷺ), 'Is there any harm for any of us to stay at home if she does not have a veil?' He said, 'She should cover herself with the veil of her female companion and should participate in the good deeds and in the religious gathering of the Muslims.' When Umm `Atiyyah (raa) came, I asked her whether she had heard it from the Prophet (ﷺ). She replied, "Yes. May my father be sacrificed for him (the Prophet)! (Whenever she mentioned the Prophet (ﷺ) she used to say, 'May my father be sacrificed for him) I have heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, 'The ‘Awaatiq and the girls who stay often screened or the ‘Awaatiq who often stay screened and the menstruating women should come out and participate in the good deeds as well as the religious gathering of the believers but the menstruating women should keep away from the Musallaa (praying place).' " Hafsah (raa) asked Umm `Atiyyah surprisingly, "Do you say the menstruating women?" She replied, "Does not a menstruating woman attend `Arafaat (Hajj) and such and such (other deeds)?".

Commentary : Islam has honoured women and made them a natural partner to men. It has defined their rights and responsibilities, and the rulings pertaining to them like menses, post-partum blooding, seclusion with the opposite gender, attending public gatherings, and so on.
In this hadeeth, Hafsah bintSeereen mentions that they used to forbid young women from attending the two ‘Eid prayers. The Arabic word used in the narration to describe the young women is ‘Awaatiq (lit. freed). It means females who have just reached puberty but are not yet married and still live at their family’s house. The relevance of the name to their condition is that at such age she can depend on herself, and her parent no longer needs to serve her and fulfil her needs outside the house. Another possible meaning is that it refers to the young girl that is so loved by her parents. Hafsah further says that a woman came to al-Basrah and stayed at the palace of Banee Khalaf, the grandfather of Talhah al-Talhaat, and she narrated about her sister (i.e., Umm Atiyyah) whose husband took part in twelve battles along with the Prophet (ﷺ), and her sister was with her husband in six out of these twelve. Then she mentioned that her sister said that they used to treat the wounded, look after the patients. And one time, she asked the Prophet ﷺif it is sinful for a woman to stay at home, and does not attend these gatherings, because she does not have a veil to wear when she goes out. The Prophet ﷺtold her that in this case, she should borrow a veil from her friend to cover herself and participate in the good deeds and in the religious gathering of the Muslims like the ‘Eid prayer.
Hafsah then mentioned that people inquired from Umm ‘Atiyyah (raa) about the hadeeth she related so she confirmed that she heard it directly from the Prophet ﷺand said: “May my father be sacrificed for him” and added that he ﷺstated that let out the ‘Awaatiq (plural of ‘Aatiq) which is the young girl who reached puberty or is about to reach puberty or in an age suitable for marriage or the one who is highly valued by her parents or who is freed from fulfilling the needs of the family outside the house. It appears that they used to forbid these young girls from leaving the house because of the corruption that was present at their time. The Companions (ras) however held the view that the ruling that was practised during the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺshould not change despite all that.
The Prophet ﷺordered that even unmarried virgin girls who stay in the house far from the eyes of people should go out to attend the ‘Eid prayer. The order to attend the religious gatherings of Muslims included menstruating women, but they have to keep away from the place where the ‘Eid prayer is established. Upon hearing this, Umm ‘Atiyyah was surprised that menstruating women should attend too! The Prophet ﷺexplained to her that she can and reminded that menstruating women attend ‘Arafaat and the other rites of Hajj.
From the benefits that can be concluded from this hadeeth is learning that menstruating women can attend all the rites of Hajj except Tawaaf.
The hadeeth shows that woman can treat the wounded, look after the patients in times of war.
It shows us that the Companions (ras) used to correct the misconceptions and mistakes of the Taab’ieen..

1653

Narrated ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Rufay’: I asked Anas ibn Maalik (ra), "Tell me what you remember from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (regarding these questions): Where did he offer the Thuhr and `Asr prayers on the day of Tarwiyah (8th day of Dhoo al- Hijjah)?" He replied: "He (ﷺ) offered these prayers at Minaa." I asked, "Where did he offer the `Asr prayer on the day of Nafr (i.e., departure from Mina on the 12th or 13th of Dhu al-Hijjah)?" He replied, "At Al- Abtah," and then added, "You should do as your chiefs do.".

Commentary : Hajj is an act of worship that cannot be sanctioned except on the basis of textual evidence from the Quran or the Sunnah to that effect. The Prophet ﷺclarified the rulings pertaining to Hajj and explained that which is allowed and that which is not, and which actions can be delayed or in advance, and what can be open and flexible. The Companions (ras) transmitted all that to the next generation who in their turn transmitted to the people after them and so on. They even offered advice to people about what to do when some rulers make changes to the time and place of certain actions, which are considered flexible in such sense.
In this hadeeth, the Taabi’ee ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Rufay’ reports that he asked Anas ibn Maalik (ra) to narrate to him from the Prophet ﷺsomething he understood and comprehended. He asked him about the place where the Prophet ﷺprayed Thuhr and ‘Asr on the 8th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, a.k.a. the Day of Tarwiyah which is named as such because pilgrims drink and take their water supplied on that day preparing for standing at ‘Arafah. Anas ibn Maalik (ra) replied that he ﷺoffered the prayers in Minaa, which is a valley surrounded by mountains, located in the east of Makkah between Makkah and ‘Arafah and is about 6 km from the Sacred Mosque. It is the place where the rite of throwing the stones in Hajj.
Then, he asked about the place where the Prophet ﷺprayed in the Day of Nafr, which is the day on which pilgrims return from Minaa to Makkah, which happens on the 3rd day of Tashreed. Anas ibn Maalik (ra) replied that he prayed in al-Abtah, alias al-Muhassib, a place that is known for its small pebbles, and is originally the valley of Makkah, in the south of the Haram, in front of the mountain of Thawr, which is a part of Minaa.
Then, Anas ibn Maalik (ra) ordered him to do like his rulers do and pray where they pray, which indicates that the rulers at that time did not pray Thuhr at a particular place and that it is an open matter so people can pray where they like and leave whenever they want. This also indicates that what he (ra) reported from the Prophet ﷺis not considered one of the rites of Hajj that pilgrims are obliged to do, and it is said that it is one of the rites.
The reason he (ra) ordered him not to oppose the rulers in order to avoid division and possible corruption..

1654

Narrated ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Rufay’: I went to Minaa on the Day of Tarwiyah, so I met Anas ibn Maalik (ra) mounting his donkey. I asked him about the place where the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed Thuhr on this day. He said, look where your rulers pray and pray there for it is better..

Commentary : The Hajj is an act of worship that cannot be sanctioned except on the basis of textual evidence from the Quran or the Sunnah to that effect. The Prophet ﷺclarified the rulings pertaining to Hajj and explained that which is allowed and that which is not, and which actions can be delayed or in advance, and what can be open and flexible. The Companions (ras) transmitted all that to the next generation who in their turn transmitted to the people after them and so on. They even offered advice to people about what to do when some rulers make changes to the time and place of certain actions, which are considered flexible in such sense.
In this hadeeth, the Taabi’ee ‘Abd al-‘Azeez ibn Rufay’ reports that he went to Minaa on the Day of Tarwiyah, which is the 8th of Thoo al-Hijjah. On his way to Minaa, he met Anas ibn Maalik (ra) riding his donkey and heading also to Minaa. He asked him about the place where the Prophet ﷺprayed on the 8th of Thoo al-Hijjah, so he answered him that he should pray where his rulers pray. His statement was to show that it is permissible to pray it anywhere and that it is an open matter so people can pray in any place that is more convenient to them. While it is better and more recommended to pray where the Prophet ﷺoffered the Thuhr and ‘Asr prayers, but he (ra) wanted to show that it is not obligatory..

1655

Narrated ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (ra): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) offered a two-units prayer at Minaa. Abu Bakr, `Umar, and `Uthmaan (ras), (during the early years of his caliphate) followed the same practice..

1656

Narrated Haaritha ibn Wahb al-Khuzaa’ee (ra): The Prophet (ﷺ) led us in a two-units prayer at Minaa, although our number was more than ever and we were in better security than ever..

1657

Narrated ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (ra): I offered two units’ prayer with the Prophet ﷺ (at Minaa), and similarly with Aboo Bakr and with `Umar (ras), and then you differed in opinions. I wish that I would be lucky enough to have two of the four units accepted (by Allah)..

Commentary : The Hajj has its own rulings and some of which are so unique that it gives pilgrims concessions in certain acts of worship like shortening the prayer, and it lifts hardship by allowing certain rites to be shifted to perform them before other rites, and so on.
‘Abdullah bin Mas’ood (ra) reports that he was with the Prophet ﷺin the Farewell Hajj and that he prayed behind him in Minaa the four-units prayers, namely Thuhr, ‘Asr, and ‘Ishaa. He (ra) adds that he ﷺshortened them and offered each one of them as a two units prayer. Minaa is a valley surrounded by mountains, located in the east of Makkah on the road between Makkah and Mount of ‘Arafah, about 6 km away from the Sacred Mosque, and it is the site where the rite of throwing stones is performed. He continued to explain that he prayed behind Abu Bakr and ‘Umar (ras) and they did the same i.e., they shortened the four-units prayers.
His statement: "Then you differed in opinions" refers to what ‘Uthmaan ibn ‘Afaan (ra) did in the second half of his ruling, when he stopped shortening the four-units prayers in Minaa.
It is said that ‘Uthmaan (ra) opted for offering the four-units prayers without shortening them because he decided to live in the Taaif. By this, he considered him a resident hence cannot benefit from the concession of shortening prayers as he held the view that the concession of shortening prayers in Minaa is only for the travelling pilgrims. It is also said that he did not take the concession and insisted on offering the four units prayers without shortening them for the public good i.e., at that time he noticed that the number of Muslims had dramatically increased after the large groups of people entering Islam and many of the pilgrims were new Muslims who did not know well the rulings and laws of Islam. He feared that the ignorant ones among them would think that the four units prayers consist of two units.
As for the statement of Ibn Mas’ood (ra) said: "Wish that I would be lucky enough to have two of the four units accepted (by Allah)", it is intended to mean that ‘Uthmaan (ra) should have shortened the prayer and followed the way of Aboo Bakr and ‘Umar (ras) because it agrees with the practice of the Prophet ﷺ. While Ibn Mas’ood, (ra) held the view that it is better to shorten the prayer, he held the view that it is permissible not offer the four units prayer without shortening it in Minaa. This is evident because he prayed behind ‘Uthmaan (ras) and if he held the view that shortening the prayer is obligatory, he would have refused to offer the four units prayer behind ‘Uthaman without shortening it.
From the benefits that can be concluded from this hadeeth is learning about the eagerness and insistence of the Companions (ras) to follow the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
This hadeeth shows that little work that corresponds to the Sunnah is more likely to be accepted. .

1684

Narrated 'Amr ibn Maymoon: I saw `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) offering the Fajr prayer at Jam'; then he got up and said, "The polytheists did not use to depart (from Jam') till the sun had risen, and they used to say, 'Let the sun to shine on Thabeer (a mountain).' However, the Prophet ﷺ contradicted them and departed from Jam' before sunrise."
.

Commentary : Opposing the polytheists is a religious requirement, which the Prophet ﷺused to emphasize and encourage. All the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) followed his guidance concerning that.
In this hadeeth, the Taabi'ee, 'Amr ibn Maymoon, reports that he witnessed 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) while he was in Hajj offering the Fajr prayer at al-Muzdalifah. Al-Muzdalifah is the name for a place where the pilgrims encamp for the night after departing from 'Arafaat and spend the night of the tenth of Thoo al-Hijjah there. The site contains the al-Mash'ar al-Haraam, and it is about 12 km away from 'Arafah and is next to the monument of Minaa. Al-Muzdalifah is also known as Jam' (combining) because two prayers, Maghrib and 'Ishaa, are combined therein. It is said that it has been given that name due to the action of its [temporary] residents because they congregate therein and they "Yazdalifoon" (get closer) to their Lord; meaning, they draw closer to Him by remaining therein [for His sake]. It was also said that the reason to name it as thus was something else.
Then, 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) clarified to the people that the polytheists did not use to march out of al-Muzalifah to Minaa until the sunrise and they would utter, "Brighten up, Thabeer!" Thabeer is a mountain in al-Muzdalifah toward the left of the path going to Minaa and towards the right path going to 'Arafaat. The meaning of this utterance: Let the sun rise upon you, O Thabeer! So that we can pour out from Muzdalifah to Minaa. Thus, the Prophet ﷺopposed them concerning this practice and he departed from 'Arafaat when the morning had tuned golden and the daylight had appeared, however, before the sunrise.
This hadeeth denotes the time to move out of Muzdalifah and march on to Minaa which is during the golden hour of the morning [before the sunrise]..

1685

Narrated Ibn' Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet ﷺ made Al-Fadl ride behind him, and Al-Fadl informed that he ﷺ kept on reciting Talbiyah till he did the rite of throwing of the pebbles.
.

Commentary : Reciting the 'Talbiyah' is among the manifested rites of Hajj, which should be pronounced loudly as a demonstration of such a significant rite. It contains the announcement of Tawheed being reserved for Allah Only, the Mighty and Majestic. And when a Muslim recites it, then the plants and unanimated objects would recite it along with him.
In this hadeeth, 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Prophet ﷺmade al-Fadl ibn al-‘Abbaas ride behind him on the same animal. This happened after he had offered the Fajr prayer at Muzdalifah on the morning of the Day of Sacrifice (The Day of Nahr), the tenth day of Thoo al-Hijjah. He remained there until the morning turned golden, before the sunrise, then he mounted his ride heading towards Minaa. Al-Fadl ibn al-‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) informed him that the Messenger ﷺkept on reciting Labbayka until he performed the stoning rite of Jamarah al-‘Aqabah, this is a big stone pillar in the western side of Minaa adjacent to Makkah. The wording of the Talbiyah is: Labbayka, Allahumma Labbayka. Labbayka Laa Shareeka Laka Labbayka. Innal Hamda wan Ni’matah Laka wal Mulk. Laa Shareek Lak. [At Your service, O Allah, I am at Your service. I am at Your service, You have no partner, I am at Your service. Verily, all praises and bounties belong to You and also the dominion, You have no partner]. The pronouncement of the Talbiyah starts from the time of adorning [and making intention of] the Ihraam.
This hadeeth demonstrates the humbleness of the Prophet ﷺ and shows that it is permissible for two people to mount an animal at the same time if it is able to take that load..

1688

Narrated Aboo Jamrah: I asked Ibn `Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) about Hajj-at-Tamattu`. He ordered me to perform it. I asked him about the Hady (sacrificial animal of pilgrims). He said, "You have to slaughter a camel, a cow or a sheep, or you may share the Hady with the others." It seemed that some people disliked it (Hajj-at-Tamattu`). I slept and dreamt as if a person was announcing: "Hajj Mabroor and accepted Mut'ah (Hajj-at-Tamattu`)." I went to Ibn `Abbaas and narrated it to him. He said, "Allah is Greater. (That was) the tradition of Aboo Al-Qaasim (i.e.the Prophetﷺ).
According to another narration the call in the dream was. "An accepted `Umrah and Hajj-Mabroor."
.

1689

Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): Allah's Messenger ﷺ saw a man driving his Badanah (sacrificial camel). He said, "Ride on it." The man said, "It is a Badanah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Ride on it." He (the man) said, "It is a Badanah." The Prophet said, "Ride on it." Furthermore, on the second or the third time he (the Prophet ﷺ ) added, "Woe to you."
.

Commentary : Allah Almighty sent His Prophet, Muhammad ﷺas a mercy for the world and made adherence to his commands and refraining from all that which he prohibited a means of salvation in this world and the hereafter. His method was to make the acts of worship and people's lives easy to handle.
In this hadeeth, Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah ﷺsaw a man walking on his feet and he was driving a "badanah" which he took to the Sacred House in order to sacrifice and get closer thereby to Allah. A Badanah is an animal, especially from the camels. It was said: "Budun" [plural of badanah] can be used for both the camels and cows. The Messenger of Allah ﷺordered him to ride it so he can rest from the tiredness he got from the hardship of walking. The man informed him that the animal was a badanah that he had driven to the Ka'bah and to express that he should not ride it. However, the Prophet ﷺtold him the second or the third time, "Ride on it, woe unto you! The real meaning of the Arabic word Wayl (lit. Woe] severe punishment; however, that is not what is meant here. The Prophet ﷺintended to be verbally harsh on him so that he rides it.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to ride the Hady, and it encourages us to hasten to uphold the commandments of Allah and His Messenger, and it contains a reprimand and rebuke against the one who does not hasten towards adhering them..

1691

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): During the last Hajj of Allah's Messenger ﷺ, he performed `Umrah and Hajj together in one Ihraam [Hajj al-Tamattu']. He ﷺdrove his Hady along with him from Thoo al-Hulayfah. Allah's Messenger ﷺ started by assuming Ihraam for `Umrah and then for Hajj. And the people, too, performed the `Umrah and then Hajj along with the Prophet ﷺ. Some of them brought the Hady and drove it along with them, while the others did not. So, when the Prophet ﷺ arrived at Makkah, he said to the people, "Whoever among you has driven the Hady, should not finish his Ihraam till he completes his Hajj. And whoever among you has not (driven) the Hady with him, should perform Tawaaf of the Ka'bah and the Tawaaf between Al-Safaa and Al-Marwah, then cut short his hair and finish his Ihraam. And he should later assume Ihraam for Hajj, but he must offer a Hady (sacrifice); if anyone cannot afford a Hady, he should fast for three days during the Hajj and seven days when he returns home. The Prophet ﷺ performed Tawaaf of the Ka'bah on his arrival (at Makkah); he touched the (Black Stone) corner first of all, and then walked with a high pace during the first three rounds of Tawaaf around the Ka'bah, and during the last four rounds, he walked with normal pace. After finishing Tawaaf around the Ka'bah, he offered a two units prayer at the Maqaam of Ibraaheem, and after finishing the prayer he went to Al-Safaa and Al-Marwah and walked seven rounds between them and did not do any deed forbidden because of Ihraam, till he finished all the ceremonies of his Hajj and sacrificed his Hady on the Day of Nahr (10th day of Thoo al-Hijjah). He then hastened onwards (to Makkah) and performed Tawaaf of the Ka'bah and then everything that was forbidden because of Ihraam became permissible. Those who took and drove the Hady with them did the same as Allah's Messenger ﷺ.
Narrated 'Urwah: 'Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) told him that the Prophet ﷺ did Hajj al-Tamattu' and so did the people who were with him too, just like the narration that Saalim reported from Ibn' Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet ﷺ.
.

Commentary : The Hajj is the fifth pillar among the pillars of Islam, and the Prophet ﷺhas explained all the rites and rituals of Hajj both verbally and practically. The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted them to us as they learned them from the Prophet ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) relates a part of the guidance of the Prophet ﷺin the Farewell Hajj, which happened in the tenth year of the Hijrah. He explains that the Messenger of Allah ﷺperformed Hajj al-Tamattu' during the Farewell Hajj by incorporating the 'Umrah into the Hajj, while it is well known that the Messenger of Allah ﷺperformed Hajj al-Qiraan, that is, that he combined the Hajj and 'Umrah within one Ihraam. Thus, based on that, the word Tamattu' used here is the linguistic meaning of Tamattu'. The meaning of it is that the Prophet ﷺinitially entered the Ihraam for Hajj only but afterwards, he intended to perform 'Umrah too; thus, he ﷺbecame the performer of the Qiraan-type of Hajj. The Qiraan in this case entails the linguistic meaning of Tamattu' (i.e. enjoying benefit) and the technical meaning in religion because he is incorporating 'Umrah into the actions of Hajj in the sense that he enjoyed the unison of the Meeqaat [the boundary from which the Ihraam is adorned for pilgrimage], Ihraam and rituals. This explicitly indicates that the Prophet ﷺwas a Qaarin and that the meaning of Tamattu' in this context is Qiraan. The proof on this is his statement: "Anyone among you who has driven the sacrificial animal, then he is not allowed to do anything that has been prohibited for him [due to being in the state of Ihraam] until he completes his Hajj,". He ﷺsaid it while he ﷺwas among those who had driven the sacrificial animals to the Haram of Makkah.
Ibn' Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) informs that the Prophet ﷺdrove with him the Hady – a name given to the animal that is presented and sacrificed at the Haram of Makkah among the camels, cows, sheep and goats – from Thoo al-Hulayfah. Altogether, there were sixty-four sacrificial animals. Thoo al-Hulayfah is the boundary [Meeqaat] of the people of Al-Madeenah and also those outsiders who are in transit therefrom. Now, the place is known as Aabaar' Alee, a well-known location right at the onset of the road of Al-Madeenah that takes one to Makkah. The distance between it and Al-Madeenah is about 13 km and between it and Makkah is approximately 408 km, and it is the farthest of all the boundaries from Makkah.
The statement of Ibn' Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), "Allah’s Messenger ﷺ started by assuming Ihraam for `Umrah and then for Hajj” is understood to mean reciting Talbiyah during the Ihraam. It is reported on the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, “Labbayka for the ‘Umrah and Hajj.” [Saheeh Muslim]. This however does not mean that he assumed the Ihraam for ‘Umrah first, then he entered the Ihraam for ‘Umrah later.
His statement, “And the people, too, performed the `Umrah and then Hajj along with the Prophet ﷺ” means, later on, many or most of them had assumed the state of Ihraam for Hajj only at first, then they changed that intention by intending the ‘Umrah instead and then assumed Ihraam separately for Hajj. These people were the pilgrims who did not drive Hady along with them.
Hence, when the Prophet ﷺentered Makkah, he ﷺproclaimed to the people that whoever among them has driven the sacrificial animal with him, then he cannot enjoy any part of what is prohibited for him among the sanctions of Ihraam, thus, he remains in his full Ihraam until he completes his Hajj. That is due to the Statement of Allah, {Do not shave your heads until the sacrificial animal reaches its destination of slaughter.} [Al-Baqarah, 2:196]. As for those who have not driven the sacrificial animal, they need to perform Tawaaf as part of the rites of the ‘Umrah and perform the ritual walking between the Safaa and al-Marwah and then cut their hair short to exit from the Ihraam thereby. Thereupon, it will be permissible for them to do whatever was previously prohibited in the state of Ihraam, such as using fragrances, wearing normal clothes [for men], intimately approaching wives, hunting and so on. The Prophet ﷺordered them to shorten their hair rather than to shave it all off, whereas, shaving the head is better, so that some hair is left to shave it all off when exiting their Ihraam for the Hajj.
The Prophet’s statement, “and should later assume Ihraam for Hajj” means that they should assume Ihraam for Hajj on the Day of Quenching Thirst on the eighth day of Thoo al-Hijjah. It does not mean that they should assume Ihraam for Hajj straight after exiting the Ihraam of ‘Umrah.
As for the one who does not find a sacrificial animal, or its value or its value has increased above the value of the similar animal or that its owner does not want to sell it, then in that instance, let him fast for three days in the Hajj after assuming its Ihraam and for seven days after returning to his family in his city or to the place where he resides.
Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) informs that the Messenger of Allah ﷺperformed the Tawaaf when he came to Makkah, known as the Circumambulation of Arrival (Tawaaf al-Qudoom) and performed the Istilaam of the Rukn right in the beginning, that is, the Black Stone. Istilaam means to touch the stone and kiss it. That happened straight as he arrived before doing anything else. Then, he ﷺwalked fast and hastened in the first three rounds and walked normally in the last four rounds of Tawaaf. After completing the Tawaaf, he ﷺoffered a two-units prayer at the standing place (Maqaam) of Ibraaheem (peace be upon him). After completing the prayer, he moved from his place and headed to perform the ritual walking between the Safaa and al-Marwah seven times, starting his first circuit from the Safaa and finishing at the Marwah. The second circuit is the opposite of the first one, which goes from the Marwah to the Safaa. The third circuit is like the first one, and thus until the circuit is complete during the seventh circuit.
The Prophet ﷺremained in the state of Ihraam until he completed his Hajj. He sacrificed the animal on the day of ‘Eid, and he performed the Tawaaf of Ifaadah, that is because he drove the sacrificial animal with him; otherwise, he ﷺwould have exited from the Ihraam of ‘Umrah just as he ordered his Companions to do. Everyone who drove their sacrificial animals did exactly as the Prophet ﷺdid, i.e. they did not temporarily cancel their Ihraam of Hajj by completing the ‘Umrah and then wait to Hajj time. As a result, the Prophet ﷺalongside some other people performed Qiraan, while the other group performed Tamattu’ instead.
One of the benefits of this hadeeth as well is that it reveals the legality of performing Hajj in the forms of either Qiraan or Tamattu’ and intending Tamattu’ for the one who has performed Hajj in the Qiraan form or Ifraad form.
It also reveals the legality of walking fast in the three first circuits of the Tawaaf aaround the Ka’bah..

Narrated al-Maysoor ibn Makhramah and Marwaan: The Prophet ﷺ set out from Al-Madeenah with over one thousand of his Companions (at the time of the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah) and when they reached Thoo al-Hulayfah, the Prophet ﷺ garlanded his Hady and marked it and assumed Ihraam for `Umrah.
.

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺexplained the rulings pertaining to Hajj and ‘Umrah and their recommended acts and etiquettes both verbally and practically. And the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted all that they heard and witnessed from him ﷺconcerning this.
In this hadeeth, al-Miswar ibn Makhramah (may Allah be pleased with him) and the Taabi’ee, Marwaan ibn al-Hakam report that the Prophet ﷺleft Al-Madeenah during the year of al-Hudaibiyyah – the sixth year of the Hijrah – intending to perform ‘Umrah and not to fight. He ﷺwas accompanied by over ten hundred [, i.e. over a thousand] of his Companions. The Arabic word Bid’ used in the hadeeth to indicate their number encompasses the number from three to nine. [Hence, here, the word Bid’ (over) could mean anywhere between thirteen hundred to nineteen hundred]. Jaabir (may Allah be pleased with him)mentioned that they were a thousand and three hundred (thirteen hundred) in number; and the other time, he stated that they were fourteen hundred; and again, the third time, he stated that they were fifteen hundred [Saheeh Al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim]. When they reached Thoo al-Hulayfah - now, it is known as Aabaar ‘Alee, a well-known location right at the onset of the road of Al-Madeenah that takes one to Makkah. The distance between it and Al-Madeenah is about 13 km and between it and Makkah is approximately 408 km, it is the farthest of all the boundaries from Makkah. It is the boundary [Meeqaat] of the people of Al-Madeenah and those who go for Hajj or ‘Umrah and pass by Al-Madeenah. The Prophet ﷺgarlanded the sacrificial animal and marked it [for identification]. The Arabic root word Taqleed [used in the hadeeth]: means to place garlands on the necks of the sacrificial animals so they are identified from others. Those garlands could be made from [a strip of] leather or socks and so on. The Arabic word Ish’aar [also used in the hadeeth]: means that the hump [or the back] of the big animal is slightly stabbed with a knife or any other [sharp] object until its blood flows. The benefit of performing Ish’aar: is to notify that it has now become a sacrificial animal, thus the poor who need it [its meat] may follow it and if it is intermixed with other animals, it can be distinguished or if it is lost, it can be located and besides this. It also indicates the veneration of the religious rites and encouragement to others to adopt them.
On this occasion, the Prophet ﷺhad assumed the Ihraam for ‘Umrah, however, the polytheists prevented him from performing it. Then, the treaty of al-Hudaybiyyah took place and the Prophet ﷺsettled this ‘Umrah of his in the following year (the seventh year of the Hijrah), hence, it was named as ‘Umrah al-Qadaa’. In Saheeh al-Bukhaaree, Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that “The Prophet ﷺwas blockaded [from advancing further], hence he shaved his head, had sexual intercourse with his wives, sacrificed the sacrificial animals, and then he performed the ‘Umrah in the following year.”
This hadeeth highlights the legality of garlanding the sacrificial animals and marking them, for the purpose of identification.
It shows that it is permissible to assume Ihraam for the ‘Umrah alone..

Narrated `Amrah bint `Abd al-Rahmaan had told him, “Ziaad ibn Aboo Sufyaan wrote to `’Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that `Abdullah ibn `Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) had stated, ‘Whoever drives Hady (to the Ka’bah), all the things which are illegal for a (pilgrim) become illegal for that person till he slaughters it (i.e. till the 10th of Thoo al-Hijjah).’ “`Amrah added, `’Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) commented, ‘It is not like what Ibn `Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) had said: I twisted the garlands of the Hady of Allah’s Messenger ﷺ with my own hands. Then Allah’s Messenger ﷺ put them around their necks with his own hands, sending them with my father; yet nothing permitted by Allah was considered illegal for Allah’s Messenger till he slaughtered the Hady.’“
.

Commentary : The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) were very keen to follow the guidance of the Prophet ﷺin all his statements and actions. Some of them would correct others concerning that.
In this hadeeth, ‘Amrah bint ‘Abdur al-Rahmaan reports that Ziyaad ibn Abee Sufyaan, a.k.a. Ziyaad ibn Abeeh wrote to ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) advocates that if a person drives the sacrificial animal, be it from the camels, cows, sheep and goats, to the Sacred house, in order for them to be sacrificed in the Hajj, without him assuming the Ihraam for Hajj and travelling for such purpose; then, all that is prohibited for the pilgrim will be prohibited for him too. With that said, such a person should not wear perfume, have intercourse with his wives, or do other things among the prohibited things of Ihraam. He must remain in that state until his sacrificial animal is slaughtered. However, when the Mother of the Believers, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) heard of the view of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him), she responded to this fatwa stating that it contravened what the Messenger of Allah ﷺdid. She explained that she used to make the garlands – collars – which were placed aaround the necks of the sacrificial animals of the Prophet ﷺwhich he would send forth, while he was not intending Hajj or assuming the Ihraam for Hajj. The Prophet ﷺwould place the garlands on the sacrificial animals with his noble hands, and then send them with Aboo Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) to the Hajj in the year nine of the Hijrah when the latter performed the Hajj with the people. On the other hand, the Prophet ﷺremained at home and did not commit to the obligations that are imposed upon the person who is in the state of Ihraam and enjoyed all that which is allowed for other besides the one who enters into the state of Ihraam either for the Hajj or ‘Umrah.
This hadeeth shows the legality of sending the sacrificial animals to the Sacred Mosque by the person who has not gone there to perform Hajj or ‘Umrah.
It shows that a high-status person should serve himself by himself, even if there are others who will take care of his needs.
It illustrates the reality of some scholars correcting and responding to other scholars [with proofs]..

‘Ā’ishah reported: When Sa‘d ibn Abi Waqqās died, the wives of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sent a message to bring his bier into the mosque so that they should offer prayer over him, which they did. It was placed in front of their rooms, and they offered prayer over him. It was brought out of the Door of Funerals, which was towards the side of Maqā‘id, and news reached them that the people criticized that, saying: It is not appropriate for a bier to be taken into the mosque! This was conveyed to ‘Ā’ishah, and she said: "How quick people are in criticizing what they have no knowledge about! They criticized us that a bier should be brought into the mosque, whereas the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did not offer prayer over Suhayl ibn Baydā’ except deep inside the mosque.".

Commentary : The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) were the keenest among people on following the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), and they would probably correct one another when it came to unclear matters or confusing to them.
In this Hadīth, the Mother of the Believers ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) says when the Companion Sa‘d ibn Abi Waqqās (may Allah be pleased with him) died, and he passed away in his palace in the region of Al-‘Aqīq, ten miles away from Madīnah, in 55 A.H., according to the famous view, and he was carried on the shoulders of men so as to be buried in the Baqī‘, the graveyard of the people of Madīnah, which happened during the caliphate of Mu‘āwiyah ibn Abi Sufyān (may Allah be pleased with him), and Marawān ibn Al-Hakam was the then-governor of Madīnah. The Prophet's wives sent word to those who were carrying him and asked them to bring the bier - in reference to the deceased person - to the Prophet's Mosque so that the Mothers of the Believers, the Prophet's wives, could offer prayer over him. In a version by Muslim, it was ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) who asked for that. The bier was brought into the mosque and placed in front of the rooms of the Mothers of the Believers, who offered the funeral prayer over him. After the prayer was finished, he was taken out of the Door of Funerals, i.e., the door of the mosque that was prepared for the passing of funerals; or because the funerals would often pass through this door - given its closeness to the direction of the Baqī‘ - it was called as such. It was located near "the Maqā‘id", which was situated behind the eastern wall of the Prophet's Mosque, east of the noble chamber, where the Imām would stand up to offer the funeral prayer, the Prophet's grave would lay to his right. It was said: "The Maqā‘id" is a place at the door of the mosque reserved for sitting for the fulfillment of needs, performing ablution, and taking rest. And it was said: It was a stone near the house of ‘Uthmān (may Allah be pleased with him) upon which he used to sit. It was also said: It was stairs. News reached ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the people criticized the entry of the bier into the mosque for the funeral prayer. That is because they would usually offer the funeral prayer outside the mosque, in an open space. Thereupon, ‘Ā’ishah said in wonder: "How quickly people are criticizing what they have no knowledge about!" i.e., how quickly they forgot the Sunnah. It was said: How quick they are in maligning and finding faults. It was also said: How quick they are in denying what they do not know, namely the ruling on bringing the bier into the mosque. Therefore, they criticized us for bringing the bier into the mosque. Then, ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) cited the Prophet's action as evidence, saying: "Whereas the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did not offer prayer for Suhayl ibn Baydā,’" i.e., for his funeral. Suhayl (may Allah be pleased with him) was one of those who engaged in the two immigrations—to Abyssinia and Madinah—and he participated in the battles of Badr and ’Uhud. He (may Allah be pleased with him) died after the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) returned from the battle of Tabuk, 9 A.H. "except deep inside the mosque" and within it. This proves that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did offer the funeral prayer in the mosque, even if a few times, but this points to permissibility.
In the Hadīth: The merit of the knowledge of ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her)
And in it: Offering the funeral prayers inside the mosque and outside it
And in it: Offering the funeral prayer by women
And in it: The Sunnah should not be abandoned because some people deny it out of ignorance; rather, it should be demonstrated to the people and taught to those who are ignorant about it..

‘Ā’ishah reported, saying: "Should I not tell you about the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and me?" We said: 'Yes.' [In a version] from Muhammad ibn Qays ibn Makhramah ibn al-Muttalib that he said one day: "Should I not tell you about me and my mother?" He said: "We thought he meant his mother who gave birth to him." He said: "‘Ā’ishah said: 'Should I not tell you about me and the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)?' We said: 'Yes.' She said: 'When it was my turn and the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was to spend the night with me, he turned and put down his mantle and took off his shoes and placed them near his feet. Then, he spread the end of his Izār (lower garment) on his bed and lay down until he thought that I had gone asleep. He took hold of his mantle slowly and put on his shoes slowly, and opened the door and went out and then closed it gently. I put on my head cover and my veil and tightened my Izār, and then went out following his steps until he reached the Baqī‘. He stood there for a long time. He then lifted his hands three times, and then returned and I also returned. He hastened his steps, and I also hastened my steps. He ran and I ran too. He came (to the house), and I also came (to the house). I, however, preceded him and entered (the house), and as I lay down in bed, he entered and said: 'What is the matter with you, O ‘Ā’ishah; you are out of breath and your abdomen is heightened?' I said: 'Nothing.' He said: 'Either you tell me or the Gentle and the All-Aware will inform me.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be redeemed for you.' Then, I told him everything. He said: 'So, you were the darkness that I saw in front of me?' I said: 'Yes.' He struck me on the chest, and it was painful, and he then said: 'Did you think that Allah and His Messenger would be unfair to you?' I said: 'Whatever people conceal, Allah knows it. Yes.' He said: 'Jibrīl came to me when you saw me. He called me and he concealed it from you. I responded to his call, but I too concealed it from you, as he would never come to you while you are undressed. I thought that you had gone asleep, and I did not like to awaken you, fearing that you might be afraid of being left alone. Jibrīl said to me: 'Your Lord commands you to go to the inhabitants of the Baqī‘ and seek forgiveness for them.'’ I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what should I say to them?' He said: 'Say: Peace be upon the inhabitants of this place among the believers and Muslims. May Allah have mercy upon those of us who went before and those who will go later, and we will join you, Allah Willing.’’”.

Commentary : The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was compassionate and merciful towards his Ummah. He used to supplicate for the Muslims while they were alive and dead, and he would teach those who asked what was beneficial to them. His wives (may Allah be pleased with them) were among the people with the most knowledge of his conditions at home.
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Muhammad ibn Qays ibn Makhramah ibn al-Muttalib relates that he heard the Mother of the Believers ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrate to the people one day about some situation between her and the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). In an exciting manner, she said to those around her: "Should I not tell you about the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and me?" i.e., information related to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and his Sunnah in his dwelling and house. People listened to her and replied in the affirmative that she should narrate to them, and in the same interesting manner in another version: Muhammad ibn Qays one day said to his companions: "Should I not tell you about me and my mother?" The people thought he meant his mother who had given birth to him. Yet, he meant our Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and the Mother of the Believers ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), as Allah Almighty says: {The Prophet has a greater claim over the believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers.} [Surat al-Ahzāb: 6] Then, he mentioned that she (may Allah be pleased with her) told him that when it was her night in which the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) would stay with her, he turned to his bed in which he would lie down. It was said: He departed from the mosque after the ‘Ishā’ prayer and turned back to his bed, took off his clothing and shoes, and placed them near his legs so that he could put them on when he got up to leave. He spread his Izār - the garment that covers his lower body - over the bed and slept on it. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) lay down in bed to sleep, but he only remained in this state of lying down for as long as he thought that ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) had lain down and slept. He took his garment gently and calmly, lest she might get up from her sleep. And he wore his shoes, also in a calm and gentle way. He opened the door, went out of the house, and closed the door calmly and gently, without making a sound. He did all that in a subdued and calm manner out of compassion toward her, lest he awaken her, and thus he would leave her awake, and she might feel solitude and loneliness in the darkness of night.
‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with him) sensed the departure of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and she wore her garment from above her head, covered her head with a veil, and used her Izār as a cover whereby she concealed her face. Then, she went after the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to know where he was about to go. She found that he had left and headed towards the Baqī‘, the graveyard of the people of Madīnah located on the eastern side of the Prophet's Mosque. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stood up in the Baqī‘ to supplicate for its people. He stood for a long time and then raised his hands supplicating for them three times. When a supplication is repeated, it is more likely to be accepted. After he had finished, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) left the Baqī‘ and headed home. ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) left her place before she could be seen by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) quickened his steps, and so did ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her). He ran moderately at a pace faster than walking. So, ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) jogged. Thereupon, he increased the intensity of his running, and ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) increased the intensity of her running as well.
‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reached there ahead of him and entered the house. Once she lay down in her sleeping place, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) entered after her. He asked her: "What is the matter with you, O ‘Ā’ishah?!" He called her name with a shortened form out of gentleness and cordiality. "you are out of breath," which happens to a person when he walks fast or talks in a nervous way. "and your abdomen is heightened?" What is the reason behind the disturbance of your body and your breathlessness? She informed him that there was nothing in her that caused that. Thereupon, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: "Either you tell me" about the reason for your disturbance and breathlessness, "or the Al-Latīf (the Gentle)," the Compassionate towards His servants "and the Al-Khabīr (the All-Aware)" the Knower of their conditions, apparent and hidden "will inform me" about the reason for your disturbance and breathlessness. ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) replied: "O Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be redeemed for you," may my parents be redeemed to protect you from any harm. She told him about the reason and that she walked after him to find out where he was going. Thereupon, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) understood and knew that she was the person he saw while returning. So, he said to her: "So, you were the darkness," i.e., the person that I saw in front of me when I returned from the Baqī‘? She said: Yes. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pushed her hard, or struck her on her chest with his fist, causing pain to her. Then, he said to her: "Did you think that Allah and His Messenger would be unfair to you?" i.e., that Allah and His Messenger would wrong you. The meaning: Did you think that I have wronged you by giving you your day and turning to someone else? The mention of Allah is a preparation and prelude for the mention of His Messenger. He is not meant by the word 'unfairness'. His mention affords respect to the Messenger and indicates that the Messenger would not do anything without permission from Allah Almighty.
Confirming the Prophet's statement, ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Whatever people conceal," i.e., anything a person conceals and hides from others, "Allah knows it," for He is the One Who knows the innermost thoughts. This seems to be an acknowledgment by her of this thinking.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed her about the reality of what he did and his leaving at that time, namely that Jibrīl (peace be upon him), the angel in charge of the revelation, came to him when ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) saw the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) get up from his bed. So, Jibrīl (peace be upon him) called out to him from outside the room and hid his call from ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) so that she would not hear it. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) answered him and responded to his call and hid his response from ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her). Then, he clarified to her the reason for this concealment, saying that Jibrīl (peace be upon him) called out to him from outside the room because he would not enter the room of ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) when she was undressed. Also, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) told her that upon leaving, he thought that she had slept; so, he disliked awakening her and feared she might feel gloomy if he had left her awake alone in the darkness of the night.
Then, when he went out to Jibrīl (peace be upon him), he said to him: "Your Lord commands you to go to the dwellers of the Baqī‘ graveyard and seek forgiveness for them," i.e., supplicate and ask Allah Almighty to forgive their sins. Whereupon, ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) asked: "'O Messenger of Allah, what should I say to them" if I want to visit them? This applies to the people of the graves in general. In other words: What dhikr and supplication should I say when I visit the graves? So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) taught her to say: "Peace be upon the dwellers of these dwellings among the believers and Muslims;" the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) called the place of the graves a dwelling and dwellings, for they are gathered therein like the living people in houses. "May Allah have mercy upon those of us who went before," i.e., those who died before us. "of us," the community of believers. "and those who will go later," i.e., those who will die later, after us. "and we will join you, Allah willing," in dying while being Muslims. His statement "Allah willing" does not denote doubt; rather, it was for seeking blessing and complying with Allah's command to him: {And never say about anything, “I will surely do this tomorrow*," without adding: "if Allah wills"} to the rest of the verse. [Surat al-Kahf: 23-24]
In the Hadīth: Prolonging and repeating supplication
And in it: Raising one's hands in supplication
And in it: Supplication while standing is more perfect than supplication while sitting in the graveyards
And in it: The Prophet's leniency and mercy
And in it: What should be said upon entering the graveyards
And in it: Greeting the dead is like greeting the living.
And in it: Supplicating for Allah's mercy upon the living and the dead
And in it: Demonstrating women's innate disposition of jealousy
And in it: A husband disciplining his wife by striking her with his hand and the like, even if this causes pain to her
And in it: Visiting the graves by women.

Abu Hurayrah reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) visited the grave of his mother and wept and caused those around him to weep. Then, he said: "I sought permission from my Lord to ask forgiveness for her, but I was not permitted, and I sought permission from Him to visit her grave, and I was permitted. So, visit the graves, for they remind of death.".

Commentary : Mentioning death and visiting the dead and the graves remind one of the Hereafter and the inevitable end for every human. This motivates one to work. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to visit those buried in the Baqī‘ cemetery.
In this Hadīth, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) relates the story of the Prophet's visit to the grave of his mother and the lessons it offers. The grave of the Prophet's mother was in Al-Abwā’, located between Makkah and Madīnah, 67km away from Rābigh, north of the region of Makkah. During Jāhiliyyah and the early period of Islam, it belonged to the dwellings of Banu Damrah, from the tribe of Kinānah. Today, it belongs to the dwellings of Banu ‘Amr ibn Harb. This visit took place during the year of the Conquest of Makkah, 8 A.H. The reason behind the Prophet's visit to her grave was to seek strong admonition and reminder by watching her grave. This is supported by his statement at the end of the Hadīth: "So, visit the graves, for they remind of death." It was said: The Prophet's visit to her grave, despite her being a disbeliever, was meant to teach the Ummah the rights due to one's parents and relatives. He did not fail to fulfill her rights although she was a disbeliever. When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) saw the grave of his mother, he wept, and those around him wept for his weeping.
So, clarifying the reason for his weeping, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I sought permission from my Lord to ask forgiveness for her" - by supplicating for the pardon and elimination of sins - "but I was not permitted" because she was a disbeliever, and it is not permissible to ask for Allah's forgiveness for the disbelievers, for Allah will never forgive them. Allah Almighty says: {Allah does not forgive associating partners with Him but forgives anything less than that for whom He wills.} [Surat an-Nisā’: 48] The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said that he sought permission to visit the grave of his mother, and Allah Almighty permitted him to do that. Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "So, visit the graves, for they," i.e., the graves or visiting the graves" remind of death." Remembrance of death softens the believing hearts, particularly when it is associated with the meanings of elimination, resurrection, questioning, and standing before Allah.
In the Hadīth: It is prohibited to ask for Allah's forgiveness for anyone who dies in a religion other than Islam.
And in it: Visiting non-Muslim parents
And in it: Visiting the graves reminds of death and the Hereafter.
And in it: Weeping during the visit to the graves.

Buraydah reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I have forbidden you from receptacles; indeed, receptacles - or a receptacle - do not make something lawful or unlawful, and every intoxicant is unlawful.".

Commentary : The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was concerned about the Muslims and what served their interests and welfare, and he would probably enjoin something or prohibit it at a certain time and under certain circumstances for some purpose and then change the command or prohibition after the end of the circumstances for another purpose.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says: "I have forbidden you from receptacles," i.e., I have forbidden you before that from some receptacles and vessels which were used for keeping food and drink. These receptacles whose use was forbidden by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) include the following: Ad-Dubbā’: The pumpkin, after withering and becoming dry, is used as a receptacle. An-Naqīr: The hole and empty space made in the trunks of palm trees. Al-Muzaffat: What is smeared with the asphalt. Al-Hantam: The green jars among the pottery made of mud, blood, and hair. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade them to block the means to what is unlawful, lest intoxication may happen because of them, for these receptacles help in this process; so, the drink may turn into wine while they do not know, and thus they will fall into what Allah prohibited.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "indeed, receptacles - or a receptacle - do not make something lawful or unlawful." A receptacle is a container or vessel. The meaning: These vessels were not prohibited per se, but they were prohibited due to their effect on the drink placed therein, which hastens its transformation into wine. This indirectly indicates that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) permitted the use of these receptacles which he used to prohibit; but if what is in them turns into wine, it is prohibited to drink it.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "and every intoxicant is unlawful," i.e., the rule governing whether a vessel is lawful or unlawful is that every drink that covers the mind and causes its loss is unlawful. This statement by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) constitutes a key principle in prohibiting the consumption of all intoxicants that cover the mind, with all their different forms and types.
In the Hadīth: Demonstrating Islam's care about the soundness and attentiveness of the mind, for it is the basis of accountability..

Buraydah reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I forbade you from visiting graves, but you may visit them, and I forbade you from the meat of sacrificial animals after three days, but you may keep it as long as you wish, and I forbade you from wine except in a water-skin, but you may drink it from all kinds of water-skins, yet you must not drink anything intoxicating.".

Commentary : The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was concerned about the Muslims and what served their interests and welfare, and he would probably enjoin something or prohibit it at a particular time and under certain circumstances for some reason and then change the command or prohibition after the end of the circumstances for another reason.
This is one of the Hadīths that combine abrogating and abrogated rulings. He (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I forbade you from visiting graves, but you may visit them," i.e., I earlier forbade you from visiting graves, for they were not too far from the era of Jāhiliyyah and the worship of idols and the supplication to idols. So, they were prohibited from visiting graves for fear they might say or do any of the things they used to say or do in Jāhiliyyah and for fear that this might be a means leading to the worship of those buried in the graves. But now Islam has become strong, and the foundations of polytheistic visits have been demolished. So, you may visit them, for this inspires softness of the heart, reminds of death and decay, etc., which prompts one to do good and prepare for this day.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed that he had initially forbidden the Muslims to store the meat of sacrificial animals for more than three days. This prohibition was for the sake of the poor and needy who came to Madīnah when famine hit the desert. As a result, the desert dwellers entered Madīnah. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited the Muhājirūn and the Ansār from storing the meat of sacrificial animals for more than three nights so that they should instead give to those poor and needy people. Then, he gave them the new command, saying: "but you may keep it as long as you wish" i.e., you may store their meat for the period you want. Or the intended meaning: Keep the meat that remains after you have given out what is due to the poor.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) told that he had earlier forbidden the Muslims from drinks prepared in certain containers. This refers to such sweet fruits as raisins, dried dates, figs, or others, that are soaked in water till they turn into wine. He excluded from those vessels the water-skin vessel, which is a leather container that does not make water hot; therefore, the drink does not become intoxicating in a short time. By contrast, other vessels make water hot and turn the drink into an intoxicant. Hence, he allowed them to consume drinks in any container, unless they become intoxicating. He said: "But you may drink it from all kinds of water-skins, yet you must not drink anything intoxicating." The meaning: Drink all kinds of drinks put in vessels and containers, provided that the drink is not intoxicating. Consequently, what is prohibited is intoxicants, not the utensils or vessels themselves.
The Hadīth indicates that a Muslim may store the meat of sacrificial animals for as long as he wishes.
It enjoins visiting graves for reminder and admonition.
It forbids the drinking of intoxicants..

Jābir ibn Samurah reported: A man who killed himself with a broad-headed arrow was brought to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), but he did not offer the funeral prayer for him..

Commentary : The preservation of life is one of the supreme objectives of the Islamic Shariah, and killing a person unjustly is one of the gravest major sins. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was keen to deter the Muslim from killing himself.
In this Hadīth, Jābir ibn Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the bier of one of the Muslim men who had killed himself with a broad-headed arrow, was brought to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), but the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did not offer the funeral prayer for him by himself, by way of deterring people from acting like the dead person. However, the Companions offered the funeral prayer for him. Likewise, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) initially refrained from offering the funeral prayer for a debtor, to deter them from taking borrowing lightly and neglecting repayment. He commanded his Companions to offer the funeral prayer for him. He (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Pray for your companion." Narrated by Al-Bukhāri and Muslim.
In the Hadīth: The graveness of killing people.

Abu Hurayrah reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No Zakah is payable on the slave except Zakat al-Fitr.".

Commentary : Zakah is an obligation Allah Almighty ordained upon the rich to be given back to the poor. Allah Almighty and His Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) specified all details and rulings related to this obligation so that the rich would not be wronged and the poor's rights would not be lost.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says: "No Zakah is payable on the slave except Zakat al-Fitr" i.e., Zakah on personal property is not payable on slaves and slavegirls who serve their owners and are not retained for trade; this is because Zakah is due upon growing wealth, which grows and increases by earning. As for slaves, they are used in the service of their masters and owners. As regards them, their owners either pay only Zakat al-Fitr on their behalf, which is a Sā‘ of food for each slave, or, in case they are slaves with whom their owner does business, he should pay Zakah on the commodities and profits of his trade, if they reach the Nisāb (the minimum Zakatable amount) and witness the passage of one lunar year.
The Hadīth shows Allah's mercy toward His servants, as He pardoned the Zakah on slaves..

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Any owner of gold or silver who does not pay what is due on them, on the Day of Resurrection, plates of fire will be heated for him in the fire of Hell, and his side, forehead, and back will be seared with them. When they cool down, they will be heated again and the same process will be repeated during a day the measure of which is fifty thousand years long until judgment is established among the slaves and he will see his path, either to Paradise or to Hellfire." It was said: "O Messenger of Allah, what about camels?" He said: "Any owner of camels who does not pay what is due on them, and part of what is due on them is to milk them on the day they are taken to water, when the Day of Resurrection comes, he will be made to lie down on a vast smooth plain, and they (the camels) will come, more numerous than they have ever been without even a single young one missing thereof. They will trample him with their hooves and bite him with their mouths; as often as the first of them passes over him, the last of them will be made to return and pass over him in a day the measure of which is fifty thousand years, until judgment is established among the slaves and he sees his path, either to Paradise or to Hellfire." It was said: "O Messenger of Allah, what about cows and sheep?" He said: "Any owner of cows or sheep who does not pay what is due on them, when the Day of Resurrection comes, he will be made to lie down on a vast smooth plain and they will come without any of them missing. There will be none among them with twisted horns, without horns, or with a broken horn; they will gore him with their horns and trample him with their hooves; as often as the first of them passes over him, the last of them will be made to return and pass over him in a day the measure of which is fifty thousand years, until judgment is established among the slaves and he will see his path, either to Paradise or to Hellfire." It was said: "O Messenger of Allah, what about horses?" He said: "Horses are of three types: for a man they are a burden, for another man they are a shield, and for a third man they are a source of reward. The one for whom they are a burden is the person who rears them in order to show off, for vainglory, and to oppose the Muslims; so they are a burden for him. The one for whom they are a shield is the person who keeps them for the sake of Allah and then does not forget the right of Allah concerning their backs and their necks, and so they are a shield for him. The one for whom they bring reward is the person who keeps them in a meadow and pasture for the sake of Allah in order to be used for the interest of the people of Islam. Whatever they eat from that meadow or pasture will be recorded for him as good deeds, and even their dung and urine will be recorded for him as good deeds. They will not break their halter and prance a course or two except that Allah will record their hoof marks and their dung as good deeds for him. And their owner does not take them past a river from which they drink, though he did not intend thereby to quench their thirst, except that Allah will record for him the amount they drink as good deeds." It was said: "O Messenger of Allah, what about donkeys?" He said: "Nothing has been revealed to me in regard to donkeys except this unique comprehensive verse: {So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it*. And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.} [Surat az-Zalzalah: 7-8]".

Commentary : Wealth is the adornment of worldly life. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) outlined the rights due on those who own ample wealth - of Zakah and charity - and demonstrated the merit and reward they will gain in return for that. He also clarified the punishment for those who do not fulfill these rights.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says that anyone who owns wealth, including gold and silver, and hoards it without fulfilling the rights due on them, by paying the Zakah and fulfilling Allah's rights therein, this wealth will certainly take the form of plates of iron on the Day of Judgment. It was said: of the same metal he hoards; they will be heated in the fire of Hell and his side, forehead - alluding to his face - and back will be seared with them. They will be placed on his body to torment him. This accords with the verse that reads: {On the Day when their treasures will be heated up in the Fire of Hell, and their foreheads, sides and backs will be branded therewith. [They will be told]: "This is what you hoarded for yourselves; so, taste [the punishment of] what you used to hoard."} [Surat at-Tawbah: 35] So, He made the gold, silver, and wealth the very things that will be heated up in the fire of Hell on the Day of Judgment. What they hoarded and withheld its rights will be kindled in Hellfire. When its heat becomes intense, it will be placed on their foreheads, sides, and backs, and it will be said to them, rebukingly: This is your wealth, which you collected but did not fulfill. So, taste the outcome and evil consequences of what you used to collect and not fulfill its rights.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned that whenever their heat subsides, they will be heated again, and he will be tormented therewith again. This is meant to point to the continuity and permanence of the punishment. This punishment will be inflicted upon him on the Day of Judgment, the measure of which is fifty thousand years, which is the length of the day of reckoning. He will continue to receive punishment for all this period until Allah judges between all humankind. Then, after this punishment, the owner of the wealth will know his fate and recompense. Either Allah will show mercy to him and admit him to Paradise, by His grace, or he will endure in the punishment of Hellfire as a just recompense for his evil deed.
After demonstrating the condition and recompense of he who hoards gold and silver, the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) about the wealth of camels as to what should be done with it and about the punishment of one who does not fulfill the right and Zakah due on it. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) warned camel owners about not paying the Zakah due on them and not giving charity from any wealth derived from them. Part of these rights concerning camels is to milk them and give charity from their milk, especially when they go to drink from the reservoirs of wells and the like, as camels drink every three or four days; so, their milk is to be given to those who need it or to the passers-by, and so on. This is because milking on this day is better for the she-camel and more kind to the needy. It was the habit of the poor and needy to come to that place where camels arrive for drinking, in order to take from their milk; so, if anyone does not fulfill these rights, his recompense on the Day of Judgment will be that he will be made to sit and lie down on his face before these camels, "on a vast smooth plain," which will be broader for the camels, and so they will trample him without hindrance. The camels will come and be created again with a larger number than they were in his possession, and in the best condition, and they will come in their entirety, with none missing, even the young of the she-camel will come with them. "They will trample him with their hooves and bite him with their mouths," i.e., they will walk over him. A hoof is like a foot for humans. Every time they walk and pass over him up until the last camel among them, they will return and pass over him beginning with the last camel, which will now be the first. This means that they will keep walking over him nonstop, on the Day of Judgment, the measure of which is fifty thousand years, until Allah judges between the slaves; and he will know his fate, either to Paradise or to Hellfire, like the former person, the owner of silver and gold.
The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) about the other types of wealth, namely cows and sheep, in case their owner does not fulfill their Shar‘i rights; what is his recompense? The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) told them that if any owner of cows or sheep does not give what is due on them, his recompense on the Day of Judgment will be that he will be made to sit and lie down on his face for these cows and sheep in a vast level place, which will be broader for the cows and sheep. So, they will come in their most complete number in worldly life; "There will be none among them with twisted horns," i.e., none of the cows or sheep will have twisted horns; rather, their horns will be level and extended. So, they will be stronger and more severe in hitting; "without horns," i.e., none of the cows or sheep will be without horns; rather, they will all have horns. And they will include no cow or sheep with broken horns. These animals will all walk upon their owner, hitting him with their horns and heads and trampling him with their hooves and feet. Hooves are the protruding bones at the tips of the feet of cows and sheep. Every time the first of them passes over him, the last of them will be made to return and pass over him on the Day of Judgment, the measure of which is fifty thousand years, until Allah judges between the slaves. And he will know his fate, either to Paradise or to Hellfire.
So, the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): What should we do with horses, and what is due regarding them? In response, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Horses are of three types," i.e., their owners fall under three categories in terms of reward and recompense. First: "for a man they are a burden," i.e., they bring him sins and misdeeds. Such is the man who keeps and raises them to show off among people by their substantial number, value, and good appearance, and by riding them. They may also be intended for hostility and war against the people of Islam and engaging in war against them. So, they incur burdens and sins for their owner. Second: "for another man they are a shield," i.e., they shield him and make him in no need to beg people in this life. Such is the man who keeps, raises, and fosters them for charitable purposes for himself and for others. In a version by Al-Bukhāri: "who keeps them for earning his living and to be free from asking others," like trading in them or utilizing them for his interests and the benefits of his land and so on, even if he does not offer them for Jihad in the cause of Allah and war; and he does not neglect the right of Allah in them; rather, he fulfills the rights due on him regarding them; one of these is to extend their benefits to people, by lending them to those who need them. Third: "and for a third man they are a source of reward," i.e., they bring reward for their owner. Such is the one who devotes them for serving the people of Islam, spreading the religion, and conducting Jihad for His cause. Part of his preservation of them is that he fosters them "in a meadow and pasture," i.e., in gardens and groves where they pasture and eat. Every time they eat or drink from that garden or grove, a reward is recorded for him with Allah Almighty and as many virtuous deeds as the number of dungs they excrete are recorded for him. Dung is the excrement and waste coming out of the abdomens of animals. This indicates the extreme keenness to count the reward, for if honorable deeds are recorded according to the number of dung and urine, so what about other things?!
It was said: Dung and urine are recorded as good deeds because the continuity of their lives lies in them, though their origin, before the transformation, mostly come from their owner's money.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed out the additional rewards for their owners due to their foot marks and the movements they make. So, he said that "they will not break their halter," i.e., any of their ropes; "and prance a course or two," i.e., they run quickly, go off, and ascend a high land or a mountain or two; "except that Allah will record their hoof marks," i.e., the number of their steps, "and their dung as good deeds for him. And their owner does not take them past a river from which they drink, though he did not intend thereby to quench their thirst, except that Allah will record for him the amount they drink as good deeds." The intended meaning: All the times of their life and all their movements, eating, and drinking are recorded for their owner as rewards and good deeds, by the grace and bounty of Allah.
Then, the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked him: What is due regarding the local donkeys which are used for ploughing and servicing the land? The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) replied that nothing was revealed to him about donkeys and what is due regarding them, "except this unique comprehensive verse," i.e., it is unparalleled, and it contains all meanings of good and evil deeds, including the obligatory or supererogatory acts of worship. It is the words that read: {So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it. And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.} [Surat az-Zalzalah: 7-8] An atom is a small ant or fine dust that floats in the air and can be seen in light. The meaning: The effect of every deed, good or evil, even if it is so little, will be seen, and the person will be held accountable for it before Allah Almighty. So, if he helps someone to ride them, he will be rewarded, and if he rides them to commit a sin, he will be punished.
In the Hadīth: It intimidates and deters us from hoarding wealth and failing to give what is due to Allah therein.
And in it: It demonstrates the harsh punishment for withholding the Zakah.
And in it: It demonstrates the duty of paying Zakah on silver and gold, and on camels, cows, and sheep, with the relevant conditions.
And in it: It shows the merit of horses and the goodness and blessings lying in their forelocks, if they are used for righteous purposes.
And in it: It encourages the doing of good, no matter how small or light in weight it may be..

Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh al-Ansāri reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) say: "There is no owner of camels who does not pay what is due on them except that they will come on the Day of Judgment with a greater number than they ever were, and he will be made to sit on a level expanse, and they will trample on him with their forelegs and hooves. And no owner of cows who does not pay what is due on them except that they will come on the Day of Judgment with a greater number than they ever were, and he will be made to sit on a level expanse, and they will gore him with their horns and trample him with their forelegs. And no owner of sheep who does not pay what is due on them except that they will come on the Day of Judgment with a greater number than they ever were, and he will be made to sit on a level expanse. They will gore him with their horns and trample him with their cloven hooves, and none among them will be without horns or with broken horns. And no owner of a treasure who does not pay its due on it except that his treasure will come on the Day of Judgment like a bald snake and will pursue him with its mouth open, and when it comes near him, he will run away from it, and it will call him: 'Take your treasure which you concealed, for I am in no need for it.' When he sees that there is no way out, he will put his hand in its mouth, and it will gnaw it like a he-camel." Abu az-Zubayr said: I heard ‘Ubayd ibn ‘Umayr say: A man said: "O Messenger of Allah, what is due on camels?" He said: "Milking them near water, and lending their bucket, lending their males and their females, and providing them as a ride in the cause of Allah.".

Commentary : Wealth is the adornment of worldly life. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) outlined the rights obligatory for those with ample wealth - of Zakah and charity - and demonstrated the merit and reward they would gain in return. He also clarified the punishment for those who do not fulfill these rights.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) demonstrates to us that if anyone does not pay Zakah on the cattle he possesses, they will come on the Day of Judgment with a more significant number than they were in his ownership, for they may undergo different conditions with him; sometimes lean, sometimes fat, and occasionally young, and at other times old. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that they would come in the best condition in which they were with their owner. If they are camels or cows and he does not pay the Zakah due on them, they would trample him with their legs and gore him with their horns, and the camels would hit him with their hooves. A hoof is the pliant part at the end of the foot of the camel. Such a man would be made to sit for them against his will. "on a level expanse" (in Arabic Qā‘ Qarqar): Qā‘: an area of level ground, and water from the sky goes over it and it holds it. Qarqar: is also a vast plain. This indicates that the place can hold any number of animals. So, all that he possessed would come to this place, and he would be punished with his wealth, which he did not pay what was due to Allah. Likewise, if they are sheep and he does not pay the Zakah due on them, they would gore him with their horns and trample him with their cloven hooves, which exist in cows, sheep, and antelopes, within their forelegs. These animals would come in their complete strength, and none of them would come without having horns or with broken horns.
If the person who withholds what is due on wealth is the owner of a treasure, which refers to a collected fortune inside the earth or above it, and he does not pay the Zakah on it, his treasure would come in the form of "a bald snake". When a snake is bald, i.e., with no hair on its head, this is due to its excessive poison and prolonged age, or this refers to a snake whose head turned white because of the poison. Allah would punish the owner of the treasure with this snake, which would pursue him with its mouth open. When the snake approached the punished person, he would flee and run away from it. Then, the snake would address the treasure owner, saying: "Take your treasure which you concealed, for I do not need it." As this man saw that he had no way of escaping from this snake, he would extend his hand and enter it inside its mouth, and the snake would "gnaw it" - gnaw means: eating and chewing vigorously - "like a he-camel", given its powerful gnawing.
Then, ‘Ubayd ibn ‘Umayr informs that a man asked the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): "What is due on camels?" i.e., the usual and customary right among the Arabs towards the poor and destitute, by way of solace and generosity. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said that camels should be milked upon coming to the water, and the poor people who are present should be given to drink from their milk. He associated milking with the place of water because it is easier for the poor to go to such places and this is kinder to cattle. It is also because their milk becomes abundant there. "and lending their bucket", which is to give their vessels, where they are milked, or they drink, to others so that they can utilize them in case of need; "lending their males", and in a version by Muslim: "lending their males for breeding"; this is when the male copulates with the female to make it pregnant - without taking a wage for that. "and their females"; Minhah, in Arabic, is an ewe or a she-camel. Its owner gives it to someone to drink from its milk and returns it when it ceases to flow. "and providing them as a ride in the cause of Allah", which is to give them to those who ride them in the battle to spread Allah's religion or for any charitable purpose. This version indicates that these four acts are obligatory. This Hadīth is probably taken to apply to the time of need, the duty of providing solace, and the state of necessity, as was the condition during the early phase of Islam. Thus, the Hadīth means that once these rights exist, become due, and are not fulfilled, this stern warning applies to the person who refrains from observing them.
The Hadīth mentions the punishment for those who do not pay Zakah.
It is enjoined to give Zakah on cattle.
It indicates that if a person does not show gratitude for a specific blessing and fulfill Allah's rights, it will cause misfortune and evil consequences for him on the Day of Judgment.
It is also indicated in the Hadīth that Allah Almighty will resurrect the very camels, cows, and sheep whose Zakah was not paid to punish those who withheld Zakah..

Jarīr ibn ‘Abdullāh reported: Some people from among the Bedouins came to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "Some people from among the Zakah collectors come to us and treat us unjustly." Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Make your Zakah collectors pleased." Jarīr said: Ever since I heard this from the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), no Zakah collector left me without being pleased with me..

Commentary : Islam regulated the matters of the religion and demonstrated how to perform the obligations and pillars. This includes its clarification of the rulings of Zakah, how to collect it, and the relevant requirements and etiquettes, so that this obligation can be fulfilled with willing hearts.
In this Hadīth, Jarīr ibn ‘Abdullāh (may Allah be pleased with him) informs that a group of Bedouins - those who live in the desert - came to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) in Madīnah and said: "Some people from among the Zakah collectors" who estimate people's wealth and take the due Zakah therefrom, "come to us and treat us unjustly," i.e., they take more than the amount required of us. Thereupon, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Make your Zakah collectors pleased." This means: Make them pleased by giving what is due, treating them gently, and refraining from opposing them. In a version narrated by Abu Dāwūd, they said: "O Messenger of Allah, even if they wrong us?" He said: "Make your Zakah collectors pleased, even if you are wronged." This statement is based on the presumed occurrence of injustice, not on its actual occurrence, and on the fact that if the Zakah collectors act justly, this is for themselves, and if they act unjustly, it is against themselves; whereas the property owner can lodge a complaint or clarify to him that this is not due to you; rather, what is due to you is such and such.
Then, Jarīr (may Allah be pleased with him) said that no Zakah collector had left him without being pleased with him, out of tolerance towards him and in compliance with the command of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
Meanwhile, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the Zakah collectors to refrain from injustice and to avoid the most precious items of people's property. In a Hadīth narrated by Al-Bukhāri and Muslim and reported by Mu‘ādh (may Allah be pleased with him), he said to them: "So, do not take the most precious items of their property. And beware of the supplication of the oppressed, for there is no barrier between it and Allah." Thus, both the Zakah collector and the Zakah payer should observe the limits set by Allah.
In the Hadīth: The necessity of paying the Zakah in all conditions.
And in it: Pleasing the Zakah collectors by paying the Zakah willingly and avoiding procrastination in its estimation
And in it: The keenness of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) to comply with the commands of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)..

Al-Ahnaf ibn Qays reported: While I was in the company of a group from Quraysh, Abu Dharr passed by as he was saying: "Give glad tidings to the hoarders of the wealth of branding in their backs that would come out of their sides, and branding from the direction of their napes that would come out of their foreheads." He said: Then, he turned aside and sat down. He said: I said: "Who is this?" They said: "This is Abu Dharr." He said: I rose and went to him and said: "What is the thing which I heard you say a while ago?" He said: "I only said something which I heard from their Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)." He said: I said: "What do you say about this gift?" He said: "Take it, for indeed it is a help today. But if it is a price for your religion, leave it.".

Commentary : Lawfully earned money is a favor from Allah Almighty, and it includes rights to the beggar and the destitute, and due upon it is Zakah and charity, which purifies it, grows it, and increases its blessing. Some people, however, act stingily and hoard wealth; as a result, their wealth brings them evil consequences in this world and the Hereafter.
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Al-Ahnaf ibn Qays informs that while he was in a group and company from Quraysh, in Madīnah, the Companion Abu Dharr al-Ghifāri (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by as he was saying: "Give glad tidings to the hoarders of wealth of branding in their backs." Glad tidings are given about pleasant incidents. So, he said it mockingly. Hoarding refers to wealth whose Zakah was not paid. However, if its Zakah is paid, this is not deemed hoarding, whether the wealth is large or little. The punishment for the hoarders on the Day of Judgment is that their backs will be branded with something that will emerge from their sides, and they will be branded from the back side of their heads with something that will emerge from their foreheads.
Then, after expressing these words, Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) went away, turned aside, and sat down. Thereupon, Al-Ahnaf asked: Who is this person who spoke earlier? They said: This is Abu Dharr, the Companion of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). So, Al-Ahnaf went to him and asked him: What is the meaning of the statement you made a short while ago? Is this your speech or something you heard from the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)? Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) informed him that he had heard what he said from the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). Then, Al-Ahnaf asked him: "What do you say about this gift?" i.e., what do you think about the gifts we receive from the caliphs and governors? It is as if Al-Ahnaf feared the warning uttered by Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) regarding those who hoard wealth and do not spend it in the way of Allah. Abu Dharr replied to him: "Take it, for indeed it is a help today" i.e., take it if it will help you fulfill your needs. However, if this gift is a bribe, so that you remain silent and do not criticize wrong acts and sell your religion, then leave it and do not take it if you cannot obtain it except in an unlawful way. Do not care about it, for the religion's soundness is more important than acquiring worldly gains.
The Hadīth demonstrates the stern warning to those who do not pay Zakah on their wealth.
It warns against gifts by the rulers if they cause people to be silent and not speak the truth, or buy their religion and consciences and make them speak falsehood..

Thawbān reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The most excellent Dinar (money) a man spends is the Dinar he spends on his dependents, and a Dinar he spends on his riding animal in the cause of Allah, and a Dinar he spends on his companions in the cause of Allah." Abu Qilābah said: He began with the dependents. Then, Abu Qilābah said: Who could obtain a greater reward than a man who spends on young dependents and saves them from want, or Allah benefits them through him and makes them self-sufficient?!.

Commentary : Spending in the cause of Allah is one of the best areas of benevolence. Such spending has numerous forms that are valued based on their respective worth and preferred over one another according to the relevant conditions and circumstances.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) demonstrates forms and areas of spending and arranges them in accordance with the relevant conditions, if a number of areas of spending converge at the same time. He said that the Dinar entailing the greatest reward is the one a person spends on his dependents and those he is obliged to provide for, such as his wife, children, and servants, if he seeks the Countenance of Allah thereby. In a version of the Two Sahīh Collections: "When a Muslim spends on his family seeking reward for it (from Allah), it counts for him as charity." So, it clarifies that if he seeks a reward for it from Allah, it counts as charity for him. This is because spending money on them is a duty, and he incurs a sin if he neglects them. Therefore, this entails a greater reward than if he spends on people other than his dependents and forsakes his dependents. The word 'Dinar' here is general and it comprises all money used for spending, and this applies to the contemporary currencies with their different kinds.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned spending on a person's riding animal which is prepared for war in the cause of Allah. He said: "and a Dinar he spends on his riding animal" which is garrisoned "in the cause of Allah," i.e., he prepared it to be ridden in battle and other similar endeavors. "and a Dinar he spends on his companions" while they are fighting "in the cause of Allah;" so, he spends on his comrades in battle. It was said: "in the cause of Allah" means every act of piety.
At the end of the Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Abu Qilābah ‘Abdullāh ibn Zayd, the narrator of the Hadīth, said: "He began with the dependents," i.e., the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) regarded a man's spending on his dependents as the worthiest of all spending. Then, Abu Qilābah said: "Who could obtain a greater reward than a man who spends on young dependents and saves them from want, or Allah benefits them through him and makes them self-sufficient?!" This is the opinion of Abu Qilābah regarding spending and the prioritization of the mentioned categories. He held that the best and most worthy spending is the one spent on young dependents and children who cannot earn their living. So, this spending saves them from begging people and makes them self-sufficient and away from humiliation and disgrace. This accords with a Hadīth narrated by Muslim, in which Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "and a Dinar you spend on your family; the greatest in reward is the one you spend on your family."
The Hadīth shows numerous areas of spending for benevolence, goodness, and charity.
It also demonstrates that spending on one's dependents is one of the greatest areas of spending.
As it indicates that spending on Jihad in the cause of Allah is one of the greatest areas of spending, such as preparing the equipment and men for Jihad..

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A Dinar you spend in the cause of Allah, a Dinar you spend on (freeing) a slave, a Dinar you give in charity to a needy person, and a Dinar you spend on your family; the greatest in reward is the one you spend on your family.".

Commentary : In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) demonstrates the areas of spending and goodness, their varying rewards, and which of them should be given precedence over others in case of the inability to do all of them. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs that the best spending is a Dinar you spend in the cause of Allah, i.e., in the battle, or in the general sense: in the way of goodness; a Dinar you spend to free someone from captivity or a slave from slavery; and a Dinar you spend on your family, like your wife and children and those you are obliged to spend on. Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) points out that the greatest of all these types of spending in terms of reward is the Dinar you spend on your family, provided that one intends it for the sake of Allah Almighty. In a version in the Two Sahīh Collections: "When a Muslim spends on his family seeking reward for it (from Allah), it counts for him as charity." So, it clarifies that if he seeks a reward for it from Allah, it counts as charity for him. This is because spending money on them is a duty, and he incurs a sin if he neglects them. Therefore, this entails a greater reward than if he spends on people other than his dependents, forsaking his dependents.
In the Hadīth: There are numerous areas of spending in righteousness, goodness, and charity.
And in it: Spending on one's dependents is one of the greatest areas of spending.
And in it: Spending on Jihad in the cause of Allah is one of the greatest areas of spending, such as preparing the equipment and men for Jihad..

Khaythamah reported: A household manager of ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr came in while we were sitting with him. Ibn ‘Amr said: "Did you give the slaves their sustenance?" He said: 'No.' Thereupon, he said: "Go and give them, for the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'It is enough sin for a man to withhold sustenance from those whom he should provide for.'".

Commentary : The Shariah cares about the rights of all people, even slaves, and even animals and cattle, as it obliges their owners to spend on them and observe their rights. How perfect the Shariah is! How comprehensive, upright, just, and complete the Shariah is!
In this Hadīth, Khaythamah ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān, one of the Tābi‘īs, informs that as they were sitting with ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him), one of his household managers came to him. ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him: "Did you give the slaves their sustenance?" Sustenance is the food that sustains the strength of one's body. He said: No, I did not give them their sustenance. So, ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) commanded him to quickly go and give them the food. Then, he clarified the reason behind that, saying that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is enough sin for a man," i.e., it is sufficient for a man as a means of incurring sins and misdeeds. "to withhold sustenance from those whom he should provide for," i.e., those he is obliged to spend on, like his family, dependents, and slaves. This means that if a person committed no other sin than withholding sustenance from those whom he should provide for, this would be enough as a sin for him that would make him worthy of entering Hellfire.
In the Hadīth: We are enjoined to spend money on those whom we are obligated to provide for..

Abu Dharr reported: Some of the Prophet's Companions said to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): "O Messenger of Allah, the wealthy people have taken all the rewards. They pray as we pray and fast as we fast, but they give charity from their excess wealth." He said, "Has Allah not given you something to give as charity? Every utterance of ‘Subhān Allah' (glory be to Allah) is charity; every utterance of ‘Allāhu akbar' (Allah is the Greatest) is charity; every utterance of ‘Alhamdulillāh' (praise be to Allah) is charity; every utterance of ‘Lā ilāha illa Allah' (there is no god but Allah) is charity; commanding the right is charity; forbidding the wrong is charity; and there is charity in sexual intercourse." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, does one of us satisfy his desire and get rewarded for that?" He replied, "What if he satisfies it unlawfully? Will he not incur a sin? Likewise, if he satisfies it lawfully, he will get a reward.".

Commentary : Due to their extreme keenness on performing righteous deeds and their fervent desire to do good, the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) would grieve over the honorable deeds they could not do while others were able to do them. So, the poor would feel sad because they missed the financial charity of which the rich were capable and would feel sad over their failure to join Jihad because they could not afford its equipment. Allah Almighty says: {Nor is there any blame on those who came to you asking you for mounts to take them along, and you said, "I can find no mounts for you," they turned away with their eyes overflowing with tears out of grief that they had nothing to spend.} [Surat at-Tawbah: 92]
In this Hadīth, the noble Companion Abu Dharr al-Ghifāri (may Allah be pleased with him) says that a group of poor people from among the Prophet's Companions said to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): "O Messenger of Allah, the wealthy people have taken all the rewards," i.e., people of great wealth exclusively obtain more reward from Allah Almighty and take it instead of us, by giving charity out of their money. "They pray as we pray and fast as we fast, but they give charity from their excess wealth." This is a complaint driven by positive greed, not envy or objection to Allah Almighty. They, however, asked for some bounty that would distinguish them from those to whom Allah gave wealth and so they gave their surplus money in charity. In response, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) directed them to certain types of charity of which they were capable. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Has Allah not given you something to give as charity?!" "Every utterance of ‘Subhān Allah' is charity," i.e., saying "glory be to Allah" is recorded as a reward of charity. "every utterance of ‘Allāhu akbar' is charity," i.e., saying "Allah is the Greatest." "every utterance of ‘Alhamdulillāh' is charity," i.e., saying "praise be to Allah." "every utterance of ‘Lā ilāha illa Allah' is charity," i.e., saying "there is no god but Allah." "commanding the right is charity;" it is recorded for him as a reward. "Ma‘roof" (the right): It is a term that refers to all that is known to be obedience to Allah Almighty and kindness to people. "forbidding the wrong" is recorded as a reward of 'charity' for the one who forbids it. "Munkar" (the wrong): It is every reprehensible deed or word that leads to disobedience to Allah Almighty, and it is a term that refers to all kinds of evil. Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) told them that if a man approaches his wife - alluding to the copulation and sexual intercourse between a man and his wife - this counts as charity. They said in wonder: "O Messenger of Allah, does one of us satisfy his desire and get rewarded for that?!" In response, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What if he satisfies it unlawfully? Will he not incur a sin?" i.e., if he commits adultery and satisfies his desire unlawfully, will he incur a sin and be subject to a penalty? Likewise, if he satisfies it lawfully, he will obtain a reward, for permissible things turn into acts of obedience by virtue of sincere intentions.
In a version narrated by Muslim and reported by Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): "So, the poor among the Muhājirūn (immigrants) returned to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and said: 'Our brethren, the possessors of wealth, have heard about what we did, and they have done the same.' Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'This is Allah’s favor He bestows upon whom He wills.'"
In the Hadīth: If a man suffices himself by what is lawful and makes himself in no need for what is unlawful, he gets rewarded for that.
And in it: Demonstrating that every type of goodness is charity
And in it: Showing the merit of glorifying Allah and all other dhikrs, commanding the right, and forbidding the wrong, and recalling the proper intention in doing permissible things
And in it: A knowledgeable person may cite evidence for some unknown questions.
And in it: Giving parables and analogical comparisons to make the topic clearer and more profound to those who hear it.
