Narrated ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her): Once the Prophet ﷺ sent sheep as Hady.
.

Commentary : Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has venerated the Sacred House. His Prophet ﷺas well has done likewise. He ﷺhas practically demonstrated as a Sunnah act that when a person himself does not go to the Haram to perform Hajj, then he should send a sacrificial animal to venerate the place and be more accommodative towards the poor of Makkah.
In this hadeeth, the Mother of the Believers, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports that once the Prophet ﷺsent forth the sheep to the House without assuming the Ihraam for Hajj or ‘Umrah and without anything among the prohibited things of the Ihraam being disallowed for him. The Hady is that animal that is sent to the Sacred House – from the camels, cows, sheep and goats – in order to be sacrificed there as a means of getting closer to Allah and as an act of showing gratitude towards Him.
The purpose of sending the Hady to the Sacred House is to grant abundance and show kindness to the neighbours of the Sacred House and its visitors among the poor and destitute. This is one of the best deeds to getting closer to Allah Almighty. This is because charity and charitable spending are among the best forms of worship, especially, if they are carried out in the Sacred City and upon those who have isolated themselves purely for the worship of Allah therein and those residing in its vicinity.
This hadeeth shows the legality of sending the sacrificial animal to the Haram by who is unable to go to perform Hajj or ‘Umrah..

Narrated ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her): I used to make the garlands for (the Hady of) the Prophet ﷺ and he would garland the sheep (with them) and would stay with his family without assuming the Ihraam.

He ﷺhas practically demonstrated as a Sunnah act that when a person himself does not go to the Haram to perform Hajj, then he should send a sacrificial animal to venerate the place and be more accommodative towards the poor of Makkah.
In this hadeeth, the Mother of the Believers, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports that she used to make garlands for the Prophet ﷺ. Al-Qalaaid (garlands): they are collars that are placed aaround the necks of the sacrificial animals – that is made by interlacing some of its strings with others. The Prophet ﷺwould place these garlands and collars aaround the necks of the sheep as he would place them aaround the necks of other animals such as the camels and cows, and then the Messenger of Allah ﷺwould send them to the Sacred Vicinity (a-Haram), while he would remain with his family in Al-Madeenah without entering into the state of Ihraam. He ﷺwould not make upon himself anything prohibited among the prohibited things of Ihraam such as applying perfume or engaging in sexual intercourse with his wives, or anything prohibited upon the one assuming the state of Ihraam.
This hadeeth shows the legality of garlanding the sheep from the sacrificial animals.

Commentary : Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has venerated the Sacred House. His Prophet ﷺas well has done likewise. He ﷺhas practically demonstrated as a Sunnah act that when a person himself does not go to the Haram to perform Hajj, then he should send a sacrificial animal to venerate the place and be more accommodative towards the poor of Makkah.
In this hadeeth, the Mother of the Believers, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports that she prepared the garlands for the Hady of the Prophet ﷺ, i.e. she made collars which are placed aaround the necks of the sacrificial animals by interlacing some of the strings with other strings. The word “Hady” is a noun used for the animal that is offered for sacrifice among the camels, cows, sheep, or goats – to the Sacred Vicinity (Al-Haram) in order to be slaughtered there as a means of getting closer to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, and as a way of showing gratitude to Him.
Her statement, “Before he entered into the state of Ihraam,” has the possibility to mean, before the year in which he entered into the state of Ihraam for Hajj; he ﷺsent the sacrificial animal with Aboo Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) in the ninth year. It is also possible that she informed in this narration about his state in the year of his entering into his state of Ihraam. That is the tenth year of the Hijrah.
This hadeeth highlights the legality of putting a garland aaround the neck of the sacrificial animal and letting the wife prepare the garlands for the sacrificial animals.
It highlights the legality of sending the sacrificial animal to the Haram by one who is unable to perform Hajj or ‘Umrah and does not travel with it..

In this hadeeth, the Mother of the Believers, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports that she prepared the garlands for the Hady of the Prophet ﷺwhich are placed aaround the necks of the sacrificial animals by interlacing some of the strings with others. She explained that the garlands were made of wool, and mostly, the kind of garlands that are placed on a sacrificial animal is coloured, so that they can be more visible as a sign. The word “Hady” is a noun used for the animal that is offered for sacrifice among the camels, cows, sheep, or goats – to the Sacred Vicinity (al-Haram) in order to be slaughtered there as means of getting closer to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, and as a way of showing gratitude to Him.
This hadeeth shows the legality of putting a garland aaround the neck of the sacrificial animal and letting one’s own wife prepare the garlands for the sacrificial animals.
It also points to the legality of making garlands of wool..

Narrated ‘Alee (may Allah be pleased with him): Allah’s Messenger ﷺ ordered me to give in charity the skin and the coverings of the animals [Budan] which I had slaughtered.
.

Commentary : The Messenger of Allah ﷺhas explained the rites of Hajj through his statements and actions. He has taught us that getting closer to Allah through offering the sacrificial animal and other good deeds ought to be offered solely for the sake of Allah, kind-heartedly and good-heartedly, venerating the bounties of Allah upon a Muslim and upon what He has helped fulfil in terms of the rites of Hajj.
In this hadeeth, ‘Alee ibn Abee Taalib (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺcommanded him during the Farewell Hajj - this is the Hajj which the Messenger of Allah ﷺperformed in the tenth year of the Hijrah- to give the drapes and the skins of the sacrificial animals in charity which he has offered and driven to the Haram after they are killed and slaughtered. The purpose of this was to emphasise that a sacrificial animal in its entirety is for Allah and so that the poor as well as the needy benefit from all its parts. The Arabic word “Jilaal” [used in the hadeeth and means covering] is the plural of the word “Jull” and that is what an animal adorns of the drape, garland, and so on. The word “Budan”, which is mentioned in the hadeeth, are the animals that are offered to the Sacred House among the four-legged animals, namely, the camels, cows, or specifically the camels, in other to get closer thereby to Allah.
The reason to evidently mention the coverings and the skins is that sometimes it is presumed that the distribution and handing out are only related to the meats only. Hence, this played as an emphasis that every part that can potentially be of benefit as part of the slaughtered animal will be incorporated in the notion that it is for Allah and that is charitable and that is not specific to meats only.
This hadeeth shows the legality of appointing someone else to carry out all the actions concerning the sacrificial animals such as their slaughtering, the distribution of their meat and so on.
It highlights that one may not benefit from or sell anything which has been taken out for the sake of Allah, even if it is a small part thereof.
It also shows the legality of placing coverings over the backs of the sacrificial animals and thereafter giving them in charity to the poor, just as their skins and meat are given in charity..

1709

Narrated `’Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her): “Five days before the end of Thoo al-Qa’daa, we set out from Al-Madeenah in the company of Allah’s Messenger ﷺ with the intention of performing Hajj only. When we approached Makkah, Allah’s Messenger ﷺ ordered those who had no Hady with them to finish their lhraam after performing Tawaaf around the Ka’bah and the ritual walking between Al-Safaa and Al-Marwah.” `’Aaishah added, “On the Day of Nahr (slaughtering of sacrifice) beef was brought to us. I asked, ‘What is this?' The reply was, 'Allah's Messenger ﷺhas slaughtered (sacrifices) on behalf of his wives.'"
.

Commentary : There are three kinds of Hajj. First, the Tamattu’, and that is that the pilgrim assumes the Ihraam of ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj – they are Shawwaal, Thoo al-Qa’dah and Thoo al-Hijjah – and after completing the rites of ‘Umrah he exits his Ihraam. Then, he again enters into the state of Ihraam for Hajj during the same year. Second, the Qiraan, which entails that the pilgrims enter into the state of Ihraam both for Hajj and ‘Umrah. The third is the Ifraad, which means that the pilgrim enters into the state of Ihraam for Hajj only.
In this hadeeth, ‘Aaishah, the Mother of the Believers, reports that the Prophet ﷺleft Al-Madeenah in the tenth year of the Hijrah to perform his Farewell Hajj. There were only five nights left from the month of Thoo al-Qa’dah. When they left Al-Madeenah, they had intended to perform an Ifraad-kind of Hajj and it did not occur in their minds that they could perform ‘Umrah along with it. The reason for that was that the Companions did not know that ‘Umrah can be performed in the months of Hajj, as this was widespread a belief in the time of ignorance before Islam. When they got closer to Makkah, the Prophet ﷺcommanded those who did not have sacrificial animals with them to perform Tamattu’ by performing ‘Umrah first. Accordingly, they first performed the Tawaaf of the Ka’bah then performed the ritual walking between the Safaa and al-Marwah. And lastly, they had a haircut to exit from their Ihraam. Afterwards, they entered the state of Ihraam for Hajj when the rites of Hajj commence on the Day of Tarwiyah, on the eighth of Thoo al-Hijjah.
The Prophet ﷺperformed the Qiraan-type of Hajj by combining the ‘Umrah with the Hajj whilst maintaining the same Ihraam without exiting it; that was because he took the sacrificial animal along with him from Thoo al-Hulayfah. When it was the Day of Nahr (Day of Sacrifice) – the tenth of Thoo al-Hijjah – the cow meat was brought to the wives of the Prophet ﷺ. Thereupon, the Mother of the Believers, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her), asked about it, and the people informed her that the Prophet ﷺslaughtered the sacrificial animals, namely, cows, on behalf of his wives.
This hadeeth reveals the permissibility of suspending the Ifraad-kind of Hajj and assuming the Tamattu’-type of Hajj and ‘Umrah for the one who has not taken a sacrificial animal along with him.
It shows the legality of appointing an agent for slaughtering the sacrificial animal..

1710

Narrated Naafi’ that `Abdullah (ibn `Umar) used to slaughter (his sacrifice) at the Minhar. ('Ubaydullah, a sub-narrator said, "The Manhar of Allah's Messenger ﷺ.")
.

Commentary : The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) were endowed with love for the Messenger of Allah ﷺand keenness to follow his example and footsteps in all his movements and stillness. The staunchest and most keen of all of them was ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him).
In this hadeeth, Naafi’, the freed slave of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was so eager to slaughter his sacrificial animal at the place where the Prophet ﷺslaughtered his at Minaa near al-Jamarah as-Sughraa, and that is the first stone pillar next to Masjid al-Khayf situated in Minaa. It is worth noting that Minaa in all its entirety is a place for sacrifice as it is narrated in Saheeh Muslim by Jaabir (may Allah be pleased with him) who reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺstated, “I have slaughtered here, while the whole of Minaa is a place of sacrifice, hence, sacrifice [the animals] at your dwellings,” however, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to ascertain the place where the Messenger of Allah ﷺsacrificed and was persistent in slaughtering his sacrifice there too. This was his habit in all places and contexts that had a connection with the Prophet ﷺ. .

1711

Narrated Naafi’: Ibn `Umar used to send his Hady from Jam' (to Mina) in the last part of the night with the pilgrims amongst whom there were free men and slaves, till it was taken into the Manhar (slaughtering place) of the Prophet ﷺ..

Commentary : The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) were bestowed with love for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and eagerness to follow his example and footsteps in all his movements and stillness. The staunchest and most eager of them all was ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him).
In this hadeeth, Naafi’, the freed slave of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar, reports that ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to send his sacrificial animals – these are the four-legged animals among the sheep, goats, camels or cows which are taken to be slaughtered in hajj from “Jam’” - at last part of the night. “Jam’” is the other name for Muzadalifah, which is the name for the place where the pilgrims encamp after pouring out from ‘Arafaat. They spend the night of the tenth of Thoo al-Hijjah there. It is there where the Sacred Monument (Al-Mash’ar al-Haraam) lies, and it is about 12 km away from ‘Arafah. It is next to the monument of Minaa. Al-Muzdalifah is called “Jam’” because the two prayers, Maghrib and ‘Ishaa are combined therein. It was said: It is described as thus because of the action of its dwellers, as they assemble there and turn towards Allah, meaning, they get closer to Allah by halting there.
He (may Allah be pleased with him) would drive the sacrificial animals until they reached the place where the Prophet ﷺsacrificed his animals in Minaa near al-Jamarah as-Sughraa and that is the first stone pillar just after Masjid al-Khayf that is situated in Minaa. Also, it is worth noting that Minaa in all its entirety is a place for sacrifice as it is narrated in Saheeh Muslim by Jaabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺstated, “I have slaughtered here, while the whole of Minaa is a place of sacrifice, hence, sacrifice [the animals] at your dwellings,” however, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to ascertain the place where the Messenger of Allah ﷺsacrificed and was persistent in slaughtering his sacrifice there too. This was his habit in all places and contexts that had a connection with the Prophet ﷺ.
He (may Allah be pleased with him) would send his sacrificial animals with the pilgrims consisting of free people and slaves. There is no stipulation anywhere about sending the sacrificial animals with free people instead of slaves.
This hadeeth shows the legality for a slave to perform Hajj..

1713

Narrated Ziyaad ibn Jubayr: I saw Ibn `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) passing by a man who had made his Badana (sacrificial animal) sit to slaughter it. Ibn `Umar said, "Slaughter it while it is standing with one leg tied up as is the tradition of Muhammad ﷺ."
.

Commentary : The Hajj is the fifth pillar among the pillars of Islam, which the Messenger of Allah ﷺhas explained its rituals both by his statements and actions. The noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), thereafter, transmitted them just as they learned them from the Prophet ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, the Taabi’ee, Ziyaad ibn Jubayr reports that he saw ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) who happened to pass by a man who had made his badanah sit and lie down – a badanah happens to be specifically from the camels – on the ground at Minaa, in order to slaughter it, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) instructed him to keep it standing with its left leg ties, then to slaughter it while it is standing. He explained that this is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Nahr (slaughtering by stabbing) of camels consists of stabbing them with a dagger or something of that nature at the cavity between their bottom parts of necks and chests. It is said: the wisdom of specifying the camels with the act of Nahr while they are standing is due to their long necks. This is because if a camel was slaughtered at the area closer to its head, then the blood flowing from the heart to the area of slaughter would be at a greater distance, which would not assist the letting out of all the blood easily, contrary to the act of Nahr at the last part of the neck. It closes the distance and helps the heart with forcing the whole blood out. As for the cows and sheep, the normal slaughtering technique is suitable for them.
This hadeeth highlights that one should teach the ignorant person and avoid remaining silent at seeing an act contradictory to the Sunnah, even if that act may be permissible.
The statement of the Companion, “Part of the Sunnah is doing this in this manner,” takes the ruling of elevating that [act] to the Prophet ﷺ. .

1715

Narrated Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet ﷺ offered the Thuhr prayer, four units at Al-Madeenah and two units of `Asr prayer at Thoo al-Hulayfah. [According to another narration: “Then the Prophet ﷺ passed the night there till dawn and then he offered the Fajr prayer and mounted his Mount. And when it arrived at Al-Baydaa', he ﷺassumed Ihraam for both `Umrah and Hajj."
.

Commentary : The Hajj is the fifth pillar among the pillars of Islam. The Messenger of Allah ﷺhas explained the rituals of Hajj both by his statements and actions. The noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), thereafter, transmitted them just as they learned them from the Prophet ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah ﷺperformed the four units of the Thuhr prayer while he was in Al-Madeenah on the day he travelled to perform the Farewell Hajj. That was in the tenth year of the Hijrah. He ﷺprayed the full prayer and did not shorten it as he was a resident at that point of time. Then, he ﷺleft and performed two units for the ‘Asr prayer when he reached Thoo al-Hulayfah , i.e. he ﷺshortened the ‘Asr prayer there. Thoo al-Hulayfah is the Meeqaat of the people of Al-Madeenah, which is now known as Aabaar ‘Alee, a well-known location right at the onset of the road of Al-Madeenah that leads 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.
Then, the Prophet ﷺspent the night at Thoo al-Hulayfah until he performed the Fajr prayer therein. Then, he mounted his she-camel, and when it stood up and halted with him at al-Baydaa’, the Prophet ﷺproclaimed the Ihraam of ‘Umrah and Hajj. He said, “Labbayka, both for the ‘Umrah and Hajj,” as it is mentioned in the narration of Saheeh Muslim. The Baydaa’ is a specific location between Makkah and Al-Madeenah, a place above the two mountains of Thoo al-Hulayfah when ascending from the valley, which is just a mile away from Thoo al-Hulayfah. It is reported in the two Saheeh Books that the Prophet ﷺproclaimed for Hajj after he had performed prayers in the mosque. This entails that the proclamation happened more than once.
This hadeeth shows the legality of shortening the prayers while travelling, and the legality of performing the Qiraan-type of Hajj..

1716

Narrated ‘Alee (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet ﷺ sent me to supervise the (slaughtering of) Budn (Hady camels) and ordered me to distribute their meat, and then he ordered me to distribute their covering sheets and skins. 'Alee added in another narration, "The Prophet ﷺ ordered me to supervise the slaughtering (of the Budn) and not to give anything (of their bodies) to the butcher as wages for slaughtering."
.

Commentary : The Hajj is the fifth pillar of Islam, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺexplained its rituals with his words and actions, and the honourable Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted them to us as they learned them from him ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, ‘Alee ibn Abee Taalib (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺsent him to oversee the slaughtering of the sacrificial camels and their distribution among the poor and needy. In the narration of Bukhaaree, it reads, “The Prophet ﷺdrove for sacrifice a hundred badanah. In Saheeh Muslim, from the hadeeth of Jaabir (may Allah be pleased with him), it is mentioned, “The Prophet slaughtered sixty-three animals with his hands, then, he appointed ‘Alee to take over the responsibility and he slaughtered the rest, meaning, what was left of them, made him is a participant in the sacrificial animals towards the place of slaughter.”
The Arabic word “Budn” is the plural of badanah and it is from the four-legged cattle which is offered and sent to the Sacred House in order to draw closer to Allah Almighty, and it is of camels exclusively, and it was said: “Budn” is used to denote camels and cows.
The Prophet ﷺcommanded him to divide its meat among the needy, so he divided it, then he commanded him to divide its drapes and its skins, so he divided them too. The word “Jilaal” is whatever an animal adorns such as a drape or a garland or something of that like. This is so that nothing of it will come back to him since he gave it for the sake of Allah. He also instructed him not to give the butcher anything of it as a payment for his work on it. Giving the butcher something of it in exchange for what he did and his slaughtering entails being a sale, and it is not permissible to sell any of its meat. However, there is nothing wrong with giving it as a charity, gift, or something above his right.
This hadeeth is that it demonstrates delegating and making someone an agent to carry out the actions pertaining to the sacrificial animals such as slaughtering it and dividing its meat, and so on.
It highlights that it is not allowed to sell what is intended for the sake of Allah Almighty, even if it is a small part of it..

1719

Narrated Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him): 'We never ate the meat of the Budn for more than three days of Minaa. Later, the Prophet ﷺ gave us permission by saying: 'Eat and take (meat) with you. So, we ate (some) and took (some) with us.’" I asked `Ataa', "Did Jaabir say (that they went on eating the meat) till they reached Al-Madeenah?" `Ataa' replied, "No."
.

Commentary : Islamic law has taken the condition of society and its needs into consideration. It has built a coherent Muslim society where all its members act in unity such that whenever a calamity befalls anyone of them, everyone stands shoulder-to-shoulder to assist in removing it from him.
In this hadeeth, Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that they did not use to eat from the meat of their sacrificial animals above the three days of Minaa, which is known as the Days of Tashreeq, namely the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth of Thoo al-Hijjah. The animals mentioned in the hadeeth refer to the cows and camels which they took with them to the Haram to offer as a sacrifice to draw nearer to Allah. He (may Allah be pleased with him) explained that anytime over this period would be to distribute the meat among the poor, to meet their need and comfort them in their plight and extend a helping hand to them. However, after that, the Prophet ﷺpermitted them to eat from it, and to take from it as a provision in their journey.
The Taabi’ee, ‘Abdul Malik ibn ‘Abd al‘Azeez ibn Jurayj asked ‘Ataa’ ibn Abee Rabaah – the sub-narrator of the hadeeth from Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) -, “Did Jaabir say, ‘Until we came to Al-Madeenah?’” ‘Ataa’ replied, “No.” However, in Saheeh Muslim, it is “Yes” instead of “No.” The reconciliation between these two replies is by taking the fact into account that he had forgotten, thus he said, “No.” Thereafter, he remembered, and he replied, “Yes.” Or the meaning of his statement, “No,” is not the negation of the ruling, rather its meaning is that Jaabir did not elucidate the continuation of this from them until they reached Al-Madeenah. Based on this, the meaning of his statement in one narration will be, “We would take the meat of the sacrificed animals as a provision to Al-Madeenah, , i.e. when heading back to Al-Madeenah, which does not denote that the meat remained with them until they reached Al-Madeenah.
This hadeeth has been used as proof of establishing abrogation within the compendium of the Sunnah. This is an example of an act of Sunnah abrogating the other act of Sunnah. It was said: that this is not an act of abrogation, rather, there was a previous prohibition due to a legal reason, which when the latter disappeared, the ruling of prohibition became inapplicable. The legal reason for prohibiting hoarding initially then allowing it thereafter was the people’s need and a great number of poor. When the legal reason that obligated this ceased, he ﷺcommanded them to eat it and save (hoard). What Muslim has narrated in his Saheeh from ‘Abdullah ibn Waaqid reinforces this understanding, wherein he says, “The Messenger of Allah ﷺprohibited from consuming the meat of sacrificed animals after three days …,” it also contains, “… He ﷺstated, ‘I only prohibited you due to the horde who marched [to here] steadily; now, you may eat, hoard and give it away in charity.” The Arabic word “Daaffah” means a horde of weak Bedouins who came in to receive aid.
This hadeeth shows that a ruling rotates with its legal reason in terms of its existence and inexistence.
It also contains refutation against the one who perceives that it is not allowed to hoard food for the next day and that one who saves anything even if little is not entitled to receive the attribution of the friendship of Allah and that one who hoards has misperceived Allah, the Upholder..

1726

Narrated Naafi’: Ibn ‘Umar said: Allah's Messenger ﷺ got his head shaved after performing his Hajj.
.

Commentary : The Hajj is the fifth pillar of Islam, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺexplained its rituals with his words and actions, and the honourable Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted them to us.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah ﷺshaved his hair in the Farewell Hajj, which happened in the tenth year of the Hijrah.
Shaving means removing all the hair on the head completely and it is only allowed for men. It is one of the symbols of Hajj. It is the act by which a person in Ihraam exits from his Ihraam and it happens on the Day of Sacrifice, on the tenth day of Thoo al-Hijjah.
Shortening the hair is performed in lieu of shaving the head for women, as well as all those who do not wish to shave the head among men. Nonetheless, shaving the head is better for the men because it is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺand because Allah gave it precedence in mention in His Book. He stated, {You will surely enter al-Masjid al-Haraam (The Sacred Mosque) in safety with your heads shaved or [hair] shortened.} [Quran 48:27]. This act (shaving the head) is more effective in worship, is more revealing of the devotion and humility and more demonstrates the sincerity of the intention. As for the one who shortens his hair, there is something left upon him by which he beautifies himself, unlike the one who gets his head shaved off. The latter feels that he has left all that for the sake of Allah. It also contains the meaning of complete submission to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic.
.

1727

Narrated ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): Allah's Messenger ﷺ said, "O Allah! Be merciful to those who have their head shaved." The people said, "O Allah's Messenger ﷺ! And (invoke Allah for) those who get their hair cut short." The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Allah! Be merciful to those who have their heads shaved." The people said, "O Allah's Messenger ﷺ! And those who get their hair cut short." The Prophet ﷺ said (the third time), "And to those who get their hair cut short."
Al-Layth reported that Naafi` said that the Prophet ﷺ had said once or twice, "O Allah! Be merciful to those who get their heads shaved," and ‘Ubaydallah reported that Naafi’ said: on the fourth time he added, "And to those who have their hair cut short."
.

Commentary : The Messenger of Allah ﷺhas explained the rituals of Hajj with his statements and actions. Thereafter, the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted them to us in full detail, so that the people are fully and evidently acquainted about their worship.
In this hadeeth, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺrepeated the supplication for those who shave their hair off in their rituals of Hajj that Allah bestows His mercy upon them. This happened during the Farewell Hajj in the tenth year of the Hijrah or during the year of al-Hudaibiyah or during both occasions.
The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked him to supplicate for those who shorten their hair just as he supplicates for those who shave their hair. He, thereafter, responded to them by adding [in his supplication], “And also those who shorten their hair,” either during the second, third or fourth time. Shaving the head entails the complete removal of hair on the head, whereas shortening means cutting parts of the hair on the head. This statement is indicative of the legality of both the acts, but however, shaving the head is better than shortening the hair for the men. This is because it is that act of the Messenger of Allah and it is because Allah mentioned it first in His Book. He Almighty stated, {You will surely enter the Sacred Mosque in safety with your heads shaved or [hair] shortened.} [Quran 48:27]. This act [shaving the head] is more effective in terms of worship, is more revealing of the devotion and humility and more demonstrates the truthfulness of the intention. As for the one who shortens his hair, there is something left upon him by which he beautifies himself, unlike the one who gets his head shaved off. The latter feels that he has left all that for the sake of Allah. It also contains the meaning of complete dedication to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic.
Shaving the head is prescribed only for men while women are ordered to cut from their hair, so they exit their Ihraam.
The acts of shaving and cutting the hair are from the rites of Hajj with which the pilgrim exits his Ihraam. It takes place after throwing the Jamrah of ‘Aqabah, after slaughtering his Hady, if he had it, and before the Tawaaf of Ifaadah. It takes place in ‘Umarh after completing the ritual walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to ask Allah to invoke His mercy upon the living just like it is allowed to do it for the dead..

1729

Narrated ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet ﷺ and some of his Companions got their heads shaved and some others got their hair cut short.
.

Commentary : The Hajj is the fifth pillar of Islam, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺexplained its rituals with his words and actions, and the honourable Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted them to us.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺand a group of his Companions shaved their heads, while some others shortened their hair and did not shave their heads. This happened in the Farewell Hajj in the tenth year of the Hijrah. This is indicative of the legality of both actions, however, shaving the head is better than shortening the hair for the men. This is because it is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺand it is because Allah placed first in His Book. He Almighty stated, “You will surely enter al-Masjid al-Haraam (The Sacred Mosque) in safety with your heads shaved or [hair] shortened.” [Quran 48:27]. This act [shaving the head] is more effective in terms of worship, is more revealing of the devotion and humility and more demonstrates the truthfulness of the intention. As for the one who shortens his hair, there is something left upon him by which he beautifies himself, unlike the one who gets his head shaved off. The latter feels that he has left all that for the sake of Allah. It also contains the meaning of complete dedication to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic.
Shaving the head is prescribed only for men while women are ordered to cut from their hair, so they exit their Ihraam.
The acts of shaving and cutting the hair are from the rites of Hajj with which the pilgrim exits his Ihraam. It takes place after throwing the Jamrah of ‘Aqabah, after slaughtering his Hady, if he had it, and before the Tawaaf of Ifaadah. It takes place in ‘Umarh after completing the ritual walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah..

Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh reported: We used to engage in Mut'ah in return for a handful of dates and flour during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and Abu Bakr until 'Umar forbade it in the case of 'Amr ibn Hurayth..

Commentary : The Shar'i marriage is a system that establishes a united family, preserves each party's rights, and highlights human dignity. Mut'ah marriage, on the other hand, damages society and causes loss for women. A man may like a woman and marry her for a specific period in return for a certain compensation. This is no more than fulfilling lust, and it leads to many evils; that's why it was more appropriate to forbid it.
In this Hadīth, Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh (may Allah be pleased with him) informs that they used to marry women for enjoyment and fulfilling lust, and this was permissible and then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared it unlawful. This kind of relationship was so lowly that they would agree to "a handful of dates and flour" as a dowry or gift from the man to the woman, which is a small amount, equivalent to a meal. Jābir (may Allah be pleased with him) informed that they continued to do so while the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was living among them. Then, when the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, they engaged in Mut'ah marriage during the caliphate of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) until 'Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) forbade it during his caliphate, in the case of the Companion' Amr ibn Hurayth. 'Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) married a woman by Mut'ah marriage during the reign of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and she got pregnant from him. The statement of Jābir and the action of 'Amr (may Allah be pleased with both of them) are taken to indicate that the Prophet's prohibition of such marriage did not reach them.
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) permitted the Mut'ah marriage in the beginning and then forbade it later during the battle of Khyber until the Day of Judgment, and he declared it unlawful during the Farewell Hajj, as narrated by Al-Bukhāri, Muslim, and others.
The Hadīth indicates that Mut‘ah marriage is forbidden.
It warns against doing anything forbidden by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
It also points out that the ruler can force specific rulings on the people to serve the interests of society..

Sabrah al-Juhani reported: I married a woman from Banu' Āmir by Mut'ah marriage during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) for two red Burds (cloaks). Then, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade us from Mut'ah..

Commentary : Islam has established the Shar‘i marriage system on the most just standard to preserve progeny and honor, and it has forbidden all means of enjoying women that were widespread in Jāhiliyyah and which do not protect their rights. It began to legislate that gradually so that people could adopt it rightly.
In this Hadīth, Sabrah ibn Ma‘bad al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that he married women by Mut‘ah marriage during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). Mut‘ah is one of the kinds of marriage in which a man enjoys a woman in return for compensation agreed by them and for a specified period, and the marriage ends with the elapse of that period. Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him) informed that he married a woman from Banu ‘Āmir by Mut‘ah marriage and gave her two red Burds, a reference to her dowry. Burd: a striped garment opened from the front and placed on the shoulders like a cloak, yet it is smaller than it. A person can wrap it around himself or let it hang down. Then, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade Muslims from Mut‘ah marriage. Another version by Muslim points out that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it in the year of the Conquest of Makkah.
The Mut'ah marriage was known during the early stages of Islam, and the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did not forbid them from it during their travels, given their need for it. However, he forbade them from it during their stay and residence in their countries. The ruling of the Mut'ah marriage passed through various phases, as the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade them from it more than once. Then, he ordered them to engage in it at various times until he made it permanently forbidden. Forbidding the Mut'ah marriage was reported in many narrations, which point out that the prohibition was during the Conquest of Makkah, and this is the most famous opinion, or during the battle of Awtās, or the battle of Khaybar, or during the Prophet's last days in the Farewell Hajj. It was a permanent prohibition, not a temporary one, thus leaving no room for any difference of opinion among the jurists and the leading scholars of the Ummah. Only some of the Shiites hold a different opinion, and their opinion does not count..

Ar-Rabī‘ ibn Sabrah reported that his father joined battle along with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) during the Conquest of Makkah. He said: We stayed in it for fifteen; thirty including days and nights. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) permitted us to engage in Mut‘ah marriage to women. A man from my people and I went out. I surpassed him in beauty, and he was close to ugliness. Each of us had a Burd (cloak). My Burd was old, while the Burd of my cousin was new and fresh. When we reached the south of Makkah - or its north - we came across a girl like a young smart long-necked she-camel. We said: "Would you agree that one of us engage in Mut‘ah marriage with you?" She said: "What would you give?" Each of us spread out his Burd, and she began to look at the two men and my companion saw her looking on her side. He said: "The Burd of this is old, and my Burd is new and fresh." She said: "The Burd of this is not bad," three times or twice. Then, I engaged in Mut‘ah marriage with her, and I did not come out of it until the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared it unlawful. [In a version]: He added: She said: Is this valid? And he said: The Burd of this is old and worn-out..

Commentary : Islam has established the Shar‘i marriage system on the best methods for preserving progeny and honor, and it has forbidden the ways of enjoying women, which were prevalent during Jāhiliyyah and did not protect their rights. It was legislated gradually so people could adopt it rightly and not turn away all at once.
In this Hadīth, Sabrah ibn Ma‘bad (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that he joined the battle along with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) in the Conquest of Makkah, in 8 A.H., and they stayed there for fifteen nights along with fifteen days. Thus, the total of nights and days was thirty. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) gave them permission to engage in Mut'ah marriage with women in return for compensation they would agree for a specific period, and it would come to an end with the elapse of this time. So, Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him) went out along with a man from his people, who was his cousin, as will be mentioned in this narration. Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him) was more good-looking than him, and the other man was close to ugliness, i.e., unpleasant look and bad appearance. Each of them had a Burd he wanted to give to the woman he would marry by Mut‘ah. Burd: a striped garment opened from the front and placed on the shoulders like a cloak, yet it is smaller than it. A person can wrap it around himself or let it hang down. The garment of Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him) was old and worn out, whereas the Burd of his cousin was new. They kept searching until they reached the south of Makkah or its north. There, they came across a girl like "a young smart long-necked she-camel", i.e., she had a long, straight neck and shapely figure. They presented themselves to her so that she could choose one of them to marry her by Mut'ah. In another version, she asked them: "Is this valid?" She meant the validity of this kind of marriage as to whether it is lawful and permissible to enjoy a woman for a certain period of time! He replied to her in the affirmative, as narrated in the Mustakhraj of Abu ‘Awānah. She asked them: What would you offer in return for this marriage? Thereupon, each of them spread out his Burd. She began to look at the two men and compare between them. Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: And my companion was looking at her while she was looking on her side. When he saw her in this state, he said: The Burd of this is old, and my Burd is new and fresh, seeking to attract her to himself and keep her away from Sabrah. And in a version, he said: "The Burd of this is old and worn-out." She said: The Burd of this young man is not bad - three times or twice - as if she was reconsidering the matter and thinking of choosing the more youthful of the two men, regardless of how good the Burd was. She chose Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him), and he married her by Mut‘ah. Sabrah (may Allah be pleased with him) informed that he did not leave her until the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared the Mut‘ah marriage unlawful. In another version by Muslim: "I stayed with her for three. Then, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever has any of these women with whom he engaged in Mut‘ah marriage should let her go."
The Hadīth points out that Mut‘ah marriage was permanently prohibited after it had been permissible.
It affirms the existence of abrogation in the Sunnah..

1406

‘Urwah ibn az-Zubayr reported: 'Abdullāh ibn az-Zubayr stood up in Makkah and said: "Allah has made blind the hearts of some people as He has deprived them of eyesight that they give a Fatwa in favor of Mut'ah", alluding to a certain man. He called him and said: "You are uncouth and coarse. By my life, Mut'ah was practiced during the lifetime of the leader of the pious", referring to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). Thereupon, Ibn Az-Zubayr said to him: "Do it yourself, and by Allah, if you do that, I will stone you with your stones.".

Commentary : Islam came to preserve honor, as the preservation of honor is one of the five necessities that all divine legislations came to preserve, and these are: religion, life, honor, mind, and wealth.
This Hadīth points out that the issue of Mut‘ah marriage was subject to disagreement among some of the Companions. During the days of his caliphate in the Hejaz, ‘Abdullāh ibn az-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up to deliver a speech in Makkah, and he said: "Allah has made the hearts of some people blind", i.e., to the truth "as He has deprived them of eyesight", making them unable to see that they give a Fatwa to the people permitting Mut'ah marriage, which is a contract entailing enjoyment of a woman for a specific period in return for a certain dowry. By this statement of his, Ibn az-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) was "alluding to a certain man", namely 'Abdullāh ibn' Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him), who lost his eyesight in the latter part of his life. Thereupon, Ibn' Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) - who was attending the sermon - called him and said: "You are uncouth and coarse", i.e., you are simple-minded, rude, and harsh. Then, he said: "By my life, Mut‘ah was practiced during the lifetime of the leader of the pious", referring to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). This is an oath he took over this matter. Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) had his personal interpretation of the texts that prohibit Mut‘ah marriage, as he maintained that it is permissible in case of necessity or the like. So, Ibn az-Zubayr said to him: "Do it yourselves, and by Allah, if you do that, I will stone you with your stones" i.e., Mut‘ah marriage is unlawful. So, if you do it after that, you will become an adulterer and you will be punished by stoning to death.
Indeed, Ibn' Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) spoke the truth when he said that it was practiced during the lifetime of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). But Ibn Az-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) was in the right, for the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) passed away while the prohibition of Mut'ah was the latter of the two relevant rulings.
The Hadīth shows that Mut‘ah marriage is prohibited.
It also indicates that the ruler can talk to the scholars regarding their Fatwas and choose for the people what serves the best interests of society..

1406

Sabrah al-Juhani reported: that he was with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "O people, I had permitted you to engage in Mut‘ah with women, and indeed Allah has forbidden that until the Day of Judgment. So, he who has any of these women should let her go, and do not take back anything you have given them.".

Commentary : The Mut‘ah marriage is a fixed-term marriage, with the word 'tamattu‘' (enjoyment) verbally stated, in return for an amount of money. In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says: "O people, I had permitted you to engage in Mut‘ah with women" i.e., in the beginning, but the matter has finally been decided now. He clarified to the people that Allah, Exalted be He, forbade the Mut‘ah marriage altogether till the Day of Judgment.
The Mut'ah marriage was known during the early stages of Islam, and the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did not forbid them from it during their travels, given their need for it. However, he forbade them from it during their stay and residence in their countries. The ruling of the Mut‘ah marriage passed through various phases; the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade them from it more than once; then, he ordered them to engage in it at various times until he made it permanently forbidden. Forbidding the Mut'ah marriage was reported in many narrations, which point out that the prohibition was during the Conquest of Makkah in the eighth Hijri year, and this is the most famous opinion, or during the battle of Awtās, also in the eighth Hijri year, or during the battle of Khaybar in the seventh Hijri year, or the Prophet's last days in the Farewell Hajj. It was a permanent prohibition, not a temporary one. So, the right thing is that Mut‘ah marriage was abrogated more than once. It was permitted during the battle of Khaybar and then forbidden therein, and then it was permitted in the year of the Conquest of Makkah, which is the year of the battle of Awtās, and then it was permanently forbidden. No difference of opinion remains among the jurists and the scholars of the Ummah over this issue, and none disagrees with that except some Shiites, whose view does not count.
Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) commanded those engaged in Mut'ah marriage to separate from the women married to them, for they were not lawful to them. He also commanded that the man should not take anything of what he gave to the woman in return for enjoying her, even if the separation took place before the appointed period, as she deserved that by copulation with her..

1406

Khālid ibn al-Muhājir ibn Sayfullāh reported: that while he was sitting in the company of a man, a man came to him and asked for a Fatwa on Mut‘ah. He enjoined him to engage in it. Thereupon, Ibn Abi ‘Amrah al-Ansāri said to him: 'Wait.' He said: "What is it?! By Allah, it was practiced during the lifetime of the leader of the pious." Ibn Abi ‘Amrah said: "It was a dispensation in the early days of Islam for one who was driven to it by necessity, just like carrion, blood, and pork. Then Allah finally established the religion and prohibited it altogether.".

Commentary : When Islam came, it was keen to preserve the five necessities that all divine legislations came to preserve, and these are: religion, life, honor, mind, and wealth. It began to be legislated for society gradually so that people could adopt it rightly and not forsake it all at once.
In this Hadīth, the noble Tābi‘i Khālid ibn al-Muhājir ibn Sayfullāh informs that while he was sitting with a man - who was ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him), according to the Mustakhraj of Abu ‘Awānah - a man came to him and sought a Fatwa from him about the ruling on marrying women by Mut‘ah marriage for a specific period in return for compensation agreed between them; Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him), permitted him to marry women by Mut‘ah marriage. Thereupon, the Tābi‘i Ibn Abi ‘Amrah al-Ansāri - Muhammad ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn Hārithah - said to Ibn ‘Abbās: 'Wait!' i.e., stop and do not rush. Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "What is it?!" i.e., what is the matter that could prevent me from giving this Fatwa?! It seems he was criticizing him. By this, Ibn' Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) wanted to reject Ibn Abi' Amrah's disapproval of his Fatwa. Then, he swore by Allah that it was practiced during the lifetime of the leader of the pious, referring to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). The meaning: How could you criticize me while the people practiced it during the lifetime of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), at his command?! In reply, Ibn Abi ‘Amrah said that Mut‘ah was a dispensation for Muslims in the early days of Islam for those driven to it by necessity, just like a person driven by necessity to eat carrion, blood, and pork, if he is on the verge of death due to severe hunger. Then Allah completed the religion, perfected His commands and prohibitions, and permanently forbade marrying women by Mut‘ah marriage. Indeed, Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) spoke the truth when he swore that it was practiced during the lifetime of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). But Ibn Abi ‘Amrah was right, for the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) passed away while the prohibition of Mut‘ah was the latter of the two relevant rulings.
The Hadīth demonstrates that some of the Shar‘i rulings were superseded (abrogated).
It indicates that taking an oath for emphasis is legitimate.
It also shows that a great scholar may be unaware of some Shar‘i issues..

‘Uthmān ibn ‘Affān reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Muhrim (one in the state of Ihrām) must neither marry, nor give someone in marriage, nor get engaged.".

Commentary : Performing Hajj to Allah's Sacred House - for whoever finds a way thereto - is one of the pillars of Islam and one of its great rituals. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) taught us its pillars and how to make Ihrām (ritual state of consecration) for it. He clarified what the Muhrim is allowed to do and what he is not allowed to do.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says: "The Muhrim must neither marry," i.e., the Muhrim - who intends by his Ihrām Hajj, ‘Umrah, or both - must not contract marriage for himself and must not marry a woman. "Nor give someone in marriage," i.e., or give someone in marriage through guardianship or proxy. Since he himself is forbidden from getting married during the period of Ihrām; therefore, he is not to give someone in marriage during this period. Also, he should not "get engaged," as this involves hinting at a proposal of marriage. The secret behind such a prohibition is the fact that the Muhrim has engaged in an act of worship that takes up most of his time, so he must not be occupied with anything else that is not consistent with the state of such an act of worship. Allah has forbidden Rafath - which is sexual intercourse with women and what leads to it - while performing Hajj and its relevant acts, for marriage during the state of Ihrām calls one to commit Rafath. The purpose of this journey is to be devoted to Allah and to be occupied only with remembering Him, calling upon Allah loudly, declaring Allah's oneness, and making Dhikr and nothing else..

1409

Nubayh ibn Wahb reported: that ‘Umar ibn ‘Ubaydullāh ibn Ma‘mar intended to marry his son Talhah to the daughter of Shayba ibn Jubayr during Hajj. Abān ibn ‘Uthmān was the leader of pilgrims at that time. He sent someone to Abān saying: "I intend to marry Talhah ibn ‘Umar, and I like that you attend that." In reply, Abān said to him: "I find you to be a thickheaded Iraqi. I heard ‘Uthmān ibn ‘Affān say: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'A Muhrim should not marry.'".

Commentary : In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Nubayh ibn Wahb relates that the Tābi‘i ‘Umar ibn ‘Ubaydullāh wanted to marry his son Talhah to the daughter of Shaybah ibn Jubayr while they were in a state of Ihrām during Hajj. So, they wanted the Tābi‘i Abān ibn ‘Uthmān ibn ‘Affān to attend the contract. Abān, who was the leader of the Hajj convoy at the time, said to him: "I find you to be a thickheaded Iraqi" i.e., ignorant of the Sunnah. In some versions: 'a Bedouin', and a Bedouin is someone who lives in the desert. It is said: 'Iraqi' here is erroneous, unless he knew that the doctrine of the people of Kufa at the time permitted a Muhrim to marry, in which case 'Iraqi' would be correct, and it would mean: You are adopting their doctrine. Thickheaded denotes roughness along with ignorance.
Then, ‘Abān told them that he heard ‘Uthmān ibn ‘Affān (may Allah be pleased with him) say: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A Muhrim should not marry" i.e., a Muhrim should not get married. In a version in the Sahīh Muslim Collection: "And he should not marry others off," i.e., a man should not give a woman in marriage either as her guardian or representative. This is because a Muhrim is too busy to engage in marriage contracts, as this would necessarily distract his mind and make him unable to perform worship perfectly, for it involves proposing, asking, inviting, and meeting..

1411

Maymūnah bint al-Hārith reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) married her when he was Halāl (outside the state of Ihrām). He said: She was my maternal aunt and the maternal aunt of Ibn ‘Abbās..

Commentary : Hajj is the fifth pillar of Islam. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) clarified the rituals of Hajj in his words and deeds, which were reported by the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) just as they had learned them from the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). During Hajj, some of what is permissible becomes forbidden for the one who assumes Ihrām.
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Yazīd ibn al-Asamm reports that his maternal aunt, Maymūnah bint al-Hārith (may Allah be pleased with her), wife of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) married her when he was Halāl, i.e., was not a Muhrim (one in the state of Ihrām). In Abu Dāwūd's narration, Maymūnah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) married me when we were both Halāl (outside the state of Ihrām) at Sarif." The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) contracted marriage with her on his way to Makkah to make ‘Umrah al-Qadā’ (deferred ‘Umrah) in 7 AH, before assuming Ihrām. Their marriage became known after he had assumed Ihrām. Then, he consummated marriage with her when he was outside the state of Ihrām on the way back to Madīnah in an area called Sarif, which is almost 10 kilometers away from Makkah, and it was said: 16 kilometers away, and there are other opinions as well.
Then, Yazīd reported that Maymūnah (may Allah be pleased with her) was his maternal aunt and the maternal aunt of Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) in reference to Ibn ‘Abbas's mistake in what he reported about the Prophet's marrying Maymūnah while being a Muhrim. However, Maymūnah (may Allah be pleased with her) certainly knew herself better than Ibn ‘Abbās. Moreover, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Muhrim (one in the state of Ihrām) must neither marry, nor give someone in marriage, nor get engaged." [Narrated by Muslim].

1424

Abu Hurayrah reported: As I was in the company of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), a man came to him and told him that he married a woman from the Ansār. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Did you look at her?" He said: 'No.' He said: "Go and look at her, for indeed, there is something in the eyes of the Ansār.".

Commentary : Islam established the Shar‘i marriage system to preserve progeny and honor and it is keen on the continuity of cordiality and love between the two spouses and legislated means to this end from the beginning of engagement so that it would be more likely for them to continue their life together.
In this Hadīth, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) informs that he was present with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) when a man came and informed him that he proposed marriage to a woman from the Ansār - the people of Madīnah - and wanted to marry her. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: "Did you look at her?" This is an instruction urging the man to look at the woman before proposing marriage, as this would encourage him to marry her or cause him to refrain from her. The man replied that he did not look at her. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) ordered him to go and look at her. In a Hadīth narrated by Abu Dāwūd and reported by Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh (may Allah be pleased with him): "When one of you asks a woman in marriage; if he is able to look at what will induce him to marry her, let him do so." This points out that a man should look at the woman by himself if he can, so as to see what encourages him to like and marry her.
Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) clarified the reason behind his instruction to look at her, saying: "for indeed there is something in the eyes of the Ansār, " i.e., some disliked blueness, smallness, or the like. This signals that a man should usually look at the face and hands, as her beauty can be recognized from the face, and the tenderness of her body can be known through her hands. The looking should happen before betrothal, lest it will be hard for her if he decides to retract his proposal, in case he does not like her.
The Prophet's instruction serves a great interest. There may be something in the woman that would badly affect the continuity of their relationship after marriage, and he can identify it by looking at her, so he will leave her before the consummation of marriage; this would be lighter, simpler, and easier than consummating the marriage and divorcing her after that.
The Hadīth indicates that a man should look at his fiancée before marrying her.
It points out the excellence of the pure Shariah and its perfect guidelines, as it takes into consideration the interests of people by which their livelihood can be set in order in this world and the Hereafter without undergoing regret and sorrow over what was missed..

1426

Abu Salamah ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān reported: I asked ‘Ā’ishah: "How much was the Sadāq (dowry) paid by the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)?" She said: "His dowry for his wives was twelve ’Uqiyyahs and one Nashsh. Do you know what the Nashsh is?" I said: "No." She said: "It is a half ’Uqiyyah, so this equals five hundred dirhams, and it was the dowry that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) paid to his wives.".

Commentary : Sadāq is the dowry and the money paid to the woman when getting married. Allah Almighty has made it a right that is due to the woman. Allah Almighty says: {Give women their marriage dowries graciously.} [Surat an-Nisā’: 4]
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Abu Salamah ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān reports that he asked the Mother of the Believers, ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her): How much was the dowry paid by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to his wives? She told him that it was twelve ’Uqiyyahs and one Nashsh. The ’Uqiyyah is forty dirhams, and the dirham refers to a coin made of pure silver, and one ’Uqiyyah is equal to 28.35 grams. The Nashsh is half a Uqiyyah. So, the dowry paid by the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to his wives was five hundred dirhams. It means that this is what the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) mostly paid to his wives, simply because Al-Bukhāri narrated that the dowry of Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) was emancipating her, and likewise the dowry of Juwayriyah bint al-Hārith was emancipating her. Moreover, An-Najāshi paid four thousand dirhams to Umm Habībah (may Allah be pleased with her) when he gave her in marriage to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). And no mention was made about the dowry of Zaynab bint Jahsh. So, the dowry does not have to be something specific; rather, it depends on everybody's ability and capability..

1428

Anas reported: When the waiting period of Zaynab was over, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to Zayd: "Make mention of me to her." He said: "Zayd went off until he came to her while she was fermenting her flour." He said: When I saw her, I felt her greatness in my chest, so much that I could not look at her; that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) made mention of her. So, I turned my back toward her and turned upon my heels. I said: "O Zaynab, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) has sent a message making mention of you." She said: "I will not do anything until I consult my Lord." So, she stood at her place of worship, and the Qur’an was revealed. Then the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) came and entered her place without permission. He said: I recall when the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) served us bread and meat at midday. Then, the people went out, and some men remained talking in the house after the meal. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) went out, and I followed him. He began to go to his wives' rooms and greet them, and they would say: "O Messenger of Allah, how did you find your wife?" He said: I do not know whether I told him that the people had come out or he told me. He said: He moved on until he entered the house, and I went to enter with him. Thereupon, he placed the curtain between me and him, and the Hijab was sent down. He said: The people were preached by the preaching they received. He added in another version: {O you who believe, do not enter the houses of the Prophet unless you are given permission for a meal; not so early as to wait for the meal to be prepared... but Allah is not shy of [telling] the truth.} [Surat al-Ahzāb: 53].

Commentary : Zaynab bint Jahsh, the Mother of the Believers (may Allah be pleased with her), was the daughter of Umaymah bint 'Abdul-Muttalib, the paternal aunt of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) had married Zaynab off to his freed slave Zayd ibn Hārithah (may Allah be pleased with him), whom the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) had adopted before Allah prohibited adoption. However, Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with her) saw herself as superior to Zayd, and they used to have such disputes between spouses until Zayd divorced her.
In this Hadīth, Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) informs that when the divorce waiting period of Zaynab bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her) came to an end, after Zayd ibn Hārithah (may Allah be pleased with him) divorced her; and the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) advised Zayd regarding his wife before he divorced her, as revealed in the verse that reads: {And [remember, O Prophet] when you were saying to the one who was favored by Allah and favored by you: "Keep your wife and fear Allah."} [Surat al-Ahzāb: 37] And in the other part of the verse, Allah Almighty said to His Prophet: {and you were fearing people, while it was more fitting that you should fear Allah. When Zayd no longer desired her, We gave her to you in marriage.} Allah Almighty informed His Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) that Zayd would divorce Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with both of them) and that she would be his wife after Zayd divorced her. He, however, concealed that within himself, fearing that the hypocrites might defame him and spread rumors to the effect that he forbade that a man should marry the wife of his son, and he married the wife of Zayd, who used to be called Zayd ibn Muhammad before that was forbidden and adoption was abolished.
Then Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) informed that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him): "make mention of me to her" i.e., go and propose marriage to her on my behalf and mention me in her presence and say that I want to propose to her. Zayd left and reached her and saw her "fermenting her flour" i.e., preparing her dough for baking. Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) informed that when his sight fell on her, he found it hard to look at her, as the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) wanted to propose to her. He treated her like the mothers of the believers and averted his gaze from her and turned his back toward her. He stepped backward and stood some distance away from her. This happened before Hijab was prescribed in the Qur’an.
Then Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) told her that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sent him to propose marriage to her on his behalf. Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with her) told him that she would not give any response until she consulted her Lord and waited to see what Allah would do regarding her matter. So, she stood at her praying place in the house to offer the Istikhārah (consultation) prayer and "the Qur’an was revealed" i.e., the verses in Surat al-Ahzāb were revealed. Then the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) came to Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with her) and entered her place without seeking permission, as she became his wife after Allah Almighty married her off to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) from above seven heavens.
Then Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said that he remembered when the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) had served them bread and meat in the wedding banquet for his marriage to Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with her). All this happened when it was midday and the heat of the sun became intense. Those who ate from the banquet went out and there remained some people who engaged in talking within the house of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) came out and left them in the house, talking. Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) came out after him because he was his servant and would always accompany him. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) went to the houses of his wives to check on them and learn about their conditions, and the Prophet's wives would ask him: "O Messenger of Allah, how did you find your wife?" In a version narrated by Al-Bukhāri, it was ‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) who asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), saying: "How did you find your wife? May Allah bless you." It is said: She said that by way of jesting. But it is more likely that she intended supplication for the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to be blessed in his family and to be rest assured about them. In a version narrated by Muslim, the reply of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was: 'Fine.'
Then Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) informed that he could not remember: Was he the one who told the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) that the people, who had lingered and engaged in talking after the banquet, did leave, or it was the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) who told him about that? When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) became sure that they had come out of the house, he quickly went and entered the house of Zaynab. Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) intended to enter with him, as usual, but the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) put a curtain between the two of them; this was because the verses on Hijab in Surat al-Ahzāb were revealed: {O you who believe, do not enter the houses of the Prophet unless you are given permission for a meal; not so early as to wait for the meal to be prepared. But if you are invited, then enter, and when you have eaten, then disperse, without lingering for conversation. Such [behavior] causes annoyance to the Prophet; he is too shy to express it to you, but Allah is not shy of [telling] the truth.} [Surat al-Ahzāb: 53]
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The people were preached by the preaching they received", i.e., they complied with the command of Allah, the Glorified and Exalted, and the statement of His Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), and they came to know the error they committed as they stayed for long in the house of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and engaged in conversation.
The Hadīth points out the merit of Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with her).
It indicates that a person should entrust his affairs to Allah Almighty in all his conditions.
It demonstrates the modesty of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
It urges performance of the Istikhārah prayer before undertaking any matter.
It also urges checking on one's family to rest assured about them..

Abu Hurayrah reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If any of you is invited, let him accept the invitation. If he is fasting, let him pray (for the inviter); if he is not fasting, let him eat.".

Commentary : A manifestation of tolerance of Islam is taking into consideration solidarity and affection between people. Hence, it encourages responding to the inviter and deems it one of the rights that the Muslim owes to his brother, all for the sake of having a society where the spirit of love, brotherhood, solidarity, and coherence prevails.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs us that if one is invited for food - whether a banquet or something else - by his Muslim brother, he must accept the invitation and go. If one who received the food invitation happens to be fasting, whether it be a voluntary fast, a missed fast, or a vow; since the inviter would not have invited him if it had been an obligatory fast during Ramadān, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) guides the fasting person to clarify his status in another version of Muslim, saying: "Let him say: I am fasting" as an apology to the inviter and a way of informing him that he is fasting and cannot eat his food. "Let him pray," i.e., let him pray for the house dwellers to be granted goodness and blessings and let him engage in supplicating for them. Let him also inform his Muslim brother, who invited him, that his abstention is only because of fasting and not because he does not want to eat his food. It was the Arabs' habit to abstain from eating the food of the one towards whom they held evil intentions. If the person invited is not fasting, then let him eat from the food.
The Hadīth signifies a command to accept the invitation for food.
It also encourages supplicating for the food providers (the host)..

Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Verily, one of the most important trusts in the sight of Allah on the Day of Judgment is a man who is intimate with his wife, and she is intimate with him, and then he divulges her secret." Ibn Numayr said: [Another version reads]: Verily, the most important..

Commentary : Having a healthy marital relationship and seeking love and mercy are among the means of protecting this bond and this pledge that Allah has made solemn and has described as being solemn given its strength and significance.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says that the most serious breach, betrayal, and violation of trust, and the gravest in terms of punishment in the sight of Allah on the Day of Judgment, the day of recompense, is the man's betrayal to his wife. "a man who is intimate with his wife, and she is intimate with him" is an indirect reference to sexual intercourse and physical contact between the spouses, i.e., everything related to marital secrets and what each spouse entrusts to the other. Then after this, the man divulges her secret, i.e., the hidden physical defects. It could also mean describing what occurs between the spouses regarding the enjoyment and what the woman says or does during the intercourse. In fact, this is a severe threat and a warning for one who reveals his spouse's secret. The advice is addressed to both spouses along with the warning against divulging each other's secrets. Thus, the man must not reveal her secret and vice versa. However, he mentioned one of them - the husband - to refer to the other, or he made no mention of the wife divulging her husband's secret because the woman, in principle, tends to conceal and hide whatever is indecent and she rarely does this because of her bashfulness, unlike the man who is expected to do this..

1439

Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh reported: A man asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), saying: "I have a slave-girl and I practice coitus interruptus with her." The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, this would not prevent something willed by Allah." He said: The man came and said: "O Messenger of Allah, the slave-girl I mentioned to you has become pregnant." Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am the servant and Messenger of Allah.".

Commentary : All the destinies of created beings lie in the Hand of Allah alone. He is the Knower of the unseen things. A Muslim should rely upon Allah, pursue the proper means, and then entrust his affairs to Allah Almighty.
In this Hadīth, Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that a man came to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and asked him about coitus interruptus and informed that he had a slave-girl with whom he practiced coitus interruptus lest she would get pregnant; so, is it permissible for him to practice coitus interruptus with her or not? Coitus interruptus is practiced by removing the male sex organ out of the woman's vulva before ejaculation, and the man ejaculates outside the vulva, to prevent pregnancy. Replying to him, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, this would not prevent something willed by Allah." The meaning: Indeed, if Allah Almighty predestined the creation of a soul, it would surely be created; and that the fluid and semen may outrun you, and you cannot stop it, and your keenness in this regard would not avail you. The semen could quickly come out without the man practicing coitus interruptus feeling it to execute what Allah predestined. There is no soul determined in the knowledge of Allah Almighty that it will be born except that it will exist in reality, whether coitus interruptus is practiced or not. Likewise, ejaculation may happen inside, and no pregnancy takes place. So, coitus interruptus and ejaculation inside are alike in terms of the fact that pregnancy can only happen by Allah's predestination.
Then, after some time, that man came to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and spoke to him about this slave-girl with whom he had practiced coitus interruptus and told him that she got pregnant. Thereupon, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am the servant and Messenger of Allah" i.e., what I say to you is true; so, adopt it and be certain of it, for indeed it will surely come to pass.
The Hadīth shows the keenness of the Companions in learning the matters of their religion from the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)..
