Hadith
1584
Narrated ‘Aaishah (raa): I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) whether the round wall (near Ka`bah) was part of the Ka`bah. The Prophet (ﷺ) replied in the affirmative. I further said, "What is wrong with them, why have they not included it in the building of the Ka`bah?" He (ﷺ) said, "This is because your people (Quraysh) ran short of money (so they could not include it inside the building of Ka`bah)?" I asked, "What about its gate? Why is it so high?" He (ﷺ) replied, "Your people did this so as to admit into it whomever they liked and prevent whomever they liked. Were your people not close to the Pre-Islamic Period of ignorance (i.e., they have recently embraced Islam) and were I not afraid that they would deny it, surely I would have included the (area of the) wall inside the building of the Ka`bah and I would have lowered its gate to the level of the ground."
.

Commentary : The Hijr of Ismaa’eel is the curved construction round the Ka’bah, facing the Black Stone and al-Rukn al-Yamaanee.  It is in the form of a semi-circle adjoining the two corners, al-Rukn al-Shaamee and al-Rukn al-‘Iraaqee. The Prophet refrained from touching or kissing the other two corners, the Black Stone and al-Rukn al-Yamaanee, because they were not built according to the correct structure of the House.
In this hadeeth ‘Aaishah (raa) relates that she asked the Prophet ﷺabout the Ka’bah and whether the Hijr of Ismaa’eel is part of it or not. He ﷺexplained to her that it is part of the Ka’bah due to the foundation of its wall, but what happened was that Quraysh could not afford to include it and build the Ka’bah on all the foundations of Ibraaheem (peace be upon him) when they rebuilt the Ka’bah due to lack of funds. The Prophet ﷺadded that had Quraysh not been new to Islam and fearing they may leave Islam because of it, he ﷺwould have restored it to the foundations of Prophet Ibraaheem (peace be upon him), and he ﷺwould have built it anew on all its foundations, included the Hijr of Ismaa’eel, and lowered its gate to the level of the ground. This is because they made the gate so high to have control who would enter it i.e., they have power to allow whoever they like and forbid whoever they wish. It is reported in the authentic hadeeth that he ﷺsaid: “I would have placed two doors for it, one door for people to enter and the other door for them to exit.” [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim].
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is that it serves as evidence for perpetrating the lesser of two evils to repel the greater of them. This is because the harm done from making no changes to the construction of the Ka’bah is lesser than the dissension that may be caused by this and having some Muslims turning away from Islam.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to deal tactfully with people in matters of religion - other than the obligatory acts - by leaving and removing from the people that which they deny (i.e., things they view as the norm and not aware of its opposite).
It also shows that people may not be blocked from the House..

1586
Narrated ‘Aaishah (raa): The Prophet (ﷺ) told her, “O ‘Aaishah! Were it not for the fact that your people being in the closest era to pre-Islam, I would have commanded that the House be demolished, and I would have incorporated into it what was left out of it. I would have made its (door) in level with the ground and I would have made two doors for it, an eastern door and a western door. I would have taken it to the foundations of Ibraaheem (peace be upon him).  (One of the narrators said:) “This is what motivated Ibn al-Zubayr (ra) to knock it down.  Yazeed said: "I saw Ibn Al-Zubayr (ra) when he knocked it down and rebuilt it and included part of the Hijr in it. And I saw the foundation of Ibraaheem (peace be upon him) stones like the humps of camels.  Jareer says, “I asked him, ‘Where is its place?’ He replied, ‘I will show you now.’  I entered al-Hijr with him and he pointed towards a place and said, ‘There it is.’ Jareer says, “I estimated the distance from al-Hijr to be six-cubit foot or something similar to it.”
.

Commentary : The description of the construction of Ibraaheem (peace be upon him) of the House was that it was curved around the two corners of al-Rukn ash-Shaamee and al-Rukn al-‘Iraaqee; thus, the Hijr of Ismaa’eel was a part of it, and it had two corners, which are the two Yamaanee corners. But when Quraysh built it in the pre-Islamic era, they made four corners for it, and placed the Hijr of Ismaa’eel behind it, as they wanted to perfectly complete the circumambulation of the Ka’bah, and it is in the form of a semi-circle adjoining the two corners, al-Rukn al-Shaamee and al-Rukn al-‘Iraaqee.  Hence, al-Hijr is part of the Ka’bah.

In this hadeeth, ‘Aaishah raa reports that the Prophet ﷺ  informed her that were Quraysh not closer in time to disbelief (i.e., they are new to Islam) and were there no fear of the hearts denying the act, then he would have commanded to demolish the Ka’bah and would have rebuilt in upon the original foundations of Ibraaheem (peace be upon him) and would have inserted into it what was left out of it and bring the floor closer to the ground, and would have placed two doors for it, an eastern door and a western door, so people could enter from one of them and exit from the other. This hadeeth is the evidence upon which Ibn al-Zubayr (ra) relied to demolish the Ka’bah and rebuild it during his reign on Hijaaz.

Yazeed ibn Roomaan, at-Taabee’ee, one of the sub-narrators of this hadeeth, mentions that he witnessed Ibn al-Zubayr (ra) demolishing the Ka’bah as he undertook the task of demolishing it until he razed it to the ground and when he rebuilt it. This event happened in the 65th year of Hijrah. He inserted in it five-cubit foot of Hijr Ismaa’eel. Yazeed explains that he saw the foundations of Ibraaheem and described that they were made of stones that looked like the humps of the camels.
Jareer bin Haazim asked Yazeed ibn Roomaan to inform him about the place of the foundations?’ He replied that he would show it to him; so, he entered entered al-Hijr with him and then pointed to a place of it and said, ‘Here it is.’ Jareer reported that he estimated the distance referred to from the Hijr as six-cubit foot or so. It is reported in Saheeh Muslim from the narration of the Taabi’ee ‘Ataa’ ibn Abee Rabaah that when Al-Hajjaaj killed Ibn al-Zubayr (ra), he demolished the building, and returned it to the foundations of Quraysh and it is still, until now, upon those foundations.
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is that it serves as evidence for perpetrating the lesser of two evils to repel the greater of them. This is because the harm done from making no changes to the construction of the Ka’bah is lesser than the dissension that may be caused by this and having some Muslims turning away from Islam.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to deal tactfully with people in matters of religion - other than the obligatory acts - by leaving and removing from the people that which they deny (i.e., things they view as the norm and not aware of its opposite).
It shows that the ruler should strive to establish the religion of Islam and the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ.

Narrated Ibn ‘Abbaas ra: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said on the day of the conquest of Makkah, “Verily, Allah made this city sacred; its thorns will not to be cut, its game will not be repulsed, and the things dropped will be picked up only by one who makes a public announcement of it.”.

Commentary : Makkah is the most beloved land to Allah, Most high, which He has venerated it in the hearts of His believing servants. He legislated exclusive injunctions for Makkah and protected it from the evil of the disbelievers. It is one of the best places on earth, hence, the conquest of Makkah, which took place in the eighth year of the Hijrah, was a great conquest for Islam and Muslims.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbaas ra reports that the Prophet ﷺproclaimed on the conquest of Makkah that Allah has made Makkah sacred i.e., no fighting on its land is allowed. The only exemption was given to the Prophet ﷺto conquer it and eradicate disbelief from the holy land. Thereafter, its sanctity was reactivated as reported in the authentic hadeeths of Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim. Part of the sanctity of this land is that: neither its thorns nor its trees will be cut or broken, nor its game will be disturbed from its place, let alone hunting it, and any lost property found there will only be picked up by one who intends to announce about it and looks after it for its owner, thereafter, returns it to him when he shows up.. This is known in religion as Luqatah, which refers to the lost property which a person may find on the road whose owner is unknown.
One of the benefits that can be concluded from this hadeeth is learning about the strong emphasis on the sanctity of Makkah and the strict warning against committing any forbidden act in it..

1588
Narrated Usaamah ibn Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him): I said: “O Allah's Messenger! Which house of yours will you choose to stay in Makkah?” He (ﷺ) replied, "Has ‘Aqeel left any property or houses in Makkah?” It happened that ‘Aqeel along with Taalib had inherited the property of Aboo Taalib, whereas Ja’far and ‘Alee (may Allah be pleased with them) did not inherit anything as they were Muslims and the other two were disbelievers. ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say, “A believer may not inherit (anything) from a disbeliever.” Ibn Shihaab, (a sub-narrator) said, “They (`Umar and others) derived the above verdict from Allah's Statement: {Verily! those who believed and emigrated and strove with their life And property in Allah's Cause, And those who helped (the emigrants), and gave them their places to live in, these are (all) allies to one another.} (Quran 8.72)”
.

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺhas set himself as a perfect example for us in all acts of worship, dealing, and transactions, including the application of the provisions of inheritance between a Muslim and a disbeliever. He ﷺclarified that Muslims cannot inherit their disbelieving relatives.
In this hadeeth, Usaamah ibn Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that he asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)at the conquest of Makkah in the eighth year of the Hijrah about which of his homes in Makkah that he left before his emigration to al-Madeenah. The Prophet ﷺexplained to him that he is not entitled to any of the properties that belonged to Aboo Taalib or any other of his relatives in Makkah because a believer cannot inherit an infidel.
The narrator – perhaps Usaamah (may Allah be pleased with him) – has explained the meaning of his statement. He mentioned that when Aboo Taalib, the uncle of the Prophet ﷺdied, his two sons inherited his wealth: ‘Aqeel and Taalib, and they both took over all his property comprising of several houses, while Ja’far and ‘Alee, the two believing men did not inherit from him. If they were the heirs, then the Prophet ﷺwould have stayed in their houses as they would be as if they are his properties because he knew that they (Ja’far and ‘Alee) preferred him to themselves.
‘Umar bin Al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say, “A believer cannot inherit from a disbeliever.” i.e., he made this statement based on the words of the Prophet ﷺwho confirmed that ‘Alee and Ja’far (may Allah be pleased with them) did not inherit from Abu Talib.
Ibn Shihaab al-Zuhree commented on this by saying, “They used to adopt this view based on their interpretation of the following Statement of Allah, {Those who believe and have emigrated and struggled with their wealth and themselves in the path of Allah and those who sheltered and helped, those, some of whom are allies of others.} [Quran 8:72]. They interpreted alliance in this ayah to mean the entitlement to inheritance. The ayah goes to read: {But those who believed and did not emigrate - for you there is no support of them until they emigrate. And if they seek help from you for the religion, then you must help, except against a people between yourselves and whom is a treaty. And Allah is Seeing of what you do.And those who disbelieved are allies of one another. If you do not do so [i.e., ally yourselves with other believers], there will be fitnah [i.e., disbelief and oppression] on earth and great corruption. [Quran 8:72-73]. The meaning of this is that those who believed in Allah but did not emigrate from the lands of disbelief to the lands of Islam, you do not have to - O believers - help them, and protect them, until they emigrate in the path of Allah.  However, if the disbelievers wronged them, then they demanded help from you; then, aid them against their enemy, unless there is a covenant between you and the enemy which they have not broken. Allah is watchful of the acts that you do, nothing of your deeds is hidden from Him and He will reward you for them. As for those who disbelieve, disbelief brings them all together and thus aid each other. With that said, no believer may not ally with them, and if the Muslims do not ally with the believers and hate the disbelievers, then there will be strife for the believers, wherein they will not find anyone from their brethren who can help them in religion. Even worse, a great corruption on earth will ensue by preventing people from the path of Allah. 
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is learning that it is permissible to allow the houses and property of Makkah to be inherited.

Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): “Allah’s Messenger ﷺstated when he came to Makkah, “Our encampment tomorrow, Allah-willing, will be at Khayf Banee Kinaanah where they (the pagans) took an oath between themselves on disbelief.””
.

Commentary : The Farewell Hajj was in the tenth year of the Hijrah, and during which the Prophet ﷺexplained all the rulings pertaining to Hajj and ‘Umrah, including that which is recommended acts and considered from their etiquettes.
In this hadeeth, AbooHurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺinformed them after he had returned from Mina after completing the rite of throwing the stoning and he headed to the Sacred House for the farewell tawaaf round the Ka’bah that he ﷺwill halt at the Khayf of Banee Kinaanah, known today as al-Muhassab, which is located at the beginning part of the flat land of Makkah, and is now situated in the outskirts of Makkah in the so-called Qasr al-Saqqaaf. This place was where the disbelievers of Quraysh allied with each other before on disbelief, and they allied with each other in their disassociation from Banee Haashim and Banee al-Mutallib, and rejecting any peace treaty with them, and that they will exile the Prophet ﷺ, Banee Haashim, and Banee al-Muttalib from Makkah and drive them to this valley. This valley is Khayf Banee Kinaanah, and they wrote between them the famous sheet, wherein they penned all different kinds of falsehood, breaking of ties of kinship and disbelief. However, Allah, Exalted be He, sent termites which ate all the points of agreement therein about disbelief, severing ties of kinship, and falsehood, and left intact that which was about the remembrance of Allah. His saying: “Allah willing,” is to seek Allah’s blessings and comply with the command of Allah in the Quran.
The scholars differed as to the reason for the encampment of the Prophet ﷺin this place. It was said: It was a halting that was a following part of the rituals, and so it is a Sunnah, which is the view of ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with her). And it was said: It is not a Sunnah, based on the hadeeth in Sunan Aboo Daawood - whose origin is found in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree – where ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺhalted at al-Muhassab only so that it is facilitating to come out, and it is not a Sunnah; hence, whoever wills can halt at it, and whoever wills can avoid encamping at it.” With that said, it shows that his halting at al-Abtah was because it would be easier and faster for him to depart from there to al-Madeenah, and so that those who are slow and those who have valid excuses would be equal, so that they spend the night there and depart at the last part of the night, and their departure be together towards al-Madeenah..

1590
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (ra): The Prophet ﷺstated the next day, the day of ritual slaughtering while he was at Mina, “We are halting tomorrow at Khayf Bani Kinaanah where they mutually took an oath on disbelief, he meant thereby al-Muhassab.” That is because Quraysh and Kinaanah both allied with each other against Bani Haashim and Bani Abdul al-Muttalib – or Bani al-Muttalib – that they will not intermarry with them and will not mutually do business with them until they surrender the Prophet ﷺto them..

Commentary : The polytheists of Makkah did harm the Prophet ﷺand those who believed in him with all different kinds of harm to the extent that the tribe of the Prophet ﷺand his immediate family members were not spared of their harms, including those who embraced Islam amongst them and those who had not embraced it.  Quraysh and Kinaanah penned a sheet wherein they agreed to oppose and harm Banee Haashim and Banee Abdul Muttalib i.e., Quraysh and Kinaanah agreed that they will not marry a woman from Banee Haashim and Banee ‘Abd al-Muttalib, and that they will not marry them a woman from among them, that they will not trade with them or buy from them and will not intermingle with them and there will be nothing at all between them.  
This hadeeth shows that the Prophet ﷺpointed out the place where they mutually took an oath, i.e., mutually agreed therein to harm the Prophet ﷺand to hold tight to disbelief.  The Prophet ﷺtold his Companions on the Day of Slaughtering in Hajj, “We are halting tomorrow at Khayf Banee Kinaanah.”  Khayf means a valley, and it refers to the valley of al-Muhassab, which is located between Makkah and Mina. i.e., it is the beginning area of the plains of Makkah, which is now found at the outskirts of Makkah, and it is called Qasr as-Saqqaaf. 
The Farewell Hajj was in the tenth year of the Hijrah, and during which the Prophet ﷺexplained all the rulings pertaining to Hajj and ‘Umrah, including that which is recommended acts and considered from their etiquettes.
In this hadeeth, Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺinformed them after he had returned from Mina after completing the rite of throwing the stoning and he headed to the Sacred House for the farewell tawaaf round the Ka’bah that he ﷺwill halt at the Khayf of Banee Kinaanah, known today as al-Muhassab, which is located at the beginning part of the flat land of Makkah, and is now situated in the outskirts of Makkah in the so-called Qasr al-Saqqaaf. This place was where the disbelievers of Quraysh allied with each other before on disbelief, and they allied with each other in their disassociation from Banee Haashim and Banee al-Mutallib, and rejecting any peace treaty with them, and that they will exile the Prophet ﷺ, Banee Haashim, and Banee al-Muttalib from Makkah and drive them to this valley. This valley is Khayf Banee Kinaanah, and they wrote between them the famous sheet, wherein they penned all different kinds of falsehood, breaking of ties of kinship and disbelief.  However, Allah, Exalted be He, sent termites which ate all the points of agreement therein about disbelief, severing ties of kinship, and falsehood, and left intact that which was about the remembrance of Allah. His saying: “Allah willing,” is to seek Allah’s blessings and comply with the command of Allah in the Quran.
The scholars differed as to the reason for the encampment of the Prophet ﷺin this place. It was said: It was a halting that was a following part of the rituals, and so it is a Sunnah, which is the view of ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with her). And it was said: It is not a Sunnah, based on the hadeeth in Sunan Aboo Daawood - whose origin is found in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree – where ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺhalted at al-Muhassab only so that it is facilitating to come out, and it is not a Sunnah; hence, whoever wills can halt at it, and whoever wills can avoid encamping at it.” With that said, it shows that his halting at al-Abtah was because it would be easier and faster for him to depart from there to al-Madeenah, and so that those who are slow and those who have valid excuses would be equal, so that they spend the night there and depart at the last part of the night, and their departure be together towards al-Madeenah.

1591
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “The Ka’bah will be demolished by a man with thin legs from Abyssinia.”.

Commentary : In this hadeeth the Prophet ﷺinfo that that there will be trials towards the end of time and that the sanctity of sacred places will be violated.
In this hadeeth, the Prophet ﷺ - who is the truthful and whose truthfulness is attested – informs us that a man with two thin legs from Abyssinia will be the one who will demolish the Ka’bah near the time of the Hour. The Abyssinians are black people from an African race. The word used to describe that his two legs will be thin is a belittling word for shank, meaning, one with two weak shanks. The belittling word is for humiliating purposes. It means it will be a person who is weak, and slim with no status. As if it is intended to say, “The sacredness of this glorified House will be violated by this lowlife despicable ugly person! It is reported in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree on the authority of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet ﷺstated, “As if I can envisage him to be black, hen-toed, who will remove brick by brick.”
Abyssinians will be the ones who will excavate the treasure of the Ka’bah, which is buried under the Ka’bah. It was said that it is a treasure created in it. It was also said that it is what the guardians of the Ka’bah used to accumulate of the gifts, and then they used place under the Ka’bah.
This hadeeth does not contradict with the ayah, {Have We not established for them a safe haven ˹in Makkah˺.} (Quran 28: 57) because its meaning is that: it is a safe haven until the closest time to the Day of Judgment and the ruination of earth at a time when there will be no Muslim on the face of earth. It is said that the story of the man with two thin legs is an exception or that Allah has made it a safe sanctuary given how it is often the case, because there were incidents where the sanctuary of Makkah was violated like the case of Ibn al-Zubayr and the story of al-Qaraamitah and the likes. It was said that the meaning of making it a safe sanctuary is in fact the command to ensure it is so i.e., it is incumbent upon the Muslims to grant safety to people and not to show aggression to anyone therein.
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is learning about the prophesy of the Prophet ﷺregarding what will happen towards the end of time, which is one of the signs of his prophethood. It is part of the unseen matters concerning which it is obligatory to believe and affirm. Likewise, we are required to believe and affirm all the unseen events that they are proven to be authentic from the Prophet ﷺ..

1592
Narrated ‘Aaishah (raa): The people used to fast on 'Ashura (the tenth day of the month of Muharram) before the fasting of Ramadan was made obligatory. And on that day the Ka`bah used to be covered with a cover. When Allah made the fasting of the month of Ramadan compulsory, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Whoever wishes to fast (on the day of 'Aashooraa') may do so; and whoever wishes to leave it can do so.".

Commentary : The Jews used to fast on the day of ‘Aashooraa’, which is the tenth day of the month of Muharram, as a form of venerating the day in which Allah saved Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) from the clasps of Pharoah and of thanking Allah for this favour. The Prophet ﷺrecommended that Muslims fast the day, albeit with opposing the way Jews fast it by prescribing an additional fast of a day before it. The fast of the day of ‘Aashooraa’ underwent different phases of legislation. It is reported on the authority of ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that people used to fast on the day of ‘Aashooraa’ before Allah made the fasting of Ramadan obligatory upon them, and when He made the fasting of the month of Ramadan obligatory upon them in the second year of Hijrah, the Prophet ﷺmade it optional i.e., people have the choice either to fast it or forgo it. It has been mentioned concerning the virtue of its fast, that it expiates the sins of the year that has passed. It is reported in Saheeh Muslim that ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) related that the Sunnah is to fast the nineth day with it, for the purpose of opposing the Jews.”
During the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ, the ‘Ka’bah would be shrouded on this day i.e., they would shroud its stone bricks and wall with veils and fabrics. Quraysh was the one responsible for the task of shrouding it during that period because the Prophet ﷺthen was in al-Madeenah and he ﷺonly took control of the Ka’bah after the conquest of Makkah in the eighth year of the Hijrah. The Prophet ﷺconfirmed the practice of shrouding it on this day, which has been the practice of Muslims until today, despite the different timings for it. Nowadays, it is shrouded during the season of Hajj straight after the pilgrims making their way to the mount of ‘Arafaat. Its shrouding is among the exhibits of reverence and showing honour for the House of Allah.
The statement of ‘Aaishah in the hadeeth that ‘They used to fast on ‘Aashooraa before Ramadan was made obligatory,’ benefits the possibility that fasting the day of ‘Aashooraa’ was compulsory and obligatory in nature, before Ramadan became mandatory, then the injunction was abrogated to the grade of desirability and recommendation. It was said that this was only an emphasis to fast and was not an obligatory injunction due to the agreed-upon hadeeth of Mu’aawiyah ibn Abee Sufyaan (may Allah be pleased with him) wherein the Prophet ﷺstated, “This is the day of ‘Aashooraa, Allah has not enjoined its fasting on you, but I am fasting it. You have the choice either to fast or not to fast (on this day).'.”
From the benefits we can conclude from this hadeeth is learning about the significance of the day of ‘Aashooraa and the veneration of the Muslims for it..

1593
Narrated Aboo Sa’eed al-Khudree (ra): The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "The people will continue performing Hajj and `Umrah to the Ka`bah even after the appearance of Gog and Magog." Narrated ‘Abd al-Rahmaan from Shu`bah: The Hour (Day of Judgment) will not be established till the Hajj (to the Ka`bah) is abandoned..

Commentary : Gog and Magog are those who Dhu al-Qarnayn constructed a dam as a barrier to keep them away from people, as mentioned in the Statement of Allah, the Most Exalted, {But assist me with resources, I will build a barrier between you and them.}  (Quran 18: 95). Their appearance from behind this barrier or dam is one of the major signs of the Hour.
In this hadeeth, the Prophet ﷺprophesises that Muslims in the end of time will continue to perform Hajj and ‘Umrah after the demise of Gog and Magog and after their corruption on earth. 
It is reported in another hadeeth that the Prophet ﷺsaid, “The Hour will not be established until the Hajj (pilgrimage) of the House stops.” That is to say, the Day of Judgment will not be established while there is on earth a person who believes in Allah Almighty and Majestic, which explains the reason why Hajj will cease to exist. It is reported on the authority of Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺsaid, “The Last Hour will not be established until no one on earth will utter the word “Allah”.”  It is possible to reconcile between both hadeeths by saying that it is not necessary that performing Hajj after the advent of Gog and Magog means that it will constantly continue until the establishment of the Last Hour. Rather, people will stop performing Hajj at a time just before the Last Hour.
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is learning about the prophesy of the Prophet ﷺconcerning some of the matters of the unseen, which is one of the signs of his prophethood..

1594
Narrated Aboo Waa’il: (One day) I sat along with Shaybah on the chair inside the Ka`bah. He (Shaybah) said, "No doubt, `Umar sat at this place and said, 'I intended not to leave any yellow (i.e. gold) or white (i.e. silver) (inside the Ka`bah) undistributed.' I said (to `Umar), 'But your two companions (i.e. The Prophet (ﷺ) and Aboo Bakr) did not do so.' `Umar said, they are the two persons whom I always follow.' ".

Commentary : The Ka’bah is the Sacred House of Allah; thus, it is not allowed to mess around with it and its possessions. All the Prophets venerated it due to the glorification of Allah of it.
In this hadeeth, the Taabi’ee, Aboo Waa’il, the brother of Ibn Salamah informs that he sat on a chair inside the Ka’bah with Shaybah bin ‘Uthmaan bin Talhah, the guardian and the custodian of the Ka’bah. According to a narration in Sunan Ibn Maajah, it reads, “A man sent me with dirhams as a gift to the House. I entered the House and Shaybah was seated on a chair. I gave them to him. He asked, ‘Are these yours?’   I replied, ‘No. If they were mine, then I would not have brought them to you.’ He said, ‘Since you have stated this, ‘Umar bin al-Khattaab sat on the same sitting place where you are now on.’” He informed him that ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) intended not to leave any yellow item or white item (gold and silver) but to distribute it among the people. He meant the treasure that it contained. It is what was gifted to it and what was above the necessity that was stored therein. In the period of ignorance, the people would gift the wealth to the Ka’bah due to its veneration, and this wealth would accumulate therein.
When Shaybah (may Allah be pleased with him) informed him that his two previous companions – the Prophet ﷺand Aboo Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) – did not do that while they saw the treasure of the Ka’bah and its status, although they were in more need of wealth [for distribution] than ‘Umar, yet they did not disturb it and neither did they distribute it among the poor. On this, ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) remarked, “They are two perfect persons from whose deeds I would not dissent, rather I would follow them instead.”
It was said that it is possible that the Prophet ﷺleft it there only in consideration with Quraysh just as he ﷺleft the reconstruction of the Ka’bah upon the foundations of Prophet Ibraaheem (peace be upon him).” This position is corroborated by one report narrated in Saheeh Muslim from the hadeeth of ‘Aaishah concerning the rebuilding of the Ka’bah (on its original foundations), “I would have spent the treasure of the Ka’bah in the path of Allah.” Based on this, its expenditure [in the path of Allah] is permissible just as it was permissible for ‘Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) rebuilding it upon the foundations of Prophet Ibraaheem (peace be upon him), since the cause of prohibition no longer exists. The Prophet’s statement, “in the path of Allah,” can mean to spend on the good cause for the welfare of the Muslims or the refurbishment of the Ka’bah itself.
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is learning that we should imitate and empathise with the deeds of the Prophets and the righteous.
This hadeeth shows the following of ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) of the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺand his footsteps in his deeds.
It also highlights that it is important to venerate the Ka’bah and all those things that are related to it..

1595
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “I can envisage him as a bowlegged black person, dismantling it [the Ka’bah] brick by brick.”

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺwould foretell people about some events that will occur in the future and explains to them that trials and tribulations like the violation of the sanctities of sacred places will take place towards the end of time.
In this hadeeth, the Prophet ﷺtells us that among the events that will occur in the future is that the Ka’bah will be demolished at the hand of a bowlegged black person. This man will dismantle it brick by brick i.e., this is a description of the method of demolition to indicate that he will remove it completely while he has full power and authority to an extent that he will uproot its stones and will break it one after the other!
It is reported on the authority of Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet ﷺsaid, “The Ka’bah will be ruined by a bowlegged man from the Abyssinians.” [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree]. Then, the Prophet ﷺmentions that the House will be visited for pilgrimage after the advent of Gog and Magog and that Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) will perform Hajj and ‘Umrah after that. From the collection of all that it became known that the attack on the Ka’bah and its demolition will occur after the appearance of Gog and Magog and after the time of Jesus (peace be upon him), and that will happen in the end of times closer to the establishment of the Last Hour. And Allah knows best.
This hadeeth does not contradict with the ayah: {Have We not establish for them a haven [in Makkah].} (Quran 28:57) because it means that it will continue to be a haven for people until the approach of the Hour and ruination of the world, at a time when there will be not even be one Muslim on the face of earth. It is said that the story of the man with two thin legs is an exception or that Allah has made it a safe sanctuary given how it is often the case, because there were incidents where the sanctuary of Makkah was violated like the case of Ibn al-Zubayr and the story of al-Qaraamitah and the likes. It was said that the meaning of making it a safe sanctuary is in fact the command to ensure it is so i.e., it is incumbent upon the Muslims to grant safety to people and not to show aggression to anyone therein.
This hadeeth shows that the Prophet ﷺforetold us about some of the unseen matters that will happen in the future, which is considered among the signs of his prophethood ﷺ..

Narrated ‘Aabis bin Rabee’ah that ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the Black Stone, he kissed it and then he stated. “Certainly, I am aware that you are just a stone, which does not harm or benefit. Had I not seen the Prophet (ﷺ) kissing you, then I would have not kissed you.”
.

Commentary : The Black Stone is an object of reverence which Allah, Exalted be He, brought down from Paradise. The Prophet ﷺused to kiss it, hence, following his guidance we also kiss it, touch it, and point towards it, although, it is a stone that does not avert harm or bring forth benefit.
This hadeeth highlights the total submission of the Companions and the strength of their faith. The Taabi’ee. ‘Aabis bin Rabee’ah reports that ‘Umar bin al-Khattaab (ra) used to kiss the Black Stone, which is a rock set into the southeast corner of the Ka’bah, and it is embedded in a silver frame.
He (ra) did so because he saw the Prophet ﷺkissing it and had he not seen him doing so, ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) would not have kissed it, because he knew that it is just a rock that does not harm and benefit per se. The only benefit that one can obtain from kissing it is receiving reward through emulating the command of the Prophet ﷺand following the Sunnah of his kissing.That is because Allah has granted some stones virtues over the others, some pieces of lands over the others, and some nights and days over the others. The kissing of the Black Stone has been prescribed as a form of showing respect and veneration to its right and to observationally know who obeys the command and refrains from the prohibition. This is similar to the story of Satan when he was commanded to prostate to Adam (peace be upon him).
It was said: ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) only said that because they were very close in time to the idolatry, and he feared that the ignorant ones will think that touching the Black Stone is the same as what the Arabs used to do in the time of ignorance. He intended to teach them that it is only the exaltation of Allah and adherence to the command of the Prophet intended by the touching of the [Black] Stone and that it is part of the rites of Hajj.
From the benefits of this hadeeth: it contains a great rule about following the Prophet ﷺin all his actions, even if the wisdom therein remains unknown. 
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to kiss the Black Stone and it is prohibited to kiss any other stones and objects that we are not prescribed to kiss, and there is no mention of them in Islam.
It demonstrates the Sunnah through words and actions, and that it is compulsory on the ruler to hasten to clarify a matter and explain it when he fears about the corruption of someone’s creed due to a certain action..

Narrated Saalim from his father: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) entered the House as well as Usaamah bin Zayd, Bilaal, and ‘Uthmaan bin Talhah (ra). They closed the doors on themselves.   When they opened the door, I was the first one to enter.   I met Bilaal and asked him, “Did the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) pray inside it?” He replied, “Yes, between the two Yamaanee pillars.””.

Commentary : The Ka’bah is the ancient House of Allah that Muslims revere and respect. The Prophet ﷺprayed inside it during the year of the Conquest of Makkah.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺ, Usaamah bin Zayd, Bilaal, and ‘Uthmaan bin Talhah (may Allah be pleased with them) entered the Ka’bah and closed the door on themselves from inside. When they opened it, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) happened to be the first one to enter it. He asked Bilaal (may Allah be pleased with him), “Did the Prophet ﷺperform prayers inside?” He replied, “Yes, he prayed between the two Yamaanee pillars that face towards Yemen.”
It is reported in another hadeeth that, “He ﷺmade one pillar to be on his left and the other pillar to be on his right and three behind him. The House in that time used to stand on six pillars, then he ﷺperformed his prayers.” [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim]. The length between where he prayed and the Qiblah was three cubits, as it is mentioned in Sunan Aboo Daawood.
The scholars reconciliated between this hadeeth and the hadeeth of Ibn ‘Abbaas (ra) in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree wherein the following is mentioned, “He entered the House and he pronounced takbeer in all its corners and he did not pray in it.” The confirmation of Bilaal takes precedence over the negation of others, because Ibn ‘Abbaas was not with the Prophet ﷺon that day. He attributed his negation to sometimes (narrating from) Usaamah and to sometimes to his brother al-Fadl. It is said that it is possible that the entrance [of the Prophet ﷺ] to the House happened twice, on one occasion he ﷺperformed prayers, while, on the other, he ﷺdid not pray.
From the benefits we can conclude from this hadeeth is learning that it is permissible to enter the Ka’bah and performing prayers therein.
This hadeeth shows the passion and keenness to acquire knowledge and asking about it, and that it is permitted to ask someone who is of lower status while someone of a higher status is present and to find him sufficient. 
It highlights the virtue of Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) due to his profound eagerness to follow the footsteps of the Prophet ﷺ.
One can also learn from this hadeeth that a companion possessing great virtues would sometimes be absent from the Prophet ﷺduring some virtuous occasions, while someone of a lower rank than him would be present and would come to know what others had not learnt..

1599
Narrated Naafi’: Whenever Ibn ‘Umar (ra) entered the Ka’bah, he would proceed ahead keeping the door at his back on entering. He would walk until the distance between him and the wall in front of him would be three cubits. Then he would offer prayers at the place where the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)had performed prayers, as Bilaal informed him. There is nothing for anyone to offer prayers in any one the corners of the House which he wishes.
.

Commentary : Ibn ‘Umar (ra) was known for his profound love and eagerness to follow the example of the Prophet ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, Naa’fi, the freed slave of Ibn ‘Umar, reports that whenever ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar (ra) entered the Ka’bah, he would walk straight ahead and would leave the door behind his back and would proceed until the distance between him and the wall in front of him is of about three cubits, which would give him enough space to pray with ease. He would look for the exact place where the Prophet ﷺprayed, which he came to know about from Bilaal (ra).  Then he explained that there is nothing wrong for anyone to perform prayers anywhere inside the Ka’bah if the door is closed. It appears that this statement is made by Naafi’, the freed slave of Ibn ‘Umar, whilst maintaining the possibility that it could be someone else’s statement.
It is reported in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim that the Prophet ﷺ “made one pillar to be on his left and the other pillar to be on his right and three behind him. The House in that time used to stand on six pillars, then he ﷺperformed his prayers.” The distance between him and the Qiblah was three cubits, as reported in Sunan Aboo Daawood.
The scholars reconciliated between this hadeeth and the hadeeth of Ibn ‘Abbaas (ra) in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree wherein the following is mentioned, “He entered the House and he pronounced takbeer in all its corners and he did not pray in it.” The confirmation of Bilaal takes precedence over the negation of others, because Ibn ‘Abbaas was not with the Prophet ﷺon that day. He attributed his negation to sometimes (narrating from) Usaamah and to sometimes to his brother al-Fadl. It is said that it is possible that the entrance [of the Prophet ﷺ] to the House happened twice, on one occasion he ﷺperformed prayers, while, on the other, he ﷺdid not pray.
From the benefits to be concluded from this hadeeth is knowing that it is permissible to enter the Ka’bah and pray therein.
The hadeeth shows that whoever arrives first is more entitled to pray at the virtuous spot.
It also shows that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) learn and benefit from each other..

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Abee Awfaa (ra): “The Messenger of Allah ﷺperformed ‘Umrah and did circumambulate round the Ka’bah and offered a two-units-prayer behind the Maqaam of Ibraaheem (the standing place of Ibraaheem) while some of his Companions covered him from people.” A person inquired from him, “Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺenter the Ka’bah? He replied, “No.”
.

Commentary : The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) would eagerly observe all the acts of worship, dealings, and interactions of the Prophet ﷺ. As such, they ensured to closely observe how he performed the rites of Hajj and ‘Umrah so as to learn his Sunnah and thereafter to act upon it.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah bin Abee Awfaa (ra) reports that the Prophet ﷺperformed his first ‘Umrah, a.k.a. ‘Umrah al-Qadaa’ in the seventh year of Hijrah, before the Conquest of Makkah. In this ‘Umrah, he performed the Tawaaf round the Ka’bah, offered a two-units prayer behind the Maqaam of Ibraaheem whilst some of his Companions veiled him from the front so that no person can cross in front of him while praying. A man asked him, “Did the Messenger of Allah really enter the Ka’bah in this ‘Umrah?” Ibn Abee Awfaa replied, “In this ‘Umrah the Prophet ﷺdid not enter it.”
Entrance into the Ka’bah is not among the rites of Hajj and ‘Umrah, however, who enters it, then that is good for him, whereas, who does not enter it, then there is nothing to blame him for. It is reported in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim that the Prophet ﷺentered inside the Ka’bah when he conquered Makkah after removing all the idols and pictures which were placed inside and then he ﷺprayed inside of it. .

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No son can repay a father unless he finds him a slave and buys him and emancipates him." Another version reads: "No son can repay his father.".

Commentary : The right that children owe to their parents is great, and being dutiful to them in Islam is among the greatest means of drawing closer to Allah, as Allah has made dutifulness to them one of the broadest ways of reaching Paradise. Allah has also made not obeying them among the major sins and misdeeds that lead their perpetrators to disgracing punishment.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) clarifies that the child, whether male or female, cannot repay his father - the mother is included and so are the grandparents who are the same as the parents - and fulfill his right in full for his kindness towards him except when he finds his father a slave, buys him with his own money, and emancipates him and sets him free. In other words, the son seeks to reach him by buying him, and it is well known that he only buys him to free him from slavery, not to have him as his own slave or to be the master of his father. So, nothing fulfills the father's right over his son, no matter what the son does, except this act. This is because Islam came when slavery and serfdom were widespread and a common habit of the Arabs, and there were bondmaids and slaves in every house.
It was said: If a man took possession of his father, the latter would be free by mere possession and [there is] no need to say: I set him free. Similarly, if he took possession of his mother, she would be free by mere possession and [there is] no need to say: I set her free.
The Hadīth encourages children to be dutiful and kind to their parents.
It also denotes the merit of emancipating slaves..

1513
Abu Hurayrah reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the Hasāh sale (throwing pebble sale) and the Gharar sale (uncertainty sale)..

Commentary : During the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there prevailed types of transactions that involved massive oppression and injustice. When Islam came, it established fair sales and forbade whatever involved oppression. Hence, it forbade what involved fraud and ambiguity to stop disagreement and dispute among people, which is one of the Shariah-approved objectives.
In this Hadīth, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the Hasāh sale, which was one of the sales practiced by the people of Jāhiliyyah. If the seller or the buyer threw a pebble, that would be a sign of finalizing the sale. It had three forms: First: The seller says to the buyer: I would sell you of these garments that on which the pebble I throw falls; or: I would sell you a piece of this land from here to the part that this pebble reaches. Second: Considering the act of throwing the pebble itself a sale by saying: If you throw the pebble at this garment, it will be sold to you at such-and-such. Third: Saying: You have the option to either accept or reject the sale until I throw this pebble. It was said: It means saying: Throw the pebble and whatever number comes out, I will be entitled to an equal number of dinars or dirhams. All these are forms of invalid sales that entail doing injustice to one of the two parties of the sale.
The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) also forbade the Gharar sale. Gharar means danger, delusion, and deceit. This is a generalization after a specification, as it includes any sale that involves any kind of deceit, or that which is ambiguous or cannot be fulfilled. One of the rationales behind forbidding this sale is the fact that it is a waste of money, for one may not be able to get the sold item, which means that he spent his money in vain.
The Hadīth prohibits deception and fraud in sales.
It warns against consuming people's properties wrongfully.
It also points out that the object of a sale transaction must be something known and must have a known price..

1519
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do not go out to meet what is being brought for trade. Whoever goes out to meet it and buys something thereof, when its master comes to the market, he will have the option..

Commentary : Selling and buying have rulings and etiquettes in Islam that a Muslim must adhere to fulfill justice in transactions and enjoy the pleasures of this worldly life and the Hereafter.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbids merchants from going out and receiving those people who transport commodities from one country to another. They must not receive them before arriving and being acquainted with the prices of commodities in such a country because this might harm the seller as they might buy from him at a lower price than its known price, which would result in harming the owner of the commodity by underestimating its price. Hence, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) commanded the one who goes out to meet it and buys something thereof, and does not comply with the prohibition. So when "its master," i.e., the owner of the commodity, comes to the market, he will have the option either to effect the sale or take back his goods, for perhaps he did him injustice and wronged him regarding its price compared to its price in this country.
The Hadīth encourages truthfulness and transparency and the avoidance of deceit in commercial transactions.
It shows the Prophet's keenness on whatever brings goodness to his Ummah and his kindness towards them even when it comes to worldly interests..

1525
Ibn ‘Abbās reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever buys food should not sell it until he measures it. I said to Ibn ‘Abbās: Why? He said: Do you not see them transacting with gold, whereas the food is deferred?.

Commentary : Allah Almighty has prescribed in sale what maintains people's rights, keeps them away from conflicts and quarrels, and repels harm from them.
In this Hadīth, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) advises us saying that whoever buys food and wants to resell it, he "should not sell it" until he takes it after being measured and weighed. This is an indirect reference that the buyer should receive it and it becomes in his possession and knows its amount in a way that negates ambiguity. This is related to what is sold by measure as in this case, so it must be first measured until he receives it in full, then, he may sell it afterward. It is not lawful for him to sell it before measuring it, as it could be subject to excess or deficiency, which entails doing injustice and harm either to the seller or the buyer. Thereupon, Tāwūs ibn Kaysān - from the Tābi‘is - asked Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him and his father): "Why?" i.e., why did the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stipulate this condition? Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) said: "Do you not see them transacting with gold, whereas the food is deferred?" In other words, the seller used to take the price in gold dinars, and then he would delay the delivery of food to the buyer. Therefore, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stipulated that the buyer should not resell it until he receives it and it becomes in his possession. Another Hadīth in the two Sahīh Collections clarified that what he meant by that is to transfer the food to another place or to the markets where it is sold in order not to be monopolized or manipulate its price. So, he made it clear that the right thing is to transfer it to the markets, which are known to people, where food is sold and to take possession of it, since Qabd (taking possession) is a condition, and transferring it as mentioned fulfills this condition.
Moreover, in the two Sahīh Collections, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade reselling the food after buying it until he receives it in full, i.e., he should not adopt any procedure or dispose of it by selling it again unless he first takes what he has purchased and it becomes in his full possession. Only then, he can resell it. This guarantees preventing any harm to the seller, the buyer, or the dwellers of this country that could result in disputes and conflicts between people and, thus, inflict harm upon them.
The Hadīth shows the Prophet's keenness on whatever brings goodness to his Ummah and his kindness towards them even when it comes to worldly interests.
It highlights the prohibition of adopting sale methods that lead to the monopoly of goods and the rise in prices, or that cause harm to the parties involved in the sale transaction..

1530
Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade selling a heap of dried dates, whose measure is unknown, for a specified amount of dried dates..

Commentary : The rulings of sale transactions in Islam revolve around honesty and the absence of uncertainty among the parties involved in the sale. The sold item must be known to both parties, in terms of type, quantity, and quality, in such a way that removes any ambiguity. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade certain kinds of sales that involve Jahālah (ambiguity), Gharar (uncertainty), and Riba (usury).
This Hadīth clarifies some of these forbidden kinds of sales. Jābir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): "Forbade selling a heap of dried dates, whose measure is unknown," "Subrah" (heap): food that is collected in a pile and whose weight and quantity are unknown. This applies to all types of food; however, he mentioned here one type in particular, namely the dried dates, because it is their staple food; otherwise, the mentioned prohibition includes all types of measured food. In Muslim's version, he did not mention his saying: "of dried dates" at the end of the Hadīth, which indicates the inclusion of all types of food sold without knowing its amount in exchange for a known amount of its like. "For a specified amount of dried dates," i.e., he forbade selling an unknown amount for a known amount of the same type, like dried dates for dried dates, wheat for wheat, and barley for barley, as this involves ambiguity regarding the unmeasured food from one aspect besides involving Riba al-Fadl (usury of surplus) from another aspect, bearing in mind that ignorance about the equality between the sold and purchased items is like knowing that there is a surplus between them, which is clear Riba. If the items subject to Riba rulings are the same, then, they must be the same in measure and hand to hand. However, if they are of different types, then, there is nothing wrong with the surplus between them like in the case of selling dried dates for wheat, or barley for corn, and the same applies to selling for cash, gold, or silver.
The Hadīth clarifies how the Shariah regulates the process of selling and buying to avoid the occurrence of disputes..

1536
Jābir reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land and selling it ahead for years, and selling fruits before ripening..

Commentary : In the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there prevailed types of sale that brimmed with oppression and injustice. When Islam came, it established fair sales and forbade everything involving oppression. Hence, it forbade cheating in sale transactions. Putting an end to disputes and conflicts between the seller and the buyer is one of the objectives of the Shariah.
In this Hadīth, Jābir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reports that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade "leasing land", which is renting it. The forbidden lease is that which is in return for some of its produce, which means that the rent agreed upon between the owner and the lessee is an amount specified from the beginning of the fruits produced by this land, which may or may not produce this amount. In this case, the one who cultivates it will not be capable of fulfilling his contract. However, there is nothing wrong with leasing land in return for gold, silver, or cash, as in the two Sahīh Collections, Hanzhalah ibn Qays reported: "That he asked Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj about leasing land, and he said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. He said: I said: Even in return for gold and silver? He said: If it is in return for gold and silver, there is no harm in it." Also in the two Sahīh Collections, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported: "The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) agreed with the people of Khaybar to work and cultivate in return for half of the fruits or crops produced." Therefore, the owner is allowed to lease it in return for a standard percentage of what is cultivated therein, like one-fourth or one-third of its produce.
He also forbade "selling it in advance for years." A version of Muslim reads: "Selling fruits in advance for years," which is selling the fruits of trees and palm trees for two years or more, knowing that such fruits have not been created yet. This is a Gharar sale (uncertain sale) because it involves selling something non-existent, ambiguous, undeliverable, and not owned by the contractor. So, it is a sale that involves a great deal of uncertainty and ambiguity.
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) also forbade "selling fruits before ripening," i.e., appearing to be ripe when it becomes colorful and its fruit appears and it becomes red or yellow, which is a sign of its good condition and safety from blight, and it becomes suitable for eating and selling.
The Hadīth shows the prohibition of every sale that involves ambiguity..

1536
Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade taking of rent or share of land..

Commentary : In the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there prevailed types of sales that brimmed with oppression and injustice. When Islam came, it established fair sales and forbade whatever involved oppression. Hence, it forbade whatever involved fraud, uncertainty, and ambiguity to put an end to disputes and conflicts among people, which is one of the Shariah-approved objectives.
During the time of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), people used to lease their cultivated lands with contracts that either included an ambiguous rent or entailed injustice to the tenant. Hence, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade taking rent or share of the land to prevent such contracts. The rent or share here means: The rent agreed upon between the owner, and the lessee is an amount specified from the beginning of the fruits produced by this land, and the land may produce this amount and may not, in which case the one who cultivates it will not be capable of fulfilling his contract. Hence, this was forbidden so they would not deceive the other or wrongfully consume his brother's property.
As for leasing in return for gold, silver, or cash, there is nothing wrong with it, as in the two Sahīh Collections - the wording is that of Muslim - Hanzhalah ibn Qays reported: "That he asked Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj about leasing land, and he said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. He said: I said: Even in return for gold and silver? He said: If it is in return for gold and silver, there is no harm in it." Also in the two Sahīh Collections, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported: "The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) agreed with the people of Khaybar to work and cultivate in return for half of the fruits or crops produced." Therefore, the owner is allowed to lease it in return for a standard percentage of what is cultivated therein, like one-fourth or one-third of its produce..

1536
Jābir reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the sale of produce several years in advance. Another version reads: Selling fruits years in advance..

Commentary : Islam cares about protecting people's properties and is keen on not wasting them. It has clarified the manner of dealing with fixed assets and cash and how to manage selling and buying in such a way that guarantees the absence of uncertainty between the transactors and the removal of ambiguity from the sold item.
In this Hadīth, Jābir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the sale of selling in advance, or selling fruits years in advance, which is selling the fruits of trees and palm trees for two years or more, knowing that such fruits have not been created yet. This is a Gharar sale (a sale of uncertainty) because it involves selling something non-existent, ambiguous, undeliverable, and not owned by the contractor. So, it is a sale that involves a great deal of uncertainty and ambiguity.
One of the rationales behind this prohibition is the waste of money involved as the sold item might not be achieved, and he would have, thus, spent his money in vain.
The Hadīth shows the Prophet's keenness to establish financial relations among people based on sound grounds to protect the rights of all parties involved..

1536
Jābir reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade selling the white land (uncultivated land) for two or three years..

Commentary : Islam cares about protecting people's property and is keen on not wasting them. It has clarified the manner of dealing with fixed assets and cash and how to manage selling and buying in such a way that guarantees the absence of uncertainty between the transactors and the removal of ambiguity from the sold item.
In this Hadīth, Jābir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) narrates that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade selling the white land, which is the land that has no trees or plants. What is meant by selling it here is its "Kirā’" (leasing), which means taking a share of the fruits as a rent for the land. It was called "sale" because it refers to selling a benefit. His saying: "Two or three years" indicates that the land may not yield a product during one of the contract years. Hence, its cultivator will need to fulfill his contract. For this reason, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) made the original state of the land dominant in the contract so that none of them would deceive the other or consume his brother's property wrongfully.
As for leasing in return for gold, silver, or cash, there is nothing wrong with that, for in the two Sahīh Collections - the wording is that of Muslim - Hanzhalah ibn Qays reported: "That he asked Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj about leasing land, and he said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. He said: I said: Even in return for gold and silver? He said: If it is in return for gold and silver, there is no harm with that."
The Prohibition in this Hadīth is from uncertainty in leasing land in return for something ambiguous or not guaranteed of its fruits and how the transaction should be transparent and known to avoid discord and wasting people's properties..

1541
Abu Hurayrah reported: the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) gave a concession for the sale of ‘Arāyā (unpicked ripe dates for dry dates) by estimation when they are less than - or he said: equal to - five Wasqs (a standard measure)..

Commentary : In the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there were types of Riba-based sales. When Islam came, it rectified and refined such sale transactions and established the fair sale, which is free from Riba (usury). It forbade all types of sales that involve a possibility of Riba and that involve injustice.
In this Hadīth, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) "gave a concession," i.e., allowed and permitted, "the sale of ‘Arāyā": A type of sale that takes the following form: Buying fresh dates after becoming ripe on the date palms for dry dates. So, the fruits on the date palm are given to the needy to eat therefrom whenever they like. What is on the date palms is estimated and dry dates are taken in exchange. It was called the ‘Arāya sale because the owner of the date palm gives it to a needy person, i.e., he strips it of its fruits for his sake. However, the Shariah set a condition that this should be done "by estimation," i.e., with a similar number of dried dates for the unpicked fruits. This is because some people would witness the season of ripe dates and wish to feed their children therefrom while having no date palms or money. Hence, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) wanted to show kindness to them. He also stipulated that this should be of a measure or weight less than "five Wasqs", and the "Wasq" is a standard measure that is equal to sixty Sā‘s, i.e. (130.5kg) one hundred thirty kilograms and a half. Therefore, five Wasqs are equal to almost (653kg) six hundred fifty-three kilograms.
This means: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) granted them a concession regarding this kind of sale with this amount only because it could be mistakenly thought to be Riba, as the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade selling fruits for fruits of the same type, which is called a Muzābanah sale (selling something definite for an indefinite amount of its kind). It is as if the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) made for them the exception of the ‘Arāya sale from Muzābanah and restricted it to five Wasqs to avoid the possibility of Riba.
His saying: "Or equal to five Wasqs" refers to the doubt that one of the Hadīth narrators had, and he was Dāwūd ibn al-Husayn, as he did not remember whether it was five Wasqs or less than five Wasqs.
The Hadīth clarifies the concession granted regarding one of the sale transactions out of alleviation and facilitation for the Ummah.
It also points out that the specified amount in the ‘Arāya sale transactions is five Wasqs..

Ibn ‘Umar reported: We did not see anything wrong with Khibr until last year when Rāfi‘ claimed that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it. [Another version reads]: So, we abandoned it on account of that. [Another version reads]: Rāfi‘ has forbidden us from benefitting from our land..

Commentary : In the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there prevailed types of sale that brimmed with oppression and injustice. When Islam came, it established fair sales and forbade whatever involved oppression. Hence, it forbade whatever involved fraud, uncertainty, and ambiguity to put an end to disputes and conflicts among people, which is one of the Shariah-approved objectives.
In this Hadīth, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reports that they used to see nothing wrong with Khibr, i.e., they used to practice Mukhābarah (sharecropping), which is leasing the land in return for part of its produce, and the seed or sowing part is from the worker (the lessee). Things continued this way until the year preceding that year when Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) was narrating this Hadīth. A version of Muslim reads: "Ibn ‘Umar used to rent his farms during the time of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), and during the rule of Abu Bakr, ‘Umar, ‘Uthmān, and the early days of Mu‘āwiyah's caliphate until it was conveyed to him at the end of Mu‘āwiyah's caliphate." As Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade Mukhābarah. Thereupon, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) refrained from Mukhābarah on account of what was narrated by Rāfi‘ (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
In another version, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) said: "Rāfi‘ has, indeed, forbidden us from benefitting from our land," i.e., Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj (may Allah be pleased with him) forbade us from benefitting from our land through Mukhābarah.
Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) did not ask Rafi‘ for details about what was meant by the prohibition. In the two Sahīh Collections, Hanzhalah ibn Qays reported: "That he asked Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj about leasing land, and he said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. He said: I said: Even in return for gold and silver? He said: If it is in return for gold and silver, there is no harm in it." Also in the two Sahīh Collections, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported: "The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) agreed with the people of Khaybar to work and cultivate in return for half of the fruits or crops produced." Therefore, it is permissible for the owner to rent it in return for a standard percentage of what is cultivated therein, like one-fourth or one-third of its produce. The prohibition refers to whatever involves risk, ambiguity, and uncertainty. The most famous among such transactions was where the landowner used to specify for himself part of the land and what it produces..

Hanzhalah ibn Qays al-Ansāri reported: I asked Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj about leasing land in return for gold and silver, he replied: "There is no harm in it. At the time of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) the people used to lease lands in return for the yield of what grows on the banks of large rivers and the beginnings of water streams or the yield of certain parts of the land. Some of the harvest would be destroyed and some would remain safe. This was the only system the people had for renting lands, and thus, he forbade it. If the rent is something known and guaranteed, there is no harm in it.".

Commentary : During the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there prevailed types of transactions that involved massive oppression and injustice. When Islam came, it established fair sales and forbade whatever involved oppression. Hence, it forbade what entailed fraud, uncertainty, and ambiguity to stop discord and dispute among people, which is one of the Shariah-approved objectives. At the time of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), people used to lease lands in return for a share of the yield as rent. The Tābi‘i Hanzhalah ibn Qays al-Ansāri asked the Companion Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj (may Allah be pleased with him) about leasing it, i.e., renting it in return for gold and silver, which are meant here to refer to the dinar and dirham. This is a question about leasing land in return for gold and silver instead of leasing it in return for part of the yield. Rāfi‘ (may Allah be pleased with him) replied that there is no objection to leasing land in return for gold and silver, and he said: "At the time of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) the people used to lease lands in return for the yield of what grows on the banks of large rivers," which are the watercourses coming from the wide river. It was said: What grows on the banks of the watercourse, and it was said: What grows around the brooklets. "And the beginnings of water streams," which are the beginnings of small rivers, "or the yield of certain parts of the land," i.e., types of the cultivated crops. This means: the owner allocates to himself the parts that would yield the best fruits or the finest crops, and the rest is for the tenant.
Rāfi‘ said: "Some of the harvest would be destroyed and some would remain safe," i.e., either the harvest of the owner or that of the tenant is destroyed, so one of them is wronged. "This was the only system the people had for renting lands, and thus, he forbade it," i.e., the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited this kind of rent given the Jahālah (ambiguity) that it involved, and Jahālah is Gharar (uncertainty). If the rent, however, is something known and guaranteed, i.e., a known rent in cash, then there is no objection to leasing the land in return for such rent.
The Hadīth points out the permissibility of leasing land in return for a known amount of cash money..

Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj reported: At the time of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), we used to lease land based on Muhāqalah so that we would lease it in return for one-third or one-quarter of the yield or a specified amount of food. One day, a man from among my paternal uncles came and said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) has forbidden us from something beneficial for us, but obedience to Allah and His Messenger is more beneficial for us. He has forbidden us to lease land based on Muhāqalah and to lease it in return for one-third or one-quarter of the yield and for a specified amount of food. He commanded the landowner to cultivate it or to give it to someone else to cultivate. He disliked leasing it or anything else. [Another version reads]: We used to lease land based on Muhāqalah, leasing it in return for one-third or one-quarter of the yield..

Commentary : In the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there prevailed types of sale that brimmed with oppression and injustice. When Islam came, it established fair sales and forbade whatever involved oppression. Hence, it forbade whatever involved fraud, uncertainty, and ambiguity to end disputes and conflicts among people, which is one of the Shariah-approved objectives.
In this Hadīth, Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that they used to lease land based on Muhāqalah during the time of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). There are different opinions regarding the meaning of Muhāqalah. It is said: It means leasing the land in return for wheat, as interpreted in some versions, which is called Muhārathah by the cultivators. It is said: It means the cultivation of land in return for a known share of its produce, like one-third, one-fourth, or the like as mentioned in this Hadīth. It is said: It means selling food in its ears in return for wheat grains. It is said: It means selling crops before fully growing. His saying: "And for a specified amount of food," i.e., by taking a specified share of the fruits as a rent for the land, and all this entails ambiguity in the contract between the owner and the lessee. Then, Rāfi '(may Allah be pleased with him) reported that things continued in this way until one day, one of his paternal uncles - it is said: His uncle Zhahīr ibn Rāfi '- came and informed them that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade them from something beneficial for them, referring to Muhāqalah, which was what they obtained in return for using the land so that they would benefit and the worker would benefit as well. However, this benefit, in fact, is a partial benefit, and perhaps it will not be safe from harm, as its fruits might be ruined, which would lead to the loss of the right of one of them. "But obedience to Allah and His Messenger is more beneficial for us," i.e., obeying Allah and His Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to what he guides us is more beneficial for us than this assumed benefit of Kirā’ and Muzāra‘ah that we used to practice. In fact, responding to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) is better and more beneficial for their religion and worldly life. One of their ways of practicing Muhāqalah was leasing land in return for one-third or one-fourth of its yield or a specified amount of food, i.e., by taking a share of the fruits as a rent for the land. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) commanded the landowner to cultivate it himself or give it to someone to cultivate. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) disliked "leasing it or anything else," i.e., anything related to leasing. It is said: This was during the early days of emigration out of compassion for them; they had either to cultivate it or to let it be cultivated by others from their emigrant brothers. Then, he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) granted a concession for leasing. It was reported that there is no harm in leasing in return for gold, silver, or cash, as in the two Sahīh Collections, Hanzhalah ibn Qays reported: "That he asked Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj about leasing land, and he said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. He said: I said: Even in return for gold and silver? He said: If it is in return for gold and silver, there is no harm in it." Also in the two Sahīh Collections, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported: "The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) agreed with the people of Khaybar to work and cultivate in return for half of the fruits or crops produced." Therefore, it is permissible for the owner to rent it in return for a standard percentage of what is cultivated therein, like one-fourth or one-third of its produce. The prohibition refers to whatever involves risk, ambiguity, and uncertainty. The most famous among such transactions was where the landowner used to specify for himself part of the land and what it produced.
The Hadīth highlights the fact that Allah Almighty and His Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) never forbid benefits and interests; rather, they forbid evil consequences and whatever leads to them..

‘Abdullah ibn as-Sā’ib reported: We entered upon ‘Abdullah ibn Ma‘qil and asked him about Muzāra‘ah (sharecropping). He said: Thābit claimed that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade Muzāra‘ah and commanded Mu’ājarah (leasing land for rent), and he said: There is no harm in it..

Commentary : In the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, there prevailed types of sales that brimmed with oppression and injustice. When Islam came, it established fair sales and forbade whatever involved oppression. Hence, it forbade whatever involved fraud, uncertainty, and ambiguity to end disputes and conflicts among people, which is one of the Shariah-approved objectives.
In this Hadīth, Thābit ibn ad-Dahhāk (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade Muzāra‘ah, which is leasing the land in return for part of it and working on the land for part of its fruit production. The prohibition here refers to whatever involves risk, ambiguity, and uncertainty, and the most famous among such transactions was the one where the landowner used to specify for himself part of the land and what it produced. However, apart from this, it is permissible for the owner to lease it for a standard percentage of what is cultivated therein, like one-fourth or one-third of its produce, as it is mentioned in the two Sahīh Collections that Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported: "The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) agreed with the people of Khaybar to work and cultivate in return for half of the fruits or crops produced."
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) commanded and made it permissible for them to practice Mu’ājarah instead of Muzāra‘ah and it means taking a known rent in gold, silver, or cash because this kind of lease is the farthest from uncertainty and ambiguity. In the two Sahīh Collections, Hanzhalah ibn Qays reported: "That he asked Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj about leasing land, and he said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade leasing land. He said: I said: Even in return for gold and silver? He said: If it is in return for gold and silver, there is no harm in it.".

Ibn ‘Umar reported: 'Umar ibn al-Khattāb expelled the Jews and the Christians from the land of Hijāz, and when the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) conquered Khaybar, he wanted to expel the Jews from that place, for when the land was conquered, it came to belong to Allah, His Messenger, and the Muslims. Hence, he wanted to expel the Jews from it. However, the Jews asked the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to leave them there on condition that they should do all its work and have half the produce. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to them: We shall leave you there on that condition for as long as we wish. So, they stayed there until ‘Umar expelled them to Taymā’ and Arīhā’..

Commentary : Some of the Jewish tribes were living in Madīnah, and they kept betraying Muslims and breaching their covenants with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) during his lifetime and with his Companions after his death. So, some of them made covenants with them, whereas others declared war against them.
In this Hadīth, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reports that the Caliph ‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) expelled the Jews and the Christians, i.e., he deported them from the land of Hijāz, namely Makkah and Madīnah and their surroundings.
Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reports that when the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) gained victory over the people of Khaybar and overcame them in the seventh year of Hijrah, and it was a village inhabited by the Jews almost 168 kilometers away from Madīnah from the direction of the Levant, he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) wanted to expel the Jews from it, for when the land of Khaybar was conquered by Muslims, it became a possession of Allah, His Messenger, and Muslims. This clearly shows that the land was no longer owned by the Jews after being conquered by Muslims; rather, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) distributed it among the victorious Muslims and it became among their possessions. What is meant by it being a possession of Allah and His Messenger is that some of its shares were given to the Muslims' public treasury.
On knowing that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) wanted to deport them from Khaybar, the Jews asked him to allow them to stay in it and leave them on condition that they would work therein in the trees and the land in return for half of its fruits, whereas the other half would be for him, and he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) agreed to the condition they stipulated for themselves. His saying: "For as long as we wish", was an exception made by the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to the condition of their stay. It means that if Muslims wanted to expel you from that place, you would have to leave, as the Jews were not entitled to anything if Muslims had a different opinion. The agreement was concluded on such terms, and the Jews remained in Khaybar and stayed therein during the time of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and during the caliphate of Abu Bakr as-Siddīq (may Allah be pleased with him) until 'Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) became the caliph. During his time, Muslims were of the opinion of expelling the Jews from the Peninsula, and this acted as an invalidation of the contract between the Muslims and the Jews, and 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) expelled them from that place to Taymā' and Arīhā'.
Taymā’ is a place on the way of Madīnah and Tabūk city toward the Levant. Historically and geographically, it is located northwest of the Arabian Peninsula. It is almost 264 kilometres away to the east of Tabūk city and nearly 420 kilometres away to the north of Madīnah, whereas Arīhā’ was a village in the Levant.
The reason why ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) expelled the Jews was narrated in Al-Bukhāri Collection where ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar went to his property there and was attacked at night, and his hands and feet were injured, and as we have no enemies there except them, they are our enemies and the ones whom we suspect, and I have made up my mind to exile them. So, he exiled them and gave them the price of the fruits they were entitled to in the form of money, camels, and goods, including saddles, ropes, etc. In the two Sahīh Collections, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Expel the polytheists from Arabia."
The Hadīth shows that agricultural land is leased to the landowner for a known portion of its fruits, whereas the rest goes to its cultivator.
It points out that a Muslim ruler has the right to conclude treaties, make whatever exceptions he wants, and revoke such treaties based on the agreed-upon conditions, provided that all this is for the benefit of Muslims.
It highlights the fact that dealing with the People of the Book should be for what brings benefit, not harm, to the Muslim Ummah, along with being careful and taking precautions against them..
