Al-Nawwās ibn Samʿān (may Allah be pleased with him) said: One morning the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the Dajjāl, lowering his voice over him and raising it, until we thought he was in a cluster of palm trees. When we went to him later, he recognised that in us and said: "What is the matter with you?" We said: O Messenger of Allah, you mentioned the Dajjāl this morning, lowering and raising your voice over him, until we thought he was in a cluster of palm trees. He said: "It is something other than the Dajjāl that I fear most for you. If he appears while I am among you, I shall contend with him on your behalf; but if he appears when I am not among you, then each man must contend for himself, and Allah is my deputy over every Muslim. He is a young man with tightly curled hair and a protruding eye; it is as though I liken him to ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā ibn Qaṭan. Whoever among you reaches him, let him recite over him the opening verses of Sūrat al-Kahf. He will emerge by way of a road between al-Shām and al-ʿIrāq, wreaking havoc to the right and to the left. O servants of Allah, stand firm!" We said: O Messenger of Allah, how long will he remain on the earth? He said: "Forty days: one day like a year, one day like a month, one day like a week, and the rest of his days like your days." We said: O Messenger of Allah, on that day which is like a year, will the prayer of a single day suffice us in it? He said: "No; estimate its measure." We said: O Messenger of Allah, how swiftly will he move through the earth? He said: "Like a rain-cloud driven by the wind. He comes to a people and calls them, and they believe in him and respond to him; he commands the sky and it rains, and the earth and it brings forth growth, so their grazing herds return to them in the evening with their humps the tallest they have ever been, their udders the fullest, and their flanks the most distended. Then he comes to another people and calls them, but they reject his words, so he turns away from them, and they wake stricken by drought with nothing of their wealth in their hands. He passes by the ruins and says to them: Bring forth your treasures! and its treasures follow him like swarms of bees. Then he summons a man brimming with youth and strikes him with the sword, cutting him into two pieces the distance of an archer's shot apart. Then he calls him, and he comes forward, his face shining and laughing. While he is in that state, Allah the Exalted sends down the Messiah, son of Mary (peace and blessings be upon him). He descends at the white minaret to the east of Damascus, clad in two lightly dyed garments, his palms resting on the wings of two angels. When he lowers his head, drops fall; and when he raises it, pearl-like beads roll down from it. No disbeliever who senses the scent of his breath can survive, and his breath reaches as far as his sight reaches. He pursues him until he overtakes him at the gate of Ludd and kills him. Then ʿĪsā (peace and blessings be upon him) comes to a people whom Allah has protected from him, and he wipes their faces and tells them of their ranks in Paradise. While he is in that state, Allah the Exalted reveals to ʿĪsā (peace and blessings be upon him): I have brought forth servants of Mine whom none has the power to fight, so take My servants safely to al-Ṭūr. Then Allah sends Yaʾjūj and Maʾjūj, and they come swarming down from every height. Their forerunners pass by the lake of Ṭabariyyah and drink what is in it, and when the last of them pass, they say: There was once water here. The Prophet of Allah ʿĪsā (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions are besieged, until the head of an ox is dearer to one of them than a hundred dinars are to one of you today. So the Prophet of Allah ʿĪsā (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions (may Allah be pleased with them) beseech Allah the Exalted, and Allah the Exalted sends upon them a worm in their necks, and they die all at once like the death of a single soul. Then the Prophet of Allah ʿĪsā (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions (may Allah be pleased with them) descend to the earth, and they do not find on the earth a span's space but it is filled with their stench and rot. So the Prophet of Allah ʿĪsā (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions (may Allah be pleased with them) beseech Allah the Exalted, and Allah the Exalted sends birds with necks like those of Bactrian camels, which carry them off and cast them wherever Allah wills. Then Allah, Mighty and Majestic, sends a rain that no house of clay or hide can keep out, and it washes the earth until it leaves it like a polished mirror. Then it is said to the earth: Bring forth your fruit and restore your blessing. On that day a band of people will eat from a single pomegranate and shelter under its rind; the milk will be so blessed that the milch-camel will suffice a large group of people, the milch-cow will suffice a tribe, and the milch-ewe will suffice a clan. While they are in that state, Allah the Exalted sends a pleasant wind which takes them beneath their armpits and seizes the soul of every believer and every Muslim, and there remain the worst of people, coupling openly like donkeys; and upon them the Hour will come." Narrated by Muslim. His words "a road between al-Shām and al-ʿIrāq" mean a path between them. His word "ʿātha" (wreaked havoc) is with the undotted ʿayn and the three-dotted thāʾ; al-ʿayth means the most severe corruption. "Al-dhurā" is with a ḍammah on the dotted dhāl, meaning the tops of the humps; it is the plural of dhirwah, with a ḍammah or kasrah on the dhāl. "Al-yaʿāsīb": the male bees. "Jizlatayn": that is, two pieces. "Al-gharaḍ": the target shot at with arrows — that is, he shoots him a shot like the shot of an arrow at a target. "Al-mahrūdah" is with the undotted or dotted dāl, and it is the dyed garment. His words "lā yadān": that is, no power. "Al-naghaf": a worm. "Farsā": the plural of farīs, which is the slain one. "Al-zalaqah" is with a fatḥah on the zāy and the lām and with the qāf; it is also reported as al-zulfah, with a ḍammah on the zāy, a sukūn on the lām, and with the fāʾ, which is the mirror. "Al-ʿiṣābah": the group. "Al-risl," with a kasrah on the rāʾ: milk. "Al-liqḥah": the milch-animal. "Al-fiʾām," with a kasrah on the fāʾ followed by a lengthened hamzah: the group. "Al-fakhidh" of people: smaller than the tribe.

Ribʿī ibn Ḥirāsh said: I set out with Abū Masʿūd al-Anṣārī to Ḥudhayfah ibn al-Yamān (may Allah be pleased with them). Abū Masʿūd said to him: Relate to me what you heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the Dajjāl. He said: "The Dajjāl will come forth, and with him will be water and fire. As for what people see as water, it is a burning fire; and as for what people see as fire, it is cool, sweet water. So whoever among you reaches him, let him plunge into what he sees as fire, for it is sweet, wholesome water." Abū Masʿūd said: I too have heard it. Agreed upon.

ʿAbd Allah ibn ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Dajjāl will appear in my Ummah and remain forty — I do not know whether forty days, forty months, or forty years — then Allah the Exalted will send ʿĪsā, son of Mary (peace and blessings be upon him), who will seek him out and destroy him. Then the people will remain for seven years during which there is no enmity between any two. Then Allah, Mighty and Majestic, will send a cold wind from the direction of al-Shām, and there will not remain on the face of the earth anyone in whose heart is the weight of an atom of good or faith but it will take his soul; even if one of you were to enter into the heart of a mountain, it would enter upon him there until it took his soul. There will remain the worst of people, as frivolous as birds, with the dispositions of beasts of prey: they recognise no good and reject no evil. Satan will appear to them and say: Will you not respond? They will say: What do you command us? So he will command them to worship idols, while their provision is abundant and their life is good. Then the Trumpet will be blown, and no one will hear it but he will incline one side of his neck and raise the other. The first to hear it will be a man mending the watering-trough of his camels, and he will fall dead, and the people around him will fall dead. Then Allah will send — or He said: Allah will send down — a rain like dew, or like shade, from which the bodies of the people will grow. Then it will be blown into again, and behold, they will be standing, looking on. Then it will be said: O people, come to your Lord! And: Stop them, for they are to be questioned. Then it will be said: Bring out the contingent of the Fire. It will be asked: Out of how many? It will be said: Out of every thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine. That is the day that will turn children grey, and that is the Day when the Shin will be laid bare." Narrated by Muslim. "Al-līt" is the side of the neck; its meaning is that he lays down one side of his neck and raises the other.
وعن أنس - ﵁ - قال: قال رسول الله - ﷺ: «لَيسَ مِنْ بَلَدٍ إلاَّ سَيَطَؤُهُ الدَّجَّالُ إلاَّ مَكَّةَ وَالمَدِينَةَ؛ وَلَيْسَ نَقْبٌ مِنْ أنْقَابِهِمَا إلاَّ عَلَيْهِ المَلاَئِكَةُ صَافِّينَ تَحْرُسُهُمَا، فَيَنْزِلُ بالسَّبَخَةِ ، فَتَرْجُفُ المَدِينَةُ ثَلاَثَ رَجَفَاتٍ، يُخْرِجُ اللهُ مِنْهَا كُلَّ كافِرٍ وَمُنَافِقٍ». رواه مسلم.
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no land but the Dajjāl will tread it, except Makkah and Madinah; and there is no mountain-pass of theirs but the angels are upon it in ranks, guarding them both. Then he will alight at the salt-marsh, and Madinah will quake three times, by which Allah will expel from it every disbeliever and hypocrite." Narrated by Muslim.

وعن أبي سعيدٍ الخدري - ﵁ - عن النبيّ - ﷺ - قال: «يَخْرُجُ الدَّجَّالُ فَيَتَوجَّهُ قِبَلَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ المُؤمِنِينَ فَيَتَلَقَّاهُ المَسَالِحُ: مَسَالِحُ الدَّجَّال. فَيقُولُونَ لَهُ: إلى أيْنَ تَعْمِدُ فَيَقُولُ: أعْمِدُ إلى هذَا الَّذِي خَرَجَ. فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ: أوَمَا تُؤْمِنُ بِرَبِّنَا؟ فَيقُولُ: مَا بِرَبِّنَا خَفَاءٌ! فَيَقُولُونَ: اقْتُلُوهُ. فَيقُولُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: ألَيْسَ قَدْ نَهَاكُمْ رَبُّكُمْ أَنْ تَقْتُلُوا أحَدًا دُونَهُ، فَيَنْطَلِقُونَ بِهِ إلى الدَّجَّالِ، فَإذَا رَآهُ المُؤْمِنُ قالَ: يا أيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إنَّ هذَا الدَّجَّال الَّذي ذَكَرَ رَسُولُ الله - ﷺ -؛ فَيَأمُرُ الدَّجَّالُ بِهِ فَيُشَبَّحُ؛ فَيَقُولُ: خُذُوهُ وَشُجُّوهُ. فَيُوسَعُ ظَهْرُهُ وَبَطْنُهُ ضَرْبًا، فَيقُولُ: أَوَمَا تُؤْمِنُ بِي؟ فَيَقُولُ: أَنْتَ المَسِيحُ الكَذَّابُ! فَيُؤْمَرُ بِهِ، فَيُؤْشَرُ بِالمنْشَارِ مِنْ مَفْرِقِهِ حَتَّى يُفَرِّقَ بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهِ. ثُمَّ يَمْشِي الدَّجَّالُ بَيْنَ القِطْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لَهُ: قُمْ، فَيَسْتَوِي قَائِمًا. ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لَهُ: أَتُؤْمِنُ بِي؟ فَيَقُولُ: ما ازْدَدْتُ فِيكَ إلاَّ بَصِيرَةً. ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إنَّهُ لاَ يَفْعَلُ بَعْدِي بِأَحَدٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ؛ فَيَأخُذُهُ الدَّجَّالُ لِيَذْبَحَهُ، فَيَجْعَلُ اللهُ مِا بَيْنَ رَقَبَتِهِ إلَى تَرْقُوَتِهِ نُحَاسًا، فَلاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ إلَيهِ سَبيلًا، فَيَأخُذُهُ بِيَدَيْهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ فَيَقْذِفُ بِهِ، فَيَحْسَبُ النَّاسُ أَنَّهُ قَذَفَهُ إلَى النَّارِ، وَإنَّمَا أُلْقِيَ فِي الجَنَّةِ». فَقَالَ رَسُول الله - ﷺ: «هذا أعْظَمُ النَّاس شَهَادَةً عِندَ رَبِّ العَالَمِينَ». رواه مسلم. وروى البخاري بعضه بمعناه . «المسالِح»: هُمُ الخُفَرَاءُ والطَّلائِعُ.
Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī (may Allah be pleased with him) reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: "The Dajjāl will come forth, and a man from among the believers will set out towards him; the armed patrols — the patrols of the Dajjāl — will meet him and say to him: Where are you headed? He will say: I am headed for this one who has come forth. They will say to him: Do you not believe in our lord? He will say: There is nothing hidden about our Lord! They will say: Kill him. Then some of them will say to others: Did your lord not forbid you to kill anyone without his leave? So they will take him to the Dajjāl. When the believer sees him, he will say: O people, this is the Dajjāl of whom the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke. The Dajjāl will then order that he be stretched out, and say: Take him and split his head. So his back and belly will be thoroughly beaten. He will say: Do you not believe in me? He will say: You are the lying Messiah! Then he will be ordered, and he will be sawn with the saw from the parting of his head until it separates his two legs. Then the Dajjāl will walk between the two pieces, then say to him: Stand! and he will rise up standing. Then he will say to him: Do you believe in me? He will say: I have only increased in insight concerning you. Then he will say: O people, he will not do this to anyone else among the people after me. The Dajjāl will take him to slaughter him, but Allah will make what is between his neck and his collarbone into copper, and he will find no way to him. So he will take him by his hands and feet and hurl him; the people will think he has hurled him into the Fire, but he has only been cast into Paradise." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is the greatest of people in testimony before the Lord of the Worlds." Narrated by Muslim, and al-Bukhārī narrated part of it in its meaning. "Al-masāliḥ": they are the guards and the scouts.
وعن المغيرة بن شعبة - ﵁ - قال: ما سألَ أَحَدٌ رسولَ الله - ﷺ - عَن الدَّجَّالِ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا سَألْتُهُ؛ وإنَّهُ قَالَ لِي: «مَا يَضُرُّكَ» قُلْتُ: إنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: إنَّ مَعَهُ جَبَلَ خُبْزٍ وَنَهَرَ مَاءٍ. قالَ: «هُوَ أهْوَنُ عَلَى اللهِ مِنْ ذَلكَ». متفق عليه.
Al-Mughīrah ibn Shuʿbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: No one asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the Dajjāl more than I asked him. He said to me: "What harm can he do you?" I said: They say that with him is a mountain of bread and a river of water. He said: "He is more insignificant before Allah than that." Agreed upon.
وعن أنس - ﵁ - قال: قال رسول الله - ﷺ: «مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إلاَّ وَقَدْ أَنْذَرَ أُمَّتَهُ الأَعْوَرَ الكَذَّابَ، ألاَ إنَّهُ أعْوَرُ، وإنَّ رَبَّكُمْ - ﷿ - لَيْسَ بِأَعْوَرَ، مَكْتُوبٌ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ ك ف ر ». متفق عليه.
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no prophet but he warned his Ummah of the one-eyed liar. Indeed, he is one-eyed, and your Lord — Mighty and Majestic — is not one-eyed; between his eyes is written kāf-fāʾ-rāʾ (kāfir, 'disbeliever')." Agreed upon.
وَعَن أبي هريرةَ - ﵁ - قال: قالَ رسولُ اللهِ - ﷺ: «ألا أُحدِّثُكمْ حديثًا عن الدجالِ ما حدَّثَ بهِ نبيٌّ قَومَهُ! إنَّهُ أعورُ، وَإنَّهُ يجيءُ مَعَهُ بِمِثالِ الجنَّةِ والنَّارِ، فالتي يقولُ إنَّها الجَنَّةُ هي النَّار». متفقٌ عليهِ .
Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not tell you a ḥadīth about the Dajjāl such as no prophet ever told his people? He is one-eyed, and he will come bringing with him a likeness of Paradise and the Fire; so what he calls Paradise is in fact the Fire." Agreed upon.
وعن ابن عمر ﵄: أنَّ رسولَ الله - ﷺ - ذَكَرَ الدَّجَّالَ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَي النَّاسِ، فَقَالَ: «إنَّ اللهَ لَيْسَ بِأعْوَرَ، ألاَ إنَّ المَسِيحَ الدَّجَّالَ أَعْوَرُ العَيْنِ اليُمْنَى، كَأنَّ عَيْنَهُ عِنَبَةٌ طَافِيَةٌ ». متفق عليه.
Ibn ʿUmar (may Allah be pleased with them both) reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the Dajjāl in the midst of the people and said: "Indeed Allah is not one-eyed.

وعن أبي هريرة - ﵁: أنَّ رسولَ اللهِ - ﷺ - قال: «لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يُقَاتِلَ المُسْلِمُونَ اليَهُودَ، حَتَّى يَخْتَبِئَ اليَهُودِيُّ مِنْ وَرَاء الحَجَرِ وَالشَّجَرِ. فَيَقُولُ الحَجَرُ وَالشَّجَرُ: يَا مُسْلِمُ هذَا يَهُودِيٌّ خَلْفِي تَعَالَ فَاقْتُلْهُ؛ إلاَّ الغَرْقَدَ فإنَّهُ مِنْ شَجَرِ اليَهُودِ» . متفق عليه.
Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not come until the Muslims fight the Jews, until the Jew hides behind a stone or a tree, and the stone and the tree say: O Muslim, here is a Jew behind me — come and kill him! — except the box-thorn (al-gharqad), for it is one of the trees of the Jews." Agreed upon.

He (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By the One in whose hand is my soul, the world will not pass away until a man passes by a grave, rolls himself upon it, and says: Would that I were in the place of the occupant of this grave! — not out of religion, but only because of the affliction [of the trials of that time]." Agreed upon.

He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "They will leave Madinah at its very best, with nothing frequenting it but the foragers" — meaning the beasts of prey and the birds that seek food — "and the last to be gathered will be two shepherds from Muzaynah, heading for Madinah, driving their sheep with their calls; but they will find it desolate, until when they reach the Pass of al-Wadāʿ they will fall down on their faces." Agreed upon.

وعن أبي موسى الأشعريِّ - ﵁: أنَّ النبيَّ - ﷺ - قال: «لَيَأتِيَنَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يَطُوفُ الرَّجُلُ فِيهِ بالصَّدَقَةِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ فَلاَ يَجِدُ أَحَدًا يَأخُذُهَا مِنهُ، وَيُرَى الرَّجُلُ الوَاحِدُ يَتْبَعُهُ أرْبَعُونَ امْرَأَةً يَلُذْنَ بِهِ مِنْ قِلَّةِ الرِّجَالِ وَكَثْرَةِ النِّسَاءِ». رواه مسلم.
Abū Mūsā al-Ashʿarī (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There will surely come upon people a time when a man will go round with charity of gold but will not find anyone to accept it from him; and a single man will be seen followed by forty women taking refuge with him, because of the scarcity of men and the abundance of women." Narrated by Muslim.
وعن أبي هريرة - ﵁ - عن النبيِّ - ﷺ - قال: «اشْتَرَى رَجُلٌ مِنْ رَجُلٍ عَقَارًا، فَوَجَدَ الَّذِي اشْتَرَى العَقَارَ فِي عَقَارِهِ جَرَّةً فِيهَا ذَهَبٌ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الَّذِي اشْتَرَى العَقَارَ: خُذْ ذَهَبَكَ، إنَّمَا اشْتَرَيْتُ مِنْكَ الأَرْضَ وَلَمْ أشْتَرِ الذَّهَبَ، وَقَالَ الَّذِي لَهُ الأَرْضُ: إنَّمَا بِعْتُكَ الأَرْضَ وَمَا فِيهَا، فَتَحَاكَمَا إلَى رَجُلٍ، فَقَالَ الَّذِي تَحَاكَمَا إلَيْهِ: أَلَكُمَا وَلَدٌ؟ قالَ أحَدُهُما: لِي غُلاَمٌ، وقالَ الآخَرُ: لِي جَارِيَةٌ قال: أنْكِحَا الغُلاَمَ الجَارِيَةَ، وأنْفِقَا عَلَى أنْفُسِهمَا مِنْهُ وَتَصَدَّقَا». متفق عليه.
Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: "A man bought a piece of land from another man, and the one who bought the land found in his land a jar containing gold. The one who bought the land said to the seller: Take your gold; I only bought the land from you, I did not buy the gold.

A wolf came and made off with the son of one of them. She said to her companion: It is your son that it took. The other said: It is your son that it took. So they brought their dispute to Dāwūd (peace and blessings be upon him), who judged the child to belong to the elder. Then they went out to Sulaymān ibn Dāwūd (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him. He said: Bring me a knife; I will split him between the two of you. The younger said: Do not do it! May Allah have mercy on you — he is her son. So he judged the child to belong to the younger." Agreed upon.

She said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him; and whoever dislikes to meet Allah, Allah dislikes to meet him." I said: O Messenger of Allah, is it the dislike of death? For all of us dislike death. He said: "It is not so; rather, when the believer is given glad tidings of Allah's mercy, His good pleasure, and His Paradise, he loves to meet Allah, so Allah loves to meet him; and when the disbeliever is informed of Allah's punishment and His wrath, he dislikes to meet Allah, so Allah dislikes to meet him."

Abū al-Faḍl al-ʿAbbās ibn ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was present with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on the Day of Ḥunayn. Abū Sufyān ibn al-Ḥārith ibn ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib and I kept close to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and did not part from him, while the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was on a white mule of his. When the Muslims and the polytheists met, the Muslims turned and fled, but the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) began urging his mule towards the disbelievers. I was holding the bridle of the mule of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), restraining it so that it would not go fast, while Abū Sufyān was holding the stirrup of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O ʿAbbās, call out to the Companions of the Acacia Tree! ʿAbbās — who was a man with a loud voice — said: So I called out at the top of my voice: Where are the Companions of the Acacia Tree? By Allah, when they heard my voice, their turning back was like the turning of cattle towards their young, and they cried: Here we are, here we are! They and the disbelievers fought, while the call went out among the Anṣār, who were saying: O company of the Anṣār, O company of the Anṣār! Then the call was confined to the Banū al-Ḥārith ibn al-Khazraj. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), upon his mule, craning forward over it towards their fighting, said: This is when the battle has grown fierce. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took some pebbles and threw them at the faces of the disbelievers, then said: They are defeated, by the Lord of Muhammad! I went to look, and behold, the fighting was as it had been, as far as I could see; but by Allah, no sooner had he thrown the pebbles at them than I kept seeing their force grow blunt and their affair in retreat. Narrated by Muslim. "Al-waṭīs" is the oven; its meaning is that the war grew intense. His words "ḥaddahum" — with the undotted ḥāʾ — that is, their might.
وعن أبي هريرة - ﵁ - قال: قال رسولُ اللهِ - ﷺ: «أيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إنَّ اللهَ طَيِّبٌ لاَ يَقْبَلُ إلاَّ طَيِّبًا، وإنَّ اللهَ أَمَرَ المُؤمِنِينَ بِمَا أَمَرَ بِهِ المُرْسَلِينَ. فقالَ تعالى:
Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people, Allah is pure and accepts only what is pure, and Allah has commanded the believers with what He commanded the messengers. He, the Exalted, said:"
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلرُّسُلُ كُلُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلطَّيِّبَـٰتِ وَٱعْمَلُوا۟ صَـٰلِحًا ۖ إِنِّى بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ عَلِيمٌ
[Allāh said], "O messengers, eat from the good foods and work righteousness. Indeed I, of what you do, am Knowing.
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ كُلُوا۟ مِن طَيِّبَـٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنَـٰكُمْ وَٱشْكُرُوا۟ لِلَّهِ إِن كُنتُمْ إِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُونَ
O you who have believed, eat from the good [i.e., lawful] things which We have provided for you and be grateful to Allāh if it is [indeed] Him that you worship.
ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الرَّجُلَ يُطِيلُ السَّفَرَ أشْعثَ أغْبَرَ يَمُدُّ يَدَيْهِ إلَى السَّمَاءِ: يَا رَبِّ يَا رَبِّ، وَمَطْعَمُهُ حَرَامٌ، وَمَشْرَبُهُ حَرَامٌ، ومَلبسُهُ حرامٌ، وَغُذِّيَ بالْحَرَامِ، فَأَنَّى يُسْتَجَابُ لِذَلِكَ؟ رواه مسلم.
Then he mentioned the man who prolongs his journey, dishevelled and dust-covered, stretching out his hands to the heaven: O Lord, O Lord! — while his food is unlawful, his drink is unlawful, his clothing is unlawful, and he is nourished by the unlawful. So how can he be answered? Narrated by Muslim.
وعنه - ﵁ - قال: قال رسولُ اللهِ - ﷺ: «ثَلاَثَةٌ لاَ يُكَلِّمُهُمُ اللهُ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ، وَلاَ يُزَكِّيهِمْ، وَلاَ يَنْظُرُ إلَيْهِمْ، وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ: شَيْخٌ زَانٍ، وَمَلِكٌ كَذَّابٌ، وَعَائِلٌ مُسْتَكْبِرٌ». رواه مسلم. «العَائِلُ»: الفَقِيرُ.
He (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are three whom Allah will not speak to on the Day of Resurrection, nor purify, nor look at, and for them is a painful punishment: an old man who fornicates, a king who lies, and a poor man who is arrogant." Narrated by Muslim. "Al-ʿāʾil": the poor person.
وعنهُ - ﵁ - قال: قال رسولُ اللهِ - ﷺ: «سَيْحَانُ وَجَيْحَانُ وَالفُرَاتُ وَالنِّيلُ كُلٌّ مِنْ أَنْهَارِ الجَنَّةِ» . رواه مسلم.
He (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sayḥān, Jayḥān, the Euphrates, and the Nile are each among the rivers of Paradise." Narrated by Muslim.
وعنه، قال: أخَذَ رسُولُ اللهِ - ﷺ - بِيَدِي فَقَالَ: «خَلَقَ اللهُ التُّرْبَةَ يَومَ السَّبْتِ، وَخَلَقَ فيها الجِبَالَ يَومَ الأحَدِ، وَخَلَقَ الشَّجَرَ يَومَ الإثْنَينِ، وَخَلَقَ المَكْرُوهَ يَومَ الثُّلاَثَاءِ، وَخَلَقَ النُّورَ يَوْمَ الأربِعَاءِ، وَبَثَّ فِيهَا الدَّوابَّ يَومَ الخَمِيسِ، وَخَلَقَ آدَمَ - ﷺ - بَعْدَ العَصْرِ مِنْ يَومِ الجُمُعَةِ في آخِرِ الخَلْقِ فِي آخِرِ سَاعَةٍ مِنَ النَّهَارِ فِيمَا بَيْنَ العَصْرِ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ» . رواه مسلم.
He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took my hand and said: "Allah created the soil on Saturday, created in it the mountains on Sunday, created the trees on Monday, created the disliked things on Tuesday, created the light on Wednesday, spread the beasts in it on Thursday, and created Ādam (peace and blessings be upon him) after the ʿAṣr on Friday, at the end of creation, in the last hour of the day, in what is between the ʿAṣr and the night." Narrated by Muslim.
وعن أَبي سليمان خالد بن الوليد - ﵁ - قَالَ: لَقَدِ انْقَطَعتْ في يَدِي يَوْمَ مُؤْتَةَ تِسْعَةُ أسْيَافٍ، فَمَا بَقِيَ فِي يَدِي إِلاَّ صَفِيحَةٌ يَمَانِيَّةٌ. رواه البخاري.
Abū Sulaymān Khālid ibn al-Walīd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: On the Day of Muʾtah, nine swords broke in my hand, and nothing remained in my hand but a Yemeni blade. Narrated by al-Bukhārī.
وعن عمرو بن العاص - ﵁: أنَّه سَمِعَ رسولَ اللهِ - ﷺ - يقولُ: «إِذَا حَكَمَ الحَاكِمُ فَاجْتَهَدَ، ثُمَّ أَصَابَ، فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ، وَإِذَا حَكَمَ وَاجْتَهَدَ، فَأَخْطَأَ، فَلَهُ أَجْرٌ». متفق عَلَيْهِ.
ʿAmr ibn al-ʿĀṣ (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When a judge judges, exerting his effort (ijtihād), and is correct, he has two rewards; and when he judges, exerting his effort, but errs, he has one reward." Agreed upon.
وعن عائشة ﵂: أنَّ النبيَّ - ﷺ - قَالَ: «الحُمَّى مِنْ فَيْحِ جَهَنَّمَ فَأَبْرِدُوهَا بِالمَاءِ». متفق عَلَيْهِ.
ʿĀʾishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Fever is from the surge of the heat of Hell, so cool it with water." Agreed upon.
وعنها ﵂، عن النبيِّ - ﷺ - قَالَ: «مَنْ مَاتَ وَعَلَيْهِ صَومٌ، صَامَ عَنْهُ وَلِيُّهُ» متفق عَلَيْهِ. وَالمُخْتَارُ جَوَازُ الصَّومِ عَمَّنْ مَاتَ وَعَلَيْهِ صَوْمٌ لِهَذَا الحَدِيثِ، وَالمُرادُ بالوَلِيِّ: القَرِيبُ وَارِثًا كَانَ أَوْ غَيْرَ وَارِثٍ.
She (may Allah be pleased with her) reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: "Whoever dies while owing a fast, his guardian shall fast on his behalf." Agreed upon. The preferred view is the permissibility of fasting on behalf of one who died while owing a fast, on account of this ḥadīth; and what is meant by the guardian is the relative, whether an heir or not.
وعن عوف بن مالِك بن الطُّفَيْلِ: أنَّ عائشة ﵂، حُدِّثَتْ أنَّ عبدَ اللهِ بن الزبير ﵄، قَالَ في بَيْعٍ أَوْ عَطَاءٍ أعْطَتْهُ عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ تَعَالَى عنها: واللهِ لَتَنْتَهِيَنَّ عَائِشَةُ أَوْ لأَحْجُرَنَّ عَلَيْهَا، قالَتْ: أَهُوَ قَالَ هَذَا! قالوا: نَعَمْ. قَالَتْ: هُوَ للهِ عَلَيَّ نَذْرٌ أَنْ لا أُكَلِّمَ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ أَبَدًا، فَاسْتَشْفَعَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ إِلَيْهَا حِيْنَ طَالَتِ الهِجْرَةُ. فَقَالَتْ: لاَ، واللهِ لاَ أشْفَعُ فِيهِ أبدًا، وَلاَ أَتَحَنَّثُ إِلَى نَذْرِي. فَلَمَّا طَالَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى ابْنِ الزُّبَيرِ كَلَّمَ المِسْوَرَ بْنَ مَخْرَمَةَ، وَعبدَ الرحْمَانِ ابْنَ الأسْوَدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ وقَالَ لَهُمَا: أنْشُدُكُمَا اللهَ لَمَا أدْخَلْتُمَانِي عَلَى عَائِشَةَ ﵂، فَإنَّهَا لاَ يَحِلُّ لَهَا أَنْ تَنْذِرَ قَطِيعَتِي، فَأقْبَلَ بِهِ المِسْوَرُ، وَعَبدُ الرحْمَانِ حَتَّى اسْتَأذَنَا عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالاَ: السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكِ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ، أنَدْخُلُ؟ قالت عَائِشَةُ: ادْخُلُوا. قالوا: كُلُّنَا؟ قالتْ: نَعَمْ ادْخُلُوا كُلُّكُمْ، وَلاَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ معَهُمَا ابْنَ الزُّبَيرِ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلُوا دَخَلَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيرِ الحِجَابَ فَاعْتَنَقَ عَائِشَةَ ﵂، وَطَفِقَ يُنَاشِدُهَا وَيَبْكِي، وَطَفِقَ المِسْوَرُ، وَعَبدُ الرَّحْمَانِ يُنَاشِدَانِهَا إِلاَّ كَلَّمَتْهُ وَقَبِلَتْ مِنْهُ، وَيَقُولانِ: إنَّ النَّبِيَّ - ﷺ - نَهَى عَمَّا قَدْ عَلِمْتِ مِنَ الهِجْرَةِ؛ وَلاَ يَحِلُّ لِمُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يَهْجُرَ أَخَاهُ فَوقَ ثَلاَثِ لَيَالٍ، فَلَمَّا أَكْثَرُوا عَلَى عَائِشَة مِنَ التَّذْكِرَةِ وَالتَّحْرِيجِ، طَفِقَتْ تُذَكرُهُمَا وَتَبْكِي، وَتَقُولُ: إنِّي نَذَرْتُ وَالنَّذْرُ شَدِيدٌ، فَلَمْ يَزَالاَ بِهَا حَتَّى كَلَّمَتِ ابْنَ الزُّبَيرِ، وأعْتَقَتْ فِي نَذْرِهَا ذَلِكَ أرْبَعِينَ رَقَبَةً، وَكَانَتْ تَذْكُرُ نَذْرَهَا بَعدَ ذَلِكَ فَتَبكِي حَتَّى تَبِلَّ دُمُوعُهَا خِمَارَهَا. رواه البخاري.
ʿAwf ibn Mālik ibn al-Ṭufayl reported that ʿĀʾishah (may Allah be pleased with her) was told that ʿAbd Allah ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) had said, concerning a sale or a gift that ʿĀʾishah had given: By Allah, ʿĀʾishah must desist, or I will place her under interdiction. She said: Did he say this? They said: Yes. She said: I make it a binding vow to Allah that I will never speak to Ibn al-Zubayr. When the estrangement grew long, Ibn al-Zubayr sought intercessors to her, but she said: No, by Allah, I will never accept intercession for him, nor will I break my vow. When that grew long for Ibn al-Zubayr, he spoke to al-Miswar ibn Makhramah and ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn al-Aswad ibn ʿAbd Yaghūth and said to them: I implore you by Allah to bring me in to ʿĀʾishah (may Allah be pleased with her), for it is not lawful for her to vow to cut me off. So al-Miswar and ʿAbd al-Raḥmān brought him along until they sought permission to enter upon ʿĀʾishah and said: Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings; may we enter? ʿĀʾishah said: Enter. They said: All of us? She said: Yes, enter, all of you — not knowing that Ibn al-Zubayr was with them. When they entered, Ibn al-Zubayr went inside the curtain, embraced ʿĀʾishah (may Allah be pleased with her), and began imploring her and weeping, while al-Miswar and ʿAbd al-Raḥmān kept urging her to speak to him and accept from him, saying: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade what you know of estrangement; it is not lawful for a Muslim to shun his brother for more than three nights. When they pressed ʿĀʾishah much with reminders and pleas, she began reminding them and weeping, saying: I made a vow, and the vow is a serious matter. They kept at her until she spoke to Ibn al-Zubayr, and she freed forty slaves in atonement for that vow of hers. Afterwards she would remember her vow and weep until her tears soaked her headscarf. Narrated by al-Bukhārī.
وعن عُقْبَةَ بن عامِرٍ - ﵁: أنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - ﷺ - خَرَجَ إِلَى قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ، فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِمْ بَعْدَ ثَمَانِ سِنينَ كَالمُوَدِّعِ لِلأَحْيَاءِ وَالأَمْوَاتِ، ثُمَّ طَلَعَ إِلَى المِنْبَرِ، فَقَالَ: «إنِّي بَيْنَ أيْدِيكُمْ فَرَطٌ وَأَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَيْكُمْ وإنَّ مَوْعِدَكُمُ الحَوْضُ، وإنِّي لأَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مَقَامِي هَذَا، أَلاَ وإنِّي لَسْتُ أَخْشَى عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تُشْرِكُوا، وَلَكِنْ أخْشَى عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا أَنْ تَنَافَسُوهَا» قَالَ: فَكَانَتْ آخِرَ نَظْرَةٍ نَظَرْتُهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - ﷺ. متفق عَلَيْهِ. وفي رواية: «وَلَكِنِّي أَخْشَى عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا أَنْ تَنَافَسُوا فِيهَا، وَتَقْتَتِلُوا فَتَهْلِكُوا كما هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ». قَالَ عُقْبَةُ: فكانَ آخِرَ مَا رَأيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - ﷺ - عَلَى المِنْبَرِ. وفي روايةٍ قَالَ: «إنِّي فَرَطٌ لَكُمْ وَأنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَيْكُمْ وإنِّي واللهِ لأَنْظُرُ إِلَى حَوْضِي الآنَ، وإنِّي أُعْطِيتُ مَفَاتِيحَ خَزَائِنِ الأَرْضِ، أَوْ مَفَاتِيحَ الأرْضِ، وإنِّي واللهِ مَا أخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تُشْرِكُوا بَعْدِي، وَلَكِنْ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تَنَافَسُوا فِيهَا». وَالمُرَادُ بِالصَّلاَةِ عَلَى قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ: الدُّعَاءُ لَهُمْ، لاَ الصَّلاَةُ المَعْرُوفَةُ.
ʿUqbah ibn ʿĀmir (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went out to the slain of Uḥud and prayed over them after eight years, as one bidding farewell to the living and the dead. Then he ascended the pulpit and said: "I am your forerunner, and I am a witness over you. Your appointed meeting is at the Basin, and indeed I am looking at it from this standing-place of mine. Behold, I do not fear for you that you will associate partners with Allah, but I fear for you the world, that you will compete over it." He said: That was the last look I gave the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Agreed upon. In one narration: "But I fear for you the world, that you will compete over it, fight one another, and perish as those before you perished." ʿUqbah said: That was the last time I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) upon the pulpit. In another narration he said: "I am your forerunner, and I am a witness over you. By Allah, I am looking at my Basin now, and I have been given the keys of the treasures of the earth — or the keys of the earth. By Allah, I do not fear for you that you will associate partners after me, but I fear for you that you will compete over it." What is meant by praying over the slain of Uḥud is supplicating for them, not the well-known [funeral] prayer.
وعن أَبي زيد عمرِو بن أخْطَبَ الأنصاريِّ - ﵁ - قَالَ: صلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - ﷺ - الفَجْرَ، وَصَعِدَ المِنْبَرَ، فَخَطَبَنَا حَتَّى حَضَرَتِ الظُّهْرُ، فَنَزَلَ فَصَلَّى، ثُمَّ صَعِدَ المِنْبَرَ فَخَطَبَنَا حَتَّى حَضَرَتِ العَصْرُ، ثُمَّ نَزَلَ فَصَلَّى، ثُمَّ صَعِدَ المِنْبَرَ فَخَطَبَنَا حَتَّى غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ، فَأَخْبَرَنَا بِمَا كَانَ وَبِمَا هُوَ كَائِنٌ، فَأَعْلَمُنَا أَحْفَظُنَا. رواه مسلم.
Abū Zayd ʿAmr ibn Akhṭab al-Anṣārī (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in the Fajr prayer, then ascended the pulpit and preached to us until the Ẓuhr came in; so he came down and prayed, then ascended the pulpit and preached to us until the ʿAṣr came in; then he came down and prayed, then ascended the pulpit and preached to us until the sun set. He informed us of what had been and what is to be, so the most knowledgeable of us is the one who memorised the most of it. Narrated by Muslim.
وعن عائشة ﵂، قالت: قَالَ النَّبيُّ - ﷺ: «مَنْ نَذَرَ أَنْ يُطِيعَ اللهَ فَلْيُطِعْهُ، وَمَنْ نَذَرَ أَنْ يَعْصِيَ اللهَ فَلاَ يَعْصِهِ». رواه البخاري.

Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever kills a gecko with the first blow has such-and-such good deeds; whoever kills it on the second blow has such-and-such good deeds, less than the first; and if he kills it on the third blow, he has such-and-such good deeds." In another narration: "Whoever kills a gecko with the first blow has a hundred good deeds recorded for him; on the second, less than that; and on the third, less than that." Narrated by Muslim. The scholars of language said: "Al-wazagh" are the large ones of the gecko (sāmm abraṣ).
وعن أَبي هريرة - ﵁ - أنَّ رَسُول اللهِ - ﷺ - قَالَ: «قَالَ رَجُلٌ لأَتَصَدَّقَنَّ بِصَدَقَةٍ، فَخَرَجَ بِصَدَقَتِهِ فَوَضَعَهَا فِي يَدِ سَارِقٍ، فَأَصْبَحُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ: تُصُدِّقَ عَلَى سَارِقٍ! فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الحَمْدُ لأتَصَدَّقَنَّ بِصَدَقَةٍ، فَخَرَجَ بِصَدَقَتِهِ فَوَضَعَهَا في يَدِ زَانِيَةٍ؛ فَأصْبَحُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ: تُصُدِّقَ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى زَانِيَةٍ! فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الحَمْدُ عَلَى زَانِيَةٍ! لأتَصَدَّقَنَّ بِصَدَقَةٍ، فَخَرَجَ بِصَدَقَتِهِ فوَضَعَهَا في يَدِ غَنِيٍّ، فَأَصْبَحُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ: تُصُدِّقَ عَلَى غَنِيٍّ؟ فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الحَمْدُ عَلَى سَارِقٍ وَعَلَى زَانِيَةٍ وعلى غَنِيٍّ! فَأُتِيَ فقيل لَهُ: أمَّا صَدَقَتُكَ عَلَى سَارقٍ فَلَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يَسْتَعِفَّ عَنْ سَرِقَتِهِ، وأمَّا الزَّانِيَةُ فَلَعَلَّهَا تَسْتَعِفُّ عَنْ زِنَاهَا، وأمَّا الغَنِيُّ فَلَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يَعْتَبِرَ فَيُنْفِقَ مِمَّا أَعْطَاهُ اللهُ». رواه البخاري بلفظه ومسلم بمعناه.
Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A man said: I shall certainly give a charity. So he went out with his charity and placed it in the hand of a thief. In the morning the people were saying: A charity was given to a thief! He said: O Allah, to You be praise. I shall certainly give a charity. So he went out with his charity and placed it in the hand of a prostitute. In the morning the people were saying: A charity was given to a prostitute last night! He said: O Allah, to You be praise — to a prostitute! I shall certainly give a charity. So he went out with his charity and placed it in the hand of a rich man. In the morning the people were saying: A charity was given to a rich man? He said: O Allah, to You be praise — to a thief, a prostitute, and a rich man! Then he was approached and told: As for your charity to a thief, perhaps it will make him abstain from his theft; as for the prostitute, perhaps she will abstain from her fornication; and as for the rich man, perhaps he will take heed and spend from what Allah has given him." Narrated by al-Bukhārī in its wording and by Muslim in its meaning.
وعنه، قَالَ: كنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - ﷺ - في دَعْوَةٍ، فَرُفِعَ إِلَيْهِ الذِّرَاعُ، وَكَانَتْ تُعْجِبُهُ، فَنَهَسَ مِنْهَا نَهْسَةً وقال: «أَنَا سَيِّدُ النَّاسِ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ، هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مِمَّ ذَاكَ؟ يَجْمَعُ اللهُ الأوَّلِينَ وَالآخِرِينَ في صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ، فَيُبْصِرُهُمُ النَّاظِرُ، وَيُسْمِعُهُمُ الدَّاعِي، وَتَدْنُو مِنْهُمُ الشَّمْسُ، فَيَبْلُغُ النَّاسُ مِنَ الغَمِّ وَالكَرْبِ مَا لاَ يُطِيقُونَ وَلاَ يَحْتَمِلُونَ، فَيقُولُ النَّاسُ: أَلاَّ تَرَوْنَ مَا أَنْتُمْ فِيهِ إِلَى مَا بَلَغَكُمْ، أَلاَ تَنْظُرُونَ مَنْ يَشْفَعُ لَكُمْ إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ؟ فَيقُولُ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ لِبَعْضٍ: أبُوكُمْ آدَمُ، فَيَأتُونَهُ فَيقُولُونَ: يَا آدَمُ أَنْتَ أَبُو البَشَرِ، خَلَقَكَ اللهُ بِيَدِهِ، وَنَفَخَ فِيكَ مِنْ رُوحِهِ، وأمَرَ المَلاَئِكَةَ فَسَجَدُوا لَكَ، وأَسْكَنَكَ الجَنَّةَ، ألاَ تَشْفَعُ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ؟ ألاَ تَرَى إِلَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ وَمَا بَلَغْنَا؟ فَقَالَ: إنَّ رَبِّي غَضِبَ اليَوْمَ غَضَبًا لَمْ يَغْضَبْ قَبْلَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَلا يَغْضَبُ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَإنَّهُ نَهَانِي عَنِ الشَّجَرَةِ فَعَصَيْتُ، نَفْسِي نَفْسِي نَفْسِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى غَيْرِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى نُوحٍ، فَيَأتُونَ نوحًا فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا نُوحُ، أَنْتَ أوَّلُ الرُّسُلِ إِلَى أَهلِ الأرْضِ، وَقَدْ سَمَّاكَ اللهُ عَبْدًا شَكُورًا، ألاَ تَرَى إِلَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ، ألاَ تَرَى إِلَى مَا بَلَغْنَا، ألاَ تَشْفَعُ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ؟ فَيقُولُ: إنَّ رَبِّي غَضِبَ اليَوْمَ غَضَبًا لَمْ يَغْضَبْ قَبْلَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَلَنْ يَغْضَبَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَإنَّهُ قَدْ كَانَتْ لِي دَعْوَةٌ دَعَوْتُ بِهَا عَلَى قَوْمِي، نَفْسِي نَفْسِي نَفْسِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى غَيْرِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى إبْرَاهِيمَ، فَيَأتُونَ إبْرَاهِيمَ فَيقُولُونَ: يَا إبْرَاهِيمُ، أنْتَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ وَخَلِيلُهُ مِنْ أهْلِ الأرْضِ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ، ألاَ تَرَى إِلَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ؟ فَيقُولُ لَهُمْ: إنَّ رَبِّي قَدْ غَضِبَ اليَوْمَ غَضَبًا لَمْ يَغْضَبْ قَبْلَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَلَنْ يَغْضَبَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَإنَّي كُنْتُ كَذَبْتُ ثَلاثَ كَذبَاتٍ؛ نَفْسِي نَفْسِي نَفْسِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى غَيْرِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى مُوسَى، فَيَأتُونَ مُوسَى فَيقُولُونَ: يَا مُوسَى أنَتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ، فَضَّلَكَ اللهُ بِرسَالاَتِهِ وَبِكَلاَمِهِ عَلَى النَّاسِ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ، ألاَ تَرَى إِلَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ؟ فيقُولُ: إنَّ رَبِّي قَدْ غَضِبَ اليَوْمَ غَضَبًا لَمْ يَغْضَبْ قَبْلَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَلَنْ يَغْضَبَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَإنَّي قَدْ قَتَلْتُ نَفْسًا لَمْ أُومَرْ بِقَتْلِهَا، نَفْسِي نَفْسِي نَفْسِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى غَيْرِي؛ اذْهَبُوا إِلَى عِيسَى. فَيَأتُونَ عِيسَى فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا عِيسَى، أنْتَ رَسُولُ الله وَكَلِمَتُهُ ألْقَاهَا إِلَى مَرْيَمَ وَرُوحٌ مِنْهُ، وَكَلَّمْتَ النَّاسَ في المَهْدِ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ، ألاَ تَرَى إِلَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ؟ فيَقُولُ عِيسَى: إنَّ رَبِّي قَدْ غَضِبَ اليَوْمَ غَضَبًا لَمْ يَغْضَبْ قَبْلَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَلَنْ يَغْضَبَ بَعْدَهُ مِثْلَهُ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ ذَنْبًا، نَفْسِي نَفْسِي نَفْسِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى غَيْرِي، اذْهَبُوا إِلَى مُحَمَّدٍ - ﷺ». وفي روايةٍ: «فَيَأتُونِي فَيَقُولُونَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ أنتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ وخَاتَمُ الأنْبِياءِ، وَقَدْ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ، اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّكَ، ألاَ تَرَى إِلَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ؟ فَأَنْطَلِقُ فَآتِي تَحْتَ العَرْشِ فَأَقَعُ سَاجِدًا لِرَبِّي، ثُمَّ يَفْتَحُ اللهُ عَلَيَّ مِنْ مَحَامِدِهِ، وَحُسْنِ الثَّنَاءِ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَفْتَحْهُ عَلَى أحَدٍ قَبْلِي، ثُمَّ يُقَالُ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأسَكَ، سَلْ تُعْطَهُ، وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ، فَأَرْفَعُ رَأْسِي، فَأَقُولُ: أُمَّتِي يَا رَبِّ، أُمَّتِي يَا رَبِّ، أُمَّتِي يَا رَبِّ، فَيُقَالُ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ أدْخِلْ مِنْ أُمَّتِكَ مَنْ لاَ حِسَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ البَابِ الأيْمَنِ مِنْ أَبْوَابِ الجَنَّةِ، وَهُمْ شُرَكَاءُ النَّاسِ فِيمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ مِنَ الأبْوَابِ». ثُمَّ قَالَ: «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، إنَّ مَا بَيْنَ المِصْرَاعَيْنِ مِنْ مَصَارِيعِ الجَنَّةِ كَمَا بَيْنَ مَكَّةَ وَهَجَرَ، أَوْ كَمَا بَيْنَ مَكَّةَ وَبُصْرَى» . متفق عَلَيْهِ.
He said: We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at a banquet, and the foreleg was brought to him, which he used to like, so he took a bite of it and said: "I am the master of mankind on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know from what that is? Allah will gather the first and the last on a single plain, so that a beholder can see them all and a caller can make them all hear; the sun will draw near to them, and the people will reach such grief and distress that they can neither bear nor endure it. The people will say: Do you not see what you are in, and what has befallen you? Will you not seek someone to intercede for you with your Lord? Some of the people will say to others: Go to your father Ādam. So they come to him and say: O Ādam, you are the father of mankind; Allah created you with His hand, breathed into you of His spirit, commanded the angels and they prostrated to you, and settled you in Paradise. Will you not intercede for us with your Lord? Do you not see what we are in and what has befallen us? He says: My Lord has become angry today with an anger the like of which He was never angry before and will never be angry after; He forbade me the tree but I disobeyed. Myself, myself, myself! Go to someone other than me; go to Nūḥ. So they come to Nūḥ and say: O Nūḥ, you are the first of the messengers to the people of the earth, and Allah named you a grateful servant; do you not see what we are in? Do you not see what has befallen us? Will you not intercede for us with your Lord? He says: My Lord has become angry today with an anger the like of which He was never angry before and will never be angry after; and I had a supplication that I made against my people. Myself, myself, myself! Go to someone other than me; go to Ibrāhīm. So they come to Ibrāhīm and say: O Ibrāhīm, you are the Prophet of Allah and His intimate friend from the people of the earth; intercede for us with your Lord; do you not see what we are in? He says to them: My Lord has become angry today with an anger the like of which He was never angry before and will never be angry after; and I told three untruths. Myself, myself, myself! Go to someone other than me; go to Mūsā. So they come to Mūsā and say: O Mūsā, you are the Messenger of Allah; Allah favoured you with His messages and His speech over mankind; intercede for us with your Lord; do you not see what we are in? He says: My Lord has become angry today with an anger the like of which He was never angry before and will never be angry after; and I killed a soul I was not commanded to kill. Myself, myself, myself! Go to someone other than me; go to ʿĪsā. So they come to ʿĪsā and say: O ʿĪsā, you are the Messenger of Allah and His word which He cast to Mary and a spirit from Him, and you spoke to people in the cradle; intercede for us with your Lord; do you not see what we are in? ʿĪsā says: My Lord has become angry today with an anger the like of which He was never angry before and will never be angry after — and he mentioned no sin. Myself, myself, myself! Go to someone other than me; go to Muḥammad (peace and blessings be upon him)." In another narration: "So they come to me and say: O Muḥammad, you are the Messenger of Allah and the seal of the prophets, and Allah has forgiven you your past and future sins; intercede for us with your Lord; do you not see what we are in? So I set out and come beneath the Throne and fall prostrate to my Lord. Then Allah opens to me of His praises and the beauty of commendation of Him such as He never opened to anyone before me. Then it is said: O Muḥammad, raise your head; ask and you will be given; intercede and your intercession will be accepted. So I raise my head and say: My Ummah, O Lord! My Ummah, O Lord! My Ummah, O Lord! It is said: O Muḥammad, admit those of your Ummah who have no reckoning through the right gate of the gates of Paradise; and they are partners of the [other] people in what is besides that of the gates." Then he said: "By the One in whose hand is my soul, the distance between the two leaves of the leaves of Paradise is like that between Makkah and Hajar, or like that between Makkah and Buṣrā."

وعن ابن عباس ﵄، قَالَ: جَاءَ إبراهيم - ﷺ - بِأُمِّ إسْماعِيلَ وَبِابْنِهَا إسْمَاعِيل وَهِيَ تُرْضِعُهُ، حَتَّى وَضَعهَا عِنْدَ البَيْتِ، عِنْدَ دَوْحَةٍ فَوقَ زَمْزَمَ في أعْلَى المَسْجِدِ، وَلَيْسَ بِمَكَّةَ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَحَدٌ، وَلَيْسَ بِهَا مَاءٌ، فَوَضَعَهُمَا هُنَاكَ، وَوَضَعَ عِنْدَهُمَا جِرَابًا فِيهِ تَمْرٌ، وَسِقَاءً فِيهِ مَاءٌ، ثُمَّ قَفَّى إبْرَاهِيمُ مُنْطَلِقًا، فَتَبِعَتْهُ أمُّ إسْمَاعِيلَ فَقَالَتْ: يَا إبْرَاهِيمُ، أَيْنَ تَذْهَبُ وَتَتْرُكُنَا بِهذَا الوَادِي الَّذِي لَيْسَ فِيهِ أنِيسٌ وَلاَ شَيْءٌ؟ فَقَالَتْ لَهُ ذَلِكَ مِرَارًا، وَجَعَلَ لاَ يَلْتَفِتُ إِلَيْهَا، قَالَتْ لَهُ: آللهُ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَتْ: إذًا لاَ يُضَيِّعُنَا؛ ثُمَّ رَجَعَتْ، فَانْطَلَقَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ - ﷺ - حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ عِنْدَ الثَّنِيَّةِ حَيْثُ لاَ يَرُونَهُ، اسْتَقْبَلَ بِوَجْهِهِ البَيْتَ، ثُمَّ دَعَا بِهؤُلاءِ الدَّعَوَاتِ، فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ: ﴿رَبِّ إنِّي أَسْكَنْتُ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِي بِوَادٍ غَيْرِ ذِي زَرْعٍ﴾ حَتَّى بَلَغَ ﴿يَشْكُرُونَ﴾ [إبراهيم: ٣٧]. وَجَعَلَتْ أُمُّ إسْمَاعِيلَ تُرْضِعُ إسْمَاعِيلَ وَتَشْرَبُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ المَاءِ، حَتَّى إِذَا نَفِدَ مَا فِي السِّقَاءِ عَطِشَتْ، وَعَطِشَ ابْنُهَا، وَجَعَلتْ تَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ يَتَلَوَّى - أَوْ قَالَ يَتَلَبَّطُ - فَانْطَلَقَتْ كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ تَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهِ، فَوَجَدَتِ الصَّفَا أَقْرَبَ جَبَلٍ في الأرْضِ يَلِيهَا، فَقَامَتْ عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ اسْتَقْبَلَتِ الوَادِي تَنْظُرُ هَلْ تَرَى أحَدًا؟ فَلَمْ تَرَ أحَدًا. فَهَبَطَتْ مِنَ الصَّفَا حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغَتِ الوَادِي، رَفَعَت طَرفَ دِرْعِهَا، ثُمَّ سَعَتْ سَعْيَ الإنْسَانِ المَجْهُودِ حَتَّى جَاوَزَتِ الوَادِي، ثُمَّ أتَتِ المَرْوَةَ فَقَامَتْ عَلَيْهَا، فَنَظَرَتْ هَلْ تَرَى أحَدًا؟ فَلَمْ تَرَ أَحَدًا، فَفَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ. قَالَ ابن عباس ﵄: قَالَ النبيُّ - ﷺ: «فَلذَلِكَ سَعْيُ النَّاسِ بَيْنَهُمَا»، فَلَمَّا أَشْرَفَتْ عَلَى المَرْوَةِ سَمِعَتْ صَوْتًا، فَقَالَتْ: صَهْ - تُريدُ نَفْسَهَا - ثُمَّ تَسَمَّعَتْ، فَسَمِعَتْ أَيضًا، فَقَالَتْ: قَدْ أسْمَعْتَ إنْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ غَوَاثٌ، فَإذَا هِيَ بِالمَلَكِ عِنْدَ مَوْضِعِ زَمْزَمَ، فَبَحَثَ بِعَقِبِهِ - أَوْ قَالَ بِجَنَاحِهِ - حَتَّى ظَهَرَ المَاءُ، فَجَعَلَتْ تُحَوِّضُهُ وَتَقُولُ بِيَدِهَا هَكَذَا، وَجَعَلَتْ تَغْرِفُ مِنَ المَاءِ في سِقَائِهَا وَهُوَ يَفُورُ بَعْدَ مَا تَغْرِفُ. وفي رواية: بِقَدَرِ مَا تَغْرِفُ. قَالَ ابن عباس ﵄: قَالَ النبيُّ - ﷺ: «رَحِمَ اللهُ أُمَّ إسْمَاعِيلَ لَوْ تَرَكَتْ زَمْزَمَ - أَوْ قَالَ لَوْ لَمْ تَغْرِفْ مِنَ المَاءِ - لَكَانَتْ زَمْزَمُ عَيْنًا مَعِينًا» قَالَ: فَشَرِبَتْ وَأرْضَعَتْ وَلَدَهَا، فَقَالَ لَهَا المَلَكُ: لاَ تَخَافُوا الضَّيْعَةَ فَإنَّ هاهُنَا بَيْتًا للهِ يَبْنِيهِ هَذَا الغُلاَمُ وَأَبُوهُ، وإنَّ اللهَ لاَ يُضَيِّعُ أهْلَهُ، وكان البَيْتُ مُرْتَفِعًا مِنَ الأرْضِ كَالرَّابِيَةِ، تَأتِيهِ السُّيُولُ، فَتَأخُذُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ، فَكَانَتْ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى مَرَّتْ بِهِمْ رُفْقَةٌ مِنْ جُرْهُمٍ، أَوْ أهْلُ بَيْتٍ مِنْ جُرْهُمٍ مُقْبِلينَ مِنْ طَرِيقِ كَدَاءَ، فَنَزلُوا في أسْفَلِ مَكَّةَ؛ فَرَأَوْا طَائِرًا عائِفًا، فَقَالُوا: إنَّ هَذَا الطَّائِرَ لَيَدُورُ عَلَى مَاءٍ، لَعَهْدُنَا بهذا الوَادِي وَمَا فِيهِ مَاء. فَأَرْسَلُوا جَرِيًّا أَوْ جَرِيَّيْنِ، فَإذَا هُمْ بِالمَاءِ. فَرَجَعُوا فَأَخْبَرُوهُمْ؛ فَأَقْبَلُوا وَأُمُّ إسْمَاعِيلَ عِنْدَ المَاءِ، فقالوا: أتَأذَنِينَ لَنَا أَنْ نَنْزِلَ عِنْدَكِ؟ قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، وَلَكِنْ لاَ حَقَّ لَكُمْ في المَاءِ، قَالُوا: نَعَمْ. قَالَ ابن عباس: قَالَ النبيُّ - ﷺ: «فَألْفَى ذَلِكَ أُمَّ إسْمَاعِيلَ، وهي تُحِبُّ الأنْسَ» فَنَزَلُوا، فَأرْسَلُوا إِلَى أهْلِهِمْ فَنَزَلُوا مَعَهُمْ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِهَا أهْلَ أبْيَاتٍ وَشَبَّ الغُلاَمُ وَتَعَلَّمَ العَرَبِيَّةَ مِنْهُمْ، وَأنْفَسَهُمْ وَأَعْجَبَهُمْ حِيْنَ شَبَّ، فَلَمَّا أدْرَكَ زَوَّجُوهُ امْرَأةً مِنْهُمْ: وَمَاتَتْ أُمُّ إسْمَاعِيلَ، فَجَاءَ إبْرَاهِيمُ بَعْدَما تَزَوَّجَ إسْمَاعِيلُ يُطَالِعُ تَرِكَتَهُ، فَلَمْ يَجِدْ إسْمَاعِيلَ؛ فَسَأَلَ امْرَأتَهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَتْ: خرَجَ يَبْتَغِي لَنَا - وفي روايةٍ: يَصِيدُ لَنَا - ثُمَّ سَأَلَهَا عَنْ عَيْشِهِمْ وَهَيْئَتِهِمْ، فَقَالَتْ: نَحْنُ بِشَرٍّ، نَحْنُ فِي ضِيقٍ وَشِدَّةٍ؛ وَشَكَتْ إِلَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَإذَا جَاءَ زَوْجُكِ اقْرَئِي عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمَ، وَقُولِي لَهُ يُغَيِّرْ عَتَبَةَ بَابِهِ. فَلَمَّا جَاءَ إسْمَاعِيلُ كَأَنَّهُ آنَسَ شَيْئًا، فَقَالَ: هَلْ جَاءكُمْ مِنْ أحَدٍ؟ قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، جَاءنا شَيْخٌ كَذَا وَكَذَا، فَسَأَلَنَا عَنْكَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَسَأَلَنِي: كَيْفَ عَيْشُنَا، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّا في جَهْدٍ وَشِدَّةٍ. قَالَ: فَهَلْ أَوْصَاكِ بِشَيءٍ؟ قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أقْرَأَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلاَمَ، وَيَقُولُ: غَيِّرْ عَتَبَةَ بَابِكَ، قَالَ: ذَاكَ أبِي وَقَدْ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُفَارِقَكِ! الْحَقِي بِأَهْلِكِ. فَطَلَّقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَ مِنْهُمْ أُخْرَى، فَلَبِثَ عَنْهُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ أَتَاهُمْ بَعْدُ فَلَمْ يَجِدْهُ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَى امْرَأتِهِ فَسَألَ عَنْهُ. قَالَتْ: خَرَجَ يَبْتَغِي لَنَا قَالَ: كَيفَ أنْتُمْ؟ وَسَأَلَهَا عَنْ عَيْشِهِمْ وَهَيْئَتِهِمْ، فَقَالَتْ: نَحْنُ بِخَيرٍ وَسَعَةٍ، وَأَثْنَتْ عَلَى اللهِ. فَقَالَ: مَا طَعَامُكُمْ؟ قَالَتْ: اللَّحْمُ، قَالَ: فمَا شَرَابُكُمْ؟ قَالَت: الماءُ، قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي اللَّحْمِ وَالمَاءِ. قَالَ النَّبيُّ - ﷺ: وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ حَبٌّ، وَلَوْ كَانَ لَهُمْ دَعَا لَهُمْ فِيهِ، قَالَ: فَهُمَا لاَ يَخْلُو عَلَيْهِمَا أَحَدٌ بِغَيْرِ مَكَّةَ إِلاَّ لَمْ يُوَافِقَاهُ. وَفِي رواية: فجاء فَقَالَ: أيْنَ إسْمَاعِيلُ؟ فَقَالَتْ امْرأتُهُ: ذَهَبَ يَصِيدُ؛ فَقَالَتْ امْرَأتُهُ: ألاَ تَنْزِلُ، فَتَطْعَمَ وَتَشْرَبَ؟ قَالَ: وَمَا طَعَامُكُمْ وَمَا شَرَابُكُمْ؟ قَالَتْ: طَعَامُنَا اللَّحْمُ وَشَرَابُنَا المَاءُ، قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمْ فِي طَعَامِهِمْ وَشَرابِهِمْ. قَالَ: فَقَالَ أَبُو القاسم - ﷺ: بَرَكَةُ دَعوَةِ إبْرَاهِيمَ. قَالَ: فإذَا جَاءَ زَوْجُكِ فَاقْرَئِي عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمَ وَمُرِيِهِ يُثَبِّتُ عَتَبَةَ بَابِهِ. فَلَمَّا جَاءَ إسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ: هَلْ أتَاكُمْ مِنْ أحَدٍ؟ قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، أتانَا شَيْخٌ حَسَنُ الهَيْئَةِ، وَأثْنَتْ عَلَيْهِ، فَسَألَنِي عَنْكَ فَأَخْبَرتُهُ، فَسَألَنِي كَيْفَ عَيْشُنَا فَأخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّا بِخَيْرٍ. قَالَ: فَأوْصَاكِ بِشَيءٍ؟ قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلاَمَ وَيَأمُرُكَ أَنْ تُثَبِّتَ عَتَبَةَ بَابِكَ. قَالَ: ذَاكَ أبِي، وأنْتِ العَتَبَةُ، أمَرَنِي أَنْ أُمْسِكَكِ. ثُمَّ لَبِثَ عَنْهُمَ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ بَعدَ ذَلِكَ وإسْمَاعِيلُ يَبْرِي نَبْلًا لَهُ تَحْتَ دَوْحَةٍ قَريبًا مِنْ زَمْزَمَ، فَلَمَّا رَآهُ قَامَ إِلَيْهِ، فَصَنَعَا كَمَا يَصْنَعُ الوَالِدُ بِالوَلَدِ وَالوَلَدُ بِالوَالدِ. قَالَ: يَا إسْمَاعِيلُ، إنَّ اللهَ أمَرَنِي بِأمْرٍ، قَالَ: فَاصْنَعْ مَا أمَرَكَ رَبُّكَ؟ قالَ: وَتُعِينُنِي، قَالَ: وَأُعِينُكَ، قَالَ: فَإنَّ اللهَ أمَرَنِي أَنْ أَبْنِي بَيْتًا هاهُنَا، وأشَارَ إِلَى أكَمَةٍ مُرْتَفِعَةٍ عَلَى مَا حَوْلَهَا، فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ رَفَعَ القَوَاعِدَ مِنَ البَيْتِ، فَجَعَلَ إسْمَاعِيلُ يَأتِي بِالحِجَارَةِ وَإبْرَاهِيمُ يَبْنِي حَتَّى إِذَا ارْتَفَعَ البِنَاءُ، جَاءَ بِهذَا الحَجَرِ فَوَضَعَهُ لَهُ فَقَامَ عَلَيْهِ، وَهُوَ يَبْنِي وَإسْمَاعِيلُ يُنَاوِلُهُ الحجارة وَهُمَا يَقُولاَنِ: ﴿رَبَّنَا تَقَبَّلْ مِنَّا إنَّكَ أنْتَ السَّمِيعُ العَلِيمُ﴾ [البقرة: ١٢٧]. وفي روايةٍ: إنَّ إبْرَاهِيمَ خَرَجَ بِإسْمَاعِيلَ وَأُمِّ إسْمَاعِيلَ، مَعَهُمْ شَنَّةٌ فِيهَا مَاءٌ، فَجَعَلَتْ أُمُّ إسْمَاعِيلَ تَشْرَبُ مِنَ الشَّنَّةِ فَيَدِرُّ لَبَنُهَا عَلَى صَبِيِّهَا، حَتَّى قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ، فَوَضَعَهَا تَحْتَ دَوْحَةٍ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إبْرَاهِيمُ إِلَى أهْلِهِ، فَاتَّبَعَتْهُ أُمُّ إسْماعيلَ حَتَّى لَمَّا بَلَغُوا كَدَاءَ نَادَتْهُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ: يَا إبْرَاهِيمُ إِلَى مَنْ تَتْرُكُنَا؟ قَالَ: إِلَى اللهِ، قَالَتْ: رَضِيْتُ باللهِ، فَرَجَعَتْ وَجَعَلَتْ تَشْرَبُ مِنَ الشِّنَّةِ وَيَدُرُّ لَبَنُهَا عَلَى صَبِيِّهَا، حَتَّى لَمَّا فَنِيَ المَاءُ قَالَتْ: لَوْ ذَهَبْتُ فَنَظَرْتُ لَعَلِّي أُحِسُّ أَحَدًا. قَالَ: فَذَهَبَتْ فَصَعِدَتِ الصَّفَا، فَنَظَرَتْ وَنَظَرَتْ هَلْ تُحِسُّ أحدًا، فَلَمْ تُحِسَّ أَحَدًا، فَلَمَّا بَلَغَتِ الوَادِي سَعَتْ، وأتَتِ المَرْوَةَ، وَفَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ أشْوَاطًا، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: لَوْ ذَهَبْتُ فَنَظَرْتُ مَا فَعَلَ الصَّبِيُّ، فَذَهَبَتْ فَنَظَرَتْ فَإذَا هُوَ عَلَى حَالِهِ، كَأنَّهُ يَنْشَغُ لِلْمَوْتِ، فَلَمْ تُقِرَّهَا نَفْسُهَا فَقَالَتْ: لَوْ ذَهَبْتُ فَنَظَرْتُ لَعَلِّي أُحِسُّ أحَدًا، فَذَهَبَتْ فَصَعِدَتِ الصَّفَا، فَنَظَرَتْ ونظَرتْ فَلَمْ تُحِسَّ أَحَدًا، حَتَّى أتَمَّتْ سَبْعًا، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: لَوْ ذَهَبْتُ فَنَظَرْتُ مَا فَعَلَ، فَإذَا هِيَ بِصَوْتٍ، فَقَالَتْ: أَغِثْ إنْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ خَيْرٌ، فَإذَا جِبْرِيلُ فَقَالَ بِعقِبِهِ هَكَذَا، وَغَمَزَ بِعَقِبِهِ عَلَى الأرْضِ، فَانْبَثَقَ المَاءُ فَدَهِشَتْ أُمُّ إسْمَاعِيلَ، فَجَعَلَتْ تَحْفِنُ ... وَذَكَرَ الحَديثَ بِطُولِهِ، رواه البخاري بهذه الروايات كلها. «الدَّوْحَةُ» الشَّجَرَةُ الكَبِيرَةُ. قولُهُ: «قَفَّى»: أيْ: وَلَّى. «وَالْجَرِيُّ»: الرَّسُولُ. «وَألْفَى»: معناه وَجَدَ. قَولُهُ: «يَنْشَغُ»: أيْ: يَشْهَقُ.
Ibn ʿAbbās (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Ibrāhīm (peace and blessings be upon him) brought the mother of Ismāʿīl and her son Ismāʿīl, while she was still nursing him, and placed her by the House, by a great tree above Zamzam in the upper part of the Mosque. There was no one in Makkah that day, nor any water there. He placed them there and set beside them a leather bag containing dates and a water-skin containing water; then Ibrāhīm turned away, departing. The mother of Ismāʿīl followed him and said: O Ibrāhīm, where are you going, leaving us in this valley which has no companion and nothing in it? She said this to him repeatedly, but he would not turn to her. She said to him: Did Allah command you with this? He said: Yes. She said: Then He will not abandon us. Then she returned. Ibrāhīm (peace and blessings be upon him) set off until, when he was at the mountain-pass where they could not see him, he faced the House, then made these supplications, raising his hands and saying: "My Lord, I have settled some of my offspring in a valley without crops..." until he reached "...that they may give thanks." [Ibrāhīm: 37]. The mother of Ismāʿīl went on nursing Ismāʿīl and drinking from that water, until, when what was in the water-skin was exhausted, she grew thirsty and her son grew thirsty. She began to look at him writhing — or he said: tossing about — so she went off, disliking to look at him. She found al-Ṣafā the nearest hill in the land to her, so she stood upon it, then faced the valley, looking to see whether she could see anyone, but she saw no one. So she descended from al-Ṣafā until, when she reached the valley, she lifted the hem of her garment, then ran the running of an exhausted person until she crossed the valley. Then she came to al-Marwah and stood upon it and looked to see whether she could see anyone, but she saw no one. She did that seven times. Ibn ʿAbbās (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is why people run between the two." When she came up onto al-Marwah, she heard a voice and said: Hush — meaning to herself — then she listened intently and heard it again, so she said: You have made me hear; [help] if you have any help. And behold, there was the angel at the place of Zamzam. He dug with his heel — or he said: with his wing — until the water appeared. She began to make a basin around it, gesturing with her hand like this, and began to scoop the water into her water-skin while it gushed forth after she scooped. (In another narration: as much as she scooped.) Ibn ʿAbbās (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "May Allah have mercy on the mother of Ismāʿīl; had she left Zamzam" — or he said: "had she not scooped from the water" — "Zamzam would have been a flowing spring." He said: So she drank and nursed her child, and the angel said to her: Do not fear destitution, for here is a House of Allah which this boy and his father will build, and Allah does not abandon His people. The House was raised from the ground like a hillock; the floods would come to it and pass on its right and its left. Things remained thus until a company of Jurhum — or a household of Jurhum — passed by them, coming from the road of Kadāʾ, and camped in the lower part of Makkah. They saw a bird circling and said: This bird surely circles over water; our knowledge of this valley is that there is no water in it. So they sent a scout or two scouts, and behold, they found the water. They returned and informed them, so they came — and the mother of Ismāʿīl was by the water — and said: Will you permit us to camp with you? She said: Yes, but you have no right to the water. They said: Yes. Ibn ʿAbbās said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That suited the mother of Ismāʿīl, for she loved company." So they camped, sent for their families, and they camped with them, until there were several households in it. The boy grew up and learned Arabic from them, and he became most prized and pleasing to them as he grew up. When he reached maturity, they married him to a woman from among them; and the mother of Ismāʿīl died. Ibrāhīm came after Ismāʿīl had married, to look in on those he had left, but he did not find Ismāʿīl, so he asked his wife about him. She said: He has gone out seeking [provision] for us — in another narration: hunting for us. Then he asked her about their living and condition, and she said: We are in hardship; we are in straits and difficulty — and she complained to him. He said: When your husband comes, convey to him my greeting of peace and tell him to change the threshold of his door. When Ismāʿīl came, it was as if he sensed something, and he said: Did anyone come to you? She said: Yes, an old man of such-and-such description came to us, asked us about you, and I told him; he asked me how our living was, and I told him we are in hardship and difficulty. He said: Did he charge you with anything? She said: Yes, he commanded me to convey to you his greeting of peace and says: Change the threshold of your door. He said: That was my father, and he has commanded me to part from you. Go back to your family. So he divorced her and married another from among them. Ibrāhīm remained away from them as long as Allah willed, then came to them afterwards but did not find him, so he entered upon his wife and asked about him. She said: He has gone out seeking [provision] for us. He said: How are you? — and he asked her about their living and condition, and she said: We are in good and ease, and she praised Allah. He said: What is your food? She said: Meat. He said: And what is your drink? She said: Water. He said: O Allah, bless for them the meat and the water. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: They had no grain that day; had they had it, he would have prayed for them in it too. He said: So those two [meat and water] — no one lives on them alone, anywhere other than Makkah, but they do not agree with him. In another narration: He came and said: Where is Ismāʿīl? His wife said: He has gone hunting. His wife said: Will you not alight and eat and drink? He said: And what is your food and what is your drink? She said: Our food is meat and our drink is water. He said: O Allah, bless for them their food and their drink. He said: Abū al-Qāsim (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is the blessing of Ibrāhīm's supplication. He said: When your husband comes, convey to him my greeting of peace and tell him to keep firm the threshold of his door. When Ismāʿīl came, he said: Did anyone come to you? She said: Yes, an old man of fine appearance came to us — and she praised him — he asked me about you and I told him, and he asked me how our living was and I told him we are in good. He said: Did he charge you with anything? She said: Yes, he conveys to you his greeting of peace and commands you to keep firm the threshold of your door. He said: That was my father, and you are the threshold; he commanded me to keep you. Then he remained away from them as long as Allah willed, then came after that while Ismāʿīl was shaping arrows of his beneath a great tree near Zamzam. When he saw him, he rose to him, and they did as a father does with a son and a son with a father. He said: O Ismāʿīl, Allah has commanded me with a command. He said: Then do what your Lord has commanded you. He said: And will you help me? He said: I will help you. He said: Allah has commanded me to build a House here — and he pointed to a mound raised above what was around it. At that point they raised the foundations of the House. Ismāʿīl began bringing the stones and Ibrāhīm building, until, when the building rose high, he brought this stone and placed it for him, and he stood upon it and built while Ismāʿīl handed him the stones, and the two of them were saying: "Our Lord, accept from us; indeed You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing." [al-Baqarah: 127]. In another narration: Ibrāhīm went out with Ismāʿīl and the mother of Ismāʿīl, with them a water-skin containing water. The mother of Ismāʿīl would drink from the water-skin so that her milk flowed for her infant, until he reached Makkah and placed her beneath a great tree; then Ibrāhīm returned to his family. The mother of Ismāʿīl followed him until, when they reached Kadāʾ, she called to him from behind him: O Ibrāhīm, to whom are you leaving us? He said: To Allah. She said: I am content with Allah. So she returned and went on drinking from the water-skin while her milk flowed for her infant, until, when the water ran out, she said: If only I went and looked, perhaps I would sense someone. He said: So she went and climbed al-Ṣafā and looked and looked to see whether she could sense anyone, but she sensed no one. When she reached the valley she ran and came to al-Marwah, and did that several times. Then she said: If only I went and looked at what has happened to the infant. So she went and looked, and behold, he was in his state, as though gasping in the throes of death. Her soul would not let her settle, so she said: If only I went and looked, perhaps I would sense someone. So she went and climbed al-Ṣafā and looked and looked, but sensed no one, until she completed seven. Then she said: If only I went and looked at what has happened.
