Narrated
'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Auf:
I got an agreement
written between me and Umaiya bin Khalaf that Umaiya would look after my
property (or family) in Mecca and I would look after his in Medina. When I
mentioned the word 'Ar-Rahman' in the documents, Umaiya said, "I do not
know 'Ar-Rahman.' Write down to me your name, (with which you called yourself)
in the Pre-lslamic Period of Ignorance." So, I wrote my name ' 'Abdu
'Amr'. On the day (of the battle) of Badr, when all the people went to sleep, I
went up the hill to protect him. Bilal(1) saw him (i.e. Umaiya) and went to a
gathering of Ansar and said, "(Here is) Umaiya bin Khalaf! Woe to me if he
escapes!" So, a group of Ansar went out with Bilal to follow us
('Abdur-Rahman and Umaiya). Being afraid that they would catch us, I left
Umaiya's son for them to keep them busy but the Ansar killed the son and
insisted on following us. Umaiya was a fat man, and when they approached us, I
told him to kneel down, and he knelt, and I laid myself on him to protect him,
but the Ansar killed him by passing their swords underneath me, and one of them
injured my foot with his sword. (The sub narrator said, " 'Abdur-Rahman
used to show us the trace of the wound on the back of his foot.")

dates of Khaibar of this kind?" The man replied, "(No), we exchange
two Sa's of bad dates for one Sa of this kind of dates (i.e. Janib), or
exchange three Sa's for two." On that, the Prophet said, "Don't do
so, as it is a kind of usury (Riba) but sell the dates of inferior quality for
money, and then buy Janib with the money". The Prophet said the same thing
about dates sold by weight. (See Hadith No. 506).

So, you have the option of restoring your properties or your captives, for I
have delayed distributing them." The narrator added, Allah's Apostle c had
been waiting for them for more than ten days on his return from Taif. When they
realized that Allah's Apostle would return to them only one of two things, they
said, "We choose our captives." So, Allah's Apostle got up in the
gathering of the Muslims, praised Allah as He deserved, and said, "Then
after! These brethren of yours have come to you with repentance and I see it
proper to return their captives to them. So, whoever amongst you likes to do
that as a favor, then he can do it, and whoever of you wants to stick to his
share till we pay him from the very first booty which Allah will give us then
he can do so." The people replied, "We agree to give up our shares
willingly as a favor for Allah's Apostle." Then Allah's Apostle said,
"We don't know who amongst you has agreed and who hasn't. Go back and your
chiefs may tell us your opinion." So, all of them returned and their
chiefs discussed the matter with them and then they (i.e. their chiefs) came to
Allah's Apostle to tell him that they (i.e. the people) had given up their
shares gladly and willingly.

(why are you late)?" I replied, "I am riding a slow camel." He
asked, "Do you have a stick?" I replied in the affirmative. He said,
"Give it to me." When I gave it to him, he beat the camel and rebuked
it. Then that camel surpassed the others thenceforth. The Prophet said,
"Sell it to me." I replied, "It is (a gift) for you, O Allah's
Apostle." He said, "Sell it to me. I have bought it for four Dinars
(gold pieces) and you can keep on riding it till Medina." When we
approached Medina, I started going (towards my house). The Prophet said,
"Where are you going?" I Sad, "I have married a widow." He
said, "Why have you not married a virgin to fondle with each other?"
I said, "My father died and left daughters, so I decided to marry a widow
(an experienced woman) (to look after them)." He said, "Well
done." When we reached Medina, Allah's Apostle said, "O Bilal, pay
him (the price of the camel) and give him extra money." Bilal gave me four
Dinars and one Qirat extra. (A sub-narrator said): Jabir added, "The extra

Huraira:
Allah's Apostle
deputed me to keep Sadaqat (al-Fitr) of Ramadan. A comer came and started
taking handfuls of the foodstuff (of the Sadaqa) (stealthily). I took hold of
him and said, "By Allah, I will take you to Allah's Apostle ." He
said, "I am needy and have many dependents, and I am in great need."
I released him, and in the morning Allah's Apostle asked me, "What did
your prisoner do yesterday?" I said, "O Allah's Apostle! The person
complained of being needy and of having many dependents, so, I pitied him and
let him go." Allah's Apostle said, "Indeed, he told you a lie and he
will be coming again." I believed that he would show up again as Allah's
Apostle had told me that he would return. So, I waited for him watchfully. When
he (showed up and) started stealing handfuls of foodstuff, I caught hold of him
again and said, "I will definitely take you to Allah's Apostle. He said,
"Leave me, for I am very needy and have many dependents. I promise I will
not come back again." I pitied him and let him go.
In the morning
Allah's Apostle asked me, "What did your prisoner do." I replied,
"O Allah's Apostle! He complained of his great need and of too many
dependents, so I took pity on him and set him free." Allah's Apostle said,
"Verily, he told you a lie and he will return." I waited for him
attentively for the third time, and when he (came and) started stealing
handfuls of the foodstuff, I caught hold of him and said, "I will surely
take you to Allah's Apostle as it is the third time you promise not to return,
yet you break your promise and come." He said, "(Forgive me and) I will
teach you some words with which Allah will benefit you." I asked,
"What are they?" He replied, "Whenever you go to bed, recite
"Ayat-al-Kursi"-- 'Allahu la ilaha illa huwa-l-Haiy-ul Qaiyum' till
you finish the whole verse. (If you do so), Allah will appoint a guard for you
who will stay with you and no satan will come near you till morning. " So,
I released him. In the morning, Allah's Apostle asked, "What did your
prisoner do yesterday?" I replied, "He claimed that he would teach me
some words by which Allah will benefit me, so I let him go." Allah's
Apostle asked, "What are they?" I replied, "He said to me,
'Whenever you go to bed, recite Ayat-al-Kursi from the beginning to the end
---- Allahu la ilaha illa huwa-lHaiy-ul-Qaiyum----.' He further said to me,
'(If you do so), Allah will appoint a guard for you who will stay with you, and
no satan will come near you till morning.' (Abu Huraira or another
sub-narrator) added that they (the companions) were very keen to do good deeds.
The Prophet said, "He really spoke the truth, although he is an absolute
liar. Do you know whom you were talking to, these three nights, O Abu
Huraira?" Abu Huraira said, "No." He said, "It was
Satan."

righteousness till you spend in charity of the things you love' (3.93), Abu
Talha got up in front of Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle!
Allah says in His Book, 'You will not attain righteousness unless you spend (in
charity) that which you love,' and verily, the most beloved to me of my
property is Beeruha (garden), so I give it in charity and hope for its reward
from Allah. O Allah's Apostle! Spend it wherever you like." Allah's
Apostle appreciated that and said, "That is perishable wealth, that is
perishable wealth. I have heard what you have said; I suggest you to distribute
it among your relatives." Abu Talha said, "I will do so, O Allah's Apostle."
So, Abu Talha distributed it among his relatives and cousins. The sub-narrator
