سورة البقرة

282. O you who believe! When you contract a debt for a fixed period, write it down. Let a scribe write it down in justice between you. Let not the scribe refuse to write as Allâh has taught him, so let him write. Let him (the debtor) who incurs the liability dictate, and he must fear Allâh, his Lord, and diminish not anything of what he owes. But if the debtor is of poor understanding, or weak, or is unable to dictate for himself, then let his guardian dictate in justice. And get two witnesses out of your own men. And if there are not two men (available), then a man and two women, such as you agree for witnesses, so that if one of them (two women) errs, the other can remind her. And the witnesses should not refuse when they are called (for evidence). You should not become weary to write it (your contract), whether it be small or big, for its fixed term, that is more just with Allâh; more solid as evidence, and more convenient to prevent doubts among yourselves, save when it is a present trade which you carry out on the spot among yourselves, then there is no sin on you if you do not write it down. But take witnesses whenever you make a commercial contract. Let neither scribe nor witness suffer any harm, but if you do (such harm), it would be wickedness in you. So be afraid of Allâh; and Allâh teaches you. And Allâh is the All-Knower of each and everything.

﴿ لَهُم مَّا يَشَآءُونَ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡۚ ذَٰلِكَ جَزَآءُ ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ ﴾

سورة الزمر

They will have whatever they desire with their Lord. That is the reward of the doers of good -

﴿ لِيُحِقَّ ٱلۡحَقَّ وَيُبۡطِلَ ٱلۡبَٰطِلَ وَلَوۡ كَرِهَ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ ﴾

سورة الأنفال

so that He might establish the truth and nullify the falsehood, even though the wicked are averse to it.

‘Ā'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported: I heard the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) saying: while reclining on me: "O Allah, forgive me, bestow Your mercy on me, and join me with the exalted companions."

Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim

As the time for the death of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) drew near, he reclined on the Mother of Believers ‘Ā'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) asking his Lord to join him with the companions and they are the prophets, the virtuous people, the martyrs, and the righteous

‘Ali ibn Abi Tālib (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: When he washed the body of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) he looked for what is usually found on the dead person’s body (i.e. dirt), but found nothing. Therefore, He said: "May my father be sacrificed for you, you are pure alive and dead."

Narrated by Ibn Majah

When ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) washed the body of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) he went on looking for things that are usually looked for on the deceased like urine, excrement, and the like. Such things usually come out of the corpse as a result of joints’ relaxation. Nevertheless, ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) found nothing. So, he said: May my father be sacrificed for you, you are the pure one; you were pure when alive and you are pure when dead.

‘Abdullāh ibn Ash-Shikhkhīr (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I saw the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) praying and making a sound like the rumbling of a mill because of weeping.

An-Nasaa’i - Narrated by Abu Daoud - Narrated by Ahmad

‘Abdullāh ibn Ash-Shikhkhīr (may Allah be pleased with him) said that he saw the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) praying, and he could hear a sound from him similar to that of a mill. That sound made by the mill is produced by grinding. The Companion,(may Allah be pleased with him) likened the Prophet's weeping sound to the rumbling of the mill. This is how the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was with his Lord, though Allah has forgiven his previous and late sins. However, he was the most pious of people, the most conscious of Allah, and the one who feared Allah, the Exalted, the most owing to his perfect knowledge of his Lord.

Abu Zayd ibn Akhtab (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) wiped my face with his hand and supplicated for me. ‘Azrah (one of the narrators) said: "He lived for one hundred and twenty years and only had a few little grey hairs on his head.”

Narrated by At-Termedhy - Narrated by Ahmad

The Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) wiped over the face of Abu Zayd ibn Akhtab al-Ansāri (may Allah be pleased with him) with his hand and supplicated for him. According to another narration, the supplication made by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was: "O Allah, make him beautiful, and make his beauty lasting", meaning: O Allah, make his beauty last throughout his life. ‘Azrah, one of the narrators, said that Abu Zayd al-Ansāri lived for one hundred and twenty years, and only a few little grey hairs were visible on his head till his death. In another narration, it was reported that Abu Zayd’s facial skin was smooth and wrinkle-free until the last day of his life, thanks to the Prophet's blessed supplication and his wipe over Abu Zayd's face.

Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that a woman with some sort of mental disorder said: "O Messenger of Allah, I need your help in a certain matter." He said: "O Mother of so-and-so, choose which road you would like (to meet me on) so that I may give you the help you need." He then stood aside with her on some road until she finished telling him what she needed.

Narrated by Muslim

A woman known to be mentally unstable said to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) that she needed his help. He asked her to choose a road on which they can meet so that he would help her with what she needed. He then stood aside with her on a much-trodden road until he gave her the help she needed. Needless to say, this was not forbidden seclusion with a non-Mahram woman, because the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stood aside with her on a much-trodden road where people could see them both but without hearing the woman’s speech (out of respect for her privacy). This behavior shows how humble and compassionate the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was towards his followers.

‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) would give up a deed, even though he liked to perform it, for fear that people would follow him and perform it, and it would thus become obligatory for them. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) never prayed the Duha prayer, but I offer it.

Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim

‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) relates that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) would give up a deed, even though he liked to perform it, for fear that people would follow him and perform it, and it would thus become obligatory for them, and this might prove difficult for them. Then, she says that the Prophet would not perform the Duha prayer, but the scholars took this negation to refer to lack of regular performance; that is the Prophet would offer it sometimes, for its merit, and abandon it at other times lest it might beccome obligatory for people, as she mentions early in the Hadīth.

Ibn Mas‘ūd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I prayed one night with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and he continued standing for long until I was I about to do something bad. Someone said: What were you about to do? He said: I was about to sit down and leave him (standing).

Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim

Ibn Mas‘ūd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I prayed one night with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and he prolonged the standing for so long that I was I about to do something bad. It was asked: "What were you about to do?" He said: "I was about to sit down and leave him (standing)."

Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) entered upon a man of the Ansār, accompanied by one of his Companions. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you have any water that has remained this night in a skin (we would like it), otherwise we would drink directly (from a water source)."

Narrated by Bukhari

Jābir (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) entered the house of a man of the Ansār. It is said that he was Abu al-Haytham ibn At-Tayyihān al-Ansāri. The Prophet was accompanied by his Companion Abu Bakr. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) asked the Ansāri man if he had any water that had remained overnight in a water skin, and this was in summer. The wisdom behind that is that the water which remains overnight is cool. If he did not have such water, they would drink water directly with their mouths from a water source, without using a cup or their hand.

‘Abdullāh ibn Busr (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) had a large bowl called Al-Gharrā', which needed four men to carry it. One day, when they finished their Duha prayer, that bowl was brought full of bread sopped in broth, and they sat down around it. When their number increased, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) knelt down (sat on his knees, resting on his feet). A Bedouin said: "What sort of sitting is that!" Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Verily, Allah has made me a noble slave, not an obstinate tyrant." Then he said: "Eat from the sides of the bowl and leave the center so that your food would be blessed."

Narrated by Ibn Majah - Narrated by Abu Daoud

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) had a big bowl to serve food in called Al-Gharrā' that four men used to carry. One day, when the Companions finished performing their Duha prayer, Al-Gharrā' was brought full of bread sopped in broth, and they sat down around it. When their number increased and the circle around the bowl became too narrow to accommodate everyone, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sat down on his knees resting on his feet to make room for his brothers. A Bedouin said to him in amazement: "What is this way of sitting, O Messenger of Allah," because of the humility it involved. Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Verily, Allah has made me a noble slave through prophet-hood and knowledge, and He has not made me an obstinate tyrant." The Prophet was indeed neither arrogant nor despotic. Then he said to the Companions: "Eat from the sides of the bowl and leave its center," explaining that this is a reason to attain blessing in food.

‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) divided some wealth, and I said to him: "O Messenger of Allah, were not other than those people more deserving of it than them?" He replied: "They left me no alternative but that they either beg of me importunately or regard me as a miser, and I am not a miser."
