It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of the Battle of Badr, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Who will go and see what has become of Abu Jahl?" Hazrat Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) went for this service. He saw that the two sons of Afraa had beaten him until he was lifeless. Hazrat Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) caught Abu Jahl by his beard and said, "Are you Abu Jahl? Are you the misguided old man?" He replied, "Have you ever killed a man greater than me?"

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the command of veiling (purdah) was revealed, I know the circumstances of that time better than anyone else. That night, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was in seclusion with Hazrat Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her), and in the morning the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was a bridegroom. After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) invited the people, they came, ate food, and left, but some people remained sitting there and continued to sit for quite a while, until the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself got up and went outside. I also went outside so that they might leave as well. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and I, while walking, stopped at the threshold of Hazrat Aisha’s (may Allah be pleased with her) chamber. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) thought that perhaps those people had now left, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned, and I was with him, but those people were still sitting there. The same thing happened again, but this time those people had actually left. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered inside and hung a curtain, and Allah revealed the verse of hijab.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Allah Almighty continuously sent down revelation upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) before his passing, until he passed away, and the most revelation was sent down on the day the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a person asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about "Kawthar." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that it is the name of a river which my Lord has granted me. Its water will be whiter than milk and sweeter than honey, and there will be birds in it with necks like those of camels. Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Then those birds will be very healthy." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "O Umar! Those who eat them will be even healthier than them."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to attack a people, he would not attack at night but would wait until morning. If he heard the sound of the call to prayer (adhan) from there, he would refrain; otherwise, he would attack.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that there was no one who performed the Asr prayer more quickly than the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Among the Ansar, there were two men whose houses were the farthest from the Prophet’s Mosque. One was Hazrat Abu Lubabah bin Abdul Mundhir (may Allah be pleased with him), who belonged to Banu Amr bin Auf, and the other was Hazrat Abu Abas bin Jabr (may Allah be pleased with him), who belonged to Banu Harithah. Hazrat Abu Lubabah’s (may Allah be pleased with him) house was in Quba, and Hazrat Abu Abas’s (may Allah be pleased with him) house was in Banu Harithah. Both of them would perform the Asr prayer with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and when they returned to their people, they had not yet performed the Asr prayer, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform it quickly.

(Marfu‘ hadith) Ya‘qub narrated to us, my father informed us, from Ibn Ishaq, he narrated to me from Ziyad ibn Abi Ziyad, the freed slave of Ibn ‘Abbas, who said: I returned from the Dhuhr prayer with ‘Umar after Hisham ibn Isma‘il had led the people in prayer, as he was the governor of Madinah, to ‘Amr ibn ‘Abdullah ibn Abi Talhah to visit him due to an illness he had. We had not sat down nor asked about him except while standing. He said: Then we left and entered upon Anas ibn Malik in his house, which was next to the house of Abu Talhah. He said: When we sat down, the servant girl came to him and said: The prayer, O Abu Hamzah! He said: We said: Which prayer, may Allah have mercy on you? He said: ‘Asr. He said: So we said: We have just prayed Dhuhr now! He said: He replied: You have delayed the prayer until you forgot it, or he said: You forgot it until you delayed it. I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say:“I and the Hour have been sent like these two,”and he joined his index and middle fingers.

Ziyad bin Abi Ziyad (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once, after Umar and I had finished offering the Zuhr prayer—which was led by Hisham bin Isma'il, as he was the governor of Madinah at that time—we went to inquire about the health of Amr bin Abdullah. We did not sit there; we only asked about his condition while standing. Then we went to visit Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), whose house was next to the house of Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him). As soon as we sat down there, a slave girl came to him and said, "O Abu Hamzah! The time for prayer has come." We asked, "May Allah's mercy be upon you, which prayer?" He replied, "The Asr prayer." We said, "We have just offered the Zuhr prayer." He said, "You have neglected the prayer to the extent that you have forgotten it. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: 'I and the Hour have been sent like these two fingers together.'" Saying this, he pointed with his index and middle fingers and extended them. Hadith number (13509) is also narrated through this second chain.

Ibrahim narrated to us, Abu Uways narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Muslim, the nephew of Az-Zuhri, from his father, from Anas ibn Malik, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, regarding Al-Kawthar, similar to the hadith of Az-Zuhri exactly.
