It is narrated from Sayyiduna Taliq bin Ali that once we came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as a delegation. At the time of departure, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed me, so I brought a water vessel to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) drank from it and rinsed his mouth in it three times. Then he tied the mouth of that vessel and said: Take this vessel and sprinkle its water in the mosque of your people, and command them to keep their heads high, for Allah has granted them honor. I said: There is a long distance between us and you; the water of this vessel will dry up before it reaches our area. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When it begins to dry up, add more water to it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Taliq that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Allah has made the moon a means for people to determine times, so when you see the moon, observe the fast, and when you see the moon, celebrate Eid. If it is cloudy, then complete the count to thirty.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Talq that a man asked the Prophet (peace be upon him), "If any one of us touches his private part, should he perform ablution?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied, "The private part is only a part of your body."

Qais bin Talq narrates that once during Ramadan, our father, Sayyiduna Talq bin Ali, came to us and stayed with us until night. He led us in the Tarawih prayer and also led us in Witr. Then he went to the Masjid Raihan and led them in prayer as well. When the Witr remained, he appointed one of them to lead, and that person led them in Witr. Then Sayyiduna Talq said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say that there are not two Witrs in one night.
