It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he passed by a man who was reciting the Qur'an to the people. After finishing the recitation, he began to ask the people (for something). Seeing this, Hazrat Imran (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un," and said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: Whoever recites the Qur'an, he should ask Allah through the Qur'an, because soon there will come people who will recite the Qur'an and then ask people through it.

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that once some people from Banu Tamim came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them, "O Banu Tamim! Accept the glad tidings." They said, "O Messenger of Allah! You have given us glad tidings, now grant us something as well." Upon hearing this, the color of the blessed face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) changed. After a short while, a tribe from Yemen arrived, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them, "Banu Tamim did not accept the glad tidings, you accept them." They submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! We have accepted them."

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that I was suffering from many illnesses at the same time. I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about performing prayer while sitting. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The reward for performing prayer while sitting is half of that for performing prayer while standing, and the reward for performing prayer while lying down is half of that for performing prayer while sitting.

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no vow in anger, and its expiation is the same as the expiation for an oath."

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the Zuhr prayer, and one of the followers recited the Surah "Sabbihisma Rabbikal A'la." After finishing the prayer, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "Who among you recited 'Sabbihisma Rabbikal A'la'?" One man said, "I did." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "I realized that someone among you was contending with me."

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Today your brother Najashi has passed away, so perform his funeral prayer." Thus, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and we formed rows behind him, then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led his funeral prayer.

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Today your brother Najashi has passed away, so perform his funeral prayer."

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that a person said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that such-and-such man never misses fasting during the day. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He neither missed nor fasted.

Mutarrif says that once Hazrat Imran (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me, "Mutarrif! By Allah! I think that if I wish, I can narrate to you the sayings of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) continuously for two days, and not a single narration among them would be repeated. Then I refrain from this because some of the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)—among whom I too used to be present in the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and I too used to listen as they did—narrate such sayings which are not as they say. I know that they do not fall short in conveying the truth as they understand it. I fear that I too may become doubtful like them. Therefore, Hazrat Imran (may Allah be pleased with him) would sometimes say in this way: 'If I narrate this hadith to you that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say this,' then I think I am telling the truth. And sometimes, with certainty, he would say: 'I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say this.'"

It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that the she-camel named Adhba actually belonged to a man from Banu Aqil and was a mount for the pilgrims. That man was captured and his she-camel was also seized. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by him while he was tied with ropes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was riding a donkey and had a sheet wrapped around him. The man said, "O Muhammad! (peace and blessings be upon him) Will you also capture me and the pilgrims’ mount?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "We have captured you because of the audacity of your allies, Banu Thaqif, for Banu Thaqif had imprisoned two companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." Anyway, during the conversation, the man said, "I am a Muslim." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "If you had said this at a time when you had full control over yourself, you would have attained complete success." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) moved on, and the man said, "O Muhammad! (peace and blessings be upon him) I am hungry, feed me; I am thirsty, give me water." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "This is your need (which we will fulfill)." Then, in exchange for the ransom of those two companions, this man was given and Adhba was kept for the Prophet’s own mount. Not long after, the polytheists raided the pasture of Madinah and took away the animals there, among which was Adhba as well. They also captured a Muslim woman. One day, when the woman saw the people were heedless, she quietly mounted the Prophet’s she-camel and made a vow that if she reached Madinah safely, she would slaughter this she-camel. Anyway, she reached Madinah and wanted to slaughter the Prophet’s she-camel, but the people stopped her and mentioned it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You have given it a bad reward." Then he said, "The son of Adam cannot make a vow regarding something he does not own, nor is there a vow in disobedience to Allah."
