Ibn Buraydah narrates from his father, Sayyiduna Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him); he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When we reached Bayt al-Maqdis, Jibril (peace be upon him) pointed with his finger and pierced the rock with it, and tied al-Buraq to it." The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), and the two Shaykhs did not record it; and Abu Tumaylah and al-Zubayr are both from Marw and are trustworthy (thiqah) narrators.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him); he said: "Whenever Sayyiduna Nuh (peace be upon him) ate any food or wore any garment, he would praise Allah; that is why he was called a very grateful servant ('abdan shakura')." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.

It is narrated from Tawus; he said: I was with Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), and with us was a man from the Qadariyyah (the sect that denies divine decree). I said: "Some people say that there is no divine decree." Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) asked: "Is any of them (the Qadariyyah) among these people?" I said: "If there were, what would you do?" He said: "If one of them were here, I would seize him by the head and then recite this verse to him: 'And We decreed for the Children of Israel in the Scripture: You will surely cause corruption in the land twice, and you will surely become greatly arrogant.' [Surah al-Isra': 4] " This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.

It is narrated from Abu Wa'il; he said that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) used often to recite this verse in this way: "Indeed, this Qur'an guides to that which is most upright and gives good tidings to the believers" (and he would read «yubashshiru» light, without doubling, that is «yabshuru»). Uthman (the narrator) said: And this is the reading of Hamzah. The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), and the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man said: "O Messenger of Allah! I have much wealth and a family and children. What is required of me, what I should do or how I should spend?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Pay the obligatory zakah, for it will purify you; treat your relatives kindly; and recognise the right of the one who asks, of the neighbour and of the poor." He said: "O Messenger of Allah! Make it less for me." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then give the relatives, the poor and the travellers their right, and do not squander wastefully." He said: "O Messenger of Allah! If I pay the zakah to the envoy sent by the Messenger of Allah, have I then paid it to Allah and His Messenger?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes; when you have paid it to his (the Messenger's) envoy, you have paid it, and you will have its reward, and whoever alters it (from its due), the sin of it will be upon him." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.

It is narrated from Yahya bin al-Jazzar; he said: Abu al-Ubaydayn came to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), and he was a blind man; Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to hold him in regard. He asked: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! If we do not ask you, whom shall we ask?" Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "What is your need?" He asked: "What is 'al-awwah'?" Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The compassionate." He asked: "What is 'al-ma'un'?" He said: "The things that people lend and give one another (such as items of common use)." He asked: "What is 'al-tabdhir' (squandering)?" He said: "Spending wealth where it has no right to be spent." He asked: "What is 'al-ummah'?" He said: "The one who teaches people good." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.
