It is narrated from Hazrat Awf bin Malik Ashja'i (may Allah be pleased with him) and Khalid bin Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not take a fifth from the belongings of the slain.

It is narrated from Abdul Malik bin Umair (may Allah have mercy on him) that when Hazrat Umar Farooq (may Allah be pleased with him) dismissed Hazrat Khalid bin Waleed (may Allah be pleased with him) in Syria and appointed Hazrat Abu Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah (may Allah be pleased with him), Hazrat Khalid (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) has appointed the trustee of this Ummah over you. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: The trustee of this Ummah is Abu Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah.

Hazrat Dhu Makhmar (who is also called Dhu Mukhbir), who was an Abyssinian man and used to serve the Prophet (peace be upon him), says that once we were on a journey with the Prophet (peace be upon him). On the way back, the Prophet (peace be upon him) increased his pace; generally, the Prophet (peace be upon him) would do so due to the shortage of provisions. Someone said, "O Messenger of Allah! The people have fallen far behind." So the Prophet (peace be upon him) stopped, and his companions also stopped, until everyone caught up. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) or someone else suggested that we camp here. So the Prophet (peace be upon him) also dismounted, and everyone set up camp.

Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) asked, "Who will guard us tonight?" I offered myself and said, "I will do it; may Allah sacrifice me for you." The Prophet (peace be upon him) handed me the reins of his camel and said, "Do not be negligent." I took the reins of my camel and the Prophet's (peace be upon him) camel and went a little distance away and let them graze. I kept watching them like that until suddenly sleep overtook me, and I became unaware of everything until I felt the heat of the sun on my face and woke up. I looked to my right and left, and both camels were not far from me. I took their reins and went to the nearby people, woke them up, and asked, "Have you prayed?" They replied, "No." Then people started waking each other up until the Prophet (peace be upon him) also woke up.

The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked Hazrat Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him), "Bilal! Is there water in the vessel for ablution?" He replied, "Yes, may Allah sacrifice me for you." Then he brought the water for ablution. The Prophet (peace be upon him) performed ablution; he did not perform tayammum. Then he ordered Hazrat Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him), and he gave the call to prayer (adhan). Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) stood and prayed the two sunnah before Fajr, and he did not hasten in them. Then he ordered, and Bilal gave the iqamah, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) calmly led the Fajr prayer. After the prayer, someone said, "O Messenger of Allah! Did we fall short?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "No! Allah alone took our souls and He alone returned our souls, and we prayed."

It is narrated from Hazrat Dhu Mukhmar (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Soon the Romans will make a peace treaty with you, then you and they will fight together against a common enemy. You will be victorious in that battle and will return safely with spoils of war. When you reach a place called Dhi Tulul, a Christian will raise a cross and say, "The cross has prevailed." At this, a Muslim will become angry and will stand up to respond to him. From there, the Romans will break the treaty and begin preparations for war.

You will be victorious in that battle and will return safe and sound with spoils of war. When you reach a place called Dhi Tulul, a Christian will raise a cross and say, "The cross has prevailed."

They will gather together and attack you, coming under eighty banners, under each banner will be ten thousand horsemen.

It is narrated from Hazrat Dhu Makhmar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "At first, rulership was with the tribe of Himyar, then Allah took it from them and placed it among the Quraysh, and soon it will return to them again."

Isa bin Talha (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once we went to Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), and during that time the muezzin began to give the call to prayer. When he said «الله اكبر، الله اكبر» , Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) also said «الله اكبر، الله اكبر» . When he said «اشهد ان لا اله الا الله» , he said «وانا اشهد» . When he said «اشهد ان محمد رسول الله» , Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) also said «وانا اشهد» . When he said «حي على الصلاة» , he said «لا حول ولاقوة الا بالله» , and said that I heard your Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) responding to the call to prayer in this manner.

Saeed bin Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Madinah Munawwarah and delivered a sermon to us, in which he took out a lock of hair and showed it, and said: "I think only the Jews do this. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) learned of this, he called it falsehood."

Once, Hazrat Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) went to the place of Hazrat Abdullah bin Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) and Ibn Aamir. Ibn Aamir stood up out of respect for him, but Ibn Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) did not stand up, and the Sheikh was senior to both of them. He said, "Wait! The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever likes that the servants of Allah should stand before him, he should make his abode in Hell."

Alqamah bin Waqas (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I was with Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) when the muezzin began to give the adhan. Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) also began to repeat the same words. When he said "Hayya 'ala-s-Salah," he replied, "La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah." In response to "Hayya 'ala-l-Falah," he said the same. After that, he continued to repeat the words of the muezzin. Then he said, "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying the same."
