It is narrated from Hazrat Uqbah bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day a detachment attacked the people of a certain area in the morning; those people lived near water. One of them came out, so a Muslim attacked him and said, "I am a Muslim," but despite this, he killed him. On their return, when they informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up to deliver a sermon, praised Allah, and after saying 'Amma ba'd', said: "What is the matter that a Muslim kills another person even after he has professed Islam?" That person said, "O Messenger of Allah! He only recited the Kalimah to save his life." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned his face away from him and, raising his right hand, said three times: "Allah has refused to accept my word in favor of one who kills a Muslim."

It is narrated from Hazrat Khursha bin Har (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: After me, tribulations will appear. In that time, the one who is asleep will be better than the one who is awake, the one who is sitting will be better than the one who is standing, and the one who is standing will be better than the one who is walking. Whoever faces such a time should take his sword to Safa and strike it until it breaks, and instead of standing up to these tribulations, he should sit down until the light appears.

Humaid Himyari (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Once I met a companion of the Prophet (peace be upon him) who had accompanied the Prophet (peace be upon him) for four years, just like Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him). He did not say more than three things to me: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "A man can perform ghusl (ritual bath) with water left over by a woman, but a woman should not perform ghusl with water left over by a man. Do not urinate in the bathhouse, and do not comb (beautify) yourself every day."

Do not urinate in the bathhouse, and do not comb (beautify) yourself every day."

It is narrated from the mentioned companion, may Allah be pleased with him, that once I came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, for some of my work. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, saw that I had applied a perfume called "Khaluq," so he said: Go, wash it off and come back. So I washed it off and presented myself. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, again said: Go, wash it off and come back. So this time I jumped into a well and started scraping it off with a comb. When I presented myself again, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Now tell me your need.

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I submitted in the court of the Messenger: O Messenger of Allah! Teach me something from the knowledge that Allah has given you. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you have performed the Fajr prayer, refrain from offering voluntary prayers until the sun rises. Even when the sun rises, do not pray until the sun has risen high, because when it rises, it rises between the two horns of Satan, and at that time the disbelievers prostrate to it. However, when it has risen to the height of one or two spears, then you may pray, for this is the time when the angels are present at the prayer, until the shadow of the spear begins to appear, then refrain from prayer, for at that time Hell is stoked. But when the shadow declines, you may pray, for in this prayer too the angels are present, until you have performed the Asr prayer. After the Asr prayer, refrain from offering voluntary prayers until sunset, for it sets between the two horns of Satan and at that time the disbelievers prostrate to it."

Saleem bin Aamir says that once Hazrat Ameer Muawiya (may Allah be pleased with him) set out with an army towards the land of Rome. There was still some time left in the agreement between Hazrat Muawiya (may Allah be pleased with him) and the Romans. Hazrat Muawiya (may Allah be pleased with him) thought that they would stop after getting close to them, and as soon as the term ended, they would start fighting them. But it was seen that an old man riding a mount was going along saying, "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar! The promise should be fulfilled, the covenant should not be broken. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has said: 'If a person has an agreement with any nation, he should not untie or tie its knot before the term ends or before they break the covenant from their side.'" When Hazrat Muawiya (may Allah be pleased with him) came to know of this, he turned back, and it was found out that the old man was Hazrat Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him).

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him) that my heart became disillusioned with the idols of my people during the time of ignorance. So I inquired about the Prophet (peace be upon him), and found out that he was keeping himself hidden. I reached there by means of some cleverness, greeted him with Salam, and asked, "Who are you?" He replied, "A Prophet!" I asked, "What is a Prophet?" He replied, "A messenger of Allah." I asked, "Who has sent you?" He replied, "Allah Almighty." I asked, "With what message has He sent you?" He replied, "With the message of maintaining ties of kinship, protecting lives, establishing peace and security on the roads, breaking idols, and worshipping Allah in such a way that no one is associated with Him." I said, "You have been sent as a caller to the best of things, and I bear witness before you that I have believed in you and affirm you. Should I stay with you or what do you advise?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "For now, you see how much people are expressing dislike for my teachings, so for the time being, return to your home, and when you hear of my emergence, then come to me." ... Then he mentioned the complete hadith.

It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Absa (may Allah be pleased with him) that I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) rinsing his mouth and cleaning his nose during Ramadan.

It is narrated from Hazrat Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I presented myself in the court of the Messenger and said: O Messenger of Allah! Who has accepted Islam with you? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Both the free and the slave" (Hazrat Abu Bakr and Hazrat Bilal, may Allah be pleased with them). I said: O Messenger of Allah! Teach me some of the knowledge that Allah has given you. Is there any time that is more virtuous? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The last part of the night is the most virtuous, at that time the angels are present and the prayer is accepted. When you have performed the Fajr prayer, refrain from offering voluntary prayers until the sun rises. Even when the sun rises, do not pray until the sun has risen high, because when it rises, it rises between the two horns of Satan, and at that time the disbelievers prostrate to it. However, when it has risen to the height of one or two spears, then you may pray, for this is the time when the angels are present, until the shadow of a spear appears, then refrain from prayer, for at that time Hell is kindled. However, when the shadow declines, you may pray, for in this prayer too the angels are present, until you have performed the Asr prayer. After the Asr prayer, refrain from offering voluntary prayers until sunset, for it sets between the two horns of Satan and at that time the disbelievers prostrate to it." And Hazrat Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say that I am a quarter of Islam, and Abdur Rahman bin Beilmani used to offer two rak'ahs after Asr.
