Once, Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote a letter to Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) asking him to write something he had heard from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). In reply, he wrote: I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Allah dislikes three things for you: idle talk, excessive questioning, and wasting wealth.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever cauterizes his body with fire or recites incantations is free from reliance (tawakkul).

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The rider should follow behind the funeral, and the one walking on foot has the choice (to go ahead or behind, to the right side or to the left side). And the funeral prayer will be offered for a minor child, in which forgiveness and mercy will be supplicated for his parents.

Amr bin Wahb, may Allah have mercy on him, says that once we were with Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu’bah, may Allah be pleased with him, when someone asked him:“Other than Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, has there been anyone else in this Ummah in whose leadership the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, has performed prayer?”He replied:“Yes! Once we were on a journey with the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. In the morning, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, knocked on the door of my tent. I understood that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, wanted to go to relieve himself, so I set out with him until we walked far away from the people. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, dismounted from his ride and went to relieve himself and disappeared from my sight. After a short while, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, returned and said: ‘Mughirah! You also fulfill your need.’ I said: ‘I do not need to at this time.’ The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, asked: ‘Do you have water?’ I replied: ‘Yes!’ and went to bring the water-skin that was hanging at the back of the saddle. I brought the water to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and kept pouring it. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, first washed both hands thoroughly, then washed his face. After that, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, tried to roll up his sleeves, but the Syrian cloak that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was wearing had tight sleeves, so they could not be rolled up. Therefore, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, took both hands out from underneath, washed his face and hands, wiped over the amount of his head equal to the forehead, wiped over his turban, and wiped over his leather socks, and then mounted his ride for the return. When we reached the people, the prayer had already started and Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Awf, may Allah be pleased with him, had led one rak’ah and was in the second rak’ah. I started to go and inform him, but the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, stopped me, and we joined in the rak’ah that we caught, and whatever we missed, we completed after the salam.

Hazrat Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) once wrote a letter to Hazrat Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) asking him to write and send something that he had heard from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He replied that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would finish the prayer, he used to say: There is no deity except Allah, He is One, He has no partner, sovereignty belongs to Him and all praise is for Him. O Allah! No one can withhold what You give, and no one can give what You withhold, and the status of any person of status cannot benefit him before You.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever narrates a hadith from me and he understands that he is lying, then he is one of the two liars.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughira (may Allah be pleased with him) that we used to perform the Zuhr prayer with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) during the midday heat. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) once said to us: "Perform the prayer at a cooler time, for the severity of heat is from the effect of Hell."

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) holding the back of Sufyan bin Abi Sahil and saying, "O Sufyan bin Abi Sahil, do not let your lower garment hang below the ankles, for Allah does not like those who let their lower garment hang below the ankles." The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
