It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever accompanies a funeral and participates in the funeral prayer will receive the reward of one qirat, and whoever remains with the funeral until the burial will receive the reward of two qirats, and each qirat is equal to Mount Uhud. The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.

Abu Abd al-Rahman said: Salih ibn Abd Allah al-Tirmidhi and Abu Ma'mar narrated to us, they said: Abthar ibn al-Qasim Abu Zubayd narrated to us, from Burd the brother of Yazid ibn Abi Ziyad, from al-Musayyab ibn Rafi', from al-Bara', from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, something similar.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that I had the honor of offering prayer with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I found his standing (qiyam), the pause after bowing (ruku’), prostration (sajdah), the sitting between the two prostrations, the final sitting (qa’dah akheerah), and the interval between turning for salam and returning to be almost equal in duration.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you perform prostration, place your palms on the ground and keep your arms raised above.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of the Battle of Uhud, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) appointed Hazrat Abdullah bin Jubair (may Allah be pleased with him) over fifty archers and stationed them at a place, saying: "If you see us in such a state that birds are snatching us away, even then do not move from your place until I send a message to you. And if you see us prevailing over the enemy and trampling them, even then do not move from your place until I send a message to you." But when they saw the spoils of war, they said, "People! Spoils of war!" Hazrat Abdullah bin Jubair (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Are you forgetting what the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) told you?" They did not listen to him. Thus, this verse was revealed: "When you saw the things you desired, you began to disobey," meaning when you saw the spoils of war and the defeat of the enemy, you did not obey the command of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were going with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) when his gaze fell upon some people. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked,“Why are these people gathered here?”It was informed that they were digging a grave. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) quickly moved ahead of his companions until he reached near the grave and leaned over it. I too hurried forward to see what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was doing. There, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was weeping so much that the soil became wet with his tears. Then, turning towards us, he said,“Brothers! Prepare for this day.”

Muhammad bin Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I saw a gold ring on the hand of Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him). People were saying to him,“Why are you wearing a gold ring when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has prohibited it?”He replied,“Once we were present with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). In front of him was a heap of war booty which the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was distributing. Among them were captives and ordinary things as well. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) distributed all those things until only this ring remained. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his gaze and looked at his companions, then lowered his eyes. This happened three times. Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called me by name. I came and sat before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took that ring and, holding the part of my little finger near the joint, said, ‘Take this and wear it. Whatever Allah and His Messenger make you wear, wear it.’ So how can you tell me to take it off when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me that whatever Allah and His Messenger make you wear, wear it?”

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would wake up, he would say: "All praise is due to Allah who gave us life after causing us to die, and to Him is the gathering." And when he would go to sleep, he would say: "O Allah! In Your name I live and in Your name I die."

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara' (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would place the inner part of his palm on the ground while prostrating.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that I accompanied the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on more than ten journeys of jihad. I never saw him abandon the two rak‘ahs before Zuhr.
