It is narrated from Hazrat Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day I met my uncle Harith bin Amr. He had a flag with him. I asked him, "Where are you going?" He replied, "The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has sent us to a man who, after his father's death, has married his father's wife (stepmother), and he has ordered me to behead him."

Yunus bin Ubaid, may Allah have mercy on him, says that my master Muhammad bin Qasim, may Allah have mercy on him, sent me to ask Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) what was the flag of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) like? He replied: It was a black, square flag made from the skin of a leopard.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of Eid al-Adha, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed us after the prayer.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Umrah before Hajj. When Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) came to know of this, she said that Bara’ knows that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Umrah four times, including the Umrah performed with Hajj.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that once (on the day of Eid al-Adha) the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed us and said: Today we will begin the day by offering the prayer, then return home and perform the sacrifice. Whoever does so has reached our way, and whoever performs the sacrifice before the Eid prayer, it is merely meat that he has given to his family earlier; it has nothing to do with the sacrifice. My uncle, Hazrat Abu Burdah bin Niyar (may Allah be pleased with him), had already slaughtered his animal before the Eid prayer. He said,“O Messenger of Allah! I have already slaughtered my animal, but now I have a six-month-old kid which is better than a year-old animal.”The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“Slaughter it in its place, but no one else besides you is permitted to do so.”

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to sleep, he would make his right hand a pillow and recite this supplication: O Allah! On the day You gather Your servants, protect me from Your punishment.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that whenever the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from a journey, he would recite this supplication: "We are returning in repentance, and we are worshippers of our Lord and praisers of Him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of the Battle of Badr, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) considered me and Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) as children, so we were sent back.

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that the manner of the prayer of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was such that when he (peace be upon him) prayed, bowed (in ruku‘), raised his head from ruku‘, prostrated (in sajdah), raised his head from sajdah, and between the two prostrations, at all these points, the duration was equal. We do not know which of these is more virtuous?

It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that in the month of Dhu al-Qa’dah, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out for Umrah, but the people of Makkah prevented him from entering Makkah until the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made a treaty with them on the condition that he would stay in Makkah for only three days. When people sat down to write the document of this agreement, they wrote in it the words“Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah”(peace and blessings be upon him), but the polytheists said,“Do not write this word, because if you were the Messenger of Allah, we would never have fought you.”The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him),“Erase this word.”Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said,“I cannot erase it.”So the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) erased it himself with his blessed hand, even though the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had not learned to read or write, and in its place wrote:“This is the decision which Muhammad bin Abdullah has made with the people of Makkah, that they will not bring any weapons into Makkah except a sword in its sheath, they will not take anyone out of Makkah except if someone himself wishes to go with them, and they will not prevent any of their companions from staying in Makkah.”So, after entering Makkah, when three days had passed, the polytheists of Makkah came to Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and said,“Tell your companion to depart, for the period has been completed.”So the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) departed. The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
