It is narrated from Hazrat Mughira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once Hazrat Muawiya (may Allah be pleased with him) was written a letter—written by his scribe Waraad—that I heard the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying these words at the time of concluding the prayer: "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." Waraad says that after this, once I was present in the service of Hazrat Muawiya (may Allah be pleased with him), and I heard him from the pulpit instructing people to say these words; he was teaching these words to the people.

Ali bin Rabi’ah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that a certain Ansari named Qarta bin Ka’b passed away and wailing and lamentation began over him. Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) came out of his house, ascended the pulpit, and after praising and glorifying Allah, said: What is this wailing in Islam? I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Lying about me is not like lying about an ordinary person. Beware! Whoever deliberately lies about me should prepare his abode in Hell. Beware! I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The person over whom wailing is done is punished because of that wailing.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I assisted the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in performing ablution during a journey. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) washed his face and arms and wiped over his head and his leather socks. I said, "O Messenger of Allah! Should I not remove your socks?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "No, I put them on while I was in a state of ablution, so I did not take them off after that." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the Fajr prayer in this manner.

Aamir says that once, during the forenoon, there was a solar eclipse and the sky became extremely dark. Seeing this, Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up and began to lead the people in prayer. He prolonged the standing (qiyam) so much that a surah from the "Mathani" could be recited in it, and he made the bowing (ruku) just as long. After raising his head from ruku, he again performed a bowing of equal length, then after raising his head, he stood for the same duration, and he performed the second rak’ah in the same manner. By that time, the sun had become bright again. Then he completed the prostration and prayer, ascended the pulpit, and said that on the day when the son of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Hazrat Ibrahim, passed away, there was a solar eclipse, and the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood and delivered a sermon, saying: "The sun and the moon do not eclipse because of anyone’s death; they are two of Allah’s signs. Therefore, whenever you see an eclipse of either of them, turn immediately to prayer." After this, he descended from the pulpit and narrated this hadith: When the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was leading the eclipse prayer, during it he began to blow (as if to ward off something) in front of him, then he stretched out his hand as if he wanted to grasp something, and after completing the prayer, he said: "Hell was brought so close to me that I began to blow to ward off its heat from my face. I saw in Hell the man with a stick, the one who invented the custom of letting animals loose in the name of idols, and the Himyari woman who used to tie up a cat." The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

Abdullah ibn Ahmad said: Sa'id ibn Yahya ibn Sa'id al-Umawi narrated to us, he said: My father narrated to me, al-Mujalid narrated to us, from 'Amir, the same (report).

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the verdict of blood money upon the male relatives of the killer in the case of two women from Banu Huzail, and inheritance for the heirs, and for the loss of the child in her womb, he gave the verdict of a male or female slave.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he was once with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went into a valley to relieve himself. After returning from there, he performed ablution and removed his leather socks (khuffs) to perform ablution. After completing ablution, he felt the passing of wind, so he went away again. Upon returning, he performed ablution and this time wiped over his leather socks. I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! Perhaps you forgot that you did not remove your socks?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Absolutely not, you have forgotten. My Lord has commanded me to do this."

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughira (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever bathes a deceased person should also perform ghusl himself.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty dislikes three things for you: idle talk, excessive questioning, and wasting wealth. And the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has declared it forbidden for you to bury daughters alive, to disobey mothers, to withhold wealth, and to beg.

It is narrated from Hazrat Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) that two women had a fight, and one of them killed the other by striking her with a tent pole. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) ruled that the blood money (diyah) should be paid by the male relatives ('asaba) of the killer, and for the loss of the unborn child in her womb, he ruled for a male or female slave as compensation. A Bedouin said, "You impose compensation on me for a life that neither ate nor drank, neither cried nor moved; such a life is usually overlooked." The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "This is the kind of rhymed speech Bedouins use, but the ruling remains that for the loss of that child, the compensation is a male or female slave."
