It is narrated from Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that once, during a journey, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) camped at a place and said, "On the Day of Resurrection, those who come to me at the Pond of Kawthar will not even be one hundred-thousandth of you." We asked Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him), "How many were you at that time?" He replied, "Seven hundred or eight hundred."

It is narrated from Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Forgive the Ansar, their sons, and their grandsons. The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

Bahz narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, Qatadah informed me, from al-Nadr ibn Anas, from Zayd ibn Arqam, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, and he mentioned the like of it.

Ibn Abi Layla says that when we would go to Hazrat Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) and request him to narrate a hadith, he would say that we have grown old and have forgotten, and narrating a hadith from the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is a very difficult task.

It is narrated from Hazrat Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were on a journey with the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). We camped at the place of "Ghadir Khumm." After a while, the call of "As-Salatu Jami'ah" was made. A place was prepared for the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) under two trees. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the Zuhr prayer, and holding the hand of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), he said twice: "Do you not know that I have more right over the believers than their own selves?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "Why not!" Then the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) pressed the hand of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "Whoever I am a beloved to, Ali should also be a beloved to him. O Allah, O Allah! Love the one who loves Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), and be the enemy of the one who is hostile to him."

Abu Minhal (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I asked Hazrat Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) and Hazrat Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) about the exchange of currency. They said: Ask him, he knows better and is more knowledgeable than me. And he said: Ask him, he knows better and is more knowledgeable than me. In any case, both of them said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the deferred sale and purchase of silver in exchange for gold.

Maimun says that once I was sitting with Hazrat Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) when a man came from the end of the tent and asked him about an illness. During the conversation, he said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do I not have more right over the Muslims than their own selves?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "Why not!" Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) held the hand of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "Whoever I am beloved to, Ali should also be beloved to him." Maimun, through another chain of narration, also reports this addition: "O Allah! Love the one who loves Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), and be hostile to the one who is hostile to him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was in Yemen, a woman was brought to him with whom three men had committed adultery in the same period of purity. He asked two of the men, "Do you acknowledge the child for this person?" They did not acknowledge. In this way, he kept questioning each one together with the other until this stage was completed, and none of them acknowledged the child. Then he cast lots among them, and the one whose name came out, the child was attributed to him, and two-thirds of the blood money was fixed upon him. When this matter was presented before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled so much that his blessed teeth became visible.

Once, we also asked him this same question, and he said: If the transaction is in cash, then there is no harm, but if it is on credit, then it is not correct.
