حدثنا وكيع , حدثنا حماد بن سلمة , عن ابي غالب , عن ابي امامة , انه راى رءوسا منصوبة على درج مسجد دمشق , فقال ابو امامة: " كلاب النار , كلاب النار, ثلاثا شر قتلى تحت اديم السماء , خير قتلى من قتلوه" , ثم قرا يوم تبيض وجوه وتسود وجوه سورة آل عمران آية 106 الآيتين , قلت لابي امامة: اسمعته من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم؟ قال: لو لم اسمعه إلا مرتين , او ثلاثا , او اربعا , او خمسا , او ستا , او سبعا ما حدثتكم.
Abu Ghalib says that some heads of the Khawarij were brought from Iraq and hung at the gate of the mosque of Damascus. Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) came and began to weep, and said three times, "They are the dogs of Hell," and three times, "The worst of those killed under the shade of the sky," and "The best of those killed under the shade of the sky was the one whom they martyred." After a little while, when he returned, someone asked, "Then why were you weeping?" He replied, "I felt pity for them." O Abu Umamah! This statement of yours, 'the dogs of Hell,' did you hear it from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), or are you saying it from your own opinion?" He replied, "Subhan Allah! If I have heard something from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) up to seven times, and then omit the mention of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in between, then I would be very bold indeed."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah Bahili (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty has granted me four virtues over all the prophets (peace be upon them) or nations: I have been sent to all of humanity; the entire earth has been made a place of prostration and a means of purification for me and my ummah, so wherever the time of prayer comes upon a member of my ummah, that place is his mosque and there is soil for his purification; and I have been helped by awe (instilled) in the hearts of my enemies from a distance of one month's journey; and spoils of war have been made lawful for us.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a young man came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! Grant me permission to commit adultery." The people turned towards him and began to scold him and tried to push him back, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Come near me." He came close and sat near the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him, "Would you like adultery for your mother?" He replied, "By Allah! Never, may I be sacrificed for you." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "People also do not like it for their mothers." Then he asked, "Would you like adultery for your daughter?" He replied, "By Allah! Never, may I be sacrificed for you." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "People also do not like it for their daughters." Then he asked, "Would you like adultery for your sister?" He replied, "By Allah! Never, may I be sacrificed for you." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "People also do not like it for their sisters." Then he asked, "Would you like adultery for your paternal aunt?" He replied, "By Allah! Never, may I be sacrificed for you." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "People also do not like it for their paternal aunts." Then he asked, "Would you like adultery for your maternal aunt?" He replied, "By Allah! Never, may I be sacrificed for you." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "People also do not like it for their maternal aunts." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand on his body and prayed, "O Allah! Forgive his sins, purify his heart, and guard his private parts." The narrator says that after this, the young man never even turned his attention towards anyone.

حدثنا يزيد بن هارون , اخبرنا هشام , عن يحيى , عن زيد بن سلام , عن ابي سلام , انه سمع ابا امامة , يقول: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " اقرءوا القرآن , فإنه ياتي شافعا لاصحابه يوم القيامة , اقرءوا الزهراوين البقرة وآل عمران , فإنهما ياتيان يوم القيامة كانهما غمامتان او غيايتان , او كانهما فرقان من طير صواف يحاجان عن صاحبهما , واقرءوا سورة البقرة , فإن اخذها بركة , وتركها حسرة , ولا تستطيعها البطلة" , قال عبد الله: هذا الحديث املاه يزيد بن هارون بواسط.
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Recite the Noble Qur’an, for it will intercede for its reciters on the Day of Resurrection. Recite the two radiant surahs, that is, Surah Al-Baqarah and Al-Imran, for these two surahs will come on the Day of Resurrection in the form of canopies or in the form of two flocks of birds in ranks, and they will defend their reciters. Then he said: Recite Surah Al-Baqarah, for acquiring it is a blessing and abandoning it is a cause of regret, and falsehood (magicians) cannot overcome it.
