Hazrat Saeed bin Abi Burdah narrates from his father that the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) sent his grandfather, Hazrat Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him), and Mu’adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) as governors to Yemen and said: Make things easy for the people, do not put them in difficulties. Give people glad tidings, do not make them averse to the religion, and both of you should be in agreement with each other. Upon this, Abu Musa Ash’ari (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted:“O Messenger of Allah! In our country, a wine is made from barley which is called ‘al-mizr’, and a wine is made from honey which is called ‘al-bita’.”The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Every intoxicating thing is forbidden.

Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever drank alcohol in the world and did not repent from it, then in the Hereafter he will be deprived of it. (That is, if he does not even enter Paradise, how will he attain the wine of Paradise?)

Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Hazrat Abu Usaid Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) invited the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to his wedding. His bride, Umm Usaid Salamah bint Wahb, was working and she herself was the bride. Hazrat Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) said,“Do you know what he served the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to drink on that occasion? At night, he had soaked some dates in water. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) finished eating, he was given that (water) to drink.”

Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’d Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that when Hazrat Abu Usaid Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) got married, he invited the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions (may Allah be pleased with them). On that occasion, the food was prepared by his bride, Umm Usaid (may Allah be pleased with her). She herself served it before the men. She had soaked some dates in a large stone bowl overnight, and when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) finished eating, she herself made its syrup and presented it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to drink as a gift.

Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that an Arab woman was mentioned to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Then he ordered Hazrat Abu Usaid Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) to send someone to bring her. So he sent for her, and she came and stayed at the fortress of Banu Sa’ida, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also came and went to her. He saw that a woman was sitting with her head bowed. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke to her, she said,“I seek refuge with Allah from you.”The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to this,“I have granted you refuge.”Later, people asked her,“Do you know who he was?”The woman replied,“No.”The people said,“That was the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); he had come to you for marriage.”Upon this, she said,“Then I am indeed unfortunate (that I turned away and displeased the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him).”On the same day, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came and sat with his companions in the Saqifah of Banu Sa’ida, then said,“Sahl! Serve water.”I brought out this cup for him and gave him water in it. (The narrator of the hadith said) Hazrat Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) also brought out the same cup for us and we also drank water from it. The narrator stated that later, Caliph Umar bin Abdul Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) requested it from him, and he gifted it to him.

Abu Ishaq narrates that I heard Hazrat Bara bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) say that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out for Madinah, Suraqah bin Malik bin Ju'sham pursued him. The Prophet (peace be upon him) supplicated against him, so his horse sank into the ground. He requested, "Pray to Allah for me (that I may be saved from this calamity); I will not harm you." The Prophet (peace be upon him) prayed for him (and his horse came out of the ground). Hazrat Bara said that once, on the way, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) felt thirsty. Just then, a shepherd passed by. Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that then I took a bowl and milked a little milk from one of the flock's goats. I brought that milk and presented it to the Prophet (peace be upon him), who drank it until I was pleased.

Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that on the night of Mi'raj, two cups were presented before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in Bayt al-Maqdis: one of wine and the other of milk. The Prophet (peace be upon him) looked at both, then picked up the cup of milk. Upon this, Jibreel (peace be upon him) said, "All praise is due to Allah who guided you to the natural disposition (Islam). If you had picked up the cup of wine, your Ummah would have gone astray."

Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Ansari companion Abu Humayd Sa'idi brought a bowl of milk (uncovered) from the place Naqi', so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to him, "Why did you not cover it? You could have placed even a stick over it."

Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: When the darkness of night begins, or (he said) when evening comes, keep your children close to you, for the devils spread out at that time. But when an hour of the night has passed, then let them go, and mention the name of Allah when closing the doors, for the devil cannot open a closed door.

Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you go to sleep, do not leave a fire burning in the house.
