It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that after performing Tawaf, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the place where Zamzam water was being served and said: "Give me some to drink." They said: "People keep affecting this water; we will bring (clean) water for you from the house." But the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is no need for that; give me to drink from the same place where people are drinking."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that in the marketplace of Madinah, a Jew said: "By the One Who gave Musa superiority over all mankind." Upon hearing these words, an Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him), out of zeal, slapped him and said: "How dare you say this while the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is present among us?" That Jew went to complain to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse in response: {وَنُفِخَ فِی الصُّورِ فَصَعِقَ مَنْ فِی السَّمٰوَاتِ وَمَنْ فِی الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا مَنْ شَآئَ اللّٰہُ ثُمَّ نُفِخَ فِیہِ أُخْرٰی فَإِذَا ہُمْ قِیَامٌیَنْظُرُونَ} … And when the Trumpet will be blown for the first time, the creatures of the heavens will fall unconscious except those whom Allah wills. Then it will be blown again, and all will rise up, looking on. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: At that time, I will be the first to regain consciousness and raise my head, but I will see that Musa (peace be upon him) is standing, holding one of the pillars of the Throne. I will not know whether he regained consciousness before me or whether he is among those who were exempted from falling unconscious. And (remember that) whoever says that I (Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him) am superior to Yunus bin Matta, he has spoken incorrectly.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by Baqi’ al-Gharqad on a very hot day, and people were walking behind him. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard the sound of the people’s shoes, it was burdensome for him, so he sat down right there until the people passed ahead of him, so that no pride would arise in his heart (because people were walking behind him). When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by Baqi’ al-Gharqad, he saw two graves; people had buried two men in them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stopped there and asked:“Who have you buried here today?”The Companions replied:“O Messenger of Allah! These are such-and-such two men.”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“They are being punished in their graves right now.”The Companions asked:“O Messenger of Allah! What is the reason for their punishment?”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“One of them did not protect himself from urine, and the other used to carry tales (gossip).”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took a fresh twig, split it, and placed it on both graves. The Companions asked:“O Messenger of Allah! Why did you do this?”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Because of this, their punishment will be lightened.”The Companions said:“O Messenger of Allah! For how long will Allah punish them?”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“This is a matter of the unseen, which no one knows except Allah.”Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“If the changing states of your hearts or excessive speech did not occur, you would also hear what I hear.”

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out to go somewhere, the Companions would walk ahead of him and would leave his back for the angels.

It is narrated from Urwah bin Zubair that Sayyida Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) was asked: What kind of work did the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) do when he came home? (That is, what was his occupation at home?) She said: (When the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, came home, he used to do the same kind of work) as you do, for example, he would mend his own shoes and sew his own clothes.

(Second chain) It is narrated from Urwah that a person asked Sayyida Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) whether Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do any work at home. She said: Yes, he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to mend his own shoes, sew his own clothes, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to work in his house just as any one of you works in his own house.

It is narrated from Qasim that Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) was asked: What was the occupation of Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) at home? She replied: He was also a human being, so (like other people) he would inspect his clothes for lice, milk the goat, and do his own work.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Jew invited the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to a meal of barley bread and a dish with a strong smell. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) accepted his invitation. The narrator of the hadith, Aban, mentioned on one occasion that the person who invited was a tailor.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) went to Yemen or Syria and saw that the Christians prostrate to their leaders and priests. He thought in his heart that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is more deserving of such reverence. Then when he returned, he said: O Messenger of Allah! I saw the Christians prostrating to their leaders and priests, and it occurred to me in my heart that you are more deserving of this reverence. But the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If I were to command anyone to prostrate to anyone other than Allah Almighty, I would have commanded a woman to prostrate to her husband. A wife cannot fulfill the rights of Allah Almighty until she fulfills the rights of her husband as they are due. If the husband calls his wife for marital relations and she is sitting on a saddle, she must fulfill her husband's request.

Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila narrates from his father that Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) stated that he went to the land of Sham (Greater Syria). (From here onwards, it is like the previous hadith.) He said, "I asked them, 'Why do you prostrate to your leaders?'" They replied, "In the laws of the prophets before us, this was the way of greeting." So I said, "(If that is the case,) then we are more deserving to do this with our Prophet." Upon hearing this, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Just as those people altered their religious books, they also lied about their prophets. Indeed, Allah Almighty has given us a better greeting than theirs, the greeting of the people of Paradise."
