Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "A group from the Children of Israel went missing; it is not known what became of them. I think they turned into mice. Have you not seen that when it finds camel's milk, it does not drink it, and when it finds goat's milk, it drinks it?"

Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: After performing the Fajr prayer, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) would remain seated on his prayer mat until the sun rose. During this time, the people would also remain seated. They would converse with each other and laugh by recalling incidents from the days of ignorance, while the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) would only smile.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "I saw ‘Amr bin ‘Amir Khuza‘i dragging his intestines in Hell. He was the first person to initiate the practice of dedicating animals in the name of idols." Sa‘id bin al-Musayyib says: Sa’ibah is that animal which is dedicated in the name of an idol and is not made to carry any load. Bahirah is that animal whose milk is dedicated for idols and no person is allowed to milk it. Wasilah is that young she-camel which gives birth to a she-camel for the first time and then again gives birth to a she-camel the second time; they would dedicate this she-camel to idols and call it Wasilah because the two (female offspring) are joined together (i.e., there is no male offspring in between). Ham refers to that male camel which has been used for mating ten times; when it completes its mating, they would dedicate it in the name of idols and would not load anything on it, nor would they put any burden on it, and its name would be Ham.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates: In the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), in the time of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), in the time of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and in the time of Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), storytelling did not take place. Storytelling began in the times of tribulations.

Tawoos narrates: It was asked from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) about this verse: "Say: I do not ask you for any reward for it except love for kinship." So Saeed bin Jubair said: By this is meant the close relatives of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: You have acted hastily. The Prophet (peace be upon him) had some relation with every branch of the Quraish, so the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Take care of the rights of the kinship that exists between me and you.

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "People follow the Quraysh in every matter, whether good or bad."

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "The Ansar are people who refrain from asking and are patient. Indeed, people follow the Quraysh in matters of governance. The believers follow the Quraysh, and the sinners (i.e., disbelievers) follow the disbelievers of Quraysh."

Sayyiduna Jubair bin Mut'im (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "A Quraishi has the strength of two men from among the non-Quraish." A person asked Ibn Shihab what is meant by this. He replied: Having understanding and intelligence in opinion.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This matter (i.e., leadership) will remain continuously among the Quraysh as long as there are two people left among the people." The narrator named Asim says: He moved his two fingers while narrating this (hadith).

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The women of Quraysh are the best among the women who ride camels (i.e., Arab women); they are the most compassionate towards their children and take the greatest care of their husband's household." After this, Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Lady Maryam bint Imran (may Allah be pleased with her) never rode a camel.
