It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when Surah al-An'am was revealed, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah), then he said: "Indeed, so many angels accompanied this surah that they filled the horizon." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, for its narrator Isma'il is this very al-Suddi, and Imam Bukhari did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning the saying of Allah Almighty: "Then He decreed a term, and a specified term is with Him" [Surah al-An'am: 2] that he said: These are two terms: one is the term of the life of this world, and the other is the specified term of the Hereafter which is with Allah and which no one knows except Allah. And concerning the saying of Allah: "And even if We had sent down to you a writing on parchment and they touched it with their hands" [Surah al-An'am: 7] he said: (That is,) even if they touched it and saw it with their own eyes, they still would not believe. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning this saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: "And they forbid (others) from him and keep away from him themselves" [Surah al-An'am: 26] that he said: This verse was revealed concerning Abu Talib. He used to prevent the idolaters from harming the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but he himself kept away from the (religion) that he (peace and blessings be upon him) had brought.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: "And they forbid (others) from him and keep away from him themselves" that he said: This verse was revealed concerning Abu Talib. He used to forbid the idolaters from harming him (peace and blessings be upon him), while he himself kept away from him (peace and blessings be upon him). The narration of Hamzah from Habib is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that Abu Jahl said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "O Muhammad! We certainly know that you maintain the ties of kinship and speak the truth. We do not deny you; rather, we deny that (law) which you have brought." Then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: "We know well that what they say grieves you, but they do not deny you; rather, it is the signs of Allah that the wrongdoers reject" [Surah al-An'am: 33] . This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) concerning the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: "They are communities like you" [Surah al-An'am: 38] that he said: On the Day of Resurrection all creatures will be gathered: cattle, animals, birds and everything. The justice of Allah will reach the point that He will take retribution for the hornless goat from the horned goat. Then Allah will say: "Become dust." That is why the disbeliever will say (in regret): "Oh, would that I were dust!" [Surah an-Naba: 40] . This Ja'far al-Jazari is Ibn Burqan, whom Imam Muslim used as evidence, and this hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) that he recited this verse: "Those who believe and do not mix their faith with wrongdoing" [Surah al-An'am: 82] and said: "This (verse) is about Sayyiduna Ibrahim (peace be upon him) and his companions; it is not for this Ummah." This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it. However, the two Shaykhs agreed upon the narration of al-A'mash which he transmitted from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Companions said: "O Messenger of Allah! Which of us has not wronged himself?" (That is, they understood ordinary sins to be the wrongdoing meant.) That is a long hadith, but this interpretation (that it is only for Ibrahim (peace be upon him)) is not mentioned in it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning this saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: "And He knows its place of settlement and its place of deposit" [Surah Hud: 6] that he said: "Mustaqarr (the place of settlement) refers to the mother's womb, in which there is one who is alive or has died, and mustawda' (the place of deposit) refers to the man's loins (sulb)."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he was asked: "Did Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) see his Lord?" He said: "Yes, he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw (Him); it was as if his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed feet were upon a green carpet, and before him was a curtain of pearls." The narrator said: I said: "O Abu Abbas! Does Allah Almighty not say: 'Vision cannot grasp Him, but He grasps all vision' [Surah al-An'am: 103] ?" He said: "May good come to you! That is His own light: when Allah manifests Himself with His light, nothing can grasp Him." This hadith has an authentic (sahih) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
