It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that on the occasion of the Farewell Hajj, on the Day of Sacrifice (Yawm al-Nahr), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood between the Jamarat and asked the people: "What day is this?" The people said: "This is the Day of Sacrifice." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What city is this?" They said: "This is the Sacred City (Makkah)." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What month is this?" They said: "This is the Sacred Month." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is the day of the Greater Hajj. So your blood, your wealth and your honour are sacred to you, just as the sanctity of this city of yours on this day." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Have I conveyed (Allah's message)?" The people said: "Yes." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) began to say: "O Allah, bear witness." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) bade farewell to the people, and the people said: "This is the Farewell Hajj." This hadith is sahih in its chain, but the two Shaykhs did not record it with this wording. However, most of this text is found in the two Sahihs, except the saying "The day of the Greater Hajj is the Day of Sacrifice", because the statements of the Companions and the Successors differ on this: some of them said it is the Day of Arafah, and some said it is the Day of Sacrifice.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever departs from this world in a state of sincerity to Allah alone, who has no partner, establishing the prayer and giving zakah, departs from it while Allah is pleased with him." And this is the original religion of Allah which all the messengers brought, and which they conveyed from their Lord before words became confused and differing desires arose. The confirmation of this is in the Book of Allah, in these verses: "But if they repent, establish the prayer and give zakah, then let them go their way" [Surah al-Tawbah: 5] . And He said: "But if they repent", meaning they renounce idols and their worship. And in another place He said: "But if they repent, establish the prayer and give zakah, then they are your brothers in religion" [Surah al-Tawbah: 11] . This hadith is sahih in its chain, and the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) concerning the saying of Allah Almighty: "Then fight the leaders of disbelief; indeed, there are no oaths for them" [Surah al-Tawbah: 12] , that he said: "There is no covenant for them." And he said: "They have not yet been fought (meaning this command concerns future trials)." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning the saying of Allah Almighty: "Then fight the leaders of disbelief" [Surah al-Tawbah: 12] , that he said: "(It refers to) Abu Jahl bin Hisham, Umayyah bin Khalaf, Utbah bin Rabi'ah, Abu Sufyan bin Harb and Suhayl bin Amr. They are the ones who broke the covenant of Allah and intended to expel the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) from Makkah." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you see a man who is devoted to the mosque, then do not hesitate to bear witness that he is a believer, for Allah Almighty says: 'The mosques of Allah are only maintained by those who believe in Allah' [Surah al-Tawbah: 18] ." This hadith is sahih in its chain, and the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when this verse was revealed: "And those who hoard gold and silver and do not spend it in the way of Allah" [Surah al-Tawbah: 34] , it weighed very heavily upon the Muslims and they said: "None of us is able to leave wealth for his children that would remain after him (that is, they were distressed by the warning of punishment for hoarded wealth)." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I will relieve you of this worry." The narrator said: They all set off, and Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) followed behind Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). They came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Prophet of Allah, this verse has weighed heavily upon your Companions." The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah made zakah obligatory only to purify with it the rest of your wealth, and He made the laws of inheritance obligatory only for wealth that remains after you." The narrator said: At this Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said "Allahu Akbar" (with joy). Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Shall I not tell you of the best thing a person can store up as treasure? It is a righteous wife: when (her husband) looks at her she pleases him, when he gives her an instruction she obeys him, and when he is absent from her she guards him (his honour and property)." This hadith is sahih in its chain, and the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Miqdad bin al-Aswad (may Allah be pleased with him) that he was sitting on a small chest in Damascus. A man said to him: "If only you would stay back from the military expedition this year." He said: "'Al-Buhuth', that is, Surah al-Tawbah, has prevented us (from staying at home). Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has said: 'Go forth, whether light or heavy' [Surah al-Tawbah: 41] , and I find myself only light (ready and fit)." This hadith is sahih in its chain, and the two Shaykhs 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: "Do they not know that it is Allah who accepts repentance from His servants and receives charities?" [Surah al-Tawbah: 104] , that he said: "Indeed, Allah accepts charity provided it is from pure (lawful) earnings, and He takes it in His right hand. And indeed, if a man gives in charity even the like of a morsel, Allah nurtures it for him just as one of you nurtures his young camel or his foal, until it grows in the palm of Allah, or he said: in the hand of Allah, until it becomes like (Mount) Uhud." The two Shaykhs agreed on recording the hadith of Abu al-Hubab Sa'id bin Yasar from Abu Hurayrah with wording other than this. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the mosque whose foundation was laid on piety, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is this mosque of mine." This hadith is sahih in its chain, and the two Shaykhs did not record it. Its supporting report (shahid), which is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), is even more authentic than it.

Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from his father that he said: The mosque whose foundation was laid on piety is the mosque of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
