It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man from the tribe of Banu Sulaym passed by a group of the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he had his sheep with him. He greeted them with salam. The Companions said (among themselves): He has greeted you only to save himself from you. So they went for him, killed him and took his sheep, then brought them to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Then Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: "O you who believe, when you go forth in the way of Allah, investigate, and do not say to one who offers you a greeting of peace, 'You are not a believer'" [Surah al-Nisa: 94] , up to His saying: "You yourselves were like that before, then Allah conferred His favour upon you, so investigate" [Surah al-Nisa: 94] . This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

Abdullah bin Ubayd bin Umayr narrates from his father that he said: I said to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her): O Mother of the Believers, how did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recite this word: "wa alladhina yu'tuna ma ataw" [Surah al-Mu'minun: 60] ? She asked: Which of the two readings do you like more? I said: One of them is dearer to me than red camels. She asked: Which one is it? I said: "alladhina ya'tuna ma ataw" (those who come with what they came with). Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recite it this way.

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 Abu Yunus that he said: I heard Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reciting this verse: "Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to those to whom they are due, and when you judge between people, to judge with justice.

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 Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a message to me: "Put on your clothes and your weapons, then come to me." So I put on my clothes and weapons and then came to him (peace and blessings be upon him). I found him (peace and blessings be upon him) performing ablution. He (peace and blessings be upon him) looked me over from top to bottom (carefully), then said: "O Amr, I want to send you at the head of an army so that Allah may grant you spoils and keep you safe, and I want to set aside a good portion of wealth for you." I said: O Messenger of Allah, I did not accept Islam for the sake of wealth; I became a Muslim only out of desire for Islam and so that I could be with you (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Amr, how excellent is righteous wealth for a righteous man!" Here he (peace and blessings be upon him) pronounced the word "ni'imma" with a fathah on the nun and a kasrah under the 'ayn.

Muhammad bin Mu'awiyah is not on the condition of this book.

It is narrated from Sa'id bin Jubayr that he said: I asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) about the saying of Allah Almighty: "And We tried you with a severe trial" [Surah Taha: 40] . (In this connection) he narrated a hadith that reaches back to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited: "qala rajulani min alladhina yukhafun" [Surah al-Ma'idah: 23] "Two men from among those who were feared said", and here he (peace and blessings be upon him) read the word "yukhafun" with a dammah on the "ya'".
