It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard a man reciting the Qur'an who made a grammatical error (lahn) in his recitation, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Guide your brother." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Recite the Qur'an correctly, with its proper vowel endings and grammar, and seek out its rare (unusual and uncommon) words and meanings." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration according to the view of a group of our imams, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

Hakim bin Mu'awiyah bin Haydah narrates from his father that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You will be brought on the Day of Resurrection with fidam (cloth coverings or stoppers) placed over your mouths, and the first part of a human being that will speak will be his thigh and his palm." This hadith is well known through the narration of Bahz bin Hakim from his father. Al-Jurayri has also corroborated him and narrated it from Hakim bin Mu'awiyah, by which the hadith is established as sahih, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

Sayyiduna Hakim bin Mu'awiyah narrates from his father, who said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You will all be gathered here - and he (peace and blessings be upon him) pointed with his hand towards Syria - on foot, riding, and on your faces. You will be presented before Allah with gags (fidam: seals or obstructions) over your mouths, and the first of the limbs of any of you to speak out will be his thigh." And the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: "And you were not concealing yourselves, lest your hearing, your eyes and your skins should testify against you." [Surah Fussilat: 22]

Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked about this saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: "Our Lord, show us those two among the jinn and mankind who led us astray."

This hadith is sahih (authentic) in its chain of narration, and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Aswad bin Hilal that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) asked (the Companions): What do you say about these sayings of Allah Almighty: "Indeed, those who said, 'Our Lord is Allah,' and then remained upright" [Surah Fussilat: 30] and "Those who believed and did not mix their faith with injustice" [Surah al-An'am: 82] ? They replied: "Those who said, 'Our Lord is Allah,' and then remained upright" refers to the people who said, 'Our Lord is Allah,' and then did not turn towards any (sin); and "did not mix their faith with injustice" means that they did not mix their faith with any wrongdoing. At this Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "You have not understood them in the sense that is intended. 'And then remained upright' means that they did not turn towards any god other than Allah, and 'did not mix their faith with injustice' means that they did not mix their faith with shirk (associating partners with Allah)." This hadith is sahih (authentic) in its chain of narration, and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sulayman bin Surad (may Allah be pleased with him) that two men reviled each other near the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the anger of one of them became intense. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I know a word which, if he were to say it, his anger would leave him. (That word is): 'A'udhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir-rajim' (I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed)." That man said (in anger): Do you think I am mad? So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: "And if an evil suggestion from Satan provokes you, then seek refuge in Allah." [Surah Fussilat: 36] This hadith is sahih (authentic) in its chain of narration.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he used to prostrate at the latter of the two verses of Surah Ha Mim al-Sajdah, whereas Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) used to prostrate at the first of them. This hadith is sahih (authentic) in its chain of narration, and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recited these verses: "Indeed, those who disbelieved in the Reminder (the Qur'an) when it came to them - and indeed it is a mighty Book; falsehood cannot approach it from before it or from behind it; it is a revelation from One who is All-Wise, Praiseworthy (Allah)." [Surah Fussilat: 41, 42] Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You will not return to Allah with anything more beloved to Him than something that came out from Him," meaning the Noble Qur'an. (That is, nothing is more beloved and more excellent in the sight of Allah Almighty than the Qur'an, because it was revealed from Allah.) This hadith is sahih (authentic) in its chain of narration, and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Farwah bin Nawfal al-Ashja'i that he said: I was a neighbour of Sayyiduna Khabbab bin al-Aratt (may Allah be pleased with him).

Draw near to Allah as much as you can, for you cannot draw near to Him through anything more beloved to Him than His Speech (the Qur'an). This hadith is sahih (authentic) in its chain of narration, and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
