It is narrated from Hanash al-Kinani that he said: I heard Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him), while holding on to the door of the Ka'bah, say: "Whoever knows me, knows me; and whoever does not know me, then (let him know that) I am Abu Dharr. I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Behold! The likeness of my household among you is like the ark of Nuh (peace be upon him): whoever boards it is saved, and whoever stays behind from it perishes.'" This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

The two Shaykhs agreed on the soundness of this chain and used it as evidence, but they did not record it in this place; with this same chain they recorded only the story of Abu Turab.

It is narrated from Hanash bin al-Mu'tamir that he said: I heard Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him), while holding on to the door-posts of the Ka'bah, say: "Whoever recognizes me, recognizes me; and whoever does not recognize me, then I am Abu Dharr al-Ghifari. I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'The likeness of my household among you is like the ark of Nuh (peace be upon him) among his people: whoever boarded it was saved, and whoever stayed behind from it drowned; and (their likeness) is like the Gate of Hittah for the Children of Israel.'"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "An angel descended from the heaven and asked Allah's permission to greet me with salam; he had never descended before. He gave me the glad tidings that Fatimah is the leader of the women of the people of Paradise."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "An angel descended from the heaven and asked Allah's permission to greet me with salam; he had never descended before.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) informed me: "Indeed, the first to enter Paradise will be I, Fatimah, Hasan and Husayn." I said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and those who love us? He said: "They will be behind you (following in your footsteps)." 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 Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us and placed his blessed foot between me and Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), then taught us what we should say when we lie down in bed. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Fatimah, when the two of you come to your bed, say Subhan Allah 33 times, Alhamdu lillah 33 times and Allahu Akbar 34 times." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah, I have never left these words since. A man who had some resentment against Sayyiduna Ali asked: Not even on the night of Siffin? He replied: Yes, not even on the night of Siffin did I leave these glorifications. 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 Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), and I was with him (peace and blessings be upon him). Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) took off a gold chain (necklace) from her neck and said: This was given to me as a gift by Abu Hasan (Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Fatimah, would it please you that people should say that the daughter of Muhammad has a chain of fire in her hand?!" Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) went out without sitting down. So Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) at once sold that chain, bought a slave with its price and set him free. When this reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "All praise is for Allah, who has saved Fatimah from the Fire." 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 Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Fatimah guarded her chastity so completely that Allah Almighty has forbidden the Fire to her offspring."

Sayyiduna Salih (peace be upon him) will be raised on his she-camel, and I will be raised on al-Buraq, whose each stride falls where its sight ends, and Fatimah will ride ahead of me." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.
