It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man from the Ansar accepted Islam, then he apostatized and joined the polytheists. Then he felt remorse and sent a message to his people to ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): Is there any way of repentance for me? Then these verses were revealed, from "How shall Allah guide a people who disbelieved after their belief and had witnessed that the Messenger is true and clear proofs had come to them" to "except those who repent after that and make amends; for indeed Allah is Forgiving, Merciful" [Surah Al Imran: 86 - 89] . The narrator said: The people of his tribe came to him, and he accepted Islam again. 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 Furat bin Hayyan (may Allah be pleased with him). He (Furat bin Hayyan) was a spy for Abu Sufyan and an ally (of the polytheists), and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had ordered that he be killed. He passed by a gathering of the Ansar and said: I am a Muslim. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Among you are men whom we entrust to their faith, and Furat bin Hayyan is one of them." 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 Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that (in Madinah) there were two tribes, Banu Qurayzah and Banu Nadir, and Banu Nadir had superiority over Banu Qurayzah. So when a man of Banu Qurayzah killed a man of Banu Nadir, he was killed in return for him, but when a man of Banu Nadir killed a man of Banu Qurayzah, instead of retaliation (qisas), his blood money was fixed at a hundred wasqs of dates. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sent, a man of Banu Nadir killed a man of Banu Qurayzah. They demanded: Hand him over to us so that we may kill him in retaliation. The others said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will judge between us and you. They came to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and this verse was revealed: "And if you judge, judge between them with justice; indeed Allah loves those who act justly" [Surah al-Ma'idah: 42] . And justice (qist) is that a life be taken for a life. Then this verse was revealed: "Is it the judgment of (the time of) ignorance they seek?" [Surah al-Ma'idah: 50] This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The blood of a Muslim is not lawful except in three cases: the married adulterer, who shall be stoned; the man who kills someone deliberately, who shall be killed in retaliation; and the man who leaves Islam and wages war against Allah and His Messenger, who shall be killed, or crucified, or exiled from the land." This hadith is sahih on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) put out the eyes of the people of Uraynah only because they had put out the eyes of the Muslim herdsmen.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever kills his slave, we will kill him; and whoever cuts off a limb of his slave (nose, ear and the like), we too will cut off his limb." This hadith is sahih on the condition of Imam Bukhari, 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: "Whoever kills his slave, we will kill him; and whoever cuts off a limb of his slave, we will cut off his limb." Imam al-Hakim says: I fear that Uthman bin al-Haytham intended by this chain the same narration that Yazid bin Harun narrated. And Allah knows best.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a slave-girl came to Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: My master accused me and made me sit on fire until my private parts were burned. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: Did anyone see this (the thing he accused you of) on you? She said: No. He asked: Did you confess any crime before him? She said: No. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered: Bring him to me. When the man came, he said: Do you punish with a punishment like the punishment of Allah?! He said: O Commander of the Faithful, I suspected her conduct. He asked: Did you see her do anything? He said: No. He asked: Did she confess? He said: No. Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By the One in whose Hand is my soul! Had I not heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "A slave shall not be given retaliation against his master, nor a child against his father," I would certainly have taken retaliation from you for this slave-girl. Then he had him stand before everyone and had him given a hundred lashes, and he said to the slave-girl: Go, you are free for the sake of Allah, and you are the freedwoman (mawlah) of Allah and His Messenger. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
