It is narrated from Sayyiduna Talhah bin Ubaidullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man from among the people of Najd came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), his hair was disheveled, and his voice was humming but his words were not understood, until he came close to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). It was seen that he was asking about Islam, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "There are five prayers (obligatory) in the day and night." He said: Is there any prayer obligatory upon me besides these (five)? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "No, except that you offer voluntary prayers of your own accord." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "And the fasts of Ramadan (are obligatory)." He said: Are there any other fasts obligatory upon me besides these? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "No, except that you keep voluntary fasts of your own accord." And the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) mentioned Zakat, he asked: Is there anything else obligatory upon me besides this (Zakat)? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "No, except that you give voluntary charity of your own accord." Then that man turned away saying: By Allah! I will neither add to these nor decrease from them. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "If he has spoken the truth, he has succeeded."

And with the same chain (it is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her), she said: Whenever the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was given a choice between two matters, he would choose the easier of the two, as long as it was not sinful (unlawful). But if it was a sinful matter, he would be the farthest from it. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, never took revenge for himself from anyone, except when the sanctities of Allah were violated, in which case he would take revenge for the sake of Allah.

It is narrated from Salim bin Abdullah (bin Umar, may Allah have mercy on him) that Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Abi Bakr as-Siddiq, may Allah have mercy on him, informed Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, that the wife of the Prophet, Lady Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, stated that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Have you not seen, do you not know that when your people, the Quraysh of Mecca, rebuilt the Ka'bah, they made it smaller than the foundations of Ibrahim, peace be upon him?" Lady Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said: I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Why do you not return it to the foundations of Ibrahim, peace be upon him?" He, peace and blessings be upon him, replied: "If your people had not only recently left disbelief and become Muslim, I would have done so." Upon hearing this, Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, said: If Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, heard this hadith from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, then I think that the reason the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, did not touch the two corners (walls) of the Hijr (Hatim) during tawaf was only because the House of Allah was not built upon the foundations of Ibrahim, peace be upon him.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that two men came from the east and delivered a sermon. People were amazed at their speech, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Some speech (sermons and talks) is magic."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered to trim the moustaches and let the beards grow.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "If a man becomes insolvent (bankrupt) and another person finds his own property with him in its original form (exactly as it was), then he has more right to that property than others."

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) forbade (two types of transactions): muzabanah and muhaqalah. Muzabanah is when fresh dates on the trees are bought in exchange for dried dates, and muhaqalah is when land is leased out in exchange for a specified amount of wheat.

It is narrated from Imran al-Ansari that I was under a tree on the way to Mecca when Abdullah ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) turned towards me and asked: Who made you stop under this tall tree? I said: I stopped here for its shade. He asked: Is there any other reason besides this? I said: No, nothing else made me stop here. Then Abdullah ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you reach between the two mountains of Mina—he (peace be upon him) pointed towards the east—there is a valley there which is called Surr, in it there is a tree under which seventy prophets were born (or received prophethood). Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) said: By Surr it is meant that at the time of their birth, their umbilical cords were cut.

And with the same chain of narration, it is narrated from (Sayyidah Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her) that the most beloved deed to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was that which a person performed consistently (with continuity).
