Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna ‘Ala’ Hadhrami (may Allah be pleased with him) towards Bahrain, I also went after him. I saw three qualities in him. I do not know which of these qualities is dearest to me. When we reached the shore of the sea, he said: Enter by reciting Bismillah. We recited Bismillah and entered, and we crossed the sea. Only the lower socks of our camels got wet from the water. When we returned, we came to a dry land. There was no water there. So we complained to him about this, and he started to pray. Then everyone prayed two rak‘ahs and made supplication, and suddenly a cloud appeared like a shield, then it spread its sides, so we drank from it and gave water to the camels. Then when he passed away, we buried him in the sand. When we were about to leave from there, we said,“Let no wild animal eat him.”When we returned there, we did not find him there.

Sayyiduna Abi Aziz bin Umair (may Allah be pleased with him) (who was the nephew of Sayyiduna Mus'ab bin Umair, may Allah be pleased with him) says: I was among the prisoners of war on the day of Badr, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed the people to treat the prisoners of war well. I was with a group of the Ansar, so when they would present their morning or evening meal, they would eat dates themselves and give me bread to eat, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had commanded them to treat us well.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Two men will not be together in Hell; one of them is the one who harms the other, and one is the Muslim who killed a disbeliever and then remained steadfast as a Muslim. And near Allah, two things cannot be gathered in the belly of a believer: the dust from the path of Allah and the steam of Hell. And in the heart of a believer, faith and envy cannot be gathered together."

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), the uncle of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), was guarding him when this verse was revealed:“O Messenger! Convey what has been sent down to you from your Lord; and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And Allah will protect you from the people.”(Al-Ma'idah: 67) After the revelation of this verse, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) abandoned the practice of keeping a guard.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever frees a captive from the hands of the enemy, then that captive is me."

Mus'ab bin Sa'id narrates from his father: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever is killed while protecting his wealth is a martyr."

Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would send a military expedition, he would say: "Fight in the name of Allah, and fight in the way of Allah, fight against the one who disbelieves in Allah. Do not be treacherous, do not deceive, do not mutilate, and do not kill any child or elderly person."

Ata bin Abi Rabah says: I asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both): Were you present with the Prophet (peace be upon him) at the Pledge of Ridwan? He said: Yes! I asked: What were you wearing? He said: A cotton shirt, a padded coat, a sheet, and a sword. And I saw Nu'man bin Muqarrin standing over the head of the Prophet (peace be upon him). The branches of the tree were rising above the head of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and people were pledging allegiance to the Prophet (peace be upon him).

Thabit Banani says: Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned seventy men of the Ansar, that when night would fall, they would gather at a sign in Madinah. There they would spend the night and recite the Qur'an. When morning came, whoever had the strength would collect some firewood and drink cold water, and whoever had the means would bring a goat and prepare it, and it would be hung from the chamber of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When Khubaib faced hardship, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had sent them. Among them was my maternal uncle, Haram bin Milhan. So they came to the tribe of Banu Sulaym. Haram said to their leader: "Should I not tell them that we are not those people, so they may uncover our faces?" He said: "Yes, tell them." So he went to them and spoke, but a man came forward with a spear and thrust it into him. When Haram felt the blow of the spear in his stomach, he said: "By the Lord of the Ka'bah! I have succeeded." Then they killed all of them, so that none remained to bring news. I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) grieve over this expedition as I had never seen him grieve before. Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), whenever he prayed the morning prayer, he would raise his hands and supplicate against them. After that, Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to me and said: "Are you interested in the killer of Haram?" He said: "What about him? May Allah do such and such to him." Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Do not say that, he has become a Muslim."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa Aslami, may Allah be pleased with him, says: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, attacked the people of Khaybar while they were unaware, so they said: By Allah! This is Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, and his army. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Allah is the Greatest! Khaybar is destroyed. Whenever we descend into the courtyard of a people, the morning of those who have been warned becomes evil."
