Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) making this supplication: «اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِلْأَنْصَارِ، وَالْأَزْوَاجِ الْأَنْصَارِ، وَلِذَرَارِيِّهِمْ، وَذَرَارِيِّ ذَرَارِيِّهِمْ» "O Allah! Forgive the Ansar, and their wives, and their children, and the children of their children."

Sayyiduna Abu Sa‘id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am leaving among you two things, one greater than the other: one is the Book of Allah, which is Allah’s long rope stretched from the sky to the earth, and the other is my family, my household. These two will never separate until they meet me at the Pond."

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him, says: The statement of Allah Almighty: «إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا» (Al-Ahzab: 33) was revealed concerning five individuals. (1) The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, (2) Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, (3) Sayyidah Fatimah, may Allah be pleased with her, (4) Sayyiduna Hasan, may Allah be pleased with him, (5) Sayyiduna Husayn, may Allah be pleased with him.

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am leaving among you two things; if you hold fast to them, you will never go astray. One is the Book of Allah and the other is my family, and these two will never be separated until they come to me at the Pond."

Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The example of my Ahl al-Bayt among you is like the Ark of Noah; whoever boarded it was saved, and whoever remained behind was destroyed, and like the gate of Hittah among the Children of Israel."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would frequently remember Allah and speak very little of idle talk. He would perform long prayers and deliver short sermons, and he did not dislike walking with widows and the poor, and he would fulfill their needs.

Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Imam and ruler will be from the Quraysh; among them, the righteous will rule over the righteous and the wicked over the wicked, and everyone has a right. Give the rightful person his due, even if a black Abyssinian slave with a mutilated ear is appointed as your leader, listen to him and obey him as long as you are not commanded to do something against your Islam. If someone is given the choice between his Islam and having his neck struck, he should stretch out his neck; may his mother lose him, for after losing his Islam, neither his worldly life nor his Hereafter will remain."

Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The people of knowledge from the family of Muhammad (peace be upon him) know, and Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) also knows; ask her about this, that the companions of the black man with breasts are cursed on the tongue of the Prophet (peace be upon him).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I used to graze the goats of the family of Abi Mu’it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came, and with him was Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him). They said:“Boy! Do you have any milk?”I said: Yes! But I am entrusted (with these goats). Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Do you have any goat with which a male goat has not mated? I said: Yes! A goat without udders. They said: Peace be upon you. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed his hand over the place of its udders, and though it had no udders, suddenly milk came into its udders and they became full. So I brought a hollowed-out stone to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he milked it into that, then gave Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) to drink, and gave me to drink as well. Then he said to the udders:“Shrink.”So they shrank as they were before. When I saw this from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I said: Teach me this as well. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed his hand over my head and said:“May Allah bless you, you are a learned boy.”So I became Muslim and came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and we were with him at Hira, and Surah Mursalat was revealed, so I took it, it was fresh from the mouth of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Then I memorized seventy surahs from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the rest of the Qur’an I took from the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

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: "The people of Yemen have come to you; they are very soft-hearted. Faith is from Yemen, and wisdom is from Yemen, and jurisprudence is also from Yemen."
