(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا خلف بن خليفة ، حدثنا حفص بن عمر ، عن انس بن مالك ، قال: كنت مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم جالسا في الحلقة، ورجل قائم يصلي، فلما ركع وسجد، فتشهد، ثم قال في دعائه:" اللهم إني اسالك بان لك الحمد، لا إله إلا انت المنان، يا بديع السموات والارض، يا ذا الجلال والإكرام، يا حي يا قيوم، إني اسالك، فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: اتدرون بما دعا الله؟ قال: فقالوا: الله ورسوله اعلم، قال: والذي نفسي بيده، لقد دعا الله باسمه الاعظم، الذي إذا دعي به اجاب، وإذا سئل به اعطى".
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was sitting in a gathering with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and a man stood up and started praying. After bowing and prostrating, when he sat in the Tashahhud, he recited this supplication: (اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ الْمَنَّانُ يَا بَدِيعَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ) "O Allah! I ask You, for all praise is for You alone, there is no deity except You, You are the Most Gracious, the Originator of the heavens and the earth without any precedent, O Possessor of Majesty and Honor, O Ever-Living, O Sustainer, I ask You." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You have supplicated to Allah with His Greatest Name; when He is supplicated by it, He surely answers, and when He is asked by it, He surely gives."

(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا عبد الواحد ، حدثنا المختار بن فلفل ، حدثنا انس بن مالك ، قال: صلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم صلاة، فاقبل علينا بوجهه، فقال:" إني إمامكم، فلا تسبقوني بالركوع، ولا بالسجود، ولا بالقيام، فإني اراكم من بين يدي، ومن خلفي، ثم قال: والذي نفسي بيده، لو رايتم ما رايت، لضحكتم قليلا، ولبكيتم كثيرا، قالوا: يا رسول الله، وما رايت؟ قال: رايت الجنة والنار".
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned towards us after finishing the prayer and said: O people! I am your Imam, so do not go ahead of me in bowing, prostration, standing, sitting, or ending the prayer, because I see you from in front of me as well as from behind me. And by the One in Whose hand is my soul, if you had seen what I have seen, you would laugh little and weep much. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What have you seen? He replied: I have seen Paradise and Hell with my own eyes.

(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا حماد ، حدثنا ثابت ، عن انس بن مالك ، ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم" مرت عليه جنازة، فاثنوا عليها خيرا، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: وجبت، ثم مر عليه بجنازة اخرى، فاثنوا عليها شرا، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: وجبت، ثم قال: انتم شهداء الله في الارض".
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a funeral passed in front of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and someone praised the deceased, and the people praised him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "It has become obligatory." Then another funeral passed, and the people spoke ill of the deceased. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "It has become obligatory." Then he said, "You are Allah's witnesses on the earth."

(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا حماد ، قال: اخبرنا ثابت ، عن انس ،" ان رجلا كان يكتب لرسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فإذا املى عليه: سميعا، يقول: كتبت سميعا بصيرا، قال: دعه، وإذا املى عليه: عليما حكيما، كتب: عليما حليما، قال حماد: نحو ذا، قال: وكان قد قرا البقرة وآل عمران، وكان من قراهما قد قرا قرآنا كثيرا، فذهب فتنصر، فقال: لقد كنت اكتب لمحمد ما شئت، فيقول: دعه، فمات، فدفن، فنبذته الارض مرتين، او ثلاثا"، قال ابو طلحة: ولقد رايته منبوذا فوق الارض.
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that there was a man who used to write for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He had also memorized Surah Al-Baqarah and Aal-e-Imran. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would dictate to him "Sami'an" and he would write "Sami'an Basiran" instead. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say, "Write it like this," but he would say, "I will write as I wish." Similarly, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would dictate "Aleema," he would write "Aleema Hakeema" instead. After some time, that man became an apostate and turned Christian, and began to say, "I used to write whatever I wanted for Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) among you all." When that man died, he was buried, but the earth threw him out. Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says that Hazrat Abu Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) told me that he went to the place where that man had died and found him lying outside.

(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا حماد بن سلمة ، قال: اخبرنا ثابت ، عن انس بن مالك : ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم اعطى ابا سفيان، وعيينة والاقرع، وسهيل بن عمرو في الآخرين يوم حنين، فقالت الانصار: يا رسول الله، سيوفنا تقطر من دمائهم، وهم يذهبون بالمغنم! فبلغ ذلك النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فجمعهم في قبة له حتى فاضت، فقال: افيكم احد من غيركم؟ قالوا: لا، إلا ابن اختنا، قال: ابن اخت القوم منهم، ثم قال: اقلتم كذا وكذا؟ قالوا: نعم، قال: انتم الشعار والناس الدثار، اما ترضون ان يذهب الناس بالشاة والبعير، وتذهبون برسول الله إلى دياركم؟ قالوا: بلى، قال:" الانصار كرشي وعيبتي، لو سلك الناس واديا، وسلكت الانصار شعبا، لسلكت شعبهم، ولولا الهجرة لكنت امرا من الانصار"، وقال حماد: اعطى مائة من الإبل، يسمي كل واحد من هؤلاء.
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of the Battle of Hunayn, when Allah granted the spoils of Banu Hawazin to the Prophet (peace be upon him), and the Prophet (peace be upon him) began giving one hundred camels each to Uyaina, Aqra’, and others, some of the Ansar said, "May Allah forgive the Prophet (peace be upon him); he is giving to the Quraysh and ignoring us, while the drops of blood are still dripping from our swords." When the Prophet (peace be upon him) learned of this, he called the Ansari companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and said, "Are you not pleased that people go away with wealth and property, and you return home with the Messenger of Allah?" They replied, "Why not, O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)!" Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "By Him in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (peace be upon him), if people were to walk in one valley and the Ansar in another, I would choose the valley and mountain pass of the Ansar. The Ansar are my shield, and if there had been no migration, I would have been one of the Ansar."

(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا حماد ، حدثنا ثابت ، عن انس بن مالك ، قال: كنت رديف ابي طلحة يوم خيبر، وقدمي تمس قدم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: فاتيناهم حين بزغت الشمس، وقد اخرجوا مواشيهم وخرجوا بفؤوسهم ومكاتلهم ومرورهم، فقالوا: محمد والخميس، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم:" الله اكبر، خربت خيبر، إنا إذا نزلنا بساحة قوم، فساء صباح المنذرين، قال: فهزمهم الله، قال: ووقعت في سهم دحية جارية جميلة، فاشتراها رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بسبعة ارؤس، ثم دفعها إلى ام سليم تصلحها وتهيئها، وهي صفية ابنة حيي، قال: فجعل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وليمتها التمر، والاقط، والسمن، قال: فحصت الارض افاحيص، قال: وجيء بالانطاع، فوضعت فيها، ثم جيء بالاقط والتمر والسمن، فشبع الناس، قال: وقال الناس: ما ندري اتزوجها، ام اتخذها ام ولد! فقالوا: إن يحجبها فهي امراته، وإن لم يحجبها فهي ام ولد، فلما اراد ان يركب، حجبها حتى قعدت على عجز البعير، فعرفوا انه قد تزوجها، فلما دنوا من المدينة دفع ودفعنا، قال: فعثرت الناقة العضباء، قال: فندر رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وندرت، قال: فقام فسترها، قال: وقد اشرفت النساء، فقلن: ابعد الله اليهودية، فقلت: يا ابا حمزة، اوقع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم؟ قال: إي والله، لقد وقع، وشهدت وليمة زينب بنت جحش، فاشبع الناس خبزا ولحما، وكان يبعثني، فادعو الناس، فلما فرغ قام وتبعته، وتخلف رجلان استانس بهما الحديث، لم يخرجا، فجعل يمر بنسائه، يسلم على كل واحدة: سلام عليكم يا اهل البيت، كيف اصبحتم؟ فيقولون: بخير يا رسول الله، كيف وجدت اهلك؟ فيقول: بخير، فلما رجع ورجعت معه، فلما بلغ الباب إذا هو بالرجلين قد استانس بهما الحديث، فلما راياه قد رجع قاما فخرجا، قال: فوالله ما ادري انا اخبرته، او نزل عليه الوحي بانهما قد خرجا، فرجع ورجعت معه، فلما وضع رجله في اسكفة الباب، ارخى الحجاب بيني وبينه، وانزل الله الحجاب هذه الآيات: لا تدخلوا بيوت النبي إلا ان يؤذن لكم إلى طعام غير ناظرين إناه سورة الاحزاب آية 53 حتى فرغ منها".
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of the Battle of Khaybar, I was riding behind Hazrat Abu Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) and my feet were touching the feet of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When we reached there, the sun had already risen and the people of Khaybar had taken out their cattle and had come out with their axes and mattocks. When they saw us, they said, "Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and his army have come." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said "Allahu Akbar" and declared, "Khaybar is destroyed, destroyed. When we descend into the courtyard of a people, the morning of those who have been warned is the worst." Allah Almighty inflicted defeat upon them.

He further says that Hazrat Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her), who was very beautiful, came into the share of Hazrat Dihyah Kalbi (may Allah be pleased with him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) bought her in exchange for seven persons and, after purchasing her, sent her to Hazrat Umm Sulaim (may Allah be pleased with her) so that she could adorn and prepare her as a bride. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gathered dates, cheese, and ghee for her wedding feast. Halwa was prepared from it and, after spreading a dining cloth, it was placed on it. People ate from it to their fill.

During this, people began to wonder whether the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would marry her or keep her as a slave. But when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made her ride on a mount, arranged a curtain, and seated her behind him, people understood that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had married her.

When they neared Madinah Munawwarah, people, according to their custom, began to dismount by jumping off their mounts. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also began to dismount in the same way, but the she-camel slipped and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fell to the ground, and Hazrat Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) also fell. The other noble wives were watching and said, "May Allah double this Jewess and do such and such to her." Meanwhile, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and arranged a curtain for her, then seated her behind him. I asked, "O Abu Hamzah! Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) really fall?" He replied, "Yes! By Allah, he fell."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I was also present at the wedding feast of Hazrat Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her), and at this wedding feast, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fed the people plenty of bread and meat. All the others ate and left, but two men, after eating, sat there and began to talk. Seeing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself went out of the house. I also came out behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), to pass the time, went to the chambers of his noble wives one by one and greeted them. They would ask, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! How did you find your wife?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would reply, "Very good." Then, when he reached the door of his house, those two were still sitting and talking. When they saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returning, they stood up and left. Now I do not remember whether I informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of their departure or someone else did. In any case, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered his house from there. I also wanted to enter, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) hung a curtain and the verse of hijab was revealed.

(حديث مرفوع) حدثنا عفان ، حدثنا حماد ، حدثنا ثابت ، عن انس بن مالك ، ان اليهود كانت إذا حاضت المراة منهم، اخرجوها من البيت، فلم يؤاكلوها ولم يجامعوها، فسال اصحاب النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم عن ذلك، فانزل الله: ويسالونك عن المحيض قل هو اذى فاعتزلوا النساء في المحيض سورة البقرة آية 222، حتى فرغ من الآية،" فامرهم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ان يصنعوا كل شيء إلا النكاح، قالت اليهود: ما يريد هذا الرجل ان يدع شيئا من امرنا إلا خالفنا فيه، فجاء عباد بن بشر واسيد بن حضير، فقالا: يا رسول الله، إن اليهود قالت كذا وكذا، افلا ننكحهن؟ فتغير وجه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم حتى ظننا انه قد وجد عليهما، فخرجا من عنده هدية من لبن إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فبعث في آثارهما فسقاهما، فظننا انه لم يجد عليهما.
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that among the Jews, when a woman was menstruating, they would neither eat nor drink with her, nor would they stay together in the same house. The noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this, so Allah Almighty revealed this verse: "They ask you about menstruating women. Say: It is a harm, so keep away from women during menstruation and do not approach them until they are purified." After reciting this verse in full, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You may do everything except intercourse." When the Jews learned of this, they said: "This man opposes us in every matter." Then Hazrat Usayd bin Hudair (may Allah be pleased with him) and Abbad bin Bishr (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The Jews are saying such and such things. Should we not even go near our wives? (So that we may completely oppose the Jews.)" Upon hearing this, the color of the blessed face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) changed, and we thought that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was displeased with them. Both of them also left from there, but shortly after, a gift of milk was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called both of them and gave it to them to drink. In this way, they understood that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was not displeased with them.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that all the prayers of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were almost equal in length, and likewise were the prayers of Hazrat Siddiq Akbar (may Allah be pleased with him). However, Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) started making the Fajr prayer longer, and sometimes the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would raise his head from prostration or bowing and would pause for so long between the two that we would begin to think that perhaps the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had forgotten.
