Muhammad bin Munkadir says that once I went to the house of Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him). He was wrapped in a single cloth and was performing prayer, although another sheet was lying near him. When he finished the prayer with salam, we asked him about this issue. He replied: I did this so that fools like you may see that I am praying in a single cloth. I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) praying in this manner.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The best row among the rows of men is the first row, and the least among them is the last row, whereas among the rows of women, the least is the first row and the best is the last row. Then he said: O group of women, when the men go into prostration, lower your gaze and do not look at the private parts of men through the openings of their lower garments.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were attending a meal invitation with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at the house of an Ansari woman, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon a man from Paradise will come to you." After a short while, Sayyiduna Siddiq Akbar (Abu Bakr) arrived. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon another man from Paradise will come to you." After a little while, Sayyiduna Umar arrived. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) again said: "Soon another man from Paradise will come to you," and he said: "O Allah, if You will, let the one who comes be Ali." Accordingly, Sayyiduna Ali came. Then food was brought, which we ate. Then we stood up for the Zuhr prayer, and none of us performed ablution. After the prayer, the remaining food was brought. Then we stood up for the Asr prayer, and none of us even touched water.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we set out with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reciting the Talbiyah for Hajj. When we reached Makkah Mukarramah, we performed the Tawaf of the Ka'bah, performed Sa'i between Safa and Marwah, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever does not have a sacrificial animal should come out of Ihram. So after that, we went to our wives, wore stitched clothes, and applied perfume. On the eighth of Dhul-Hijjah, we put on the Ihram for Hajj. During this time, Sayyiduna Suraqah bin Malik also came and said, "O Messenger of Allah, is the command for 'Umrah only for this year or forever?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is forever.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If I remain alive, then insha’Allah I will strictly forbid people from naming (their children) Barakah, Yasaar, and Nafi’.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked Ibn Sayyad, "O Ibn Sayyad, what do you see?" He said, "I see a throne upon water, around which are snakes." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "That is the throne of Iblis."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me for some task of his. I went, and when I returned after completing the task, I greeted the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with salam, but he did not reply. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, I said: O Messenger of Allah! I greeted you with salam, but you did not reply. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I was performing prayer at that time. At that time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was on his mount and was not facing the qiblah.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you go to sleep at night, close the doors, cover the vessels, extinguish the lamps, and tie the mouths of the water skins, because Satan cannot open a closed door, cannot remove a cover, and cannot untie a knot. And sometimes a mouse becomes the cause of burning down the whole house.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade eating the meat of sacrifice after three days. Later, he said: Now eat it, take it as provision for the journey, and store it.
