Ubaidullah bin Abdullah says that once he went to visit Sayyiduna Abu Talha Ansari when he was ill, and Sayyiduna Sahl bin Hunaif was also present there. During this time, Sayyiduna Abu Talha called a man who, on his order, removed the mat that was spread under him. Sayyiduna Sahl asked the reason for this, so he replied that there were pictures on it, and what the Prophet (peace be upon him) has said about this, you also know. Sayyiduna Sahl said that the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not make an exception for designs made on clothes. He replied: Why not, but I find comfort in it for myself.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out towards Makkah Mukarramah with his companions. When they reached Sha'b Kharrar in Juhfah, Sayyiduna Sahl bin Hunaif went out with the intention of bathing. He was the owner of a very handsome and beautiful body. During the bath, 'Amir bin Rabi'ah's gaze fell upon his body and he said, "I have never seen such beautiful skin till today." No sooner had he said this than Sayyiduna Sahl fell down. A man came to the court of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! Do something for Sahl, by Allah, he cannot even lift his head nor is he conscious." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Whom do you blame for this?" The people informed that 'Amir bin Rabi'ah had looked at him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called 'Amir and rebuked him severely and said, "Why does one of you kill his brother? When he sees something astonishing, why does he not pray for blessing for him?" Then he instructed him to wash his limbs: he washed his face, hands, elbows, knees, parts of his feet, and from inside his lower garment in a bowl. Then he ordered that this water be poured over Sahl, such that a man pours the water over his head and pours it on his back from behind, and then pours the whole bowl over him. When this was done accordingly, Sayyiduna Sahl began to walk with the people as if he had never had any ailment at all.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever comes to the Quba Mosque and offers two rak‘ahs there, it is equal to performing one ‘Umrah.

The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

Ali ibn Bahr narrated to us, he said: Hatim narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Sulayman al-Karmani narrated to us, and he mentioned its meaning.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent him and said: "You are my envoy to the people of Makkah. Go and convey this message to them: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has sent me to you, he sends you greetings of peace, and he commands you with three things: Do not swear by anyone other than Allah; when relieving yourselves, do not face or turn your back to the Qiblah; and do not use bones or dung for istinja (cleaning after relieving oneself)."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If a person witnesses a believer being humiliated in his presence and, despite having the power, does not help him, Allah Almighty will humiliate him before all of creation on the Day of Resurrection.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever supports a warrior in the path of Allah or helps in freeing a slave with a contract of emancipation, Allah will grant him a place under His Throne's shade on the Day when there will be no shade except His.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever supports a mujahid fighting in the way of Allah, or helps in freeing a slave with a contract of emancipation, Allah will grant him a place under the shade of His Throne on the Day when there will be no shade except His.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Talha that once I arrived in Madinah Munawwarah and I had no acquaintances there. So, I came and stayed with a man on a platform called Suffah. That man and I used to divide only one mudd of dates between us daily. One day, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the prayer. After finishing the prayer, one of the people of Suffah said, "O Messenger of Allah! The dates have set our stomachs on fire and rashes have appeared on our bodies." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ascended the pulpit and, delivering a sermon, said: "By Allah, if I had bread and meat with me, I would have fed you that as well. Soon you will receive all these things, so much so that you will have large bowls and slaves, and you will have clothes to wear like those of the Ka'bah." After that, he shared our grief for only eighteen days. Until then, the best thing we had received was these very dates.
