حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ يَحْيَی أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّی بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ح و حَدَّثَنَاه قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ الْمُعَلَّی بْنِ زِيَادٍ رَدَّهُ إِلَی مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ رَدَّهُ إِلَی مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ رَدَّهُ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ الْعِبَادَةُ فِي الْهَرْجِ کَهِجْرَةٍ إِلَيَّ و حَدَّثَنِيهِ

Ma'qil b. Yasar reported Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) as saying: Worshiping during the period of widespread turmoil is like emigration towards me.

مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ← مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ ← مُعَلَّی بْنِ زِيَادٍ ← حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ← يَحْيَی بْنُ يَحْيَی

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي الدَّرَاوَرْدِيَّ عَنْ الْعَلَائِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الدُّنْيَا سِجْنُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَجَنَّةُ الْکَافِرِ

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) as saying: The world is a prison-house for a believer and Paradise for a non-believer.

أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، ← أَبِيهِ ← الْعَلَائُ ← عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ -يَعْنِي الدَّرَاوَرْدِيَّ- ← قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنِ قَعْنَبٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بِلَالٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِالسُّوقِ دَاخِلًا مِنْ بَعْضِ الْعَالِيَةِ وَالنَّاسُ کَنَفَتَهُ فَمَرَّ بِجَدْيٍ أَسَکَّ مَيِّتٍ فَتَنَاوَلَهُ فَأَخَذَ بِأُذُنِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيُّکُمْ يُحِبُّ أَنَّ هَذَا لَهُ بِدِرْهَمٍ فَقَالُوا مَا نُحِبُّ أَنَّهُ لَنَا بِشَيْئٍ وَمَا نَصْنَعُ بِهِ قَالَ أَتُحِبُّونَ أَنَّهُ لَکُمْ قَالُوا وَاللَّهِ لَوْ کَانَ حَيًّا کَانَ عَيْبًا فِيهِ لِأَنَّهُ أَسَکُّ فَکَيْفَ وَهُوَ مَيِّتٌ فَقَالَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَلدُّنْيَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَی اللَّهِ مِنْ هَذَا عَلَيْکُمْ

Jabir b. Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) happened to walk through the bazar coming from the side of 'Aliya and the people were on both his sides. There he found a dead lamb with very short ears. He took hold of his ear and said: Who amongst you would like to have this for a dirham? They said: We do not like to have it even for less than that as it is of no use to us. He said: Do you wish to have it (free of any cost)? They said: By Allah, even if it were alive (we would not have liked to possess that), for there is defect in it as its ear is very short; now it is dead also. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: By Allah, this world is more insignificant in the eye of Allah than it (this dead lamb) is in your eye.

`Amr b. `Auf, who was an ally of Banu `Amir b. Luwayy (and he was one amongst them) who participated in Badr along with Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) reported that, Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) sent Abu `Ubaida b. Al-Jarrah to Bahrain for collecting Jizya and Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) had made a truce with the people of Bahrain and had appointed `Ala' b. Hadrami and Abu `Ubaida (for this purpose). They came with wealth from Bahrain and the Ansar heard about the arrival of Abu `Ubaida and they had observed the dawn prayer along with Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). When Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) had finished the prayer, they (the Ansar) came before him and Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) smiled as he saw them and then said: I think you have heard about the arrival of Abu `Ubaida with goods from Bahrain. They said: Allah's Messenger, yes, it is so. Thereupon he said: Be happy and be hopeful of that which gives you delight. By Allah, it is not the poverty about which I fear in regard to you but I am afraid in your case that (the worldly) riches way be given to you as were given to those who had gone before you and you begin to vie with one another for them as they vied for them, and these may destroy you as these destroyed them.

Umair al-'Adawi reported: 'Utba b. Ghazwan delivered us a sermon and he praised Allah and lauded Him, then said: Now coming to the point, verily the world has been given the news of its end and that too quite early. Nothing would be left out of it but only water left in the utensil which its owner leaves, and you are going to shift to an abode which knows no end, and you should shift with the good before you, for we have been told that a stone would be thrown at one side of the Hell and it would go down even for seventy years but would not be able to reach its bottom. By Allah, it would be fully packed. Do you find it something strange, and it has been mentioned that there yawns a distance which one would be able to cover in forty years from one end to another of Paradise, and a day would come when it would be fully packed and you must be knowing that I was the seventh amongst seven who had been with Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and we had nothing to eat but the leaves of the tree until the corners of the mouth were injured. We found a sheet which we tore in two and divided between myself and Sa'd b. Malik. I made the lower garment with halt of it and so did Sa'd make the lower garment with half of it and today there is none amongst us who has not become the governor of a city from amongst the cities (of the Islamic Commonwealth) and I seek refuge with Allah that I should consider myself great whereas I am insignificant in the eye of Allah. Prophethood does not remain for ever and its impact fades with the result that it changes eventually into kingship, and you would soon come to know and experience those rulers who would come after us and see (how far they are from religion).

Abu Huraira reported: By Him in Whose Hand is my life and Ibn 'Abbad also said: By One in Whose hand is the life of Abu Huraira, Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) could not afford to provide adequate food to his family which could (fill their bellies) with bread and wheat for three days successively until he left the world.

Abu Hazim reported: I saw Abu Huraira point with his finger many a time and saying: By One in Whose Hand is the life of Abu Huraira, Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) could not eat to his fill and provide his family bread of wheat beyond three days successively until he left the world.

Simak b. Barb reported: I heard Nu'man deliver an address in which he said that (Hadrat) Umar made a mention of what had fallen to the lot of people out of the material world and he said: I saw Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) spend the whole day being upset because of hunger and he could not get even an interior quality of dates with which he could fill his belly.

I said to him: My uncle, if you get the cloak of your servant and you give him your two clothes, or take his two clothes of Ma'afir and give him your cloak, then there would be one dress for you and one for him. He wiped my head and said: O Allah, bless the son of my brother. O, son of my brother, these two very eyes of mine saw and these two ears of mine listened to and this heart of mine retained this, and he pointed towards the heart that Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: Feed them (the servants) and clothe them (the servants) what you wear, and if I give him the goods of the world, it is easy for me than this that he should take my virtues on the Day of Resurrection.

Ibn 'Abbas said: This verse was revealed in Mecca: And they who call not upon another god with Allah and slay not the soul which Allah has forbidden except in the cause of justice up to the word Muhdana (abased). Thereupon the polytheists said: Islam is of no avail to us for we have made peer with Allah and we killed the soul which Allah had forbidden to do and we committed debauchery, and it was (on this occasion) that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed this verse: Except him who repents and believes and does good deeds up to the end Ibn 'Abbis says: He who enters the fold of Islam and understands its command and then kills the soul there is no repentance for him.

Sa'id b. Jubair reported: I said to Ibn Abbas: Will the repentance of that person be accepted who kills a believer intentionally? He said: No. I recited to him this verse of Sura al-Furqan (xix.): And those who call not upon another god with Allah and slay not the soul which Allah has forbidden except in the cause of justice to the end of the verse. He said: This is a Meccan verse which has been abrogated by a verse revealed at Medina: He who slays a believer intentionally, for him is the requital of Hell-Fire where he would abide for ever, and in the narration of Ibn Hisham (the words are): I recited to him this verse of Sura al-Furqan: Except one who made repentance.

سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ← الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ أَبِي بَزَّةَ ← ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، ← يَحْيَی وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ ← عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ ← عَبْدُ اللہِ بْنُ ھَاشِمٍ،

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَأَبُو کُرَيْبٍ جَمِيعًا عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي کُرَيْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ کَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ ابْنُ سَلُولَ يَقُولُ لِجَارِيَةٍ لَهُ اذْهَبِي فَابْغِينَا شَيْئًا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلَا تُکْرِهُوا فَتَيَاتِکُمْ عَلَی الْبِغَائِ إِنْ أَرَدْنَ تَحَصُّنًا لِتَبْتَغُوا عَرَضَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَنْ يُکْرِهْهُنَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ مِنْ بَعْدِ إِکْرَاهِهِنَّ لَهُنَّ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ

Jabir reported that 'Abdullah b. Ubayy b. Salul used to say to his slave-girl: Go and fetch something for us by committing prostitution. It was in this connection that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed this verse: And compel not your slave-girls to prostitution when they desire to keep chaste in order to seek the frail goods of this world's life, and whoever compels them, then surely after their compulsion Allah is Forgiving, Merciful (xxiv. 33).

کَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ ابْنُ سَلُولَ ← جَابِرٍ ← أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ← الْاَعْمَشِ ← أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ← أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي كُرَيْبٍ ← أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَأَبُو کُرَيْبٍ جَمِيعًا

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أُولَئِکَ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ يَبْتَغُونَ إِلَی رَبِّهِمْ الْوَسِيلَةَ أَيُّهُمْ أَقْرَبُ قَالَ کَانَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ الْجِنِّ أَسْلَمُوا وَکَانُوا يُعْبَدُونَ فَبَقِيَ الَّذِينَ کَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَ عَلَی عِبَادَتِهِمْ وَقَدْ أَسْلَمَ النَّفَرُ مِنْ الْجِنِّ

Abdullah b. Mas'ud reported in connection with the words of Allah, the Exalted and Glorious: Those to whom they call upon, themselves seek the means or access to their Lord as to whoever of them becomes nearest (xvii. 57) that it related to a party of Jinn who were being worshipped and they embraced Islam but those who worshipped them kept on worshipping them (though the Jinn whom the misguided people worshipped had become Muslims). It was then that this verse was revealed.

أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ ← إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ← الْاَعْمَشِ ← عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، ← أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ،

حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أُولَئِکَ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ يَبْتَغُونَ إِلَی رَبِّهِمْ الْوَسِيلَةَ قَالَ کَانَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ الْإِنْسِ يَعْبُدُونَ نَفَرًا مِنْ الْجِنِّ فَأَسْلَمَ النَّفَرُ مِنْ الْجِنِّ وَاسْتَمْسَکَ الْإِنْسُ بِعِبَادَتِهِمْ فَنَزَلَتْ أُولَئِکَ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ يَبْتَغُونَ إِلَی رَبِّهِمْ الْوَسِيلَةَ

Abdullah b. Mas'ud reported in connection with the verse: Those whom they call upon, themselves seek the means of access to their Lord, that it related to a group of people who worshipped a party amongst the Jinn. The group from amongst the Jinn embraced Islam, but the people kept worshipping them as they did before, and it was (on this occasion) that the verse was revealed: Those whom they call upon, themselves seek the means of access to their Lord. This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Sulaiman with the same chain of transmitters.

عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أُولَئِکَ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ يَبْتَغُونَ إِلَی رَبِّهِمْ الْوَسِيلَةَ ← أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ ← إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ← الْاَعْمَشِ ← سُفْيَانَ، ← عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، ← أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ

حدثني حدثني عبد الله بن مطيع ، حدثنا هشيم ، عن ابي بشر ، عن سعيد بن جبير ، قال: قلت: لابن عباس " سورة التوبة، قال: آلتوبة، قال: بل هي الفاضحة ما زالت تنزل ومنهم ومنهم حتى ظنوا ان لا يبقى منا احد إلا ذكر فيها، قال: قلت: سورة الانفال، قال: تلك سورة بدر، قال: قلت: فالحشر قال: نزلت في بني النضير ".

Sa'id b. Jubair reported: I said to Ibn 'Abbas about Sura Tauba, whereupon he said: As for Sura Tauba, it is meant to humiliate (the non-believers and the hypocrites). There is constantly revealed in it (the pronoun) minhum (of them) and minhom (of them, i. e. such is the condition of some of them) till they (the Muslims) thought that none would be left unmentioned out of them who would not be blamed (for one fault or the other). I again said: What about Sura Anfal? He said: It pertains to the Battle of Badr. I again asked him about Sura al-Hashr. He said: It was revealed in connection with (the tribe) of Banu Nadir.

Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) had said: Richness does not lie in the abundance of (worldly) goods but richness is the richness of the soul (heart, self).

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) stood up and addressed the people thus: O people, by Allah, I do not entertain fear about you in regard to anything else than that which Allah would bring forth for you in the form of adornment of the world. A person said: Messenger of Allah, does good produce evil? The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) remained silent for a while and he then said: What did you say? He replied: Messenger of Allah, I said: Does good produce evil? The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said to him: The good does not produce but good. but among the plants the spring rain produces There some which kill with a tremour or nearly kill all but the animal which feeds on vegetation. It eats and when its flanks are distended, it faces the can. then when it has donged or urinated and chewed it returns and eats. He who accepts wealth rightly, Allah confers blessing on it for him. and he who takes wealth without any right, he is like one who eats and is not satisfied.

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) had said: The most dreadful thing I fear in your case is what Allah brings forth for you in the form of the adornment of the world. They (the Prophet's Companions) said: Messenger of Allah, what is the adornment of the world? He said: Blessings (the natural resources) of the earth. They (again) said: Messenger of Allah, does good produce evil? He said: No, only good comes out of good. No, only good comes out of good. No. only good comes out of good. All that which the spring rain helps to grow kills or is about to kill but (the animal) which feeds on vegetation. It eats and when its flanks are distended, it faces the sun, it chews the cud, it has dunged and urinated. it returns and eats. This wealth is green and sweet, and he who accepts it and applies it rightly, finds it a good help, but he who takes it wrongfully is like one who eats without being satisfied.

Abdullah. Ibn 'Abbas reported: A person from the Ansar who was amongst the Companions of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) reported to me: As we were sitting during the night with Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), a meteor shot gave a dazzling light. Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: What did you say in the pre-Islamic days when there was such a shot (of meteor)? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best (the actual position), but we, however, used to say that that very night a great man had been born and a great man had died, whereupon Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: (These meteors) are shot neither at the death of anyone nor on the birth of anyone. Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, issues Command when He decides to do a thing. Then (the Angels) supporting the Throne sing His glory, then sing the dwellers of heaven who are near to them until this glory of God reaches them who are in the heaven of this world. Then those who are near the supporters of the Throne ask these supporters of the Throne: What your Lord has said? And they accordingly inform them what He says. Then the dwellers of heaven seek information from them until this information reaches the heaven of the world. In this process of transmission (the jinn snatches) what he manages to overhear and he carries it to his friends. And when the Angels see the jinn they attack them with meteors. If they narrate only which they manage to snatch that is correct but they alloy it with lies and make additions to it.
