It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that the Prophet (PBUH) used to say in his du'a’: "O Lord, help me and do not help others against me, support me and do not support others against me, plan for me and do not plan against me, guide me and make guidance easy for me, and help me against those who wrong me. O Lord, make me grateful to You, make me remember You much, make me fearful of You, obedient to You, humble before You and turning to You. O Lord, accept my repentance and wash away my sins, answer my supplication, make my proof firm, guide my heart, make my tongue speak the truth, and remove resentment from my heart.

It was narrated that Abu Jamrah said: I heard Ibn 'Abbas say: The delegation of ' Abdul-Qais came to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "Who is this delegation?" - or: "Who are these people?" - They said: Rabee'ah. He said: "Welcome to the delegation - or: to the people - who were neither humiliated nor do they have any regrets." They said: O Messenger of Allah, we have come to you from a far-off land, and between us and youthere is this tribe of the kuffar of Mudar. We can only come to you during a sacred month, so give us a clear command by which we may enter Paradise and which we can tell to those whom we have left behind. And they asked him about drinks. He enjoined four things upon them and forbade them to do four. He enjoined them to believe in Allah alone and said, "Do you know what believing in Allah alone means?" They said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: "(It means) testifying that there is no god but Allah alone and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), establishing regular prayer, paying zakah, fasting Ramadan and giving one-fifth ( khumus ) of the war booty." And he forbade them to use gourds, green glazed pitchers, hollowed-out stumps or varnished jars - perhaps he said [another type of] varnished jars - and he said: "Remember this and tell it to those whom you have left behind."

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: When this verse was revealed: "... and whether you disclose what is in your own selves or conceal it, Allah will call you to account for it...” (al- Baqarah 2:284], their hearts were filled with distress as never before. The Prophet (PBUH) said: "Say: We hear and we obey and submit.” Then Allah instilled faith in their hearts and He revealed: The Messenger (Muhammad (PBUH)) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. (They say,) 'We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers' - and they say, 'We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all)/ Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. 'Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and Christians); our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Mawla (Patron, Supporter and Protector) and give us victory over the disbelieving people'” [al-Baqarah 2:285, 286],

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (RA) said: When the verse "And those who accuse chaste women, and produce not four witnesses, flog them with eighty stripes, and reject their testimony forever" [an-Noor 24:4] was revealed, Saad bin 'Ubadah, who was the leader of the Ansar, said: Is this how it was revealed, O Messenger of Allah? The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "O Ansar, don't you hear what your leader is saying?" They said: O Messenger of Allah, do not blame him, for he is a man of protective jealousy; by Allah, he has never married any woman but a virgin and he never divorced any wife of his but no man among us would dare to marry her because of his strong protective jealousy. Saad said: By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I know it is true and that it is from Allah, may He be exalted, but i was surprised that if I were to find this stupid woman with a man on top of her, I should not disturb him or make him move until I bring four witnesses; by Allah, I would not be able to bring them before he finishes what he is doing. A short while later, Hilal bin Umayyah, who was one of the three whose repentance was accepted, came back from his land at night and found a man with his wife; he saw with his own eyes and heard with his own ears, but he did not disturb him until morning came, then he went to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and said: O Messenger of Allah, I came to my wife last night and found a man with her; I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) disliked what he said and was very distressed. The Ansar gathered and said: Now we are facing the problem that Saad bin 'Ubadah expected; the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) will beat Hilal bin Umayyah and declare his testimony invalid among the Muslims. Hilal said: By Allah, I hope that Allah will grant me a way out. Hilal said: O Messenger of Allah, I can see that you are very distressed because of what I told you, but Allah knows that I am telling the truth. By Allah, when the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)was about to order that he be beaten. Revelation came to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH). When Revelation came to him, they could tell because his colour changed, so they left him alone until the Revelation was over. And this verse was revealed: "And for those who accuse their w'ives, but have no witnesses except themselves, let the testimony of one of them be four testimonies (i,e. testifies four times) by Allah that he is one of those who speak the truth" [an- Noor 24:6], The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) recovered and said: Be of good cheer, O Hilal, for Allah has granted you a way out." Hilal said: I hoped for that from my Lord, may He be glorified and exalted. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "Send for her." So they sent for her, and she came. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) recited the verse to them both, and reminded them of Allah, and told them that punishment in the Hereafter is more severe than punishment in this world. Hilal said: By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, i spoke the truth about her. She said: He is lying. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "Invoke curses upon one another (Wan)’’ It was said to Hilal: Bear witness. He bore witness four times by Allah that he was one of those who speak the truth. And when it came to the fifth time, it was said: O Hilal, fear Allah, for punishment in this world is easier to bear than punishment in the Hereafter, and this is the one that will incur the punishment for you. He said: By Allah, Allah will not punish me for it, just as He did not cause me to be flogged for it. And the fifth time he bore witness that the curse of Allah hould be upon him if he was one of those who tell a lie. Then it was said to her: Bear witness four times by Allah that he is one of those who tell a lie. And when it came to the fifth time, it was said to her: Fear Allah, for punishment in this world is easier to bear than punishment in the Hereafter, and this is the one that will incur the punishment for you. She hesitated for a while, then she said: By Allah, I shall not bring disgrace upon my people. And she bore witness the fifth time that the wrath of Allah should be upon her if he was one of those who speak the truth. Then the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) separated them and ruled that her child should not be named after any father; she was not to be accused (of adultery) and he (the child) was not to be accused (of being illegitimate), and anyone who accused her or her child would be subjected to the hadd punishment. And he ruled that she had no right to accommodation or maintenance (food) from him, because they had been separated by means of some- thing other than talaq (divorce) and he had not died and left her a widow. And he said: "If she gives birth to a child with a reddish complexion, small buttocks and thin legs, then he is the child of Hilal, and if she gives birth to a child with dark skin, curly hair, a heavy frame, thick legs and large buttocks, then he is the child of the one with whom she was accused of committing adultery." And she gave birth to a child with dark skin, curly hair, a heavy frame, thick legs and large buttocks. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "Were it not for the oaths, I would have something to settle with her." 'Ikrimah said: After that, he became the governor of a city. He was named after his mother, and not after any father.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ الْمُجَبِّرِ التَّيْمِيَّ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَاهُ فَقَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا قَتَلَ رَجُلًا مُتَعَمِّدًا قَالَ جَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا قَالَ لَقَدْ أُنْزِلَتْ فِي آخِرِ مَا نَزَلَ مَا نَسَخَهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَا نَزَلَ وَحْيٌ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا ثُمَّ اهْتَدَى قَالَ وَأَنَّى لَهُ بِالتَّوْبَةِ وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ثَكِلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ رَجُلٌ قَتَلَ رَجُلًا مُتَعَمِّدًا يَجِيءُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ آخِذًا قَاتِلَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ أَوْ بِيَسَارِهِ وَآخِذًا رَأْسَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ أَوْ شِمَالِهِ تَشْخَبُ أَوْدَاجُهُ دَمًا فِي قُبُلِ الْعَرْشِ يَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ سَلْ عَبْدَكَ فِيمَ قَتَلَنِي

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (RA) that a man came to him and said: What do you think of a man who kills another man deliberately? He said: "his recompense is Hell to abide therein; and the Wrath and the Curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him" [an-Nisa' 4:93], He said: It was one of the last verses to be revealed, and nothing abrogated it, until the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)died, and no revelation came down after the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)died. He said: What do you think if he repents, believes and does righteous deeds, then follows true guidance? He said: How can his repentance be accepted, when I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) say, "May his mother be bereft of him! If a man kills another man deliberately, he [the victim] will come on the Day of Resurrection holding on to his killer with his right or left hand, or holding on to his killer's head with his right or left hand, and with his vein gushing with blood before the Throne, saying: O Lord, ask Your slave why he killed me."

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ أَبِي الْحَكَمِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ادْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ لَنَا الصَّفَا ذَهَبًا وَنُؤْمِنُ بِكَ قَالَ وَتَفْعَلُونَ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ فَدَعَا فَأَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ وَيَقُولُ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَصْبَحَ لَهُمْ الصَّفَا ذَهَبًا فَمَنْ كَفَرَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُمْ عَذَّبْتُهُ عَذَابًا لَا أُعَذِّبُهُ أَحَدًا مِنْ الْعَالَمِينَ وَإِنْ شِئْتَ فَتَحْتُ لَهُمْ بَابَ التَّوْبَةِ وَالرَّحْمَةِ قَالَ بَلْ بَابُ التَّوْبَةِ وَالرَّحْمَةِ

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (RA) said: Quraish said to the Prophet (PBUH): Pray to your Lord and ask Him to make as- Safa gold for us, and we will believe in you. He said: "Will you do that?" They said: Yes. So he prayed, and Jibreel came to him and said: "Your Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, conveys greetings of salam to you and says to you: 'If you wish, as-Safa will become gold for them, then whoever among them disbelieves after that, I will punish him in a way that I have never punished anyone in the worlds. Or if you wish, I will open for them the gate of repentance and mercy.'" He said: "Rather the gate of repentance and mercy."

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا الْهَجَرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ التَّوْبَةُ مِنْ الذَّنْبِ أَنْ يَتُوبَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ لَا يَعُودَ فِيهِ

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said: The Messenger of Allah said: "Repentance from sin means repenting from it and not going back to it."

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُلْتُ أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ الصَّلَوَاتُ لِوَقْتِهَا وَبِرُّ الْوَالِدَيْنِ وَالْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood said: I asked the Messenger of Allah (PBUH): Which deed is best? He said: "Prayer offered on time, honouring one's parents and jihad for the sake of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted.”

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Mas'ood said: I asked the Messenger of Allah (PBUH): O Messenger of Allah, which deed is best? He said: "Prayer offered on time." I said: Then what, O Messenger of Allah? He said: Honouring one's parents." I said: Then what, O Messenger of Allah? He said: Jihad for the sake of Allah. Then I fell silent and if I had asked the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) for more, he would have given me more.

اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَتَبَ إِلَى قَيْصَرَ يَدْعُوهُ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ وَبَعَثَ كِتَابَهُ مَعَ دِحْيَةَ الْكَلْبِيِّ وَأَمَرَهُ

أَبُو سُفْيَانَ فَأَتَانِي رَسُولُ قَيْصَرَ فَانْطَلَقَ بِي وَبِأَصْحَابِي حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا إِيلْيَاءَ فَأُدْخِلْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي مَجْلِسِ مُلْكِهِ عَلَيْهِ التَّاجُ وَإِذَا

قَالَ مَا قَرَابَتُكَ مِنْهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ هُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّي قَالَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ وَلَيْسَ فِي الرَّكْبِ يَوْمَئِذٍ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ مَنَافٍ غَيْرِي قَالَ فَقَالَ قَيْصَرُ أَدْنُوهُ مِنِّي

'Abdullah bin 'Abbas (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) wrote to Caesar, calling him to Islam. He sent his letter with Dihyah al-Kalbi, and the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) instructed him to give it to the ruler of Busra so that he could give it to Caesar. And the ruler of Busra gave it to Caesar. When Allah caused him to defeat the Persian troops, Caesar walked from Homs to Jerusalem on carpets that were spread out for him. 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas (RA) said: When the letter of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) came to Caesar, he said when he read it: Find me one of his people so that I can ask him about the Messenger of Allah (PBUH). Ibn 'Abbas (RA) said: Abu Sufyan bin Harb told me that he was in Syria with some men of Quraish who had come for trade, and that was at a time when there was a truce between the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and the disbelievers of Quraish. Abu Sufyan said: The messenger of Caesar came to me and took me and my ompanions to Jerusalem, where we were admitted into his [Caesar's] presence. He was sitting in his royal court, wearing a crown and with the Byzantine leaders around him. He said to his interpreter: Ask them which of them is closest in lineage to this man who claims to be a Prophet. Abu Sufyan said: I am the closest in lineage to him. He said: What is your relationship to him? I said: He is my cousin (the son of my paternal uncle). Abu Sufyan said: On that occasion, there was no one else of Banu ' Abd Manaf in the caravan except me. Caesar said: Let him come close to me. Then he instructed that my companions should be made to stand behind me, at my shoulder. Then he said to his interpreter: Tell his companions that I am going to ask this one about this man who claims to be a Prophet, and if he lies they should say that he is lying. Abu Sufyan said: By Allah, were it not that it would have been shameful at that time for my companions to describe me as a liar, I would have lied when he asked me. But I felt that it was shameful to be described as a liar, so I told the truth about him. Then Caesar said to his interpreter: Say to him: What kind of lineage does this man have among you? I said: He is of a noble lineage among us. He said: Did anyone among you say the same thing before him? I said: No. He said: Did you ever blame him for telling lies before he said what he said? I said: No. He said: Was anyone among his forebears a king? i said; No. He said: Do the nobles of the people follow him, or the poor and weak? 1 said: The poor and weak (follow him). He said: Are they increasing or decreasing in number? I said: They are increasing. He said: Does anyone leave his religion because he is displeased with it after entering it? I said: No. He said: Does he break his promises? I said: No, but now we have a truce with him and we are afraid that he may break the truce. Abu Sufyan said: ther than that, I could not find anything to say against him to undermine him, and I was afraid that that would be held against me. He said: Did you fight him or did he fight you? I said: Yes. He said: What was the outcome of your battles with him? i said: It varied; sometimes he was victorious and sometimes we were. He said: What does he enjoin you to do? i said: He enjoins us to worship Allah alone and not to associate anything with Him; he tells us not to worship what our fathers worshipped; and he enjoins us to pray, give charity, be chaste, keep promises and render back trusts. He said to his interpreter when I said that to him: Tell him: I asked about his lineage and you said that he has a noble lineage among you; this is how all the Messengers are, they are the nobles of their people, f asked you whether anyone among you had said this before, and you said no. I thought that if anyone among you had said this before, I would have said that he was a man who was following the example of some one who had said something similar before. I asked you whether you had accused him of lying before he said what he said, and you said no. Then i realised that the one who did not tell lies about people would never tell a lie about Allah.I asked you whether any of his forebears had been a king and you said no. I thought that if any of his forebears had been a king, I would have said that he was a man who was seeking his father's kingdom. I asked you whether the nobles among the people follow him or the weak and poor, and you said that the weak and poor follow him; they are always the followers of the Messengers. I asked you whether they were increasing or decreasing in number, and you said that they are increasing. This is how true faith is until it is complete. I asked you whether anyone leaves his religion because he is displeased with it after entering it, and you said no. This is how true faith is when its cheerfulness enters the heart and mixes with it: no one becomes displeased with it. I asked you whether he broke his promises and you said no; this is how the Messengers are. I asked you whether you had fought him or he had fought you and you said that this had happened, and that the outcome of the battles between you and him varied: sometimes he was victorious and sometimes you were. This is how the Messengers are; they are put to trial but the final victory is always theirs. I asked you what he enjoins you to do, and you said that he enjoins you to worship Allah alone and not to associate anything with Him; he tells you not to worship what your forefathers worshipped; and he enjoins you to give in charity, pray, be chaste, fulfil promises and render back trusts. This is the character of a Prophet who I knew would appear, but I did not think that he would be from among you. If what you have said to me is true, he will soon take possession of the land beneath my feet. By Allah, if I knew that I would definitely reach him, I would immediately go to meet him, and if I were with him I would wash his feet. Abu Sufyan said: Then he called for the letter of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and ordered that it be read out loud. In the letter he said: "In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. From Muhammad, the slave of Allah and His Messenger, to Heraclius the ruler of Byzantium. Peace be upon those who follow true guidance. I am calling you to Islam: become Muslim and you will be safe.Become Muslim and Allah will bestow upon you a double reward, but if you turn away, the sins of the peasants will be upon you. 'O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): Come to a word that is just between us and you, that we worship none but Allah (Alone), and that we associate no partners with Him, and that none of us shall take others as lords besides Allah. Then, if they turn away, say: "Bear witness that we are Muslims"' [Al - 'Imran 3:64]." Abu Sufyan said: When he finished his speech, the voices of the Byzantine leaders who were around him were raised, and there was so much noise that I could not understand what they said. Then he ordered that we be sent away. When I left with my companions and was alone with them, I said to them: The affair of Ibn Abi Kabshah’ (RA) has gained power: this king of Banul-Asfar [the Byzantines] fears him. Abu Sufyan said: By Allah, i became humble after that and was certain that he would be victorious, until Allah instilled Islam in my heart even though I was reluctant.

It was narrated from Abu Bakr as-Siddeeq (RA) that he said to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) leach me a du'a’ that I may say in my prayer.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said on the day of the Conquest of Makkah: "There is no hijrah (migration), but there is jihad and good intentions. When you are mobilized, then go forth."

Abu Hurairah said: I heard Abu Bakr as-Siddeeq on this minbar saying: I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) on this day last year - then Abu Bakr wept, then he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) say: "You will not be given anything, after the word of sincerity (i.e., the Shahadah), like well-being, so ask Allah for well-being."

Qais said: Abu Bakr stood up and praised and glorified Allah, then he said: O people, you recite this verse: "O you who believe! Take care of your ownselves. If you follow the (right) guidance..." [al-Ma'idah 5:105], but you do not interpret it properly. I heard the Messenger of Allah say: "If the people see evil and do not change it, soon Allah will send His punishment upon them all." He [Qais] said: I heard Abu Bakr say: O people, beware of lying, for lying is contrary to faith.

' Ali said: If I heard something from the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), Allah would benefit me thereby as He willed. Abu Bakr told me - and Abu Bakr spoke the truth - he said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "There is no Muslim who commits a sin then does wudoo' and prays two rak’ahs then asks Allah for forgiveness for that sin, but He will forgive him." And he recited these two verses: "And whoever does evil or wrongs himself but after- wards seeks Allah's forgiveness, he will find Allah Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful" [an-Nisa' 4:110] "And those who, when they have committed Fahishah (illegal sexual intercourse) or wronged themselves with evil, remember Allah and ask forgiveness for their sins; - and none can forgive sins but Allah - and do not persist in what (wrong) they have done, while they know" [Al 'Imran 3:135]

It was narrated that Ibn Abbas (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "The expiation for sin is regret." And the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "If you did not sin, Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, would bring another people who would commit sin so that He could forgive them."

Salim bin Abil-Ja'd narrated: A man came to Ibn 'Abbas (RA) and said: O Ibn 'Abbas, what do you think of a man who kills a believer? Ibn 'Abbas replied: "...his recompense is Hell to abide therein; and the Wrath and the Curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him" [an-Nisa' 4:93]. He said: O Ibn 'Abbas, what do you think if he repents, believes and does righteous deeds? He said: May his mother be bereft of him! How could he repent when the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)said: "The slain one will come on the Day of Resurrection, carrying his head in his right hand - or he said: in his left hand - and holding on to his killer with his other hand, and with his vein gushing with blood; [he will come] towards the Throne of the Most Merciful, saying, 'O Lord, ask this one why he killed me"'?

It was narrated that Abu Nadrah said: Ibn 'Abbas addressed us from the minbar of Basrah and said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH)said: "There was no Prophet but he had a supplication that was ful- filled for him in this world, but I have saved my supplication to be an intercession for my umrnah. I will be the leader of the sons of Adam on the Day of Resurrection, and no boast. I will be the first one for whom the earth is split, and no boast. In my hands will be a banner of praise, and no boast. Adam and all others will be under my banner, and no boast. The Day of Resurrection will be very long for the people, and they will say to one another: 'Let us go to Adam, the father of mankind, so that he might intercede with our Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, to judge among us.' So they will go to Adam and will say: 'O Adam, you are the one whom Allah created with His own hand; He caused you to dwell in Paradise and He commanded His angels to prostrate to you; intercede for us with your Lord so that He might judge among us.' He will say: 'I am not able for that; i was expelled from Paradise because of my sin. I am not concerned about anyone today except myself. Rather go to Nooh, the head of the Prophets/ So they will go to Nooh and will say: 'O Nooh, intercede for us with our Lord, that He might judge among us/ He will say: 'I am not able for that; I offered supplication because of which all the people of earth were drowned, I am not concerned about anyone today except myself. Rather go to Ibraheem the Close Friend (Khctled) of Allah’ So they will go to Ibraheem (AS) and will say: 'O Ibraheem, intercede for us with our Lord so that He may judge among us/ But he will say: 'I am not able for that; I told three lies for the sake of Islam. I am not concerned about anyone else today except myself”. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "All he wanted to do was to defend the religion of Allah when he said: 'Verily, I am sick' [as- Saffat 37:89] and he said of his wife when he came to the king. 'she is my sister'. - [lbraheem will say:] 'Rather go to Moosa (AS), whom Allah chose to send with His message and He spoke to him.' So they will go to oosa and will say: 'O Moosa, you are the one whom Allah chose for His message and He spoke to you; intercede for us with our Lord so that He might judge among us.' He will say: 'I am not able for that, for i killed a soul unlawfully. I am not concerned about anyone today except myself. Rather go to 'Eesa, the Spirit from Allah and His Word.' So they will go to 'Eesa and will say; 'O 'Eesa, you are the Spirit from Allah and His word; intercede for us with your Lord, that He might judge among us.' But he will say: 'I am not able for that, for I was taken as a god instead of Allah. I am not concerned about anyone today except myself. But if there was something in the vessel and it was sealed, would anyone be able to get what is in it unless he undoes the seal?' They will say: 'No.' He will say: 'Muhammad is the Seal of the Prophets; he has just come today and his previous and future sins have been forgiven."' The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said; "So they will come to me and will say: 'O Muhammad, intercede for us with your Lord, so that He might judge among us.' I will say: 'Yes, I am able for it, when Allah gives leave for whom He wills and is pleased with.' When Allah, may He be blessed and exaltedwants to judge among His creation, a caller will call out: 'Where is Muhammad and his ummahT For we are the last and the first; we are the last of the nations and the first to be brought to account. So the other nations will make way for us, and we will start moving with faces and limbs that are bright with the traces of wudoo' . The other nations will say: 'Nearly all of this ummah are almost Prophets’. Then I will come to the gate of Paradise and will take hold of the ring in the gate and knock on it. It will be said: 'Who arc you?' I will say: 'I am Muhammad.' It will be opened for me, and I will see my Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, on His Throne. I will fall down in prostration before Him and I will praise Him in words of praise that no one said before me and no one will say after me. It will be said: 'O Muhammad, raise your head; ask and you will be given, speak and you will be heard, intercede and your intercession will be accepted’ I will raise my head and say: 'O Lord, my ummah, my ummah.' It will be said to me: 'Bring forth from the Fire whoever has in his heart faith the weight of such and such and I will bring them forth. Then I will go back and prostrate, and I will praise Him in words of praise that no one said before me and no one will say after me. It will be said: 'Raise your head; speak and you will be heard, ask and you will be given, intercede and your intercession will be accepted.' I will raise my head and say: 'O Lord, my ummah, my ummah.' It will be said: 'Bring forth from the Fire whoever has in his heart faith the weight of such and such,' and I will bring them forth." And the third time he also said something similar.
