Narrated `Amr bin Dinar:

I was sitting with Jabir bin Zaid and `Amr bin Aus, and Bjalla was narrating to them in 70 A.H. the year when Mus`ab bin Az-Zubair was the leader of the pilgrims of Basra. We were sitting at the steps of Zamzam well and Bajala said, “I was the clerk of Juz bin Muawiya, Al-Ahnaf’s paternal uncle. A letter came from `Umar bin Al-Khattab one year before his death; and it was read:– “Cancel every marriage contracted among the Magians between relatives of close kinship (marriages that are regarded illegal in Islam: a relative of this sort being called Dhu-Mahram.)” `Umar did not take the Jizya from the Magian infidels till `Abdur-Rahman bin `Auf testified that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) had taken the Jizya from the Magians of Hajar.

(who was an ally of Bam `Amr bin Lu’ai and one of those who had taken part in (the Ghazwa of) Badr): Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) sent Abu ‘Ubaida bin Al-Jarreh to Bahrain to collect the Jizya. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) had established peace with the people of Bahrain and appointed Al-`Ala’ bin Al-Hadrami as their governor. When Abu ‘Ubaida came from Bahrain with the money, the Ansar heard of Abu ‘Ubaida’s arrival which coincided with the time of the morning prayer with the Prophet. When Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) led them in the morning prayer and finished, the Ansar approached him, and he looked at them and smiled on seeing them and said, “I feel that you have heard that Abu. ‘Ubaida has brought something?” They said, “Yes, O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)’ He said, “Rejoice and hope for what will please you! By Allah, I am not afraid of your poverty but I am afraid that you will lead a life of luxury as past nations did, whereupon you will compete with each other for it, as they competed for it, and it will destroy you as it destroyed them.”

Sahih al-Bukhari 3158

Narrated Jubair bin Haiya:

`Umar sent the Muslims to the great countries to fight the pagans. When Al-Hurmuzan embraced Islam, `Umar said to him. “I would like to consult you regarding these countries which I intend to invade.” Al-Hurmuzan said, “Yes, the example of these countries and their inhabitants who are the enemies. of the Muslims, is like a bird with a head, two wings and two legs; If one of its wings got broken, it would get up over its two legs, with one wing and the head; and if the other wing got broken, it would get up with two legs and a head, but if its head got destroyed, then the two legs, two wings and the head would become useless. The head stands for Khosrau, and one wing stands for Caesar and the other wing stands for Faris. So, order the Muslims to go towards Khosrau.” So, `Umar sent us (to Khosrau) appointing An-Nu`man bin Muqrin as our commander. When we reached the land of the enemy, the representative of Khosrau came out with forty-thousand warriors, and an interpreter got up saying, “Let one of you talk to me!” Al-Mughira replied, “Ask whatever you wish.” The other asked, “Who are you?” Al-Mughira replied, “We are some people from the Arabs; we led a hard, miserable, disastrous life: we used to suck the hides and the date stones from hunger; we used to wear clothes made up of fur of camels and hair of goats, and to worship trees and stones. While we were in this state, the Lord of the Heavens and the Earths, Elevated is His Remembrance and Majestic is His Highness, sent to us from among ourselves a Prophet whose father and mother are known to us. Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, has ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah Alone or give Jizya (i.e. tribute); and our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says:– “Whoever amongst us is killed (i.e. martyred), shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever amongst us remain alive, shall become your master.” (Al-Mughira, then blamed An-Nu`man for delaying the attack and) An-Nu’ man said to Al-Mughira, “If you had participated in a similar battle, in the company of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) he would not have blamed you for waiting, nor would he have disgraced you. But I accompanied Allah’s Apostle in many battles and it was his custom that if he did not fight early by daytime, he would wait till the wind had started blowing and the time for the prayer was due (i.e. after midday).

Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) once said to me, “If the revenue of Bahrain came, I would give you this much and this much.” When Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) had died, the revenue of Bahrain came, and Abu Bakr announced, ” Let whoever was promised something by Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) come to me.” So, I went to Abu Bakr and said, “Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said to me, ‘If the revenue of Bahrain came, I would give you this much and this. much.” On that Abu Bakr said to me, “Scoop (money) with both your hands.” I scooped money with both my hands and Abu Bakr asked me to count it. I counted it and it was five-hundred (gold pieces). The total amount he gave me was one thousand and five hundred (gold pieces.) Narrated Anas: Money from Bahrain was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) . He said, “Spread it in the Mosque.” It was the biggest amount that had ever been brought to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) . In the meantime Al-`Abbas came to him and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Give me, for I gave the ransom of myself and `Aqil.” The Prophet said (to him), “Take.” He scooped money with both hands and poured it in his garment and tried to lift it, but he could not and appealed to the Prophet, “Will you order someone to help me in lifting it?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “No.” Then Al-`Abbas said, “Then will you yourself help me carry it?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “No.” Then Al `Abbas threw away some of the money, but even then he was not able to lift it, and so he gain requested the Prophet (ﷺ) “Will you order someone to help me carry it?” The Prophet said, “No.” Then Al-`Abbas said, “Then will you yourself yelp me carry it?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, ‘No.” So, Al-`Abbas threw away some more money and lifted it on his shoulder and went away. The Prophet (ﷺ) kept on looking at him with astonishment at his greediness till he went out of our sight. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did not get up from there till not a single Dirham remained from that money.

Do you think he is delirious? Ask him (to understand). The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, ‘Leave me as I am in a better state than what you are asking me to do.’ Then the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered them to do three things saying, ‘Turn out all the pagans from the Arabian Peninsula, show respect to all foreign delegates by giving them gifts as I used to do.’ ” The sub-narrator added, “The third order was something beneficial which either Ibn `Abbas did not mention or he mentioned but I forgot.’

By Allah, we shall never replace you in it.” Then he asked, “Will you now tell me the truth if I ask you a question?” They said, “Yes, O Abu Al-Qasim.” He asked, “Have you poisoned this sheep?” They said, “Yes.” He asked, “What made you do so?” They said, “We wanted to know if you were a liar in which case we would get rid of you, and if you are a prophet then the poison would not harm you.”

I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! My brother `Ali has declared that he will kill a man to whom I have granted asylum. The man is so and-so bin Hubaira.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “O Um Hani!

So, whoever innovates in it an heresy or commits a sin or gives shelter in it, to such an innovator will incur the Curse of Allah, the angels and all the people, and none of his compulsory or optional good deeds of worship will be accepted. And whoever (freed slave) takes as his master (i.e. befriends) other than his real masters will incur the same (Curse).

He buried him and returned to Medina. `Abdur Rahman bin Sahl, Muhaiyisa and Huwaiuisa, the sons of Mas`ud came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and `Abdur Rahman intended to talk, but the Prophet (ﷺ) said (to him), “Let the eldest of you speak.” as `Abdur-Rahman was the youngest:. `Abdur-Rahman kept silent and the other two spoke. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “If you swear as to who has committed the murder, you will have the right to take your right from the murderer.” They said, “How should we swear if we did not witness the murder or see the murderer?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Then the Jews can clear themselves from the charge by taking Alaska (an oath taken by men that it was not they who committed the murder).” The!y said, “How should we believe in the oaths of infidels?” So, the Prophet (ﷺ) himself paid the blood money (of `Abdullah).

Abu Bakr threw back the pagans’ covenant that year, and therefore, no pagan performed the Hajj in the year of Hajj-ul-Wada` of the Prophets.

Aren’t we in the right and our opponents in the wrongs’ Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, ‘Yes.’ `Umar said, ‘Aren’t our killed persons in Paradise and their’s in Hell?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ `Umar said, ‘Then why should we accept hard terms in matters concerning our religion? Shall we return before Allah judges between us and them?’ Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, ‘O Ibn Al- Khattab! I am the Messenger of Allah and Allah will never degrade me.

They stipulated that he would not stay for more than three days and would not enter it except with sheathed arms and would not preach (Islam) to any of them. So `Ali bin Abi- Talib started writing the treaty between them. He wrote, “This is what Muhammad, Apostle of Allah has agreed to.” The (Meccans) said, “If we knew that you (Muhammad) are the Messenger of Allah, then we would not have prevented you and would have followed you. But write, ‘This is what Muhammad bin `Abdullah has agreed to..’ ” On that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “By Allah, I am Muhammad bin `Abdullah, and, by Allah, I am Apostle of ‘Allah.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) used not to write; so he asked `Ali to erase the expression of Apostle of Allah. On that `Ali said, “By Allah I will never erase it.” Allah’s Apostle said (to `Ali), “Let me see the paper.” When `Ali showed him the paper, the Prophet (ﷺ) erased the expression with his own hand. When Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) had entered Mecca and three days had elapsed, the Meccans came to `Ali and said, “Let your friend (i.e. the Prophet) quit Mecca.” `Ali informed Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) about it and Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Yes,” and then he departed.

So, it is a sanctuary by Allah’s Decree till the Day of Resurrection. Fighting in it was not legal for anyone before me, and it was made legal for me only for an hour by daytime. So, it (i.e. Mecca) is a sanctuary by Allah’s Decree till the Day of Resurrection. Its thorny bushes should not be cut, and its game should not be chased, its fallen property (i.e. Luqata) should not be picked up except by one who will announce it publicly; and its grass should not be uprooted,” On that Al-`Abbas said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Except the Idhkhir, because it is used by the goldsmiths and by the people for their houses.” On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Except the Idhkhir.”
