The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions, and

Apostle, and whoever emigrated to take worldly benefit
or for a woman to marry, then his emigration was for
what he emigrated for."

Narrated Talha bin 'Ubaidullah:
A bedouin with unkempt hair
came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle!
Tell me what Allah has enjoined on me as regards
prayers." The Prophet said, "You have to offer perfectly
the five (compulsory) prayers in a day and a night (24
hrs.), except if you want to perform some extra optional
prayers." The bedouin said, "Tell me what Allah has
enjoined on me as regards fasting." The Prophet said,
"You have to observe fast during the month of Ramadan
except if you fast some extra optional fast." The
bedouin said, "Tell me what Allah has enjoined on me as
regard Zakat." The Prophet then told him the Islamic
laws and regulations whereupon the bedouin said, "By Him
Who has honored you, I will not perform any optional
deeds of worship and I will not leave anything of what
Allah has enjoined on me." Allah's Apostle said, "He
will be successful if he has told the truth (or he will
enter Paradise if he said the truth)." And some people
said, "The Zakat for one-hundred and twenty camels is
two Hiqqas, and if the Zakat payer slaughters the camels
intentionally or gives them as a present or plays some
other trick in order to avoid the Zakat, then there is
no harm (in it) for him.

Allah's Apostle said, "On the
Day of Resurrection the Kanz (Treasure or wealth of
which, Zakat has not been paid) of anyone of you will
appear in the shape of a huge bald headed poisonous male
snake and its owner will run away from it, but it will
follow him and say, 'I am your Kanz.'" The Prophet
added, "By Allah, that snake will keep on following him
until he stretches out his hand and let the snake
swallow it." Allah's Apostle added, "If the owner of
camels does not pay their Zakat, then, on the Day of
Resurrection those camels will come to him and will
strike his face with their hooves." Some people said:
Concerning a man who has camels, and is afraid that
Zakat will be due so he sells those camels for similar
camels or for sheep or cows or money one day before
Zakat becomes due in order to avoid payment of their
Zakat cunningly! "He has not to pay anything." The same
scholar said, "If one pays Zakat of his camels one day
or one year prior to the end of the year (by the end of
which Zakat becomes due), his Zakat will be valid."

Sa'd bin 'Ubada Al-Ansari
sought the verdict of Allah's Apostle regarding a vow
made by his mother who had died before fulfilling it.
Allah's Apostle said, "Fulfill it on her behalf." Some
people said, "If the number of camels reaches twenty,
then their owner has to pay four sheep as Zakat; and if
their owner gives them as a gift or sells them in order
to escape the payment of Zakat cunningly before the
completion of a year, then he is not to pay anything,
and if he slaughters them and then dies, then no Zakat
is to be taken from his property."

marry the daughter of a man and marry one's daughter to
that man (at the same time) without Mahr (in both
cases); or to marry the sister of a man and marry one's
own sister to that man without Mahr." Some people said,
"If one, by a trick, marries on the basis of Shighar,
the marriage is valid but its condition is illegal." The
same scholar said regarding Al-Mut'a, "The marriage is
invalid and its condition is illegal." Some others said,
"The Mut'a and the Shighar are permissible but the
condition is illegal."

That he asked 'Aisha regarding
the Verse: 'If you fear that you shall not be able to
deal justly with the orphan girls, marry (other) women
of your choice.' (4.3) 'Aisha said, "It is about an
orphan girl under the custody of her guardian who being
attracted by her wealth and beauty wants to marry her
with Mahr less than other women of her status. So such
guardians were forbidden to marry them unless they treat
them justly by giving them their full Mahr. Then the
people sought the verdict of Allah's Apostle for such
cases, whereupon Allah revealed: 'They ask your
instruction concerning women..' (4.127) (The
sub-narrator then mentioned the Hadith.)

If ever I give (by error) somebody something of his

only, given him a piece of Fire." (See Hadith No. 638.

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "A virgin
should not be married till she is asked for her consent;
and the matron should not be married till she is asked
whether she agrees to marry or not." It was asked, "O
Allah's Apostle! How will she(the virgin) express her
consent?" He said, "By keeping silent." Some people
said, "If a virgin is not asked for her consent and she
is not married, and then a man, by playing a trick
presents two false witnesses that he has married her
with her consent and the judge confirms his marriage as
a true one, and the husband knows that the witnesses
were false ones, then there is no harm for him to
consummate his marriage with her and the marriage is
regarded as valid."

consulted, and a virgin should not be given in marriage
until her permission is granted." The people said, "How
will she express her permission?" The Prophet said, "By
keeping silent (when asked her consent)." Some people
said, "If a man, by playing a trick, presents two false
witnesses before the judge to testify that he has
married a matron with her consent and the judge confirms
his marriage, and the husband is sure that he has never
married her (before), then such a marriage will be
considered as a legal one and he may live with her as
husband."
Volume

Allah's Apostle said, "It is
essential to have the consent of a virgin (for the
marriage). I said, "A virgin feels shy." The Prophet;
said, "Her silence means her consent." Some people said,
"If a man falls in love with an orphan slave girl or a
virgin and she refuses (him) and then he makes a trick
by bringing two false witnesses to testify that he has
married her, and then she attains the age of puberty and
agrees to marry him and the judge accepts the false
witness and the husband knows that the witnesses were
false ones, he may consummate his marriage."
Volume
9, Book 86, Number 102:
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle used to like
sweets and also used to like honey, and whenever he
finished the 'Asr prayer, he used to visit his wives and
stay with them. Once he visited Hafsa and remained with
her longer than the period he used to stay, so I
enquired about it. It was said to me, "A woman from her
tribe gave her a leather skin containing honey as a
present, and she gave some of it to Allah's Apostle to
drink." I said, "By Allah, we will play a trick on him."
So I mentioned the story to Sauda (the wife of the
Prophet) and said to her, "When he enters upon you, he
will come near to you whereupon you should say to him,
'O Allah's Apostle! Have you eaten Maghafir?' He will
say, 'No.' Then you say to him, 'What is this bad smell?
' And it would be very hard on Allah's Apostle that a
bad smell should be found on his body. He will say,
'Hafsa has given me a drink of honey.' Then you should
say to him, 'Its bees must have sucked from the
Al-'Urfut (a foul smelling flower).' I too, will tell
him the same. And you, O Saifya, say the same."
So when the Prophet entered
upon Sauda (the following happened). Sauda said, "By Him
except Whom none has the right to be worshipped, I was
about to say to him what you had told me to say while he
was still at the gate because of fear from you. But when
Allah 's Apostle came near to me, I said to him, 'O
Allah's Apostle! Have you eaten Maghafir?' He replied,
'No.' I said, 'What about this smell?' He said, 'Hafsa
has given me a drink of honey.' I said, 'Its bees must
have sucked Al-'Urfut.' " When he entered upon me, I
told him the same as that, and when he entered upon
Safiya, she too told him the same. So when he visited
Hafsa again, she said to him, "O Allah's Apostle! Shall
I give you a drink of it (honey)?" He said, "I have no
desire for it." Sauda said, Subhan Allah! We have
deprived him of it (honey)." I said to her, "Be quiet!"
Volume

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amir
bin Rabi'a:
'Umar bin Al-Khattab left for
Sham, and when he reached a placed called Sargh, he came
to know that there was an outbreak of an epidemic (of
plague) in Sham. Then 'AbdurRahman bin 'Auf told him
that Allah's Apostle said, "If you hear the news of an
outbreak of an epidemic (plague) in a certain place, do
not enter that place: and if the epidemic falls in a
place while you are present in it, do not leave that
place to escape from the epidemic." So 'Umar returned
from Sargh.
Volume

Narrated 'Amir bin Sa'd bin Abi
Waqqas:
That he heard Usama bin Zaid
speaking to Sa'd, saying, "Allah's Apostle mentioned the
plague and said, 'It is a means of punishment with which
some nations were punished and some of it has remained,
and it appears now and then. So whoever hears that there
is an outbreak of plague in some land, he should not go
to that land, and if the plague breaks out in the land
where one is already present, one should not run away
from that land, escaping from the plague."
Volume

this bad example."
Volume
9, Book 86, Number 106:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet has decreed that
preemption is valid in all cases where the real estate
concerned has not been divided, but if the boundaries
are established and the ways are made, then there is no
preemption. A man said, "Preemption is only for the
neighbor," and then he makes invalid what he has
confirmed. He said, "If someone wants to buy a house and
being afraid that the neighbor (of the house) may buy it
through preemption, he buys one share out of one hundred
shares of the house and then buys the rest of the house,
then the neighbor can only have the right of preemption
for the first share but not for the rest of the house;
and the buyer may play such a trick in this case."
Volume
9, Book 86, Number 107:
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid:
Al-Miswar bin Makhrama came and
put his hand on my shoulder and I accompanied him to
Sa'd. Abu Rafi' said to Al-Miswar, "Won't you order this
(i.e. Sa'd) to buy my house which is in my yard?" Sa'd
said, "I will not offer more than four hundred in
installments over a fixed period." Abu Rafi said, "I was
offered five hundred cash but I refused. Had I not heard
the Prophet saying, 'A neighbor is more entitled to
receive the care of his neighbor,' I would not have sold
it to you." The narrator said, to Sufyan: Ma'mar did not
say so. Sufyan said, "But he did say so to me." Some
people said, "If someone wants to sell a house and
deprived somebody of the right of preemption, he has the
right to play a trick to render the preemption invalid.
And that is by giving the house to the buyer as a
present and marking its boundaries and giving it to him.
The buyer then gives the seller one-thousand Dirham as
compensation in which case the preemptor loses his right
of preemption."
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid:
Abu Rafi' said that Sa'd offered him four hundred
Mithqal of gold for a house. Abu Rafi ' said, "If I had
not heard Allah's Apostle saying, 'A neighbor has more
right to be taken care of by his neighbor,' then I would
not have given it to you." Some people said, "If one has
bought a portion of a house and wants to cancel the
right of preemption, he may give it as a present to his
little son and he will not be obliged to take an oath."
Volume
9, Book 86, Number 108:
Narrated Abu Humaid As-Sa'idi:
Allah's Apostle appointed a man
called Ibn Al-Lutabiyya to collect the Zakat from Bani
Sulaim's tribe. When he returned, the Prophet called him
to account. He said (to the Prophet, 'This is your
money, and this has been given to me as a gift." On
that, Allah's Apostle said, "Why didn't you stay in your
father's and mother's house to see whether you will be
given gifts or not if you are telling the truth?" Then
the Prophet addressed us, and after praising and
glorifying Allah, he said: "Amma Ba'du", I employ a man
from among you to manage some affair of what Allah has
put under my custody, and then he comes to me and says,
'This is your money and this has been given to me as a
gift. Why didn't he stay in his father's and mother's
home to see whether he will be given gifts or not? By
Allah, not anyone of you takes a thing unlawfully but he
will meet Allah on the Day of Resurrection, carrying
that thing. I do not want to see any of you carrying a
grunting camel or a mooing cow or a bleating sheep on
meeting Allah." Then the Prophet raised both his hands
till the whiteness of his armpits became visible, and he
said, "O Allah! Haven't I have conveyed (Your Message)?"
The narrator added: My eyes witnessed and my ears heard
(that Hadith).
Volume
9, Book 86, Number 109:
Narrated Abu Rafi':
The Prophet said, "The neighbor
has more right to be taken care of by his neighbor (than
anyone else)." Some men said, "If one wants to buy a
house for 20,000 Dirhams then there is no harm to play a
trick to deprive somebody of preemption by buying it
(just on paper) with 20,000 Dirhams but paying to the
seller only 9,999 Dirhams in cash and then agree with
the seller to pay only one Dinar in cash for the rest of
the price (i.e. 10,001 Dirhams). If the preemptor offers
20,000 Dirhams for the house, he can buy it otherwise he
has no right to buy it (by this trick he got out of
preemption). If the house proves to belong to somebody
else other than the seller, the buyer should take back
from the seller what he has paid, i.e., 9,999 Dirhams
and one Dinar, because if the house proves to belong to
somebody else, so the whole bargain (deal) is unlawful.
If the buyer finds a defect in the house and it does not
belong to somebody other than the seller, the buyer may
return it and receive 20,000 Dirhams (instead of 9999
Dirham plus one Dinar) which he actually paid.' Abu
'Abdullah said, "So that man allows (some people) the
playing of tricks amongst the Muslims (although) the
Prophet said, 'In dealing with Muslims one should not
sell them sick (animals) or bad things or stolen
things."
Volume
9, Book 86, Number 110:
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid:
Abu Rafi' sold a house to Sa'd
bin Malik for four-hundred Mithqal of gold, and said,
"If I had not heard the Prophet saying, 'The neighbor
has more right to be taken care of by his neighbor (than
anyone else),' then I would not have sold it to you."
