Narrated Abu Huraira:
I heard Allah's Apostle saying,
"By Him in Whose Hands my life is! Were it not for some
men who dislike to be left behind and for whom I do not
have means of conveyance, I would not stay away (from
any Holy Battle). I would love to be martyred in Allah's
Cause and come to life and then get, martyred and then
come to life and then get martyred and then get
resurrected and then get martyred.

Abu Huraira said, Allah's
Apostle said, "By Him in Whose Hand my life is, I would
love to fight in Allah's Cause and then get martyred and
then resurrected (come to life) and then get martyred
and then resurrected (come to life) and then get
martyred, and then resurrected (come to life) and then
get martyred and then resurrected (come to life)." Abu
Huraira used to repeat those words three times and I
testify to it with Allah's Oath.

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "If I had
gold equal to the mountain of Uhud, I would love that,

of my debts.''
Volume

Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle said, "If I had
formerly known hat I came to know lately, I would not
have driven the Hadi with me and would have finished the
state of Ihram along with the people when they finished
it
Volume
9, Book 90, Number 336:
Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah:
We were in the company of
Allah's Apostle and we assumed the state of Ihram of
Hajj and arrived at Mecca on the fourth of Dhul-Hijja.
The Prophet ordered us to perform the Tawaf around the
Ka'ba and (Sa'i) between As-Safa and Al-Marwa and use
our lhram just for 'Umra, and finish the state of Ihram
unless we had our Hadi with us. None of us had the Hadi
with him except the Prophet and Talha. 1AIj came from
Yemen and brought the Hadi with him. 'Ali said, 'I had
assumed the state of Ihram with the same intention as
that with which Allah's Apostle had assumed it. The
people said, "How can we proceed to Mina and our male
organs are dribbling?" Allah's Apostle said, "If I had
formerly known what I came to know latterly, I would not
have brought the Hadi, and had there been no Hadi with
me, I would have finished my Ihram." Suraqa (bin Malik)
met the Prophet while he was throwing pebbles at the
Jamrat-al-'Aqaba, and asked, "O Allah's Apostle! Is this
(permitted) for us only?" The Prophet replied. "No, it
is forever" 'Aisha had arrived at Mecca while she was
menstruating, therefore the Prophet ordered her to
perform all the ceremonies of Hajj except the Tawaf
around the Ka'ba, and not to perform her prayers unless
and until she became clean . When they encamped at
Al-Batha, 'Aisha said, "O Allah's Apostle! You are
proceeding after performing both Hajj and 'Umra while I
am proceeding with Hajj only?" So the Prophet ordered
'Abdur-Rahman bin Abu Bakr As-Siddiq to go with her to
At-Tan'im, and so she performed the 'Umra in Dhul-Hijja
after the days of the Hajj.

9, Book 90, Number 337:
Narrated Aisha:
One night the Prophet was
unable to sleep and said, "Would that a righteous man
from my companions guarded me tonight." Suddenly we
heard the clatter of arms, whereupon the Prophet said,
"Who is it?" It was said, "I am Sa'd, O Allah's Apostle!
I have come to guard you." The Prophet then slept so
soundly that we heard him snoring. Abu 'Abdullah said:
'Aisha said: Bilal said, "Would that I but stayed
overnight in a valley with Idhkhir and Jalil (two kinds
of grass) around me (i.e., in Mecca)." Then I told that
to the Prophet .

Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "Not to
wish to be the like except of two men. A man whom Allah
has given the (knowledge of the) Qur'an and he recites
it during the hours of night and day and the one who
wishes says: If I were given the same as this (man) has
been given, I would do what he does, and a man whom
Allah has given wealth and he spends it in the just and
right way, in which case the one who wishes says, 'If I
were given the same as he has been given, I would do
what he does.' " (See Hadith No. 543 and 544, Vol 6)

with us on the day of the battle of Al-Ahzab
(confederates) and I saw that the dust was covering the
whiteness of his abdomen, and he (the Prophet ) was
saying, "(O Allah) ! Without You, we would not have been
guided, nor would we have given in charity, nor would we
have prayed. So (O Allah!) please send tranquility
(Sakina) upon us as they, (the chiefs of the enemy
tribes) have rebelled against us. And if they intend
affliction (i.e. want to frighten us and fight against
us) then we would not (flee but withstand them). And the

outright misbehavior." (See Hadith No. 230, Vol.7)

The Prophet fasted Al-Wisal on
the last days of the month. Some people did the same,
and when the news reached the Prophet he said, "If the
month had been prolonged for me, then I would have
fasted Wisal for such a long time that the most
exaggerating ones among you would have given up their
exaggeration. I am not like you; my Lord always makes me
eat and drink."

Al-Wisal. The people said (to him), "But you fast
Al-'Wisal," He said, "Who among you is like me? When I

when the people refused to give up Al-Wisal, he fasted
Al-Wisal along with them for two days and then they saw
the crescent whereupon the Prophet said, "If the
crescent had not appeared I would have fasted for a
longer period," as if he intended to punish them
herewith.

I asked the Prophet about the
wall (outside the Ka'ba). "Is it regarded as part of the
Ka'ba?" He replied, "Yes." I said, "Then why didn't the
people include it in the Ka'ba?" He said, "(Because)
your people ran short of money." I asked, "Then why is
its gate so high?" He replied, ''Your people did so in
order to admit to it whom they would and forbid whom
they would. Were your people not still close to the
period of ignorance, and were I not afraid that their
hearts might deny my action, then surely I would include
the wall in the Ka'ba and make its gate touch the
ground."
