CHAPTER 6 – HIS^-saww MIRACLES IN ANSWERING TO HIS^-saww CALL REGARDING REVIVAL OF THE DEAD AND SPEAKING TO THEM AND HEALING THE SICK AND OTHER SUCH, ADDITIONAL TO WHAT HAS PRECEDED IN THE CHAPTER OF THE SUMMARY

1- جا، المجالس للمفيد ما، الأمالي للشيخ الطوسي الْمُفِيدُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ بِلَالٍ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَرَفَةَ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ رُشَيْدِ بْنِ خَيْثَمٍ‏ عَنْ عَمِّهِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ الْغَلَابِيِّ قَالَ: جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَقَالَ وَ اللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ أَتَيْنَاكَ وَ مَا لَنَا بَعِيرٌ يَئِطُّ وَ لَا غَنَمٌ يَغِطُّ

‘Al Majalis’ of Al Mufeed, ‘Al Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Al Mufeed, from Ali Bin Bilal, from Al Numan Bin Ahmad, from Ibrahim Bin Arafah, from Ahmad Bin Rasheed Bin Khaysam, from his uncle Saeed, from Muslim Al Ghalaby who said,

A Bedouin came to the Prophet^-saww and said, ‘By Allah^-azwj, O Rasool-Allah^-saww! I have come to you^-saww, when we have neither a camel that moos (sound of a camel) nor a sheep that bleats (sound of a sheep).

أَتَيْنَاكَ يَا خَيْرَ الْبَرِيَّةِ كُلِّهَا		لِتَرْحَمَنَا مِمَّا لَقِينَا مِنَ الْإِزْلِ‏
أَتَيْنَاكَ وَ الْعَذْرَاءُ يَدْمَى لَبَانُهَا		وَ قَدْ شُغِلَتْ أُمُّ الْبَنِينَ‏ عَنِ الطِّفْلِ‏
وَ أَلْقَى بِكَفَّيْهِ الْفَتَى اسْتِكَانَةً		مِنَ الْجُوعِ ضَعْفاً لَا يُمِرُّ وَ لَا يُحْلِي‏
وَ لَا شَيْ‏ءَ مِمَّا يَأْكُلُ النَّاسُ عِنْدَنَا		سِوَى الْحَنْظَلِ الْعَامِيِّ وَ الْعِلْهِزِ الْفَسْلِ‏
وَ لَيْسَ لَنَا إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ فِرَارُنَا		وَ أَيْنَ فِرَارُ النَّاسِ إِلَّا إِلَى الرُّسْلِ‏

Then he prosed saying, ‘We came to you, O best of all creation, so that you may have mercy upon us for the hardship that has befallen us. ‘We came to you^-saww while the maiden’s breast was bleeding, and the mother of the children was preoccupied with tending to the infant. The young boy has cast down his hands in submission, weakened by hunger, unable either to swallow or to find sweetness. There is nothing that the people eat among us, except the bitter colocynth and the wretched Al Ihliz. And we have no refuge except in you^-saww, and where else can people flee except to the Messengers^-as?’

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لِأَصْحَابِهِ إِنَّ هَذَا الْأَعْرَابِيَّ يَشْكُو قِلَّةَ الْمَطَرِ وَ قَحْطاً شَدِيداً ثُمَّ قَامَ يَجُرُّ رِدَاءَهُ حَتَّى صَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَ أَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ فَكَانَ فِيمَا حَمِدَهُ بِهِ أَنْ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي عَلَا فِي السَّمَاءِ فَكَانَ عَالِياً وَ فِي الْأَرْضِ قَرِيباً دَانِياً أَقْرَبَ إِلَيْنَا مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ

Rasool-Allah^-saww said to his^-saww companions: ‘This Bedouin is complaining of the scarcity of rain and severe drought’. Then he^-saww stood gathering his^-saww cloak until he^-saww ascended the Pulpit, and praised Allah^-azwj and extolled Him^-azwj, and it was among what he^-saww praised Him^-azwj with that he^-saww said: ‘The Praise is for Allah^-azwj Who is Lofty in the sky and will always be lofty, and in the earth is near, close by, closer to us than the jugular vein’.

وَ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ اسْقِنَا غَيْثاً مُغِيثاً مَرِيئاً مَرِيعاً غَدَقاً طَبَقاً عَاجِلًا غَيْرَ رَائِثٍ نَافِعاً غَيْرَ ضَارٍّ تَمْلَأُ بِهِ الضَّرْعَ وَ تُنْبِتُ بِهِ الزَّرْعَ وَ تُحْيِي بِهِ الْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا

And he^-saww raised his^-saww hands towards the sky and said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Quench us with a downpour of rain, welcoming, pleasant, fresh, layered, now without delay, beneficial without harm, the farms can be filled with it and the plants can grow, and the ground can be revived with it after its death’.

فَمَا رَدَّ يَدَهُ إِلَى نَحْرِهِ حَتَّى أَحْدَقَ السَّحَابُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ كَالْإِكْلِيلِ وَ أَلْقَتِ السَّمَاءُ بِأَرْوَاقِهَا وَ جَاءَ أَهْلُ الْبِطَاحِ يَصِيحُونَ‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الْغَرَقَ الْغَرَقَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص اللَّهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَ لَا عَلَيْنَا فَانْجَابَ السَّحَابُ عَنِ السَّمَاءِ

He^-saww had not returned his^-saww hands to his^-saww throat until the clouds rumbled in Al-Medina like the anklet and the sky threw off its curtains and the people of Al-Bat’ha came over shouting, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-azwj, the drowning, the drowning!’ Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Around us and not upon us!’ And the clouds scattered in the sky.

فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ قَالَ لِلَّهِ دَرُّ أَبِي طَالِبٍ لَوْ كَانَ حَيّاً لَقَرَّتْ عَيْنَاهُ مَنْ يُنْشِدُنَا قَوْلَهُ فَقَامَ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ عَسَى أَرَدْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏

Rasool-Allah^-saww chuckled and said: ‘For Allah^-azwj is the house of Abu Talib^-asws. If he^-asws were alive, his^-asws eyes would have been delighted. Who can prose his^-asws words?’ Umar stood up and said, ‘Perhaps O Rasool-Allah^-saww it is meant, ‘(poem) And he^-asws did not load upon a she-camel above its back, clear and full guarantee from Muhammad^-saww’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لَيْسَ هَذَا مِنْ قَوْلِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ هَذَا مِنْ قَوْلِ حَسَّانَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ

Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘This isn’t from the words of Abu Talib^-asws. This is from the words of Hasan Bin Sabit (a poet)’.

فَقَامَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَقَالَ كَأَنَّكَ أَرَدْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏

وَ أَبْيَضَ يُسْتَسْقَى الْغَمَامُ بِوَجْهِهِ‏		رَبِيعُ الْيَتَامَى عِصْمَةٌ لِلْأَرَامِلِ‏
تَلُوذُ بِهِ الْهُلَّاكُ مِنْ آلِ هَاشِمٍ‏		فَهُمْ عِنْدَهُ فِي نِعْمَةٍ وَ فَوَاضِلِ‏
كَذَبْتُمْ وَ بَيْتِ اللَّهِ يُبْزَى‏ مُحَمَّدٌ		وَ لَمَّا نُمَاصِعْ دُونَهُ وَ نُقَاتِلْ‏
وَ نُسْلِمُهُ حَتَّى نُصَرَّعَ حَوْلَهُ‏		وَ نَذْهَلَ عَنْ أَبْنَائِنَا وَ الْحَلَائِلِ‏

Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! It is as if you^-saww meant, ‘And he^-saww is the radiant one whose face is used to seek rain from the clouds, spring of sustenance for orphans and the protection of widows. The distressed ones from the family of Hashim^-as seek refuge in him^-saww, and with him^-saww they are in blessings and abundant favours. By the House of Allah^-azwj you have lied! Muhammad^-saww will never be overcome, while we have not yet fought and struggled against those who oppose him^-saww. We shall surrender him^-saww to no one until we are struck down around him^-saww, and we become heedless of our sons and our wives’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَجَلْ

Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘Yes’.

فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي كِنَانَةَ فَقَالَ‏

لَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَ الْحَمْدُ مِمَّنْ شَكَرَ		سُقِينَا بِوَجْهِ النَّبِيِّ الْمَطَرَ
دَعَا اللَّهَ خَالِقَهُ دَعْوَةً		وَ أَشْخَصَ مِنْهُ إِلَيْهِ الْبَصَرُ
فَلَمْ يَكُ إِلَّا كَإِلْقَى الرِّدَاءِ		وَ أَسْرَعَ حَتَّى أَتَانَا الدُّرَرُ
دُفَاقُ الْعَزَائِلِ جَمُّ الْبُعَاقِ‏		أَغَاثَ بِهِ اللَّهُ عُلْيَا مُضَرَ
فَكَانَ كَمَا قَالَهُ عَمُّهُ‏		أَبُو طَالِبٍ ذَا رُوَاءٍ أَغَرَّ
بِهِ اللَّهُ يَسْقِي صَيُّوبَ الْغَمَامِ‏		فَهَذَا الْعِيَانُ وَ ذَاكَ الْخَبَرُ

A man from the clan of Kanana stood up and he said, ‘To You^-azwj belongs all Praise, and praise belongs to the one who gives thanks. We were given rain because of the Prophet^-as. He^-saww supplicated to Allah^-azwj his^-saww Creator, with a single supplication, and he^-saww directed his^-saww gaze towards Him^-azwj. Then it was no more than the casting off of a garment, and the rain hastened towards us in abundant streams. Pouring forth with great force, and overflowing with abundant rain. Through him^-saww Allah^-azwj Brought relief to the noblest of Muzar (tribe). Thus he^-saww was just as his^-saww uncle Abu Talib^-as had described him^-saww: He^-saww is one of radiant countenance and splendid appearance. Through him^-saww Allah^-azwj Causes the pouring rain of the clouds to descend’’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا كِنَانِيُّ بَوَّأَكَ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ بَيْتٍ قُلْتَهُ بَيْتاً فِي الْجَنَّةِ

Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘O Kanany! May Allah^-azwj Recompense you with every ‘Bayt’ (couplet), with a ‘Bayt’ (House) in Paradise’’.[1]

‘From Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws having said: ‘The Prophet^-saww called me^-asws and I^-asws had eye pain. He^-saww applied his^-saww saliva in my^-asws eyes and tightened the turban upon my^-asws head and said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Remove from him the hot and the cold’. After that, I^-asws neither felt hot nor cold’’.[2]

‘Al Amaali’ of the sheykh Al TusiAl Mufeed, from Al Husayn Bin Muhammad Al Tammar, from Muhammad Bin Al Qasim, from Musa Bin Muhammad Al Khayat, from Is’haq Bin Ibrahim Al Khurasany, from Shareek, from Abdullah Bin Umar, from Abu Salmah, from Abu Hureyra who said,

‘We were hit by the thirst during the Hudeybiyyah (treaty), and we went to the Prophet^-saww. He^-saww extended his^-saww hands with the supplication and the clouds gathered and the rains came, and we were quenched from it’’.[3]

‘Basaair Al Darajaat’ – Ayoub Bin Nuh, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Hamad Bin Abu Talha, from Abu Awf,

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws, he (the narrator) said: ‘I went to him^-asws and he^-asws relaxed kindly towards me and said: ‘A blind man came to the Prophet^-saww and said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Supplicate to Allah^-azwj to Return my sight unto me’. He^-asws said: ‘He^-saww supplicated to Allah^-azwj, and his sight was returned to him.

ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ آخَرُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ادْعُ اللَّهَ لِي أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ بَصَرِي قَالَ فَقَالَ الْجَنَّةُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ أَوْ يُرَدُّ عَلَيْكَ بَصَرُكَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ إِنَّ ثَوَابَهَا الْجَنَّةُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ أَكْرَمُ مِنْ أَنْ يَبْتَلِيَ عَبْدَهُ الْمُؤْمِنَ بِذَهَابِ بَصَرِهِ ثُمَّ لَا يُثِيبُهُ الْجَنَّةَ

Then another one came up and said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Supplicate to Allah^-azwj for me to Return my sight to me’. He^-saww said: ‘Is Paradise more beloved to you or the return of your sight to you?’ He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-azwj, and its Reward is Paradise?’ He^-saww said: ‘Allah^-azwj is more Benevolent that to Afflict His^-azwj Momin servant with the removal of his sight, then not Rewarding him with Paradise’’.[4]

‘Basaair Al Darajaat’ – Al-Abbas Bin Marouf, from Ali Bin Mahziyar, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Ali Ibn Ismail Al Maysami, from Kareem who said, ‘I heard someone reporting and he said,

‘Rasool-Allah^-saww was seated and mentioned the meat and its nibbling to him^-saww. So, a man from the Helpers stood up and there was a young goat for him, and he ended up to his wife and said, ‘Is there any gain for you regarding me?’ She said, ‘And what is that?’ He said, ‘I heard Rasool-Allah^-saww desiring the meat’. She said, ‘Take it’, and there did not happen to be for them apart from it.

وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَعْرِفُهَا فَلَمَّا جَاءَ بِهَا ذُبِحَتْ وَ شُوِيَتْ ثُمَّ وَضَعَهَا النَّبِيُّ ص فَقَالَ لَهُمْ كُلُوا وَ لَا تَكْسِرُوا عَظْماً قَالَ فَرَجَعَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ وَ إِذَا هِيَ تَلْعَبُ عَلَى بَابِهِ‏

And Rasool-Allah^-saww knew it. When he came with it, having slaughtered it and grilled it, then the Prophet^-saww placed it and said to them: ‘Eat and do not break any bone(s)’. The Helper returned (home), and there it was playing around at his door’’.[5]

‘Basaair Al Darajaat’ – Ibrahim Bin Hashim, from Ali Bin Asbat, from Bakr Bin Junah, from a man,

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘When (Syeda) Fatima^-asws Bint Asad^-as passed away, Amir Al-Momineen^-asws came to the Prophet^-saww and Rasool-Allah^-saww said to him^-asws: ‘O Abu Al-Hassan^-asws! What is the matter with you^-asws?’ He^-asws said: ‘My^-asws mother^-asws passed away’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘And (she^-asws was) my^-saww mother (as well), by Allah^-azwj!’ Then he^-saww cried and said: ‘O Mother^-asws!’

ثُمَّ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ ع هَذَا قَمِيصِي فَكَفِّنْهَا فِيهِ وَ هَذَا رِدَائِي فَكَفِّنْهَا فِيهِ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتُمْ فَآذِنُونِي فَلَمَّا أُخْرِجَتْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا النَّبِيُّ ص صَلَاةً لَمْ يُصَلِّ قَبْلَهَا وَ لَا بَعْدَهَا عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِثْلِهَا ثُمَّ نَزَلَ عَلَى قَبْرِهَا فَاضْطَجَعَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا يَا فَاطِمَةُ قَالَتْ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ

Then he^-saww said to Ali^-asws: ‘This is my^-saww shirt, enshroud her^-asws in it, and this is my^-saww cloak, enshroud her^-asws in it, so when you^-asws are free then call me^-saww’. When she^-asws was brought-out, the Prophet^-saww prayed upon her^-asws with such a Salat he^-saww had not prayed the like of it, neither before it nor after it upon anyone. Then he^-saww descended into her^-asws grave and lied down in it, then said to her^-asws: ‘O Fatima^-asws!’ She^-asws said, ‘At your^-saww service, O Rasool-Allah^-saww!’

فَقَالَ فَهَلْ وَجَدْتِ مَا وَعَدَ رَبُّكِ حَقّاً قَالَتْ نَعَمْ فَجَزَاكَ اللَّهُ خَيْراً وَ طَالَتْ مُنَاجَاتُهُ فِي الْقَبْرِ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ صَنَعْتَ بِهَا شَيْئاً فِي تَكْفِينِكَ إِيَّاهَا ثِيَابَكَ وَ دُخُولِكَ فِي قَبْرِهَا وَ طُولِ مُنَاجَاتِكَ وَ طُولِ صَلَاتِكَ مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ صَنَعْتَهُ بِأَحَدٍ قَبْلَهَا

He^-saww said: ‘Have you^-asws found what your^-asws Lord^-azwj Promised you^-asws as being true?’ She^-asws said, ‘Yes’, may Allah^-azwj Recompense you^-saww goodly’, and she^-asws prolonged the whispering to him^-saww in the grave. When he^-saww came out, it was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! You^-saww have done something with her^-asws regarding your^-saww enshrouding her^-asws and your entering into her^-asws grave and your^-saww prolonged whispering and your^-saww prolonged Salat, we have not seen you^-saww doing it with anyone else before her^-asws’.

قَالَ أَمَّا تَكْفِينِي إِيَّاهَا فَإِنِّي لَمَّا قُلْتُ لَهَا يُعْرَضُ النَّاسُ يَوْمَ يُحْشَرُونَ مِنْ قُبُورِهِمْ‏ فَصَاحَتْ وَ قَالَتْ وَا سَوْأَتَاهْ فَلَبِسْتُهَا ثِيَابِي وَ سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ فِي صَلَاتِي عَلَيْهَا أَنْ لَا يَبْلَى أَكْفَانُهَا حَتَّى تَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَأَجَابَنِي إِلَى ذَلِكَ

He^-saww said: ‘As for my^-saww enshrouding her^-asws, so when I^-saww had said to her^-asws: ‘The people would be exposed on the Day they are Resurrected from their graves’, so she^-asws had sighed and said, ‘O the evil of it!’ Therefore, I^-saww clothed her^-asws in my^-saww clothes and asked Allah^-azwj during my^-saww Salat upon her^-saww not to decay her^-asws shroud until she^-asws enters Paradise. He^-azwj Answered me^-saww to that.

And as for my^-saww entering into her^-asws grave, when I^-saww had said to her^-asws: ‘When the deceased enters into his grave and the people leave from him, two Angels enter unto him – Munkar and Nakeer, and they question him’, she had said, ‘O I seek Help with Allah^-azwj!’ Therefore, I^-saww did not cease to ask my^-saww Lord^-azwj in her^-asws grave until a doorway was opened for her^-asws, from her^-asws grave to Paradise, and there was Made for her^-asws to be a garden from the Gardens of Paradise’’.[6]

7- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ الثُّمَالِيِّ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ شَيْ‏ءٍ أَنْفِي عَنِّي بِهِ مَا قَدْ خَامَرَ نَفْسِي قَالَ ذَلِكَ لَكَ قُلْتُ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنِ الْأَوَّلِ وَ الثَّانِي فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِمَا لَعَائِنُ اللَّهِ كِلَاهُمَا مَضَيَا وَ اللَّهِ كَافِرَيْنِ مُشْرِكَيْنِ بِاللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Abu Hamza Al Sumaly who said,

‘I said to Ali^-asws Bin Al-Husayn^-asws, ‘Can I ask you^-asws about something to be negated from me by it what has engrossed my soul?’ He^-asws said: ‘That is up to you’. I said, ‘I ask you^-asws about the first and the second (Abu Bakr & Umar)’. He^-asws said: ‘Upon them both be the Curse of Allah^-azwj. By Allah^-azwj! They both died as Kafirs (disbelievers) and Mushriks (associators) with Allah^-azwj the Magnificent’.

قُلْتُ فَالْأَئِمَّةُ مِنْكُمْ يُحْيُونَ الْمَوْتَى وَ يُبْرِءُونَ الْأَكْمَهَ وَ الْأَبْرَصَ وَ يَمْشُونَ عَلَى الْمَاءِ فَقَالَ ع مَا أَعْطَى اللَّهُ نَبِيّاً شَيْئاً إِلَّا وَ قَدْ أَعْطَى مُحَمَّداً ص وَ أَعْطَاهُ مَا لَمْ يُعْطِهِمْ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُمْ

I said, ‘Are the Imams^-asws from you^-asws reviving the dead, and curing the blind, and the leper and walking upon the water?’ He^-asws said: ‘Allah^-azwj did not Give anything to any Prophet^-as except that He^-azwj had Given it to Muhammad^-saww, and (in addition) Gave him^-saww what He^-azwj had not Given them^-as and (and that what) did not happen to be with them^-as.

Whatever was with Rasool-Allah^-saww, Amir Al-Momineen^-asws was Given it, then Al-Hassan^-asws, then Al-Husayn^-asws, then Imam^-asws after an Imam^-asws up to the Day of Qiyamah, along with the increase which occurs during every year, and during every month, and during every day.

إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص كَانَ قَاعِداً فَذَكَرَ اللَّحْمَ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَى امْرَأَتِهِ وَ كَانَ لَهَا عَنَاقٌ فَقَالَ لَهَا هَلْ لَكِ فِي غَنِيمَةٍ قَالَتْ وَ مَا ذَلِكَ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَشْتَهِي اللَّحْمَ فَنَذْبَحُ لَهُ عَنْزَنَا هَذَا قَالَتْ خُذْهَا شَأْنَكَ وَ إِيَّاهَا وَ لَمْ يَمْلِكَا غَيْرَهَا وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ يَعْرِفُهُمَا

Rasool-Allah^-saww was seated and mentioned the meat, so a man from the Helpers stood up and went to his wife, and there was a young goat for her. He said to her, ‘Is there any gain for you regarding me?’ She said, ‘And what is that?’ He said, ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww desires the meat, so let us slaughter this goat for him^-saww’. She said, ‘Take it, it is your concern and its’, and they did not own anything other than it, and Rasool-Allah^-saww knew of that.

فَذَبَحَهَا وَ سَمَطَهَا وَ شَوَاهَا وَ حَمَلَهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَوَضَعَهَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَجَمَعَ أَهْلَ بَيْتِهِ وَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ كُلُوا وَ لَا تَكْسِرُوا لَهَا عَظْماً وَ أَكَلَ مَعَهُمُ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ فَلَمَّا شَبِعُوا وَ تَفَرَّقُوا رَجَعَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ وَ إِذَا الْعَنَاقُ تَلْعَبُ عَلَى بَابِهِ

He slaughtered it and smoothed it and grilled it, and carried it to Rasool-Allah^-saww and placed it in front of him^-saww. He^-saww gathered his^-saww family members and the ones he^-saww loved from his^-saww companions and said: ‘Eat and do not break any of its bones’, and the Helper ate with them. When they had been satiated and separated, the Helper returned, and there was the goat playing by his door.

وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُ ص دَعَا غَزَالًا فَأَتَى فَأَمَرَ بِذَبْحِهِ فَفَعَلُوا وَ شَوَوْهُ وَ أَكَلُوا لَحْمَهُ وَ لَمْ يَكْسِرُوا لَهُ عَظْماً ثُمَّ أَمَرَ أَنْ يُوضَعَ جِلْدُهُ وَ يُطْرَحَ عِظَامُهُ وَسْطَ الْجِلْدِ فَقَامَ الْغَزَالُ حَيّاً يَرْعَى

And it is reported that he^-saww called a gazelle, so it came. He^-saww instructed for it to be slaughtered. They did so and grilled it and ate its meat and did not break any bone of it. Then he^-saww instructed that its skin be placed and its bones be dropped in the middle of the skin. The gazelle stood up alive, grazing. [7]

‘Ilam Al-Wara’, ‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – From the miracles of the Prophet^-saww is that a woman came with a child of hers hoping for Blessing if he^-saww were to touch him and supplicate for him, and there was an illness in his head. He^-saww pitied her, and the pity was his^-saww characteristic. He^-saww caressed his head with his^-saww hand, and his hair stood up, and his illness was cured.

فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ أَهْلَ الْيَمَامَةِ فَأَتَوْا مُسَيْلَمَةَ بِصَبِيٍّ فَسَأَلُوهُ فَمَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ فَصَلِعَ وَ بَقِيَ نَسْلُهُ إِلَى يَوْمِنَا هَذَا صُلْعاً

That reached the people of Al-Yamama. They came to Musaylama (false prophet) with a child and asked him. He caressed his head and he (the child) became bald, and his offspring have remained bald up to this day of ours. [8]

Become alive by the Permission of Allah^-azwj!’ The child came out saying, ‘At your^-saww service O Rasool-Allah^-saww and your^-saww assistance’. He^-saww said: ‘Your parents have become Muslims and if you so like, I^-saww can return you to them’. She said, ‘There is no need for me regarding them, and I have found with Allah^-azwj what is better than them.[11]

We said: ’We could hear the sound of a conversation, but we could not see anyone!’

When that appointed time came, we prayed the morning Salat and said, ‘We do not see anything!’ We then prayed the Al-Zohr Salat, but we still saw nothing. Then, when we prayed Al-Asr Salat, a cloud arose, and we were given rain. We rejoiced, and he^-saww said: ‘What is the matter with you?’ We said: “Because of what the Angel said.” He^-saww said: “Yes, exactly like this, so preserve this!’[40]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that Rasool-Allah^-saww sent a message to a Jews regarding a loan he^-saww had asked him. He did so. Then the Jew came to him^-saww and he said, ‘Did your^-saww need come (fulfilled)?’ He^-saww said: ‘Yes’. He said, ‘Send for me regarding whatever you^-saww want and I will not prevent anything you^-saww want’. The Prophet^-saww said to him: ‘May Allah^-azwj Cause your beauty to be constant’. The Jew lived for eighty years and there was not seen any white hair in his head’’.[41]

42- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُ فِي وَقْعَةِ تَبُوكَ أَصَابَ النَّاسَ عَطَشٌ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ دَعَوْتَ اللَّهَ لَسَقَانَا فَقَالَ ص لَوْ دَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ لَسُقِيتُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ادْعُ لَنَا لِيَسْقِيَنَا فَدَعَا فَسَالَتِ الْأَوْدِيَةُ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that during the event (military expedition) of Tabuk, the people were hit by thirst. They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! If only you^-saww would supplicate to Allah^-azwj to Quench us?’ He^-saww said: ‘If I^-saww were to supplicate to Allah^-azwj, He^-azwj will Quench (us)’. They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Supplicate to Allah^-azwj for us to Quench us’. He^-saww supplicated and the valleys were flooded.

فَإِذَا قَوْمٌ عَلَى شَفِيرِ الْوَادِي يَقُولُونَ مُطِرْنَا بِنَوْءِ الذِّرَاعِ وَ بِنَوْءِ كَذَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَ لَا تَرَوْنَ فَقَالَ خَالِدٌ أَ لَا أَضْرِبُ أَعْنَاقَهُمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لَا يَقُولُونَ‏ هَكَذَا وَ هُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ أَنْزَلَهُ

There was a group of people upon the edge of the valley saying, ‘We were rained upon due to the star Al-Zara’a, and such and such star’. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘Are you seeing this?’ Khalid said, ‘Shall I strike off their necks?’ Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘No. They are saying like this, and they know that Allah^-azwj Sent it’’.[42]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – From Anas (a well-known fabricator) said,

‘The Prophet^-saww said: ‘There will be entering unto you all from this door, the best of the successors^-asws and the closest of the people in status from the Prophets^-as’. Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws entered. Rasool-Allah^-saww said to Ali^-asws: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Remove from him^-asws the heat and the cold’. He^-asws did not find it until he^-asws passed away, and he^-asws used to go out in a shirt during the winter’’.[43]

44- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِبَعْضِ الْأَنْصَارِ عَنَاقٌ فَذَبَحَهَا وَ قَالَ لِأَهْلِهِ اطْبُخُوا بَعْضاً وَ اشْوَوْا بَعْضاً فَلَعَلَّ رَسُولَنَا يُشَرِّفُنَا وَ يَحْضُرُ بَيْتَنَا اللَّيْلَةَ وَ يُفْطِرُ عِنْدَنَا وَ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَ كَانَ لَهُ ابْنَانِ صَغِيرَانِ وَ كَانَا يَرَيَانِ أَبَاهُمَا يَذْبَحُ الْعَنَاقَ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِلْآخَرِ تَعَالَ حَتَّى أَذْبَحَكَ فَأَخَذَ السِّكِّينَ وَ ذَبَحَهُ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that there was a young goat for one of the Helpers, and he slaughtered it and said to his wife, ‘Cook part of it, and grill part of it, for perhaps our Rasool^-saww will honour us and attend our house tonight and break Fast with us’, and he went to the Masjid, and there were two young sons for him, and they had both seen their father slaughtering the young goat. One of them said to the other, ‘Come until I slaughter you’. He grabbed the knife and slaughtered him.

فَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُمَا الْوَالِدَةُ صَاحَتْ فَعَدَى الذَّابِحُ فَهَرَبَ فَوَقَعَ مِنَ الْغُرْفَةِ فَمَاتَ فَسَتَرَتْهُمَا وَ طَبَخَتْ وَ هَيَّأَتِ الطَّعَامَ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ص دَارَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ نَزَلَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع وَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَحْضِرْ وَلَدَيْهِ فَخَرَجَ أَبُوهُمَا يَطْلُبُهُمَا فَقَالَتْ وَالِدَتُهُمَا لَيْسَا حَاضِرَيْنِ فَرَجَعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص وَ أَخْبَرَهُ بِغَيْبَتِهِمَا

When the father saw them, he shouted, and the slaughterer fled and fell down from the room and died. He hid them both and cooked and prepared the meal. When the Prophet^-saww entered the house of the Helper, Jibraeel^-as descended and said: ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Make his two sons be present’. Their father went out seeking them. Their mother said, ‘They are not present’. He returned to the Prophet^-saww and informed him^-saww of their being absent.

فَقَالَ لَا بُدَّ مِنْ إِحْضَارِهِمَا فَخَرَجَ إِلَى أُمِّهِمَا فَأَطْلَعَتْهُ عَلَى حَالِهِمَا فَأَخَذَهُمَا إِلَى مَجْلِسِ النَّبِيِّ ص فَدَعَا اللَّهَ فَأَحْيَاهُمَا وَ عَاشَا سِنِينَ

He^-saww said: ‘There is no escape from their being present’. He went to their mother and she notified him of their state, and he grabbed them and brought them to the seat of the Prophet^-saww. He^-saww supplicated to Allah^-azwj and revived them both and they lived for years’’.[44]

45- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب الْوَاقِدِيُ‏ كَتَبَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِلَى بَنِي حَارِثَةَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ فَأَخَذُوا كِتَابَ النَّبِيِّ ص فَغَسَلُوهُ وَ رَقَّعُوا بِهِ أَسْفَلَ دَلْوِهِمْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص مَا لَهُمْ أَذْهَبَ اللَّهُ عُقُولَهُمْ فَقَالَ فَهُمْ أَهْلُ رِعْدَةٍ وَ عَجَلَةٍ وَ كَلَامٍ مُخْتَبِطٍ وَ سَفَهٍ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – Al Waqidy –

‘The Prophet^-saww wrote to the clan of Harisah Bin Amro and invited them to Al-Islam. They took the letter of the Prophet^-saww and washed it off, and they threw it in the bottom of their water bucket. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘What is the matter with them. May Allah^-azwj Remove their intellects’. He said, ‘They are the people of trembling and haste, and their speech is harmful and foolish’.

وَ خَافَ النَّبِيُّ ص مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَدَخَلَ بَيْنَ الْأَرَاكِ فَنَفَرَتِ‏ الْإِبِلُ فَجَاءَ أَبُو ثَرْوَانَ إِلَيْهِ وَ قَالَ مَنْ أَنْتَ قَالَ رَجُلٌ أَسْتَأْنِسُ إِلَى إِبِلِكَ قَالَ أَرَاكَ صَاحِبَ قُرَيْشٍ قَالَ أَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ قَالَ قُمْ وَ اللَّهِ لَا تَصْلُحُ إِبِلٌ أَنْتَ فِيهَا

And the Prophet^-saww feared from Quraysh. He^-saww entered the pen and the camels fled. Abu Sarwan came to him^-saww and said, ‘Who are you^-saww?’ He^-saww said: ‘A man comforting to your camels’. He said, ‘Are you^-saww in charge of Quraysh?’ He^-saww said: ‘I^-saww am Muhammad^-saww’. He said, ‘Stand up! The camels are not correct while you^-saww are among them’.

فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص اللَّهُمَّ أَطِلْ شِقَاهُ وَ بَقَاهُ قَالَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُهُ شَيْخاً كَبِيراً يَتَمَنَّى الْمَوْتَ فَلَا يَمُوتُ فَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَهُ الْقَوْمُ هَذَا بِدَعْوَةِ النَّبِيِّ ص

The Prophet^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Prolong his misery and his remaining (alive)’. Abdul Malik said, ‘I saw him as an aged old man wishing for death, but he was not dying, and the people were saying, ‘This is due to the supplication of the Prophet^-saww’.

وَ لَمَّا كَلَّمَ النَّبِيُّ ص فِي سَبْيِ هَوَازِنَ رَدُّوا عَلَيْهِمْ سَبْيَهُمْ إِلَّا رَجُلَيْنِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص خَيِّرُوهُمَا

When the Prophet^-saww spoke regarding the captives of Hawazin, their captives returned to them except for two men. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Give them the choice!’

أَمَّا أَحَدُهُمَا قَالَ إِنِّي أَتْرُكُهُ وَ أَمَّا الْآخَرُ فَقَالَ لَا أَتْرُكُهُ فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ الرَّجُلُ

As for one of them, he said, ‘I will release him!’, and as for the other, he said, ‘I will not release him!’

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص اللَّهُمَّ أَخِسَّ سَهْمَهُ فَكَانَ يَمُرُّ بِالْجَارِيَةِ الْبِكْرِ وَ الْغُلَامِ فَيَدَعُهُ حَتَّى مَرَّ بِعَجُوزٍ فَقَالَ إِنِّي آخُذُ هَذِهِ فَإِنَّهَا أُمُّ حَيٍّ فَيُفَادُونَهَا مِنِّي بِمَا قَدَرُوا عَلَيْهِ

When the man turned back, the Prophet^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Make his arrow fall short!’ So, he would pass by a young unmarried woman and a boy and leave them, but when he came upon an old woman, he said, ‘I will take this one, for she is the mother of a tribe. They will ransom her from me with whatever they are able to offer’.

فَقَالَ عَطِيَّةُ السَّعْدِيُّ عَجُوزٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ سَيِّبَةٌ بَتْرَاءُ مَا لَهَا أَحَدٌ فَلَمَّا رَأَى أَنَّهُ لَا يَعْرِضُهَا أَحَدٌ تَرَكَهَا

Atiyyah Al Sa‘di said, ‘An old woman, O Rasool-Allah^-saww? She is a helpless captive, with no one belonging to her!’ When he^-saww saw that no one was coming forward to claim her, he^-saww left her’.

وَ فِي حَدِيثِ جَابِرٍ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ قَالَتْ أُرِيدُ مَا تُرِيدُ الْمُسْلِمَةُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص عَلَيَّ بِزَوْجِهَا فَجِي‏ءَ بِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا أَ تُبْغِضِينَهُ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ وَ الَّذِي أَكْرَمَكَ بِالْحَقِّ فَقَالَ أَدْنِيَا رَءُوسَكُمَا فَأَدْنَيَا فَوَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهَا عَلَى وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَلِّفْ بَيْنَهُمَا وَ حَبِّبْ أَحَدَهُمَا إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ

And in a Hadeeth of Jabir, ‘A Woman from the Muslims said, ‘I want what a Muslim woman wants’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘To me with her husband’. They came with him. He^-saww said to him regarding that, then said to her: ‘Do you hate him?’ She said, ‘Yes, by the One^-azwj Who Honoured you^-saww with the Truth’. He^-saww said: ‘Bring your heads closer’. They drew closer, and he^-saww placed her forehead upon his face, then said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Synthesise between them and make one to love his companion’.

ثُمَّ رَآهَا النَّبِيُّ ص تَحْمِلُ الْأَدَمَ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهَا وَ عَرَفَتْهُ فَرَمَتِ الْأَدَمَ ثُمَّ قَبَّلَتْ رِجْلَيْهِ فَقَالَ ص كَيْفَ أَنْتِ وَ زَوْجَكِ فَقَالَتْ وَ الَّذِي أَكْرَمَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا فِي الزَّمَانِ أَحَدٌ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْهُ

Then (sometime later), the Prophet^-saww saw her carrying sauce upon her neck, and she recognised him, so she threw the sauce then kissed his^-saww feet. He^-saww said: ‘How are you and your husband?’ She said, ‘By the One^-azwj Who Honoured you^-saww with the Truth! There is no one in the times more beloved to me than him’.

وَ كَانَ عِنْدَ خَدِيجَةَ امْرَأَةٌ عَمْيَاءُ فَقَالَ ص لِتَكُونَنَّ عَيْنَاكِ صَحِيحَتَيْنِ فَصَحَّتَا فَقَالَتْ خَدِيجَةُ هَذَا دُعَاءٌ مُبَارَكٌ فَقَالَ‏ وَ ما أَرْسَلْناكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً

And there was a blind woman in the presence of (Syeda) Khadeeja^-asws. He^-saww said: ‘Let your eyes become healthy, clear’. (Syeda) Khadeeja^-asws said: ‘This is a Blessed supplication’. He^-azwj Said: ‘And We did not Send you except as a mercy to the worlds [21:107]’.

وَ دَعَا ص لِقَيْصَرَ فَقَالَ ثَبَّتَ اللَّهُ مُلْكَهُ كَمَا كَانَ وَ دَعَا عَلَى كِسْرَى مَزَّقَ اللَّهُ مُلْكَهُ فَكَانَ كَمَا قَالَ

And he^-saww supplicated for Caesar, and said: ‘May Allah^-azwj Affirm his kingdom just as it used to be’. And he^-saww supplicated against Chosroe: ‘May Allah^-azwj Shred his kingdom’, and it happened just as he^-saww had said’.

جَعْفَرُ بْنُ نُسْطُورَ الرُّومِيُ‏ كُنْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ص فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ فَسَقَطَ مِنْ يَدِهِ السَّوْطُ فَنَزَلْتُ عَنْ جَوَادِي فَرَفَعْتُهُ وَ دَفَعْتُهُ إِلَيْهِ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيَّ وَ قَالَ يَا جَعْفَرُ مَدَّ اللَّهُ فِي عُمُرِكَ مَدّاً فَعَاشَ ثَلَاثَمِائَةٍ وَ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً

Ja’far Bin Nastour Al-Rumy (said), ‘We were with the Prophet^-saww in the military expedition of Tabuk and the whip fell from his^-saww hand and landed of my horse. I lifted it and handed it over to him^-saww. He^-saww looked at me and said: ‘O Ja’far! May Allah^-azwj Extended in your life with an extension. He lived for three hundred and twenty years.

وَ قَوْلُهُ لِلنَّابِغَةِ وَ قَدْ مَدَحَهُ لَا يَفْضُضِ اللَّهُ فَاكَ فَعَاشَ مِائَةً وَ ثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً كُلَّمَا سَقَطَتْ لَهُ سِنٌّ نَبَتَتْ لَهُ أُخْرَى أَحْسَنُ مِنْهَا ذَكَرَهُ الْمُرْتَضَى فِي الْغُرَرِ

And his^-saww words to Al-Nabagah, and he^-saww had praised him: ‘May Allah^-azwj silver-plate your mouth’. He lived for one hundred and thirty years. Every time a year dropped for him, another one grew better than it. Al-Murtaza mentioned it in (the book) Al-Gurrar’’.

وَ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْحَمِقِ سَقَى النَّبِيَّ ص لَبَناً فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَمْتِعْهُ بِشَبَابِهِ فَمَرَّتْ عَلَيْهِ ثَمَانُونَ سَنَةً لَمْ يَرَ شَعْرَةً بَيْضَاءَ

And from Maymouna, ‘Amro Bin Al-Hamaq quenched the Prophet^-saww some milk. He^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Let him enjoy his youth’. Eighty years passed by; he did not see any white hair.

وَ مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ بِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ وَ هُوَ يَصْنَعُ شَيْئاً مِنْ طِينٍ مِنْ لُعَبِ‏ الصِّبْيَانِ فَقَالَ‏ مَا تَصْنَعُ بِهَذَا قَالَ أَبِيعُهُ قَالَ مَا تَصْنَعُ بِثَمَنِهِ قَالَ أَشْتَرِي رُطَباً فَآكُلُهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُ فِي صَفْقَةِ يَمِينِهِ

And the Prophet^-saww passed by Abdullah Bin Ja’far, and he was making something from clay for the children to play with. He^-saww said: ‘What will you do with this?’ He said, ‘I shall sell it’. He^-saww said: ‘What will you do with its price?’ He said, ‘I shall buy some dates and eat them’. The Prophet^-saww said to him: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Bless for him in his right selling hand’.

فَكَانَ يُقَالُ مَا اشْتَرَى شَيْئاً قَطُّ إِلَّا رَبِحَ فِيهِ فَصَارَ أَمْرُهُ إِلَى أَنْ يُمَثَّلَ بِهِ فَقَالُوا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْجَوَادُ وَ كَانَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ يَتَدَايَنُونَ‏ بَعْضُهُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ إِلَى أَنْ يَأْتِيَ عَطَاءُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ

It was said, ‘He did not buy anything except that he profited in it, and his affairs came to the point that it was exemplified with. They said, ‘Abdullah Bin Ja’far Al-Jawad’, and he was from the people of Al-Medina lending to each other up to the coming of the grants of Abdullah Bin Ja’far’.

أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ص بِتُمَيْرَاتٍ فَقُلْتُ ادْعُ لِي بِالْبَرَكَةِ فِيهِنَّ فَدَعَا ثُمَّ قَالَ اجْعَلْهُنَّ فِي الْمِزْوَدِ قَالَ فَلَقَدْ حَمَلْتُ مِنْهَا كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَسْقاً

Abu Hureyra came to the Prophet^-saww with some dates and said, ‘Supplicate for me with the Blessings regarding these’. He^-saww supplicated, then said: ‘Make these to be in the provision bag’. He said, ‘I had carried from these such and such ‘Wasaqs’ (sixty Sa’as)’’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ ص فِي ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ اللَّهُمَّ فَقِّهْهُ فِي الدِّينِ الْخَبَرَ فَخَرَجَ بَحْراً فِي الْعِلْمِ وَ حِبْراً لِلْأُمَّةِ

And his^-saww words regarding Ibn Abbas: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Make him understanding in the Religion’ – the Hadeeth. He brought out an ocean of knowledge, and he was an erudite scholar of the community.

فِي نُزْهَةِ الْأَبْصَارِ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص قَالَ لِسَعْدٍ اللَّهُمَّ سَدِّدْ رَمْيَتَهُ وَ أَجِبْ دَعْوَتَهُ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَرْمِي فَيُقَالُ إِنَّهُ تَخَلَّفَ يَوْمَ الْقَادِسِيَّةِ عَنِ الْوَقْعَةِ لِفَتْرَةٍ عَرَضَتْ لَهُ

Regarding (the book) ‘Nazhat Al-Absaar’ – The Prophet^-saww said to Sa’ad: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Guide his aim (in shooting arrows)’, and he was an archer. It is said he stayed behind from the event on the day of Al-Qadisiyya for a time period presented to him.

فَقَالَ فِيهِ شَاعِرٌ

أَ لَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ أَظْهَرَ دِينَهُ‏		وَ سَعْدٌ بِبَابِ الْقَادِسِيَّةِ مُعْصَمٌ‏
رَجَعْنَا وَ قَدْ آمَتْ نِسَاءٌ كَثِيرَةٌ		وَ نِسْوَةُ سَعْدٍ لَيْسَ فِيهِنَّ أَيِّمٌ‏

A poet said regarding him, (Poem), ‘Have you not seen that Allah^-azwj has made His^-azwj religion prevail, while Sa’d stands firmly established at the gate of Al-Qadisiyyah? We returned, while many women had been widowed, but among the women of Sa’d there was not a single widow’.

فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ سَعْداً فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَخْرِسْ لِسَانَهُ فَشَهِدَ حَرْباً فَأَصَابَتْهُ رَمْيَةٌ فَخَرِسَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ لِسَانُهُ

Sa’d delivered that. He^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Mute his tongue’. He attended a battle and an arrow hit him, and his tongue was muted from that’.

وَ رَأَى سَعْدٌ رَجُلًا بِالْمَدِينَةِ رَاكِباً عَلَى بَعِيرٍ يَشْتِمُ عَلِيّاً ع فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَ هَذَا الشَّيْخُ وَلِيّاً مِنْ أَوْلِيَائِكَ فَأَرِنَا قُدْرَتَكَ فِيهِ فَنَفَرَ بِهِ بَعِيرُهُ فَأَلْقَاهُ فَانْدَقَّتْ رَقَبَتُهُ

And he^-saww saw a rider upon a camel insulting Ali^-asws. He^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! If this old man was a friend (enemy) from Your^-azwj friend (enemies), then Show us Your^-azwj Power regrading him’. His camel fled with him and threw him and his neck was fractured’.

وَ سَمِعَ النَّبِيُّ ص فِي مَسِيرِهِ إِلَى خَيْبَرَ- سَوْقَ‏ عَامِرِ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ بِقَوْلِهِ‏

لَاهُمَّ لَوْ لَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا		وَ لَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَ لَا صَلَّيْنَا

And the Prophet^-saww heard during his^-saww journey to Khyber in a market, Aamir Bin Akwa’s words, ‘No worries. Had it not been for you^-saww, we would not have been guided, nor given charity nor prayed Salat’.

فَقَالَ ص بِرَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ‏ قَالَ رَجُلٌ وَجَبْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ لَا أَمْتَعْتَنَا بِهِ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص مَا اسْتَغْفَرَ قَطُّ لِرَجُلٍ يَخُصُّهُ إِلَّا اسْتُشْهِدَ

He^-saww said: ‘May Allah^-azwj have Mercy (on him)’. A man said, ‘It is obligatory, O Rasool-Allah^-saww! If we had not left our luggage with him’. And that is because the Prophet^-saww would not forgive any man at all who contended unless he brought witnesses’.

وَ كَانَ النَّاسُ يَحْفِرُونَ الْخَنْدَقَ وَ يُنْشِدُونَ سِوَى سَلْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص اللَّهُمَّ أَطْلِقْ لِسَانَ سَلْمَانَ وَ لَوْ عَلَى بَيْتَيْنِ مِنَ الشِّعْرِ فَأَنْشَأَ سَلْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ‏

مَا لِي لِسَانٌ فَأَقُولَ شِعْراً		أَسْأَلُ رَبِّي قُوَّةً وَ نَصْراً

The people were digging the ditch and were prosing, besides Salman^-ra. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Free the tongue of Salman^-ra, and even if it is upon two couplets from the poetry’. Salman^-ra prosed, ‘I^-ar have no tongue with which to compose poetry, so I^-ar ask my^-ar Lord^-azwj for strength and victory against my^-ar enemy and the enemy of the pure one, Muhammad^-saww the Chosen, who has attained honour, so that I^-ar may attain a palace in Paradise together with every maiden of Paradise who resembles the full moon’.

فَضَجَّ الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَ جَعَلَ كُلُّ قَبِيلَةٍ يَقُولُ سَلْمَانُ مِنَّا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص سَلْمَانُ مِنَّا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ

The Muslims resounded, and every tribe went on to say, ‘Salman^-ra is from us!’ The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Salman^-ra is from us^-asws, the People^-asws of the Household’’.[45]

46- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع فِي خَبَرٍ أَنَّهُ ذُكِرَ قُوَّةُ اللَّحْمِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ مَا ذُقْتُهُ مُنْذُ كَذَا فَتَقَرَّبَ إِلَيْهِ فَقِيرٌ بِجَدْيٍ كَانَ لَهُ فَشَوَاهُ وَ أَنْفَذَهُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص كُلُوهُ وَ لَا تَكْسِرُوا عِظَامَهُ فَلَمَّا فَرَغُوا أَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ وَ قَالَ انْهَضْ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ فَأَحْيَاهُ فَكَانَ يَمُرُّ عِنْدَ صَاحِبِهِ كَمَا يُسَاقُ

From Al-Sadiq^-asws in a Hadeeth: ‘The strength of the meat was mentioned in the presence of Rasool-Allah^-saww. He^-saww said: ‘I^-saww have not tasted it since such and such day’. A poor man offered it to him^-saww a young goat of his and took it to him^-saww. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Eat it and do not break any of its bones’. When they were free, he^-saww gestured towards it: ‘Arise, by the Permission of Allah^-azwj!’ He^-azwj Revived it and it passed by its owner just as he had ushered it’.

وَ أَتَى أَبُو أَيُّوبَ بِشَاةٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فِي عُرْسِ فَاطِمَةَ ع فَنَهَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَنْ ذَبْحِهِ‏ فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ فَأَمَرَ ص يَزِيدَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ فَذَبَحَهُ بَعْدَ يَوْمَيْنِ فَلَمَّا طُبِخَ أَمَرَ أَلَّا يَأْكُلُوا إِلَّا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ أَنْ لَا يَكْسِرُوا عِظَامَهُ

And Abu Ayoub came with a sheep to Rasool-Allah^-saww during the wedding of (Syeda) Fatima^-asws, but Jibraeel^-as forbade him^-saww from slaughtering it. That was grievous upon him, so he^-saww instructed Yazeed Bin Jubeyr the Helper to slaughter it after two days. When it was cooked, he^-saww instructed that it should not be eaten except in the Name of Allah^-azwj, and that its bone should not be broken.

ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ أَبَا أَيُّوبَ رَجُلٌ فَقِيرٌ إِلَهِي أَنْتَ خَلَقْتَهَا وَ أَنْتَ أَفْنَيْتَهَا وَ إِنَّكَ قَادِرٌ عَلَى إِعَادَتِهَا فَأَحْيِهَا يَا حَيُّ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ فَأَحْيَاهُ اللَّهُ وَ جَعَلَ فِيهَا بَرَكَةً لِأَبِي أَيُّوبَ وَ شِفَاءَ الْمَرْضَى فِي لَبَنِهَا فَسَمَّاهَا أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ الْمَبْعُوثَةَ

Then he^-saww said: ‘Abu Ayoub is a poor man. My^-saww God^-azwj! You^-azwj Created it, and You^-azwj Perish it, and You^-azwj are Able upon Returning it, so Revive it, O Ever-living, there is no god except You^-azwj’. Allah^-azwj Revived it and Made Blessings to be therein for Abu Ayoub, and healing of the sick in its milk. The people of Medina named it as ‘The resurrected one’.

وَ فِيهَا قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ أَبْيَاتاً مِنْهَا

أَ لَمْ يُبْصِرُوا شَاةَ ابْنِ زَيْدٍ وَ حَالَهَا		وَ فِي أَمْرِهَا لِلطَّالِبِينَ مَزِيدٌ

وَ أَنْضَجَ مِنْهَا اللَّحْمَ وَ الْعَظْمَ وَ الْكُلَى‏		فَهَلْهَلَهُ بِالنَّارِ وَ هُوَ هَرِيدٌ
فَأَحْيَا لَهُ ذُو الْعَرْشِ وَ اللَّهُ قَادِرٌ		فَعَادَتْ بِحَالِ مَا يَشَاءُ يَعُودُ

And Abdul Rahman Bin Awf said couplets from it, ‘Have they not seen the sheep of Ibn Zayd and what happened to it? And in its affair there is something more for those who seek to know. It was slaughtered, then its hide was removed, and Yazid cut it into pieces there. He cooked from it the flesh, the bones, and the kidneys, then he thoroughly cooked it over the fire while it was roasted. Then the Lord^-azwj of the Throne Allah^-azwj , and Allah^-azwj is Powerful, Revived it for him, and it returned to the condition in which He^-azwj Willed it to return’.

وَ فِي خَبَرٍ عَنْ سَلْمَانَ‏ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا نَزَلَ ص دَارَ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ سِوَى جَدْيٍ وَ صَاعٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ فَذَبَحَ لَهُ الْجَدْيَ وَ شَوَاهُ وَ طَحَنَ الشَّعِيرَ وَ عَجَنَهُ وَ خَبَزَهُ وَ قَدَّمَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّبِيِّ ص فَأَمَرَ بِأَنْ يُنَادِيَ أَلَا مَنْ أَرَادَ الزَّادَ فَلْيَأْتِ إِلَى دَارِ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ

And in a Hadeeth from Salman^-ra, ‘When he^-saww was a guest in the house of Abu Ayoub, there did not happen to be for him besides a young goat and one Sa’a of barley. He slaughtered the young goat for him^-saww and grilled it, and ground the barley and kneaded it and made bread out of it, and forwarded it in front of Rasool-Allah^-saww. He^-saww instructed him to call out, ‘Indeed! One who wants the provision so let him come to the house of Abu Ayoub’.

فَجَعَلَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ يُنَادِي وَ النَّاسُ يُهْرَعُونَ كَالسَّيْلِ حَتَّى امْتَلَأَتِ الدَّارُ فَأَكَلَ النَّاسُ بِأَجْمَعِهِمْ وَ الطَّعَامُ لَمْ يَتَغَيَّرْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص اجْمَعُوا الْعِظَامَ فَجَمَعُوهَا فَوَضَعَهَا فِي إِهَابِهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ قُومِي بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَقَامَ الْجَدْيُ فَضَجَّ النَّاسُ بِالشَّهَادَتَيْنِ

Abu Ayoub went on to call out, and the people came running like the flood until the house was filled up. The people ate in their entirety and the meal did not change. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Gather the bones and place them in its skin’. Then he^-saww said: ‘Arise, by the Permission of Allah^-azwj the Exalted!’ The goat stood up and the people resounded with the two testimonies’’.[46]

‘Al Kafi’ – Ali, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umey, from Hisham Bin Al Hakam,

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘When Rasool-Allah^-saww prayed for rain, it drenched the people until they said, ‘It is the drowning!’ And Rasool-Allah^-saww said, raising his^-saww hands and returned it: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Around us and not upon us’.

قَالَ فَتَفَرَّقَ السَّحَابُ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَسْقَيْتَ لَنَا فَلَمْ نُسْقَ ثُمَّ اسْتَسْقَيْتَ لَنَا فَسُقِينَا قَالَ إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ وَ لَيْسَ لِي فِي ذَلِكَ نِيَّةٌ ثُمَّ دَعَوْتُ وَ لِي فِي ذَلِكَ نِيَّةٌ

He^-asws said: ‘The clouds dispersed and they said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! You^-saww prayed for rain for us, but we were not quenched, (but were drenched), then you^-saww prayed for rain for us, and we were quenched’. He^-saww said: ‘I^-saww supplicated and there wasn’t any intention for me^-saww regarding that. Then I^-saww supplicated and there was an intention for me^-saww regarding that’’.[47]

‘Al Kafi’ – Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Ali, from Abdul Rahman Bin Muhammad Al Asady, from Salim Bin Makram,

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘A Jew passed by the Prophet^-saww and he said, ‘Al Saam Alayka’ (poison be upon you)’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Upon you’. His^-saww companions said, ‘But rather he greeted with the death to be upon you^-saww. He said, ‘The death be upon you^-saww’?’ The Prophet^-saww said: ‘And like that I responded’.

ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِنَّ هَذَا الْيَهُودِيَّ يَعَضُّهُ أَسْوَدُ فِي قَفَاهُ فَيَقْتُلُهُ قَالَ فَذَهَبَ الْيَهُودِيُّ فَاحْتَطَبَ حَطَباً كَثِيراً فَاحْتَمَلَهُ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَلْبَثْ أَنِ انْصَرَفَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ضَعْهُ فَوَضَعَ الْحَطَبَ فَإِذَا أَسْوَدُ فِي جَوْفِ الْحَطَبِ عَاضٌّ عَلَى عُودٍ فَقَالَ يَا يَهُودِيُّ مَا عَمِلْتَ‏ الْيَوْمَ قَالَ مَا عَمِلْتُ عَمَلًا إِلَّا حَطَبِي هَذَا احْتَمَلْتُهُ‏ فَجِئْتُ بِهِ وَ كَانَ مَعِي كَعْكَتَانِ‏ فَأَكَلْتُ وَاحِدَةً وَ تَصَدَّقْتُ بِوَاحِدَةٍ عَلَى مِسْكِينٍ

Then the Prophet^-saww said: ‘This Jew, a black snake will sting him in his hand and kill him’. The Jew went away and collected a lot of firewood and carried it. Then it was not long before he left, and Rasool-Allah^-saww said to him: ‘Place it down!’ He placed down the firewood, and there was a black snake in the middle of the firewood slithering upon the wood. He^-saww said: ‘O Jew! What did you do today?’ He said, ‘I did not do any deed except this firewood of mine. I carried it and came with it and with me were two cakes. I ate one and gave in charity with another to a poor one’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِهَا دَفَعَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَ قَالَ إِنَّ الصَّدَقَةَ تَدْفَعُ مِيتَةَ السَّوْءِ عَنِ الْإِنْسَانِ‏

Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘Allah^-azwj has Defended from it due to it’. And he^-saww said: ‘The charity repels the evil death from the human being’’.[48]

‘Al Kafi’ – Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Saleh Bin Al-Sandy, from Ja’far Bin basher, from Ruzeyq Abu Al-Abbas, who has narrated the following:

Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘The people came to the Rasool-Allah^-saww, so they said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Our towns have drought and it has prevailed for years upon us. So, supplicate to Allah^-azwj Blessed and High to Send the sky (to rain) upon us’. Rasool-Allah^-saww ordered for the Pulpit. They brought it out, and the people gathered. The Rasool-Allah^-saww ascended and supplicated, and ordered the people to say ‘Ameen’.

فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ أَنْ هَبَطَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَخْبِرِ النَّاسَ أَنَّ رَبَّكَ قَدْ وَعَدَهُمْ أَنْ يُمْطَرُوا يَوْمَ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ سَاعَةَ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَلَمْ يَزَلِ النَّاسُ يَنْتَظِرُونَ‏ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ‏ وَ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَتْ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةُ أَهَاجَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ رِيحاً فَأَثَارَتْ سَحَاباً وَ جَلَّلَتِ السَّمَاءَ وَ أَرْخَتْ عَزَالِيَهَا

It was not long before Jibraeel^-as descended and said; ‘O Muhammad^-saww! Inform the people that your^-saww Lord^-azwj has Promised to them that He^-azwj would Make it rain on such and such a day, and at such and such a time’. The people did not cease to look out for that day and that particular time, until that time came up. Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic Excited a wind, so it raised clouds, which covered the sky, and released the rain.

فَجَاءَ أُولَئِكَ النَّفَرُ بِأَعْيَانِهِمْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ادْعُ اللَّهَ لَنَا أَنْ يَكُفَّ السَّمَاءَ عَنَّا فَإِنَّا قَدْ كِدْنَا أَنْ نُغْرَقَ فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ وَ دَعَا النَّبِيُّ ص وَ أَمَرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يُؤَمِّنُوا عَلَى دُعَائِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَسْمِعْنَا فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَا تَقُولُ لَيْسَ نَسْمَعُ فَقَالَ قُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَ لَا عَلَيْنَا اللَّهُمَّ صُبَّهَا فِي بُطُونِ الْأَوْدِيَةِ وَ فِي نَبَاتِ الشَّجَرِ وَ حَيْثُ يَرْعَى أَهْلُ الْوَبَرِ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهَا رَحْمَةً وَ لَا تَجْعَلْهَا عَذَاباً

Those individuals came with their rich ones to the Prophet^-saww. They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww, Supplicate to Allah^-azwj for us to withhold the sky (stop the rain) from us, for we are about to drown. The people gathered, and the Prophet^-saww supplicated, and ordered the people that they should say ‘Ameen’ upon his^-saww supplication. A man from the people said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww, make us hear it, for all what you^-saww are saying, we cannot hear’. He^-saww said; ‘Say, ‘Our Allah^-azwj! Around us and not upon us. Our Allah^-azwj! Let it pour in the middle of the valleys, and in the growth of the trees, and where the shepherds tend to pasture. O Allah^-azwj! Make it to be a Mercy, and do not Make it to be a Punishment’’.[49]

From his^-saww miracles is that Abu Bara’a was a player of arrows and there was an abscess in his belly. Labeyd Bin Rabie sent a message to him and he gifted two horses and a halter for him^-saww. He^-saww: ‘I don’t accept a gift of a Polytheist’. Labeyd said, ‘I haven’t seen any man from (the tribe of) Muzar to return a gift of Abu Bara’a’. He^-saww said: ‘If I^-saww was accepting gifts from a Polytheist, I^-saww would have accepted it’.

He said, ‘But he just wants your healing from an illness he has been hit by in his belly’. So, he^-saww grabbed a handful of the soil and spat upon it, then gave it to him and said: ‘Mix it with water, then quench it to him’. He took is wondering, seeing that he had been mocked with. He gave it, and he drank it and was freed from his sickness as if he had been released from a knot’’.[50]

‘Al Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Abu Amro, from Ibn Aqadah, from Ahmad Bin Yahya Al Sowfy, from Abdul Rahman Bin Shareek, from his father, from Abdullah Bin Aasim Bin Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Amro, from his father who said,

‘We were facing Rome when the hunger hit the people, so the Helpers came to Rasool-Allah^-saww and sought his^-saww permission regarding slaughtering the camel. Rasool-Allah^-saww sent for Umar Bin Al-Khattab and asked, ‘What is your view, for the Helpers came to me^-saww my^-saww permission in slaughtering the camel. He said, ‘O Prophet^-saww of Allah^-azwj! How will it be for us when we face the enemy tomorrow and the men are hungry?’ He^-saww said: ‘What is your view?’

قَالَ مُرْ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ فَلْيُنَادِ فِي النَّاسِ بِعَزْمَةٍ مِنْكَ لَا يَبْقَى أَحَدٌ عِنْدَهُ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا جَاءَ بِهِ وَ بَسَطَ الْأَنْطَاعَ فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَجِي‏ءُ بِالْمُدِّ وَ نِصْفِ الْمُدِّ فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى جَمِيعِ مَا جَاءُوا بِهِ فَقُلْتُ سَبْعَةٌ وَ عِشْرُونَ صَاعاً ثَمَانِيَةٌ وَ عِشْرُونَ صَاعاً لَا يُجَاوِزُ الثَّلَاثِينَ

He said, ‘Order Abu Talha, so let him call out among the people with determination from you^-saww, ‘There should not remain anyone who has food with him except he should come with it’, and spread out the sheet. The men kept coming with the Mudd Unit of measurement) and half the Mudd. Then he^-saww looked at the entirety of what they had come with. I said, ‘Twenty-seven Sa’as (unit of measurement)? Twenty-eight Sa’as? It does not exceed thirty!’

وَ اجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ يَوْمَئِذٍ إِلَى‏ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ هُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَرْبَعَةُ آلَافِ رَجُلٍ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِأَكْثَرَ دُعَاءً مَا سَمِعْتُهُ قَطُّ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي الطَّعَامِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلْقَوْمِ لَا يُبَادِرَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ صَاحِبَهُ وَ لَا يَأْخُذَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ حَتَّى يَذْكُرَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ

And on that day the people gathered to Rasool-Allah^-saww, and on that day they were four thousand men. Rasool-Allah^-saww supplicated with the longest supplication not been heard at all, then inserted his^-saww hand into the food, then said to the people: ‘Not one of you should initiate his companion, nor should one of you take until he mentions the Name of Allah^-azwj’.

فَقَامَتْ أَوَّلُ رِفْقَةٍ فَقَالَ اذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ خُذُوا فَأَخَذُوا فَمَلَئُوا كُلَّ وِعَاءٍ وَ كُلَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ ثُمَّ قَامَ النَّاسُ فَأَخَذُوا كُلَّ وِعَاءٍ وَ كُلَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ ثُمَّ بَقِيَ طَعَامٌ كَثِيرٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ وَ الَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَا يَقُولُهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا حَرَّمَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّارِ

The first (group of) friends stood and (each one) said, ‘I mention the Name of Allah^-azwj’. Then they took from everything from every container and ate. Then the people stood up and they took every container and everything. Then a lot of food still remained. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘Testify that there is no god except Allah^-azwj and that Muhammad^-saww is His^-azwj servant and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww. By the One^-azwj in Whose Hand is my^-saww soul! No one will say it except Allah^-azwj will Prohibit the Fire unto him’’.[51]

‘Tafseer Al-Qummi’ – From Jabir^-ar who said,

‘I knew it, during the military expedition of Khandaq, that Rasool-Allah^-saww was extremely hungry when I saw the rock upon his^-saww belly, so I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Is there anything for you^-saww regarding the lunch?’ He^-saww said: ‘What is with you, O Jabir^-ar?’ I said, ‘A young goat and a Sa’a (unit of measurement) of barley’. He^-saww said: ‘Proceed and prepare whatever is with you’.

قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَجِئْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي فَأَمَرْتُهَا فَطَحَنَتِ الشَّعِيرَ وَ ذَبَحْتُ الْعَنْزَ وَ سَلَخْتُهَا وَ أَمَرْتُهَا أَنْ تَخْبِزَ وَ تَطْبُخَ وَ تَشْوِيَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغْتُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ جِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقُلْتُ بِأَبِي‏ وَ أُمِّي أَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ فَرَغْنَا فَأَحْضِرْ مَعَ مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ

Jabir^-ar said, ‘I^-ar went to my wife and instructed her to cook the barley and I^-ar slaughtered the goat and stripped it and instructed her that she make bread and cook and grill. When she was free from that, I^-ar came to Rasool-Allah^-saww and said, ‘May my^-ar father and my^-ar mother be sacrificed for you^-asws, O Rasool-Allah^-saww! We are ready, so attend the ones you^-saww like to’.

فَقَامَ ص إِلَى شَفِيرِ الْخَنْدَقِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَجِيبُوا جَابِراً وَ كَانَ فِي الْخَنْدَقِ سَبْعُمِائَةِ رَجُلٍ فَخَرَجُوا كُلُّهُمْ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَمُرَّ بِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَّا قَالَ أَجِيبُوا جَابِراً

He^-saww stood at the edge of the ditch’. Then he^-saww said: ‘O communities of the Emigrants and the Helpers, answer (the invitation of) Jabir^-ar!’ And there were seven hundred men in the ditch, and all of them came out. Then no one from the Emigrants and the Helpers passed by except he said, ‘Answer (the invitation of) Jabir^-ar!’

قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَتَقَدَّمْتُ وَ قُلْتُ لِأَهْلِي قَدْ وَ اللَّهِ أَتَاكِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِمَا لَا قِبَلَ لَكِ بِهِ فَقَالَتْ أَعْلَمْتَهُ‏ أَنْتَ مَا عِنْدَنَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَتْ فَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا أَتَى

Jabir^-ar said, ‘I went ahead and said to my^-ar wife, ‘By Allah^-azwj! Rasool-Allah^-saww is coming to you with what is not acceptable to you’. She said, ‘Did you^-ar let him^-saww know what is in our possession?’ He^-ar said, ‘Yes’. She said, ‘Then he^-saww is more knowing with what (how many) he^-saww should come with’.

قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَنَظَرَ فِي الْقِدْرِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اغْرِفِي وَ أَبْقِي ثُمَّ نَظَرَ فِي التَّنُّورِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَخْرِجِي وَ أَبْقِي ثُمَّ دَعَا بِصَحْفَةٍ فَثَرَدَ فِيهَا وَ غَرَفَ فَقَالَ يَا جَابِرُ أَدْخِلْ عَلَيَّ عَشَرَةً عَشَرَةً فَأَدْخَلْتُ عَشَرَةً فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى نَهِلُوا وَ مَا يُرَى فِي الْقَصْعَةِ إِلَّا آثَارُ أَصَابِعِهِمْ

Jabir^-ar said, ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww entered and looked into the pot, then said: ‘Scoop out and it shall remain’. Then he^-saww looked into the oven, then said: ‘Take it out, and it shall last’. Then he^-saww called for a container, and poured into it and scooped. He^-saww said: ‘O Jabir^-ar! Enter unto me^-saww, ten by ten. Ten entered and they ate until they were satiated, and there was not seen in the bowl except the impact of their fingers.

ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا جَابِرُ عَلَيَّ بِالذِّرَاعِ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِالذِّرَاعِ فَأَكَلُوهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَدْخِلْ عَشَرَةً فَأَدْخَلْتُهُمْ حَتَّى أَكَلُوا وَ نَهِلُوا وَ مَا يُرَى فِي الْقَصْعَةِ إِلَّا آثَارُ أَصَابِعِهِمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ عَلَيَّ بِالذِّرَاعِ فَأَكَلُوا وَ خَرَجُوا

Then he^-saww said: ‘O Jabir^-ar! To me^-saww with the forearm (of the grilled goat)’. I^-ar brought the forearm to him^-saww and they ate. Then he^-saww said: ‘Enter ten’. I entered them until they had eaten and were satiated, and nothing was seen in the bowl except the imprint of their fingers. Then he^-saww said: ‘To me^-saww with the forearm (of the grilled goat)’. They ate and went out.

ثُمَّ قَالَ أَدْخِلْ عَلَيَّ عَشَرَةً فَأَدْخَلْتُهُمْ‏ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى نَهِلُوا وَ مَا يُرَى فِي الْقَصْعَةِ إِلَّا آثَارُ أَصَابِعِهِمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا جَابِرُ عَلَيَّ بِالذِّرَاعِ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَمْ لِلشَّاةِ مِنَ الذِّرَاعِ قَالَ ذِرَاعَانِ فَقُلْتُ وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَقَدْ آتَيْتُكَ بِثَلَاثَةٍ

Then he^-saww said: ‘Enter ten (more) unto me^-saww!’ I entered them, and they ate until they were satiated, and there was not seen in the bowl except the impact of their fingers. Then he^-saww said: ‘O Jabir! To me with the forearm (of the grilled goat)’. I brought it to him^-saww and I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! How many forearms are there for the sheep (goat)?’ He^-saww said: ‘Two forearms’. I said, ‘By the One^-azwj Who Sent you^-saww with the Truth! I have already come to you^-saww with three’.

فَقَالَ أَمَا لَوْ سَكَتَّ يَا جَابِرُ لَأَكَلَ النَّاسُ كُلُّهُمْ مِنَ الذِّرَاعِ قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَأَقْبَلْتُ أُدْخِلُ عَشَرَةً عَشَرَةً فَيَأْكُلُونَ حَتَّى أَكَلُوا كُلُّهُمْ وَ بَقِيَ وَ اللَّهِ لَنَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ الطَّعَامِ مَا عِشْنَا بِهِ أَيَّاماً

He^-saww said: ‘But, had you been silent, O Jabir, all of the people would have eaten from the forearm’. Jabir said, ‘So, I went on entering ten by ten, and they ate, all of them, and by Allah^-azwj, the (food) still remained for us from that food what we had dinner with for days’’.[52]

Al Sadouq, from Muhammad Bin Haroun, from Musa Bin Haroun, from Hamad Bin Zayd, from Hisham, from Muhammad, from Anas (well-known fabricator) who said,

‘Umm Saleym sent for me’ – meaning his mother – ‘upon something she had made and it was a Mudd (unit of measurement) of barley she had cooked and poured some butter on it. The Prophet^-saww stood up and the ones with him^-saww entered to it. He^-saww said: ‘Enter unto me^-saww, ten by ten’. Then they entered and ate and were satiated until I came to them. I said to Anas ‘How many were they?’ He said, ‘Forty’’.[54]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that the Prophet^-saww passed by a woman called Umm Ma’bad who had nobility for her among her people. He^-saww descended (at) her (house) and she excused that there was nothing with her except for a young goat; not a single drop of milk had been seen for it since a year of the sterility. He^-saww wiped its udders, and they were quenched from its milk, and there still remained some milk for them and a lot of good. Then her family became Muslims due to that’’.[55]

She sought in it but could not find anything. He^-saww took it and moved it with his^-saww hands, and it filled up with fresh butter, and she had treated it before that and nothing had come out from it.

They complained of that to him^-saww. He^-saww grabbed an arrow from his^-saww quiver and instructed it to be inserted in the bottom of the dried up well.

It is reported that a people complained to him^-saww of the saltiness of their water, so he^-saww came to their well and spat in it, and it was deep with its saltiness, and the fresh water burst forth. It (well) was inherited by its people, and they were calling it their great honour, and this well is at the back of Makkah in the place called Al-Zahir, and it is named as Al-Aseelah.

And it was from that Allah^-azwj Ratified him^-saww, among it is that when the news of that reached a group of Musaylama. They asked him similar to that.

ثُمَّ قَامَ ع وَ غَرَسَهَا بِيَدِهِ فَمَا سَقَطَتْ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْهَا وَ بَقِيَتْ عَلَماً مُعْجِزاً يُسْتَشْفَى‏ بِتَمْرِهَا وَ تُرْجَى بَرَكَاتُهَا وَ أَعْطَاهُ تِبْرَةً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ كَبَيْضَةِ الدِّيكِ فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ بِهَا وَ أَوْفِ‏ مِنْهَا أَصْحَابَ الدُّيُونِ

Then he^-asws stood up and planted it with his^-saww hands, and not one fell from it, and remained as a sign of a miracle, benefiting by its dates, and wished its Blessings, and gave it a golden crown like the rooster. He^-saww said: ‘Go with it and fulfil from it the owners of the debts’.

فَقَالَ مُتَعَجِّباً مُسْتَقِلًّا لَهَا وَ أَيْنَ تَقَعُ هَذِهِ مِمَّا عَلَيَّ فَأَدَارَهَا عَلَى لِسَانِهِ ثُمَّ أَعْطَاهَا إِيَّاهُ وَ قَدْ كَانَتْ فِي هَيْئَتِهَا الْأُولَى وَ وَزْنُهَا لَا يَفِي بِرُبُعِ حَقِّهِمْ فَذَهَبَ بِهَا فَأَوْفَى الْقَوْمُ مِنْهَا حُقُوقَهُمْ‏

He^-ar said in astonishment to it, ‘And where will these fall from what (debts) there are upon me^-ra?’ He^-ra ran it upon his^-ra tongue than gave these to him^-saww, and there were in its former form and weight. Not even a quarter of their rights had been paid, so he^-ra went with these and fulfilled for the people of their rights’’.[62]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported by Anas (well-known fabricator) who said, ‘I went out with the Prophet^-saww to the market and there were ten Dirhams with me, and he^-saww wanted to but a cloak, and he^-saww saw a slave girl crying, and she was saying, ‘Two Dirhams have fallen from it in the commotion of the market, and I do not have the courage to return to my master’. He^-saww said to me: ‘Give her two Dirhams’. I gave these to her. When he^-saww bought a cloak for ten Dirhams, and I weighed (counted) what had remained with me, and there were complete ten Dirhams’’.[63]

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – It is reported that Abu Hureyra said, ‘One day I came to Rasool-Allah^-saww with some dates and I said, ‘Supplicate to Allah^-azwj for me with the Blessings in it’. He^-azwj supplicated, then said: ‘Take these and make these to be in the provision bag. Whenever you want something, then insert your hand in it and do not scatter it’.

قَالَ فَلَقَدْ حَمَلْتُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ التَّمْرِ أَوْسُقاً وَ كُنَّا نَأْكُلُ وَ نُطْعِمُ وَ كَانَ لَا يُفَارِقُ حَقْوَيَّ فَارْتَكَبْتُ مَأْثَماً فَانْقَطَعَ وَ ذَهَبَ وَ هُوَ أَنَّهُ كَتَمَ الشَّهَادَةَ لِعَلِيٍّ ع ثُمَّ تَابَ فَدَعَا لَهُ عَلِيٌّ ع فَصَارَ كَمَا كَانَ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ إِلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ ذَهَبَ وَ انْقَطَعَ‏

He said, ‘I had carried a bunch from those dates and we ate and fed, and did not separate it from my waist. I indulged in a sin, and it was terminated and gone, and it (sin) was the concealment of the testimony for Ali^-asws. Then I repented and Ali^-asws supplicated to it, and it became just as it had been. When I went to Muawiya, it went away and it was terminated (again)’’.[64]  This is not a Hadith but is narrated by Abu Hureyra (the famous Hadith fabricator)

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that the Prophet^-saww used to go out to the Masjid three times during the night. He^-saww went out at the end of the night and (saw that several) poor people had spent the night by the Pulpit. He^-saww called for a slave girl to stand unto his^-saww womenfolk. He^-saww said: ‘Come to me^-saww with whatever is with you’.

She came to him^-saww with an earthen pot; there wasn’t anything except something little. He^-saww placed it, then woke up ten, and said: ‘Eat in the Name of Allah^-azwj’. They ate until they were satiated. Then he^-saww woke up ten (more) and said: ‘Eat in the Name of Allah^-azwj’. They ate until they were satiated. Then (kept on doing) like that, and there still remained in the pot a remainder. He^-saww said: ‘Go with this (back) to them’’.[66]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Salman^-ra having said, ‘I^-ra was Fasting and was not able to drink water for three (days). I^-ra informed Rasool-Allah^-saww with that. He^-saww said: ‘Come with us^-saww’. We went but could not attain anything but his (a companion’s) goat. Rasool-Allah^-saww said to its owner: ‘Bring it closer’. He said, ‘(It is) milkless’. He^-saww said: ‘Bring it closer’. He brought it closer, and he^-saww wiped his^-saww hand upon its udders, and they filled up.

He^-saww said: ‘Bring your container’. He came with it, and he^-saww filled it with milk, and gave it to the owner of the goat. He^-saww said: ‘Drink!’ Then he^-saww filled upon the cup and gave it to me^-ra, and I^-ra drank it. Then he^-saww took the cup and filled it, and drank’’.[68]

I^-asws went out and he^-saww was lying down saying: ‘I^-saww seek Refuge with Allah^-azwj from the hunger as a bedfellow’.

I^-asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! There is food with us^-asws’. He^-saww leaned upon me^-asws and we^-asws went to (the house of Syeda) Fatima^-asws. When we^-asws entered, he^-saww said: ‘Bring me^-saww your^-asws food, O Fatima^-asws!’ She^-asws brought forwards the earthen pot and the disc (of bread) to him^-saww. He^-saww covered the disc and said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Bless for us^-asws in our^-asws food’.

When we ended up to the water, he^-saww called for a cup and rinsed in it, then poured it into the water. They (all) drank their fill and filled up their water-skins and washed. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘If you were to remain, or the one from you who remains, and let him be heard as the quencher due to what is in front of him from the abundance of its water’. They found from that what he^-saww said.[71]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Jabir who said, ‘My father was martyred in front of Rasool-Allah^-saww on the day of (battle of) Ohad, and he was one hundred years old, and there were debts upon him. One day Rasool-Allah^-saww met me and said: ‘What happened to the debts of your father?’ I said, ‘Upon its state’. He^-saww said: ‘For whom is this (debt)?’ I said, ‘To so and so, the Jew’. He^-saww said: ‘How long for?’ I said, ‘Time of the dryness of the dates’.

قَالَ إِذَا جَفَّ التَّمْرُ فَلَا تُحْدِثْ فِيهِ حَتَّى تُعْلِمَنِي وَ اجْعَلْ كُلَّ صِنْفٍ مِنَ التَّمْرِ عَلَى حِدَةٍ فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ وَ أَخْبَرْتُهُ ص فَصَارَ مَعِي إِلَى التَّمْرِ وَ أَخَذَ مِنْ كُلِّ صِنْفٍ قَبْضَةً بِيَدِهِ وَ رَدَّهَا فِيهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَاتِ الْيَهُودِيَّ فَدَعَوْتُهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ اخْتَرْ مِنْ هَذَا التَّمْرِ أَيَّ صِنْفٍ شِئْتَ فَخُذْ دَيْنَكَ مِنْهُ

He^-saww said: ‘When the dates dry up, then do not narrate regarding it until you let me^-saww know, and make every type of the dates to be upon its state’. I did that and informed him^-saww. He^-saww came with me to the dates and took a handful from every type by his^-saww hand and returned it in it, then said: ‘Give the Jew’. I called him. Rasool-Allah^-saww said to him: ‘Choose from these dates whichever type you like and take your debt from him!’

فَقَالَ الْيَهُودِيُّ وَ أَيُّ مِقْدَارٍ لِهَذَا التَّمْرِ كُلِّهِ حَتَّى آخُذَ صِنْفاً بَيْنَهُ‏ وَ لَعَلَّ كُلَّهُ لَا يَفِي بِدَيْنِي فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص اخْتَرْ أَيَّ صِنْفٍ شِئْتَ فَابْتَدِئْ بِهِ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى صِنْفِ الصَّيْحَانِيِّ فَقَالَ أَبْتَدِئُ بِهِ فَقَالَ‏ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَكِيلُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى اسْتَوْفَى مِنْهُ دَيْنَهُ كُلَّهُ وَ الصِّنْفُ عَلَى حَالِهِ مَا نَقَصَ مِنْهُ شَيْ‏ءٌ

The Jew said, ‘And which measurement is there for these dates until I (only) take a type from between it? And perhaps all of it would not fulfil my debt’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Choose whichever type you like and begin with it’. He gestured towards the type Al-Sayhani and said, ‘I begin with it’. He^-saww said: ‘In the Name of Allah^-azwj’. He did not cease to measure out from it until all of his debt was fulfilled from it, and the type was upon its (original) state, nothing having been reduced from it.

ثُمَّ قَالَ ص يَا جَابِرُ هَلْ بَقِيَ لِأَحَدٍ عَلَيْكَ شَيْ‏ءٌ مِنْ دَيْنِهِ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ فَاحْمِلْ تَمْرَكَ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ فِيهِ فَحَمَلْتُهُ إِلَى مَنْزِلِي وَ كَفَانَا السَّنَةَ كُلَّهَا فَكُنَّا نَبِيعُ مِنْهُ لِنَفَقَتِنَا وَ مَئُونَتِنَا وَ نَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ وَ نَهَبُ مِنْهُ وَ نُهْدِي إِلَى وَقْتِ التَّمْرِ الْجَدِيدِ وَ التَّمْرُ عَلَى حَالِهِ إِلَى أَنْ جَاءَنَا الْجَدِيدُ

Then he^-asws said: ‘O Jabir! Does there remain anything for anyone upon you, from his debt?’ I said, ‘No’. He^-saww said: ‘Carry your dates, may Allah^-azwj Bless you in it’. I carried them to my house and we were sufficed of eating it for a year. We used to sell from it in order to cover our expenses and our support, and we ate from it and gifted from it and kept gifting up to the time of the new dates (season), and the dates were upon its (original) state until the new (season dates) came to us’’.[74]

25- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: لَمَّا اجْتَمَعَتِ الْأَحْزَابُ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ لِحَرْبِ الْخَنْدَقِ وَ اسْتَشَارَ النَّبِيُّ ص الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَ الْأَنْصَارَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ سَلْمَانُ إِنَّ الْعَجَمَ إِذَا حَزَبَهَا أَمْرٌ مِثْلُ هَذَا اتَّخَذُوا الْخَنَادِقَ حَوْلَ بُلْدَانِهِمْ وَ جَعَلُوا الْقِتَالَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ وَاحِدٍ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Jabir who said, ‘When the allies from the Arabs gathered for the battle of Al-Khandaq (ditch) and the Prophet^-saww consulted the Emigrants and the Helpers regarding that, so Salman^-ra said, ‘The Persians, when a matter like this is presented, take to digging the ditch around their cities and make the fighting to be from one direction (only)’.

فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ سَلْمَانُ فَخَطَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص الْخَنْدَقَ حَوْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ وَ قَسَمَهُ بَيْنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَ الْأَنْصَارِ بِالذِّرَاعِ فَجَعَلَ لِكُلِّ عَشَرَةٍ مِنْهُمْ عَشَرَةَ أَذْرُعٍ

Allah^-azwj Revealed that he^-saww does similar to what Salman^-ra had said, so Rasool-Allah^-saww drew the line for the ditch around Al-Medina and divided it (digging) between the Emigrants and the Helpers by the cubits, and ten cubits were made to be for ten of them.

قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَظَهَرَتْ يَوْماً مِنَ الْخَطِّ لَنَا صَخْرَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ لَمْ يُمْكِنْ كَسْرُهَا وَ لَا كَانَتِ الْمَعَاوِلُ تَعْمَلُ فِيهَا فَأَرْسَلَنِي أَصْحَابِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص لِأُخْبِرَهُ بِخَبَرِهَا فَصِرْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَوَجَدْتُهُ مُسْتَلْقِياً وَ قَدْ شَدَّ عَلَى بَطْنِهِ الْحَجَرَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِخَبَرِ الْحَجَرِ فَقَامَ مُسْرِعاً فَأَخَذَ الْمَاءَ فِي فَمِهِ فَرَشَّهُ عَلَى الصَّخْرَةِ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ الْمِعْوَلَ بِيَدِهِ وَسَطَ الصَّخْرَةِ ضَرْبَةً بَرَقَتْ مِنْهَا بَرْقَةٌ

Jabir said, ‘One day a large rock appeared from our line. It was not possible to break it, nor would the pickaxe work in it, so my companions sent me to Rasool-Allah^-saww to inform him^-saww with its news. I came to him^-saww and found him^-saww lying down and he^-saww had tightened the stone upon his^-saww belly (out of hunger). I informed him^-saww with the news of the rock. He^-saww stood up hurriedly and took some water in his^-saww mouth and sprinkled it upon the rock, then struck the pickaxe by his^-saww hand in the middle of the rock, and there was a flash of lightning from it.

فَنَظَرَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فِيهَا إِلَى قُصُورِ الْيَمَنِ وَ بُلْدَانِهَا ثُمَّ ضَرَبَهَا ضَرْبَةً أُخْرَى فَبَرَقَتْ بَرْقَةٌ أُخْرَى نَظَرَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فِيهَا إِلَى قُصُورِ الْعِرَاقِ وَ فَارِسَ وَ مُدُنِهَا ثُمَّ ضَرَبَهَا الثَّالِثَةَ فَانْهَارَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ قِطَعاً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَا الَّذِي رَأَيْتُمْ فِي كُلِّ بَرْقَةٍ قَالُوا رَأَيْنَا فِي الْأُولَى كَذَا وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ كَذَا وَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ كَذَا قَالَ سَيَفْتَحُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ مَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ

The Muslims were looking in it to the castles of Yemen and its cities. Then he^-saww struck it with another strike, and there was another flash of lightning and the Muslims looked at the castles of Iraq and Persia and its cities. Then he^-saww struck the third strike and the rock split into pieces. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘What is that which you saw during every flash of lightning?’ They said, ‘We saw such and such during the first, and such and such during the second, and such and such during the third’. He^-saww said: ‘Allah^-azwj will Grant you victory upon what you saw’.

قَالَ جَابِرٌ وَ كَانَ فِي مَنْزِلِي صَاعٌ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ وَ شَاةٌ مَشْدُودَةٌ فَصِرْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي فَقُلْتُ رَأَيْتُ الْحَجَرَ عَلَى بَطْنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ أَظُنُّهُ جَائِعاً فَلَوْ أَصْلَحْنَا هَذَا الشَّعِيرَ وَ هَذِهِ الشَّاةَ وَ دَعَوْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص إِلَيْنَا كَانَ لَنَا قُرْبَةً عِنْدَ اللَّهِ قَالَتْ فَاذْهَبْ فَأَعْلِمْهُ فَإِنْ أَذِنَ فَعَلْنَاهُ

Jabir said, ‘And there was one Sa’a (unit of measurement) of barley in my house, so I came to my wife and said, ‘I saw the stone upon the belly of Rasool-Allah^-saww and I think he^-saww is hungry, so if we could prepare this barley and this sheep and we invite Rasool-Allah^-saww to us, there would be nearness for us in the Presence of Allah^-azwj’. She said, ‘Go and let him^-saww know, and if he^-saww permits, then we do it’.

فَذَهَبْتُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنْ رَأَيْتَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ غَدَاءَكَ الْيَوْمَ عِنْدَنَا قَالَ وَ مَا عِنْدَكَ قُلْتُ صَاعٌ مِنَ الشَّعِيرِ وَ شَاةٌ قَالَ أَ فَأَصِيرُ إِلَيْكَ مَعَ مَنْ أُحِبُّ أَوْ أَنَا وَحْدِي قَالَ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَقُولَ أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ قُلْتُ بَلْ مَعَ مَنْ تُحِبُّ وَ ظَنَنْتُهُ يُرِيدُ عَلِيّاً ع بِذَلِكَ

I went and said to him^-saww, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! If you^-saww see fit, make your^-saww dinner today with us’. He^-saww said: ‘And what is there with you?’ I said, ‘One Sa’a of barley and a sheep’. He^-saww said: ‘Can I^-saww come to you with the ones I^-saww love or I^-saww alone?’ I disliked to say, ‘You^-saww alone’. I said, ‘But, with the ones you^-saww love’, and I thought he^-saww intended Ali^-asws with that.

فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي فَقُلْتُ أَصْلِحِي أَنْتِ الشَّعِيرَ وَ أَنَا أُصْلِحُ‏ الشَّاةَ فَفَرَغْنَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَ جَعَلْنَا الشَّاةَ كُلَّهَا قِطَعاً فِي قِدْرٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَ مَاءً وَ مِلْحاً وَ خَبَزَتْ أَهْلِي ذَلِكَ الدَّقِيقَ فَصِرْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ أَصْلَحْنَا ذَلِكَ فَوَقَفَ عَلَى شَفِيرِ الْخَنْدَقِ وَ نَادَى بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِهِ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَجِيبُوا دَعْوَةَ جَابِرٍ

I returned to my wife and said, ‘You prepare the barley (bread) and I shall prepare the sheep’. (When) we were free from that we made all the pieces of the sheep to be in one pot and salted water, and my wife made bread of that flour. I went to him^-saww and said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! We have prepared that’. He^-saww stood up on the edge of the ditch and called out at the top of his^-saww voice: ‘O community of the Muslims! Answer the invitation of Jabir!’

فَخَرَجَ جَمِيعُ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ النَّاسُ‏ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَمُرُّ بِمَلَإٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَّا قَالَ أَجِيبُوا دَعْوَةَ جَابِرٍ فَأَسْرَعْتُ إِلَى أَهْلِي‏ وَ قُلْتُ قَدْ أَتَانَا مَا لَا قِبَلَ لَنَا بِهِ وَ عَرَّفْتُهَا خَبَرَ الْجَمَاعَةِ فَقَالَتْ أَ لَسْتَ قَدْ عَرَّفْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا عِنْدَنَا قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَتْ فَلَا عَلَيْكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَفْعَلُ فَكَانَتْ أَهْلِي أَفْقَهَ مِنِّي

The entirety of the Emigrans and the Helpers came out, and the Prophet^-saww came out and the people behind him^-saww did not pass by any one from the people of Medina except said, ‘Answer the invitation of Jabir!’ I hurried to my wife and said, ‘There are coming to us a number we cannot receive with it’, and I explained to her the news of the group. She said, ‘Didn’t you tell Rasool-Allah^-saww what is with us?’ I said, ‘Yes’. She said, ‘Then it is not up to you. He^-saww is more knowing with what he^-saww does’. And my wife was more understanding than I was.

فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص النَّاسَ بِالْجُلُوسِ خَارِجَ الدَّارِ وَ دَخَلَ هُوَ وَ عَلِيٌّ الدَّارَ فَنَظَرَ فِي التَّنُّورِ وَ الْخُبْزُ فِيهِ فَتَفَلَ فِيهِ وَ كَشَفَ الْقِدْرَ فَنَظَرَ فِيهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ أَقْلِعِي مِنَ التَّنُّورِ رَغِيفاً رَغِيفاً وَ نَاوِلِينِي وَاحِداً بَعْدَ وَاحِدٍ فَجَعَلَتْ تَقْلَعُ رَغِيفاً وَ تُنَاوِلُهُ إِيَّاهُ وَ هُوَ وَ عَلِيٌّ يَثْرُدَانِ فِي الْجَفْنَةِ ثُمَّ تَعُودُ الْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى التَّنُّورِ فَتَجِدُ مَكَانَ الرَّغِيفِ الَّذِي قَلَعَتْهُ‏ رَغِيفاً آخَرَ فَلَمَّا امْتَلَأَتِ الْجَفْنَةُ بِالثَّرِيدِ غَرَفَ عَلَيْهَا مِنَ الْقِدْرِ وَ قَالَ أَدْخِلْ عَلَيَّ عَشَرَةً مِنَ النَّاسِ فَدَخَلُوا وَ أَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا

Rasool-Allah^-saww instructed the people with to be seated outside the house, and he^-saww and Ali^-asws entered the house. He^-saww looked into the oven and the bread in it, and he^-saww spat in it, and uncovered the pot and looked into it, then said to the wife (of Jabir): ‘Take out from the oven, loaf by loaf, and give me^-saww one after one’. She went on to take a loaf and gave it to him^-saww, and he^-saww and Ali^-asws were mixing the porridge in the pot. Then the wife (of Jabir) returned to the oven and found in the place of the loaf, which she had taken out, another loaf.

ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا جَابِرُ ائْتِنِي بِالذِّرَاعِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَدْخِلْ عَلَيَّ عَشَرَةً فَدَخَلُوا وَ أَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا وَ الثَّرِيدُ بِحَالِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَاتِ الذِّرَاعَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهِ فَقَالَ أَدْخِلْ عَشَرَةً فَأَكَلُوا وَ شَبِعُوا ثُمَّ قَالَ هَاتِ الذِّرَاعَ قُلْتُ كَمْ لِلشَّاةِ مِنْ ذِرَاعٍ قَالَ ذِرَاعَانِ قُلْتُ قَدْ آتَيْتُ بِثَلَاثِ أَذْرُعٍ

Then he^-saww said: ‘O Jabir! Come to me^-saww with the forearm (of the grilled sheep)’. Then he^-saww said: ‘Enter ten (eaters) in front of me^-saww’. They ate until they were satiated, and the porridge was in its (original) state. Then he^-saww said: ‘Bring the forearm (of the grilled sheep)’. I came to him^-saww with it. He^-saww said: ‘Enter ten’. They ate and were satiated’. Then he^-saww said: ‘Bring the forearm’. I said, ‘How many fore-arm are there of the sheep?’ He^-saww said: ‘Two fore-arms’. I said, ‘I have already given you^-saww three fore-arms’.

قَالَ لَوْ سَكَتَّ لَأَكَلَ الْجَمِيعُ مِنَ الذِّرَاعِ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَدْخُلُ عَشَرَةٌ وَ يَخْرُجُ عَشَرَةٌ حَتَّى أَكَلَ النَّاسُ جَمِيعاً ثُمَّ قَالَ تَعَالَ حَتَّى نَأْكُلَ نَحْنُ وَ أَنْتَ فَأَكَلْتُ أَنَا وَ مُحَمَّدٌ ص وَ عَلِيٌّ ع وَ خَرَجْنَا وَ الْخُبْزُ فِي التَّنُّورِ بِحَالِهِ‏ وَ الْقِدْرُ عَلَى حَالِهَا وَ الثَّرِيدُ فِي الْجَفْنَةِ عَلَى حَالِهِ فَعِشْنَا أَيَّاماً بِذَلِكَ

He^-saww said: ‘If you had remained silent, the entirety of them would have eaten from the forearm’. He^-saww did not cease to enter ten and exit ten until all of the people had eaten. Then he^-saww said: ‘Come until us^-asws and you eat’. I ate, and Muhammad^-saww and Ali^-asws, and we went out, and the bread in the oven was upon its (original) state, and the pot was upon its (original) state, and the porridge in the pot was upon its (original) state, and we had dinner for days with that’’.[75]

26- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيّاً جَاءَ إِلَيْهِ فَشَكَا إِلَيْهِ نُضُوبَ مَاءِ بِئْرِهِمْ فَأَخَذَ حَصَاةً أَوْ حَصَاتَيْنِ وَ فَرَكَهَا بِأَنَامِلِهِ ثُمَّ أَعْطَاهَا الْأَعْرَابِيَّ وَ قَالَ ارْمِهَا بِالْبِئْرِ فَلَمَّا رَمَاهَا فِيهَا فَارَ الْمَاءُ إِلَى رَأْسِهَا

‘Al Kjaraij Wa Al Jaraih’ – It is reported that a Bedouin came to him^-saww complaining to him^-saww of the depletion of the water of their well. He^-saww grabbed a pebble or two pebbles and rubbed them with his^-saww nails, then gave them to the Bedouin and said: ‘Throw these in the well’. When he threw them, the water overflowed to its top’’.[76]

27- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الصَّيْدَائِيِ‏ صَاحِبِ النَّبِيِّ ص‏ أَنَّهُ بَعَثَ جَيْشاً إِلَى قَوْمِي فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ارْدُدِ الْجَيْشَ وَ أَنَا لَكَ بِإِسْلَامِ قَوْمِي‏ فَرَدَّهُ فَكَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِمْ كِتَاباً فَقَدِمَ وَفْدُهُمْ بِإِسْلَامِهِمْ فَقَالَ ص إِنَّكَ لَمُطَاعٌ فِي قَوْمِكَ قُلْتُ بَلِ اللَّهُ‏ هَدَاهُمْ لِلْإِسْلَامِ

‘Al Kjaraij Wa Al Jaraih’ – It is reported from Ziyad Bin Al-Haris Al-Saydani, a companion of the Prophet^-saww that he^-saww sent an army to my people, so I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Return the army and I (take responsibility) of the Islam of my people’. He^-saww returned it. He wrote a letter to them and a delegate of theirs came with their (accepting) Islam. He^-saww said: ‘You are (credited) regarding the obedience of your people’. I said, ‘But Allah^-azwj Guided them to Islam’.

فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ كِتَاباً يَأْمُرُنِي قُلْتُ مُرْ لِي بِشَيْ‏ءٍ مِنْ صَدَقَاتِهِمْ فَكَتَبَ‏ وَ كَانَ فِي سَفَرٍ لَهُ فَنَزَلَ مَنْزِلًا فَأَتَاهُ أَهْلُ ذَلِكَ الْمَنْزِلِ يَشْكُونَ عَامِلَهُمْ فَقَالَ لَا خَيْرَ فِي الْإِمَارَةِ لِرَجُلٍ مُؤْمِنٍ

He^-saww wrote a letter to me instructing me. I said, ‘Instruct for me with something from their charities’. He^-saww wrote, and he^-saww was in a journey of his^-saww and he^-saww descended at an encampment and the people of that encampment came to him^-saww complaining of their office bearers. He^-saww said: ‘There is no good in the building (except) for a Momin man’.

‏ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ آخَرُ فَقَالَ أَعْطِنِي فَقَالَ مَنْ سَأَلَ النَّاسَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى فَصُدَاعٌ فِي الرَّأْسِ وَ دَاءٌ فِي الْبَطْنِ فَقَالَ أَعْطِنِي مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يَرْضَ فِيهَا بِحُكْمِ نَبِيٍّ وَ لَا غَيْرِهِ حَتَّى حَكَمَ هُوَ فِيهَا فَجَزَّأَهَا ثَمَانِيَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ مِنْ تِلْكَ الْأَجْزَاءِ أَعْطَيْنَاكَ حَقَّكَ

Then another came to him^-saww and said, ‘Give me (something)’. He^-saww said: ‘One who asks the people of the back of a rich one, will get headache in the head and disease in the belly’. He said, ‘Give me from the charity’. He^-saww said: ‘Allah^-azwj is not Pleased in it with the decision of a Prophet^-as nor someone else until He^-azwj Decides in it. I^-saww have segmented it into eight segments, so if you were from those segments, I^-saww shall give you your right’.

قَالَ الصَّيْدَائِيُ‏ فَدَخَلَ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْ‏ءٌ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِالْكِتَابَيْنِ قَالَ فَدُلَّنِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ أُؤَمِّرُهُ عَلَيْكُمْ فَدَلَلْتُهُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْوَفْدِ ثُمَّ قُلْنَا إِنَّ لَنَا بِئْراً إِذَا كَانَ الشِّتَاءُ وَسِعَنَا مَاؤُهَا وَ اجْتَمَعْنَا عَلَيْهَا وَ إِذَا كَانَ الصَّيْفُ قَلَّ مَاؤُهَا وَ تَفَرَّقْنَا عَلَى مِيَاهٍ حَوْلَنَا وَ قَدْ أَسْلَمْنَا وَ كُلُّ مَنْ حَوْلَنَا لَنَا أَعْدَاءٌ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ لَنَا فِي بِئْرِنَا أَنْ لَا تَمْنَعَنَا مَاءَهَا فَنَجْتَمِعَ عَلَيْهَا وَ لَا نَتَفَرَّقَ

Al-Saydani said, ‘Something from that entered into my soul and I came to him^-saww with the two letters. He^-saww said: ‘Point me upon a man I^-saww can place in charge upon you’. I pointed upon a man from the delegation, then we said, ‘There is a well for us, whenever it is the winter; its water is capacious and we gather upon it, and whenever it is summer, its water is little and we separate upon waters around us, and we have (now) become Muslims, and everyone around us is an enemy of ours. Supplicate to Allah^-azwj for us regarding our well that its water is not prevented from us so we can gather upon it and do not separate’.

فَدَعَا بِسَبْعِ حَصَيَاتٍ فَفَرَكَهُنَّ فِي يَدِهِ وَ دَعَا فِيهِنَّ ثُمَّ قَالَ اذْهَبُوا بِهَذِهِ الْحَصَيَاتِ فَإِذَا أَتَيْتُمُ الْبِئْرَ فَأَلْقُوا وَاحِدَةً وَ اذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ

He^-saww called for pebbles and rubbed them in his^-saww hand and supplicated regarding these, then said: ‘Go with these pebbles and when you come to the well then throw one and mention the Name of Allah^-azwj’.

قَالَ زِيَادٌ فَفَعَلْنَا مَا قَالَ لَنَا فَمَا اسْتَطَعْنَا بَعْدُ أَنْ نَنْظُرَ إِلَى قَعْرِ الْبِئْرِ بِبَرَكَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ‏

Ziyad said, ‘We did what he^-saww had said to us and we were no longer able to look at the bottom of the well afterwards due to the Blessings of Rasool-Allah^-saww’’.[77]

28- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب‏ رَأَى ص عَمْرَةَ بِنْتَ رَوَاحَةَ تَذْهَبُ بِتُمَيْرَاتٍ إِلَى أَبِيهَا يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ فَقَالَ اجْعَلِيهَا عَلَى يَدِي ثُمَّ جَعَلَهَا عَلَى نَطْعٍ فَجَعَلَ يَرْبُو حَتَّى أَكَلَ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثَةُ آلَافِ رَجُلٍ

He^-saww saw Amrah Bint Rawha going with some dates to her father on the day of (battle of) Al-Khandaq. He^-saww said: ‘Make these to be in my^-saww hands’. Then he^-saww made these to be upon types and went on nourishing (multiplying) until three thousand men had eaten from it.

وَ مِنْهُ حَدِيثُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع‏ وَ قَدْ طَبَخَ لَهُ ضِلْعاً وَقْتَ بَيْعَةِ الْعَشِيرَةِ

And from it is a Hadeeth of Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws, and some ribs had been cooked for him^-asws at the time of the allegiance of the clan.

الْبُخَارِيُّ عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ فِي حَدِيثِ حَفْرِ الْخَنْدَقِ‏ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُ ضَعْفَ النَّبِيِّ ص طَبَخْتُ جَدْياً وَ خَبَزْتُ صَاعَ شَعِيرٍ وَ قُلْتُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ‏ تُكْرِمُنِي بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا فَقَالَ لَا تَرْفَعِ الْقِدْرَ مِنَ النَّارِ وَ لَا الْخُبْزَ مِنَ التَّنُّورِ

Al-Bukhari, from Jabir Al-Ansary in a Hadeeth of digging of the ditch – ‘When I saw the weakness of the Prophet^-saww, I cooked a young goat and made bread from one Sa’a of barley, and I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Honour me for such and such (meal)’. He^-saww said: ‘Do not raise the pot from the fire, nor the bread from the oven’.

ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ قُومُوا إِلَى بَيْتِ جَابِرٍ فَأَتَوْا وَ هُمْ سَبْعُمِائَةِ رَجُلٍ وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ ثَمَانُمِائَةٍ وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أَلْفُ رَجُلٍ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَوْضِعُ الْجُلُوسِ فَكَانَ يُشِيرُ إِلَى الْحَائِطِ وَ الْحَائِطُ يَبْعُدُ حَتَّى تَمَكَّنُوا فَجَعَلَ يُطْعِمُهُمْ بِنَفْسِهِ حَتَّى شَبِعُوا وَ لَمْ يَزَلْ يَأْكُلُ وَ يُهْدِي إِلَى قَوْمِنَا أَجْمَعَ فَلَمَّا خَرَجُوا أَتَيْتُ الْقِدْرَ فَإِذَا هُوَ مَمْلُوٌّ وَ التَّنُّورُ مَحْشُوٌّ

Then he^-saww said: ‘O people! Arise to go to the house of Jabir!’ They came, and they were seven hundred men, and in (another) report, eight hundred, and in (another) report, a thousand men. There did not happen to be a place to sit and he^-saww indicated to the wall, and the wall was distant until it was possible. He^-saww went on to feed them himself until they were satiated, and did not cease to eat and guide our people altogether. When they went out, I went to the pot and there it was filled, and the oven was packed.

رَوَى أَنَسٌ‏ أَنَّهُ أَرْسَلَنِي أَبُو طَلْحَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص لَمَّا رَأَى فِيهِ أَثَرَ الْجُوعِ فَلَمَّا رَآنِي قَالَ أَرْسَلَكَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ لِمَنْ مَعَهُ قُومُوا فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ قَدْ جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِالنَّاسِ وَ لَيْسَ عِنْدَنَا مِنَ الطَّعَامِ مَا نُطْعِمُهُمْ فَقَالَ ص يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ هَلُمِّي بِمَا عِنْدَكِ فَجَاءَتْ بِأَقْرَاصٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَفُتَ‏ وَ عَصَرَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ عُكَّةَ سَمْنٍ

It is reported by Anas, ‘Abu Talha sent me to the Prophet^-saww when he saw in him^-saww the effects of hunger. When he^-saww saw me he^-saww said: ‘Abu Talha has sent you?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He^-saww said to the ones who were with him^-saww: ‘Arise’. Abu Talha said, ‘O Umm Saleem! Rasool-Allah^-saww has come with the people, and there isn’t (enough) food with us; we can feed them with’. He^-saww said: ‘O Umm Saleem! Bring whatever is with you’. She came with some discs of barley (bread) and he^-saww instructed with it, and she covered it, and Umm Saleem made a jar of sauce out of butter.

فَأَخَذَهَا النَّبِيُّ ص ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِ الثَّرِيدِ وَ كَانَ يَدْعُو بِعَشَرَةٍ عَشَرَةٍ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا وَ كَانُوا سَبْعِينَ أَوْ ثَمَانِينَ رَجُلًا

The Prophet^-saww grabbed it and placed his^-saww hand upon the top of the porridge, and kept calling ten by ten and they ate until they were satiated, and they were seventy or eighty men.

وَ رَوَى‏ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فِي أَصْحَابِ الصُّفَّةِ وَ قَدْ وُضِعَتْ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ صَحْفَةٌ فَوَضَعَ النَّبِيُّ ص يَدَهُ فِيهَا فَأَكَلُوا وَ بَقِيَتْ مَلْأَى فِيهَا أَثَرُ الْأَصَابِعِ

And it is reported by Abu Hureyra regarding the companions of Al-Saffah (the platform), ‘A platter had been placed in front of them and the Prophet^-saww placed his^-saww hand in it and they ate, and there remained in it only the impact of the fingers’.

و مثله حديث ثابت البناني عن أنس‏ في عرس زينب بنت جحش

And similar to is the Hadeeth of Sabit Al-Banany from Anas regarding the wedding of Zainab Bint Jahash.

وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ أُمَّ شَرِيكٍ أَهْدَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص عُكَّةً فِيهَا سَمْنٌ فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ ص الْخَادِمَ فَفَرَغَهَا وَ رَدَّهَا خَالِيَةً فَجَاءَتْ أُمُّ شَرِيكٍ وَ وَجَدَتِ الْعُكَّةَ مَلْأَى فَلَمْ تَزَلْ تَأْخُذُ مِنْهَا السَّمْنَ زَمَاناً طَوِيلًا وَ أَبْقَى لَهَا شَرَفاً

And it is reported that Umm Shareek sent a jar to the Prophet^-saww wherein was some butter. The Prophet^-saww instructed the servant, and he freed it and returned it empty. Umm Shareek came and found the jar filled, and did not cease taking the butter from it for a long time, and the honour remained for her.

وَ أَعْطَى ص لِعَجُوزٍ قَصْعَةً فِيهَا عَسَلٌ فَكَانَتْ تَأْكُلُ وَ لَا يَفْنَى فَيَوْماً مِنَ الْأَيَّامِ حَوَّلَتْ مَا كَانَ فِيهَا إِلَى إِنَاءٍ فَفَنِيَ سَرِيعاً فَجَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص وَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ‏ ص إِنَّ الْأَوَّلَ كَانَ مِنْ فِعْلِ اللَّهِ وَ صُنْعِهِ وَ الثَّانِيَ كَانَ مِنْ فِعْلِكِ

And he^-saww gave a bowl to an old woman wherein was some honey, and she used to eat and it did not finish. One day, from the days, she transferred whatever was in it to (another) container), and it finished quickly. She came to the Prophet^-saww and informed him^-saww with that. He^-saww said: ‘The first was from the Deed of Allah^-azwj and of His^-azwj Making, and the second was from your deed’.

وَ قَالَ جَابِرٌ إِنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ص يَسْتَطْعِمُهُ فطعمه [فَأَطْعَمَهُ‏] وَسْقَ شَعِيرٍ فَمَا زَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ وَ امْرَأَتُهُ وَ وَصِيفُهُمَا حَتَّى كَالَهُ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ص فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ لَوْ لَمْ تَكِيلُوهُ لَأَكَلْتُمْ مِنْهُ وَ لَقَامَ بِكُمْ

And Jabir said, ‘A man came to the Prophet^-saww to feed him. He^-saww fed him some barley. The man and his wife did not cease to eat from it and they described it until they measured it. The Prophet^-saww came and he informed him^-saww. He^-saww said: ‘If you had not weighed it, you would have eaten from it (forever), and it would have lasted with you’.

جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَ الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ عَازِبٍ وَ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ الْأَكْوَعِ وَ الْمِسْوَرُ بْنُ مَخْرَمَةَ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ ص بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فِي أَلْفٍ وَ خَمْسِمِائَةٍ وَ ذَلِكَ فِي حَرٍّ شَدِيدٍ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا بِهَا مِنْ مَاءٍ وَ الْوَادِي يَابِسٌ وَ قُرَيْشٌ فِي بَلْدَحٍ‏ فِي مَاءٍ كَثِيرٍ فَدَعَا بِدَلْوٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ مِنَ الدَّلْوِ وَ مَضْمَضَ فَاهُ ثُمَّ مَجَّ فِيهِ وَ أَمَرَ أَنْ يُصَبَّ فِي الْبِئْرِ فَجَاشَتْ فَسَقَيْنَا وَ اسْتَقَيْنَا

Jabir Bin Abdullah^-ar and Al-Bara’a Bin Aazib and Salmah Bin Al-Akwa and Al-Masour Bin Makhramah, ‘When the Prophet^-saww encamped at Al-Hudaybiyya among one thousand the five hundred, it was during severe heat. They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! There is no water at it and the valley is dry, and Quraysh are in Baldah among a lot of water’. He^-saww called for a bucket of water and washed from the bucket and rinsed his^-saww mouth, then poured into it, and instructed that it be poured into the well. It filled up and we quenched and provided.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ فَنَزَعَ سَهْماً مِنْ كِنَانَتِهِ فَأَلْقَاهُ فِي الْبِئْرِ فَفَارَتْ بِالْمَاءِ حَتَّى جَعَلُوا يَغْتَرِفُونَ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ مِنْهَا وَ هُمْ جُلُوسٌ عَلَى شَفَتِهَا

And in a report, ‘He^-saww took an arrow from his^-saww quiver and threw it into the well, and it overflowed with the water until they went on scooping with their hands from it, and they were seated upon its edge’.

أَبُو عَوَانَةَ وَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّهُ ص أَعْطَى نَاجِيَةَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو نُشَّابَةً وَ أَمَرَ أَنْ يَغْرِزَهَا فِي الْبِئْرِ فَامْتَلَأَ الْبِئْرُ مَاءً فَأَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ وَ أَنْشَأَتْ‏

يَا أَيُّهَا الْمَاتِحُ دَلْوِي دُونَكَا		إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يَحْمَدُونَكَا
يُثْنُونَ خَيْراً وَ يُمَجِّدُونَكَا		أَرْجُوكَ لِلْخَيْرِ كَمَا يَرْجُونَكَا

Abu Awanah and Abu Hureyra (fabricator), ‘He gave Najiyah Bin Umar and Nashabah and instructed to place it in the well, and the well filled up with water. A woman came over and prosed, ‘O you who draw my bucket of water, here before you, I have seen the people praising you. They speak well of you and glorify you. I hope for good from you, just as they hope for good from you’.

قَدْ عَلِمَتْ جَارِيَةٌ بِمَائِيَّهْ‏		أَنِّي أَنَا الْمَاتِحُ وَ اسْمِي نَاجِيَهْ‏
وَ طَعْنَةٌ ذَاتُ رَشَاشٍ وَاهِيَهْ‏		طَعَنْتُهَا تَحْتَ صُدُورِ الْعَاتِيَهْ‏

Najiya replied to her, ‘A young woman from Yemen has certainly known by my water that I am the one who draws the water, and my name is Najiya. And with a thrust that sent forth a feeble spray,I struck her beneath the chests of the arrogant’.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أَنَّهُ دَفَعَهَا إِلَى الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ فَقَالَ اغْرِزْ هَذَا السَّهْمَ فِي بَعْضِ قَلْبِ‏ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَجَاءَتْ قُرَيْشٌ وَ مَعَهُمْ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو فَأَشْرَفُوا عَلَى الْقَلِيبِ وَ الْعُيُونُ تَنْبُعُ تَحْتَ السَّهْمِ فَقَالَتْ مَا رَأَيْنَا كَالْيَوْمِ قَطُّ وَ هَذَا مِنْ سِحْرِ مُحَمَّدٍ قَلِيلٌ فَلَمَّا أَمَرَ النَّاسَ بِالرَّحِيلِ قَالَ خُذُوا حَاجَتَكُمْ مِنَ الْمَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلْبَرَاءِ اذْهَبْ فَرُدَّ السَّهْمَ فَلَمَّا فَرَغُوا وَ ارْتَحَلُوا أَخَذَ الْبَرَاءُ السَّهْمَ فَجَفَّ الْمَاءُ كَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ هُنَاكَ مَاءٌ

And in a report, he^-saww handed it to Al-Bara’a Bin Azib and said: ‘Implant this arrow in one of the wells of Al-Hudaybiyya’. Quraysh came and with them was Suheyl Bin Amro and they overlooked upon the well and the springs gushing out from beneath the arrow, and said, ‘We have not seen like today at all, and this is from the little sorcery of Muhammad^-saww’. When he^-saww ordered the people with the departure, he^-saww said: ‘Take your need from the water’. Then he^-saww said to Al-Bara’a: ‘Go and return the arrow’. When they were free and departed, Al Bara’a took the arrow and the water dried up as if there did not happen to be any water over there’.

أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع‏ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص أَمَرَنِي فِي بَعْضِ غَزَوَاتِهِ وَ قَدْ نَفِدَ الْمَاءُ يَا عَلِيُّ قُمْ وَ ائْتِ بِتَوْرٍ قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى وَ يَدِي مَعَهَا فِي التَّوْرِ فَقَالَ انْبُعْ فَنَبَعَ

Amir Al-Momineen^-asws: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww instructed me^-asws during one of his^-saww military expedition and the water had depleted: ‘O Ali^-asws! Arise and bring a small container’. I^-asws came to him^-saww and he^-saww placed his^-saww right hand and my^-asws hand with it into the container. He^-saww said: ‘Spring forth!’ It sprang’.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ وَ أَنَسٍ‏ فَجَعَلَ الْمَاءُ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ كَأَنَّهُ الْعُيُونُ فَشَرِبْنَا وَ وَسِعْنَا وَ ذَلِكَ فِي يَوْمِ الشَّجَرَةِ وَ كَانُوا فِي أَلْفٍ وَ خَمْسِمِائَةِ رَجُلٍ

And in a report of Saalim Bin Abu Al-Ja’ad and Anas (fabricator), ‘The water went on to come out from between his^-saww fingers and if it was a spring. We drank and were satiated, and that was during the day of the Tree (Al-Hudaybiyya), and it was among one thousand five hundred men.

وَ شَكَا أَصْحَابُهُ ص إِلَيْهِ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ مِنَ الْعَطَشِ فَدَفَعَ سَهْماً إِلَى رَجُلٍ فَقَالَ انْزِلْ فَاغْرِزْهُ فِي الرَّكِيِّ فَفَعَلَ فَفَارَ الْمَاءُ فَطَمَا إِلَى أَعْلَى الرَّكِيِّ فَارْتَوَى مِنْهُ ثَلَاثُونَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ فِي دَوَابِّهِمْ

And his^-saww companions complained to him^-saww during the military expedition of Tabuk of the thirst. He^-saww handed over an arrow to a man and said: ‘Descend and implant it in the well’. He did so and the water flowed and it came to the top of the well. Thirty thousand men saturated their animals (as well).

وَ وَضَعَ ع يَدَهُ تَحْتَ وَشَلٍ بِوَادِي الْمُشَقَّقِ‏ فَجَعَلَ يَنْصَبُّ فِي يَدَيْهِ فَانْخَرَقَ الْمَاءُ حَتَّى سَمِعَ لَهُ حِسٌّ كَحِسِّ الصَّوَاعِقِ فَشَرِبَ النَّاسُ وَ اسْتَقَوْا حَاجَتَهُمْ مِنْهُ

And he^-saww placed his^-saww hand beneath a trickle of water in Al-Mashaqaq valley, and went on setting up in his^-saww hands until the water gushed out until there was heard for it the sound like the sound of the lightning. The people drank and provided their needs from it’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لَئِنْ بَقِيتُمْ أَوْ بَقِيَ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ لَيَسْمَعَنَّ بِهَذَا الْوَادِي وَ هُوَ أَخْصَبُ مَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَ مَا خَلْفَهُ قِيلَ وَ هُوَ إِلَى الْيَوْمِ كَمَا قَالَهُ ص

Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘If you were (all) to remain or (even) one of you were to remain, let him be heard with this valley and he would fertilise what is in front of him and what is behind him’. It was said, ‘And it is up to today, just as he^-saww said’.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ كَانَ يَتَفَجَّرُ الْمَاءُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ لَمَّا وَضَعَ يَدَهُ فِيهَا حَتَّى شَرِبَ الْجَيْشُ الْعَظِيمُ وَ سَقَوْا وَ تَزَوَّدُوا فِي غَزْوَةِ بَنِي الْمُصْطَلِقِ

And in a report of Abu Qatadah, ‘The water was bursting forth from between his^-saww fingers when he^-saww placed his^-saww hands in it until the large army drank, and they quenched and provided in the military of Banu Mustaliq’.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ‏ أَنَّهُ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَجَعَلَ الْمَاءُ يَفُورُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ فَقَالَ‏ حَيَّ عَلَى الْوُضُوءِ وَ الْبَرَكَةِ مِنَ اللَّهِ فَتَوَضَّأَ الْقَوْمُ كُلُّهُمْ

And in a report of Alqamah Bin Abdullah, ‘He^-saww placed his^-saww hand in the container and the water went on to burst forth from between his^-saww fingers. He^-saww said: ‘Come to the ablution (Wudu’u) and the Blessings from Allah^-azwj’. The people performed their Wudu’u, all of them’.

وَ فِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي لَيْلَى‏ شَكَوْنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص مِنَ الْعَطَشِ فَأَمَرَ بِحُفْرَةٍ فَحُفِرَتْ فَوَضَعَ عَلَيْهَا نَطْعاً وَ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى النَّطْعِ وَ قَالَ هَلْ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَقَالَ لِصَاحِبِ الْإِدَاوَةِ صُبَّ الْمَاءَ عَلَى كَفِّي وَ اذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَفَعَلَ فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ الْمَاءَ يَنْبُعُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص حَتَّى رَوِيَ الْقَوْمُ وَ سَقَوْا رُكَّابَهُمْ

And in a Hadeeth of Abu Layli, ‘We complained to the Prophet^-saww of the thirst, so he^-saww instructed with digging a hole. We dug and he^-saww placed a cover upon it and placed his^-saww hand upon the cover and said: ‘Is there any water?’ He said to the owner of the water-skin: ‘Pour the water upon my^-saww palm and mentioned the Name of Allah^-azwj’. He did so, and the water was seen to spring out from between the fingers of Rasool-Allah^-saww until the people were saturated and they quenched their rides’.

وَ شَكَا إِلَيْهِ الْجَيْشُ فِي بَعْضِ غَزَوَاتِهِ فِقْدَانَ الْمَاءِ فَوَضَعَ ص يَدَهُ فِي الْقَدَحِ فَضَاقَ الْقَدَحُ عَنْ يَدِهِ فَقَالَ لِلنَّاسِ اشْرَبُوا فَشَرِبَ الْجَيْشُ وَ أَسْقَوْا وَ تَوَضَّئُوا وَ مَلَئُوا الْمَزَاوِدَ

And the army complained to him^-saww during one of his^-saww military expeditions of the loss of the water. He^-saww placed his^-saww hand in the cup and the cup tightened from his^-saww hand and he^-saww said to the people: ‘Drink!’ The army drank and quenched and washed and filled the water-skins’’.

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ سَمِعْتُ جَابِراً يَقُولُ‏ جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَعُودُنِي وَ أَنَا مَرِيضٌ لَا أَعْقِلُ فَتَوَضَّأَ وَ صَبَّ عَلَيَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ فَعَقَلْتُ الْخَبَرَ

Muhammad Bin Al-Munkadar, ‘I heard Jabir said, ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww came to console me and I was sick and had no intellect (insane/unwise). He^-saww washed and poured upon me from his^-saww Wudu’u, and I had (healthy) intellect’ – the Hadeeth.

وَ شَكَا إِلَيْهِ ص طُفَيْلٌ الْعَامِرِيُّ الْجُذَامَ فَدَعَا بِرَكْوَةٍ ثُمَّ تَفَلَ فِيهَا وَ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ بِهِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَعَادَ صَحِيحاً

And Tufayl Al-Aamiry complained to him of the leprosy, so he^-saww called for a container then spat in it and instructed him to wash with it. He washed and his health returned.

وَ أَتَاهُ ص حَسَّانُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الْخُزَاعِيُّ مَجْذُوماً فَدَعَا لَهُ بِمَاءٍ فَتَفَلَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَصَبَّهُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ فَخَرَجَ مِنْ عِلَّتِهِ فَأَسْلَمَ قَوْمُهُ

And Hassan Bin Amro Al-Khuzaie came to him^-saww with leprosy, so he^-saww called for water for him and spat in it, then instructed him to pour it upon himself, and he came out from his sickness, and his people became Muslims.

وَ أَتَاهُ ص قَيْسٌ اللَّخْمِيُّ وَ بِهِ بَرَصٌ فَتَفَلَ عَلَيْهِ فَبَرَأَ

And Qays Al-Lakhmy came to him^-saww and there was vitiligo with him, and he^-saww applied saliva on him and he was cured.

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَاطِبٍ‏ انْكَبَّ الْقِدْرُ عَلَى سَاعِدِي فِي الصِّغَرِ فَأَتَتْ بِي أُمِّي إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَتْ فَتَفَلَ فِي فِيَّ وَ مَسَحَ عَلَى ذِرَاعِي وَ جَعَلَ يَقُولُ وَ يَتْفُلُ أَذْهِبِ الْبَأْسَ رَبَّ النَّاسِ وَ اشْفِ أَنْتَ الشَّافِي لَا شَافِيَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ شِفَاءً لَا يُغَادِرُ سُقْماً فَبَرَأَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ

Muhammad Bin Khatib, ‘The pot overturned upon my shoulder when I was little (scalding me), so my mother came with me to the Prophet^-saww. She said, ‘He^-saww applied spit in my mouth and wiped upon my forearm and went on saying and applying saliva: ‘Remove the evil, Lord^-azwj of the people, and heal. You^-azwj are the Healer, there is no healer except You^-azwj, with such a healing, a disease does not return’. And I was cured by the Permission of Allah^-azwj’.

الْفَائِقُ‏ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص مَسَحَ عَلَى رَأْسِ غُلَامٍ وَ قَالَ عِشْ قَرْناً فَعَاشَ مِائَةً

Al-Faiq, ‘The Prophet^-saww wiped upon the head of a boy and said: ‘Live for a century’. He lived to a hundred years’.

وَ إِنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتْهُ ص بِصَبِيٍّ لَهَا لِلتَّبَرُّكِ وَ كَانَتْ بِهِ عَاهَةٌ فَمَسَحَ يَدَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِ الصَّبِيِّ فَاسْتَوَى شَعْرُهُ وَ بَرَأَ دَاؤُهُ

And a woman came to him^-saww with a child of her for the Blessing, and there was a disability with him. He^-saww wiped his^-saww head upon the head of the child and his hair evened out (grew back) and his illness was cured’.

وَ رَوَى ابْنُ بَطَّةَ أَنَّ الصَّبِيَّ كَانَ الْمُهَلَّبَ وَ بَلَغَ ذَلِكَ أَهْلَ الْيَمَامَةِ فَأَتَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مُسَيْلَمَةَ بِصَبِيٍّ لَهَا فَمَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ فَصَلِعَ وَ بَقِيَ نَسْلُهُ إِلَى يَوْمِنَا هَذَا

And it is reported by Ibn Batah that the child was satirised, and that reached the people of Yamama, so the wife of Musaylah came with a child of hers and he^-saww wiped its head and he became bald and his offspring remains up to this day of ours’.

وَ قُطِعَ يَدُ أَنْصَارِيٍّ وَ هُوَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَتِيكٍ فِي حَرْبِ أُحُدٍ فَأَلْزَقَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ نَفَخَ عَلَيْهِ فَصَارَ كَمَا كَانَ

And a hand of the Helper was cut and he was Abdullah Bin Ateek, during the battle of Ohad, and Rasool-Allah^-saww adhered it and blew upon it and it became just as it used to be.

وَ تَفَلَ ص فِي عَيْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع وَ هُوَ أَرْمَدُ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ فَصَحَّ مِنْ وَقْتِهِ

And he^-saww applied saliva in the eye of Ali^-asws and he^-asws had conjunctivitis on the day of Khyber, and it became healthy from its time.

وَ فُقِئَ فِي أُحُدٍ عَيْنُ قَتَادَةَ بْنِ رِبْعِيٍّ أَوْ قَتَادَةَ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الْغَوْثَ الْغَوْثَ فَأَخَذَهَا بِيَدِهِ فَرَدَّهَا مَكَانَهَا فَكَانَتْ أَصَحَّهُمَا وَ كَانَتْ تَعْتَلُّ الْبَاقِيَةُ وَ لَا تَعْتَلُّ الْمَرْدُودَةُ فَلُقِّبَ ذَا الْعَيْنَيْنِ أَيْ لَهُ عَيْنَانِ مَكَانَ الْوَاحِدَةِ ‏

And an eye of Qatadah Bin Rabie, or Qatadah Bin Al-Numan the Helper was poked out during (the battle of) Ohad, so he said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! The relief, the relief!’ He^-saww grabbed it by his^-saww hand and returned it back into its place, and it became the healthier of the two, and the remaining one became tired and the returned one did not become tired, and he was teknonymed at ‘One with two eyes’, i.e. for him are two eyes in place of the one.

Al-Kharnaq Al Awsy said (a poem), ‘And among us is the one whose eye flowed down upon his cheek, and it was restored by the hand of Al Mustafa^-sawwwith the finest restoration. So it returned to the way it had been, in the best of its condition. How blessed is my eye, and how blessed is my hand’.

وَ أُصِيبَتْ رِجْلُ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ فَمَسَحَهَا بِيَدِهِ فَبَرَأَتْ مِنْ حِينِهَا وَ أَصَابَ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ مَسْلَمَةَ يَوْمَ قَتَلَ كَعْبَ بْنَ الْأَشْرَفِ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ فِي عَيْنَيْ رُكْبَتَيْهِ‏ فَمَسَحَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِيَدِهِ فَلَمْ تَبِنْ مِنْ أُخْتِهَا وَ أَصَابَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أُنَيْسٍ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ فِي عَيْنِهِ فَمَسَحَهَا فَمَا عُرِفَتْ مِنَ الْأُخْرَى

And a man injured one of his^-saww companions, and he^-saww wiped his^-saww hand and he was cured. And Muhammad Bin Maslamah was injured on the day he killed Ka’ab Al Ashraf, similar to that in his eye, so Rasool-Allah^-saww wiped it with his^-saww hands and it could not be differentiated from its counterpart. And Abdullah Bin Aneys was injured similar to that in his eyes, and he^-saww wiped it, and it could not be recognised from the other.

عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ زُهْرَةَ قَالَ: أَسْلَمَتْ فَأُصِيبَ بَصَرُهَا فَقَالُوا لَهَا أَصَابَكِ اللَّاتُ وَ الْعُزَّى فَرَدَّ ص عَلَيْهَا بَصَرَهَا فَقَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ لَوْ كَانَ مَا جَاءَ مُحَمَّدٌ خَيْراً مَا سَبَقَتْنَا إِلَيْهِ زُهْرَةُ فَنَزَلَ‏ وَ قالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَوْ كانَ خَيْراً ما سَبَقُونا إِلَيْهِ‏ الْآيَةَ

Urwah Bin Al-Zubeyr about Zuhra. He said, ‘She became a Muslim and her sight was damaged. They said to her, ‘Al Laat and Al Uzza afflicted you’. He^-saww returned her sight to her. Quraysh said, ‘If what Muhammad^-saww had come with good, we would not have sent Zuhra to him^-saww’. So, it was Revealed: And those who commit Kufr say for those who believe, ‘If it was good, they would not have preceded us to it’. [46:11]’ – the Verse. 

وَ أَنْفَذَ النَّبِيُّ ص عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَتِيكٍ إِلَى حِصْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ الْيَهُودِيِ‏ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ بَغْتَةً فَإِذَا أَبُو رَافِعٍ فِي بَيْتٍ مُظْلِمٍ لَا يُدْرَى أَيْنَ هُوَ فَقَالَ أَبَا رَافِعٍ قَالَ مَنْ هَذَا فَأَهْوَى نَحْوَ الصَّوْتِ فَضَرَبَهُ ضَرْبَةً وَ خَرَجَ فَصَاحَ أَبُو رَافِعٍ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا الصَّوْتُ يَا أَبَا رَافِعٍ‏ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَجُلًا فِي الْبَيْتِ ضَرَبَنِي فَضَرَبَهُ ضَرْبَةً أُخْرَى

And the Prophet^-saww sent Abdullah to the fortress of Abu Rafie the Jew. He entered unto him suddenly and there was Abu Rafie in a dark room. He did not know where he was, so he said, ‘Abu Rafie!’ He said, ‘Who is this?’ He swooped around the voice and struck with a strike and went out. Abu Rafie shouted. Then he entered unto him and said, ‘What is this voice, O Abu Rafie?’ He said, ‘A man in the room struck me’. So, he struck him with another strike.

فَكَانَ يَنْزِلُ فَانْكَسَرَ سَاقُهُ فَعَصَبَهَا فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَحَدَّثَهُ قَالَ ابْسُطْ رِجْلَكَ فَبَسَطَهَا فَمَسَحَهَا فَبَرَأَتْ

He was descending, and he broke his leg, so he bound it. When he came to the Prophet^-saww, he narrated to him^-saww. He^-saww said: ‘Spread out your leg’. He spread it, and he^-saww wiped it, and it was cured’.

وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص تَفَلَ فِي بِئْرٍ مُعَطَّلَةٍ فَفَاضَتْ حَتَّى سُقِيَ مِنْهَا بِغَيْرِ دَلْوٍ وَ لَا رِشَاءٍ

And it is reported that the Prophet^-saww spat in an abandoned well, and it filled up until it was quenched from it without any bucket nor a rope.

وَ كَانَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مُتَبَرِّزَةً وَ فِيهَا وَقَاحَةٌ فَرَأَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يَأْكُلُ فَسَأَلَتْ لُقْمَةً مِنْ فَلْقِ‏ فِيهِ فَأَعْطَاهَا فَصَارَتْ ذَاتَ حَيَاءٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ

A woman was embittered and there was insolence in her. She saw Rasool-Allah^-saww eating and she asked for a morsel from the middle of his^-saww mouth. He^-saww gave it to her, and she became a modest woman thereafter.

وَ مَسَحَ ص ضَرْعَ شَاةٍ حَائِلٍ لَا لَبَنَ لَهَا فَدَرَّتْ فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ سَبَبَ إِسْلَامِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ

And he^-saww wiped a forearm of a milk-less sheep, not having any milk for it, and it flowed, and that was the cause of the Islam of Ibn Masoud.

أَمَالِي الْحَاكِمِ‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص كَانَ يَوْماً قَائِظاً فَلَمَّا انْتَبَهَ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ دَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَغَسَلَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ مَضْمَضَ مَاءً وَ مَجَّهُ إِلَى عَوْسَجَةٍ فَأَصْبَحُوا وَ قَدْ غَلُظَتِ الْعَوْسَجَةُ وَ أَثْمَرَتْ وَ أَيْنَعَتْ بِثَمَرٍ أَعْظَمِ مَا يَكُونُ فِي لَوْنِ الْوَرْسِ وَ رَائِحَةِ الْعَنْبَرِ وَ طَعْمِ الشَّهْدِ

(The book) ‘Amaali’ of Al Hakim, ‘The Prophet^-saww was (lying down), and it was a day of sweltering heat. When he^-saww woke up from his^-saww sleep, he^-saww called for water and washed his^-saww hand. Then he^-saww rinsed and poured it to a boxthorn (thorny shrub), and it softened, and the boxthorn had been thick, and it bore fruit and yielded as large as fruits can be in the variety of the dye plant, and aroma of Amber, and taste of honey.

وَ اللَّهِ مَا أَكَلَ مِنْهَا جَائِعٌ إِلَّا شَبِعَ وَ لَا ظَمْآنُ إِلَّا رَوِيَ وَ لَا سَقِيمٌ إِلَّا بَرَأَ وَ لَا أَكَلَ مِنْ وَرَقِهَا حَيَوَانٌ إِلَّا دَرَّ لَبَنُهَا وَ كَانَ النَّاسُ يَسْتَشْفُونَ مِنْ وَرَقِهَا وَ كَانَ يَقُومُ مَقَامَ الطَّعَامِ وَ الشَّرَابِ وَ رَأَيْنَا النَّمَاءَ وَ الْبَرَكَةَ فِي أَمْوَالِنَا فَلَمْ يَزَلْ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى أَصْبَحْنَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَ قَدْ تَسَاقَطَ ثَمَرُهَا وَ صَفِرَ وَرَقُهَا

By Allah^-azwj! No one hungry ate from it except he was satiated, nor a thirsty one except he was saturated, nor any sick one except he was cured, nor did any animal eat from its leaves except its milk flowed, and the people were healed by its leaves, and it used to stand in place of food and drink, and we saw the development and the Blessings in our wealth. It did not cease to be like that until one day we woke up in the morning and its fruits had fallen, and its leaves had turned yellow.

فَإِذَا قُبِضَ النَّبِيُّ ص فَكَانَتْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ تُثْمِرُ دُونَهُ فِي الطَّعْمِ وَ الْعِظَمِ وَ الرَّائِحَةِ وَ أَقَامَتْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً فَأَصْبَحْنَا يَوْماً وَ قَدْ ذَهَبَتْ نَضَارَةُ عِيدَانِهَا

So, when the Prophet^-saww passed away, and after that it used to bear fruit besides it in the food, and the healing power and the aroma, and it stayed upon that for thirty years. We woke up one day and its freshness was gone and the freshness of its branches.

فَإِذَا قُتِلَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَمَا أَثْمَرَتْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَلِيلًا وَ لَا كَثِيراً فَأَقَامَتْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مُدَّةً طَوِيلَةً ثُمَّ أَصْبَحْنَا وَ إِذَا بِهَا قَدْ نَبَعَ مِنْ سَاقِهَا دَمٌ عَبِيطٌ وَ وَرَقُهَا ذَابِلٌ‏ يَقْطُرُ مَاءً كَمَاءِ اللَّحْمِ فَإِذاً قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع

When Amir Al-Momineen^-asws was killed, it did not bear fruit after that, neither little nor more. It stayed after that for a long period. Then we woke up one morning and blood had sprung from its base and its leaves withered, the water dropped like the water of the meat, and Al-Husayn^-asws had been killed’.

أَمَالِي الطُّوسِيِّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ فِي خَبَرٍ طَوِيلٍ‏ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص أَصْبَحَ طَاوِياً فَأَتَى فَاطِمَةَ ع فَرَأَى الْحَسَنَ وَ الْحُسَيْنَ يَبْكِيَانِ مِنَ الْجُوعِ وَ جَعَلَ يَزُقُّهُمَا بِرِيقِهِ حَتَّى شَبِعَا

(The book) ‘Amaali’ of Al-Tusi – From Zayd Bin Arqam in a lengthy Hadeeth that the Prophet^-saww woke up hungry, and he^-saww came to (Syeda) Fatima^-asws and saw Al-Hassan^-asws and Al-Husayn^-asws crying from hunger, and he^-saww went on to feed them^-asws his^-saww saliva until they were satiated and slept.

وَ نَامَا فَذَهَبَ مَعَ عَلِيٍّ ع إِلَى دَارِ أَبِي الْهَيْثَمِ فَقَالَ مَرْحَباً بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَا كُنْتُ أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي وَ أَصْحَابَكَ إِلَّا وَ عِنْدِي شَيْ‏ءٌ وَ كَانَ لِي شَيْ‏ءٌ فَفَرَّقْتُهُ فِي الْجِيرَانِ فَقَالَ أَوْصَانِي جِبْرِيلُ بِالْجَارِ حَتَّى حَسِبْتُ أَنَّهُ سَيُوَرِّثُهُ

He^-saww went with Ali^-asws to the house of Abu Al-Haysam. He said, ‘Welcome to Rasool-Allah^-saww! I always used to love that you^-saww and your^-saww companions would come to me except and with me there would be something (to eat), and there was something for me but I distributed among the neighbours’. He^-saww said: ‘Jibraeel^-as advised me^-saww about the neighbours to the extent that I^-saww reckoned that they would be inheriting’.

قَالَ فَنَظَرَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِلَى نَخْلَةٍ فِي جَانِبِ الدَّارِ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا الْهَيْثَمِ تَأْذَنُ فِي هَذِهِ النَّخْلَةِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَفَحْلٌ وَ مَا حَمَلَ شَيْئاً قَطُّ شَأْنَكَ بِهِ فَقَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ ائْتِنِي بِقَدَحِ مَاءٍ فَشَرِبَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ مَجَّ فِيهِ ثُمَّ رَشَّ عَلَى النَّخْلَةِ فَتَمَلَّتْ أَعْذَاقاً مِنْ بُسْرٍ وَ رُطَبٍ مَا شِئْنَا

He (the narrator) said, ‘The Prophet^-saww looked at a palm tree by the side of the house. He^-saww said: ‘O Abu Al-Haysam! Do you permit me regarding this palm tree?’ He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! It is a male tree, and it does not bear anything at all. It is your concern with it’. He^-saww said: ‘O Ali^-asws! Bring me^-saww a cup of water’. He^-saww drank from it, then poured into it, then sprinkled upon the palm tree. It completed its taste, from partially ripe and ripe dates, what we like.

فَقَالَ ابْدَءُوا بِالْجِيرَانِ فَأَكَلْنَا وَ شَرِبْنَا مَاءً بَارِداً حَتَّى رَوِينَا فَقَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ هَذَا مِنَ النَّعِيمِ الَّذِي يُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَا عَلِيُّ تَزَوَّدْ لِمَنْ وَرَاكَ لِفَاطِمَةَ وَ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ

He^-saww said: ‘Begin with the neighbours’. We ate and drank cold water until we were saturated. He^-saww said: ‘O Ali^-asws! This is from the Bounties, which they would be Questioned about on the Day of Qiyamah. O Ali^-asws! Provide for the ones behind you^-saww, for (Syeda) Fatima^-asws and Al-Hassan^-asws and Al-Husayn^-asws’.

قَالَ فَمَا زَالَتْ تِلْكَ النَّخْلَةُ عِنْدَنَا نُسَمِّيهَا نَخْلَةَ الْجِيرَانِ حَتَّى قَطَعَهَا يَزِيدُ عَامَ الْحَرَّةِ

He said, ‘That palm tree did not cease to be with us. We named it as ‘Palm tree of the neighbours’ until Yazeed^-la cut it down in the year of Al-Hira’.[78]

29- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب الْبُخَارِيُ‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص قَالَ لِمَدْيُونٍ مَرَّ عَلَيْهِ وَ الدُّيَّانُ يَطْلُبُونَهُ بِالدُّيُونِ صُفَّ تَمْرَكَ كُلَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ عَلَى حِدَتِهِ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَقَعَدَ عَلَيْهِ وَ كَالَ لِكُلِّ رَجُلٍ حَتَّى اسْتَوْفَى وَ بَقِيَ التَّمْرُ كَمَا هُوَ كَأَنْ لَمْ يُمَسَّ

Al-Bukhari – ‘The Prophet^-saww said to a debtor passing by him^-saww and the creditors were seeking him for the debts: ‘Place your dates in rows, each upon its type, then come and sit by it’. And he^-saww measured out for each man until he was fulfilled (of his debt), and the dates remained just as they were, as if they had not been touched’.

وَ أَتَى عَامِرُ بْنُ كُرَيْزٍ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بِابْنِهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ وَ هُوَ ابْنُ خَمْسٍ أَوْ سِتٍّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَنِّكْهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ مِثْلَهُ لَا يُحَنَّكُ وَ أَخَذَهُ وَ تَفَلَ فِي فِيهِ فَجَعَلَ يَتَسَوَّغُ رِيقَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ يَتَلَمَّظُهُ

And Aamir Bin Kareyz came on the day of the conquest to Rasool-Allah^-saww with his son Abdullah Bin Aamir and he was a boy of five years old or six. He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! ‘Hannak’ him!’ (A ritual for a new-born). He^-saww said: ‘The ritual is not for the like of him’, and he^-saww took him and spat in his mouth, and he went on to lick the spittle of Rasool-Allah^-saww and swallowing it.

فَقَالَ ص إِنَّهُ لَمُسْتَقِي فَكَانَ لَا يُعَالِجُ أَرْضاً إِلَّا ظَهَرَ لَهُ الْمَاءُ وَ لَهُ سَقَايَاتٌ مَعْرُوفَةٌ وَ لَهُ النَّبَّاحُ وَ الْجُحْفَةُ وَ بُسْتَانُ ابْنِ عَامِرٍ

He^-saww said: ‘He is a quencher’. He did not treat any land except the water appeared for it, and for him were well-known drinking places, and for him was the market stall, and the water fountain, and the orchard of Ibn Aamir’.

وَ فِي مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ أَنَّ أُمَّ مَالِكٍ كَانَتْ تُهْدِي إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فِي عُكَّةٍ لَهَا سَمْناً فَيَأْتِيهَا بَنُوهَا فَيَسْأَلُونَ الْأَدَمَ وَ لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُمْ شَيْ‏ءٌ فَتَعَمَّدَ إِلَى الَّذِي كَانَتْ تُهْدِي فِيهِ لِلنَّبِيِّ ص فَتَجِدُ فِيهَا سَمْناً

And in (Saheeh) Muslim, from Jabir, ‘Umm Malik took some butter in a jar to the Prophet^-saww. Her sons came to her asking for the sauce and there wasn’t anything with them. So, she deliberated to that which she had taken to the Prophet^-saww, and found butter to be in it.

فَمَا زَالَ تُقِيمُ لَهَا أَدَمُ بَيْتِهَا حَتَّى عَصَرَتْهُ‏ فَأَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ص فَقَالَ عَصَرْتِيهَا قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ لَوْ تَرَكْتِيهَا مَا زَالَ مُقِيماً

The jar did not cease to stay for her house until she made juice out of it. The Prophet^-saww came and said: ‘Did you juice it?’ She said, ‘Yes’. He^-saww said: ‘If you had left it (as it was), it would not have ceased to last’’.[79]

30- عم، إعلام الورى‏ مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِ النَّبِيِّ ص حَدِيثُ شَاةِ أُمِّ مَعْبَدٍ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص لَمَّا هَاجَرَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ وَ مَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَ عَامِرُ بْنُ فَهِيرَةَ وَ دَلِيلُهُمْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُرَيْقِطٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ فَمَرُّوا عَلَى أُمِّ مَعْبَدٍ الْخُزَاعِيَّةِ وَ كَانَتِ امْرَأَةً بَرْزَةً تَحْتَبِي‏ وَ تَجْلِسُ بِفِنَاءِ الْخَيْمَةِ

‘Ilam Al-Wara’ – From the miracles of the Prophet^-saww is the Hadeeth of a sheep of Umm Ma’bad, and that is when the Prophet^-saww emigrated from Makkah and with him^-saww was Abu Bakr and Aamir Bin Faheyra and Abdullah Ibn Areyqa Al-Laysi guided them, they passed by Umm Ma’bad Al-Khuzaie, and there was a woman covered in a cloth sitting in the courtyard of the tent.

فَسَأَلُوا تَمْراً أَوْ لَحْماً لِيَشْتَرُوهُ فَلَمْ يُصِيبُوا عِنْدَهَا شَيْئاً مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَ إِذَا الْقَوْمُ مُرَمِّلُونَ فَقَالَتْ لَوْ كَانَ عِنْدَنَا شَيْ‏ءٌ مَا أَعْوَزَكُمُ الْقِرَى فَنَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فِي كَسْرِ خَيْمَتِهَا فَقَالَ مَا هَذِهِ الشَّاةُ يَا أُمَّ مَعْبَدٍ قَالَتْ شَاةٌ خَلَّفَهَا الْجَهْدُ عَنِ الْغَنَمِ فَقَالَ هَلْ بِهَا مِنْ لَبَنٍ قَالَتْ هِيَ أَجْهَدُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ أَ تَأْذَنِينَ فِي أَنْ أَحْلُبَهَا قَالَتْ نَعَمْ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي إِنْ رَأَيْتَ بِهَا حَلْباً فَاحْلُبْهَا

They asked for dates or meat they could buy, but did not attain it with her anything from that, and the people had gone. She said, ‘If there was anything with us I would not have made you to be need of the town’. Rasool-Allah^-saww looked in a corner of her tent and said: ‘What is this sheep, O Umm Ma’bad?’ She said, ‘A sheep left behind from the flock’. He^-saww said: ‘Is there any milk with it?’ She said, ‘It is bereft of that’. He^-saww said: ‘Do you permit me^-saww to milk it?’ She said, ‘Yes, may my father and my mother be sacrificed for you^-saww! If you see any milk with it, then milk it’.

فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِالشَّاةِ فَمَسَحَ ضَرْعَهَا وَ ذَكَرَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ وَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ فِي شَاتِهَا فَتَفَاجَتْ وَ دَرَّتْ‏ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِإِنَاءٍ لَهَا يُرِيضُ الرَّهْطَ فَحَلَبَ فِيهِ ثَجّاً حَتَّى عَلَتْهُ الثُّمَالُ فَسَقَاهَا فَشَرِبَتْ حَتَّى رَوِيَتْ ثُمَّ سَقَى أَصْحَابَهُ فَشَرِبُوا حَتَّى رَوُوا فَشَرِبَ آخِرُهُمْ وَ قَالَ سَاقِي الْقَوْمِ آخِرُهُمْ شُرْباً فَشَرِبُوا جَمِيعاً عَلَلًا بَعْدَ نَهْلٍ حَتَّى أَرَاضُوا ثُمَّ حَلَبَ فِيهِ ثَانِياً عَوْداً عَلَى بَدْءٍ فَغَادَرَهُ عِنْدَهَا

Rasool-Allah^-saww called the sheep and wiped its udders and mentioned the Name of Allah^-azwj and said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Bless her sheep’. It filled up and its milk flowed. Then he^-saww quenched his^-saww companions and they drank until they were saturated, and he^-saww drank the last of them and said: ‘The quencher of the people is the last one to drink’. They drank after the first drink until they were pleased. Then he^-saww milked it secondly, repeating upon the beginning, and left it with her. Then they departed from it.

ثُمَّ ارْتَحَلُوا عَنْهَا فَقَلَّمَا لَبِثَتْ أَنْ جَاءَ زَوْجُهَا أَبُو مَعْبَدٍ يَسُوقُ أَعْنُزاً عِجَافاً هَزْلَى مُخُّهُنَّ قَلِيلٌ فَلَمَّا رَأَى اللَّبَنَ قَالَ مِنْ أَيْنَ لَكُمْ هَذَا وَ الشَّاءُ عَازِبٌ وَ لَا حَلُوبَةَ فِي الْبَيْتِ قَالَتْ لَا وَ اللَّهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ مَرَّ بِنَا رَجُلٌ مُبَارَكٌ كَانَ مِنْ حَدِيثِهِ كَيْتَ‏ وَ كَيْتَ الْخَبَرَ بِطُولِهِ

When her husband Abu Ma’bad came ushering a goat, tired, dusty, when he saw the milk, said, ‘From where is this for you and the sheep is milk-less and there is no milk in the house?’ She said, ‘No, by Allah^-azwj! A Blessed man passed by us, and from his^-saww event was such a such’.[80]

31- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ ابْنَ الْكَوَّاءِ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ ع بِمَا كُنْتَ وَصِيَّ مُحَمَّدٍ ص مِنْ بَيْنَ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that Ibn Al-Kawa said to Ali^-asws, ‘Due to what are you the successor^-asws of Muhammad^-saww from between the Clan of Abdul Muttalib^-asws?’

قَالَ إِذَنْ مَا الْخَبَرَ تُرِيدُ لَمَّا نَزَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص‏ وَ أَنْذِرْ عَشِيرَتَكَ الْأَقْرَبِينَ‏ جَمَعَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ نَحْنُ أَرْبَعُونَ رَجُلًا فَأَمَرَنِي فَأَنْضَجْتُ لَهُ رِجْلَ شَاةٍ وَ صَاعاً مِنْ طَعَامٍ أَمَرَنِي فَطَحَنْتُهُ وَ خَبَزْتُهُ وَ أَمَرَنِي فَأَدْنَيْتُهُ

He^-asws said: ‘Then what is the news you want? When (the Verse): And warn your kindred, the near ones! [26:214] was Revealed, Rasool-Allah^-saww gathered us and we were forty men. He^-saww instructed me^-asws to cook a leg of a sheep for him^-saww, and one Sa’a of food. He^-saww instructed me^-asws, and I ground it and made bread of it, and he^-saww instructed me, and I^-asws brought it near.

قَالَ ثُمَّ قَدِمَ عَشَرَةٌ مِنْ أَجِلَّتِهِمْ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى صَدَرُوا وَ بَقِيَ الطَّعَامُ كَمَا كَانَ وَ إِنَّ مِنْهُمْ لَمَنْ يَأْكُلُ الْجَذَعَةَ وَ يَشْرَبُ الْفَرَقَ‏ فَأَكَلُوا مِنْهَا كُلُّهُمْ أَجْمَعُونَ فَقَالَ أَبُو لَهَبٍ سَحَرَكُمْ صَاحِبُكُمْ فَتَفَرَّقُوا عَنْهُ‏

He^-asws said: ‘Ten proceeded first and they ate until they were satiated, and the food remained as it had been, and that from them is one who ate the (amount of) a small sheep and drank his fill. They ate from it, all of them in their entirety. Abu Lahab^-la said, ‘Muhammad^-saww has enchanted you all’. And they dispersed from him^-saww.

ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ثَانِيَةً ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيُّكُمْ يَكُونُ أَخِي وَ وَصِيِّي وَ وَارِثِي فَعَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَكُلُّهُمْ يَأْبَى حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَيَّ وَ أَنَا أَصْغَرُهُمْ سِنّاً وَ أَعْمَشُهُمْ‏ عَيْناً وَ أَحْمَشُهُمْ سَاقاً فَقُلْتُ أَنَا فَرَمَى إِلَيَّ بِنَعْلِهِ فَلِذَلِكَ كُنْتُ وَصِيَّهُ مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ‏

Then Rasool-Allah^-saww called them for the second time, then said: ‘Which one of you will become my^-saww brother and my^-saww successor^-asws and my^-saww Vizier?’ He^-saww presented it to them and all of them refused until he^-saww ended up to me^-asws, and I^-asws was the youngest of them in years, and the weakest of them in eyes, and the thinnest of them in legs’. I^-asws said: ‘He^-saww threw his^-saww slippers towards me^-asws, and therefore due to that, I^-asws am his^-saww successor^-asws from between them’’.[81]

باب 8 معجزاته ص في كفاية شر الأعداء

CHAPTER 8 – HIS^-saww MIRACLES IN BEING SUFFICED FROM THE EVIL OF THE ENEMIES

الآيات البقرة فَسَيَكْفِيكَهُمُ اللَّهُ وَ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ‏

The Verses – (Surah) Al Baqarah: and Allah will Suffice you against them, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing [2:137]

المائدة يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اذْكُرُوا نِعْمَتَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ هَمَّ قَوْمٌ أَنْ يَبْسُطُوا إِلَيْكُمْ أَيْدِيَهُمْ فَكَفَّ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَنْكُمْ‏

(Surah) Al Maidah: O you who believe! Recall the Favours of Allah upon you when a people resolved to extend their hands towards you, but He Restrained their hands from you [5:11]

الحجر كَما أَنْزَلْنا عَلَى الْمُقْتَسِمِينَ الَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا الْقُرْآنَ عِضِينَ‏

(Surah) Al Hijr: Like what We Sent to the dividers [15:90] Those who made the Quran to be parts [15:91]

و قال تعالى‏ إِنَّا كَفَيْناكَ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ الَّذِينَ يَجْعَلُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلهاً آخَرَ فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ‏ ‏

And the Exalted Said: We will Suffice you against the scoffers [15:95] Those who are making another god with Allah, so soon they shall come to know [15:96]

النحل‏ وَ ضَرَبَ اللَّهُ مَثَلًا قَرْيَةً كانَتْ آمِنَةً مُطْمَئِنَّةً يَأْتِيها رِزْقُها رَغَداً مِنْ كُلِّ مَكانٍ فَكَفَرَتْ بِأَنْعُمِ اللَّهِ فَأَذاقَهَا اللَّهُ لِباسَ الْجُوعِ وَ الْخَوْفِ بِما كانُوا يَصْنَعُونَ

(Surah) Al Nahl: And Allah Strikes an example of a town which was safe, secure. Its sustenance came to it in abundance from every place. But, it committed Kufr with the Bounties of Allah, so Allah Made it to taste the clothing of hunger and the fear due to what they were doing [16:112]

وَ لَقَدْ جاءَهُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْهُمْ فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَأَخَذَهُمُ الْعَذابُ وَ هُمْ ظالِمُونَ

And a Rasool from them had come to them, but they belied him, so the Punishment Seized them while they were unjust [16:113]

الإسراء وَ إِذا قَرَأْتَ الْقُرْآنَ جَعَلْنا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ الَّذِينَ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآخِرَةِ حِجاباً مَسْتُوراً

(Surah) Al Isra: And whenever you recite the Quran, We Make a hidden veil to be between you and those who are no believing in the Hereafter [17:45]

وَ جَعَلْنا عَلى‏ قُلُوبِهِمْ أَكِنَّةً أَنْ يَفْقَهُوهُ وَ فِي آذانِهِمْ وَقْراً وَ إِذا ذَكَرْتَ رَبَّكَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ وَحْدَهُ وَلَّوْا عَلى‏ أَدْبارِهِمْ نُفُوراً

And We Make a covering to be upon their hearts lest they understand it, and a heaviness to be in their ears. And whenever you mention your Lord in the Quran as being One, they turn around upon their backs in aversion [17:46]

و قال تعالى‏ وَ إِنْ كادُوا لَيَسْتَفِزُّونَكَ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ لِيُخْرِجُوكَ مِنْها وَ إِذاً لا يَلْبَثُونَ خِلافَكَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا

And the Exalted Said: And surely, they plotted to scare you off the land in order to expel you from it, and then they would not have remained behind you except a few [17:76]

سُنَّةَ مَنْ قَدْ أَرْسَلْنا قَبْلَكَ مِنْ رُسُلِنا وَ لا تَجِدُ لِسُنَّتِنا تَحْوِيلًا

A Sunnah of the ones We Sent before you from Our Rasools, and you will not find an alteration to Our Sunnah [17:77]

الزمر أَ لَيْسَ اللَّهُ بِكافٍ عَبْدَهُ وَ يُخَوِّفُونَكَ بِالَّذِينَ مِنْ دُونِهِ وَ مَنْ يُضْلِلِ اللَّهُ فَما لَهُ مِنْ هادٍ

Isn’t Allah Sufficient for His servants? And they are frightening you by those from besides Him. And one whom Allah Lets to stray, so there would be no Guide for him [39:36].

‘Uyoun Akhbar Al-Reza^-asws’ – Al Daqaq, from al Asady, from Jareer Bin Hazim, from Abu Marouq,

‘From Al-Reza^-asws having said: ‘Abu Lahab^-la came to Rasool-Allah^-saww and threatened him^-saww. Rasool-Allah^-saww said to him^-la: ‘Ones before you^-la have injured me^-saww with a scratch that I^-saww am a liar’. It was the first Verse Rasool-Allah^-saww had been contended with’ – the Hadeeth’.[85]

‘Al Amaali’ of the sheykh Al Tusi – Al Mufeed, from Al Ja’aby, from Al Fazl Bin Al Habab Al Jamhy, from Al Husayn Bin Abdullah Al Ably, from Abu Khalid Al Asady, from Abu Bakr Bin Ayash, from Sadaqah Bin Saeed Al Hanafy, from Jamie Bin Umeyr who said,

‘I heard Abdullah son of Umar Bin Al-Khattab saying, ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww ended up to Al-Aqabah and he^-saww said: ‘No one should cross it’. So, Al Hakam Bin Abu Al Aas twisted his mouth in ridicule to Rasool-Allah^-saww, and Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘One who buys a sheep of little milk, he would be with the choice. Al Hakam twisted his mouth and the Prophet^-saww saw him, and supplicated against him. He had epilepsy for two months, then woke up. The Prophet^-saww expelled him from Al Medina rudely and exiled him from it’’.[86]

6- فس، تفسير القمي فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي الْجَارُودِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع‏ فِي قَوْلِهِ‏ وَ جَعَلْنا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا وَ مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّا فَأَغْشَيْناهُمْ‏ يَقُولُ فَأَعْمَيْنَاهُمْ‏ فَهُمْ لا يُبْصِرُونَ‏ الْهُدَى أَخَذَ اللَّهُ سَمْعَهُمْ وَ أَبْصَارَهُمْ وَ قُلُوبَهُمْ فَأَعْمَاهُمْ عَنِ الْهُدَى نَزَلَتْ فِي أَبِي جَهْلِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ عَلَيْهِ اللَّعْنَةُ وَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص قَامَ يُصَلِّي

‘Tafseer Al-Qummi’ – Ali Bin Ibrahim said, ‘And in a report of Ibn Jaroud,

‘Abu Ja’far^-asws, regarding the Words of the Exalted: And We Made a barrier to be from their front and a barrier from their back, and We Covered them [36:9], he^-asws said: ‘As for their blindness, they could not see the Guidance. Allah^-azwj Took out their hearing and their eyesight and their hearts and blinded them from the Guidance. This was Revealed regarding Abu Jahl^-la Bin Hissham and a number from his household, and that the Prophet^-saww was standing during Salat.

وَ قَدْ حَلَفَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ لَئِنْ رَآهُ يُصَلِّي لَيَدْمَغَنَّهُ فَجَاءَهُ وَ مَعَهُ حَجَرٌ وَ النَّبِيُّ ص قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فَجَعَلَ كُلَّمَا رَفَعَ الْحَجَرَ لِيَرْمِيَهُ‏ أَثْبَتَ اللَّهُ يَدَهُ إِلَى عُنُقِهِ وَ لَا يَدُورُ الْحَجَرُ بِيَدِهِ

Abu Jahl^-la had taken a vow that if he were to see him^-saww in Salat he would go and stone him^-saww. He came and had a stone with him and the Prophet^-saww was standing in Salat. He lifted the stone so that he could stone him^-saww, but Allah^-azwj Froze his hand to his neck, and he could not throw the stone with his hand. When he returned to his companions, the stone fell down from his hand.

فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ سَقَطَ الْحَجَرُ مِنْ يَدِهِ‏ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ مِنْ رَهْطِهِ أَيْضاً فَقَالَ أَنَا أَقْتُلُهُ فَلَمَّا دَنَا مِنْهُ فَجَعَلَ يَسْمَعُ قِرَاءَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَأُرْعِبَ فَرَجَعَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ حَالَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُ كَهَيْئَةِ الْفَحْلِ يَخْطِرُ بِذَنَبِهِ فَخِفْتُ أَنْ أَتَقَدَّمَ‏

Then another man stood up, and he was from among his clan as well and said, ‘I will kill him^-saww.’ When he went from them, but when he heard the recitation of Rasool-Allah^-saww he was petrified. He returned to his companions and said, ‘The situation between me and him^-saww was that I was afraid of being caught out and so I was scared to advance towards him^-saww’’.[87]

7- فس، تفسير القمي‏ فَاصْدَعْ بِما تُؤْمَرُ وَ أَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ إِنَّا كَفَيْناكَ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ‏ فَإِنَّهَا نَزَلَتْ بِمَكَّةَ بَعْدَ أَنْ نُبِّئَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِثَلَاثِ سِنِينَ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ النُّبُوَّةَ نَزَلَتْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص يَوْمَ الْإِثْنَيْنِ وَ أَسْلَمَ عَلِيٌّ ع يَوْمَ الثَّلَاثَاءِ ثُمَّ أَسْلَمَتْ خَدِيجَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدٍ زَوْجَةُ النَّبِيِّ ص ثُمَّ دَخَلَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص وَ هُوَ يُصَلِّي وَ عَلِيٌّ بِجَنْبِهِ

‘Tafseer Al-Qummi’ – So proclaim what you are Commanded with and turn away from the polytheists [15:94] We will Suffice you against the scoffers [15:95]. It was Revealed at Makkah after the Prophet-hood of Rasool-Allah^-saww by three years, and that is that the Prophet-hood^-as descended unto Rasool-Allah^-saww on the day of Tuesday, and Ali^-asws announced (publicly) his^-asws Islam on the day of Wednesday, then Khadeeja^-asws Bint Khuwaylid^-as, wife of Rasool-Allah^-saww announced her^-asws Islam. Then Abu Talib^-asws came to the Prophet^-saww and he^-saww was praying Salat and Ali^-asws by his^-saww side.

وَ كَانَ مَعَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ جَعْفَرٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو طَالِبٍ صِلْ جَنَاحَ ابْنِ عَمِّكَ فَوَقَفَ جَعْفَرٌ عَلَى يَسَارِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَبَدَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ مِنْ بَيْنِهِمَا فَكَانَ يُصَلِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ عَلِيٌّ ع وَ جَعْفَرٌ وَ زَيْدُ بْنُ حَارِثَةَ وَ خَدِيجَةُ فَلَمَّا أَتَى لِذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ‏ فَاصْدَعْ بِما تُؤْمَرُ وَ أَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ إِنَّا كَفَيْناكَ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ‏

And Ja’far^-asws was with Abu Talib^-asws, so Abu Talib^-asws said to him^-asws: ‘Connect (to) the wing of your^-asws cousin^-saww!’ Ja’far^-asws stood to the left of Rasool-Allah^-saww. Rasool-Allah^-saww began from between the two and Rasool-Allah^-saww and Ali^-asws and Ja’far^-asws and Zayd Bin Haris (cousin of Rasool-Allah^-saww) and (Syeda) Khadeeja^-asws used to pray Salat. When three years came for that, Allah^-azwj Revealed unto him^-saww: So, proclaim what you are Commanded with and turn away from the polytheists [15:94] We will Suffice you against the scoffers [15:95].

وَ كَانَ الْمُسْتَهْزِءُونَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص خَمْسَةً الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ وَ الْعَاصُ بْنُ وَائِلٍ وَ الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ الْمُطَّلِبِ وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ دَعَا عَلَيْهِ‏ لِمَا كَانَ بَلَغَهُ مِنْ إِيذَائِهِ وَ اسْتِهْزَائِهِ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَعْمِ بَصَرَهُ وَ أَثْكِلْهُ بِوَلَدِهِ فَعَمِيَ بَصَرُهُ وَ قُتِلَ وَلَدُهُ بِبَدْرٍ وَ الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ‏ وَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ طَلَاطِلَةَ الْخُزَاعِيُّ

The scoffers at Rasool-Allah^-saww were five – Al-Waleed Bin Al Mugheira, and Al Aas Bin Waail, and Al-Aswad Bin Al-Matlab – and Rasool-Allah^-saww had supplicated against him when it reached him^-saww of his hurting and his scoffing, so he^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Blind his sight and bereave him of his child’. His sight was blinded and his son was killed at Badr – and Al Aswad Bin Abd Yagous, and Al-Haris Bin Talatalah Al-Khuzaie.

فَمَرَّ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ مَعَهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ فَقَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ وَ هُوَ مِنَ الْمُسْتَهْزِءِينَ بِكَ قَالَ نَعَمْ

Al-Waleed Bin Al Mugheira passed by Rasool-Allah^-azwj and with him^-saww was Jibraeel^-as. Jibraeel^-as said: ‘O Muhammad^-saww! This is Waleed Bin Al Mugheira and he is from the ones scoffing at you^-saww’. He^-saww said: ‘Yes’.

وَ قَدْ كَانَ مَرَّ بِرَجُلٍ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ وَ هُوَ يَرِيشُ نِبَالًا لَهُ فَوَطِئَ عَلَى بَعْضِهَا فَأَصَابَ أَسْفَلَ عَقِبِهِ قِطْعَةٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَدَمِيَتْ فَلَمَّا مَرَّ بِجَبْرَئِيلَ أَشَارَ إِلَى ذَلِكَ الْمَوْضِعِ فَرَجَعَ الْوَلِيدُ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ وَ نَامَ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ وَ كَانَتِ ابْنَتُهُ نَائِمَةً أَسْفَلَ مِنْهُ فَانْفَجَرَ الْمَوْضِعُ الَّذِي أَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ أَسْفَلَ عَقِبِهِ فَسَالَ مِنْهُ الدَّمُ حَتَّى صَارَ إِلَى فِرَاشِ ابْنَتِهِ

And it so happened that he passed by a man from Khuzaie by the door of the Masjid and he was spreading out his arrows, and he trod upon one of them and the bottom of his heel was injured by a cut from that, and he bled. When he passed by Jibraeel^-as, he^-as gestured towards that place (of the cut), and Al-Waleed returned to his house and slept upon his bed, and his daughter was sleeping lower than him. The place which Jibraeel^-as had gestured to, the lower part of his heel, burst forth, and the blood flowed from it until it came to the bed of his daughter.

فَانْتَبَهَتِ‏ ابْنَتُهُ فَقَالَتِ الْجَارِيَةُ انْحَلَّ وِكَاءُ الْقِرْبَةِ قَالَ الْوَلِيدُ مَا هَذَا وِكَاءَ الْقِرْبَةِ وَ لَكِنَّهُ دَمُ أَبِيكِ فَاجْمَعِي لِي وُلْدِي وَ وُلْدَ أَخِي فَإِنِّي مَيِّتٌ فَجَمَعَتْهُمْ فَقَالَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ إِنَّ عُمَارَةَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ بِأَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ بِدَارٍ مَضِيعَةٍ فَخُذْ كِتَاباً مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ إِلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ أَنْ يَرُدَّهُ

His daughter woke up and the girl said, ‘The string of the dome has unravelled’. Al-Waleed said, ‘This is not an unravelling of the dome, but it is the blood of your father. Gather my children for me and the children of my brother, for I am about to die’. She gathered them. He said to Abdullah Bin Abu Rabie, ‘Amarah Ibn Al-Waleed is in the land of Ethiopia in a narrow house, so take a latter from Muhammad^-saww to Al-Najashy and return it’.

ثُمَّ قَالَ لِابْنِهِ هَاشِمٍ وَ هُوَ أَصْغَرُ وُلْدِهِ يَا بُنَيَّ أُوصِيكَ بِخَمْسِ خِصَالٍ فَاحْفَظْهَا أُوصِيكَ بِقَتْلِ أَبِي رُهْمٍ الدَّوْسِيِّ وَ إِنْ أَعْطَوْكُمْ ثَلَاثَ دِيَاتٍ فَإِنَّهُ غَلَبَنِي عَلَى امْرَأَتِي وَ هِيَ بِنْتُهُ وَ لَوْ تَرَكَهَا وَ بَعْلَهَا كَانَتْ تَلِدُ لِيَ ابْناً مِثْلَكَ وَ دَمِي فِي خُزَاعَةَ وَ مَا تَعَمَّدُوا قَتْلِي وَ أَخَافُ أَنْ تُنْسَوْا بَعْدِي وَ دَمِي فِي بَنِي خُزَيْمَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ وَ دِيَاتِي‏ فِي سَقِيفٍ فَخُذْهُ وَ لِأُسْقُفِّ نَجْرَانَ عَلَيَّ مِائَتَا دِينَارٍ فَاقْضِهَا ثُمَّ فَاضَتْ نَفْسُهُ

Then he said to his son Hashim and he was the youngest of his sons, ‘O my son! I bequeath you with five characteristics, therefore preserve them – I bequeath you to kill Abu Rahm Al-Dowsy and even if he gives you three wergilds, for he overcame upon my wife and she is his daughter, and if he had left her and her husband, she would have given birth for me to a son like you; and my blood among Khuza’a and what they deliberated with for killing me, and I fear that you will forget it after me; and my blood among the clan of Khuzayma Bin Aamir, and my wergild (debt) regarding Saqeef. Take it and for Asqaf Bajran upon me are two hundred dinars, so pay it’. Then his soul spilled out.

وَ مَرَّ أَبُو زَمْعَةَ الْأَسْوَدُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَأَشَارَ جَبْرَئِيلُ إِلَى بَصَرِهِ فَعَمِيَ وَ مَاتَ وَ مَرَّ بِهِ الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ فَأَشَارَ جَبْرَئِيلُ إِلَى بَطْنِهِ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَسْتَسْقِي حَتَّى انْشَقَّ بَطْنُهُ وَ مَرَّ الْعَاصُ بْنُ وَائِلٍ فَأَشَارَ جَبْرَئِيلُ إِلَى رِجْلِهِ فَدَخَلَ عُودٌ فِي أَخْمَصِ قَدَمِهِ‏ وَ خَرَجَتْ مِنْ ظَاهِرِهِ وَ مَاتَ وَ مَرَّ ابْنُ الطَّلَاطِلَةِ فَأَرْسَلَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ جَبْرَئِيلَ فَأَشَارَ إِلَى‏ وَجْهِهِ فَخَرَجَ إِلَى جِبَالِ تِهَامَةَ فَأَصَابَتْهُ السَّمَائِمُ ثُمَّ اسْتَسْقَى حَتَّى انْشَقَّ بَطْنُهُ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ‏ إِنَّا كَفَيْناكَ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ

And Abu Zam’ah Al Aswad passed by Rasool-Allah^-saww, and Jibraeel^-as gestured to his sight, and he was blinded and died. And al Aswad Bin Abd Yagous passed by him^-saww and Jibraeel^-as gestured to his belly, and he did no cease to drink until his belly ruptured. And Al-Aas Bin Wail passed by and Jibraeel^-as gestured towards his leg and a stick entered into the sole of his foot and came out from its back, and he died. And Ibn Al-Talatalah passed by and Allah^-azwj Sent Jibraeel^-as to him and he^-as gestured to his face. He went out to the mountain of Tahama and the hot wind blasted his face, then he kept drinking until his belly was ruptured, and it is the Word of Allah^-azwj: We will Suffice you against the scoffers [15:95]’’.[88]

‘Tafseer Al-Ayyashi’ – From Aban Al Ahmar, raising it, said,

‘The scoffers were five from Quraysh – Al-Waleed Bin Al Mugheira Al Mahzoumy, and Al Aas Al Wail Al Samhy, and Al Haris Bin Hanzalah, and Al Aswad Bin Abd Yagous Bin Wahab Al Zuhry, and Al Aswad Bin Al Muttalib Bin Asad. When Allah^-azwj Said: We will Suffice you against the scoffers [15:95], Rasool-Allah^-saww knew that they have scoffed him^-saww. Allah^-azwj Caused them to die with evil deaths’’.[89]

Al Qatan, from Abdul Rahman Bin Muhammad al Hasny, from Muhammad Bin Ali Al Khurasany, from Sahl Bin Salih Al-Abbasy, from his father and Ibrahim Bin Abdul Rahman Al Ably,

‘From Musa^-asws Bin Ja’far^-asws, from his^-asws forefathers^-asws: ‘Amir Al-Momineen^-asws said to a Jew from the Jews of Syria and their Rabbis, and he^-asws had informed him regarding what he^-asws answered him from the answers to his questions: ‘And as for the scoffers, so Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: We will Suffice you against the scoffers [15:95].

فَقَتَلَ اللَّهُ خَمْسَتَهُمْ قَدْ قُتِلَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ بِغَيْرِ قِتْلَةِ صَاحِبِهِ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ أَمَّا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ فَإِنَّهُ مَرَّ بِنَبْلٍ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ قَدْ رَاشَهُ فِي الطَّرِيقِ فَأَصَابَتْهُ شَظِيَّةٌ مِنْهُ فَانْقَطَعَ أَكْحَلُهُ حَتَّى أَدْمَاهُ فَمَاتَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ قَتَلَنِي رَبُّ مُحَمَّدٍ

Allah^-azwj killed five of them. Each one of them was killed, without having killed his attacker, in one day. As for Al-Waleed Bin Al-Mugheira, so he passed proudly by a man from the Clan of Khaza’at on the road, and he was hit by him with a fragment from the middle of the armour until he bled. He died, and he was saying, ‘It was the Lord^-azwj of Muhammad^-saww Who killed me!’

وَ أَمَّا الْعَاصُ بْنُ وَائِلٍ السَّهْمِيُّ فَإِنَّهُ خَرَجَ فِي حَاجَتِهِ لَهُ إِلَى كُدًى فَتَدَهْدَهَ تَحْتَهُ حَجَرٌ فَسَقَطَ فَتَقَطَّعَ قِطْعَةً قِطْعَةً فَمَاتَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ قَتَلَنِي رَبُّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ

And as for Al-Aas Al-Wa’ily Bin Wa’il Al Sahmy, so he went out for a need of his to a mountain. He was crushed under a rock, and he was cut down into pieces and pieces. So, he died, and he was saying: ‘It was the Lord^-azwj of Muhammad^-saww who killed me!’

أَمَّا الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ فَإِنَّهُ خَرَجَ يَسْتَقْبِلُ ابْنَهُ زَمْعَةَ وَ مَعَهُ غُلَامٌ لَهُ فَاسْتَظَلَّ بِشَجَرَةٍ تَحْتَ كُدًى فَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع فَأَخَذَ رَأْسَهُ فَنَطَحَ بِهِ الشَّجَرَةَ فَقَالَ لِغُلَامِهِ امْنَعْ هَذَا عَنِّي فَقَالَ مَا أَرَى أَحَداً يَصْنَعُ بِكَ شَيْئاً إِلَّا نَفْسَكَ فَقَتَلَهُ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ قَتَلَنِي رَبُّ مُحَمَّدٍ

And as for Al-Sawad Bin Abd Yagous, so he was received by his son Zam’at, and with him was a young boy of his, and he took to a shade of a tree under a mountain. Jibraeel^-as came to him, seized his head and butted it against the tree. He said to his boy, ‘Prevent this from me!’ He said, ‘I have not seen anyone do anything with you, except that it was yourself’. He was killed, and he was saying, ‘It was the Lord^-azwj of Muhammad^-saww Who killed me’.

قَالَ الصَّدُوقُ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ‏ وَ يُقَالُ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ فِي الْأَسْوَدِ قَوْلٌ آخَرُ يُقَالُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص كَانَ قَدْ دَعَا عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُعْمِيَ اللَّهُ بَصَرَهُ وَ أَنْ يُثْكِلَهُ وَلَدَهُ فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ جَاءَ حَتَّى صَارَ إِلَى كُدًى فَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ بِوَرَقَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ فَضَرَبَ بِهَا وَجْهَهُ فَعَمِيَ وَ بَقِيَ‏ حَتَّى أَثْكَلَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَلَدَهُ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ ثُمَّ مَاتَ

Al-Sadouq said, ‘And he^-asws said in another Hadeeth regarding Al Aswad: ‘The Prophet^-saww had supplicated against him for Allah^-azwj to Blind his sight, and to Bereave him of his son. When it was during that day, he came and Jibraeel^-as came with a green leaf and struck his face with it, and he was blinded and remained such until Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic Bereaved him of his son on the day of (battle of) Badr. Then he died’.

وَ أَمَّا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ الطَّلَاطِلَةِ فَإِنَّهُ خَرَجَ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ فِي السَّمُومِ فَتَحَوَّلَ حَبَشِيّاً فَرَجَعَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَقَالَ أَنَا الْحَارِثُ فَغَضِبُوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَتَلُوهُ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ قَتَلَنِي رَبُّ مُحَمَّدٍ

And as for Al-Haaris Bin Al-Talaatalat, so he went out from his house during the season (of Hajj), so he changed into (to look like) an Ethiopian. He returned back to his family and said, ‘I am Haaris!’ So they were angered against him and killed him, and he was saying, ‘It was the Lord^-azwj of Muhammad^-saww Who killed me’.

وَ أَمَّا الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ فَإِنَّهُ أَكَلَ حُوتاً مَالِحاً فَأَصَابَهُ الْعَطَشُ‏ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَشْرَبُ الْمَاءَ حَتَّى انْشَقَّ بَطْنُهُ فَمَاتَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ قَتَلَنِي رَبُّ مُحَمَّدٍ

And as for Al-Aswad Bin Al-Haris, so he ate a salty fish and was overcome with thirst. He did not stop drinking the water until his belly burst, so he died, and he was saying, ‘It was the Lord^-azwj of Muhammad^-saww Who killed me’.

كُلُّ ذَلِكَ فِي سَاعَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالُوا لَهُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ نَنْتَظِرُ بِكَ الظُّهْرَ فَإِنْ رَجَعْتَ عَنْ قَوْلِكَ وَ إِلَّا قَتَلْنَاكَ

And all that was at one time, and that was when they were in front of Rasool-Allah^-saww, so they said to him^-saww, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! We will respite you^-saww until midday, so if you^-saww were to retract from your^-saww words, fine, otherwise we will kill you^-saww’.

فَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ص مَنْزِلَهُ فَأَغْلَقَ عَلَيْهِ بَابَهُ مُغْتَمّاً بِقَوْلِهِمْ فَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع سَاعَتَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ السَّلَامُ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ‏ فَاصْدَعْ بِما تُؤْمَرُ يَعْنِي أَظْهِرْ أَمْرَكَ لِأَهْلِ مَكَّةَ وَ ادْعُ‏ وَ أَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ‏

The Prophet^-saww entered his^-saww house, and locked his^-saww door against them, saddened by their words, and Jibraeel^-as came up to him^-saww in that moment and said to him^-saww: ‘O Muhammad^-saww! Allah^-azwj Conveys His^-azwj Greetings to you^-saww, and He^-azwj is Saying: So proclaim what you are Commanded with [15:94] – Meaning manifest your^-saww matter to the people of Makkah and Invite, and turn away from the polytheists [15:94].

قَالَ يَا جَبْرَئِيلُ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ بِالْمُسْتَهْزِءِينَ وَ مَا أَوْعَدُونِي قَالَ لَهُ‏ إِنَّا كَفَيْناكَ الْمُسْتَهْزِئِينَ‏ قَالَ يَا جَبْرَئِيلُ كَانُوا عِنْدِيَ السَّاعَةَ بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ فَقَالَ قَدْ كُفِيتَهُمْ فَأَظْهَرَ أَمْرَهُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ

He^-saww said: ‘O Jibraeel^-as! How shall I^-saww react to the scoffers, and what if they are inimical to me^-saww?’ He^-azwj said: We will Suffice you against the scoffers [15:95]’. He^-saww said: ‘O Jibraeel^-as! They were in front of me^-saww this very hour’. He^-as said: ‘You^-saww have been Sufficed from them, therefore manifest your^-saww matter in that (situation)’

قال الصدوق رحمه الله و الحديث طويل أخذنا منه موضع الحاجة و قد أخرجته بتمامه في آخر الجزء الرابع من كتاب النبوة

Al-Sadouq said, ‘And the Hadeeth is lengthy, we have taken from it the necessary subject matter, and I (Majlisi) have extracted it in its complete form at the end of the fourth part from the Book of Prophet-hood’’.[90]

10- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ أَبَا جَهْلٍ طَلَبَ غِرَّتَهُ‏ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ سَاجِداً أَخَذَ صَخْرَةً لِيَطْرَحَهَا عَلَيْهِ أَلْزَقَهَا اللَّهُ بِكَفِّهِ وَ لَمَّا عَرَفَ أَنْ لَا نَجَاةَ إِلَّا بِمُحَمَّدٍ سَأَلَهُ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ رَبَّهُ‏ فَدَعَا اللَّهَ فَأُطْلِقَ يَدُهُ وَ طُرِحَ بِصَخْرَتِهِ‏

It is reported that Abu Jahl^-la sought his^-saww inattentiveness, so when he saw him^-saww doing Sajdah, grabbed a rock in order to drop it upon him^-saww. Allah^-azwj Adhered it to his palm, and when he recognised that there is rescue except through Muhammad^-saww, asked him^-saww to supplicate to his^-saww Lord^-azwj. He^-saww supplicated to Allah^-azwj and He^-azwj Freed his^-la hand, and it dropped his rock’’.[91]

11- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الْيَهُودِ عَمِلَتْ لَهُ سِحْراً فَظَنَّتْ أَنَّهُ يُنْفِذُ فِيهِ كَيْدَهَا- وَ السِّحْرُ بَاطِلٌ مُحَالٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ اللَّهَ دَلَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فَبَعَثَ مَنِ اسْتَخْرَجَهُ وَ كَانَ عَلَى الصِّفَةِ الَّتِي ذَكَرَهَا وَ عَلَى عَدَدِ الْعُقَدِ الَّتِي عَقَدَ فِيهَا وَ وَصَفَ مَا لَوْ عَايَنَهُ مُعَايِنٌ لَغَفَلَ عَنْ بَعْضِ ذَلِكَ‏

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that a woman from the Jews performed sorcery to him^-saww and thought that he^-saww would be trapped in her plot, and the sorcery was invalid, impossible, except that Allah^-azwj Pointed him^-saww upon it. He^-saww sent someone to extract it, and it was upon the description which he^-saww had mentioned, and upon the number of knots which were tied in it and described, what if it had not been witnessed by an eye, he would have been heedless from some of that’’.[92]

12- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ص فَصَلَّى فِي ظِلِّ الْكَعْبَةِ وَ نَاسٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ نَحَرُوا جَزُوراً فِي نَاحِيَةِ مَكَّةَ فَبَعَثُوا وَ جَاءُوا بِسَلَاهَا فَطَرَحُوهُ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ فَجَاءَتْ فَاطِمَةُ ع فَطَرَحَتْهُ عَنْهُ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Ibn Masoud who said,

‘We were with the Prophet^-saww and he^-saww prayed Salat in the shade of the Kabah, and the people from Quraysh and Abu Jahl^-la were slaughtering a camel in a corner of Makkah. They sent (someone) with its intestine and dropped in between his^-saww shoulders. So, (Syeda) Fatima^-asws came and removed it from him^-saww.

فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ عَلَيْكَ بِقُرَيْشٍ اللَّهُمَّ عَلَيْكَ بِأَبِي جَهْلٍ وَ بِعُتْبَةَ وَ شَيْبَةَ وَ وَلِيدِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ وَ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ خَلَفٍ وَ بِعُقْبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مُعَيْطٍ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُمْ قَتْلَى فِي قَلِيبِ بَدْرٍ

When he^-saww left, he^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Upon You^-azwj is with (dealing with) Quraysh. O Allah^-azwj! Upon You^-azwj is with (Dealing with) Abu Jahl^-la, and with Otbah^-la, and Shaybah^-la, and Waleed^-la Bin Otbah^-la, and Umayya Bin Khalaf, and Aqaba Ibn Abu Mueet’. Abdullah said, ‘We saw him killed in the well of Badr’’.[93]

13- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ أَبَا ثَرْوَانَ كَانَ رَاعِياً فِي إِبِلِ عَمْرِو بْنِ تَمِيمٍ فَخَافَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى سَوَادِ الْإِبِلِ فَقَصَدَ لَهُ وَ جَلَسَ بَيْنَهَا فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ لَا تَصْلُحُ إِبِلٌ أَنْتَ فِيهَا فَدَعَا عَلَيْهِ فَعَاشَ شَقِيّاً يَتَمَنَّى الْمَوْتَ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that Abu Sarwan was grazing the camels of Amro Bin Tameem, and Rasool-Allah^-saww feared from Quraysh. He^-azwj looked towards a black camel and aimed towards it and sat between it. He said, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! The camels are not correct while you^-saww are among them’. He^-saww supplicated against him, and he lived miserable wishing for the death’’.[94]

14- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ عُتْبَةَ بْنَ أَبِي لَهَبٍ قَالَ كَفَرْتُ بِرَبِّ النَّجْمِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص أَ مَا تَخَافُ أَنْ يَأْكُلَكَ كَلْبُ اللَّهِ فَخَرَجَ فِي تِجَارَةٍ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ قَدْ عَرَّسُوا إِذْ سَمِعَ صَوْتَ الْأَسَدِ فَقَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ إِنِّي مَأْكُولٌ بِدُعَاءِ مُحَمَّدٍ فَنَامُوا حَوْلَهُ فَضُرِبَ‏ عَلَى آذَانِهِمْ فَجَاءَهُ الْأَسَدُ حَتَّى أَخَذَهُ فَمَا سَمِعُوا إِلَّا صَوْتَهُ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that Otbah Bin Abu Lahab said, ‘I disbelieve in the Lord^-azwj of the stars!’ The Prophet^-saww said: ‘But do you not fear a dog (beast) of Allah^-azwj would devour you?’ He went out regarding trade to Yemen, and while they had rested when he heard the sound of the lion. He said to his companion, ‘I shall be eaten due to the supplication of Muhammad^-saww’. They slept around him and (heaviness) was struck upon their ears. The lion came until it seized him and they did not hear except his voice’’.[95]

وَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا قَالَ كَفَرْتُ بِالَّذِي دَنَا فَتَدَلَّى وَ تَفَلَ فِي وَجْهِ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ ص اللَّهُمَّ سَلِّطْ عَلَيْهِ كَلْباً مِنْ كِلَابِكَ فَخَرَجُوا إِلَى الشَّامِ فَنَزَلُوا مَنْزِلًا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَاهِبٌ مِنَ الدَّيْرِ هَذِهِ أَرْضٌ مَسْبَعَةٌ

And in another Hadeeth – When he said, ‘I disbelieve in the One^-azwj to Whom you^-saww approached and went closer to’, and spat in the face of Muhammad^-saww. He^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Cause a dog from the dogs to overcome him’. They went out to Syria and they encamped in a camp, and a monk from the Monastery said to them, ‘This land is full of lions’.

فَقَالَ أَبُو لَهَبٍ يَا مَعْشَرَ قُرَيْشٍ أَعِينُونَا هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ إِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَيْهِ دَعْوَةَ مُحَمَّدٍ فَجَمَعُوا جمالهم‏ [أَحْمَالَهُمْ‏] وَ فَرَشُوا لِعُتْبَةَ فِي أَعْلَاهَا وَ نَامُوا حَوْلَهُ فَجَاءَ الْأَسَدُ يَتَشَمَّمُ وُجُوهَهُمْ ثُمَّ ثَنَى ذَنَبَهُ فَوَثَبَ فَضَرَبَهُ بِيَدِهِ ضَرْبَةً وَاحِدَةً فَخَدَشَهُ قَالَ قَتَلَنِي‏ فَمَاتَ مَكَانَهُ

Abu Lahab^-la said, ‘O community of Quraysh! We shall stay awake this night. I^-la fear upon him the supplication of Muhammad^-saww!’ They gathered their camels and furnished for Otbah in its higher ground and they slept around him. The lion came smelling their faces, then it wagged its tail and leapt and struck his hand with one strike and scratched it. He said, ‘You^-saww killed me!’ And he died in his place’’.[96]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – From his^-saww miracles is that he^-saww was praying Salat facing the (Black) Stone and facing Bayt Al-Maqdas and facing the Kabah, and he^-saww was not seen until he^-saww was free from his^-saww Salat, and he^-saww was veiled by His^-azwj Words: And whenever you recite the Quran, We Make a hidden veil to be between you and those who are not believing in the Hereafter [17:45].

And by His^-azwj Words: They are those Allah Sealed upon their hearts and their hearing and their sight, and those, they are the heedless ones [16:108]; and by His^-azwj Words: and We Made a covering to be upon their hearts lest they understand it, and a deafness to be in their ears, [6:25]; and by His^-azwj Words: So, do you see one who takes his desires as a god, and Allah Lets him stray upon knowledge and Seals upon his hearing and his heart, and Makes a covering to be upon his sight? [45:23]’’.[97]

16- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِنَّا لَنْ نُؤْمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنَا بِاللَّهِ وَ الْمَلائِكَةِ قَبِيلًا أَوْ يَكُونَ لَكَ بَيْتٌ مِنْ زُخْرُفٍ أَوْ تَرْقى‏ فِي السَّماءِ وَ لَنْ نُؤْمِنَ لِرُقِيِّكَ‏ وَ اللَّهِ لَوْ فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ مَا كُنْتُ أَدْرِي أَ صَدَقْتَ أَمْ لَا

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘Abdullah Bin Amiya said to Rasool-Allah^-saww, ‘I will never believe in you^-saww until you^-saww you come with Allah and the Angels face to face [17:92] Or there should happen to be for you a house of gold, or you should ascent into the sky, [17:93]. By Allah^-azwj! Even if you^-saww do that, I do not know whether to ratify you^-saww or not’.

فَانْصَرَفَ النَّبِيُّ ص ثُمَّ نَظَرُوا فِي أُمُورِهِمْ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ لَئِنْ أَصْبَحْتُ وَ هُوَ قَدْ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ لَأَطْرَحَنَّ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ أَعْظَمَ حَجَرٍ أَقْدِرُ عَلَيْهِ

The Prophet^-saww left, then they looked into their affair, so Abu Jahl^-la said, ‘When I wake up in the morning and he^-saww is inside the Masjid, I^-la will drop upon his^-saww head as large a rock I possible can’.

فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّى فَأَخَذَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ الْحَجَرَ وَ قُرَيْشٌ تَنْظُرُ فَلَمَّا دَنَا لِيَرْمِيَ بِالْحَجَرِ مِنْ يَدِهِ أَخَذَتْهُ الرِّعْدَةُ فَقَالُوا مَا لَكَ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ أَمْثَالَ الْجِبَالِ مُتَقَنِّعِينَ فِي الْحَدِيدِ لَوْ تَحَرَّكْتُ أَخَذُونِي

Rasool-Allah^-saww entered the Masjid and prayed Salat. Abu Jahl^-la grabbed the rock and Quraysh were looking on. When he^-la went near to pelt with the rock from his^-la hand, the awe seized him^-la. They said, ‘What is the matter with you^-la?’ He^-la said, ‘I^-la saw like the mountain covered in the iron. If I^-la had moved, I^-la would have been seized’’.[98]

17- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: إِنَّ الْحَكَمَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ عَمَّ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ كَانَ يَسْتَهْزِئُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ بِخُطْوَتِهِ فِي مِشْيَتِهِ وَ يَسْخَرُ مِنْهُ وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَوْماً وَ الْحَكَمُ خَلْفَهُ يُحَرِّكُ كَتِفَيْهِ وَ يَكْسِرُ يَدَيْهِ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ اسْتِهْزَاءً مِنْهُ بِمِشْيَتِهِ ص

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Jabir who said, ‘Al Hakam Bin Al Aas, uncle of Usman Bin Afaan was mocking with Rasool-Allah^-saww in his^-saww steps during his^-saww walking and mocking from it, and one day Rasool-Allah^-saww (was walking) and Al Hakam was behind him^-saww moving his shoulders and clicking his hands behind Rasool-Allah^-saww mocking his^-saww walking from it.

فَأَشَارَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِيَدِهِ وَ قَالَ هَكَذَا فَكُنْ فَبَقِيَ الْحَكَمُ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ مِنْ تَحْرِيكِ أَكْتَافِهِ وَ تَكَسُّرِ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ نَفَاهُ عَنِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَ لَعَنَهُ فَكَانَ مَطْرُوداً إِلَى أَيَّامِ عُثْمَانَ فَرَدَّهُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ

Rasool-Allah^-saww gestured with his^-saww hand and said: ‘Then become like this!’ Al Hakam remained upon that state from the movement of his shoulders and clicking his hands. Then he^-saww expelled him from Al-Medina and cursed him, and he was expelled up to the days of Usman who returned him to Medina’’.[99]

18- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فِي بَعْضِ اللَّيَالِي فَقَرَأَ تَبَّتْ يَدا أَبِي لَهَبٍ‏ فَقِيلَ لِأُمِّ جَمِيلٍ أُخْتِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ امْرَأَةِ أَبِي لَهَبٍ إِنَّ مُحَمَّداً لَمْ يَزَلِ الْبَارِحَةَ يَهْتِفُ بِكِ وَ بِزَوْجِكِ فِي صَلَاتِهِ وَ يَقْنُتُ عَلَيْكُمَا

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Jabir,

‘From Abu Ja’far^-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww prayed Salat in one of the nights and he^-saww recited: May both the hands of Abu Lahab perish, and (so would) he! [111:1]. So, it was said to Umm Jameel, the wife of Abu Lahab, ‘Muhammad^-saww did not cease to shout out at you and your husband last night in his^-saww Salat and supplicating against you’.

فَخَرَجَتْ تَطْلُبُهُ وَ هِيَ تَقُولُ لَئِنْ رَأَيْتُهُ لَأَسْمَعْتُهُ وَ جَعَلَتْ تُنْشِدُ مَنْ أَحَسَّ لِي مُحَمَّداً حَتَّى انْتَهَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ جَالِسٌ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوِ انْتَحَيْتَ‏ فَإِنَّ أُمَّ جَمِيلٍ قَدْ أَقْبَلَتْ وَ أَنَا خَائِفٌ أَنْ تُسْمِعَكَ شَيْئاً

She went out seeking him^-saww and she was saying, ‘If I hear see him^-saww, I will not listen to him^-saww’, and she went on asking about him^-saww, ‘Who can point to Muhammad^-saww for me’, until she ended up to Rasool-Allah^-saww, and Abu Bakr was with him^-saww. Abu Bakr said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! If you^-saww could hold back, for Umm Jameel has come and I fear that she might hear something’.

فَقَالَ إِنَّهَا لَمْ تَرَنِي فَجَاءَتْ حَتَّى قَامَتْ عَلَيْهِ وَ قَالَتْ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَ رَأَيْتَ مُحَمَّداً قَالَ لَا فَمَضَتْ رَاجِعَةً إِلَى بَيْتِهَا فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع ضَرَبَ اللَّهُ بَيْنَهُمَا حِجَاباً أَصْفَرَ وَ كَانَتْ تَقُولُ لَهُ ص مُذَمَّمٌ وَ كَذَا قُرَيْشٌ كُلُّهُمْ

He^-saww said: ‘She cannot see me^-saww’. She came until she stood to him and said, ‘O Abu Bakr! Have you seen Muhammad^-saww?’ He said, ‘No’. She went returning to her house. Abu Bakr said, ‘Allah^-azwj Struck a yellow Veil between them, and she used to say for him^-saww, ‘Condemned’, and such were Quraysh, all of them.

فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَنْسَاهُمْ اسْمِي وَ هُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ يُسَمُّونَ‏ مُذَمَّماً وَ أَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ

The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Allah^-azwj Made them forget my^-saww name and they knew it. They were naming me^-saww as condemned, and I^-saww am the praised one’’.[100]

19- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص نَزَلَ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ فَعَلَّقَ بِهَا سَيْفَهُ ثُمَّ نَامَ فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَأَخَذَ السَّيْفَ وَ قَامَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَاسْتَيْقَظَ النَّبِيُ ص فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَنْ يَعْصِمُكَ الْآنَ مِنِّي قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فَرَجَفَ وَ سَقَطَ السَّيْفُ مِنْ يَدِهِ

‘Al  Manaqib’ of Ibn  Shehr Ashoub – Jabir Bin Abdullah^-ar, ‘The Prophet^-saww descended beneath a tree and took off his^-saww sword. A Bedouin came and grabbed the sword and stood at his^-saww head. The Prophet^-saww woke up. He said, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! Who will save you now from me?’ He^-saww said: ‘Allah^-azwj the Exalted. He started shaking and the sword fell from his hand’.

وَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ أَنَّهُ بَقِيَ جَالِساً زَمَاناً وَ لَمْ يُعَاقِبْهُ النَّبِيُّ ص

And in another Hadeeth, ‘He remained seated for a (long) time and the Prophet^-saww did not punish him’.

الثُّمَالِيُ‏ فِي تَفْسِيرِ قَوْلِهِ‏ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اذْكُرُوا نِعْمَتَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ هَمَّ قَوْمٌ‏ أَنَّ الْقَاصِدَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص كَانَ دُعْثُورَ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ فَدَفَعَ جَبْرَئِيلُ فِي صَدْرِهِ فَوَقَعَ السَّيْفُ مِنْ يَدِهِ فَأَخَذَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ قَامَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَقَالَ مَا يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي فَقَالَ لَا أَحَدَ وَ أَنَا أَعْهَدُ أَنْ لَا أُقَاتِلَكَ أَبَداً وَ لَا أُعِينَ عَلَيْكَ عَدُوّاً

Al-Sumaly, in Tafseer of His^-azwj Words: O you who believe! Recall the Favours of Allah upon you when a people resolved to extend their hands towards you, [5:11]. The one aiming to the Prophet^-saww was Dowsar Bin Al-Haris. Jibraeel^-as pushed him in his chest and the sword fell from his hand. Rasool-Allah^-saww seized it and stood at his head, so he^-saww said: ‘What will prevent you from me^-saww?’ He said, ‘No one, and I oath that I shall never kill you^saww, ever, nor support an enemy against you’.

فَأَطْلَقَهُ فَسُئِلَ بَعْدَ انْصِرَافِهِ عَنْ حَالِهِ فَقَالَ نَظَرْتُ إِلَى رَجُلٍ طَوِيلٍ أَبْيَضَ دَفَعَ فِي صَدْرِي فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُ مَلَكٌ وَ يُقَالُ إِنَّهُ أَسْلَمَ وَ جَعَلَ يَدْعُو قَوْمَهُ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ

He^-saww freed him, and he was asked after his leaving, about his state and he said, ‘I looked at a tall white man who pushed me in my chest, and I knew that it was an Angel’. And it is said, ‘He became a Muslim and went on to invite his people to Islam.

حُذَيْفَةُ وَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ جَاءَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص وَ هُوَ يُصَلِّي لِيَطَأَ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهِ فَجَعَلَ يَنْكُصُ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ مَا لَكَ قَالَ إِنَّ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُ خَنْدَقاً مِنْ نَارٍ مَهُولًا وَ رَأَيْتُ مَلَائِكَةً ذَوِي أَجْنِحَةٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص لَوْ دَنَا مِنِّي لَاخْتَطَفَتْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ عُضْواً عُضْواً فَنَزَلَ‏ أَ رَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهى‏ الْآيَاتِ

Huzeyfa and Abu Hureyra, ‘Abu Jahl^-la came to the Prophet^-saww and he^-saww was praying upon his^-saww in order to step upon his^-saww neck and he^-la kept on falling over upon his heels. It was said to him^-la, ‘What is the matter with you^-la?’ He^-la said, ‘Between me^-la and him^-saww was a terrifying ditch of fire, and I^-la saw Angels with bayonets’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘If he^-la had come nearer to me^-saww, the Angels would have grabbed him limb by limb’. It was Revealed: ‘Have you seen the one who forbids [96:9] – the Verse’’.

ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ‏ أَنَّ قُرَيْشاً اجْتَمَعُوا فِي الْحِجْرِ فَتَعَاقَدُوا بِاللَّاتِ وَ الْعُزَّى وَ مَنَاةَ لَوْ رَأَيْنَا مُحَمَّداً لَقُمْنَا مَقَامَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ وَ لَنَقْتُلَنَّهُ فَدَخَلَتْ فَاطِمَةُ ع عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ص بَاكِيَةً وَ حَكَتْ مَقَالَهُمْ فَقَالَ يَا بُنَيَّةِ أَحْضِرِي لِي وَضُوءاً فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ قَالُوا هَا هُوَ ذَا وَ خُفِضَتْ رُءُوسُهُمْ وَ سَقَطَتْ أَذْقَانُهُمْ فِي صُدُورِهِمْ فَلَمْ يَصِلْ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ

Ibn Abbas, ‘Quraysh gathered by the (Black) Stone and they made a pact with Al Laat and Al Uzza and Manaat, ‘If we see Muhammad^-saww we will (all) stand in the place of one man and we shall kill him^-saww’. (Syeda) Fatima^-asws came to the Prophet^-saww crying and related their words. He^-saww said: ‘O daughter! Present the (water for) Wudu’u for me^-saww’. He^-saww performed Wudu’u then went out to the Masjid. When they saw him^-saww, they said, ‘There he^-saww is!’, and their heads lowered and their chins fell upon their chests, and no man from them could come near him^-saww.

فَأَخَذَ النَّبِيُّ ص قَبْضَةً مِنَ التُّرَابِ فَحَصَبَهُمْ‏ بِهَا وَ قَالَ شَاهَتِ‏ الْوُجُوهُ‏ فَمَا أَصَابَ رَجُلًا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا قُتِلَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ

The Prophet^-saww grabbed a handful of soil and pelted their faces and said: ‘May the faces be ugly’. No man from them was hit except he died on the day of (battle of) Badr’.

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ‏ لَمَّا خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ص مُهَاجِراً تَبِعَهُ سُرَاقَةُ بْنُ جُعْشُمٍ مَعَ خَيْلِهِ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص دَعَا فَكَانَ قَوَائِمُ فَرَسِهِ سَاخَتْ حَتَّى تَغَيَّبَتْ فَتَضَرَّعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص حَتَّى دَعَا وَ صَارَ إِلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ فَقَصَدَ كَذَلِكَ ثَلَاثاً وَ النَّبِيُّ ص يَقُولُ يَا أَرْضُ خُذِيهِ وَ إِذَا تَضَرَّعَ قَالَ دَعِيهِ فَكَفَّ بَعْدَ الرَّابِعَةِ وَ أَضْمَرَ أَنْ لَا يَعُودَ إِلَى مَا يَسُوؤُهُ

Muhammad Bin Is’haq, ‘When the Prophet^-saww went out emigrating, Suraqah Bin Ja’sham pursued him^-saww with his horse. When Rasool-Allah^-saww saw him, he^-saww supplicated (against him). The legs of his horse submerged until they (almost) disappeared. He beseeched to the Prophet until he^-saww supplicated (for him) until it came to the surface of the earth. He aimed like that thrice, and the Prophet^-saww said: ‘O ground! Seize him!’ And when he beseeched, he^-saww said: ‘Leave him’. He refrained after the fourth (time) and swore that he will not repeat to what evil he had done’.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ وَ اتَّبَعَهُ دُخَانٌ حَتَّى اسْتَغَاثَهُ فَانْطَلَقَتِ الْفَرَسُ فَعَذَلَهُ أَبُو جَهْلٍ فَقَالَ سُرَاقَةُ

أَبَا حَكَمٍ وَ اللَّاتِ لَوْ كُنْتَ شَاهِداً		لِأَمْرِ جَوَادِي إِذْ تَسِيخُ قَوَائِمُهُ‏

عَلَيْكَ فَكَفَّ النَّاسُ عَنْهُ فَإِنَّنِي‏		أَرَى أَمْرَهُ يَوْماً سَتَبْدُو مَعَالِمُهُ‏

And in a report – ‘And smoke followed him until he sought help, the horse was freed and Abu Jahl^-la humiliated him. Suraqa said, ‘O Abu Hakam, by Al Lat, if you had witnessed what happened to my horse when its legs sank into the ground, you would have been amazed. Yet you would not doubt that Muhammad^-saww is a Prophet^-saww and possesses a proof. Who then can conceal this from him^-saww? Leave him^-saww alone and restrain the people from harming him^-saww, for I see that one day the signs of his affair will become manifest’.

وَ كَانَ ص مَارّاً فِي بَطْحَاءِ مَكَّةَ فَرَمَاهُ أَبُو جَهْلٍ بِحَصَاةٍ فَوَقَفَتِ الْحَصَاةُ مُعَلَّقَةً سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَ لَيَالِيَهَا فَقَالُوا مَنْ يَرْفَعُهَا قَالَ يَرْفَعُهُ‏ الَّذِي رَفَعَ السَّماواتِ بِغَيْرِ عَمَدٍ تَرَوْنَها

And he^-saww was passing by in Bat’ha Makkah and Abu Jahl^-la pelted him^-saww with pebbles, and the pebbles got suspended (in the air) for seven days and its nights. They said, ‘Who raised these’. He^-saww said: ‘Allah is the One Who Raised the skies without a pillar you can see [13:2]’.

عِكْرِمَةُ لَمَّا غَزَا يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ قَصَدَ إِلَيْهِ شَيْبَةُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَوَجَدَ عَبَّاساً فَأَتَى عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَوَجَدَ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ بْنَ الْحَارِثِ فَأَتَى مِنْ خَلْفِهِ فَوَقَعَتْ بَيْنَهُمَا شُوَاظٌ مِنْ نَارٍ فَرَجَعَ الْقَهْقَرَى

Ikramah, ‘When there was a military expedition of (battle of) Hunayn, Shayba Bin Usman Bin Abu Talha aimed to him^-saww from his^-saww right and he found Abbas. Then he came from his^-saww left and found Abu Sufyan Bin Al Haris. Then he came from behind him^-saww and a flame of fire occurred between them, so he returned on his heels.

فَرَجَعَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِلَيْهِ وَ قَالَ يَا شَيْبُ يَا شَيْبُ ادْنُ مِنِّي اللَّهُمَّ أَذْهِبْ عَنْهُ الشَّيْطَانَ قَالَ فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَ لَهُوَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ سَمْعِي وَ بَصَرِي فَقَالَ يَا شَيْبُ قَاتِلِ الْكُفَّارَ فَلَمَّا انْقَضَى الْقِتَالُ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ الَّذِي أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِكَ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا أَرَدْتَهُ لِنَفْسِكَ وَ حَدَّثَهُ بِجَمِيعِ مَا زَوَى‏ فِي نَفْسِهِ فَأَسْلَمَ

The Prophet^-saww returned to him and said: ‘O Shayb! O Shayb! Come near me^-saww. O Allah^-azwj Remove the Satan^-la from him’. I looked at him and he was more beloved to me than my hearing and my sight. He^-saww said: ‘O Shayb! Fight the Kafirs’. When the fighting ended, he^-saww came to him and said: ‘That which Allah^-azwj Wanted with you is better than what you wanted for yourself’, and narrated him the entirety of the good advice regarding himself. He became a Muslim’.

ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ‏ فِي قَوْلِهِ‏ وَ يُرْسِلُ الصَّواعِقَ‏ قَالَ قَالَ عَامِرُ بْنُ الطُّفَيْلِ لِأَرْبَدَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَدْ شَغَلْتُهُ عَنْكَ مِرَاراً فَأَلَّا ضَرَبْتَهُ يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ ص فَقَالَ أَرْبَدُ أَرَدْتُ ذَلِكَ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَاعْتَرَضَ لِي فِي أَحَدِهِمَا حَائِطٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُكَ الثَّانِيَةَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُ أَ فَأَقْتُلُكَ

Ibn Abbas regarding His^-azwj Words: and He Sends the thunderbolts, [13:13], said, ‘Amir Bin Al Tufayl said to Arbad Bin Qays, ‘I have pre-occupied him^-saww from you many times, shall I strike him^-saww?’ – meaning the Prophet^-saww. Arbad said, ‘I wanted that twice, and during one of them there presented to me a wall of iron. Then I saw you to be between me and him^-saww during the second time, so shall I kill you?’

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ الْكَلْبِيِ‏ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا اخْتَرَطَ مِنْ سَيْفِهِ شِبْراً لَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى سَلِّهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنِيهِمَا بِمَا شِئْتَ

And in a report of Al Kalby, ‘When I selected a palms width from his^-saww sword, I was not able upon unsheathing it. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Enshroud them with whatever You^-azwj so Desire to’.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أَنَّ السَّيْفَ لَصِقَ بِهِ وَ فِي الرِّوَايَاتِ كُلِّهَا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَصِلْ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمَا إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ أَمَّا عَامِرٌ فَغَدَّ فِي دِيَارِ بَنِي سَلُولٍ فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ أَ غُدَّةً كَغُدَّةِ الْبَعِيرِ وَ مَوْتاً فِي بَيْتِ السَّلُولِيَّةِ وَ أَمَّا أَرْبَدُ فَارْتَفَعَتْ لَهُ سَحَابَةٌ فَرَمَتْهُ بِصَاعِقَةٍ فَأَحْرَقَتْهُ

And in a report, ‘The sword stuck to him’. And in the reports, all of them, ‘Not one of them could arrive to his house. As for Aamir, he spent the night in the houses of the houses of the clan of Saloul, and he went on to say, ‘I stayed like the staying of the camel, and died in the house of Al-Saloula. And as for Arbad, a cloud raised for him and pelted him with a thunderbolt and incinerated him.

وَ كَانَ أَخَا لَبِيدٍ لِأُمِّهِ فَقَالَ يَرْثِيهِ‏

أَخْشَى عَلَى أَرْبَدِ الْحُتُوفِ وَ لَا		أَرْهَبُ نَوْءَ السِّمَاكِ وَ الْأَسَدِ

And there was a brother of Labeyd of his brother who prosed, ‘The thunder and lightning struck me with grief over the horseman on the day of battle, the courageous warrior. I fear for Arbad from the blows of death, yet I do not fear the rising of Al Simak and Al Asad’.

And Al Asad Ibn Abbas and Anas (well-known fabricator) and Abdullah Bin Magfal, ‘Eighty men from the people of Makkah descended from mount Al-Taneem during Salat Al-Fajr in the year of Al-Hudeybiyya in order to kill them’.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ص جَالِساً فِي ظِلِّ شَجَرَةٍ وَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ عَلِيٌّ ع يَكْتُبُ الصُّلْحَ وَ هُمْ ثَلَاثُونَ شَابّاً فَدَعَا عَلَيْهِمُ النَّبِيُّ ص فَأَخَذَ اللَّهُ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ حَتَّى أَخَذْنَاهُمْ فَخَلَّى سَبِيلَهُمْ فَنَزَلَ‏ وَ هُوَ الَّذِي كَفَّ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَنْكُمْ‏

And in a report, ‘The Prophet^-saww was seated in the shade of a tree and in front of him^-saww was Ali^-asws writing the treaty, and they were thirty young men. The Prophet^-saww supplicated against them and Allah^-azwj Seized their sights until we seized them and freed their way. It was Revealed: And He is the One Who Restrained their hand from you [48:24]’.

Ibn Jubeyr and Ibn Abbas and Muhammad Bin Sowr regarding His^-azwj Words: So proclaim what you are Commanded with [15:94] – the Verses. The scoffers at him^-saww were a group like Al-Waleed bin Al-Mugheira Al-Makhzumy, and Al-Aswad Bin Abd Yagous Al-Zuhry, and Abu Zam’a Al-Aswad Bin Al-Muttalib, and Al-Aas Bin Wail Al-Samhy, and Al-Haris Bin Qays Al-Sahmy, and Aqabah Bin Abu Mueet, and Fayhala Bin Aamir Al-Fahry, and Al-Aswad Bin Al-Haris, and Abu Hayha and Saeed Bin Al-Aas, and Al-Nazar Bin Al-Haris Al-Abdy, and Al-Hakam Bin Al-Aas Bin Amiya, and Orbah Bin Rabie, and Taiyma Bin Uday, and Al-Haris Bin Aamir Bin Nowfal, and Abu Al-Bakhtary Al-Aas Bin Hashim Bin Asad, and Abu Jahl^-la and Abu Lahab^-la.

لَهَبٍ وَ كُلُّهُمْ قَدْ أَفْنَاهُمُ اللَّهُ بِأَشَدِّ نَكَالٍ وَ كَانُوا قَالُوا لَهُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ نَنْتَظِرُ بِكَ إِلَى الظُّهْرِ فَإِنْ رَجَعْتَ عَنْ قَوْلِكَ وَ إِلَّا قَتَلْنَاكَ فَدَخَلَ ص مَنْزِلَهُ وَ أَغْلَقَ عَلَيْهِ بَابَهُ فَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ سَاعَتَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ السَّلَامُ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ اصْدَعْ بِمَا تُؤْمَرُ وَ أَنَا مَعَكَ‏ وَ قَدْ أَمَرَنِي رَبِّي بِطَاعَتِكَ

And all of them, Allah^-azwj had annihilate them with the severest of the Punishments, and they said to him^-saww, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! We will wait for you^-saww to the back, so if you^-saww return from your^-saww words, or else we will kill you^-saww. He^-saww entered his^-saww house and closed his^-saww door and Jibraeel^-as came to him^-saww at that moment and said to him^-saww: ‘O Muhammad^-saww! Al-Salaam Conveys the Salaam unto you^-saww and He^-azwj is Saying: “And proclaim what you^-saww are Commanded with and I^-azwj will be with you^-saww”, and my^-as Lord^-azwj has Commanded me^-as with obeying you^-saww.

فَلَمَّا أَتَيَا الْبَيْتَ رَمَى الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ الْمُطَّلِبِ فِي وَجْهِهِ بِوَرَقَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَعْمِ بَصَرَهُ وَ أَثْكِلْهُ وَلَدَهُ فَعَمِيَ وَ أَثْكَلَهُ اللَّهُ وَلَدَهُ

When they came to the house, he^-as pelted Al-Aswad Bin Al-Matlab in his face with a green leaf, and he^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Blind his sight and Bereft him of his son’. He was blinded and Allah^-azwj Bereaved him of his son’.

وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُ أَشَارَ إِلَى عَيْنِهِ فَعَمِيَ وَ جَعَلَ يَضْرِبُ رَأْسَهُ عَلَى الْجِدَارِ حَتَّى هَلَكَ ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِهِ الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى بَطْنِهِ فَاسْتَسْقَى مَاءً وَ مَاتَ حَبَناً وَ مَرَّ بِهِ الْوَلِيدُ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى جُرْحٍ انْدَمَلَ فِي بَطْنِ رِجْلِهِ مِنْ نَبْلٍ فَتَعَلَّقَتْ بِهِ شَوْكَةُ فَنَنٍ‏ فَخَدَشَتْ سَاقَهُ وَ لَمْ يَزَلْ مَرِيضاً حَتَّى مَاتَ

It is reported he^-as gestured towards his eyes and he was blinded and went on to hit his head at the wall until he died. Then he^-saww passed by Al-Aswad Bin Abd Yagous, and he^-as gestured towards his belly, and he kept on drinking water and died of obesity. And he^-as passed by Al-Waleed and gestured towards an injury of a cut in the bottom of his leg from an arrow, its head touched him. It scratched his leg and he did not cease to be sick until he died.

وَ نَزَلَ فِيهِ‏ سَأُرْهِقُهُ صَعُوداً وَ إِنَّهُ يُكَلَّفُ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ جَبَلًا فِي النَّارِ مِنْ صَخْرَةٍ مَلْسَاءَ فَإِذَا بَلَغَ أَعْلَاهَا لَمْ يُتْرَكْ أَنْ يَتَنَفَّسَ فَيُجْذَبُ إِلَى أَسْفَلِهَا ثُمَّ يُكَلَّفُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَ مَرَّ بِهِ الْعَاصُ فَعَابَهُ فَخَرَجَ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ فَلَفَحَتْهُ السَّمُومُ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ إِلَى دَارِهِ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهُ فَبَاعَدُوهُ فَمَاتَ غَمّاً

And it was Revealed: proclaim what you are Commanded with [15:94], and he is being encumbered to ascend a mountain in the Fire of smooth rocks. When he reaches its top, he is not left alone even to breathe, he is thrown to its bottom. Then he is encumbered like that (repeatedly)’. And Al-Aas passed by him^-saww, and stained him^-saww. He went out from his house and the toxins infected him. When he left to go to his house, they did not recognise him and distanced (from) him and he died gloomy’.

وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُمْ غَضِبُوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَتَلُوهُ

It is reported that they were angered upon him and they killed him.

وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُ وَطِئَ عَلَى شِبْرِقَةٍ فَدَخَلَتْ فِي أَخْمَصِ رِجْلِهِ فَقَالَ لُدِغْتُ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَحُكُّهَا حَتَّى مَاتَ وَ مَرَّ بِهِ الْحَارِثُ فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَى رَأْسِهِ فَتَقَيَّأَ قَيْحاً وَ يُقَالُ إِنَّهُ لَدَغَتْهُ الْحَيَّةُ

And it is reported that he trod upon a sharp object and it entered into the bottom of his leg. He said, ‘A sting’. He did not cease saying it until he died. And Al-Haris passed by him^-saww, and he^-as gestured to his head, and he vomited. And it is said, ‘The snake stung him.

وَ يُقَالُ خَرَجَ إِلَى كُدًى فَتَدَهْدَهَ عَلَيْهِ حَجَرٌ فَتَقَطَّعَ أَوِ اسْتَقْبَلَ ابْنَهُ فِي سَفَرٍ فَضَرَبَ جَبْرَئِيلُ رَأْسَهُ عَلَى شَجَرَةٍ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا بُنَيَّ أَدْرِكْنِي فَيَقُولُ لَا أَرَى أَحَداً حَتَّى مَاتَ

And it is said, ‘He went out to a hill and a stone rolled down upon him and he was cut, or his son met him in a journey and Jibraeel^-as struck his head unto a tree and he was saying, ‘My son, help me!’ He said, ‘I will not see anyone’ until he died.

وَ أَمَّا الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ أَكَلَ حُوتاً فَأَصَابَهُ الْعَطَشُ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَشْرَبُ الْمَاءَ حَتَّى انْشَقَّتْ بَطْنُهُ وَ أَمَّا فَيْهَلَةُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ فَخَرَجَ يُرِيدُ الطَّائِفَ فَفُقِدَ وَ لَمْ يُوجَدْ وَ أَمَّا عَيْطَلَةُ فَاسْتَسْقَى فَمَاتَ وَ يُقَالُ أَتَى بِشَوْكٍ فَأَصَابَ عَيْنَيْهِ فَسَالَتْ حَدَقَتُهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ

And as for Al-Aswad Bin Al-Haris, he ate a fish and was hit by thirst, and he did not cease to drink until his belly was split. And as for Fayhla Bin Aamir, he went out intending Al-Taif and got lost and was not found (again). And as for Aytalah (Aqabah), he became thirsty and died, and it is said he was injured by a fork in his eye and his cheek came to his face.

وَ أَمَّا أَبُو لَهَبٍ فَإِنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ عَنْ قِصَّةِ بَدْرٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّا لَقِينَاهُمْ فَمَنَحْنَاهُمْ أَكْتَافَنَا فَجَعَلُوا يَقْتُلُونَنَا وَ يَأْسِرُونَنَا كَيْفَ شَاءُوا وَ ايْمُ اللَّهِ مَعَ ذَلِكَ مَا مَكَثَ‏ النَّاسُ لَقِينَا رِجَالًا بِيضاً عَلَى خَيْلٍ بُلْقٍ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَ الْأَرْضِ لَا يَقُومُ لَهَا شَيْ‏ءٌ

And as for Abu Lahab^-la, he^-la was asked by Abu Sufyan about the story of Badr. He^-la said: ‘We met them (in battle) and curved our shoulders but they went on killing us and imprisoning us however they desired to. I swear by Allah^-azwj with that, white men upon horses kept fighting us hanging between the sky and the earth, nothing could withstand it’.

فَقَالَ أَبُو رَافِعٍ لِأُمِّ الْفَضْلِ بِنْتِ الْعَبَّاسِ تِلْكَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ فَجَعَلَ يَضْرِبُنِي فَضَرَبَتْ أُمُّ الْفَضْلِ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ بِعَمُودِ الْخَيْمَةِ فَلَقَتْ‏ رَأْسَهُ شَجَّةٌ مُنْكَرَةٌ فَعَاشَ سَبْعَ لَيَالٍ وَ قَدْ رَمَاهُ اللَّهُ بِالْعَدَسَةِ وَ لَقَدْ تَرَكَهُ ابْنَاهُ ثَلَاثاً لَا يَدْفِنَانِهِ وَ كَانَتْ قُرَيْشٌ تَتَّقِي الْعَدَسَةَ فَدَفَنُوهُ بِأَعْلَى مَكَّةَ عَلَى جِدَارٍ وَ قَذَفُوا عَلَيْهِ الْحِجَارَةَ حَتَّى وَارَوْهُ

Abu Rafie said to Umm Fazal daughter of Al-Abbas, ‘Those were Angels, and they went on hitting me’. Umm Al-Fazal struck upon his head with a pillar of the tent. His head was split and he lived for seven nights, and Allah^-azwj Inflicted him with the plague, and his sons left him for three days not burying him, and Quraysh used to fear the plague, and they buried him at the high ground of Makkah upon a wall, and threw stones upon him until they covered him’.

وَ نَزَلَ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى‏ لَقَدْ حَقَّ الْقَوْلُ‏ الْآيَاتِ فِي أَبِي جَهْلٍ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ حَلَفَ لَئِنْ رَأَى مُحَمَّداً يُصَلِّي لَيَرْضَخَنَّ رَأْسَهُ فَأَتَاهُ وَ هُوَ يُصَلِّي وَ مَعَهُ حَجَرٌ لِيَدْمَغَنَّهُ‏ فَلَمَّا رَفَعَهُ أُثْبِتَتْ يَدُهُ إِلَى عُنُقِهِ وَ لَزِقَ الْحَجَرُ بِيَدِهِ فَلَمَّا عَادَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ وَ أَخْبَرَهُمْ بِمَا رَأَى سَقَطَ الْحَجَرُ مِنْ يَدِهِ

And the Words of the Exalted were Revealed: The Word has proved true [36:7] – Verses regarding Abu Jahl^-la, and that is because he had vowed that if he were to see Muhammad^-saww praying Salat, he would crack his^-saww head, and with him was a stone to crush him^-saww with. When he raised it, his hand got stuck to his neck and the stone got stuck in his hand. When he returned to his companions and informed them with what he had seen, the stone fell from his hand.

فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ أَنَا أَقْتُلُهُ بِهَذَا الْحَجَرِ فَأَتَاهُ وَ هُوَ يُصَلِّي لِيَرْمِيَهُ بِالْحَجَرِ فَأَغْشَى اللَّهُ بَصَرَهُ فَجَعَلَ يَسْمَعُ صَوْتَهُ وَ لَا يَرَاهُ فَرَجَعَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَلَمْ يَرَهُمْ حَتَّى نَادَوْهُ مَا صَنَعْتَ فَقَالَ مَا رَأَيْتُهُ وَ لَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَهُ وَ حَالَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُ كَهَيْئَةِ الْفَحْلِ يَخْطِرُ بِذَنَبِهِ لَوْ دَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ لَأَكَلَنِي

A man from the clan of Makhzoum said, ‘I will kill him^-saww with this stone, and came to him^-saww while he^-saww was praying Salat in order to hit him^-saww with the stone, but Allah^-azwj Covered his sight, and he heard his^-saww voice but could not see him^-saww. He returned to his companions but did not see them until they called out to him, ‘What did you do?’ He said, ‘I did not see him, and I had heard his^-saww voice, and there was a barrier between me and him^-saww as if it was a beast swinging with its tail. If I had gone near him^-saww, it would have devoured me’.

ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ‏ فِي قَوْلِهِ‏ وَ جَعَلْنا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا أَنَّ قُرَيْشاً اجْتَمَعَتْ فَقَالَتْ لَئِنْ دَخَلَ مُحَمَّدٌ لَنَقُومَنَّ إِلَيْهِ قِيَامَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ فَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ص فَجَعَلَ اللَّهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدّاً فَلَمْ يُبْصِرُوهُ

Ibn Abbas regarding His^-azwj Words: And We Made a barrier to be from their front and a barrier from their back, and We Covered them, so they are not seeing [36:9], Quraysh gathered and said, ‘If Muhammad^-saww enters (the Masjid), we will stand to him^-saww the standing of one man’. The Prophet^-saww entered and Allah^-azwj Made a barrier to be in front of them so they could not see him^-saww.

فَصَلَّى ص ثُمَّ أَتَاهُمْ فَجَعَلَ يَنْثُرُ عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمُ التُّرَابَ وَ هُمْ لَا يَرَوْنَهُ فَلَمَّا جَلَى عَنْهُمْ رَأَوُا التُّرَابَ فَقَالُوا هَذَا مَا سَحَرَكُمُ ابْنُ أَبِي كَبْشَةَ

He^-saww prayed Salat, then came to them and went on to scatter the soil upon them and they were not seeing him^-saww. When the gust of soil moved away from them, they said, ‘This is what Ibn Abu Kabasha has bewitched you all with.

وَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتِ الْأَحْزَابُ عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ عَبَّى أَبُو سُفْيَانَ سَبْعَةَ آلَافِ رَامٍ كَوْكَبَةً وَاحِدَةً ثُمَّ قَالَ ارْمُوهُمْ رَشْقاً وَاحِداً فَوَقَعَ فِي أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ص سِهَامٌ كَثِيرَةٌ فَشَكَوْا ذَلِكَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَلَوَّحَ إِلَى السِّهَامِ بِكُمِّهِ وَ دَعَا بِدَعَوَاتٍ فَهَبَّتْ رِيحٌ عَاصِفَةٌ فَرُدَّتِ السِّهَامُ‏ إِلَى الْقَوْمِ فَكُلُّ مَنْ رَمَى سَهْماً عَادَ السَّهْمُ إِلَيْهِ فَوَقَعَ فِيهِ جُرْحُهُ بِقُدْرَةِ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَةِ رَسُولِهِ

And when the allied descended unto Medina Abu Sufyan prepared seven thousand as one force then said, ‘Shoot (arrows) at them as one dart’, so a lot of arrows fell upon the companions of the Prophet^-saww. They complained of the to the Prophet^-saww, so he^-saww turned towards the arrows a bit and supplicated with a supplication, and a stormy wind descended and returned the arrows to the people. Every one who shot an arrow, it returned to him and fell into him, injuring him by the Power of Allah(s.w.t.) and Blessings of His^-azwj Rasool^-saww’.

وَ دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ص مَعَ مَيْسَرَةَ إِلَى حِصْنٍ مِنْ حُصُونِ الْيَهُودِ لِيَشْتَرُوا خُبْزاً وَ أُدْماً فَقَالَ يَهُودِيٌّ عِنْدِي مُرَادُكَ وَ مَضَى إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ وَ قَالَ لِزَوْجَتِهِ أَطْلِعِي إِلَى عَالِي الدَّارِ فَإِذَا دَخَلَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ فَارْمِي هَذِهِ الصَّخْرَةَ عَلَيْهِ فَأَدَارَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ الصَّخْرَةَ فَهَبَطَ جَبْرَئِيلُ فَضَرَبَ الصَّخْرَةَ بِجَنَاحِهِ فَخَرَقَتِ الْجِدَارُ وَ أَتَتْ تَهْتَزُّ كَأَنَّهَا صَاعِقَةٌ فَأَحَاطَتْ بِحَلْقِ الْمَلْعُونِ وَ صَارَتْ فِي عُنُقِهِ كَدَوْرِ الرَّحَى‏ فَوَقَعَ كَأَنَّهُ الْمَصْرُوعُ

And the Prophet^-saww entered with Maysara to a fortress from the fortresses of the Jews in order to buy bread and sauce. A Jew said, ‘With me is what you want’, and he went to his house and said to his wife, ‘Come to the top of the house, so when this man enters, then throw this rock upon him’. Jibraeel^-as descended and struck the rock with his^-as wing and the wall broke and it came down shaking as if it was a thunderbolt. It surrounded the throat of the accursed and came to be in his neck like stone of the mill, and he fell down as if he has an epileptic fit.

فَلَمَّا أَفَاقَ جَلَسَ وَ هُوَ يَبْكِي فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص وَيْلَكَ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى هَذَا الْفِعَالِ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِي فِي الْمَتَاعِ حَاجَةٌ بَلْ أَرَدْتُ قَتْلَكَ وَ أَنْتَ مَعْدِنُ الْكَرَمِ وَ سَيِّدُ الْعَرَبِ وَ الْعَجَمِ اعْفُ عَنِّي فَرَحِمَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص فَانْزَاحَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ عَنْ عُنُقِهِ

When he awoke, he sat up and he was crying. The Prophet^-saww said to him: ‘Woe be unto you! What carried you upon this deed?’ He said, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! There is no need for me regarding the belongings, but I wanted to kill you^-saww, and you^-saww are a mine of benevolence, and Chief of the Arabs and the non-Arabs. Pardon me’. The Prophet^-saww had mercy on him and the rock moved away from his neck’.

جَابِرٌ وَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ‏ قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ لَأَقْتُلَنَّ مُحَمَّداً فَوَثَبَ بِهِ فَرَسُهُ فَانْدَقَّتْ رَقَبَتُهُ وَ اسْتَغَاثَ النَّاسَ إِلَى مَعْمَرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ وَ كَانَ أَشْجَعَ النَّاسِ وَ مُطَاعاً فِي بَنِي كِنَانَةَ فَقَالَ لِقُرَيْشٍ أَنَا أُرِيحُكُمْ مِنْهُ فَعِنْدِي عِشْرُونَ أَلْفَ مُدَجِّجٍ فَلَا أَرَى هَذَا الْحَيَّ مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ يَقْدِرُونَ عَلَى حَرْبِي فَإِنْ سَأَلُونِيَ الدِّيَةَ أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ عَشْرَ دِيَاتٍ فَفِي مَالِي سَعَةٌ وَ كَانَ يَتَقَلَّدُ بِسَيْفٍ طُولُهُ عَشَرَةُ أَشْبَارٍ فِي عَرْضِ شِبْرٍ

Jabir and Ibn Abbas, ‘A man from Quraysh said, ‘I will kill Muhammad^-saww’. His horse leapt at him and his neck snapped; and the people sought help to Ma’mar Bin Yazeed and he was the bravest of the people and obedient among the clan of Kanana. He said to Quraysh, ‘I shall give you rest from him^-saww, for with me there are a thousand heavily armed ones, so I don’t see this living one from the Clan of Hashim^-as able upon the battling me. So, if they were to ask me for the wergild, I shall give them ten wergilds, for there is capacity in my wealth’, and he collared with a sword, its length being of ten palms width by one palm’s width.

فَأَهْوَى إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص بِسَيْفِهِ وَ هُوَ سَاجِدٌ فِي الْحِجْرِ فَلَمَّا قَرُبَ مِنْهُ عَثَرَ بِدِرْعِهِ فَوَقَعَ ثُمَّ قَامَ وَ قَدْ أُدْمِيَ وَجْهُهُ بِالْحِجَارَةِ وَ هُوَ يَعْدُو أَشَدَّ الْعَدْوِ حَتَّى بَلَغَ الْبَطْحَاءَ فَاجْتَمَعُوا إِلَيْهِ وَ غَسَلُوا الدَّمَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ وَ قَالُوا مَا ذَا أَصَابَكَ فَقَالَ الْمَغْرُورُ وَ اللَّهِ مَنْ غَرَرْتُمُوهُ

He swooped to the Prophet^-saww with his sword while he^-saww was doing Sajdah by the (Black) Stone. When he went near him^-saww, he stumbled with his armour and fell, Then he stood up and his face was bleeding with the rock, and he was inimical with the severest of the enmity until he reached Al-Bat’ha. They gathered to him and washed off the blood from his face and they said, ‘What is that which injured you?’ He said, ‘I was deceived by the one I tried to deceive’.

قَالُوا مَا شَأْنُكَ قَالَ دَعُونِي تَعُدْ إِلَىَّ نَفْسِي مَا رَأَيْتُ كَالْيَوْمِ قَالُوا مَا ذَا أَصَابَكَ قَالَ لَمَّا دَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ وَثَبَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَأْسِهِ شُجَاعَانِ أَقْرَعَانِ يَنْفُخَانِ بِالنِّيرَانِ

They said, ‘What is your concern (now)?’ He said, ‘Leave me to prepare myself. I have not seen like today’. They said, ‘What did injure you?’ He said, ‘When I went near him^-saww, two ferocious serpents leapt up at me from by his^-saww head blowing out flames’.

It is reported that Kaldah Bin Asad pelted Rasool-Allah^-saww with a short spear and he^-saww was between house of Aqeel and Aqaal. The spear returned to him and fell into his chest. He returned in panic and was defeated, and it was said to him, ‘What is the matter with you?’ He said, ‘Woe be unto you! But did you not see the bull behind me?’ They said, ‘We did not see anything’. He said, ‘Woe be unto you! I did see it’. He did not cease running until he reached Al-Taif’.

Al-Waqidi, ‘The Prophet^-saww went out for the need in the middle of the day far away. He^-saww reached to the bottom of the mountain pass of Al-Hajoun. Al-Nazar Bin Al-Haris followed him^-saww hoping to assassinate him^-saww. When he went near him^-saww, returned. Abu Jahl^-la met him and said, ‘Where are you coming from?’ He said, ‘I wished to assassinate Muhammad^-saww, but when I went near him^-saww, there was a black snake upon his^-saww head opening its fangs, opening its mouth’. Abu Jahl^-la said, ‘This is part of his^-saww sorcery’.

And a man aimed to him^-saww with a rock while he^-saww was in Sajdah. When he raised his hand to pelt him^-saww with it, his hand dried up upon the rock’.

Ibn Abbas, ‘The Prophet^-saww was reciting in the Masjid and he^-saww was loud with his^-saww recitation and the people from Quraysh were bothered by it. They stood up in order to seize him^-saww, and their hands were gathered to their own necks (stuck), and they became blind and could not see. They came to the Prophet^-saww and said: ‘We adjure you^-saww with Allah^-azwj and the mercy’. The Prophet^-saww supplicated and that went away from them. It was Revealed: Ya Seen [36:1] – up to His^-azwj Words: so they are not seeing [36:9]’.

أَبُو ذَرٍّ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ص فِي سُجُودِهِ فَرَفَعَ أَبُو لَهَبٍ حَجَراً يُلْقِيهِ عَلَيْهِ فَثَبَتَتْ‏ يَدُهُ فِي الْهَوَاءِ فَتَضَرَّعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص وَ عَقَدَ الْأَيْمَانَ لَوْ عُوفِيَ لَا يُؤْذِيهِ فَلَمَّا بَرَأَ قَالَ لَأَنْتَ سَاحِرٌ حَاذِقٌ فَنَزَلَ‏ تَبَّتْ يَدا أَبِي لَهَبٍ‏

Abu Zarr^-ra, ‘The Prophet^-saww was in his^-saww Sajdah, and Abu Lahab^-la raised a rock to throw it upon him^-saww, but his^-la hand got stuck in the air. He^-la beseeched to the Prophet^-saww and agreed with the belief if he^-la was cured, he^-la would not hurt him^-saww. When he^-la was cured, he^-la said, ‘You^-saww are a charming sorcerer’. It was Revealed: May both the hands of Abu Lahab perish [111:1]’.

And Nazar Bin Al-Haris Bin Kaldah concealed himself to kill the Prophet^-saww. When he unsheathed his sword, he was seen fearful seeking refuge. It was said, ‘O Nazar! This is better for you that what you wanted on the day of (battle of) Hunayn from what Allah^-azwj Made a barrier to be between you and him^-saww’’.[101]

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – The Prophet^-saww came to the clan of Shaja’a and went on to present Islam to them. They refused and went out to him^-saww among five thousand horsemen. They pursued the Prophet^-saww. When they met him^-saww, he^-saww dealt with them with supplications. A wind descended unto them and kill them, from their last one’’.[102]

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – Ibn Qameet pelted Rasool-Allah^-saww with rubbish. His heel was hit until the sword fell from his hand during the day of (battle of) Badr, and he said, ‘Take it from me and I am Ibn Qameet’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘May Allah^-azwj Disgrace you and Repress you!’ A goat came to Ibn Qameet while he was sleeping and placed its horn inside him and stabbed him, and he went on calling out, ‘O the disgrace!’ – until it brought out its horn from him’.

وَ كَانَتِ الْكُفَّارُ فِي حَرْبِ الْأَحْزَابِ عَشَرَةَ آلَافِ رَجُلٍ وَ بَنُو قُرَيْظَةَ قَائِمُونَ بِنُصْرَتِهِمْ وَ الصَّحَابَةُ فِي أَزْلٍ‏ شَدِيدٍ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ وَ قَالَ يَا مُنَزِّلَ الْكِتَابِ سَرِيعَ الْحِسَابِ اهْزِمِ الْأَحْزَابَ فَجَاءَتْهُمْ رِيحٌ عَاصِفٌ تَقْلَعُ خِيَامَهُمْ فَانْهَزَمُوا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَ أَيَّدَهُمْ بِجُنُودٍ لَمْ يَرَوْهَا

And the Kafirs in the water of the allies (Ahzaab) were ten thousand men and the clan of Qureyza were standing by with their help and the companions were in severe difficulties. He^-saww raised his^-saww hands and said: ‘O Revealed of the Book, quick of the Reckoning, defeat the allied forces!’ A stormy wind came to them uprooting their tents and they were defeated by the Permission of Allah^-azwj, and Aided them (Muslims) with armies they (enemies) could not see.

And on the day of (battle of) Badr grabbed a handful of soil’ – and it is said, ‘Pebbles and soil’, and he^-saww threw it in the faces of the people and the pebbles dispersed in the faces of the Polytheists. No one was hit from that except he was either killed or captured, and regarding it was Revealed: and you did not throw when you threw, but Allah Threw, [8:17]’’.[103]

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – Jabir Bin Abdullah^-ar, ‘When the people of Areyna killed a shepherd the Prophet^-saww supplicated against them. He^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Blind the road upon them’. It was blinded unto them until they were seen and seized’.

And he^-saww addressed a woman, and her father said, ‘She has vitiligo preventing form being addressed’, and there did not happen to be any vitiligo with her. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘Then let her be like that’. She contracted vitiligo, and she is Umm Shabeeb Ibn Al-Barsa’a, the poet’.

He^-saww stabbed Abaya in the shield with a walking stick during the day of (battle of) Ohad. He hugged his horse and ended up to his soldiers and he was snorting like the snorting of the bull. Abu Sufyan said, ‘Woe be unto you! What has panicked you? But rather it is only a scratch, it is nothing’. He said, ‘Ibn Abu Kabasha stabbed me’, and he^-saww was saying: ‘I^-saww will kill you’. The accursed was snorting until he came to be in the Fire’.

And when Bilal^-ra said, ‘I testify that Muhammad^-saww is Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj, there was a hypocrite saying every time, ‘May the liar burn’ – meaning the Prophet^-saww. The hypocrite stood up one night to correct the lamp and the flame fell on his forefinger. He was not able upon extinguishing it until it seized his palm, then his elbow, then his forearm, until it burnt all of him’’.[105]

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – Ibn Abbas and Al-Zahak regarding His^-azwj Words: And on the Day, the unjust one would bite [25:27]. It was Revealed regarding Mueet and Abay Bin Khalaf, and they were both the same in mannerisms. Aqabah came from his journey and gave a banquet inviting the noblemen and among them was Rasool-Allah^-saww. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘I will not eat your meal until you said, ‘There is no god except Allah^-azwj and I^-saww am Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj’. He testified the two testimonies, and he^-saww ate from his food.

When Abay Bin Khalaf came, humiliated him and said, ‘You have reneged’. He told his story. He said, ‘I will not be pleased with you until you belie him^-saww. He came to the Prophet^-saww and spat in his^-saww face, but the spittle split up and returned back to his face and burnt his face and left marks on his face. And the Prophet^-saww promised his life for as long as he is in Makkah. When he went out, he was killed by his^-saww sword. Aqabah was killed on the day of (battle of) Badr, and the Prophet^-saww kill Abaya with his^-saww hands’’.[106]

‘Tibb Al-Aimma^-asws’ – Muhammad Bin Ja’far Al-Barsy, from Muhammad Bin Yahya Al-Armany, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, form Al-Mufazzal,

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen^-asws said: ‘Jibraeel^-as came to the Prophet^-saww and said to him^-saww: ‘O Muhammad^-saww!’ He^-saww said: ‘Here I^-saww am, O Jibraeel^-as!’ He^-as said: ‘The Jews have cast a spell against you^-saww and made the spell to be in a well of the clan of so and so’, there send to it’ – meaning to the well – ‘the most reliable of the people in your^-saww presence, and the greatest of them in your^-saww eyes, and he is equal to yourself^-saww, until he comes to you with the spell’.

قَالَ فَبَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ ص عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع وَ قَالَ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى بِئْرِ ذَرْوَانَ فَإِنَّ فِيهَا سِحْراً سَحَرَنِي بِهِ لَبِيدُ بْنُ أَعْصَمَ الْيَهُودِيُّ فَأْتِنِي بِهِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي حَاجَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص

He^-asws said: ‘The Prophet^-saww sent Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws and said: ‘Go to the well of Zarwan for there is a spell in it which Labeyd Bin Aasim the Jews has cast with me^-saww, and come with it to me^-saww’.

فَهَبَطْتُ فَإِذَا مَاءُ الْبِئْرِ قَدْ صَارَ كَأَنَّهُ مَاءُ الْحِنَّاءِ مِنَ السِّحْرِ فَطَلَبْتُهُ مُسْتَعْجِلًا حَتَّى انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى أَسْفَلِ الْقَلِيبِ فَلَمْ أَظْفَرْ بِهِ قَالَ الَّذِينَ مَعِي مَا فِيهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ فَاصْعَدْ فَقُلْتُ لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا كَذَبْتُ وَ مَا كُذِبْتُ‏ وَ مَا يَقِينِي بِهِ مِثْلُ يَقِينِكُمْ يَعْنِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص

Ali^-asws said, ‘I^-asws went regarding a need of Rasool-Allah^-saww and descended, and there the water of the well had become as if it was water of henna due to the spell. I^-asws sought it hurriedly until I^-asws ended up to the bottom of the well but was not victorious with it. The ones who were with me said, ‘There is nothing in it, so climb back’. I^-asws said: ‘No, by Allah^-azwj, he^-saww did not lie and it is not false, and my conviction with him^-saww is not like your conviction’ – meaning Rasool-Allah^-saww.

The I^-asws searched subtly and brought out a wrapping. I^-asws came to the Prophet^-saww and he^-saww said: ‘Open it!’ I^-asws opened it and there it was in the wrapping a piece of a vine of the palm tree in its middle, and eleven knots had been tied upon it; and on that day Jibraeel^-as brought down Al-Muwazatain (Surah Al-Falaq and Surah Al-Naas) unto the Prophet^-saww. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘O Ali^-asws! Recite these two during (Salat) Al-Witr.

فَجَعَلَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع كُلَّمَا قَرَأَ آيَةً انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةً حَتَّى فَرَغَ مِنْهَا وَ كَشَفَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَنْ نَبِيِّهِ مَا سُحِرَ بِهِ وَ عَافَاهُ

Every time Amir Al-Momineen^-asws recited a Verse, a knot loosened until he^-saww was free from it, and Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic Removed from His^-azwj Prophet^-saww what he^-saww had been bewitched with and Cured him^-saww’.

وَ يُرْوَى‏ أَنَّ جَبْرَئِيلَ وَ مِيكَائِيلَ ع أَتَيَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَجَلَسَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَ الْآخَرُ عَنْ شِمَالِهِ فَقَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ لِمِيكَائِيلَ مَا وَجَعُ الرَّجُلِ فَقَالَ مِيكَائِيلُ هُوَ مَطْبُوبٌ فَقَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع وَ مَنْ طَبَّهُ قَالَ لَبِيدُ بْنُ أَعْصَمَ الْيَهُودِيُّ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى آخِرِهِ‏

And it is reported that Jibraeel^-as and Mikaeel^-as both came to the Prophet^-saww and one of them sat on his^-saww right and the other on his^-saww left. Jibraeel^-as said to Mikaeel^-as: ‘What is the pain of the man?’ Mikaeel^-as said: ‘He^-saww is spellbound’. Jibraeel^-as said: ‘And who spellbound him^-saww?’ He^-as said: ‘Labeyd Bin Aasim the Jew’. Then he mentioned the Hadeeth to its end’’.[107]

Notes –

و قال الطبرسي رحمه الله روي‏ أن لبيد بن أعصم اليهودي سحر رسول الله ص‏

And Al-Tabarsee reported that Labeed Bin Aasim the Jew had cast a spell on Rasool-Allah^-saww.

ثُمَّ رُوِيَ عَنِ الْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ع يَقُولُ‏ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص اشْتَكَى شَكْوَى شَدِيداً وَ وَجِعَ وَجَعاً شَدِيداً فَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ وَ مِيكَائِيلُ ع فَقَعَدَ جَبْرَئِيلُ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ وَ مِيكَائِيلُ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ فَعَوَّذَهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ بِقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَ عَوَّذَهُ مِيكَائِيلُ بِقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ

Then it is reported from Al-Fuzeyl Bin Yasaar who said, ‘I heard Abu Ja’far^-asws saying: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww had severe health complaint and suffered intense pain. Jibraeel^-as and Mikaeel^-as. Jibraeel^-as sat by his^-saww head, and Mikaeel^-as (sat) by his^-saww legs. Jibraeel^-as sought Refuge for him^-saww by Say: ‘I seek Refuge with Lord of Al-Falaq [113:1] (Surah Al-Falaq), and Mikaeel^-as sought Refuge for him^-saww by Say: ‘I seek Refuge with Lord of the people [114:1] (Surah Al-Naas)’.

وَ عَنْ أَبِي خَدِيجَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: جَاءَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص‏ وَ هُوَ شَاكٍ فَرَقَاهُ بِالْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَ قَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَرْقِيكَ وَ اللَّهُ يَشْفِيكَ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ يُؤْذِيكَ خُذْهَا فَلْتَهْنِيكَ

And from Abu Huzeyfa, from Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘Jibraeel^-as came to the Prophet^-saww, and he^-saww had a health complaint. He^-as chanted Al-Mawazateyn (chapters 113 (Surah Al-Falaq) and 114 (Surah Al-Naas)), and Say: ‘He, Allah, is One [112:1] (Surah Al-Tawheed), and said: ‘In the Name of Allah^-azwj! I^-as hereby chant to you^-saww and Allah^-azwj will Heal you^-saww from every illness harming you^-saww, so take these, it will free you^-saww!’

26- عم، إعلام الورى‏ مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِهِ ص أَنَّهُ أَخَذَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ مِلْ‏ءَ كَفِّهِ مِنَ الْحَصْبَاءِ فَرَمَى بِهَا وُجُوهَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَ قَالَ شَاهَتِ الْوُجُوهُ فَجَعَلَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ لِتِلْكَ الْحَصْبَاءِ شَأْناً عَظِيماً لَمْ يَتْرُكْ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ رَجُلًا إِلَّا مَلَأَتْ عَيْنَيْهِ وَ جَعَلَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ وَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ يَقْتُلُونَهُمْ وَ يَأْسِرُونَهُمْ وَ يَجِدُونَ كُلَّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ مُنْكَبّاً عَلَى وَجْهِهِ لَا يَدْرِي أَيْنَ يَتَوَجَّهُ يُعَالِجُ التُّرَابَ يَنْزِعُهُ مِنْ عَيْنَيْهِ

I’lam Al-Wara’ – His^-saww miracles – He^-saww grabbed a handful of gravel on the day of (battle of) Badr and threw it in the faces of the Polytheists and said: ‘Ugly be the faces!’ Allah^-azwj the Glorious Made a great occupation for that gravel. It did not leave a man from the Polytheists except it filled his eyes, and the Muslims and the Angels went on to kill them and capturing them, and every man from them was found overturned upon his face, not knowing where to head to treat the soil, to remove it from his eyes’.

وَ مِنْهَا مَا رَوَتْهُ أَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ قَالَتْ‏ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ‏ تَبَّتْ يَدا أَبِي لَهَبٍ‏ أَقْبَلَتِ الْعَوْرَاءُ أُمُّ جَمِيلٍ بِنْتِ حَرْبٍ وَ لَهَا وَلْوَلَةٌ وَ هِيَ تَقُولُ‏

مُذَمَّماً أَبَيْنَا		وَ دِينَهُ قَلَيْنَا
وَ أَمْرَهُ عَصَيْنَا

And from these is what is reported by Asma Bin Abu Bakr who said, ‘When (the Verse): May both the hands of Abu Lahab perish [111:1] was Revealed, and Al-Awra’a faced Umm Jameel Bint Harb, and there was fervour for her and she was saying (in prose), ‘He^-saww condemns our fathers and we detest his^-saww Religion, and his^-saww matter we disobey’.

وَ النَّبِيُّ ص جَالِسٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَ مَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَلَمَّا رَآهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَا أَخَافُ أَنْ تَرَاكَ‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا لَا تَرَانِي‏ وَ قَرَأَ وَ إِذا قَرَأْتَ الْقُرْآنَ جَعَلْنا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ الَّذِينَ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآخِرَةِ حِجاباً مَسْتُوراً

And the Prophet^-saww was seated in the Masjid and with him^-saww was Abu Bakr. When Abu Bakr saw her, he said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! I fear she will see you^-saww. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘She cannot see me^-saww’, and recited: And whenever you recite the Quran, We Make a hidden veil to be between you and those who are not believing in the Hereafter [17:45].

فَوَقَفَتْ عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَ لَمْ تَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَتْ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ أُخْبِرْتُ أَنَّ صَاحِبَكَ هَجَانِي فَقَالَ لَا وَ رَبِّ الْبَيْتِ مَا هَجَاكَ فَوَلَّتْ وَ هِيَ تَقُولُ قُرَيْشٌ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي بِنْتُ سَيِّدِهَا

She paused by Abu Bakr and did not see Rasool-Allah^-saww. She said, ‘O Abu Bakr! You know that your companion satirises me’. He said, ‘No, by the Lord^-azwj of the House, he^-saww does not satirise you’. She turned around and she was saying, ‘Quraysh know that I am a daughter of their chief’.

وَ مِنْهَا مَا رَوَاهُ الْكَلْبِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ‏ أَنَّ نَاساً مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ تَوَاصَوْا بِالنَّبِيِّ ص لِيَقْتُلُوهُ مِنْهُمْ أَبُو جَهْلٍ وَ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ وَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ فَبَيْنَا النَّبِيُّ ص قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي إِذْ أَرْسَلُوا إِلَيْهِ الْوَلِيدَ لِيَقْتُلَهُ فَانْطَلَقَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي كَانَ يُصَلِّي فِيهِ فَجَعَلَ يَسْمَعُ قِرَاءَتَهُ وَ لَا يَرَاهُ فَانْصَرَفَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَأَعْلَمَهُمْ ذَلِكَ

And from these is what is reported by Al-Kalby from Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas that a people from the clan of Makhzoum called the Prophet^-saww in order to kill him^-saww, from them was Abu Jahl^-la and Al-Waleed Bin Al-Mugheira and a number of the clan of Makhzoum. While the Prophet^-saww was standing praying Salat when they sent Al-Waleed to him^-saww in order to kill him^-saww. He went until he ended up to the place, which he^-saww was praying in. He went on to hear his^-saww recitation but could not see him^-saww. He left to go to them and let them know of that.

فَأَتَاهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ أَبُو جَهْلٍ وَ الْوَلِيدُ وَ نَفَرٌ مِنْهُمْ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَوْا إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي يُصَلِّي فِيهِ سَمِعُوا قِرَاءَتَهُ‏وَ ذَهَبُوا إِلَى الصَّوْتِ فَإِذَا الصَّوْتُ مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ فَيَذْهَبُونَ إِلَيْهِ فَيَسْمَعُونَهُ أَيْضاً مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ فَانْصَرَفُوا وَ لَمْ يَجِدُوا إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ سُبْحَانَهُ‏ وَ جَعَلْنا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ سَدًّا وَ مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ سَدًّا فَأَغْشَيْناهُمْ فَهُمْ لا يُبْصِرُونَ

Then after him came Abu Jahl^-la and Al-Waleed and a number of them. When they ended up at the place which he^-saww was praying in, they heard his^-saww recitation and they went towards the sound. Then the voice came from behind them. So, they went towards it, and they heard him^-saww from their back as well. They left and could not find any way to him^-saww. Therefore, due to that are the Words of the Glorious: And We Made a barrier to be from their front and a barrier from their back, and We Covered them, so they are not seeing [36:9].

وروي أن النبي قال: ما زال ملك يسترني عنها

It is reported that the Prophet^-saww said: ‘An Angel did not cease to veil me from her’’.[108]

27- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح‏ مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِهِ مَا هُوَ مَشْهُورٌ أَنَّهُ خَرَجَ فِي مُتَوَجِّهِهِ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَأَوَى إِلَى غَارٍ بِقُرْبِ مَكَّةَ تَعْتَوِرُهُ النُّزَّالُ وَ تَأْوِي إِلَيْهِ الرِّعَاءُ فَلَا تَخْلُو مِنْ جَمَاعَةٍ نَازِلِينَ يَسْتَرِيحُونَ فِيهِ فَأَقَامَ ص بِهِ ثَلَاثاً لَا يَطْرُدُهُ بَشَرٌ وَ خَرَجَ الْقَوْمُ فِي أَثَرِهِ وَ صَدَّهُمُ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ بِأَنْ بَعَثَ عَنْكَبُوتاً فَنَسَجَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَآيَسَهُمْ مِنَ الطَّلَبِ فِيهِ فَانْصَرَفُوا وَ هُوَ نَصْبُ أَعْيُنِهِمْ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – From his^-saww miracles is what is well known that he^-saww went out in his^-saww heading towards Medina, and took shelter in a cave near Makkah where the encampments used to be frequent and the shepherds used to shelter in it and it was not (usually) empty from the groups of campers taking rest in it. He^-saww stayed in it for three (days) and nor mortal trod in it; and the people went out in his^-saww tracks and Allah^-azwj Hindered them from him^-saww by Sending a spider and it spun a web upon it and despaired them from searching for him^-saww, so they left and he^-saww was in front of their eyes’’.[109]

28- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح‏ مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِهِ ص أَنَّهُ لَاقَى أَعْدَاءَهُ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ وَ هُمْ أَلْفٌ وَ هُوَ فِي عِصَابَةٍ كَثُلُثِ أَعْدَائِهِ فَلَمَّا الْتَحَمَتِ الْحَرْبُ‏ أَخَذَ قَبْضَةً مِنَ التُّرَابِ وَ الْقَوْمُ مُتَفَرِّقُونَ فِي نَوَاحِي عَسْكَرِهِ فَرَمَى بِهِ وُجُوهَهُمْ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – From his^-saww miracles is that he^-saww met his^-saww enemies on the day of (battle of) Badr and they were a thousand and he^-saww in a group of a third of their enemies (in number). When the battle clashes began, he^-saww grabbed a handful of soil and the people were dispersing in the areas of his^-saww soldiers. He^-saww threw it at their faces.

فَلَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهُمْ رَجُلٌ إِلَّا امْتَلَأَتْ مِنْهُ عَيْنَاهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَتِ الرِّيحُ الْعَاصِفُ يَوْمَهَا إِلَى اللَّيْلِ لَتَعْصِفُ أَعَاصِيرَ التُّرَابِ لَا يُصِيبُ أَحَداً مِنْ عَسْكَرِهِ وَ قَدْ نَطَقَ بِهِ الْقُرْآنَ وَ صَدَّقَ بِهِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَ شَاهَدَ الْكُفَّارُ مَا نَالَهُمْ مِنْهُ

There did not remain any man from them except his eyes were filled from it, and if was the stormy wind during its day up to the night, it would have stormed the soil everywhere, (but) no one from his^-saww soldiers was hit, and the Quran has Spoken with it, and the Momineen ratified it, and the Kafirs witnessed what they had attained from it’’.[110]

29- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب‏ كَانَ أُبَيُّ بْنُ خَلَفٍ يَقُولُ عِنْدِي رَمَكَةٌ أَعْلِفُهَا كُلَّ يَوْمٍ فَرَقَ‏ ذُرَةٍ أَقْتُلُكَ عَلَيْهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص أَنَا أَقْتُلُكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَطَعَنَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فِي عُنُقِهِ وَ خَدَشَهُ خَدْشَةً فَتَدَهْدَى عَنْ فَرَسِهِ وَ هُوَ يَخُورُ كَمَا يَخُورُ الثَّوْرُ فَقَالُوا لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَوْ كَانَتِ الطَّعْنَةُ بِرَبِيعَةَ وَ مُضَرَ لَقَتَلَهُمْ أَ لَيْسَ قَالَ لِي أَقْتُلُكَ فَلَوْ بَزَقَ عَلَيَّ بَعْدَ تِلْكَ الْمَقَالَةِ قَتَلَنِي فَمَاتَ بَعْدَ يَوْمٍ‏

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – Abay Bin Khalaf was saying, ‘There is such a horse with me I feed him every day a ‘Farq’ (19 Ratls) corn. I shall kill you being upon it’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘I^-saww shall kill you, if Allah^-azwj so Desires’. The Prophet^-saww stabbed him on the day of (battle of) Ohad in his neck, and scratched him with a scratch. He wavered on his horse and was snorting just at the bull snorts. They said to him regarding that. He said, ‘If the (tribes of) Rabie and Muzar were stabbed, it would have killed them. Did he^-saww not say to me: ‘I^-saww shall kill you’? Even if he^-saww had even spit upon me after those words, it would have killed me’. He died after one day’’.[111]

30- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح عم، إعلام الورى رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ أَبَا جَهْلٍ اشْتَرَى مِنْ رَجُلٍ طَارِئٍ‏ بِمَكَّةَ إِبِلًا فَبَخَسَهُ أَثْمَانَهَا وَ لَوَاهُ بِحَقِّهِ فَأَتَى الرَّجُلُ نَادِيَ‏ قُرَيْشٍ مُسْتَجِيراً بِهِمْ وَ ذَكَّرَهُمْ حُرْمَةَ الْبَيْتِ فَأَحَالُوهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ص اسْتِهْزَاءً فَأَتَاهُ مُسْتَجِيراً بِهِ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that Abu Jahl.^-la bought a camel from a man in Makkah, and he^-la undervalued its price and turned back with his right. The man came calling out to Quraysh, seeking help with them, and mentioned to them the Sanctity of the House (Kabah). They pointed him to the Prophet^-saww in ridicule. He came to him^-saww seeking his^-saww shelter with it.

فَمَضَى مَعَهُ وَ دَقَّ الْبَابَ عَلَى أَبِي جَهْلٍ فَعَرَفَهُ فَخَرَجَ مَنْخُوبَ الْعَقْلِ‏ فَقَالَ أَهْلًا بِأَبِي الْقَاسِمِ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَعْطِ هَذَا حَقَّهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ أَعْطَاهُ مِنْ فَوْرِهِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ مَا لَمْ تَرَوْا رَأَيْتُ وَ اللَّهِ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ تِنِّيناً فَاتِحاً فَاهُ وَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَبَيْتُ لَالْتَقَمَنِي‏

He^-saww went with him and knocked the door to Abu Jahl^-la. He^-la recognised him^-saww and came out, changed of attitude and said, ‘Welcome to Abu Al-Qasim^-saww’. He^-saww said to him^-la: ‘Give this one his right’. He^-la said: ‘Yes’, and gave him straight away. It was said to him^-la regarding that, he^-la said, ‘I^-la saw what you did not see. By Allah^-azwj! I^-la saw upon his^-saww head a dragon having opened its mouth. By Allah^-azwj! If I^-la had refused, it would have killed me^-la’’.[112]

باب 9 معجزاته ص في استيلائه على الجن و الشياطين و إيمان بعض الجن به‏

CHAPTER 9 – HIS^-saww MIRACLE REGARDING HIS^-saww OVERPOWERING UPON THE JINN AND THE SATANS^-la AND THE EMAN OF SOME OF THE JINN WITH HIM^-saww

الآيات الأحقاف‏ وَ إِذْ صَرَفْنا إِلَيْكَ نَفَراً مِنَ الْجِنِ‏ إلى قوله تعالى‏ أُولئِكَ فِي ضَلالٍ مُبِينٍ‏

The Verses – (Surah Al Ahqaaf): And when We Turned a number of the Jinn [46:29] – up to His^-azwj Words: They are in clear straying’ [46:32]

الجن‏ قُلْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ أَنَّهُ اسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَقالُوا إِنَّا سَمِعْنا قُرْآناً عَجَباً يَهْدِي إِلَى الرُّشْدِ فَآمَنَّا بِهِ وَ لَنْ نُشْرِكَ بِرَبِّنا أَحَداً إلى آخر السورة

(Surah) Al Jinn: Say: ‘It is Revealed unto me that a number of the Jinn listened intently and they said, ‘We heard an amazing recitation!’ [72:1] Guiding to the right way, so we believe in it, and we will never associate any one with our Lord [72:2] – up to the end of the Chapter.

Notes –

الْقِصَّةُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ: لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ ع اشْتَدَّ الْبَلَاءُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ‏ ص فَعَمَدَ لِثَقِيفٍ بِالطَّائِفِ رَجَاءَ أَنْ يُؤْوُوهُ فَوَجَدَ ثَلَاثَةَ نَفَرٍ مِنْهُمْ هُمْ سَادَةٌ هُمْ إِخْوَةٌ عَبْدُ يَالِيلَ وَ مَسْعُودٌ وَ حَبِيبٌ بَنُو عَمْرٍو فَعَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ نَفْسَهُ

The story from Al Zuhry who said, ‘When Abu Talib^-as died, the tribulation against Rasool-Allah^-saww became severe. He^-saww therefore went to the Saqif in Al Ta’if, hoping that they would give him^-saww protection and shelter. He^-saww met three of their leaders, who were brothers -Abd Yalil, Masud, and Habib, the sons of Amr. He^-saww presented himself (his^-saww Message) to them.

فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمْ أَنَا أَسْرِقُ ثِيَابَ الْكَعْبَةِ إِنْ كَانَ اللَّهُ بَعَثَكَ بِشَيْ‏ءٍ قَطُّ وَ قَالَ الْآخَرُ أَ عَجَزَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُرْسِلَ غَيْرَكَ وَ قَالَ الْآخَرُ وَ اللَّهِ لَا أُكَلِّمُكَ بَعْدَ مَجْلِسِكَ هَذَا أَبَداً وَ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ رَسُولًا كَمَا تَقُولُ فَلَأَنْتَ أَعْظَمُ خَطَراً مِنْ أَنْ يُرَدَّ عَلَيْكَ الْكَلَامُ وَ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَكْذِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِي أَنْ أُكَلِّمَكَ بَعْدُ

One of them said, ‘I would steal the coverings of the Kabah if Allah^-azwj had ever Sent you^-saww with anything at all.’ Another said, ‘Was Allah^-azwj unable to send anyone other than you^-saww?’ The third said, ‘By Allah^-azwj, I will never speak to you^-saww again after this gathering of yours. If you^-saww are truly a Messenger, as you^-saww claim, then you^-saww are far too important for me to respond to you^-saww; and if you^-saww are lying against Allah^-azwj, then it is not appropriate for me to speak to you^-saww thereafter’.

وَ تَهَزَّءُوا بِهِ وَ أَفْشَوْا فِي قَوْمِهِمْ‏ مَا رَاجَعُوهُ بِهِ فَقَعَدُوا لَهُ صَفَّيْنِ عَلَى طَرِيقِهِ فَلَمَّا مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بَيْنَ صَفَّيْهِمْ جَعَلُوا لَا يَرْفَعُ رِجْلَيْهِ وَ لَا يَضَعُهُمَا إِلَّا رَضَخُوهُمَا بِالْحِجَارَةِ حَتَّى أَدْمَوْا رِجْلَيْهِ

They mocked him^-saww and spread among their people what they had said to him^-saww. They then sat in two rows along his^-saww path. When Rasool-Allah^-saww passed between the two rows, they began pelting his^-saww feet with stones. Whenever he^-saww lifted one foot and placed it down, they struck it with stones until they made his^-saww feet bleed. He^-saww managed to get away from them, with blood flowing from both of his^-saww feet.

فَخَلَصَ مِنْهُمْ وَ هُمَا يَسِيلَانِ دَماً فَعَمَدَ فَجَاءَ إِلَى حَائِطٍ مِنْ حِيطَانِهِمْ فَاسْتَظَلَّ فِي ظِلِّ نَخْلَةٍ مِنْهُ وَ هُوَ مَكْرُوبٌ مُوجَعٌ تَسِيلُ رِجْلَاهُ دَماً فَإِذَا فِي الْحَائِطِ عُتْبَةُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ وَ شَيْبَةُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ فَلَمَّا رَآهُمَا كَرِهَ مَكَانَهُمَا لِمَا يَعْلَمُ مِنْ عَدَاوَتِهِمَا لِلَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ

He^-saww then went to one of their gardens and sought shade beneath a palm tree in it. He^-saww was distressed and in pain, and blood was flowing from his feet. There, in the garden were Utbah Bin Rabiah and Shaybah Bin Rabiah. When he^-saww saw them, he^-saww disliked being in their presence because he^-saww knew of their hostility toward Allah^-azwj and His^-saww Messenger^-saww.

فَلَمَّا رَأَيَاهُ أَرْسَلَا إِلَيْهِ غُلَاماً لَهُمَا يُدْعَى عَدَّاسٌ مَعَهُ عِنَبٌ وَ هُوَ نَصْرَانِيٌّ مِنْ أَهْلِ نَيْنَوَى فَلَمَّا جَاءَهُ قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مِنْ أَيِّ أَرْضٍ أَنْتَ

When they saw him^-saww, they sent to him^-saww one of their servants, named Addas, carrying some grapes. He^-saww was a Christian from the people of Naynawa. When he came to him^-saww Rasool-Allah^-saww said to him, ‘What land are you from?’

قَالَ مِنْ أَهْلِ نَيْنَوَى

He said, ‘I am from the people of Nineveh’.

قَالَ مِنْ مَدِينَةِ الْعَبْدِ الصَّالِحِ يُونُسَ بْنِ مَتَّى

He said, ‘From the city of the righteous servant Yunus Bin Matta?’

فَقَالَ لَهُ عَدَّاسٌ وَ مَا يُدْرِيكَ مَنْ يُونُسُ بْنُ مَتَّى

Addas said to him, ‘How do you know who Yunus Bin Matta is?’

فَقَالَ ص أَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَخْبَرَنِي خَبَرَ يُونُسَ بْنِ مَتَّى

The Prophet^-saww said, ‘I am the Messenger of Allah^-azwj, and Allah^-azwj, the Most High, has Informed me about Yunus Bin Matta’.

فَلَمَّا أَخْبَرَهُ بِمَا أَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ شَأْنِ يُونُسَ خَرَّ عَدَّاسٌ سَاجِداً لِلَّهِ وَ مُعَظِّماً لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ جَعَلَ يُقَبِّلُ قَدَمَيْهِ وَ هُمَا تَسِيلَانِ الدِّمَاءَ

When he^-saww told him what Allah^-azwj had Revealed to him concerning Yunus^-as, Addas fell down in prostration before Allah^-azwj honouring Rasool-Allah^-saww. He began kissing his^-saww feet while blood was flowing from them.

فَلَمَّا بَصُرَ عُتْبَةُ وَ شَيْبَةُ مَا يَصْنَعُ غُلَامُهُمَا سَكَتَا فَلَمَّا أَتَاهُمَا قَالا مَا شَأْنُكَ سَجَدْتَ لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ قَبَّلْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ وَ لَمْ نَرَكَ فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ بِأَحَدٍ مِنَّا

When Utbah and Shaybah saw what their servant was doing, they remained silent. When he returned to them, they said, ‘What is the matter with you? You prostrated before Muhammad^-saww and kissed his^-saww feet, yet we have never seen you do that to anyone of us!’

قَالَ هَذَا رَجُلٌ صَالِحٌ أَخْبَرَنِي بِشَيْ‏ءٍ عَرَفْتُهُ مِنْ شَأْنِ رَسُولٍ بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَيْنَا يُدْعَى يُونُسَ بْنَ مَتَّى

He said, ‘This is a righteous man. He^-saww has told me something about a Messenger^-as whom Allah^-azwj had Sent to us, named Yunus Bin Matta^-as, which I already knew!’

فَضَحِكَا وَ قَالا لَا يَفْتِنَنَّكَ عَنْ نَصْرَانِيَّتِكَ فَإِنَّهُ رَجُلٌ خَدَّاعٌ

They laughed and said, ‘Do not let him turn you away from your Christianity, for he^-saww is a deceptive man’.

فَرَجَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِلَى مَكَّةَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِنَخْلَةٍ قَامَ فِي جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ يُصَلِّي فَمَرَّ بِهِ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ نَصِيبِينَ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ فَوَجَدُوهُ يُصَلِّي صَلَاةَ الْغَدَاةِ وَ يَتْلُو الْقُرْآنَ فَاسْتَمَعُوا لَهُ

Rasool-Allah^-saww then returned to Makkah. When he^-saww reached Nakhlah, he^-saww stood during the middle of the night and prayed Salat. A group of people from the inhabitants of Nasibeen in Yemen passed by him^-saww. They found him performing the morning prayer and reciting the Quran, so they listened to him^-saww.

وَ قَالَ آخَرُونَ‏ أُمِرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ يُنْذِرَ الْجِنَّ وَ يَدْعُوَهُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَ يَقْرَأَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنَ فَصَرَفَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ نَفَراً مِنَ الْجِنِّ مِنْ نَيْنَوَى فَقَالَ ص إِنِّي أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَى الْجِنِّ اللَّيْلَةَ فَأَيُّكُمْ يَتَّبِعُنِي فَاتَّبَعَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ

Others have said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww was Commanded to warn the Jinn, invite them to Allah^-azwj and recite the Quran to them. Allah^-azwj Directed a group of Jinn from Naynawah toward him^-saww. He^-saww said, ‘I^-saww have been Commanded to recite to the Jinn tonight, so which of you will follow me^-saww?’ Abdullah Bin Masud followed him^-saww.

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَ لَمْ يَحْضُرْ مَعَهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي فَانْطَلَقْنَا حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِأَعْلَى مَكَّةَ وَ دَخَلَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ شِعْباً يُقَالُ لَهُ شِعْبُ الْحَجُونِ وَ خَطَّ لِي خَطّاً ثُمَّ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَجْلِسَ فِيهِ وَ قَالَ لَا تَخْرُجْ مِنْهُ حَتَّى أَعُودَ إِلَيْكَ

Abdullah said, ‘No one accompanied him^-saww except me.’ We set out until we reached the upper part of Makkah, and the Prophet^-saww of Allah^-azwj entered a valley called the Valley of Al Hajun. He^-saww drew a line for me and then instructed me to sit inside it. He^-saww said, ‘Do not leave it until I^-saww return to you!’

ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ حَتَّى قَامَ فَافْتَتَحَ الْقُرْآنَ فَغَشِيَتْهُ أَسْوِدَةٌ كَثِيرَةٌ حَتَّى حَالَتْ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُ حَتَّى لَمْ أَسْمَعْ صَوْتَهُ ثُمَّ انْطَلَقُوا وَ طَفِقُوا يَتَقَطَّعُونَ مِثْلَ قِطَعِ السَّحَابِ ذَاهِبِينَ حَتَّى بَقِيَ مِنْهُمْ رَهْطٌ وَ فَرَغَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَعَ الْفَجْرِ فَانْطَلَقَ فَبَرَزَ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَلْ رَأَيْتَ شَيْئاً

Then he^-saww went on until he^-saww stood and began reciting the Quran. A great number of dark figures surrounded him until they came between me and him, so that I could no longer hear his^-saww voice. Then they departed and began breaking away in groups, going off like pieces of clouds, until only a small group of them remained. Rasool-Allah^-saww finished with them at dawn, then he^-saww came out and said, ‘Did you see anything?’

فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ رَأَيْتُ رِجَالًا سُوداً مُسْتَثْفِرِي‏ ثِيَابٍ بِيضٍ

I said, ‘Yes. I saw black men with white garments wrapped around themselves!’

قَالَ أُولَئِكَ جِنُّ نَصِيبِينَ

He^-saww said, ‘Those are the Jinn of Nasibeen’.

وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: لَمَّا قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص الرَّحْمَنَ‏ عَلَى النَّاسِ سَكَتُوا فَلَمْ يَقُولُوا شَيْئاً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص الْجِنُّ كَانُوا أَحْسَنَ جَوَاباً مِنْكُمْ

And it is reported by Muhammad Bin Al Munkadir, from Jabir Bin Abdullah^-ar. He^-ar said, ‘When Rasool-Allah^-saww recited (Surah) Al Rahman unto the people they were silent. They did not say anything. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘The Jinn were of better response that you all!’

لَمَّا قَرَأْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ‏ فَبِأَيِّ آلاءِ رَبِّكُما تُكَذِّبانِ‏ قَالُوا لَا وَ لَا بِشَيْ‏ءٍ مِنْ آلَائِكَ رَبَّنَا نُكَذِّبُ

When he^-saww recited unto them: So, which of the Favours of your Lord with you two belie? [55:16], they said, ‘And no, we do not belie anything from Your^-azwj Favours, our Lord^-azwj!’’

وَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص‏ إِنَّ شَيْطَاناً تَفَلَّتَ الْبَارِحَةَ لِيَقْطَعَ عَلَيَّ صَلَاتِي فَأَمْكَنَنِي اللَّهُ مِنْهُ فَأَخَذْتُهُ فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَرْبِطَهُ إِلَى سَارِيَةٍ مِنْ سَوَارِي الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى‏ تَنْظُرُوا إِلَيْهِ كُلُّكُمْ فَذَكَرْتُ دَعْوَةَ أَخِي سُلَيْمَانَ ع‏ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَ هَبْ لِي‏ مُلْكاً الْآيَةَ فَرَدَّهُ اللَّهُ خَاسِئاً

And the Prophet^-saww said: ‘A devil escaped last night in order to terminate my^-saww Salat upon me^-saww, but Allah^-azwj Enabled me^-saww from him. I^-saww wanted to tie him to a pillar from the pillars of the Masjid until all of you can look at him. I^-saww remembered a supplication of my^-saww brother Suleyman^-as: He said: ‘Lord! Forgive me and Grant me a kingdom [38:35] – the Verse. Allah^-azwj Repelled him in disgrace’.

1- ل، الخصال أُبَيٌّ عَنْ سَعْدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ رَاشِدٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ غَزْوَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَقُولُ‏ إِنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الْجِنِّ كَانَ يُقَالُ لَهَا عَفْرَاءُ كَانَتْ تَنْتَابُ‏ النَّبِيَّ ص فَتَسْمَعُ مِنْ كَلَامِهِ فَتَأْتِي صَالِحِي الْجِنِّ فَيُسْلِمُونَ عَلَى يَدَيْهَا وَ إِنَّهَا فَقَدَهَا النَّبِيُّ ص فَسَأَلَ عَنْهَا جَبْرَئِيلَ فَقَالَ إِنَّهَا زَارَتْ أُخْتاً لَهَا تُحِبُّهَا فِي اللَّهِ

‘Al Khisaal’ – From Sa’ad, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Hameed, from Muhammad Bin Rashid, from Umar Bin Sahl, from Suhayl Bin Gazwan who said,

‘I heard Abu Abdullah^-asws saying: ‘A woman from the Hibb called Afra’a used to come to the Prophet^-saww. She would listen to his^-saww speech and go to the righteous Jinn and they became Muslims at her hands. The Prophet^-saww missed her and he^-saww asked Jibraeel^-as about her. He^-as said: ‘She is visiting a sister of her, loving her for the Sake of Allah^-azwj’.

فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص طُوبَى لِلْمُتَحَابِّينَ فِي اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى خَلَقَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ عَمُوداً مِنْ يَاقُوتَةٍ حَمْرَاءَ عَلَيْهِ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ قَصْرٍ فِي كُلِّ قَصْرٍ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ غُرْفَةٍ خَلَقَهَا اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لِلْمُتَحَابِّينَ وَ الْمُتَزَاوِرِينَ فِي اللَّهِ

The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Beatitude be to the ones loving for the Sake of Allah^-azwj! Allah^-azwj Blessed and Exalted Created a pillar of red ruby in Paradise, there being seventy thousand castled upon it, in every castle being seventy thousand rooms. Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic Created it for the ones loving each other and visiting each other for the Sake of Allah^-azwj’.

ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عَفْرَاءُ أَيَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ رَأَيْتِ قَالَتْ رَأَيْتُ عَجَائِبَ كَثِيرَةً قَالَ فَأَعْجَبُ مَا رَأَيْتِ قَالَتْ رَأَيْتُ إِبْلِيسَ فِي الْبَحْرِ الْأَخْضَرِ عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ مَادّاً يَدَيْهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ إِلَهِي إِذَا بَرَرْتَ قَسَمَكَ وَ أَدْخَلْتَنِي نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ فَأَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ وَ فَاطِمَةَ وَ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ إِلَّا خَلَّصْتَنِي مِنْهَا وَ حَشَرْتَنِي مَعَهُمْ

Then he^-saww said: ‘O Afra’a! Which thing did you see?’ She said, ‘I saw a lot of wonders’. He^-saww said: ‘So what is the most wondrous of what you saw?’ She said, ‘I saw Iblees^-la in the green sea upon a white rock extending his^-la hands towards the sky and he^-la was saying, ‘My^-la God^-azwj! When Your^-azwj Division is justified and You^-azwj Enter me^-la into the Fire of Hell, I^-la ask You^-azwj by the right of Muhammad^-saww and Ali^-asws and Fatima^-asws and Al-Hassan^-asws and Al-Husayn^-asws to finish me^-la off from it, and gather me^-la to be with them^-asws’.

فَقُلْتُ يَا حَارِثُ مَا هَذِهِ الْأَسْمَاءُ الَّتِي تَدْعُو بِهَا قَالَ لِي رَأَيْتُهَا عَلَى سَاقِ الْعَرْشِ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ اللَّهُ آدَمَ بِسَبْعَةِ آلَافِ سَنَةٍ فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُمْ أَكْرَمَ الْخَلْقِ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَأَنَا أَسْأَلُهُ بِحَقِّهِمْ ‏

I said, ‘O Haris^-la! What are these names which you^-la are supplicating with?’ He^-la said to me: ‘I^-la saw these (inscribed) upon the Base of the Throne from before Allah^-azwj Created Adam^-as by seven thousand years, so I^-la knew that they^-asws are the most prestigious of the creatures unto Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic, so I^-la asked Him^-azwj by their^-asws rights’.

فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ أَهْلُ الْأَرْضِ بِهَذِهِ الْأَسْمَاءِ لَأَجَابَهُمْ

The Prophet^-saww said: ‘By Allah^-azwj! If the people of the earth were to vow by these names they would be Answered![113]

2- فس، تفسير القمي قَالَ: الْجِنُّ مِنْ وُلْدِ الْجَانِّ مِنْهُمْ مُؤْمِنُونَ وَ كَافِرُونَ وَ يَهُودُ وَ نَصَارَى وَ تَخْتَلِفُ أَدْيَانُهُمْ وَ الشَّيَاطِينُ مِنْ وُلْدِ إِبْلِيسَ وَ لَيْسَ فِيهِمْ مُؤْمِنٌ‏ إِلَّا وَاحِدٌ اسْمُهُ هَامُ بْنُ هِيمِ بْنِ لَاقِيسَ بْنِ إِبْلِيسَ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَرَآهُ جَسِيماً عَظِيماً وَ أَمْراً مَهُولًا فَقَالَ لَهُ مَنْ أَنْتَ قَالَ أَنَا هَامُ بْنُ هِيمِ بْنِ لَاقِيسَ بْنِ إِبْلِيسَ كُنْتُ يَوْمَ قَتَلَ قَابِيلُ هَابِيلَ‏ غُلَاماً ابْنَ أَعْوَامٍ أَنْهَى عَنِ الِاعْتِصَامِ وَ آمُرُ بِإِفْسَادِ الطَّعَامِ

‘Tafseer Al-Qummi’ – He (Ali Bin Ibrahim) said, ‘The Jinn are from the children of the Jaan; from them are the Momins and the Kafirs, and Jews and Christians and of different religions; and the Satans^-la are form the children of Iblees^-la, and there isn’t any Momin among them except one. His name is Ham Ibn Haym Bin Al-Qays Bin Iblees^-la. He came to Rasool-Allah^-saww and he^-saww saw him of a large body, a terrifying person. He^-saww said to him: ‘Who are you?’ He said, ‘I am Ham Bin Haym Bin Al-Qays Bin Iblees^-la. When it was the day Qabeel^-la killed Habeel^-as, I was a boy of age of ending from the clinging and in charge of the spoilage of food’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص بِئْسَ لَعَمْرِي الشَّابُّ الْمُؤَمَّلُ وَ الْكَهْلُ الْمُؤَمَّرُ فَقَالَ دَعْ عَنْكَ هَذَا يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقَدْ جَرَتْ تَوْبَتِي عَلَى يَدِ نُوحٍ ع وَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُ مَعَهُ فِي السَّفِينَةِ فَعَاتَبْتُهُ عَلَى‏ دُعَائِهِ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ وَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُ مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ع حَيْثُ أُلْقِيَ فِي النَّارِ فَجَعَلَهَا اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ بَرْداً وَ سَلَاماً

Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘Evil is the age of the youth of hopes, and the empowered old age’. He said, ‘(Please) Leave this (for now), O Muhammad^-saww! My repentance has flowed upon the hand of Noah^-as, and I was with him^-as in the ship and exhorted upon his^-as inviting his^-as people, and I was with Ibrahim^-as when he^-as was thrown in the fire and Allah^-azwj Made it to be cold and safe unto him^-as.

وَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُ مَعَ مُوسَى ع حِينَ غَرِقَ اللَّهُ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ نَجَّى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُ مَعَ هُودٍ ع حِينَ دَعَا عَلَى قَوْمِهِ فَعَاتَبْتُهُ عَلَى دُعَائِهِ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ وَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُ مَعَ صَالِحٍ ع فَعَاتَبْتُهُ عَلَى دُعَائِهِ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ وَ لَقَدْ قَرَأْتُ الْكُتُبَ فَكُلُّهَا تُبَشِّرُنِي بِكَ وَ الْأَنْبِيَاءُ يُقْرِءُونَكَ السَّلَامَ وَ يَقُولُونَ أَنْتَ أَفْضَلُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ أَكْرَمُهُمْ فَعَلِّمْنِي مِمَّا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ شَيْئاً

And I was with Musa^-as when Allah^-azwj Drowned Pharaoh^-la and Rescued the children of Israel, and I was with Hud^-as when he^-as called his^-as people and exhorted upon his^-as calling his^-as people, and I was with Salih^-as and exhorted upon his^-as calling his^-as people; and I^-as had recited the Books and all of them gave glad tiding of you^-saww, and the Prophets^-as convey the greetings to you^-saww and said: ‘You^-saww are the most superior of the Prophets^-as and their^-as most honourable, so teach me something from what Allah^-azwj has Revealed unto you^-saww’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع عَلِّمْهُ فَقَالَ هَامٌ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنَّا لَا نُطِيعُ إِلَّا نَبِيّاً أَوْ وَصِيَّ نَبِيٍّ فَمَنْ هَذَا قَالَ هَذَا أَخِي وَ وَصِيِّي وَ وَزِيرِي وَ وَارِثِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ نَجِدُ اسْمَهُ فِي الْكُتُبِ إِلْيَا فَعَلَّمَهُ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَلَمَّا كَانَتْ لَيْلَةُ الْهَرِيرِ بِصِفِّينَ جَاءَ إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع‏

Rasool-Allah^-saww said to Amir Al-Momineen^-asws: ‘Teach him’. Ham said, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! We do not follow except a Prophet^-as or a successor^-as of a Prophet^-as, so who is this one?’ He^-saww said: ‘This is my^-saww successor^-asws and my^-saww Vizier and my^-saww inheritor Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws’. He said, ‘Yes, we do find his^-asws name in the Books as ‘Elia’’. So, Amir Al-Momineen^-asws taught him. When it was the night of ‘Al Hareer’ at (battle of) Siffeen, he came (in the service of) Amir Al-Momineen^-asws’’ (again).[114]

3- عم، إعلام الورى جَاءَ فِي الْآثَارِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: لَمَّا خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِلَى بَنِي الْمُصْطَلِقِ وَ نَزَلَ بِقُرْبِ وَادٍ وَعْرٍ فَلَمَّا كَانَ آخِرُ اللَّيْلِ هَبَطَ عَلَيْهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ يُخْبِرُهُ عَنْ طَائِفَةٍ مِنْ كُفَّارِ الْجِنِّ قَدِ اسْتَبْطَنُوا الْوَادِيَ يُرِيدُونَ كَيْدَهُ وَ إِيقَاعَ الشَّرِّ بِأَصْحَابِهِ

It has come in the Ahadeeth from Ibn Abbas having said: ‘When the Prophet^-saww went out to the clan of Mustalaq and encamped near a bumpy valley, Jibraeel^-as descended unto him^-saww at the end of the night with news about a group of the Kafir Jinn who had entered the middle of the valley intending to plot against him^-saww and intending the evil to his^-saww companions.

فَدَعَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ إِلَى هَذَا الْوَادِي فَسَيَعْرِضُ لَكَ مِنْ أَعْدَاءِ اللَّهِ الْجِنُّ مَنْ‏ يُرِيدُكَ فَادْفَعْهُ بِالْقُوَّةِ الَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهَا وَ تَحَصَّنْ مِنْهُ‏ بِأَسْمَاءِ اللَّهِ الَّتِي خَصَّكَ بِعِلْمِهَا وَ أَنْفَذَ مَعَهُ مِائَةَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَخْلَاطِ النَّاسِ وَ قَالَ لَهُمْ كُونُوا مَعَهُ وَ امْتَثِلُوا أَمْرَهُ

He^-saww called Amir Al-Momineen^-asws and said: ‘Go to this valley and the Jinn from the enemies of Allah^-azwj would present to you, one who intend (to harm) you^-asws, so repel him with the strength which Allah^-azwj has Given you^-asws and fortify from him with the Names of Allah^-azwj , Allah^-azwj has Specialised you^-asws of its knowledge’, and he^-saww sent with him^-asws a hundred men from the mixture of the people, and said to them: ‘Be with him^-asws and obey his^-asws orders’.

فَتَوَجَّهَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع إِلَى الْوَادِي فَلَمَّا قَارَبَ‏ شَفِيرَهُ أَمَرَ الْمِائَةَ الَّذِينَ صَحِبُوهُ أَنْ يَقِفُوا بِقُرْبِ الشَّفِيرِ وَ لَا يُحْدِثُوا شَيْئاً حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ لَهُمْ ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ فَوَقَفَ عَلَى شَفِيرِ الْوَادِي وَ تَعَوَّذَ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِ وَ سَمَّاهُ بِأَحْسَنِ أَسْمَائِهِ وَ أَوْمَأَ إِلَى الْقَوْمِ الَّذِينَ تَبِعُوهُ أَنْ يَقْرُبُوا مِنْهُ فَقَرُبُوا وَ كَانَ بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَهُمْ فُرْجَةٌ مَسَافَتُها غَلْوَةٌ

Amir Al-Momineen^-asws headed towards the valley. When he^-asws was near its edge, ordered the one hundred, those who had accompanied him^-asws to pause near to the edge and not to do anything until he^-asws permits them. Then he^-asws proceeded and paused on the edge of the valley and sought Refuge with Allah^-azwj from His^-azwj enemies, and Named Him^-azwj with His^-azwj excellent Names, and gestured towards the people, those who had followed him^-asws to come near him^-asws. They came closer and there was a hole between him^-asws and them, its distance was of an arrow’s throw.

ثُمَّ رَامَ الْهُبُوطَ إِلَى الْوَادِي فَاعْتَرَضَتْ رِيحٌ عَاصِفٌ كَادَ الْقَوْمُ أَنْ يَقَعُوا عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ لِشِدَّتِهَا وَ لَمْ تَثْبُتْ أَقْدَامُهُمْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنْ هَوْلِ مَا لَحِقَهُمْ فَصَاحَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع أَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ وَصِيُّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ اثْبُتُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ وَ ظَهَرَ لِلْقَوْمِ أَشْخَاصٌ كَالزُّطِّ تُخُيِّلَ فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ شُعَلُ النَّارِ قَدِ اطْمَأَنُّوا بِجَنَبَاتِ الْوَادِي‏

Then he^-asws desired the descent into the valley, but a stormy wind presented, the people almost fell upon their faces due to its intensity and their feet were not steadfast upon the ground from the horror of what faced them. Amir Al-Momineen^-asws shouted: ‘I am Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws, successor^-asws of Rasool-Allah^-saww and his^-saww cousin^-asws, Be affirmed if you so desire to!’ And there appeared to the people, persons like the (tall) palm trees, imagining flames of fire in their hands, in the sides of the valley.

فَتَوَغَّلَ‏ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع بَطْنَ الْوَادِي وَ هُوَ يَتْلُو الْقُرْآنَ وَ يُومِئُ بِسَيْفِهِ يَمِيناً وَ شِمَالًا فَمَا لَبِثَتِ الْأَشْخَاصُ حَتَّى صَارَتْ كَالدُّخَانِ الْأَسْوَدِ وَ كَبَّرَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع ثُمَّ صَعِدَ مِنْ حَيْثُ هَبَطَ فَقَامَ مَعَ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِينَ تَبِعُوهُ حَتَّى أَسْفَرَ الْمَوْضِعُ عَمَّا اعْتَرَاهُ

Amir Al-Momineen^-asws went distant into the middle of the valley and he^-asws was reciting the Quran, and gesturing with his^-asws sword right and left. The persons did not remain until they became like puffs of black smoke, and Amir Al-Momineen^-asws exclaimed Takbeer, then ascended from where he had descended. Then, he^-asws stood with the people, those who had followed him^-asws until they were in the place from what they had seen him^-asws.

فَقَالَ لَهُ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص مَا لَقِيتَ يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ فَقَدْ كِدْنَا نَهْلِكُ خَوْفاً وَ إِشْفَاقاً عَلَيْكَ فَقَالَ ع لَمَّا تَرَاءَى لِيَ الْعَدُوُّ جَهَرْتُ فِيهِمْ بِأَسْمَاءِ اللَّهِ فَتَضَاءَلُوا وَ عَلِمْتُ مَا حَلَّ بِهِمْ مِنَ الْجَزَعِ فَتَوَغَّلْتُ الْوَادِيَ غَيْرَ خَائِفٍ مِنْهُمْ وَ لَوْ بَقُوا عَلَى هَيْئَاتِهِمْ لَأَتَيْتُ عَلَى آخِرِهِمْ وَ كَفَى اللَّهُ كَيْدَهُمْ وَ كَفَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ شَرَّهُمْ وَ سَيَسْبِقُنِي بَقِيَّتُهُمْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَيُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ

The companions of Rasool-Allah^-saww said to him^-asws, ‘What we faced, O Abu Al-Hassan^-asws, we were almost destroyed out of fear and fear upon you^-asws?’ He^-asws said: ‘When you dreaded the enemy for me^-asws, I^-asws went among them with the Names of Allah^-azwj, they were belittled and I^-asws knew what panicked had been released with them, and I^-asws went distant to the valley without fear from them, and had I^-asws remained upon their lifetime I^-asws would have gone to the last of them, and Allah^-azwj Sufficed me^-asws of their plots and the Muslims suffice of their evil, and he would follow me^-asws to the Prophet^-saww and believe in him^-saww’.

وَ انْصَرَفَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع بِمَنْ مَعَهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَأَخْبَرَهُ الْخَبَرَ فَسُرِّيَ عَنْهُ وَ دَعَا لَهُ بِخَيْرٍ وَ قَالَ لَهُ قَدْ سَبَقَكَ يَا عَلِيُّ إِلَيَّ مَنْ أَخَافَهُ اللَّهُ بِكَ فَأَسْلَمَ وَ قَبِلْتُ إِسْلَامَهُ‏

And Amir Al-Momineen^-asws left with the ones with him^-asws to Rasool-Allah^-saww and informed him^-saww of the news. He^-saww was cheered from it and supplicated for him with goodness and said to him^-asws: ‘He has preceded you^-asws, O Ali^-asws, to me^-saww from the ones Allah^-azwj Frightened with you^-asws’. He became a Muslims and he^-saww accepted his Islam’’.[115]

‘Uyoon Al Mojizaat’ – From the book ‘Al Anwaar’, from Ahmad Bin Abduwayh, from Suleyman Bin Ali Al Damashqy, from Abu Hashim al Zabaly, from Zazan,

‘From Salman^-ra who said, ‘One day the Prophet^-saww was seated at Al-Abtah and in his^-saww presence was a group of his^-saww companions, and he^-saww was facing towards us with the Hadeeth when we looked at a tornado which had raised and spreading the dust, and it did not cease coming closer and raising the dust until it paused parallel to the Prophet^-saww.

ثُمَّ بَرَزَ مِنْهَا شَخْصٌ كَانَ فِيهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي وَافِدُ قَوْمِي وَ قَدِ اسْتَجَرْنَا بِكَ فَأْجُرْنَا وَ ابْعَثْ مَعِي مِنْ قِبَلِكَ مَنْ يُشْرِفُ عَلَى قَوْمِنَا فَإِنَّ بَعْضَهُمْ قَدْ بَغَى عَلَيْنَا لِيَحْكُمَ بَيْنَنَا وَ بَيْنَهُمْ بِحُكْمِ اللَّهِ وَ كِتَابِهِ وَ خُذْ عَلَيَّ الْعُهُودَ وَ الْمَوَاثِيقَ الْمُؤَكَّدَةَ أَنْ أَرُدَّهُ إِلَيْكَ فِي غَدَاةِ غَدٍ سَالِماً إِلَّا أَنْ تَحْدُثَ عَلَيَّ حَادِثَةٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ

Then a person who was in it, came out from it, then said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! I am a delegate of my people and we are seeking your^-saww help, so help us, and send from you^-saww with me one who can overlook upon our people, for some of them have rebelled upon us, for him to judge between us and them with the Judgment of Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Book and take a pact upon me and the solemn oath that I shall return to you^-saww in the morning tomorrow safely until an event occurs upon me from the Presence of Allah^-azwj’.

فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص مَنْ أَنْتَ وَ مَنْ قَوْمُكَ قَالَ أَنَا عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةُ] بْنُ شِمْرَاخٍ أَحَدُ بَنِي نَجَاحٍ وَ أَنَا وَ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنْ أَهْلِي كُنَّا نَسْتَرِقُ السَّمْعَ فَلَمَّا مُنِعْنَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ آمَنَّا وَ لَمَّا بَعَثَكَ اللَّهُ نَبِيّاً آمَنَّا بِكَ عَلَى مَا عَلِمْتَهُ وَ قَدْ صَدَّقْنَاكَ وَ قَدْ خَالَفَنَا بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ وَ أَقَامُوا عَلَى مَا كَانُوا عَلَيْهِ فَوَقَعَ بَيْنَنَا وَ بَيْنَهُمُ الْخِلَافُ وَ هُمْ أَكْثَرُ مِنَّا عَدَداً وَ قُوَّةً وَ قَدْ غَلَبُوا عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَ الْمَرَاعِي وَ أَضَرُّوا بِنَا وَ بِدَوَابِّنَا فَابْعَثْ مَعِي مَنْ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَنَا بِالْحَقِّ

The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Who are you? And who are your people?’ He said, ‘Atrafah Bin Shamrakh, one of the clan of Najah, and I and a group of my people used to steal the hearing. When we were prevented from that, we believed and when Allah^-azwj Sent a Prophet^-saww, we believed in you^-saww upon what we knew and we have ratified you^-saww, and some of our people have opposed us and are standing upon what they used to be upon. Thus, opposition occurred between us and them and they are more than us in number and strength, and they have overcome upon the water and the pastures and they have harmed up and initiated us (the enmity), so send me with someone who will judge between us with the Truth’.

فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص فَاكْشِفْ لَنَا عَنْ وَجْهِكَ حَتَّى نَرَاكَ عَلَى هَيْئَتِكَ الَّتِي أَنْتَ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ فَكَشَفَ لَنَا عَنْ صُورَتِهِ فَنَظَرْنَا فَإِذَا شَخْصٌ عَلَيْهِ شَعْرٌ كَثِيرٌ وَ إِذَا رَأْسُهُ طَوِيلٌ طَوِيلُ الْعَيْنَيْنِ عَيْنَاهُ فِي طُولِ رَأْسِهِ صَغِيرُ الْحَدَقَتَيْنِ وَ لَهُ أَسْنَانُ السِّبَاعِ ثُمَّ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص أَخَذَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَهْدَ وَ الْمِيثَاقَ عَلَى أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ فِي غَدٍ مَنْ يَبْعَثُ بِهِ مَعَهُ ‏

The Prophet^-saww said to him: ‘Uncover from your face for us until we see you upon your form which you are upon’. He uncovered for us from his face and we looked and there was a person upon whom was a lot of hair, and his head was long, of long eyes. His eyes in the length of his head were small cheeks, and for him were teeth of the predators. Then the Prophet^-saww took the pact upon him and the covenant upon that he will return to him^-saww in the morning, with the one he^-saww would be sending with him.

فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ سِرْ مَعَ أَخِينَا عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةَ] وَ انْظُرْ إِلَى مَا هُمْ عَلَيْهِ وَ احْكُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ أَيْنَ هُمْ قَالَ هُمْ تَحْتَ الْأَرْضِ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَ كَيْفَ أُطِيقُ النُّزُولَ تَحْتَ الْأَرْضِ وَ كَيْفَ أَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْ وَ لَا أُحْسِنُ كَلَامَهُمْ

When he^-saww was free from that, he turned towards Abu Bakr and said, ‘Travel with our brother Atrafa and look at what they are upon and judge between them with the Truth’. He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww, and where are they?’ He^-saww said: ‘They are beneath the ground’. Abu Bakr said, ‘And how can I endure the descend beneath the ground? And how can I judge between them and I am not good in their speech (language)?’

ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ قَوْلِهِ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ فَأَجَابَ بِمِثْلِ جَوَابِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ وَ قَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ قَوْلِهِ لَهُمَا فَأَجَابَهُ كَجَوَابِهِمَا

Then he^-saww turned towards Umar Bin Al-Khattab and said to him similar to his^-saww words to Abu Bakr, and he answered similar to the answer of Abu Bakr. Then he^-saww turned towards Usman and said to him similar to his^-saww words to them both, and he answered him^-saww like their answer.

ثُمَّ اسْتَدْعَى بِعَلِيٍّ ع وَ قَالَ لَهُ يَا عَلِيُّ سِرْ مَعَ أَخِينَا عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةَ] وَ تُشْرِفُ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ وَ تَنْظُرُ إِلَى مَا هُمْ عَلَيْهِ وَ تَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ فَقَامَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع مَعَ عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةَ] وَ قَدْ تَقَلَّدَ سَيْفَهُ

Then he^-saww called for Ali^-asws and said to him^-asws: ‘O Ali^-asws! Travel with our brother Atrafad and overlook upon his people and look at what they are upon, and judge between them with the Truth’. Amir Al-Momineen^-asws stood up with Atrafah, and collared his^-asws sword.

قَالَ سَلْمَانُ فَتَبِعْتُهُمَا إِلَى أَنْ صَارَ إِلَى الْوَادِي فَلَمَّا تَوَسَّطَاهُ نَظَرَ إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ قَالَ قَدْ شَكَرَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى سَعْيَكَ يَا بَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَارْجِعْ فَوَقَفْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمَا فَانْشَقَّتِ الْأَرْضُ وَ دَخَلَا فِيهَا وَ رَجَعْتُ‏ وَ تَدَاخَلَنِي مِنَ الْحَسْرَةِ مَا اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ إِشْفَاقاً عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

Salman^-ra said, ‘I^-ra followed them up to the valley. When they were in the middle of it, Amir Al-Momineen^-asws looked at me and said: ‘I^-asws thank Allah^-azwj the Exalted for your^-ra striving, O Abu Abdullah, so return!’ I^-ra paused looking at them and the ground split up and they entered into it, and I returned and there entered into me the regret what Allah^-azwj is more Knowing with it, all that in fear upon Amir Al-Momineen^-asws.

وَ أَصْبَحَ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ الْغَدَاةَ وَ جَاءَ وَ جَلَسَ عَلَى الصَّفَا وَ حَفَّ بِهِ أَصْحَابُهُ وَ تَأَخَّرَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ ارْتَفَعَ النَّهَارُ وَ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسُ الْكَلَامَ إِلَى أَنْ زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَ قَالُوا إِنَّ الْجِنِّيَّ احْتَالَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ص وَ قَدْ أَرَاحَنَا اللَّهُ مِنْ أَبِي تُرَابٍ وَ ذَهَبَ عَنَّا افْتِخَارُهُ بِابْنِ عَمِّهِ عَلَيْنَا

The Prophet^-saww woke up in the morning and prayed the morning Salat with the people, and came and sat upon Al-Safa and his^-saww companions surrounded him^-saww, and Amir Al-Momineen^-asws was delayed and the day rose, and the people frequented the speech until the sun declined, and they said, ‘The Jinn have tricked the Prophet^-saww and Allah^-azwj has Given us rest from Abu Turab^-asws, and Removed from us his^-saww priding with his^-saww cousin^-asws upon us’.

وَ أَكْثَرُوا الْكَلَامَ إِلَى أَنْ صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ص صَلَاةَ الْأُولَى وَ عَادَ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ وَ جَلَسَ عَلَى الصَّفَا وَ مَا زَالَ يُحَدِّثُ أَصْحَابُهُ‏ إِلَى أَنْ وَجَبَتْ صَلَاةُ الْعَصْرِ وَ أَكْثَرَ الْقَوْمُ الْكَلَامَ وَ أَظْهَرُوا الْيَأْسَ مِنْ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَصَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ص صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ وَ جَاءَ وَ جَلَسَ عَلَى الصَّفَا وَ أَظْهَرَ الْفِكْرَ فِي أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ ظَهَرَتْ شَمَاتَةُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ بِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ كَادَتِ الشَّمْسُ تَغْرُبُ

And they frequented the speech until the Prophet^-saww prayed the first Salat (Zohr) and returned to his^-saww place and sat upon Al-Safa, and did not cease narrating to his^-saww companions until Salat Al-Asr was Obligated; and the people frequented the speech and manifested the despair from Amir Al-Momineen^-asws. The Prophet^-saww prayed Salat Al-Asr, and he^-saww came and sat upon Al-Safa, and manifesting the thinking regarding Amir Al-Momineen^-asws and the hypocrites manifested the gloating with Amir Al-Momineen^-asws, and the sun almost set.

فَتَيَقَّنَ الْقَوْمُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ هَلَكَ وَ إِذَا قَدِ انْشَقَّ الصَّفَا وَ طَلَعَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع مِنْهُ وَ سَيْفُهُ يَقْطُرُ دَماً وَ مَعَهُ عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةَ] فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ قَبَّلَ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ وَ جَبِينَيْهِ وَ قَالَ لَهُ مَا الَّذِي حَبَسَكَ عَنِّي إِلَى هَذَا الْوَقْتِ

The people were convinced that he^-asws had perished, and Al-Safa split asunder and Amir Al-Momineen^-asws emerged from it, and his^-asws sword was dripping blood, and with him^-asws was Atrafah. The Prophet^-saww stood to him^-asws and kissed between his^-asws eyes and his^-asws forehead and said to him^-asws: ‘What is that which withheld you^-asws from me^-saww until this time?’

فَقَالَ ع صِرْتُ إِلَى جِنٍّ كَثِيرٍ قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَى عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةَ] وَ قَوْمِهِ مِنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ فَدَعَوْتُهُمْ إِلَى ثَلَاثِ خِصَالٍ فَأَبَوْا عَلَيَّ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنِّي دَعَوْتُهُمْ إِلَى الْإِيمَانِ بِاللَّهِ تَعَالَى وَ الْإِقْرَارِ بِنُبُوَّتِكَ وَ رِسَالَتِكَ فَأَبَوْا فَدَعَوْتُهُمْ إِلَى أَدَاءِ الْجِزْيَةِ فَأَبَوْا فَسَأَلْتُهُمْ أَنْ يُصَالِحُوا عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةَ] وَ قَوْمَهُ فَيَكُونَ بَعْضُ الْمَرْعَى لعطرفة [لِعُرْفُطَةَ] وَ قَوْمِهِ وَ كَذَلِكَ الْمَاءُ فَأَبَوْا ذَلِكَ كُلَّهُ

He^-asws said: ‘I^-asws went to a lot of Jinn from the hypocrites who had rebelled against Atrafah and his people, and I^-asws invited them to three characteristics, but they refused unto me^-asws, and that is that I^-asws invited them to the Eman with Allah^-azwj the Exalted and the acknowledgment with your^-saww Prophet-hood and your^-saww Messenger-ship, but they refused. Then I^-asws called them to the payment of the tax, and they refused. I^-asws asked them to reconcile with Atrafah and his people so that part of the pastures would happen to be for Atrafah and his people, and the water similar to that, but they refused all of that.

فَوَضَعْتُ سَيْفِي فِيهِمْ وَ قَتَلْتُ‏ مِنْهُمْ ثَمَانِينَ‏ أَلْفاً فَلَمَّا نَظَرُوا إِلَى مَا حَلَّ بِهِمْ طَلَبُوا الْأَمَانَ وَ الصُّلْحَ ثُمَّ آمَنُوا وَ زَالَ الْخِلَافُ بَيْنَهُمْ‏ وَ مَا زِلْتُ مَعَهُمْ إِلَى السَّاعَةِ فَقَالَ عطرفة [عُرْفُطَةُ] يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ جَزَاكَ اللَّهُ وَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَنَّا خَيْراً

I^-asws placed my^-asws sword among them and killed eighty thousand from them. (When) they looked at what had befallen with them, they sought the safety and the reconciliation, then they believed, and the difference between them melted away, and I^-asws did not cease to be with them until now’. Atrafah said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! May Allah^-azwj Recompense you and Amir Al-Momineen^-asws, goodly on our behalf’’.[116]

Abdullah Bin Al Salt, from Abu Hadiya, from Anas Bin Malik (a well-known fabricator),

‘One day Rasool-Allah^-saww was seated at the door of the house and with him^-saww was Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws when an old man came up and greeted unto Rasool-Allah^-saww, then left. Rasool-Allah^-saww said to Ali^-asws: ‘Do you^-asws recognise the old man?’ Ali^-asws said: ‘I^-asws do not recognise him’. He^-saww said: ‘This is Iblees^-la’.

فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ ع لَوْ عَلِمْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَضَرَبْتُهُ ضَرْبَةً بِالسَّيْفِ فَخَلَّصْتُ أُمَّتَكَ مِنْهُ قَالَ فَانْصَرَفَ إِبْلِيسُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ص

Ali^-asws said: ‘If I^-asws had known, O Rasool-Allah^-saww! I^-asws would have struck him a strike with my^-asws sword and finished off your^-saww community from him^-la’.

فَقَالَ لَهُ ظَلَمْتَنِي يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ‏ وَ شارِكْهُمْ فِي الْأَمْوالِ وَ الْأَوْلادِ فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا شَرِكْتُ أَحَداً أَحَبَّكَ فِي أُمِّهِ‏

He (the narrator) said, ‘Iblees^-la came to Ali^-asws and said to him^-asws, ‘You^-asws are being unjust to me^-la, O Abu Al-Hassan^-asws! Have you^-asws not heard Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic Saying: and participate in their wealth and their children and promise them!” [17:64]. By Allah^-azwj!

‘Ilal Al Sharaie’ – Al-Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Saeed Al Hashimy narrated to us, from Furat Bin Ibrahim Ibn Furat Al Kufy, from Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Moamar, from Abdullah Ahmad Ibn Ali Bin Muhammad Al Ramly, from Ahmad Bin Musa, from Yaqoub Bin Is’haq Al Mrouzy, from Amro Bin Mansour, from Ismail Bin Aban, from Yahya Bin Abu Kaseer, from his father, from Abu Haroun Al abady,

(It has been narrated) from Jabir Bin Abdullah Al-Ansary who said, ‘I was at Mina with Rasool-Allah^-saww when we saw a man performing Sajdahs and Rukus, and beseeching (in Salat). We said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! How good his Salat is’. He^-saww said: ‘He is the one who got your father (Adam^-as) exited from Paradise’.

فَمَضَى إِلَيْهِ عَلِيٌّ ع غَيْرَ مُكْتَرِثٍ‏ فَهَزَّهُ هَزَّةً أَدْخَلَ أَضْلَاعَهُ الْيُمْنَى فِي الْيُسْرَى وَ الْيُسْرَى فِي الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ قَالَ لَأَقْتُلَنَّكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَقَالَ لَنْ تَقْدِرَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مَعْلُومٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَبِّي مَا لَكَ تُرِيدُ قَتْلِي فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا أَبْغَضَكَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا سَبَقَتْ نُطْفَتِي إِلَى رَحِمِ أُمِّهِ قَبْلَ نُطْفَةِ أَبِيهِ وَ لَقَدْ شَارَكْتُ مُبْغِضِيكَ فِي الْأَمْوَالِ وَ الْأَوْلَادِ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي مُحْكَمِ كِتَابِهِ‏ وَ شارِكْهُمْ فِي الْأَمْوالِ وَ الْأَوْلادِ الْخَبَرَ

Ali^-asws went over to him without paying any attention to it, so he^-asws shook him with such a shaking that his right ribs entered into his left, and the left into his right. Then he^-asws said: ‘I^-asws shall kill you^-asws, if Allah^-azwj so Desires it’. He said, ‘You^-asws will never be able to do that until the known term from my Lord^-azwj. What is the matter with you^-asws that you^-asws intend to kill me? By Allah^-azwj, no one hates you^-asws except that I have preceded my seed into the womb of his mother before the seed of his father and I have participated with the one who hates you^-asws in the wealth, and the children of his. And these are the Words of Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic in the Decisive of His^-azwj Book: and participate in their wealth and their children [17:64]’ – the Hadeeth’.[118]

Muhammad Bin Abdul Hameed, from Abu Jameela,

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws regarding the words of Suleyman^-as: Grant me a kingdom, not befitting for anyone from after me. Surely, You are the Bestower’ [38:35]. I said, ‘Was he^-as Given that which he^-as had supplicated for?’

قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ لَمْ يُعْطَ بَعْدَهُ إِنْسَانٌ مَا أُعْطِيَ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ مِنْ غَلَبَةِ الشَّيْطَانِ فَخَنَقَهُ إِلَى إِبْطِهِ‏ حَتَّى أَصَابَ لِسَانُهُ‏ يَدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لَوْ لَا مَا دَعَا بِهِ سُلَيْمَانُ ع لَأَرَيْتُكُمُوهُ‏

He^-asws said: ‘Yes, and no human being has been Given what the Prophet^-saww of Allah^-azwj was Given, from the overcoming the Satans^-la. He^-saww punched him to his armpit until it hit his tongue, the hand of Rasool-Allah^-saww. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘Had Suleyman^-as not supplicated with it, I^-saww would have shown it’’.[119]

9- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب ابْنُ جُبَيْرٍ قَالَ: تَوَجَّهَ النَّبِيُّ ص تِلْقَاءَ مَكَّةَ وَ قَامَ بِنَخْلَةَ فِي جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ يُصَلِّي فَمَرَّ بِهِ نَفَرٌ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَوَجَدُوهُ يُصَلِّي صَلَاةَ الْغَدَاةِ وَ يَتْلُو الْقُرْآنَ فَاسْتَمَعُوا إِلَيْهِ وَ قَالَ آخَرُونَ أُمِرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ يُنْذِرَ الْجِنَّ فَصَرَفَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ نَفَراً مِنَ الْجِنِّ مِنْ نَيْنَوَى

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – Ibn Jubeyr who said,

‘The Prophet^-saww headed towards Makkah and stood by a palm tree in the middle of the night to pray Salat. A number of Jinn passed by and found him^-saww praying the morning Salat and reciting the Quran and they listened to him^-saww, and others said, ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww was Commanded to warn the Jinn and Allah^-azwj Turned a number of Jinn from Naynawah to him^-saww’.

قَوْلُهُ‏ وَ إِذْ صَرَفْنا إِلَيْكَ نَفَراً مِنَ الْجِنِ‏ وَ كَانَ بَاتَ فِي وَادِي الْجِنِّ وَ هُوَ عَلَى مِيلٍ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ فَقَالَ ع إِنِّي أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَى الْجِنِّ اللَّيْلَةَ فَأَيُّكُمْ يَتَّبِعُنِي فَاتَّبَعَهُ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَ سَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ مِثْلَ مَا رَوَاهُ الطَّبْرِسِيُّ

His^-azwj Words: And when We Turned a number of the Jinn [46:29]. And he^-saww spent the night in a valley of the Jinn and it is a mile from Medina. He^-saww said: ‘I^-saww am Commanded to recite unto the Jinn tonight, so whichever of you will follow me?’ So, Ibn Masoud followed him^-saww’ – and he continued the Hadeeth like what Al-Tabarsy has reported.

وَ رُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ‏ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا سَبْعَةَ نَفَرٍ مِنْ جِنِّ نَصِيبِينَ فَجَعَلَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص رُسُلًا إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ وَ قَالَ زِرُّ بْنُ حُبَيْشٍ كَانُوا سَبْعَةً مِنْهُمْ زَوْبَعَةٌ وَ قَالَ غَيْرُهُ وَ هُمْ مسار وَ يسار وَ بشار وَ الأزد وَ خميع‏

And it is reported from Ibn Abbas that they were seven persons from the Jinn of Nasibayn. Rasool-Allah^-saww made them as messengers to their people’. And Zarr Bin Habeesh said, ‘They were seven, from them was Zowbah’. And others said, ‘And they were Masaar, and Yaasar, and Bashar, and Al-Azd and Khamie’’.[121]

10- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب‏ لَمَّا سَارَ النَّبِيُّ ص إِلَى وَادِي حُنَيْنٍ لِلْحَرْبِ إِذَا بِالطَّلَائِعِ قَدْ رَجَعَتْ وَ الْأَعْلَامُ وَ الْأَلْوِيَةُ قَدْ وَقَفَتْ فَقَالَ لَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ص يَا قَوْمِ مَا الْخَبَرَ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَيَّةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ قَدْ سَدَّتْ عَلَيْنَا الطَّرِيقَ كَأَنَّهَا جَبَلٌ عَظِيمٌ لَا يُمْكِنُنَا مِنَ الْمَسِيرِ

When the Prophet^-saww travelled to the valley of Hunayn for the war, and there the pioneers had returned and the news informers had paused. The Prophet^-saww said to them: ‘O people, what is the news?’ They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! A big snake as blocked the way unto us as if it was a large mountain, not enabling us from the travelling’.

فَسَارَ النَّبِيُّ ص حَتَّى أَشْرَفَ عَلَيْهَا فَرَفَعَتْ رَأْسَهَا وَ نَادَتِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَا الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ طَاحِ بْنِ إِبْلِيسَ مُؤْمِنٌ بِكَ قَدْ سِرْتُ إِلَيْكَ فِي عَشَرَةِ آلَافٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي حَتَّى أُعِينَكَ عَلَى حَرْبِ الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص انْعَزِلْ عَنَّا وَ سِرْ بِأَهْلِكَ عَنْ أَيْمَانِنَا فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ وَ سَارَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ‏

The Prophet^-saww travelled until overlooked upon it. It raised its head and called out, ‘The greetings be upon you^-saww, O Rasool-Allah^-saww! I am Al-Haysam Bin Talah Bin Iblees^-la, a believer in you^-saww. I have travelled to you^-saww among ten thousand of my family until I saw you^-saww upon a battle of the people’. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Isolate from us and travel with your people on our beliefs’. It did that and the Muslims travelled’’.[122]

I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘I shall be bringing in the chapter on the ‘Amal Al Neyrouz’, from Al Moalla Bin Khuneys, from Abu Abdullah^-asws: ‘The day of Al Neyrouz, it is the days in which Rasool-Allah^-azwj had dispatched Ali^-asws to the valley of the Jinn, and he^-asws took the pacts and the covenants from them’.

باب 10 آخر و هو من الأول في الهواتف من الجن و غيرهم بنبوته ص‏

CHAPTER 10 – ANOTHER, AND IT IS FROM THE FIRST, REGARDING THE NOTIFICATIONS FROM THE JINN AND OTHERS OF HIS^-saww PROPHET-HOOD

 

1- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب في حديث مازن بن العصفور الطائي‏ أنه لما نحر عتيرة سمع من صنمه.

بعث نبي من مضر		فدع نحيتا من حجر

ثم نحر يوما آخر عتيرة أخرى فسمع منه.

هذا نبي مرسل		جاء بخير منزل

أبو عبيس قال‏ سمعت قريش في الليل هاتفا على أبي قبيس يقول شعرا

إذا أسلم السعدان يصبح بمكة		محمد لا يخشى خلاف المخالف

فلما أصبحوا قال أبو سفيان من السعدان سعد بكر و سعد تميم ثم سمع في الليلة الثانية

أيا سعد سعد الأوس كن أنت ناصرا		و يا سعد سعد الخزرجين غطارف
أجيبا إلى داعي الهدى و تمنيا		على الله في الفردوس خير زخارف

فلما أصبحوا قال أبو سفيان هو سعد بن معاذ و سعد بن عبادة

قال تميم الداري‏ أدركني الليل في بعض طرقات الشام فلما أخذت مضجعي قلت أنا الليلة في جوار هذا الوادي فإذا مناد يقول عذ بالله فإن الجن لا تجير أحدا على الله قد بعث نبي الأميين رسول الله و قد صلينا خلفه بالحجون و ذهب كيد الشياطين و رميت بالشهب فانطلق إلى محمد رسول رب العالمين

سعيد بن جبير قال قال سواد بن قارب‏ نمت على جبل من جبال السراة فأتاني آت و ضربني برجله و قال قم يا سواد بن قارب أتاك رسول من لوي بن غالب فلما استويت أدبر و هو يقول

عجبت للجن و أرجاسها		و رحلها العيس بأحلاسها
تهوي إلى مكة تبغي الهدى‏		ما صالحوها مثل أنجاسها

فعدت فنمت فضربني برجله فقال مثل الأول فأدبر قائلا

عجبت للجن و تطلابها. و رحلها العيس بأقتابها		تهوي إلى مكة تبغي الهدى
ما صادقوها مثل كذابها

فعدت فنمت فضربني برجله فقال مثل الأول فلما استويت أدبر و هو يقول

عجبت للجن و أشرارها		و رحلها العيس بأكوارها. تهوي إلى مكة تبغي الهدى
ما مؤمنوها مثل كفارها

قال فركبت ناقتي و أتيت مكة عند النبي و أنشدته

أتاني جن قبل هدء و رقدة		و لم يك فيما قد أتانا بكاذب
ثلاث ليال قوله كل ليلة		أتاك رسول من لوي بن غالب
فأشهد أن الله لا رب غيره		و أنك مأمون على كل غائب

و كان لبني عذرة صنم يقال له حمام فلما بعث النبي ص سمع من جوفه يقول يا بني هند بن حزام ظهر الحق و أودى‏ الحمام و دفع الشرك الإسلام ثم نادى بعد أيام لطارق يقول يا طارق يا طارق بعث النبي الصادق جاء بوحي ناطق صدع صادع بتهامة لناصريه السلامة و لخاذليه الندامة هذا الوداع مني إلى يوم القيامة ثم وقع الصنم لوجهه فتكسر

قال زيد بن ربيعة فأتيت النبي ص فأخبرته بذلك فقال كلام الجن المؤمنين فدعانا إلى الإسلام

و سمع صوت الجن بمكة ليلة خرج النبي ص

جزى الله رب الناس خير جزائه		رسولا أتى في خيمتي أم معبد
فيا لقصي ما زوى الله عنكم		به من فعال لا يجازى بسودد

فأجابه حسان في قوله

لقد خاب قوم زال عنهم نبيهم		و قد سر من يسري إليه و يغتدي نبي يرى ما لا يرى الناس حوله
و يتلو كتاب الله في كل مشهد		و إن قال في يوم مقالة غائب
فتصديقها في ضحوة العيد أوغد

و هتف من جبال مكة يوم بدر

أذل الحنيفيون بدرا بوقعة		سينقض منها ملك كسرى و قيصرا
ألا ويح من أمسى عدو محمد		لقد ضاق خزيا في الحياة و خسرا
و أصبح في هافي‏ العجاجة معفرا		تناوله الطير الجياع و تنقرا

فعلموا الواقعة و ظهر الخبر من الغد

و دخل العباس بن مرداس السلمي على وثن يقال له الضمير فكنس ما حوله و مسحه و قبله فإذا صائح يصيح يا عباس بن مرداس

قل للقبائل من سليم كلها		هلك الضمير و فاز أهل المسجد
هلك الضمير و كان يعبد مرة		قبل الكتاب إلى النبي محمد
إن الذي جا بالنبوة و الهدى		بعد ابن مريم من قريش مهتد

فخرج في ثلاثمائة راكب من قومه إلى النبي ص فلما رآه النبي ص تبسم ثم قال يا عباس بن مرداس كيف كان إسلامك فقص عليه القصة فقال ص صدقت و سر بذلك ص

و في حديث سيار الغساني‏ لما قال له عمر أ كاهن أنت فقال قد هدى الله بالإسلام كل جاهل و دفع بالحق كل باطل و أقام بالقرآن كل مائل القصة فأخذت ظبية بذي العسف فإذا بهاتف‏

يا أيها الركب السراع الأربعه‏		خلوا سبيل الظبية المروعه‏

فخليتها فلما جن الليل فإذا أنا بهاتف يقول

خذها و لا تعجل و خذها عن ثقه		فإن شر السير سير الحقحقه
هذا نبي فائز من حققه

و قال عمرو بن جبلة الكلبي‏ عترنا عتيرة لعمرة اسم صنم فسمعنا من جوفه مخاطب سادنه عصام‏ يا عصام يا عصام جاء الإسلام و ذهبت الأصنام و حقنت‏ الدماء و وصلت الأرحام ففزعت من ذلك ثم عترنا أخرى فسمعنا يقول لرجل اسمه بكر يا بكر بن جبل جاء النبي المرسل يصدقه المطعمون في المحل أرباب يثرب ذات النخل و يكذبه أهل نجد و تهامة و أهل فلج و اليمامة

فأتيا إلى النبي و أسلما و أنشد عمرو

أجبت رسول الله إذ جاء بالهدى		فأصبحت بعد الحمد لله أوحدا

تكلم شيطان من جوف هبل بهذه الأبيات

قاتل الله رهط كعب بن فهر		ما أضل العقول و الأحلاما
جاءنا تائه‏ يعيب علينا		دين آبائنا الحماة الكراما

فسجدوا كلهم و تنقصوا النبي ص و قال هلموا غدا فسمع أيضا فحزن النبي ص من ذلك فأتاه جني مؤمن و قال يا رسول الله أنا قتلت مسعر الشيطان المتكلم في الأوثان فأحضر المجمع لأجيبه فلما اجتمعوا و دخل النبي ص خرت الأصنام على وجوهها فنصبوها و قالوا تكلم فقال

أنا الذي سماني المطهرا			أنا قتلت ذا الفخور مسعرا
	إذا طغى لما طغى و استكبرا		و أنكر الحق و رام المنكرا
	بشتمه نبينا المطهرا.		قد أنزل الله عليه السورا
	من بعد موسى فاتبعنا الأثرا.

فقالوا إن محمدا يخادع اللات كما خادعنا

تاريخ الطبري أنه روى الزهري في حديث جبير بن مطعم عن أبيه قال‏ كنا جلوسا قبل أن يبعث رسول الله بشهر نحرنا جزورا فإذا صائح يصيح من جوف الصنم‏

اسمعوا العجب ذهب استراق الوحي و يرمى بالشهب لنبي بمكة اسمه محمد مهاجرته إلى يثرب

الطبري في حديث ابن إسحاق و الزهري عن عبد الله بن كعب مولى عثمان أنه قال عمر لقد كنا في الجاهلية نعبد الأصنام و نعلق‏ الأوثان حتى أكرمنا الله بالإسلام فقال الأعرابي لقد كنت كاهنا في الجاهلية قال فأخبرنا ما أعجب ما جاءك به صاحبك قال جاءني قبل الإسلام جاء فقال أ لم تر إلى الجن أبالسها و إياسها من دينها و لحاقها بالقلاص و أحلاسها فقال عمر إني و الله لعند وثن من أوثان الجاهلية في معشر من قريش قد ذبح له رجل من العرب عجلا فنحن ننظر قسمه ليقسم لنا منه إذ سمعت من جوف العجل صوتا ما سمعت صوتا قط أنفذ منه و ذلك قبل الإسلام بشهر أو سنة يقول يا آل ذريح أمر نجيح رجل فصيح يقول لا إله إلا الله

و منه حديث الخثعمي و حديث سعد بن عبادة و حديث سعد بن عمرو الهذلي‏

و في حديث خزيم بن فاتك الأسدي‏ أنه وجد إبله بأبرق العزل القصة فسمع هاتفا

هذا رسول الله ذو الخيرات		جاء بياسين و حاميمات

فقلت من أنت قال أنا مالك بن مالك بعثني رسول الله إلى حي نجد قلت لو كان لي من يكفيني إبلي لأتيته فآمنت به فقال أنا فعلوت بعيرا منها و قصدت المدينة و الناس في صلاة الجمعة فقلت في نفسي لا أدخل حتى ينقضي صلاتهم فأنا أنيخ راحلتي إذ خرج إلي رجل قال يقول لك رسول الله ادخل فدخلت فلما رآني قال ما فعل الشيخ الذي ضمن لك أن يؤدي إبلك إلى أهلك قلت لا علم لي به قال إنه أداها سالمين‏ قلت أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله و أنك رسول الله‏

2- أَقُولُ رَوَى فِي الْمُنْتَقَى، بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مَرَّ عَلَى مَجْلِسٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِيهِ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ أَ كَاهِنٌ هُوَ

I (Majlisi) say, ‘It is narrated in ‘Al Muntaha’, through its chain of transmission from Ya‘qub Bin Zayd Bin Talha, that a man passed by a gathering in Medina in which Umar Bin Al-Khattab was present. Umar looked at him and said, ‘Is he a soothsayer?’

فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ هُدِيَ بِالْإِسْلَامِ كُلُّ جَاهِلٍ وَ دُفِعَ بِالْحَقِّ كُلُّ بَاطِلٍ وَ أُقِيمَ بِالْقُرْآنِ كُلُّ مَائِلٍ وَ أُغْنِيَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ ص كُلُّ عَائِلٍ

He replied, ‘O Commander of the Believers! Through Islam, every ignorant person was guided; through the truth, every falsehood was repelled; through the Qur’an, every deviation was set upright; and through Muhammad^-saww every needy person was made independent!’

فَقَالَ عُمَرُ مَتَى عَهْدُكَ بِهَا يَعْنِي صَاحِبَتَهُ قَالَ قُبَيْلَ الْإِسْلَامِ أَتَتْنِي فَصَرَخَتْ يَا سَلَامُ يَا سَلَامُ الْحَقُّ الْمُبِينُ وَ الْخَيْرُ الدَّائِمُ غَيْرُ حِلْمِ النَّائِمِ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ

Umar said, When was the last time you had contact with her? meaning his female companion. He said, Shortly before Islam, she came to me and cried out, ‘O Salam! O Salam! The manifest truth and the everlasting good, other than the sleep of the sleeper. Allah^-azwj is the Greatest!’

فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنَا أُحَدِّثُكَ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا لَنَسِيرُ فِي بَادِيَةٍ مَلْسَاءَ لَا يُسْمَعُ فِيهَا إِلَّا الصَّدَى‏ إِذْ نَظَرْنَا فَإِذَا رَاكِبٌ مُقْبِلٌ أَسْرَعُ مِنَ الْفَرَسِ حَتَّى كَانَ مِنَّا عَلَى قَدْرِ مَا يُسْمِعُنَا صَوْتَهُ فَقَالَ يَا أَحْمَدُ يَا أَحْمَدُ اللَّهُ أَعْلَى وَ أَمْجَدُ أَتَاكَ مَا وَعَدَكَ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ يَا أَحْمَدُ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ رَاحِلَتَهُ حَتَّى أَتَى مِنْ وَرَائِنَا

A man from the gathering said, ‘O Commander of the Believers! I will tell you something similar to this. By Allah^-azwj we were travelling through a smooth, barren land where nothing could be heard except the echo. Suddenly, we looked and saw a rider approaching, moving faster than a horse, until he came close enough for us to hear his voice. He said, ‘O Ahmad^-saww! O Ahmad^-saww! Allah^-azwj is Exalted and Glorious! That which He^-azwj Promised you of goodness has come to you, O Ahmad^-saww!’ Then he struck his mount and passed beyond us.

فَقَالَ عُمَرُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا بِالْإِسْلَامِ وَ أَكْرَمَنَا بِهِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَنَا أُحَدِّثُكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا وَ أَعْجَبَ قَالَ عُمَرُ حَدِّثْ

Umar said, ‘Praise belongs to Allah^-azwj, Who Guided us through Islam and Honoured us with it!’ A man from the Ansaar said, ‘O Commander of the Believers! I will tell you something similar to this, and it is astonishing’. Umar said, ‘Narrate!’

قَالَ انْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا وَ صَاحِبَانِ لِي نُرِيدُ الشَّامَ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِقَفْرَةٍ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ نَزَلْنَا بِهَا فَبَيْنَا نَحْنُ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ لَحِقَنَا رَاكِبٌ فَكُنَّا أَرْبَعَةً قَدْ أَصَابَنَا سَغَبٌ‏ شَدِيدٌ فَالْتَفَتُّ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِظَبْيَةٍ عَضْبَاءَ تَرْتَعُ قَرِيباً مِنَّا فَوَثَبْتُ إِلَيْهَا

He said, ‘I set out with two companions of mine, intending to go to Syria. When we reached a barren part of the land, we stopped there. While we were in that state, a rider caught up with us, so that we became four. We had been afflicted by severe hunger. I turned around, and there was a female deer with a cut off ear grazing close to us. I leapt towards it.

فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي لَحِقَنَا خَلِّ سَبِيلَهَا لَا أَبَا لَكَ وَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهَا وَ نَحْنُ نَسْلُكُ هَذَا الطَّرِيقَ وَ نَحْنُ عَشَرَةٌ أَوْ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَيُخْطَفُ‏ بَعْضُنَا فَمَا هُوَ إِلَّا أَنْ كَانَ هَذِهِ الظَّبْيَةُ فَمَا يُهَيِّجُهَا أَحَدٌ

The man who had caught up with us said, ‘Leave it alone, you fool! By Allah^-azwj! I have seen it before while we were travelling along this road. We were ten or more, and some of us would suddenly be snatched away. Yet when this deer was there, no one disturbed it!’

فَأَبَيْتُ وَ قُلْتُ لِعُمَرَ وَ اللَّهِ‏ لَا أُخَلِّيهَا فَارْتَحَلْنَا وَ قَدْ شَدَّدْتُهَا مَعِي حَتَّى إِذَا ذَهَبَ سَدَفٌ‏ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِذَا هَاتِفٌ يَهْتِفُ بِنَا وَ يَقُولُ‏

يَا أَيُّهَا الرَّكْبُ السِّرَاعُ الْأَرْبَعَهْ‏		خَلُّوا سَبِيلَ النَّافِرِ الْمُفَزَّعَهْ‏
خَلُّوا عَنِ الْعَضْبَاءِ فِي الْوَادِي مَعَهْ‏		لَا تَذْبَحَنَّ الظَّبْيَةَ الْمُرَوَّعَهْ‏
فِيهَا لِأَيْتَامٍ صِغَارٍ مَنْفَعَهْ‏

But I refused and said to Umar (recording error), ‘By Allah^-azwj! I will not leave it!’ We set off, and I had tied it with me. When a portion of the night had passed, suddenly a voice called out to us, saying, ‘O you four swift travelling riders, make way for the frightened one who has fled. Leave alone the doe with the cut off ear that is with you in the valley. Do not slaughter the terrified doe, for within it there is benefit for little orphans’.

 

قَالَ فَخَلَّيْتُ سَبِيلَهَا ثُمَّ انْطَلَقْنَا حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا الشَّامَ فَقَضَيْنَا حَوَائِجَنَا ثُمَّ أَقْبَلْنَا حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالْمَكَانِ الَّذِي كُنَّا فِيهِ هَتَفَ هَاتِفٌ مِنْ خَلْفِنَا

إِيَّاكَ لَا تَعْجَلْ وَ خُذْهَا مِنْ ثِقَهْ‏		فَإِنَّ شَرَّ السَّيْرِ سَيْرُ الْحَقْحَقَهْ‏
قَدْ لَاحَ نَجْمٌ وَ أَضَاءَ مَشْرِقَهْ‏		يَخْرُجُ مِنْ ظَلْمَاءَ عَسْفٌ مُوبِقَهْ‏
ذَاكَ رَسُولٌ مُفْلِحٌ مَنْ صَدَّقَهُ‏		اللَّهُ أَعْلَى أَمْرَهُ وَ حَقَّقَهْ‏

He said, ‘ I let her go. Then we proceeded until we reached Syria, where we attended to our needs. Then we returned, and when we reached the place where we had previously been, a voice called out from behind us, ‘Beware! Do not hasten, and take it with confidence. For the worst kind of travelling is hurried, exhausting travel. A star has appeared and illuminated its eastern horizon. A messenger is emerging from the darkness, with a saving mission. He is a successful Messenger; whoever believes in him will prosper. Allah has exalted his mission and established it firmly!’ (A historical account)[124]

‘Al-Ikhtisas’ – Abu Muhammad, from Sabah Al-Mazny, from Al Haris Bin Haseyra, from Al Asbagh Bin Nubata who said,

‘We were with Amir Al-Momineen Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws on the day of Friday in the Masjid after Al-Asr, when a tall man came as if he was a Bedouin, and greeted unto him^-asws. Ali^-asws said to him: ‘What happened to your Jinn who used to come to you?’ He said, ‘He comes to me until I paused in front of you^-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen^-asws’. Ali^-asws said: ‘Narrate to the people with what happened from him. So, we sat and listened to him.

He said, ‘I was sleeping in Yemen before Allah^-azwj Sent His^-azwj Prophet^-saww. Suddenly, a Jinn came to me in the middle of the night, kicked me in the chest, and said, ‘Sit up!’ I sat up in fear. He said, ‘Listen.’ I said, ‘What am I to listen to?’

He said: ‘I marvel at the jinn and their despair, and their riding the white camels with their saddlecloths. They hasten towards Mecca, seeking guidance. The pure among the jinn are not like their impure ones. Travel to the chosen one from Hashim, and cast your eyes upon its chief.’ [1] “Rafasahu” means: he struck him in the chest.

He said, ‘I was resting in Yemen before Allah^-azwj Sent His^-azwj Prophet^-saww and a Jinn came to me in the middle of the night and kicked me with his leg and said: ‘Sit!’ So, I sat up alarmed. He said, ‘Listen’. I said, ‘And what shall I listen to?’ He said a poem.

قَالَ فَقُلْتُ وَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ حَدَثَ فِي وُلْدِ هَاشِمٍ شَيْ‏ءٌ أَوْ يَحْدُثُ وَ مَا أَفْصَحَ‏ لِي وَ إِنِّي‏ لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يُفْصِحَ لِي فَأَرِقْتُ‏ لَيْلَتِي وَ أَصْبَحْتُ كَئِيباً فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْقَابِلَةِ أَتَانِي نِصْفَ اللَّيْلِ وَ أَنَا رَاقِدٌ فَرَفَسَنِي بِرِجْلِهِ وَ قَالَ اجْلِسْ فَجَلَسْتُ ذَعِراً فَقَالَ اسْمَعْ فَقُلْتُ وَ مَا أَسْمَعُ

He said, ‘I said, ‘Something has happened among the children of Hashim^-as or an event, and it has not been disclosed to me and I hope that it will be disclosed to me. I stayed awake during my night and in the morning, I was depressed. When it was the next day he came to be in the middle of the night and I was sleeping and he kicked me with his leg and said, ‘Sit!’ I sat up alarmed. He said, ‘Listen’. I said, ‘And what shall I listen to?’

قَالَ‏

عَجِبْتُ لِلْجِنِّ وَ أَلْبَابِهَا		وَ رَكْبِهَا الْعِيسَ بِأَنْيَابِهَا
تَهْوِي إِلَى مَكَّةَ تَبْغِي الْهُدَى‏		مَا صَادِقُو الْجِنِّ كَكَذَّابِهَا
فَارْحَلْ إِلَى الصَّفْوَةِ مِنْ هَاشِمٍ‏		أَحْمَدَ أَزْهَرَ خَيْرِ أَرْبَابِهَا

He said (a poem), ‘I marvel at the Jinn and their reports, and their riding the white camels with their saddlebags. They hasten towards Makkah, seeking guidance. The believing Jinn are not like their unbelieving ones. Travel to the chosen one from Hashim^-as among its hills and stones!’

قُلْتُ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ أَفْصَحْتَ فَأَيْنَ هُوَ قَالَ ظَهَرَ بِمَكَّةَ يَدْعُو إِلَى شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَأَصْبَحْتُ وَ رَحَلْتُ نَاقَتِي وَ وَجَّهْتُهَا قِبَلَ مَكَّةَ فَأَوَّلُ مَا دَخَلْتُهَا لَقِيتُ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ وَ كَانَ شَيْخاً ضَالًّا فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْحَيِّ فَقَالَ وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُمْ مُخْصِبُونَ إِلَّا أَنَّ يَتِيمَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَدْ أَفْسَدَ عَلَيْنَا دِينَنَا قُلْتُ وَ مَا اسْمُهُ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ أَحْمَدُ قُلْتُ وَ أَيْنَ هُوَ قَالَ تَزَوَّجَ بِخَدِيجَةَ بِنْتِ خُوَيْلِدٍ فَهُوَ عَلَيْهَا نَازِلٌ

I said, ‘Enemy of Allah^-azwj! disclose, where is he^-saww?’ He said, ‘At the back of Makkah calling to the testimony that there is no god except Allah^-azwj, and that Muhammad^-saww is Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj. In the morning I rode my camel and headed towards Makkah. As soon as I entered it, I met Abu Sufyan and he was a rogue old man. I greeted unto him and asked him about the life. He said, ‘By Allah^-azwj, it is good, except that an orphan of Abu Talib^-asws has spoilt our religion upon us’. I said, ‘And what is his name?’ He said, ‘Muhammad, Ahmad’. I said, ‘And where is he^-saww?’ He said, ‘He^-saww got married with (Syeda) Khadeeja^-asws Bint Khuwaylid and he^-saww is with her^-asws.

فَأَخَذْتُ بِخِطَامِ نَاقَتِي ثُمَّ انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى بَابِهَا فَعَقَلْتُ نَاقَتِي ثُمَّ ضَرَبْتُ الْبَابَ فَأَجَابَتْنِي مَنْ هَذَا فَقُلْتُ أَنَا أَرَدْتُ مُحَمَّداً فَقَالَتْ اذْهَبْ إِلَى عَمَلِكَ مَا تَذَرُونَ مُحَمَّداً يَأْوِيهِ ظِلُّ بَيْتٍ قَدْ طَرَدْتُمُوهُ وَ هَرَبْتُمُوهُ وَ حَصَّنْتُمُوهُ اذْهَبْ إِلَى عَمَلِكَ ‏

He grabbed the rein of my camel then ended up with me to her^-asws door and steadied my camel, then struck the door. She^-asws answered me, ‘Who is it?’ I said, ‘I want Muhammad^-saww’. She^-asws said, ‘Go to your work! You do not leave Muhammad^-saww sheltering in the shade of a house. You have expelled him^-saww, and fought him^-saww and besieged him^-saww. Go to your work!’

قُلْتُ رَحِمَكِ اللَّهُ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ أَقْبَلْتُ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ وَ عَسَى اللَّهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ مَنَّ عَلَيَّ بِهِ فَلَا تَحْرِمِينِيَ النَّظَرَ إِلَيْهِ وَ كَانَ ص رَحِيماً فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ يَا خَدِيجَةُ افْتَحِي الْبَابَ

I said, ‘May Allah^-azwj have Mercy on you^-asws! I am man coming from Yemen and it might happen that I would be conferred with him^-saww upon me, so do not deprive me of the looking at him^-saww; and he^-saww was merciful and I heard him^-saww saying: ‘O Khadeeja^-asws! Open the door’.

فَفَتَحَتْ فَدَخَلْتُ فَرَأَيْتُ النُّورَ فِي وَجْهِهِ سَاطِعاً نُورٌ فِي نُورٍ ثُمَّ دُرْتُ خَلْفَهُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِخَاتَمِ النُّبُوَّةِ مَعْجُونٌ عَلَى كَتِفِهِ الْأَيْمَنِ فَقَبَّلْتُهُ ثُمَّ قُمْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَ أَنْشَأْتُ أَقُولُ‏

أَتَانِي نَجِيٌ‏ بَعْدَ هَدْءٍ وَ رَقْدَةٍ		وَ لَمْ يَكُ فِيمَا قَدْ تَلَوْتُ‏ بِكَاذِبٍ‏
ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ قَوْلُهُ كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ		أَتَاكَ رَسُولٌ مِنْ لُوَيِّ بْنِ غَالِبٍ‏

She^-asws opened and I entered and saw the Noor shining in his^-saww face, Noor in Noor. Then I circled behind him^-saww and there I was with the seal of Prophet-hood pasted upon his^-saww right shoulder. I kissed it then stood in front of him^-saww.

And I prosed a poem saying, ‘A confidant came to me after the night had become still and after I had fallen asleep, and there was no falsehood in what I had recited. For three nights, his words each night were: “A Messenger from Luwayy Bin Ghalib has come to you.” So I gathered up the hem of my garment and set off, and the swift, broad chested she camel carried me through the open deserts. So tell us what has come to you, O best of those who are capable, even if what has come has brought grey hairs to the forelocks. I testify that Allah is the only one, that there is nothing besides Him, and that you are trusted concerning every hidden matter. And that you are the nearest of the Messengers in rank and means of access to Allah, O son of the most noble and pure ones. So be an intercessor for me on the Day when no intercessor can avail, before Allah, on behalf of Sawad Bin Qarib’.

وَ كَانَ اسْمُ الرَّجُلِ سَوَادَ بْنَ‏ قَارِبٍ فَرُحْتُ‏ وَ اللَّهِ مُؤْمِناً بِهِ ص ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى صِفِّينَ فَاسْتُشْهِدَ مَعَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع‏

 

And the name of the man was Sawad Bin Qarib. By Allah^-azwj! I rejoiced being a believer in him^-saww, then (he, as per the narrator) went out to Siffeen and was martyred with Amir Al-Momineen^-asws.[125]

4 كَنْزُ الْكَرَاجُكِيِّ، ذَكَرُوا أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِسَعْدِ الْعَشِيرَةِ صَنَمٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ فَرَّاصٌ وَ كَانُوا يُعَظِّمُونَهُ وَ كَانَ سَادِنَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي أَنَسِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعْدِ الْعَشِيرَةِ يُقَالُ لَهُ ابْنُ وَقْشَةَ فَحَدَّثَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي أَنَسِ اللَّهِ يُقَالُ لَهُ ذُبَابُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ كَانَ لِابْنِ وَقْشَةَ رَئِيٌ‏ مِنَ الْجِنِّ يُخْبِرُهُ بِمَا يَكُونُ فَأَتَاهُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَأَخْبَرَهُ

 

(The book) ‘Kanz’ of Al-Karajaky – They (reporters) mentioned that there used to be an idol for Sa’ad Al-Asheera called Faras, and they were revering it, and he was looked after by a man from the clan of Anasallah Bin Sa’ad Al Asheera called Ibn Waqasha. A man from the clan of Anasallah called Zabab Bin Al-Haris Bin Amro narrated saying, ‘There was an opining Jinn for Ibn Waqasha informing him of what will be happening (future events). One day he came and informed him.

قَالَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيَّ وَ قَالَ يَا ذُبَابُ اسْمَعِ الْعَجَبَ الْعُجَابَ بُعِثَ أَحْمَدُ بِالْكِتَابِ يَدْعُو بِمَكَّةَ لَا يُجَابُ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ مَا هَذَا الَّذِي تَقُولُ قَالَ مَا أَدْرِي هَكَذَا قِيلَ لِي فَلَمْ يَكُنْ إِلَّا قَلِيلٌ حَتَّى سَمِعْنَا بِخُرُوجِ النَّبِيِّ ص فَقَامَ ذُبَابٌ إِلَى الصَّنَمِ فَحَطَمَهُ ثُمَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ص فَأَسْلَمَ عَلَى يَدِهِ

 

He said, ‘He looked at me and said, ‘O Zabab! Listen to the wonder of wonders. Ahmad^-saww has been Sent with the Book calling at Makkah, not being answered’. I said, ‘What is this which you are saying?’ He said, ‘I don’t know. This is what he said to me’. He said, ‘It did not happen to be except a little while until we heard of the advent of the Prophet^-saww. Zabab stood up to the idol and broke it, then went to the Prophet^-saww and became a Muslim at his^-saww hands.

وَ قَالَ بَعْدَ إِسْلَامِهِ شِعْرٌ

تَبِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِذْ جَاءَ بِالْهُدَى‏		وَ خَلَّفْتُ فَرَّاصاً بِأَرْضٍ هَوَانٍ‏
شَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِ شِدَّةً فَتَرَكْتُهُ‏		كَأَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ وَ الدَّهْرُ ذُو حَدَثَانٍ‏
وَ لَمَّا رَأَيْتُ اللَّهَ أَظْهَرَ دِينَهُ‏		أَجَبْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حِينَ دَعَانِي‏
فَمَنْ مُبَلِّغُ سَعْدِ الْعَشِيرَةِ أَنَّنِي‏		شَرَيْتَ الَّذِي يَبْقَى بِآخَرَ فَانِي‏

And after his becoming a Muslims, he said a poem, ‘I followed Rasool-Allah^-saww when he came with guidance, and I left behind Farras in a land of humiliation. I confronted him with such force that I abandoned him as though he had never existed, while time is subject to constant change. When I saw that Allah had made His religion prevail, I answered the Messenger of Allah when he called me. Who will convey to Sa‘d Al Ashirah that I have exchanged that which perishes for that which remains?’

قَالَ وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِبَنِي عُذْرَةَ صَنَمٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ حَمَامٌ وَ كَانُوا يُعَظِّمُونَهُ وَ كَانَ فِي بَنِي هِنْدِ بْنِ حِزَامٍ وَ كَانَ سَادِنَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهُ طَارِقٌ وَ كَانُوا يَعْتِرُونَ عِنْدَهُ الْعَتَائِرَ قَالَ زِمْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الْعُذْرِيُّ فَلَمَّا ظَهَرَ النَّبِيُّ ص سَمِعْنَا مِنْهُ صَوْتاً وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا بَنِي هِنْدِ بْنِ حِزَامٍ ظَهَرَ الْحَقُّ وَ أَوْدَى حَمَامٌ وَ دَفَعَ الشِّرْكَ الْإِسْلَامُ

He said, ‘And it is reported that there was an idol for the clan of Azrah called Hamam, and they were revering it, and it was among the clan of Hind Bin Hazam, and a man called Tariq from them used to look after him, and they were perfuming it in his present with the perfumes. Zamal Bin Amro Al-Azry said, ‘When the Prophet^-saww appeared, we heard a voice from it and it was saying, ‘O clan of Hind Bin Hazam! The Truth has appeared and Hamam is destroyed, and Al-Islam has repelled the polytheism’.

قَالَ فَفَزِعْنَا لِذَلِكَ وَ هَالَنَا فَمَكَثْنَا أَيَّاماً ثُمَّ سَمِعْنَا صَوْتاً آخَرَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا طَارِقُ يَا طَارِقُ بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ الصَّادِقُ بِوَحْيٍ نَاطِقٍ صُدِعَ صَادِعٌ بِأَرْضِ تِهَامَةَ لِنَاصِرِيهِ السَّلَامَةُ وَ لِخَاذِلِيهِ النَّدَامَةُ هَذَا الْوَدَاعُ مِنِّي إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ثُمَّ وَقَعَ الصَّنَمُ لِوَجْهِهِ

He said, ‘We panicked at that and were terrified, and we remained for days, then we heard another voice and it was saying, ‘O Tariq! O Tariq! The truthful Prophet^-saww has been Sent with the speaking Revelation. A crack has cracked in the land of Tahama for the helpers of Islam and for the abandonment of the regret. This is the farewell from me up to the Day of Qiyamah’. Then the idol face upon its face.

قَالَ زِمْلٌ فَخَرَجْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ص وَ مَعِي نَفَرٌ مِنْ قَوْمِي فَأَخْبَرْنَاهُ بِمَا سَمِعْنَا فَقَالَ ذَاكَ كَلَامُ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنَ الْجِنِّ

Zamal said, ‘I went out until I came to the Prophet^-saww and with me were a number of my people, and we informed him^-saww with what he had heard. He^-saww said:’ That is the speech of a believer from the Jinn’.

ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْعَرَبِ إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَى الْأَنَامِ كَافَّةً أَدْعُوهُمْ‏ إِلَى عِبَادَةِ اللَّهِ وَحْدَهُ وَ إِنِّي رَسُولُهُ‏ وَ عَبْدُهُ وَ أَنْ تَحُجُّوا الْبَيْتَ وَ تَصُومُوا شَهْراً مِنِ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ شَهْراً وَ هُوَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ فَمَنْ أَجَابَنِي فَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ نُزُلًا وَ ثَوَاباً وَ مَنْ عَصَانِي كَانَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ مُنْقَلَباً وَ عِقَاباً قَالَ فَأَسْلَمْنَا وَ عَقَدَ لِي لِوَاءً وَ كَتَبَ لِي كِتَاباً فَقَالَ زِمْلٌ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ شِعْرٌ

Then he^-saww said: ‘O community of Arabs! I^-saww am a Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj to all the people. I^-saww call them to the worship of Allah^-azwj Alone, and I^-saww am His^-azwj Rasool^-saww and His^-azwj servant, and that you should perform Hajj of the House (Kabah), and Fast a month from the twelve months, and it is the Month of Ramazan. The one who answers me^-saww, Paradise would be for him as an abode and a Reward, and the one who disobeys me^-saww, for him would be the Fire as an overturning and a Punishment’.

قال: فأسلمنا وعقد لي لواء وكتب لي كتابا، فقال زمل عند ذلك. * (شعر) * إليك رسول الله أعملت نصها * اكلفها حزنا وقوزا من الرمل لانصر خير الناس نصرا مؤزرا * وأعقد حبلا من حبالك في حبلي وأشهد أن الله لا شئ غيره * آدين له ما أثقلت قدمي نعلي

He said, ‘We became Muslims and he^-saww tightened a flag for me and wrote a letter for me. Zamal said a poem at that, ‘To you, O Rasool-Allah^-saww! I have driven my she camel onward, making her travel through rugged ground and over sand dunes. I shall support the best of mankind with a strong and decisive support, and I shall tie a cord from your cords to my own cord. I testify that Allah^-azwj is the only One, and I submit to Him^-azwj for as long as my feet bear the weight of my sandals!”

قَالَ وَ ذَكَرُوا أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ مُرَّةَ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُ فَيَقُولُ خَرَجْتُ حَاجّاً فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ مِنْ قَوْمِي فَرَأَيْتُ فِي الْمَنَامِ وَ أَنَا فِي الطَّرِيقِ كَأَنَّ نُوراً قَدْ سَطَعَ مِنَ الْكَعْبَةِ حَتَّى أَضَاءَ إِلَى نَخْلِ يَثْرِبَ وَ جَبَلَيْ جُهَيْنَةَ الْأَشْعَرِ وَ الْأَجْرَدِ وَ سَمِعْتُ فِي النَّوْمِ قَائِلًا يَقُولُ تَقَشَّعَتِ الظَّلْمَاءُ وَ سَطَعَ الضِّيَاءُ وَ بُعِثَ خَاتَمُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ

He said, ‘And they mentioned that Amro Bin Marah was narrating, saying, ‘I went out as a pilgrim during the pre-Islamic period among a group of my people, and I saw in the dream and I was in the road, as if a Noor had spread out from the Kabah until it illuminated up to the palm trees of Yasrib and the ten hills of Juhayna and the individual. And I heard during the sleep a speaker saying, ‘The darkness is squeezed out and the illumination has spread, and the last of the Prophets^-as is Sent’.

ثُمَّ أَضَاءَ إِضَاءَةً أُخْرَى حَتَّى نَظَرْتُ إِلَى قُصُورِ الْحِيرَةِ وَ أَبْيَضِ الْمَدَائِنِ وَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ أَقْبَلَ حَقٌّ فَسَطَعَ وَ دَمَغَ بَاطِلٌ فَانْقَمَعَ فَانْتَبَهْتُ فَزِعاً وَ قُلْتُ لِأَصْحَابِي وَ اللَّهِ لَيَحْدُثَنَّ بِمَكَّةَ فِي هَذَا الْحَيِّ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ حَدَثٌ ثُمَّ أَخْبَرْتُهُمْ بِمَا رَأَيْتُ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفْنَا إِلَى بِلَادِنَا جَاءَنَا مُخْبِرٌ يُخْبِرُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَحْمَدُ قَدْ بُعِثَ

Then another illumination illuminated until I looked at the castles of Al-Hira and white cities and I heard him saying, ‘Truth has come and spread, and falsehood is stamped out and suppressed’. I woke up alarmed and said to my companion, ‘By Allah^-azwj! An event has occurred in this neighbourhood from Qureys’. Then I informed them with what I had seen. When we left to go to our city, an informant came to us informing that a man from Quraysh had said to him, ‘Ahmad^-saww has been Sent’.

وَ كَانَ لَنَا صَنَمٌ فَكُنْتُ أَنَا الَّذِي أَسْدُنُهُ فَشَدَدْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَكَسَرْتُهُ وَ خَرَجْتُ حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ عَلَيْهِ مَكَّةَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ يَا عَمْرَو بْنَ مُرَّةَ أَنَا النَّبِيُّ الْمُرْسَلُ إِلَى الْعِبَادِ كَافَّةً أَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ وَ آمُرُهُمْ بِحَقْنِ الدِّمَاءِ وَ صِلَةِ الْأَرْحَامِ وَ عِبَادَةِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَ رَفْضِ الْأَوْثَانِ وَ حِجِّ الْبَيْتِ وَ صَوْمِ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَمَنْ أَجَابَ فَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَ مَنْ عَصَى فَلَهُ النَّارُ فَآمِنْ بِاللَّهِ يَا عَمْرَو بْنَ مُرَّةَ تَأْمَنُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنَ النَّارِ

And there was an idol for us and I was the one who owned it, so I has hard upon it and broke it, and went out until I proceeded to him^-saww at Makkah and informed him^-saww. He^-saww said: ‘O Amro Bin Marah! I^-saww am the Prophet^-saww, the Messenger to the servant, all of them. I^-saww call them to Islam and instruct them with saving the blood, and helping the relatives, and worship the Beneficent, and reject the idols, and perform Hajj of the House (Kabah), and Fast the Month of Ramazan. The one who answers, Paradise is for him, and one who disobeys, the Fire is for him, therefore believe in Allah^-azwj, O Amro Bin Marah, you will be safe from the Fire of the Day of Qiyamah’.

فَقُلْتُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ آمَنْتُ بِمَا جِئْتَ بِهِ مِنْ حَلَالٍ وَ حَرَامٍ وَ إِنْ أَرْغَمَ ذَلِكَ كَثِيراً مِنَ الْأَقْوَامِ

I said, ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah^-azwj and you^-saww are Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj. I believe in what you^-saww have come with, from the Permissible and the Prohibited from obliging that on a lot of people’.

وَ أَنْشَأْتُ أَقُولُ‏

شَهِدْتُ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ حَقٌّ وَ أَنَّنِي‏		لِآلِهَةِ الْأَحْجَارِ أَوَّلُ تَارِكٍ‏
وَ شَمَّرْتُ عَنْ سَاقِي الْإِزَارَ مُهَاجِراً		إِلَيْكَ أَجُوبُ‏ الْوَعْثَ بَعْدَ الدَّكَادِكِ‏
لَأَصْحَبُ خَيْرَ النَّاسِ نَفْساً وَ وَالِداً		رَسُولُ مَلِيكِ النَّاسِ فَوْقَ الْحَبَائِكِ‏

And I prosed a poem saying, ‘And I began to say: ‘I testify that Allah^-azwj is the Truth, and that I am the first to abandon the gods of stone. I girded up my garment and set out as a migrant towards you, traversing the rough terrain after the hard, rugged ground. I shall accompany the best of mankind in character and lineage, the Messenger of the King of people, above the mountain passes’.

ثُمَّ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ابْعَثْنِي إِلَى قَوْمِي لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى أَنْ يَمُنَّ بِي عَلَيْهِمْ‏ كَمَا مَنَّ عَلَيَّ بِكَ فَبَعَثَنِي وَ قَالَ عَلَيْكَ بِالرِّفْقِ وَ الْقَوْلِ السَّدِيدِ وَ لَا تَكُ فَظّاً غَلِيظاً وَ لَا مُسْتَكْبِراً وَ لَا حَسُوداً

Then I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Send me to my people, perhaps Allah^-azwj Blessed and Exalted would Confer upon them through me, just as He^-azwj Conferred upon me through you^-saww’. He^-saww sent me, and said: ‘Upon you is to be with the kindness, and the good words, and do not be rude, harsh, nor arrogant nor envious’.

فَأَتَيْتُ قَوْمِي فَقُلْتُ يَا بَنِي رِفَاعَةَ بَلْ يَا مَعْشَرَ جُهَيْنَةَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ قَدْ جَعَلَكُمْ خِيَارَ مَنْ أَنْتُمْ مِنْهُ وَ بَغَّضَ إِلَيْكُمْ فِي جَاهِلِيَّتِكُمْ مَا حَبَّبَ إِلَى غَيْرِكُمْ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَجْمَعُونَ بَيْنَ الْأُخْتَيْنِ وَ يَخْلُفُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ عَلَى امْرَأَةِ أَبِيهِ وَ إِغَارَةً فِي الشَّهْرِ الْحَرَامِ فَأَجِيبُوا هَذَا الَّذِي مِنْ لُوَيٍّ تَنَالُوا شَرَفَ الدُّنْيَا وَ كَرَامَةَ الْآخِرَةِ وَ سَارِعُوا فِي أَمْرِهِ يَكُنْ بِذَلِكَ لَكُمْ عِنْدَهُ فَضِيلَةٌ

I came to my people and said, ‘O clan of Rafa’at! O community of Juheyna! Surely, Allah^-azwj, for Him^-azwj is the Praise, has Made you the Choice from whom you are, and hateful to you during your ignorance what is beloved to others from the Arabs, those who were gathering between two sisters (as wives), and the man from them inheriting the wife of his father, and attacking during the sacred months. Answer this, which would attain you the nobility of the world and the prestige of the Hereafter, and hasten in His^-azwj Command, due to that there would happen to be merit for you in His^-azwj Presence’.

قَالَ فَأَجَابُونِي إِلَّا رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ فَإِنَّهُ قَامَ فَقَالَ يَا عَمْرَو بْنَ مُرَّةَ أَمَرَّ اللَّهُ عَيْشَكَ أَ تَأْمُرُنَا بِرَفْضِ آلِهَتِنَا وَ تَفْرِيقِ جَمَاعَتِنَا وَ مُخَالَفَةِ دِينِ آبَائِنَا وَ مَنْ مَضَى مِنْ أَوَائِلِنَا إِلَى مَا يَدْعُوكَ إِلَيْهِ هَذَا الْمُضَرِيُّ مِنْ تِهَامَةَ لَا وَ لَا حُبّاً وَ لَا كَرَامَةً

He said, ‘No one answered me from them except one man, for he stood and said, ‘O Amro Bin Marah! Allah^-azwj Commanded you to live. You are instructing us with rejecting our gods and separate our community, and oppose the religion of our fathers and the ones from our early ones from the past to what you are calling to this harmful from Tahama. No, and there is no love nor any prestige’.

ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ يَقُولُ شِعْرٌ

إِنَّ ابْنَ مُرَّةَ قَدْ أَتَى بِمَقَالَةٍ		لَيْسَتْ مَقَالَةَ مَنْ يُرِيدُ صَلَاحاً
إِنِّي لَأَحْسَبُ قَوْلَهُ وَ فَعَالَهُ‏		يَوْماً وَ إِنْ طَالَ الزَّمَانُ ذَبَاحاً
يُسَفِّهُ الْأَحْلَامَ‏ مِمَّنْ قَدْ مَضَى‏		مَنْ رَامَ ذَاكَ لَا أَصَابَ فَلَاحاً

Then he prosed a poem, ‘Indeed, the son of Murrah has brought forth a statement that is not the statement of one who desires righteousness. I truly believe that his words and actions will one day, even if a long time passes, become destructive. He^-saww disparages the judgments of those who have passed before him; whoever seeks such a course will not attain success’’.

Amro the liar said to him, ‘From me and from you, may Allah^-azwj Cause his life to be bitter, and mute his tongue, and blind his eyes!’

فَقَالَ لَهُ عَمْرٌو الْكَذَّابُ مِنِّي وَ مِنْكَ أَمَرَّ اللَّهُ عَيْشَهُ وَ أَبْكَمَ لِسَانَهُ وَ أَكْمَهَ إِنْسَانَهُ‏ قَالَ عَمْرٌو فَوَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ عَمِيَ وَ مَا مَاتَ حَتَّى سَقَطَ فُوهُ وَ كَانَ لَا يَقْدِرُ عَلَى الْكَلَامِ وَ لَا يُبْصِرُ شَيْئاً وَ افْتَقَرَ وَ احْتَاجَ

Amro said, ‘By Allah^-azwj! He did become blind, and he did not die until his mouth fell (became paralysed) and he was not able upon the talking, and he could not see anything, and he was impoverished and needy’. [126]

باب 11 معجزاته في إخباره ص بالمغيبات و فيه كثير مما يتعلق بباب إعجاز القرآن‏

CHAPTER 11 – HIS^-saww MIRACLES REGARDING HIS^-saww INFORMING WITH THE HIDDEN MATTERS, AND IN IT IS A LOT FROM WHAT PERTAINS WITH THE CHAPTER OF THE MIRACLES OF THE QURAN

1- نجم، كتاب النجوم مِنْ كِتَابِ الدَّلَائِلِ تَصْنِيفِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع قَالَ: طَلَبَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص حَاجَةً فَقَالَ إِنَّكُمْ تُمْطَرُونَ غَداً فَأَصْبَحَتْ‏ كَأَنَّهَا زُجَاجَةٌ وَ ارْتَفَعَ النَّهَارُ قَالَ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ عَظِيمٌ عِنْدَ النَّاسِ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ أَغْنَاكَ عَمَّا تَكَلَّمْتَ بِهِ أَمْسِ مَا رَأَيْنَاكَ هَكَذَا قَطُّ

‘Kitab Al Nujoum’ – from the book ‘Al Dalaail’ authored by Abdullah Bin Ja’far Al Himeyri, by his chain,

‘From Al-Sadiq^-asws having said: ‘A group from Quraysh sought a need to the Prophet^-saww. He^-saww said: ‘You will be rained upon tomorrow’. In the morning (the sky) was (clear as) glass (no clouds), and the day rose. A man who was great among the people came and said, ‘You^-saww did not avail us from what you^-saww spoke with yesterday? I did not see you^-saww to be like that at all’.

فَارْتَفَعَتْ سَحَابَةٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ الصَّوْرَيْنِ فَاطَّرَدَتِ الْأَوْدِيَةُ وَ جَاءَهُمْ مِنَ الْمَطَرِ مَا جَاءُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالُوا اطْلُبْ إِلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يَكُفَّهَا عَنَّا فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَ لَا عَلَيْنَا فَارْتَفَعَ السَّحَابُ يَمِيناً وَ شِمَالًا

A cloud rose from the direction of the Sowreyn (a place near Medina). The valleys filled up and there came from the rain what had not come to them (before). They came to Rasool-Allah^-saww and said, ‘Request to Allah^-azwj to Withhold it from us’. He^-saww said: ‘O Allah^-azwj! Around us and not upon us!’ The cloud rose (to go) right and left’’.[127]

‘Qurb Al Isnaad’ – Al Yaqteeny, from Ibn Maymoun,

‘From Ja’far^-asws Bin Muhammad^-asws having said: ‘My^-asws father^-asws said: ‘The Prophet^-saww took some Dinars from Al-Abbas which were with him. He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! There is nothing with me other than these’. He^-saww said: ‘Where is that which you kept with Umm Al-Fazal?’ He said, ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah^-azwj and you^-saww are Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj. There was no one with her when I kept it with her’’.[128]

‘Basair Al Darajaat’ – Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Musa Bin Sa’dan, from Abdullah Bin Al Qasim, from Sabah Al Mazny, from Al Haris Bin Haseyra, from Haba Al Arny who said,

‘I heard Amir Al-Momineen^-asws saying that Yoshua Bin Noon^-as was the successor^-as of Musa^-as Bin Imran^-as and the Tablets of Musa^-as were of green emeralds. When Musa^-as was angry, he^-as threw the Tablets from his^-as hands, so, from these are what broke, and from these are what remained, and from these are what were Raised.

فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ عَنْ مُوسَى ع الْغَضَبُ قَالَ يُوشَعُ بْنُ نُونٍ ع أَ عِنْدَكَ تِبْيَانُ مَا فِي الْأَلْوَاحِ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَتَوَارَثُهَا رَهْطٌ مِنْ بَعْدِ رَهْطٍ حَتَّى وَقَعَتْ فِي أَيْدِي أَرْبَعَةِ رَهْطٍ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ وَ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ مُحَمَّداً ص بِتِهَامَةَ وَ بَلَّغَهُمُ الْخَبَرَ فَقَالُوا مَا يَقُولُ هَذَا النَّبِيُّ قِيلَ يَنْهَى عَنِ الْخَمْرِ وَ الزِّنَا وَ يَأْمُرُ بِمَحَاسِنِ الْأَخْلَاقِ وَ كَرَمِ الْجِوَارِ فَقَالُوا هَذَا أَوْلَى بِمَا فِي أَيْدِينَا مِنَّا

When the anger subsided from Musa^-as, Yoshua Bin Noon^-as said: ‘Is there explanation with you^-saww of what is in the Tablets?’ He^-as said: ‘Yes’. This did not cease to be inherited by a family after a family until it fell in the hands of a group of four from Yemen, and Allah^-azwj Sent Muhammad^-saww at Tahama, and the news reached them. They said, ‘What is this Prophet^-saww saying?’ It was said, ‘He^-saww prohibits from the wine and the adultery, and instructs with the good manners and the benevolence with the neighbours’. They said, ‘This is the first of what is in our hands’.

فَاتَّفَقُوا أَنْ يَأْتُوهُ فِي شَهْرِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَى جَبْرَئِيلَ ائْتِ النَّبِيَّ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ فُلَاناً وَ فُلَاناً وَ فُلَاناً وَ فُلَاناً وَرِثُوا أَلْوَاحَ مُوسَى ع وَ هُمْ يَأْتُوكَ فِي شَهْرِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فِي لَيْلَةِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَسَهَرَ لَهُمْ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ

They agreed that they would go to him^-saww during such and such month. Allah^-azwj Revealed to Jibraeel^-as to go to the Prophet and inform him^-saww. He^-as said: ‘So and so, and so and so, and so and so, and so and so have inherited the Tablets of Musa^-as and they would be coming to you^-saww during such and such month, during such and such night, so keep awake for them on that night’.

فَجَاءَ الرَّكْبُ فَدَقُّوا عَلَيْهِ الْبَابَ وَ هُمْ يَقُولُونَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ وَ يَا فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ وَ يَا فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ وَ يَا فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ أَيْنَ الْكِتَابُ الَّذِي تَوَارَثْتُمُوهُ مِنْ يُوشَعَ بْنِ نُونٍ وَصِيِّ مُوسَى بْنِ عِمْرَانَ قَالُوا نَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَنَّكَ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ اللَّهِ مَا عَلِمَ بِهِ أَحَدٌ قَطُّ مُنْذُ وَقَعَ عِنْدَنَا قَبْلَكَ

The riders came and knocked the door to him^-saww and they said, ‘O Muhammad^-saww!’ He^-saww said: ‘Yes, O so and so, and so and so, and so and so, and so and so! Where is the Book which you inherited from Yoshua^-as Bin Noon^-as, successor^-as of Musa^-as Bin Imran^-as?’ They said, ‘We testify that there is no god except Allah^-azwj and its limit is that there is no associate for Him^-azwj, and you^-saww Muhammad^-saww are Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj. By Allah^-azwj! No one knew of it at all before you^-saww since it fell into our hands’.

He^-asws said: ‘The Prophet^-saww took it and it was a Book in superfine Hebrew and handed it over to me^-asws, and I^-asws placed it under my^-asws head, and the next morning I^-asws woke up and it was a Book in majestic Arabic, wherein was knowledge of what Allah^-azwj had Created since the skies and the earth were established, up to the establishment of the Hour, and I^-asws know that’’.[129]

‘Qasas Al-Anbiya^-as’ – Al Sadouq, from Abdullah Bin Hamid, from Al-Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Is’haq, from Al Husayn Bin Is’haq Al Daqaq, from Umar Bin Khalid, from Umar Bin Rashid, from Abdul Rahman Bin Hurmala, from Saeed Bin Al Musayyab, from Abu Hureyra (well-known fabricator) who said,

He^-saww said: ‘You have come to ask me^-saww about doing good to the one who is rightful, so it is not befitting that you do good except to the one with affiliations or Religion; and you came to ask me^-saww about the Jihad of the woman, so the Jihad of the woman is to be goodly relationship to her husband; and you came to ask me^-saww about the sustenance, from where Allah^-azwj has Refused to Grace His^-azwj servants, except from where he does not know, for the servant, when he does not know the direction of his sustenance, his supplications would be frequent’’.[130]

‘Abu Sufyan came to the Prophet^-saww one day and he said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! I want to ask you^-saww about something’.

Ibn Abbas said, ‘By Allah^-azwj! He was not, except a hypocrite. And we were in a gathering wherein was Abu Sufyan, and he had closed his eyes, and among was also Ali^-asws, and the Muezzin proclaimed Azaan. When he said, ‘I testify that Muhammad^-saww is Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj’, Abu Sufyan said, ‘Is there anyone embarrassed over here?’ Someone from the people said, ‘No’.

He said, ‘This is Wail Bin Hajr who has come to you from a distant land, from Hazramaut (Yemen), desirous regarding Islam, willingly, being a remainder of the sons of the kings’. I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! Your^-saww appearance came to us and I was in a kingdom and Allah^-azwj Conferred upon me that I reject that and I preferred Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww and his^-saww Religion, being desirous regarding it’.

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘A camel of Rasool-Allah^-saww was lost during the military expedition of Tabuk. The hypocrites said, ‘He^-saww narrates to us about the hidden matters and does not know the place of his^-saww camel!’

Jibraeel^-as came to him^-saww and informed him^-saww with what they had said, and said: ‘Your^-saww camel is in such and such cave, its rein is struck in such and such tree’. Rasool-Allah^-saww called for the congregational Salat. The people gathered, and he^-saww said: ‘O you people! My^-saww camel is in such and such cave, so dedicate to it until it is brought’’.[135]

‘I said to Abu Abdullah^-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you^-asws! Did Rasool-Allah^-saww name Abu Bakr ‘Al Siddique’ (truthful)?’ He^-asws said: ‘Yes’. He said, ‘How come?’ He^-asws said: ‘When he was with him^-saww in the cave, Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘I^-saww see the ship of Ja’far^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws swaying in the sea, lost’.

He^-asws said: ‘He went near him^-saww, and he^-saww wiped upon his eyes, then said: ‘Look!’ Abu Bakr looked and saw the ship and it was swaying in the sea. Then he looked at the castles of the people of Medina and said within himself, ‘Now it is ratified that you^-saww are a sorcerer’. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘You are being ‘Al-Siddeeq’ (truthful)’ (in speaking of your soul).[136]

‘Ilam Al-Wara’, ‘Al Kharaih Wa Al Jaraih’ – It is reported that his^-saww camel was lost and the hypocrites taunted and they said, ‘He^-saww informs us with the news of the sky and does not know where his^-saww camel is?’ He^-saww heard that and said: ‘I^-saww, and even though I^-saww had informed you with the subtle secrets, but I^-saww don’t know from that except what Allah^-azwj Ley me^-saww know’.

Neither did that happen from him^-saww nor from them once of a few times, but frequency of that is such that it cannot be counted, until they thought he^-saww was guessing and that was with the guesswork and the estimation. How can that be so and he^-saww was informing them with what they had said upon what words they had pronounced, and he^-saww informed them about what was in their consciences. Every time the Signs were doubled upon them, it increased them in blindness in their enmity’’.[138]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that Ali^-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww sent me^-asws, and Al-Zubayr and Al-Miqdad^-ra with me^-asws and said: ‘Go until you reach a garden of Khaj for there is a woman therein, with her is a parchment from Hatib Bin Abu Balta’a to the polytheist’.

فَانْطَلَقْنَا وَ أَدْرَكْنَاهَا وَ قُلْنَا أَيْنَ الْكِتَابُ قال [قَالَتْ‏] مَا مَعِي كِتَابٌ فَفَتَّشَهَا الزُّبَيْرُ وَ الْمِقْدَادُ وَ قَالا مَا نَرَى مَعَهَا كِتَاباً فَقُلْتُ حَدَّثَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ تَقُولَانِ لَيْسَ مَعَهَا لَتُخْرِجِنَّهُ أَوْ لَأُجَرِّدَنَّكِ فَأَخْرَجَتْهُ مِنْ حُجْزَتِهَا

We went and met her and we said, ‘Where is the letter?’ She said, ‘There is no letter with me’. Al-Zubayr and Al-Miqdad^-ra investigated her and they said, ‘We do not see any letter with her’. I^-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww narrated with it and you two are saying it isn’t with her? Will you bring it out or shall I^-asws strip you’. She brought it out from the knot of her trousers.

فَلَمَّا عَادُوا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ يَا حَاطِبُ‏ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى هَذَا قَالَ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِي يَدٌ عِنْدَ الْقَوْمِ وَ مَا ارْتَدَدْتُ فَقَالَ صَدَقَ حَاطِبٌ لَا تَقُولُوا لَهُ إِلَّا خَيْراً

When they returned to the Prophet, he^-saww said: ‘O Hatib! What carried you upon this?’ He said, ‘I wanted a hand (favour) to be for me in the presence of the people and I did not hesitate’. He^-saww said: ‘Hatib speaks the truth. Do not say for him except good’.

وفي هذا إعلام بمعجزات: منها إخباره عن الكتاب وعن بلوغ المرأة روضة خاخ ومنها شهادته لحاطب بالصدق، فقد وجد كل ذلك كما أخبر.

And in these notifications of his^-saww miracles – from these is his^-saww informing about the Book and about the reaching of the woman the garden of Khaj, and from these is the his^-saww testimony for Hatib with the truthfulness, and all of that was found to be just as he^-saww had informed’.[140]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that the Prophet^-saww send Amar during a journey to fetch some water, and the Satan^-la presented to him in the image of a black slave and wrestled him three times. He^-saww said: ‘The Satan^-la had blocked between Amar and the water, in the image of a black slave, and Allah^-azwj Gave success to Amar’. He came and informed similar to it’’.[141]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that Abu Saeed Al Khudry said,

‘We went out in nineteen military expeditions and divided the work (between us), so one of us sat in the rides, and one of us worked for his companions and quenched their riding animals and made their food, and a group went to the Prophet^-saww, and among our friends was a man who did the work of three persons – he sewed, and quenched, and made food.

That was mentioned to the Prophet^-saww and he^-saww said: ‘That is a man from the people of the Fire’. We met the enemy and we fought them, and he was injured, and the man grabbed a spear and killed himself with it. Bear witness I^-saww am Rasool-Allah^-saww and His^-azwj servant’’.[142]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Ibn Abbas who said,

‘The Prophet^-saww was seated in the shade of a rock, and the shade was about to move away from him^-saww, he^-saww said: ‘A man will be coming to you looking at you with the eye of Satan^-la, so when he does come to you, then do not speak to him’.

فَلَمْ يَلْبَثُوا أَنْ طَلَعَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَجُلٌ أَزْرَقُ فَدَعَاهُ وَ قَالَ عَلَى مَا تَشْتِمُونِّي أَنْتَ وَ أَصْحَابُكَ فَقَالَ لَا نَفْعَلُ قَالَ دَعْنِي آتِكَ بِهِمْ فَدَعَاهُمْ فَجَعَلُوا يَحْلِفُونَ بِاللَّهِ مَا قَالُوا وَ مَا فَعَلُوا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ‏ يَوْمَ يَبْعَثُهُمُ اللَّهُ جَمِيعاً فَيَحْلِفُونَ لَهُ كَما يَحْلِفُونَ لَكُمْ‏

It was not long before a blue-eyed man emerged to them. He^-saww called him and said: ‘Upon what are you and your companions accusing me^-saww?’ He said, ‘We did not do so’. He^-saww said: ‘Leave me^-saww shall come to you with them’. He^-saww called them and they went on swearing by Allah^-azwj they had not said it and had not done it. So, Allah^-azwj Revealed: On the Day Allah would Resurrect them all, so they will swear to Him as they have been swearing to you all, [58:18]’’.[143]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – From the miracles of the Prophet^-saww is that Abu Al-Darda’a was worshipping an idol during the Pre-Islamic period, and Abdullah Bin Rawha and Muhammad Bin Muslim were awaiting Abu Darda’a to be alone. He was absent, and they entered into his house and broke his idol. When he returned, he said to his wife, ‘Who did this?’ She said, ‘I don’t know. I heard a sound and I came but they had gone out’. Then she said, ‘If the idol could defend (anyone), it would have defended itself’. He said, ‘Give me my garment and make it wear it’.

فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص هَذَا أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ يَجِي‏ءُ وَ يُسْلِمُ فَإِذَا هُوَ جَاءَ وَ أَسْلَمَ

The Prophet^-saww said: ‘This Abu Al-Dada’a will be coming and becoming a Muslim’. And there he came and became a Muslim’.

وَ مِنْهَا أَنَّهُ ص أَخْبَرَ أَبَا ذَرٍّ بِمَا جَرَى عَلَيْهِ بَعْدَ وَفَاتِهِ فَقَالَ كَيْفَ بِكَ إِذَا أُخْرِجْتَ مِنْ مَكَانِكَ قَالَ أَذْهَبُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ قَالَ كَيْفَ بِكَ إِذَا أُخْرِجْتَ مِنْهُ قَالَ أَذْهَبُ إِلَى الشَّامِ قَالَ كَيْفَ بِكَ إِذَا أُخْرِجْتَ مِنْهَا قَالَ أَعْمَدُ إِلَى سَيْفِي فَأَضْرِبُ بِهِ حَتَّى أُقْتَلَ

And from these is that he^-saww informed Abu Zarr^-ra with what would be flowing upon him^-ra after his^-saww expiry. He^-saww said: ‘How would it be with you^-ra when you are expelled from your^-ra place?’ He^-ra said: ‘I^-ra shall go to the Sacred Masjid’. He^-saww said: ‘How would it be with you^-ra when you^-ra are expelled from it?’ He^-ra said: ‘I^-ra shall go to Syria’. He^-saww said: ‘How would it be with you^-ra when you^-ra are expelled from it?’ He^-ra said: ‘I^-ra shall deliberate to my^-ra sword and strike with it until I^-ra am killed’.

قَالَ لَا تَفْعَلْ وَ لَكِنِ اسْمَعْ وَ أَطِعْ فَكَانَ مَا كَانَ حَتَّى أُخْرِجَ إِلَى الرَّبَذَةِ

He^-saww said: ‘Do not do so, but listen and obey’. It happened what happened until he^-ra was expelled to Al-Rabza’.

And from these is that he^-saww said to (Syeda) Fatima^-asws: ‘You^-asws would be the first one from my^-saww family members to meet me^-saww’, and she^-asws was the first one to pass away after him^-saww’.

And from these is that he^-saww said to his^-saww wives: ‘The longest of you in hand (most generous) would be the quickest of them to meet me^-saww’. Ayesha said, ‘We used to compete in the length of the hands (charity etc.) until Zaynab Bint Jahash died’.

It is reported that when Ayesha came to the waters of the clan of Aamir, the dogs of Al-Hawab barked at her. She said, ‘What is this (place)?’ They said, ‘Al-Hawab’. She said, ‘I do not think except that I should return. Return me for Rasool-Allah^-saww said to us (wives) one day, ‘How would it be with one of you when the dogs of Al-Hawab would bark at her?’

And from these is what is reported by Abu Saeed Al-Khudry that the Prophet^-saww vowed a vow one day. A man from Tameem said, ‘Be fair’. He^-saww said: ‘Woe be unto you! And who would be fair when I^-saww am not fair?’ It was said, ‘Shall we strike his neck?’ He^-saww said: ‘No. There are such companions for him who would degrade one of you of his Salat, and his Fasts, (compared) with their Salats and their Fasts, piercing through from the Religion the piercing of the arrow from the shooting. Their chief is a black-eyed, one of his breasts is like the breast of a woman’.

And from these – he^-saww said: ‘A city would be built between Dajlah and Dajeyl, and Qatarbal and Al-Sarah, the treasures of the earth would be collected to it, submerging with it’ – meaning Baghdad – and mentioned that the land is called Al-Basrah, to its side is a river called Dajlah, with palm trees. The clan of Qantoura would descend at it. The people will separate therein into three sects – a sect adhering with its people and they would be destroyed; and a sect seizing upon themselves and they would be disbelieving; and a sect who would make their offspring behind their back, fighting them, being killed as martyrs. Allah^-azwj will Grant victory upon their spot’’.[144]

فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا فَإِذَا عِيرٌ قَدْ جَاءَتْ وَ عَلَيْهَا مَتَاعٌ فَبَاعُوهُ فَفَضَلَ بِدِينَارٍ فَأَخَذَهُ الرَّجُلُ وَ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ قَالَ مَا أَصَبْتُ شَيْئاً قَالَ هَلْ أَصَبْتَ مِنْ عِيرِ آلِ فُلَانٍ شَيْئاً قَالَ لَا قَالَ بَلَى ضُرِبَ لَكَ فِيهَا بِسَهْمٍ وَ خَرَجْتَ مِنْهَا بِدِينَارٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَمَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى أَنْ تَكْذِبَ

He went to it and there was a caravan which had come and upon it was merchandise. They sold it for the price of a Dinar. The man took it and came to Rasool-Allah^-saww and said: ‘I did not attain anything’. He^-saww said: ‘Did you attain anything from the caravan of the family of so and so?’ He said, ‘No’. He^-saww said: ‘Yes, a share was struck for you in it and a Dinar came out from it’. He said, ‘Yes’. He^-saww said: ‘What carried you upon lying?’

قَالَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ صَادِقٌ وَ دَعَانِي إِلَى ذَلِكَ إِرَادَةُ أَنْ أَعْلَمَ أَ تَعْلَمُ مَا يَعْمَلُ النَّاسُ وَ أَنْ أَزْدَادَ خَيْراً إِلَى خَيْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص صَدَقْتَ مَنِ اسْتَغْنَى أَغْنَاهُ اللَّهُ وَ مَنْ فَتَحَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بَابَ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ سَبْعِينَ بَاباً مِنَ الْفَقْرِ لَا يَسُدُّ أَدْنَاهَا شَيْ‏ءٌ فَمَا رُئِيَ سَائِلًا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ

He said, ‘I testify that you^-saww are truthful, and what called me to that is that I wanted to know whether you^-saww know what the people do, and that goodness will be increased to good’. The Prophet^-saww said to him: ‘You speak the truth. One who is needless (of others), Allah^-azwj would Make him needless, and one who opens a door of asking (others) upon himself, Allah^-azwj would Open seventy doors unto him from the poverty, nothing would fill the lowest of it’. I did not see any beggar after that today’.

Then he^-saww said: ‘The charity is not Permissible for a rich one, nor is it for one with capability, besides, that it is not Permissible for him that he takes it while he is able of refraining from it’.[146]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Abu Ja’far^-asws having said: ‘While Rasool-Allah^-saww was seated one day when he^-saww stood up, changed of colour and went to meditate in the Masjid, then went on to whisper for a long time, then returned to them. They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! We saw a scene from you^-saww we have not seen in the past’. He^-saww said: ‘I^-saww looked at an Angel of the cloud, Ismail, and he has not descended to the earth except with Punishment. I^-saww leapt up fearing that something would descend among my^-saww community.

فَسَأَلْتُهُ مَا أَهْبَطَهُ فَقَالَ اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي فِي السَّلَامِ عَلَيْكَ فَأْذَنْ لِي قُلْتُ فَهَلْ أُمِرْتَ فِيهَا بِشَيْ‏ءٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ فِي يَوْمِ كَذَا وَ فِي شَهْرِ كَذَا فِي سَاعَةِ كَذَا

I^-saww asked him: ‘What have you descended for?’ He said, ‘I sought Permission of my Lord^-azwj regarding the greeting upon you^-saww, and He^-azwj Permitted me’. I^-saww said: ‘Did He^-azwj Command with anything regarding it?’ He said, ‘Yes, during such and such day, and during such and such month, during such and such time’.

They hypocrites said and they thought they were upon something, and they wrote that day, and it was a day of severe heat. The group came winking, and Rasool-Allah^-saww said to Ali^-asws: ‘Look, do you^-asws see anything in the sky?’ He^-asws went out, then said: ‘I^-asws see in such and such place as if a cloud is like a shield’. It was not long before the black clouds gathered, then there was a downpour upon them until the people raised a clamour’’.[147]

It is reported that he^-saww said to an army he^-saww sent them to Akeydar Dowmat of Al-Jandal: ‘But, you will be coming to him and will find him hunting the cow’, and they found him like that’.[149]

24- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ‏ إِذا جاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَ الْفَتْحُ‏ قَالَ نُعِيَتْ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي أَنِّي‏ مَقْبُوضٌ فَمَاتَ فِي تِلْكَ السَّنَةِ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that when (the Verse): When Help of Allah comes and the victory [110:1], was Revealed, he^-saww said: ‘I^-saww am notifying of my^-saww own expiry that I^-saww shall be passing away’. He^-saww passed away during that year’.

وَ قَالَ لَمَّا بَعَثَ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ إِنَّكَ لَا تَلْقَانِي بَعْدَ هَذَا

And he^-saww said when he^-saww sent Muaz Bin Jabal to Al-Yemen: ‘You will not meet me after this’’.[150]

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported from Al-Sadiq^-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww was hit by a severe wind during the military expedition of Al-Mustalaq. He^-saww turned the ride and it was almost knocked down. Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘But rather is it death of a hypocrite’. They said, ‘We proceeded to Al-Medina and we found Rafa’at Bin Zayd to have died during that day, and he was a big hypocrite, and his origin was from the Jews’.

A camel of Rasool-Allah^-saww got lost in that (stormy) wind. Yazeed Bin Al-Aseyb claimed, and he was in the house of Amara Bin Hazam, ‘How can he^-saww say he^-saww knows the hidden matters and he^-saww does not know where his^-saww camel is?’ He said, ‘Evil is what you say. By Allah^-azwj, it is certain he^-saww knows the hidden matters, and he^-saww is truthful’.

فَأُخْبِرَ النَّبِيُّ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَا يَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ نَاقَتِي فِي هَذَا الشِّعْبِ تَعَلَّقَ زِمَامُهَا بِشَجَرَةٍ فَوَجَدُوهَا كَذَلِكَ وَ لَمْ يَبْرَحْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْمَوْضِعِ فَأَخْرَجَ عُمَارَةُ ابْنَ الْأُصَيْبِ‏ مِنْ مَنْزِلِهِ

He informed the Prophet^-saww with that. He^-saww said: ‘No one knows the hidden matters except Allah^-azwj, and Allah^-azwj Informs me^-saww that my^-saww camel is in this (such and such) cave, its rein is stuck in a tree’. They found it like that, and no one departed from that place. Amarah expelled Ibn Al-Aseyb from his house’’.[151]

He came and with him was Khuwaylid Bin Al-Haris Al-Kalby until when they were near from Medina, the man was terrified from entering. Qays said to him, ‘But since you are refusing to enter, then be in this mountain until I go to him^-saww, so if I see that which you like, I shall call you, so follow me’.

He stayed and Qays went until when he entered into the Masjid to see the Prophet^-saww. He said, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! Am I safe?’ He^-saww said: ‘Yes, and so is your companion whom you left behind in the mountain’. He said, ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah^-azwj and you^-saww are Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj’. He pledged allegiance to him^-saww, and he^-saww sent him to fetch his companion’. He came. The Prophet^-saww said to him: ‘O Qays! Your people are my^-saww people, and for them regarding Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww is a successor^-asws’’.[152]

He^-saww permitted him^-ra, and they were attacked by the cavalry of Fazarah and they seized the livestock and killed son of his^-ra brother. Abu Zarr^-ra came deliberating (leaning) upon his^-ra staff and paused in the presence of Rasool-Allah^-saww, with him^-ra was a stab wound which had dried up, and he^-ra said: ‘Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww spoke the truth’’.[153]

Shall I get castrated?’ He^-saww said: ‘It is a matter which has been Ordained’, i.e. castration will not benefit. Abdullah has already been born and children came to be for him’’.[157]

32- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ نَاقَةً ضَلَّتْ لِبَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ فِي سَفَرٍ كَانَ فِيهِ فَقَالَ صَاحِبُهَا لَوْ كَانَ نَبِيّاً لَعَلِمَ أَيْنَ النَّاقَةُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ص فَقَالَ ص الْغَيْبُ لَا يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا اللَّهُ انْطَلِقْ يَا فُلَانُ فَإِنَّ نَاقَتَكَ فِي مَكَانِ كَذَا قَدْ تَعَلَّقَ زِمَامُهَا بِشَجَرَةٍ فَوَجَدَهَا كَمَا قَالَ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that a camel of one of his^-saww companions was lost during a journey he^-saww was in. Its owner said, ‘If he^-saww was a Prophet^-saww, he^-saww would have known where the camel was’. That reached the Prophet^-saww, and he^-saww said: ‘The hidden matters, none knows them except Allah^-azwj. O so and so! Your camel is in such and such place, its rein is truck in a tree’. They found it just as he^-saww said’’.[158]

33- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِهِ ص‏ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَ النَّاسَ بِمَكَّةَ بِمِعْرَاجِهِ وَ قَالَ آيَةُ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ نَدَّ لِبَنِي فُلَانٍ فِي طَرِيقِي بَعِيرٌ فَدَلَلْتُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ وَ هُوَ الْآنَ يَطْلُعُ‏ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ ثَنِيَّةِ كَذَا يَقْدُمُهَا جَمَلٌ أَوْرَقُ عَلَيْهِ غِرَارَتَانِ‏ إِحْدَاهُمَا سَوْدَاءُ وَ الْأُخْرَى بَرْقَاءُ فَوَجَدُوا الْأَمْرَ عَلَى مَا قَالَ

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – From his^-saww miracles is that he^-saww informed the people at Makkah of his^-saww Mi’raj (Ascension) and said: ‘A Sign of that is that a caravan of the clan of so and so was in my^-saww way’ – and he^-saww pointed them upon it – ‘and it would be emerging now unto you from such and such direction. In front of it is an unridden camel having two saddlebags upon it – and one of them black and the other thick’. They found the matter to be upon what he^-saww had said.

وَ مِنْهَا أَنَّهُ ص رَأَى عَلِيّاً ع نَائِماً فِي بَعْضِ الْغَزَوَاتِ فِي التُّرَابِ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا تُرَابٍ أَ لَا أُحَدِّثُكَ بِأَشْقَى النَّاسِ أَخِي ثَمُودَ وَ الَّذِي يَضْرِبُكَ عَلَى هَذَا وَ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى قَرْنِهِ حَتَّى تَبُلَّ هَذِهِ مِنْ هَذَا وَ أَشَارَ إِلَى لِحْيَتِهِ

And from these is that he^-saww saw Ali^-asws sleeping in the dust (ground) during one of the military expeditions and he^-saww said: ‘O Abu Al-Turab^-asws’ (father of the dust). Shall I^-saww narrate to you^-asws with the most wretched of the people? (He is) the brother of Samood (Qadar), and the one who will be striking upon this’ – and he^-saww placed his^-saww hand upon his^-asws head – ‘until this is dyed from this?’ – and gestured to his^-asws beard.

وَ مِنْهَا أَنَّهُ ص قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ ع تُقَاتِلُ بَعْدِي النَّاكِثِينَ وَ الْقَاسِطِينَ وَ الْمَارِقِينَ فَكَانَ كَذَلِكَ

And from these is that he^-saww said to Ali^-asws: ‘After me^-saww you^-asws shall fight the allegiance breakers, and the unjust, and the renegades!’ That happened.

وَ مِنْهَا قَوْلُهُ لِعَمَّارٍ سَتَقْتُلُكَ الْفِئَةُ الْبَاغِيَةُ وَ آخِرُ زَادِكَ ضَيَاحٌ مِنْ لَبَنٍ فَأُتِيَ عَمَّارٌ بِصِفِّينَ بِلَبَنٍ فَشَرِبَهُ فَبَارَزَ فَقُتِلَ

And from these are his^-saww words to Ammar^-ar: ‘The rebel group will be killing you (ar.), and the last of your^-ar provisions would be a portion of milk!’ Milk was brought to Ammar^-ar at (the battle of) Siffeen. He^-ar duelled and was killed.

وَ مِنْهَا أَنَّهُ لَمَّا كَانَتْ قُرَيْشٌ تَحَالَفُوا وَ كَتَبُوا بَيْنَهُمْ صَحِيفَةً أَلَّا يُجَالِسُوا وَاحِداً مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَ لَا يُبَايِعُوهُمْ حَتَّى يُسَلِّمُوا إِلَيْهِمْ مُحَمَّداً لِيَقْتُلُوهُ وَ عَلَّقُوا تِلْكَ الصَّحِيفَةَ فِي الْكَعْبَةِ وَ حَاصَرُوا بَنِي هَاشِمٍ فِي الشِّعْبِ شِعْبِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ أَرْبَعَ سِنِينَ

And from these is that when Quraysh took oaths and wrote a parchment (pact) between them they will not sit with any one from the Clan of Hashim^-as nor sell to them until they submit Muhammad^-saww to them in order to kill him^-saww, and they hung that parchment in the Kabah; and they besieged the Clan of Hashim in the cave, cave of Abdul Muttalib^-asws, for four years.

فَأَصْبَحَ النَّبِيُّ ص يَوْماً وَ قَالَ لِعَمِّهِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ إِنَّ الصَّحِيفَةَ الَّتِي كَتَبَتْهَا قُرَيْشٌ فِي قَطِيعَتِنَا قَدْ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهَا دَابَّةً فَلَحِسَتْ كُلَّ مَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ اسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ كَانُوا قَدْ خَتَمُوهَا بِأَرْبَعِينَ خَاتَماً مِنْ رُؤَسَاءِ قُرَيْشٍ فَقَالَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي أَ فَأَصِيرُ إِلَى قُرَيْشٍ فَأُعْلِمَهُمْ بِذَلِكَ قَالَ إِنْ شِئْتَ

The Prophet^-saww woke up in the morning one day and said to his^-saww uncle^-asws Abu Talib^-asws: ‘The parchment which Quraysh wrote down regarding cutting us off, Allah^-azwj has Sent an insect to it and it chewed away whatever was therein apart from the Name of Allah^-azwj’, and they had sealed it with forty seals from the chiefs of the Quraysh. Abu Talib^-asws said: ‘O my brother’s son^-saww! Shall I^-asws go to Quraysh and let them know of that?’ He^-saww said: ‘If you^-asws like’.

فَصَارَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ إِلَيْهِمْ فَاسْتَبْشَرُوا بِمَصِيرِهِ إِلَيْهِمْ وَ اسْتَقْبَلُوهُ بِالتَّعْظِيمِ وَ الْإِجْلَالِ وَ قَالُوا قَدْ عَلِمْنَا الْآنَ أَنَّ رِضَى قَوْمِكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ مِمَّا كُنْتَ فِيهِ أَ فَتُسَلِّمُ إِلَيْنَا مُحَمَّداً وَ لِهَذَا جِئْتَنَا

Abu Talib^-asws went to them and they rejoiced with his^-asws coming to them and they welcomed him^-asws with the reverence and honour and said, ‘Now we have come to know that the pleasure of your^-asws people is more beloved to you^-asws that what you^-asws were in. Will you^-asws submit Muhammad^-saww to us, and is this what you have come for?’

فَقَالَ يَا قَوْمِ قَدْ جِئْتُكُمْ‏ بِخَبَرٍ أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ ابْنُ أَخِي مُحَمَّدٌ فَانْظُرُوا فِي ذَلِكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ كَمَا قَالَ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَ ارْجِعُوا عَنْ قَطِيعَتِنَا وَ إِنْ كَانَ بِخِلَافِ مَا قَالَ سَلَّمْتُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ وَ اتَّبَعْتُ مَرْضَاتَكم قَالُوا وَ مَا الَّذِي أَخْبَرَكَ

He^-asws said: ‘O people! I^-asws have come to you with news my^-asws nephew Muhammad^-saww has informed me^-asws with, so look into that. If it was just as he^-saww said, then fear Allah^-azwj and return from cutting us off, and if it was different of what he^-saww says, I^-asws shall submit him^-saww to you all and follow your pleasure’. They said, ‘And what is that which he^-saww informed you^-asws?’

قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ بَعَثَ عَلَى صَحِيفَتِكُمْ دَابَّةً فَلَحِسَتْ مَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ اسْمِ اللَّهِ فَحُطُّوهَا فَإِنْ كَانَ الْأَمْرُ بِخِلَافِ مَا قَالَ سَلَّمْتُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ فَفَتَحُوهَا فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا فِيهَا شَيْئاً غَيْرَ اسْمِ اللَّهِ فَتَفَرَّقُوا وَ هُمْ يَقُولُونَ سِحْرٌ سَحَرَ وَ انْصَرَفَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ

He^-asws said: ‘He^-saww informed me that Allah^-azwj has Sent an insect to your parchment and chewed up whatever was therein apart from the Name of Allah^-azwj and cut it down. So, if the matter was different to what he^-saww said, I^-asws shall submit him^-saww to you all’. They opened it and did not find anything in it apart from the Name of Allah^-azwj. They dispersed and they were saying, ‘Sorcery! Sorcery!’, and Abu Talib^-asws left’’.[159]

34- يج، الخرائج و الجرائح رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص كَانَ يَوْماً جَالِساً وَ حَوْلَهُ عَلِيٌّ وَ فَاطِمَةُ وَ الْحَسَنُ وَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع فَقَالَ لَهُمْ كَيْفَ بِكُمْ إِذَا كُنْتُمْ صَرْعَى وَ قُبُورُكُمْ شَتَّى

‘Al-Kharaij Wa Al-Jaraih’ – It is reported that the Prophet^-saww was one day seated and around him^-saww were Ali^-asws and (Syeda) Fatima^-asws and Al-Hassan^-asws and Al-Husayn^-asws. He^-saww said to them^-asws: ‘How would it be with you^-asws all when you^-asws are overthrown (of your^-asws rights) and your^-asws graves are diverse (in different parts of the land)?’

فَقَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع أَ نَمُوتُ مَوْتاً أَوْ نُقْتَلُ قَتْلًا فَقَالَ بَلْ تُقْتَلُ يَا بُنَيَّ ظُلْماً وَ يُقْتَلُ أَخُوكَ ظُلْماً وَ يُقْتَلُ أَبُوكَ ظُلْماً وَ تُشَرَّدُ ذَرَارِيُّكُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ

Al-Husayn^-asws said: ‘Will we^-asws be dying a death or killed a killing?’ He^-saww said: ‘But, you^-asws will be killed unjustly, O my^-saww son^-asws, and your^-asws brother^-asws will be killed unjustly, and your^-asws father^-asws will be killed unjustly, and your^-asws offspring will be displaced in the earth’.

فَقَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع وَ مَنْ يَقْتُلُنَا قَالَ شِرَارُ النَّاسِ قَالَ فَهَلْ يَزُورُنَا أَحَدٌ قَالَ نَعَمْ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُرِيدُونَ بِزِيَارَتِكُمْ بِرِّي وَ صِلَتِي فَإِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ‏ الْقِيَامَةِ جِئْتُهُمْ وَ أُخَلِّصُهُمْ مِنْ أَهْوَالِهِ

Al-Husayn^-asws said: ‘And who will be killing us^-asws?’ He^-saww said: ‘The evil ones of the people’. He^-asws said: ‘Will anyone visit us^-asws (our^-asws graves)?’ He^-saww said: ‘Yes, a group from my^-saww community intending by their visitations being righteous with me^-saww and my^-saww connection. So, when it will be the Day of Qiyamah, they will come and I^-saww shall finish them off from its horrors’’.[160]

35- شف، كشف اليقين مِنْ كِتَابٍ عَتِيقٍ تَارِيخُهُ سَنَةُ ثَمَانٍ وَ ثَمَانِينَ‏ هِجْرِيَّةٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا هَذَا لَفْظُهُ‏ وَ أَنَا كُنْتُ مَعَهُ ص يَوْمَ قَالَ يَأْتِي تِسْعُ نَفَرٍ مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ فَيُسْلِمُ مِنْهُمْ سِتَّةٌ وَ لَا يُسْلِمُ مِنْهُمْ ثَلَاثَةٌ فَوَقَعَ فِي قُلُوبِ كَثِيرٍ مِنْ كَلَامِهِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَقَعَ فَقُلْتُ أَنَا صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ هُوَ كَمَا قُلْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ

‘Kashf Al Yaqeen’ – From the book of Ateeq, its history of the year eighty-eight Hijra (88 AH), said, ‘It is narrated to us by Abdullah Bin Ja’far Al Zuhry, from his father,

‘From Ja’far^-asws Bin Muhammad^-asws, from his^-asws father^-asws, from his^-asws grandfather^-asws – then said: ‘These are not his word: ‘And I was with him on the day he^-asws said: ‘Nine persons came from Hazramaut and six of them became Muslim, and three of them did not become Muslims, and there occurred in the hearts of a lot of people from his^-saww speech what Allah^-azwj so Desired to occur. I^-asws said: ‘Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj speak the truth. It is just as you^-saww said O Rasool-Allah^-saww!’

فَقَالَ أَنْتَ الصِّدِّيقُ الْأَكْبَرُ وَ يَعْسُوبُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ إِمَامُهُمْ وَ تَرَى مَا أَرَى وَ تَعْلَمُ مَا أَعْلَمُ وَ أَنْتَ أَوَّلُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِيمَاناً وَ كَذَلِكَ خَلَقَكَ اللَّهُ وَ نَزَعَ مِنْكَ الشَّكَّ وَ الضَّلَالَ فَأَنْتَ الْهَادِي الثَّانِي وَ الْوَزِيرُ الصَّادِقُ

He^-saww said: ‘You^-asws are the great truthful, and leader of the Momineen and their Imam^-asws, and you^-asws see whatever I^-saww see, and you^-asws know whatever I^-saww know, and you^-asws are the first of the Momineen in Eman, and like that Allah^-azwj Created you^-asws and Removed the doubt and straying from you^-asws. You^-asws are the second guide, and the truthful Vizier’.

فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ قَعَدَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ذَلِكَ وَ أَنَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ أَقْبَلَ التِّسْعَةُ رَهْطٍ مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ حَتَّى دَنَوْا مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ص وَ سَلَّمُوا فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلَامَ وَ قَالُوا يَا مُحَمَّدُ اعْرِضْ عَلَيْنَا الْإِسْلَامَ فَأَسْلَمَ مِنْهُمْ سِتَّةٌ وَ لَمْ يُسْلِمِ الثَّلَاثَةُ فَانْصَرَفُوا

When Rasool-Allah^-saww woke up in the morning and sat in that gathering of his^-saww, and I^-asws was on his^-saww right, a group of nine came from Hazramaut until they were close to the Prophet^-saww and they greeted. He^-saww returned the greeting to them, and they said, ‘O Muhammad^-saww! Present Islam to us’. Then six of them became Muslims and the three did not, and they turned to leave.

فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص لِلثَّلَاثَةِ أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا فُلَانُ فَسَتَمُوتُ بِصَاعِقَةٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَ أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا فُلَانُ فَسَيَضْرِبُكَ أَفْعًى فِي مَوْضِعِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا فُلَانُ فَإِنَّكَ تَخْرُجُ فِي طَلَبِ مَاشِيَةٍ وَ إِبِلٍ لَكَ فَيَسْتَقْبِلُكَ نَاسٌ مِنْ كَذَا فَيَقْتُلُونَكَ

The Prophet^-saww said to the three: ‘As for you, O so and so, you will be dying by a thunderbolt from the sky; and as for you, O so and so, a snake will strike you in such and such place; and as for you, O so and so, you will be going out in seeking livelihood with your camel, some people will face you from such and such (tribe) and they will kill you’.

فَوَقَعَ فِي قُلُوبِ الَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُوا فَرَجَعُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ لَهُمْ مَا فَعَلَ أَصْحَابُكُمُ الثَّلَاثَةُ الَّذِينَ تَوَلَّوْا عَنِ الْإِسْلَامِ وَ لَمْ يُسْلِمُوا فَقَالُوا وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً مَا جَاوَزُوا مَا قُلْتَ وَ كُلٌّ مَاتَ بِمَا قُلْتَ وَ إِنَّا جِئْنَاكَ لِنُجَدِّدَ الْإِسْلَامَ وَ نَشْهَدَ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ أَنَّكَ الْأَمِينُ عَلَى الْأَحْيَاءِ وَ الْأَمْوَاتِ‏

There occurred in the hearts of those who had become Muslims, and they returned to Rasool-Allah^-saww. He^-saww said to them: ‘What happened to your three companions, those who had turned around from Islam and did not become Muslims?’ They said, ‘By the One^-azwj Who Sent you^-saww with the Truth as a Prophet^-saww! They did not exceed what you^-saww said, and each one died with what you^-saww said, and we came to you^-saww in order to renew the Islam and testify unto you^-saww that you^-saww are Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj, and you^-saww are the custodian upon the living ones and the dead’’.[161]

36 عم، إعلام الورى‏ وَ أَمَّا آيَاتُهُ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فِي إِخْبَارِهِ بِالْغَائِبَاتِ وَ الْكَوَائِنِ بَعْدَهُ فَأَكْثَرُ مِنْ أَنْ تُحْصَى وَ تُعَدَّ فَمِنْ ذَلِكَ مَا رُوِيَ عَنْهُ فِي مَعْنَى قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى‏ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَ لَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ‏ وَ هُوَ مَا رَوَاهُ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ بُشِّرَ هَذِهِ الْأَمَةُ بِالسَّنَاءِ وَ الرِّفْعَةِ وَ النُّصْرَةِ وَ التَّمْكِينِ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَمَنْ عَمِلَ مِنْهُمْ عَمَلَ الْآخِرَةِ لِلدُّنْيَا لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ نَصِيبٌ

‘Ilam Al-Wara’ – And as for his^-saww signs regarding his^-saww informing with the hidden matters and future events after him^-saww, these are more than can be counted and numbered. From that is what is reported from him^-saww regarding the Words of the Exalted: in order to prevail it upon all the Religions, and even if the Polytheists dislike it [9:33], and it is what is reported by Abay Bin Ka’ab that Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘This community has been given glad tidings with the eminence, and the esteem, and the support, and the enablement in the earth. The one from them works a deed of the Hereafter for the (sake of the) world, there would not be any share for him in the Hereafter’.

وَ رَوَى بُرَيْدَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ أَنَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: سَتُبْعَثُ بُعُوثٌ‏ فَكُنْ فِي بَعْثٍ يَأْتِي خُرَاسَانَ ثُمَّ اسْكُنْ مَدِينَةَ مَرْوٍ فَإِنَّهُ بَنَاهَا ذُو الْقَرْنَيْنِ وَ دَعَا لَهَا بِالْبَرَكَةِ وَ قَالَ لَا يُصِيبُ أَهْلَهَا سُوءٌ

And it is reported by Bureyda Al-Aslamy, he^-asws said, ‘And army will be sent, so be in the army going to Khurasan, then settle in the city of Merv, for it was built by Zulqarnayn’, and he^-asws supplicated for it with the Blessings and said: ‘Its inhabitants will not be afflicted by evil’.

وَ رَوَى أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص‏ لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تُقَاتِلُوا خُوزاً وَ كِرْمَانَ قَوْماً مِنْ أَعَاجِمَ حُمْرَ الْوُجُوهِ فُطْسَ الْأُنُوفِ صِغَارَ الْأَعْيُنِ كَأَنَّ وُجُوهَهُمُ الْمَجَانُّ الْمُطْرَقَةُ

It is reported by Abu Hureyra (fabricator) who said, ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww said:’ The Hour will not be established until Khowz and Kirman battle, two people from the non-Arabs of red faces, crooked noses, small eyes, as if their faces are layered’.

وَ رَوَى أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص‏ رَأَيْتُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فِيمَا يَرَى النَّائِمُ كَأَنَّا فِي دَارِ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ رَافِعٍ فَأُتِينَا بِرُطَبٍ مِنْ رُطَبِ ابْنِ طَابٍ‏ فَأَوَّلْتُ الرِّفْعَةَ لَنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْعَافِيَةَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَ أَنَّ دِينَنَا قَدْ طَابَ

It is reported by Anas Bin Malik (the famous fabricator) who said, ‘One night I saw among what the sleeping one tends to see, as if I was in the house of Aqaba Bin Rafie and he came to us with dates from the Ibn Taab dates (a type), so I said, ‘The raising is for us in the world, and the well-being in the Hereafter, and our Religion has been good’.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِخْبَارُهُ بِمَا يُحْدِثُ أُمَّتُهُ بَعْدَهُ نَحْوَ قَوْلِهِ ص لَا تَرْجِعُوا بَعْدِي كُفَّاراً يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ- رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مَرْفُوعاً إِلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ

And from that is his^-saww informing with what his^-saww community would be innovating after him^-saww, approximate to his^-saww words: ‘And you will returning as Kafirs after me^-saww, striking each other’s necks’ – It is reported by Al-Bukhari in ‘Al-Saheeh’ raising it to Ibn Umar.

وَ قَوْلُهُ رَوَاهُ أَبُو حَازِمٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص‏ أَنَا فَرَطُكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ مَنْ وَرَدَ شَرِبَ وَ مَنْ شَرِبَ لَمْ يَظْمَأْ أَبَداً وَ لَيَرِدَنَّ عَلَيَّ أَقْوَامٌ أَعْرِفُهُمْ وَ يَعْرِفُونَنِي ثُمَّ يُحَالُ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَهُمْ

And his^-saww words, reported by Abu Hazim, from Sahl Bin Huneyf, from the Prophet^-saww: ‘I^-saww shall precede you all to the Fountain of drinking water, and who drinks will not be thirsty ever! And there will come a people, I^-saww shall recognise them and they would recognise me^-saww, then there will be a barrier between me^-saww and them’.

قَالَ أَبُو حَازِمٍ سَمِعَ النُّعْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ وَ أَنَا أُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتَ سَهْلًا يَقُولُ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَنَا أَشْهَدُ عَلَى أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ يَزِيدُ فِيهِ فَأَقُولُ إِنَّهُمْ أُمَّتِي فَيُقَالُ إِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي مَا عَمِلُوا بَعْدَكَ فَأَقُولُ سُحْقاً لِمَنْ بَدَّلَ بَعْدِي‏- ذَكَرَهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ

Abu Hazim said, ‘I heard Al-Numan Bin Abu Ayash and I narrate to the people with this Hadeeth’. He said, ‘Is that how you heard Sahl saying?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He said, ‘I testify upon Abu Saeed Al-Khudry Yazeed, therein is (He^-saww said): ‘I^-saww shall be saying: ‘They are my^-saww community’. It will be said, ‘You^-saww don’t know what they did after you^-saww’. I^-saww shall say: ‘Remoteness is for one who changed after me^-saww’. Al-Bukhari mentioned in the ‘Saheeh’’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ ص فِيمَا رَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ‏ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ لَمَّا أَتَتْ عَلَى الْحَوْأَبِ سَمِعَتْ نُبَاحَ الْكَلْبِ‏ فَقَالَتْ مَا أَظُنُّنِي إِلَّا رَاجِعَةً سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ص قَالَ لَنَا أَيَّتُكُنَّ تَنْبَحُ عَلَيْهَا كِلَابُ الْحَوْأَبِ فَقَالَ الزُّبَيْرُ لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُصْلِحَ بِكَ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ

And his^-saww words among what is reported by Sha’ba, from Ismail Bin Abu Khalid, from Qays Bin Abu Hazim that, when Ayesha came to Al-Hawab, she heard the barking of the dogs. She said, ‘I don’t think except that I should return. I heard the Prophet^-saww saying to us (wives): ‘Which one of you will the dogs of Al-Hawab bark upon?’ Al-Zubeyr said, ‘Perhaps Allah^-azwj will Effect reconciliation between the people through you’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ لِلزُّبَيْرِ لَمَّا لَقِيَهُ وَ عَلِيّاً ع فِي سَقِيفَةِ بَنِي سَاعِدَةَ فَقَالَ أَ تُحِبُّهُ يَا زُبَيْرُ قَالَ وَ مَا يَمْنَعُنِي قَالَ فَكَيْفَ بِكَ إِذَا قَاتَلْتَهُ وَ أَنْتَ ظَالِمٌ لَهُ

And his^-saww words to Al-Zubeyr when there would be a meeting between him and Ali^-asws in Saqifa of the clan of Sa’ada. He^-saww said: ‘Do you love him^-asws O Zubeyr?’ He said, ‘And what can prevent me?’ He^-saww said:’ Then how would be with you when you fight against him^-asws and you are an oppressor to him^-asws?’

وَ عَنْ أَبِي جِرْوَةَ الْمَازِنِيِّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيّاً يَقُولُ لِلزُّبَيْرِ نَشَدْتُكَ اللَّهَ أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يَقُولُ إِنَّكَ تُقَاتِلُنِي وَ أَنْتَ ظَالِمٌ‏ قَالَ بَلَى وَ لَكِنِّي نَسِيتُ

Abd from Abu Jarwah Al Mazny who said, ‘I heard Ali^-asws said to Al-Zubeyr: ‘We adjure you with Allah^-azwj! Did you not hear Rasool-Allah^-saww saying you will be fighting against me^-asws and you would be unjust?’ He said, ‘Yes, but I forgot’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ ص لِعَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ تَقْتُلُكَ الْفِئَةُ الْبَاغِيَةُ- أَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ‏

And his^-saww words to Ammar Bin Yasser^-ra: ‘The rebellious group will be killing you^-ra’. Muslim brought it out in the Saheeh’.

وَ عَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِ‏ أَنَّ عَمَّاراً أُتِيَ بِشَرْبَةٍ مِنْ لَبَنٍ فَضَحِكَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ مَا يُضْحِكُكَ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص أَخْبَرَنِي وَ قَالَ هُوَ آخَرُ شَرَابٍ أَشْرَبُهُ حِينَ أَمُوتُ

And from Abu Al-Bakhtary that Ammar^-ra came with a drink of milk, and he laughed. It was said to him, ‘What makes you laugh?’ He^-saww said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww informed me and said it would be the last drink I shall drink before I die’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ فِي الْخَوَارِجِ سَيَكُونُ فِي أُمَّتِي فِرْقَةٌ يُحْسِنُونَ الْقَوْلَ وَ يُسِيئُونَ الْفِعْلَ‏يَدْعُونَ إِلَى كِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَ لَيْسُوا مِنْهُ فِي شَيْ‏ءٍ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَرْتَدَّ عَلَى فَوْقِهِ هُمْ شَرُّ الْخَلْقِ وَ الْخَلِيقَةِ طُوبَى لِمَنْ قَتَلُوهُ طُوبَى لِمَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ وَ مَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ كَانَ أَوْلَى بِاللَّهِ مِنْهُمْ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَا سِيمَاهُمْ

And his^-saww words regarding the Kharijites: ‘There will come into being a sect in my^-saww community who will be good of words and evil of deeds. They will call to the Book of Allah^-azwj and they wouldn’t be in anything from it. They would be reciting the Quran and these will not exceed their throats. They will be passing through the Religion like the penetration of the arrow from the shooting, not returning to it until it rebounds upon its top. They are the evils of the creatures and morals. Beatitude is for one who kills him (Ibn Muljim) and beatitude is for one who kills them, and the one who kills them would be the foremost with Allah^-azwj from them’ – it is reported by Anas Bin Malik (well-known fabricator)

قَالَ التَّحْلِيقُ- رَوَاهُ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ

They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! What are their marks?’ He^-saww said: ‘The shaving of head’. It is reported by Anas Bin Malik (well- fabricator)’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ لِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيٍّ ع إِنَّ الْأُمَّةَ سَتَغْدِرُ بِكَ بَعْدِي

And his^-saww words to Amir Al-Momineen Ali^-asws: ‘The community will be treacherous with you^-asws after me^-saww’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ لَهُ ع تُقَاتِلُ بَعْدِي النَّاكِثِينَ وَ الْقَاسِطِينَ وَ الْمَارِقِينَ

And his^-saww words to him^-asws: ‘You^-asws will be fought after me^-saww by the breakers (of the allegiance), and the unjust and the renegades’.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِخْبَارُهُ بِقَتْلِ مُعَاوِيَةَ حُجْراً وَ أَصْحَابَهُ فِيمَا رَوَاهُ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ قَالَ: دَخَلَ مُعَاوِيَةُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى قَتَلَ أَهْلِ عَذْرَاءَ حُجْرٍ وَ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ قَتْلَهُمْ صَلَاحاً لِلْأُمَّةِ وَ بَقَاءَهُمْ فَسَاداً لِلْأُمَّةِ فَقَالَتْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ سَيُقْتَلُ بِعَذْرَاءَ نَاسٌ يَغْضَبُ اللَّهُ لَهُمْ وَ أَهْلُ السَّمَاءِ

And from that is his^-saww informing with the killing by Muawiya of Hujr and his companions among what is reported by Ibn Wahab, from Abu Lahey, from Abu Al-Aswad who said, ‘Muawiya came to Ayesha. She said, ‘What carried you upon killing the Azra’a, Hujr and his companions?’ He said, ‘O mother of the believers! I saw their killing as being correct for the community, and their remaining as being a spoiler of the community’. She said, ‘I heard Rasool-Allah^-saww saying: ‘There would be killed some people at Azara’a, Allah^-azwj Wrathful for them and so will the inhabitants of the sky’.

وَ رَوَى ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَرِيرٍ الْغَافِقِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيّاً ع يَقُولُ‏ يَا أَهْلَ الْعِرَاقِ سَيُقْتَلُ سَبْعَةُ نَفَرٍ بِعَذْرَاءَ مَثَلُهُمْ كَمَثَلِ أَصْحَابِ الْأُخْدُودِ فَقُتِلَ حُجْرُ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ وَ أَصْحَابُهُ

And it is reported by Ibn Lahiya, from Al-Haris Bin Yazeed, from Abdullah Bin Zubeyr Al-Gafiqy who said, ‘I heard Ali^-asws saying: ‘O people of Iraq! Seven persons would be killed at Azra’a, their example is like an example of the companions of the pit’. Hujr Bin Aday and his companions were killed’.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِخْبَارُهُ بِقَتْلِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع رَوَى أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحَافِظُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص اضْطَجَعَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ لِلنَّوْمِ فَاسْتَيْقَظَ وَ هُوَ خَاثِرٌ ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ فَرَقَدَ ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظَ وَ هُوَ خَاثِرٌ دُونَ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْهُ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُولَى ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ وَ اسْتَيْقَظَ وَ فِي يَدِهِ تُرْبَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ يُقَبِّلُهَا

And from that is his^-saww informing with the killing of Al-Husayn^-asws. It is reported by Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz, by his chain from Umm Salma^-ra that Rasool-Allah^-saww lied down that day for the sleep, and he^-saww woke up (suddenly) and he^-saww was heave of self. Then he^-saww lied down, then woke up and he^-saww was heavy of self besides what was seen from him^-saww the first time. Then he^-saww lied down, and woke up and in his^-saww hand was some red soil.

فَقُلْتُ مَا هَذِهِ التُّرْبَةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي جَبْرَئِيلُ ع أَنَّ هَذَا يُقْتَلُ بِأَرْضِ الْعِرَاقِ لِلْحُسَيْنِ ع‏ فَقُلْتُ يَا جَبْرَئِيلُ أَرِنِي تُرْبَةَ الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي يُقْتَلُ بِهَا فَهَذِهِ تُرْبَتُهَا

I said, ‘What is this soil, O Rasool-Allah^-saww?’ He^-saww said: ‘Jibraeel^-as informed me^-saww that this one will be killed in the land of Iraq, (meaning) Al-Husayn^-asws’. I^-saww said: ‘O Jibraeel^-as! Show me^-saww the soil of the land in which he^-asws will be killed’’. This is its soil’.

وَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: اسْتَأْذَنَ مَلَكُ الْمَطَرِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص فَأَذِنَ لَهُ فَقَالَ لِأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ احْفَظِي عَلَيْنَا الْبَابَ لَا يَدْخُلُ أَحَدٌ فَجَاءَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ع فَوَثَبَ‏ حَتَّى دَخَلَ فَجَعَلَ يَقَعُ عَلَى مَنْكِبِ النَّبِيِّ ص فَقَالَ الْمَلَكُ أَ تُحِبُّهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص نَعَمْ

And from Anas Bin Malik (a well-known fabricator) who said, ‘The Angel of rain sought permission to come to Rasool-Allah^-saww, and he^-saww permitted for him. He^-saww said to Umm Salma^-ra: ‘Guard the door upon us, not one should enter. Al-Husayn^-asws Bin Ali^-asws came and leapt until he^-asws entered and fell upon a shoulder of the Prophet^-saww. The Angel said: ‘Do you^-saww love him^-asws?’ The Prophet^-saww said: ‘Yes’.

قَالَ فَإِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ سَتَقْتُلُهُ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَرَيْتُكَ الْمَكَانَ الَّذِي يُقْتَلُ فِيهِ قَالَ فَضَرَبَ يَدَهُ فَأَرَاهُ تُرَاباً أَحْمَرَ فَأَخَذَتْهُ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ فَصَيَّرَتْهُ فِي طَرَفِ ثَوْبِهَا فَكُنَّا نَسْمَعُ أَنْ يُقْتَلَ بِكَرْبَلَاءَ

He said, ‘Your^-saww community will be killing him^-asws, and if you^-saww like I can show you the place which he^-asws will be killed in’. He struck his hand and showed him^-saww red soil. Umm Salma^-ra took it and made it to be on the side of her^-ra cloth. We hear that he^-asws would be killed at Kerbala’.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِخْبَارُهُ بِمَصَارِعِ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ص رَوَى الْحَاكِمُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحَافِظُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ سَيِّدِ الْعَابِدِينَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ: زَارَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَعَمِلْنَا لَهُ خَزِيرَةً وَ أَهْدَتْ إِلَيْهِ أُمُّ أَيْمَنَ قَعْباً مِنْ زُبْدٍ وَ صَحْفَةً مِنْ تَمْرٍ فَأَكَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ أَكَلْنَا مَعَهُ

And from that is his^-saww informing with the graves of his^-saww family members. It is reported by Al-Hakim Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz, by his chain, ‘From the chief of the worshippers Ali^-asws Bin Al-Husayn^-asws, for his^-asws father^-asws, from his^-asws grandfather^-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww visited us^-asws and we^-asws made for him^-saww Khazeera, and Umm Ayman^-ra presented a cup of butter to him^-saww and a bunch of dates. Rasool-Allah^-saww ate and we ate with him^-saww.

ثُمَّ وَضَّأْتُ‏ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص فَمَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ وَ وَجْهَهُ بِيَدِهِ وَ اسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ فَدَعَا اللَّهَ مَا شَاءَ ثُمَّ أَكَبَّ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ بِدُمُوعٍ غَزِيرَةٍ مِثْلِ الْمَطَرِ فَهَبْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ نَسْأَلَهُ فَوَثَبَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع فَأَكَبَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ يَا أَبَتِ رَأَيْتُكَ تَصْنَعُ مَا لَمْ تَصْنَعْ مِثْلَهُ قَطُّ

Then Rasool-Allah^-saww performed Wudu’u and wiped his^-saww head and his^-saww face with his^-saww hand, and faced towards the Qiblah and supplicated to Allah^-azwj whatever he^-saww so desired. Then he^-saww devoted to the ground with tears running like the rain. Rasool-Allah^-saww loved that we ask him^-saww. Al-Husayn^-asws leapt upon Rasool-Allah^-saww and said: ‘O father^-saww! I^-asws saw you^-saww do the like of which you^-saww have not done at all’.

قَالَ يَا بُنَيَّ سُرِرْتُ بِكُمُ الْيَوْمَ سُرُوراً لَمْ أُسَرَّ بِكُمْ مِثْلَهُ وَ إِنَّ حَبِيبِي جَبْرَئِيلَ أَتَانِي وَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّكُمْ قَتْلَى وَ مَصَارِعَكُمْ شَتَّى وَ أَحْزَنَنِي ذَلِكَ فَدَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ لَكُمْ بِالْخِيَرَةِ

He^-saww said: ‘O my^-saww son^-asws! I^-saww am cheerful with you all today with such joy I^-saww was not cheerful with you the like of it, and that my^-saww beloved Jibraeel^-as came to me^-saww and informed me^-saww that you^-asws will be killed and your^-asws graves would be diverse, and that grieved me^-saww. I supplicated to Allah^-azwj for you all with the good’.

فَقَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع فَمَنْ يَزُورُنَا عَلَى تَشَتُّتِنَا وَ تَبَعُّدِ قُبُورِنَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُرِيدُونَ بِهِ بِرِّي وَ صِلَتِي إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ زُرْتُهَا بِالْمَوْقِفِ وَ أَخَذْتُ بِأَعْضَادِهَا فَأَنْجَيْتُهَا مِنْ أَهْوَالِهِ وَ شَدَائِدِهِ

Al-Husayn^-asws said: ‘Who would visit us upon our^-asws diverse and remote graves?’ Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘A group from my^-saww community will be intending righteousness and connection with me^-saww. When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, I^-saww shall visit it (this group) at the Pausing Station, and grab their hands and rescue them from its horrors and its difficulties’’.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِخْبَارُهُ عَنْ قَتْلَى أَهْلِ الْحَرَّةِ فَكَانَ كَمَا أَخْبَرَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ قَالَ: خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فِي سَفَرٍ مِنْ أَسْفَارِهِ فَلَمَّا مَرَّ بِحَرَّةِ زُهْرَةَ وَقَفَ فَاسْتَرْجَعَ فَسَاءَ ذَلِكَ مَنْ مَعَهُ وَ ظَنُّوا أَنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَمْرِ سَفَرِهِمْ

And from that is his^-saww informing about the killing of the people of Al-Hira and it happened just as he^-saww had informed. It is reported from Ayoub Bin Bashir who said, ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww went out in a journey from his^-saww journeys. When he^-saww passed by Hira, Suhra, he^-saww paused and said ‘We are for Allah^-azwj and to Him^-azwj we are returning’. The ones with him^-saww did not like it, and they thought that it was from the matters of their journey.

فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَمَا إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَيْسَ مِنْ سَفَرِكُمْ قَالُوا فَمَا هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ يُقْتَلُ بِهَذِهِ الْحَرَّةِ خِيَارُ أُمَّتِي بَعْدَ أَصْحَابِي

Umar Bin Al-Khattab said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! What is that which you^-saww saw?’ Rasool-Allah^-saww! But, that isn’t from your journey’. They said, ‘Then what is it, O Rasool-Allah^-saww?’ He^-saww said: ‘There will be killed at this Hira the best of my^-saww community after my^-saww companions’.

قَالَ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قُتِلَ يَوْمَ الْحَرَّةِ سَبْعُمِائَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنْ حَمَلَةِ الْقُرْآنِ فِيهِمْ ثَلَاثَةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ص وَ كَانَ الْحَسَنُ يَقُولُ لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْحَرَّةِ قُتِلَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ حَتَّى كَادَ لَا يَنْفَلِتُ أَحَدٌ وَ كَانَ فِيمَنْ قُتِلَ ابْنَا زَيْنَبَ رَبِيبَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ هُمَا ابْنَا زَمْعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ وَ كَانَ وَقَعَتِ الْحَرَّةُ يَوْمَ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ لِثَلَاثٍ بَقِينَ مِنْ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ سَنَةَ ثَلَاثٍ وَ سِتِّينَ

Anas Bin Malik (the famous fabricator) said, ‘Seven hundred men were killed on the day of Al-Hira, from the bearers of the Quran, among them were three of the companions of the Prophet^-saww, and Al-Hassan^-asws said: ‘When it was the day of Al-Hira the people of Medina were killed until almost no one escaped, and among the ones kill were two sons of Zaynab nourished by Rasool-Allah^-saww, and they were two sons of Zam’at Bin Abdullah Bin Al-Aswad, and the event of Al-Hira occurred on the day of Wednesday of three days remaining from Zul Hijja in the year sixty three (A.H.)’.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ ص فِي ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ لَنْ يَمُوتَ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ بَصَرُهُ وَ يُؤْتَى عِلْماً فَكَانَ كَمَا

And from that are his^-saww words regarding Ibn Abbas: ‘He will never die until his sight is gone and is given knowledge’, and it happened just as he^-saww had said.

قَالَ وَ قَوْلُهُ فِي زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ وَ قَدْ عَادَهُ مِنْ مَرَضٍ كَانَ بِهِ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ مَرَضِكَ بَأْسٌ وَ لَكِنْ كَيْفَ بِكَ إِذَا عُمِّرْتَ بَعْدِي فَعَمِيتَ قَالَ إِذاً أَحْتَسِبَ وَ أَصْبِرَ قَالَ إِذاً تَدْخُلَ‏ الْجَنَّةَ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ

And his^-saww words regarding Zayd Bin Arqam he^-saww had consoled him from an illness which was with him: ‘There is no problem upon you from your illness, but how would it be with you when you live after me^-saww and I^-saww shall pass away?’ He said, ‘Then I shall calculate and observe patience’. He^-saww said: ‘Then you shall enter Paradise without any Reckoning’.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ فِي الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ قَالَ: وُلِدَ لِأَخِي أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ مِنْ أُمِّهَا غُلَامٌ فَسَمَّوْهُ الْوَلِيدَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص تُسَمُّونَ بِأَسْمَاءِ فَرَاعِنَتِكُمْ غَيِّرُوا اسْمَهُ فَسَمُّوهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّهُ سَيَكُونُ فِي هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ الْوَلِيدُ لَهُوَ شَرٌّ لِأُمَّتِي مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ لِقَوْمِهِ

And from that are his^-saww words regarding Al-Waleed Bin Yazeed Al-Awzaie, from Al-Zuhry, from Saeed Bin Al-Musayyab who said, ‘A boy was for a brother of Umm Salma^-ra, from her^-ra mother’s side, and they named him as Al-Waleed. The Prophet^-saww said: ‘You are naming him with names of your Pharaohs. Change his name and name him as ‘Abdullah’, for there will happen to be a man from the community called Al-Waleed. He would be evil for my^-saww community from Pharaohs of his people.

قَالَ فَكَانَ النَّاسُ يَرَوْنَ أَنَّهُ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ ثُمَّ رَأَيْنَا أَنَّهُ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ

He (the narrator) said, ‘The people were reporting that he is Al-Waleed Bin Abdul Malik. Then we saw that it was Al-Waleed Bin Yazeed.

وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ ص فِي بَنِي أَبِي الْعَاصِ وَ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ رَوَى أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيُّ عَنْهُ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ: إِذَا بَلَغَ بَنُو أَبِي الْعَاصِ ثَلَاثِينَ رَجُلًا اتَّخَذُوا دِينَ اللَّهِ دَغَلًا وَ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ خَوَلًا وَ مَالَ اللَّهِ دُوَلًا- وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَرْبَعِينَ رَجُلًا

And from that are his^-saww words regarding the clan of Abu Al Aas and the clan of Umayya. It is reported by Abu Saeed Al-Khudry from him^-saww having said: ‘When the clan of Abu Al-Aas reached thirty men, they took the Religion of Allah^-azwj for corruption, and the servants of Allah^-azwj as slaves, and wealth of Allah^-azwj as their own’. And in a report of Abu Hureyra, ‘Forty men’.

ابْنُ مُرْهِبٍ قَالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ مَرْوَانُ يُكَلِّمُهُ فِي حَاجَتِهِ فَقَالَ اقْضِ حَاجَتِي فَوَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ مَئُونَتِي لَعَظِيمَةٌ وَ إِنِّي أَبُو عَشَرَةٍ وَ عَمُّ عَشَرَةٍ وَ أَخُو عَشَرَةٍ فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ مَرْوَانُ وَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ جَالِسٌ مَعَهُ عَلَى السَّرِيرِ فَقَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ أَشْهَدُ بِاللَّهِ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَ مَا تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِذَا بَلَغَ بَنُو الْحَكَمِ ثَلَاثِينَ رَجُلًا اتَّخَذُوا مَالَ اللَّهِ بَيْنَهُمْ دُوَلًا وَ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ خَوَلًا وَ دِينَ اللَّهِ دَغَلًا فَإِذَا بَلَغُوا تِسْعَةً وَ تِسْعِينَ وَ أَرْبَعَمِائَةٍ كَانَ هَلَاكُهُمْ أَسْرَعَ‏ مِنْ لَوْكِ‏ تَمْرَةٍ

Ibn Marhab said, ‘I was in the presence of Muawiya Bin Abu Sufyan and Marwan came to him to speak to him regarding his need. He said, ‘Fulfil my need for by Allah^-azwj, my assistance is great, and I am a father of ten and an uncle of ten, and brother of ten’. When Mawan turned around and Ibn Abbas saw with him upon the throne, Muawiya said, ‘I testify with Allah^-azwj, O Ibn Abbas! Do you not know that Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘When the clan of Al-Hakam reach thirty men, they will take the wealth between them as their own, and servants of Allah^-azwj as slaves, and Religion of Allah^-azwj for corruption, so when they reach four hundred and ninety nine, their destruction would be quicker than the chewing of dates?’’

فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ وَ تَرَكَ مَرْوَانُ حَاجَةً لَهُ‏ فَرَدَّ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ إِلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ فَكَلَّمَهُ فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ قَالَ أَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَ مَا تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ذَكَرَ هَذَا فَقَالَ أَبُو الْجَبَابِرَةِ الْأَرْبَعَةُ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ

Ibn Abbas said, ‘O Allah^-azwj, yes!’ And Marwan neglected a need of his and Abdul Malik returned to Muawiya and spoke to him. When Abdul Malik turned around, he said, ‘I adjure you with Allah^-azwj, O Ibn Abbas! Do you not know that Rasool-Allah^-saww mentioned this saying: ‘The tyrants are four’. Ibn Abbas said, ‘O Allah^-azwj, yes!’

يُوسُفُ بْنُ مَازِنٍ الرَّاسِبِيُّ قَالَ: قَامَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع فَقَالَ يَا مُسَوِّدَ وَجْهِ الْمُؤْمِنِ فَقَالَ الْحَسَنُ لَا تُؤَبِّنَنِّي‏ رَحِمَكَ اللَّهُ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص رَأَى بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ يَخْطُبُونَ عَلَى مِنْبَرِهِ رَجُلًا فَرَجُلًا فَسَاءَهُ ذَلِكَ

Yusuf Bin Mazin Al-Rasiby said, ‘A man stood up to Al-Hassan^-asws Bin Ali^-asws and said, ‘O one who blackened the face of the Momin!’ Al-Hassan^-asws said: ‘Do not fault me^-asws, may Allah^-azwj have Mercy on you, for Rasool-Allah^-saww said that he^-saww saw the clan of Umayya addressing upon his^-saww pulpit’. A man so be it a man. He^-saww did not like that so it was Revealed: Indeed, We Gave you Al-Kausar [108:1] (Surah Al-Kausar) – Al-Kawser being a river in Paradise. 

فَنَزَلَتْ‏ إِنَّا أَعْطَيْناكَ الْكَوْثَرَ الْكَوْثَرُ نَهَرٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ نَزَلَتْ‏ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْناهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ وَ ما أَدْراكَ ما لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ يَعْنِي أَلْفَ شَهْرٍ تَمْلِكُهُ بَنُو أُمَيَّةَ فَحَسَبْنَا ذَلِكَ فَإِذَا هُوَ لَا يَزِيدُ وَ لَا يَنْقُصُ

And it was Revealed: Surely, We Revealed it during the Night of Pre-determination [97:1] And what make you realise what the Night of Pre-determination is? [97:2] The Night of Pre-determination is better than a thousand months [97:3] – meaning a thousand month of the rule of the clan of Umayya. We calculated that, and there it neither increased not reduced.

والروايات في هذا الفن من الآيات كثيرة لا يتسع لذكر جميعها هذا الكتاب، وفيما أوردناه منها كفاية لذوي الالباب.

And the reports regarding this type are a lot, this book is not capacious for mentioned all of them, and among what we reported from these is sufficient for the ones of understanding’’.[162]

‘Al Kafi’ – A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ibn Raib, from Muhammad Bin Qays who said,

‘I heard Abu Ja’far^-asws saying, and he^-asws was narrating to the people in Makkah: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww prayed the Fajr Salaat, then sat along with his^-saww companions until the sun emerged. The man after the man arose until there did not remain with him^-saww anyone except for two men, one from the ‘Helpers’ and one from ‘Saqeef’. Rasool-Allah^-saww said to them both: ‘I^-saww know that there is a need for the two of you that you would like to ask about it. If you two want I^-saww can inform both of you before you even ask me^-saww, and if you want you can both ask me yourselves about it’.

قَالا بَلْ تُخْبِرُنَا قَبْلَ أَنْ نَسْأَلَكَ عَنْهَا فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ أَجْلَى لِلْعَمَى وَ أَبْعَدُ مِنَ الِارْتِيَابِ وَ أَثْبَتُ لِلْإِيمَانِ

They both said, ‘But, inform us before we ask you about it, for that is more clarifying for the blindness, and more remote from the doubts, and more affirming for the faith’.

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا أَخَا ثَقِيفٍ فَإِنَّكَ جِئْتَ تَسْأَلُنِي عَنْ وُضُوئِكَ وَ صَلَاتِكَ مَا لَكَ فِي ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ أَمَّا وُضُوؤُكَ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا وَضَعْتَ يَدَكَ فِي إِنَائِكَ‏ ثُمَّ قُلْتَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ تَنَاثَرَتْ مِنْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبْتَ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ

Rasool-Allah^-saww said: ‘As for you, O brother of Saqeef, so you came over to ask me^-saww about your Ablution (Wudu’u) and your Salaat, what there is for you regarding that from the goodness. As for your Ablution (Wudu’u), so you, when you place your hand into your container, then you say, ‘In the Name of Allah^-azwj’, there scatter from it what you accumulated from the sins.

فَإِذَا غَسَلْتَ وَجْهَكَ تَنَاثَرَتِ الذُّنُوبُ الَّتِي اكْتَسَبَتْهَا عَيْنَاكَ بِنَظَرِهَا وَ فُوكَ فَإِذَا غَسَلْتَ ذِرَاعَكَ‏ تَنَاثَرَتِ الذُّنُوبُ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ وَ شِمَالِكَ فَإِذَا مَسَحْتَ رَأْسَكَ وَ قَدَمَيْكَ تَنَاثَرَتِ الذُّنُوبُ الَّتِي مَشَيْتَ إِلَيْهَا عَلَى قَدَمَيْكَ فَهَذَا لَكَ فِي وُضُوئِكَ‏

When you wash your face, the sins which your eyes had accumulated with their looks, scatter away from you and are lost. When you wash your arms, the sins which your right hand and your left hand had accumulated, scatter away from you. When you wipe your head and your feet, the sins which you walked towards upon your feet scatter away from you. This is for you from your Ablution (Wudu’u)’’.[163]

38- كا، الكافي الْعِدَّةُ عَنْ سَهْلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عُمَرَ أَخِي عُذَافِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص ضَلَّتْ نَاقَتُهُ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ فِيهَا يُخْبِرُنَا عَنِ السَّمَاءِ وَ لَا يُخْبِرُنَا عَنْ نَاقَتِهِ

‘Al Kafi’ – The number of companions, from Sahl, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Hameed, from Yunus Bin yaqoub, from Umar brother of Azafar,

‘From Abu Abdullah^-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah^-saww, his^-saww came was lost, and the people said regarding it, ‘He^-saww informs us about the sky and cannot inform us about his^-saww camel?’

فَهَبَطَ عَلَيْهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ نَاقَتُكَ فِي وَادِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا مَلْفُوفٌ خِطَامُهَا بِشَجَرَةِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا

Jibraeel^-as descended unto him^-saww and said: ‘O Muhammad^-saww! Your^-saww camel is in such and such valley, its rein is wrapped in such and such tree’.

قَالَ فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَ أَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَ قَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَكْثَرْتُمْ عَلَيَّ فِي نَاقَتِي أَلَا وَ مَا أَعْطَانِي اللَّهُ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا أُخِذَ مِنِّي أَلَا وَ إِنَّ نَاقَتِي فِي وَادِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا مَلْفُوفٌ خِطَامُهَا بِشَجَرَةِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَابْتَدَرَهَا النَّاسُ فَوَجَدُوهَا كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص‏

He^-asws said: ‘He^-saww ascended the pulpit and praised Allah^-azwj and extolled upon Him^-azwj and said: ‘O you people! You have spoken a lot about my^-saww camel. Indeed, and what Allah^-azwj has Given me^-saww is better than what is taken from me^-saww. Indeed, and my^-saww camel is in such and such valley, its rein is wrapped around such and such tree’. The people rushed to it and found it to be just as Rasool-Allah^-saww had said’’.[164]

39- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب الزُّبَيْرِيُّ وَ الشَّعْبِيُ‏ أَنَّ قَيْصَرَ حَارَبَ كِسْرَى فَكَانَ هَوَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ مَعَ قَيْصَرَ لِأَنَّهُ صَاحِبُ كِتَابٍ وَ مِلَّةٍ وَ أَشَدُّ تَعْظِيماً لِأَمْرِ النَّبِيِّ ص وَ كَانَ وَضَعَ كِتَابَهُ عَلَى عَيْنِهِ وَ أَمَرَ كِسْرَى بِتَمْزِيقِهِ حِينَ أَتَاهُمَا كِتَابَهُ يَدْعُوهُمَا إِلَى الْحَقِّ

‘Al-Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashoub – Al-Zubeyri and Al-Shabi, ‘Caesa battled Chosroe and the Muslims inclined with Caesar because he was a person of the Book (Christian) and Religion and intense reverence for the matter of the Prophet^-saww, and he had placed his^-saww letter upon his eyes, while the matter of Chosroe was with shredding it when his^-saww letter came to him, calling both of them to the Truth.

فَلَمَّا كَثُرَ الْكَلَامُ بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ قَرَأَ الرَّسُولُ‏ الم غُلِبَتِ الرُّومُ‏ الْآيَةَ ثُمَّ حَدَّدَ الْوَقْتَ فِي قَوْلِهِ‏ فِي بِضْعِ سِنِينَ‏ ثُمَّ آكَدَهُ فِي قَوْلِهِ‏ وَعْدَ اللَّهِ‏ فَغَلَبُوا يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَ بَنَوُا الرُّومِيَّةَ

When the speech between the Muslims and Polytheists was a lot, the Rasool^-saww recited: Alif Lam Meem [30:1] – the Verse. Then there was a limitation of the timing in His^-azwj Words: Within a few years [30:4], then Emphasised it, A Promise of Allah! [30:6]. They overcame on the day of Hudaybiyya and built (the city of) Al-Rowmiya (the ruined city)’.

وَ رُوِيَ عَنْهُ لِفَارِسَ نَطْحَةٌ أَوْ نَطْحَتَانِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَا فَارِسَ بَعْدَهَا أَبَداً وَ الرُّومُ ذَاتُ الْقُرُونِ كُلَّمَا ذَهَبَ قَرْنٌ خَلْفَ قَرْنٍ هَبْهَبَ إِلَى آخِرِ الْأَبَدِ

And it is reported from him^-saww  for a horse, one horn or two. Then said: ‘There is no horse after it, ever, and Rome is with generations. Every time a generation is gone, a generation replaces up to the end, forever’.

قَتَادَةُ وَ جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ‏ فِي قَوْلِهِ‏ وَ إِنَّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتابِ لَمَنْ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ‏ نَزَلَتْ فِي النَّجَاشِيِّ لَمَّا مَاتَ نَعَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَجَمَعَ النَّاسَ فِي الْبَقِيعِ وَ كُشِفَ لَهُ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ فَأَبْصَرَ سَرِيرَ النَّجَاشِيِّ وَ صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ

Qatadah and Jabir Bin Abdullah regarding His^-azwj Words: And from the People of the Book there is one who believes in Allah [3:199], was Revealed regarding Al-Najashy. When he died, Jibraeel^-as gave his news to the Prophet^-saww. The people gathered in Al-Baqie and it was uncovered for him from Medina to the land of Ethiopia, and he^-saww saw the throne of bed of Al-Najashy and prayed Salat upon him.

فَقَالَتِ الْمُنَافِقُونَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَجَاءَتِ الْأَخْبَارُ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ أَنَّهُ مَاتَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ وَ مَا عَلِمَ هِرَقْلُ بِمَوْتِهِ إِلَّا مِنْ تُجَّارٍ رَأَوْا مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ

The hypocrites spoke regarding that (doubting), then came the news from every side that he had indeed died during that day during that time, and Harqal did not know of his death except from traders reporting from Al-Medina.

الْكَلْبِيُ‏ فِي قَوْلِهِ‏ فَشُدُّوا الْوَثاقَ‏ نَزَلَتْ فِي الْعَبَّاسِ لَمَّا أُسِرَ فِي يَوْمِ بَدْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص افْدِ نَفْسَكَ وَ ابْنَيْ أَخِيكَ يَعْنِي عَقِيلًا وَ نَوْفَلًا وَ حَلِيفَكَ يَعْنِي عُتْبَةَ بْنَ أَبِي جَحْدَرٍ فَإِنَّكَ ذُو مَالٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْقَوْمَ اسْتَكْرَهُونِي وَ لَا مَالَ عِنْدِي

Al-Kalby regarding His^-azwj Words: so tighten the bond [47:4], ‘It was Revealed regarding Al-Abbas when he was captured during the day of (battle of) Badr. The Prophet^-saww said to him: ‘Ransom yourself and sons of your brother – meaning Aqeel and Nowfal, and your ally, meaning Otbah Bin Abu Jahdar, for you are with wealth’. He said, ‘The people dislike me and there is no wealth with me’.

قَالَ فَأَيْنَ الْمَالُ الَّذِي وَضَعْتَهُ بِمَكَّةَ عِنْدَ أُمِّ الْفَضْلِ حِينَ خَرَجْتَ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَكُمَا أَحَدٌ وَ قُلْتَ إِنْ أَصَبْتُ فِي سَفَرِي فَلِلْفَضْلِ كَذَا وَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ كَذَا وَ لِقُثَمَ كَذَا قَالَ وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً مَا عَلِمَ بِهَذَا أَحَدٌ غَيْرُهَا وَ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ إِنَّكَ لَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَفَدَى نَفْسَهُ بِمِائَةِ أُوقِيَّةٍ وَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ بِمِائَةِ أُوقِيَّةٍ

He^-saww said: ‘Where is the wealth which you place in Makkah with Umm Al-Fazal when you came out? And there was no one else with you two and you said, ‘If I die during my journey, then such and such is for Al-Fazal, and such and such is for Abdullah, and such and such is for Qasam’. He said, ‘By the One^-azwj Who Sent you^-saww with the Truth! No one knows of this apart from her, and I know (now) that you are a Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj’. Then he ransomed himself with one hundred ounces (of gold), and each one (of them) for one hundred ounces (of gold).

فَنَزَلَ‏ يا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِمَنْ فِي أَيْدِيكُمْ مِنَ الْأَسْرى‏ الْآيَةَ فَكَانَ الْعَبَّاسُ يَقُولُ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَ صَدَقَ رَسُولُهُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ مَعِي عِشْرُونَ أُوقِيَّةً فَأُخِذَتْ فَأَعْطَانِي اللَّهُ مَكَانَهَا عِشْرِينَ عَبْداً كُلٌّ مِنْهُمْ يُضْرَبُ‏ بِمَالٍ كَثِيرٍ أَدْنَاهُمْ يُضْرَبُ بِعِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ

It was Revealed: O you Prophet! Say to the ones in your hand from the captives: [8:70] – the Verse. Al-Abbas was saying, ‘Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww spoke the truth, for there were twenty ounces (of gold) with me and these were seized, and Allah^-azwj Gave me twenty slaves in its place, each of them earned a lot of wealth, the lowest of them earned twenty thousand Dirhams’.

وَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع‏ بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فِي الْمَسْجِدِ إِذْ قَالَ قُمْ يَا فُلَانُ قُمْ يَا فُلَانُ حَتَّى أَخْرَجَ خَمْسَةَ نَفَرٍ فَقَالَ اخْرُجُوا مِنْ مَسْجِدِنَا لَا تُصَلُّونَ فِيهِ وَ أَنْتُمْ لَا تُزَكُّونَ

And Abu Ja’far^-asws said: ‘While Rasool-Allah^-saww was in the Masjid when he^-saww said: ‘Arise, O so and so! Arise, O so and so!’ Until he^-saww expelled fiver persons. He^-saww said: ‘Get out from our Masjid. Do not pray Salat in it and you are not cleaning’.

وَ حُكْمُهُ‏ لَتَدْخُلُنَّ الْمَسْجِدَ الْحَرامَ‏ وَ فِيهِ حَدِيثُ عُمَرَ وَ مِثْلُ حُكْمِهِ عَلَى الْيَهُودِ أَنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَتَمَنَّوُا الْمَوْتَ‏ فَعَجَزُوا عَنْهُ وَ هُمْ مُكَلَّفُونَ مُخْتَارُونَ وَ يَقْرَأُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ فِي‏ سُورَةٍ يُقْرَأُ بِهَا فِي جَوَامِعِ الْإِسْلَامِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ جَهْراً تَعْظِيماً لِلْآيَةِ الَّتِي فِيهَا

And his^-saww ruling: You will be entering the Sacred Masjid [48:27], and in it is Hadeeth of Umar, and like his^-saww ruling upon the Jews that they will never be wishing for the death. They were frustrated from him^-saww and they were encumbered, given a choice, and he^-saww recited this Verse (of Surah Jummah), reciting it in the entirety of Islam (Muslims) on the day of Friday loudly in reverence to the Verses which are in it.

وَ حُكْمُهُ عَلَى أَهْلِ نَجْرَانَ أَنَّهُمْ لَوْ بَاهَلُوا لَأُضْرِمَ الْوَادِي عَلَيْهِمْ نَاراً فَامْتَنَعُوا وَ عَلِمُوا صِحَّةَ قَوْلِهِ وَ نَحْوُ قَوْلِهِ‏ فَسَوْفَ يَكُونُ لِزاماً وَ قَوْلِهِ‏ يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ الْبَطْشَةَ الْكُبْرى‏

And his^-saww ruling upon the people of Najran, if they were to imprecate the valley would kindle fire upon them, so they refused and knew the correctness of his^-saww words; and approximate to His^-azwj Words: so soon the inevitable would happen [25:77]; and His^-azwj Words: On the Day when We will Seize (them) with a mighty Seizure, [44:16].

وَ رُوِيَ‏ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا عَلَى تَبُوكَ فَقَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ تَهُبُّ رِيحٌ عَظِيمَةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ فَلَا يَقُومَنَّ أَحَدُكُمُ اللَّيْلَةَ فَهَاجَتِ الرِّيحُ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَحَمَلَتْهُ الرِّيحُ فَأَلْقَتْهُ بِجَبَلِ طَيِّئٍ

And it is reported that they were at Tabuk and he^-saww said to his^-saww companions: ‘Tonight a mighty severe wind would blow, so not one of you should be standing tonight’. The wind blew, and a man from the people stood up, and the wind carried him and threw him at mount Taie.

He^-saww said: ‘How would it be with you, O Suraqa, when you wear a bracelet of Chosroe after me^-saww?’ When Persia was conquered, he^-saww called Umar and made him wear a bracelet of Chosroe.

وَ قَوْلُهُ ص لِسَلْمَانَ سَيُوضَعُ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ تَاجُ كِسْرَى فَوُضِعَ التَّاجُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ عِنْدَ الْفَتْحِ

Then he^-saww mentioned in it the reverence of Salman^-ra up to the point he^-saww said: ‘And it has been raised from them, the segment of the forelock, and the taxes, and the fifth, and the tenth, and the rest of the supplies and the handouts. If they ask you then give them, and if they seek help with you, then help them, and if they seek employment with you then employ them, and if they wrong you then be forgiving to them, and if someone does harm to them then prevent him from them, and let them be given from the Muslim public treasury one hundred garments every year and one hundred ounces (of gold), for Salman^-ra is deserving of that from Rasool-Allah^-saww’.

ثُمَّ دَعَا لِمَنْ عَمِلَ بِهِ وَ دَعَا عَلَى مَنْ أَذَاهُمْ وَ كَتَبَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَ الْكِتَابُ إِلَى الْيَوْمِ فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ وَ يَعْمَلُ الْقَوْمُ بِرَسْمِ النَّبِيِّ ص فَلَوْ لَا ثِقَتُهُ بِأَنَّ دِينَهُ يُطْبِقُ الْأَرْضَ لَكَانَ كَتْبُهُ هَذَا السِّجِلَّ مُسْتَحِيلًا

Then he^-saww supplicated for the one who worked with it and supplicated against the one who harm them. And it was written by Ali^-asws Bin Abu Talib^-asws, and the letter is in their hands up to today, and the people act in accordance with the ritual of the Prophet^-saww. And had it not been for the confidence that his^-saww Religion would be applicable in the earth, the recording of this letter would have been impossible.

و كتب نحوه لأهل تميم الداري من محمد رسول الله للداريين إذا أعطاه الله الأرض وهبت لهم بيت عين و صرين‏ و بيت إبراهيم

And he^-saww wrote approximately to it for the people of Tameem Al-Dary: ‘From Muhammad^-saww, Rasool^-saww of Allah^-azwj, to the people of Dary. When Allah^-azwj Gave him^-saww the land, he^-saww gifted to them the houses between Ayn and Sareyn, and house of Ibrahim.

و كتب ص للعباس الحيرة من الكوفة و الميدان من الشام و الخط من هجر و مسيرة ثلاثة أيام من أرض اليمن فلما افتتح ذلك أتى به إلى عمر فقال هذا مال كثير القصة

And he^-saww wrote for Al-Abbas, Al-Hira from Al-Kufa, and Al-Maydan from Syria, and Al-Khat from Hajar, and a travel distance of three days from the land of Yemen. When that was conquered, he came with it to Umar. He said, ‘This is a lot of wealth’ – the story.

و من العجائب الموجودة تدبيره ص أمر دينه بأشياء قبل حاجته إليها مثل وضعه‏المواقيت للحج و وضع عمرة و المسلخ و بطن العقيق ميقاتا لأهل العراق و لا عراق يومئذ و الجحفة لأهل الشام و ليس به من يحج يومئذ و من أصغى إلى ما نقل عنه علم أن الأولين و الآخرين يعجزون عن أمثالها و أن ذلك لا يتصور إلا أن يكون من الوحي و التنزيل

And from the existing wonders is his^-saww arrangement of the matter of his^-saww Religion with things before there being need to it – like his^-saww dropping the junctures (Meeqats) for the Hajj, and dropping Umrah, and Al-Maslakh and Batan Al-Aqeeq as being two junctures for the people of Iraq, and in those days there was no Iraq, and Al-Juhfa for the people of Syria, and there was no one performing Hajj with it in those days, and one who listened to what knowledge was transmitted from him^-saww that the former ones and the latter ones were frustrated from its like, and that cannot be imagined except it would happen to be from the Revelation and the descent (news from the sky).

و قَوْلُهُ ص‏ زُوِيَتْ‏ لِيَ الْأَرْضُ فَأُرِيتُ مَشَارِقَهَا وَ مَغَارِبَهَا وَ سَيَبْلُغُ مُلْكُ أُمَّتِي مَا زُوِيَ لِي مِنْهَا فَصَدَقَ فِي خَبَرِهِ فَقَدْ مَلَكَهُمْ مِنْ أَوَّلِ الْمَشْرِقِ إِلَى آخِرِ الْمَغْرِبِ مِنْ بَحْرِ الْأَنْدُلُسِ وَ بِلَادِ الْبَرْبَرِ وَ لَمْ يَتَّسِعُوا فِي الْجَنُوبِ وَ لَا فِي الشِّمَالِ كَمَا أَخْبَرَ ص سَوَاءً بِسَوَاءٍ

And his^-saww words: ‘The land was gathered for me^-saww and I^-saww saw its east and its west, and the reach of the kingdom of my^-saww community what was gathered for me^-saww from it’. He^-saww was ratified regarding his^-saww informing for their kingdom was from the beginning of the east to the end of the west, from the sea of Andalusia (Spain) to the Berber lands and did not strive in the south nor in the north just as he^-saww had informed, same to same.

وَ قَوْلُهُ لِعَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ لَا يَمْنَعُكَ مِنْ هَذَا الدِّينِ الَّذِي تَرَى مِنْ جَهْدِ أَهْلِهِ وَ ضَعْفِ أَصْحَابِهِ فَلَكَأَنَّهُمْ بَيْضَاءُ الْمَدَائِنِ قَدْ فُتِحَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ كَأَنَّهُمْ بِالظَّعِينَةِ تَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْحِيرَةِ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَ مَكَّةَ بِغَيْرِ خِفَارٍ وَ لَا تَخَافُ إِلَّا اللَّهَ فَأَبْصَرَ عَدِيٌّ ذَلِكَ كُلَّهُ

And his^-saww words to Ady Bin Hatim: ‘Do not be prevented from this Religion by that which you see from the rejection of its people and the weakness of its companions, for it is as if white cities have been opened up for them, and as if they are with the female rider with a carriage coming out from Al-Hira until she comes to Makkah without security, and you should not fear except Allah^-azwj’. Aday saw all of that.

وَ قَوْلُهُ ص لِخَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ وَ قَدْ بَعَثَهُ إِلَى أُكَيْدِرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ مَلِكِ كِنْدَةَ وَ كَانَ نَصْرَانِيّاً سَتَجِدُهُ يَصِيدُ الْبَقَرَ فَخَرَجَ حَتَّى كَانَ مِنْ حِصْنِهِ بِمَنْظَرِ الْعَيْنِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مُقْمِرَةٍ صَائِفَةٍ وَ هُوَ عَلَى سَطْحٍ لَهُ وَ مَعَهُ امْرَأَتُهُ فَبَاتَتِ الْبَقَرُ تَخُدُّ بِقُرُونِهَا بَابَ الْقَصْرِ فَقَالَتْ هَلْ رَأَيْتَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ قَطُّ قَالَ لَا وَ اللَّهِ قَالَتْ فَمَنْ بِتَرْكِ‏ هَذَا قَالَ لَا أَحَدَ ‏

And his^-saww words to Khalid Bin Al-Waleed, and he^-saww had sent him to Akeydar Bin Abdul Malik, king of Kindah, and he was a Christian: ‘You will find him hunting a cow’. He went out until he was in sight of his fortress during a moonlit night, clear, and he was upon a roof of his and with him was his wife. The cow knocked the door of the castle with its horns. She said, ‘Have you ever seen the like of that at all?’ He said, ‘No, by Allah^-azwj!’ She said, ‘Who is there with this?’ He said, ‘There is no one’.

فَنَزَلَ وَ رَكِبَ عَلَى فَرَسِهِ وَ مَعَهُ نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ فِيهِمْ أَخٌ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ حَسَّانُ وَ بَعَثَ بِهِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ أَنْشَدَ فِي ذَلِكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي طَيِّئٍ.

He descended and rode upon his horse and with him were a number of his family members, among them was a brother of his call Hasaan. And he sent a message to Rasool-Allah^-saww and a man from the clan of Taie prosed a poem regarding that, ‘Blessed is the driver of the cattle, for indeed I have seen Allah guiding every guide. Whoever turns away from the one of Tabuk, then indeed we have been commanded to engage in jihad’.

وَ قَوْلُهُ لِكِنَانَةَ زَوْجِ صَفِيَّةَ وَ الرَّبِيعِ أَيْنَ آنِيَتُكُمَا الَّتِي كُنْتُمَا تُعِيرَانِهَا أَهْلَ مَكَّةَ قَالا هُزِمْنَا فَلَمْ تَزَلْ تَضَعُنَا أَرْضٌ وَ تَقِلُّنَا أَرْضٌ أُخْرَى وَ أَنْفَقْنَاهَا فَقَالَ لَهُمَا إِنَّكُمَا إِنْ كَتَمْتُمَا شَيْئاً فَاطَّلَعْتُ عَلَيْهِ اسْتَحْلَلْتُ دِمَاءَكُمَا وَ ذَرَارِيَّكُمَا قَالا نَعَمْ

And his^-saww words to Kanana husband of Safiya and Al-Rabie: ‘When are your supporters which you were faulting the people of Makkah?’ They said, ‘We are defeated. We have not ceased to lose a land and given another land and lost it’. He^-saww said to them: ‘You, if you were to conceal anything, and I^-saww were to notify upon it, will your blood and your offspring be legalised?’ They said, ‘Yes’.

فَدَعَا رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ إِلَى قَرَاحِ‏ كَذَا وَ كَذَا ثُمَّ ائْتِ النَّخِيلَ فَانْظُرْ نَخْلَةً عَنْ يَمِينِكَ وَ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ وَ انْظُرْ نَخْلَةً مَرْفُوعَةً فَأْتِنِي بِمَا فِيهَا فَانْطَلَقَ فَجَاءَ بِالْآنِيَةِ وَ الْأَمْوَالِ فَضَرَبَ عُنُقَهُمَا

He^-saww called a man from the Helpers and said: ‘Go to such and such barren land, then go to such and palm trees. Then look on your right and on your left, and look at a high palm tree, and bring to me^-saww whatever is therein’. He went and came with the containers and the wealth. He^-saww struck off their necks (of idols).

And Al-Jaroud Bin Amro Al Abdy, and Salma Bin Abad Al Azdy said, ‘If you^-saww are a Prophet^-saww then narrated to us what we have come to ask you^-saww about’. He^-saww said: ‘As for you, O Jaroud, you have come to ask me^-saww about blood of the pre-Islamic period, and about vows of Islam and about the prevention’. He said, ‘You are correct’.  He^-saww said: ‘The blood of the pre-Islamic period is dropped, and its vow is that Islam will not increase it except difficulty, and there is no vow in Islam, and from the superior of the charities is that you confer upon your brother the back of the riding animal and milk of the sheep’.

وَ أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبَّادٍ فَجِئْتَ تَسْأَلُنِي عَنْ عِبَادَةِ الْأَوْثَانِ وَ يَوْمِ السَّبَاسِبِ وَ عَقْلِ الْهَجِينِ أَمَّا عِبَادَةُ الْأَوْثَانِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ يَقُولُ‏ إِنَّكُمْ وَ ما تَعْبُدُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ‏ الْآيَةَ وَ أَمَّا يَوْمُ السَّبَاسِبِ فَقَدْ أَبْدَلَكَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ وَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ لَمْحَةً تَطْلُعُ الشَّمْسُ لَا شُعَاعَ لَهَا وَ أَمَّا عَقْلُ الْهَجِينِ فَإِنَّ أَهْلَ الْإِسْلَامِ تَتَكَافَأُ دِمَاؤُهُمْ وَ يُجِيرُ أَقْصَاهُمْ عَلَى أَدْنَاهُمْ وَ أَكْرَمُهُمْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَتْقَاهُمْ قَالا نَشْهَدُ بِاللَّهِ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ فِي أَنْفُسِنَا

And as for you, O Salma Bin Abad, you have come to ask me^-saww about worshipping the idols, and the day of Al-Sabasab, and the intellect of the ignoble. As for worshipping the idols, Allah^-azwj Majestic and Mighty is Saying: You, and whatever you are worshipping from besides Allah [21:98] – the Verse. And as for the day of Al-Sabasab, so Allah^-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Replaced it for you with the night of Pre-determination and the day of Eid, a glance of the emergence of the sun there being no rays for it. And as for the intellect of the ignoble, the people of Islam have sufficed their blood, and defended their distant ones and their near ones, and their most honourable ones in the Presence of Allah^-azwj are their pious ones’. They said, ‘We testify with that, that was indeed within our selves’.

And in a Hadeeth of Abu Ja’far^-asws: ‘The Prophet^-saww prayed Salat and the people separated and there remained Ansary and Saqafy. He^-saww said to them both: ‘I^-saww have come to know that there is a need for you which you want to ask me^-saww about, so if you so like I^-saww can inform you with your needs before you ask me, and if you so like, you can ask’. They said, ‘We would love it if you^-saww could inform us with it before we ask you^-saww, for in that would be a shine for the blindness and affirmation for the Eman’.

He^-saww said: ‘O brother of Ansar! You are from a people preferring others over their own selves and you are a towner and he is a Bedouin, so will you prefer him with the question?’ He said, ‘Yes’. He^-saww said: ‘As for you, O brother of Saqeef, you have come to me^-saww to ask me^-saww about your Wudu’u and your Salat, and what Recompense would be for you upon that’. And he^-saww informed him with that. ‘And as for you, of brother Ansar, you came to ask me^-saww about your Hajj and your Umrah and what would be for you regarding these two’. And he^-saww informed him with their merits’.

أَنَسٌ‏ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ اسْمُهُ أَبُو بَدْرٍ قُلْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فَسَأَلَهُ حُجَّةً فَقَالَ فِي قَلْبِكَ مِنْ أَرْبَعَةِ أَشْهُرٍ كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَصَدَّقَهُ وَ أَسْلَمَ

Anas (the famous Hadith fabricator), ‘He^-saww said to a man whose name was Abu Badr: ‘Say there is no god except Allah^-azwj’. He asked him^-saww for proof. He^-saww said: ‘There has been such and such in your heart for four months’. He ratified him^-saww and became a Muslim’.

A beggar came to the Prophet^-saww and asked him^-saww for something. He^-saww instructed him with being seated. Then a man came to him^-saww with a bag and placed it before him^-saww and said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! There are found hundred Dirhams. Give it to a deserving one’. He^-saww said: ‘O beggar! Take these four hundred Dinars!’ The owner of the wealth said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! It is not with Dinars, but rather these are Dirhams’.

He^-saww said: ‘Do not belie me^-saww, for Allah^-azwj Ratifies me^-saww’. And he^-saww opened the top of the bag and there were Dinars in there. The man was astonished and swore that he had filled it from the Dirhams. He^-saww said: ‘You speak the truth, but when the ‘Dinars’ flowed upon my^-saww tongue, Allah^-azwj Converted the Dirhams into Dinars’.

He will say, ‘If Rasool-Allah^-saww had sent any gift with you it would have been like the meal which descended unto the children of Israel and upon the Messiah^-as’. It happened just as he^-saww said.

And in a Hadeeth of Jareer Bin Abdullah Al-Bajaly and Abduh Bin Mas’har when he said to him^-saww, ‘Inform me about what I ask you and what I did not see and what I saw’ – meaning in the dream. He^-saww said: ‘But what you did not see is your sword Al-Hasam, and your son Al-Hamam, and your horse Asaam, and you saw in your dream regarding the darkness of darkness. Your son will want the gazelle, and Abu will be met by Abu Sagal, at the base of the mountain, with one of the women of the clan of Sagal. He will be killed by Najda Bin Jabal’. Then he^-saww informed him with what would flow and what would obligate him to do.

Abu Sufyan said in his bed with Hind, ‘Strange that the orphan^-saww of Abu Talib^-asws has been Sent (as a Prophet) and I have not been Sent. Someone related the story to the Prophet^-saww in his presence. Abu Sufyan thought of punishing Hind for having exposed his secret.

فَلَمَّا رَآهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ لِمَ جِئْتَ فَقَالَ لِفِدَاءِ أَسْرَى عِنْدَكُمْ قَالَ وَ مَا بَالُ السَّيْفِ قَالَ قَبَّحَهَا اللَّهُ وَ هَلْ أَغْنَتْ مِنْ شَيْ‏ءٍ قَالَ فَمَا ذَا شَرَطْتَ لِصَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ فِي الْحِجْرِ قَالَ وَ مَا ذَا شَرَطْتُ قَالَ تَحَمَّلْتَ لَهُ بِقَتْلِي عَلَى أَنْ يَقْضِيَ دَيْنَكَ وَ يَعُولَ عِيَالَكَ وَ اللَّهُ حَائِلٌ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَكَ

When Rasool-Allah^-saww saw him, he^-saww said: ‘Why did you come?’ He said, ‘To ransom the captives who are with you^-saww’. He^-saww said: ‘And what is the matter (you are carrying) the sword?’ He said, ‘Allah^-azwj Dislikes it, and can I avail of anything?’ He^-saww said: ‘What is that which you stipulated to Safwan Bin Amira in the room?’ He said, ‘And what is which I stipulated?’ He^-saww said: ‘You will carry on for him to kill me^-saww upon that he will pay off your debts and provide for your dependants, and Allah^-azwj will be a Barrier between me^-saww and you’.

فَأَسْلَمَ الرَّجُلُ ثُمَّ لَحِقَ بِمَكَّةَ وَ أَسْلَمَ مَعَهُ بِشْرٌ وَ حَلَفَ صَفْوَانُ أَنْ لَا يُكَلِّمَهُ أَبَداً

The man became a Muslim, then stayed at Makkah and a person became a Muslim with him, and Safwan swore that he will not speak to him, ever’’.[166]

41- قب، المناقب لابن شهرآشوب فِي حَدِيثِ خُزَيْمِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ص يَقُولُ‏ هَذِهِ الْحِيرَةُ الْبَيْضَاءُ قَدْ رُفِعَتْ لِي وَ هَذِهِ الشَّيْمَاءُ بِنْتُ نُفَيْلَةَ الْأَزْدِيَّةِ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ شَهْبَاءَ مُعْتَجِرَةٌ بِخِمَارٍ أَسْوَدَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ نَحْنُ دَخَلْنَا الْحِيرَةَ فَوَجَدْنَا كَمَا تَصِفُ فَهِيَ لِي قَالَ نَعَمْ هِيَ لَكَ

Abu Hureyra (fabricator), ‘He^-saww said: ‘When Chosroe dies there will be no Chosroe after him, and when Caesar dies, there will be no Caesar after him. By the One^-azwj in Whose Hand is my^-saww soul, their treasures will be spent in the Way of Allah^-azwj’.

Ibn Abbas, ‘The Prophet^-saww said: ‘The female owner of the well-bred camel will come to you. There will be killing around her, a lot would be killed after she goes’.

وَ قَالَ ص‏ أَطْوَلُكُنَّ يَداً أَسْرَعُكُنَّ لُحُوقاً بِي فَكَانَتْ سَوْدَةُ أَطْوَلَهُنَّ يَداً بِالْمَعْرُوفِ

And he^-saww said: ‘The longest of you (wives) in hand (generosity) would be the quickest of you in meeting me^-saww’. Sawdah was of the longest hand with the good deeds’.

ابْنُ عُمَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص‏ يَكُونُ فِي ثَقِيفٍ كَذَّابٌ وَ مُبِيرٌ فَكَانَ الْكَذَّابُ الْمُخْتَارَ وَ الْمُبِيرُ الْحَجَّاجَ

Ibn Umar, ‘From the Prophet^-saww: ‘They were be a liar and a blood-thirsty tyrant among the (clan of) Saqeef’. The liar was Al Mukhtar and the blood-thirsty tyrant was Al Hajjaj. (Non-Shia source source)

And from it is his^-saww informing about Aws Al-Qarny told Al-Uqba that Abu Ayoub Al-Ansary seen at the gulf of Constantinople. He was asked about his need. He said, ‘As for your world, there is no need for me regarding it, but if I die, then take me as close as you cane in the country of the enemy, for I heard Rasool-Allah^-saww saying: ‘A righteous man from my^-saww companions will be buried by the bridge of Constantinople, and I have wished it would happen to be me’.

ثُمَّ مَاتَ فَكَانُوا يُجَاهِدُونَ وَ السَّرِيرُ يُحْمَلُ وَ يُقَدَّمُ فَأَرْسَلَ قَيْصَرُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالُوا صَاحِبُ نَبِيِّنَا وَ قَدْ سَأَلَنَا أَنْ نَدْفِنَهُ فِي بِلَادِكَ وَ نَحْنُ مُنْفِذُونَ وَصِيَّتَهُ قَالَ فَإِذَا وَلَّيْتُمْ أَخْرَجْنَاهُ إِلَى الْكِلَابِ

Then he died, and they were fighting, and the funeral byre was being carried and advancing. They sent a message to Caesar regarding that. They said, ‘A companion of our Prophet^-saww, and he has asked us to bury him in your city, and we are implementing his bequest’. He said, ‘When you turn around (return), I will extract him to (be fed to) the dogs’.

فَقَالُوا لَوْ نُبِشَ مِنْ قَبْرِهِ مَا تُرِكَ بِأَرْضِ الْعَرَبِ نَصْرَانِيٌّ إِلَّا قُتِلَ وَ لَا كَنِيسَةٌ إِلَّا هُدِّمَتْ فَبُنِيَ عَلَى قَبْرِهِ قُبَّةٌ يُسْرَجُ فِيهَا إِلَى الْيَوْمِ وَ قَبْرُهُ إِلَى الْآنَ يُزَارُ فِي جَنْبِ سُورِ الْقُسْطَنْطِينِيَّةِ

They said, ‘If we have to exhume him from his grave, there will not be left any Christian in the land of the Arabs except he would be killed, nor any church except demolished’. So, he built a dome on his grave, with lanterns being lit in it up to today, and his grave is not being visited in the south of the bridge of Constantinople’’.[167]

42- شي، تفسير العياشي عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَحْيَى الْكَاهِلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ‏ لَمَّا أُسْرِيَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ السَّلَامُ أَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ بِالْبُرَاقِ فَرَكِبَهَا فَأَتَى بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ فَلَقِيَ مَنْ لَقِيَ مِنْ إِخْوَانِهِ مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأَصْبَحَ يُحَدِّثُ أَصْحَابَهُ أَنِّي أَتَيْتُ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ اللَّيْلَةَ وَ لَقِيتُ إِخْوَاناً مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ

‘Tafseer Al-Ayyashi’ – From Abdullah Bin Yahya Al Kahily,

From Abu Abdullah^-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘I heard him^-asws saying: ‘When there was an Ascension (Miraj) with Rasool-Allah^-saww, Jibraeel^-as came to him^-asws with Al-Buraq and he^-saww rode it and came to Bayt Al-Maqdas. Then he^-saww met the ones from the Prophets^-as he^-saww met, then returned. In the morning he^-saww narrated to his^-saww companions: ‘I^-saww went to Bayt Al-Maqdas last night and met our brothers^-as from the Prophets^-as’.

فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ كَيْفَ أَتَيْتَ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ اللَّيْلَةَ فَقَالَ جَاءَنِي جَبْرَئِيلُ ع بِالْبُرَاقِ فَرَكِبْتُهُ وَ آيَةُ ذَلِكَ أَنِّي مَرَرْتُ بِعِيرٍ لِأَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَلَى مَاءِ بَنِي فُلَانٍ وَ قَدْ أَضَلُّوا جَمَلًا لَهُمْ وَ هُمْ فِي طَلَبِهِ

They said, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! And how did you^-saww go to Bayt Al-Maqdas last night?’ He^-saww said: ‘Jibraeel^-as came to me^-saww with Al-Buraq and I^-saww rode it, and a sign of that is that I^-saww passed by a caravan of Abu Sufyan at the water of the clan of so and so, and a camel of their had strayed and they were seeking it’.

قَالَ فَقَالَ الْقَوْمُ‏ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ إِنَّمَا جَاءَ رَاكِبٌ سَرِيعٌ وَ لَكِنَّكُمْ قَدْ أَتَيْتُمُ الشَّامَ وَ عَرَفْتُمُوهَا فَاسْأَلُوهُ عَنْ أَسْوَاقِهَا وَ أَبْوَابِهَا وَ تُجَّارِهَا قَالَ فَسَأَلُوهُ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ الشَّامُ وَ كَيْفَ أَسْوَاقُهَا

He^-asws said: ‘The people said to each other, ‘But rather a rider will come quickly, but you have gone to Syrian and know it, so ask him^-asws about its markets and its gates and its traders’. They asked him^-saww, ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! How is Syria? And how are its markets?’

وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا سُئِلَ عَنِ الشَّيْ‏ءِ لَا يَعْرِفُهُ شَقَّ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى يُرَى ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ قَالَ فَبَيْنَا هُوَ كَذَلِكَ إِذَا أَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذِهِ الشَّامُ قَدْ رُفِعَتْ لَكَ فَالْتَفَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَإِذَا هُوَ بِالشَّامِ وَ أَبْوَابِهَا وَ تُجَّارِهَا

And it was such that whenever Rasool-Allah^-saww was asked about something he^-saww did not know, it was grievous upon him^-saww until that was seen in his^-saww face. While he^-saww was like that when Jibraeel^-as came to him^-saww and said: ‘O Rasool-Allah^-saww! This is Syrian having been raised for you^-saww’. Rasool-Allah^-saww turned around and there he^-saww was staring at Syria and its gates and its traders.

فَقَالَ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ الشَّامِ فَقَالُوا أَيْنَ بَيْتُ فُلَانٍ وَ مَكَانُ فُلَانٍ فَأَجَابَهُمُ فِي كُلِّ مَا سَأَلُوهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ فَلَمْ يُؤْمِنْ فِيهِمْ‏ إِلَّاقَلِيلٌ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ‏ وَ ما تُغْنِي الْآياتُ وَ النُّذُرُ عَنْ قَوْمٍ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ‏ فَنَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ أَنْ لَا نُؤْمِنَ بِاللَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَ بِرَسُولِهِ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَ بِرَسُولِهِ

He^-saww said: ‘Where is the questioner about Syria?’ They said, ‘Where is the house of so and so, and place of so and so?’ He^-saww answered them regarding all what they asked him^-saww about. But only a few of them believed and it is the Word of Allah^-azwj: and the Signs and the warners do not avail a people not believing [10:101]. We seek Refuge with Allah^-azwj of not believing in Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww. We believe in Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww! We believe in Allah^-azwj and His^-azwj Rasool^-saww’’.[168]
