Volume 1, Book 4, Number 241:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud:
Once the Prophet was offering prayers at the Ka’ba. Abu Jahl was sitting with some of his compan –
ions. One of them said to the others, “Who amongst you will bring the abdominal contents (intest –
ines, etc.) of a camel of Bani so and so and put it on the back of Muhammad, when he prostrates?”
The most unfortunate of them got up and brought it. He waited till the Prophet prostrated and then
placed it on his back between his shoulders. I was watching but could not do any thing. I wish I had
some people with me to hold out against them. They started laughing and falling on one another. Al –
lah’s Apostle was in prostration and he did not lift his head up till Fatima (Prophet’s daughter) came
and threw that (camel’s abdominal contents) away from his back. He raised his head and said thrice,
“O Allah! Punish Quraish.” So it was hard for Abu Jahl and his companions when the Prophet in –
voked Allah against them as they had a conviction that the prayers and invocations were accepted in
this city (Mecca). The Prophet said, “O Allah! Punish Abu Jahl, ‘Utba bin Rabi’a, Shaiba bin Rabi’a, Al-

Walid bin ‘Utba, Umaiya bin Khalaf, and ‘Uqba bin Al Mu’it (and he mentioned the seventh whose
name I cannot recall). By Allah in Whose Hands my life is, I saw the dead bodies of those persons
who were counted by Allah’s Apostle in the Qalib (one of the wells) of Badr.

Sahl bin Sa’d As-Sa’idi, was asked by the people, “With what was the wound of the Prophet
treated? Sahl replied, “None remains among the people living who knows that better than I. ‘Ah used

burnt and the wound was filled with it.”

The Prophet said to me, “Whenever you go to bed perform ablution like that for the prayer, lie or

bikitabika-l-ladhi anzalta wa bina-biyika-l ladhi arsalta” (O Allah! I surrender to You and entrust
all my affairs to You and depend upon You for Your Blessings both with hope and fear of You. There
is no fleeing from You, and there is no place of protection and safety except with You O Allah! I be –
lieve in Your Book (the Qur’an) which You have revealed and in Your Prophet (Muhammad) whom
You have sent). Then if you die on that very night, you will die with faith (i.e. or the religion of
Islam). Let the aforesaid words be your last utterance (before sleep).” I repeated it before the Prophet
and when I reached “Allahumma amantu bikitabika-l-ladhi anzalta (O Allah I believe in Your Book
which You have revealed).” I said, “Wa-rasulika (and your Apostle).” The Prophet said, “No, (but say):
‘Wanabiyika-l-ladhi arsalta (Your Prophet whom You have sent), instead.”

Volume 1, Book 4, Number 234:
Narrated Abu Qilaba:
Anas said, “Some people of ‘Ukl or ‘Uraina tribe came to Medina and its climate did not suit them.
So the Prophet ordered them to go to the herd of (Milch) camels and to drink their milk and urine (as
a medicine). So they went as directed and after they became healthy, they killed the shepherd of the
Prophet and drove away all the camels. The news reached the Prophet early in the morning and he
sent (men) in their pursuit and they were captured and brought at noon. He then ordered to cut their
hands and feet (and it was done), and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron, They were
put in ‘Al-Harra’ and when they asked for water, no water was given to them.” Abu Qilaba said,
“Those people committed theft and murder, became infidels after embracing Islam and fought
against Allah and His Apostle .”
