Narrated Ata bin Yasar:
I met Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As and asked him, “Tell me about the description of Allah’s Apostle
which is mentioned in Torah (i.e. Old Testament.”) He replied, ‘Yes. By Allah, he is described in Torah
with some of the qualities attributed to him in the Quran as follows:
“O Prophet ! We have sent you as a witness (for Allah’s True religion) And a giver of glad tidings
(to the faithful believers), And a warner (to the unbelievers) And guardian of the illiterates. You are
My slave and My messenger (i.e. Apostle). I have named you “Al-Mutawakkil” (who depends upon
Allah). You are neither discourteous, harsh Nor a noise-maker in the markets And you do not do evil
to those Who do evil to you, but you deal With them with forgiveness and kindness. Allah will not let
him (the Prophet) Die till he makes straight the crooked people by making them say: “None has the
right to be worshipped but Allah,” With which will be opened blind eyes And deaf ears and envel –
oped hearts.”

the market of Bani Qainuqa and then he sat in the compound of Fatima’s house and asked about the
small boy (his grandson Al-Hasan) but Fatima kept the boy in for a while. I thought she was either
changing his clothes or giving the boy a bath. After a while the boy came out running and the
Prophet embraced and kissed him and then said, ‘O Allah! Love him, and love whoever loves him.’

Ibn ‘Umar told us that the people used to buy food from the caravans in the lifetime of the Prophet.
The Prophet used to forbid them to sell it at the very place where they had purchased it (but they

also forbade the reselling of foodstuff by somebody who had bought it unless he had received it with

buyer and the seller give the option of either confirming or cancelling the bargain three times, and if
they speak the truth and mention the defects, then their bargain will be blessed, and if they tell lies
and conceal the defects, they might gain some financial gain but they will deprive their sale of (Al –
lah’s) blessings.”
