I saw Abu Said and asked him about coitus interruptus. Abu Said said, “We went with Allah’s
Apostle, in the Ghazwa of Barli Al-Mustaliq and we captured some of the ‘Arabs as captives, and the
long separation from our wives was pressing us hard and we wanted to practice coitus interruptus.
We asked Allah’s Apostle (whether it was permissible). He said, “It is better for you not to do so. No
soul, (that which Allah has) destined to exist, up to the Day of Resurrection, but will definitely come,
into existence.”

I have loved the people of the tribe of Bani Tamim ever since I heard, three things, Allah’s Apostle
said about them. I heard him saying, These people (of the tribe of Bani Tamim) would stand firm
against Ad-Dajjal.” When the Sadaqat (gifts of charity) from that tribe came, Allah’s Apostle said,
“These are the Sadaqat (i.e. charitable gifts) of our folk.” ‘Aisha had a slave-girl from that tribe, and
the Prophet said to ‘Aisha, “Manumit her as she is a descendant of Ishmael (the Prophet).”

I saw Abu Dhar Al-Ghifari wearing a cloak, and his slave, too, was wearing a cloak. We asked him
about that (i.e. how both were wearing similar cloaks). He replied, “Once I abused a man and he
complained of me to the Prophet . The Prophet asked me, ‘Did you abuse him by slighting his moth –
er?’ He added, ‘Your slaves are your brethren upon whom Allah has given you authority. So, if one
has one’s brethren under one’s control, one should feed them with the like of what one eats and
clothe them with the like of what one wears. You should not overburden them with what they can –
not bear, and if you do so, help them (in their hard job).”

So, I manumitted her. The Prophet called Buraira and gave her the option of either staying with her
husband or leaving him. She said, “Even if he gave me so much money, I would not stay with him,”
and so she preferred her freedom to her husband.
