(mother of the faithful believers) I bought a cushion with pictures on it. When Allah’s Apostle saw
it, he kept standing at the door and did not enter the house. I noticed the sign of disgust on his face,
so I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! I repent to Allah and H is Apostle . (Please let me know) what sin I have
done.” Allah’s Apostle said, “What about this cushion?” I replied, “I bought it for you to sit and recline
on.” Allah’s Apostle said, “The painters (i.e. owners) of these pictures will be punished on the Day of
Resurrection. It will be said to them, ‘Put life in what you have created (i.e. painted).’ ” The Prophet
added, “The angels do not enter a house where there are pictures.”

of excessive and unquenchable thirst. Ibn ‘Umar went to the partner of Nawwas and bought those
camels. The man returned to Nawwas and told him that he had sold those camels. Nawwas asked
him, “To whom have you sold them?” He replied, “To such and such Sheikh.” Nawwas said, “Woe to
you; By Allah, that Sheikh was Ibn ‘Umar.” Nawwas then went to Ibn ‘Umar and said to him, “My
partner sold you camels suffering from the disease of excessive thirst and he had not known you.”
Ibn ‘Umar told him to take them back. When Nawwas went to take them, Ibn ‘Umar said to him,
“Leave them there as I am happy with the decision of Allah’s Apostle that there is no oppression . “
