Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said, “When Allah’s Apostle arrived at Medina, he slaughtered a camel or a
cow.” Jabir added, “The Prophet bought a camel from me for two Uqiyas (of gold) and one or two
Dirhams. When he reached Sirar, he ordered that a cow be slaughtered and they ate its meat. When
he arrived at Medina, he ordered me to go to the Mosque and offer two Rakat, and weighed (and
gave) me the price of the camel.”

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet got up amongst us and mentioned Al Ghulul, emphasized its magnitude and declared
that it was a great sin saying, “Don’t commit Ghulul for I should not like to see anyone amongst you
on the Day of Ressurection, carrying over his neck a sheep that will be bleating, or carrying over his
neck a horse that will be neighing. Such a man will be saying: ‘O Allah’s Apostle! Intercede with Al –
lah for me,’ and I will reply, ‘I can’t help you, for I have conveyed Allah’s Message to you Nor should I
like to see a man carrying over his neck, a camel that will be grunting. Such a man will say, ‘O Al –
lah’s Apostle! Intercede with Allah for me, and I will say, ‘I can’t help you for I have conveyed Allah’s
Message to you,’ or one carrying over his neck gold and silver and saying, ‘O Allah’s Apostle! Inter –
cede with Allah for me,’ and I will say, ‘I can’t help you for I have conveyed Allah’s Message to you,’
or one carrying clothes that will be fluttering, and the man will say, ‘O Allah’s Apostle! Intercede
with Allah for me.’ And I will say, ‘I can’t help you, for I have conveyed Allah’s Message to you.”

Narrated Aslam:
Umar bin Al-Khattab appointed a freed slave of his, called Hunai, manager of the Hima (i.e. a pas –
ture devoted for grazing the animals of the Zakat or other specified animals). He said to him, “O
Hunai! Don’t oppress the Muslims and ward off their curse (invocations against you) for the invoca –
tion of the oppressed is responded to (by Allah); and allow the shepherd having a few camels and
those having a few sheep (to graze their animals), and take care not to allow the livestock of ‘Abdur-
Rahman bin ‘Auf and the livestock of (‘Uthman) bin ‘Affan, for if their livestock should perish, then
they have their farms and gardens, while those who own a few camels and those who own a few
sheep, if their livestock should perish, would bring their dependents to me and appeal for help say –
ing, ‘O chief of the believers! O chief of the believers!’ Would I then neglect them? (No, of course).
So, I find it easier to let them have water and grass rather than to give them gold and silver (from the

Muslims’ treasury). By Allah, these people think that I have been unjust to them. This is their land,
and during the pre-lslamic period, they fought for it and they embraced Islam (willingly) while it
was in their possession. By Him in Whose Hand my life is! Were it not for the animals (in my cus –
tody) which I give to be ridden for striving in Allah’s Cause, I would not have turned even a span of
their land into a Hima.”

Narrated Hudhaifa:
The Prophet said (to us), ” List the names of those people who have announced that they are
Muslims.” So, we listed one thousand and five hundred men. Then we wondered, “Should we be
afraid (of infidels) although we are one thousand and five hundred in number?” No doubt, we wit –
nessed ourselves being afflicted with such bad trials that one would have to offer the prayer alone in
fear.
