Volume 4, Book 53, Number 407:
Narrated Asma ‘bint Abi Bakr:
During the period of the peace treaty of Quraish with Allah’s Apostle, my mother, accompanied by
her father, came to visit me, and she was a pagan. I consulted Allah’s Apostle, “O Allah’s Apostle! My
mother has come to me and she desires to receive a reward from me, shall I keep good relation with
her?” He said, “Yes, keep good relation with her.”
Volume 4, Book 53, Number 408:
Narrated Al-Bara:
When the Prophet intended to perform the ‘Umra he sent a person to the people of Mecca asking
their permission to enter Mecca. They stipulated that he would not stay for more than three days and
would not enter it except with sheathed arms and would not preach (Islam) to any of them. So Ali
bin Abi-Talib started writing the treaty between them. He wrote, “This is what Muhammad, Apostle
of Allah has agreed to.” The (Meccans) said, “If we knew that you (Muhammad) are the Apostle of Al –
lah, then we would not have prevented you and would have followed you. But write, ‘This is what
Muhammad bin ‘Abdullah has agreed to..’ ” On that Allah’s Apostle said, “By Allah, I am Muhammad
bin ‘Abdullah, and, by Allah, I am Apostle of ‘Allah.” Allah’s Apostle used not to write; so he asked ‘Ali
to erase the expression of Apostle of Allah. On that ‘Ali said, “By Allah I will never erase it.” Allah’s
Apostle said (to ‘Ali), “Let me see the paper.” When ‘Ali showed him the paper, the Prophet erased the
expression with his own hand. When Allah’s Apostle had entered Mecca and three days had elapsed,
the Meccans came to ‘Ali and said, “Let your friend (i.e. the Prophet) quit Mecca.” Ali informed Allah’s
Apostle about it and Allah’s Apostle said, “Yes,” and then he departed.

Volume 4, Book 53, Number 409:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
While the Prophet was in the state of prostration, surrounded by a group of people from Quraish
pagans. ‘Uqba bin Abi Mu’ait came and brought the intestines of a camel and threw them on the
back of the Prophet . The Prophet did not raise his head from prostration till Fatima (i.e. his daugh –
ter) came and removed those intestines from his back, and invoked evil on whoever had done (the
evil deed). The Prophet said, “O Allah! Destroy the chiefs of Quraish, O Allah! Destroy Abu Jahl bin
Hisham, ‘Utba bin Rabi’a, Shaiba bin Rabi’a. ‘Uqba bin Abi Mu’ait ‘Umaiya bin Khalaf (or Ubai bin
Kalaf).” Later on I saw all of them killed during the battle of Badr and their bodies were thrown into a
well except the body of Umaiya or Ubai, because he was a fat person, and when he was pulled, the
parts of his body got separated before he was thrown into the well.
Volume 4, Book 53, Number 410:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, ”Every betrayer will have a flag on the Day of Resurrection” One of the two sub-
narrators said that the flag would be fixed, and the other said that it would be shown on the Day of
Resurrection, so that the betrayer might be recognized by it.
Volume 4, Book 53, Number 411:
Narrated Ibn Umar:
The Prophet said, “Every betrayer will have a flag which will be fixed on the Day of Resurrection,
and the flag’s prominence will be made in order to show the betrayal he committed.”
Volume 4, Book 53, Number 412:
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
Allah’s Apostle said on the day of the conquest of Mecca, “There is no migration now, but there is
Jihad (i.e.. holy battle) and good intentions. And when you are called for Jihad, you should come out
at once” Allah’s Apostle also said, on the day of the conquest of Mecca, “Allah has made this town a
sanctuary since the day He created the Heavens and the Earth. So, it is a sanctuary by Allah’s Decree
till the Day of Resurrection. Fighting in it was not legal for anyone before me, and it was made legal
for me only for an hour by daytime. So, it (i.e. Mecca) is a sanctuary by Allah’s Decree till the Day of
Resurrection. Its thorny bushes should not be cut, and its game should not be chased, its fallen prop –
erty (i.e. Luqata) should not be picked up except by one who will announce it publicly; and its grass
should not be uprooted,” On that Al-‘Abbas said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Except the Idhkhir, because it is

used by the goldsmiths and by the people for their houses.” On that the Prophet said, “Except the Id –
hkhir.”

Narrated Al-Amash:
I asked Abu Wail, “Did you take part in the battle of Siffin?” He said, ‘Yes, and I heard Sahl bin
Hunaif (when he was blamed for lack of zeal for fighting) saying, “You’d better blame your wrong
opinions. I wish you had seen me on the day of Abu Jandal. If I had the courage to disobey the
Prophet’s orders, I would have done so. We had kept out swords on our necks and shoulders, for a
thing which frightened us. And we did so, we found it easier for us, except in the case of the above
battle (of ours).’ “

Narrated Abu Wail:

SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 4 > BOOK 53: ONE-FIFTH OF BOOTY TO THE CAUSE OF ALLAH (KHUMUS)
We were in Siffin and Sahl bin Hunaif got up and said, “O people! Blame yourselves! We were
with the Prophet on the day of Hudaibiya, and if we had been called to fight, we would have fought.
But ‘Umar bin Al Khatab came and said, ‘O Allah’s Apostle! Aren’t we in the right and our opponents
in the wrongs’ Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Yes.’ ‘Umar said, ‘Aren’t our killed persons in Paradise and their’s
in Hell?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ ‘Umar said, ‘Then why should we accept hard terms in matters concerning our
religion? Shall we return before Allah judges between us and them?’ Allah’s Apostle said, ‘O Ibn Al-
Khattab! I am the Apostle of Allah and Allah will never degrade me. Then ‘Umar went to Abu Bakr
and told him the same as he had told the Prophet.
On that Abu Bakr said (to ‘Umar). ‘He is the Apostle of Allah and Allah will never degrade him.’
Then Surat-al-Fath (i.e. Victory) was revealed and Allah’s Apostle recited it to the end in front of
‘Umar. On that ‘Umar asked, ‘O Allah’s Apostle! Was it (i.e. the Hudaibiya Treaty) a victory?’ Allah’s
Apostle said, “Yes”
