for the people to ask you in marriage. Do you want to marry By Allah, you are not allowed to marry
unless four months and ten days have elapsed (after your husband’s death).” Subai’a in her narration
said, “When he (i.e. Abu As-Sanabil) said this to me. I put on my dress in the evening and went to Al –
lah’s Apostle and asked him about this problem. He gave the verdict that I was free to marry as I had
already given birth to my child and ordered me to marry if I wished.”

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar:
Umar bin Al-Khattab said, “When (my daughter) Hafsa bint ‘Umar lost her husband Khunais bin
Hudhaifa As-Sahrni who was one of the companions of Allah’s Apostle and had fought in the battle
of Badr and had died in Medina, I met ‘Uthman bin ‘Affan and suggested that he should marry Hafsa
saying, “If you wish, I will marry Hafsa bint ‘Umar to you,’ on that, he said, ‘I will think it over.’ I
waited for a few days and then he said to me. ‘I am of the opinion that I shall not marry at present.’
Then I met Abu Bakr and said, ‘if you wish, I will marry you, Hafsa bint ‘Umar.’ He kept quiet and did
not give me any reply and I became more angry with him than I was with Uthman . Some days later,
Allah’s Apostle demanded her hand in marriage and I married her to him. Later on Abu Bakr met me
and said, “Perhaps you were angry with me when you offered me Hafsa for marriage and I gave no
reply to you?’ I said, ‘Yes.’ Abu Bakr said, ‘Nothing prevented me from accepting your offer except
that I learnt that Allah’s Apostle had referred to the issue of Hafsa and I did not want to disclose the
secret of Allah’s Apostle , but had he (i.e. the Prophet) given her up I would surely have accepted
her.”

I heard ‘Urwa bin Az-Zubair talking to ‘Umar bin ‘Abdul ‘Aziz during the latter’s Governorship (at

On that, Abu Mas’ud. ‘Uqba bin ‘Amr Al-Ansari, the grand-father of Zaid bin Hasan, who was one of
the Badr warriors, came in and said, (to Al-Mughira), ‘You know that Gabriel came down and
offered the prayer and Allah’s Apostle prayed five prescribed prayers, and Gabriel said (to the Proph –
et ), “I have been ordered to do so (i.e. offer these five prayers at these fixed stated hours of the day).”

Narrated ‘Urwa:
On the day of (the battle) of Al-Yarmuk, the companions of Allah’s Apostle said to Az-Zubair,
“Will you attack the enemy so that we shall attack them with you?” Az-Zubair replied, “If I attack
them, you people would not support me.” They said, “No, we will support you.” So Az-Zubair attacked
them (i.e. Byzantine) and pierced through their lines, and went beyond them and none of his com –
panions was with him. Then he returned and the enemy got hold of the bridle of his (horse) and
struck him two blows (with the sword) on his shoulder. Between these two wounds there was a scar
caused by a blow, he had received on the day of Badr (battle). When I was a child I used to play with
those scars by putting my fingers in them. On that day (my brother) “Abdullah bin Az-Zubair was
also with him and he was ten years old. Az-Zubair had carried him on a horse and let him to the
care of some men.
