Volume 6, Book 60, Number 367:
Narrated Habib bin Abi Thabit:
I went to Abu Wail to ask him (about those who had rebelled against ‘Ali). On that Abu Wail said,
“We were at Siffin (a city on the bank of the Euphrates, the place where me battle took place between
‘Ali and Muawiya) A man said, “Will you be on the side of those who are called to consult Allah’s
Book (to settle the dispute)?” ‘Ali said, ‘Yes (I agree that we should settle the matter in the light of the
Qur’an).” ‘ Some people objected to ‘Ali’s agreement and wanted to fight. On that Sahl bin Hunaif
said, ‘Blame yourselves! I remember how, on the day of Al-Hudaibiya (i.e. the peace treaty between
the Prophet and the Quraish pagans), if we had been allowed to choose fighting, we would have
fought (the pagans). At that time ‘Umar came (to the Prophet) and said, “Aren’t we on the right (path)
and they (pagans) in the wrong? Won’t our killed persons go to Paradise, and theirs in the Fire?” The
Prophet replied, “Yes.” Umar further said, “Then why should we let our religion be degraded and re –
turn before Allah has settled the matter between us?” The Prophet said, “O the son of Al-Khattab! No
doubt, I am Allah’s Apostle and Allah will never neglect me.” So Umar left the place angrily and he
was so impatient that he went to Abu Bakr and said, “O Abu Bakr! Aren’t we on the right (path) and
they (pagans) on the wrong?” Abu Bakr said, “O the son of Al-Khattab! He is Allah’s Apostle, and Al –
lah will never neglect him.” Then Sura Al-Fath (The Victory) was revealed.”
Volume 6, Book 60, Number 368:
Narrated Ibn Abi Mulaika:
The two righteous persons were about to be ruined. They were Abu Bakr and ‘Umar who raised
their voices in the presence of the Prophet when a mission from Bani Tamim came to him. One of the
two recommended Al-Aqra’ bin Habeas, the brother of Bani Mujashi (to be their governor) while the
other recommended somebody else. (Nafi’, the sub-narrator said, I do not remember his name). Abu
Bakr said to Umar, “You wanted nothing but to oppose me!” ‘Umar said, “I did not intend to oppose
you.” Their voices grew loud in that argument, so Allah revealed:
‘O you who believe! Raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet.’ (49.2) Ibn Az-Zubair
said, “Since the revelation of this Verse, ‘Umar used to speak in such a low tone that the Prophet had
to ask him to repeat his statements.” But Ibn Az-Zubair did not mention the same about his (mater –
nal) grandfather (i.e. Abu Bakr).
Volume 6, Book 60, Number 353:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
(the wife of the Prophet), I never saw Allah’s Apostle laughing loudly enough to enable me to see
his uvula, but he used to smile only. And whenever he saw clouds or winds, signs of deep concern
would appear on his face. I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! When people see clouds they usually feel happy,

hoping that it would rain, while I see that when you see clouds, one could notice signs of dissatisfac –
tion on your face.” He said, “O ‘Aisha! What is the guarantee for me that there will be no punishment
in it, since some people were punished with a wind? Verily, some people saw (received) the punish –
ment, but (while seeing the cloud) they said, ‘This cloud will give us rain.’ “
Volume 6, Book 60, Number 354:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “Allah created His creation, and when He had finished it, the womb, got up and
caught hold of Allah whereupon Allah said, “What is the matter?’ On that, it said, ‘I seek refuge with
you from those who sever the ties of Kith and kin.’ On that Allah said, ‘Will you be satisfied if I be –
stow My favors on him who keeps your ties, and withhold My favors from him who severs your
ties?’ On that it said, ‘Yes, O my Lord!’ Then Allah said, ‘That is for you.’ ” Abu Huraira added: If you
wish, you can recite: “Would you then if you were given the authority. do mischief in the land and
sever your ties of kinship. (47. 22)
