Volume 3, Book 31, Number 195:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As:
“Once Allah’s Apostle came to me,” and then he narrated the whole narration, i.e. your guest has a
right on you, and your wife has a right on you. I then asked about the fasting of David. The Prophet
replied, “Half of the year,” (i.e. he used to fast on every alternate day).

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 793:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As:
I witnessed the Prophet when he was delivering the sermon on the Day of Nahr. A man stood up
and said, “I thought that such and such was to be done before such and such. I got my hair shaved
before slaughtering.” (Another said), “I slaughtered the Hadi before doing the Rami.” So, the people
asked about many similar things. The Prophet said, “Do it (now) and there is no harm in all these
cases.” Whenever the Prophet was asked about anything on that day, he replied, “Do it (now) and
there is no harm in it.”

I heard Allah’s Apostle saying, “Allah does not take away the knowledge, by taking it away from
(the hearts of) the people, but takes it away by the death of the religious learned men till when none
