Volume 9, Book 93, Number 539:
Narrated Abu Bakra:
The Prophet said, “Time has come back to its original state which it had when Allah created the
Heavens and the Earth, the year is twelve months, of which four are sacred; (and out of these four)
three are in succession, namely, Dhul-Qa’da, Dhul-Hijja and Muharram, and (the fourth one) Rajab
Mudar which is between Jumad (Ath-Tham) and Sha’ban.” The Prophet then asked us, “Which
month is this?” We said, “Allah and His Apostle know (it) better.” He kept quiet so long that we
thought he might call it by another name. Then he said, “Isn’t it Dhul-Hijja?” We said, “Yes.” He asked
“What town is this?” We said, “Allah and His Apostle know (it) better.’ Then he kept quiet so long that
we thought he might call it by another name. He then said, “Isn’t it the (forbidden) town (Mecca)?”
We said, “Yes.” He asked, “What is the day today?” We said, “Allah and His Apostle know (it) better.
Then he kept quiet so long that we thought that he might call it by another name. Then he said, “Isn’t
it the Day of An-Nahr (slaughtering of sacrifices)?” We said, “Yes.” Then he said, “Your blood (lives),
your properties,” (the sub narrator Muhammad, said: I think he also said): “..and your honor) are as
sacred to one another like the sanctity of this Day of yours, in this town of yours, in this month of
yours.
You shall meet your Lord and He will ask you about your deeds. Beware! Don’t go astray after me
by striking the necks of one another. Lo! It is incumbent upon those who are present to inform it to
those who are absent for perhaps the informed one might comprehend it (understand it) better than
some of the present audience.” Whenever the sub-narrator Muhammad mentioned that statement,
he would say, “The Prophet said the truth.”) And then the Prophet added, “No doubt! Haven’t I con –
veyed Allah’s Message to you! No doubt! Haven’t I conveyed Allah’s Message to you?”

During the battle of Al-Jamal, Allah benefited me with a Word (I heard from the Prophet). When

Queen (ruler), he said, “Never will succeed such a nation as makes a woman their ruler.”
Volume 9, Book 88, Number 199:
Narrated Abu Bakra:
Allah’s Apostle addressed the people saying, “Don’t you know what is the day today?” They replied,
“Allah and His Apostle know better.” We thought that he might give that day another name. The
Prophet said, “Isn’t it the day of An-Nahr?” We replied, “Yes. O Allah’s Apostle.” He then said, “What
town is this? Isn’t it the forbidden (Sacred) Town (Mecca)?” We replied, “Yes, O Allah’s Apostle.” He
then said, “Your blood, your properties, your honors and your skins (i.e., bodies) are as sacred to one
another like the sanctity of this day of yours in this month of yours in this town of yours. (Listen)
Haven’t I conveyed Allah’s message to you?” We replied, “Yes” He said, “O Allah! Be witness (for it). So
it is incumbent upon those who are present to convey it (this message of mine) to those who are ab –
sent because the informed one might comprehend what I have said better than the present audience
who will convey it to him.)” The narrator added: In fact, it was like that. The Prophet added, “Beware!
Do not renegade as disbelievers after me by striking (cutting) the necks of one another.”

Narrated Abu Bakra:
The Prophet. said, “The biggest of the great sins are: To join others in worship with Allah, to be un –

losing?” They (the Prophet’s companions) said, “Yes, (they are).” He said, “By Him in Whose Hand my
soul is, they (the first group) are better than them (the second group).”

Narrated Abu Bakra:
A man praised another man in front of the Prophet. The Prophet said thrice, “Wailaka (Woe on
you) ! You have cut the neck of your brother!” The Prophet added, “If it is indispensable for anyone of
you to praise a person, then he should say, “I think that such-and-such person (is so-and-so), and
Allah is the one who will take his accounts (as he knows his reality) and none can sanctify anybody
before Allah (and that only if he knows well about that person.)”.
