The alcoholic drink which was spilled was Al-Fadikh. I used to offer alcoholic drinks to the people
at the residence of Abu Talha. Then the order of prohibiting Alcoholic drinks was revealed, and the
Prophet ordered somebody to announce that: Abu Talha said to me, “Go out and see what this voice
(this announcement ) is.” I went out and (on coming back) said, “This is somebody announcing that

alcoholic beverages have been prohibited.” Abu Talha said to me, “Go and spill it (i.e. the wine),” Then
it (alcoholic drinks) was seen flowing through the streets of Medina. At that time the wine was Al-
Fadikh. The people said, “Some people (Muslims) were killed (during the battle of Uhud) while wine
was in their stomachs.” So Allah revealed: “On those who believe and do good deeds there is no blame
for what they ate (in the past).” (5.93)

The Prophet delivered a sermon the like of which I had never heard before. He said, “If you but
knew what I know then you would have laughed little and wept much.” On hearing that, the com –
panions of the Prophet covered their faces and the sound of their weeping was heard. A man said,
“Who is my father?” The Prophet said, “So-and-so.” So this Verse was revealed: “Ask not about things
which, if made plain to you, may cause you trouble.” (5.101)

That his aunt, Ar-Rubai’ broke an incisor tooth of a girl. My aunt’s family requested the girl’s rel –
atives for forgiveness but they refused; then they proposed a compensation, but they refused. Then
they went to Allah’s Apostle and refused everything except Al-Qisas (i.e. equality in punishment). So
Allah’s Apostle passed the judgment of Al-Qisas (i.e. equality of punishment). Anas bin Al-Nadr said,
“O Allah’s Apostle! Will the incisor tooth of Ar-Rubai be broken? No, by Him Who sent you with the
Truth, her incisor tooth will not be broken.” Allah’s Apostle said, “O Anas! The prescribed law of Al –
lah is equality in punishment (i.e. Al-Qisas.)” Thereupon those people became satisfied and forgave
her. Then Allah’s Apostle said, “Among Allah’s Worshippers there are some who, if they took Allah’s
Oath (for something), Allah fulfill their oaths.”

Volume 6, Book 60, Number 3:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, “On the Day of Resurrection the Believers will assemble and say, ‘Let us ask
somebody to intercede for us with our Lord.’ So they will go to Adam and say, ‘You are the father of
all the people, and Allah created you with His Own Hands, and ordered the angels to prostrate to
you, and taught you the names of all things; so please intercede for us with your Lord, so that He
may relieve us from this place of ours.’ Adam will say, ‘I am not fit for this (i.e. intercession for you).’
Then Adam will remember his sin and feel ashamed thereof. He will say, ‘Go to Noah, for he was the
first Apostle, Allah sent to the inhabitants of the earth.’ They will go to him and Noah will say,

‘I am not fit for this undertaking.’ He will remember his appeal to his Lord to do what he had no
knowledge of, then he will feel ashamed thereof and will say, ‘Go to the Khalil–r-Rahman (i.e. Abra –
ham).’ They will go to him and he will say, ‘I am not fit for this undertaking. Go to Moses, the slave to
whom Allah spoke (directly) and gave him the Torah .’ So they will go to him and he will say, ‘I am
not fit for this undertaking.’ and he will mention (his) killing a person who was not a killer, and so
he will feel ashamed thereof before his Lord, and he will say, ‘Go to Jesus, Allah’s Slave, His Apostle
and Allah’s Word and a Spirit coming from Him. Jesus will say, ‘I am not fit for this undertaking, go
to Muhammad the Slave of Allah whose past and future sins were forgiven by Allah.’ So they will
come to me and I will proceed till I will ask my Lord’s Permission and I will be given permission.
When I see my Lord, I will fall down in Prostration and He will let me remain in that state as long as
He wishes and then I will be addressed.’ (Muhammad!) Raise your head. Ask, and your request will
be granted; say, and your saying will be listened to; intercede, and your intercession will be accep –
ted.’ I will raise my head and praise Allah with a saying (i.e. invocation) He will teach me, and then I
will intercede. He will fix a limit for me (to intercede for) whom I will admit into Paradise. Then I
will come back again to Allah, and when I see my Lord, the same thing will happen to me. And then I
will intercede and Allah will fix a limit for me to intercede whom I will let into Paradise, then I will
come back for the third time; and then I will come back for the fourth time, and will say, ‘None re –
mains in Hell but those whom the Quran has imprisoned (in Hell) and who have been destined to an
eternal stay in Hell.’ ” (The compiler) Abu ‘Abdullah said: ‘But those whom the Qur’an has imprisoned
in Hell,’ refers to the Statement of Allah:
“They will dwell therein forever.” (16.29)

Volume 6, Book 60, Number 7:
Narrated Anas:
‘Abdullah bin Salam heard the news of the arrival of Allah’s Apostle (at Medina) while he was on a
farm collecting its fruits. So he came to the Prophet and said, “I will ask you about three things which
nobody knows unless he be a prophet. Firstly, what is the first portent of the Hour? What is the first
meal of the people of Paradise? And what makes a baby look like its father or mother?’. The Prophet
said, “Just now Gabriel has informed me about that.” ‘Abdullah said, “Gabriel?” The Prophet said,
“Yes.” ‘Abdullah said, “He, among the angels is the enemy of the Jews.” On that the Prophet recited this
Holy Verse:–
“Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel (let him die in his fury!) for he has brought it (i.e. Qur’an) down
to your heart by Allah’s permission.” (2.97) Then he added, “As for the first portent of the Hour, it will
be a fire that will collect the people from the East to West. And as for the first meal of the people of
Paradise, it will be the caudite (i.e. extra) lobe of the fish liver. And if a man’s discharge proceeded
that of the woman, then the child resembles the father, and if the woman’s discharge proceeded that
of the man, then the child resembles the mother.” On hearing that, ‘Abdullah said, “I testify that None
has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and that you are the Apostle of Allah, O, Allah’s Apostle; the
Jews are liars, and if they should come to know that I have embraced Islam, they would accuse me of
being a liar.” In the meantime some Jews came (to the Prophet) and he asked them, “What is ‘Abdul –
lah’s status amongst you?” They replied, “He is the best amongst us, and he is our chief and the son of
our chief.” The Prophet said, “What would you think if ‘Abdullah bin Salam embraced Islam?” They
replied, “May Allah protect him from this!” Then ‘Abdullah came out and said, “I testify that None has
the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah.” The Jews then
said, “Abdullah is the worst of us and the son of the worst of us,” and disparaged him. On that ‘Ab –
dullah said, “O Allah’s Apostle! This is what I was afraid of!”
