When the time of the death of the Prophet approached while there were some men in the house,
and among them was ‘Umar bin Al-Khatttab, the Prophet said, “Come near let me write for you a
writing after which you will never go astray.” ‘Umar said, “The Prophet is seriously ill, and you have
the Quran, so Allah’s Book is sufficient for us.” The people in the house differed and disputed. Some
of them said, “Come near so that Allah’s Apostle may write for you a writing after which you will not

go astray,” while some of them said what ‘Umar said. When they made much noise and differed
greatly before the Prophet, he said to them, “Go away and leave me.” Ibn ‘Abbas used to say, “It was a
great disaster that their difference and noise prevented Allah’s Apostle from writing that writing for
them.

When the Prophet sent Muadh to Yemen, he said to him, “You are going to a nation from the
people of the Scripture, so let the first thing to which you will invite them, be the Tauhid of Allah. If
they learn that, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them, five prayers to be offered in one day and
one night. And if they pray, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them Zakat of their properties and it
is to be taken from the rich among them and given to the poor. And if they agree to that, then take
from them Zakat but avoid the best property of the people.”

Um Hufaid bint Al-Harith bin Hazn presented the Prophet with some butter, dried yoghurt (curd
milk) and mastigures as a gift. The Prophet then asked for a meal (mastigures etc. to be put) and it
was eaten over his table cloth, but the Prophet did not eat of it, as he had aversion to it. But if it had
been illegal to eat, it would not have been eaten over his table cloth nor would he have ordered that

Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
I used to teach Qur’an to ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Auf. When Umar performed his last Hajj, ‘Abdur-
Rahman said (to me) at Mina, “Would that you had seen Chief of the believers today! A man came to
him and said, “So-and-so has said, “If Chief of the Believers died, we will give the oath of allegiance
to such-and-such person,’ ‘Umar said, ‘I will get up tonight and warn those who want to usurp the
people’s rights.’ I said, ‘Do not do so, for the season (of Hajj) gathers the riffraff mob who will form
the majority of your audience, and I am afraid that they will not understand (the meaning of) your
saying properly and may spread (an incorrect statement) everywhere. You should wait till we reach
Medina, the place of migration and the place of the Sunna (the Prophet’s Traditions). There you will
meet the companions of Allah’s Apostle from the Muhajirin and the Ansar who will understand your
statement and place it in its proper position’ ‘Umar said, ‘By Allah, I shall do so the first time I stand
(to address the people) in Medina.’ When we reached Medina, ‘Umar (in a Friday Khutba-sermon)
said, “No doubt, Allah sent Muhammad with the Truth and revealed to him the Book (Quran), and
among what was revealed, was the Verse of Ar-Rajm (stoning adulterers to death).'” (See Hadith No.

A woman came to the Prophet and said, “My mother vowed to perform the Hajj but she died be –
fore performing it. Should I perform the Hajj on her behalf?” He said, “Yes! Perform the Hajj on her
behalf. See, if your mother had been in debt, would you have paid her debt?” She said, “Yes.” He said,
“So you should pay what is for Him as Allah has more right that one should fulfill one’s obligations to
Him. “

Narrated Ibn Abbas:
When the delegate of ‘Abd Al-Qais came to Allah’s Apostle, he said, “Who are the delegate?” They
said, “The delegate are from the tribe of Rabi’a.” The Prophet said, “Welcome, O the delegate, and wel –
come! O people! Neither you will have any disgrace nor will you regret.” They said, “O Allah’s
Apostle! Between you and us there are the infidels of the tribe of Mudar, so please order us to do
something good (religious deeds) that by acting on them we may enter Paradise, and that we may in –
form (our people) whom we have left behind, about it.” They also asked (the Prophet) about drinks.
He forbade them from four things and ordered them to do four things. He ordered them to believe in
Allah, and asked them, “Do you know what is meant by belief in Allah?” They said, “Allah and His
Apostle know best.” He said, ”To testify that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, the
One, Who has no partners with Him, and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle; and to offer prayers
perfectly and to pay Zakat.” (the narrator thinks that fasting in Ramadan is included), “and to give
one-fifth of the war booty (to the state).” Then he forbade four (drinking utensils): Ad-Duba’, Al-
Hantam, Al-Mazaffat and An-Naqir, or probably, Al-Muqaiyar. And then the Prophet said, “Remem –
ber all these things by heart and preach it to those whom you have left behind.”
