Volume 1, Book 4, Number 217:
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
The Prophet once passed by two graves and said, “These two persons are being tortured not for a
major sin (to avoid). One of them never saved himself from being soiled with his urine, while the
other used to go about with calumnies(to make enmity between friends).” The Prophet then took a
green leaf of a date-palm tree, split it into (pieces) and fixed one on each grave. They said, “O Allah’s
Apostle! Why have you done so?” He replied, “I hope that their punishment might be lessened till
these (the pieces of the leaf) become dry.” (See the foot-note of Hadith 215).

I stayed overnight in the house of my aunt Maimuna bint Al-Harith (the wife of the Prophet )
while the Prophet was there with her during her night turn. The Prophet offered the ‘Isha’ prayer (in
the mosque), returned home and after having prayed four Rakat, he slept. Later on he got up at night
and then asked whether the boy (or he used a similar word) had slept? Then he got up for the prayer
and I stood up by his left side but he made me stand to his right and offered five Rakat followed by
two more Rakat. Then he slept and I heard him snoring and then (after a while) he left for the (Fajr)
prayer.
