Volume 6, Book 60, Number 116:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit: That the Prophet dictated to him: “Not equal are those of the believers
who sit (at home) and those who strive and fight in the Cause of Allah.”
Zaid added: Ibn Um Maktum came while the Prophet was dictating to me and said, “O Allah’s
Apostle! By Allah, if I had the power to fight (in Allah’s Cause), I would,” and he was a blind man. So
Allah revealed to his Apostle while his thigh was on my thigh, and his thigh became so heavy that I
was afraid it might fracture my thigh. Then that state of the Prophet passed and Allah revealed:–
“Except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame etc).”
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 379:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
When we wrote the Holy Quran, I missed one of the Verses of Surat-al-Ahzab which I used to
hear Allah’s Apostle reciting. Then we searched for it and found it with Khuzaima bin Thabit Al-An –
sari. The Verse was:–
‘Among the Believers are men Who have been true to Their Covenant with Allah, Of them, some
have fulfilled Their obligations to Allah (i.e. they have been Killed in Allah’s Cause), And some of
them are (still) waiting” (33.23) So we wrote this in its place in the Quran.

SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 5 > BOOK 59: MILITARY EXPEDITIONS LED BY THE PROPHET (PBUH) (AL-MAGHAAZI)
When the Prophet set out for (the battle of) Uhud, some of those who had gone out with him, re –
turned. The companions of the Prophet were divided into two groups. One group said, “We will fight
them (i.e. the enemy),” and the other group said, “We will not fight them.” So there came the Divine
Revelation:– ‘(O Muslims!) Then what is the matter within you that you are divided. Into two parties
about the hypocrites? Allah has cast them back (to disbelief) Because of what they have earned.’
(4.88) On that, the Prophet said, “That is Taiba (i.e. the city of Medina) which clears one from one’s
sins as the fire expels the impurities of silver.”
Volume 3, Book 40, Number 566:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
The Prophet permitted selling the dates of the ‘Araya for ready dates by estimating the amount of
the former (as they are still on the trees).
Volume 3, Book 34, Number 393:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
Allah’s Apostle al lowed the owner of ‘Araya to sell the fruits on the trees by means of estimation.
Volume 3, Book 30, Number 108:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
When the Prophet went out for (the battle of) Uhud, some of his companions (hypocrites) returned
(home). A party of the believers remarked that they would kill those (hypocrites) who had returned,
but another party said that they would not kill them. So, this Divine Inspiration was revealed: “Then
what is the matter with you that you are divided into two parties concerning the hypocrites.” (4.88)
The Prophet said, “Medina expels the bad persons from it, as fire expels the impurities of iron.”
Volume 2, Book 19, Number 179:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
I recited An-Najm before the Prophet, yet he did not perform a prostration.
Volume 1, Book 11, Number 698:
Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
Allah’s Apostle made a small room in the month of Ramadan (Sa’id said, “I think that Zaid bin
Thabit said that it was made of a mat”) and he prayed there for a few nights, and so some of his com –
panions prayed behind him. When he came to know about it, he kept on sitting. In the morning, he
went out to them and said, “I have seen and understood what you did. You should pray in your
houses, for the best prayer of a person is that which he prays in his house except the compulsory
prayers.”
