Chapter 342: About Originals and Miscellany

Translation: 1053. Narrated Al-Nawas ibn Sama'an Al-Kilabi; ' One day, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned Ad-Dajjal mentioning some characters of his in a way that we thought he was very near to us. We went out and returned to him and he has known clearly what we were thinking About. He said: " What is the matter with you? " We said; ' O Messenger of Allah! You have mentioned Al-Dajjal in a way we thought he was in the near palm tree field. " He said: " It is not Al-Dajjal of whom I fear for you (I fear many things other than this such as the deluding delights of life). If he came out while I am still among you, I would argue with him (and confute him). And if he emerged while I am not among you, each one of you would argue with him and I invoke Allah to support each one of you. He is a curly-haired goggle-eyed young man. He resembles Abdul-Ozza ibn Qatan. He that saw him, let him recite the opening verses of the chapter titled " The Cave, number 18. " Al-Nawas said; " The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “ He will emerge between Greater Syria and Iraq. He will spread mischief in the right and the left sides. Servants of Allah! Keep firm. " Al-Nawas said; ' We said; ' How long would he stay on the earth? " The Messenger of Allah said: " He will remain for forty days. One day is as long as a year, one day is as long as a month, one day is as long as a week, and the other days are as long as the days of yours. Al-Nawas said; ' We said; ' Messenger of Allah! Have you seen the day that equals a year, are one day's prayers sufficient for it? " The Messenger of Allah said: " No. You have to perform the prayers during it at the stated times of the daily prayer. " We said; ' How fast will he be Messenger of Allah! ' He said: “ He is as rapid as the clouds when they are driven by wind. He will come to the people and invite them (to worship him) but they will belie him and refute his claim. Thus, their properties will follow him. He will come to them once again and invite them. Seeing that they no longer have had any property, they will respond to him and attest whatever he will tell them. He will order the sky and it will rain and the earth to produce plants and it will do. Their cattle will pasture these plants and return at sunset fatter and give more milk. Then he will come to a swampy land and say to it; ' Vomit your gems and treasures and they will come out and follow him like the bees follow the drone. Then he will summon an energetic young man and smite him with the sword and halve him two parts. Then he will summon that young man and behold! He will come cheerfully and gaily. Thereupon, Jesus will descend in the east of Damascus at the whit minaret putting his hands on two angels ' wings. When he, Jesus, lower his head or raise it drops like pear will fall. None will smell that smile except he dies that smile will reach till the end of his sight. " Al-Nawas said; ' The Messenger of Allah said: " Jesus will chase him and catch him at Lodd Gate (a Place in Damascus) and kill him. Thus, he will remain in this state as

Translation: Allah wills. " Al-Nawas said; ' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: " Allah will inspire in him (Jesus) depart with my servants to At-Toor Mount for I have sent some people no one would be able to fight them. " Al-Nawas said; " The Messenger of Allah said: " Allah will send Gog and Magog. They will be too numerous as Allah has described them:

Translation: " Until the Gog and Magog (people) are let through (their barrier), and they swiftly swarm from every hill ** S: 21-96. The first of them will pass through Tabariyyah Lake and drink its water and the last of them will pass through it and say; " There has been water in this lake. They will resume their march till they reach the mountain in Jerusalem. They will say; ' We have killed those on earth. So, let us kill those in the heaven. ' They will shoot their arrows towards the heaven and Allah will return their arrows reddened of blood. Then Jesus and his host will be besiege till an ox head would be better than 100 Dinars to one of you per today's value. Then Jesus and his host will invoke Allah and Allah will send AN-NAGHAF in their necks and they will fall dead in a time equal to the time of of death of one soul. " Al-Nawas said; ' The Messenger of Allah said: " Jesus N and his host will descend where they will find any space except that it was filled with their bad smell and blood. Then Jesus and his host will invoke Allah and Allah will send some birds with long nicks like those of the camels to carry their bodies and bury them in a very low place on earth. The Muslims will use their arrows as fuel for seven years. Then Allah will send a rain that will leave the earth slippery and as the mirror. Al-Nawas said; " The Messenger of Allah said: " Then, it will be said to the earth produce forth your fruits and blessedness. At that time, a pomegranate will suffice a group of men and they will be shaded under its leaf.

Translation: Cattle will be blessed in a way that a newborn camel will suffice a multitude of men, a newborn calf will suffice a tribe, and a newborn sheep will suffice a moiety. Thereupon, Allah will send wind that will take away each believing soul while the others will have sexual intercourse openly as the zebras do. On these people the Hour will be established. "

Translation: 1054. Narrated Hozayfa ' I heard Allah's Messenger saying: " When Ad-Dajjal appears, he will have fire and water along with him. What the people will consider as fire, will be cold water, and what the people will consider as cold water, will be fire that will burn (things). So, if anyone of you comes across this, he should fall in the thing that will appear to him as fire, for in reality, it will be fresh cold and sweet water. " (Bukhari).

Translation: 1055. Narrated Anas ibn Malek; " The Prophet said: There will be no town in which Ad-Dajjal will not enter except Mecca and Madina, and there will be no entrance (road) (of both Mecca and Madina) but the angels will be standing in rows guarding it against him, and then Madina will shake with its inhabitants thrice (three earthquakes will take place) and Allah will expel all the disbelievers and the hypocrites from it to Al-Dajjal. ” (Bukhari).

Translation: 1056. Narrated Al-Mogheera ibn Sho'aba; ' Nobody asked the Prophet ﷺ as many questions as I asked regarding Al-Dajjal. The Prophet said to me: " What worried you About him. " I said; ' Because people say that he will have a mountain of bread and a river of water with him (i.e. he will have abundance of food and water). " The Prophet said: " Nay, he is too mean to be allowed such a thing by Allah. " (Bukhari).

Translation: 1057. Narrated Ibn Omar; ' The Prophet was asked About Al-Dajjal and he said: “ Beware! Your Lord is not one one-eyed. And behold! Ad-Dajjal is one-eyed. His right eye is like the protruding grape. "

Translation: 1059. Narrated Wa'il ibn Abdullah; ' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “ The first thing to be judged on the Day of Judgement is blood 40 (homicide). " (At-Termizi).

Translation: 39 Imam Muslim has compiled this Hadith with slight difference. It says: " The Euphorates would decrease and a mountain of gold would appear and people would fight each other. Ninty one of each hundred men would be killed. Each one of these hundred people would say: ' It might be that I would be the one whom is liable to be delivered. "

40 This Hadith does not contradict the Hadith that says: " The first thing the servant will be accounted for on the Day of Judgement is the Prayer " because it speaks about Allah's rights (the prayer) while the former speaks about the servants ' rights. It is also said

Translation: 1060. Narrated Obada ibn Al-Samit; ' The Prophet said: " He that liked to meet Allah, Allah liked to meet him. And he that hated to meet Allah, Allah hated to meet him. " (At-Termizi)

Translation: .1061 Narrated Jaber; " The Prophet ﷺ said: “ Beware of entering on Al Mogheebat for Satan circulates within one of you as the blood circulates in his veins. " We said; ' Does he that the first Hadith speaks of the prohibitions while the latter speaks about the commandments.

Translation: circulates within you as well? ' He said: " Yes. But Allah supported me against him so he submitted 141.39 41 " (At-Termizi).

Translation: 1062. Narrated Shaddad ibn Aws; ' The Prophet said: " A prudent person is he that reckons himself before he is being reckoned, and the disabled one is he that follows his vain hopes and whims and relied on them. " (At-Termizi).

It was narrated also that Maymoon ibn Mahran said; ' The servant would not attain piety except in case he reckoned his soul as the one 41 The word " aslam " does not mean that his devil reverted to Islam, but it means that he was turned away from the Prophet, hence the Messenger of Allah will not be harmed by him.

Translation: 1063. Narrated Abu-Thabyan (attributing it to Abu-Zarr); ' Abu-Zarr said; ' The Prophet said: " There are three people whom Allah loves and three peoplwe whom Allah hates. As to the three people whom Allah loves, they are; a man who came to some people and asked them by Allah, not by bood relations between him and them, to give him. They refused to give him save a man who granted him so secretly that none but Allah, and the recipient knew it, a people who traveled by night till they got so tired that nothing but sleep became dearer to them. So, they descended and slept save a man who rose up invoking Me sincerely and reciting My verses, and a man who was engaged in fighting along with his fellows. They were defeated but he confronted the enemy and fought him till he win martyrdom or victory.

Translation: As to the three people who Allah hates, they are; the old man / the one married who commits adultery, the proud poor one, and the wealthy oppressor. " (At-Termizi).

Translation: 1064. Narrated Abu-Huraira; ' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: " If the ruler exerted the due efforts and judged justly, he would have a double reward. And if he exerted the due efforts and judged unjustly, he would have a one-fold reward. " (At-Termizi).

Translation: 1066. Narrated Uday ibn Hatim; ' I came to the Messenger of Allah while he was sitting in the mosque. The people said; This is Uday ibn Hatim. ' Uday said; " When I was brought before the Prophet he held my hand. The Prophet had prayed unto Allah that He would cause us to be hand in hand. Uday added; ' The Prophet rose up and a woman along with an adolescent met him and said that they had a certain need from him. The Prophet responded to what they had asked. Then he accompanied me to his house where the slave girl brought a cushion for him to sit on and I sat before him. The Prophet praised Allah the due praise and said: " What causes you to flee from confessing: " There is naught worthy of worship except Allah? Do you know that there is another god besides Him? " Uday said; ' I said; ' No. ' Uday added; ' The Prophet talked for a short while and said: " Do you refrain from saying: " Allah Akbar, Allah is the Greatest, because you know that there would be anyone greater than Him? " Uday said; ' I said; ' No. ' The Messenger of Allah said: " Really, the Jews have incurred Allah's. wrath and the Christians are misled. " Uday said; " I said; 42 This confirms the interpretation that the Jews are those who incurred Allah's wrath and the Christians are the misled. This is confirmed with the Koran by its statements about the Jews: " And remember when you (the Jews) said: " O Moses! We cannot endure one kind of food (always); so beseech your Lord for us to

Translation: ' But I have come as a Muslim. ' Uday added; ' I saw the Messenger's face beaming out of pleasure. ' Uday said; ' Then the Messenger of Allah ordered that I stay with a man of Al Ansar and I kept on visiting the Messenger of Allah at the two ends of the day. One day, when I was sitting with him, some people wearing striped woolen cloths came to him. The Messenger of Allah performed the prayer and urged the people to give in charity for them. H said: (Give in charity) even if a Sa'a, one half o a Sa'a, or even a handful or less. One of you would keep away his face from Hellfire even if with giving a dried date or one half of a dried date in charity. Verily, each one of you will meet Allah and He will say to him what I am saying to you: " Have not I provided you with hearing sighting? " You will reply; ' Yes indeed. ' He will say to you: " Have not I given you wealth and progeny? " You will reply; ' Yes indeed. ' He will say: " What have you given for this Day? " One of you will look in front of him, behind him, on his right side and on his left side but he will never find anything to take away his face from Hellfire heat. Thus, let produce for us of what the earth grows its pot-herbs, and cucumbers, its garlic, lentils, and onions. " He said: " Will you exchange the better for the worse? Go down to a town (Egypt), and you shall find what you want! " They were covered with humiliation and misery and they drew on themselves the wrath of Allah. This is because they kept on rejecting the signs of Allah and slaying His Messengers without just cause. This is because they rebelled and went on transgressing ** S: 2-61. As to the Christians, the Noble Koran says: " Say: " O People of the Book! Exceed not in your religion the bounds (of what is proper), trespassing beyond the truth, nor follow the vain desires of people who went wrong in times gone by, who misled many, and strayed (themselves) from the even Way ** S: 5-77.

Translation: one of you keep away his face from Hellfire's heat even if with a half of a dried date. If he did not find it, let him keep away his face from Hellfire's heat with a kind word. Actually, I do not fear poverty for you for Allah will give you and support you so abundantly that the traveling woman would travel from Yathrib (Madina) till Al-Hayra or longer than that fearing nothing. " Uday said; ' At that, I said to myself; " Where are the robbers of Tay ' (his tribe)? ' (At-Termizi).

Translation: 1067. Narrated A'isha; ' The Prophet said: " He that vowed to obey Allah let him obey Him and he that vowed to disobey Allah let him not disobey Him. " (At-Termizi).

Translation: Abu-Issa said; " This Hadith is Hasan Saheeh and some people of knowledge of the Prophet's companions and others act on it. This is the opinion of Malek and Al-Shafe'e who said he should not disobey Allah nor is he required to atone for it. "

Translation: 1068. Narrated Abu-Huraira; " Some cooked meat was brought to Allah Messenger and the meat of a forearm was presented to him as he used to like it. He ate a morsel of it and said: “ I will be the master of all the people on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know the reason for it? Allah will gather all the human beings of early generations as well as late generations on one plain so that the announcer will be able to make them all hear his voice and the watcher will be able to see all of them. The sun will come so close to the people that they will suffer severe distress and hardship in a way they will not be able to tolerate it or to bear it. Then the people will say to each other; ' Don't you see, to what state you have reached? Won't you look for someone who can intercede for you with your Lord? " Some people will say; ' Go to Adam. So they will go to Adam and say to him; ' You are the father of mankind; Allah has created you with His Own Hand, and breathed into you of His spirit, and ordered the angels to prostrate before you; and they did, so please! Intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? Don't you see what condition we have reached? " Adam will say: “ This day my Lord has become angry as He has never become before, nor will ever become thereafter. He forbade me (to eat of the fruit of) the Tree, but I disobeyed Him. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else; go to Noah. So, they will go to Noah and say to him; ' O Noah! You are the first Messengers of Allah to the people on the earth, and Allah has named you a thankful servant. Please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' He will say: " Today my Lord has become angry as He has never become before nor will ever become thereafter. I had invoked Allah for an invocation and Allah has granted it in life. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else, go to Ibraheem. " They will go to Ibraheem and say; ' O Ibraheem! You are Allah's Messenger and His drawnnear servant from among the people of the earth; so please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' He will say to them: " My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before, nor will ever become thereafter. I had told three lies. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to some one else. Go to Moses. " The people will then go to Moses and say; ' O Moses! You are Allah's Messenger and Allah has given you superiority Above the others with His Message and with His direct Talk to you. Please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? Moses will say: " My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before, nor will become thereafter, I killed a person whom I had not been ordered to kill. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else. Go to Jesus. " So, they will go to Jesus and say; ' O Jesus! You are Allah's Messenger and His Word (Be. And he was) that He sent to Mary, and a breathe of Him (a soul created by Him), and you talked to the people while still in the cradle. Please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' Jesus will say: " My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before nor will ever become thereafter. Jesus will not mention any sin, but he will say: I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else. Go to Muhammad. So, they will proceed towards me and say; ' O Muhammad! You are Allah's Messenger and the last of the Prophets, and Allah has forgiven your past, present and future sins. So, please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' The Prophet added: " Then I will go beneath Allah's Throne and fall in prostration before my Lord. And then Allah will guide me to such praises and glorifications to Him as He has never guided anybody else before me. Then it will be said: " O Muhammad! Raise your head. Ask, and it will be granted. Intercede! And it (your intercession) will be accepted. " So I will raise my head and say: " My followers O my Lord! My followers O my Lord! My followers O my Lord. " It will be said: " O Muhammad!

Translation: Let those of your followers who have no accounts, enter through the gate in the right side Paradise and they will share the other gates with the people. " The Prophet further said: " By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, the distance between every two gateposts of Paradise is like the distance between Mecca and Hajar or between Mecca and Bosra (in Greater Syria).

Translation: 1069. Narrated Abu-Huraira; ' Allah's Messenger said: " There are three people to whom Allah will not speak on the Day of Resurrection, at whom He will not look, and whom He will not purify, and they will have a painful punishment.

A man who sold a commodity to another person in the afternoon (or after the Afternoon Prayer) and swore to him by Allah that he had. bought it at such and such price and he (the buyer) believed him yet that was not the case. And a man who pledged allegiance to an Imam (ruler) but for the sake of the world (material gains), if the Imâm bestowed on something out of that worldly riches he stood by his allegiance, and if he did not give him, he did not fulfill the allegiance. " (Agreed upon)

What are the jars of Al-Hawdh? ' The Messenger of Allah said: " By Him in Whose hand my soul is, Its jars are more than the stars of the sky in a dark and clear night. They are from the jars of Paradise. He that had a sip of it will never get thirsty. Its width is equal to its length. It is equal the distance from Oman to Aylah. Its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. " The ther narrative states that its width is equal the distance from Kufa to the Black Stone.

Translation: 1091. Narrated Abu-Huraira; ' Some cooked meat was brought to Allah Messenger and the meat of a forearm was presented to him as he used to like it. He ate a morsel of it and said: “ I will be the master of all the people on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know the reason for it? Allah will gather all the human beings of early generations as well as late generations on one plain so that the announcer will be able to make them all hear his voice and the watcher will be able to see all of them. The sun will come so close to the people that they will suffer severe distress and hardship in a way they will not be able to tolerate it or to bear it. Then the people will say to each other; ' Don't you see, to what state you have reached? Won't you look for someone who can intercede for you with your Lord? " Some people will say; ' Go to Adam. ' So they will go to Adam and say to him; ' You are the father of mankind; Allah has created you with His Own Hand, and breathed into you of His spirit, and ordered the angels to prostrate before you; and they did, so please! Intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? Don't you see what condition we have reached? " Adam will say: “ This day my Lord has become angry as He has never become before, nor will ever become thereafter. He forbade me (to eat of the fruit of) the Tree, but I disobeyed Him. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else; go to Noah. ' So, they will go to Noah and say to him; ' O Noah! You are the first Messengers of Allah to the people on the earth, and Allah has named you a thankful servant. Please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' He will say: " Today my Lord has become angry as He has never become before nor will ever become thereafter. I had invoked Allah for an invocation and Allah has granted it in life. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else, go to Ibraheem. " They will go to Ibraheem and say; ' O Ibraheem! You are Allah's Messenger and His drawnnear servant from among the people of the earth; so please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' He will say to them: " My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before, nor will ever become thereafter. I had told three lies. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to some one else. Go to Moses. " The people will then go to Moses and say; ' O Moses! You are Allah's Messenger and Allah has given you superiority above the others with His Message and with His direct Talk to you. Please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' Moses will say: " My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before, nor will become thereafter, I killed a person whom I had not been ordered to kill. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else. Go to Jesus. " So, they will go to Jesus and say; ' O Jesus! You are Allah's Messenger and His Word (Be. And he was) that He sent to Mary, and a breathe of Him (a soul created by Him), and you talked to the people while still in the cradle. Please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? ' Jes us will say: “ My Lord has today become angry as He has never become before nor will ever become thereafter. Jesus will not mention any sin, but he will say: I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. I invoke Allah only for myself. Go to someone else. Go to Muhammad. So, they will come to me and say; ' O Muhammad! You are Allah's Messenger and the last of the Prophets, and Allah has forgiven your past, present and future sins. So, please intercede for us with your Lord. Don't you see in what state we are? " The Prophet added: " Then I will go beneath Allah's Throne and fall in prostration before my Lord. And then Allah will guide me to such praises and glorifications to Him as He has never guided anybody else before me. Then it will be said: " O Muhammad! Raise your head. Ask, and it will be granted. Intercede! And it (your intercession) will be accepted. " So I will raise my head and say: " My followers O my Lord! My followers O my Lord! My followers O my Lord. " It will be said: " O Muhammad! Let those of your followers who have no accounts, enter through the gate in the right side Paradise and they will share the other gates with the people. ” The Prophet further said: “ By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, the distance between every two gateposts of Paradise is like the distance between Mecca and Hajar or between Mecca and Bosra (in Greater Syria)

Translation: 1092. Narrated Ibn Abbas may Allah be pleased with them; The first female to use the girdle was the mother of Isma'eel (Ishmael). She used a girdle so that she might hide her tracks from Sarah. Abraham brought her and her son Isma'eel (Ishmael), while she used to nurse him at her breast, to a place near Ka'aba under a tree near the spring of Zamzam, at the highest place in the mosque. During those days there was nobody in Mecca nor was there any water. So he made them sit over there and placed near them a leather bag containing some dates, and a small waterskin containing some water, and set out homeward. Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) mother followed him saying; ' O Abraham! Where are you going, leaving us in this valley where there is no person whose company we may enjoy, nor is there anything (to enjoy)? She repeated that to him many times, but he did not look back at her. Then she asked him; ' Has Allah ordered you to do so? " He said: " Yes. " She said; ' Then, He will not neglect us, and returned to her place while Abraham proceeded onwards, and on reaching the Ath-Thaniyah where they could not see him, he faced Ka'aba, and raising both hands, invoked Allah saying the following supplication:

Translation: " O our Lord! I have made some of my offspring to dwell in an uncultivable valley at Your Sacred House (Ka'aba at Mecca) O our Lord, that they may perform the prayer. So fill some hearts among men with love towards them, and (O Allah) provide them with fruits so that they may give thanks * S: 14-37. Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) mother went on suckling Isma'eel (Ishmael) and drinking from the water (she had). When the water in the waterskin had all been used up, she became thirsty and her child also became thirsty. She started looking at him (Isma'eel (Ishmael)) tossing in agony; she left him, for she could not endure looking at him, and found that the mountain of Al-Safa was the nearest mountain to her on that land. She stood on it and started looking at the valley keenly so that she might see somebody, but she could not see anybody. Then she descended from Al-Safa and when she reached the valley, she tucked up her robe and ran in the valley like a person in distress and trouble, till she crossed the valley and reached Al Marwah mountain where she stood and started looking, expecting to see somebody, but she could not see anybody. She repeated that (running between Al-Safa and Al-Marwa) seven times. Ibn Abbas said; " The Prophet said: This is the source of the tradition of Al-Sa'iyo of the people between them (i.e. Al-Safa and Al-Marwa). When she reached Al Marwah (for the last time) she heard a voice and she asked herself to be quiet and listened attentively. She heard the voice again and said; ' O, (whoever you may be)! You have made me hear your voice. Have you got something to help me? And behold! She saw an angel at the place of Zamzam, digging the earth with his heel (or his wing), till water flowed from that place. She started to make something like a basin around it, using her hands in this way, and started. filling her waterskin with water with her hands. The water was flowing out after she had scooped some of it. The Prophet added: " May Allah bestow mercy on Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) mother! Had she let Zamzam (flow without trying to control it) (or had she not scooped from that water) (to fill her waterskin), Zamzam would have been a stream flowing on the surface of the earth. The Prophet further added: “ Then, she drank (water) and suckled her child. The angel said to her: " Don't be afraid of being neglected, for this is the House of Allah that will be built by this boy and his father, and Allah never neglects His devotees. " The House (Ka'aba) at that time was on a high place resembling a hillock, and when torrents came, they flowed to its right and left. She lived in that way till some people from the tribe of Jorhom or a family from Jorhom passed by her and her child, as they, the Jorhom people were coming through the way of Kada '. They landed in the lower part of Mecca where they saw a bird that had the habit of flying around water and not leaving it. They said; ' This bird must be flying around water, though we know that there is no water in this valley. ' They sent one or two corriers who discovered the source of water, and returned to inform them of the water. So, they all came (towards the water). The Prophet added: " Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) mother was sitting near the water. They asked her; ' Do you allow us to stay with you? " She replied; ' Yes, but you will have no right to possess the water. ' They agreed upon that. The Prophet further said: " Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) mother was pleased with the whole situation as she used to love to enjoy the company of the people. So, they settled there, and later on they sent for their families who came and settled with them so that some families became permanent residents there. The child (Isma'eel (Ishmael)) grew up and learnt Arabic from them and (his virtues) caused them to love and admire him as he grew up. When he reached the age of puberty they made him marry a woman from amongst them. After Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) mother had died, Abraham came after Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) marriage in order to see his family that he had left before, but he did not find Isma'eel (Ishmael) there. When he asked Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) wife About him, she replied; ' He has gone in search of our livelihood. ' Then he asked her About their way of living and their condition, and she replied; ' We are living in misery; we are living in hardship and destitution, ' complaining to him. He said: " When your husband returns, convey my salutation to him and tell him to change the threshold of the gate (of his house). " When Isma'eel (Ishmael) came, he seemed to have felt something unusual, so he asked his wife: " Has anyone visited you? " She replied; ' Yes, an old man of so and so description came and asked me About you and I informed. him, and he asked About our state of living, and I told him that we were living in hardship and poverty. ' At that Isma'eel (Ishmael) said: " Did he advise you anything? " She replied; ' Yes, he told me to convey his salutation to you and to tell you to change the threshold of your gate. ' Isma'eel (Ishmael) said: ' It was my father, and he has ordered me to divorce you. Go back to your family. " So, Isma'eel (Ishmael) divorced her and got married to another woman from amongst them (Jorhom tribe). Then Abraham stayed away from them for a period as long as Allah willed and called on them again but did not find Isma'eel (Ishmael). So he came to Isma'eel's (Ishmael's) wife and asked her About Isma'eel (Ishmael). She said, ' He has gone in search of our livelihood. ' Abraham asked her About their sustenance and living. She replied; ' We are prosperous and well off (we have everything in abundance). Then she thanked Allah. Abraham said: " What kind of food do you eat? " She said; ' Meat. ' He said: " What do you drink? " She said; ' Water. " He said: " O Allah! Bless their meat and water. " The Prophet added: " At that time they did not have grain, and if they had grain, he would have also invoked Allah to bless it. The Prophet added: " If somebody has only these two things as his sustenance, his health and disposition will be badly affected, unless he lives in Mecca. The Prophet added: " Then, Abraham said to Isma'eel's wife: " When your husband comes, give my regards to him and tell him that he should keep firm the threshold of his gate. " When Isma'eel (Ishmael) came back, he asked his wife: " Did anyone call on us? " She replied; ' Yes, a goodlooking old man came to me. ' She praised him and added; ' He asked About you, and I informed him, and he asked About our livelihood and I told him that we were in a good condition. ' Isma'eel (Ishmael) asked her: “ Did he give you any piece of advice? " She said; ' Yes. He told me to give his regards to you and ordered that you should keep firm the threshold of your gate. ' At that Isma'eel (Ishmael) said: " It was my father, and you are the threshold (of the gate). He has ordered me to keep you with me. " Then Abraham stayed away from them for a period as long as Allah willed, and called on them afterwards. He saw Isma'eel (Ishmael) under a tree near Zamzam, sharpening his arrows. When he saw Abraham, he rose up to welcome him (and they greeted each other as a father does with his son or a son does with his father). Abraham said: " O Isma'eel (Ishmael)! Allah has given. me an order. " Isma'eel (Ishmael) said: " Do what your Lord has ordered you to do. " Abraham asked: " Will you help me? " Isma'eel (Ishmael) said: " I will help you. " Abraham said: " Allah has ordered me to build a house here, pointing to a hillock higher than the land surrounding it. " The Prophet added: " Then, they raised the foundations of the House (Ka'aba). Isma'eel (Ishmael) brought the stones and Abraham raised the foundations of the House of Allah. When the walls became high, Isma'eel (Ishmael) brought this stone and put it for Abraham who stood over it and carried on building, while Isma'eel (Ishmael) was handing him the stones, and both of them were saying:

Translation: " And (remember) when Abraham and (his son) Isma'eel (Ishmael) were raising the foundations of the House (the Ka'aba at Mecca praying): " Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us. Verily! You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knower * " S: 2-127.

Translation: 1093. Narrated Sa'eed ibn Amer; " The pressed dates are similar to the fruit of Paradise. It is a remedy of poison. And truffle is of manna and its water cures the eye. " (At-Termizi).

Translation: 1094. Narrated Oqba ibn Amer; Allah's Messenger offered the funeral prayers of the martyrs of Ohod eight years after (their death) as if bidding farewell to the living and the dead, then he ascended the pulpit and said: " I am your vanguard, and I am a witness over you, and your promised place to meet me, will be Al Hawdh (The Fountain) (on the Day of Resurrection), and I am (now) looking at it from this place of mine. I am not afraid that you will worship other besides Allah, but I am afraid that worldly life will tempt you and cause you to compete with each other for it. " (Bukhari).
