Sayings of the Messenger احادیثِ رسول اللہ ﷺ

حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لاَ يَنَامُ حَتَّى يَقْرَأَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَالزُّمَرَ.

Aishah (RA) said: "The Prophet ﷺ would not sleep before reciting Surat Bani Isra'il and Az-Zumar."

حَدَّثَنَا عَليُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا بَقِيَّةُ بْنُ الوَلِيدِ، عَنْ بَحِيرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي بِلاَلٍ، عَنْ عِرْبَاضِ بْنِ سَارِيَةَ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ الْمُسَبِّحَاتِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْقُدَ وَيَقُولُ: إِنَّ فِيهِنَّ آيَةً خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ آيَةٍ.

Narrated from Irbad bin Sariyah (RA) that the Prophet ﷺ used to recite the Musabbihat (Chapters 17, 57, 59, 61-64 & 87) before sleeping and say "Indeed there is an Ayah in them that is better than one thousand Ayat."

حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ أَبُو العَلاَءِ الخَفَّافُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعُ بْنُ أَبِي نَافِعٍ، عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: مَنْ قَالَ حِينَ يُصْبِحُ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ: أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ السَّمِيعِ العَلِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ وَقَرَأَ ثَلاَثَ آيَاتٍ مِنْ آخِرِ سُورَةِ الحَشْرِ وَكَّلَ اللَّهُ بِهِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى يُمْسِيَ، وَإِنْ مَاتَ فِي ذَلِكَ اليَوْمِ مَاتَ شَهِيدًا، وَمَنْ قَالَهَا حِينَ يُمْسِي كَانَ بِتِلْكَ الْمَنْزِلَةِ.

Narrated from Ma'qil bin Yasar (RA) that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever says three times while entering the morning: I seek refuge in Allah the all-Hearing the All-knowing from the accursed devil ' and he recites three Ayat from the end of Surah Al-Hashr - Allah appoints seventy-thousand angels who say Salah upon him until the evening. If he dies on that day, he dies a martyr, and whoever says it in the evening, he holds the same status."

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ مَمْلَكٍ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ قِرَاءَةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَلاَتِهِ، فَقَالَتْ: مَا لَكُمْ وَصَلاَتَهُ؟ كَانَ يُصَلِّي ثُمَّ يَنَامُ قَدْرَ مَا صَلَّى، ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي قَدْرَ مَا نَامَ، ثُمَّ يَنَامُ قَدْرَ مَا صَلَّى حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ، ثُمَّ نَعَتَتْ قِرَاءَتَهُ، فَإِذَا هِيَ تَنْعَتُ قِرَاءَةً مُفَسَّرَةً حَرْفًا حَرْفًا.

Narrated from Ya'la bin Mamlak that he asked Umm Salamah (RA), the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, regarding the recitation of the Prophet ﷺ and his Salah. She said: "What can you do in comparison to his Salah? He used to pray and then sleep as long as he had prayed. Then he would pray as long as he had slept. Then he would pray as long as he had slept. Then he slept as long as he had prayed until the morning.' Then she described his recitation. So, she described his recitation as word by word."

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَيْسٍ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ وِتْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَيْفَ كَانَ يُوتِرُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ اللَّيْلِ أَمْ مِنْ آخِرِهِ؟ فَقَالَتْ: كُلُّ ذَلِكَ قَدْ كَانَ يَصْنَعُ، رُبَّمَا أَوْتَرَ مِنْ أَوَّلِ اللَّيْلِ، وَرُبَّمَا أَوْتَرَ مِنْ آخِرِهِ. قُلْتُ: الحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي الأَمْرِ سَعَةً، فَقُلْتُ: كَيْفَ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُهُ؟ أَكَانَ يُسِرُّ بِالقِرَاءَةِ أَمْ يَجْهَرُ؟ قَالَتْ: كُلُّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ، قَدْ كَانَ رُبَّمَا أَسَرَّ وَرُبَّمَا جَهَرَ. قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: الحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي الأَمْرِ سَعَةً قَالَ: قُلْتُ: فَكَيْفَ كَانَ يَصْنَعُ فِي الجَنَابَةِ؟ أَكَانَ يَغْتَسِلُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنَامَ، أَمْ يَنَامُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ؟ قَالَتْ: كُلُّ ذَلِكَ قَدْ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ، فَرُبَّمَا اغْتَسَلَ فَنَامَ، وَرُبَّمَا تَوَضَّأَ فَنَامَ. قُلْتُ: الحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي الأَمْرِ سَعَةً.

Abdullah bin Abi Qais [A man from Al-Basrah] said "I asked Aishah (RA) concerning the Witr of the Apostle of Allah ﷺ, how would he offer Witr, was it during the first part of the night or the end of it? She said: 'All of that. Sometimes he would offer Witr during the first part of the night, and sometimes he would offer Witr during the end of it.' So, I said: ‘All praise belongs to Allah Who allowed latitude in religion.' I said: 'How was his recitation, was he quiet with recitations or loud?' She said: 'He would do all of that. Sometimes he would recite quietly and sometimes aloud.' I said: ‘All praise belongs to Allah Who allowed latitude in religion. He said: 'I said: 'How would he deal with sexual impurity? Would he perform Ghusl prior to sleeping or would he sleep prior to Ghusl?' She said: 'He would do all of that. Sometimes he would perform Ghusl then sleep, and sometimes he would perform Wudu and then sleep.' I said: ‘All praise belongs to Allah Who allowed latitude in religion.'"

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الجَعْدِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ يَعْرِضُ نَفْسَهُ بِالْمَوْقِفِ، فَقَالَ: أَلاَ رَجُلٌ يَحْمِلْنِي إِلَى قَوْمِهِ؟ فَإِنَّ قُرَيْشًا قَدْ مَنَعُونِي أَنْ أُبَلِّغَ كَلاَمَ رَبِّي.

Jabir bin Abdullah (RA) said: "During the Mawqif (hajj season), the Prophet ﷺ would present himself and say: 'Which man will bring me to his people? For indeed the Quraish have prevented me from conveying the Speech of my Lord.'"
