He then said, “Whoever likes toask me about anything he can do so and I shall reply as long asI am at this place of mine. Most of the people wept and theProphet said repeatedly, “Ask me.” Abdullah bin Hudhafa AsSahmi stood up and said, “Who is my father?” The Prophet said,”Your father is Hudhafa.” The Prophet repeatedly said, “Ask me.”Then Umar knelt before him and said, “We are pleased withAllah as our Lord, Islam as our religion, and Muhammad as ourProphet.” The Prophet then became quiet and said,”paradise and Hellfire were displayed in front of me on thiswall just now and I have never seen a better thing (than theformer) and a worse thing (than the latter).” (Volume 1, Book 10,Number 515 )

Indeed, one of them never saved himself from beingsoiled with his urine while the other used to go about withcalumnies (to make enmiy between friends). The Prophet then asked for a green leaf of a date palm tree, broke it into two pieces and put one on each grave.

In the morning the people went toAllah’s Apostle and everyone of them was hopeful to receive it(i.e. the flag). The Prophet said, “Where is Ali bin Abi Talib?” Itwas said, “He is suffering from eye trouble O Allah’s Apostle.”He said, “Send for him.” ‘Ali was brought and Allah’s Apostlespat in his eye and invoked good upon him. So ‘Ali was cured asif he never had any trouble. Then the Prophet gave him theflag. ‘Ali said “O Allah’s Apostle!

Therefore, I lay in wait for him and he came andonce more began to take handfuls of food. I seized him andsaid, ‘I will take you to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah blesshim and grant him peace!’ He said, ‘Let me go. I am in need andhave a large family. I will not come back again.’ I had mercy onhim and let him go his way.

I grabbed him and said, ‘I will take you to theMessenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace!This is the third time. You claimed you would not come backand then you came back.’ He said, ‘Let me go. I will teach yousome words which will help you with Allah.’ I said, ‘What arethey?’ He said, ‘When you go to bed, recite the Throne Verse,”Allah, there is no god but Him, the Living, the SelfSustaining…” to the end of the ayat. You will have someoneguarding over you from Allah and shaytan will not come nearyou until morning.’ So I let him go his way. In the morning, theMessenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,said to me, ‘What did you do with your prisoner yesterday?’ Isaid, ‘Messenger of Allah, he claimed that he would teach mesome words which would help me with Allah, so I let him gohis way.’ He said, ‘What are they?’ I said, ‘He said to me, “Whenyou go to bed, recite the Throne Verse to the end: ‘Allah, there isno god but Him, the Living, the SelfSustaining’.” He said to me,”You will have someone guarding over you from Allah andshaytan will not come near you until morning.”‘ (They wereexceedingly eager for good.) The Prophet, may Allah bless himand grant him peace, said, “He told you the truth even thoughhe is a liar.

(When Zainab bint Jahsh died first of all in thecaliphate of ‘Umar), we came to know that the long hand was asymbol of practicing charity, so she was the first to follow theProphet and she used to love to practice charity. (Sauda diedlater in the caliphate of Muawiya). (Volume 2, Book 24, Number501)

Somebody said, “None hasbenefited the Muslims today more than soandso.” On thatAllah’s Apostle said, “He is from the people of the HellFirecertainly.” A man amongst the people (i.e. Muslims) said, “I willaccompany him (to know the fact).” So he went along with him,and whenever he stopped he stopped with him, and wheneverhe hastened, he hastened with him. The (brave) man then gotwounded severely, and seeking to die at once, he planted hissword into the ground and put its point against his chest inbetween his breasts, and then threw himself on it andcommitted suicide. On that the person (who wasaccompanying the deceased all the time) came to Allah’sApostle and said, “I testify that you are the Apostle of Allah.” TheProphet said, “Why is that (what makes you say so)?” He said “Itis concerning the man whom you have already mentioned asone of the dwellers of the HellFire. The people were surprisedby your statement, and I said to them, “I will try to find out thetruth about him for you.” So I went out after him and he wasthen inflicted with a severe wound and because of that, hehurried to bring death upon himself by planting the handle ofhis sword into the ground and directing its tip towards hischest between his breasts, and then he threw himself over itand committed suicide.” Allah’s Apostle then said, “A man maydo what seem to the people as the deeds of the dwellers ofParadise but he is from the dwellers of the HellFire andanother may do what seem to the people as the deeds of thedwellers of the HellFire, but he is from the dwellers ofParadise.”( Volume 5, Book 59, Number 514)

Whilethe slave was dismounting the saddle of Allah’s Apostle anarrow the thrower of which was unknown, came and hit him.The people said, “Congratulations to him for the martyrdom.”Allah’s Apostle said, “No, by Him in Whose Hand my soul is, thesheet (of cloth) which he had taken (illegally) on the day ofKhaibar from the booty before the distribution of the booty, hasbecome a flame of Fire burning him.” On hearing that, a manbrought one or two leather straps of shoes to the Prophet andsaid, “These are things I took (illegally).” On that Allah’s Apostlesaid, “This is a strap, or these are two straps of Fire.”( Volume 5,Book 59, Number 541)

While the pagans were deeply asleep.” (Volume 2, Book 21,Number 254)
21.Aware of hidden objects:Narrated by ‘Ali (Razi allahu anhu)Allah’s Apostle sent me, Abu Marthad and AzZubair, and all ofus were riding horses, and said, “Go till you reach RaudatKhakh where there is a pagan woman carrying a letter fromHatib bin Abi Balta’ a to the pagans of Mecca.” So we found herriding her camel at the place which Allah’s Apostle hadmentioned. We said (to her),”(Give us) the letter.” She said, “Ihave no letter.” Then we made her camel kneel down and wesearched her, but we found no letter. Then we said, “Allah’sApostle had not told us a lie, certainly. Take out the letter,otherwise we will strip you naked.” When she saw that wewere determined, she put her hand below her waist belt, forshe had tied her cloak round her waist, and she took out theletter, and we brought her to Allah’s Apostle Then ‘Umar said,”O Allah’s Apostle! (This Hatib) has betrayed Allah, His Apostleand the believers! Let me cut off his neck!” The Prophet askedHatib, “What made you do this?” Hatib said, “By Allah, I did notintend to give up my belief in Allah and His Apostle but Iwanted to have some influence among the (Mecca) people sothat through it, Allah might protect my family and property.There is none of your companions but has some of his relativesthere through whom Allah protects his family and property.”The Prophet said, “He has spoken the truth; do no say to himbut good.” ‘Umar said, “He as betrayed Allah, His Apostle andthe faithful believers. Let me cut off his neck!” The Prophet said,”Is he not one of the Badr warriors? May be Allah looked at theBadr warriors and said, ‘Do whatever you like, as I havegranted Paradise to you, or said, ‘I have forgiven you.”‘ On this,tears came out of Umar’s eyes, and he said, “Allah and HisApostle know better.”( Volume 5, Book 59, Number 319)
22.Seeing the of events of makkahfrom madinah:Narrated by Abu Huraira (Razi allahu anhu)Allah’s Apostle sent a Sariya of ten men as spies under theleadership of ‘Asim bin Thabit alAnsari, the grandfather of’Asim bin Umar AlKhattab. They proceeded till they reachedHadaa, a place between ‘Usfan, and Mecca, and their newsreached a branch of the tribe of Hudhail called Bani Lihyan.About twohundred men, who were all archers, hurried tofollow their tracks till they found the place where they hadeaten dates they had brought with them from Medina. Theysaid, “These are the dates of Yathrib (i.e. Medina), “andcontinued following their tracks When ‘Asim and hiscompanions saw their pursuers, they went up a high place andthe infidels circled them. The infidels said to them, “Come downand surrender, and we promise and guarantee you that we willnot kill any one of you” ‘Asim bin Thabit; the leader of theSariya said, “By Allah! I will not come down to be under theprotection of infidels. O Allah! Convey our news to YourProphet. Then the infidels threw arrows at them till theymartyred ‘Asim along with six other men, and three men camedown accepting their promise and convention, and they wereKhubaibalAnsari and Ibn Dathina and another man So, whenthe infidels captured them, they undid the strings of their bowsand tied them. Then the third (of the captives) said, “This is thefirst betrayal. By Allah! I will not go with you. No doubt these,namely the martyred, have set a good example to us.” So, theydragged him and tried to compel him to accompany them, butas he refused, they killed him. They took Khubaid and IbnDathina with them and sold them (as slaves) in Mecca (and allthat took place) after the battle of Badr. Khubaib was bought bythe sons of AlHarith bin ‘Amir bin Naufal bin ‘Abd Manaf. Itwas Khubaib who had killed AlHarith bin ‘Amir on the day (ofthe battle of) Badr. So, Khubaib remained a prisoner with thosepeople. Narrated AzZuhri: ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Iyyad said that thedaughter of AlHarith had told him, “When those peoplegathered (to kill Khubaib) he borrowed a razor from me toshave his pubes and I gave it to him. Then he took a son ofmine while I was unaware when he came upon him. I saw himplacing my son on his thigh and the razor was in his hand. Igot scared so much that Khubaib noticed the agitation on myface and said, ‘Are you afraid that I will kill him? No, I willnever do so.’ By Allah, I never saw a prisoner better thanKhubaib. By Allah, one day I saw him eating of a bunch ofgrapes in his hand while he was chained in irons, and therewas no fruit at that time in Mecca.” The daughter of AlHarithused to say, “It was a boon Allah bestowed upon Khubaib.”When they took him out of the Sanctuary (of Mecca) to kill himoutside its boundaries, Khubaib requested them to let him offertwo Rakat (prayer). They allowed him and he offered TwoRakat and then said, “Hadn’t I been afraid that you would thinkthat I was afraid (of being killed), I would have prolonged theprayer. O Allah, kill them all with no exception.” (He thenrecited the poetic verse): “I being martyred as a Muslim, Donot mind how I am killed in Allah’s Cause, For my killing is forAllah’s Sake, And if Allah wishes, He will bless the amputatedparts of a torn body” Then the son of Al Harith killed him. So, itwas Khubaib who set the tradition for any Muslim sentenced todeath in captivity, to offer a twoRak’at prayer (before beingkilled). Allah fulfilled the invocation of Asim bin Thabit on thatvery day on which he was martyred. The Prophet informed hiscompanions of their news and what had happened to them.Later on when some infidels from Quraish were informed thatAsim had been killed, they sent some people to fetch a part ofhis body (i.e. his head) by which he would be recognized. (Thatwas because) ‘Asim had killed one of their chiefs on the day (ofthe battle) of Badr. So, a swarm of wasps, resembling a shadycloud, were sent to hover over Asim and protect him from theirmessenger and thus they could not cut off anything from hisflesh.(Volume 4, Book 52, Number 281)
23.knowledge of the Future:Narrated by Sulaiman bin Surd (Razi allahu anhu)On the day of AlAhzab (i.e. clans) the Prophet said, (After thisbattle) we will go to attack them(i.e. the infidels) and they willnot come to attack us again”( Volume 5, Book 59, Number 435)

I went carrying it and found Allah’s Apostle in theMosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Allah’sApostle asked, “Has Abu Talha sent you?” I said, “Yes”. He asked,”With some food? I said, “Yes” Allah’s Apostle then said to themen around him, “Get up!” He set out (accompanied by them)and I went ahead of them till I reached Abu Talha and told him(of the Prophet’s visit). Abu Talha said, “O Um Sulaim! Allah’sApostle is coming with the people and we have no food to feedthem.” She said, “Allah and His Apostle know better.” So AbuTalha went out to receive Allah’s Apostle. Allah’s Apostle camealong with Abu Talha. Allah’s Apostle said, “O Um Sulaim!Bring whatever you have.” She brought the bread which Allah’sApostle ordered to be broken into pieces. Um Sulaim poured onthem some butter from an oilskin. Then Allah’s Apostle recitedwhat Allah wished him to recite, and then said, “Let ten personscome (to share the meal).” Ten persons were admitted, ate theirfill and went out. Then he again said, “Let another ten do thesame.” They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then heagain said, ‘”‘Let another ten persons (do the same.)” They wereadmitted, ate their fill and went out.

And any of you, when meeting Allah, will meet Himwithout needing an interpreter between him and Allah tointerpret for him, and Allah will say to him: ‘Didn’t I send amessenger to teach you?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’ Allah will say:’Didn’t I give you wealth and do you favors?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’Then he will look to his right and see nothing but Hell, andlook to his left and see nothing but Hell.” ‘Adi further said: Iheard the Prophet saying, “Save yourself from the (Hell) Fireeven with half a date (to be given in charity) and if you do notfind a half date, then with a good pleasant word.” ‘Adi added:(later on) I saw a lady in a Howdah traveling from AlHira tillshe performed the Tawaf of the Ka’ba, fearing none but Allah.And I was one of those who opened (conquered) the treasuresof Khosrau, son of Hurmuz.

You need not fear those(afflictions) as there is a closed door between you and them.”‘Umar asked, “Will that door be opened or broken?” Hudhaifareplied, “No, it will be broken.” ‘Umar said, “Then it is very likelythat the door will not be closed again.” Later on the peopleasked Hudhaifa, “Did ‘Umar know what that door meant?” Hesaid. “Yes, ‘Umar knew it as everyone knows that there will benight before the tomorrow morning. I narrated to ‘Umar anauthentic narration, not lies.” We dared not ask Hudhaifa;therefore we requested Masruq who asked him, “What does thedoor stand for?” He said, “Umar.”( Volume 4, Book 56, Number786)
31.Sahabi foretelling his martyrdom aday before battle of Uhud :Narrated by Jabir (Razi Allahu anhu):When the time of the Battle of Uhud approached, my fathercalled me at night and said, “I think that I will be the firstamongst the companions of the Prophet to be martyred.

33.Details about the Hour (End of theworld):Narrated by Abu Huraira(Razi Allahu anhu):The Prophet said, “The Hour will not be established till youfight with the Khudh and the Kirman from among the nonArabs. They will be of red faces, flat noses and small eyes; theirfaces will look like flat shields, and their shoes will be of hair.”(Volume 4, Book 56, Number 788)
34.Foretelling the Afflictions offuture:Narrated AzZubair bin ‘Adi (Razi Allahu anhu):We went to Anas bin Malik and complained about the wrongwe were suffering at the hand of AlHajjaj. Anas bin Maliksaid, “Be patient till you meet your Lord, for no time will comeupon you but the time following it will be worse than it. Iheard that from the Prophet.”( Volume 9, Book 88, Number 188)

38.Informing about emergence ofmisguided people:Narrated by Abu Said AlKhudri(Razi allahu anhu)While we were with Allah’s Apostle who was distributing (i.e.some property), there came DhulKhuwaisira, a man from thetribe of Bani Tamim and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Do Justice.”The Prophet said, “Woe to you! Who could do justice if I didnot? I would be a desperate loser if I did not do justice.” ‘Umarsaid, “O Allah’s Apostle! Allow me to chop his head off.” TheProphet said, “Leave him, for he has companions who pray andfast in such a way that you will consider your fasting negligiblein comparison to theirs. They recite Qur’an but it does not gobeyond their throats (i.e. they do not act on it) and they willdesert Islam as an arrow goes through a victim’s body, so thatthe hunter, on looking at the arrow’s blade, would see nothingon it; he would look at its Risaf and see nothing: he would lookat its Na,di and see nothing, and he would look at its Qudhadh (1 ) and see nothing (neither meat nor blood), for the arrow hasbeen too fast even for the blood and excretions to smear. Thesign by which they will be recognized is that among them therewill be a black man, one of whose arms will resemble awoman’s breast or a lump of meat moving loosely. Those peoplewill appear when there will be differences amongst the people.”I testify that I heard this narration from Allah’s Apostle and Itestify that ‘Ali bin Abi Talib fought with such people, and I wasin his company. He ordered that the man (described by theProphet ) should be looked for. The man was brought and Ilooked at him and noticed that he looked exactly as the Prophethad described him.( Volume 4, Book 56, Number 807)
39.Informing about the emergence of?Head of Satan@ from Najd:Narrated Ibn ‘Umar: (Razi allahu anhu)The Prophet said, “O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on ourSham! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen.” ThePeople said, “And also on our Najd.” He said, “O Allah! BestowYour blessings on our Sham (north)! O Allah! Bestow Yourblessings on our Yemen.” The people said, “O Allah’s Apostle!And also on our Najd.” I think the third time the Prophet said,”There (in Najd) is the place of earthquakes and afflictions andfrom there comes out the side of the head of Satan.”( Volume 9,Book 88, Number 214)40.Informing about the last man tojannahNarrated Abu Huraira (Razi Allahu anhu):On the Day of Resurrection, people will be gathered and Hewill order the people to follow what they used to worship. Sosome of them will follow the sun, some will follow the moon,and some will follow other deities; and only this nation(Muslims) will be left with its hypocrites. Allah will come tothem and say, ‘I am Your Lord.’ They will say, ‘We shall stay inthis place till our Lord comes to us and when our Lord willcome, we will recognize Him. Then Allah will come to themagain and say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say, ‘You are ourLord.’ Allah will call them, and AsSirat (a bridge) will be laidacross Hell and I (Muhammad) shall be the first amongst theApostles to cross it with my followers. Nobody except theApostles will then be able to speak and they will be saying then,’O Allah! Save us. O Allah Save us.’ There will be hooks like thethorns of Sa’dan in Hell. Have you seen the thorns of Sa’dan?”The people said, “Yes.” He said, “These hooks will be like thethorns of Sa’dan but nobody except Allah knows their greatnessin size and these will entangle the people according to theirdeeds; some of them will fall and stay in Hell forever; otherswill receive punishment (torn into small pieces) and will getout of Hell, till when Allah intends mercy on whomever Helikes amongst the people of Hell, He will order the angels totake out of Hell those who worshipped none but Him alone.The angels will take them out by recognizing them from thetraces of prostrations, for Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire toeat away those traces. So they will come out of the Fire, it willeat away from the whole of the human body except the marksof the prostrations. At that time they will come out of the Fire asmere skeletons. The Water of Life will be poured on them andas a result they will grow like the seeds growing on the bank offlowing water. Then when Allah had finished from theJudgments amongst his creations, one man will be left betweenHell and paradise and he will be the last man from the peopleof Hell to enter paradise. He will be facing Hell, and will say, ‘OAllah! Turn my face from the fire as its wind has dried me andits steam has burnt me.’ Allah will ask him, “Will you ask foranything more in case this favor is granted to you?’ He will say,”No by Your (Honor) Power!” And he will give to his Lord(Allah) what he will of the pledges and the covenants. Allahwill then turn his face from the Fire. When he will faceparadise and will see its charm, he will remain quiet as long asAllah will. He then will say, ‘O my Lord! Let me go to the gateof paradise.’ Allah will ask him, ‘Didn’t you give pledges andmake covenants (to the effect) that you would not ask foranything more than what you requested at first?’ He will say, ‘Omy Lord! Do not make me the most wretched, amongst Yourcreatures.’ Allah will say, ‘If this request is granted, will youthen ask for anything else?’ He will say, ‘No! By Your Power! Ishall not ask for anything else.’ Then he will give to his Lordwhat He will of the pledges and the covenants. Allah will thenlet him go to the gate ofparadise. On reaching then and seeingits life, charm, and pleasure, he will remain quiet as long asAllah wills and then will say, ‘O my Lord ! Let meenter paradise.’ Allah will say, May Allah be merciful unto you,O son of Adam! How treacherous you are! Haven’t you madecovenants and given pledges that you will not ask for anythingmore that what you have been given?’ He will say, ‘O my Lord!Do not make me the most wretched amongst Your creatures.’So Allah will laugh and allow him to enter paradise and willask him to request as much as he likes. He
Allah (subhanahu wa tala) says in the Noble Quran”Nor will He disclose to you the secrets of the Unseen. But He chooses of His Apostles[for the purpose]” (3:179)
“He (alone) knows the Unseen, nor does He make any one acquainted with HisMysteries Except an apostle whom He has chosen: and then He makes a band ofwatchers march before him and behind him” (72:26-27)

The Prophet said, “Where is Ali bin Abi Talib?” Itwas said, “He is suffering from eye trouble O Allah’s Apostle.”He said, “Send for him.” ‘Ali was brought and Allah’s Apostlespat in his eye and invoked good upon him.

(This Hatib) has betrayed Allah, His Apostleand the believers! Let me cut off his neck!” The Prophet askedHatib, “What made you do this?” Hatib said, “By Allah, I did notintend to give up my belief in Allah and His Apostle but Iwanted to have some influence among the (Mecca) people sothat through it, Allah might protect my family and property.There is none of your companions but has some of his relativesthere through whom Allah protects his family and property.”The Prophet said, “He has spoken the truth; do no say to himbut good.” ‘Umar said, “He as betrayed Allah, His Apostle andthe faithful believers.

Theysaid, “These are the dates of Yathrib (i.e. Medina), “andcontinued following their tracks When ‘Asim and hiscompanions saw their pursuers, they went up a high place andthe infidels circled them. The infidels said to them, “Come downand surrender, and we promise and guarantee you that we willnot kill any one of you” ‘Asim bin Thabit; the leader of theSariya said, “By Allah! I will not come down to be under theprotection of infidels. O Allah! Convey our news to YourProphet. Then the infidels threw arrows at them till theymartyred ‘Asim along with six other men, and three men camedown accepting their promise and convention, and they wereKhubaibalAnsari and Ibn Dathina and another man So, whenthe infidels captured them, they undid the strings of their bowsand tied them. Then the third (of the captives) said, “This is thefirst betrayal. By Allah! I will not go with you. No doubt these,namely the martyred, have set a good example to us.” So, theydragged him and tried to compel him to accompany them, butas he refused, they killed him. They took Khubaid and IbnDathina with them and sold them (as slaves) in Mecca (and allthat took place) after the battle of Badr. Khubaib was bought bythe sons of AlHarith bin ‘Amir bin Naufal bin ‘Abd Manaf. Itwas Khubaib who had killed AlHarith bin ‘Amir on the day (ofthe battle of) Badr. So, Khubaib remained a prisoner with thosepeople. Narrated AzZuhri: ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Iyyad said that thedaughter of AlHarith had told him, “When those peoplegathered (to kill Khubaib) he borrowed a razor from me toshave his pubes and I gave it to him. Then he took a son ofmine while I was unaware when he came upon him. I saw himplacing my son on his thigh and the razor was in his hand. Igot scared so much that Khubaib noticed the agitation on myface and said, ‘Are you afraid that I will kill him? No, I willnever do so.’ By Allah, I never saw a prisoner better thanKhubaib. By Allah, one day I saw him eating of a bunch ofgrapes in his hand while he was chained in irons, and therewas no fruit at that time in Mecca.” The daughter of AlHarithused to say, “It was a boon Allah bestowed upon Khubaib.”When they took him out of the Sanctuary (of Mecca) to kill himoutside its boundaries, Khubaib requested them to let him offertwo Rakat (prayer). They allowed him and he offered TwoRakat and then said, “Hadn’t I been afraid that you would thinkthat I was afraid (of being killed), I would have prolonged theprayer. O Allah, kill them all with no exception.” (He thenrecited the poetic verse): “I being martyred as a Muslim, Donot mind how I am killed in Allah’s Cause, For my killing is forAllah’s Sake, And if Allah wishes, He will bless the amputatedparts of a torn body” Then the son of Al Harith killed him. So, itwas Khubaib who set the tradition for any Muslim sentenced todeath in captivity, to offer a twoRak’at prayer (before beingkilled). Allah fulfilled the invocation of Asim bin Thabit on thatvery day on which he was martyred. The Prophet informed hiscompanions of their news and what had happened to them.Later on when some infidels from Quraish were informed thatAsim had been killed, they sent some people to fetch a part ofhis body (i.e. his head) by which he would be recognized. (Thatwas because) ‘Asim had killed one of their chiefs on the day (ofthe battle) of Badr. So, a swarm of wasps, resembling a shadycloud, were sent to hover over Asim and protect him from theirmessenger and thus they could not cut off anything from hisflesh.(Volume 4, Book 52, Number 281)

I went carrying it and found Allah’s Apostle in theMosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Allah’sApostle asked, “Has Abu Talha sent you?” I said, “Yes”. He asked,”With some food? I said, “Yes” Allah’s Apostle then said to themen around him, “Get up!” He set out (accompanied by them)and I went ahead of them till I reached Abu Talha and told him(of the Prophet’s visit). Abu Talha said, “O Um Sulaim! Allah’sApostle is coming with the people and we have no food to feedthem.” She said, “Allah and His Apostle know better.” So AbuTalha went out to receive Allah’s Apostle. Allah’s Apostle camealong with Abu Talha. Allah’s Apostle said, “O Um Sulaim!Bring whatever you have.” She brought the bread which Allah’sApostle ordered to be broken into pieces. Um Sulaim poured onthem some butter from an oilskin. Then Allah’s Apostle recitedwhat Allah wished him to recite, and then said, “Let ten personscome (to share the meal).” Ten persons were admitted, ate theirfill and went out.

Then heagain said, ‘”‘Let another ten persons (do the same.)” They wereadmitted, ate their fill and went out.

And any of you, when meeting Allah, will meet Himwithout needing an interpreter between him and Allah tointerpret for him, and Allah will say to him: ‘Didn’t I send amessenger to teach you?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’ Allah will say:’Didn’t I give you wealth and do you favors?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’Then he will look to his right and see nothing but Hell, andlook to his left and see nothing but Hell.” ‘Adi further said: Iheard the Prophet saying, “Save yourself from the (Hell) Fireeven with half a date (to be given in charity) and if you do notfind a half date, then with a good pleasant word.” ‘Adi added:(later on) I saw a lady in a Howdah traveling from AlHira tillshe performed the Tawaf of the Ka’ba, fearing none but Allah.And I was one of those who opened (conquered) the treasuresof Khosrau, son of Hurmuz.

Allow me to chop his head off.” TheProphet said, “Leave him, for he has companions who pray andfast in such a way that you will consider your fasting negligiblein comparison to theirs. They recite Qur’an but it does not gobeyond their throats (i.e. they do not act on it) and they willdesert Islam as an arrow goes through a victim’s body, so thatthe hunter, on looking at the arrow’s blade, would see nothingon it; he would look at its Risaf and see nothing: he would lookat its Na,di and see nothing, and he would look at its Qudhadh (1 ) and see nothing (neither meat nor blood), for the arrow hasbeen too fast even for the blood and excretions to smear. Thesign by which they will be recognized is that among them therewill be a black man, one of whose arms will resemble awoman’s breast or a lump of meat moving loosely. Those peoplewill appear when there will be differences amongst the people.”I testify that I heard this narration from Allah’s Apostle and Itestify that ‘Ali bin Abi Talib fought with such people, and I wasin his company.

40.Informing about the last man tojannahNarrated Abu Huraira (Razi Allahu anhu):On the Day of Resurrection, people will be gathered and Hewill order the people to follow what they used to worship. Sosome of them will follow the sun, some will follow the moon,and some will follow other deities; and only this nation(Muslims) will be left with its hypocrites. Allah will come tothem and say, ‘I am Your Lord.’ They will say, ‘We shall stay inthis place till our Lord comes to us and when our Lord willcome, we will recognize Him. Then Allah will come to themagain and say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say, ‘You are ourLord.’ Allah will call them, and AsSirat (a bridge) will be laidacross Hell and I (Muhammad) shall be the first amongst theApostles to cross it with my followers. Nobody except theApostles will then be able to speak and they will be saying then,’O Allah! Save us. O Allah Save us.’ There will be hooks like thethorns of Sa’dan in Hell. Have you seen the thorns of Sa’dan?”The people said, “Yes.” He said, “These hooks will be like thethorns of Sa’dan but nobody except Allah knows their greatnessin size and these will entangle the people according to theirdeeds; some of them will fall and stay in Hell forever; otherswill receive punishment (torn into small pieces) and will getout of Hell, till when Allah intends mercy on whomever Helikes amongst the people of Hell, He will order the angels totake out of Hell those who worshipped none but Him alone.The angels will take them out by recognizing them from thetraces of prostrations, for Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire toeat away those traces. So they will come out of the Fire, it willeat away from the whole of the human body except the marksof the prostrations. At that time they will come out of the Fire asmere skeletons. The Water of Life will be poured on them andas a result they will grow like the seeds growing on the bank offlowing water. Then when Allah had finished from theJudgments amongst his creations, one man will be left betweenHell and paradise and he will be the last man from the peopleof Hell to enter paradise. He will be facing Hell, and will say, ‘OAllah! Turn my face from the fire as its wind has dried me andits steam has burnt me.’ Allah will ask him, “Will you ask foranything more in case this favor is granted to you?’ He will say,”No by Your (Honor) Power!” And he will give to his Lord(Allah) what he will of the pledges and the covenants. Allahwill then turn his face from the Fire. When he will faceparadise and will see its charm, he will remain quiet as long asAllah will. He then will say, ‘O my Lord! Let me go to the gateof paradise.’ Allah will ask him, ‘Didn’t you give pledges andmake covenants (to the effect) that you would not ask foranything more than what you requested at first?’ He will say, ‘Omy Lord! Do not make me the most wretched, amongst Yourcreatures.’ Allah will say, ‘If this request is granted, will youthen ask for anything else?’ He will say, ‘No! By Your Power! Ishall not ask for anything else.’ Then he will give to his Lordwhat He will of the pledges and the covenants. Allah will thenlet him go to the gate ofparadise. On reaching then and seeingits life, charm, and pleasure, he will remain quiet as long asAllah wills and then will say, ‘O my Lord ! Let meenter paradise.’ Allah will say, May Allah be merciful unto you,O son of Adam! How treacherous you are! Haven’t you madecovenants and given pledges that you will not ask for anythingmore that what you have been given?’ He will say, ‘O my Lord!Do not make me the most wretched amongst Your creatures.’So Allah will laugh and allow him to enter paradise and willask him to request as much as he likes. He will do so till all hisdesires have been fulfilled . Then Allah will say, ‘Request moreof such and such things.’ Allah will remind him and when allhis desires and wishes; have been fulfilled, Allah will say “Allthis is granted to you and a similar amount besides.” Abu SaidAlKhudri, said to Abu Huraira, ‘Allah’s Apostle said, “Allahsaid, ‘That is for you and ten times more like it.’ “Abu Hurairasaid, “I do not remember from Allah’s Apostle except (hissaying), ‘All this is granted to you and a similar amountbesides.” Abu Sahd said, “I heard him saying, ‘That is for youand ten times more the like of it.” (Volume :1 ,Book 12, Hadith no770)

I will teach yousome words which will help you with Allah.’ I said, ‘What arethey?’ He said, ‘When you go to bed, recite the Throne Verse,”Allah, there is no god but Him, the Living, the SelfSustaining…” to the end of the ayat. You will have someoneguarding over you from Allah and shaytan will not come nearyou until morning.’ So I let him go his way. In the morning, theMessenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,said to me, ‘What did you do with your prisoner yesterday?’ Isaid, ‘Messenger of Allah, he claimed that he would teach mesome words which would help me with Allah, so I let him gohis way.’ He said, ‘What are they?’ I said, ‘He said to me, “Whenyou go to bed, recite the Throne Verse to the end: ‘Allah, there isno god but Him, the Living, the SelfSustaining’.” He said to me,”You will have someone guarding over you from Allah andshaytan will not come near you until morning.”‘ (They wereexceedingly eager for good.)

Whilethe slave was dismounting the saddle of Allah’s Apostle anarrow the thrower of which was unknown, came and hit him.The people said, “Congratulations to him for the martyrdom.”Allah’s Apostle said, “No, by Him in Whose Hand my soul is, thesheet (of cloth) which he had taken (illegally) on the day ofKhaibar from the booty before the distribution of the booty, hasbecome a flame of Fire burning him.” On hearing that, a manbrought one or two leather straps of shoes to the Prophet andsaid, “These are things I took (illegally).” On that Allah’s Apostlesaid, “This is a strap, or these are two straps of Fire.”( Volume 5,Book 59, Number 541)

We said (to her),”(Give us) the letter.” She said, “Ihave no letter.” Then we made her camel kneel down and wesearched her, but we found no letter. Then we said, “Allah’sApostle had not told us a lie, certainly. Take out the letter,otherwise we will strip you naked.” When she saw that wewere determined, she put her hand below her waist belt, forshe had tied her cloak round her waist, and she took out theletter, and we brought her to Allah’s Apostle Then ‘Umar said,”O Allah’s Apostle! (This Hatib) has betrayed Allah, His Apostleand the believers! Let me cut off his neck!” The Prophet askedHatib, “What made you do this?” Hatib said, “By Allah, I did notintend to give up my belief in Allah and His Apostle but Iwanted to have some influence among the (Mecca) people sothat through it, Allah might protect my family and property.There is none of your companions but has some of his relativesthere through whom Allah protects his family and property.”The Prophet said, “He has spoken the truth; do no say to himbut good.” ‘Umar said, “He as betrayed Allah, His Apostle andthe faithful believers. Let me cut off his neck!” The Prophet said,”Is he not one of the Badr warriors? May be Allah looked at theBadr warriors and said, ‘Do whatever you like, as I havegranted Paradise to you, or said, ‘I have forgiven you.”‘ On this,tears came out of Umar’s eyes, and he said, “Allah and HisApostle know better.”( Volume 5, Book 59, Number 319)
22.Seeing the of events of makkahfrom madinah:Narrated by Abu Huraira (Razi allahu anhu)Allah’s Apostle sent a Sariya of ten men as spies under theleadership of ‘Asim bin Thabit alAnsari, the grandfather of’Asim bin Umar AlKhattab. They proceeded till they reachedHadaa, a place between ‘Usfan, and Mecca, and their newsreached a branch of the tribe of Hudhail called Bani Lihyan.About twohundred men, who were all archers, hurried tofollow their tracks till they found the place where they hadeaten dates they had brought with them from Medina. Theysaid, “These are the dates of Yathrib (i.e. Medina), “andcontinued following their tracks When ‘Asim and hiscompanions saw their pursuers, they went up a high place andthe infidels circled them. The infidels said to them, “Come downand surrender, and we promise and guarantee you that we willnot kill any one of you” ‘Asim bin Thabit; the leader of theSariya said, “By Allah! I will not come down to be under theprotection of infidels. O Allah! Convey our news to YourProphet. Then the infidels threw arrows at them till theymartyred ‘Asim along with six other men, and three men camedown accepting their promise and convention, and they wereKhubaibalAnsari and Ibn Dathina and another man So, whenthe infidels captured them, they undid the strings of their bowsand tied them. Then the third (of the captives) said, “This is thefirst betrayal. By Allah! I will not go with you. No doubt these,namely the martyred, have set a good example to us.” So, theydragged him and tried to compel him to accompany them, butas he refused, they killed him. They took Khubaid and IbnDathina with them and sold them (as slaves) in Mecca (and allthat took place) after the battle of Badr. Khubaib was bought bythe sons of AlHarith bin ‘Amir bin Naufal bin ‘Abd Manaf. Itwas Khubaib who had killed AlHarith bin ‘Amir on the day (ofthe battle of) Badr. So, Khubaib remained a prisoner with thosepeople. Narrated AzZuhri: ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Iyyad said that thedaughter of AlHarith had told him, “When those peoplegathered (to kill Khubaib) he borrowed a razor from me toshave his pubes and I gave it to him. Then he took a son ofmine while I was unaware when he came upon him. I saw himplacing my son on his thigh and the razor was in his hand. Igot scared so much that Khubaib noticed the agitation on myface and said, ‘Are you afraid that I will kill him? No, I willnever do so.’ By Allah, I never saw a prisoner better thanKhubaib. By Allah, one day I saw him eating of a bunch ofgrapes in his hand while he was chained in irons, and therewas no fruit at that time in Mecca.” The daughter of AlHarithused to say, “It was a boon Allah bestowed upon Khubaib.”When they took him out of the Sanctuary (of Mecca) to kill himoutside its boundaries, Khubaib requested them to let him offertwo Rakat (prayer). They allowed him and he offered TwoRakat and then said, “Hadn’t I been afraid that you would thinkthat I was afraid (of being killed), I would have prolonged theprayer. O Allah, kill them all with no exception.” (He thenrecited the poetic verse): “I being martyred as a Muslim, Donot mind how I am killed in Allah’s Cause, For my killing is forAllah’s Sake, And if Allah wishes, He will bless the amputatedparts of a torn body” Then the son of Al Harith killed him. So, itwas Khubaib who set the tradition for any Muslim sentenced todeath in captivity, to offer a twoRak’at prayer (before beingkilled). Allah fulfilled the invocation of Asim bin Thabit on thatvery day on which he was martyred. The Prophet informed hiscompanions of their news and what had happened to them.Later on when some infidels from Quraish were informed thatAsim had been killed, they sent some people to fetch a part ofhis body (i.e. his head) by which he would be recognized. (Thatwas because) ‘Asim had killed one of their chiefs on the day (ofthe battle) of Badr. So, a swarm of wasps, resembling a shadycloud, were sent to hover over Asim and protect him from theirmessenger and thus they could not cut off anything from hisflesh.(Volume 4, Book 52, Number 281)
23.knowledge of the Future:Narrated by Sulaiman bin Surd (Razi allahu anhu)On the day of AlAhzab (i.e. clans) the Prophet said, (After thisbattle) we will go to attack them(i.e. the infidels) and they willnot come to attack us again”( Volume 5, Book 59, Number 435)
24.Knowledge of hidden objects andthe sender of food:Narrated by Anas bin Malik(Razi allahu anhu)Abu Talha said to Um Sulaim, “I have noticed feebleness in thevoice of Allah’s Apostle which I think, is caused by hunger.Have you got any food?” She said, “Yes.” She brought out someloaves of barley and took out a veil belonging to her, andwrapped the bread in part of it and put it under my arm andwrapped part of the veil round me and sent me to Allah’sApostle. I went carrying it and found Allah’s Apostle in theMosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Allah’sApostle asked, “Has Abu Talha sent you?” I said, “Yes”. He asked,”With some food? I said, “Yes” Allah’s Apostle then said to themen around him, “Get up!” He set out (accompanied by them)and I went ahead of them till I reached Abu Talha and told him(of the Prophet’s visit). Abu Talha said, “O Um Sulaim! Allah’sApostle is coming with the people and we have no food to feedthem.” She said, “Allah and His Apostle know better.” So AbuTalha went out to receive Allah’s Apostle. Allah’s Apostle camealong with Abu Talha. Allah’s Apostle said, “O Um Sulaim!Bring whatever you have.” She brought the bread which Allah’sApostle ordered to be broken into pieces. Um Sulaim poured onthem some butter from an oilskin. Then Allah’s Apostle recitedwhat Allah wished him to recite, and then said, “Let ten personscome (to share the meal).” Ten persons were admitted, ate theirfill and went out. Then he again said, “Let another ten do thesame.” They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then heagain said, ‘”‘Let another ten persons (do the same.)” They wereadmitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he said, “Let anotherten persons come.” In short, all of them ate their fill, and theywere seventy or eighty men. (Volume 4, Book 56, Number 778)

And any of you, when meeting Allah, will meet Himwithout needing an interpreter between him and Allah tointerpret for him, and Allah will say to him: ‘Didn’t I send amessenger to teach you?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’ Allah will say:’Didn’t I give you wealth and do you favors?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’Then he will look to his right and see nothing but Hell, andlook to his left and see nothing but Hell.” ‘Adi further said: Iheard the Prophet saying, “Save yourself from the (Hell) Fireeven with half a date (to be given in charity) and if you do notfind a half date, then with a good pleasant word.” ‘Adi added:(later on) I saw a lady in a Howdah traveling from AlHira tillshe performed the Tawaf of the Ka’ba, fearing none but Allah.And I was one of those who opened (conquered) the treasuresof Khosrau, son of Hurmuz.

You need not fear those(afflictions) as there is a closed door between you and them.”‘Umar asked, “Will that door be opened or broken?” Hudhaifareplied, “No, it will be broken.” ‘Umar said, “Then it is very likelythat the door will not be closed again.” Later on the peopleasked Hudhaifa, “Did ‘Umar know what that door meant?” Hesaid. “Yes, ‘Umar knew it as everyone knows that there will benight before the tomorrow morning. I narrated to ‘Umar anauthentic narration, not lies.” We dared not ask Hudhaifa;therefore we requested Masruq who asked him, “What does thedoor stand for?” He said, “Umar.”( Volume 4, Book 56, Number786)

Allow me to chop his head off.” TheProphet said, “Leave him, for he has companions who pray andfast in such a way that you will consider your fasting negligiblein comparison to theirs. They recite Qur’an but it does not gobeyond their throats (i.e. they do not act on it) and they willdesert Islam as an arrow goes through a victim’s body, so thatthe hunter, on looking at the arrow’s blade, would see nothingon it; he would look at its Risaf and see nothing: he would lookat its Na,di and see nothing, and he would look at its Qudhadh (1 ) and see nothing (neither meat nor blood), for the arrow hasbeen too fast even for the blood and excretions to smear. Thesign by which they will be recognized is that among them therewill be a black man, one of whose arms will resemble awoman’s breast or a lump of meat moving loosely. Those peoplewill appear when there will be differences amongst the people.”I testify that I heard this narration from Allah’s Apostle and Itestify that ‘Ali bin Abi Talib fought with such people, and I wasin his company.

Sosome of them will follow the sun, some will follow the moon,and some will follow other deities; and only this nation(Muslims) will be left with its hypocrites. Allah will come tothem and say, ‘I am Your Lord.’ They will say, ‘We shall stay inthis place till our Lord comes to us and when our Lord willcome, we will recognize Him. Then Allah will come to themagain and say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say, ‘You are ourLord.’ Allah will call them, and AsSirat (a bridge) will be laidacross Hell and I (Muhammad) shall be the first amongst theApostles to cross it with my followers. Nobody except theApostles will then be able to speak and they will be saying then,’O Allah! Save us. O Allah Save us.’ There will be hooks like thethorns of Sa’dan in Hell. Have you seen the thorns of Sa’dan?”The people said, “Yes.” He said, “These hooks will be like thethorns of Sa’dan but nobody except Allah knows their greatnessin size and these will entangle the people according to theirdeeds; some of them will fall and stay in Hell forever; otherswill receive punishment (torn into small pieces) and will getout of Hell, till when Allah intends mercy on whomever Helikes amongst the people of Hell, He will order the angels totake out of Hell those who worshipped none but Him alone.The angels will take them out by recognizing them from thetraces of prostrations, for Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire toeat away those traces. So they will come out of the Fire, it willeat away from the whole of the human body except the marksof the prostrations. At that time they will come out of the Fire asmere skeletons. The Water of Life will be poured on them andas a result they will grow like the seeds growing on the bank offlowing water. Then when Allah had finished from theJudgments amongst his creations, one man will be left betweenHell and paradise and he will be the last man from the peopleof Hell to enter paradise. He will be facing Hell, and will say, ‘OAllah! Turn my face from the fire as its wind has dried me andits steam has burnt me.’ Allah will ask him, “Will you ask foranything more in case this favor is granted to you?’ He will say,”No by Your (Honor) Power!” And he will give to his Lord(Allah) what he will of the pledges and the covenants. Allahwill then turn his face from the Fire. When he will faceparadise and will see its charm, he will remain quiet as long asAllah will. He then will say, ‘O my Lord! Let me go to the gateof paradise.’ Allah will ask him, ‘Didn’t you give pledges andmake covenants (to the effect) that you would not ask foranything more than what you requested at first?’ He will say, ‘Omy Lord! Do not make me the most wretched, amongst Yourcreatures.’ Allah will say, ‘If this request is granted, will youthen ask for anything else?’ He will say, ‘No! By Your Power! Ishall not ask for anything else.’ Then he will give to his Lordwhat He will of the pledges and the covenants. Allah will thenlet him go to the gate ofparadise. On reaching then and seeingits life, charm, and pleasure, he will remain quiet as long asAllah wills and then will say, ‘O my Lord ! Let meenter paradise.’ Allah will say, May Allah be merciful unto you,O son of Adam! How treacherous you are! Haven’t you madecovenants and given pledges that you will not ask for anythingmore that what you have been given?’ He will say, ‘O my Lord!Do not make me the most wretched amongst Your creatures.’So Allah will laugh and allow him to enter paradise and willask him to request as much as he likes. He
Allah (subhanahu wa tala) says in the Noble Quran”Nor will He disclose to you the secrets of the Unseen. But He chooses of His Apostles[for the purpose]” (3:179)
“He (alone) knows the Unseen, nor does He make any one acquainted with HisMysteries Except an apostle whom He has chosen: and then He makes a band ofwatchers march before him and behind him” (72:26-27)

The (brave) man then gotwounded severely, and seeking to die at once, he planted hissword into the ground and put its point against his chest inbetween his breasts, and then threw himself on it andcommitted suicide.

We said (to her),”(Give us) the letter.” She said, “Ihave no letter.” Then we made her camel kneel down and wesearched her, but we found no letter. Then we said, “Allah’sApostle had not told us a lie, certainly. Take out the letter,otherwise we will strip you naked.” When she saw that wewere determined, she put her hand below her waist belt, forshe had tied her cloak round her waist, and she took out theletter, and we brought her to Allah’s Apostle Then ‘Umar said,”O Allah’s Apostle! (This Hatib) has betrayed Allah, His Apostleand the believers! Let me cut off his neck!” The Prophet askedHatib, “What made you do this?” Hatib said, “By Allah, I did notintend to give up my belief in Allah and His Apostle but Iwanted to have some influence among the (Mecca) people sothat through it, Allah might protect my family and property.There is none of your companions but has some of his relativesthere through whom Allah protects his family and property.”The Prophet said, “He has spoken the truth; do no say to himbut good.” ‘Umar said, “He as betrayed Allah, His Apostle andthe faithful believers. Let me cut off his neck!” The Prophet said,”Is he not one of the Badr warriors? May be Allah looked at theBadr warriors and said, ‘Do whatever you like, as I havegranted Paradise to you, or said, ‘I have forgiven you.”‘ On this,tears came out of Umar’s eyes, and he said, “Allah and HisApostle know better.”( Volume 5, Book 59, Number 319)
22.Seeing the of events of makkahfrom madinah:Narrated by Abu Huraira (Razi allahu anhu)Allah’s Apostle sent a Sariya of ten men as spies under theleadership of ‘Asim bin Thabit alAnsari, the grandfather of’Asim bin Umar AlKhattab. They proceeded till they reachedHadaa, a place between ‘Usfan, and Mecca, and their newsreached a branch of the tribe of Hudhail called Bani Lihyan.About twohundred men, who were all archers, hurried tofollow their tracks till they found the place where they hadeaten dates they had brought with them from Medina. Theysaid, “These are the dates of Yathrib (i.e. Medina), “andcontinued following their tracks When ‘Asim and hiscompanions saw their pursuers, they went up a high place andthe infidels circled them. The infidels said to them, “Come downand surrender, and we promise and guarantee you that we willnot kill any one of you” ‘Asim bin Thabit; the leader of theSariya said, “By Allah! I will not come down to be under theprotection of infidels. O Allah! Convey our news to YourProphet. Then the infidels threw arrows at them till theymartyred ‘Asim along with six other men, and three men camedown accepting their promise and convention, and they wereKhubaibalAnsari and Ibn Dathina and another man So, whenthe infidels captured them, they undid the strings of their bowsand tied them. Then the third (of the captives) said, “This is thefirst betrayal. By Allah! I will not go with you. No doubt these,namely the martyred, have set a good example to us.” So, theydragged him and tried to compel him to accompany them, butas he refused, they killed him. They took Khubaid and IbnDathina with them and sold them (as slaves) in Mecca (and allthat took place) after the battle of Badr. Khubaib was bought bythe sons of AlHarith bin ‘Amir bin Naufal bin ‘Abd Manaf. Itwas Khubaib who had killed AlHarith bin ‘Amir on the day (ofthe battle of) Badr. So, Khubaib remained a prisoner with thosepeople. Narrated AzZuhri: ‘Ubaidullah bin ‘Iyyad said that thedaughter of AlHarith had told him, “When those peoplegathered (to kill Khubaib) he borrowed a razor from me toshave his pubes and I gave it to him. Then he took a son ofmine while I was unaware when he came upon him. I saw himplacing my son on his thigh and the razor was in his hand. Igot scared so much that Khubaib noticed the agitation on myface and said, ‘Are you afraid that I will kill him? No, I willnever do so.’ By Allah, I never saw a prisoner better thanKhubaib. By Allah, one day I saw him eating of a bunch ofgrapes in his hand while he was chained in irons, and therewas no fruit at that time in Mecca.” The daughter of AlHarithused to say, “It was a boon Allah bestowed upon Khubaib.”When they took him out of the Sanctuary (of Mecca) to kill himoutside its boundaries, Khubaib requested them to let him offertwo Rakat (prayer). They allowed him and he offered TwoRakat and then said, “Hadn’t I been afraid that you would thinkthat I was afraid (of being killed), I would have prolonged theprayer. O Allah, kill them all with no exception.” (He thenrecited the poetic verse): “I being martyred as a Muslim, Donot mind how I am killed in Allah’s Cause, For my killing is forAllah’s Sake, And if Allah wishes, He will bless the amputatedparts of a torn body” Then the son of Al Harith killed him. So, itwas Khubaib who set the tradition for any Muslim sentenced todeath in captivity, to offer a twoRak’at prayer (before beingkilled). Allah fulfilled the invocation of Asim bin Thabit on thatvery day on which he was martyred. The Prophet informed hiscompanions of their news and what had happened to them.Later on when some infidels from Quraish were informed thatAsim had been killed, they sent some people to fetch a part ofhis body (i.e. his head) by which he would be recognized. (Thatwas because) ‘Asim had killed one of their chiefs on the day (ofthe battle) of Badr. So, a swarm of wasps, resembling a shadycloud, were sent to hover over Asim and protect him from theirmessenger and thus they could not cut off anything from hisflesh.(Volume 4, Book 52, Number 281)
23.knowledge of the Future:Narrated by Sulaiman bin Surd (Razi allahu anhu)On the day of AlAhzab (i.e. clans) the Prophet said, (After thisbattle) we will go to attack them(i.e. the infidels) and they willnot come to attack us again”( Volume 5, Book 59, Number 435)

I went carrying it and found Allah’s Apostle in theMosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Allah’sApostle asked, “Has Abu Talha sent you?” I said, “Yes”. He asked,”With some food? I said, “Yes” Allah’s Apostle then said to themen around him, “Get up!” He set out (accompanied by them)and I went ahead of them till I reached Abu Talha and told him(of the Prophet’s visit). Abu Talha said, “O Um Sulaim! Allah’sApostle is coming with the people and we have no food to feedthem.” She said, “Allah and His Apostle know better.” So AbuTalha went out to receive Allah’s Apostle. Allah’s Apostle camealong with Abu Talha. Allah’s Apostle said, “O Um Sulaim!Bring whatever you have.” She brought the bread which Allah’sApostle ordered to be broken into pieces. Um Sulaim poured onthem some butter from an oilskin. Then Allah’s Apostle recitedwhat Allah wished him to recite, and then said, “Let ten personscome (to share the meal).” Ten persons were admitted, ate theirfill and went out. Then he again said, “Let another ten do thesame.” They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then heagain said, ‘”‘Let another ten persons (do the same.)” They wereadmitted, ate their fill and went out.

And any of you, when meeting Allah, will meet Himwithout needing an interpreter between him and Allah tointerpret for him, and Allah will say to him: ‘Didn’t I send amessenger to teach you?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’ Allah will say:’Didn’t I give you wealth and do you favors?’ He will say: ‘Yes.’Then he will look to his right and see nothing but Hell, andlook to his left and see nothing but Hell.” ‘Adi further said: Iheard the Prophet saying, “Save yourself from the (Hell) Fireeven with half a date (to be given in charity) and if you do notfind a half date, then with a good pleasant word.” ‘Adi added:(later on) I saw a lady in a Howdah traveling from AlHira tillshe performed the Tawaf of the Ka’ba, fearing none but Allah.And I was one of those who opened (conquered) the treasuresof Khosrau, son of Hurmuz.

Do Justice.”The Prophet said, “Woe to you! Who could do justice if I didnot? I would be a desperate loser if I did not do justice.” ‘Umarsaid, “O Allah’s Apostle! Allow me to chop his head off.” TheProphet said, “Leave him, for he has companions who pray andfast in such a way that you will consider your fasting negligiblein comparison to theirs. They recite Qur’an but it does not gobeyond their throats (i.e. they do not act on it) and they willdesert Islam as an arrow goes through a victim’s body, so thatthe hunter, on looking at the arrow’s blade, would see nothingon it; he would look at its Risaf and see nothing: he would lookat its Na,di and see nothing, and he would look at its Qudhadh (1 ) and see nothing (neither meat nor blood), for the arrow hasbeen too fast even for the blood and excretions to smear. Thesign by which they will be recognized is that among them therewill be a black man, one of whose arms will resemble awoman’s breast or a lump of meat moving loosely. Those peoplewill appear when there will be differences amongst the people.”I testify that I heard this narration from Allah’s Apostle and Itestify that ‘Ali bin Abi Talib fought with such people, and I wasin his company. He ordered that the man (described by theProphet ) should be looked for. The man was brought and Ilooked at him and noticed that he looked exactly as the Prophethad described him.( Volume 4, Book 56, Number 807)

40.Informing about the last man tojannahNarrated Abu Huraira (Razi Allahu anhu):On the Day of Resurrection, people will be gathered and Hewill order the people to follow what they used to worship. Sosome of them will follow the sun, some will follow the moon,and some will follow other deities; and only this nation(Muslims) will be left with its hypocrites. Allah will come tothem and say, ‘I am Your Lord.’ They will say, ‘We shall stay inthis place till our Lord comes to us and when our Lord willcome, we will recognize Him. Then Allah will come to themagain and say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say, ‘You are ourLord.’ Allah will call them, and AsSirat (a bridge) will be laidacross Hell and I (Muhammad) shall be the first amongst theApostles to cross it with my followers. Nobody except theApostles will then be able to speak and they will be saying then,’O Allah! Save us. O Allah Save us.’ There will be hooks like thethorns of Sa’dan in Hell. Have you seen the thorns of Sa’dan?”The people said, “Yes.” He said, “These hooks will be like thethorns of Sa’dan but nobody except Allah knows their greatnessin size and these will entangle the people according to theirdeeds; some of them will fall and stay in Hell forever; otherswill receive punishment (torn into small pieces) and will getout of Hell, till when Allah intends mercy on whomever Helikes amongst the people of Hell, He will order the angels totake out of Hell those who worshipped none but Him alone.The angels will take them out by recognizing them from thetraces of prostrations, for Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire toeat away those traces. So they will come out of the Fire, it willeat away from the whole of the human body except the marksof the prostrations. At that time they will come out of the Fire asmere skeletons. The Water of Life will be poured on them andas a result they will grow like the seeds growing on the bank offlowing water. Then when Allah had finished from theJudgments amongst his creations, one man will be left betweenHell and paradise and he will be the last man from the peopleof Hell to enter paradise. He will be facing Hell, and will say, ‘OAllah! Turn my face from the fire as its wind has dried me andits steam has burnt me.’ Allah will ask him, “Will you ask foranything more in case this favor is granted to you?’ He will say,”No by Your (Honor) Power!” And he will give to his Lord(Allah) what he will of the pledges and the covenants. Allahwill then turn his face from the Fire. When he will faceparadise and will see its charm, he will remain quiet as long asAllah will. He then will say, ‘O my Lord! Let me go to the gateof paradise.’ Allah will ask him, ‘Didn’t you give pledges andmake covenants (to the effect) that you would not ask foranything more than what you requested at first?’ He will say, ‘Omy Lord! Do not make me the most wretched, amongst Yourcreatures.’ Allah will say, ‘If this request is granted, will youthen ask for anything else?’ He will say, ‘No! By Your Power! Ishall not ask for anything else.’ Then he will give to his Lordwhat He will of the pledges and the covenants. Allah will thenlet him go to the gate ofparadise. On reaching then and seeingits life, charm, and pleasure, he will remain quiet as long asAllah wills and then will say, ‘O my Lord ! Let meenter paradise.’ Allah will say, May Allah be merciful unto you,O son of Adam! How treacherous you are! Haven’t you madecovenants and given pledges that you will not ask for anythingmore that what you have been given?’ He will say, ‘O my Lord!Do not make me the most wretched amongst Your creatures.’So Allah will laugh and allow him to enter paradise and willask him to request as much as he likes. He will do so till all hisdesires have been fulfilled . Then Allah will say, ‘Request moreof such and such things.’ Allah will remind him and when allhis desires and wishes; have been fulfilled, Allah will say “Allthis is granted to you and a similar amount besides.” Abu SaidAlKhudri, said to Abu Huraira, ‘Allah’s Apostle said, “Allahsaid, ‘That is for you and ten times more like it.’ “Abu Hurairasaid, “I do not remember from Allah’s Apostle except (hissaying), ‘All this is granted to you and a similar amountbesides.” Abu Sahd said, “I heard him saying, ‘That is for youand ten times more the like of it.” (Volume :1 ,Book 12, Hadith no770)
