While I was riding a (slow) and tired camel, the Prophet passed by and beat it and prayed for Allah's Blessings for it. The camel became so fast as it had never been before. The Prophet then said, ''Sell it to me for one Uqiyya (of gold).'' I said, ''No.'' He again said, ''Sell it to me for one Uqiyya (of gold).'' I sold it and stipulated that I should ride it to my house. When we reached (Medina) I took that camel to the Prophet and he gave me its price. I returned home but he sent for me (and when I went to him) he said, ''I will not take your camel. Take your camel as a gift for you.'' (Various narrations are mentioned here with slight variations in expressions relating the condition that Jabir had the right to ride the sold camel up to Medina).

Aisha told me that Buraira came to seek her help in writing for emancipation and at that time she had not paid any part of her price. Aisha said to her, ''Go to your masters and if they agree that I will pay your price (and free you) on condition that your Wala' will be for me, I will pay the money.'' Buraira told her masters about that, but they refused, and said, ''If Aisha wants to do a favor she could, but your Wala will be for us.'' Aisha informed Allah's Apostle of that and he said to her, ''Buy and manumit Buraira as the Wala' will go to the manumitted.''

(from the companions of Allah's Apostle) When Suhail bin Amr agreed to the Treaty (of Hudaibiya), one of the things he stipulated then, was that the Prophet should return to them (i.e. the pagans) anyone coming to him from their side, even if he was a Muslim; and would not interfere between them and that person. The Muslims did not like this condition and got disgusted with it. Suhail did not agree except with that condition. So, the Prophet agreed to that condition and returned Abu Jandal to his father Suhail bin Amr. Thenceforward the Prophet returned everyone in that period (of truce) even if he was a Muslim. During that period some believing women emigrants including Um Kalthum bint Uqba bin Abu Muait who came to Allah's Apostle and she was a young lady then. Her relative came to the Prophet and asked him to return her, but the Prophet did not return her to them for Allah had revealed the following Verse regarding women: ''O you who believe! When the believing women come to you as emigrants. Examine them, Allah knows best as to their belief, then if you know them for true believers, Send them not back to the unbelievers, (for) they are not lawful (wives) for the disbelievers, Nor are the unbelievers lawful (husbands) for them (60.10) Narrated Urwa: Aisha told me, ''Allah's Apostle used to examine them according to this Verse: ''O you who believe! When the believing women come to you, as emigrants test them . . . for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.'' (60.10-12) Aisha said, ''When any of them agreed to that condition Allah's Apostle would say to her, I have accepted your pledge of allegiance.' He would only say that, but, by Allah he never touched the hand of any women (i.e. never shook hands with them) while taking the pledge of allegiance and he never took their pledge of allegiance except by his words (only).''

That Ka'b bin Malik told him that in the lifetime of Allah's Apostle he demanded his debt from Ibn Abu Hadrad in the Mosque. Their voices grew louder till Allah's Apostle heard them while he was in his house. So he lifted the curtain of his room and called Ka'b bin Malik saying, ''O Ka'b!'' He replied, ''Labbaik! O Allah's Apostle!'' He beckoned to him with his hand suggesting that he deduct half the debt. Ka'b said, ''I agree, O Allah's Apostle!'' Allah's Apostle then said (to Ibn Abu Hadrad), ''Get up and pay him the rest.''

My father died and was in debt. I suggested that his creditors take the fruits (i.e. dates) of my garden in lieu of the debt of my father, but they refused the offer, as they thought that it would not cover the full debt. So, I went to the Prophet and told him about it. He said (to me), ''When you pluck the dates and collect them in the Mirbad (i.e. a place where dates are dried), call me (Allah's Apostle).'' Finally he came accompanied by Abu Bakr and Umar and sat on the dates and invoked Allah to bless them. Then he said, ''Call your creditors and give them their full rights.'' So, I paid all my father's creditors in full and yet thirteen extra Wasqs of dates remained, seven of which were Ajwa and six were Laun or six of which were Ajwa and seven were Laun. I met Allah's Apostle at sunset and informed him about it. On that he smiled and said, ''Go to Abu Bakr and Umar and tell them about it.'' They said, ''We perceived that was going to happen, as Allah's Apostle did what he did.''

Az-Zubair told me that he quarrelled with an Ansari man who had participated in (the battle of) Badr in front of Allah's Apostle about a water stream which both of them used for irrigation. Allah's Apostle said to Az-Zubair, ''O Zubair! Irrigate (your garden) first, and then let the water flow to your neighbor.'' The Ansari became angry and said, ''O Allah's Apostle! Is it because he is your cousin?'' On that the complexion of Allah's Apostle changed (because of anger) and said (to Az-Zubair), ''I irrigate (your garden) and then with-hold the water till it reaches the walls (surrounding the palms).'' So, Allah's Apostle gave Az-Zubair his full right. Before that Allah's Apostle had given a generous judgment beneficial for Az-Zubair and the Ansari, but when the Ansan irritated Allah's Apostle he gave Az-Zubair his full right according to the evident law. Az-Zubair said, ''By Allah ! I think the following Verse was revealed concerning that case: ''But no by your Lord They can have No faith Until they make you judge In all disputes between them.''

Abdullah bin Abu Hadrad Al-Aslami owed Kab bin Malik some money. One day the latter met the former and demanded his right, and their voices grew very loud. The Prophet passed by them and said, ''O Ka'b,'' beckoning with his hand as if intending to say, ''Deduct half the debts.'' So, Kab took half what the other owed him and remitted the other half.

Once Allah's Apostle heard the loud voices of some opponents quarreling at the door. One of them was appealing to the other to deduct his debt and asking him to be lenient but the other was saying, ''By Allah I will not do so.'' Allah's Apostle went out to them and said, ''Who is the one who was swearing by Allah that he would not do a favor?'' That man said, ''I am that person, O Allah's Apostle! I will give my opponent whatever he wishes.''

By Allah, Al-Hasan bin Ali led large battalions like mountains against Muawiya. Amr bin Al-As said (to Muawiya), ''I surely see battalions which will not turn back before killing their opponents.'' Muawiya who was really the best of the two men said to him, ''O Amr! If these killed those and those killed these, who would be left with me for the jobs of the public, who would be left with me for their women, who would be left with me for their children?'' Then Muawiya sent two Quraishi men from the tribe of Abd-i-Shams called Abdur Rahman bin Sumura and Abdullah bin Amir bin Kuraiz to Al-Hasan saying to them, ''Go to this man (i.e. Al-Hasan) and negotiate peace with him and talk and appeal to him.'' So, they went to Al-Hasan and talked and appealed to him to accept peace. Al-Hasan said, ''We, the offspring of Abdul Muttalib, have got wealth and people have indulged in killing and corruption (and money only will appease them).'' They said to Al-Hasan, ''Muawiya offers you so and so, and appeals to you and entreats you to accept peace.'' Al-Hasan said to them, ''But who will be responsible for what you have said?'' They said, ''We will be responsible for it.'' So, what-ever Al-Hasan asked they said, ''We will be responsible for it for you.'' So, Al-Hasan concluded a peace treaty with Muawiya. Al-Hasan (Al-Basri) said: I heard Abu Bakr saying, ''I saw Allah's Apostle on the pulpit and Al-Hasan bin Ali was by his side. The Prophet was looking once at the people and once at Al-Hasan bin Ali saying, This son of mine is a Saiyid (i.e. a noble) and may Allah make peace between two big groups of Muslims through him.''

Ar-Rabi, the daughter of An-Nadr broke the tooth of a girl, and the relatives of Ar-Rabi' requested the girl's relatives to accept the Irsh (compensation for wounds etc.) and forgive (the offender), but they refused. So, they went to the Prophet who ordered them to bring about retaliation. Anas bin An-Nadr asked, ''O Allah''; Apostle! Will the tooth of Ar-Rabi' be broken? No, by Him Who has sent you with the Truth, her tooth will not be broken.'' The Prophet said, ''O Anas! Allah''; law ordains retaliation.'' Later the relatives of the girl agreed and forgave her. The Prophet said, ''There are some of Allah's slaves who, if they take an oath by Allah, are responded to by Allah i.e. their oath is fulfilled). Anas added, ''The people agreed and accepted the Irsh.''

Allah's Apostle set out for the Umra but the pagans of Quraish prevented him from reaching the Ka'ba. So, he slaughtered his sacrifice and got his head shaved at Al-Hudaibiya, and agreed with them that he would perform Umra the following year and would not carry weapons except swords and would not stay in Mecca except for the period they al lowed. So, the Prophet performed the Umra in the following year and entered Mecca according to the treaty, and when he stayed for three days, the pagans ordered him to depart, and he departed.

When the Prophet intended to perform Umra in the month of Dhul-Qada, the people of Mecca did not let him enter Mecca till he settled the matter with them by promising to stay in it for three days only. When the document of treaty was written, the following was mentioned: These are the terms on which Muhammad, Allah's Apostle agreed (to make peace).' They said, ''We will not agree to this, for if we believed that you are Allah's Apostle we would not prevent you, but you are Muhammad bin Abdullah.'' The Prophet said, ''I am Allah's Apostle and also Muhammad bin Abdullah.'' Then he said to Ali, ''Rub off (the words) Allah's Apostle' '', but Ali said, ''No, by Allah, I will never rub off your name.'' So, Allah's Apostle took the document and wrote, This is what Muhammad bin Abdullah has agreed upon: No arms will be brought into Mecca except in their cases, and nobody from the people of Mecca will be allowed to go with him (i.e. the Prophet ) even if he wished to follow him and he (the Prophet ) will not prevent any of his companions from staying in Mecca if the latter wants to stay.' When the Prophet entered Mecca and the time limit passed, the Meccans went to Ali and said, ''Tell your Friend (i.e. the Prophet ) to go out, as the period (agreed to) has passed.'' So, the Prophet went out of Mecca. The daughter of Hamza ran after them (i.e. the Prophet and his companions), calling, ''O Uncle! O Uncle!'' Ali received her and led her by the hand and said to Fatima, ''Take your uncle's daughter.'' Zaid and Ja'far quarrel ed about her. Ali said, ''I have more right to her as she is my uncle's daughter.'' Ja'far said, ''She is my uncle's daughter, and her aunt is my wife.'' Zaid said, ''She is my brother's daughter.'' The Prophet judged that she should be given to her aunt, and said that the aunt was like the mother. He then said to All, ''You are from me and I am from you'', and said to Ja'far, ''You resemble me both in character and appearance'', and said to Zaid, ''You are our brother (in faith) and our freed slave.''

When Allah's Apostle concluded a peace treaty with the people of Hudaibiya, Ali bin Abu Talib wrote the document and he mentioned in it, ''Muhammad, Allah's Apostle .'' The pagans said, ''Don't write: Muhammad, Allah's Apostle', for if you were an apostle we would not fight with you.'' Allah's Apostle asked Ali to rub it out, but Ali said, ''I will not be the person to rub it out.'' Allah's Apostle rubbed it out and made peace with them on the condition that the Prophet and his companions would enter Mecca and stay there for three days, and that they would enter with their weapons in cases.

A bedouin came and said, ''O Allah's Apostle! Judge between us according to Allah's Laws.'' His opponent got up and said, ''He is right. Judge between us according to Allah's Laws.'' The bedouin said, ''My son was a laborer working for this man, and he committed illegal sexual intercourse with his wife. The people told me that my son should be stoned to death; so, in lieu of that, I paid a ransom of one hundred sheep and a slave girl to save my son. Then I asked the learned scholars who said, ''Your son has to be lashed one-hundred lashes and has to be exiled for one year.'' The Prophet said, ''No doubt I will judge between you according to Allah's Laws. The slave-girl and the sheep are to go back to you, and your son will get a hundred lashes and one year exile.'' He then addressed somebody, ''O Unais! go to the wife of this (man) and stone her to death'' So, Unais went and stoned her to death.

It was said to the Prophet ''Would that you see Abdullah bin Ubai.'' So, the Prophet went to him, riding a donkey, and the Muslims accompanied him, walking on salty barren land. When the Prophet reached Abdullah bin Ubai, the latter said, ''Keep away from me! By Allah, the bad smell of your donkey has harmed me.'' On that an Ansari man said (to Abdullah), ''By Allah! The smell of the donkey of Allah's Apostle is better than your smell.'' On that a man from Abdullah's tribe got angry for Abdullah's sake, and the two men abused each other which caused the friends of the two men to get angry, and the two groups started fighting with sticks, shoes and hands. We were informed that the following Divine Verse was revealed (in this concern):– ''And if two groups of Believers fall to fighting then, make peace between them.'' (49.9)

There was a dispute amongst the people of the tribe of Bani Amr bin Auf. The Prophet went to them along with some of his companions in order to make peace between them. The time for the prayer became due but the Prophet did not turn up; Bilal pronounced the Adhan (i.e. call) for the prayer but the Prophet did not turn up, so Bilal went to Abu Bakr and said, ''The time for the prayer is due and the Prophet i detained, would you lead the people in the prayer?'' Abu Bakr replied, ''Yes, you wish.'' So, Bilal pronounced the Iqama of the prayer and Abu Bakr went ahead (to lead the prayer), but the Prophet came walking among the rows till he joined the first row. The people started clapping and they clapped too much, and Abu Bakr used not to look hither and thither in the prayer, but he turned round and saw the Prophet standing behind him. The Prophet beckoned him with his hand to keep on praying where he was. Abu Bakr raised his hand and praised Allah and then retreated till he came in the (first) row, and the Prophet went ahead and lead the people in the prayer. When the Prophet finished the prayer, he turned towards the people and said, ''O people! When something happens to you during the prayer, you start clapping. Really clapping is (permissible) for women only. If something happens to one of you in his prayer, he should say: Subhan Allah', (Glorified be Allah), for whoever hears him (saying so) will direct his attention towards him. O Abu Bakr! What prevented you from leading the people in the prayer when I beckoned to you (to continue)?'' Abu Bakr replied, ''It did not befit the son of Abu Quhafa to lead the prayer in front of the Prophet.

Allah's Apostle said, ''If the people knew what is the reward of making the call (for the prayer) and (of being in) the first row (in the prayer), and if they found no other way to get this privilege except by casting lots, they would certainly cast lots for it. If they knew the reward of the noon prayer, they would race for it, and if they knew the reward of the morning (i.e. Fajr) and Isha prayers, they would present themselves for the prayer even if they had to crawl to reach there.

That when the Ansar drew lots as to which of the emigrants should dwell with which of the Ansar, the name of Uthman bin Mazun came out (to be in their lot). Um Al-Ala further said, ''Uthman stayed with us, and we nursed him when he got sick, but he died. We shrouded him in his clothes, and Allah's Apostle came to our house and I said, (addressing the dead Uthman), O Abu As-Sa'ib! May Allah be merciful to you. I testify that Allah has blessed you.' The Prophet said to me, ''How do you know that Allah has blessed him?'' I replied, I do not know O Allah's Apostle! May my parents be sacrificed for you.' Allah's Apostle said, As regards Uthman, by Allah he has died and I really wish him every good, yet, by Allah, although I am Allah's Apostle, I do not know what will be done to him.' Um Al-Ala added, By Allah I shall never attest the piety of anybody after him. And what Allah's Apostles said made me sad.'' Um Al-Ala further said, ''Once I slept and saw in a dream, a flowing stream for Uthman. So I went to Allah's Apostle and told him about it, he said, That is (the symbol of) his deeds.''
