''An infidel spy came to the Prophet while he was on a journey. The spy sat with the companions of the Prophet and started talking and then went away. The Prophet said (to his companions), Chase and kill him.' So, I killed him.'' The Prophet then gave him the belongings of the killed spy (in addition to his share of the war booty).

Some Ansari men asked permission from Allah's Apostle saying, ''O Allah's Apostle! Allow us not to take the ransom of our nephew Al Abbas. The Prophet replied, ''Do not leave a single Dirham thereof.'' (In another narration) Anas said, ''Some wealth was brought to the Prophet from Bahrain. Al Abbas came to him and said, O Allah's Apostle! Give me (some of it), as I have paid my and Aqil's ransom.' The Prophet said, Take,' and gave him in his garment.''

Allah's Apostle sent a Sariya of ten men as spies under the leadership of Asim bin Thabit al-Ansari, the grandfather of Asim bin Umar Al-Khattab. They proceeded till they reached Hadaa, a place between Usfan, and Mecca, and their news reached a branch of the tribe of Hudhail called Bani Lihyan. About two-hundred men, who were all archers, hurried to follow their tracks till they found the place where they had eaten dates they had brought with them from Medina. They said, ''These are the dates of Yathrib (i.e. Medina), ''and continued following their tracks When Asim and his companions saw their pursuers, they went up a high place and the infidels circled them. The infidels said to them, ''Come down and surrender, and we promise and guarantee you that we will not kill any one of you'' Asim bin Thabit; the leader of the Sariya said, ''By Allah! I will not come down to be under the protection of infidels. O Allah! Convey our news to Your Prophet. Then the infidels threw arrows at them till they martyred Asim along with six other men, and three men came down accepting their promise and convention, and they were Khubaib-al-Ansari and Ibn Dathina and another man So, when the infidels captured them, they undid the strings of their bows and tied them. Then the third (of the captives) said, ''This is the first betrayal. By Allah! I will not go with you. No doubt these, namely the martyred, have set a good example to us.'' So, they dragged him and tried to compel him to accompany them, but as he refused, they killed him. They took Khubaid and Ibn Dathina with them and sold them (as slaves) in Mecca (and all that took place) after the battle of Badr. Khubaib was bought by the sons of Al-Harith bin Amir bin Naufal bin Abd Manaf. It was Khubaib who had killed Al-Harith bin Amir on the day (of the battle of) Badr. So, Khubaib remained a prisoner with those people. Narrated Az-Zuhri: Ubaidullah bin Iyyad said that the daughter of Al-Harith had told him, ''When those people gathered (to kill Khubaib) he borrowed a razor from me to shave his pubes and I gave it to him. Then he took a son of mine while I was unaware when he came upon him. I saw him placing my son on his thigh and the razor was in his hand. I got scared so much that Khubaib noticed the agitation on my face and said, Are you afraid that I will kill him? No, I will never do so.' By Allah, I never saw a prisoner better than Khubaib. By Allah, one day I saw him eating of a bunch of grapes in his hand while he was chained in irons, and there was no fruit at that time in Mecca.'' The daughter of Al-Harith used to say, ''It was a boon Allah bestowed upon Khubaib.'' When they took him out of the Sanctuary (of Mecca) to kill him outside its boundaries, Khubaib requested them to let him offer two Rakat (prayer). They allowed him and he offered Two Rakat and then said, ''Hadn't I been afraid that you would think that I was afraid (of being killed), I would have prolonged the prayer. O Allah, kill them all with no exception.'' (He then recited the poetic verse):– ''I being martyred as a Muslim, Do not mind how I am killed in Allah's Cause, For my killing is for Allah's Sake, And if Allah wishes, He will bless the amputated parts of a torn body'' Then the son of Al Harith killed him. So, it was Khubaib who set the tradition for any Muslim sentenced to death in captivity, to offer a two-Rak'at prayer (before being killed). Allah fulfilled the invocation of Asim bin Thabit on that very day on which he was martyred. The Prophet informed his companions of their news and what had happened to them. Later on when some infidels from Quraish were informed that Asim had been killed, they sent some people to fetch a part of his body (i.e. his head) by which he would be recognized. (That was because) Asim had killed one of their chiefs on the day (of the battle) of Badr. So, a swarm of wasps, resembling a shady cloud, were sent to hover over Asim and protect him from their messenger and thus they could not cut off anything from his flesh.

When the tribe of Bani Quraiza was ready to accept Sad's judgment, Allah's Apostle sent for Sad who was near to him. Sad came, riding a donkey and when he came near, Allah's Apostle said (to the Ansar), ''Stand up for your leader.'' Then Sad came and sat beside Allah's Apostle who said to him. ''These people are ready to accept your judgment.'' Sad said, ''I give the judgment that their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as prisoners.'' The Prophet then remarked, ''O Sad! You have judged amongst them with (or similar to) the judgment of the King Allah.''

A man asked Al-Bara ''O Abu Umara! Did you flee on the day (of the battle) of Hunain?'' Al-Bara replied while I was listening, ''As for Allah's Apostle he did not flee on that day. Abu Sufyan bin Al-Harith was holding the reins of his mule and when the pagans attacked him, he dismounted and started saying, I am the Prophet, and there is no lie about it; I am the son of Abdul Muttalib.' On that day nobody was seen braver than the Prophet

I went out of Medina towards Al-Ghaba. When I reached the mountain path of Al-Ghaba, a slave of Abdur-Rahman bin Auf met me. I said to him, ''Woe to you! What brought you here?'' He replied, ''The she-camels of the Prophet have been taken away.'' I said, ''Who took them?'' He said, ''Ghatafan and Fazara.'' So, I sent three cries, ''O Sabaha-h ! O Sabahah !'' so loudly that made the people in between its (i.e. Medina's) two mountains hear me. Then I rushed till I met them after they had taken the camels away. I started throwing arrows at them saying, ''I am the son of Al-Akwa''; and today perish the mean people!'' So, I saved the she-camels from them before they (i.e. the robbers) could drink water. When I returned driving the camels, the Prophet met me, I said, ''O Allah's Apostle Those people are thirsty and I have prevented them from drinking water, so send some people to chase them.'' The Prophet said, ''O son of Al-Akwa', you have gained power (over your enemy), so forgive (them). (Besides) those people are now being entertained by their folk.''

Allah's Apostle was the (most handsome), most generous and the bravest of all the people. Once the people of Medina got frightened having heard an uproar at night. So, the Prophet met the people while he was riding an unsaddled horse belonging to Abu Talha and carrying his sword (slung over his shoulder). He said (to them), ''Don't get scared, don't get scared.'' Then he added, ''I found it (i.e the horse) very fast.''

The Prophet appointed Abdullah bin Jubair as the commander of the infantry men (archers) who were fifty on the day (of the battle) of Uhud. He instructed them, ''Stick to your place, and don't leave it even if you see birds snatching us, till I send for you; and if you see that we have defeated the infidels and made them flee, even then you should not leave your place till I send for you.'' Then the infidels were defeated. By Allah, I saw the women fleeing lifting up their clothes revealing their leg-bangles and their legs. So, the companions of Abdullah bin Jubair said, ''The booty! O people, the booty ! Your companions have become victorious, what are you waiting for now?'' Abdullah bin Jubair said, ''Have you forgotten what Allah's Apostle said to you?'' They replied, ''By Allah! We will go to the people (i.e. the enemy) and collect our share from the war booty.'' But when they went to them, they were forced to turn back defeated. At that time Allah's Apostle in their rear was calling them back. Only twelve men remained with the Prophet and the infidels martyred seventy men from us. On the day (of the battle) of Badr, the Prophet and his companions had caused the Pagans to lose 140 men, seventy of whom were captured and seventy were killed. Then Abu Sufyan asked thrice, ''Is Muhammad present amongst these people?'' The Prophet ordered his companions not to answer him. Then he asked thrice, ''Is the son of Abu Quhafa present amongst these people?'' He asked again thrice, ''Is the son of Al-Khattab present amongst these people?'' He then returned to his companions and said, ''As for these (men), they have been killed.'' Umar could not control himself and said (to Abu Sufyan), ''You told a lie, by Allah! O enemy of Allah! All those you have mentioned are alive, and the thing which will make you unhappy is still there.'' Abu Sufyan said, ''Our victory today is a counterbalance to yours in the battle of Badr, and in war (the victory) is always undecided and is shared in turns by the belligerents, and you will find some of your (killed) men mutilated, but I did not urge my men to do so, yet I do not feel sorry for their deed'' After that he started reciting cheerfully, ''O Hubal, be high! (1) On that the Prophet said (to his companions), ''Why don't you answer him back?'' They said, ''O Allah's Apostle What shall we say?'' He said, ''Say, Allah is Higher and more Sublime.'' (Then) Abu Sufyan said, ''We have the (idol) Al Uzza, and you have no Uzza.'' The Prophet said (to his companions), ''Why don't you answer him back?'' They asked, ''O Allah's Apostle! What shall we say?'' He said, ''Says Allah is our Helper and you have no helper.''

Allah's Apostle did not screen himself from me since my embracing Islam, and whenever he saw me he would receive me with a smile. Once I told him that I could not sit firm on horses. He stroke me on the chest with his hand and said, ''O Allah! Make him firm and make him a guiding and a rightly-guided man.''

I saw Allah's Apostle on the day (of the battle) of the Trench carrying earth till the hair of his chest were covered with dust and he was a hairy man. He was reciting the following verses of Abdullah (bin Rawaha): ''O Allah, were it not for You, We would not have been guided, Nor would we have given in charity, nor prayed. So, bestow on us calmness, and when we meet the enemy. Then make our feet firm, for indeed, Yet if they want to put us in affliction, (i.e. want to fight against us) we would not (flee but withstand them).'' The Prophet used to raise his voice while reciting these verses. (See Hadith No. 432, Vol. 5).

The Prophet said, ''Who is ready to kill Ka'b bin Al-Ashraf who has really hurt Allah and His Apostle?'' Muhammad bin Maslama said, ''O Allah's Apostle! Do you like me to kill him?'' He replied in the affirmative. So, Muhammad bin Maslama went to him (i.e. Ka'b) and said, ''This person (i.e. the Prophet) has put us to task and asked us for charity.'' Ka'b replied, ''By Allah, you will get tired of him.'' Muhammad said to him, ''We have followed him, so we dislike to leave him till we see the end of his affair.'' Muhammad bin Maslama went on talking to him in this way till he got the chance to kill him.

(the freed slave of Umar bin Ubaidullah) I was Umar's clerk. Once Abdullah bin Abi Aufa wrote a letter to Umar when he proceeded to Al-Haruriya. I read in it that Allah's Apostle in one of his military expeditions against the enemy, waited till the sun declined and then he got up amongst the people saying, ''O people! Do not wish to meet the enemy, and ask Allah for safety, but when you face the enemy, be patient, and remember that Paradise is under the shades of swords.'' Then he said, ''O Allah, the Revealer of the Holy Book, and the Mover of the clouds and the Defeater of the clans, defeat them, and grant us victory over them.''

Allah's Apostle sent a group of Ansari men to kill Abu-Rafi. One of them set out and entered their (i.e. the enemies) fort. That man said, ''I hid myself in a stable for their animals. They closed the fort gate. Later they lost a donkey of theirs, so they went out in its search. I, too, went out along with them, pretending to look for it. They found the donkey and entered their fort. And I, too, entered along with them. They closed the gate of the fort at night, and kept its keys in a small window where I could see them. When those people slept, I took the keys and opened the gate of the fort and came upon Abu Rafi and said, O Abu Rafi. When he replied me, I proceeded towards the voice and hit him. He shouted and I came out to come back, pretending to be a helper. I said, O Abu Rafi, changing the tone of my voice. He asked me, What do you want; woe to your mother?' I asked him, What has happened to you?' He said, I don't know who came to me and hit me.' Then I drove my sword into his belly and pushed it forcibly till it touched the bone. Then I came out, filled with puzzlement and went towards a ladder of theirs in order to get down but I fell down and sprained my foot. I came to my companions and said, I will not leave till I hear the wailing of the women.' So, I did not leave till I heard the women bewailing Abu Rafi, the merchant pf Hijaz. Then I got up, feeling no ailment, (and we proceeded) till we came upon the Prophet and informed him.''

Allah's Apostles said to me, ''Will you relieve me from Dhul-Khalasa? Dhul-Khalasa was a house (of an idol) belonging to the tribe of Khath'am called Al-Ka'ba Al-Yama-niya. So, I proceeded with one hundred and fifty cavalry men from the tribe of Ahmas, who were excellent knights. It happened that I could not sit firm on horses, so the Prophet , stroke me over my chest till I saw his finger-marks over my chest, he said, O Allah! Make him firm and make him a guiding and rightly guided man.' '' Jarir proceeded towards that house, and dismantled and burnt it. Then he sent a messenger to Allah's Apostle informing him of that. Jarir's messenger said, ''By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I did not come to you till I had left it like an emancipated or gabby camel (i.e. completely marred and spoilt).'' Jarir added, ''The Prophet asked for Allah's Blessings for the horses and the men of Ahmas five times.''

A group of eight men from the tribe of Ukil came to the Prophet and then they found the climate of Medina unsuitable for them. So, they said, ''O Allah's Apostle! Provide us with some milk.'' Allah's Apostle said, ''I recommend that you should join the herd of camels.'' So they went and drank the urine and the milk of the camels (as a medicine) till they became healthy and fat. Then they killed the shepherd and drove away the camels, and they became unbelievers after they were Muslims. When the Prophet was informed by a shouter for help, he sent some men in their pursuit, and before the sun rose high, they were brought, and he had their hands and feet cut off. Then he ordered for nails which were heated and passed over their eyes, and whey were left in the Harra (i.e. rocky land in Medina). They asked for water, and nobody provided them with water till they died (Abu Qilaba, a sub-narrator said, ''They committed murder and theft and fought against Allah and His Apostle, and spread evil in the land.'')
