Sahih Muslim

حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ وَأَبُو کُرَيْبٍ وَإِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَی وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ مُعَاذٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ قَنَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَهْرًا بَعْدَ الرُّکُوعِ فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ يَدْعُو عَلَی رِعْلٍ وَذَکْوَانَ وَيَقُولُ عُصَيَّةُ عَصَتْ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ

Muhammad reported: I asked Anas whether the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) observed Qunut in the dawn prayer. He said: Yes, (he did so) after the ruku', for a short while.

اَبِیْ مِجْلَزٍ، ← أَبِيهِ ← الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ← مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ مُعَاذٍ، ← إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ← أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، ← عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ،

حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو مَعْنٍ الرَّقَاشِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ يُونُسَ حَدَّثَنَا عِکْرِمَةُ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَقُ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ قَالَ جَائَتْ بِي أُمِّي أُمُّ أَنَسٍ إِلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ أَزَّرَتْنِي بِنِصْفِ خِمَارِهَا وَرَدَّتْنِي بِنِصْفِهِ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا أُنَيْسٌ ابْنِي أَتَيْتُکَ بِهِ يَخْدُمُکَ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ لَهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَکْثِرْ مَالَهُ وَوَلَدَهُ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَوَاللَّهِ إِنَّ مَالِي لَکَثِيرٌ وَإِنَّ وَلَدِي وَوَلَدَ وَلَدِي لَيَتَعَادُّونَ عَلَی نَحْوِ الْمِائَةِ الْيَوْمَ

Anas reported: My mother Umm Anas came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). And she prepared my lower garment out of the half of her headdress and (with the other half) she covered my upper body and said: Allah's Messenger, here is my son Unais; I have brought him to you for serving you. Invoke blessings of Allah upon him. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: O Allah, make an increase in his wealth, and progeny. Anas said: By Allah, my fortune is huge and my children, and grand-children are now more than one hundred.

أَنَسٍ، ← إِسْحَقُ ← عِكْرِمَةَ، ← عُمَرُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، ← أَبُو مَعْنٍ الرَّقَاشِيُّ

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ الْجَعْدِ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِکٍ قَالَ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَمِعَتْ أُمِّي أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ صَوْتَهُ فَقَالَتْ بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أُنَيْسٌ فَدَعَا لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثَ دَعَوَاتٍ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ مِنْهَا اثْنَتَيْنِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَأَنَا أَرْجُو الثَّالِثَةَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ

Anas b. Malik said: Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) passed (by our house) that my mother Umm Sulaim listened to his voice and said: Allah's Messenger, let my father and mother be sacrificed for thee, here is Unais (and requested him to invoke blessings upon me). So Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) invoked three blessings upon me. I have seen (the results) of the two in this very world (in regard to wealth and progeny) and I hope to see (the result) of the third one in the Hereafter.

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَسَمِعَتْ أُمِّي أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ صَوْتَهُ فَقَالَتْ بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي ← اَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ، ← الْجَعْدِ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ ← جَعْفَرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سُلَيْمَانَ ← قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ

Anas reported: Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) came to me as I was playing with playmates. He greeted and sent me on an errand and I made delay in going to my mother. When I came to her she said: What detained you? I said: Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) sent me on an errand. She said: What was the purpose? I said: It is something secret. Therupon she said: Do not then divulge the secret of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) to anyone. Anas said: By Allah, if I were to divulge it to anyone, then, O Thabit, I would have divulged it to you.

بِهِ أَحَدًا لَحَدَّثْتُکَ يَا ثَابِتُ ← أَنَسٌ وَاللَّهِ لَوْ ← لَا تُحَدِّثَنَّ بِسِرِّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أَحَدًا ← مَا حَاجَتُهُ قُلْتُ إِنَّهَا سِرٌّ ← مَا حَبَسَکَ قُلْتُ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لِحَاجَةٍ ← فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْنَا فَبَعَثَنِي إِلَی حَاجَةٍ فَأَبْطَأْتُ عَلَی أُمِّي فَلَمَّا جِئْتُ ← أَتَی عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَأَنَا أَلْعَبُ مَعَ الْغِلْمَانِ ← أَنَسٍ، ← ثَابِتٍ، ← حَمَّادٌ، ← بَهْزٌ ← أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ

Anas b. Malik reported that Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) told me something secretly. I informed none about that and Umm Sulaim asked me about it, but I did not tell her even.

بِهِ أَحَدًا بَعْدُ وَلَقَدْ سَأَلَتْنِي عَنْهُ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ فَمَا أَخْبَرْتُهَا بِهِ ← أَسَرَّ إِلَيَّ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ سِرًّا فَمَا ← اَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ، ← أَبِي ← مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ← عَارِمُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ ← حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ

Amir b. Sa'd reported that he heard his father (Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas) say: never heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) say unto one living and moving about that he was in Paradise except to 'Abdullah b. Salim.

لِحَيٍّ يَمْشِي إِنَّهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ ← رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ← أَبِي يَقُولُا مَا ← عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ← أَبِي النَّضْرِ ← مَالِكٍ، ← إِسْحَقُ بْنُ عِيسَی ← زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی الْعَنَزِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَوْنٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ عُبَادٍ قَالَ کُنْتُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فِي نَاسٍ فِيهِمْ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَائَ رَجُلٌ فِي وَجْهِهِ أَثَرٌ مِنْ خُشُوعٍ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ هَذَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ هَذَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَصَلَّی رَکْعَتَيْنِ يَتَجَوَّزُ فِيهِمَا ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَاتَّبَعْتُهُ فَدَخَلَ مَنْزِلَهُ وَدَخَلْتُ فَتَحَدَّثْنَا فَلَمَّا اسْتَأْنَسَ قُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّکَ لَمَّا دَخَلْتَ قَبْلُ قَالَ رَجُلٌ کَذَا وَکَذَا قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ مَا يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَقُولَ مَا لَا يَعْلَمُ وَسَأُحَدِّثُکَ لِمَ ذَاکَ رَأَيْتُ رُؤْيَا عَلَی عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَصَصْتُهَا عَلَيْهِ رَأَيْتُنِي فِي رَوْضَةٍ ذَکَرَ سَعَتَهَا وَعُشْبَهَا وَخُضْرَتَهَا وَوَسْطَ الرَّوْضَةِ عَمُودٌ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ أَسْفَلُهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَأَعْلَاهُ فِي السَّمَائِ فِي أَعْلَاهُ عُرْوَةٌ فَقِيلَ لِي ارْقَهْ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ فَجَائَنِي مِنْصَفٌ قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ وَالْمِنْصَفُ الْخَادِمُ فَقَالَ بِثِيَابِي مِنْ خَلْفِي وَصَفَ أَنَّهُ رَفَعَهُ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ بِيَدِهِ فَرَقِيتُ حَتَّی کُنْتُ فِي أَعْلَی الْعَمُودِ فَأَخَذْتُ بِالْعُرْوَةِ فَقِيلَ لِيَ اسْتَمْسِکْ فَلَقَدْ اسْتَيْقَظْتُ وَإِنَّهَا لَفِي يَدِي فَقَصَصْتُهَا عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ تِلْکَ الرَّوْضَةُ الْإِسْلَامُ وَذَلِکَ الْعَمُودُ عَمُودُ الْإِسْلَامِ وَتِلْکَ الْعُرْوَةُ عُرْوَةُ الْوُثْقَی وَأَنْتَ عَلَی الْإِسْلَامِ حَتَّی تَمُوتَ قَالَ وَالرَّجُلُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ

Qais b. 'Ubada reported: I was in the company of some persons, amongst whom some were the Companions of Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) in Medina, that there came a person whose face depicted the fear (of Allah). Some people said: He is a person from amongst the people of Paradise; he is a person from amongst the people of Paradise. He observed two short rak'ahs of prayer and then went out. I followed him and he got into his house and I also got in and we began to converse with each other. And when he became familiar (with me) I said to Him: When you entered (the mosque) before (your entrance in the house) a person said so and so (that you are amongst the people of Paradise), whereupon he said: It is not meet for anyone to say anything which he does not know. I shall (now) tell you why they (say) this. I saw a dream during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and narrated it to him. I seemed to be in a garden [he described its vastness, its rich fructification and its verdure]; in the midst of it, there stood an iron pillar, with its base in the earth and its summit in the sky: and upon its summit there was a handhold. It was said to me: Climb up this (pillar). I said to him (visitant in the dream): I am unable to do it. Thereupon a helper came to me, and he (supported) me (by catching hold of my) garment from behind and thus helped me with his hand and so I climbed up till I was at the summit of the pillar, and grasped the handhold. It was said to me: Ho d it tightly. It was at this that I woke up when (the handhold) was in fthe grip) of my hand. I narrated it (the dream) to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), whereupon he said: That garden implies al-Islam and that pillar implies the pillar of Islam. And that handhold is the firmest faith (as refered to in the Qur'an). And you will remain attached to Islam until you shall die. And that man was 'Abdullah b. Salim.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبَّادِ بْنِ جَبَلَةَ بْنِ أَبِي رَوَّادٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَرَمِيُّ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ قَالَ قَيْسُ بْنُ عُبَادٍ کُنْتُ فِي حَلَقَةٍ فِيهَا سَعْدُ بْنُ مَالِکٍ وَابْنُ عُمَرَ فَمَرَّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ فَقَالُوا هَذَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَقُمْتُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّهُمْ قَالُوا کَذَا وَکَذَا قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ مَا کَانَ يَنْبَغِي لَهُمْ أَنْ يَقُولُوا مَا لَيْسَ لَهُمْ بِهِ عِلْمٌ إِنَّمَا رَأَيْتُ کَأَنَّ عَمُودًا وُضِعَ فِي رَوْضَةٍ خَضْرَائَ فَنُصِبَ فِيهَا وَفِي رَأْسِهَا عُرْوَةٌ وَفِي أَسْفَلِهَا مِنْصَفٌ وَالْمِنْصَفُ الْوَصِيفُ فَقِيلَ لِيَ ارْقَهْ فَرَقِيتُ حَتَّی أَخَذْتُ بِالْعُرْوَةِ فَقَصَصْتُهَا عَلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمُوتُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَهُوَ آخِذٌ بِالْعُرْوَةِ الْوُثْقَی

Qais b. 'Ubaida reported: I was (sitting) in a company in which there were (besides others) Sa'd b. Malik and Ibn 'Umar that 'Abdullah b. Saliim happened to pass (by that side). They (the people sitting in that company) said: He is a person from amongst the dwellers of Paradise. I stood up and said to him: They say such and such (thing about you), whereupon he said: Hallowed be Allah, it is not meet for them to say (anything) of which They have no knowledge. Verily I saw as if a pillar had been raised in a green garden and there had been fixed at its (upper) end a handhold and there was a helper at its base. It was said to me: Climb up. So I climbed up and caught hold of the haildhold. I narrated (the contents of this dream) to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), whereupon he said: 'Abdullah would die in a state that he would be catching hold of the firmest handhold (he would die holding fast to the faith).

Kharasha b. Hurr reported: I was sitting in a circle in the mosque of Medina and there was an old man, quite handsome. He was 'Abdullah b. Salim. He was telling good things to them (to the people sitting in that company). As he stood up (to depart) the people said: He who is desirous of looking at a person from amongst the people of Paradise should see him. I said: By Allah, I will follow him, and would try to know his residence. So I followed him and he walked on until he reached the outskirts of Medina. He then entered his house. I sought permission from him to get in, and he granted me the permission, saying: My nephew, what is the need (that has brought you here)? I said to him: As you stood up, I heard people say about you: He who is desirous of seeing a person from among the people of Paradise should look at him. So I became desirous of accompanying you. He ('Abdullah b. Salim) said: It is Allah Who knows best about the people of Paradise. I would, however, narrate to you as to why they said like it. (The story is) that while I was asleep (one night) there came to me a person (in the dream) who asked me to stand up. (So I stood up) and he caught hold of my hand and I walked along with him, and, lo, I found some paths on my left and I was about to set out upon them. Thereupon he said to me Do not set yourself on (them) for these are the paths of the leftists (denizens of Hell-fire). Then there were paths leading to the right side, whereupon he said: Set yourself on these paths. We came across a hill and he said to me: Climb up, and I attempted to climb up that I fell upon my buttocks. I made several attempts (but failed to succeed). He led until he came to a pillar (so high) that its upper end touched the sky and its base was in the earth. And there was a handhold at its upper end. He said to me Climb over it. I said: How can I climb upon it, as its upper end touches the sky? He cought hold of my hand and pushed me up and I found myself suspended with the handhold. He then struck the pillar and it fell down, but I remained attached to that handhold until it was morning (and the dream was thus over). I came to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and narrated it to him. He said: So far as the paths which you saw on your left are concerned, these are paths of the leftists (denizens of Hell) and the paths which you saw on your right, these are the paths of the rightists (the dwellers of Paradise) and the mountain represents the destination of the martyrs which you would not be able to attain. The pillar implies the pillar of Islam. and so far as the handhold is concerned, it implies the handhold of Islam, and you would hold to it fastly until you would meet death.

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ وَإِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ کُلُّهُمْ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ عَمْرٌو حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ عُمَرَ مَرَّ بِحَسَّانَ وَهُوَ يُنْشِدُ الشِّعْرَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَحَظَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ قَدْ کُنْتُ أُنْشِدُ وَفِيهِ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْکَ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَی أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَالَ أَنْشُدُکَ اللَّهَ أَسَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ أَجِبْ عَنِّي اللَّهُمَّ أَيِّدْهُ بِرُوحِ الْقُدُسِ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ

Abu Huraira reported that 'Umar happened to pass by Hassan as he was reciting verses in the mosque. He (Hadrat 'Umar) looked towards him (meaningfully), whereupon he (gassin) said: I used to recite (verses) when one better than you (the Holy Prophet) had been present (here). He then looked towards Abu Huraira and said to him: I adjure you by Allah (to tell) if you had not heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) as saying: (Hassan), give a reply on my behalf; Allah I help him with Ruh-ul-Qudus. He (Abu Huraira) said: By Allah, it is so (i. e. the Prophet actually said these words).

Anas b. Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) observed Qunut for a month in the dawn prayer after ruku' and invoked curse upon Ri'l, Dhakwan, and said that 'Usayya had disobeyed Allah and His Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ).
