    وَعَنْ أَبِي الْجَوْزَاءِ قَالَ: قُحِطَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ قَحْطًا شَدِيدًا فَشَكَوْا إِلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ: انْظُرُوا قبر النَّبِي صلى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسلم فاجعلوا مِنْهُ كُوًى إِلَى السَّمَاءِ حَتَّى لَا يَكُونَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ سَقْفٌ فَفَعَلُوا فَمُطِرُوا مَطَرًا حَتَّى نَبَتَ الْعُشْبُ وَسَمِنَتِ الْإِبِلُ حَتَّى تَفَتَّقَتْ مِنَ الشَّحْمِ فَسُمِّيَ عَامَ الْفَتْقِ. رَوَاهُ الدَّارِمِيُّ

    Abul Jauza[*] said: The people of Medina were afflicted by a severe famine and complained to `A’isha who said, “Look at the Prophet’s grave and make windows opening from it towards the sky so that there will be no ceiling between it and the sky.” When they had done so they were given rain to such an extent that the herbage sprouted and the camels were bursting with fat. It was called the year of the bursting. *He was Aus b. ‘Abdallah ar-Rab’i. He belonged to Basra and died in 83. Darimi transmitted it.

    وَعَن سعيد بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ قَالَ: لَمَّا كَانَ أَيَّامُ الْحَرَّةِ لَمْ يُؤَذَّنْ فِي مَسْجِدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثًا وَلَمْ يُقَمْ وَلَمْ يَبْرَحْ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ الْمَسْجِدَ وَكَانَ لَا يَعْرِفُ وَقْتَ الصَّلَاةِ إِلَّا بِهَمْهَمَةٍ يَسْمَعُهَا مِنْ قَبْرِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. رَوَاهُ الدَّارمِيّ

    Sa’id b. ‘Abd al- `Aziz said: During the days of the battle of the harra [*] neither the call to prayer nor the declaration that the time for prayer had come was made for three days at the Prophet’s Mosque. Sa’id b. al-Musayyib did not leave the mosque, and the only means by which he knew the time for prayer was a whinnying he heard coming from the Prophet’s grave. *When the people of Medina rebelled against the Umayyad Caliph Yazid he sent an army under Muslim b. ‘Uqba al-Murri towards the end of 63 A.H. The Medina troops were defeated in a battle known by the name given above. Darimi transmitted it.

    وَعَنْ أَبِي خَلْدَةَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ: سَمِعَ أَنَسٌ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: خَدَمَهُ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ وَدَعَا لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَكَانَ لَهُ بُسْتَانٌ يَحْمِلُ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ الْفَاكِهَةَ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَكَانَ فِيهَا رَيْحَانٌ يَجِيءُ مِنْهُ رِيحُ الْمِسْكِ. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ

    Abu Khalda[1] told that he asked Abul `Aliya[2] whether Anas had heard anything from the Prophet, and he replied that he had served him for ten years and that the Prophet had prayed for a blessing on him. He had a garden which produced two crops of fruit annually, and in it there was basil which gave off the odour of musk. He was Khalid b. Dinar at-Tamimi as-Sa’di. He was Rufai’ b. Mihran ar-Rayahi. Tirmidhi transmitted it, saying this is a hasan gharib tradition.

    ‘Urwa b. az-Zubair told that Arwa daughter of Aus brought a dispute with Sa’id b. Zaid b. `Amr b. Nufail before Marwan b. al-Hakam claiming he had taken some of her land. Sa’id said, “Would I take any of her land after what I heard from God’s messenger?” He was asked what he had heard from God’s messenger and replied that he had heard him say, “If anyone takes a span of land wrongfully it will be tied round him like a necklace to a depth of seven earths.” Marwan said he would ask him for no proof after that, and Sa’id said, “0 God, if she is lying make her blind and kill her in her land.” Urwa said she did not die till after she had lost her eyesight. And while she was walking on her land she fell into a hole and died. (Bukhari and Muslim.) Something to the same effect is given in a version by Muslim on the authority of Muhammad b. Zaid b. `Abdallah b. `Umar who said he had seen her blind, feeling for walls, and saying she had been smitten by Sa’id’s curse; and that she had come past a well in the region about which she had disputed with him and fallen into it, and it was her grave. Muslim

    Ibn `Umar told that ‘Umar sent off an army over which he appointed a man called Sariya as commander. While `Umar was addressing the people he began to shout, `Keep near the mountain, Sari[*]” A messenger came later from the army and said, “Commander of the faithful, we met our enemy and they routed us, then someone began to shout, `Keep near the mountain, Sari,’ so we set our backs to the mountain and God most high routed them.” *A shortened form of the man’s name. Baihaqi transmitted it in Dala’il an-nubuwa .

Wahb told th at once when Ka’b[1] went in to visit `A’isha and those present mentioned God’s messenger, Ka’b said, “Not a day begins without seventy thousand angels descending, surrounding the grave of God’s messenger, beating their wings and invoking blessings on him. When evening comes, they ascend and a like number come down and do the same as that. This will go on till the earth is cloven[2] and he comes forth escorted by seventy thousand angels.” i.e., Ka’b al-Ahbar On the day of resurrection. Darimi transmitted it.

    Al-Bara’ said: The first of the companions of God’s messenger to come to us were Mus’ab b. `Umair and Ibn Umm Maktum who began to teach us the Quran[1]. Then `Ammar,[2] Bilal[3] and Sa’d[4] came. Then `Umar b. al-Khattab came with twenty of the Prophet’s companions. Then the Prophet came, and I never saw the people of Medina so happy about anything as they were about him. I even saw the little girls and boys saying, “This is God’s messenger who has come.” By the time he came I had learned “Glorify the name of your most high Lord”[5] along with similar suras from al-Mufassal . 1. These two were sent to Medina before the Hijra to teach the people who had sworn allegiance to the Prophet. 2. ‘Ammar b. Yasir. 3. Bilal b. Rabah. 4. Sa’d b. Abu Waqqe. 5. Quran:87 Bukhari transmitted it.

    Abu Sa’id al-Khudri said: God’s messenger sat on the pulpit and said, “A man was given his choice by God as to whether He should give him as much worldly comfort as he wished, or whether he should have what was with Him, and he chose what was with Him.” Abu Bakr then wept and said, “We would ransom you with our fathers and our mothers.” We were surprised at him, and some people said, “Look at this old man who says when God’s messenger is telling about a man who was given his choice by God as to whether He should give him worldly comfort or whether he should have what is with Him, `We would ransom you with our fathers and our mothers’.” Now God’s messenger was the one who was given his choice and Abu Bakr was the one among us who had most knowledge.

    `Uqba b. `Amir told that God’s messenger prayed eight years after the battle of Uhud over those who were slain there like one who was bidding farewell to the living and the dead. He then mounted the pulpit and said, “I am one who goes before you and I shall be a witness to you. Your appointed place is the Pond at which I am looking while I am where I am just now. I have been given the keys of the treasures of the earth, and I do not fear for you that you should become polytheists after I am gone, but I fear lest you should long for worldly things (some adding, and fight), and perish like your predecessors.” (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    Abd Huraira said: A wolf came to a shepherd and took a sheep, and the shepherd went after it and snatched it from it. The wolf went up on a mound, and sitting on its haunches with its tail between its legs, it said, “I went to provision, God had provided for me and took it, then you snatched it from me.” The man declared, “I swear by God that have never seen anything like what I have seen to-day, a wolf talking!” The wolf replied, “Something more wonderful than this is a man among the palm-trees between the two harras [*] who can tell you what has happened and what will happen after your time.” The man who was a Jew came to the Prophet and told him and accepted Islam. The Prophet believed him and said, “There are signs before the last hour. A man will soon go out and not return before being informed by his sandals and his whip about the new things his family have been up to since he left them.” * Two mountains. It is transmitted in Sharh as-sunna .
