Tag: Q n A, Bukhari

A man asked the Prophet (ﷺ) “When will the Hour be established O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)?” The Prophet (ﷺ) . said,
“What have you prepared for it?” The man said, ” I haven’t prepared for it much of prayers or fast or
alms, but I love Allah and His Apostle.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “You will be with those whom you love.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Everyone will be with those whom he loves.”

A man came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! What do you say about a man who loves
some people but cannot catch up with their good deeds?” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Everyone will be with
those whom he loves.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Wailakum” (woe to you) or “waihakum” (May Allah be merciful to you).” Shu`ba
is not sure as to which was the right word. “Do not become disbelievers after me by cutting the necks
of one another.”

A bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! When will The Hour be established?”
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Wailaka (Woe to you), What have you prepared for it?” The bedouin said, “I have
not prepared anything for it, except that I love Allah and H is Apostle.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “You will
be with those whom you love.” We (the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) ) said, “And will we too be so?
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Yes.” So we became very glad on that day. In the meantime, a slave of Al-Mughira
passed by, and he was of the same age as I was. The Prophet (ﷺ) said. “If this (slave) should live long, he
will not reach the geriatric old age, but the Hour will be established.”

A man came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! I am ruined!” The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
“Waihaka (May Allah be merciful to you) !” The man said, “I have done sexual intercourse with my
wife while fasting in Ramadan.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Manumit a slave.” The man said, ” I cannot afford
that. ” The Prophet (ﷺ) said; “Then fast for two successive months.” The man said, ” I have no power to
do so.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Then feed sixty poor persons.” The man said, “I have nothing (to feed sixty
persons). Later a basket full of dates were brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he said (to the man), “Take it
and give it in charity.” The man said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Shall I give it to people other than my
family? By Him in Whose Hand my life is, there is nobody poorer than me in the whole city of
Medina.” The Prophet (ﷺ) smiled till his premolar teeth became visible, and said, “Take it.” Az-Zuhri said
(that the Prophet (ﷺ) said). “Wailaka.”

A bedouin said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Inform me about the emigration.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Waihaka
(May Allah be merciful to you)! The question of emigration is a difficult one. Have you got some
camels?” The bedouin said, “Yes.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Do you pay their Zakat?” He said, “Yes.” The
Prophet said, “Go on doing like this from beyond the seas, for Allah will not let your deeds go in
vain.”

A man praised another man in front of the Prophet. The Prophet (ﷺ) said thrice, “Wailaka (Woe on you) !
You have cut the neck of your brother!” The Prophet (ﷺ) added, “If it is indispensable for anyone of you
to praise a person, then he should say, “I think that such-and-such person (is so-and-so), and Allah is
the one who will take his accounts (as he knows his reality) and none can sanctify anybody before
Allah (and that only if he knows well about that person.)”.

While the Prophet (ﷺ) was distributing (war booty etc.) one day, Dhul Khawaisira, a man from the tribe of
Bani Tamim, said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Act justly.” The Prophets said, “Woe to you! Who else would
act justly if I did not act justly?” `Umar said (to the Prophet (ﷺ) ), “Allow me to chop his neck off.” The
Prophet said, “No, for he has companions (who are apparently so pious that) if anyone of (you
compares his prayer with) their prayer, he will consider his prayer inferior to theirs, and similarly his
fasting inferior to theirs, but they will desert Islam (go out of religion) as an arrow goes through the
victim’s body (games etc.) in which case if its Nasl is examined nothing will be seen thereon, and if its
Nady is examined, nothing will be seen thereon, and if its Qudhadh is examined, nothing will be seen
thereon, for the arrow has gone out too fast even for the excretions and blood to smear over it. Such
people will come out at the time of difference among the (Muslim) people and the sign by which they
will be recognized, will be a man whose one of the two hands will look like the breast of a woman or
a lump of flesh moving loosely.” Abu Sa`id added, “I testify that I heard that from the Prophet (ﷺ) and
also testify that I was with `Ali when `Ali fought against those people. The man described by the
Prophet was searched for among the killed, and was found, and he was exactly as the Prophet (ﷺ) had
described him.” (See Hadith No. 807, Vol. 4)

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saw a man driving a Badana (a camel for sacrifice) and said to him, “Ride on it.” The
man said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! It is a Bandana.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Ride on it, woe to you!” on the
second or third time.
