`Umar bin Al-Khattab saw a silken dress (cloak) being sold at the gate of the Mosque and said, “O
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Would that you buy it and wear it on Fridays and when the delegates come to you!”
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “This is worn by the one who will have no share in the Hereafter.” Later on some
silk dresses were brought and Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) sent one of them to `Umar. `Umar said, “How do you
give me this to wear while you said what you said about the dress of ‘Utarid?” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “I
have not given it to you to wear.” So, `Umar gave it to a pagan brother of his in Mecca.

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “What a good Maniha (the she-camel which has recently given birth and which
gives profuse milk) is, and (what a good Maniha) (the sheep which gives profuse milk, a bowl in the
morning and another in the evening) is!”Narrated Malik:Maniha is a good deed of charity.

Once the Prophet (ﷺ) went to the house of Fatima but did not enter it. `Ali came and she told him about
that. When ‘All asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about it, he said, “I saw a (multicolored) decorated curtain on her
door. I am not interested in worldly things.” `Ali went to Fatima and told her about it. Fatima said, “I
am ready to dispense with it in the way he suggests.” The Prophet (ﷺ) ordered her to send it to such-andsuch
needy people. ”

Anas bin Malik said, “When the emigrants came Medina, they had nothing whereas the Ansar had
land and property. The Ansar gave them their land on condition that the emigrants would give them
half the yearly yield and work on the land and provide the necessaries for cultivation.” His (i.e. Anas’s
mother who was also the mother of `Abdullah bin Abu Talha, gave some date-palms to Allah’ Apostle
who gave them to his freed slave-girl (Um Aiman) who was also the mother of Usama bin Zaid. When
the Prophet (ﷺ) finished from the fighting against the people of Khaibar and returned to Medina, the
emigrants returned to the Ansar the fruit gifts which the Ansar had given them. The Prophet (ﷺ) also
returned to Anas’s mother the date-palms. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) gave Um Aiman other trees from his garden
in lieu of the old gift.

The Prophet (ﷺ) gave me a silken dress as a gift and I wore it. When I saw the signs of anger on his face, I
cut it into pieces and distributed it among my wives.”

That Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “There are forty virtuous deeds and the best of them is the Maniha of a shegoat,
and anyone who does one of these virtuous deeds hoping for Allah’s reward with firm
confidence that he will get it, then Allah will make him enter Paradise because of Hassan (a subnarrator)
said, “We tried to count those good deeds below the Maniha; we mentioned replying to the
sneezer, removing harmful things from the road, etc., but we failed to count even fifteen.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) said to me, “I will give you so much (the Prophet (ﷺ) pointed thrice with his hands) when
funds of Bahrain will come to me.” But the Prophet (ﷺ) died before the money reached him. (When it
came) Abu Bakr ordered an announcer to announce that whoever had a money claim on the Prophet (ﷺ) or
was promised to be given something, should come to Abu Bakr. I went to Abu Bakr and told him that
the Prophet (ﷺ) had promised to give me so much. On that Abu Bakr gave me three handfuls (of money).

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) distributed some cloaks but did not give anything thereof to Makhrama. Makhrama
said (to me), “O son! accompany me to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ).” When I went with him, he said, “Call him to
me.” I called him (i.e. the Prophet (ﷺ) ) for my father. He came out wearing one of those cloaks and said,
“We kept this (cloak) for you, (Makhrama).” Makhrama looked at the cloak and said, “Makhrama is
pleased,” (or the Prophet (ﷺ) said), “Is Makhrama pleased?”

A man came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and said, “I am ruined.” The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, “What do you mean?” He
said, “I had a sexual intercourse with my wife during Ramadan (while fasting).” The Prophet (ﷺ) asked
him, “Can you manumit a slave?” He replied in the negative. He then asked him, “Can you fast for
two successive months continuously” He replied in the negative. The Prophet (ﷺ) then asked him, “Can
you feed sixty poor persons?” He replied in the negative. In the meantime an Ansari came with a
basket full of dates. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to the man, “Take it and give it in charity (as an expiation of
your sin).” The man said “Should I give it to some people who are poorer than we O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)?
By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, there is no family between Medina’s two mountains poorer
than we.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) told him to take it and provide his family with it.”

My father was martyred on the day (of the battle) of Uhud and his creditors demanded the debt back
in a harsh manner. So I went to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and informed him of that, he asked them to accept the
fruits of my garden and excuse my father, but they refused. So, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did not give them the
fruits, nor did he cut them and distribute them among them, but said, “I will come to you tomorrow
morning.” So, he came to us the next morning and walked about in between the date-palms and
invoked Allah to bless their fruits. I plucked the fruits and gave back all the rights of the creditors in
full, and a lot of fruits were left for us. Then I went to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), who was sitting, and informed
him about what happened. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) told `Umar, who was sitting there, to listen to the story.
`Umar said, “Don’t we know that you are Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)? By Allah! you are Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)!”
