Volume 3, Book 50, Number 874:
Narrated Marwan and al-Miswar bin Makhrama:
(from the companions of Allah's Apostle) When Suhail
bin Amr agreed to the Treaty (of Hudaibiya), one of the
things he stipulated then, was that the Prophet should
return to them (i.e. the pagans) anyone coming to him from
their side, even if he was a Muslim; and would not
interfere between them and that person. The Muslims did
not like this condition and got disgusted with it. Suhail
did not agree except with that condition. So, the Prophet
agreed to that condition and returned Abu Jandal to his
father Suhail bin 'Amr. Thenceforward the Prophet returned
everyone in that period (of truce) even if he was a
Muslim. During that period some believing women emigrants
including Um Kalthum bint Uqba bin Abu Muait who came to
Allah's Apostle and she was a young lady then. Her
relative came to the Prophet and asked him to return her,
but the Prophet did not return her to them for Allah had
revealed the following Verse regarding women:
"O you who believe! When the believing women come to
you as emigrants. Examine them, Allah knows best as to
their belief, then if you know them for true believers,
Send them not back to the unbelievers, (for) they are not
lawful (wives) for the disbelievers, Nor are the
unbelievers lawful (husbands) for them (60.10)
Narrated 'Urwa: Aisha told me, "Allah's Apostle used to
examine them according to this Verse: "O you who believe!
When the believing women come to you, as emigrants test
them . . . for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
(60.10-12) Aisha said, "When any of them agreed to that
condition Allah's Apostle would say to her, 'I have
accepted your pledge of allegiance.' He would only say
that, but, by Allah he never touched the hand of any women
(i.e. never shook hands with them) while taking the pledge
of allegiance and he never took their pledge of allegiance
except by his words (only)."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 875:
Narrated Jarir:
When I gave the pledge of allegiance to Allah's Apostle
and he stipulated that I should give good advice to every
Muslim.

Allah's Apostle said, "If someone sells pollinated
date-palms, their fruits will be for the seller, unless
the buyer stipulates the contrary."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 878:
Narrated Urwa:
Aisha told me that Buraira came to seek her help in
writing for emancipation and at that time she had not paid
any part of her price. 'Aisha said to her, "Go to your
masters and if they agree that I will pay your price (and
free you) on condition that your Wala' will be for me, I
will pay the money." Buraira told her masters about that,
but they refused, and said, "If 'Aisha wants to do a favor
she could, but your Wala will be for us." Aisha informed
Allah's Apostle of that and he said to her, "Buy and
manumit Buraira as the Wala' will go to the manumitted."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 879:
Narrated Jabir:
While I was riding a (slow) and tired camel, the
Prophet passed by and beat it and prayed for Allah's
Blessings for it. The camel became so fast as it had never
been before. The Prophet then said, "Sell it to me for one
Uqiyya (of gold)." I said, "No." He again said, "Sell it
to me for one Uqiyya (of gold)." I sold it and stipulated
that I should ride it to my house. When we reached
(Medina) I took that camel to the Prophet and he gave me
its price. I returned home but he sent for me (and when I
went to him) he said, "I will not take your camel. Take
your camel as a gift for you." (Various narrations are
mentioned here with slight variations in expressions
relating the condition that Jabir had the right to ride
the sold camel up to Medina).
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 880:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Ansar said to the Prophet, "Divide our date-palms
between us and our emigrant brothers." The Prophet said,
"No." The Ansar said to the emigrants, "You may do the
labor (in our gardens) and we will share the fruits with
you." The emigrants said, "We hear and obey."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 881:

the condition that they would work on it and cultivate it
and they would get half of its yield.
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 882:
Narrated Uqba bin Amir:
Allah's Apostle said, "From among all the conditions
which you have to fulfill, the conditions which make it
legal for you to have sexual relations (i.e. the marriage
contract) have the greatest right to be fulfilled."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 883:
Narrated Rafi bin Khadij:
We used to work on the fields more than the other Ansar,
and we used to rent the land (for the yield of a specific
portion of it). But sometimes that portion or the rest of
the land did not give any yield, so we were forbidden (by
the Prophet ) to follow such a system, but we were allowed
to rent the land for money.
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 884:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "No town-dweller should sell for a
bedouin. Do not practice Najsh (i.e. Do not offer a high
price for a thing which you do not want to buy, in order
to deceive the people). No Muslim should offer more for a
thing already bought by his Muslim brother, nor should he
demand the hand of a girl already engaged to another
Muslim. A Muslim woman shall not try to bring about The
divorce of her sister (i.e. another Muslim woman) in order
to take her place herself."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 885:
Narrated Abu Huraira and Zaid bin Khalid Al-Juhani:
A bedouin came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's
apostle! I ask you by Allah to judge My case according to
Allah's Laws." His opponent, who was more learned than he,
said, "Yes, judge between us according to Allah's Laws,
and allow me to speak." Allah's Apostle said, "Speak." He
(i .e. the bedouin or the other man) said, "My son was
working as a laborer for this (man) and he committed
illegal sexual intercourse with his wife. The people told
me that it was obligatory that my son should be stoned to
death, so in lieu of that I ransomed my son by paying one
hundred sheep and a slave girl. Then I asked the religious
scholars about it, and they informed me that my son must
be lashed one hundred lashes, and be exiled for one year,
and the wife of this (man) must be stoned to death."
Allah's Apostle said, "By Him in Whose Hands my soul is, I
will judge between you according to Allah's Laws. The
slave-girl and the sheep are to be returned to you, your
son is to receive a hundred lashes and be exiled for one
year. You, Unais, go to the wife of this (man) and if she
confesses her guilt, stone her to death." Unais went to
that woman next morning and she confessed. Allah's Apostle
ordered that she be stoned to death.
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 886:
Narrated Aiman Al-Makki:
rs had stipulated that her Wala would be for them.' The
Prophet said,
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 887:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle forbade (1) the meeting of the caravan
(of goods) on the way, (2) and that a residing person buys
for a bedouin, (3) and that a woman stipulates the divorce
of the wife of the would-be husband, (4) and that a man
tries to cause the cancellation of a bargain concluded by
another. He also forbade An-Najsh (see Hadith 824) and
that one withholds the milk in the udder of the animal so
that he may deceive people on selling it.
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 888:
Narrated Ubai bin Kab:
Allah's Apostle said, "Moses the Apostle of Allah," and
then he narrated the whole story about him. Al-Khadir said
to Moses, "Did not I tell you that you can have no
patience with me." (18.72). Moses then violated the
agreement for the first time because of forgetfulness,
then Moses promised that if he asked Al-Khadir about
anything, the latter would have the right to desert him.
Moses abided by that condition and on the third occasion
he intentionally asked Al-Khadir and caused that condition
to be applied. The three occasions referred to above are
referred to by the following Verses:
"Call me not to account for forgetting And be not hard
upon me." (18.73)
"Then they met a boy and Khadir killed him." (18.74)
"Then they proceeded and found a wall which was on the
verge of falling and Khadir set it up straight." (18.77)
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 889:
Narrated Urwa:
Aisha said, "Buraira came to me and said, 'My people
(masters) have written the contract for my emancipation
for nine Awaq ) of gold) to be paid in yearly installments,
one Uqiyya per year; so help me." Aisha said (to her), "If
your masters agree, I will pay them the whole sum provided
the Wala will be for me." Buraira went to her masters and
told them about it, but they refused the offer and she
returned from them while Allah's Apostles was sitting. She
said, "I presented the offer to them, but they refused
unless the Wala' would be for them." When the Prophet
heard that and 'Aisha told him about It, he said to her,
"Buy Buraira and let them stipulate that her Wala' will be
for them, as the Wala' is for the manumitted." 'Aisha did
so. After that Allah's Apostle got up amidst the people,
Glorified and Praised Allah and said, "What is wrong with
some people who stipulate things which are not in Allah's
Laws? Any condition which is not in Allah's Laws is
invalid even if there were a hundred such conditions.
Allah's Rules are the most valid and Allah's Conditions
are the most solid. The Wala is for the manumitted."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 890:
Narrated Ibn Umar:
When the people of Khaibar dislocated Abdullah bin
Umar's hands and feet, Umar got up delivering a sermon
saying, "No doubt, Allah's Apostle made a contract with
the Jews concerning their properties, and said to them,
'We allow you (to stand in your land) as long as Allah
allows you.' Now Abdullah bin Umar went to his land and
was attacked at night, and his hands and feet were
dislocated, and as we have no enemies there except those
Jews, they are our enemies and the only people whom we
suspect, I have made up my mind to exile them." When Umar
decided to carry out his decision, a son of Abu Al-Haqiq's
came and addressed 'Umar, "O chief of the believers, will
you exile us although Muhammad allowed us to stay at our
places, and made a contract with us about our properties,
and accepted the condition of our residence in our land?"
'Umar said, "Do you think that I have forgotten the
statement of Allah's Apostle, i.e.: What will your
condition be when you are expelled from Khaibar and your
camel will be carrying you night after night?" The Jew
replied, "That was joke from Abu-l-Qasim." 'Umar said, "O
the enemy of Allah! You are telling a lie." 'Umar then
drove them out and paid them the price of their properties
in the form of fruits, money, camel saddles and ropes,
etc."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 891:
Narrated Al-Miswar bin Makhrama and Marwan:
(whose narrations attest each other) Allah's Apostle
set out at the time of Al-Hudaibiya (treaty), and when
they proceeded for a distance, he said, "Khalid bin Al-Walid
leading the cavalry of Quraish constituting the front of
the army, is at a place called Al-Ghamim, so take the way
on the right." By Allah, Khalid did not perceive the
arrival of the Muslims till the dust arising from the
march of the Muslim army reached him, and then he turned
back hurriedly to inform Quraish. The Prophet went on
advancing till he reached the Thaniyya (i.e. a mountainous
way) through which one would go to them (i.e. people of
Quraish). The she-camel of the Prophet sat down. The
people tried their best to cause the she-camel to get up
but in vain, so they said, "Al-Qaswa' (i.e. the
she-camel's name) has become stubborn! Al-Qaswa' has
become stubborn!" The Prophet said, "Al-Qaswa' has not
become stubborn, for stubbornness is not her habit, but
she was stopped by Him Who stopped the elephant." Then he
said, "By the Name of Him in Whose Hands my soul is, if
they (i.e. the Quraish infidels) ask me anything which
will respect the ordinances of Allah, I will grant it to
them."
The Prophet then rebuked the she-camel and she got up.
The Prophet changed his way till he dismounted at the
farthest end of Al-Hudaibiya at a pit (i.e. well)
containing a little water which the people used in small
amounts, and in a short while the people used up all its
water and complained to Allah's Apostle; of thirst. The
Prophet took an arrow out of his arrow-case and ordered
them to put the arrow in that pit. By Allah, the water
started and continued sprouting out till all the people
quenched their thirst and returned with satisfaction.
While they were still in that state, Budail bin
Warqa-al-Khuza'i came with some persons from his tribe
Khuza'a and they were the advisers of Allah's Apostle who
would keep no secret from him and were from the people of
Tihama. Budail said, "I left Kab bin Luai and 'Amir bin
Luai residing at the profuse water of Al-Hudaibiya and
they had milch camels (or their women and children) with
them, and will wage war against you, and will prevent you
from visiting the Kaba." Allah's Apostle said, "We have
not come to fight anyone, but to perform the 'Umra. No
doubt, the war has weakened Quraish and they have suffered
great losses, so if they wish, I will conclude a truce
with them, during which they should refrain from
interfering between me and the people (i.e. the 'Arab
infidels other than Quraish), and if I have victory over
those infidels, Quraish will have the option to embrace
Islam as the other people do, if they wish; they will at
least get strong enough to fight. But if they do not
accept the truce, by Allah in Whose Hands my life is, I
will fight with them defending my Cause till I get killed,
but (I am sure) Allah will definitely make His Cause
victorious." Budail said, "I will inform them of what you
have said." So, he set off till he reached Quraish and
said, "We have come from that man (i.e. Muhammad) whom we
heard saying something which we will disclose to you if
you should like." Some of the fools among Quraish shouted
that they were not in need of this information, but the
wiser among them said, "Relate what you heard him saying."
Budail said, "I heard him saying so-and-so," relating what
the Prophet had told him.
Urwa bin Mas'ud got up and said, "O people! Aren't you
the sons? They said, "Yes." He added, "Am I not the
father?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Do you mistrust me?"
They said, "No." He said, "Don't you know that I invited
the people of 'Ukaz for your help, and when they refused I
brought my relatives and children and those who obeyed me
(to help you)?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Well, this man
(i.e. the Prophet) has offered you a reasonable proposal,
you'd better accept it and allow me to meet him." They
said, "You may meet him." So, he went to the Prophet and
started talking to him. The Prophet told him almost the
same as he had told Budail. Then Urwa said, "O Muhammad!
Won't you feel any scruple in extirpating your relations?
Have you ever heard of anyone amongst the Arabs
extirpating his relatives before you? On the other hand,
if the reverse should happen, (nobody will aid you, for)
by Allah, I do not see (with you) dignified people, but
people from various tribes who would run away leaving you
alone." Hearing that, Abu Bakr abused him and said, "Do
you say we would run and leave the Prophet alone?" Urwa
said, "Who is that man?" They said, "He is Abu Bakr." Urwa
said to Abu Bakr, "By Him in Whose Hands my life is, were
it not for the favor which you did to me and which I did
not compensate, I would retort on you." Urwa kept on
talking to the Prophet and seizing the Prophet's beard as
he was talking while Al-Mughira bin Shu'ba was standing
near the head of the Prophet, holding a sword and wearing
a helmet. Whenever Urwa stretched his hand towards the
beard of the Prophet, Al-Mughira would hit his hand with
the handle of the sword and say (to Urwa), "Remove your
hand from the beard of Allah's Apostle." Urwa raised his
head and asked, "Who is that?" The people said, "He is Al-Mughira
bin Shu'ba." Urwa said, "O treacherous! Am I not doing my
best to prevent evil consequences of your treachery?"
Before embracing Islam Al-Mughira was in the company of
some people. He killed them and took their property and
came (to Medina) to embrace Islam. The Prophet said (to
him, "As regards your Islam, I accept it, but as for the
property I do not take anything of it. (As it was taken
through treason). Urwa then started looking at the
Companions of the Prophet. By Allah, whenever Allah's
Apostle spat, the spittle would fall in the hand of one of
them (i.e. the Prophet's companions) who would rub it on
his face and skin; if he ordered them they would carry his
orders immediately; if he performed ablution, they would
struggle to take the remaining water; and when they spoke
to him, they would lower their voices and would not look
at his face constantly out of respect. Urwa returned to
his people and said, "O people! By Allah, I have been to
the kings and to Caesar, Khosrau and An-Najashi, yet I
have never seen any of them respected by his courtiers as
much as Muhammad is respected by his companions. By Allah,
if he spat, the spittle would fall in the hand of one of
them (i.e. the Prophet's companions) who would rub it on
his face and skin; if he ordered them, they would carry
out his order immediately; if he performed ablution, they
would struggle to take the remaining water; and when they
spoke, they would lower their voices and would not look at
his face constantly out of respect." Urwa added, "No
doubt, he has presented to you a good reasonable offer, so
please accept it." A man from the tribe of Bani Kinana
said, "Allow me to go to him," and they allowed him, and
when he approached the Prophet and his companions, Allah's
Ap le I said, "He is so-and-so who belongs to the tribe
that respects the Budn (i.e. camels of the sacrifice). So,
bring the Budn in front of him." So, the Budn were brought
before him and the people received him while they were
reciting Talbiya. When he saw that scene, he said,
"Glorified be Allah! It is not fair to prevent these
people from visiting the Ka'ba." When he returned to his
people, he said, 'I saw the Budn garlanded (with colored
knotted ropes) and marked (with stabs on their backs). I
do not think it is advisable to prevent them from visiting
the Ka'ba." Another person called Mikraz bin Hafs got up
and sought their permission to go to Muhammad, and they
allowed him, too. When he approached the Muslims, the
Prophet said, "Here is Mikraz and he is a vicious man."
Mikraz started talking to the Prophet and as he was
talking, Suhail bin Amr came.
When Suhail bin Amr came, the Prophet said, "Now the
matter has become easy." Suhail said to the Prophet
"Please conclude a peace treaty with us." So, the Prophet
called the clerk and said to him, "Write: By the Name of
Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful." Suhail
said, "As for 'Beneficent,' by Allah, I do not know what
it means. So write: By Your Name O Allah, as you used to
write previously." The Muslims said, "By Allah, we will
not write except: By the Name of Allah, the most
Beneficent, the most Merciful." The Prophet said, "Write:
By Your Name O Allah." Then he dictated, "This is the
peace treaty which Muhammad, Allah's Apostle has
concluded." Suhail said, "By Allah, if we knew that you
are Allah's Apostle we would not prevent you from visiting
the Kaba, and would not fight with you. So, write:
"Muhammad bin Abdullah." The Prophet said, "By Allah! I am
Apostle of Allah even if you people do not believe me.
Write: Muhammad bin Abdullah." (Az-Zuhri said, "The
Prophet accepted all those things, as he had already said
that he would accept everything they would demand if it
respects the ordinance of Allah, (i.e. by letting him and
his companions perform 'Umra.)" The Prophet said to Suhail,
"On the condition that you allow us to visit the House
(i.e. Ka'ba) so that we may perform Tawaf around it."
Suhail said, "By Allah, we will not (allow you this year)
so as not to give chance to the 'Arabs to say that we have
yielded to you, but we will allow you next year." So, the
Prophet got that written.
Then Suhail said, "We also stipulate that you should
return to us whoever comes to you from us, even if he
embraced your religion." The Muslims said, "Glorified be
Allah! How will such a person be returned to the pagans
after he has become a Muslim? While they were in this
state Abu- Jandal bin Suhail bin 'Amr came from the valley
of Mecca staggering with his fetters and fell down amongst
the Muslims. Suhail said, "O Muhammad! This is the very
first term with which we make peace with you, i.e. you
shall return Abu Jandal to me." The Prophet said, "The
peace treaty has not been written yet." Suhail said, "I
will never allow you to keep him." The Prophet said, "Yes,
do." He said, "I won't do.: Mikraz said, "We allow you (to
keep him)." Abu Jandal said, "O Muslims! Will I be
returned to the pagans though I have come as a Muslim?
Don't you see how much I have suffered?"
Abu Jandal had been tortured severely for the Cause of
Allah. Umar bin Al-Khattab said, "I went to the Prophet
and said, 'Aren't you truly the Apostle of Allah?' The
Prophet said, 'Yes, indeed.' I said, 'Isn't our Cause just
and the cause of the enemy unjust?' He said, 'Yes.' I
said, 'Then why should we be humble in our religion?' He
said, 'I am Allah's Apostle and I do not disobey Him, and
He will make me victorious.' I said, 'Didn't you tell us
that we would go to the Ka'ba and perform Tawaf around
it?' He said, 'Yes, but did I tell you that we would visit
the Ka'ba this year?' I said, 'No.' He said, 'So you will
visit it and perform Tawaf around it?' " Umar further
said, "I went to Abu Bakr and said, 'O Abu Bakr! Isn't he
truly Allah's Prophet?' He replied, 'Yes.' I said, 'Then
why should we be humble in our religion?' He said,
'Indeed, he is Allah's Apostle and he does not disobey his
Lord, and He will make him victorious. Adhere to him as,
by Allah, he is on the right.' I said, 'Was he not telling
us that we would go to the Kaba and perform Tawaf around
it?' He said, 'Yes, but did he tell you that you would go
to the Ka'ba this year?' I said, 'No.' He said, "You will
go to Ka'ba and perform Tawaf around it." (Az-Zuhri said,
" 'Umar said, 'I performed many good deeds as expiation
for the improper questions I asked them.' ")
When the writing of the peace treaty was concluded,
Allah's Apostle said to his companions, "Get up and'
slaughter your sacrifices and get your head shaved." By
Allah none of them got up, and the Prophet repeated his
order thrice. When none of them got up, he left them and
went to Um Salama and told her of the people's attitudes
towards him. Um Salama said, "O the Prophet of Allah! Do
you want your order to be carried out? Go out and don't
say a word to anybody till you have slaughtered your
sacrifice and call your barber to shave your head." So,
the Prophet went out and did not talk to anyone of them
till he did that, i.e. slaughtered the sacrifice and
called his barber who shaved his head. Seeing that, the
companions of the Prophet got up, slaughtered their
sacrifices, and started shaving the heads of one another,
and there was so much rush that there was a danger of
killing each other. Then some believing women came (to the
Prophet ); and Allah revealed the following Divine
Verses:--
"O you who believe, when the believing women come to
you as emigrants examine them . . ." (60.10)
Umar then divorced two wives of his who were infidels.
Later on Muawiya bin Abu Sufyan married one of them, and
Safwan bin Umaya married the other. When the Prophet
returned to Medina, Abu Basir, a new Muslim convert from
Quraish came to him. The Infidels sent in his pursuit two
men who said (to the Prophet ), "Abide by the promise you
gave us." So, the Prophet handed him over to them. They
took him out (of the City) till they reached Dhul-Hulaifa
where they dismounted to eat some dates they had with
them. Abu Basir said to one of them, "By Allah, O
so-and-so, I see you have a fine sword." The other drew it
out (of the scabbard) and said, "By Allah, it is very fine
and I have tried it many times." Abu Bair said, "Let me
have a look at it."
When the other gave it to him, he hit him with it till
he died, and his companion ran away till he came to Medina
and entered the Mosque running. When Allah's Apostle saw
him he said, "This man appears to have been frightened."
When he reached the Prophet he said, "My companion has
been murdered and I would have been murdered too." Abu
Basir came and said, "O Allah's Apostle, by Allah, Allah
has made you fulfill your obligations by your returning me
to them (i.e. the Infidels), but Allah has saved me from
them." The Prophet said, "Woe to his mother! what
excellent war kindler he would be, should he only have
supporters." When Abu Basir heard that he understood that
the Prophet would return him to them again, so he set off
till he reached the seashore. Abu Jandal bin Suhail got
himself released from them (i.e. infidels) and joined Abu
Basir. So, whenever a man from Quraish embraced Islam he
would follow Abu Basir till they formed a strong group. By
Allah, whenever they heard about a caravan of Quraish
heading towards Sham, they stopped it and attacked and
killed them (i.e. infidels) and took their properties. The
people of Quraish sent a message to the Prophet requesting
him for the Sake of Allah and Kith and kin to send for
(i.e. Abu Basir and his companions) promising that whoever
(amongst them) came to the Prophet would be secure. So the
Prophet sent for them (i.e. Abu Basir's companions) and
Allah I revealed the following Divine Verses:
"And it is He Who Has withheld their hands from you and
your hands From them in the midst of Mecca, After He made
you the victorious over them. . . . the unbelievers had
pride and haughtiness, in their hearts . . . the pride and
haughtiness of the time of ignorance." (48.24-26) And
their pride and haughtiness was that they did not confess
(write in the treaty) that he (i.e. Muhammad) was the
Prophet of Allah and refused to write: "In the Name of
Allah, the most Beneficent, the Most Merciful," and
prevented the Mushriks from visiting the Ka'ba.
Narrated Az-Zuhri: Urwa said, "Aisha told me that
Allah's Apostle used to examine the women emigrants. We
have been told also that when Allah revealed the order
that the Muslims should return to the pagans what they had
spent on their wives who emigrated (after embracing Islam)
and that the Mushriks should not. keep unbelieving women
as their wives, 'Umar divorced two of his wives, Qariba,
the daughter of Abu Urhaiya and the daughter of Jarwal Al-Khuza'i.
Later on Mu'awlya married Qariba and Abu Jahm married the
other."
When the pagans refused to pay what the Muslims had
spent on their wives, Allah revealed: "And if any of your
wives have gone from you to the unbelievers and you have
an accession (By the coming over of a woman from the other
side) (Then pay to those whose wives have gone) The
equivalent of what they had spent (On their Mahr)."
(60.11)
So, Allah ordered that the Muslim whose wife, has gone,
should be given, as a compensation of the Mahr he had
given to his wife, from the Mahr of the wives of the
pagans who had emigrated deserting their husbands.
We do not know any of the women emigrants who deserted
Islam after embracing it. We have also been told that Abu
Basir bin Asid Ath-Thaqafi came to the Prophet as a Muslim
emigrant during the truce. Al-Akhnas bin Shariq wrote to
the Prophet requesting him to return Abu Basir.
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 892:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle mentioned a person who asked an Israeli
man to lend him one-thousand Dinars, and the Israeli lent
him the sum for a certain fixed period.
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 893:
Narrated Amra:
Aisha said that Buraira came to seek her help in the
writing of her emancipation. 'Aisha said to her, "If you
wish, I will pay your masters (your price) and the wala'
will be for me." When Allah's Apostle came, she told him
about it. The Prophet said to her, "Buy her (i.e. Buraira)
and manumit her, for the Wala is for the one who
manumits." Then Allah's Apostle ascended the pulpit and
said, "What about those people who stipulate conditions
which are not in Allah's Laws? Whoever stipulates such
conditions as are not in Allah's Laws, then those
conditions are invalid even if he stipulated a hundred
such conditions."

Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "Allah has ninety-nine names,
i.e. one-hundred minus one, and whoever knows them will go
to Paradise." (Please see Hadith No. 419 Vol. 8)
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 895:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
Umar bin Khattab got some land in Khaibar and he went
to the Prophet to consult him about it saying, "O Allah'
Apostle got some land in Khaibar better than which I have
never had, what do you suggest that I do with it?" The
Prophet said, "If you like you can give the land as
endowment and give its fruits in charity." So Umar gave it
in charity as an endowment on the condition that would not
be sold nor given to anybody as a present and not to be
inherited, but its yield would be given in charity to the
poor people, to the Kith and kin, for freeing slaves, for
Allah's Cause, to the travelers and guests; and that there
would be no harm if the guardian of the endowment ate from
it according to his need with good intention, and fed
others without storing it for the future."
