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)."

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).

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

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.

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.

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."
Volume 3, Book 50, Number 894

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

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."
