while there were idols in it. So he ordered that they be taken out.
The pictures of the (Prophets) Abraham and Ishmael, holding arrows
of divination in their hands, were carried out. The Prophet said,
"May Allah ruin them (i.e. the infidels) for they knew very well
that they (i.e. Abraham and Ishmael) never drew lots by these
(divination arrows). Then the Prophet entered the Ka'ba and said.
"Allahu Akbar" in all its directions and came out and not offer any
prayer therein.

'Umar used to admit me (into his house) along with the old men who
had fought in the Badr battle. Some of them said (to 'Umar), "Why do
you allow this young man to enter with us, while we have sons of his
own age? " 'Umar said, "You know what person he is." One day 'Umar
called them and called me along with them, I had thought he called
me on that day to show them something about me (i.e. my knowledge).
'Umar asked them, "What do you say about (the Sura): "When comes the
help of Allah and the Conquest (of Mecca) And you see mankind
entering the Religion of Allah (i.e. Islam) in crowds. 'So celebrate
the Praises Of your Lord and ask for His forgiveness, Truly, He is
the One Who accepts repentance and forgives." (110.1-3)
Some of them replied, "We are ordered to praise Allah and repent to
Him if we are helped and granted victory." Some said, "We do not
know." Others kept quiet. 'Umar then said to me, "Do you say
similarly?" I said, "No." 'Umar said "What do you say then?" I said,
"This Verse indicates the approaching of the death of Allah's
Apostle of which Allah informed him. When comes the help of Allah
and the Conquest, i.e. the Conquest of Mecca, that will be the sign
of your Prophet's) approaching death, so testify the uniqueness of
your Lord (i.e. Allah) and praise Him and repent to Him as He is
ready to forgive." On that, 'Umar said, "I do not know about it
anything other than what you know."

Al-Adawi that he said to 'Amr bin Said while the latter was sending
troops in batches to Mecca, "O chief! Allow me to tell you a
statement which Allah's Apostle said on the second day of the
Conquest of Mecca. My two ears heard it and my heart remembered it
and my two eyes saw him when he said it. He (i.e. the Prophet)
praised Allah and then said, 'Mecca has been made a sanctuary by
Allah and not by the people, so it is not lawful for a person, who
believes in Allah and the Last Day to shed blood in it, or to cut
its trees and if someone asks the permission to fight in Mecca
because Allah's Apostle was allowed to fight in it, say to him;
Allah permitted His Apostle and did not allow you, and even he (i.e.
the Apostle) was allowed for a short period of the day, and today
its (Mecca's sanctity has become the same as it was before (of old)
so those who are present should inform those who are absent (this
Hadith)." Then Abu Shuraih, was asked, "What did 'Amr say to you?
Abu Shuraih said, "He said, "I knew that better than you, O Abu
Shuraih! The Haram (i.e. Mecca) does not give refuge to a sinner or
a fleeing murderer or a person running away after causing destruction."

Narrated 'Amr bin Salama:
We were at a place which was a thoroughfare for the people, and the
caravans used to pass by us and we would ask them, "What is wrong
with the people? What is wrong with the people? Who is that man?.
They would say, "That man claims that Allah has sent him (as an
Apostle), that he has been divinely inspired, that Allah has
revealed to him such-and-such." I used to memorize that (Divine)
Talk, and feel as if it was inculcated in my chest (i.e. mind) And
the 'Arabs (other than Quraish) delayed their conversion to Islam
till the Conquest (of Mecca). They used to say." "Leave him (i.e.
Muhammad) and his people Quraish: if he overpowers them then he is a
true Prophet. So, when Mecca was conquered, then every tribe rushed
to embrace Islam, and my father hurried to embrace Islam before (the
other members of) my tribe. When my father returned (from the
Prophet) to his tribe, he said, "By Allah, I have come to you from
the Prophet for sure!" The Prophet afterwards said to them, 'Offer
such-and-such prayer at such-and-such time, and when the time for
the prayer becomes due, then one of you should pronounce the Adhan
(for the prayer), and let the one amongst you who knows Qur'an most
should, lead the prayer." So they looked for such a person and found
none who knew more Qur'an than I because of the Quranic material
which I used to learn from the caravans. They therefore made me
their Imam ((to lead the prayer) and at that time I was a boy of six
or seven years, wearing a Burda (i.e. a black square garment) proved
to be very short for me (and my body became partly naked). A lady
from the tribe said, "Won't you cover the anus of your reciter for
us?" So they bought (a piece of cloth) and made a shirt for me. I
had never been so happy with anything before as I was with that shirt.

Utba bin Abi Waqqas authorized his brother Sad to take the son of
the slave-girl of Zam'a into his custody. 'Utba said (to him). "He

Conquest (of Mecca), Sad bin Abi Waqqas took the son of the
slave-girl of Zam'a and took him to the Prophet 'Abd bin Zam'a too
came along with him. Sad said. "This is the son of my brother and
the latter has informed me that he is his son." 'Abd bin Zam'a said,
"O Allah's Apostle! This is my brother who is the son of the
slave-girl of Zam'a and was born on his (i.e. Zam'as) bed.' Allah's
Apostle looked at the son of the slave-girl of Zam'a and noticed
that he, of all the people had the greatest resemblance to 'Utba bin
Abi Waqqas. Allah's Apostle then said (to 'Abd), " He is yours; he
is your brother, O 'Abd bin Zam'a, he was born on the bed (of your
father)." (At the same time) Allah's Apostle said (to his wife
Sauda), "Veil yourself before him (i.e. the son of the slave-girl) O
Sauda," because of the resemblance he noticed between him and Utba
bin Abi Waqqas. Allah's Apostle added, "The boy is for the bed (i.e.
for the owner of the bed where he was born), and stone is for the
adulterer." (Ibn Shihab said, "Abu Huraira used to say that (i.e.
the last statement of the Prophet in the above Hadith 596, publicly.")

bin Zaid to intercede for her (with the Prophet). When Usama
interceded for her with Allah's Apostle, the color of the face of
Allah's Apostle changed and he said, "Do you intercede with me in a
matter involving one of the legal punishments prescribed by Allah?"
Usama said, "O Allah's Apostle! Ask Allah's Forgiveness for me." So
in the afternoon, Allah's Apostle got up and addressed the people.
He praised Allah as He deserved and then said, "Amma ba'du ! The
nations prior to you were destroyed because if a noble amongst them
stole, they used to excuse him, and if a poor person amongst them
stole, they would apply (Allah's) Legal Punishment to him. By Him in
Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is, if Fatima, the daughter of Muhammad
stole, I would cut her hand." Then Allah's Apostle gave his order in
the case of that woman and her hand was cut off. Afterwards her
repentance proved sincere and she got married. 'Aisha said, "That
lady used to visit me and I used to convey her demands to Allah's
Apostle

I took my brother to the Prophet after the Conquest (of Mecca) and
said, "O Allah's Apostle! I have come to you with my brother so that
you may take a pledge of allegiance from him for migration." The
Prophet said, The people of migration (i.e. those who migrated to
Medina before the Conquest) enjoyed the privileges of migration
(i.e. there is no need for migration anymore)." I said to the
Prophet, "For what will you take his pledge of allegiance?" The
Prophet said, "I will take his pledge of allegiance for Islam,
Belief, and for Jihad (i.e. fighting in Allah's Cause)"

Cause) and intentions." (See Hadith 42, in the 4th Vol. for its
Explanation)

It (i.e. fighting in it) was not made lawful to anyone before me!,
nor will it be made lawful to anyone after me, and it was not made
lawful for me except for a short period of time. Its game should not
be chased, nor should its trees be cut, nor its vegetation or grass
uprooted, not its Luqata (i.e. Most things) picked up except by one
who makes a public announcement about it." Al-Abbas bin 'Abdul
Muttalib said, "Except the Idhkhir, O Allah's Apostle, as it is
indispensable for blacksmiths and houses." On that, the Prophet kept
quiet and then said, "Except the Idhkhir as it is lawful to cut."

Narrated Abu Ishaq:
Al-Bara' was asked while I was listening, "Did you flee (before the

That he heard Al-Bara narrating when a man from Qais (tribe) asked
him "Did you flee leaving Allah's Apostle on the day (of the battle)
of Hunain?" Al-Bara' replied, "But Allah's Apostle did not flee. The
people of Hawazin were good archers, and when we attacked them, they
fled. But rushing towards the booty, we were confronted by the
arrows (of the enemy). I saw the Prophet riding his white mule while
Abu Sufyan was holding its reins, and the Prophet was saying "I am
the Prophet undoubtedly." (Israil and Zuhair said, "The Prophet
dismounted from his Mule.")

Narrated Marwan and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama:
When the delegate of Hawazin came to Allah's Apostle declaring their
conversion to Islam and asked him to return their properties and
captives, Allah's Apostle got up and said to them, "There Is
involved in this matter, the people whom you see with me, and the
most beloved talk to me, is the true one. So choose one of two
alternatives: Either the captives or the properties. I have been
waiting for you (i.e. have not distributed the booty)." Allah's
Apostle had delayed the distribution of their booty over ten nights
after his return from Ta'if. So when they came to know that Allah's
Apostle was not going to return to them but one of the two, they
said, "We prefer to have our captives." So Allah's Apostle got up
amongst the Muslims, and praising Allah as He deserved, said, "To
proceed! Your brothers have come to you with repentance and I see
(it logical) to return their captives. So, whoever of you likes to
do that as a favor then he can do it. And whoever of you likes to
stick to his share till we give him from the very first booty which
Allah will give us, then he can do so." The people said, "We do that
(i.e. return the captives) willingly as a favor, 'O Allah's
Apostle!" Allah's Apostle said, "We do not know which of you have
agreed to it and which have not; so go back and let your chiefs
forward us your decision." They went back and their chief's spoke to
them, and they (i.e. the chiefs) returned to Allah's Apostle and
informed him that all of them had agreed (to give up their captives)
with pleasure, and had given their permission (i.e. that the
captives be returned to their people). (The sub-narrator said, "That
is what has reached me about the captives of Hawazin tribe.")

Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
When we returned from (the battle of) Hunain, 'Umar asked the
Prophet about a vow which he had made during the Pre-lslamic period
of Ignorance that he would perform Itikaf. The Prophet ordered him
to fulfill his vow.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 610
Narrated Abu Qatada:
We set out along with the Prophet during the year of (the battle of)
Hunain, and when we faced the enemy, the Muslims (with the exception
of the Prophet and some of his companions) retreated (before the
enemy). I saw one of the pagans over-powering one of the Muslims, so
I struck the pagan from behind his neck causing his armor to be cut
off. The pagan headed towards me and pressed me so forcibly that I
felt as if I was dying. Then death took him over and he released me.
Afterwards I followed 'Umar and said to him, "What is wrong with the
people?" He said, "It is the Order of Allah." Then the Muslims
returned (to the battle after the flight) and (after overcoming the
enemy) the Prophet sat and said, "Whoever had killed an Infidel and
has an evidence to this issue, will have the Salb (i.e. the
belonging of the deceased e.g. clothes, arms, horse, etc)." I (stood
up) and said, "Who will be my witness?" and then sat down. Then the
Prophet repeated his question. Then the Prophet said the same (for
the third time). I got up and said, "Who will be my witness?" and
then sat down. The Prophet asked his former question again. So I got
up. The Prophet said, What is the matter, O Abu Qatada?" So I
narrated the whole story; A man said, "Abu Qatada has spoken the
truth, and the Salb of the deceased is with me, so please compensate
Abu Qatada on my behalf." Abu Bakr said, "No! By Allah, it will
never happen that the Prophet will leave a Lion of Allah who fights
for the Sake of Allah and His Apostle and give his spoils to you."
The Prophet said, "Abu Bakr has spoken the truth. Give it (the
spoils) back to him (O man)!" So he gave it to me and I bought a
garden in (the land of) Banu Salama with it (i.e. the spoils) and
that was the first property I got after embracing Islam.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 611
Narrated Abu Qatada:
When it was the day of (the battle of) Hunain, I saw a Muslim man
fighting with one of the pagans and another pagan was hiding himself
behind the Muslim in order to kill him. So I hurried towards the
pagan who was hiding behind the Muslim to kill him, and he raised
his hand to hit me but I hit his hand and cut it off. That man got
hold of me and pressed me so hard that I was afraid (that I would
die), then he knelt down and his grip became loose and I pushed him
and killed him. The Muslims (excepting the Prophet and some of his
companions) started fleeing and I too, fled with them. Suddenly I
met 'Umar bin Al-Khattab amongst the people and I asked him, "What
is wrong with the people?" He said, "It is the order of Allah" Then
the people returned to Allah's Apostle (after defeating the enemy).
Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever produces a proof that he has killed
an infidel, will have the spoils of the killed man." So I got up to
look for an evidence to prove that I had killed an infidel, but I
could not find anyone to bear witness for me, so I sat down. Then it
came to my mind (that I should speak of it) and I mentioned the case
to Allah's Apostle. A man from the persons who were sitting with him
(i.e. the Prophet), said, "The arms of the deceased one whom he (
i.e. Abu Qatada) has mentioned, are with me, so please compensate
him for it (i.e. the spoils)," Abu Bakr said, "No, Allah's Apostle
will not give it (i.e. the spoils) to a weak humble person from
Quraish and leave one of Allah's Lions who fights on behalf of Allah
and His Apostle." Allah's Apostle then got up and gave that (spoils)
to me, and I bought with it, a garden which was the first property I
got after embracing Islam.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 612
Narrated Abu Musa:
When the Prophet had finished from the battle of Hunain, he sent Abu
Amir at the head of an army to Autas He (i.e. Abu Amir) met Duraid
bin As Summa and Duraid was killed and Allah defeated his
companions. The Prophet sent me with Abu 'Amir. Abu Amir was shot at
his knee with an arrow which a man from Jushm had shot and fixed
into his knee. I went to him and said, "O Uncle! Who shot you?" He
pointed me out (his killer) saying, "That is my killer who shot me
(with an arrow)." So I headed towards him and overtook him, and when
he saw me, he fled, and I followed him and started saying to him,
"Won't you be ashamed? Won't you stop?" So that person stopped, and
we exchanged two hits with the swords and I killed him. Then I said
to Abu 'Amir. "Allah has killed your killer." He said, "Take out
this arrow" So I removed it, and water oozed out of the wound. He
then said, "O son of my brother! Convey my compliments to the
Prophet and request him to ask Allah's Forgiveness for me." Abu Amir
made me his successor in commanding the people (i.e. troops). He
survived for a short while and then died. (Later) I returned and
entered upon the Prophet at his house, and found him lying in a bed
made of stalks of date-palm leaves knitted with ropes, and on it
there was bedding. The strings of the bed had their traces over his
back and sides. Then I told the Prophet about our and Abu Amir's
news and how he had said "Tell him to ask for Allah's Forgiveness
for me." The Prophet asked for water, performed ablution and then
raised hands, saying, "O Allah's Forgive 'Ubaid, Abu Amir." At that
time I saw the whiteness of the Prophet's armpits. The Prophet then
said, "O Allah, make him (i.e. Abu Amir) on the Day of Resurrection,
superior to many of Your human creatures." I said, "Will you ask
Allah's Forgiveness for me?" (On that) the Prophet said, "O Allah,
forgive the sins of 'Abdullah bin Qais and admit him to a nice
entrance (i.e. paradise) on the Day of Resurrection." Abu Burda
said, "One of the prayers was for Abu 'Amir and the other was for
Abu Musa (i.e. 'Abdullah bin Qais)."

conquer Ta'if tomorrow, then take the daughter of Ghailan (in
marriage) as (she is so beautiful and fat that) she shows four folds
of flesh when facing you, and eight when she turns her back." The
Prophet then said, "These (effeminate men) should never enter upon
you (O women!)." Ibn Juraij said, "That effeminate man was called Hit."

Prophet said, "Let us return." Then the Prophet said (to them),
"Fight tomorrow." They fought and (many of them) got wounded,
whereupon the Prophet said, "We will return (to Medina) tomorrow if
Allah wills." That delighted them, whereupon the Prophet smiled. The
sub-narrator, Sufyan said once, "(The Prophet) smiled."

along with a few persons and came to the Prophet. They both said,
"We heard the Prophet saying, " If somebody claims to be the son of
somebody other than his father knowingly, he will be denied Paradise
(i.e. he will not enter Paradise).' "
Narrated Ma'mar from 'Asim from Abu Al'Aliya or Abu Uthman An-Nahdi
who said. "I heard Sad and Abu Bakra narrating from the Prophet."
'Asim said, "I said (to him), 'Very trustworthy persons have
narrated to you.' He said, 'Yes, one of them was the first to throw
an arrow in Allah's Cause and the other came to the Prophet in a
group of thirty-three persons from Ta'if.'

A bedouin came to the Prophet and said, "Won't you fulfill what you
have promised me?" The Prophet said, 'Rejoice (at what I will do for
you).' The bedouin said, "(You have said to me) rejoice too often."
Then the Prophet turned to me (i.e. Abu Musa) and Bilal in an angry
mood and said, 'The bedouin has refused the good tidings, so you
both accept them.' Bilal and I said, 'We accept them.' Then the
Prophet asked for a drinking bowl containing water and washed his
hands and face in it, and then took a mouthful of water and threw it
therein saying (to us), "Drink (some of) it and pour (some) over
your faces and chests and be happy at the good tidings." So they
both took the drinking bowl and did as instructed. Um Salama called
from behind a screen, "Keep something (of the water for your
mother." So they left some of it for her.

was at Al-Ja'rana, shaded with a cloth sheet (in the form of a tent)
and there were staying with him, some of his companions under it,
suddenly there came to him a bedouin wearing a cloak and perfumed
extravagantly. He said, "O Allah's Apostle ! What is your opinion
regarding a man who assumes the state of Ihram for 'Umra wearing a
cloak after applying perfume to his body?" 'Umar signalled with his
hand to Ya'la to come (near). Ya'la came and put his head
(underneath that cloth sheet) and saw the Prophet red-faced and when
that state (of the Prophet ) was over, he said, "Where is he who as
already asked me about the 'Umra?" The man was looked for and
brought to the Prophet The Prophet said (to him), "As for the
perfume you have applied to your body, wash it off your body)
thrice, and take off your cloak, and then do in your 'Umra the rites
you do in your Hajj."

When it was the day of the Conquest (of Mecca) Allah's Apostle
distributed the war booty amongst the people of Quraish which caused
the Ansar to become angry. So the Prophet said, "Won't you be
pleased that the people take the worldly things and you take Allah's
Apostle with you? "They said, "Yes." The Prophet said, "If the
people took their way through a valley or mountain pass, I would
take my way through the Ansar's valley or mountain pass."

Narrated Anas:
When it was the day of (the battle of) Hunain, the Prophet
confronted the tribe of Hawazin while there were ten-thousand (men)
besides the Tulaqa' (i.e. those who had embraced Islam on the day of
the Conquest of Mecca) with the Prophet. When they (i.e. Muslims)
fled, the Prophet said, "O the group of Ansari" They replied,
"Labbaik, O Allah's Apostle and Sadaik! We are under your command."
Then the Prophet got down (from his mule) and said, "I am Allah's
Slave and His Apostle." Then the pagans were defeated. The Prophet
distributed the war booty amongst the Tulaqa and Muhajirin (i.e.
Emigrants) and did not give anything to the Ansar. So the Ansar
spoke (i.e. were dissatisfied) and he called them and made them
enter a leather tent and said, Won't you be pleased that the people
take the sheep and camels, and you take Allah's Apostle along with
you?" The Prophet added, "If the people took their way through a
valley and the Ansar took their way through a mountain pass, then I
would choose a mountain pass of the Ansar"

Narrated Anas:
The Prophet gathered some people of Ansar and said, "The People of
Quraish are still close to their Pre-lslamic period of ignorance and
have suffered a lot, and I want to help them and attract their
hearts (by giving them the war booty). Won't you be pleased that the
people take the worldly things) and you take Allah's Apostle with
you to your homes?" They said, "Yes, (i.e. we are pleased with this
distribution)." The Prophet said, "'If the people took their way
through a valley and the Ansar took their way through a mountain
pass, then I would take the Ansar's valley or the Ansar's mountain
pass."

Narrated 'Abdullah:
When the Prophet distribute the war booty of Hunain, a man from the
Ansar said, "He (i.e. the Prophet), did not intend to please Allah
in this distribution." So I came to the Prophet and informed him of
that (statement) whereupon the color of his face changed and he
said, "May Allah bestow His Mercy on Moses, for he was troubled with
more than this, but he remained patient."

Narrated 'Abdullah:
When it was the day of Hunain, Prophet favored some people over some
others (in the distribution of the booty). He gave Al-Aqra'
one-hundred camels and gave Uyaina the same, and also gave other
people (of Quraish). A man said, "Allah's Pleasure was not the aim,
in this distribution." I said, "I will inform the Prophet (about
your statement)." The Prophet said, "May Allah bestow Mercy on
Moses, for he was troubled more this but he remained patient."

Narrated Anas Bin Malik:
When it was the day (of the battle) of Hunain, the tributes of
Hawazin and Ghatafan and others, along with their animals and
offspring (and wives) came to fight against the Prophet The Prophet
had with him, ten thousand men and some of the Tulaqa. The
companions fled, leaving the Prophet alone. The Prophet then made
two calls which were clearly distinguished from each other. He
turned right and said, "O the group of Ansar!" They said, "Labbaik,
O Allah's Apostle! Rejoice, for we are with you!" Then he turned
left and said, "O the group of Ansar!" They said, "Labbaik! O
Allah's Apostle! Rejoice, for we are with you!" The Prophet at that
time, was riding on a white mule; then he dismounted and said, "I am
Allah's Slave and His Apostle." The infidels then were defeated, and
on that day the Prophet gained a large amount of booty which he
distributed amongst the Muhajirin and the Tulaqa and did not give
anything to the Ansar. The Ansar said, "When there is a difficulty,
we are called, but the booty is given to other than us." The news
reached the Prophet and he gathered them in a leather tent and said,
"What is this news reaching me from you, O the group of Ansar?" They
kept silent, He added," O the group of Ansar! Won't you be happy
that the people take the worldly things and you take Allah's Apostle
to your homes reserving him for yourself?" They said, "Yes." Then
the Prophet said, "If the people took their way through a valley,
and the Ansar took their way through a mountain pass, surely, I
would take the Ansar's mountain pass." Hisham said, "O Abu Hamza
(i.e. Anas)! Did you witness that? " He replied, "And how could I be
absent from him?"

Narrated Salim's father:
The Prophet sent Khalid bin Al-Walid to the tribe of Jadhima and
Khalid invited them to Islam but they could not express themselves
by saying, "Aslamna (i.e. we have embraced Islam)," but they started
saying "Saba'na! Saba'na (i.e. we have come out of one religion to
another)." Khalid kept on killing (some of) them and taking (some
of) them as captives and gave every one of us his Captive. When
there came the day then Khalid ordered that each man (i.e. Muslim
soldier) should kill his captive, I said, "By Allah, I will not kill
my captive, and none of my companions will kill his captive." When
we reached the Prophet, we mentioned to him the whole story. On
that, the Prophet raised both his hands and said twice, "O Allah! I
am free from what Khalid has done."

Narrated 'Ali:
The Prophet sent a Sariya under the command of a man from the Ansar
and ordered the soldiers to obey him. He (i.e. the commander) became
angry and said "Didn't the Prophet order you to obey me!" They
replied, "Yes." He said, "Collect fire-wood for me." So they
collected it. He said, "Make a fire." When they made it, he said,
"Enter it (i.e. the fire)." So they intended to do that and started
holding each other and saying, "We run towards (i.e. take refuge
with) the Prophet from the fire." They kept on saying that till the
fire was extinguished and the anger of the commander abated. When
that news reached the Prophet he said, "If they had entered it (i.e.
the fire), they would not have come out of it till the Day of
Resurrection. Obedience (to somebody) is required when he enjoins
what is good."

Narrated Abu Burda:
Allah's Apostle sent Abu Musa and Muadh bin Jabal to Yemen. He sent
each of them to administer a province as Yemen consisted of two
provinces. The Prophet said (to them), "Facilitate things for the
people and do not make things difficult for them (Be kind and
lenient (both of you) with the people, and do not be hard on them)
and give the people good tidings and do not repulse them. So each of
them went to carry on his job. So when any one of them toured his
province and happened to come near (the border of the province of)
his companion, he would visit him and greet him. Once Mu'adh toured
that part of his state which was near (the border of the province
of) his companion Abu Musa. Mu'adh came riding his mule till he
reached Abu Musa and saw him sitting, and the people had gathered
around him. Behold! There was a man tied with his hands behind his
neck. Mu'adh said to Abu Musa, "O 'Abdullah bin Qais! What is this?"
Abu Musa replied. "This man has reverted to Heathenism after
embracing Islam." Mu'adh said, "I will not dismount till he is
killed." Abu Musa replied, "He has been brought for this purpose, so
come down." Mu'adh said, "I will not dismount till he is killed." So
Abu Musa ordered that he be killed, and he was killed. Then Mu'adh
dismounted and said, "O Abdullah (bin Qais)! How do you recite the
Qur'an ?" Abu Musa said, "I recite the Qur'an regularly at intervals
and piecemeal. How do you recite it O Mu'adh?" Mu'adh said, "I sleep
in the first part of the night and then get up after having slept
for the time devoted for my sleep and then recite as much as Allah
has written for me. So I seek Allah's Reward for both my sleep as
well as my prayer (at night)."
