حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ قَالَ هَذَا مَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرَ أَحَادِيثَ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَغْيَظُ رَجُلٍ عَلَى اللَّهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَأَخْبَثُهُ وَأَغْيَظُهُ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٍ كَانَ يُسَمَّى مَلِكَ الْأَمْلَاكِ لَا مَلِكَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: The most wretched person in the sight of Allah on the Day of Resurrection and the worst person and target of His wrath would of the person who is called Malik al-Amlak (the King of Kings) for there is no king but Allah.

— Abu Huraira رضی اللہ عنہ reported from Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) so many a hadith and one of them was this

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ ذَهَبْتُ بِعْبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ وُلِدَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي عَبَاءَةٍ يَهْنَأُ بَعِيرًا لَهُ فَقَالَ هَلْ مَعَكَ تَمْرٌ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَنَاوَلْتُهُ تَمَرَاتٍ فَأَلْقَاهُنَّ فِي فِيهِ فَلَاكَهُنَّ ثُمَّ فَغَرَ فَا الصَّبِيِّ فَمَجَّهُ فِي فِيهِ فَجَعَلَ الصَّبِيُّ يَتَلَمَّظُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حُبُّ الْأَنْصَارِ التَّمْرَ وَسَمَّاهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ.

I took 'Abdullah bin Abi Talha Ansari to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) at the time of his birth. Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) was at that time wearing a woollen cloak and besmearing the camels with tar. He said: Have you got with you the dates? I said: Yes. He took hold of the dates and put them in his mouth and softened them, then opened the mouth of the infant and put that in it and the child began to lick it. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: The Ansar have a liking for the dates, and he (the Holy Prophet) gave him the name of 'Abdullah.

— Anas bin Malik رضی اللہ عنہ reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ عَنْ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ كَانَ ابْنٌ لِأَبِي طَلْحَةَ يَشْتَكِي فَخَرَجَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ فَقُبِضَ الصَّبِيُّ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ قَالَ مَا فَعَلَ ابْنِي قَالَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ هُوَ أَسْكَنُ مِمَّا كَانَ فَقَرَّبَتْ إِلَيْهِ الْعَشَاءَ فَتَعَشَّى ثُمَّ أَصَابَ مِنْهَا فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ قَالَتْ وَارُوا الصَّبِيَّ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ أَعْرَسْتُمْ اللَّيْلَةَ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمَا فَوَلَدَتْ غُلَامًا فَقَالَ لِي أَبُو طَلْحَةَ احْمِلْهُ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبَعَثَتْ مَعَهُ بِتَمَرَاتٍ فَأَخَذَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَمَعَهُ شَيْءٌ قَالُوا نَعَمْ تَمَرَاتٌ فَأَخَذَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَضَغَهَا ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا مِنْ فِيهِ فَجَعَلَهَا فِي فِي الصَّبِيِّ ثُمَّ حَنَّكَهُ وَسَمَّاهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ.

The son of Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ had been ailing. Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ set out (on a journey) and his son breathed his last (in his absence). When Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ came back, he said (to his wife): What about my child? Umm Sulaim (the wife of Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ) said: He is now in a more comfortable state than before. She served him the evening meal and he took it. He then came to her (and had sexual intercourse with her) and when it was all over she said: Make arrangements for the burial of the child. When it was morning. Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and informed him, whereupon he said: Did you spend the night with her. He said: Yes. He (the Holy Prophet) then said: O Allah, bless both of them (and as a result of blessing) she gave birth to a child. Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ said to me (Anas b. Malik) to take the child, (so I took him) and came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). She (Umm Sulaim) also had sent some dates (along with the child). Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) took him (the child) (in his lap) and said: Is there anything with you (for Tahnik). They (the Companions) said: Yes. Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) took hold of them (dates and chewed them). He then put them (the chewed dates) in the mouth of the child and then rubbed his palate and gave him the name of 'Abdullah.

— Anas bin Malik رضی اللہ عنہ reported

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ بِهَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ يَزِيدَ.

This hadith has been reported on the authority of Anas رضی اللہ عنہ through another chain of transmitters.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَرَّادٍ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى قَالَ وُلِدَ لِي غُلَامٌ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَمَّاهُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَحَنَّكَهُ بِتَمْرَةٍ.

A child was born in my house and I brought him to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) and he gave him the name of Ibrahim and he rubbed his palate with dates.

— Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ reported

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ مُوسَى أَبُو صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِسْحَقَ أَخْبَرَنِي هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ حَدَّثَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ وَفَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ الْمُنْذِرِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُمَا قَالَا خَرَجَتْ أَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ حِينَ هَاجَرَتْ وَهِيَ حُبْلَى بِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ فَقَدِمَتْ قُبَاءً فَنُفِسَتْ بِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بِقُبَاءٍ ثُمَّ خَرَجَتْ حِينَ نُفِسَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيُحَنِّكَهُ فَأَخَذَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْهَا فَوَضَعَهُ فِي حَجْرِهِ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِتَمْرَةٍ قَالَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَمَكَثْنَا سَاعَةً نَلْتَمِسُهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ نَجِدَهَا فَمَضَغَهَا ثُمَّ بَصَقَهَا فِي فِيهِ فَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ شَيْءٍ دَخَلَ بَطْنَهُ لَرِيقُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ قَالَتْ أَسْمَاءُ ثُمَّ مَسَحَهُ وَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَسَمَّاهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ جَاءَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ أَوْ ثَمَانٍ لِيُبَايِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَمَرَهُ بِذَلِكَ الزُّبَيْرُ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ رَآهُ مُقْبِلًا إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ بَايَعَهُ.

Asma' رضی اللہ عنہا daughter of Abu Bakr was at the time of migration in the family way with 'Abdullah bin Zubair (in her womb). She came to Quba' and gave birth to 'Abdullah at that place and then sent him to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) so that he should rub his palate with chewed dates. Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) took hold of him (the child) and he placed him in his lap and then called for dates. 'A'isha رضی اللہ عنہا said: Some time was spent before we were able to find them. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) chewed them and then put his saliva in his mouth. The first thing that entered his stomach, was the saliva of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌). Asma' رضی اللہ عنہا said: He then rubbed him and blessed him and gave him the name of Abdullah. He ('Abdullah) went to him (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) when he had attained the age of seven or eight years in order to pledge allegiance to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as Zubair رضی اللہ عنہ had commanded him to do. Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) smiled when he saw him coming towards him and then accepted his allegiance.

— Urwa bin Zubair and Fatima daughter of Mandhir bin Zubair, reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ أَنَّهَا حَمَلَتْ بِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ بِمَكَّةَ قَالَتْ فَخَرَجْتُ وَأَنَا مُتِمٌّ فَأَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَنَزَلْتُ بِقُبَاءٍ فَوَلَدْتُهُ بِقُبَاءٍ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَوَضَعَهُ فِي حَجْرِهِ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِتَمْرَةٍ فَمَضَغَهَا ثُمَّ تَفَلَ فِي فِيهِ فَكَانَ أَوَّلَ شَيْءٍ دَخَلَ جَوْفَهُ رِيقُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ حَنَّكَهُ بِالتَّمْرَةِ ثُمَّ دَعَا لَهُ وَبَرَّكَ عَلَيْهِ وَكَانَ أَوَّلَ مَوْلُودٍ وُلِدَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ.

She had become pregnant at Mecca with Abdullah bin Zubair رضی اللہ عنہ (in her womt) and she (further) said: I set out (for migration to Medina) as I was in the advanced stage of pregnancy. I came to Medina and got down at the place known as Quba' and gave birth to a child there. Then I came to Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him). He placed him (the child) in his lap and then commanded for the dates to be brought. He chewed them and then put the saliva in his mouth. The first thing which went into his stomach was the saliva of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). He then rubbed his palate with dates and then invoked blessings for him and blessed him. He was the first child who was born in Islam (after Migration).

— Asma' رضی اللہ عنہا reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُسْهِرٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ أَنَّهَا هَاجَرَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهِيَ حُبْلَى بِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ.

When she migrated to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) in Medina she was in the family way with Abdullah bin Zubair رضی اللہ عنہ in her womb. A hadith like that of Abu Usamah (no. 5417).

— Asma' daughter of Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہا reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِالصِّبْيَانِ فَيُبَرِّكُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيُحَنِّكُهُمْ.

The new-born infants were brought to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). He blessed them and rubbed their palates with dates.

— A'isha reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الْأَحْمَرُ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ جِئْنَا بِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحَنِّكُهُ فَطَلَبْنَا تَمْرَةً فَعَزَّ عَلَيْنَا طَلَبُهَا.

We took 'Abdullah bin Zubair رضی اللہ عنہ to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) so that he should put saliva in his mouth and we had to make a good deal of effort in order to procure them.

— A'isha رضی اللہ عنہا reported

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ التَّمِيمِيُّ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَقَ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُطَرِّفٍ أَبُو غَسَّانَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو حَازِمٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ أُتِيَ بِالْمُنْذِرِ بْنِ أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ وُلِدَ فَوَضَعَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ وَأَبُو أُسَيْدٍ جَالِسٌ فَلَهِيَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَيْءٍ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَأَمَرَ أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ بِابْنِهِ فَاحْتُمِلَ مِنْ عَلَى فَخِذِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَقْلَبُوهُ فَاسْتَفَاقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَيْنَ الصَّبِيُّ فَقَالَ أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ أَقْلَبْنَاهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ مَا اسْمُهُ قَالَ فُلَانٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ لَا وَلَكِنْ اسْمُهُ الْمُنْذِرُ فَسَمَّاهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ الْمُنْذِرَ.

Mundhir bin Aba Usaid رضی اللہ عنہ was brought to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) at the time of his birth Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) placed him on his thigh and Abu Usaid kept sitting there. Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) had been occupied with something else before him. Abu Usaid رضی اللہ عنہ commanded his child to be lifted from the lap of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) and so he was lifted. When Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) had finished the work he said: Where is the child? Abd Usaid said: Allah's Messenger, we took him away. He said: What is his name? He said; Allah's Messenger, it is so and so, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: Nay, his name is Mundhir, and named him Mundhir on that day.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) had the sublimest character among mankind. I had a brother who was called Abu 'Umair. I think he was weaned. When Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) came to our house he saw him, and said: Abu 'Umair, what has the sparrow done? He (Anas) said that he had been playing with that.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) addressed me: O My Son.

— Anas bin Malik رضی اللہ عنہ reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ أَبِي عُمَرَ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ عَنْ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ عَنْ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ مَا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَحَدٌ عَنْ الدَّجَّالِ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ لِي أَيْ بُنَيَّ وَمَا يُنْصِبُكَ مِنْهُ إِنَّهُ لَنْ يَضُرَّكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ إِنَّهُمْ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ مَعَهُ أَنْهَارَ الْمَاءِ وَجِبَالَ الْخُبْزِ قَالَ هُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ.

None else had asked more questions from Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) about the Dajjal than I, but he simply said in a slight mood): O, my son, why are you worried because of him? He will not harm you. I said: The people think that he would have with him rivers of water and mountains of bread, whereupon he said: He would be more insignificant in the sight of Allah than all these things (belonging to him).

It was narrated from Ismail with this chain of narrators (a hadith similar to no. 5624), but it does not mention in the Hadith of any of them the words of the prophet ﷺ to Al-Mughirah رضی اللہ عنہ : "O my son," except the hadith of Yazid (no. 5624).

I was sitting in Medina in the company of the Ansar when Abu Musa came trembling with fear. We said to him: What is the matter? He said: 'Umar ( رضی اللہ عنہ ) sent for me. I went to him and paid him salutation thrice at (his) door but he made no response to me and so I came back. Thereupon he ('Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) said: What stood in your way that you did not turn up? I said: I did come to you and paid you salutations at your door three times but I was not given any response, so I came back as the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) has said: When any one of you seeks permission three times and he is not granted permission, he should come back. Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: Bring a witness to support that you say, otherwise I shall take you to task. Ubayy bin Ka'b رضی اللہ عنہ said: None should stand with him (as a witness) but the youngest amongst the people. Abu Sa'id رضی اللہ عنہ said: I am the youngest amongst the people, whereupon he said: Then you go with him (to support his contention).

We were in the company of Ubayy bin Ka'b رضی اللہ عنہ that Abu Musa Ash'ari رضی اللہ عنہ came there in a state of anger. He stood (before us) and said: I ask you to bear witness in the name of Allah whether anyone amongst you heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) as saying: Permission (for entering the house) should be sought three times and if permission is granted to you (then get in). otherwise go back. Ubayy bin Ka'b رضی اللہ عنہ said: What is the matter? He said: I sought permission yesterday from 'Umar bin Khattab رضی اللہ عنہ three times but he did not permit me, so I came back; then I went to him today and visited him and informed him that I had come to him yesterday and greeted him thrice, then came back, whereupon he said: Yes, we did hear you but be were at that time busy, but why did you not seek permission (further and you must have never gone back until you were permitted to do so). He said: I sought permission (in the manner) that I heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) having said (in connection 'With the seeking of permission for entering the house of a stranger). Thereupon he (Hadrat Umar رضی اللہ عنہ) said: By Allah, I shall torture your back and your stomach unless you bring one who may bear witness to what you state. 'Ubayy bin Ka'b رضی اللہ عنہ said: By Allah, none should stand with you (to bear testimony) but the youngest amongst us. And he therefore, said to Abu Sa'id رضی اللہ عنہ : Stand up. So I stood up until I came to Umar رضی اللہ عنہ and said: I heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) say this.

Abu Musa al-Ash'ari رضی اللہ عنہ came to the door of 'Umar and sought his permission (to get into his house). Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: That is once. He again sought permission for the second time and 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: It is twice. He again sought permission for the third time and Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: It is thrice. He (Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ ) then went back. He (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) (sent someone) to pursue him so that he should be brought back. Thereupon he (Hadrat Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) said: If this act (of yours is in accordance with the command of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) you have preserved in your mind, then it is all right, otherwise (I shall give you such a severe punishment) that it will serve as an example to others. Abu Sa'id رضی اللہ عنہ said: Then he (Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ ) came to us and said: Do you remember Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) having said this: Permission is for three times ? They (Companions sitting in that company) began to laugh, whereupon he (Abu Musa) said: There comes to you your Muslim brother who had been perturbed and you laugh. Abu Sa'id رضی اللہ عنہ said: (Well), you go forth. I shall be your participant in this trouble of yours. So he came to him (Hadrat Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) and said: Here is Abu Sa'id رضی اللہ عنہ (to support my statement).

Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ brought permission from Umar رضی اللہ عنہ (to enter the house) three times, and finding him busy came back, whereupon Umar said (to the Inmates of his house): Did you not hear the voice of 'Abdullah bin Qais (the Kunya of Abu Musa Ash'ari رضی اللہ عنہ)? He was called back. and he (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ) said: What did prompt you to do it? Thereupon, he said: This is how we have been commanded to act. He (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) said: Bring evidence (in support of) it, otherwise I shall deal (strictly) with you. So he (Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ ) set out and came to the meeting of the Ansar and asked them to bear witness before hadrat Umar رضی اللہ عنہ about this. They (the Companions present there) said: None but the youngest amongst us would bear out this fact. So Abu Sa'id Khudri رضی اللہ عنہ (who was the youngest one in that company) said: We have been commanded to do so (while visiting the house of other people). Thereupon 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: This command of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) had remained hidden from me up till now due to (my) business in the market.

He went to 'Umar bin Khattab رضی اللہ عنہ and greeted him by saying: As-Salamu-'Alaikum, here is 'Abdullah bin Qais, but he did not permit him (to get in). He (Abu Musa Ash'ari رضی اللہ عنہ) again greeted him with as-Salamu-'Alaikum and said: Here is Abu Musa, but he (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) did not permit him (to get in). He again said: As-Salam-u-'Alaikum, (and said) here is Ash'ari, (then receiving no response he came back). He (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) said: Bring him back to me, bring him back to me So he went there (in the presence of Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) and he said to him: Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ , what made you go back, while we were busy in some work? He said: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: Permission should be sought thrice. And if you are permitted, (then get in), otherwise go back. He said: Bring witness to this fact, otherwise I shall do this and that, i.e. I shall punish you. Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ went away and 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said to him (on his departure): It he (Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ ) finds a witness he should meet him by the side of the pulpit in the evening and it he does not find a witness you would not find him there. When it was evening he (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) found him (Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ ) there. He (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) said: Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ , have you been able to find a witness to what you have said? He said: Yes. Here is Ubayy bin Ka'b رضی اللہ عنہ , whereupon he (Hadrat 'Umar) said: Yes, he is an authentic (witness). He (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) said: Abu Tufail (the kunya of Ubayy bin Ka'b رضی اللہ عنہ ), what does he (Abu Musa say? Thereupon he said: Ibn Khattab رضی اللہ عنہ , I heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as saying so. Do not prove to be a hard (task-master) for the Companions of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌), whereupon he Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: Hallowed be Allah. I had heard something (in this connection), but I wished it to be established (as an undeniable fact).

و حَدَّثَنَاه عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبَانَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا الْمُنْذِرِ آنْتَ سَمِعْتَ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَلَا تَكُنْ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ عَذَابًا عَلَى أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ مِنْ قَوْلِ عُمَرَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَمَا بَعْدَهُ.

Abu Mundhir (the Kunya of Ubayy bin Ka'b رضی اللہ عنہ ), did you hear this from Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ )? Thereupon he said: Yes. and he further said: Ibn Khattab, do not be a torment for the Companions of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). No mention has, however, been made of the words of 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ : Hallowed be Allah and what follows subsequently.

— This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Talha bin Yahya with the same chain of transmitters but with this variation of wording: He (Hadrat 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ ) said

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَدَعَوْتُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ هَذَا قُلْتُ أَنَا قَالَ فَخَرَجَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ أَنَا أَنَا.

I came to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) and called him (with a view to seeking permission). whereupon Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: Who is it? I said: It is I. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) came out saying: It is I. it is I.
