أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دِينَارًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا دِرْهَمًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا عَبْدًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا أَمَةً إِلَّا بَغْلَتَهُ الشَّهْبَاءَ الَّتِي كَانَ يَرْكَبُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسِلَاحَهُ وَأَرْضًا جَعَلَهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ قُتَيْبَةُ:‏‏‏‏ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى صَدَقَةً.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not leave behind a Dinar nor a Dirham, or any slave, male or female; except his white mule which he used to ride, his weapon and some land which he left to be used for the cause of Allah. (One of the narrators) Qutaibah said on one occasion: In charity.

It was narrated that 'Amr bin Al-Harith رضی الله عنہ said

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِسْحَاق، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْحَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ مَا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا بَغْلَتَهُ الْبَيْضَاءَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسِلَاحَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَرْضًا تَرَكَهَا صَدَقَةً .

I heard 'Amr bin Al-Harith say: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not leave behind anything except his white mule, his weapon and some land which he left as a charity.'

Abu Ishaq narrated

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاق، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْحَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا تَرَكَ إِلَّا بَغْلَتَهُ الشَّهْبَاءَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسِلَاحَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَرْضًا تَرَكَهَا صَدَقَةً .

I heard 'Amr bin Al-Harith say: 'I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he left nothing behind except his white mule, his weapon and some land which he left as a charity.'

Yunus bin Abi Ishaq narrated that his father said

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الْحَفَرِيُّ عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَصَبْتُ أَرْضًا مِنْ أَرْضِ خَيْبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْتُ أَصَبْتُ أَرْضًا لَمْ أُصِبْ مَالًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ وَلَا أَنْفَسَ عِنْدِي مِنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ شِئْتَ تَصَدَّقْتَ بِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا عَلَى أَنْ لَا تُبَاعَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا تُوهَبَ فِي الْفُقَرَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَذِي الْقُرْبَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالرِّقَابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالضَّيْفِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا جُنَاحَ عَلَى مَنْ وَلِيَهَا أَنْ يَأْكُلَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ غَيْرَ مُتَمَوِّلٍ مَالًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيُطْعِمَ ،

I was allocated some land of Khaibar. I came to the Messenger of Allah and said: 'I have acquired some land and I have never acquired any wealth that is dearer to me or more precious than it.' He said: 'If you wish, you can give it in charity.' So he gave it in charity on condition that it would not be bought or given away, for the poor, relatives, slaves, guests and wayfarers. And there is no sin on the administrator if he eats from it or feeds others on a reasonable basis, with no intention of becoming wealthy from it.

It was narrated from Sufyan Ath-Thawri, from Ibn 'Awn, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar , from 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ, that he said

أَخْبَرَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق الْفَزَارِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ نَحْوَهُ.

A similar report was narrated from Abu Ishaq Al-Fazari, from (Ayyub) bin 'Awn, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہما , from 'Umar رضی الله عنہ, from the Prophet ﷺ.

أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَصَابَ عُمَرُ أَرْضًا بِخَيْبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَصَبْتُ أَرْضًا لَمْ أُصِبْ مَالًا قَطُّ أَنْفَسَ عِنْدِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَيْفَ تَأْمُرُ بِهِ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ شِئْتَ حَبَّسْتَ أَصْلَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَتَصَدَّقْتَ بِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا عَلَى أَنْ لَا تُبَاعَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا تُوهَبَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا تُورَثَ فِي الْفُقَرَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالْقُرْبَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالرِّقَابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالضَّيْفِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا جُنَاحَ عَلَى مَنْ وَلِيَهَا أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مِنْهَا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيُطْعِمَ صَدِيقًا غَيْرَ مُتَمَوِّلٍ فِيهِ .

Ibn 'Awn narrated to us, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar رضی الله عنہما , from 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ, who said: 'I acquired some land at Khaibar. He came to the Prophet and said: I have acquired some land at Khaibar, and I have never been given any wealth that is more precious to me than it. What do you command me to do with it? He said: If you wish, you can 'freeze' it and give it in charity. So he gave it in charity on condition that it would not be sold, given away or inherited, to the poor, relatives, slaves, for the cause of Allah, guests and wayfarers. There is no sin on the one who administers it if he eats from it on a reasonable basis and feeds his friend, with no intention of becoming wealthy from it.'

It was narrated that Yazid -Ibn Ruzaiq- said

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَأَنْبَأَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَصَابَ عُمَرُ أَرْضًا بِخَيْبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاسْتَأْمَرَهُ فِيهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ أَرْضًا كَثِيرًا لَمْ أُصِبْ مَالًا قَطُّ أَنْفَسَ عِنْدِي مِنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَمَا تَأْمُرُ فِيهَا ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ شِئْتَ حَبَّسْتَ أَصْلَهَا وَتَصَدَّقْتَ بِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا عَلَى أَنَّهُ لَا تُبَاعُ وَلَا تُوهَبُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا فِي الْفُقَرَاءِ وَالْقُرْبَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَفِي الرِّقَابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالضَّيْفِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا جُنَاحَ يَعْنِي عَلَى مَنْ وَلِيَهَا أَنْ يَأْكُلَ أَوْ يُطْعِمَ صَدِيقًا غَيْرَ مُتَمَوِّلٍ ،‏‏‏‏ اللَّفْظُ لِإِسْمَاعِيلَ.

Umar رضی اللہ عنہ acquired some land at Khaibar. He came to the Prophet and consulted him about it. He said: 'I have acquired a great deal of land, and I have never acquired any wealth that is more precious to me than it. What do you command me to do with it?' He said: 'If you wish, you may freeze it and give it in charity.' So he gave it in charity on condition that it would not be sold or given away, and he gave it in charity to the poor, relatives, to emancipate slaves, for the cause of Allah, for wayfarers and guests. There is no sin -on the administrator- if he eats (from it) or feeds a friend, with no intention of becoming wealthy from it.' These are the wordings of Isma'il.

It was narrated from Bishr, from Ibn 'Awn, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar رضی الله عنہما who said

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ السَّمَّانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ عُمَرَ أَصَابَ أَرْضًا بِخَيْبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتَأْمِرُهُ فِي ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ شِئْتَ حَبَّسْتَ أَصْلَهَا وَتَصَدَّقْتَ بِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَحَبَّسَ أَصْلَهَا أَنْ لَا تُبَاعَ وَلَا تُوهَبَ وَلَا تُورَثَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا عَلَى الْفُقَرَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالْقُرْبَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالرِّقَابِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَفِي الْمَسَاكِينِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالضَّيْفِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا جُنَاحَ عَلَى مَنْ وَلِيَهَا أَنْ يَأْكُلَ مِنْهَا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ أَوْ يُطْعِمَ صَدِيقَهُ غَيْرَ مُتَمَوِّلٍ فِيهِ .

'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ acquired some land at Khaibar. He came to the Prophet and consulted him about that. He said: If you wish, you may 'freeze' it and give it in charity. So he 'froze' it, stipulating that it should not be sold, given as a gift or inherited, and he gave it in charity to the poor, relatives, slaves, the needy, wayfarers and guests. There is no sin on the administrator if he eats from it on a reasonable basis or feeds a friend with no intention of becoming wealthy from it.

It was narrated from Azhar As-Samman, from Ibn 'Awn, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar رضی الله عنہما , that

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَنَسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ:‏‏‏‏ لَنْ تَنَالُوا الْبِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ [سورة آل عمران آية 92]، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ رَبَّنَا لَيَسْأَلُنَا عَنْ أَمْوَالِنَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأُشْهِدُكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنِّي قَدْ جَعَلْتُ أَرْضِي لِلَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ اجْعَلْهَا فِي قَرَابَتِكَ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فِي حَسَّانَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ،‏‏‏‏ وَأُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ.

When this Verse was revealed -'By no means shall you attain Al Birr (piety, righteousness--here it means Allah's reward, i.e. Paradise), unless you spend (in Allah's cause) of that which you love'- Abu Talha said: 'Our Lord will ask us about our wealth. I adjure you, O Messenger of Allah! I am giving my land to Allah.' The Messenger of Allah said: 'Make it for your relatives, Hassan bin Thabit and Ubayy bin Ka'b.'

It was narrated that Anas رضی الله عنہ said

أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ عُمَرُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ الْمِائَةَ سَهْمٍ الَّتِي لِي بِخَيْبَرَ لَمْ أُصِبْ مَالًا قَطُّ أَعْجَبَ إِلَيَّ مِنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَدْ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ احْبِسْ أَصْلَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسَبِّلْ ثَمَرَتَهَا .

Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said to the Prophet ﷺ: 'The one hundred shares that I acquired in Khaibar -I have never acquired any wealth that I like more than that, and I want to give it in charity.' The Prophet said: Freeze it and donate its fruits.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْخَلَنْجِيُّ بِبَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ جَاءَ عُمَرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنِّي أَصَبْتُ مَالًا لَمْ أُصِبْ مِثْلَهُ قَطُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏كَانَ لِي مِائَةُ رَأْسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاشْتَرَيْتُ بِهَا مِائَةَ سَهْمٍ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنِّي قَدْ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَتَقَرَّبَ بِهَا إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَاحْبِسْ أَصْلَهَا وَسَبِّلِ الثَّمَرَةَ .

Umar رضی اللہ عنہ came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have acquired some wealth the like of which I have never acquired before. I had one hundred head (of livestock) with which I bought one hundred shares of Khaibar from its people. I wanted to draw closer to Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, by means of it.' He said: 'Freeze it and donate its fruits.'

It was narrated that 'Umar رضی الله عنہما , said

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُصَفَّى بْنِ بَهْلُولٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ الْمَكِّيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَرْضٍ لِي بِثَمْغٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ احْبِسْ أَصْلَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسَبِّلْ ثَمَرَتَهَا .

I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about some land of mine in Thamgh. He said: 'Freeze it and donate its fruits.'

I came to Al-Madinah, and I was performing Hajj, and while we were in our camping place unloading our mounts, someone came to us and said: 'The people have gathered in the Masjid.' I looked and found the people gathered, and in the midst of them was a group; there I saw 'Ali bin Abi Talib, Az-Zubair, Talhah and Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas رضی اللہ عنہم, may Allah have mercy on them. When I got there, it was said that 'Uthman bin 'Affan had come. He came, wearing a yellowish cloak. I said to my companion: Stay where you are until I find out what is happening. 'Uthman said: Is 'Ali here? Is Az-Zubair here? Is Talhah here? Is Sa'd here? They said: Yes. He said: I adjure you by Allah, beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, are you aware that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whoever buys the Mirbad of Banu so and so, Allah will forgive him, and I bought it, then I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him, and he said: Add it to our Masjid and the reward for it will be yours? They said: Yes. He said: I adjure you by Allah, beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, are you aware that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whoever buys the well of Rumah, Allah will forgive him, so I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: I have bought the well of Rumah. He said: Give it to provide water for the Muslims, and the reward for it will be yours? They said: Yes. He said: 'I adjure you by Allah, beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, are you aware that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whoever equips the army of Al-'Usrah (i.e. Tabuk), Allah will forgive him, so I equipped them until they were not lacking even a rope or a bridle?' They said: Yes. He said: O Allah, bear witness, O Allah, bear witness, O Allah, bear witness.

We set out for Hajj, and came to Al-Madinah intending to perform Hajj. While we were in our camping place unloading our mounts, someone came to us and said: 'The people have gathered in the Masjid and there is panic.' So we set out and found the people gathered around a group in the middle of the Masjid, among whom were 'Ali, Az-Zubair, Talhah and Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas رضی اللہ عنہم. While we were like that, 'Uthman came, wearing a yellowish cloak with which he had covered his head. He said: Is 'Ali here? Is Talhah here? Is Az-Zubair here? Is Sa'd here? They said: Yes.

I was present at the house when 'Uthman رضی اللہ عنہ looked out over them and said: 'I adjure you by Allah and by Islam, are you aware that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Al-Madinah, and it had no water that was considered sweet (suitable for drinking) except the well of Rumah, he said: Who will buy the well of Rumah and dip his bucket in it alongside the buckets of the Muslims, in return for a better one in Paradise? and I bought it with my capital and dipped my bucket into it alongside the buckets of the Muslims? Yet today you are preventing me from drinking from it, so that I have to drink salty water.' They said: 'By Allah, yes.'

'Uthman رضی اللہ عنہ looked out over them when they besieged him and said: By Allah, I adjure a man who heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, on the day when the mountain shook with him, and he kicked it with his foot and said: 'Be still, for there is no one upon you but a Prophet ﷺ or a Siddiq or two martyrs,' and I was with him. Some men responded and affirmed that. Then he said: By Allah, I adjure a man who witnessed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, on the day of Bai'at Al-Ridwan, say: 'This is the Hand of Allah and this is the hand of 'Uthman.' Some men responded and affirmed that. He said: By Allah, I adjure a man who heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, on the day of the army of Al-'Usrah (i.e. Tabuk): 'Who will spend and it will be accepted?' And I equipped half of the army from my own wealth. Some men responded and affirmed that. Then he said: By Allah, I adjure a man who heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Who will add to this Masjid in return for a house in Paradise,' and I bought it with my own wealth. Some men responded and affirmed that. Then he said: By Allah, I adjure a man who witness Rumah being sold, and I bought it from my own wealth and allowed wayfarers to use it. Some men responded and affirmed that.
