Narrated Abu Dhar: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "While I was at Mecca the roof of my house was opened and Gabriel descended,opened my chest, and washed it with Zamzam water. Then he brought a golden tray full of wisdomand faith and having poured its contents into my chest, he closed it. Then he took my hand andascended with me to the nearest heaven, when I reached the nearest heaven, Gabriel said to thegatekeeper of the heaven, 'Open (the gate).' The gatekeeper asked, 'Who is it?' Gabriel answered:'Gabriel.' He asked, 'Is there anyone with you?' Gabriel replied, 'Yes, Muhammad I is with me.' Heasked, 'Has he been called?' Gabriel said, 'Yes.' So the gate was opened and we went over the nearestheaven and there we saw a man sitting with some people on his right and some on his left. When helooked towards his right, he laughed and when he looked toward his left he wept. Then he said,'Welcome! O pious Prophet and pious son.' I asked Gabriel, 'Who is he?' He replied, 'He is Adam andthe people on his right and left are the souls of his offspring. Those on his right are the people ofParadise and those on his left are the people of Hell and when he looks towards his right he laughs andwhen he looks towards his left he weeps.'Then he ascended with me till he reached the second heaven and he (Gabriel) said to its gatekeeper,'Open (the gate).' The gatekeeper said to him the same as the gatekeeper of the first heaven had saidand he opened the gate. Anas said: "Abu Dhar added that the Prophet (ﷺ) met Adam, Idris, Moses, Jesusand Abraham, he (Abu Dhar) did not mention on which heaven they were but he mentioned that he(the Prophet (ﷺ) ) met Adam on the nearest heaven and Abraham on the sixth heaven. Anas said, "WhenGabriel along with the Prophet (ﷺ) passed by Idris, the latter said, 'Welcome! O pious Prophet and piousbrother.' The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, 'Who is he?' Gabriel replied, 'He is Idris." The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "I passedby Moses and he said, 'Welcome! O pious Prophet and pious brother.' I asked Gabriel, 'Who is he?'Gabriel replied, 'He is Moses.' Then I passed by Jesus and he said, 'Welcome! O pious brother andpious Prophet.' I asked, 'Who is he?' Gabriel replied, 'He is Jesus.Then I passed by Abraham and he said, 'Welcome! O pious Prophet and pious son.' I asked Gabriel,'Who is he?' Gabriel replied, 'He is Abraham. The Prophet (ﷺ) added, 'Then Gabriel ascended with me to aplace where I heard the creaking of the pens." Ibn Hazm and Anas bin Malik said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said,"Then Allah enjoined fifty prayers on my followers when I returned with this order of Allah, I passedby Moses who asked me, 'What has Allah enjoined on your followers?' I replied, 'He has enjoinedfifty prayers on them.' Moses said, 'Go back to your Lord (and appeal for reduction) for your followerswill not be able to bear it.' (So I went back to Allah and requested for reduction) and He reduced it tohalf. When I passed by Moses again and informed him about it, he said, 'Go back to your Lord as yourfollowers will not be able to bear it.' So I returned to Allah and requested for further reduction andhalf of it was reduced. I again passed by Moses and he said to me: 'Return to your Lord, for yourfollowers will not be able to bear it. So I returned to Allah and He said, 'These are five prayers andthey are all (equal to) fifty (in reward) for My Word does not change.' I returned to Moses and he toldme to go back once again. I replied, 'Now I feel shy of asking my Lord again.' Then Gabriel took metill we '' reached Sidrat-il-Muntaha (Lote tree of; the utmost boundary) which was shrouded in colors,indescribable. Then I was admitted into Paradise where I found small (tents or) walls (made) of pearlsand its earth was of musk."

He said, "I traveled with the Prophet (ﷺ)during some of his journeys, and I came to him at night for some purpose and I found him praying. Atthat time, I was wearing a single garment with which I covered my shoulders and prayed by his side.When he finished the prayer, he asked, 'O Jabir! What has brought you here?' I told him what Iwanted. When I finished, he asked, 'O Jabir! What is this garment which I have seen and with whichyou covered your shoulders?' I replied, 'It is a (tight) garment.' He said, 'If the garment is largeenough, wrap it round the body (covering the shoulders) and if it is tight (too short) then use it as anIzar (tie it around your waist only.)' "

Whenever we approach near a(hostile) nation (to fight) then evil will be the morning of those who have been warned.' He repeatedthis thrice. The people came out for their jobs and some of them said, 'Muhammad (has come).' (Someof our companions added, "With his army.") We conquered Khaibar, took the captives, and the bootywas collected. Dihya came and said, 'O Allah's Prophet! Give me a slave girl from the captives.' TheProphet said, 'Go and take any slave girl.' He took Safiya bint Huyai. A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) andsaid, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)s! You gave Safiya bint Huyai to Dihya and she is the chief mistress of thetribes of Quraidha and An-Nadir and she befits none but you.' So the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Bring him alongwith her.' So Dihya came with her and when the Prophet (ﷺ) saw her, he said to Dihya, 'Take any slavegirl other than her from the captives.' Anas added: The Prophet (ﷺ) then manumitted her and married her."Thabit asked Anas, "O Abu Hamza! What did the Prophet (ﷺ) pay her (as Mahr)?" He said, "Her self washer Mahr for he manumitted her and then married her." Anas added, "While on the way, Um Sulaimdressed her for marriage (ceremony) and at night she sent her as a bride to the Prophet (ﷺ) . So theProphet was a bridegroom and he said, 'Whoever has anything (food) should bring it.' He spread out aleather sheet (for the food) and some brought dates and others cooking butter.

Has there beenany change in the prayers?" He said, "What is it?' The people said, "You have prayed so much and somuch." So the Prophet (ﷺ) bent his legs, faced the Qibla and performed two prostration's (of Sahu) andfinished his prayers with Taslim (by turning his face to right and left saying: 'As-Salamu `Alaikum-Warahmat-ullah'). When he turned his face to us he said, "If there had been anything changed in theprayer, surely I would have informed you but I am a human being like you and liable to forget likeyou. So if I forget remind me and if anyone of you is doubtful about his prayer, he should follow whathe thinks to be correct and complete his prayer accordingly and finish it and do two prostrations (ofSahu).

Narrated `Umar (bin Al-Khattab): My Lord agreed with me in three things:-1. I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), I wish we took the station of Abraham as our praying place (for some ofour prayers). So came the Divine Inspiration: And take you (people) the station of Abraham as a placeof prayer (for some of your prayers e.g. two rak`at of Tawaf of Ka`ba)". (2.125)-2. And as regards the (verse of) the veiling of the women, I said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I wish youordered your wives to cover themselves from the men because good and bad ones talk to them.' So theverse of the veiling of the women was revealed.-3. Once the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) made a united front against the Prophet (ﷺ) and I said to them, 'It maybe if he (the Prophet) divorced you, (all) that his Lord (Allah) will give him instead of you wivesbetter than you.'

When it rains the water flows in the valley between me and my people so I cannotgo to their mosque to lead them in prayer. O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I wish you would come to my house andpray in it so that I could take that place as a Musalla. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said. "Allah willing, I will doso." Next day after the sun rose high, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr came and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) askedfor permission to enter. I gave him permission and he did not sit on entering the house but said to me,"Where do you like me to pray?" I pointed to a place in my house. So Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stood there andsaid, 'Allahu Akbar', and we all got up and aligned behind him and offered a two-rak`at prayer andended it with Taslim. We requested him to stay for a meal called "Khazira" which we had prepared forhim. Many members of our family gathered in the house and one of them said, "Where is Malik binAl-Dukhaishin or Ibn Al-Dukhshun?" One of them replied, "He is a hypocrite and does not love Allahand His Apostle." Hearing that, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Do not say so. Haven't you seen that he said,'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah' for Allah's sake only?" He said, "Allah and HisApostle know better. We have seen him helping and advising hypocrites."Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Allah has forbidden the (Hell) fire for those who say, 'None has the right to beworshipped but Allah' for Allah's sake only."

Later on he ordered that a mosque should be built and sent for some people ofBanu-An-Najjar and said, "O Banu An-Najjar! Suggest to me the price of this (walled) piece of landof yours." They replied, "No! By Allah! We do not demand its price except from Allah." Anas added:There were graves of pagans in it and some of it was unleveled and there were some date-palm treesin it. The Prophet (ﷺ) ordered that the graves of the pagans be dug out and the unleveled land be level ledand the date-palm trees be cut down . (So all that was done). They aligned these cut date-palm treestowards the Qibla of the mosque (as a wall) and they also built two stone side-walls (of the mosque).His companions brought the stones while reciting some poetic verses.

The Prophet (ﷺ)added: Abu- Bakr has favored me much with his property and company. If I were to take a Khalilfrom mankind I would certainly have taken Abu Bakr but the Islamic brotherhood and friendship issufficient. Close all the gates in the mosque except that of Abu Bakr.

Narrates Ibn Seereen: Abu Huraira said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) led us in one of the two `Isha' prayers (Abu Huraira named thatprayer but I forgot it)." Abu Huraira added, "He prayed two rak`at and then finished the prayer withTaslim. He stood up near a piece of wood Lying across the mosque and leaned on it in such a way asif he was angry. Then he put his right hand over the left and clasped his hands by interlacing hisfingers and then put his J right cheek on the back of his left hand. The people who were in haste leftthe mosque through its gates. They wondered whether the prayer was reduced. And amongst themwere Abu Bakr and `Umar but they hesitated to ask the Prophet. A long-handed man called Dhul-Yadain asked the Prophet, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Have you forgotten or has the prayer been reduced?'The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, 'I have neither forgotten nor has the prayer been reduced' The Prophet (ﷺ) added, 'Iswhat Dhul Yadain has said true?' They (the people) said, 'Yes, it is true.' The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up againand led the prayer, completing the remaining prayer, forgotten by him, and performed Taslim, andthen said, 'Allahu Akbar.' And then he did a prostration as he used to prostrate or longer than that. Hethen raised his head saying, 'Allahu Akbar; he then again said, 'Allahu Akbar', and prostrated as heused to prostrate or longer than that. Then he raised his head and said, 'Allahu Akbar.' " (The subnarratoradded, "I think that they asked (Ibn Seereen) whether the Prophet (ﷺ) completed the prayer withTaslim. He replied, "I heard that `Imran bin Husain had said, 'Then he (the Prophet) did Taslim.")

Narrated `Amr bin Maimun [??]: `Abdullah bin Mas`ud said, "While Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was praying beside the Ka`ba, there were someQuraish people sitting in a gathering. One of them said, 'Don't you see this (who does deeds just toshow off)? Who amongst you can go and bring the dung, blood and the Abdominal contents(intestines, etc.) of the slaughtered camels of the family of so and so and then wait till he prostratesand put that in between his shoulders?' The most unfortunate amongst them (`Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait)went (and brought them) and when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) prostrated, he put them between his shoulders. TheProphet remained in prostration and they laughed so much so that they fell on each other. A passerbywent to Fatima, who was a young girl in those days. She came running and the Prophet (ﷺ) was still inprostration. She removed them and cursed upon the Quraish on their faces. When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)completed his prayer, he said, 'O Allah! Take revenge on Quraish.' He said so thrice and added, 'OAllah! take revenge on `Amr bin Hisham, `Utba bin Rabi`a, Shaiba bin Rabi`a, Al-Walid bin `Utba,Umaiya bin Khalaf, `Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait and `Umar a bin Al-Walid." `Abdullah added, "By Allah! Isaw all of them dead in the battle field on the day of Badr and they were dragged and thrown in theQalib (a well) at Badr: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then said, 'Allah's curse has descended upon the people of theQalib (well).

Did Gabriel lead Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) at the stated times of the prayers?" `Urwa replied, "Bashir bin Abi Mas`ud narrated like this on the authority of his father." `Urwa added, "Aisha told me that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to pray `Asr prayer when the sunshine was still inside her residence (during the early time of `Asr)
