حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَوْفٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمِنْهَالِ، قَالَ لَمَّا كَانَ ابْنُ زِيَادٍ وَمَرْوَانُ بِالشَّأْمِ، وَوَثَبَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ بِمَكَّةَ، وَوَثَبَ الْقُرَّاءُ بِالْبَصْرَةِ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَ أَبِي إِلَى أَبِي بَرْزَةَ الأَسْلَمِيِّ حَتَّى دَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِي دَارِهِ وَهْوَ جَالِسٌ فِي ظِلِّ عُلِّيَّةٍ لَهُ مِنْ قَصَبٍ، فَجَلَسْنَا إِلَيْهِ فَأَنْشَأَ أَبِي يَسْتَطْعِمُهُ الْحَدِيثَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَرْزَةَ أَلاَ تَرَى مَا وَقَعَ فِيهِ النَّاسُ فَأَوَّلُ شَىْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ إِنِّي احْتَسَبْتُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَنِّي أَصْبَحْتُ سَاخِطًا عَلَى أَحْيَاءِ قُرَيْشٍ، إِنَّكُمْ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْعَرَبِ كُنْتُمْ عَلَى الْحَالِ الَّذِي عَلِمْتُمْ مِنَ الذِّلَّةِ وَالْقِلَّةِ وَالضَّلاَلَةِ، وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ أَنْقَذَكُمْ بِالإِسْلاَمِ وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَتَّى بَلَغَ بِكُمْ مَا تَرَوْنَ، وَهَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا الَّتِي أَفْسَدَتْ بَيْنَكُمْ، إِنَّ ذَاكَ الَّذِي بِالشَّأْمِ وَاللَّهِ إِنْ يُقَاتِلُ إِلاَّ عَلَى الدُّنْيَا.
When Ibn Ziyad and Marwan were in Sham and Ibn Az-Zubair took over the authority in Mecca and
Qurra' (the Kharijites) revolted in Basra, I went out with my father to Abu Barza Al-Aslami till we
entered upon him in his house while he was sitting in the shade of a room built of cane. So we sat with
him and my father started talking to him saying, "O Abu Barza! Don't you see in what dilemma the
people has fallen?" The first thing heard him saying "I seek reward from Allah for myself because of
being angry and scornful at the Quraish tribe. O you Arabs! You know very well that you were in
misery and were few in number and misguided, and that Allah has brought you out of all that with
Islam and with Muhammad till He brought you to this state (of prosperity and happiness) which you
see now; and it is this worldly wealth and pleasures which has caused mischief to appear among you.
The one who is in Sham (i.e., Marwan), by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain:
and those who are among you, by Allah, are not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain; and that
one who is in Mecca (i.e., Ibn Az-Zubair) by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of worldly
gain."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ
" لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تَقْتَتِلَ فِئَتَانِ عَظِيمَتَانِ، يَكُونُ بَيْنَهُمَا مَقْتَلَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ، دَعْوَتُهُمَا وَاحِدَةٌ، وَحَتَّى يُبْعَثَ دَجَّالُونَ كَذَّابُونَ، قَرِيبٌ مِنْ ثَلاَثِينَ، كُلُّهُمْ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، وَحَتَّى يُقْبَضَ الْعِلْمُ، وَتَكْثُرَ الزَّلاَزِلُ، وَيَتَقَارَبَ الزَّمَانُ، وَتَظْهَرَ الْفِتَنُ، وَيَكْثُرَ الْهَرْجُ وَهْوَ الْقَتْلُ، وَحَتَّى يَكْثُرَ فِيكُمُ الْمَالُ فَيَفِيضَ، حَتَّى يُهِمَّ رَبَّ الْمَالِ مَنْ يَقْبَلُ صَدَقَتَهُ، وَحَتَّى يَعْرِضَهُ فَيَقُولَ الَّذِي يَعْرِضُهُ عَلَيْهِ لاَ أَرَبَ لِي بِهِ. وَحَتَّى يَتَطَاوَلَ النَّاسُ فِي الْبُنْيَانِ، وَحَتَّى يَمُرَّ الرَّجُلُ بِقَبْرِ الرَّجُلِ فَيَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي مَكَانَهُ. وَحَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا، فَإِذَا طَلَعَتْ وَرَآهَا النَّاسُ ـ يَعْنِي ـ آمَنُوا أَجْمَعُونَ، فَذَلِكَ حِينَ لاَ يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ آمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ، أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمَانِهَا خَيْرًا، وَلَتَقُومَنَّ السَّاعَةُ وَقَدْ نَشَرَ الرَّجُلاَنِ ثَوْبَهُمَا بَيْنَهُمَا، فَلاَ يَتَبَايَعَانِهِ وَلاَ يَطْوِيَانِهِ، وَلَتَقُومَنَّ السَّاعَةُ وَقَدِ انْصَرَفَ الرَّجُلُ بِلَبَنِ لِقْحَتِهِ فَلاَ يَطْعَمُهُ، وَلَتَقُومَنَّ السَّاعَةُ وَهْوَ يُلِيطُ حَوْضَهُ فَلاَ يَسْقِي فِيهِ، وَلَتَقُومَنَّ السَّاعَةُ وَقَدْ رَفَعَ أُكْلَتَهُ إِلَى فِيهِ فَلاَ يَطْعَمُهَا ".
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The Hour will not be established (1) till two big groups fight each other
whereupon there will be a great number of casualties on both sides and they will be following one and
the same religious doctrine, (2) till about thirty Dajjals (liars) appear, and each one of them will claim
that he is Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), (3) till the religious knowledge is taken away (by the death of Religious
scholars) (4) earthquakes will increase in number (5) time will pass quickly, (6) afflictions will
appear, (7) Al-Harj, (i.e., killing) will increase, (8) till wealth will be in abundance ---- so abundant
that a wealthy person will worry lest nobody should accept his Zakat, and whenever he will present it
to someone, that person (to whom it will be offered) will say, 'I am not in need of it, (9) till the people
compete with one another in constructing high buildings, (10) till a man when passing by a grave of
someone will say, 'Would that I were in his place (11) and till the sun rises from the West. So when
the sun will rise and the people will see it (rising from the West) they will all believe (embrace Islam)
but that will be the time when: (As Allah said,) 'No good will it do to a soul to believe then, if it
believed not before, nor earned good (by deeds of righteousness) through its Faith.' (6.158) And the
Hour will be established while two men spreading a garment in front of them but they will not be able
to sell it, nor fold it up; and the Hour will be established when a man has milked his she-camel and has
taken away the milk but he will not be able to drink it; and the Hour will be established before a man
repairing a tank (for his livestock) is able to water (his animals) in it; and the Hour will be established
when a person has raised a morsel (of food) to his mouth but will not be able to eat it."

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Do not wish to be like anyone, except in two cases: (1) A man whom Allah has
given wealth and he spends it righteously. (2) A man whom Allah has given wisdom (knowledge of
the Qur'an and the Hadith) and he acts according to it and teaches it to others."

حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" لاَ تَحَاسُدَ إِلاَّ فِي اثْنَتَيْنِ رَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَهْوَ يَتْلُوهُ آنَاءَ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ يَقُولُ لَوْ أُوتِيتُ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ هَذَا لَفَعَلْتُ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ، وَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ مَالاً يُنْفِقُهُ فِي حَقِّهِ فَيَقُولُ لَوْ أُوتِيتُ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ لَفَعَلْتُ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ ".
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، بِهَذَا.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Not to wish to be the like except of two men. A man whom Allah has given the
(knowledge of the) Qur'an and he recites it during the hours of night and day and the one who wishes
says: If I were given the same as this (man) has been given, I would do what he does, and a man
whom Allah has given wealth and he spends it in the just and right way, in which case the one who
wishes says, 'If I were given the same as he has been given, I would do what he does.' " (See Hadith 5025 and 5026)

Narrated Abu Huraira:When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) died and Abu Bakr was elected as a Caliph after him, some of the Arabs reverted to disbelief, `Umar said to Abu Bakr, "How dare you fight the people while Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, I have been ordered to fight the people till they say 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah' And whoever says: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' waves his wealth and his life from me unless he deserves a legal punishment lusty, and his account will be with Allah! Abu Bakr said, "By Allah, I will fight him who discriminates between Zakat and prayers, for Zakat is the Compulsory right to be taken from the wealth By Allah, if they refuse to give me even a tying rope which they use to give to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), I would fight them for withholding it." `Umar said, 'By Allah, It was nothing, except I saw that Allah had opened the chest of Abu Bakr to the fight, and I came to know for certain that was the truth

" لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهْوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، اللَّهُمَّ لاَ مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ، وَلاَ مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ، وَلاَ يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ ". وَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ إِنَّهُ كَانَ يَنْهَى عَنْ قِيلَ وَقَالَ، وَكَثْرَةِ السُّؤَالِ، وَإِضَاعَةِ الْمَالِ، وَكَانَ يَنْهَى عَنْ عُقُوقِ الأُمَّهَاتِ وَوَأْدِ الْبَنَاتِ وَمَنْعٍ وَهَاتِ.
(The clerk of Al-Mughira) Muawiya wrote to Al-Mughira 'Write to me what you have heard from
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ).' So he (Al-Mughira) wrote to him: Allah's Prophet used to say at the end of each
prayer: "La ilaha illalla-h wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul Mulku, wa lahul Hamdu wa hula ala kulli
shai'in qadir. 'Allahumma la mani' a lima a'taita, wala mu'tiya lima mana'ta, wala yanfa'u dhuljadd
minkal-jadd." He also wrote to him that the Prophet (ﷺ) used to forbid (1) Qil and Qal (idle useless talk or
that you talk too much about others), (2) Asking too many questions (in disputed Religious matters);
(3) And wasting one's wealth by extravagance; (4) and to be undutiful to one's mother (5) and to bury
the daughters alive (6) and to prevent your favors (benevolence to others (i.e. not to pay the rights of
others (7) And asking others for something (except when it is unavoidable).

I proceeded till I entered upon `Umar (and while I was sitting there), his gate-keeper Yarfa came to
him and said, " `Uthman, `Abdur-Rahman, Az-Zubair and Sa`d ask your permission to come in."
`Umar allowed them. So they entered, greeted, and sat down. (After a while the gatekeeper came) and
said, "Shall I admit `Ali and `Abbas?'' `Umar allowed them to enter. Al-`Abbas said "O Chief of the
believers! Judge between me and the oppressor (`Ali)." Then there was a dispute (regarding the
property of Bani Nadir) between them (`Abbas and `Ali). `Uthman and his companions said, "O Chief
of the Believers! Judge between them and relieve one from the other." `Umar said, "Be patient!
beseech you by Allah, with Whose permission the Heaven and the Earth Exist! Do you know that
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, 'Our property is not to be inherited, and whatever we leave is to be given in
charity,' and by this Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) meant himself?" On that the group said, "He verily said so."
`Umar then faced `Ali and `Abbas and said, "I beseech you both by Allah, do you both know that
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said so?" They both replied, "Yes". `Umar then said, "Now I am talking to you about
this matter (in detail) . Allah favored Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) with some of this wealth which He did not give
to anybody else, as Allah said: 'What Allah bestowed as Fai (Booty on His Apostle for which you
made no expedition... ' (59.6)
So that property was totally meant for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), yet he did not collect it and ignore you, nor did
he withhold it with your exclusion, but he gave it to you and distributed it among you till this much of
it was left behind, and the Prophet, used to spend of this as the yearly expenditures of his family and
then take what remained of it and spent it as he did with (other) Allah's wealth. The Prophet (ﷺ) did so
during all his lifetime, and I beseech you by Allah, do you know that?" They replied, "Yes." `Umar
then addressed `Ali and `Abbas, saying, "I beseech you both by Allah, do you know that?" Both of
them replied, "Yes." `Umar added, "Then Allah took His Apostle unto Him. Abu Bakr then said 'I am
the successor of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)' and took over all the Prophet's property and disposed of it in the
same way as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to do, and you were present then." Then he turned to `Ali and
`Abbas and said, "You both claim that Abu Bakr did so-and-so in managing the property, but Allah
knows that Abu Bakr was honest, righteous, intelligent, and a follower of what is right in managing it.
Then Allah took Abu Bakr unto Him, 'I said: I am the successor of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr.' So
I took over the property for two years and managed it in the same way as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), and Abu
Bakr used to do. Then you both (`Ali and `Abbas) came to me and asked for the same thing! (O
`Abbas! You came to me to ask me for your share from nephew's property; and this (`Ali) came to me
asking for his wives share from her father's property, and I said to you both, 'If you wish, I will place
it in your custody on condition that you both will manage it in the same way as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and
Abu Bakr did and as I have been doing since I took charge of managing it; otherwise, do not speak to
me anymore about it.'
Then you both said, 'Give it to us on that (condition).' So I gave it to you on that condition. Now I
beseech you by Allah, did I not give it to them on that condition?" The group (whom he had been
addressing) replied, "Yes." `Umar then addressed `Abbas and `Ali saying, "I beseech you both by
Allah, didn't I give you all that property on that condition?" They said, "Yes." `Umar then said, "Are
you now seeking a verdict from me other than that? By Him with Whose Permission the Heaven and
the Earth exists I will not give any verdict other than that till the Hour is established; and if you both
are unable to manage this property, then you can hand it back to me, and I will be sufficient for it on
your behalf." (See, Hadith No. 326, Vol. 4)

I fell ill, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr came to visit me on foot. The Prophet (ﷺ) came to me while I was
unconscious. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) performed ablution and poured the Remaining water of his ablution over
me whereupon I became conscious and said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! How should I spend my wealth? Or
how should I deal with my wealth?" But the Prophet (ﷺ) did not give me any reply till the Verse of the
laws of inheritance was revealed.

The Prophet (ﷺ) mentioned a man from the people of the past or those who preceded you. The Prophet (ﷺ)
said a sentence meaning: Allah had given him wealth and children. When his death approached, he
said to his sons, "What kind of father have I been to you?" They replied, "You have been a good
father." He told them that he had not presented any good deed before Allah, and if Allah should get
hold of him He would punish him.' "So look!" he added, "When I die, burn me, and when I turn into
coal, crush me, and when there comes a windy day, scatter my ashes in the wind." The Prophet (ﷺ)
added, "Then by Allah, he took a firm promise from his children to do so, and they did so. (They burnt
him after his death) and threw his ashes on a windy day. Then Allah commanded to his ashes. "Be,"
and behold! He became a man standing! Allah said, "O My slave! What made you do what you did?"
He replied, "For fear of You." Nothing saved him then but Allah's Mercy (So Allah forgave him).

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “I have been commanded to fight the people until they say, ‘There is no god but Allah.’ Whoever says, ‘There is no god but Allah,’ has protected his life and property from me, except for what is due from him, and his reckoning is with Allah.” Abu Bakr said, “By Allah, I will fight whoever differentiates between prayer and zakat, for zakat is the right of wealth. By Allah, if they withheld from me even a camel’s tether that they used to pay to the Messenger of Allah…” By God, may God bless him and grant him peace, I would have fought them to prevent him. Then Umar ibn al-Khattab said: By God, it was only when I saw that God Almighty had opened Abu Bakr’s heart to fighting that I knew it was the truth.

It is reported on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas that Mu'adh said:The Messenger of Allah sent me (as a governor of Yemen) and (at the time of departure) instructed me thus: You will soon find yourself in a community one among the people of the Book, so first call them to testify that there is no god but Allah, that I (Muhammad) am the messenger of Allah, and if they accept this, then tell them Allah has enjoined upon them five prayers during the day and the night and if they accept it, then tell them that Allah has made Zakat obligatory for them that it should be collected from the rich and distributed among the poor, and if they agree to it don't pick up (as a share of Zakat) the best of their wealths. Beware of the supplication of the oppressed for there is no barrier between him and Allah

It is narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent Mu'adh towards Yemen (as governor) he said to him:Verily you would reach a community of the people of the Book, the very first thing to which you should call them is the worship of Allah, may His Glory be Magnificent, and when they become fully aware of Allah, instruct them that He has enjoined five prayers on them during the day and the night, and when they begin observing it, then instruct them that verily Allah has made Zakat obligatory for them which would be collected from the wealthy amongst them and distributed to their needy ones, and when they submit to it, then collect it from them and avoid (the temptation) of selecting the best (items) of their riches

It is narrated on the authority of Thabit b. al-Dahhak that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) observes:None is obliged to give votive offering (of a thing) which is not in his possession and the cursing of a believer is tantamount to killing him, and he who killed himself with a thing in this world would be tormented with that (very thing) on the Day of Resurrection, and he who made a false claim to increase (his wealth), Allah would make no addition but that of paucity, and he who perjured would earn the wrath of God
