Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri narrated that a Bedouin asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about emigration. He said: "Woe to you! Emigration is very difficult. Do you have camels?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Do you pay Zakat on them?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Then do good deeds even if you live beyond the sea, for Allah will never leave any of your good deeds unrewarded."

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلاَّدٍ الْبَاهِلِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الأَوْزَاعِىُّ حَدَّثَنِى ابْنُ شِهَابٍ الزُّهْرِىُّ حَدَّثَنِى عَطَاءُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِىُّ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِى أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِىُّ أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- عَنِ الْهِجْرَةِ فَقَالَ « وَيْحَكَ إِنَّ شَأْنَ الْهِجْرَةِ لَشَدِيدٌ فَهَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ ». قَالَ نَعَمْ. قَالَ « فَهَلْ تُؤْتِى صَدَقَتَهَا ». قَالَ نَعَمْ. قَالَ « فَاعْمَلْ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْبِحَارِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَنْ يَتِرَكَ مِنْ عَمَلِكَ شَيْئًا ».

'Aishah, the wife of the Prophet (s.a.w), said: "When the believing women emigrated to join the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w), they would be tested in accordance with the words of Allah: 'O Prophet! When believing women come to you to give you the Bai' (pledge), that they will not associate anything in worship with Allah, that they will not steal, that they will not commit illegal sexual intercourse, that they will not kill their children, that they will not utter slander, intentionally forging falsehood (i.e. by making illegal children belonging to their husbands), and that they will not disobey you in Ma'ruf (Islamic Monotheism and all that which Islam ordains), then accept their Bai' (pledge), and ask Allah to forgive them. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.' 'Aishah said: "Whoever among the believing women accepted that, then she passed the test. When they accepted that verbally, the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said to them: 'Go, for I have accepted your oath of allegiance.' By Allah, the hand of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) never touched the hand of a woman; rather he accepted their oath of allegiance verbally." 'Aishah said: "By Allah, the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) never accepted the oath of allegiance from women except in the manner enjoined upon him by Allah, and the hand of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) never touched the hand of a woman. When he accepted the oath from them, he would say to them: 'I have accepted your oath of allegiance,' verbally."

حَدَّثَنِى أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَرْحٍ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِى يُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَنِى عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قَالَتْ كَانَتِ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ إِذَا هَاجَرْنَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يُمْتَحَنَّ بِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ (يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِىُّ إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ يُبَايِعْنَكَ عَلَى أَنْ لاَ يُشْرِكْنَ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا وَلاَ يَسْرِقْنَ وَلاَ يَزْنِينَ) إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ. قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَمَنْ أَقَرَّ بِهَذَا مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ فَقَدْ أَقَرَّ بِالْمِحْنَةِ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- إِذَا أَقْرَرْنَ بِذَلِكَ مِنْ قَوْلِهِنَّ قَالَ لَهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « انْطَلِقْنَ فَقَدْ بَايَعْتُكُنَّ ». وَلاَ وَاللَّهِ مَا مَسَّتْ يَدُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يَدَ امْرَأَةٍ قَطُّ. غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ يُبَايِعُهُنَّ بِالْكَلاَمِ - قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ - وَاللَّهِ مَا أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- عَلَى النِّسَاءِ قَطُّ إِلاَّ بِمَا أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى وَمَا مَسَّتْ كَفُّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- كَفَّ امْرَأَةٍ قَطُّ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَهُنَّ إِذَا أَخَذَ عَلَيْهِنَّ « قَدْ بَايَعْتُكُنَّ ». كَلاَمًا.

'Abdullah bin 'Umar said: "We swore allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) pledging to hear and obey, and he said to us: 'As much as possible.'"

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ وَقُتَيْبَةُ وَابْنُ حُجْرٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لاِبْنِ أَيُّوبَ - قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ - وَهُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ - أَخْبَرَنِى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ كُنَّا نُبَايِعُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- عَلَى السَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ يَقُولُ لَنَا « فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتَ ».

It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) inspected me on the day of (the battle of) Uhud, when I was fourteen years old, and he did not allow me to take part in the fighting. He inspected me on the day of (the battle of) Al-Khandaq, when I was fifteen years old, and he allowed me (to take part in the fighting)." Nafi' said: "I came to 'Umar bin 'Abdul-'Aziz, who was the caliph at that time, and I narrated this Hadith to him. He said: 'This is the demarcation between a minor and an adult.' He wrote to his agents telling them to pay a stipend to all those over the age of fifteen, and to regard all those under that age as children."

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِى حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ عَرَضَنِى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فِى الْقِتَالِ وَأَنَا ابْنُ أَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً فَلَمْ يُجِزْنِى وَعَرَضَنِى يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ وَأَنَا ابْنُ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً فَأَجَازَنِى. قَالَ نَافِعٌ فَقَدِمْتُ عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ وَهُوَ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَلِيفَةٌ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا لَحَدٌّ بَيْنَ الصَّغِيرِ وَالْكَبِيرِ. فَكَتَبَ إِلَى عُمَّالِهِ أَنْ يَفْرِضُوا لِمَنْ كَانَ ابْنَ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً وَمَنْ كَانَ دُونَ ذَلِكَ فَاجْعَلُوهُ فِى الْعِيَالِ.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) forbade traveling with the Qur'an to the land of the enemy, lest the enemy get hold of it.

وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ رُمْحٍ أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَنْهَى أَنْ يُسَافَرَ بِالْقُرْآنِ إِلَى أَرْضِ الْعَدُوِّ مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَنَالَهُ الْعَدُوُّ.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'Do not travel with the Qur'an, for I am afraid lest the enemy get hold of it."' Ayyub (a narrator) said: "Lest the enemy get hold of it and dispute with you concerning it."

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الْعَتَكِىُّ وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- «لاَ تُسَافِرُوا بِالْقُرْآنِ فَإِنِّى لاَ آمَنُ أَنْ يَنَالَهُ الْعَدُوُّ». قَالَ أَيُّوبُ: فَقَدْ نَالَهُ الْعَدُوُّ وَخَاصَمُوكُمْ بِهِ.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) held a race for horses that had been specially prepared for that, from Al-Haifa' to Thaniyyat Al-Wada', and he held a race for horses that had not been specially prepared from Ath-Thaniyyah to the Masjid of Banu Zuraiq, and Ibn 'Umar was one of those who participated in the race.

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى التَّمِيمِىُّ قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ. أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- سَابَقَ بِالْخَيْلِ الَّتِى قَدْ أُضْمِرَتْ مِنَ الْحَفْيَاءِ وَكَانَ أَمَدُهَا ثَنِيَّةَ الْوَدَاعِ وَسَابَقَ بَيْنَ الْخَيْلِ الَّتِى لَمْ تُضْمَرْ مِنَ الثَّنِيَّةِ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِى زُرَيْقٍ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فِيمَنْ سَابَقَ بِهَا.

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: ·Allah has guaranteed to the one who goes out (to fight) in His cause - "and he only goes out to engage in Jihad in My cause, out of faith in Me and affirming the truth of My Messengers - then I guarantee that I will either admit him to Paradise or I will bring him back to his home from which he departed, with whatever he has attained of reward or spoils of war." By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, there is no one who is wounded in the cause of Allah, but he will come on the Day of Resurrection in the state in which he was wounded, with its color the color of blood and its scent that of musk. By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, were it not that it would cause hardship to the Muslims, I would not have stayed behind from any expedition that went out to fight in the cause of Allah, but I do not have sufficient means to provide mounts for them, nor do they have sufficient means, and it would be too hard for them to stay behind without me. By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, I wish that I could fight in the cause of Allah and be killed, then fight and be killed, then fight and be killed."'

وَحَدَّثَنِى زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ عُمَارَةَ - وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْقَعْقَاعِ - عَنْ أَبِى زُرْعَةَ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « تَضَمَّنَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ خَرَجَ فِى سَبِيلِهِ لاَ يُخْرِجُهُ إِلاَّ جِهَادًا فِى سَبِيلِى وَإِيمَانًا بِى وَتَصْدِيقًا بِرُسُلِى فَهُوَ عَلَىَّ ضَامِنٌ أَنْ أُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ أَوْ أَرْجِعَهُ إِلَى مَسْكَنِهِ الَّذِى خَرَجَ مِنْهُ نَائِلاً مَا نَالَ مِنْ أَجْرٍ أَوْ غَنِيمَةٍ. وَالَّذِى نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ مَا مِنْ كَلْمٍ يُكْلَمُ فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ جَاءَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَهَيْئَتِهِ حِينَ كُلِمَ لَوْنُهُ لَوْنُ دَمٍ وَرِيحُهُ مِسْكٌ وَالَّذِى نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْلاَ أَنْ يَشُقَّ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ مَا قَعَدْتُ خِلاَفَ سَرِيَّةٍ تَغْزُو فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَبَدًا وَلَكِنْ لاَ أَجِدُ سَعَةً فَأَحْمِلَهُمْ وَلاَ يَجِدُونَ سَعَةً وَيَشُقُّ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يَتَخَلَّفُوا عَنِّى وَالَّذِى نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّى أَغْزُو فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَأُقْتَلُ ثُمَّ أَغْزُو فَأُقْتَلُ ثُمَّ أَغْزُو فَأُقْتَلُ ».

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (s.a.w) said: "Allah has given a guarantee to the one who fights in His cause and does not go out of his house except to fight in Jihad for His cause and to affirm His words, but He will either admit him to Paradise or bring him back to his home from which he departed, with whatever he has attained of reward or spoils of war."

وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحِزَامِىُّ عَنْ أَبِى الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قَالَ « تَكَفَّلَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ جَاهَدَ فِى سَبِيلِهِ لاَ يُخْرِجُهُ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ إِلاَّ جِهَادٌ فِى سَبِيلِهِ وَتَصْدِيقُ كَلِمَتِهِ - بِأَنْ يُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ أَوْ يَرْجِعَهُ إِلَى مَسْكَنِهِ الَّذِى خَرَجَ مِنْهُ مَعَ مَا نَالَ مِنْ أَجْرٍ أَوْ غَنِيمَةٍ ».

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (s.a.w) said: "No one is wounded in the cause of Allah - and Allah knows best who is wounded in His cause - but he will come on the Day of Resurrection with his wounds flowing with blood, the color will be the color of blood but the scent will be the fragrance of musk."

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ أَبِى الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قَالَ « لاَ يُكْلَمُ أَحَدٌ فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ - وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَنْ يُكْلَمُ فِى سَبِيلِهِ - إِلاَّ جَاءَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَجُرْحُهُ يَثْعَبُ اللَّوْنُ لَوْنُ دَمٍ وَالرِّيحُ رِيحُ مِسْكٍ ».
