hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it is as if he had

said to Allah's Apostle, "I wish you would buy this to wear on Fridays and also on occasions of the arrivals of the
delegations." Allah's Apostle replied, "This will be worn by a person who will have no share (reward) in the
Hereafter." Later on similar cloaks were given to Allah's Apostle and he gave one of them to 'Umar bin Al-Khattab.
On that 'Umar said, "O Allah's Apostle! You have given me this cloak although on the cloak of Atarid (a cloak
merchant who was selling that silken cloak at the gate of the mosque) you passed such and such a remark." Allah's
Apostle replied, "I have not given you this to wear". And so 'Umar bin Al-Khattab gave it to his pagan brother in
Mecca to wear.

then the Governor of Aila. Ibn Shihab wrote (to Ruzaiq) ordering him to lead the Jumua prayer and telling him that
Salim told him that 'Abdullah bin 'Umar had said, "I heard Allah's Apostle saying, 'All of you are guardians and
responsible for your wards and the things under your care. The Imam (i.e. ruler) is the guardian of his subjects and
is responsible for them and a man is the guardian of his family and is responsible for them. A woman is the
guardian of her husband's house and is responsible for it. A servant is the guardian of his master's belongings and
is responsible for them.' I thought that he also said, 'A man is the guardian of his father's property and is
responsible for it. All of you are guardians and responsible for your wards and the things under your care."

one who was much better than I (i.e. the Prophet (p.b.u.h)). No doubt, the Jumua prayer is compulsory but I dislike
to put you to task by bringing you out walking in mud and slush."

"Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah" (I testify that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle), Muawiya said, "And (so do)

opinions regarding the wood of the pulpit. They asked him about it and he said, "By Allah, I know of what wood the
pulpit was made, and no doubt I saw it on thy very first day when Allah's Apostle I took his seat on it. Allah's Apostle
sent for such and such an Ansari woman (and Sahl mentioned her name) and said to her, 'Order your
slave-carpenter to prepare for me some pieces of wood (i.e. pulpit) on which I may sit at the time of addressing the
people.' So she ordered her slave-carpenter and he made it from the tamarisk of the forest and brought it (to the
woman). The woman sent that (pulpit) to Allah's Apostle who ordered it to be placed here. Then I saw Allah's
Apostle praying on it and then bowed on it. Then he stepped back, got down and prostrated on the ground near the
foot of the pulpit and again ascended the pulpit. After finishing the prayer he faced the people and said, 'I have
done this so that you may follow me and learn the way I pray.'"

another, although the one whom I ignore is more beloved to me than the one whom I give. But I give to some people
as I feel that they have no patience and no contentment in their hearts and I leave those who are patient and

his hands and said, "O Allah! Round about us and not on us". So, in whatever direction he pointed with his hands,
the clouds dispersed and cleared away, and Medina's (sky) became clear as a hole in between the clouds. The

merchant who was selling that silken cloak at the gate of the mosque) you passed such and such a remark." Allah's

sent for such and such an Ansari woman (and Sahl mentioned her name) and said to her, 'Order your
slave-carpenter to prepare for me some pieces of wood (i.e. pulpit) on which I may sit at the time of addressing the
people.' So she ordered her slave-carpenter and he made it from the tamarisk of the forest and brought it (to the
woman). The woman sent that (pulpit) to Allah's Apostle who ordered it to be placed here. Then I saw Allah's
Apostle praying on it and then bowed on it. Then he stepped back, got down and prostrated on the ground near the
foot of the pulpit and again ascended the pulpit. After finishing the prayer he faced the people and said, 'I have
done this so that you may follow me and learn the way I pray.'"
