Narrated Abu Musa: A man embraced Islam and then reverted back to Judaism. Mu`adh bin Jabal came and saw the man
with Abu Musa. Mu`adh asked, "What is wrong with this (man)?" Abu Musa replied, "He embraced
Islam and then reverted back to Judaism." Mu`adh said, "I will not sit down unless you kill him (as it
is) the verdict of Allah and His Apostle.
Narrated `Abdur Rahman bin Abi Bakra: Abu Bakra wrote to his son who was in Sijistan: 'Do not judge between two persons when you are
angry, for I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "A judge should not judge between two persons while he is in
an angry mood."
Narrated Abu Mas`ud Al-Ansari: A man came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! By Allah, I fail to attend the morning
congregational prayer because so-and-so (i.e., Mu`adh bin Jabal) prolongs the prayer when he leads us
for it." I had never seen the Prophet (ﷺ) more furious in giving advice than he was on that day. He then
said, "O people! some of you make others dislike (good deeds, i.e. prayers etc). So whoever among
you leads the people in prayer, he should shorten it because among them there are the old, the weak
and the busy (needy having some jobs to do). (See Hadith No. 90, Vol. 1)

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: That he had divorced his wife during her menses. `Umar mentioned that to the Prophet. Allah's
Apostle became angry and said, "He must take her back (his wife) and keep her with him till she
becomes clean from her menses and then to wait till she gets her next period and becomes clean again
from it and only then, if he wants to divorce her, he may do so."
Narrated `Aisha: Hind bint `Utba bin Rabi`a came and said. "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! By Allah, there was no family on the
surface of the earth, I like to see in degradation more than I did your family, but today there is no
family on the surface of the earth whom I like to see honored more than yours." Hind added, "Abu
Sufyan is a miser. Is it sinful of me to feed our children from his property?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There
is no blame on you if you feed them (thereof) in a just and reasonable manner.

Narrated Anas bin Malik: When the Prophet (ﷺ) intended to write to the Byzantines, the people said, "They do not read a letter
unless it is sealed (stamped)." Therefore the Prophet (ﷺ) took a silver ring----as if I am looking at its
glitter now----and its engraving was: 'Muhammad, Apostle of Allah'.
Narrated 'Abdullah bin As-Sa'di: That when he went to 'Umar during his Caliphate. 'Umar said to him,
"Haven't I been told that you do certain jobs for the people but when
you are given payment you refuse to take it?" 'Abdullah added: I said,
"Yes." 'Umar said, "Why do you do so?" I said, "I have horses and
slaves and I am living in prosperity and I wish that my payment should
be kept as a charitable gift for the Muslims." 'Umar said, "Do not do
so, for I intended to do the same as you do. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)s used to
give me gifts and I used to say to him, 'Give it to a more needy one
than me.' Once he gave me some money and I said, 'Give it to a more
needy person than me,' whereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Take it and keep
it in your possession and then give it in charity. Take what ever
comes to you of this money if you are not keen to have it and not
asking for it; otherwise (i.e., if it does not come to you) do not
seek to have it yourself.' "

it and keep it in your possession and then give it in charity. Take
whatever comes to you of this money while you are not keen to have it

Narrated Sahl: (the brother of Bani Sa`ida) A man from the Ansar came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "If a man finds

man said, "No." So the Prophet (ﷺ) said (to his companions), "Take him away and stone him to death. "

Narrated Um Salama: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "I am only a human being, and you people (opponents) come to me with your
cases; and it may be that one of you can present his case eloquently in a more convincing way than the
other, and I give my verdict according to what I hear. So if ever I judge (by error) and give the right of
a brother to his other (brother) then he (the latter) should not take it, for I am giving him only a piece
of Fire." (See Hadith No. 638, Vol. 3).
Narrated Abu Qatada: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said on the Day of (the battle of) Hunain, "Whoever has killed an infidel and has a
proof or a witness for it, then the salb (arms and belongings of that deceased) will be for him." I stood
up to seek a witness to testify that I had killed an infidel but I could not find any witness and then sat
down. Then I thought that I should mention the case to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) I (and when I did so) a man
from those who were sitting with him said, "The arms of the killed person he has mentioned, are with
me, so please satisfy him on my behalf." Abu Bakr said, "No, he will not give the arms to a bird of
Quraish and deprive one of Allah's lions of it who fights for the cause of Allah and His Apostle."
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) I stood up and gave it to me, and I bought a garden with its price, and that was my
first property which I owned through the war booty.
The people of Hijaz said, "A judge should not pass a judgment according to his knowledge, whether
he was a witness at the time he was the judge or before that" And if a litigant gives a confession in
favor of his opponent in the court, in the opinion of some scholars, the judge should not pass a
judgment against him till the latter calls two witnesses to witness his confession. And some people of
Iraq said, "A judge can pass a judgement according to what he hears or witnesses (the litigant's
confession) in the court itself, but if the confession takes place outside the court, he should not pass
the judgment unless two witnesses witness the confession." Some of them said, "A judge can pass a
judgement depending on his knowledge of the case as he is trust-worthy, and that a witness is
Required just to reveal the truth. The judge's knowledge is more than the witness." Some said, "A
judge can judge according to his knowledge only in cases involving property, but in other cases he
cannot." Al-Qasim said, "A judge ought not to pass a judgment depending on his knowledge if other
people do not know what he knows, although his knowledge is more than the witness of somebody
else because he might expose himself to suspicion by the Muslims and cause the Muslims to have
unreasonable doubt. "

the Prophet (ﷺ) accompanied her. It happened that two men from the Ansar passed by them and the
Prophet called them saying, "She is Safiya!" those two men said, "Subhan Allah!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Satan circulates in the human body as blood does."
Narrated Abu Burda: The Prophet (ﷺ) sent my father and Mu`adh bin Jabal to Yemen and said (to them), "Make things easy for
the people and do not put hurdles in their way, and give them glad tiding, and don't let them have
aversion (i.e. to make people to hate good deeds) and you both should work in cooperation and mutual
understanding" Abu Musa said to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), "In our country a special alcoholic drink called Al-
Bit', is prepared (for drinking)." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Every intoxicant is prohibited. "

Narrated Abu Humaid Al-Sa`idi: The Prophet (ﷺ) appointed a man from the tribe of Bani Asad, called Ibn Al-Utabiyya to collect the Zakat.
When he returned (with the money) he said (to the Prophet), "This is for you and this has been given
to me as a gift." The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up on the pulpit (Sufyan said he ascended the pulpit), and after
glorifying and praising Allah, he said, "What is wrong with the employee whom we send (to collect
Zakat from the public) that he returns to say, 'This is for you and that is for me?' Why didn't he stay at
his father's and mother's house to see whether he will be given gifts or not? By Him in Whose Hand
my life is, whoever takes anything illegally will bring it on the Day of Resurrection by carrying it over
his neck: if it is a camel, it will be grunting: if it is a cow, it will be mooing: and if it is a sheep it will
be bleating!" The Prophet (ﷺ) then raised both his hands till we saw the whiteness of his armpits (and he
said), "No doubt! Haven't I conveyed Allah's Message?" And he repeated it three times.

Narrated `Urwa bin Az-Zubair: Marwan bin Al-Hakam and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama told him that when the Muslims were permitted
to set free the captives of Hawazin, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "I do not know who amongst you has agreed
(to it) and who has not. Go back so that your 'Urafa' may submit your decision to us." So the people
returned and their 'Urafa' talked to them and then came back to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and told him that the
people had given their consent happily and permitted (their captives to be freed).
