Volume 3, Book 44, Number 663:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
"Allah's Apostle sent an army towards the east coast and appointed Abu
'Ubaida bin Al-Jarrah as their chief, and the army consisted of
three-hundred men including myself. We marched on till we reached a
place where our food was about to finish. Abu- 'Ubaida ordered us to
collect all the journey food and it was collected. My (our) journey
food was dates. Abu 'Ubaida kept on giving us our daily ration in
small amounts from it, till it was exhausted. The share of everyone of
us used to be one date only." I said, "How could one date benefit
you?" Jabir replied, "We came to know its value when even that too
finished." Jabir added, "When we reached the sea-shore, we saw a huge
fish which was like a small mountain. The army ate from it for
eighteen days. Then Abu 'Ubaida ordered that two of its ribs be fixed
and they were fixed in the ground. Then he ordered that a she-camel be
ridden and it passed under the two ribs (forming an arch) without
touching them."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 664:
Narrated Salama:
Once the journey food diminished and the people were reduced to
poverty. They went to the Prophet and asked his permission to
slaughter their camels, and he agreed. 'Umar met them and they told
him about it, and he said, "How would you survive after slaughtering
your camels?" Then he went to the Prophet and said, "O Allah's
Apostle! How would they survive after slaughtering their camels?"
Allah's Apostle ordered 'Umar, "Call upon the people to bring what has
remained of their food." A leather sheet was spread and al I the
journey food was collected and heaped over it. Allah's Apostle stood
up and invoked Allah to bless it, and then directed all the people to
come with their utensils, and they started taking from it till all of
them got what was sufficient for them. Allah's Apostle then said, "I
testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and I am
His Apostle. "
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 665:
Narrated Rafi bin Khadij:
We used to offer the 'Asr prayer with the Prophet and slaughter a
camel, the meat of which would be divided in ten parts. We would eat
the cooked meat before sunset.
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 666:
Narrated Abu Musa:
The Prophet said, "When the people of Ash'ari tribe ran short of food
during the holy battles, or the food of their families in Medina ran
short, they would collect all their remaining food in one sheet and
then distribute it among themselves equally by measuring it with a
bowl. So, these people are from me, and I am from them."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 667:
Narrated Anas:
that Abu Bakr As-Siddiq wrote to him the law of Zakat which was made
obligatory by Allah's Apostle. He wrote: 'Partners possessing joint
property (sheep) have to pay its Zakat equally.
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 668:
Narrated 'Abaya bin Rafa'a bin Raft' bin Khadij:
My grandfather said, "We were in the company of the Prophet at
Dhul-Hulaifa. The people felt hungry and captured some camels and
sheep (as booty). The Prophet was behind the people. They hurried and
slaughtered the animals and put their meat in pots and started cooking
it. (When the Prophet came) he ordered the pots to be upset and then
he distributed the animals (of the booty), regarding ten sheep as
equal to one camel. One of the camels fled and the people ran after it
till they were exhausted. At that time there were few horses. A man
threw an arrow at the camel, and Allah stopped the camel with it. The
Prophet said, "Some of these animals are like wild animals, so if you
lose control over one of these animals, treat it in this way (i.e.
shoot it with an arrow)." Before distributing them among the soldiers
my grandfather said, "We may meet the enemies in the future and have
no knives; can we slaughter the animals with reeds?" The Prophet said,
"Use whatever causes blood to flow, and eat the animals if the name of
Allah has been mentioned on slaughtering them. Do not slaughter with
teeth or fingernails and I will tell you why: It is because teeth are
bones (i.e. cannot cut properly) and fingernails are the tools used by
the Ethiopians (whom we should not imitate for they are infidels)."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 669:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
The Prophet decreed that one should not eat two dates together at a
time unless he gets the permission from his companions (sharing the
meal with him).
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 670:
Narrated Jabala:
"While at Medina we were struck with famine. Ibn Az-Zubair used to
provide us with dates as our food. Ibn 'Umar used to pass by us and
say, "Don't eat two dates together at a time as the Prophet has
forbidden eating two dates together at a time (in a gathering) unless
one takes the permission of one's companion brother."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 671:
Narrated Nafi:
Ibn 'Umar said, "Allah's Apostle said, 'If one manumits his share of a
jointly possessed slave, and can afford the price of the other shares
according to the adequate price of the slave, the slave will be
completely manumitted; otherwise he will be partially manumitted.' "
(Aiyub, a sub-narrator is not sure whether the saying " ... otherwise
he will be partially manumitted" was said by Nafi' or the Prophet.)
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 672:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "Whoever manumits his share of a jointly possessed
slave, it is imperative for him to get that slave manumitted
completely by paying the remaining price, and if he does not have
sufficient money to manumit him, then the price of the slave should be
estimated justly, and he is to be allowed to work and earn the amount
that will manumit him (without overburdening him)".
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 673:
Narrated An-Nu'man bin Bashir:
The Prophet said, "The example of the person abiding by Allah's order
and restrictions in comparison to those who violate them is like the
example of those persons who drew lots for their seats in a boat. Some
of them got seats in the upper part, and the others in the lower. When
the latter needed water, they had to go up to bring water (and that
troubled the others), so they said, 'Let us make a hole in our share
of the ship (and get water) saving those who are above us from
troubling them. So, if the people in the upper part left the others do
what they had suggested, all the people of the ship would be
destroyed, but if they prevented them, both parties would be safe."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 674:
Narrated 'Urwa bin Az-Zubair:
That he had asked 'Aisha about the meaning of the Statement of Allah:
"If you fear that you shall not Be able to deal justly With the orphan
girls, then Marry (Other) women of your choice Two or three or four."
(4.3)She said, "O my nephew! This is about the orphan girl who lives with
her guardian and shares his property. Her wealth and beauty may tempt
him to marry her without giving her an adequate Mahr (bridal-money)
which might have been given by another suitor. So, such guardians were
forbidden to marry such orphan girls unless they treated them justly
and gave them the most suitable Mahr; otherwise they were ordered to
marry any other woman." 'Aisha further said, "After that verse the
people again asked the Prophet (about the marriage with orphan
'girls), so Allah revealed the following verses:-- 'They ask your
instruction Concerning the women. Say: Allah Instructs you about them
And about what is Recited unto you In the Book, concerning The orphan
girls to whom You give not the prescribed portions and yet whom you
Desire to marry..." (4.127)What is meant by Allah's Saying:-- 'And about what is Recited unto you
is the former verse which goes:-- 'If you fear that you shall not Be
able to deal justly With the orphan girls, then Marry (other) women of
your choice.' (4.3) 'Aisha said, "Allah's saying in the other
verse:--'Yet whom you desire to marry' (4.127) means the desire of the
guardian to marry an orphan girl under his supervision when she has
not much property or beauty (in which case he should treat her
justly). The guardians were forbidden to marry their orphan girls
possessing property and beauty without being just to them, as they
generally refrain from marrying them (when they are neither beautiful
nor wealthy)."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 675:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet established the right of Shu'fa (i.e. Pre-emption) in
joint properties; but when the land is divided and the ways are
demarcated, then there is no pre-emption.
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 676:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet said, "The right of pre-emption is valid in every joint
property, but when the land is divided and the way is demarcated, then
there is no right of pre-emption."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 677:
Narrated Sulaiman bin Abu Muslim:
I asked Abu Minhal about money exchange from hand to hand. He said, "I
and a partner of mine bought something partly in cash and partly on
credit." Al-Bara' bin 'Azib passed by us and we asked about it. He
replied, "I and my partner Zaid bin Al-Arqam did the same and then
went to the Prophet and asked him about it. He said, 'Take what was
from hand to hand and leave what was on credit.' "

condition that they would work on it and cultivate it and take half of
its yield.
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 679:

that Allah's Apostle gave him some sheep to distribute among his
companions in order to sacrifice them and a kid was left. He told the
Prophet about it and the Prophet said to him, "Sacrifice it on your
behalf."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 680:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Hisham:
that his mother Zainab bint Humaid took him to the Prophet and said,
"O Allah's Apostle! Take the pledge of allegiance from him." But he
said, "He is still too young for the pledge," and passed his hand on
his (i.e. 'Abdullah's) head and invoked for Allah's blessing for him.
Zuhra bin Ma'bad stated that he used to go with his grandfather,
'Abdullah bin Hisham, to the market to buy foodstuff. Ibn 'Umar and
Ibn Az-Zubair would meet him and say to him, "Be our partner, as the
Prophet invoked Allah to bless you." So, he would be their partner,
and very often he would win a camel's load and send it home.
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 681:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
The Prophet said, "Whoever manumits his share o a jointly possessed
slave, it is imperative on him to manumit the slave completely if he
has sufficient money to pay the rest of its price which is to be
estimated justly. He should pay his partners their shares and release
him (the freed one).
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 682:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "Whoever manumits his share of a jointly possessed
slave, it is essential for him to manumit the slave completely if he
has sufficient money. Otherwise he should look for some work for the
slave (to earn what would enable him to emancipate himself), without
overburdening him with work."
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 683:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet (along with his companions) reached Mecca in the morning
of the fourth of Dhul-Hijja assuming Ihram for Hajj only. So when we
arrived at Mecca, the Prophet ordered us to change our intentions of
the Ihram for'Umra and that we could finish our Ihram after performing
the 'Umra and could go to our wives (for sexual intercourse). The
people began talking about that. Jabir said surprisingly, "Shall we go
to Mina while semen is dribbling from our male organs?" Jabir moved
his hand while saying so. When this news reached the Prophet he
delivered a sermon and said, "I have been informed that some peoples
were saying so and so; By Allah I fear Allah more than you do, and am
more obedient to Him than you. If I had known what I know now, I would
not have brought the Hadi (sacrifice) with me and had the Hadi not
been with me, I would have finished the Ihram." At that Suraqa bin
Malik stood up and asked "O Allah's Apostle! Is this permission for us
only or is it forever?" The Prophet replied, "It is forever." In the
meantime 'Ali bin Abu Talib came from Yemen and was saying Labbaik for
what the Prophet has intended. (According to another man, 'Ali was
saying Labbaik for Hajj similar to Allah's Apostle's). The Prophet
told him to keep on the Ihram and let him share the Hadi with him.
Volume 3, Book 44, Number 684:
Narrated Abaya bin Rifaa:
My grandfather, Rafi bin Khadij said, "We were in the valley of
Dhul-Hulaifa of Tuhama in the company of the Prophet and had some
camels and sheep (of the booty). The people hurried (in slaughtering
the animals) and put their meat in the pots and started cooking.
Allah's Apostle came and ordered them to upset the pots, and
distributed the booty considering one camel as equal to ten sheep. One
of the camels fled and the people had only a few horses, so they got
worried. (The camel was chased and) a man slopped the camel by
throwing an arrow at it. Allah's Apostle said, 'Some of these animals
are untamed like wild animals, so if anyone of them went out of your
control, then you should treat it as you have done now.' " My
grandfather said, "O Allah's Apostle! We fear that we may meet our
enemy tomorrow and we have no knives, could we slaughter the animals
with reeds?" The Prophet said, "Yes, or you can use what would make
blood flow (slaughter) and you can eat what is slaughtered and the
Name of Allah is mentioned at the time of slaughtering. But don't use
teeth or fingernails (in slaughtering). I will tell you why, as for
teeth, they are bones, and fingernails are used by Ethiopians for
slaughtering. (See Hadith 668)
