Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be

Muhammad, or Abu al-Qasim, verify, Allah, the Exalted and
Glorious. would carry the Heavens on the Day of Judgment
upon one finger and earths upon one finger and the
mountains and trees upor one finger and the ocean and
moist earth upon one finger-in fact the whole of the
creation upon one finger, and then He would stir them and
say: I am your Lord, I am your Lord. Thereupon Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) smiled testifying what
that scholar had said. He then recited this verse:" And
they honour not Allah with the honour due to Him; and the
whole earth will be in His grip on the Day of Resurrection
and the heaven* r*Utd up in His right hand. Glory be to
Him I and highly Exalted is Re above what they associate

open them (and say): I am your Lord. I saw the pulpit in
commotion from underneath because of something (vib-ating)
there. And (I felt this commotion so much) that I said (to
myself): It may not fall with Allah's Massenger (may peace
be upon him) upon it.
Book 039, Number 6706:
Abdullah b. Miqsam reported that 'Abdullah b. 'Umar

and he said: Abu al-Qasim, may the Compassionate Lord be

arranged in honour of the people of Paradise on the Day of
Resurrection? He said: Do it, of course. He said: The
earth would become one single bread. Then Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) looked towards us and
laughed until his molar teeth became visible. He then
again said: May I inform you about that with which they
would season it? He said: Do it, of course. He said: Their
seasoning would be balim and fish. The Companions of the

with Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) in a
cultivable land and he (the Holy Prophet) was walking with
the support of a wood, a group of Jews happened to meet
him. Some of them said to the others: Ask him about the
Soul. They said: Wbat is your doubt about it? There is a
possibility that you may ask him about anything (the
answer of) which you may not like. They said: Ask him. So
one amongst them asked him about the Soul. Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) kept quiet and he gave
no reply and I came to know that revelation was being sent
to him, so I stood at my place and thus this revelation
descended upon him:" They ask thee 'about Soul. Say: The
Soul is by the Commandment of my Lord, and of Knowledge
you are given but a little" (xvii. 58).
Book 039, Number 6713:

Apostle (may peace be upon him) in a field of Medina. The
rest of the hadith is the same, but there is a slight
variation of wording.
Book 039, Number 6714:
Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle (may peace be
upon h@) was reclining against a tree in the garden. The
rest of the hadith is the same. but there is a slight
variation of wording.
Book 039, Number 6715:
Khabbab reported that al-As b. Wa'il owed debt to me. I
came to him in order to demand that. He said: I will never
repay you unless you belie Mubammad. I said: I would never
belie Mubammad until you die and you are again raised up.
He said: When I would be raised up after death, I would
repay your debt when I would get my property and children
back. Waki' said: This is how Almash has narrated and it
was on this occasion that this verse was revealed:" Hast
thou seen him who dis. believes in Our message and says: I
shall certainly be given wealth and children' (xis, 77) up
to" he would come to Us alone" (xiX. 80).
Book 039, Number 6716:
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of
Khabbib through another chain of transmitters and the

Chapter 6: PERTAINING TO THE WORDS OF ALLAIIH:
ALLAH WOULD NEVER PUNISH THEM SO LONG AS YOU ARE AMONGST
THEM"
Book 039, Number 6717:
Anas b. Malik reported that Abu Jahl said: O Allah, if
he is true, then shower upon us the volley of stones from
the sky or inflict upon us a grievous torment, and it was
on this occasion that this verse was revealed:" 'Allah
would never torment them so long as you are amongst them.
And Allah is not going to torment them as long as they
seek forgiveness. And why is it that Allah should not
torment them and they prevent people from coming to the
sacred mosque...." (viii. 34) to the end.
Chapter 7: PERTAINING TO THE WORDS OF ALLAH:"
NAY, BUT VERILY MAN IS INORDINATE, BECAUSE HE LOOKS UPON
HIMSELF AS SELF-SUFFICIENT"
Book 039, Number 6718:
Abu Huraira reported that Abu Jahl asked (people)
whether Mubammad placed his face (on the ground) in their
presence. It was said to him: Yes. He said: By Lit and
Uzza. If I were to see him do that, I would trample his
neck, or I would beamear his face with dust. He came to
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as he was
engaged in prayer and thought of trampling his neck (and
the people say) that he came near him but turned upon his
heels and tried to repulse something with his hands. It
was said to him: What is the matter with you? He said:
There is between me and him a ditch of fire and terror and
wings. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him)
said: If he were to come near me the angels would have
torn him to pieces. Then Allah, the Exalted and Glorious,
revealed this verse- (the narrator) said: We do not
whether it is the hadith transmitted te Abu Huraira or
something conveyed to him from another source:" Nay, man
is surely inordinate, because he looks upon himself as
self-sufficient. Surely to thy Lord is the return. Hast
thou seen him who forbids a servant when he prays? Seest
thou if he is on the right way, or enjoins observance of
piety? Seest thou if he [Abu Jah]] denies and turns away?
Knowest he not that Allah sees? Nay. if he desists not, We
will seize him by the forelock-a lying, sinful forelock.
Then let him summon his council. We will summon the guards
of the Hell. Nay! Obey not thou him" (Icvi. 6-19). (Rather
prostrate thyself.) Ubaidullah made this addition: It was
after this that (prostration) was enjoined upon and Ibn
Abd al-Ala made this addition that by Nadia he meant his
people.
Book 039, Number 6719:
Masruq reported: We were sitting in the company of
Abdullah and he was lying on the bed that a person came
and said: Abd Abd al-Rabmin, a story-teller at the gates
of Kinda says that the verse (of the Qur'an) which deals
with the" smoke" implies that which is about to come and
it would hold the breath of the infidels and would inflict
the believers with cold. Thereupon Abdullah got up and
said in anger. O people, fear Allah and say only that
which one knows amongst you and do not say which he does
not know and he should simply say: Allah has the best
knowledge for He has the best knowledge amongst all of
you. It does not behove him to say that which he does not
know. Allah has the best knowledge of it. Verily Allah,
the Exalted and Glorious, said to His Prophet (may peace
be upon him) to state:" I do not ask from you any
remuneration and I am not the one to put you in trouble,"
and when Allah's Mesqenger (may peace be upon him) saw
people turning back (from religion) he said: O Allah,
afflict thern with seven famines as was done in the case
of Yusuf, so they were afflicted with famine by which they
were forced to eat everything until they were obliged to
eat the hides and the dead bodies because of hunger, and
every one of them looked towards the sky and he found a
smoke. And Abu Sufyan came and he said: Muhammad, you have
come to command us to obey Allah and cement the ties of
blood- relation whereas your people are undone; supplicate
Allah for tlicm. Thereupon Allah, the Exalted and
Glorious, said:" Wait for the day when there would be
clear smoke from the sky which would envelop people and
that would be grievous torivent" up to the words:" you are
going to return to (evil)." (if this verse implied the
torment of the next life) could the chastisement of the
next (life) be averted (as the Qur'an states): On the day
when We seize (them) with the most violent seizing; surely
We shall exact retribution" (xliv. 16)? The seizing (in
the hadith) implies that of the Day of Badr. And so far as
the sign of smoke, seizing, inevitability and signs of
Rome are concern- ed, they have become things of the past
now.
Book 039, Number 6720:
Masruq reported that there came to Abdullah a person
and said: I have left behind in the mosque a man who
explains the Qur'an according to his personal discretion
and he explained this verse:" So wait for the day when the
Heaven brings a clear smoke." He says that a smoke would
come to the people on the Day of Resurrection anl it will
withhold breath and they would be inflicted with cold.
'Abdullah said: He who has knowledge should say something
and he who has no knowledge should simply say: Allah is
best aware. This reflects the understanding of a person
that he should say about that which he does not know that
it is Allah who knows best. The fact is that when the
Quraish disobeyed Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him)
he supplicated Allah that they should be afflicted with
famine and starvation as was done in case of Yusuf. And
they were so much hard pressed that a person would ace the
sky and he would see between him and the sky something
like smoke and they were so much hard pressed that they
began to cat the bones, and a person came to Allah's
Apostle (may peace be upon him) and said: Allah's
Messenger. seek forgiveness for the tribe of Mudar for
(its people) have been undone. The Messenger (may peace be
upon him) said: For Mudar? You are overbold, but he
supplicated Allah for them. It was upon this that this
verse was revealed:" We shall remove the chastisement a
little, but they will surely return to evil" (xliv. 15).
lie (the narrator) said: There was a downpoor of rain upon
them. When there was some relief for them they returned to
the same position as they had been before, and Allah, the
Exalted and Glorious, revealed this verse:" So wait for
the day when the heaven brings a clear smoke enveloping
people. This is a grievous torment on the day when We
seize them with the most violent seizing; surely, We shall
exact retribution." And this (seizing) implied (Battle) of
Badr.
Book 039, Number 6721:
Abdullah said that five signs have (become things) of
the past (and have proved the truth of the Holy Prophet):
(Enveloping) by the smoke, inevitable (punishment to the
Meccans at Badr), (the victory of) Rome, (violent) seizing
(of the Meccans at Badr) and (the splitting up of) the
Moon.
Book 039, Number 6722:
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of
A'mash with the same chain of transmitters.
Book 039, Number 6723:
Ubayy b. Ka'b reported that the words of Allah, the
Exalted and Glorious:" We will, surely, make them taste
the lesser punishment before the severer punishment (that
haply they may return)" (xxxii. 21) imply the torments of
the world. (victory of) Rome, seizing (of the Meccans), or
smoke. And Shalba was in doubt about seizing or smoke.
Chapter 8: THE SPLITTING UP OF THE MOON (A GREAT
MIRACLE)
Book 039, Number 6724:
Abu Ma'mar reported on the authority of Abdullah that
the moon was split up during lifetime by Allah's Messenger
(may peace be upon him) in two parts and Allah's Messenger
(may peace be upon him) said: Bear testimony to this.
Book 039, Number 6725:
This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of
Abdullah b. Mas'ud (who said): We were along with Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) at Mina, that moon was
split up into two. One of its parts was behind the
mountain and the other one was on this side of the
mountain. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upbn him) said
to us: Bear witness to this.
Book 039, Number 6726:
'Abdullah b. Mas'ud reported that the moon was split up
in two parts during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him). The mountain covered one of its parts
and one part of it was above the mountain and Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Bear witness to
this.
Book 039, Number 6727:
This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of
Shu'ba with a slight variation of wording.
Book 039, Number 6728:
Anas reported that the people of Mecca demanded from
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) that he should
show them (some) signs (miracles) and he showed tlicin the
splitting of the moon. This hadlth has been narrated on
the authority of Anas through another chain of
transmitters.
Book 039, Number 6729:
Anas reported that the moon was split up in two parts
and in the hadith recorded in Abu Dawud, the words are:"
The moon was split up into two parts during the life of
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him)."
Book 039, Number 6730:
Ibn 'Abbas reported that the moon was split up during
the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him).
Chapter 9: THERE IS NONE TO SHOW MORE PATIENCE
THAN ALLAH, THE EXALTED AND GLORIOUS, ON ATTRIBUTING WRONG
THINGS TO HIM
Book 039, Number 6731:
AbU Musa reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) said: There is none to show more patience at
listening to the most irksome things than Allah, the
Exalted and Glorious. ' Partnership is associated to Him
(polytheism). and (fatherhood) of a child is attributed to
HiM, but in spite of this He protects them (people) and
provides them sustenance. This hadith has been transmitted
on the authority of Abu Muas with a slight variation of
wording.
Book 039, Number 6732:
Abdullah b. Qais reported from Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him) that none is more forbearing in
listening to the most irksome things than Allah, the
Exalted. They associate rivals with him, attribute sonhood
to Him, but in spite of this He provides them sustenance,
grants them safety, confers upon them so many things.
Book 039, Number 6733:
Anas b. Malik reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) as saying: Allah, the Exalted and High, would
say to one who shall have to undergo the least torture (on
the Day of Resurrection): Would you like to go as ransom
if you had all worldly riches; he would say: Yes. Allah
would say to him: When you were in the loins of Adam, I
demadded from you something easier than this that you
should not associate anything with Me. (The narrator
says): I think He also said: I would not cause you to
enter Hell-Fire but you defied and attributed Divinity (to
others besides Me).
Book 039, Number 6734:
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Anas
b. Malik through another chain of transmitters, but with a
slight variation of wording (and the words are): I shall
cause him to enter Hell." (The words subsequent to these)
have not been mentioned.
Book 039, Number 6735:
Anas b. Malik reported that Allah's Messenger (may
peace be u n him) said: It would be said to the
non-believers on the Day of Resurrection: If you were to
possess gold, filling the whole earth, would you like to
secure your freedom by paying that? He would say: Yes.
Thereupon it would be said to him: Something easier (than
this) was demanded from you (but you paid no heed to it).
Book 039, Number 6736:
Anas reported this hadlth through another chain of
transmitters and the words are:" It would be said to him:
You have told a lie; what had been demanded from you was
quite easier than this (the belief in the Oneness of
Allah)."

CRAWL ON THEIR FACES
Book 039, Number 6737:
Anas b. Malik reported that a person said: Allah's
Messenger, how the non-believers would be made to assemble
on the Day of Resurrection (by crawling) on their faces?
Thereupon he said: Is He Who is powerfnl to make them walk
on their feet is not powerful enough to make them (crawl)
upon their faces on the Day of Resurrection? Qatada said:
Of conrse, it is so. (He adjured): By the might of our
Lord.
Chapter 11: DIPPING OF THE MOST AFFLUENT PEOPLE
OF THE WORLD IN THE HELL-FIRE AND DIPPING OF THE MOST
(WORLDLY) MISERABLE IN PARADISE

peace be upon him) said that one amongst the denizens of
Hell who had led a life of ease and plenty amongst the
people of the world would be made to dip in Fire only once
on the Day of Resurrection and then it would be said to
him: O, son of Adam, did you find any comfort, did you
happen to get any material blessing? He would say: By
Allah, no, my Lord. And then that person from amongst the
persons of the world be brought who had led the most
miserable life (in the world) from amongst the inmates of
Paradise. and he would be made to dip once in Paradise and
it would be said to him. 0, son of Adam, did you face, any
hardship? Or had any distress fallen to your lot? And he
would say: By Allah, no,0 my Lord, never did I face any
hardship or experience any distress.
Book 039, Number 6739:
Anas b. Malik reported that Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him) said: Verily, Allah does nut treat a
believer unjustly in regard to his virtues. He would
confer upon him (His blessing) in this world and would
give him reward in the Hereafter. And as regards a
non-believer. he would be made to taste the reward (of
virtue in this world) what as has done for himself so much
that when it would be the Hereafter. he would find no
virtue for which he should be rewarded.

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) as saying: The Similitude of a believer is that
of (a standing) crop which the air continues to toss from
one side to another; in the same way a believer always
(receives the strokes) of misfortune. The similitude of a
hypocrite is that of a cypress tree which does not move
until it is uprooted.
Book 039, Number 6743:
This badith has been narrated on the authority of Zuhri
with the same chain of transmitters, but with a slight
variation of wording.
Book 039, Number 6744:
Ka'b reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon
him) said that the similitude of a believer is that of a
standing crop in a field which is shaken by wind and then
it comes to its original position but it stands at its
roots. The similitude of a non-believer is that of a
cypress tree which stands on its roots and nothing shakes
it but it is uprooted (with) one (violent stroke).
Book 039, Number 6745:
Ka'b b. Malik reported on the authority of his father
that the similitude of a believer is that of a standing
crop. The wind sometimes shakes it and sometimes raises it
up and then it comes to its destined end. And the
similitude of a hypocrite is that of a cypress tree which
is not affected by anything but is uprooted once for all.
This badith has been narrated through another chain, of
transmitters also.
Book 039, Number 6746:
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Ibn
Ka'b through another chain of transmitters but with a

DATE-PALM TREE
Book 039, Number 6747:
'Abdullah b. Umar reported that Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him) said: There is a tree amongst trees,
the leaves of which do not wither and that is like a
Muslim; tell me which that (tree) can be? The people began
to think of the trees of the forest. Abdullah said: I
thought that it could be the date-palm tree, but I felt
hesitant (to say that). They (the Companions) then said:
Allah's Messenger, (kindly) tell us which that can be?
Thereupon he said: It is the date-palm tree. I made a
mention of that to 'Umar, whereupon he said: Had you said
that it meant the date-palin tree, this statement of yours
(would have been dearer to me) than such and such things.
Book 039, Number 6748:
Ibn Umar reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) one day said to his Companions: Tell me about a
tree which has resemblance with a believer. The people
began to mention (different) trees of the forest. Ibn
'Umar said: It was instilled in my mind or in my heart and
it stuck therein that it implied the date- palm tree. I
made up my mind to make a mention of that but could not do
that because of the presence of the elderly people there.
When there was a hush amongst them (after they had
expressed their views), Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) said: It Is the date-palm tree.
Book 039, Number 6749:
Mujahid said: (I have had the privilege) of
accompanying Ibn 'Umar up to Medina but I did not hear him
narrate anything from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon

presence of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) that
there was brought to him the kernel of a date. The rest of
the hadith is the same.
