I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he said to me, "Come near." So I went near to him
and he said, "Are your lice troubling you?" I replied, "Yes." He said, "(Shave
your head and) make expiation in the form of fasting, Sadaqa (giving in
charity), or offering a sacrifice." (The sub-narrator) Aiyub said, "Fasting
should be for three days, and the Nusuk (sacrifice) is to be a sheep, and the
Sadaqa is to be given to six poor persons."
A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "I am ruined!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"What is the matter with you?" He said, "I had sexual relation with my wife
(while I was fasting) in Ramadan." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Have you got enough to
manumit a slave?" He said, "No." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Can you fast for two
successive months?" The man said, "No." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Can you feed
sixty poor persons?" The man said, "No." Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, "Sit
down," and he sat down. Afterwards an 'Irq, i.e., a big basket containing dates
was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) and the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, "Take this and
give it in charity." The man said, "To poorer people than we?" On that, the
Prophet (ﷺ) smiled till his premolar teeth became visible, and then told him,
"Feed your family with it." (See Hadith No. 157, Vol 3)

قَالَ لاَ. قَالَ " اجْلِسْ ". فَجَلَسَ فَأُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه
وسلم بِعَرَقٍ فِيهِ تَمْرٌ ـ وَالْعَرَقُ الْمِكْتَلُ الضَّخْمُ ـ قَالَ " خُذْ

A man came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "I am ruined!" The Prophet (ﷺ)
said to him, "What is the matter?" He said, "I have done a sexual relation with
my wife (while fasting) in Ramadan." The Prophet said to him?" "Can you afford
to manumit a slave?" He said, "No." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Can you fast for two
successive months?" He said, "No." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Can you feed sixty
poor persons?" He said, "No." Then an Ansari man came with an Irq (a big basket
full of dates). The Prophet said (to the man), "Take this (basket) and give it
in charity." That man said, "To poorer people than we, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)?
By Him Who has sent you with the Truth! There is no house in between the two
mountains (of the city of Medina) poorer than we." So the Prophet (ﷺ) said (to
him), "Go and feed it to your family."

containing dates was given to the Prophet, and the Prophet (ﷺ) said (to him),
"Take this basket and give it in charity." The man said, "To poorer people than
we? Indeed, there is nobody between its (i.e., Medina's) two mountains who is
poorer than we." The Prophet then said, "Take it and feed your family with it."
As-Sa'ib bin Yazid said, "The Sa' at the time of the Prophet (ﷺ) was equal to
one Mudd plus one-third of a Mudd of your time, and then it was increased in the
time of Caliph 'Umar bin 'Abdul 'Aziz."
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If somebody manumits a Muslim slave, Allah will save from
the Fire every part of his body for freeing the corresponding parts of the
slave's body, even his private parts will be saved from the Fire) because of
freeing the slave's private parts."
Jabir said: An Ansari man made his slave a Mudabbar and he had no other property
than him. When the Prophet (ﷺ) heard of that, he said (to his companions), "Who
wants to buy him (i.e., the slave) for me?" Nu'aim bin An-Nahham bought him for
eight hundred Dirhams. I heard Jabir saying, "That was a coptic slave who died
in the same year."
that she intended to buy Barira (a slave girl) and her masters stipulated that
they would have her Wala'. When 'Aisha mentioned that to the Prophet (ﷺ) ; he
said, "Buy her, for the Wala' is for the one who manumits."

I went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) along with a group of people from (the tribe of)
Al-Ash'ari, asking for mounts. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "By Allah, I will not give
you anything to ride, and I have nothing to mount you on." We stayed there as
long as Allah wished, and after that, some camels were brought to the Prophet
and he ordered that we be given three camels. When we set out, some of us said
to others, "Allah will not bless us, as we all went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
asking him for mounts, and although he had sworn that he would not give us
mounts, he did give us." So we returned to the Prophet; and mentioned that to
him. He said, "I have not provided you with mounts, but Allah has. By Allah,
Allah willing, if I ever take an oath, and then see that another is better than
the first, I make expiration for my (dissolved) oath, and do what is better and
make expiration."

We were sitting with Abu Musa Al-Ash'sari, and as there were ties of friendship
and mutual favors between us and his tribe. His meal was presented before him
and there was chicken meat in it. Among those who were present there was a man
from Bani Taimillah having a red complexion as a non-Arab freed slave, and that
man did not approach the meal. Abu Musa said to him, "Come along! I have seen
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) eating of that (i.e., chicken)." The man said, "I have
seen it (chickens) eating something I regarded as dirty, and so I have taken an
oath that I shall not eat (its meat) chicken." Abu Musa said, "Come along! I
will inform you about it (i.e., your oath). Once we went to Allah's Messenger
(ﷺ) in company with a group of Ash'airiyin, asking him for mounts while he was
distributing some camels from the camels of Zakat. (Aiyub said, "I think he said
that the Prophet was in an angry mood at the time.") The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'By
Allah! I will not give you mounts, and I have nothing to mount you on.' After we
had left, some camels of booty were brought to Allah's Apostle and he said,
"Where are those Ash'ariyin? Where are those Ash'ariyin?" So we went (to him)
and he gave us five very fat good-looking camels. We mounted them and went away,
and then I said to my companions, 'We went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to give us
mounts, but he took an oath that he would not give us mounts, and then later on
he sent for us and gave us mounts, perhaps Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forgot his
oath. By Allah, we will never be successful, for we have taken advantage of the
fact that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forgot to fulfill his oath. So let us return to
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to remind him of his oath.' We returned and said, 'O
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We came to you and asked you for mounts, but you took an
oath that you would not give us mounts) but later on you gave us mounts, and we
thought or considered that you have forgotten your oath.' The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
'Depart, for Allah has given you Mounts. By Allah, Allah willing, if I take an
oath and then later find another thing better than that, I do what is better,
and make expiation for the oath.' "
