the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The best of dhikr is that which is silent, and the best of provision is that which is just enough."

It was narrated that Usamah said: Muhammad bin "Amr bin "Uthman told me that Muhammad bin ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Labeebah told him... and he narrated

[the same report].

Mus"ab bin Sa"d narrated from his father that

a Bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: Teach me some words to say. He said: "Say: "There is no God but Allah alone, with no partner or associate: Allah is most great, much praise be to Allah, glory be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds, there is no power and no strength except with Allah, the Almighty Most Wise." five times." He said: This is for my Lord, what is there for me? He said: "Say: "O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, grant me provision, guide me and pardon me."

Yahya - i.e., bin Sa"eed al-Ansari - narrated: I heard Sa’eed bin al-Musayyab say:

I heard Sa’d say: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) mentioned both of his parents together for me on the day of Uhud,

Mus"ab bin Sa"d narrated:

My father told me that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Will one of you be incapable of earning one thousand hasanahs in one day?" One of the people who were sitting with him said: Who is able to do that? He said: “He says tasbeeh one hundred times, and it will be recorded as one thousand hasanahs (good deeds) or it will erase one thousand sayyi"ahs (bad deeds]."

It was narrated from "Amir bin Sa"d, that his father Sa"d bin Malik said:

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to say salam to his right and to his left (at the end of the prayer, turning his head) so much that the whiteness of his cheeks could be seen.

It was narrated from “Amir bin Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas, from his father Sa"d, that

the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says when he hears the mu"adhdhin; ‘And I bear witness that there is no God but Allah alone, with no partner or associate, and that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger; I am content with Allah as my Lord, Muhammad as my Messenger and Islam as my religion, his sins will be forgiven him.

Qais told us: I heard Sa"d bin Malik say:

I was the first of the Arabs to shoot an arrow for the sake of Allah. There was a time when we would go out on campaign with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and we would have no food except the leaves of al-hublah and as-samur (desert trees), and one of us would produce stools like a sheep, so dry that nothing would stick to it. And now Banu Asad are teaching me about my religion, in which case I must have been doomed and my efforts wasted.

It was narrated that Mus"ab bin Sa"d said: Four verses were revealed concerning my father, My father said:

I acquired a sword (as booty) and I said: O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), grant it to me (in addition to my share of the booty). He said: “Put it down.” I said: O Messenger of Allah, shall I be treated like one who is of no use (in war)? He said: “Put it back where you got it from.” Then this verse was revealed: "They ask you (O Muhammad) about the spoils of war. Say: The spoils are for Allah and the Messenger" (al Anfal 8:1) - it is like that in the recitation of Ibn Mas"ood: "Say: The spoils". My mother said to me: Didn"t Allah command you to uphold ties of kinship and honour your parents? By Allah, I shall not eat any food or drink anything until you disbelieve in Muhammad, And she did not eat until they opened her mouth with a stick and poured water into it - Shu"bah said: And I think he said: and food - then this verse was revealed: "And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents. His mother bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, he recited until reached what you used to do" [Luqman 31:14, 15). The Prophet (ﷺ) entered upon me when I was sick. I said: O Messenger of Allah, should I bequeath all my wealth (to charity)? He told me not to do that. I said: Half? He said: “No." I said: One third? And he remained silent, so the people followed that, A man of the Ansar made some food and they ate and drank and got drunk. That was before it was prohibited. We gathered at his place and started boasting to one another. The Ansar said: The Ansar are better. The Muhajireen said: The Muhajireen are better. A man threw the jawbone of a camel at him and cut his nose, and Sa"d"s nose was left with a mark. Then this verse was revealed: "O you who believe! Intoxicants (all kinds of alcoholic drinks), and gambling, up to So, will you not then abstain?" (al-Ma"idah 590,91].

Ghunaim narrated: I asked Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas about tamattu ," [in Hajj.

He said: We did that when this one was still a disbeliever living in Makkah - referring to Mu"awiyah.

It was narrated from Muhammad bin Sa"d that his father said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "If the belly of one of you were to be filled with pus, that would be better than filling [his mind] with poetry.”

It was narrated that Mus"ab bin Sa"d said:

I prayed with Sa"d and I did this with my hands - Yahya described putting the two hands together between the knees. He struck my hand and said: We used to do that, then we were instructed to lift our hands to the knees.

Abu Badr told us from Hashim from ‘Amir bin Sa"d.

‘Amir bin Sa"d narrated that his father said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I declare sacred what is between the two lava field of Madinah, (and I forbid) cutting of its thorny shrubs or killing of its game." And he said: "Madinah is better for them, if only they knew, No one leaves it out of dislike for it but Allah will replace him with someone better than him, and no one bears its hardships and difficulties with patience, but I will intercede for him, or be a witness for him, on the Day of Resurrection."

"Amir bin Sa"d narrated from his father that

the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came one day from al-"Aliyah, and when he passed by the mosque of Banu Mu"awiyah, he went in and prayed two rak"ahs, and we prayed with him. Then he called upon his Lord for a long time, then he turned to us and said: "I asked my Lord for three things, and He granted me two and withheld from me one. I asked Him not to let my ummah be destroyed by famine, and He granted me that, I asked Him not to let my ummah be destroyed by drowning and He granted me that: and I asked Him not to let their enmity be amongst themselves, but He withheld that from me.”

It was narrated from "Umar bin Sa"d that his father said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "I am amazed at [the situation of] the believer: if something good befalls him, he praises his Lord and gives thanks, and if calamity strikes him, he seeks reward with his Lord and bears it with patience. The believer will be rewarded for everything, even the morsel he lifts to his mouth."

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “This plague is a punishment or the remainder of a punishment with which people who came before you were punished. If it occurs in a land where you are, do not leave it, fleeing from it. And if you hear that it is in some land, do not enter it."

It was narrated from Dawood bin ‘Amir bin Sa"d bin Malik, from his father, that his grandfather said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "I shall certainly describe the Dajjal in a way in which no one before me described him. He is one eyed and Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, is not one eyed.”
