Imam Ahmad in his Musnad states that Muhammad bin Jafar told us this hadith. He said that he was told it by Shu’ba from Qataada from Nasr Ibn Asim, from a man of their tribe who said that they presented themselves in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ and accepted Islam on the condition that they would only pray two prayers. The Prophet ﷺ accepted their condition. It is clear from this that the Prophet ﷺ exempted 3 prayers from them. This is one of the Khasaais – specific attributes – of the Prophet ﷺ; he had the authority to command whatever he wished for whoever he wished and to exempt from any obligation he wished ( Musnad Ahmad, vol 5 p25)

Abu Hurayra states:The Prophet ﷺ delivered a sermon in which he preached ‘O People! Hajj is made obligatory upon you so perform Hajj’. A person then asked ‘Is it every year Yaa RasoolAllah?’ The Prophet remained silent, the man repeated his question three times, the Prophet ﷺ replied ‘If I was to say yes, it would become compulsory every year!’ (Muslim, Musnad Ahmad, Sunan Kubraa Bayhaqee, Nisai, Dar ul Qutni)

Syeduna Baraa narrates: ‘One day (Eid ul Adha) the Prophet ﷺ performed the prayer and stated ‘Whoever prays like us and faces our Qibla should not perform the sacrifice until after completing the prayer’ On hearing this Abu Burda bin Niyaar stood up and pleaded ‘Yaa RasoolAllah, I have (already) done so (performed the sacrifice); I have a six month old calf who looks better than a year old calf, will that suffice? The Prophet ﷺ said ‘Yes, but it is not permissible for anyone after you’ (Bukhaari, Muslim, Tirmidhi, Nisai, Abu Dawud).

The recorder of the revelation Hazat Zaid bin Thaabit described Syeduna Khuzayma in the following way:‘Khuzayma Ansaari is he whose (single) testimony was made by the Prophet ﷺ equal to the testimony of two men’ (Bukhaari)

Syeduna Abu Hurayra narrates: ‘A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and claimed ‘I am destroyed’. The Prophet ﷺ asked ‘What happened to You ?’ The man explained ‘I approached my wife during Rammadhan (whilst Fasting)’. The Prophet ﷺ asked ‘Do you have the ability to free a slave?’ The man replied ‘No’. The Prophet ﷺ then asked ‘Are you able to fast for 2 consecutive months ?’ The man replied ‘No’. The Prophet ﷺ then asked ‘Are you able to feed sixty of the poor ?’ The man replied ‘No’ The Prophet ﷺ ordered him to sit down. (After some time) A sack of dates was placed in front of the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ ordered the man ‘Take these dates and distribute them amongst the poor’. The man pleaded ‘Yaa RasoolAllah! None is poorer than my family in the whole of Madeenah!’ Upon hearing this the Prophet smiled such that his teeth became visible and said ‘Only you eat them!’ (Abu Dawud & Bukhaari)

The following narration of Hadhart Saeed bin Museeb is recorded in Muwatta Imam Malik in which the Prophet ﷺ said ‘Eat these dates and fast the day you broke’There is a weak hadith in Daar ul Qutni which supports the abovementioned hadith and is presented for information‘Syeduna Ali states that after giving the man the dates the Prophet ﷺ said ‘ Go! You and your family eat these dates, Verily Allah has paid your compenstation for you’.

Umme Attiya states:‘When the verse ‘They pledged that they would not …’ was revealed (and one of the things was mourning) I was involved in a mourning. I said to the Prophet ﷺ ‘I will not be involved in the mourning of anyone except the tribe of a particular woman because during the time of Jaahiliyya she had been involved in my mourning and it is necessary for me to be involved in her mourning. The Prophet ruled ‘Except for the (mourning of) that tribe, mourning in Haraam.(Sahih Muslim)

Muslim narrated from `Amr ibn Akhtab [Abu Zayd] al-Ansari radyAllahu `anh who said: “The Prophet ﷺprayed fajr with us then climbed the pulpit and addressed us until the time came for zuhr, then he descended and prayed. Then he climbed the pulpit and addressed us until the time came for `asr, whereupon he descended and prayed. Then he climbed the pulpit and addressed us until the sun set.` He informed us about all that was to happen until the Day of Resurrection` The most knowledgeable of us is he who has memorized the most.”

Al-Bukhari and Muslim narrated from Hudhayfa radyAllahu `anh who said: “The Prophet ﷺstood among us [speaking] for a long time and did not leave out one thing from that time until the rising of the Final Hour except he told us about it. Whoever remembers it remembers it and whoever forgot it forgot it. All those who are present know this. Some of it I might have forgotten, then I see it [happen] and remember it just as someone would remember a man who had been away and then appears before him and he instantly recognizes him.”

It is reported by Hazrat Anas bin Malik (radi Allahutala anhu), who says: “After the decline of the sun (noon) the Holy Prophet ﷺ came out of his Hujrah, and led the Zohr Prayer. After completing the prayer the Holy Prophet mounted the pulpit and delivered the sermon about the Day of Judgement and the big events that will take place before the advent of the Day. Then addressing the companions he asked them if any one of them had any question to ask from him. He proceeded, ‘I swear in the name of Allah, there is nothing that you would ask me and I will not answer it (no query, whatever its nature shall remain unanswered), so long as I am here.'”

Hazrat Anas (radi Allahutala anhu) reports that on hearing this the companions burst in tears, (for it forbode the grave tidings of his leaving the world). But the Holy Prophet ﷺ continued, saying again and again: “Ask me. Ask me (as none after me will tell you).

The Battle of Badr took place on the 17th of Ramadaan. Before the fighting (Jihad) started, the Holy Prophet ﷺ went over the field and disclosed the identity of the enemies of Islam and indicated by placing his hand at different spots and telling “here so and so will be slain.” When the battle was over, it was discovered that each and every person about whom the Prophet ﷺ had indicated, was found at the very spot lying dead, neither inch more or less”

Ubayy ibn Ka’b, when the Prophet ﷺ struck his hand upon his chest to correct him, said: “I began to sweat profusely and it was as if I was looking at Allah Most High Himself” (Muslim #1356, Ahmad 5:127, 129).
