Narrated 'Umar bin Al-Khattab:
The Prophet said, 'O people! The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions,
and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. So,
whoever emigrated for Allah and His Apostle, then his emigration was for Allah
and His Apostle, and whoever emigrated to take worldly benefit or for a woman to
marry, then his emigration was for what he emigrated for."

Volume 9, Book 86, Number 88:
Narrated Talha bin 'Ubaidullah:
A bedouin with unkempt hair came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's
Apostle! Tell me what Allah has enjoined on me as regards prayers." The Prophet
said, "You have to offer perfectly the five (compulsory) prayers in a day and a
night (24 hrs.), except if you want to perform some extra optional prayers." The
bedouin said, "Tell me what Allah has enjoined on me as regards fasting." The
Prophet said, "You have to observe fast during the month of Ramadan except if
you fast some extra optional fast." The bedouin said, "Tell me what Allah has
enjoined on me as regard Zakat." The Prophet then told him the Islamic laws and
regulations whereupon the bedouin said, "By Him Who has honored you, I will not
perform any optional deeds of worship and I will not leave anything of what
Allah has enjoined on me." Allah's Apostle said, "He will be successful if he
has told the truth (or he will enter Paradise if he said the truth)." And some
people said, "The Zakat for one-hundred and twenty camels is two Hiqqas, and if
the Zakat payer slaughters the camels intentionally or gives them as a present
or plays some other trick in order to avoid the Zakat, then there is no harm (in
it) for him.
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 89:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "On the Day of Resurrection the Kanz (Treasure or
wealth of which, Zakat has not been paid) of anyone of you will appear in the
shape of a huge bald headed poisonous male snake and its owner will run away
from it, but it will follow him and say, 'I am your Kanz.'" The Prophet added,
"By Allah, that snake will keep on following him until he stretches out his hand
and let the snake swallow it." Allah's Apostle added, "If the owner of camels
does not pay their Zakat, then, on the Day of Resurrection those camels will
come to him and will strike his face with their hooves." Some people said:
Concerning a man who has camels, and is afraid that Zakat will be due so he
sells those camels for similar camels or for sheep or cows or money one day
before Zakat becomes due in order to avoid payment of their Zakat cunningly! "He
has not to pay anything." The same scholar said, "If one pays Zakat of his
camels one day or one year prior to the end of the year (by the end of which
Zakat becomes due), his Zakat will be valid."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 90t:
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
Sa'd bin 'Ubada Al-Ansari sought the verdict of Allah's Apostle regarding a
vow made by his mother who had died before fulfilling it. Allah's Apostle said,
"Fulfill it on her behalf." Some people said, "If the number of camels reaches
twenty, then their owner has to pay four sheep as Zakat; and if their owner
gives them as a gift or sells them in order to escape the payment of Zakat
cunningly before the completion of a year, then he is not to pay anything, and
if he slaughters them and then dies, then no Zakat is to be taken from his
property."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 90:
Narrated 'Abdullah:
Nafi narrated to me that 'Abdullah said that Allah's Apostle forbade the
Shighar. I asked Nafi', "What is the Shighar?" He said, "It is to marry the
daughter of a man and marry one's daughter to that man (at the same time)
without Mahr (in both cases); or to marry the sister of a man and marry one's
own sister to that man without Mahr." Some people said, "If one, by a trick,
marries on the basis of Shighar, the marriage is valid but its condition is
illegal." The same scholar said regarding Al-Mut'a, "The marriage is invalid and
its condition is illegal." Some others said, "The Mut'a and the Shighar are
permissible but the condition is illegal."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 91:
Narrated Muhammad bin 'Ali:
'Ali was told that Ibn 'Abbas did not see any harm in the Mut'a marriage.
'Ali said, "Allah's Apostle forbade the Mut'a marriage on the Day of the battle
of Khaibar and he forbade the eating of donkey's meat." Some people said, "If
one, by a tricky way, marries temporarily, his marriage is illegal." Others
said, "The marriage is valid but its condition is illegal."

Narrated 'Urwa:
That he asked 'Aisha regarding the Verse: 'If you fear that you shall not be
able to deal justly with the orphan girls, marry (other) women of your choice.'
(4.3) 'Aisha said, "It is about an orphan girl under the custody of her guardian
who being attracted by her wealth and beauty wants to marry her with Mahr less
than other women of her status. So such guardians were forbidden to marry them
unless they treat them justly by giving them their full Mahr. Then the people
sought the verdict of Allah's Apostle for such cases, whereupon Allah revealed:
'They ask your instruction concerning women..' (4.127) (The sub-narrator then
mentioned the Hadith.)

The Prophet said, "I am only a human being, and you people have disputes. May
be some one amongst you can present his case in a more eloquent and convincing
manner than the other, and I give my judgment in his favor according to what I
hear. Beware! If ever I give (by error) somebody something of his brother's
right then he should not take it as I have only, given him a piece of Fire."
(See Hadith No. 638. Vol. 3)
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 98:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "A virgin should not be married till she is asked for her
consent; and the matron should not be married till she is asked whether she
agrees to marry or not." It was asked, "O Allah's Apostle! How will she(the
virgin) express her consent?" He said, "By keeping silent." Some people said,
"If a virgin is not asked for her consent and she is not married, and then a
man, by playing a trick presents two false witnesses that he has married her
with her consent and the judge confirms his marriage as a true one, and the
husband knows that the witnesses were false ones, then there is no harm for him
to consummate his marriage with her and the marriage is regarded as valid."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 99:
Narrated Al-Qasim:
A woman from the offspring of Ja'far was afraid lest her guardian marry her
(to somebody) against her will. So she sent for two elderly men from the Ansar,
'AbdurRahman and Mujammi', the two sons of Jariya, and they said to her, "Don't
be afraid, for Khansa' bint Khidam was given by her father in marriage against
her will, then the Prophet cancelled that marriage." (See Hadith No. 78)
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 100:
Narrated Abu Haraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "A lady slave should not be given in marriage until she
is consulted, and a virgin should not be given in marriage until her permission
is granted." The people said, "How will she express her permission?" The Prophet
said, "By keeping silent (when asked her consent)." Some people said, "If a man,
by playing a trick, presents two false witnesses before the judge to testify
that he has married a matron with her consent and the judge confirms his
marriage, and the husband is sure that he has never married her (before), then
such a marriage will be considered as a legal one and he may live with her as
husband."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 101:
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle said, "It is essential to have the consent of a virgin (for
the marriage). I said, "A virgin feels shy." The Prophet; said, "Her silence
means her consent." Some people said, "If a man falls in love with an orphan
slave girl or a virgin and she refuses (him) and then he makes a trick by
bringing two false witnesses to testify that he has married her, and then she
attains the age of puberty and agrees to marry him and the judge accepts the
false witness and the husband knows that the witnesses were false ones, he may
consummate his marriage."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 102:
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle used to like sweets and also used to like honey, and whenever
he finished the ' Asr prayer, he used to visit his wives and stay with them. Once
he visited Hafsa and remained with her longer than the period he used to stay,
so I enquired about it. It was said to me, "A woman from her tribe gave her a
leather skin containing honey as a present, and she gave some of it to Allah's
Apostle to drink." I said, "By Allah, we will play a trick on him." So I
mentioned the story to Sauda (the wife of the Prophet) and said to her, "When he
enters upon you, he will come near to you whereupon you should say to him, 'O
Allah's Apostle! Have you eaten Maghafir?' He will say, 'No.' Then you say to
him, 'What is this bad smell? ' And it would be very hard on Allah's Apostle
that a bad smell should be found on his body. He will say, 'Hafsa has given me a
drink of honey.' Then you should say to him, 'Its bees must have sucked from the
Al-'Urfut (a foul smelling flower).' I too, will tell him the same. And you, O
Saifya, say the same."
So when the Prophet entered upon Sauda (the following happened). Sauda said,
"By Him except Whom none has the right to be worshipped, I was about to say to
him what you had told me to say while he was still at the gate because of fear
from you. But when Allah 's Apostle came near to me, I said to him, 'O Allah's
Apostle! Have you eaten Maghafir?' He replied, 'No.' I said, 'What about this
smell?' He said, 'Hafsa has given me a drink of honey.' I said, 'Its bees must
have sucked Al-'Urfut.' " When he entered upon me, I told him the same as that,
and when he entered upon Safiya, she too told him the same. So when he visited
Hafsa again, she said to him, "O Allah's Apostle! Shall I give you a drink of it
(honey)?" He said, "I have no desire for it." Sauda said, Subhan Allah! We have
deprived him of it (honey)." I said to her, "Be quiet!"
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 103:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amir bin Rabi'a:
'Umar bin Al-Khattab left for Sham, and when he reached a placed called
Sargh, he came to know that there was an outbreak of an epidemic (of plague) in
Sham. Then 'AbdurRahman bin 'Auf told him that Allah's Apostle said, "If you
hear the news of an outbreak of an epidemic (plague) in a certain place, do not
enter that place: and if the epidemic falls in a place while you are present in
it, do not leave that place to escape from the epidemic." So 'Umar returned from
Sargh.
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 104:
Narrated 'Amir bin Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas:
That he heard Usama bin Zaid speaking to Sa'd, saying, "Allah's Apostle
mentioned the plague and said, 'It is a means of punishment with which some
nations were punished and some of it has remained, and it appears now and then.
So whoever hears that there is an outbreak of plague in some land, he should not
go to that land, and if the plague breaks out in the land where one is already
present, one should not run away from that land, escaping from the plague."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 105:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet said, "The one who takes back his gift is like a dog swallowing
its own vomit, and we (believers) should not act according to this bad example."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 106:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet has decreed that preemption is valid in all cases where the real
estate concerned has not been divided, but if the boundaries are established and
the ways are made, then there is no preemption. A man said, "Preemption is only
for the neighbor," and then he makes invalid what he has confirmed. He said, "If
someone wants to buy a house and being afraid that the neighbor (of the house)
may buy it through preemption, he buys one share out of one hundred shares of
the house and then buys the rest of the house, then the neighbor can only have
the right of preemption for the first share but not for the rest of the house;
and the buyer may play such a trick in this case."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 107:
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid:
Al-Miswar bin Makhrama came and put his hand on my shoulder and I accompanied
him to Sa'd. Abu Rafi' said to Al-Miswar, "Won't you order this (i.e. Sa'd) to
buy my house which is in my yard?" Sa'd said, "I will not offer more than four
hundred in installments over a fixed period." Abu Rafi said, "I was offered five
hundred cash but I refused. Had I not heard the Prophet saying, 'A neighbor is
more entitled to receive the care of his neighbor,' I would not have sold it to
you." The narrator said, to Sufyan: Ma'mar did not say so. Sufyan said, "But he
did say so to me." Some people said, "If someone wants to sell a house and
deprived somebody of the right of preemption, he has the right to play a trick
to render the preemption invalid. And that is by giving the house to the buyer
as a present and marking its boundaries and giving it to him. The buyer then
gives the seller one-thousand Dirham as compensation in which case the preemptor
loses his right of preemption."
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid: Abu Rafi' said that Sa'd offered him four
hundred Mithqal of gold for a house. Abu Rafi ' said, "If I had not heard
Allah's Apostle saying, 'A neighbor has more right to be taken care of by his
neighbor,' then I would not have given it to you." Some people said, "If one has
bought a portion of a house and wants to cancel the right of preemption, he may
give it as a present to his little son and he will not be obliged to take an
oath."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 108:
Narrated Abu Humaid As-Sa'idi:
Allah's Apostle appointed a man called Ibn Al-Lutabiyya to collect the Zakat
from Bani Sulaim's tribe. When he returned, the Prophet called him to account.
He said (to the Prophet, 'This is your money, and this has been given to me as a
gift." On that, Allah's Apostle said, "Why didn't you stay in your father's and
mother's house to see whether you will be given gifts or not if you are telling
the truth?" Then the Prophet addressed us, and after praising and glorifying
Allah, he said: "Amma Ba'du", I employ a man from among you to manage some
affair of what Allah has put under my custody, and then he comes to me and says,
'This is your money and this has been given to me as a gift. Why didn't he stay
in his father's and mother's home to see whether he will be given gifts or not?
By Allah, not anyone of you takes a thing unlawfully but he will meet Allah on
the Day of Resurrection, carrying that thing. I do not want to see any of you
carrying a grunting camel or a mooing cow or a bleating sheep on meeting Allah."
Then the Prophet raised both his hands till the whiteness of his armpits became
visible, and he said, "O Allah! Haven't I have conveyed (Your Message)?" The
narrator added: My eyes witnessed and my ears heard (that Hadith).
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 109:
Narrated Abu Rafi':
The Prophet said, "The neighbor has more right to be taken care of by his
neighbor (than anyone else)." Some men said, "If one wants to buy a house for
20,000 Dirhams then there is no harm to play a trick to deprive somebody of
preemption by buying it (just on paper) with 20,000 Dirhams but paying to the
seller only 9,999 Dirhams in cash and then agree with the seller to pay only one
Dinar in cash for the rest of the price (i.e. 10,001 Dirhams). If the preemptor
offers 20,000 Dirhams for the house, he can buy it otherwise he has no right to
buy it (by this trick he got out of preemption). If the house proves to belong
to somebody else other than the seller, the buyer should take back from the
seller what he has paid, i.e., 9,999 Dirhams and one Dinar, because if the house
proves to belong to somebody else, so the whole bargain (deal) is unlawful. If
the buyer finds a defect in the house and it does not belong to somebody other
than the seller, the buyer may return it and receive 20,000 Dirhams (instead of
9999 Dirham plus one Dinar) which he actually paid.' Abu 'Abdullah said, "So
that man allows (some people) the playing of tricks amongst the Muslims
(although) the Prophet said, 'In dealing with Muslims one should not sell them
sick (animals) or bad things or stolen things."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 110:
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid:
Abu Rafi' sold a house to Sa'd bin Malik for four-hundred Mithqal of gold,
and said, "If I had not heard the Prophet saying, 'The neighbor has more right
to be taken care of by his neighbor (than anyone else),' then I would not have
sold it to you."
