When Abdullah (my father) died, he left behind children and debts. I asked the lenders to put down some of his debt, but they refused, so I went to the Prophet (SAW) to intercede with them, yet they refused. The Prophet (SAW) said (to me), "Classify your dates into their different kinds: Adhq bin Zaid (inferior dates), Layyin and Ajwa (excellent dates), each kind separately and call all the creditors and wait till I come to you." I did so and the Prophet (SAW) came and sat beside the dates and started measuring to each his due till he paid them fully, and the amount of dates remained as it was before, as if he had not touched them. (On another occasion) I took part in one of Ghazawat among with the Prophet and I was riding one of our camels. The camel got tired and was lagging behind the others. The Prophet hit it on its back. He said, "Sell it to me, and you have the right to ride it till Medina.'' When we approached Medina, I took the permission from the Prophet to go to my house, saying, "O Allah's Apostle! I have newly married." The Prophet asked, "Have you married a virgin or a matron (a widow or divorcee)?" I said, "I have married a matron, as 'Abdullah (my father) died and left behind daughters small in their ages, so I married a matron who may teach them and bring them up with good manners." The Prophet then said (to me), "Go to your family." When I went there and told my maternal uncle about the selling of the camel, he admonished me for it. On that I told him about its slowness and exhaustion and about what the Prophet had done to the camel and his hitting it. When the Prophet arrived, I went to him with the camel in the morning and he gave me its price, the camel itself, and my share from the war booty as he gave the other people.

The Prophet (SAW) said, "Allah has forbidden for you, (1) to be undutiful to your mothers, (2) to bury your daughters alive, (3) to not to pay the rights of the others (e.g. charity, etc.) and (4) to beg of men (begging). And Allah has hated for you (1) Qil and Qal (useless talk, or that you talk too much about others), (2) to ask too many questions, (in disputed religious matters) and (3) to waste the wealth (by extravagance with lack of wisdom and thinking).

I heard Allah's Apostle (SAW) saying, "Everyone of you is a guardian, and responsible for what is in his custody. The ruler is a guardian of his subjects and responsible for them; a husband is a guardian of his family and is responsible for it; a lady is a guardian of her husband's house and is responsible for it, and a servant is a guardian of his master's property and is responsible for it." I heard that from Allah's Apostle (SAW) and I think that the Prophet (SAW) also said, "A man is a guardian of is father's property and is responsible for it, so all of you are guardians and responsible for your wards and things under your care."

I heard a man reciting a verse (of the Holy Quraan) but I had heard the Prophet (SAW) reciting it differently. So, I caught hold of the man by the hand and took him to Allah's Apostle (SAW) who said, "Both of you are right." Shu'ba, the sub-narrator said, "I think he said to them, "Don't differ, for the nations before you differed and perished (because of their differences)."

Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, "Whoever takes a false oath so as to take the property of a Muslim (illegally) will meet Allah while He will be angry with him." Al-Ashath said: By Allah, that saying concerned me. I had common land with a Jew, and the Jew later on denied my ownership, so I took him to the Prophet (SAW) who asked me whether I had a proof of my ownership. When I replied in the negative, the Prophet (SAW) asked the Jew to take an oath. I said, "O Allah's Apostle (SAW)! He will take an oath and deprive me of my property." So, Allah revealed the following verse: "Verily! Those who purchase a little gain at the cost of Allah's covenant and their oaths." (3.77)

Kab demanded his debt back from Ibn Abi Hadrad in the Mosque and their voices grew louder till Allah's Apostle (SAW) heard them while he was in his house. He came out to them raising the curtain of his room and addressed Kab, "O Kab!" Kab replied, "Labaik, O Allah's Apostle (SAW)." (He said to him), "Reduce your debt to one half," gesturing with his hand. Kab said, "I have done so, O Allah's Apostle (SAW)!" On that the Prophet (SAW) said to Ibn Abi Hadrad, "Get up and repay the debt, to him."

Abd bin Zama and Sad bin Abi Waqqas carried the case of their claim of the (ownership) of the son of a slave-qirl of Zama before the Prophet (SAW). Sad said, "O Allah's Apostle (SAW)! My brother, before his death, told me that when I would return (to Makkah), I should search for the son of the slave-girl of Zama and take him into my custody as he was his son." 'Abd bin Zama said, 'the is my brother and the son of the slave-girl of my father, and was born or my father's bed." The Prophet (SAW) noticed a resemblance between Utba and the boy but he said, "O 'Abd bin Zama! You will get this boy, as the son goes to the owner of the bed. You, Sauda, screen yourself from the boy."

Two persons, a Muslim and a Jew, quarrelled. The Muslim said, "By Him Who gave Muhammad superiority over all the people! The Jew said, "By Him Who gave Moses superiority over all the people!" At that the Muslim raised his hand and slapped the Jew on the face. The Jew went to the Prophet (SAW) and informed him of what had happened between him and the Muslim. The Prophet (SAW) sent for the Muslim and asked him about it. The Muslim informed him of the event. The Prophet (SAW) said, "Do not give me superiority over Moses, for on the Day of Resurrection all the people will fall unconscious and I will be one of them, but I will. be the first to gain consciousness, and will see Moses standing and holding the side of the Throne (of Allah). I will not know whether (Moses) has also fallen unconscious and got up before me, or Allah has exempted him from that stroke."

While Allah's Apostle (SAW) was sitting, a Jew came and said, "O Abul Qasim! One of your companions has slapped me on my face." The Prophet (SAW) asked who that was. He replied that he was one of the Ansar. The Prophet (SAW) sent for him, and on his arrival, he asked him whether he had beaten the Jew. He (replied in the affirmative and) said, "I heard him taking an oath in the market saying, 'By Him Who gave Musa (Moses) superiority over all the human beings.' I said, 'O wicked man! (Has Allah given Musa superiority) even over Muhammad (SAW) I became furious and slapped him over his face." The Prophet (SAW) said, "Do not give a prophet superiority over another, for on the Day of Resurrection all the people will fall unconscious and I will be the first to emerge from the earth, and will see Musa (Moses) standing and holding one of the legs of the Throne. I will not know whether Musa (Moses) has fallen unconscious or the first unconsciousness was sufficient for him."
