Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Marwan
ibn al-Hakam wrote to Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan that a madman was brought
to him who had killed a man. Muawiya wrote to him, "Tie him up and do
not inflict any retaliation on him. There is no retaliation against a
madman."
Malik said about an adult and a child when they
murder a man together, "The adult is killed and the child pays half
the full blood-money."
Malik said, "It is like that with a
freeman and a slave when they murder a slave. The slave is killed and
the freeman pays half of his value."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Irak ibn
Malik and Sulayman ibn Yasar that a man of the Banu Sad ibn Layth was
running a horse and it trod on the finger of a man from the Juhayna
tribe. It bled profusely, and he died. Umar ibn al-Khattab said to
those against whom the claim was made. "Do you swear by Allah with
fifty oaths that he did not die of it?" They refused and stopped
themselves from doing it. He said to the others, "Will you take an
oath?" They refused, so Umar ibn al-Khattab gave a judgement that the
Banu Sad had to pay half the full blood-money.
Malik said,
"One does not act on this."
Yahya related to me from Malik
that Ibn Shihab, Sulayman ibn Yasar, and Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman
said, "The blood-money of manslaughter is twenty yearlings, twenty
two-year-olds, twenty male two-year-olds, twenty four-year-olds, and
twenty five-year-olds."
Malik said, "The generally agreed on
way with us is that there is no retaliation against children. Their
intention is accidental. The hudud are not obliged for them if they
have not yet reached puberty. If a child kills someone it is only
accidentally. Had a child and an adult killed a free man accidentally,
each of them pays half the full blood-money."
Malik said, "A
person who kills someone accidentally pays blood-money with his
property and there is no retaliation against him. That money is like
anything else from the dead man's property and his debt is paid with
it and he is allowed to make a bequest from it. If he has a total
property of which the blood-money is a third and then the blood-money
is relinquished, that is permitted to him. If all the property he has
is his blood-money, he is permitted to relinquish a third of it and to
make that a bequest."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn
al-Musayyab said, "The blood-money for a woman is the same as for a
man up to one third of the blood-money. Her finger is like his finger,
her tooth is like his tooth, her injury which lays bare the bone is
like his, and her head wound which splinters the bone is like his."
Yahya related to me from Malik that Ibn Shihab and also Urwa
ibn az-Zubayr said the same as Said ibn al-Musayyab said about a
woman. Her blood-money from a man is the same up to a third of the
blood-money of a man. If what she is owed exceeds a third of the
blood-money of the man, she is given up to half of the blood-money of
a man.
Malik said, "The explanation of that is that she has
blood-money for a head wound that lays bare the bone and one that
splinters the bone and for what is less than the brain wound and the
belly wound and the like of that of those which obliges a third of the
blood-money or more. If the amount owed her exceeds that, her blood-
money in that is half of the blood-money of a man."
Yahya
related to me from Malik that he heard Ibn Shihab say, "The precedent
of the sunna when a man injures a woman is that he must pay the blood-
money for that injury and there is no retaliation against him."
Malik said, "That is an accidental injury, when a man strikes a
woman and hits with a blow what he did not intend, for instance, if he
struck her with a whip and cut her eye open and the like of that."
Malik said about a woman who has a husband and children who
are not from her paternal relatives or her people, that since he is
from another tribe, there is no blood-money against her husband for
her criminal action, nor any against her children if they are not from
her people, nor any against her maternal brothers when they are not
from her paternal relations or her people. These are entitled to her
inheritance but only the paternal relations have paid blood-money from
since the time of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace. Until today it is like that with the mawla of a
woman. The inheritance they leave goes to the children of the woman
even if they are not from her tribe, but the blood-money of the
criminal act of the mawla is only against her tribe."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Abu Salama
ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf from Abu Hurayra that a woman from the
Hudhayl tribe threw a stone at a woman from the same tribe, and she
had a miscarriage. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, gave a judgement that a slave or slave-girl of fair
complexion and excellence should be given to her.

Chapter 43: Blood-Money - كتاب العقول
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَضَى فِي الْجَنِينَ يُقْتَلُ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ بِغُرَّةٍ عَبْدٍ أَوْ وَلِيدَةٍ فَقَالَ الَّذِي قُضِيَ عَلَيْهِ كَيْفَ أَغْرَمُ مَا لاَ شَرِبَ وَلاَ أَكَلْ وَلاَ نَطَقَ وَلاَ اسْتَهَلّ وَمِثْلُ ذَلِكَ بَطَلْ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" إِنَّمَا هَذَا مِنْ إِخْوَانِ الْكُهَّانِ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al-
Musayyab that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, gave a judgement that the compensation for a foetus killed
in its mother's womb was a slave or slave-girl of fair complexion and
excellence. The one against whom the judgement was given said, "Why
should I pay damages for that which did not drink or eat or speak or
make any cry. The like of that is nothing." The Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "This is only one of
the brothers of the diviners." He disapproved of the rhyming speech of
the man's declaration.
Yahya related to me from Malik that
Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman said, "The slave of fair complexion and
excellence is estimated at fifty dinars or six hundred dirhams. The
blood-money of a free muslim woman is five hundred dinars or six
thousand dirhams."
Malik said, "The blood-money of the foetus
of a free woman is a tenth of her blood-money. The tenth is fifty
dinars or six hundred dirhams."
Malik said, "I have not heard
anyone dispute that there is no slave in compensation for the foetus
until it leaves its mother's womb and falls still-born from her womb .
"
Malik said, "I heard that if the foetus comes out of its
mother's womb alive and then dies, the full blood-money is due for
it."
Malik said, "The foetus is not alive unless it cries at
birth. If it comes out of its mother's womb and cries out and then
dies, the complete blood-money is due for it. We think that the slave-
girl's foetus has a tenth of the price of the slave-girl."
Malik said, "When a woman murders a man or woman, and the murderess is
pregnant, retaliation is not taken against her until she has given
birth. If a woman who is pregnant is killed intentionally or
unintentionally, the one who killed her is not obliged to pay anything
for her foetus. If she is murdered, then the one who killed her is
killed and there is no blood-money for her foetus. If she is killed
accidentally, the tribe obliged to pay on behalf of her killer pays
her blood-money, and there is no blood-money for the foetus."
Yahya related to me, "Malik was asked about the foetus of the
christian or jewish woman which was aborted. He said, 'I think that
there is a tenth of the blood-money of the mother for it.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Said ibn al-
Musayyab used to say, "The full blood-money is payable for cutting off
both lips, but when the lower one only is cut off, two-thirds of the
blood-money is due for it."
Yahya related to me from Malik
that he asked Ibn Shihab about the one-eyed man who gouged out the eye
of a healthy person. Ibn Shihab said, "If the healthy person wants to
take retaliation from him, he can have his retaliation. If he prefers,
he has blood-money of one thousand dinars, twelve thousand dirhams."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard that full blood-
money was payable for both of a pair of anything in a man that
occurred in pairs, and the tongue had full blood-money. The ears, when
their hearing departed, had full blood-money, whether or not they were
cut off, and a man's penis had full blood-money and the testicles had
full blood-money.
Yahya related to me from Malik that he
heard that the breasts of a woman had full blood-money.
Malik
said, "The least of that are the eyebrows and a man's breasts."
Malik said, "What is done in our community when a man is injured
in his extremities to an extent that obliges payment of more than the
amount of his full blood-money, is that it is his right. If his hands,
feet, and eyes are all injured, he has three full blood-moneys."
Malik said about the sound eye of a one-eyed man when it is
accidentally gouged out, "The full blood-money is payable for it."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Sulayman
ibn Yasar that Zayd ibn Thabit used to say, "When the eye remains but
the sight is lost, one hundred dinars are payable for it."
Yahya said, "Malik was asked about cutting off the lower lid of the
eye and the bone around the eye. He said, 'There is only ijtihad in
that unless the vision of the eye is impaired. He is entitled to an
amount that is compatible to the extent the vision of the eye has been
impaired."
Yahya said that Malik said, "What is done in our
community about removing the bad eye of a one-eyed man when it has
already been blinded and still remains there in its place and the
paralyzed hand when it is cut off, is that there is only ijtihad in
that, and there is no prescribed blood-money."
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said heard Sulayman
ibn Yasar mention that a face wound in which the bone was bared was
like a head wound in which the bone was bared, unless the face was
scarred by the wound. Then the blood-money is increased by one half of
the blood-money of the head wound in which the skin was bared so that
seventy five dinars are payable for it.
Malik said, "What is
done in our community is that the head wound with splinters has
fifteen camels." He explained, "The head wound with splinters is that
from which pieces of bone fly off and which does not reach the brain.
It can be in the head or the face."
Malik said, "The
generally agreed on way of doing things in our community, is that
there is no retaliation for a wound to the brain or a belly wound, and
Ibn Shihab has said, 'There is no retaliation for a wound to the
brain.' "
Malik explained, "The wound to the brain is what
pierces the bones to the brain. This type of wound only occurs in the
head. It is that which reaches the brain when the bones are pierced."
Malik said, "What is done in our community is that there is
no blood-money paid on any head wound less than one which lays bare
the skull. Blood-money is payable only for the head wound that bares
the bone and what is worse than that. That is because the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, stopped at the head
wound which bared the bone in his letter to Amr ibn Hazm. He made it
five camels. The imams, past and present, have not made any blood-
money payable for injuries less than the head wound which bares the
bone."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said,
that Said ibn al-Musayyab said, "For every piercing wound in any of
the organs or limbs of the body, one third of the blood-money of that
limb is payable."
Malik related to me, "Ibn Shihab did not
think and nor do I, that there is a generally agreed on way of doing
things regarding a piercing wound in any of the organs or limbs of the
body, but I think that there is ijtihad in the case. The imam uses
ijtihad in it, and there is no generally agreed on way of doing things
in our community about it."
Malik said, "What is done in our
community about the wound to the brain and the wound which splinters
the bone, and the wound that bares the bone is that they apply only to
the head and face. Whatever of that occurs in the body only has
ijtihad in it."
Malik said, "I do not think the lower jaw and
the nose are part of the head in their injury because they are
separate bones, and except for them the head is one bone."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman that
Abdullah ibn az-Zubayr allowed retaliation for a head wound which
splintered the bone.
USC-MSA web (English) reference : Book 43, Hadith 6
Hadith 515780
Chapter 43: Blood-Money - كتاب العقول
ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman said, "I asked Said ibn al Musayyab, 'How
much for the finger of a woman?' He said, 'Ten camels' I said, 'How
much for two fingers?' He said, 'Twenty camels.' I said, 'How much for
three?' He said, 'Thirty camels.' I said, 'How much for four?' He
said, 'Twenty camels.' I said, 'When her wound is greater and her
affliction stronger, is her blood-money then less?' He said, 'Are you
an Iraqi?' I said, 'Rather, I am a scholar who seeks to verify things,
or an ignorant man who seeks to learn.' Said said, 'It is the sunna,
my nephew.' "
Malik said, "What is done in our community
about all the fingers of the hand being cut off is that its blood-
money is complete. That is because when five fingers are cut, their
blood-money is the blood-money of the hand:
fifty camels. Each finger
has ten camels."
Malik said, "The reckoning of the fingers is
thirty-three dinars for each fingertip, and that is three and a third
shares of camels."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Muslim
ibn Jundub from Aslam, the mawla of Umar ibn al-Khattab that Umar ibn
al-Khattab decided on a camel for a molar, a camel for a collar-bone,
and a camel for a rib.
Yahya related to me from Malik that
Yahya ibn Said heard Said ibn al-Musayyab say, ''Umar ibn al-Khattab
decided on a camel for each molar, and Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan decided
on five camels for each molar."
Said ibn al-Musayyab said,
"The blood-money is less in the judgement of Umar ibn al-Khattab and
more in the judgement of Muawiya. Had it been me, I would have made it
two camels for each molar. That is the fair blood-money, and every one
who strives with ijtihad is rewarded."
Yahya related to me
from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn al-Musayyab used to say,'
'When a tooth is struck and becomes black, there is complete blood-
money for it. If it falls out after it becomes black, there is also
the complete blood-money for it."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Da'ud ibn al-Husayn that Abu
Ghatafan ibn Tarif al-Murri informed him that Marwan ibn al-Hakam sent
him to Abdullah ibn Abbas to ask him what there was for the molar.
Abdullah ibn Abbas said, "There are five camels for it." He said,
"Marwan sent me back again to Abdullah ibn Abbas.'' He said, "Do you
make front teeth like molars?" Abdullah ibn Abbas said, "It is enough
that you take the fingers as the example for that, their blood-moneys
being all the same."
Yahya related to me from Malik from
Hisham ibn Urwa that his father made all the teeth the same in the
blood-money and did not prefer any kind over others.
Malik
said, "What is done in our community is that the front teeth, molars,
and eye-teeth have the same blood-money. That is because the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'The tooth
has five camels.' The molar is one of the teeth and he did not prefer
any kind over the others."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Said ibn
al-Musayyab and Sulayman ibn Yasar said, "The head wound of the slave
in which the bone is bared is a twentieth of his price."
Malik related to me that he had heard that Marwan ibn al-Hakam gave a
decision about a slave who was injured that the person who injured him
had to pay what he had diminished of the value of the slave.
Malik said, "What is done in our community is that for the head wound
of a slave that bares the bone, there is a twentieth of his price. The
head wound which splinters the bone is three twentieths of his price.
Both the wound to the brain and the belly wound are a third of his
price. Besides these four, any other types of injury that decrease the
price of the slave are considered after the slave is better and well,
and one sees what the value of the slave is after his injury and what
his value whole was before he had the injury. Then the one who injured
him pays the difference between the two values."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard that Umar ibn Abd
al-Aziz gave a decision that when a jew or christian was killed, his
blood-money was half the blood-money of a free muslim.
Malik
said, "What is done in our community, is that a muslim is not killed
for a kafir unless the muslim kills him by deceit. Then he is killed
for it."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said
that Sulayman ibn Yasar said, "The blood-money of a magian is eight
hundred dirhams."
Malik said, "This is what is done in our
community."
Malik said, "The blood-monies of the jew,
christian, and magian in their injuries, is according to the injury of
the muslims in their blood-moneys. The head wound is a twentieth of
his full blood-money. The wound that opens the head is a third of his
blood-money. The belly-wound is a third of his blood-money. All their
injuries are according to this calculation."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his
father said, "The tribe is not obliged to pay blood-money for
intentional murder. They pay blood-money for accidental killing."
Yahya related to me from Malik that Ibn Shihab said, "The
precedent of the sunna is that the tribe are not liable for any blood-
money of an intentional killing unless they wish that."
Yahya
related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said the same as that.
Malik said that Ibn Shihab said, "The precedent of the sunna in
the intentional murder is that when the relatives of the murdered
person relinquish retaliation, the blood-money is owed by the murderer
from his own property unless the tribe helps him with it willingly."
Malik said, "What is done in our community is that the blood-
money is not obliged against the tribe until it has reached a third of
the full amount and upwards. Whatever reaches a third is against the
tribe, and whatever is below a third, is against the property of the
one who did the injury."
Malik said, "The way of doing things
about which there is no dispute among us, in the case of someone who
has the blood-money accepted from him in intentional murder or in any
injury in which there is retaliation, is that that blood-money is not
due from the tribe unless they wish it. The blood-money for that is
from the property of the murderer or the injurer if he has property.
If he does not have any property, it is a debt against him, and none
of it is owed by the tribe unless they wish."
Malik said,
"The tribe does not pay blood-money to anyone who injures himself,
intentionally or accidentally. This is the opinion of the people of
fiqh in our community. I have not heard that anyone has made the tribe
liable for any blood-money incurred by intentional acts. Part of what
is well-known of that is that Allah, the Blessed, and the Exalted,
said in His Book, 'Whoever has something pardoned him by his brother,
should follow it with what is accepted and pay it with good will'
(Sura 2 ayat 178) The commentary on that - in our view - and Allah
knows best, is that whoever gives his brother something of the blood-
money, should follow it with what is accepted and pay him with good
will."
Malik spoke about a child who had no property and a
woman who had no property. He said, "When one of them causes an injury
below a third of the blood-money, it is taken on behalf of the child
and woman from their personal property, if they have property from
which it may be taken. If not, the injury which each of them has
caused is a debt against them. The tribe does not have to pay any of
it and the father of a child is not liable for the blood-money of an
injury caused by the child and he is not responsible for it."
Malik said, "The way of doing things in our community about which
there is no dispute, is that when a slave is killed, the value for him
is that of the day on which he was killed. The tribe of the murderer
is not liable for any of the value of the slave, great or small. That
is the responsibility of the one who struck him from his own personal
property as far as it covers. If the value of the slave is the blood-
money or more, that is against him in his property. That is because
the slave is a certain type of goods."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Umar ibn al-
Khattab demanded of the people at Mina, "If anyone has knowledge of
blood-money, let him inform me." Ad-Dahhak ibn Sufyan al-Kilabi stood
up and said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, wrote to me that the wife of Ashyam ad-Dibabi inherited
from the blood-money of her husband." Umar ibn al-Khattab said to him,
"Go into the tent until I come to you." When Umar ibn al-Khattab came
in, ad-Dahhak told him about it and Umar ibn al-Khattab gave a
decision based on that.
Ibn Shihab said, "The killing of
Ashyam was accidental."
Malik related to me from Yahya ibn Said from Amr ibn Shuayb that
a man of the Banu Mudlij called Qatada threw a sword at his son and it
struck his thigh. The wound bled profusely and he died. Suraqa ibn
Jusham came to Umar ibn al-Khattab and mentioned that to him Umar said
to him, "At the watering place of Qudayd count one hundred and twenty
camels and wait until I come to you." When Umar ibn al-Khattab came to
him, he took thirty four-year-old camels, thirty five-year-old camels,
and forty pregnant camels from them. Then he said, "Where is the
brother of the slain man?" He said, "Here." He said, "Take them. The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
'The killer gets nothing.' "
Malik said that he had heard
that Said ibn al-Musayyab and Sulayman ibn Yasar were asked, "Does one
deal more harshly in taking the blood-money in the sacred month?" They
said, "No. But it is increased in it because of violating the month."
It was said to Said, "Does one increase for the wound as one increases
for the life?" He said, "Yes."
Malik added, "I think that
they meant the same as what Umar ibn al-Khattab did with respect to
the blood-money of the Mudliji when he struck his son." (i.e. giving
120 camels instead of 100).
11 Malik related to me from Yahya ibn Said from Urwa ibn az-
Zubayr that a man of the Ansar called Uhayha ibn al-Julah had a young
paternal uncle who was younger than him and who was living with his
maternal uncles. Uhayha took him and killed him. His maternal uncles
said, "We brought him up from a baby to a youth till he stood firm on
his feet, and we have had the right of a man taken from us by his
paternal uncle." Urwa said, "For that reason a killer does not inherit
from the one he killed."
Malik said, "The way of doing things
about which there is no dispute is that the intentional murderer does
not inherit anything of the blood-money of the person he has murdered
or any of his property. He does not stop anyone who has a share of
inheritance from inheriting. The one who kills accidentally does not
inherit anything of the blood-money and there is dispute as to whether
or not he inherits from the dead person's property because there is no
suspicion that he killed him for his inheritance and in order to take
his property. I prefer that he inherit from the dead person's property
and not inherit from the blood-money."

Hadith 515960
Chapter 43: Blood-Money - كتاب العقول
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Said ibn al-
Musayyab and Abu Salama ibn Abd ar-Rahman from Abu Hurayra that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"The wound of an animal is of no account and no compensation is due
for it. The well is of no account and no compensation is due for it.
The mine is of no account and no compensation is due for it and a
fifth is due for buried treasures." (Al-kanz:
see Book 17).
Malik said, "Everyone leading an animal by the halter, driving it, and
riding it is responsible for what the animal strikes unless the animal
kicks out without anything being done to it to make it kick out. Umar
ibn al-Khattab imposed the blood-money on a person who was exercising
his horse."
Malik said, "It is more fitting that a person
leading an animal by the halter, driving it, or riding it incur a loss
than a person who is exercising his horse." (See hadith 4 of this
book).
Malik said, "What is done in our community about a
person who digs a well on a road or ties up an animal or does the like
of that on a road used by muslims, is that since what he has done is
included in that which he is not permitted to do in such a place, he
is liable for whatever injury or other thing arises from that action.
The blood-money of that which is less than a third of the full blood-
money is owed from his own personal property. Whatever reaches a third
or more, is owed by his tribe. Any such things that he does which he
is permitted to do on the muslims' road are something for which he has
no liability or loss. Part of that is a hole which a man digs to
collect rain, and the beast from which the man alights for some need
and leaves standing on the road. There is no penalty against anyone
for this."
Malik spoke about a man who went down a well, and
another man followed behind him, and the lower one pulled the higher
one and they fell into the well and both died He said, "The tribe of
the one who pulled him in is responsible for the blood-money."
Malik spoke about a child whom a man ordered to go down into a
well or to climb a palm tree and he died as a result. He said, "The
one who ordered him is liable for whatever befalls him, be it death or
something else."
Malik said, "The way of doing things in our
community about which there is no dispute is that women and children
are not obliged to pay blood-money together with the tribe in the
blood-moneys which the tribe must pay. The blood-money is only
obligatory for a man who has reached puberty."
Malik said
that the tribe could bind themselves to the blood-money of mawali if
they wished. If they refused, they were people of the diwan or were
cut off from their people. In the time of the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, people paid the blood-money to
each other as well as in the time of Abu Bakr as-Siddiq before there
was a diwan. The diwan was in the time of Umar ibn al-Khattab. No one
other than one's people and the ones holding the wala' paid blood-
money for one because the wala' was not transferable and because the
Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The wala'
belongs to the one who sets free."
Malik said, "The wala' is
an established relationship."
Malik said, "What is done in
our community about animals that are injured is that the person who
causes the injury pays whatever of their value has been diminished."
Malik said about a man condemned to death and one of the
other hudud befell him, "He is not punished for it. That is because
the killing overrides all of that, except for slander. The slander
remains hanging over the one to whom it was said because it will be
said to him, 'Why do you not flog the one who slandered you?' I think
that the condemned man is flogged with the hadd before he is killed,
and then he is killed. I do not think that any retaliation is
inflicted on him for any injury except killing because killing
overrides all of that."
Malik said, "What is done in our
community is that when a murdered person is found among the main body
of a people in a village or other place, the house or place of the
nearest people to him is not responsible. That is because the murdered
person can be slain and then cast at the door of some people to shame
them by it. No one is responsible for the like of that."
Malik said about a group of people who fight with each other and when
the fight is broken up, a man is found dead or wounded, and it is not
known who did it, "The best of what is heard about that is that there
is blood-money for him, and the blood-money is against the people who
argued with him. If the injured or slain person is not from either of
the two parties, his blood-money is against both of the two parties
together."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Said ibn
al-Musayyab that Umar ibn al-Khattab killed five or seven people for
one man whom they had killed secretly by trickery. Umar said, "Had all
the people of Sana joined forces against him, I would have killed them
all."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Abd ar-Rahman
ibn Sad ibn Zurara that he had heard that Hafsa, the wife of the
Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, killed one of her
slave-girls who had used sorcery against her. She was a mudabbara.
Hafsa gave the order, and she was killed.
Malik said, "The
sorcerer is the one who uses sorcery for himself and no one else uses
that for him. It is like the one about whom Allah, the Blessed, the
Exalted, said in His Book, 'They know the one who devotes himself to
it will have no share in the Next World.' (Sura 2 ayat 102) I think
that that person is killed if he does that himself."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Umar ibn Husayn, the mawla of
A'isha bint Qudama, that Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan imposed retaliation
against a man who killed a mawla with a stick and so the mawla's
patron killed the man with a stick.
Malik said, "The
generally agreed on way of doing things in our community about which
there is no dispute is that when a man strikes another man with a
stick or hits him with a rock or intentionally strikes him causing his
death, that is an intentional injury and there is retaliation for it."
Malik said, "Intentional murder with us is that a man
intentionally goes to a man and strikes him until his life goes. Part
of intentional injury also is that a man strikes a man in a quarrel
between them. He leaves him while he is alive, and he bleeds to death
and so dies. There is retaliation for that."
Malik said,
"What is done in our community is that a group of free men are killed
for the intentional murder of one free man, and a group of women for
one woman, and a group of slaves for one slave."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Marwan ibn
al-Hakam wrote to Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan to mention to him that a
drunkard was brought to him who had killed a man. Muawiya wrote to him
to kill him in retaliation for the dead man.
Yahya said that
Malik said, "The best of what I have heard on the interpretation of
this ayat, the word of Allah, the Blessed, the Exalted, 'The free man
for the free man and the slave for the slave - these are men and the
woman for the woman,' (Sura 2 ayat 178) is that retaliation is between
women as it is between men. The free woman is killed for the free
woman as the free man is killed for the free man. The slave-girl is
slain for the slave-girl as the slave is slain for the slave.
Retaliation is between women as it is between men. That is because
Allah, the Blessed, the Exalted, said in His Book, 'We have written
for them in it that it is a life for a life and an eye for an eye, a
nose for a nose, and an ear for an ear, and a tooth for a tooth, and
for wounds there is retaliation.' (Sura 5 ayat 48) Allah, the Blessed,
the Exalted, mentioned that it is a life for a life. It is the life of
a free woman for the life of a free man, and her injury for his
injury."
Malik said about a man who held a man fast for
another man to hit, and he died on the spot, "If he held him and he
thought that he meant to kill him, the two of them are both killed for
him. If he held him and he thought that he meant to beat him as people
sometimes do, and he did not think that he meant to kill him, the
murderer is slain and the one who held him is punished with a very
severe punishment and jailed for a year. There is no killing against
him."
Malik said about a man who murdered a man intentionally
or gouged out his eye intentionally, and then was slain or had his eye
gouged out himself before retaliation was inflicted on him, "There is
no blood-money nor retaliation against him. The right of the one who
was killed or had his eye gouged out goes when the thing which he is
claiming as retaliation goes. It is the same with a man who murders
another man intentionally and then the murderer dies. When the
murderer dies, the one seeking blood-revenge has nothing of blood-
money or anything else. That is by the word of Allah, the Blessed the
Exalted, 'Retaliation is written for you in killing. The free man for
the free man and the slave for the slave.' "
Malik said, "He
only has retaliation against the one who killed him. If the man who
murdered him dies, he has no retaliation or blood-money."
Malik said, "There is no retaliation held against a free man by a
slave for any injury. The slave is killed for the free man when he
intentionally murders him. The free man is not slain for the slave,
even if he murders him intentionally. It is the best of what I have
heard."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he saw whomever he was
satisfied with among the people of knowledge say about a man who
willed that his murderer be pardoned when he murdered him
intentionally, "That is permitted for him. He is more entitled to the
man's blood than any of his relatives after him."
Malik said
about a man who pardoned murder, after he had claimed his right and it
was obliged for him, "There is no blood-money against the murderer
unless the one who pardons him stipulates that when he pardons him."
Malik said about the murderer when he was pardoned, "He is
flogged one hundred lashes and jailed for a year."
Malik
said, "When a man murders intentionally and there is a clear proof of
that, and the murdered man has sons and daughters and the sons pardon
and the daughters refuse to pardon, the pardon of the sons is
permitted in opposition to the daughters and there is no authority for
the daughters with the sons in demanding blood and pardoning."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from Sulayman ibn
Yasar that a slave was set free by one of the people on hajj and his
master had abandoned the right to inherit from him. The ex-slave then
killed a man from the Banu A'idh tribe. An A'idhi, the father of the
slain man came to Umar ibn al-Khattab seeking the blood-money of his
son. Umar said, "He has no blood-money." The A'idhi said, "What would
you think if it had been my son who killed him?" Umar said, "Then you
would pay his blood-money." He said, "He is then like the black and
white Arqam snake. If it is left, it devours and if it is killed, it
takes revenge."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Layla ibn Abdullah ibn
Abd ar-Rahman ibn Sahl from Sahl ibn Abi Hathma that some of the great
men of his people informed him that Abdullah ibn Sahl and Muhayyisa
went out to Khaybar because extreme poverty had overtaken them.
Muhayyisa returned and said that Abdullah ibn Sahl had been killed and
thrown in a shallow well or spring. The jews came and he said, "By
Allah! You have killed him." They said, "By Allah! We have not killed
him!" Then he made for his people and mentioned that to them. Then he,
his brother Huwayyisa, who was older than him, and Abd ar-Rahman, set
out. Muhayyisa began to speak, as he had been at Khaybar. The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to
him, "The greater first, the greater first," meaning in age. So
Huwayyisa spoke and then Muhayyisa spoke. The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Either they pay your
companion's blood-money or we will declare war against them." The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, wrote
that to them and they wrote, "By Allah, we did not kill him!" The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to
Huwayyisa, Muhayyisa, and Abd ar-Rahman, "Do you swear and claim the
blood of your companion?" They said, "No." He said, "Shall the jews
swear to you?" They said, "But they are not muslims." The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, gave blood-money from
his own property, and sent them one hundred camels to their house.
Sahl added, "A red camel among them kicked me."
Yahya said from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Bushayr ibn Yasar
informed him that Abdullah ibn Sahl al-Ansari and Muhayyisa ibn Masud
went out to Khaybar, and they separated on their various businesses
and Abdullah ibn Sahl was killed. Muhayyisa, and his brother Huwayyisa
and Abd ar-Rahman ibn Sahl went to the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, and Abd ar-Rahman began to speak before his
brother. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "The older first, the older first.
Therefore
Huwayyisa and then Muhayyisa spoke and mentioned the affair of
Abdullah ibn Sahl. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said to them, "Do you swear with fifty oaths and
claim the blood-money of your companion or the life of the murderer?"
They said, "Messenger of Allah, we did not see it and we were not
present." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "Will you acquit the jews for fifty oaths?' They said,
"Messenger of Allah, how can we accept the oaths of a people who are
kafirun?"
Yahya ibn Said said, "Bushayr ibn Yasar claimed
that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
paid the blood-money from his own property."
Malik said, "The
generally agreed on way of doing things in our community and that
which I heard from whoever I am content with, concerning the oath of
qasama, and upon which the past and present imams agree, is that those
who claim revenge begin with the oaths and swear. The oath for revenge
is only obligatory in two situations. Either the slain person says,
'My blood is against so-and-so,' or the relatives entitled to the
blood bring a partial proof of it that is not irrefutable against the
one who is the object of the blood-claim. This obliges taking an oath
on the part of those who claim the blood against those who are the
object of the blood-claim. With us, swearing is only obliged in these
two situations."
Malik said, "That is the sunna in which
there is no dispute with us and which is still the behaviour of the
people. The people who claim blood begin the swearings, whether it is
an intentional killing or an accident."
Malik said, "The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, began
with Banu Harith in the case of the killing of their kinsman murdered
at Khaybar."
Malik said, "If those who make the claim swear,
they deserve the blood of their kinsman and whoever they swear against
is slain. Only one man can be killed in the qasama. Two cannot be
killed in it. Fifty men from the blood-relatives must swear fifty
oaths. If their number is less or some of them draw back, they can
repeat their oaths, unless one of the relatives of the murdered man
who deserves blood and who is permitted to pardon it, draws back. If
one of these draws back, there is no way to revenge."
Yahya
said that Malik said, "The oaths can be made by those of them who
remain if one of them draws back who is not permitted to pardon. If
one of the blood-relatives draws back who is permitted to pardon, even
if he is only one, more oaths can not be made after that by the blood-
relatives. If that occurs, the oaths can be on behalf of the one
against whom the claim is made. So fifty of the men of his people
swear fifty oaths. If there are not fifty men, more oaths can be made
by those of them who already swore. If there is only the defendant, he
swears fifty oaths and is acquitted."
Yahya said that Malik
said, "One distinguishes between swearing for blood and oaths for
one's rights. When a man has a money-claim against another man, he
seeks to verify his due. When a man wants to kill another man, he does
not kill him in the midst of people. He keeps to a place away from
people. Had there only been swearing in cases where there is a clear
proof and had one acted in it as one acts about one's rights (i.e.
needing witnesses), the right of blood retribution would have been
lost and people would have been swift to take advantage of it when
they learned of the decision on it. However, the relatives of the
murdered man were allowed to initiate swearing so that people might
restrain themselves from blood and the murderer might beware lest he
was put into a situation like that (i.e. qasama) by the statement of
the murdered man.' "
Yahya said, "Malik said about a people
of whom a certain number are suspected of murder and the relatives of
the murdered man ask them to take oaths and they are numerous, so they
ask that each man swears fifty oaths on his own behalf. The oaths are
not divided out between them according to their number and they are
not acquitted unless each man among them swears fifty oaths on his own
behalf."
Malik said, "This is the best I have heard about the
matter."
He said, "Swearing goes to the paternal relatives of
the slain. They are the blood-relatives who swear against the killer
and by whose swearing he is killed."
Yahya said that Malik said, "The way of doing things in our
community about which there is no dispute is that women do not swear
in the swearing for the intentional act. If the murdered man only has
female relatives, the women have no right to swear for blood and no
pardon in murder."
Yahya said that Malik said about a man who
is murdered, "If the paternal relatives of the murdered man or his
mawali say, 'We swear and we demand our companion's blood,' that is
their right."
Malik said, "If the women want to pardon him,
they cannot do that. The paternal relatives and mawali are entitled to
do that more than them because they are the ones who demand blood and
swear for it."
Malik said, "If the paternal relatives or
mawali pardon after they demand blood and the women refuse and say,
'We will not abandon our right against the murderer of our companion,'
the women are more entitled to that because whoever takes retaliation
is more entitled than the one who leaves it among the women and
paternal relatives when the murder is established and killing
obliged."
Malik said, "At least two claimants must swear in
murder. The oaths are repeated by them until they swear fifty oaths,
then they have the right to blood. That is how things are done in our
community."
Malik said, "When people beat a man and he dies
in their hands, they are all slain for him. If he dies after their
beating, there is swearing. If there is swearing, it is only against
one man and only he is slain. We have never known the swearing to be
against more than one man."
Malik spoke about a slave who had
his hand or foot broken and then the break mended . He said, "The one
who injured him is not obliged to pay anything. If that break causes
him loss or scar, the one who injured him must pay according to what
he diminished of the value of the slave."
Malik said, "What
is done in our community about retaliation between slaves is that it
is like retaliation between freemen. The life of the slave-girl for
the life of the slave, and her injury for his injury. When a slave
intentionally kills a slave, the master of the murdered slave has a
choice. If he wishes, he kills him, and if he wishes, he takes the
blood-money. If he takes the blood-money, he takes the value of his
slave. If the owner of the slave who killed wishes to give the value
of the murdered slave, he does it. If he wishes, he surrenders his
slave. If he surrenders him, he is not obliged to do anything other
than that. When the owner of the murdered slave takes the slave who
murdered and is satisifed with him, he must not kill him. All
retaliations between slaves for cutting off of the hand and foot and
such things are dealt with in the same way as in the murder."
Malik said about a muslim slave who injures a jew or christian, "If
the master of the slave wishes to pay blood-money for him according to
the injury, he does it. Or else he surrenders him and he is sold, and
the jew or christian is given the blood-money of the injury or all the
price of the slave if the blood-money is greater than his price. The
jew or christian is not given a muslim slave."
Yahya said that Malik said, "The way of doing things in our
community about Yahya said that Malik said, "The procedure in swearing
in manslaughter is that those who claim blood swear and it becomes due
by their swearing. They swear fifty oaths, and there is blood-money
for them according to the division of their inheritances. If it is not
possible to divide up the oaths which they swear between them evenly,
one looks to the one who has most of those oaths against him, and that
oath is obliged against him."
Malik said, "If the slain man
only has female heirs, they swear and take the blood-money. If he only
has one male heir, he swears fifty oaths and takes the blood-money.
That is only in the accidental killing, not in the intentional one."
Yahya said that Malik said, "When the relatives of the deceased
accept the blood-money then it is inherited according to the Book of
Allah. Daughters of the dead man inherit and so do sisters, and
whichever women would inherit from him ordinarily.
If the
women do not take all his inheritance, then what remains goes to the
agnatic relations who most deserve to inherit from him in conjunction
with the women."
Malik said, "When one of the heirs of a man
killed by mistake attempts to take his due from the blood-money while
his companions are absent, he may not do that, and he has no right to
any of the blood-money, however large or small, unless the qasama has
been completed by him. If he swears fifty oaths then he has the right
to his portion of the blood-money. That is because the blood-money is
not established as due without there being fifty oaths, and the blood-
money is not established as due unless the responsibility for the
blood is established. If any one of the heirs comes after that he
swears a number of the oaths commensurate with his fraction of the
inheritance and takes his right until all the heirs exact their
complete right. If a maternal uncle comes he has one sixth and must
swear one sixth of the fifty oaths. So whoever swears may take his due
from the blood-money and whoever abstains annuls his right. If one of
the heirs is absent or is a child who has not reached puberty, those
who are present swear fifty oaths and if the one who was absent comes
after that or the child reaches puberty, they swear. and they swear
according to their due of the blood-money and according to their
shares of inheritance from it."
Yahya said that Malik said,
"This is the best I have heard on the matter."
Yahya said that Malik said, "What is done in our community about
slaves is that when a slave is struck intentionally or accidentally
and the master brings a witness, he swears with his witness one oath
and then he has the value of the slave. There is no swearing for
revenge in slaves, accidentally or intentionally, and I have not heard
any of the people of knowledge say that there was."
Malik
said, "If a slave is killed intentionally or accidentally, the master
of the slave who is slain has no swearing or oath. The master cannot
demand his right except with a fair proof or a witness if he swears
with one witness."
Yahya said that Malik said, "This is the
best of what I have heard on the matter.''
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj from
Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "Adam and Musa argued and Adam got the better of
Musa. Musa rebuked Adam, 'You are Adam who led people astray and
brought them out of the Garden.' Adam said to him, 'You are Musa to
whom Allah gave knowledge of everything and whom he chose above people
with His message.' He said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Do you then censure me
for a matter which was decreed for me before I was created?' "
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Abi Unaysa that Abd
al-Hamid ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Zayd ibn al-Khattab informed him from
Muslim ibn Yasar al-Juhani that Umar ibn al-Khattab was asked about
this ayat - "When your Lord took their progeny from the Banu Adam from
their backs and made them testify against themselves. 'Am I not your
Lord?' They said, 'Yes, we bear witness'
Lest you should say
on the Day of Rising, 'We were heedless of that.'" (Sura 7 ayat 172)
Umar ibn al-Khattab said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, being asked about it. The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Allah, the
Blessed, the Exalted, created Adam. Then He stroked his back with His
right hand, and progeny issued from it. He said, "I created these for
the Garden and they will act with the behaviour of the people of the
Garden." Then He stroked his back again and brought forth progeny from
him. He said, "I created these for the Fire and they will act with the
behaviour of the people of the Fire." 'A man said, 'Messenger of
Allah! Then of what value are deeds?' The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, answered, 'When Allah creates a
slave for the Garden, he makes him use the behaviour of the people of
the Garden, so that he dies on one of the actions of the people of the
Garden and by it He brings him into the Garden. When He creates a
slave for the Fire, He makes him use the behaviour of the people of
the Fire, so that he dies on one of the actions of the people of the
Fire, and by it, He brings him into the Fire.' "

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهَا قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فِي الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " بِئْسَ ابْنُ الْعَشِيرَةِ " . ثُمَّ أَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم . قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَلَمْ أَنْشَبْ أَنْ سَمِعْتُ ضَحِكَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَعَهُ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ الرَّجُلُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قُلْتَ فِيهِ مَا قُلْتَ ثُمَّ لَمْ تَنْشَبْ أَنْ ضَحِكْتَ مَعَهُ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنَّ مِنْ شَرِّ النَّاسِ مَنِ اتَّقَاهُ النَّاسُ لِشَرِّهِ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that A'isha, the
wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "A
man asked permission to come in to see the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace. I was with him in the house and
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
'He is an evil member of his tribe.' Then the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, gave him permission."
A'isha continued, "It was not long before I heard the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, laughing with him.
When the man left, I said, 'Messenger of Allah, you said what you said
about him, and then before long you were laughing with him.' The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, replied,
'Among the most evil of people is the one whom people are cautious
with because of his evil.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik from his paternal uncle, Abu
Suhayl ibn Malik from his father that Kab al-Ahbar said, "If you want
to know what a slave has with his Lord, then look at whatever good
praise follows him."
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said, "I have
heard that by his good character a man can reach the degree of the one
who stands in prayer at night and the one who is thirsty from fasting
in the heat of the day."
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said that he
heard Said ibn al-Musayyab say, "Shall I tell you what is better than
much prayer and sadaqa?" They said, "Yes." He said, "Mending discord.
And beware of hatred - it strips you (of your deen)."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that Jabir ibn
Abdullah al-Ansari said, "We went out with the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, in the raid on the Banu Ammar
tribe." Jabir said, "I was resting under a tree when the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came. I said,
'Messenger of Allah; come to the shade.' So the Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, sat down, and I stood up and
went to a sack of ours. I looked in it for something and found a small
cucumber and broke it. Then I brought it to the Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace. He said, 'From where did you
get this?' I said, 'We brought it from Madina, Messenger of Allah.' "
Jabir continued, "We had a friend of ours with us whom we
used to equip to go out to guard our mounts. I gave him what was
necessary and then he turned about to go to the mounts and he was
wearing two threadbare cloaks of his. The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, looked at him and said, 'Does he
have two garments other than these?' I said, 'Yes, Messenger of Allah.
He has two garments in the bag.' I gave them to him. He said, 'Let him
go and put them on.' I let him go to put them on. As he turned to go,
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
exclaimed, 'May Allah strike his neck. Isn't that better for him?' He
said (taking him literally), 'Messenger of Allah, in the way of
Allah.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, 'In the way of Allah.' " Jabir added, "The man was killed
in the way of Allah."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ayyub ibn Abi Tamim that Ibn
Sirin said, ''Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'Allah has been generous to
you, so be generous to yourselves. Let a man wear a combination of his
garments.' "
Yahya said that he heard Malik say, "I disapprove of youths wearing
any gold because I heard that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, forbade wearing gold rings, and I disapprove
of it for males old or young."
Yahya said, "I heard Malik say
about men wearing wraps dyed with safflower in their houses and
courtyards, 'I do not know that any of that is haram but I prefer
other garments than that.' "

hundred years."

How many are dressed in this world and will be naked on the Day of
Rising. Warn the women in their rooms."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj from
Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant

When you take them off, begin with the left foot. The right foot is
the first to be put in the sandal and the last to be taken out."
Yahya related to me from Malik from his paternal uncle Abu Suhayl
ibn Malik from his father that Kab al-Ahbar said to a man who took off
his sandals, "Why have you taken off your sandals? Perhaps you have
interpreted this ayat, 'Remove your sandals. You are in the pure
valley of Tuwa?' (Sura 20 ayat 12) Do you know what the sandals of
Musa were?"
Malik (the father of Abu Suhayl) said, "I do not
know what the man answered." Kab said, "They were made from the skin
of a dead donkey."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj that
Abu Hurayra said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, forbade two sales. Mulamasa, in which a man is
obliged to buy whatever he touches without any choice in the matter,
and munabadha, in which two men throw their garment to each other
without either seeing the other's garment. He also forbade two ways of
dressing. One in which a man sits with his legs drawn up to his chest
wrapped in one garment that does not cover his genitals, and the other
in which a man wraps a single garment over one arm and shoulder
restricting them."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Abdullah ibn Umar
that Umar ibn al-Khattab saw a silk robe at the door of the mosque. He
said, "Messenger of Allah, would you buy this robe and wear it on
jumua and when envoys come to you?" The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, "Only a person who has no portion
in the next world wears this." Then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, was brought some robes of the same
material and gave Umar ibn al-Khattab one of the robes. Umar said,
"Messenger of Allah, do you clothe me in it when you said what you
said about the robe of Utarid?" The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, "I did not give it to you to
wear." Umar gave it to a brother of his in Makka who was still an
idolater.
Yahya related to me from Malik that Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha said, "Anas ibn Malik said, 'I saw Umar ibn al-Khattab when he
was the amir of Madina. Three patches were sewn between his shoulders,
one patched over the other.' ''

حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَيْسَ بِالطَّوِيلِ الْبَائِنِ وَلاَ بِالْقَصِيرِ وَلَيْسَ بِالأَبْيَضِ الأَمْهَقِ وَلاَ بِالآدَمِ وَلاَ بِالْجَعْدِ الْقَطَطِ وَلاَ بِالسَّبِطِ بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَأْسِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً فَأَقَامَ بِمَكَّةَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ وَبِالْمَدِينَةِ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ وَتَوَفَّاهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَى رَأْسِ سِتِّينَ سَنَةً وَلَيْسَ فِي رَأْسِهِ وَلِحْيَتِهِ عِشْرُونَ شَعْرَةً بَيْضَاءَ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
Yahya related to me from Malik that Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman
heard Anas ibn Malik say, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, was not excessively tall or short. He was not
very pallid nor dark. He did not have curly hair or lank hair. Allah
commissioned him at the age of forty. He stayed in Makka ten years and
at Madina for ten years and Allah the Mighty, the Majestic made him
die when he was sixty. There were not twenty white hairs in his hair
or beard, may Allah bless him and grant him peace."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Abdullah ibn Umar
that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
said, "I dreamt at night that I was at the Kaba, and I saw a dark man
like the most handsome of dark men you have ever seen. He had hair
reaching to between his ears and his shoulders like the most excellent
of such hair that you have seen. He had combed his hair, and water was
dripping from it. He was leaning on two men or on the shoulders of two
men doing tawaf around Kaba. I asked, 'Who is this?' It was said, 'al-
Masih ibn Maryam.' Then we were with a man with wiry hair and blind in
his right eye, as if it was a floating grape. I asked 'Who is this?'
It was said to me, 'This is al-Masih ad-Dajjal.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn
al-Musayyub said, "Ibrahim, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
was the first to give hospitality to the guest and the first person to
be circumcised and the first person to trim the moustache and the
first person to see grey hair. He said, 'O Lord! What is this?' Allah
the Blessed, the Exalted, said, 'It is dignity, Ibrahim.' He said,
'Lord, increase me in dignity!' "
Yahya said that he had
heard Malik say, "One takes from the moustache until the edge of the
lip appears, that is the rim. One does not cut if off completely so
that one mutilates oneself."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zubayr from Jabir ibn
Abdullah as-Salami that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, forbade a man to eat with his left hand or walk
in one sandal or wrap a single garment around his drawn-up legs
exposing his genitals.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Abu Bakr ibn
Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn Umar from Abdullah ibn Umar that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"When you eat, eat with your right hand and drink with your right
hand. Shaytan eats with his left hand and drinks with his left hand."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj from
Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "The very poor are not the people who constantly walk
from person to person and are given one or two morsels, and one or two
dates." They said, "Who are the very poor, Messenger of Allah?" He
said, "People who do not find enough for themselves and other people
are not aware of them to give sadaqa to them, and they do not start
begging from other people."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih from his
father from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, gave hospitality to a kafir guest. The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, ordered a
sheep to be brought for him and it was milked. He drank its milk. Then
another came, and he drank it. Then another came and he drank it until
he had drunk the milk of seven sheep. In the morning he became muslim,
and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
ordered a sheep for him. It was milked and he drank its milk. Then he
ordered another for him and he could not finish it. The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The mumin
drinks in one intestine, and the kafir drinks in seven intestines."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Zayd ibn Abdullah
ibn Umar ibn al-Khattab from Abdullah ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Abi
Bakras-Siddiq from Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, "A person who drinks from a
silver vessel brings the fire of Jahannam into his belly."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ayyub ibn Habib, the mawla of
Sad ibn Abi Waqqas that Abu'l-Muthanna al-Juhani said, "I was with
Marwan ibn al-Hakam and Abu Said al-Khudri came to him. Marwan ibn al-
Hakam said to him, 'Have you heard that the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade blowing into drinks?' Abu
Said said to him, 'Yes.' A man said to him, 'Messenger of Allah, I am
not quenched from one breath.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said to him, 'Remove the cup from your mouth
and then breathe.' He said, 'Sometimes I see something floating in
it?' He said, 'Then pour it out.'"
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that A'isha, umm
al-muminin and Sad ibn Abi Waqqas did not see any harm in a man
drinking while standing.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Anas ibn
Malik that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, was brought some milk which was mixed with well-water. There
was a Bedouin at his right side and Abu Bakr as-Siddiq on his left. He
drank and then gave it to the Bedouin and said, "The right-hand to the
right-hand."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Hazim ibn Dinar from Sahl
ibn Sad al-Ansari that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, was brought a drink and he drank some of it. There
was a boy at his right and some old men on his left. He said to the
boy, "Will you give me permission to give it to these people?" The boy
said, "No, Messenger of Allah, I will not prefer anyone to get my
portion from you." He said, "So the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, placed it in his hand."

Yahya related to me from Malik that Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha heard Anas ibn Malik say that Abu Talha had said to Umm Sulaym,
"I have just been listening to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, and his voice was very weak. I recognised
hunger in it, so, do you have anything?" She replied, "Yes," and
brought out some barley loaves. She took her long head scarf and
wrapped up the bread with part of it and put it into my (Anas's) hand
and gave me part of it to wear. Then she sent me to the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace."
Anas
continued, "I took it, and I found the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, sitting in the mosque with some people.
I watched them. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, 'Did Abu Talha send you?' I replied, 'Yes.' He said,
'For food?' I said, 'Yes.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said to those with him, 'Let us go.' He set off
and I went among them until I came to Abu Talha and told him. Abu
Talha said, 'Umm Sulaym! The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, has brought people and we have no food. What
shall we give them to eat?' She said, 'Allah and His Messenger know
best.' "
Anas continued, "Abu Talha went out and met the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
approached with Abu Talha until they entered. The Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Come now, Umm Sulaym,
what have you got?' She brought out bread. The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, ordered it to be broken into
pieces, and Umm Sulaym squeezed out onto it a container of clarified
butter which she had seasoned. Then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said whatever Allah wished him to say,
and said, 'Will you give permission for ten of them to come in?' He
gave them permission, and they ate until they were full and then left.
He said, 'Give permission to ten more.' He gave them permission, and
they ate until they were full and left. Then he said, 'Give permission
to ten more.' He gave them permission and they ate until they were
full and left. Then he said, 'Give permission to ten more.' He gave
permission and they ate until they were full and left. There were
seventy or eighty men."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj from

three is enough for four."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zubayr al-Makki from
Jabir ibn Abdullah that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, "Lock the door, tie the waterskin, turn the
vessel over or cover it, and put out the lamp. Shaytan does not open a
locked door or untie a tied knot, or uncover a vessel. A mouse may set
fire to people's houses about them."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Said ibn Abi Said al-Maqburi
from Abu Shurayh al-Kabi that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever believes in Allah and the Last
Day should speak good or be silent. Whoever believes in Allah and the
Last Day should be generous to his neighbour. Whoever believes in
Allah and the Last Day, should be generous to his guest. His welcome
is for a day and a night, and his hospitality is for three days.
Whatever is more than that is sadaqa. It is not halal for a guest to
stay with a man until he becomes a burden."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Sumayy, the mawla of Abu Bakr
from Abu Salih as-Samman from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "A man was walking on a
road when he became very thirsty. He found a well and went into it and
drank and came out. There was a dog panting and eating earth out of
thirst. The man said, 'This dog has become as thirsty as I was.' He
went down into the well and filled his shoe and then held it in his
mouth until he climbed out and gave the dog water to drink. Allah
thanked him for it and forgave him." They said, "Messenger of Allah,
do we have a reward for taking care of beasts?" He said, "There is a
reward for every one with a moist liver."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Wahb ibn Kaysan that Jabir
ibn Abdullah said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, sent a delegation to the coast. Abu Ubayda ibn al-
Jarrah was in command of them. There were 300 people and I was among
them. We went out until we had gone part of the way and our provisions
were finished. Abu Ubayda ordered that the provisions of the army be
gathered up and they amounted to two containers of dates. He used to
give us a little provision from it each day until it was finished, and
we used to have only a single date each. I said, 'What use is one
date?' He said, 'We will certainly feel its loss when they are
finished.' "
Jabir continued, "Then we reached the sea and
there was a fish like a small mountain. The army ate from it for
eighteen nights. Then Abu Ubayda ordered two ribs from it to be set
up. Then he commanded that a camel be ridden underneath them and it
did not touch them."

Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard that the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, entered the mosque
and found Abu Bakr as-Siddiq and Umar ibn al-Khattab there. He
questioned them and they said, "Hunger has driven us out." The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"And hunger has brought me out." They went to Abu'l-Haytham ibn at-
Tayyihan al-Ansari. He ordered that some barley that was in the house
be prepared and he got up to slaughter a sheep for them. The Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Leave the
one with milk." He slaughtered a sheep for them and brought them sweet
water and it was hung on a palm-tree. Then they were brought the food
and ate it and drank the water. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, recited, "Then, on that day, you will
be asked concerning pleasure." (Sura 102 ayat 8).
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Umar ibn
al-Khattab was eating bread with ghee. He summoned one of the desert
people and he began to eat and follow the grease in the dish with a
morsel of bread. Umar said, "It is as if you were poor." He said, "By
Allah. I have not eaten ghee nor have I seen food with it since such-
and-such a time." Umar declared, "I shall not eat clarified butter
until people are given life again like they were first given life,"
(i.e. on the Day of Rising.)
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha that Anas ibn Malik said, "I saw Umar ibn al-Khattab when he was
amir al-muminin being given a sa of dates, and he ate all of them,
even the inferior ones."
Yahya related to me from Malik from
Abdullah ibn Dinar that Abdullah ibn Umar said, ''Umar ibn al-Khattab
was asked about locusts. He said, 'I would like to have a basket of
them, from which we could eat.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Amr ibn Halhala
that Humayd ibn Malik ibn Khu'haym said, "I was sitting with Abu
Hurayra on his land at al-Aqiq. Some people rode out from Madina to
call upon Abu Hurayra. He told me to go to his mother, sending his
greetings and asking her to prepare some food." Humayd continued, "She
set down three loaves on a plate and some oil and salt. Then she put
it on my head and I carried it to them. When I set it before them, Abu
Hurayra said, 'Allah is greater' and added, 'Praise be to Allah who
has filled us with bread after our food had previously been only water
and dates,' as the people did not touch any of the food.
When
they left, he said, 'O son of my brother, be good to your sheep and
wipe the mucus from them and clean their pen. Pray in their quarter
for they are among the animals of the Garden. By He in Whose Hand my
self is, a time is about to come upon people when a small group of
sheep will be more beloved to their owner than the house of Marwan . '

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Nuaym that Wahb ibn
Kaysan said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, was brought food while his stepson Umar ibn Salama was with
him. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
said to him, 'Say "Bismillah," and eat what is in front of you.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said that he
had heard al-Qasim ibn Muhammad say that a man came to Abdullah ibn
Abbas and said to him, "I have an orphan and he has camels. Can I
drink from the camels' milk?" Ibn Abbas said, "If you search for the
lost camels of his and treat the camels' mange and fill in the cracks
in their water basin and give it water on the day it drinks, then
drink it without doing harm to the suckling camels by milking them
excessively."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his
father never brought food or drink, nor even a remedy which he ate or
drank but that he said, "Praise be to Allah who has guided us and fed
us and given us to drink and blessed us. Allah is greater. O Allah! We
have found Your blessing with every evil, give us every good in the
morning and evening. We ask You for its completion and its gratitude.
There is no good except Your good. There is no god other than You, the
God of the salihun and the Lord of the Worlds. Praise be to Allah.
There is no god but Allah. What Allah wills. There is no power except
in Allah. O Allah! Bless us in what You have provided us with and
protect us from the punishment of the Fire!"

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Umar ibn
al-Khattab said, "Beware of meat. It has addictiveness like the
addictiveness of wine."
Yahya related to me from Malik from
Yahya ibn Said that Umar ibn al-Khattab saw Jabir ibn Abdullah
carrying some meat. He said, "What is this?" He said, "Amir al-
muminin. We desired meat and I bought some meat for a dirham." Umar
said, "Does one of you want to fill his belly apart from his neighbour
or nephew? How can you overlook this ayat? 'You squandered your good
things in the life of this world and sought comfort in them.' " (Sura
46 ayat 20).

Yahya related to me from Malik that Muhammad ibn Abi Umama ibn
Sahl ibn Hunayf heard his father say, "My father, Sahl ibn Hunayf did
a ghusl at al-Kharrar. He removed the jubbah he had on while Amir ibn
Rabia was watching, and Sahl was a man with beautiful white skin. Amir
said to him, 'I have never seen anything like what I have seen today,
not even the skin of a virgin.' Sahl fell ill on the spot, and his
condition grew worse. Somebody went to the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, and told him that Sahl was ill,
and could not go with him. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, came to him, and Sahl told him what had happened
with Amir. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, 'Why does one of you kill his brother? Why did you not
say, "May Allah bless you?" (ta baraka-llah) The evil eye is true. Do
wudu from it.' Amir did wudu from it and Sahl went with the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and there was
nothing wrong with him."
Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab that Abu Umama ibn Sahl ibn
Hunayf said, ''Amir ibn Rabia saw Sahl ibn Hunayf doing a ghusl and
said, 'I have not seen the like of what I see today, not even the skin
of a maiden who has never been out of doors.' Sahl fell to the ground.
The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was
approached and it was said, 'Messenger of Allah, can you do anything
about Sahl ibn Hunayf? By Allah, he can not raise his head.' He said,
'Do you suspect anyone of it?' They said, 'We suspect Amir ibn Rabia.'
"
He continued, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, summoned Amir and was furious with him and said,
'Why does one of you kill his brother? Why did you not say, "May Allah
bless you?" Do ghusl for it.' Amir washed his face, hands, elbows,
knees, the end of his feet, and inside his lower garment in a vessel.
Then he poured it over him, and Sahl went off with the people, and
there was nothing wrong with him."

"There is no contagion, no
hama and no serpent in a hungry belly. However, the possessor of sick
livestock must not stop at the same place as the possessor of healthy
livestock, but the possessor of healthy livestock may stop wherever he
wishes."

Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "It

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Bakr ibn Nafi from his
father Nafi from Abdullah ibn Umar that the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, ordered the moustache to be
trimmed and the beard to be left.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Humay ibn Abd
ar-Rahman ibn Awf heard Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan say from the mimbar in
the year that he performed the hajj, holding a lock of hair (i.e. a
hairpiece) which he took from one of his guards, "People of Madina!
Where are your learned men? I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, forbid the like of this, saying, 'The
Banu Israil were destroyed when their women started to use this.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik that Ziyad ibn Sad heard Ibn
Shihab say, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, let his hair hang down his forehead as Allah willed, and
afterwards he parted it."
Malik said, "There is no harm in a
man's looking at the hair of his son's wife or the hair of his wife's
mother."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
disapproved of castration and said, "The completeness of the created
form is in the testicles."

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ
" أَنَا وَكَافِلُ الْيَتِيمِ لَهُ أَوْ لِغَيْرِهِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَهَاتَيْنِ إِذَا اتَّقَى " . وَأَشَارَ بِإِصْبُعَيْهِ الْوُسْطَى وَالَّتِي تَلِي الإِبْهَامَ .
Yahya related to me from Malik that Safwan ibn Sulaym heard that
the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "I and the
one who guards the orphan, whether for himself or for someone else,
will be like these two in the Garden, when he has taqwa," indicating
his middle and index fingers.

حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ الأَنْصَارِيَّ، قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِنَّ لِي جُمَّةً أَفَأُرَجِّلُهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " نَعَمْ وَأَكْرِمْهَا " فَكَانَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ رُبَّمَا دَهَنَهَا فِي الْيَوْمِ مَرَّتَيْنِ لِمَا قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " وَأَكْرِمْهَا " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Abu
Qatada al-Ansari said to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, "I have a lot of hair which comes down to my
shoulders, shall I comb it?'' The Messenger of Allah. may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "Yes, and honour it." Sometimes Abu
Qatada oiled it twice in one day because the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to him. "Honour it."

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، أَنَّ عَطَاءَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَدَخَلَ رَجُلٌ ثَائِرَ الرَّأْسِ وَاللِّحْيَةِ فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِيَدِهِ أَنِ اخْرُجْ كَأَنَّهُ يَعْنِي إِصْلاَحَ شَعَرِ رَأْسِهِ وَلِحْيَتِهِ فَفَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" أَلَيْسَ هَذَا خَيْرًا مِنْ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَحَدُكُمْ ثَائِرَ الرَّأْسِ كَأَنَّهُ شَيْطَانٌ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that Ata ibn
Yasar told him that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, was in the mosque when a man came in with dishevelled
hair and beard. The Messenger of Allah. may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, motioned with his hand that he should be sent out to groom
his hair and beard. The man did so and then returned. The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Isn't this
better than that one of you should come with his head dishevelled, as
if he were a shaytan?"
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said that
Muhammad ibn Ibrahim at-Taymi had informed him that Abu Salama ibn Abd
ar-Rahman said "Abd ar-Rahman ibn al-Aswad ibn Abdal-Yaghuth used to
sit with us and he had a white beard and hair. One day he came to us
and he had dyed them red, and the people said to him, 'This is
better.' He said. 'A'isha the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, sent her slave girl Nukhayla to me yesterday. She
swore that my hair would be dyed and she informed me that Abu Bakr as-
Siddiq used to dye his hair.' "
Yahya said that he heard
Malik say about dyeing the hair black, 'I have not heard anything
certain on that, and other colours than that are preferable to me."
Yahya said, "Not to dye at all is permitted, Allah willing,
and there is no constraint on people concerning it."
Yahya
said that he had heard Malik say, "There is no clear indication in
this hadith that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, did not dye his hair. Had the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, dyed his hair, A'isha would have sent a
message to that effect to Abd ar-Rahman ibn al-Aswad."

Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said that he
had heard that Khalid ibn al-Walid said to the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, "I have nightmares." The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to
him, "Say, 'I seek refuge with the complete words of Allah from His
anger and His punishment and the evil of His slaves, and from the evil
suggestions of the shayatin and from their being present (at death).'

Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said, "When
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was
taken on the Night Journey, he saw an evil jinn seeking him with a
torch of fire. Whenever the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, turned, he saw him. Jibril said to him, 'Shall I
teach you some words to say? When you say them, his torch will be put
out and will fall from him.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, 'Yes, indeed.' Jibril said, 'Say, 'I
seek refuge with the Noble Face of Allah and with the complete words
of Allah which neither the good person nor the corrupt can exceed,
from the evil of what descends from the sky and the evil of what
ascends in it, and from the evil of what is created in the earth and
the evil of what comes out of it, and from the trials of the night and
day, and from the visitations of the night and day, except for one
that knocks with good, O Merciful!" "'

Yahya related to me from Malik from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih from his
father from Abu Hurayra that a man of the Aslam tribe said, "I did not
sleep last night." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said to him, "For what reason?" He said, "A scorpion
bit me." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "Had you said in the evening, 'I seek refuge with the
complete words of Allah from the evil of what He has created, 'it
would not have happened."
Audhu bi kalimati'llahi't-tammati

Yahya related to me from Malik from Summayy, the mawla of Abu
Bakr from al-Qa'qa ibn Hakim that Kab al-Ahbar said, "Had it not been
for some words which I said, the jews would have made me into a
donkey." Someone asked him what they were. He said, "I seek refuge
with the immense Face of Allah - there is nothing greater than it -
and with the complete words of Allah which neither the good person nor
the corrupt can exceed and with all the most beautiful names of Allah,
what I know of them and what I do not know, from the evil of what He
has created and originated and multiplied."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdullah ibn Abd ar-Rahman
ibn Mamar from Abu'l-Hubab Said ibn Yasar that Abu Hurayra said, "The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
'Allah, the Blessed, the Exalted, will say on the Day of Rising,
"Where are those who loved each other for My majesty? Today I will
shade them in My shade on the day when there is no shade except My
shade." "'

Chapter 51: Hair - كتاب الشعر
Yahya related to me from Malik from Khubayb ibn Abd ar-Rahman al-
Ansari from Hafs ibn Asim that either Abu Said al-Khudri or Abu
Hurayra said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, 'There are seven whom Allah will shade in His shade
on the day on which there is no shade except His shade:
a just imam, a
youth who grows up worshipping Allah, a man whose heart is attached to
the mosque when he leaves it until he returns to it, two men who love
each other in Allah and meet for that and part for that, a man who
remembers Allah when he is alone and his eyes overflow with tears, a
man who refuses the approaches of a noble, beautiful woman, saying "I
fear Allah," and a man who gives sadaqa and conceals it so that his
left hand does not know what his right hand gives.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih from his
father from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "If Allah loves a slave, he says to
Jibril, 'I love so-and-so, so love him,' so Jibril loves him and then
calls out to the people of heaven, 'Allah loves so-and-so, so love
him,' and the people of heaven love him, and then acceptance is placed
in the Earth for him." When Allah is angry with a slave, Malik said,
"I consider that he says the like of that about His anger."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Hazim ibn Dinar that Abu Idris
al-Khawlani said, "I entered the Damascus mosque and there was a young
man with a beautiful mouth and white teeth sitting with some people.
When they disagreed about something, they referred it to him and
proceeded from his statement. I inquired about him, and it was said,
'This is Muadh ibn Jabal.' The next day I went to the noon-prayer, and
I found that he had preceded me to the noon prayer and I found him
praying."
Abu Idris continued, "I waited for him until he had
finished the prayer. Then I came to him from in front of him and
greeted him and said, 'By Allah! I love you for Allah!' He said, 'By
Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.'
He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' "
He continued, "He
took me by the upper part of my cloak and pulled me to him and said,
'Rejoice! I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, say, "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, said, 'My love
is obliged for those who love each other in Me, and those who sit with
each other in Me, and those who visit each other in Me, and those who
give to each other generously in Me.' " ' "
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Abdullah
ibn Abbas said, "Equanimity, gentleness, and good behaviour are one
twenty-fifth of prophecy."

" الرُّؤْيَا الْحَسَنَةُ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ الصَّالِحِ جُزْءٌ مِنْ سِتَّةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ " .

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha al-Ansari from Anas ibn Malik that the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The good dream of a man
who is salih is a forty-sixth part of prophecy."
Yahya
related the like of that to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-
Araj from Abu Hurayra from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha from Zufar ibn Sasaca from his father from Abu Hurayra that when
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, left
the morning prayer, he would say, "Has any of you had a dream last
night? All that will remain of prophecy after me will be the true
dream ."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn
Yasar that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "All that will be left of prophecy after me are the
mubashshirat." They said, "What are the mubashshirat, Messenger of
Allah?" He said, "The true dream which a man who is salih sees - or
which is shown to him - is a forty-sixth part of prophecy."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Abu
Salama ibn Abd ar-Rahman said, "I heard Abu Qatada ibn Ribiyy say that
he heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, say, 'The good dream is from Allah, and the bad dream is from
shaytan. When you see what you dislike, spit to your left side three
times when you wake up, and seek refuge with Allah from its evil. It
will not harm you then, Allah willing.' " Abu Salama said, "I would
see dreams which weighed on me more heavily than a mountain. When I
heard this hadith, I was not concerned about it."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his
father said about this ayat, "You have good news in the life of this
world and the next world," (Sura 10 ayat 64), that it was the good
dream which the man who was salih saw or which was shown to him.

ibn Abi Hind from Abu Musa al-Ashari that the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever plays games of
dice has disobeyed Allah and His Messenger. "
Yahya related
to me from Malik from Alqama from his mother that A'isha, the wife of
the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, heard that the
people who lived in a room in her house had some dice. She sent a
message to them, "If you do not remove them, I will remove you from my
house," and she reproached them for it.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi from Abdullah ibn Umar
that when he found one of his family playing dice he beat him and
destroyed the dice.
Yahya said that he heard Malik say,
"There is no good in chess, and he disapproved of it." Yahya said, "I
heard him disapprove of playing it and other worthless games. He
recited this ayat, 'What is there after the truth except going the
wrong way.' " (Sura l0 ayat 32).

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"The one riding greets the one walking, and when one of a group of
people gives a greeting, it is enough for all of them."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Wahb ibn Kaysan that Muhammad
ibn Amr ibn Ata said, "I was sitting with Abdullah ibn Abbas when a
Yemeni man came in. He said, 'Peace be upon you, and the mercy of
Allah and His blessing' (as-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa
barakatuhu), and then he added something more to that. Ibn Abbas said
(and at that time his eyesight had gone), 'Who is this?' People said,
'This is a Yemeni who has come to see you,' and they introduced him.
Ibn Abbas said, 'The greeting ends with the word blessing.' "
Yahya said that Malik was asked, "Does one greet a woman?" He said,
"As for an old woman, I do not disapprove of it. As for a young woman,
I do not like it."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha from Abu Murra, the mawla of Aqil ibn Abi Talib from Abu Waqid
al-Laythi that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, was sitting in the mosque with some people when three
people came in. Two came toward the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, and one went away. When the two stopped
at the assembly of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, they gave the greeting. One of them saw a gap in the
circle and sat in it. The other sat down behind the circle. The third
turned away and left. When the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, finished, he said, "Shall I tell you about three
people? One of them sought shelter with Allah, so Allah gave him
shelter. The other was shy, so Allah was shy to him. The other turned
away, so Allah turned away from him."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha that Anas ibn Malik heard Umar ibn al-Khattab return the
greeting of a man who greeted him. Then Umar asked the man, "How are
you?" He said, "I praise Allah to you." (Ahmadu ilayka Allah) Umar
said, "That is what I wanted from you."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha that at-Tufayl ibn Ubayy ibn Kab told him that he visited
Abdullah ibn Umar one morning and went out with him to the market, and
when they were out, Abdullah ibn Umar did not pass by anyone selling
poor merchandise or selling commodities or a needy person or anyone
but that he greeted them.
At-Tufayl said, "I came to Abdullah
ibn Umar one day and he asked me to follow him to the market. I said
to him, 'What will you do in the market if you will not stop to sell
nor seek any goods or barter with them or sit in any of the assemblies
or market?' Abdullah ibn Umar said that we should sit down and talk,
and then he explained, 'Abu Batni, (lit. father of the belly, at-
Tufayl had a prominent stomach), we go out in the morning only for the
sake of the greeting. We greet whomever we meet.' "
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that a man
greeted Abdullah ibn Umar. He said, "Peace be upon you and the mercy
of Allah and his barakat, on and on." Abdullah ibn Umar said to him,
"And on you, a thousand times," as if he disliked that.
Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard that when one
entered an unoccupied house, one should say, "Peace be upon us and on
the slaves of Allah, who are salih." (As-salamu alayna wa ala
ibadillahi's-saliheen).O

حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى أُمِّي فَقَالَ " نَعَمْ " . قَالَ الرَّجُلُ إِنِّي مَعَهَا فِي الْبَيْتِ . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " اسْتَأْذِنْ عَلَيْهَا " . فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ إِنِّي خَادِمُهَا . فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " اسْتَأْذِنْ عَلَيْهَا أَتُحِبُّ أَنْ تَرَاهَا عُرْيَانَةً " . قَالَ لاَ . قَالَ " فَاسْتَأْذِنْ عَلَيْهَا " .
Malik related to me from Safwan ibn Sulaym from Ata ibn Yasar
that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
was questioned by a man who said, "Messenger of Allah, shall I ask
permission of my mother to enter?" He said, "Yes " The man said, "I
live with her in the house". The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said "Ask her permission." The man said, "I
am her servant." The Messenger of Allah. may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "Ask her permission. Do you want to see her naked?"
He said, "No." He said, "Then ask her permission."
Malik related to me from a reliable source of his from Bukayr ibn
Abdullah ibn al-Ashajj from Basr ibn Said from Abu Said al-Khudri that
Abu Musa al-Ashari said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, 'One asks permission three times. If you
are given permission, then enter. If not, go away.' "
Malik related to me from Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman from another
of the ulama of that time that Abu Musa al-Ashari came and asked
permission from Umar ibn al-Khattab to enter. He asked permission
three times, and then went away Umar ibn al-Khattab sent after him and
said, "What's wrong with you? Why didn't you come in?" Abu Musa said,
"I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, say, 'Ask permission to enter three times. If you are given
permission, then enter. If not, go away.' ''Umar said, "Who can
confirm this? If you do not bring me someone to confirm it, I will do
such-and-such to you."
Abu Musa went out until he came to an
assembly in the mosque which was called the Majlis-al-Ansar. He said,
"I told Umar ibn al-Khattab that I heard the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, 'Ask permission three times.
If you are given permission, then enter. If not, go away.' Umar said,
'If you do not bring me someone who can confirm it, I will do such-
and-such to you'. If any of you have heard that, let him come with
me.' " They said to Abu Said al-Khudri, "Go with him". Abu Said was
the youngest of them. He went with him and told Umar ibn al-Khattab
about that."
Umar ibn al-Khattab said to Abu Musa, "I did not
suspect you, but I feared lest people forge sayings of the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace."
Malik related to me from Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr from his father
that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
said, "If a man sneezes, invoke a blessing on him. Then if he sneezes,
invoke a blessing on him. Then if he sneezes, invoke a blessing on
him. Then if he sneezes, say, 'You have a cold'." Abdullah ibn Abi
Bakr said, "I don't know whether it was after the third or fourth."
Malik related to me from Nafi that when Abdullah ibn Umar sneezed
and someone said to him, "May Allah have mercy on you,"
(Yarhamuka'llah), he said, "May Allah have mercy on us and you, and
forgive us and you." (Yarhamuna'llah wa yaghfirlana wa lakum).
Malik related to me from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi Talha that
Rafi ibn Ishaq, the mawla of ash-Shifa informed him that he and
Abdullah ibn Abi Talha had gone to visit Abu Said al-Khudri while he
was ill. Abu Said said to them, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, informed us, 'The angels do not enter a
house which contains pictures or images.' " Ishaq was not sure which
of them Abu Said said.
Malik related to me from Abu'n-Nasr that Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah
ibn Utba ibn Masud went to visit Abu Talha al-Ansari when he was ill.
He said, "I found Sahl ibn Hunayf with him. Abu Talha summoned a man
and removed a rug which was under him. Sahl ibn Hunayf said to him,
'Why did you remove it?' He said, 'Because there were pictures on it,
and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
said what you know about them.' Sahl replied, 'Didn't the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, "except for
markings on a garment?"' (A rug was considered a garment). He said,
'Yes, but it is more pleasing to myself.' "

Malik related to me from Nafi from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from
A'isha, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, that she bought a cushion which had pictures on it. When the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, saw it,
he stopped at the door and did not enter. She recognised disapproval
on his face and said, "Messenger of Allah, I turn in repentance to
Allah and His Messenger. What have I done wrong?" The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "What is the
meaning of this cushion?" She said, "I bought it for you to sit and
recline on." The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "Those who make such pictures will be punished on the Day
of Rising. It will be said to them, 'Bring to life what you have
created'. Then he said, 'The angels do not enter a house in which
there are pictures.' "
Malik related to me from Abd ar-Rahman ibn Abdullah ibn Abd ar-
Rahman ibn Abi Sasaca that Sulayman ibn Yasar said, "The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, entered the house of
Maimuna bint al-Harith and there was a lizard in which there were eggs
to eat. Abdullah ibn Abbas and Khalid ibn al-Walid were with him. He
said, 'From where did you get this?' She replied, 'My sister, Huzayla
bint al-Harith, gave it to me.' He then told Abdullah ibn Abbas and
Khalid to eat. They said, 'Won't you eat, Messenger of Allah?' He
said, 'There are those who visit me from Allah.' Maimuna said,
'Messenger of Allah, shall we give you some milk to drink which we
have?' He said, 'Yes.' When he drank, he said, 'From where did you get
this?' She said, 'My sister, Huzayla gave it to me.' The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Do you see your
slave-girl whom you asked me for permission to free? Give her to your
sister and bring her to your maternal relatives to take care of her.
That is better for you.' "

Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Abu Umama ibn Sahl ibn
Hunayf from Abdullah ibn Abbas that Khalid ibn al-Walid ibn al-Mughira
entered the house of Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, and he was brought a roasted lizard. The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, stretched
his hand toward it. One of the women who was in Maimuna's house said,
"Tell the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
what he means to eat." Someone said, "It is a lizard, Messenger of
Allah." He withdrew his hand. Khalid said, "Is it haram, Messenger of
Allah?" He said, "No, but there were none in my people's land, and I
find that I dislike them."
Khalid added, "I chewed and ate it
while the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
was looking."

people who were with him at the door of the mosque. He said, "I heard

each day.' " He was asked, "Did you hear this from the Messenger of
