The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "While a man was walking, dragging his dress with pride, he was caused to be
swallowed by the earth and will go on sinking in it till the Day of Resurrection."

Chapter 54: Prophets - كتاب أحاديث الأنبياء
Narrated Abu Huraira:
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " نَحْنُ الآخِرُونَ السَّابِقُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، بَيْدَ كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا وَأُوتِينَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ، فَهَذَا الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي اخْتَلَفُوا، فَغَدًا لِلْيَهُودِ وَبَعْدَ غَدٍ لِلنَّصَارَى ". "عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ فِى كُلِّ سَبْعَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَوْمٌ يَغْسِلُ رَأْسَهُ وَجَسَدَهُ"
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "We are the last (to come) but we will be the foremost on the Day of Resurrection,
nations were given the Book (i.e. Scripture) before us, and we were given the Holy Book after them.
This (i.e. Friday) is the day about which they differed. So the next day (i.e. Saturday) was prescribed
for the Jews and the day after it (i.e. Sunday) for the Christians. It is incumbent on every Muslim to
wash his head and body on a Day (i.e. Friday) (at least) in every seven days."
When Muawiya bin Abu Sufyan came to Medina for the last time, he delivered a sermon before us.
He took out a tuft of hair and said, "I never thought that someone other than the Jews would do such a
thing (i.e. use false hair). The Prophet (ﷺ) named such a practice, 'Az-Zur' (i.e. falsehood)," meaning the
use of false hair.
Regarding the Verse: 'And (We) made you into Shu'ub and Qabail-- (49.13) that Shu'uib means the
big Qabail (i.e. nations) while the Qabail (i.e. tribes) means the branch tribes.
Once Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was asked, "Who is the most honorable amongst the people?" He said, "The
most righteous (i.e. Allah-fearing) amongst you." They said, "We do not ask you about this." He said,
"Then Joseph, the prophet of Allah."

I asked Zainab bint Abi Salama (i.e. daughter of the wife of the Prophet, "Tell me about the Prophet (ﷺ) .

I was told by the Rabiba (i.e. daughter of the wife of the Prophet) who, I think, was Zainab, that the
Prophet (forbade the utensils (of wine called) Ad-Dubba, Al-Hantam, Al-Muqaiyar and Al-Muzaffat. I
said to her, 'Tell me as to which tribe the Prophet (ﷺ) belonged; was he from the tribe of Mudar?'' She
replied, "He belonged to the tribe of Mudar and was from the offspring of An-Nadr bin Kinana. "

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "You see that the people are of different natures. Those who were the best in the
pre-lslamic period, are also the best in Islam if they comprehend religious knowledge. You see that the
best amongst the people in this respect (i.e. ambition of ruling) are those who hate it most. And you
see that the worst among people is the double faced (person) who appears to these with one face and
to the others with another face (i.e a hypocrite).

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " النَّاسُ تَبَعٌ لِقُرَيْشٍ فِي هَذَا الشَّأْنِ، مُسْلِمُهُمْ تَبَعٌ لِمُسْلِمِهِمْ، وَكَافِرُهُمْ تَبَعٌ لِكَافِرِهِمْ ".
"وَالنَّاسُ مَعَادِنُ، خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ خِيَارُهُمْ فِي الإِسْلاَمِ إِذَا فَقِهُوا، تَجِدُونَ مِنْ خَيْرِ النَّاسِ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ كَرَاهِيَةً لِهَذَا الشَّأْنِ حَتَّى يَقَعَ فِيهِ."
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The tribe of Quraish has precedence over the people in this connection (i.e the right
of ruling). The Muslims follow the Muslims amongst them, and the infidels follow the infidels
amongst them. People are of different natures: The best amongst them in the pre-lslamic period are the
best in Islam provided they comprehend the religious knowledge. You will find that the best amongst
the people in this respect (i.e. of ruling) is he who hates it (i.e. the idea of ruling) most, till he is given
the pledge of allegiance."

Ibn `Abbas recited the Qur'anic Verse:--'Except to be kind to me for my kin-ship to you--" (42.23)
Sa`id bin Jubair said, "(The Verse implies) the kinship of Muhammad." Ibn `Abbas said, "There was
not a single house (i.e. sub-tribe) of Quraish but had a kinship to the Prophet (ﷺ) and so the above Verse
was revealed in this connection, and its interpretation is: 'O Quraish! You should keep good relation
between me (i.e. Muhammad) and you."
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "From this side from the east, afflictions will appear. Rudeness and lack of mercy
are characteristics of the rural bedouins who are busy with their camels and cows (and pay no
attention to religion). Such are the tribes of Rabi`a and Mudar."

" الْفَخْرُ وَالْخُيَلاَءُ فِي الْفَدَّادِينَ أَهْلِ الْوَبَرِ، وَالسَّكِينَةُ فِي أَهْلِ الْغَنَمِ، وَالإِيمَانُ يَمَانٍ، وَالْحِكْمَةُ يَمَانِيَةٌ ". سُمِّيَتِ الْيَمَنَ لأَنَّهَا عَنْ يَمِينِ الْكَعْبَةِ، وَالشَّأْمَ عَنْ يَسَارِ الْكَعْبَةِ، وَالْمَشْأَمَةُ الْمَيْسَرَةُ، وَالْيَدُ الْيُسْرَى الشُّؤْمَى، وَالْجَانِبُ الأَيْسَرُ الأَشْأَمُ.
I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "Pride and arrogance are characteristics of the rural bedouins while
calmness is found among the owners of sheep. Belief is Yemenite, and wisdom is also Yemenite i.e.
the Yemenites are well-known for their true belief and wisdom)." Abu `Abdullah (Al-Bukhari) said,
"Yemen was called so because it is situated to the right of the Ka`ba, and Sham was called so because
it is situated to the left of the Ka`ba."
That while he was with a delegation from Quraish to Muawiya, the latter heard the news that
`Abdullah bin `Amr bin Al-`As said that there would be a king from the tribe of Qahtan. On that
Muawiya became angry, got up and then praised Allah as He deserved, and said, "Now then, I have
heard that some men amongst you narrate things which are neither in the Holy Book, nor have been
told by Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). Those men are the ignorant amongst you. Beware of such hopes as make the
people go astray, for I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, 'Authority of ruling will remain with Quraish, and
whoever bears hostility to them, Allah will destroy him as long as they abide by the laws of the
religion.' "

`Uthman bin `Affan went (to the Prophet) and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! You gave property to Bani Al-Muttalib and did not give us, although we and they are of the same degree of relationship to you." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Only Bani Hashim and Bani Al Muttalib are one thing (as regards family status).
`Abdullah bin Az-Zubair went with some women of the tribe of Bani Zuhra to `Aisha who used to treat them nicely because of their relation to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ).

" قُرَيْشٌ وَالأَنْصَارُ وَجُهَيْنَةُ وَمُزَيْنَةُ وَأَسْلَمُ وَأَشْجَعُ وَغِفَارُ مَوَالِيَّ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ مَوْلًى، دُونَ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ".
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The tribe of Quraish, the Ansar, the (people of the tribe of) Julhaina, Muzaina,
Aslam, Ashja', and Ghifar are my disciples and have no protectors except Allah and His Apostle."
`Abdullah bin Az-Zubair was the most beloved person to `Aisha excluding the Prophet (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr,
and he in his turn, was the most devoted to her, `Aisha used not to withhold the money given to her by
Allah, but she used to spend it in charity. (`Abdullah) bin AzZubair said, " `Aisha should be stopped
from doing so." (When `Aisha heard this), she said protestingly, "Shall I be stopped from doing so? I
vow that I will never talk to `Abdullah bin Az-Zubair." On that, Ibn Az-Zubair asked some people
from Quraish and particularly the two uncles of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to intercede with her, but she refused
(to talk to him). Az-Zuhriyun, the uncles of the Prophet, including `Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Aswad bin
`Abd Yaghuth and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama said to him, "When we ask for the permission to visit
her, enter her house along with us (without taking her leave)." He did accordingly (and she accepted
their intercession). He sent her ten slaves whom she manumitted as an expiation for (not keeping) her
vow. `Aisha manumitted more slaves for the same purpose till she manumitted forty slaves. She said,
"I wish I had specified what I would have done in case of not fulfilling my vow when I made the vow,
so that I might have done it easily."
`Uthman called Zaid bin Thabit, `Abdullah bin Az-Zubair, Sa`id bin Al-`As and `AbdurRahman bin
Al-Harith bin Hisham, and then they wrote the manuscripts of the Holy Qur'an in the form of book in
several copies. `Uthman said to the three Quraishi persons. " If you differ with Zaid bin Thabit on any
point of the Qur'an, then write it in the language of Quraish, as the Qur'an was revealed in their
language." So they acted accordingly. (Sa`id bin Thabit was an Ansari and not from Quraish ).

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) passed by some people from the tribe of Aslam practicing archery. He said, "O
children of Ishmael! Throw (arrows), for your father was an archer. I am on the side of Bani so-andso,"
meaning one of the two teams. The other team stopped throwing, whereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"What has happened to them?" They replied, "How shall we throw while you are with Bani so-andso?"
He said, "Throw for I am with all of you."

you except in the Sacred Months. Therefore we would like you to give us some instructions which we

four things and forbid you (to do) four things: (I order you) to believe in Allah testifying that None
has the right to be worshipped except Allah; to offer the prayer perfectly; to pay the Zakat; and to give
