| SahihMuslim-017-001-23477 | | Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ neither recited the Quran to the Jinn nor did he see them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out with some of his Companions with the intention of going to the bazaar of Ukaz And there had been at that time obstructions between satans and the news from the Heaven; and there were flung flames upon them. So satan went back to their people and they said: What has happened to you? They said: There have been created obstructions between us and the news from the Heaven. And there have been flung upon us flames. They said: It cannot happen but for some important event. So traverse the eastern parts of the earth and the western parts and find out why is it that there have been created obstructions between us and the news from the Heaven. So they went forth and traversed the easts of the earth and its wests. Some of them proceeded towards Tihama and that is a nakhl towards the bazaar of Ukaz and he the Holy Prophet was leading his Companions in the morning prayer. So when they heard the Quran. they listened to it attentively and said: It is this which has caused obstruction between us and news from the Heaven. They went back to their people and said: O our people; we have heard a strange Quran which directs us to the right path; so we affirm our faith in it and we would never associate anyone with our Lord. And Allah; the Exalted and Glorious; revealed to His Apostle Muhammad ﷺ : It has been revealed to me that a party of Jinn listened to it Quran; lxxii. 1. | The Chapter on Heaven Alquran Ramdan And Satan in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 33 in Sahih Muslim |
| SahihMuslim-017-001-23799 | | Saad Bin Hisham Bin Amir decided to participate in the expedition for the sake of Allah; so he came to Medina and he decided to dispose of his property there and buy arms and horses instead and fight against the Romans to the end of his life. When he came to Medina; he met the people of Medina. They dissuaded him to do such a thing; and informed him that a group of six men had decided to do so during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade them to do it; and said: Is there not for you a model pattern in me? And when they narrated this to him Saad Bin Hisham ; he returned to his wife; though he had divorced her and made people witness to his reconciliation. He then came to Ibn Abbas and asked him about the Witr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Ibn Abbas said: Should I not lead you to one who knows best amongst the people of the world about the Witr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? He said: Who is it? He Ibn Abbas said: It is Aisha. So go to her and ask her about Witr and then come to me and inform me about her answer that she would give you. So I came to Hakim Bin Aflah and requested him to take me to her. He said: I would not go to her; for I forbade her to speak anything about the conflict between the two groupS; but she refused to accept my advice and went to participate in that corflict. I requested him Hakim with an oath to lead me to her. So we went to Aisha and we begged permission to meet her. She granted us permission and we went in. She said: Are you Hakim? She recognised him. He replied: Yes. She said: Who is there with you? He said: He is Saad Bin Hisham. She said: Which Hisham? He said: He is Hisham Bin Amir. She blessed him Amir with mercy from Allah and spoke good of him Qatada said that he died as a martyr in Uhud. I said: Mother of the Faithful; tell me about the character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She said: Dont you read the Quran? I said: Yes. Upon this she said: The character of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was the Quran. He said: I felt inclined to get up and not ask anything further till death. But then I changed my mind and said: Inform me about the observance of the night prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She said: Did you not recite: O thou wrapped up? He said: Yes. She said: Allah; the Exalted and the Glorious; made the observance of the night prayer at the beginning of this Surah obligatory. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his Companions around him observed this night prayer for one year. Allah held back the concluding portion of this Surah for twelve months in the Heaven till at the end of this period Allah revealed the concluding verses of this Surah which lightened the burden of this prayer ; and the night prayer became a supererogatory prayer after being an obligatory one. I said: Mother of the Faithful; inform me about the Witr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She said: I used to prepare tooth stick for him and water for his ablution; and Allah would rouse him to the extent He wished during the night. He would use the tooth stick; and perform ablution; and would offer nine rakahs; and would not sit but in the eighth one and would remember Allah; and praise Him and supplicate Him; then he would get up without uttering the salutation and pray the ninth rakah. He would then sit; remember; praise Him and supplicate Him and then utter a salutation loud enough for us to hear. He would then pray two rakahs sitting after uttering the salutation; and that made eleven rakahs. O my son; but when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ grew old and put on flesh; he observed Witr of seven; doing in the two rakahs as he had done formerly; and that made nine. O my son; and when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed prayer; he liked to keep on observing it; and when sleep or pain overpowered him and made it impossible for him to observe prayer in the night; he prayed twelve rakahs daring the day. I am not aware of Allah Prophet ﷺ having recited the whole Quran during one single night; or praying through the night till morning; or fasting a complete month; except Ramadan. He the narrator said: I then went to Ibn Abbas and narrated to him the hadith transmitted from her ; and he said: She says the truth If I went to her and got into her presence; I would have listened to it orally from her. He said: If I were to know that you do not go to her. I would not have transmitted this hadith to you narrated by her. | The Chapter on Bowing In Prayers And Alquran in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 18 in Sahih Muslim |

He again recited and the horse again jumped. He again recited and it jumped as before. Usaid said: I was afraid lest it should trample his son Yahya. I stood near it the horse and saw something like a canopy over my head with what seemed to be lamps in it; rising up in the sky till it disappeared. I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the next day and said: Messenger of Allah; I recited the Quran during the night in my enclosure and my horse began to jump. Upon this the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: You should have kept on reciting; Ibn Hudair. He Ibn Hudair said: I recited. It jumped as before. Upon this the Messenger of Allah ﷺ again said: You should have kept on reciting; Ibn Hudair. He Ibn Hudair said: I recited and it again jumped as before.

And those who could get together gathered there. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out and recited: Say: He; Allah; is One. He then entered his house. Some of us said to the others: Perhaps there has been some news from the heaven on account of which he has gone Inside the house. The Apostle of Allah ﷺ again came out and said: I told you that I was going to recite one-third of the Qurin; keep in mind; this Surah Ikhlas is equivalent to one-third of the Quran. | The Chapter on Glory And Praise To Allah In Recitation in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 45 in Sahih Muslim |
| SahihMuslim-017-001-23965 | | Ubay Bin Kaab reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was near the tank of Banu Ghifar that Gabriel came to him and said: Allah has commanded you to recite to your people the Quran in one dialect. Upon this he said: I ask from Allah pardon and forgiveness. My people are not capable of doing it. He then came for the second time and said: Allah has commanded you that you should recite the Quran to your people in two dialects. Upon this he the Holy prophet again said: I seek pardon and forgiveness from Allah; my people would not be able to do so. He Gabriel came for the third time and said: Allah has commanded you to recite the Quran to your people in three dialects. Upon this he said: I ask pardon and forgiveness from Allah. My people would not be able to do it.

| SahihMuslim-017-001-23967 | | Abu Wail reported that a person named Nabik Bin Sinan came to Abdullah Bin Masud and said: Abu Abdulrahman how do you recite this word alif or ya ? Would you read It as: min main ghaira Aasi n or au min main ghaira ghaira yasin. AlQuran; xlvii. 15 ? Abdullah said: You seem to have memorised the whole of the Quran except this. He again said: I recite all the mufassal surahs in one rakah. Upon this Abdullah said: You must have been reciting It hastily like the recitation of poetry. Verily. there are people who recite the Quran; but it does not go down beyond their collar bones. It is a fact with the Quran that it is beneficial only when it settles in the heart and is rooted deeply in it. The best of the acts in prayer are bowing and prostration. I am quite aware of the occasions when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ combined together two surahs in every rakah. Abdullah then stood up and went out with Alqama following in his footstep. He said Ibn Numair had told him that the narration was like that: A person belonging to Banu Bajila came to Abdullah; and he did not mention the name of Nahik Bin Sinan. | The Chapter on Recitation And Prostration in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 49 in Sahih Muslim |
