A man said, "O Messenger of Allah, will a person be held accountable for what they did in pre-Islamic times?" He replied, "Whoever does good in Islam will not be held accountable for what they did in pre-Islamic times, and whoever does evil in Islam will be held accountable for both the past and present." – Sound Chain

A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we were people of ignorance and worshipped idols. We used to kill our children. I had a daughter whom I loved dearly, and she was happy whenever I called her. One day, I called her and she followed me. I continued walking until we reached a well not far from my family's home. I took her by the hand and pushed her into the well. Before I did this, I made her promise to say, 'O my father! O my father!' The Prophet ﷺ then cried until his tears stopped. One of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ said to him, 'Did you sadden the Messenger of Allah?' He replied, 'Stop, for he is asking about what concerns him.' Then he said to the man, 'Repeat what you just said.' The man repeated his story, and the Prophet ﷺ cried again until his tears soaked his beard. Then he said to him, 'Verily, Allah has forgiven the people of ignorance for what they have done, so resume your actions accordingly.'" – Weak Chain

His family sent him with a cup containing butter and milk to their gods. So he asked himself: What prevents me from eating the butter due to fear of its harm? Then a dog came and ate the butter and drank the milk. After that, the man excreted on the idol while the dog was watching. Harun said: In the pre-Islamic era, when a man traveled, he would carry with him four stones. Three for his need and the fourth, he would worship and raise his dog, and he would kill his child. – Good Chain

"We were in the pre-Islamic period of ignorance, when we would worship a good stone if we found one, and if we did not find a stone, we would gather a mound of sand. Then we would bring the female camel, the Safiyyah, and be amazed at it. We would milk it onto the mound until we quenched it, and then we would worship that mound, wherever we stood in that place." Abu Muhammad As-Safiyy Al-Kathirah, may Allah have mercy upon him, said that "Fatajj" means when the camel raised its hind legs for milking, and "Fajj" means a wide road, and its plural is "Fijaj." – Weak Chain

We find a written inscription that says: Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He is not harsh, nor rude, nor does he shout in the markets. He does not repay evil with evil, but forgives and pardons. His followers are those who praise Allah the Almighty in every valley and thank Him in every situation. They gather together and perform ablution over their extremities. Their caller calls out in the air, their lines in battle are equal to their lines in prayer. They are no different during the night than the buzzing of bees, and their place of birth is Makkah, their migration is to Ṭaybah, and their rule is in Shām." – Sound Chain

He used to say: "We find the description of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the verse 'We have sent you as a witness, a bearer of glad tidings, and a warner, and a protector for the unlettered people. You are My servant and My Messenger. I have named you Al-Mutawakkil (The Reliant). You are not rude, harsh, nor noisy in the markets. You do not retaliate for the sake of evil with similar evil, but rather forgive and overlook. I will not take back your soul until you establish the straight path. They proclaim that there is no deity but Allah, and I will open for them blind eyes, deaf ears, and sealed hearts.’” Ata' bin Yassar said, and Abu Waqid Al-Laythi informed me that he heard Ka'ab say the same as Ibn Salam said. – Weak Chain

Regarding Ka'b in the first line, "Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, chosen by my Lord, not rude, harsh, or abusive in the markets, he does not retaliate an evil act with an evil act but rather forgives and pardons. His birth was in Mecca, his migration was to Taybah (Madinah), and his sovereignty is in Sham (Greater Syria)." And in the second line, "Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, his nation praises Him in times of ease and times of hardship, they praise Him in every situation and magnify Him in every honor. The guardians of the sun (stars) offer their prayers when their time comes, even if they are at the top of their towers. They seek closeness to Him, illuminate their surroundings, and their voices resonate in the sky at night, like the buzzing of bees." – Weak Chain

Ka'b replied, 'We find him as Muhammad bin Abdullah, born in Mecca and migrating to Tabah, and his kingdom will be in Syria. He is neither obscene nor a slanderer in the marketplaces. He does not respond to evil with evil, but instead forgives and pardons. His nation praises Allah in times of ease and glorifies Allah in every hardship.

There was a man from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ who had a need for him, so he walked with him until he entered (a house). He said, "Place one of your feet inside the house and keep the other outside as if you are whispering." Then he turned and said, "Do you know who I was speaking to? This is an angel that I have never seen before today. He sought permission from his Lord to greet me." He said, "Indeed, we have given you, O Muhammad, abundance (of good) and the Qur'an (as) a detailed explanation, and tranquility as a source of patience, and the criterion of distinguishing (between right and wrong) and a means of connection."

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out to the Bat-ha and took Ibn Mas'ood with him. He made him sit down and drew a line for him, then he said, "Do not move from here until men come to you, and do not speak to them, for they will not speak to you." So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went to where he wanted, and they halted at the line, not crossing it, and then they approached the Prophet (ﷺ) until, when it was the end of the night, they came to me while I was lying on my side. If the Prophet (ﷺ) was sleeping, he would blow lightly in his sleep. So while the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) lying on his side and I was lying with my leg under his thigh, some men came to me. They had the most beautiful white garments on. Allah knows best what beauty they possessed. Some of them sat by his head, and some sat by his feet. They said, "We have not seen a slave who has been given what this Prophet (ﷺ) has been given. His eyes sleep, but his heart is awake. Bring forth an example for him - a Lord who builds a palace, then makes a feast and invites the people to it, then the people leave and he rises." So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) awoke, and said: "Do you know who these are?" I said: "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said: "These are the Angels." He said: "Do you know what example they gave?" I said: "Allah and His Messenger know best."

He told them that he was among the companions of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: "How was your initial experience, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "My nursemaid was from the tribe of Bani Sa'd bin Bakr. So I and her son set out with a herd of camels that belonged to us, and we did not take any provisions with us. So I said: 'O brother, go and bring us some provisions from our mother.' So my brother set out and I stayed with the camels. Then two white birds, like eagles, came flying towards me. One of them said to the other: 'Is that him?' The other said: 'Yes.' So they hastened towards me and seized me, throwing me down on the ground and splitting open my stomach. Then they extracted my heart and split it open, taking out two black clots. One of them said to the other: 'Bring me some snow water.' So he washed the inside of my chest with it. Then he said: 'Bring me some cold water.' So he washed my heart with it. Then he said: 'Bring me the sakinah.' So he put it in my heart and closed the opening. Then one of them said to the other: 'Weigh him according to the weight of his ummah (followers).' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'When I look at the ummah above me, I am afraid that some of them may come over me.' He said: 'If his ummah were to be weighed against him, they would outweigh him. Then they went away and left me.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'I felt a great split' then I went to my mother and told her about what had happened to me. She was afraid that I had been bewitched, so she brought a camel and made me ride behind her on it until we reached my mother. She said: 'Have you fulfilled your trust and discharged your duty?' I told her all that had happened to me, and that did not surprise her. She said: 'When you were delivered from me, I saw a light issuing from me that illuminated the castles of Syria.'" – Weak Chain

"I went on a journey with the Prophet ﷺ, and he used to not relieve himself until he disappeared, so he couldn't be seen. We descended into an area without trees or landmarks. The Prophet ﷺ said, 'O Jabir, make water in your waterskin and then set out with us.' So we set out until we couldn't see anything, and suddenly there were two trees with a four-arm gap between them. He said, 'O Jabir, go to that tree and say, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commands you to give me shade for my companions and me.'' So I did, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat behind us. Then we returned to our place, and we rode with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was between us, as if birds were shading us. A woman came with a child and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, the devil takes my son every day three times.' He took the child and placed him between himself and the front of the camel saddle, and he said, 'Get away, O enemy of Allah! I am the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, get away, O enemy of Allah! I am the Messenger of Allah ﷺ,' three times. Then he handed the child back to her. When we finished our journey and passed by that place, the woman came to us with her child and two rams that were pulling them. She said, 'O Messenger of Allah, accept my gift. I swear by the One who sent you with the truth, he has not returned to that condition since you treated him.' He said, 'Take one and return the other.' Then we continued and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was between us, as if birds were shading us. Suddenly, a camel called out until it knelt down between two rocks. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down and said, 'Who is the owner of this camel?' Some young Ansar men said, 'O Messenger of Allah, it belongs to us.' He asked, 'What is its condition?' They replied, 'We have been tending it for twenty years, and it has a cataract. We wanted to slaughter it and divide it amongst ourselves, but it escaped from us.' He said, 'Sell it to me.' They said, 'No, rather it is for you, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'No, treat it well until its time comes.' The Muslims said at that time, 'O Messenger of Allah, we should be the ones to prostrate to you, not animals.' He said, 'It is not appropriate for anything to prostrate to anything else, even if it were so, women would be prostrating to their husbands.'" – Sound

We accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until we reached a wall in the Tribe of Najjar. There was a camel there that no one could enter the wall except by pulling it aside. We mentioned this to the Prophet ﷺ , so he came and called it. It came and kneeled down in front of him until he patted its head. Then he said, "Bring me a rope." He tied it and handed it over to its owner. Then he turned and said, "There is no one from the heavens to the Earth who does not know that I am the Messenger of Allah, except for the rebellious among the jinn and humans." – Fair Chain

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed the Fajr prayer when suddenly he saw a pack of nearly a hundred wolves approaching. The wolves' fangs were bared and their eyes were red with hunger. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "Will you give up some of your food to satisfy them and ensure safety for everything else?" They complained about their need to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he said, "Give them permission." So they allowed the wolves to come forward, and the wolves left while howling.

On the authority of Nubayh al-Anzi, he said: Jabir ibn Abdullah reported that we went on a military expedition or a journey with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while our group consisted of around twelve hundred people. The time for prayer arrived and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Is there anyone among you who has water for purification?" A man came running with a container in which there was some water that no one else among the group had. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took the container and poured the water into a utensil. He then performed ablution excellently with that water and then left the utensil. The people gathered around that utensil and said, "Rub your faces with it! Rub your faces with it!" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Use it on your hands." When he heard them saying that, he placed his palms into the water and the utensil and said, "In the name of Allah." Then he said, "Pour the water for purification." By the One who has control over my life, I saw water flowing between the fingers of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I swear that he did not lift his hands until all of us had performed ablution. – Sound Chain
