Keep away from the whip. My father came up to him. He

Prophethood). He stopped and listened to him.

pre-Islamic days).

ibn al-Muraqqa' said: Who will give me a lance and get a
reward?

asked: What is its reward? He replied: I shall marry him
to my first daughter born to me. So I gave him my lance
and then disappeared from him till I knew that a
daughter was born to him and she came of age.
I then
came to him and said: Send my wife to me. He swore that
he would not do that until I fixed a dower afresh other
than that agreed between me and him, and I swore that I
should not give him the dower other than that I had
given him before.
The
Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: How old is
she now?
He
said: She has grown old. He said: I think you should
leave her. He said: This put awe and fear into me, and I

times (the narrator was not sure).
He
said: In this matter I hold the opinion that she should
receive the type of dower given to women of her class
with no diminution or excess, observe the waiting period
('iddah) and have her share of inheritance. If it is
erroneous, that is from me and from Satan. Allah and His
Apostle are free from its responsibility. Some people
from Ashja' got up; among them were al-Jarrah and
AbuSinan.
They
said: Ibn Mas'ud, we bear witness that the Apostle of
Allah (peace_be_upon_him) gave a decision for us
regarding Birwa', daughter of Washiq, to the same effect
as the decision you have given. Her husband was Hilal
ibn Murrah al-Ashja'i. Thereupon Abdullah ibn Mas'ud was

and he whom He leads astray has no one to guide him. I
testify that there is no god but Allah, and I testify
that Muhammad is His servant and Apostle.

rights, and reverence the wombs. Allah has been watching
you." ..."you who believe, fear Allah as He should be
feared, and die only as Muslims" ...."you who believe,

theirs, but you have most right, Apostle of Allah, to
have (people) prostrating themselves before you. He
said: Tell me , if you were to pass my grave, would you
prostrate yourself before it? I said: No. He then said:
Do not do so. If I were to command anyone to make

permission to beat them. Then many women came round the
family of the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him)

The

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Book 11, Number 2159:
Narrated Abdullah Ibn Abbas:
Ibn
Umar misunderstood (the Qur'anic verse, "So come to your
tilth however you will")--may Allah forgive him. The
fact is that this clan of the Ansar, who were idolaters,
lived in the company of the Jews who were the people of
the Book. They (the Ansar) accepted their superiority
over themselves in respect of knowledge, and they
followed most of their actions. The people of the Book
(i.e. the Jews) used to have intercourse with their
women on one side alone (i.e. lying on their backs).
This was the most concealing position for (the vagina
of) the women. This clan of the Ansar adopted this
practice from them. But this tribe of the Quraysh used
to uncover their women completely, and seek pleasure
with them from in front and behind and laying them on
their backs.
When
the muhajirun (the immigrants) came to Medina, a man
married a woman of the Ansar. He began to do the same
kind of action with her, but she disliked it, and said
to him: We were approached on one side (i.e. lying on
the back); do it so, otherwise keep away from me. This
matter of theirs spread widely, and it reached the
Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him).
So
Allah, the Exalted, sent down the Qur'anic verse: "Your
wives are a tilth to you, so come to your tilth however
you will," i.e. from in front, from behind or lying on
the back. But this verse meant the place of the delivery
of the child, i.e. the vagina.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Book 11, Number 2161:
Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin:
I and
the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) used to lie in
one cloth at night while I was menstruating. If anything
from me smeared him, he washed the same place (that was
smeared), and did not wash beyond it. If anything from
him smeared his clothe, he washed the same place and did
not wash beyond that, and prayed with it (i.e. the
clothe).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Narrated AbuSa'id al-Khudri:
A man
said: Apostle of Allah, I have a slave-girl and I
withdraw the penis from her (while having intercourse),
and I dislike that she becomes pregnant. I intend (by
intercourse) what the men intend by it.
The
Jews say that withdrawing the penis (azl) is burying the
living girls on a small scale. He (the Prophet) said:
The Jews told a lie. If Allah intends to create it, you
cannot turn it away.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Book 11, Number 2169:
Narrated AbuHurayrah:
AbuNadrah reported: An old man of Tufawah said to me: I
was a guest of AbuHurayrah at Medina. I did not find any
one of the companions of the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him)
more devoted to worship and more hospitable than
AbuHurayrah.
One day
I was with him when he was sitting on his bed. He had a
purse which contained pebbles or kernels. A black
slave-girl of his was sitting below. Counting them he
was glorifying Allah. When the pebbles or the kernels in
the purse were finished, she gathered them and put them
again in the purse, and gave it to him. He said: Should
I not tell you about me and about the Apostle of Allah
(peace_be_upon_him)?
I said:
Yes. He said: Once when I was laid up with fever in the
mosque, the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) came
and entered the mosque, and said: Who saw the youth of
ad-Daws. He said this three times.
A man
said: Apostle of Allah, there he is, laid up with fever
on one side of the mosque. He moved, walking forward
till he reached me. He placed his hand on me. He had a
kind talk with me, and I rose. He then began to walk
till he reached the place where he used to offer his
prayer. He paid his attention to the people. There were
two rows of men and one row of women, or two rows of
women and one row of men (the narrator is doubtful).
He then
said: If Satan makes me forget anything during the
prayer, the men should glorify Allah, and the women
should clap their hands. The Apostle of Allah
(peace_be_upon_him) then prayed and he did not forget
anything during the prayer.
He
said: Be seated in your places, be seated in your
places. The narrator, Musa, added the word "here". He
then praised Allah and exalted Him, and said: Now to our
topic.
The
agreed version begins: He then said: Is there any man
among you who approaches his wife, closes the door,
covers himself with a curtain, and he is concealed with
the curtain of Allah?
They
replied: Yes. He said: later he sits and says: I did
so-and-so; I did so-and-so. The people kept silence. He
then turned to the women and said (to them): Is there
any woman among you who narrates it? They kept silence.
Then a girl fell on one of her knees. The narrator,
Mu'ammil, said in his version: a buxom girl. She raised
her head before the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him)
so that he could see her and listen to her.
She
said: Apostle of Allah, they (the men) describe the
secrets (of intercourse) and they (the women) also
describe the secrets (of intercourse) to the people.
He
said: Do you know what the similitude is? He said: The
likeness of this act is the likeness of a female Satan
who meets the male Satan on the roadside; he fulfils his
desire with her while the people are looking at him.
Beware! The perfume of men is that whose smell becomes
visible and its colour does not appear. Beware! The
perfume of women is that whose colour becomes visible
and whose smell is not obvious.
AbuDawud said: From here I remembered this tradition
from Mu'ammil and Musa: Beware! No man should lie with
another man, no woman should lie with another woman
except with one's child or father. He also mentioned a
third which I have forgotten. This has been mentioned in
the version of Musaddad, but I do not remember it as
precisely as I like.
The
narrator, Musa, said: Hammad narrated this tradition
from al-Jarir from AbuNadrah from at-Tufawi.
