The Prophet said, 'O people! The reward of deeds depends upon the
intentions, and every person will get the reward according to what
he has intended. So, whoever emigrated for Allah and His Apostle,
then his emigration was for Allah and His Apostle, and whoever
emigrated to take worldly benefit or for a woman to marry, then his
emigration was for what he emigrated for."

Narrated Talha bin 'Ubaidullah:
A bedouin with unkempt hair came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O
Allah's Apostle! Tell me what Allah has enjoined on me as regards
prayers." The Prophet said, "You have to offer perfectly the five
(compulsory) prayers in a day and a night (24 hrs.), except if you
want to perform some extra optional prayers." The bedouin said,
"Tell me what Allah has enjoined on me as regards fasting." The
Prophet said, "You have to observe fast during the month of Ramadan
except if you fast some extra optional fast." The bedouin said,
"Tell me what Allah has enjoined on me as regard Zakat." The Prophet
then told him the Islamic laws and regulations whereupon the bedouin
said, "By Him Who has honored you, I will not perform any optional
deeds of worship and I will not leave anything of what Allah has
enjoined on me." Allah's Apostle said, "He will be successful if he
has told the truth (or he will enter Paradise if he said the
truth)." And some people said, "The Zakat for one-hundred and twenty
camels is two Hiqqas, and if the Zakat payer slaughters the camels
intentionally or gives them as a present or plays some other trick
in order to avoid the Zakat, then there is no harm (in it) for him.
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 89
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "On the Day of Resurrection the Kanz (Treasure
or wealth of which, Zakat has not been paid) of anyone of you will
appear in the shape of a huge bald headed poisonous male snake and
its owner will run away from it, but it will follow him and say, 'I
am your Kanz.'" The Prophet added, "By Allah, that snake will keep
on following him until he stretches out his hand and let the snake
swallow it." Allah's Apostle added, "If the owner of camels does not
pay their Zakat, then, on the Day of Resurrection those camels will
come to him and will strike his face with their hooves." Some people
said: Concerning a man who has camels, and is afraid that Zakat will
be due so he sells those camels for similar camels or for sheep or
cows or money one day before Zakat becomes due in order to avoid
payment of their Zakat cunningly! "He has not to pay anything." The
same scholar said, "If one pays Zakat of his camels one day or one
year prior to the end of the year (by the end of which Zakat becomes
due), his Zakat will be valid."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 90t
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
Sa'd bin 'Ubada Al-Ansari sought the verdict of Allah's Apostle
regarding a vow made by his mother who had died before fulfilling
it. Allah's Apostle said, "Fulfill it on her behalf." Some people
said, "If the number of camels reaches twenty, then their owner has
to pay four sheep as Zakat; and if their owner gives them as a gift
or sells them in order to escape the payment of Zakat cunningly
before the completion of a year, then he is not to pay anything, and
if he slaughters them and then dies, then no Zakat is to be taken
from his property."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 90
Narrated 'Abdullah:
Nafi narrated to me that 'Abdullah said that Allah's Apostle forbade
the Shighar. I asked Nafi', "What is the Shighar?" He said, "It is
to marry the daughter of a man and marry one's daughter to that man
(at the same time) without Mahr (in both cases); or to marry the
sister of a man and marry one's own sister to that man without
Mahr." Some people said, "If one, by a trick, marries on the basis
of Shighar, the marriage is valid but its condition is illegal." The
same scholar said regarding Al-Mut'a, "The marriage is invalid and
its condition is illegal." Some others said, "The Mut'a and the
Shighar are permissible but the condition is illegal."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 91
Narrated Muhammad bin 'Ali:
'Ali was told that Ibn 'Abbas did not see any harm in the Mut'a
marriage. 'Ali said, "Allah's Apostle forbade the Mut'a marriage on
the Day of the battle of Khaibar and he forbade the eating of
donkey's meat." Some people said, "If one, by a tricky way, marries
temporarily, his marriage is illegal." Others said, "The marriage is
valid but its condition is illegal."

That he asked 'Aisha regarding the Verse: 'If you fear that you
shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan girls, marry
(other) women of your choice.' (4.3) 'Aisha said, "It is about an
orphan girl under the custody of her guardian who being attracted by
her wealth and beauty wants to marry her with Mahr less than other
women of her status. So such guardians were forbidden to marry them
unless they treat them justly by giving them their full Mahr. Then
the people sought the verdict of Allah's Apostle for such cases,
whereupon Allah revealed: 'They ask your instruction concerning
women..' (4.127) (The sub-narrator then mentioned the Hadith.)

The Prophet said, "I am only a human being, and you people have
disputes. May be some one amongst you can present his case in a more
eloquent and convincing manner than the other, and I give my
judgment in his favor according to what I hear. Beware! If ever I
give (by error) somebody something of his brother's right then he
should not take it as I have only, given him a piece of Fire." (See
Hadith No. 638. Vol. 3)
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 98
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "A virgin should not be married till she is asked
for her consent; and the matron should not be married till she is
asked whether she agrees to marry or not." It was asked, "O Allah's
Apostle! How will she(the virgin) express her consent?" He said, "By
keeping silent." Some people said, "If a virgin is not asked for her
consent and she is not married, and then a man, by playing a trick
presents two false witnesses that he has married her with her
consent and the judge confirms his marriage as a true one, and the
husband knows that the witnesses were false ones, then there is no
harm for him to consummate his marriage with her and the marriage is
regarded as valid."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 99
Narrated Al-Qasim:
A woman from the offspring of Ja'far was afraid lest her guardian
marry her (to somebody) against her will. So she sent for two
elderly men from the Ansar, 'AbdurRahman and Mujammi', the two sons
of Jariya, and they said to her, "Don't be afraid, for Khansa' bint
Khidam was given by her father in marriage against her will, then
the Prophet cancelled that marriage." (See Hadith No. 78)

Volume 9, Book 86, Number 100
Narrated Abu Haraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "A lady slave should not be given in marriage
until she is consulted, and a virgin should not be given in marriage
until her permission is granted." The people said, "How will she
express her permission?" The Prophet said, "By keeping silent (when
asked her consent)." Some people said, "If a man, by playing a
trick, presents two false witnesses before the judge to testify that
he has married a matron with her consent and the judge confirms his
marriage, and the husband is sure that he has never married her
(before), then such a marriage will be considered as a legal one and
he may live with her as husband."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 101
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle said, "It is essential to have the consent of a
virgin (for the marriage). I said, "A virgin feels shy." The
Prophet; said, "Her silence means her consent." Some people said,
"If a man falls in love with an orphan slave girl or a virgin and
she refuses (him) and then he makes a trick by bringing two false
witnesses to testify that he has married her, and then she attains
the age of puberty and agrees to marry him and the judge accepts the
false witness and the husband knows that the witnesses were false
ones, he may consummate his marriage."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 102
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle used to like sweets and also used to like honey, and
whenever he finished the 'Asr prayer, he used to visit his wives and
stay with them. Once he visited Hafsa and remained with her longer
than the period he used to stay, so I enquired about it. It was said
to me, "A woman from her tribe gave her a leather skin containing
honey as a present, and she gave some of it to Allah's Apostle to
drink." I said, "By Allah, we will play a trick on him." So I
mentioned the story to Sauda (the wife of the Prophet) and said to
her, "When he enters upon you, he will come near to you whereupon
you should say to him, 'O Allah's Apostle! Have you eaten Maghafir?'
He will say, 'No.' Then you say to him, 'What is this bad smell? '
And it would be very hard on Allah's Apostle that a bad smell should
be found on his body. He will say, 'Hafsa has given me a drink of
honey.' Then you should say to him, 'Its bees must have sucked from
the Al-'Urfut (a foul smelling flower).' I too, will tell him the
same. And you, O Saifya, say the same."
So when the Prophet entered upon Sauda (the following happened).
Sauda said, "By Him except Whom none has the right to be worshipped,
I was about to say to him what you had told me to say while he was
still at the gate because of fear from you. But when Allah 's
Apostle came near to me, I said to him, 'O Allah's Apostle! Have you
eaten Maghafir?' He replied, 'No.' I said, 'What about this smell?'
He said, 'Hafsa has given me a drink of honey.' I said, 'Its bees
must have sucked Al-'Urfut.' " When he entered upon me, I told him
the same as that, and when he entered upon Safiya, she too told him
the same. So when he visited Hafsa again, she said to him, "O
Allah's Apostle! Shall I give you a drink of it (honey)?" He said,
"I have no desire for it." Sauda said, Subhan Allah! We have
deprived him of it (honey)." I said to her, "Be quiet!"
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 103
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amir bin Rabi'a:
'Umar bin Al-Khattab left for Sham, and when he reached a placed
called Sargh, he came to know that there was an outbreak of an
epidemic (of plague) in Sham. Then 'AbdurRahman bin 'Auf told him
that Allah's Apostle said, "If you hear the news of an outbreak of
an epidemic (plague) in a certain place, do not enter that place:
and if the epidemic falls in a place while you are present in it, do
not leave that place to escape from the epidemic." So 'Umar returned
from Sargh.
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 104
Narrated 'Amir bin Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas:
That he heard Usama bin Zaid speaking to Sa'd, saying, "Allah's
Apostle mentioned the plague and said, 'It is a means of punishment
with which some nations were punished and some of it has remained,
and it appears now and then. So whoever hears that there is an
outbreak of plague in some land, he should not go to that land, and
if the plague breaks out in the land where one is already present,
one should not run away from that land, escaping from the plague."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 105
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet said, "The one who takes back his gift is like a dog
swallowing its own vomit, and we (believers) should not act
according to this bad example."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 106
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet has decreed that preemption is valid in all cases where
the real estate concerned has not been divided, but if the
boundaries are established and the ways are made, then there is no
preemption. A man said, "Preemption is only for the neighbor," and
then he makes invalid what he has confirmed. He said, "If someone
wants to buy a house and being afraid that the neighbor (of the
house) may buy it through preemption, he buys one share out of one
hundred shares of the house and then buys the rest of the house,
then the neighbor can only have the right of preemption for the
first share but not for the rest of the house; and the buyer may
play such a trick in this case."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 107
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid:
Al-Miswar bin Makhrama came and put his hand on my shoulder and I
accompanied him to Sa'd. Abu Rafi' said to Al-Miswar, "Won't you
order this (i.e. Sa'd) to buy my house which is in my yard?" Sa'd
said, "I will not offer more than four hundred in installments over
a fixed period." Abu Rafi said, "I was offered five hundred cash but
I refused. Had I not heard the Prophet saying, 'A neighbor is more
entitled to receive the care of his neighbor,' I would not have sold
it to you." The narrator said, to Sufyan: Ma'mar did not say so.
Sufyan said, "But he did say so to me." Some people said, "If
someone wants to sell a house and deprived somebody of the right of
preemption, he has the right to play a trick to render the
preemption invalid. And that is by giving the house to the buyer as
a present and marking its boundaries and giving it to him. The buyer
then gives the seller one-thousand Dirham as compensation in which
case the preemptor loses his right of preemption."
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid: Abu Rafi' said that Sa'd offered him
four hundred Mithqal of gold for a house. Abu Rafi ' said, "If I had
not heard Allah's Apostle saying, 'A neighbor has more right to be
taken care of by his neighbor,' then I would not have given it to
you." Some people said, "If one has bought a portion of a house and
wants to cancel the right of preemption, he may give it as a present
to his little son and he will not be obliged to take an oath."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 108
Narrated Abu Humaid As-Sa'idi:
Allah's Apostle appointed a man called Ibn Al-Lutabiyya to collect
the Zakat from Bani Sulaim's tribe. When he returned, the Prophet
called him to account. He said (to the Prophet, 'This is your money,
and this has been given to me as a gift." On that, Allah's Apostle
said, "Why didn't you stay in your father's and mother's house to
see whether you will be given gifts or not if you are telling the
truth?" Then the Prophet addressed us, and after praising and
glorifying Allah, he said: "Amma Ba'du", I employ a man from among
you to manage some affair of what Allah has put under my custody,
and then he comes to me and says, 'This is your money and this has
been given to me as a gift. Why didn't he stay in his father's and
mother's home to see whether he will be given gifts or not? By
Allah, not anyone of you takes a thing unlawfully but he will meet
Allah on the Day of Resurrection, carrying that thing. I do not want
to see any of you carrying a grunting camel or a mooing cow or a
bleating sheep on meeting Allah." Then the Prophet raised both his
hands till the whiteness of his armpits became visible, and he said,
"O Allah! Haven't I have conveyed (Your Message)?" The narrator
added: My eyes witnessed and my ears heard (that Hadith).
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 109
Narrated Abu Rafi':
The Prophet said, "The neighbor has more right to be taken care of
by his neighbor (than anyone else)." Some men said, "If one wants to
buy a house for 20,000 Dirhams then there is no harm to play a trick
to deprive somebody of preemption by buying it (just on paper) with
20,000 Dirhams but paying to the seller only 9,999 Dirhams in cash
and then agree with the seller to pay only one Dinar in cash for the
rest of the price (i.e. 10,001 Dirhams). If the preemptor offers
20,000 Dirhams for the house, he can buy it otherwise he has no
right to buy it (by this trick he got out of preemption). If the
house proves to belong to somebody else other than the seller, the
buyer should take back from the seller what he has paid, i.e., 9,999
Dirhams and one Dinar, because if the house proves to belong to
somebody else, so the whole bargain (deal) is unlawful. If the buyer
finds a defect in the house and it does not belong to somebody other
than the seller, the buyer may return it and receive 20,000 Dirhams
(instead of 9999 Dirham plus one Dinar) which he actually paid.' Abu
'Abdullah said, "So that man allows (some people) the playing of
tricks amongst the Muslims (although) the Prophet said, 'In dealing
with Muslims one should not sell them sick (animals) or bad things
or stolen things."
Volume 9, Book 86, Number 110
Narrated 'Amr bin Ash-Sharid:
Abu Rafi' sold a house to Sa'd bin Malik for four-hundred Mithqal of
gold, and said, "If I had not heard the Prophet saying, 'The
neighbor has more right to be taken care of by his neighbor (than
anyone else),' then I would not have sold it to you."
