Chapter 1. The Obligation Of Jih6d 3087. It was narrated that Ibn 'Abb$s said: "When the Prophet was expelled from Makhah, AbG Bakr said to him: 'They have driven out their Prophet, verily to Allih we belong and to Him we return. They are surely doomed.' Then it was revealed: 'Permission to fight (against disbelievers) is given to those (believers) who are fought against, because they have been wronged; and surely, AllAh is able to give them (believers) victory.'[ll Then I knew that there would be fighting." Ibn 'AbbL said: "This is the first Verse that was revealed concerning fighting." (Sa(zi1t)

Comments: Jihad or striving in the cause of All* is an obligation from among the obligations of Islam. But there are various levels and categories of it. The author has made an effort to mention many of them. I',, ,*3088. It was narrated from Ibn 2 2 A b&f - V . AA 'AbbL that 'Abdur-RahmAn bin ' : jg * ., : ji 'Awf and some his companions came to the Prophet % in Makkah &J?, 9$ 3 21; 2 G2 and said: "0 Messenger of AUAh! ' e, i ' 21 : d'? 2 We were respected when we were 12 &&$? 3 , , idolators and when we believed, we g ,$I:3 ~ ~ 99 .7 ; 2 $31 -, were humiliated." He said: "I have I , ,4 been commanded to pardon, so do 2 6~ !$Ij$; ,,,4, : l)U G; not fight." Then, when Allah :JG $?7 ck s3 caused us to move to Al-Madinah, , He commanded us to fight, but L l y fi . u I & ~56 , , 1.: 4: ilD they refrained. Then AllAh, the 4 ~ ~ b$ 1.,dl J~ ,., Mighty and Sublime, revealed: Have you not seen those who were $ & &$ J! 2 $$ : told to hold back th ir bands (from "\ ~s-~aliih"~~] , [,,V ] \J.:,* \,H,J -? $&I ',*' fighting) and perform (Sahib) ~ * J I ~ & ~ L \ ~- h ~ lo:.+-$~$l+j'iI~~iLfl : ~ i j .&dl &Iiig &r'v & 2 A21il 3 cyJl 21

3100. AbG Hurairah said: "I heard the Messenger of Allih g say: 'By the One in Whose hand is my soul, were it not for the fact that there are some believing men who would not feel happy to stay behind (when I go out on a campaign) and I do not have the means to provide them with mounts (so that they can join me), I would not have stayed behind from any campaign or battle in the cause of AU2h. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, I wish that I could be killed in the cause of Allih, then brought back to life, then be killed, then be brought hack to life, then be killed then be brought back to lie, then be killed."'

1. The benefit of longing for martyrdom is that he would gain the recompense, whether he dies in bed. Thus, Allih, Most High, would bestow on him the rank of the martyr. 2. We learn that it is not essenlial for evelyone to go forth to the battlefield. One should essentially pay proper regard to the means and necessities.

Chapter 4. The Superiority Of The Muj&hidin Over Those Who Do Not Go Out To Fight 3101. It was narrated that Sahl bin Sa'd said: "I saw Marwin bin AlHakam sitting and I came and sat with him. He told us that Zaid bin B i b i t told him, that the following was revealed to AUWs Messenger g: (Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home) and those who strive hard and fight in the cause of Allih), then Ibn Umm Maktiim came when he was dictating it to me (Zaid), and said: '0 Messenger of Allih! If I were able to go for Jihid I would go out for Jihrid.' Then All*, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed to him - while his thigh was against mine, and became so heaw that I thought my thigh would brekk, until (the revelation) stopped - : 'Except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame)."'['] (Sahib) Abii ' A b d u r - R m i n (An-Nad'i) said: This 'Abdur-Rahmin bin Ishiq is tolerable, while 'AbdurRahman bin Ishiq, from whom reports 'A17 bin Mushir, Abii Mu'iwiyah, and 'Abdul-WiBd bin Ziyid from An-Nu'm2n bin Sa'd he is not trustworthy. j .;r,*.wl

Comments 'Found this amazing' because for an apparently easy or effortless thing, the promise of the Paradise has been given, although in actuality it is a difficult task. This is because the knowledge or proof of contentment would emerge from actions. And to furnish evidence from action is itself a hard task.

3134. It was narrated that Abfi Ad-Dardi? said: "The Messenger of AUih said: 'Whoever establishes Salih, pays Znkih, and dies not associating anything with AUSh, he has a right from AUSh the Mighty and Sublime, that He will forgive him, whether he e m i g r a t e d , o r d i e d i n his birthplace.' We said: '0 Messenger of Allih! Shall we not tell the people about it so that they may rejoice?' He said: 'In Paradise there are one hundred levels, (the distance) betyeen each two of which is like (the distance) between the Heaven and the Earth; AU2h has p r e p a r e d t h e m for t h e Mz@hid?n who strive in His cause. Were it not that it would be too difficult for the believers and I cannot find mounts for them - and they do not like to stay behind if I go out (on a campaign) - I would not have stayed behind from any expedition. I wish that I could be killed then brought back to life, then killed again."' (Hasan)

It was narrated from ' A m bin Milik Al-Janbi that he heard Fadilah bin 'Ubaid sav: "I heard the Messenger of Allih ?@ say: 'I am a Za'irn - and the Za'inz is the guarantor for the o n e who believes in me and accepts Islam, and emigrates: A house on the outskirts of Paradise and a house in the middle of Paradise. And I am a guarantor, for the one who believes in me and accepts Islam, and strives in the cause of Allill: A house on the outskirts of Paradise and a house in the middle of Paradise and a house in the highest chambers of Paradise. Whoever does that and seeks goodness wherever it is, and avoids evil wherever it is, may die wherever he wants to die."' (Hasa~z)

Then he sits, waiting for h i G o n the path to ~ihlid,and he says: Will you fight in Jihad when it will cost you your life and your wealth? You will fight and be killed, and your wife will remarry, and your wealth will be divided. But he disobeys him and fights in Jihad.'

Allih, Most High, does not look at the time and the quantity. All&, Most High, sees the intention and the condition of the heart. It forms the very basis of the recompense too.

Comments Acquiiing training to fight, making ready for combat, and to remain wellequipped and prepared to counter the enemy, also constitute Jilzid.

['I According to As-Sindi, the preferred pronunciation is Al-Fanan, plural of Fatan referring to Al-Munkar and An-Nakir, while AI-Fanan would refer to As&-S&ait;n or the like,

1. Umm Harim bint Milhh was the Prophet's @ unmarriageable kin (a Mahram), related to his mother's side of the family. The Prophet's visiting

a

her frequently, sleeping at her house, her searching his sacred head for lice, etc., all are understood by the relationship. Otherwise, Allsh's Messenger g did not visit other houses of the Helpers in such a way. 2. A U a s Messenger g never had lice in his blessed head. He kept himself clean and tidy. He always remained fragrant and sweet-smelling. Her attempting to find lice in his head is linked to the customary common habit.

3174. It was narrated £ram Anas bin Milik that Umm H a r k bint W C i n said: "The Messenger of AUih g came to us and took a nap in our house, then he woke up smiling. I said: '0 Messenger of AUih, may my father and mother be ransomed for you, what has made you smile?' He said: 'I saw some people of my Ummah riding on the sea like kings on thrones.' I said: 'Pray to AUih to make me one of them.' He said: 'You will be one of them.' Then he slept again, and woke up smiling. I asked him and he said the same thing. I said:

The import of reciting the above-mentioned Verse of the Qur'in during all the three blows which the Prophet g struck is that the victory of Islam is the absolutely definite decision of All&, Most High, which would surely come to pass. No one would be able to alter it.

Chapter 1. Mentioning The Command Of The Messenger Of Allih g$Concerning Marriage, His Wives And What Allih, The Mighty And Sublime, Permitted To His Prophet When It Is Forbidden To Other People, Because Of His Virtue And High Status 3198. It was narrated that 'At2 said: "We attended the funeral of M a i d a h , the wife of the Prophet g,with Ibn 'AbbB in Sarif. Ibn 'Abbb said: 'This is Mairniinah; when you lift up her bier, do not rock it nor shake it. The Messenger of All& @ had nine wives and he used to give a share of his time to eight of them and not to one."'

(Sahib)

Comments: Maymkah's marriage, bridal escort to the Prophet's g household, and death; all these events took place in Sarf. She was laid to rest in the same tent from where she was escorted to live with the Prophet g.Maimanah was the sister of Ibn 'Abbb mother.

3199. It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbis said: "When the Messenger of Allih died he had nine wives; he used to be intimate with all of them except one,yho had given her day and night to 'A&ah." (Sahih)

The gist of the Prophet's statement is: All%, Most High, has the foreknowledge of your upcoming actions. Hence, what good will the forbidden act of castration do to you? It is, therefore, better that you should supplicate to Allih to grant you abundance or plentifulness, and do every effort to keep away from sinning.

Welcome, 0 Mamad, come tonight and stay at our place.' I said: '0 'Aniq, the Messenger of Allih @ has forbidden adultery.' She said: '0 people of the tents, this porcupine is the one who is taking your prisoners from Makkah to AlMadinah!' I headed toward (the mountain of) Al-Khandamah, and eight men came after me. They came and stood over my head, and they urinated, and their urine reached me, but All& caused them not to see me. Then I went to my companion (the prisoner) and brought him to Al-Arik, where I undid his fetters. Then I came to the Messenger of All& g and said: '0 Messenger of Allgh, shall I marry 'Aniq?' He remained silent and did not answer me, then the following was revealed: 'And the adulteress - fornicator, none manies her except an adulterer fornicator or an idolater.'['] He

In this narration, there is no explicit mention of contracting maniage with stating: "Go for adulterers/adulteresses. But the conclusion of the Prophet the one with religious disposition (bi Dhritid din)" is very much the same, that an adulteress should not be taken in marriage, because she does not possess a religions disposition. -

Thus, a sort of sharpness had developed in the temperament of the womenfolk of the Helpers. Allgh's Messenger @ had already had wives previously.

Comments: Casting epicurean glances at women is forbidden. Needfully doing so is not prohibited. Marriage is a significant essentiality. Besides, it is a companionship of the whole life. It, therefore, is appropriate to see her in order to avoid any probable fume unpleasantness. It does not, however, mean that one should go - into her house making demands.

3237. It was narrated that AlMughirah bin a u ' b a h said: "I proposed marriage to a woman during the time of the Messenger of AU2h g,and the Prophet g said: 'Have you seen her? I said: 'No.' He said: 'look at her, for that is more likely to create love between you."' (Sahib) $+&dl

The literal meaning of the tern Sha~w21is a bit ignominious. The Arabs, therefore, regarded this month ill-fated during the period of ignorance. Hence, why they used to regard the making of marriage contracts in this month as an evil omen, as some people nowadays do not consider mai~iage contracts permissible in the month of Muharram, which, according to them, is the month of mourning. But Islam does not entertain such superstitions.

Chapter 19. Proposal Of Marriage 3239. 'Amir bin &rahbll

Comments:

There is absolutely no difference of opinion concerning contracting marriage of one's non-adult or minor daughter. The disagreement, however, exists in the matter whether the daughter has the right to retain the mamage or not, when she reaches puberty. But the girl has the right to dissolve her marriage when she attains puberty, if the marriage contract was made effective by a guardian other than her father. There is consensus over it.
