Explaining Sahih Muslim Book 4 - Hadith 163-167 Chapter 31: Moderation When Reciting Qur'an In A Prayer When It Is to Be Recited Out Loud, And Making it Neither Too Loud nor Too Soft, And When There Is the Fear of Negative Consequences If It Is Recited Out Loud . Ibn 'Abbas reported: The word of (Allah) Great and Glorious: 'And utter not thy prayer loudly, nor be low in it" (xvii. 110) was revealed as the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) was hiding himself in Mecca. When he led his Companions in prayer he raised his voice (while reciting the) Qur'an. And when the polytheists heard that, they reviled the Qur'an and Him Who revealed it and him who brought it. Upon this Allah, the Exalted, said to His Apostle (ﷺ): Utter not thy prayer so loudly that the polytheists may hear thy recitation and (recite it) not so low that it may be inaudible to your Companions. Make them hear the Qur'an, but do not recite it loudly and seek a (middle) way betwe...

Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 140-154   It is reported on the authority of Anas that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings Be upon him) observed:   The sign of a hypocrite is the hatred against the Ansar and the sign of a believer is the love for the Ansar. ( Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 141 )   It is narrated on the authority of Anas that the Apostle (may peace and blessings be upon him) said:   The love of the Ansar is the sign of faith and hatred against them is the sign of dissemblance. ( Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 142 )   Al-Bara reported from the Messenger (may peace and blessing be upon him) that he remarked with regard to the Ansar:   "None but the believer loves them, none but the hypocrite hates them. He who loves them loves Allah and he who hates them hates Allah." I (the narrator) said: Did you hear this hadith from al-Bara'? He said: He narrated it to me. ( Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 143 )   It is r...

Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 32-38   It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) breathed his last and Abu Bakr was appointed as his successor (Caliph), those amongst the Arabs who wanted to become apostates became apostates. 'Umar b. Khattab said to Abu Bakr:   Why would you fight against the people, when the Messenger of Allah declared: I have been directed to fight against people so long as they do not say: There is no god but Allah, and he who professed it was granted full protection of his property and life on my behalf except for a right? His (other) affairs rest with Allah. Upon this Abu Bakr said: By Allah, I would definitely fight against him who severed prayer from Zakat, for it is the obligation upon the rich. By Allah, I would fight against them even to secure the cord (used for hobbling the feet of a camel) which they used to give to the Messenger of Allah (as zakat) but now they have withheld it. Umar b. Khattab rem...
