MUHAMMAD’S TEACHINGS TO MANKIND

ḤADĪTH OF THE DAY

“ Jarīr Ibn-Abdullāh urinated then performed ablution and wiped (over) his footwear(1). He was asked, "Why do you do that?" He replied, "and Why not when I saw the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, do so (i.e. wipe his footwear rather than take it off and wash his feet)." Ibrāhīm [an-Nakh'ī] said, they (i.e. scholars of ḥadīth) liked Jarīr's ḥadīth because he embraced Islām after al-Mā'idah Chapter was revealed (2). Footnotes: (1) Khuf: a leather boot or sock, much like a moccasin, that covers the entire foot and ankle. (2) In al-Mā'idah Chapter, the descrpition of ablution was revealed : "You who have believed, when you rise to [perform] prayer, wash your faces and your forearms to the elbows and wipe over your heads and [wash] your feet to the ankles" (5 [al-Mā'idah]: 6). However, since he was doing that, he must have seen the Prophet , peace and blessing of God be upon him, do so after this verse was revealed, and so it remains valid. ”

Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الرضاع باب ما جاء فى المرأة تعتق ولها زوج

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِىُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ كَانَ زَوْجُ بَرِيرَةَ عَبْدًا فَخَيَّرَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَاخْتَارَتْ نَفْسَهَا وَلَوْ كَانَ حُرًّا لَمْ يُخَيِّرْهَا.

Barīrah's husband was a bondsman [at the time she was freed], so the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, gave her the choice [to either remain with him or be separated]. She opted to be single. Had he been a free man, he would not have given her that choice.
