Abu Sa'id al-Khudri said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, forbade two types of dress and two sales transactions.
He forbade the sales transactions called mulamasa and
munabadha.*
The two types of dress are samma' ** and wrapping oneself up in
garment while sitting down [with the legs drawn up] without anything covering
the private parts."
'Abdullah ibn 'Amr reported his fasting was mentioned to the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. He said, "The Prophet,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came to visit me and I threw him
a leather cushion stuffed with palm fibre, but he sat on the ground. The
cushion remained between me and him. He asked me, 'Are three days every
month enough for you?' I said, 'Messenger of Allah!' He said, 'Five?' I
said, 'Messenger of Allah!' He said, Eleven?' I said, 'Messenger of Allah!'
Then he said, 'Do not exceed the fast of Da'ud. Half of the time. Fast
one day and break the fast the next.'"
'Abdullah ibn Busr reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, passed by 'Abdullah's father who threw the Prophet
a rug on which he sat.
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُسْرٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَرَّ عَلَى أَبِيهِ فَأَلْقَى لَهُ قَطِيفَةً فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهَا
Hadith 1178
Hasan — Al-Albani
Squatting
Qayla related, "I saw the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, sitting squatting. When I saw the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, humble in his form of sitting, I trembled from fear."
Salim ibn Jabir al-Hujaymi said, "I came up to the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, when he was wrapped up in a cloak
whose edges were cover his feet. I said, 'Messenger of Allah, advise me.'
He said, 'You must have fearful awareness of Allah. Do not scorn anything
correct, even pouring water from your bucket into the bucket of someone
else who asks you for water or talking to your brother with a happy face.
Beware of dragging your waist-wrapper - it is part of arrogance and
Allah does not like it. If a man blames you for something he knows about
you, do not blame him for anything you know of him. Leave him to his own
evil. You will have your reward. Do not abuse anything.'"
It is related that Abu Hurayra said, "I never sae al-Hasan without
my eyes overflowing with tears. That is because the Prophet, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, went out one day and he found me in the
mosque. He took my hand and I went along with him. He did not speak to
me until we reached the market of Banu Qaynuqa'. He walked around it and
looked. Then he left and I left with him until we reached the mosque. He
sat down and wrapped himself in his garment. Then he said, 'Where is the
little one? Call the little one to me.' Hasan came running and jumped into
his lap. Then he put his hand in his beard. Then the Prophet, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, opened his mouth and put his mouth in his
mouth. Then he said, O Allah, I love him, so love him and the one who loves
him!'"
Anas ibn Malik related that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, prayed Dhuhr with them. When he said the taslim, he stood
on the minbar and talked about the Final Hour. He mentioned terrible things
about it. Then he said, 'Whoever wants to ask about something should ask
about it. By Allah, whatever you ask me about, I will tell you as long
as I am in this place.' People wept a great deal when they heard the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say that. The Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, repeated frequently,
'Ask.' 'Umar knelt on knees and said, 'We are content with Allah as
Lord, with Islam as (the) deen, and with Muhammad as Messenger.' The Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, was silent when 'Umar said that. Then
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
'Better! By the One in Whose hand the soul of Muhammad is, I have been
shown the Garden and the Fire inside this garden while I was praying. I
have not seen any good and evil such as I have seen this day.'"

Sahih — Al-Albani
Lying down
'Abdullah ibn Zayd ibn 'Asim al-Mazini said, "I saw him." Malik
ibn Isma'il asked Ibn 'Uyayna (who had transmitted this to him), "The Prophet,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace?" He replied, "Yes, lying down
with one of his feet over the other."
حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الزُّهْرِيَّ يُحَدِّثُهُ عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُهُ قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ نَعَمْ مُسْتَلْقِيًا وَاضِعًا إِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى الأُخْرَى

Lying down
Al-Miswar said, "I saw 'Abdu'r-Rahman ibn 'Awf lying down with
one of his feet over the other."
Ibn Tikhfa al-Ghifari reported that his father told him that he
had been one of the People of the Bench. He told him, "I was sleeping in
the mosque during the last part of the night, lying on my stomach. Someone
came to me and moved me with his foot, saying, 'Get up. This is a manner
of lying down which Allah hates.' I raised my head and the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, was standing by my head."
Abu Umama reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, passed by a man in the mosque who was lying on
his front. He kicked him with his foot and said, "Get up. It is the sleep
of Jahannam."
Ibn 'Umar said, "the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, 'None of you should eat with his left hand nor drink with
his left hand. Shaytan eats and drinks with his left hand.'"
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم لاَ يَأْكُلُ أَحَدُكُمْ بِشِمَالِهِ وَلاَ يَشْرَبَنَّ بِشِمَالِهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ وَيَشْرَبُ بِشِمَالِهِ قال كان نافع يزيد فيها ((ولا يأخذ بها ولا يعطي بها))
Hadith 1190
Da'if — Al-Albani
Where you should place your sandals when you sit
Ibn 'Abbas said, "Part of the sunna is that when a man sits down,
he removes his sandals and puts them at his side."
Abu Umama said, "Shaytan comes to one of you in bed after his
family has covered him and wished him good night. He throws sticks, stones
or other things on him to make him angry with his family. When he feels
that, he should not get angry with his family.' He said, 'It is part of
the work of Shaytan.'"
'Ali reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "If anyone spends the night on the top of his house without
protection, Allah has no responsibility for (protecting) him."
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمُ بْنُ نُوحٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي حَنِيفَةَ هُوَ ابْنُ جَابِرٍ عَنْ وَعْلَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ وَثَّابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ مَنْ بَاتَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ بَيْتٍ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ حِجَابٌ فَقَدْ بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ الذِّمَّةُ قال أبو عبد الله في إسناده نظر
Hadith 1193
Da'if — Al-Albani
Someone who spends the night on a roof without
'Ali ibn 'Umara said, "Abu Ayyub al-Ansari came and went up on
the flat roof. He came down and said, 'I almost spent the night with no
protection.'"
Zuhayr reported that one of the Companions of the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "If anyone spends the night
on a flat roof (without walls) and then falls off of it and dies, no one
bears any responsibility for him. If anyone embarks on the sea when it
is fierce (i.e. stormy) and is destroyed, no one bears any responsibility
for him."
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عِمْرَانَ عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ مَنْ بَاتَ عَلَى إِنْجَارٍ فَوَقَعَ مِنْهُ فَمَاتَ بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ الذِّمَّةُ وَمَنْ رَكِبَ الْبَحْرَ حِينَ يَرْتَجُّ يَعْنِي يَغْتَلِمُ فَهَلَكَ بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ الذِّمَّةُ
