people other than your own, it will improve your attitude and make
you
generous to your companions. O Aktham, the best number of
companions
is four, the best number of troops on an expedition is
four hundred,
the best number of an army is four thousand, and twelve
thousand will
never be overpowered because of their small number.”

narrated that Bara’ bin ‘Azib said: “We were talking about
how,
on the Day of Badr, the Companions of the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)

crossed the river with him but a believer.”
It was

spoils of
war, it steals from it.’”

of the Christians in that.’”

we cook in the
vessels of the idolaters?’ He said: ‘Do not cook
in them.’ I said:
‘What if we need them and cannot find anything
else?’ He said: ‘Wash
them well, then cook and eat.’”
