Afterwards he went to his mosque and led his companions in prayer.

Do not do so. If any of you prays in his house and finds that the Imām has not prayed, he should pray along with him; and that will be a supererogatory prayer for him
Jābir ibn Yazīd ibn al-Aswad reported that his father prayed along with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) when he was a young boy. When he (the Prophet) had prayed, there were two people (sitting) in the corner of the mosque; they did not pray (along with the Prophet). He called for them. They were brought trembling (before him). He asked: "What prevented you from praying along with us?" They replied: "We have already prayed in our houses." He said: "Do not do so.

I went to ‘Ā’ishah and asked her to describe to me the Messenger's illness. ‘Ā’ishah said: Yes. The Prophet became seriously ill and asked whether the people had prayed. We replied: No, O Messenger of Allah! They are waiting for you
‘Ubaydullāh ibn ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Utbah reported: I went to ‘Ā’ishah and asked her to describe to me the Messenger's illness. ‘Ā’ishah said: "Yes. The Prophet became seriously ill and asked whether the people had prayed. We replied: 'No, O Messenger of Allah! They are waiting for you.' He added: 'Put water for me in a trough.'" ‘Ā’ishah added: "We did so. He took a bath and tried to get up but fainted. When he recovered, he again asked whether the people had prayed. We said: 'No, they are waiting for you, O Messenger of Allah!' He again said: 'Put water in a trough for me.' He sat down and took a bath and tried to get up but fainted again. Then he recovered and said: 'Have the people prayed?' We replied: 'No, they are waiting for you, O Messenger of Allah!' He said: 'Put water for me in the trough.' Then he sat down and washed himself and tried to get up but he fainted. When he recovered, he asked: 'Have the people prayed?' We said: 'No, they are waiting for you, O Messenger of Allah! The people were in the mosque waiting for the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) for the ‘Ishā' prayer. The Prophet sent for Abu Bakr to lead the people in the prayer. The Prophet's messenger went to Abu Bakr and said: 'The Messenger orders you to lead the people in the prayer.' Abu Bakr was a softhearted man, so he asked ‘Umar to lead the prayer but ‘Umar replied: 'You are more rightful.' So Abu Bakr led the prayer in those days. When the Prophet felt a bit better, he came out for the Zhuhr prayer with the help of two persons one of whom was Al-‘Abbās, while Abu Bakr was leading the people in the prayer. When Abu Bakr saw him, he wanted to retreat but the Prophet beckoned him not to do so and asked them to make him sit beside Abu Bakr and they did so. Abu Bakr was following the Prophet (in the prayer) and the people were following Abu Bakr. The Prophet (prayed) sitting." ‘Ubaydullāh added: "I went to ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Abbās and said: 'Shall I tell you what ‘Ā’ishah has told me about the fatal illness of the Prophet?' Ibn ‘Abbās said: 'Go ahead.' I told him her narration and he did not deny anything of it but asked whether ‘Ā’ishah told me the name of the second person (who helped the Prophet along with Al-‘Abbās. I said. 'No.' He said: 'He was ‘Ali (ibn Abi Tālib).'"
O people, you cause aversion to others. Whoever leads people in prayer should make it brief, for among them are the sick, the weak, and those with needs to be fulfilled
Abu Mas‘ūd al-Ansāri (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man said: "O Messenger of Allah, I would almost fail to attend the prayer because so-and-so prolongs it when he leads us." I never saw the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) more angry in giving admonition than he was on that day. He said: "O people, you cause aversion to others. Whoever leads people in prayer should make it brief, for among them are the sick, the weak, and those with needs to be fulfilled."
Offer this prayer at this time and that prayer at that time. When the time for a prayer is due, let one of you call the Adhān, and let the one who knows the Qur’an most lead the prayer
Ayyūb reported from Abu Qilābah from ‘Amr ibn Salamah: Abu Qilābah said to me: "Will you not meet and ask him (‘Amr ibn Salamah)" I said: "I met him and asked him, so he said: ‘We were at a water place that was a thoroughfare for people. Riders would pass by us, and we would ask them: 'What are people up to? What are people up to? Who is that man?' They would say: 'He claims that Allah has sent him and revealed to him. Or Allah has revealed such and such.'' So I used to memorize that speech, as if it was instilled in my heart. Meanwhile, the Arabs (Bedouin tribes) delayed their conversion to Islam until the Conquest. So they would say: 'Leave him and his people, for indeed if he prevails over them, he is a true Prophet.' When the incident of the people of Conquest took place, every tribe rushed to embrace Islam, and my father hurried to embrace Islam before (the rest of) my tribe. When he came back, he said: 'By Allah, I have come to you from the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) for sure! He said: 'Offer this prayer at this time and that prayer at that time. When the time for a prayer is due, let one of you call the Adhān, and let the one who knows the Qur’an most lead the prayer.'' They checked and found none with more Qur’an than me, for I used to meet the riders. Therefore, they made me to lead them, when I was only six or seven years old. I had on me a garment, which would recede when I would prostrate. A lady from the tribe thus said: 'Will you not cover the bottom of your reader from us?' So they bought (a piece of cloth) and cut me an apparel. I had never been so happy with anything as I was with that apparel."
The one who is the most versed in Allah's Book should lead the people in prayer
Abu Mas‘ūd al-Ansāri (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: “The one who is the most versed in Allah's Book should lead the people in prayer. If they are equally versed in reciting it, then the one who is the most knowledgeable about the Sunnah; and if they are equal regarding the Sunnah, then the earliest one to emigrate; if they emigrated at the same time, then the earliest one to embrace Islam. No man must lead another in prayer where the latter has authority, or sit in his place in his house without his permission.”
O Allah, place light in my heart, light in my sight, light in my hearing, light on my right, light on my left, light above me, light below me, light in front of me, light behind me, make light for me
Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I stayed overnight in the house of my aunt Maymūnah. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) got up in the night and went to answer the call of nature, then he washed his face and hands, then he slept. Then he got up again and opened the water skin, then he performed ablution from a hanging water skin, not using much water, yet he washed all the parts properly and then offered the prayer. I got up and straightened my back in order that the Prophet might not feel that I was watching him, and then I performed the ablution, and when he got up to offer the prayer, I stood on his left. He caught hold of my ear and brought me over to his right side. He offered thirteen Rak‘ahs in all and then laid down and slept till he started snoring as he used to do when he slept. In the meantime Bilāl informed the Prophet of the approaching time for the (Fajr) prayer, and the Prophet offered the prayer without performing new ablution. He used to say in his invocation: "O Allah, place light in my heart, light in my sight, light in my hearing, light on my right, light on my left, light above me, light below me, light in front of me, light behind me, make light for me!"

عن البراء رضي الله عنه قال: "كان أصحاب محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا كان الرجل صائمًا فحضر الإفطار فنام قبل أن يفطر لم يأكل ليلته ولا يومه حتى يمسي، وإن قيس بن صِرْمة الأنصاري كان صائمًا، فلما حضر الإفطار أتى امرأته، فقال لها: أعندك طعام؟ قالت: لا، ولكن أنطلق فأطلب لك. وكان يومه يعمل، فغلبته عيناه، فجاءته امرأته، فلما رأته قالت: خيبة لك. فلما انتصف النهار غشي عليه، فذُكر ذلك للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فنزلت هذه الآية: {أحل لكم ليلة الصيام الرفث إلى نسائكم} [البقرة: 187] ففرحوا بها فرحًا شديدًا، ونزلت: {وكلوا واشربوا حتى يتبين لكم الخيط الأبيض من الخيط الأسود} [البقرة: 187]".
كان الناس إذا صلوا العتمة حرم عليهم الطعام والشراب والنساء وصاموا إلى القابلة
عن ابن عباس {يا أيها الذين آمنوا كتب عليكم الصيام كما كتب على الذين من قبلكم} [البقرة: 183] فكان الناس على عهد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا صلوا العتمة حرم عليهم الطعام والشراب والنساء، وصاموا إلى القابلة، فاختان رجل نفسه، فجامع امرأته وقد صلى العشاء ولم يفطر، فأراد الله عز وجل أن يجعل ذلك يسرًا لمن بقي ورخصة ومنفعة، فقال سبحانه: {علم الله أنكم كنتم تختانون أنفسكم} الآيه [البقرة: 187]. وكان هذا مما نفع الله به الناس، ورخص لهم ويسر.
يا أيها الناس إنكم لتأوَّلون هذه الآية هذا التأويل وإنما أنزلت هذه الآية فينا معشر الأنصار
عن أسلم أبي عمران التجيبي، قال: كنا بمدينة الروم، فأخرجوا إلينا صفا عظيما من الروم، فخرج إليهم من المسلمين مثلهم أو أكثر، وعلى أهل مصر عقبة بن عامر، وعلى الجماعة فضالة بن عبيد، فحمل رجل من المسلمين على صف الروم حتى دخل فيهم، فصاح الناس وقالوا: سبحان الله يلقي بيديه إلى التهلكة. فقام أبو أيوب الأنصاري فقال: يا أيها الناس إنكم لتأوَّلون هذه الآية هذا التأويل، وإنما أنزلت هذه الآية فينا معشر الأنصار لما أعز الله الإسلام وكثر ناصروه، فقال بعضنا لبعض سرا دون رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: إن أموالنا قد ضاعت، وإن الله قد أعز الإسلام وكثر ناصروه، فلو أقمنا في أموالنا، فأصلحنا ما ضاع منها. فأنزل الله تعالى على نبيه صلى الله عليه وسلم يرد علينا ما قلنا: {وأنفقوا في سبيل الله ولا تلقوا بأيديكم إلى التهلكة}، فكانت التهلكة الإقامة على الأموال وإصلاحها، وتركنا الغزو فما زال أبو أيوب، شاخصا في سبيل الله حتى دفن بأرض الروم.
كان أهل اليمن يحجون ولا يتزودون ويقولون: نحن المتوكلون
عن ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما، قال: "كان أهل اليمن يحجون ولا يتزودون، ويقولون: نحن المتوكلون، فإذا قدموا مكة سألوا الناس، فأنزل الله تعالى: {وتزودوا فإن خير الزاد التقوى} [البقرة: 197].
لك حج
عن أبي أمامة التيمي قال: كنت رجلًا أكري في هذا الوجه، وكان ناس يقولون: إنه ليس لك حج، فلقيت ابن عمر، فقلت: يا أبا عبد الرحمن، إني رجل أكري في هذا الوجه، وإن ناسًا يقولون: إنه ليس لك حج. فقال ابن عمر: أليس تُحرِم وتلبي وتطوف بالبيت وتُفيض من عرفات وترمي الجمار؟ قال: قلت: بلى. قال: فإن لك حجًّا، جاء رجل إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فسأله عن مثل ما سألتني عنه، فسكت عنه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فلم يجبه، حتى نزلت هذه الآية: {ليس عليكم جناح أن تبتغوا فضلًا من ربكم} [البقرة: 198] فأرسل إليه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وقرأ عليه هذه الآية، وقال: "لك حج".
نزلت هذه الآية: {حافظوا على الصلوات وصلاة العصر}، فقرأناها ما شاء الله
عن شقيق بن عقبة عن البراء بن عازب قال: نزلت هذه الآية: {حافظوا على الصلوات وصلاة العصر}، فقرأناها ما شاء الله، ثم نسخها الله، فنزلت: {حافظوا على الصلوات والصلاة الوسطى} [البقرة: 238]، فقال رجل كان جالسًا عند شقيق له: هي إذن صلاة العصر، فقال البراء: قد أخبرتك كيف نزلت، وكيف نسخها الله، والله أعلم.
لما أصيب إخوانكم بأحد جعل الله أرواحهم في جوف طير خضر ترد أنهار الجنة
عن ابن عباس قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : "لما أصيب إخوانكم بأحد جعل الله أرواحهم في جوف طير خضر تَرِدُ أنهار الجنة، تأكل من ثمارها، وتأوي إلى قناديل من ذهب معلَّقة في ظل العرش، فلما وجدوا طيب مأكلهم ومشربهم ومَقِيلهم، قالوا: من يبلغ إخواننا عنا أنا أحياء في الجنة نُرزِق، لئلا يزهدوا في الجهاد ولا يَنكِلوا عند الحرب؟ فقال الله تعالى: أنا أبلغهم عنكم، قال: فأنزل الله عز وجل: {ولا تحسبن الذين قتلوا في سبيل الله أمواتا} [آل عمران: 169] إلى آخر الآية".
يا رسول الله، لو أستطيع الجهاد لجاهدت
عن زيد بن ثابت أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أملى عليه: {لا يستوي القاعدون من المؤمنين} {والمجاهدون في سبيل الله} [النساء: 95] " قال: فجاءه ابن أم مكتوم وهو يُمِلُّها عليَّ، فقال: يا رسول الله، لو أستطيع الجهاد لجاهدت -وكان رجلًا أعمى- فأنزل الله تبارك وتعالى على رسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وفخذه على فخذي، فثقلت علي حتى خفت أن تَرُضَّ فخذي، ثم سُرِّيَ عنه، فأنزل الله عز وجل: {غير أولي الضرر} [النساء: 95].
من فعل كذا وكذا فله من النفل كذا وكذا
عن ابن عباس قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يوم بدر: "من فعل كذا وكذا فله من النفل كذا وكذا" قال: فتقدم الفتيان ولزم المشيخة الرايات فلم يبرحوها، فلما فتح الله عليهم، قال المَشْيَخة: كنا رِدْءًا لكم، لو انهزمتم لَفِئْتُم إلينا، فلا تذهبوا بالمغنم ونبقى، فأبى الفتيان وقالوا: جعله رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لنا، فأنزل الله عز وجل: {يسألونك عن الأنفال قل الأنفال لله والرسول} [الأنفال: 1] إلى قوله: {كما أخرجك ربك من بيتك بالحق وإن فريقا من المؤمنين لكارهون} [الأنفال: 5] يقول: فكان ذلك خيرًا لهم، فكذلك أيضًا، فأطيعوني، فإني أعلم بعاقبة هذا منكم.
{Do you consider giving water to the pilgrims and maintaining the Sacred Mosque as equal to believing in Allah and the Last Day} [Surat at-Tawbah: 19] to the end of the verse
An-Nu‘mān ibn Bashīr (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported: I was standing by the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when a man said: I do not care if I do no other deed after becoming Muslim except that I give water to the pilgrims. Another said: I do not care if I do no other deed after becoming Muslim except that I maintain the Sacred Mosque. And another said: Jihad in the cause of Allah is better than what you have said. ‘Umar rebuked them and said: Do not raise your voices near the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)—it is Friday! But when I have prayed the Friday prayer, I will go in and ask him about what you have differed on. Then Allah Almighty revealed: {Do you consider giving water to the pilgrims and maintaining the Sacred Mosque as equal to believing in Allah and the Last Day} [Surat at-Tawbah: 19] to the end of the verse.
