*Book :* 85. Saying Something Under Compulsion (Ikraah).

085 : 073 : Narrated By Abi Huraira
The Prophet used to invoke Allah in his prayer, "O Allah! Save 'Aiyash bin
Abi Rabi'a and Salama bin Hisham and Al-Walid bin Al-Walid; O Allah! Save
the weak among the believers; O Allah! Be hard upon the tribe of Mudar and
inflict years (of famine) upon them like the (famine) years of Joseph."

085 : 074 : Narrated By Anas
Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever possesses the (following) three qualities
will have the sweetness of faith (1): The one to whom Allah and His Apostle
becomes dearer than anything else; (2) Who loves a person and he loves him
only for Allah's Sake; (3) who hates to revert to atheism (disbelief) as he
hates to be thrown into the Fire."

085 : 075 : Narrated By Qais
I heard Sa'id bin Zaid saying, "I have seen myself tied and forced by
'Umar to leave Islam (Before 'Umar himself embraced Islam). And if the
mountain of Uhud were to collapse for the evil which you people had done to
'Uthman, then Uhud would have the right to do so." (See Hadith No. 202, Vol.
5)

085 : 076 : Narrated By Khabbab bin Al-Art
We complained to Allah's Apostle (about our state) while he was leaning
against his sheet cloak in the shade of the Ka'ba. We said, "Will you ask
Allah to help us? Will you invoke Allah for us?" He said, "Among those who
were before you a (believer) used to be seized and, a pit used to be dug for
him and then he used to be placed in it. Then a saw used to be brought and
put on his head which would be split into two halves. His flesh might be
combed with iron combs and removed from his bones, yet, all that did not
cause him to revert from his religion. By Allah! This religion (Islam) will
be completed (and triumph) till a rider (traveller) goes from San'a' (the
capital of Yemen) to Hadramout fearing nobody except Allah and the wolf lest
it should trouble his sheep, but you are impatient." (See Hadith No. 191,
Vol. 5)

085 : 077 : Narrated By Abu Huraira
While we were in the mosque, Allah's Apostle came out to us and said, "Let
us proceed to the Jews." So we went along with him till we reached
Bait-al-Midras (a place where the Torah used to be recited and all the Jews
of the town used to gather). The Prophet stood up and addressed them, "O
Assembly of Jews! Embrace Islam and you will be safe!" The Jews replied, "O
Aba-l-Qasim! You have conveyed Allah's message to us." The Prophet said,
"That is what I want (from you)." He repeated his first statement for the
second time, and they said, "You have conveyed Allah's message, O
Aba-l-Qasim. " Then he said it for the third time and added, "You should Know
that the earth belongs to Allah and His Apostle, and I want to exile you
fro,,, this land, so whoever among you owns some property, can sell it,
otherwise you should know that the Earth belongs to Allah and His Apostle."
(See Hadith No. 392, Vol. 4)

085 : 078 : Narrated By Khansa' bint Khidam Al-Ansariya
That her father gave her in marriage when she was a matron and she
disliked that marriage. So she came and (complained) to the Prophets and he
declared that marriage invalid. (See Hadith No. 69, Vol. 7)

085 : 079 : Narrated By 'Aisha
I asked the Prophet, "O Allah's Apostle! Should the women be asked for
their consent to their marriage?" He said, "Yes." I said, "A virgin, if
asked, feels shy and keeps quiet." He said, "Her silence means her consent."

085 : 080 : Narrated By Jabir
A man from the Ansar made his slave, a Mudabbar. And apart from that slave
he did not have any other property. This news reached Allah's Apostle and he
said, "Who will buy that slave from me?" So Nu'aim bin An-Nahham bought him
for 800 Dirham. Jabir added: It was a coptic (Egyptian) slave who died that
year.

085 : 081 : Narrated By Ibn 'Abbas
Regarding the Qur'anic Verse: "O you who believe! You are forbidden to
inherit women against their will." (4.19) The custom (in the Pre-Islamic
Period) was that if a man died, his relatives used to have the right to
inherit his wife, and if one of them wished, he could marry her, or they
could marry her to somebody else, or prevent her from marrying if they
wished, for they had more right to dispose of her than her own relatives.
Therefore this Verse was revealed concerning this matter.

085 : 082 : Narrated By Abu Huraira
Allah's Apostle said, "(The Prophet) Abraham migrated with his wife Sarah
till he reached a town where there was a king or a tyrant who sent a
message, to Abraham, ordering him to send Sarah to him. So when Abraham had
sent Sarah, the tyrant got up, intending to do evil with her, but she got up
and performed ablution and prayed and said, 'O Allah ! If I have believed in
You and in Your Apostle, then do not empower this oppressor over me.' So he
(the king) had an epileptic fit and started moving his legs violently."

085 : 083 : Narrated By 'Abdullah bin 'Umar
Allah's Apostle said, "A Muslim is a brother of another Muslim. So he
should neither oppress him nor hand him over to an oppressor. And whoever
fulfilled the needs of his brother, Allah will fulfil his needs."

085 : 084 : Narrated By Anas
Allah's Apostle said, "Help your brother whether he is an oppressor or an
oppressed," A man said, "O Allah's Apostle! I will help him if he is
oppressed, but if he is an oppressor, how shall I help him?" The Prophet
said, "By preventing him from oppressing (others), for that is how to help
him."
