Hadith 176
۞
175. Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al-Hakam, from Muawiya Bin Wahab, who has narrated the following
Abu Abdullah (asws) said: ‘The Rasool Allah (saww) did not eat whilst leaning, since he (saww) was Sent by Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic, up to his (saww) passing away. He (saww) was modest for the Sake of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic, and no one ever saw his (saww) knees is a gathering at all. And the Rasool Allah (saww) did not shake hands with a man at all by pulling his (saww) hand from his hand until the man would pull his own hand from his (saww) hands. The Rasool Allah (saww) did not recompense anyone with evil at all. Allah (azwj) the High Said to him (saww): “[23:96] Repel evil by what is best”, so he (saww) did it. And he never denied any beggar at all. If he (saww) had it with him (saww) he (saww) would give it, or else he (saww) would say: ‘Allah (azwj) will Give it’. And he (saww) did not Give anything at all on the Authorisation of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic except that Allah (azwj) Authorised that for him (saww) even if it was the Paradise, Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Authorised that for him (saww)’. He (asws) said: ‘And his (saww) brother (Ali (asws)) from after him (saww), by the One Who (azwj) Took his (asws) soul, did not eat anything at all Prohibited in the world until he (asws) exited from it. By Allah (azwj), if two matters were presented to him (asws) in both of which was the obedience to Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic, he (asws) would take the one which was more difficult upon his (asws) body. By Allah (azwj), he (asws) freed a thousand slaves for the Sake of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic, from the work of his (asws) own hands. By Allah (azwj), no one could endure the deeds of the Rasool Allah (saww) after him (saww), apart from him (asws). By Allah (azwj), there did not descend upon the Rasool Allah (saww) any (difficulty) at all except that he (asws) was the foremost in facing it, being a reliable one from him (saww) for it. And whenever the Rasool Allah (saww) sent him (asws) with his (saww) flag, so Jibraeel would fight on his (asws) right and Mikaeel on his (asws) left. Then he (asws) would not return until Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Granted victory to him (asws)’.
