Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 3639
Narrated byAbdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As
I used to write everything which
I heard from the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him). I intended (by it) to
memorise it. The Quraysh prohibited me
saying: Do you write
everything that you hear from him while the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon
him) is a human being: he speaks in anger and pleasure?
So I stopped writing, and
mentioned it to the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him). He signalled with his
finger to him mouth and said: Write, by Him
in Whose hand my soul lies,
only right comes out from it.
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
1.113 Narrated byAbu Huraira
There is none among the
companions of the Prophet who has narrated more Hadiths than I except 'Abdullah
bin Amr (bin Al-'As) who used to write them
and I never did the same.
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
1.118 Narrated byAbu Huraira
People say that I have
narrated many Hadiths (the Prophet's narration). Had it not been for two verses
in the Qur'an, I would not have narrated a single
Hadith, and the verses are:
"Verily those who conceal
the clear sign and the guidance which We have sent down . . . (up to) Most
Merciful." (2.159-160). And no doubt our Muhajir
(emigrant) brothers used to be
busy in the market with their business (bargains) and our Ansari brothers used
to be busy with their property
(agriculture). But I (Abu Huraira)
used to stick to Allah's Apostle contented with what will fill my stomach and I
used to attend that which
they used not to attend and I
used to memorize that which they used not to memorize.
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
3.263 Narrated byAbu Huraira
You people say that Abu
Huraira tells many narrations from Allah's Apostle and you also wonder why the
emigrants and Ansar do not narrate from Allah's
Apostle as Abu Huraira does.
My emigrant brothers were busy in the market while I used to stick to Allah's
Apostle content with what fills my stomach;
so I used to be present when
they were absent and I used to remember when they used to forget, and my Ansari
brothers used to be busy with their
properties and I was one of
the poor men of Suffa. I used to remember the narrations when they used to
forget. No doubt, Allah's Apostle once said,
"Whoever spreads his
garment till I have finished my present speech and then gathers it to himself,
will remember whatever I will say." So, I spread my
colored garment which I was
wearing till Allah's Apostle had finished his saying, and then I gathered it to
my chest. So, I did not forget any of that
narrations.
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
3.540 Narrated byAbu Huraira
The people say that Abu
Huraira narrates too many narrations. In fact Allah knows whether I say the
truth or not. They also ask, "Why do the emigrants
and the Ansar not narrate as
he does?" In fact, my emigrant brethren were busy trading in the markets,
and my Ansar brethren were busy with their
properties. I was a poor man
keeping the company of Allah's Apostle and was satisfied with what filled my
stomach. So, I used to be present while they
(i.e. the emigrants and the
Ansar) were absent, and I used to remember while they forgot (the Hadith). One
day the Prophet said, "Whoever spreads his
sheet till I finish this
statement of mine and then gathers it on his chest, will never forget anything
of my statement." So, I spread my covering sheet
which was the only garment I
had, till the Prophet finished his statement and then I gathered it over my
chest. By Him Who had sent him (i.e. Allah's
Apostle) with the truth, since
then I did not forget even a single word of that statement of his, until this
day of mine. By Allah, but for two verses
in Allah's Book, I would never
have related any narration (from the Prophet). (These two verses are):
"Verily! Those who conceal the clear signs
and the guidance which we have
sent down .....(up to) the Merciful." (2.159-160)
Al-Muwatta Hadith
Hadith 47.11
Anger
Malik related to me from Ibn
Shihab from Humayd ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf that a man came to the Messenger
of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, and said,
"Messenger of Allah, teach me some words which I can live by. Do not make
them too much for me, lest I forget." The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "Do not be angry."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
9.452 Narrated byAl Araj
Abu Huraira said, "You
people claim that Abu Huraira narrates many narrations of Allah's Apostle. (Anyhow)
with Allah will be our appointment.
I was a poor man, and used to
stick to Allah's Apostle contented with what will fill my stomach, and the
Muhajirin (emigrants) used to be busy trading
in the markets, and the Ansar
used to be busy looking after their properties. One day I heard Allah's Apostle
saying, 'Who will spread his
Rida' (a garment covering the
upper part of the body) till I finished my speech and then fold it, (i.e. wrap
it over your body), in which case he
will never forget anything he
had heard from me." So I spread my garment which I was wearing; and by Him
Who sent Muhammad with the Truth, ever
since, I have never forgotten
whatever I heard from him (the Prophet)." (See, Hadith No. 119, Vol. 1)
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
4.841 Narrated byAbu Huraira
I said, "O Allah's
Apostle! I hear many narrations from you but I forget them." He said,
"Spread your covering sheet." I spread my sheet and he moved
both his hands as if scooping
something and emptied them in the sheet and said, "Wrap it." I
wrapped it round my body, and since then I have never
forgotten a single Hadith.
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
6.559 Narrated byAbdullah
The Prophet said, "Why
does anyone of the people say, 'I have forgotten such-and-such Verses (of the
Qur'an)?' He, in fact, is caused (by Allah) to
forget."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
1.119 Narrated byAbu Huraira
I said to Allah's Apostle "I hear many narrations (Hadiths) from you but I forget them." Allah's Apostle said, "Spread your Rida' (garment)." I did
accordingly and then he moved
his hands as if filling them with something (and emptied them in my Rida') and
then said, "Take and wrap this sheet over
your body." I did it and
after that I never forgot any thing.
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
6.558 Narrated byAisha
Allah's Apostle heard a man
reciting the Qur'an at night, and said, "May Allah bestow His Mercy on
him, as he has reminded me of such-and-such Verses
of such-and-such Suras, which
I was caused to forget."(forgetting to recite in salat,not literally
forgetting)
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith
6.550 Narrated byAbdullah
The Prophet said, "It is
a bad thing that some of you say, 'I have forgotten such-and-such verse of the
Qur'an,' for indeed, he has been caused (by
Allah) to forget it. So you
must keep on reciting the Qur'an because it escapes from the hearts of men
faster than camel do."RECTING QURAN AND

yourselves forward before Allah and His Apostle: But fear Allah: for Allah is
He who hears and knows all things.
2 O ye who believe! raise not
your voices above the voice of the Prophet nor speak aloud to him in talk as ye
may speak aloud to one another lest your
deeds become vain and ye
perceive not.
