I said,"O Allah’s Apostle, I wish we took the station of Abraham as our praying place (for some of our prayers). So came the Divine Inspiration: And take you (people) the station of Abraham as a place of prayer (for some of your prayers e.g. two Rakat of Tawaf of Ka'ba)”. (2.125)

2. And as regards the (verse of) the veiling of the women, I said, ‘O Allah’s Apostle! I wish you ordered your wives to cover themselves from the men because good and bad ones talk to them.’ So the verse of the veiling of the women was revealed.

3. Once the wives of the Prophet made a united front against the Prophet and I said to them, 'It may be if he (the Prophet) divorced you, (all) that his Lord (Allah) will give him instead of you wives better than you.’ So this verse (the same as I had said) was revealed.“ (66.5).
________________________________
Also verse about performing funeral prayer for the hypocrites. ” O messenger of Allaah, are you about to pray for Abdullah ibn Ubai the man who said such and such on such and such and such day,“ The prophet smiled and continued to perform funeral prayer and Umar showed no sigh of stopping , until the prophet (sallallahu alyhi wasallam) said, "Move back, O Umar. Verily, I have been given a choice (to ask for ibn Ubai’s forgiveness or to not ask for his forgiveness), and I have made my choice. It has been said to me, (Qur'aan 9:80).”
_____________________________
4.After a short while the verse was revealed: And do not pray [the funeral prayer, O Muhammad], over any of them who has died - ever - or stand at his grave. Indeed, they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger and died while they were defiantly disobedient. Qur'aan 9:84
_______________________________
5. Once Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu told the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam that many different people visit the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam while the blessed wives of the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam are present. Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu suggested that the blessed wives of the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam should be purdah. Then the ayah was revealed , ‘And when you ask them anything of use ask it of them from behind curtain’ – Surah Ahzab v 53-

6. Regarding the captives of Battle of Badr. Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu wanted them to pay a ransom to be released.

‘They ask you regarding wine and gambling You say, ‘in both there is great sin..’ Surah alBaqra verse219
________________________________
8. When Abdullad ibn Ubay (a Munafiq) passed away then the Munafiqs asked the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam to perform his Janazah Salah. Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu said that the thought came in his heart that Abdulla bin Ubay was an enemy of Islam and it wouldn’t be proper if the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam performed his Janazah Salah.
Allah Ta’aala revealed the Ayat ,’And pray you never over any of their dead and not stand over his grave. No doubt they rejected Allah and His Messenger and died while they were disobedient.’ –Surah Tawba verse 84-
_________________________________
6. When fasting during the month of Ramadaan was first introduced, conjugal relation between husband and wife were not permitted, even at night. One morning Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu came to the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam and said he had conjugal relation with his wife.
An Ayat was then revealed,’ It is lawful for to go to your wives during the nights of fasting.’ – Surah alBaqra verse 187-
_________________________________
9. One day a Jew met Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu and told that the Jibreel (alayhis salaam) that your Prophet speaks of is our enemy. When Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu heard this he said that whoever has enmity to Allah, His Angels, His Messengers, Jibreel and Mikaeel, verily they have made enmity with Allah. As Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu said these words Allah revealed an Ayat with exactly the words viz Surah alBaqrah verse 98
_________________________________
10. Once two people were disputing so they went to Rasullullah sallAllahu alayhi wasallam to resolve their problem. The Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam gave a decision in favour of one of them. The other said lets go to Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu and ask him for a decision. When they arrived at Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu the one in whose favour Rasullullah sallAllahu alayhi wasallam had ruled, informed Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu that Rasullullah had already adjudicated in his favour but the other person wanted a decision from you. Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu went into his room and returned with his sword. He cut off the head of the one who wasn’t happy the verdict of the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam. The other complainant ran to the Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam and told him what had happened. The Holy Prophet sallAllahu alayhi wasallam that I don’t believe that Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu would kill a believer.
The Ayat was revealed, ‘Then O Beloved by your Lord they shall not be Muslims until they make you judge in all disputes among themselves then they find no impediment in their hearts concerning whatever you decide and accept from the eve of their hearts.’ Surah Nisaa verse 65
All this helps us to understand that Hadrath Umar radi Allahu anhu is indeed a blessed personality and his decisions have time and again been certified by the Quran.

Allah's Apostle was the most generous of all the people, and he used to reach the peak in generosity in the month of Ramadan when Gabriel met him. Gabriel used to meet him every night of Ramadan to teach him the Qur'an.

And he said about Surah Al-Mulk (67) in a similar manner. [Part of Hadith - 2176]

Abdullah ibn Umar reported that Allah's Messenger (pbuh) mentioned the two angels of the grave so Umar asked "Is our reason preseved with us then oh Messenger of God? He (pbuh) replied "Yes, as is your present state" then Umar said "In that case I would throw a stone into the angel's mouth! meaning (my answer will be so convincing the angel will be dumfounded]" [Targhib wal Tarhib]

والذى نفسى بيده ما أنزلت فى التوراة ولا فى الإنجيل ولا فى الزبور ولا فى الفرقان مثلها

So what do you think of him who acts according to this?!” [Musnad aHmad, Vol 4, Page 446]

Narrated Anas: The Prophet said, "When a human being is laid in his grave and his companions return and he even hears their foot steps, two angels come to him and make him sit and ask him: What did you use to say about this man, Muhammad ? He will say: I testify that he is Allah's slave and His Apostle. Then it will be said to him, 'Look at your place in the Hell-Fire. Allah has given you a place in Paradise instead of it.' ?The Prophet added, "The dead person will see both his places. But a non-believer or a hypocrite will say to the angels, 'I do not know, but I used to say what the people used to say! It will be said to him, 'Neither did you know nor did you take the guidance (by reciting the Quran).' Then he will be hit with an iron hammer between his two ears, and he will cry and that cry will be heard by whatever approaches him except human beings and Djinns." [Sahih Bukhari.

It is narrated by Imam Abdur Razaq from Mua'mar, from Ibn al-Manqadr, from Jabir ibn `Abd Allah who said to the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) : "O Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم), may my father and mother be sacrificed for you, tell me of the first thing Allah created before all things." He (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) said: "O Jabir, the first thing Allah created was the light of your Prophet from His (created) light, and that light remained (lit. "turned") in the midst of His Power for as long as He wished, and there was not, at that time, a Tablet or a Pen or a Paradise or a Fire or an angel or a heaven or an earth.
And when Allah wished to create creation, he divided that Light into four parts and from the first made the Pen, from the second the Tablet, from the third the Throne, [and from the fourth everything else]....

روى عبد الرزاق -فيما قيل- عن جابر رضي الله عنه قال: "قلت: يا رسول الله بأبي أنت وأمّي أخبرني عن أول شىء خلقه الله تعالى قبل الأشياء؟ قال: يا جابر إن الله تعالى خلق قبل الأشياء نور نبيّك من نوره فجعل ذلك النور يدور بالقدرة حيث شاء الله ولم يكن في ذلك الوقت لوح ولا قلم ولا جنّة ولا نار ولا ملك ولا سماء ولا أرض ولا شمس ولا قمر ولا جني ولا إنسي، فلما أراد الله أن يخلق الخلق قسّم ذلك النور أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الجزء الأول القلم، ومن الثاني اللوح، ومن الثالث العرش، ثم قسم الجزء الرابع أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الجزء الأول حملة العرش، ومن الثاني الكرسي، ومن الثالث باقي الملائكة، ثم قسّم الرابع أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الأول السموات، ومن الثاني الأرضين، ومن الثالث الجنّة والنار، ثم قسم الرابع أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الأول نور أبصار المؤمنين، ومن الثاني نور قلوبهم وهي المعرفة بالله، ومن الثالث نور أنسهم وهو التوحيد لا إله إلا الله محمّد رسول الل
"O Prophet of Allah (sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam)! My parents be sacrificed upon you, what did the Almighty Allah first create?"
The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) replied: "Allah first created my Noor (Light) of His Noor.
This Noor traveled about according to the Will of Allah. At that time, there was no Heaven, Hell, Lawh (Divine Tablet), Pen, Earth, Skies, Sun, Moon, Jinn or Human Beings.
When He decided to create, He divided that Noor into four parts.
From one part He created the Pen,
from the second, the Lawh and from the third, he made the Arsh (Throne). He divided the fourth part into a further four parts. From one, He created those Angels who carry the Arsh, from the second, the Kursi (Divine Chair) and from the third, He created the Angels. He again divided the remaining parts into a further four parts. From one, He created the skies. The second was used in creating the planets. From the third, Heaven and Earth were created. Once again, He divided the fourth part into a further four parts. From one part He created the power with which the believers see.

روى عبد الرزاق -فيما قيل- عن جابر رضي الله عنه قال: "قلت: يا رسول الله بأبي أنت وأمّي أخبرني عن أول شىء خلقه الله تعالى قبل الأشياء؟ قال: يا جابر إن الله تعالى خلق قبل الأشياء نور نبيّك من نوره فجعل ذلك النور يدور بالقدرة حيث شاء الله ولم يكن في ذلك الوقت لوح ولا قلم ولا جنّة ولا نار ولا ملك ولا سماء ولا أرض ولا شمس ولا قمر ولا جني ولا إنسي، فلما أراد الله أن يخلق الخلق قسّم ذلك النور أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الجزء الأول القلم، ومن الثاني اللوح، ومن الثالث العرش، ثم قسم الجزء الرابع أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الجزء الأول حملة العرش، ومن الثاني الكرسي، ومن الثالث باقي الملائكة، ثم قسّم الرابع أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الأول السموات، ومن الثاني الأرضين، ومن الثالث الجنّة والنار، ثم قسم الرابع أربعة أجزاء فخلق من الأول نور أبصار المؤمنين، ومن الثاني نور قلوبهم وهي المعرفة بالله، ومن الثالث نور أنسهم وهو التوحيد لا إله إلا الله محمّد رسول الل
"O Prophet of Allah (sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam)! My parents be sacrificed upon you, what did the Almighty Allah first create?"
The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) replied: "Allah first created my Noor (Light) of His Noor.
This Noor traveled about according to the Will of Allah. At that time, there was no Heaven, Hell, Lawh (Divine Tablet), Pen, Earth, Skies, Sun, Moon, Jinn or Human Beings.
When He decided to create, He divided that Noor into four parts.
From one part He created the Pen,
from the second, the Lawh and from the third, he made the Arsh (Throne). He divided the fourth part into a further four parts. From one, He created those Angels who carry the Arsh, from the second, the Kursi (Divine Chair) and from the third, He created the Angels. He again divided the remaining parts into a further four parts. From one, He created the skies. The second was used in creating the planets. From the third, Heaven and Earth were created. Once again, He divided the fourth part into a further four parts. From one part He created the power with which the believers see. From the second, He created in the hearts of the Believers the Noor of Marifat. From the third, He created Noor in the tongues of the Believers, so that they can read the Kalima of Tauheed".

Narrated 'Abis bin Rabia: 'Umar came near the Black Stone and kissed it and said "No doubt, I know that you are a stone and can neither benefit anyone nor harm anyone. Had I not seen Allah's Apostle kissing (and sexual intercourse with) you I would not have kissed you."(Sahih Al Bukhari:Vol. 2:Bk.26:No.667)
narrated by Zaid bin Aslam (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ) from his father who said: "Umar bin Al-Khattab (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ) addressed the Corner (Black Stone) saying, 'By Allah(سبحانہ و تعا لی) ! I know that you are a stone and can neither benefit nor harm. Had I not seen the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم) touching, I would never have touched (and kissed) you.' Then he kissed it and said, 'There is no reason for us to do Ramal (during circumambulating - Tawaf) except that we wanted to show off before the Pagans, and now Allah (سبحانہ و تعا لی) has destroyed them.' 'Umar (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ) added, '(nevertheless), the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم) did that and we do not want to leave it (i.e. Ramal).' (Bukhari book #26, Hadith #675).

Abu Abdullah Al-Qurtubi al-Maliki (d. 671 H.) said: «The Throne is a great, noble and honorable creation, there is no creation (existing) above it. Above its upper most part is nothingness (i.e. There is no existence above the Throne), and below its lowest part is Paradise; as it is its roof, according to the hadeeth narrated by Abu Hurairah –Radiyallahu anhu- that the Prophet –Sallallahu alayhi wa Sallam- said: ”If you ask Allah, then ask him the (Paradise of) Firdaws, for it is in the middle highest point of Paradise, and above it is the Throne of the Most Merciful, and from it burst the rivers of Paradise.“ It was reported by Al-Bukhari, Ibn Majah and others.» (14)

“When Allah created Paradise and Hell-fire, He sent Gabriel to Paradise, saying: ‘Look at it and at what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.’” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “So he came to it and looked at it and at what Allah had prepared therein for its inhabitants.” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “So he returned to Him and said: ‘By your glory, no one hears of it without entering it.’ So He ordered that it be encompassed by forms of hardship, and He said: ‘Return to it and look at what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants.’” The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “So he returned to it and found that it was encompassed by forms of hardship (1). Then he returned to Him and said: ‘By Your glory, I fear that no one will enter it.’ He said: ‘Go to Hell-fire and look at it and what I have prepared therein for its inhabitants;’ and he found that it was in layers, one above the other. Then he returned to Him and said: ‘By Your glory, no one who hears of it will enter it.’ So He ordered that it be encompassed by lusts. Then He said: ‘Return to it.’ And he returned to it and said: ‘By Your glory, I am frightened that no one will escape from entering it.’

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:
“Allah Almighty has said:
‘The son of Adam denied Me and he had no right to do so. And he reviled Me and he had no right to do so. As for his denying Me, it is his saying: ‘He will not remake me as He made me at first’ (1) - and the initial creation [of him] is no easier for Me than remaking him. As for his reviling Me, it is his saying: ‘Allah has taken to Himself a son,’ while I am the One, the Everlasting Refuge. I begot not nor was I begotten, and there is none comparable to Me.’”
Narrated Al-Mughira:
The Prophet (salallahu alayhi wasallam) said, “Allah has forbidden you (1) to be undutiful to your mothers (2) to withhold [what you should give] or (3) demand [what you do not deserve], and (4) to bury your daughters alive.
And Allah has disliked that (a) you talk too much about others (b) ask too many questions [in religion], or (c) waste your property.”
Bukhari : Book 8 : Volume 73 : Hadith 6
Ibn 'Umar (Radi Allah Anhu) reported Allah's Messenger (salallahu allayhi wasallam) as saying:
"When any one of you intends to eat (meal), he should eat with his right hand. and when he (intends) to drink he should drink with his right hand, for the Satan eats with his left hand and drinks with his left hand."

Ibn Shihab said: Ibn Hazm told me that Ibn 'Abbas and Abd Habba al-Ansari used to say that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Thereafter he ascended with me till I was taken to such a height where I heard the scraping of the pens (of Taqdir) Ibn Hazm and Anas told that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Allah then made fifty prayers obligatory for my Ummah and I returned with that and passed by Moses. Moses, (peace be upon him) said: What has thy Lord enjoined on thy people? I said: Fifty prayers have been made obligatory on them. Moses (peace be upon him) said: Return to thy Lord(فراجع ربك), for thy Ummah would not be able to bear this burden. Then I came back to my Lord(فراجعت ربي) and He remitted a portion out of that. I then again went to Moses (peace be upon him) and informed him about it He said: Return to thy Lord(راجع ربك), for thy Ummah shall not be able to bear this burden. I then went back to my Lord(فراجعت ربي) and He said: They are five and at the same time fifty, and what has been said will not be changed. I then returned to Moses and he said: Go back to thy Lord. whereupon I said: I feel ashamed of my Lord(قد استحييت من ربي) [Sahih Muslim, Hadith No. 313 – Agreed upon]
Muslim (2833) narrated from Anas ibn Maalik that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “In Paradise there is a market to which they will come every Friday. Then the north wind will blow and will blow on their faces and garments, and increase them in beauty. Then they will return to their families having increased in beauty and their families will say to them: By Allah, you have increased in beauty, and they will say: By Allah, you too have increased in beauty.”
At-Tabaraani narrated in al-Mu‘jam al-Kabeer (6717) that Anas ibn Maalik said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Jibreel came to me with something like a white mirror in his hand, on which there was a black spot. I said: ‘What is this, O Jibreel?’ He said: ‘This is Jumu‘ah (Friday); it is the master of days and we call it Yawm al-Mazeed (the day of more – cf. “There they will have all that they desire, and We have more (for them, i.e. a glance at the All-Mighty, All-Majestic)” [Qaaf 50:35]).’ I said: ‘O Jibreel, what does “more” mean?’ He said: ‘That is because your Lord has allocated a valley in Paradise that is more fragrant than white musk. When Friday comes, among the days in the hereafter, the Lord, may He be blessed and exalted, will descend from His Throne (‘Arsh) to His Kursiy, and the Kursiy will be surrounded with seats of light on which the Prophets will sit. These seats will be surrounded with footstools of gold on which the martyrs will sit. The people of the chambers will come down from the chambers and sit on sand hills of musk, and those who sit on the sand hills will not think that those who sit on the footstools and seats are any better off than them. Then the Owner of Majesty and Honour will appear and say: ‘Ask of Me.’ They will say: ‘We ask for Your good pleasure, O Lord.’ He will say: ‘It is because I am pleased with you that you are in My Paradise, and you are honoured.’ Then He will say (again): ‘Ask of Me.’ They will say all together: ‘We ask for Your good pleasure.’ He will ask them to testify that He is pleased with them. Then He will say (once more): ‘Ask of Me,’ and they will ask of Him until each one of them is finished. Then He will grant them that which no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and it has not crossed the mind of any human.”

Khansa Bint Khidam said “My father married me to his nephew, and I did not like this match, so I complained to the Messenger of Allah (May Allah bless him and grant him peace). He said to me “accept what your father has arranged.” I said “I do not wish to accept what my father has arranged.”
He said “then this marriage is invalid, go and marry whomever you wish.” I said “I have accepted what my father has arranged, but I wanted women to know that fathers have no right in their daughter’s matters (i.e. they have no right to force a marriage on them).

Narrated Jabir Ibn Abdullah (radiyallahu anhu): ‘I was with the Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam) and the time for the Asr prayer became due. We had no water with us except a little which was put in a vessel and was brought to the Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam). He put his hand into it and spread out his fingers and then said: “Come along! Hurry up! All those who want to perform ablution. The blessing is from Allah.” I saw the water gushing out from his fingers. So the people performed the ablution and drank, and I tried to drink more of that water (beyond my thirst and capacity), for I knew it was blessing. The sub-narrator said: ‘I asked Jabir: “How many persons were you then?” He replied: “We were one thousand four hundred men.” [Saheeh al-Bukharee vol: 7, no: 543 and Saheeh al-Muslim vol: 4, no: 779]
Narrated al-Abbas bin Abdul Mutallib (radiyallahu anhu) that he said to the Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam): ‘You have not been of any avail to your uncle (Abu Talib) (though) by Allah, he used to protect you and used to become angry on your behalf.’ The Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam) said: “He is in a shallow fire, and had it not been for me, he would have been in the bottom of the (Hell) Fire.” [Saheeh al-Bukharee v: 5, no: 222]
Imaam an-Nawawi (rahimahullah) said that the reply of Jibreel (alaihis-salaam): “You chose al-Fitrah” meant that he (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam) chose the religion of Islaam, i.e. “You have chosen the emblem of Islaam and Istiqamah (being steadfast on the Straight Path). The milk was a sign because it is easy to drink, good and tasty, while wine is “the mother of all evil” and a cause for cruel acts.”
The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam) also said: “…Then Jibreel (alaihis-salaam) took me until we reached Sidhrat al-Muntaha (lote tree of the utmost boundary), which was shrouded in colors, indescribable. Then I was admitted into Paradise where I found small (tents) or walls (made) of pearls and its earth was of musk.” [Saheeh al-Bukharee v: 1, no: 345] “While I was walking in Paradise (on the night of Miraaj), I saw a river, on the two banks of which there were tents made of hollow pearls. I asked, 'What is this, O Jibreel?' He said, 'That is the Kauthar, which Your Lord has given to you.” Behold! Its scent or its mud was sharp smelling musk!” (The sub-narrator, Hudba is in doubt as to the correct expression.) [Saheeh al-Bukharee v: 8, no: 583] “On the night of my Ascent to the Heaven… I also saw Malik, the gate-keeper of the (Hell) Fire and Ad-Dajjal amongst the Signs which Allah showed me.” [The Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam) then recited]: “So be not you in
doubt of meeting him when you met Moosa during the night of Miraaj over the Heavens.” [(32): 23] [Saheeh al-Bukharee v: 4, no: 462]
Narrated Abdullah ibn Mas’ood (radiyallahu anhu): “The Prophet (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam) said: “On the night of my Ascension (Miraaj) I met Ibraheem (radiyallahu anhu) and he said to me: “Muhammad (sallallahu alaihe wa-sallam), Convey my salaam to your people and tell them that Paradise is a vast plain of pure soil and sweet water and its trees cry: ‘Holy is Allah, all praise is due to Allah, there is none worthy of worship save Allah, and Allah is Great.” [at-Tirmidhee no: 1445]
Sahih Muslim Book 041, Number 7024:
Ya'qub b. 'Asim b. Urwa b. Mas'ud reported: I heard a person saying to 'Abdullah b. Amr: You say that the Last Hour would come at such and such time, whereupon he said: I had made up my mind that I would not narrate anything to you. I only said: But you would soon see after some time a very significant affair, for example the burning of the House (Ka'ba). Shu'ba said like this and 'Abdullah b Amr reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) having said: The Dajjal would appear in my Ummah. And in another hadith (the words are): None would survive who would have even a speck of faith in his heart, but he would be dead. Muhammad b. ja'far reported that Shu'ba narrated to him this hadith many a time and I also read it out to him many a time.
Narrated By Jabir bin 'Abdullah: That he heard Allah's Apostle saying, "When the people of Quraish did not believe me (i.e. the story of my Night Journey), I stood up in Al-Hijr and Allah displayed Jerusalem in front of me, and I began describing it to them while I was looking at it." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 5, Book 58, Hadith #226]
Anas bin Malik narrated that fifty prayers, were made obligatory on the Prophet on the night of mi'raj. Then they were reduced till five remained. Then, a voice called, "O Muhammad our word is never changed. For you, indeed, with these five will accrue (reward of) fifty."[Sunan Tirmidhi (1/417) No. 213, Musnad Ahmad (3/161) No. 12662, al-Bukhari (3207) and Muslim (162)]
Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: I have been given superiority over the other prophets in six respects: I have been given words which are concise but comprehensive in meaning; I have been helped by terror (in the hearts of enemies): spoils have been made lawful to me: the earth has been made for me clean and a place of worship; I have been sent to all mankind and the line of prophets is closed with me. [Sahih Muslim, Book 4, Hadith #1062]
Abu Huraira related that the Prophet said: On the night of the Miraj I came upon a group of people whose bellies were like houses. They were full of snakes which could be seen from outside their bellies. I asked Gabriel who they were, and he told me that they were the people who had practiced Riba (Interest). (Ahmad, Ibn Maja)
It was narrated that Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “On the night on which I was taken on the Night Journey (Isra’), I saw men whose lips were being cut off with scissors of fire. I said: ‘Who are these, O Jibreel?’ He said: ‘These are the khateebs from among your ummah who used to enjoin righteousness on the people and forget themselves, and they used to recite the Book but they did not understand.’” [Narrated by Ahmad, 3/120; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Saheehah (291)]
The Prophet saw other things on the night of his ascension. He saw Malik, the angel in charge of the Hellfire. Malik did not smile at the Prophet when he saw him, and the Prophet asked why. In answer to the Prophet's question, Jibril said, "Malik did not smile since the day Allah created him. Had he smiled for anyone, he would have smiled for you.
Hafiz Shamsuddin Dhahabi narrates: Ali and Fatimah (rad) say, we came to Nabi(saw), we found him crying uncontrollably, they said, oh Nabi of ALLAH (saw) what makes you cry in this manner. He(saw) said oh Ali(rad), I am recalling a moment when I went for me'raj and I ascended the heavens, on that particular night I found six categories of the women of my ummat being subjected to such form of torment that every time I think about that azaab it makes me cry, he (saw) then started to explain, I seen a women hung by her hair suspended in the depth of jahannam, her brains were boiling. Then i seen a women hung by her tongue, and the water of jahannam was being poured down her throat. Then I seen a women hung by the upper portion of her chest. Then i seen a women, her legs were tied to her chest and her hands were tied to her forehead. Then i seen one women, she was disfigured, she had the head of a swine and the body of a donkey, snakes were surrounding her. Then i seen a women in the form of a dog, and the angles were striking her.
Then Fatimah(RAD) stood up cried and embraced her father, and asked, oh Nabi of ALLAH(SAW) what were the crimes of these women that they were subjected to such forms of azaab? The Nabi of ALLAH(SAW) held his daughter and said, With regards to the women who was hung by her hair, she walked outside freely, exposing and revealing her hair to strange men. The one who was hung by her toungue, she used to verbally abuse her husband. That women who was hung by the upper portion of her chest, she was an immoral women an unchaste women smiling with strange men. That women whose legs were tied to her chest and her hands tied to her forehead, this women was very negligent with the aspecty of purity, when it came to the period after her menstural cycle, she had to purify herself so she could pray her salaah. And with regards to that women who was disfigured, she was one who carried tales and she used to lie openly. With regards to that women who was in the form of a dog, she was one who constantly reminded others about her favours and her heart is full of jealousy. [Al-Kabaair]

Narrated By 'Aisha: That she asked the Prophet , 'Have you encountered a day harder than the day of the battle) of Uhud?" The Prophet replied, "Your tribes have troubled me a lot, and the worse trouble was the trouble on the day of 'Aqaba when I presented myself to Ibn 'Abd-Yalail bin 'Abd-Kulal and he did not respond to my demand. So I departed, overwhelmed with excessive sorrow, and proceeded on, and could not relax till I found myself at Qarnath-Tha-alib where I lifted my head towards the sky to see a cloud shading me unexpectedly. I looked up and saw Gabriel in it. He called me saying, 'Allah has heard your people's saying to you, and what they have replied back to you, Allah has sent the Angel of the Mountains to you so that you may order him to do whatever you wish to these people.' The Angel of the Mountains called and greeted me, and then said, "O Muhammad! Order what you wish. If you like, I will let Al-Akh-Shabain (i.e. two mountains) fall on them." The Prophet said, "No but I hope that Allah will let them beget children who will worship Allah Alone, and will worship None besides Him." [al-Bukhari (3231) and Muslim (1795)]

Allah the Exalted said: O son of Adam, if you call upon me and place your hope in me, I will forgive you without any reservation. O son of Adam, if you have sins piling up to the clouds and then ask for my forgiveness, I will forgive you without any reservation. O son of Adam, if you come to me with enough sins to fill the earth and you meet me without associating a partner with me, I will come to you with enough forgiveness to fill the earth.

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ أَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ كَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ
Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him. Whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah hates to meet him.
Aishah said, “O Prophet of Allah, is it because of the dislike of death? For all of us dislike death.” He said:
لَيْسَ كَذَلِكِ وَلَكِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا بُشِّرَ بِرَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَانِهِ وَجَنَّتِهِ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ فَأَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَإِنَّ الْكَافِرَ إِذَا بُشِّرَ بِعَذَابِ اللَّهِ وَسَخَطِهِ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ وَكَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ
It is not like this, rather when a believer is given the glad tidings of the mercy of Allah, His pleasure, and Paradise, then he loves to meet Allah and Allah loves to meet him. When a disbeliever is given news of the punishment at the hand of Allah and hardship to be imposed by Him, he hates to meet Allah and Allah hates to meet him.

The souls of martyrs are alive in the bodies of green birds who have their nests in chandeliers hanging from the Throne of the Almighty. They eat the fruits of Paradise from wherever they wish and they nestle among these chandeliers. Once their Lord cast a glance at them and he said: Do you want anything? They said: What more could we desire? We eat the fruit of Paradise from wherever we wish. Their Lord asked them the same question three times. When they saw that they will continue to be asked, they said: O Lord, we wish that you could return our souls to our bodies so that we could be martyred in your way once again. When Allah saw that they had no needs, he left them to enjoy.

When Allah loves a servant, He calls Gabriel and says: Verily, I love this person so you should love him. Then Gabriel loves him and makes an announcement in the heavens, saying: Allah loves this person and you should love him. Thus, the dwellers of the heavens love him and he is honored in the earth. When Allah is angry with a servant, He calls Gabriel and says: I have resentment for this person, so you should resent him. Then Gabriel is resentful towards him and makes an announcement in the heavens, saying: Verily, Allah is resentful with this person, so you should resent him. Thus, they become resentful with him and he is hated in the earth.

“Four types of people will be tested on the day of judgement: a deaf man who cannot hear anything, a mad man, an old aged man and a man who died during fatrah (a period of time when no messenger was sent to people). The deaf man will say: “Oh Allah, Islam came while I cannot hear anything!”. The mad man will say: “Oh Allah, Islam came while the boys throw animals’ excrement on me!”. The old aged man will say: “Oh Allah, Islam came while I can understand nothing”. And the man who died during a fatrah will say: “Oh Allah, I witnessed no messenger from You”. Then Allah takes a promise from them to obey Him. Then He will command them to enter hell, and who enters it will find it peace and cool, and who disobeys will be dragged to hell”
(Remember) the Day when the Shin shall be laid bare (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) and they shall be called to prostrate themselves (to Allaah), but they (hypocrites) shall not be able to do so” [al-Qalam 68:42].

Jauniyya (a lady from Bani Jaun) had been brought and lodged in a house in a date-palm garden in the home of Umaima bint An-Nu'man bin Sharahil, and her wet nurse was with her.When the Prophet entered upon her, he said to her, "Give me yourself (in marriage) as a gift." She said, "Can a princess give herself in marriage to an ordinary man?" The Prophet raised his hand to pat her so that she might become tranquil. She said, "I seek refuge with Allah from you." He said, "You have sought refuge with One Who gives refuge. Then the Prophet came out to us and said, "O Abu Usaid! Give her two white linen dresses to wear and let her go back to her family."

Women are but an ‘awrah (something private to be covered). A woman might leave her house without there being any problem with her, but the Shaytân seeks her out and says [to her], “You will not pass by anyone except that you will impress/please him.” A woman puts on her clothes and is asked where she is going, to which she replies, “To visit a sick person,” or “to attend a funeral”, or “to pray in the masjid”; but a woman never worships Allâh in the way she does when she worships Him in her house.[Al-Tabarânî.

Hazrat Umar Ibn- al-Khattab R.A has reported the Beloved Messenger of Allah SAW Said:
“There are people from the servants of Allah who are neither Prophets nor Martyrs; the Prophets and Martyrs will envy them on the Day of Resurrection, for their rank from Allah, The Most High”
They (the people) asked: “Tell us, Messenger of Allah SAW, Who are they?”
He, SAW, replied: “They are people who love one another for the spirit of Allah (i.e. the Qur’an), without having any mutual kinship and property to one. I swear by Allah, their faces will glow and they will be (sitting) in (pulpit of) light. They will have no fear (on the Day) when the people will have fear, and they will not grieve when the people will grieve.” He SAW then recited the verse where Allah (S.W.T) says:
“Ala inna Awliyaha Allahi la khawfun Aalayhim wala hum yahzanoona”
"Listen carefully and no doubt there is no fear, nor any grief upon the friends of Allah." (Surah Yunus: 62).

I heard Ka'b bin Malik R.A talking after his failure to join (the Ghazwa of) Tabuk.

Sahi Bukhari, 4.752: Narrated Abu Ishaq R.A:
Al-Bara R.A was asked, "Was the face of the Prophet (as bright) as a sword?" He said, "No, but (as bright) as a moon."
The Holy Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) is the Light of Allah, he is of course a created light. Someone who believes otherwise has made the mistake of the Christians with Jesus (upon whom be peace).
The Prophet (PBUH) also said:
"I was a Prophet while Adam was still between the spirit and the body."
Imam Tirmidhi R.A narrated it and said it hasan sahih, and it is authenticated by al-Hakim 2:609 as sahih, and also narrated by Ibn Abi Shayba in his Musannaf 14:292, and al-Bukhari in his Tarikh 7:374.
The Prophet [Muhammad] said: Paradise (Heaven) and the Fire (Hell) argued, and the Fire (Hell) said: “I have been given the privilege of receiving the arrogant and the tyrants.” Paradise (Heaven) said: “What is the matter with me? Why do only the weak and the humble among the people enter me?” On that, Allah said to Paradise (Heaven): “You are My mercy which I bestow on whoever I wish of My servants.” Then Allah said to the Fire (Hell): “You are My means of punishment by which I punish whoever I wish of → My slaves ←. And (((each of you))) will have its fill.” As for the Fire (Hell), it will not be filled till Allah puts His Foot over it whereupon it will say: ‘Qati! Qati!’ (Enough! Enough!) At that time it will be filled, and its different parts will come closer to each other, and Allah will not wrong any of His created beings. As regards Paradise (Heaven), Allah will create a new creation to fill it with.” (Sahih Bukhari Volume 6, Book 60, Hadith 373)

Anas heard the Prophet (peace be upon him) say: Allah, the Exalted, has said: "O son of Adam! Certainly I shall continue to pardon thee so long as thou supplicatest Me and hopest (for My forgiveness), whatever may be thy faults and sins, I don't care. O son of Adam, even if thy sins pile up as high as the sky, and thou askest for My forgiveness, I will forgive thee. O son of Adam, if thou comest to Me with an earthful of defaults and meetest Me, not associating anything with Me, I will come to thee, with an earthful of forgiveness."

He who introduced some evil innovation which Allah and His Messenger did not approve has (a burden of sin upon him) like the sins of one who acted according to it, without their sins being mitigated thereby in the least.

He who did not respond to the host neither entered the house nor ate the feast and the master was annoyed with him. He explained: Allah is the Master; Muhammad is one who extends invitation; the house is al-Islam and the feast is Paradise.
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 161 Narrated byRabi'ah al-Jurashi
The Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him) was shown a heavenly visitant (in a dream) and it was said to him: Let your eyes sleep and your ears hear and your heart perceive. He (the Prophet) said: My eyes slept, my ears heard and my heart perceived. He (the Prophet) said: It was said to me: The master built a house, arranged feast and sent someone to issue invitations. He who responded to the host entered the house, ate the feast and the master was well-pleased with him.

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 139 Narrated byAbuHurayrah
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: When the dead body is buried in the grave the person is made to sit in his grave without entertaining any fear or agitation in his mind then it is said (to him): Which (religion) did you profess. He would say: I had been (the follower) of Islam. It would be said to him: Who is this man? He would say: He is Muhammad (Messenger of Allah) who came to us with clear signs from Allah. We testified him. It would be said to him: Have you seen Allah. He would say: It is not (within the reach of men) to see Allah. Then an opening would be made for him towards the Hell Fire and he would see parts of it consuming other parts. It would be said to him: Look towards that from which Allah saved you. Then an opening would be made for him towards the Paradise and he would cast a glance at its freshness and what it contains. It would be said to him. This is your abode, because of your firm faith which you had, on which you died and your would be resurrected (in the same condition) if Allah so wills. The evil person would be made to sit in the grave in fear and anxiety. It would be said to him: What was your religion? He would say: I do not know. It would be said to him: Who is this person? He would say: I heard people saying something which I said. Then opening would be made for him towards Paradise and he would see its freshness and what it contains. It would be said to him: Cast a glance at that which Allah has withheld from thee. Then an opening would be made towards the Hell Fire and he would look at it (and find) some parts of it consuming the other. It would be said to him: That is your abode because of your scepticism which you had and on which you died and if Allah, Exalted, so wills you will be resurrected on it.
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 130 Narrated byAbuHurayrah
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: When the dead body (of a Muslim) is buried in the grave there appear before him two Angels, both having black faces and blue eyes. One is called Munkar and the other is called Nakir and they say: Say what you have to say about this person and he will say: He is the servant of Allah and His Messenger. I bear testimony to the fact that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His Messenger and they both will say: We already knew that you would say this. Then his grave will be expanded to the extent of 4900 square cubic feet and it will be illuminated, then it will be said to him: Go to sleep and he will say: I intend to go to my family in order to inform them and they would say: Go to sleep like the sleep of a newly wedded bride whom no one awakens but one who is dearest to her amongst his family members. Only Allah would resurrect him from his resting place. If he (the dead) were a hypocrite he will say: I heard people making a statement (pertaining to the oneness of Allah and the apostlehood of Muhammad) and I said the same but I do not know. And they would say: We already knew that you would say this and the earth will be told to press him and it will press him till his ribs are clasped together and he will not be relieved of the torment till Allah resurrects him from his resting-place.
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 122 Narrated byUbayy ibn Ka'b
In regard to the words of Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, "Your Lord brought forth their offspring from the loins of the children of Adam." (7:172) Ubayy said: He gathered them and paired them then fashioned them and endowed them with the power of speech and they began to speak. He then made an agreement and covenant with them. He made them bear witness about themselves (saying) Am I not your Lord. They said: Yes. He said: I call to witness seven heavens and seven earths regarding you and I call witness your father Adam regarding you lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection: We do not know this. Bear this in mind that there is no god besides Me and there is no Lord besides Me and do not associate anything with Me. It is I Who should be sending to you My messengers in order to remind you My agreement and My covenant and it is I who would send you My Books. They said: We bear witness to the fact that Thou art our Lord, Thou art our Object of worship. There is no Lord besides Thee and there is no object of worship besides Thee. They confirmed this (pledge). Adam was raised above them so that he would see them and he saw the rich and the poor, those having handsome faces and even those inferior to them and he said: My Lord, why is it that Thou hast not made Thy servants alike? He said: I wish that I should be thanked. And he also saw the Prophets, some amongst them like lamps with light in them, distinguished by another covenant regarding messengership and prophethood, viz. the words of the Blessed and the High: And when We made covenant with the prophets - up to His words: Jesus son of Mary (33:7). He was among those spirits and He sent him to Mary (peace be upon both of them). And it is narrated by Ubayy that he entered by her mouth.

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 120 Narrated byAbuNadrah
A person from amongst the companions of Allah's Apostle, called Abdullah, was visited by the companions of the Prophet who had come to enquire after his health (and they found him weeping). They said to him: What makes you weep? Did Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) not say to you: Clip your moustache and then keep it like that till you meet me (at) al-Kawthar. He said: Yes but I have also heard Allah's Messenger (peace of Allah be upon him) saying: Verily, the Exalted and Glorious, took a handful in His right hand and the (other handful) in His left hand. This is for this and this is for that and I do not mind. I do not know in which handful I would be (and that makes me weep).

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 118 Narrated byAbuHurayrah
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: When Allah created Adam, He touched his back, and there fell from his back every soul that He would create from his offspring till the Day of Resurrection and He created between the two eyes of every person a gleam of light. Then He presented them to Adam who said: My Lord who are they? He (the Lord) said: They are your offspring. He (Adam) saw a person from amongst them and he felt attracted towards him and the sparkle of light between his two eyes. He said: My Lord, who is he? (The Lord) said: It is David. He (Adam) said: My Lord, what span of life have you allotted to him? He replied: Sixty years. He said: My Lord, enhance his age from my age (to the extent of forty years). Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: When Adam completed his age life-span with only forty years remaining, there came to him the angel of death. Thereupon Adam said: Are there not forty years left in my life-span? The angel said: Did you not confer your son (forty years). Adam denied it and so did his offspring. Adam forgot and ate (the fruit) of the tree and so his offspring also forgot and he (Adam) committed an error and so did his offspring commit an error.
Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 98 Narrated byAbuHurayrah
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) came to us as we had been arguing with each other about the Divine Decree (al-Qadr). He was so annoyed that his face became as red as if there had been squeezed on his cheeks the flesh of pomegranates. He said: Is this what you have been commanded to do, is this with which I have been sent to you? Those who had gone before you were destroyed as they disputed about it. I adjure you, I adjure you not to fall into argumentation in regard to it.
Sahih Bukhari Volume 7, Book 70, Number 573:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
When Allah's Apostle was on his death-bed and in the house there were some people among whom was 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, the Prophet said, "Come, let me write for you a statement after which you will not go astray." 'Umar said, "The Prophet is seriously ill and you have the Qur'an; so the Book of Allah is enough for us." The people present in the house differed and quarrelled. Some said "Go near so that the Prophet may write for you a statement after which you will not go astray," while the others said as Umar said. When they caused a hue and cry before the Prophet, Allah's Apostle said, "Go away!" Narrated 'Ubaidullah: Ibn 'Abbas used to say, "It was very unfortunate that Allah's Apostle was prevented from writing that statement for them because of their disagreement and noise."

Narrated Anas bin Malik:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "At every womb Allah appoints an angel who says, 'O Lord! A drop of semen, O Lord! A clot. O Lord! A little lump of flesh." Then if Allah wishes (to complete) its creation, the angel asks, (O Lord!) Will it be a male or female, a wretched or a blessed, and how much will his provision be? And what will his age be?' So all that is written while the child is still in the mother's womb."
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " إِنَّ اللَّهَ ـ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ـ وَكَّلَ بِالرَّحِمِ مَلَكًا يَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ نُطْفَةٌ، يَا رَبِّ عَلَقَةٌ، يَا رَبِّ مُضْغَةٌ. فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ خَلْقَهُ قَالَ أَذَكَرٌ أَمْ أُنْثَى شَقِيٌّ أَمْ سَعِيدٌ فَمَا الرِّزْقُ وَالأَجَلُ فَيُكْتَبُ فِي بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ ".

Narrated `Aisha:
None of us had more than a single garment and we used to have our menses while wearing it. Whenever it got soiled with blood of menses we used to apply saliva to the blood spot and rub off the blood with our nails.
