Narrated Ibn Abbas:

'Umar asked the people regarding Allah's Statement:

'When comes the Help of Allah (to you O Muhammad against your enemies) and the conquest of Mecca.' (110.1) They replied, ""It indicates the future conquest of towns and palaces (by Muslims)."" 'Umar said, ""What do you say about it, O Ibn 'Abbas?"" I replied, ""(This Surat) indicates the termination of the life of Muhammad. Through it he was informed of the nearness of his death."""

Volume 6, Book 60, Number 494:

Narrated Ibn Abbas:

'Umar used to make me sit with the elderly men who had fought in the Battle of Badr. Some of them felt it (did not like that) and said to 'Umar ""Why do you bring in this boy to sit with us while we have sons like him?"" Umar replied, ""Because of what you know of his position (i.e. his religious knowledge.)"" One day 'Umar called me and made me sit in the gathering of those people; and I think that he called me just to show them. (my religious knowledge). 'Umar then asked them (in my presence). ""What do you say about the interpretation of the Statement of Allah:

'When comes Help of Allah (to you O, Muhammad against your enemies) and the conquest (of Mecca).' (110.1) Some of them said, ""We are ordered to praise Allah and ask for His forgiveness when Allah's Help and the conquest (of Mecca) comes to us."" Some others kept quiet and did not say anything. On that, 'Umar asked me, ""Do you say the same, O Ibn 'Abbas?"" I replied, ""No."" He said, 'What do you say then?"" I replied, ""That is the sign of the death of Allah's Apostle which Allah informed him of. Allah said:--

'(O Muhammad) When comes the Help of Allah (to you against your enemies) and the conquest (of Mecca) (which is the sign of your death). You should celebrate the praises of your Lord and ask for His Forgiveness, and He is the One Who accepts the repentance and forgives.' (110.3) On that 'Umar said, ""I do not know anything about it other than what you have said."""

When the Verse:-- 'And warn your tribe of near kindred.' (26.214) was revealed. Allah's Apostle went out, and when he had ascended As-Safa mountain, he shouted, ""O Sabahah!"" The people said, ""Who is that?"" ""Then they gathered around him, whereupon he said, ""Do you see? If I inform you that cavalrymen are proceeding up the side of this mountain, will you believe me?"" They said, ""We have never heard you telling a lie."" Then he said, ""I am a plain warner to you of a coming severe punishment."" Abu Lahab said, ""May you perish! You gathered us only for this reason? "" Then Abu Lahab went away. So the ""Surat:--ul--LAHAB"" 'Perish the hands of Abu Lahab!' (111.1) was revealed."

Once the Prophet fell ill and did not offer the night prayer (Tahajjud prayer) for a night or two. A woman (the wife of Abu Lahab) came to him and said, ""O Muhammad ! I do not see but that your Satan has left you."" Then Allah revealed (Surat-Ad-Duha):

'By the fore-noon, and by the night when it darkens (or is still); Your Lord has not forsaken you, nor hated you.' (93)"

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

(The Caliph 'Uthman ordered Zaid bin Thabit, Said bin Al-As, 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair and 'Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Harith bin Hisham to write the Quran in the form of a book (Mushafs) and said to them. ""In case you disagree with Zaid bin Thabit (Al-Ansari) regarding any dialectic Arabic utterance of the Quran, then write it in the dialect of Quraish, for the Quran was revealed in this dialect."" So they did it."

Volume 6, Book 61, Number 508:

Narrated Safwan bin Ya'la bin Umaiya:

Ya'la used to say, ""I wish I could see Allah's Apostle at the time he is being inspired Divinely."" When the Prophet was at Al-Ja'rana and was shaded by a garment hanging over him and some of his companions were with him, a man perfumed with scent came and said, ""O Allah's Apostle! What is your opinion regarding a man who assumes Ihram and puts on a cloak after perfuming his body with scent?"" The Prophet waited for a while, and then the Divine Inspiration descended upon him. 'Umar pointed out to Ya'la, telling him to come. Ya'la came and pushed his head (underneath the screen which was covering the Prophet ) and behold! The Prophet's face was red and he kept on breathing heavily for a while and then he was relieved. Thereupon he said, ""Where is the questioner who asked me about 'Umra a while ago?"" The man was sought and then was brought before the Prophet who said (to him), ""As regards the scent which you perfumed your body with, you must wash it off thrice, and as for your cloak, you must take it off; and then perform in your 'Umra all those things which you perform in Hajj."""

Volume 6, Book 61, Number 509:

Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:

Abu Bakr As-Siddiq sent for me when the people! of Yamama had been killed (i.e., a number of the Prophet's Companions who fought against Musailama). (I went to him) and found 'Umar bin Al-Khattab sitting with him. Abu Bakr then said (to me), ""Umar has come to me and said: ""Casualties were heavy among the Qurra' of the! Qur'an (i.e. those who knew the Quran by heart) on the day of the Battle of Yalmama, and I am afraid that more heavy casualties may take place among the Qurra' on other battlefields, whereby a large part of the Qur'an may be lost. Therefore I suggest, you (Abu Bakr) order that the Qur'an be collected."" I said to 'Umar, ""How can you do something which Allah's Apostle did not do?"" 'Umar said, ""By Allah, that is a good project. ""Umar kept on urging me to accept his proposal till Allah opened my chest for it and I began to realize the good in the idea which 'Umar had realized."" Then Abu Bakr said (to me). 'You are a wise young man and we do not have any suspicion about you, and you used to write the Divine Inspiration for Allah's Apostle. So you should search for (the fragmentary scripts of) the Qur'an and collect it in one book)."" By Allah If they had ordered me to shift one of the mountains, it would not have been heavier for me than this ordering me to collect the Qur'an. Then I said to Abu Bakr, ""How will you do something which Allah's Apostle did not do?"" Abu Bakr replied, ""By Allah, it is a good project."" Abu Bakr kept on urging me to accept his idea until Allah opened my chest for what He had opened the chests of Abu Bakr and 'Umar. So I started looking for the Qur'an and collecting it from (what was written on) palmed stalks, thin white stones and also from the men who knew it by heart, till I found the last Verse of Surat At-Tauba (Repentance) with Abi Khuzaima Al-Ansari, and I did not find it with anybody other than him. The Verse is:

'Verily there has come unto you an Apostle (Muhammad) from amongst yourselves. It grieves him that you should receive any injury or difficulty..(till the end of Surat-Baraa' (At-Tauba) (9.128-129) Then the complete manuscripts (copy) of the Qur'an remained with Abu Bakr till he died, then with 'Umar till the end of his life, and then with Hafsa, the daughter of 'Umar."

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman came to Uthman at the time when the people of Sham and the people of Iraq were Waging war to conquer Arminya and Adharbijan. Hudhaifa was afraid of their (the people of Sham and Iraq) differences in the recitation of the Qur'an, so he said to 'Uthman, ""O chief of the Believers! Save this nation before they differ about the Book (Quran) as Jews and the Christians did before."" So 'Uthman sent a message to Hafsa saying, ""Send us the manuscripts of the Qur'an so that we may compile the Qur'anic materials in perfect copies and return the manuscripts to you."" Hafsa sent it to 'Uthman. 'Uthman then ordered Zaid bin Thabit, 'Abdullah bin AzZubair, Said bin Al-As and 'AbdurRahman bin Harith bin Hisham to rewrite the manuscripts in perfect copies. 'Uthman said to the three Quraishi men, ""In case you disagree with Zaid bin Thabit on any point in the Qur'an, then write it in the dialect of Quraish, the Qur'an was revealed in their tongue."" They did so, and when they had written many copies, 'Uthman returned the original manuscripts to Hafsa. 'Uthman sent to every Muslim province one copy of what they had copied, and ordered that all the other Qur'anic materials, whether written in fragmentary manuscripts or whole copies, be burnt. Said bin Thabit added, ""A Verse from Surat Ahzab was missed by me when we copied the Qur'an and I used to hear Allah's Apostle reciting it. So we searched for it and found it with Khuzaima bin Thabit Al-Ansari. (That Verse was): 'Among the Believers are men who have been true in their covenant with Allah.' (33.23)"

Volume 6, Book 61, Number 514:

Narrated 'Umar bin Al-Khattab:

I heard Hisham bin Hakim reciting Surat Al-Furqan during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle and I listened to his recitation and noticed that he recited in several different ways which Allah's Apostle had not taught me. I was about to jump over him during his prayer, but I controlled my temper, and when he had completed his prayer, I put his upper garment around his neck and seized him by it and said, ""Who taught you this Sura which I heard you reciting?"" He replied, ""Allah's Apostle taught it to me."" I said, ""You have told a lie, for Allah's Apostle has taught it to me in a different way from yours."" So I dragged him to Allah's Apostle and said (to Allah's Apostle),

""I heard this person reciting Surat Al-Furqan in a way which you haven't taught me!"" On that Allah's Apostle said, ""Release him, (O 'Umar!) Recite, O Hisham!"" Then he recited in the same way as I heard him reciting. Then Allah's Apostle said, ""It was revealed in this way,"" and added, ""Recite, O 'Umar!"" I recited it as he had taught me. Allah's Apostle then said, ""It was revealed in this way. This Qur'an has been revealed to be recited in seven different ways, so recite of it whichever (way) is easier for you (or read as much of it as may be easy for you)."""

Narrated Yusuf bin Mahk:

While I was with Aisha, the mother of the Believers, a person from Iraq came and asked, ""What type of shroud is the best?"" 'Aisha said, ""May Allah be merciful to you! What does it matter?"" He said, ""O mother of the Believers! Show me (the copy of) your Qur'an,"" She said, ""Why?"" He said, ""In order to compile and arrange the Qur'an according to it, for people recite it with its Suras not in proper order."" 'Aisha said, ""What does it matter which part of it you read first? (Be informed) that the first thing that was revealed thereof was a Sura from Al-Mufassal, and in it was mentioned Paradise and the Fire. When the people embraced Islam, the Verses regarding legal and illegal things were revealed. If the first thing to be revealed was: 'Do not drink alcoholic drinks.' people would have said, 'We will never leave alcoholic drinks,' and if there had been revealed, 'Do not commit illegal sexual intercourse, 'they would have said, 'We will never give up illegal sexual intercourse.' While I was a young girl of playing age, the following Verse was revealed in Mecca to Muhammad: 'Nay! But the Hour is their appointed time (for their full recompense), and the Hour will be more grievous and more bitter.' (54.46) Sura Al-Baqara (The Cow) and Surat An-Nisa (The Women) were revealed while I was with him."" Then 'Aisha took out the copy of the Qur'an for the man and dictated to him the Verses of the Suras (in their proper order) ."

Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Mu'alla:

While I was praying, the Prophet called me but I did not respond to his call. Later I said, ""O Allah's Apostle! I was praying."" He said, ""Didn't Allah say: 'O you who believe! Give your response to Allah (by obeying Him) and to His Apostle when he calls you'?"" (8.24)

He then said, ""Shall I not teach you the most superior Surah in the Qur'an?"" He said, '(It is),

'Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. ' (i.e., Surat Al-Fatiha) which consists of seven repeatedly recited Verses and the Magnificent Qur'an which was given to me."""

Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:

While we were on one of our journeys, we dismounted at a place where a slave girl came and said, ""The chief of this tribe has been stung by a scorpion and our men are not present; is there anybody among you who can treat him (by reciting something)?"" Then one of our men went along with her though we did not think that he knew any such treatment. But he treated the chief by reciting something, and the sick man recovered whereupon he gave him thirty sheep and gave us milk to drink (as a reward). When he returned, we asked our friend, ""Did you know how to treat with the recitation of something?"" He said, ""No, but I treated him only with the recitation of the Mother of the Book (i.e., Al-Fatiha)."" We said, ""Do not say anything (about it) till we reach or ask the Prophet so when we reached Medina, we mentioned that to the Prophet (in order to know whether the sheep which we had taken were lawful to take or not). The Prophet said, ""How did he come to know that it (Al-Fatiha) could be used for treatment? Distribute your reward and assign for me one share thereof as well."""

Ibn Hudair replied, ""O Allah's Apostle! My son, Yahya was near the horse and I was afraid that it might trample on him, so I looked towards the sky, and went to him. When I looked at the sky, I saw something like a cloud containing what looked like lamps, so I went out in order not to see it."" The Prophet said, ""Do you know what that was?""

Volume 6, Book 61, Number 539:

Narrated Ibn 'Umar:

The Prophet said, ""Your life in comparison to the lifetime of the past nations is like the period between the time of 'Asr prayer and sunset. Your example and the example of the Jews and Christians is that of person who employed laborers and said to them, ""Who will work for me till the middle of the day for one Qirat (a special weight)?' The Jews did. He then said, ""Who will work for me from the middle of the day till the 'Asr prayer for one Qirat each?"" The Christians worked accordingly. Then you (Muslims) are working from the bar prayer till the Maghrib prayer for two Qirats each. They (the Jews and the Christians) said, 'We did more labor but took less wages.' He (Allah) said, 'Have I wronged you in your rights?' They replied, 'No.' Then He said, 'This is My Blessing which I give to whom I wish."""

He replied, ""Allah's Apostle taught it to me."" I said, ""You are telling a lie; By Allah! Allah's Apostle taught me (in a different way) this very Surah which I have heard you reciting."" So I took him, leading him to Allah's Apostle and said, ""O Allah's Apostle! I heard this person reciting Surat-al-Furqan in a way that you did not teach me, and you have taught me Surat-al-Furqan."" The Prophet said, ""O Hisham, recite!"" So he recited in the same way as I heard him recite it before. On that Allah's Apostle said, ""It was revealed to be recited in this way."" Then Allah's Apostle said, ""Recite, O 'Umar!"" So I recited it as he had taught me. Allah's Apostle then said, ""It was revealed to be recited in this way.""

Narrated Ibn Abbas:

Regarding His (Allah's) Statement:-- 'Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur'an) to make haste therewith.' (75.16) And whenever Gabriel descended to Allah's Apostle with the Divine Inspiration, Allah's Apostle used to move his tongue and lips, and that used to be hard for him, and one could easily recognize that he was being inspired Divinely. So Allah revealed the Verse which occurs in the Surah starting with ""I do swear by the Day of Resurrection.' (75.1) i.e. 'Move not your tongue concerning (the Qur'an) to make haste then with. It is for Us to collect it (in your mind) (O Muhammad) an give you the ability to recite it 'by heart.' (75.16-17) which means: It is for us to collect it (in your mind) and give you the ability to recite it by heart. And when We have recited it to you (O Muhammad) through Gabriel then follow you its recital. (75.18) means: 'When We reveal it (the Qur'an) to you, Listen to it.' for then: It is for Us to explain it and make it clear to you' (75.19) i.e. It is up to Us to explain it through your tongue. So, when Gabriel came to him, Allah's Apostle would listen to him attentively, and as soon as Gabriel left, he would recite the Revelations, as Allah had promised him."

Volume 6, Book 61, Number 572:

Narrated 'Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-As:

My father got me married to a lady of a noble family, and often used to ask my wife about me, and she used to reply, ""What a wonderful man he is! He never comes to my bed, nor has he approached me since he married me."" When this state continued for a long period, my father told the story to the Prophet who said to my father, ""Let me meet him."" Then I met him and he asked me, ""How do you fast?"" I replied, ""I fast daily,"" He asked, ""How long does it take you to finish the recitation of the whole Quran?"" I replied, ""I finish it every night."" On that he said, ""Fast for three days every month and recite the Qur'an (and finish it) in one month."" I said, ""But I have power to do more than that."" He said, ""Then fast for three days per week."" I said, ""i have the power to do more than that."" He said, ""Therefore, fast the most superior type of fasting, (that is, the fasting of (prophet) David who used to fast every alternate day; and finish the recitation of the whole Qur'an In seven days."" I wish I had accepted the permission of Allah's Apostle as I have become a weak old man. It is said that 'Abdullah used to recite one-seventh of the Qur'an during the day-time to some of his family members, for he used to check his memorization of what he would recite at night during the daytime so that it would be easier for him to read at night. And whenever he wanted to gain some strength, he used to give up fasting for some days and count those days to fast for a similar period, for he disliked to leave those things which he used to do during the lifetime of the Prophet."

So I recited Surat An-Nisa (The Women) till I reached the Verse: 'How (will it be) then when We bring from each nation a witness, and We bring you (O Muhammad) as a witness against these people.'

The third said, ""I will keep away from the women and will not marry forever."" Allah's Apostle came to them and said, ""Are you the same people who said so-and-so?

that he asked 'Aisha about the Statement of Allah: 'If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry (other) women of your choice, two or three or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (the captives) that your right hands possess. That will be nearer to prevent you from doing injustice.' (4.3) 'Aisha said, ""O my nephew! (This Verse has been revealed in connection with) an orphan girl under the guardianship of her guardian who is attracted by her wealth and beauty and intends to marry her with a Mahr less than what other women of her standard deserve.

Narrated 'Alqama:

While I was with Abdullah, 'Uthman met him at Mina and said, ""O Abu 'Abdur-Rahman ! I have something to say to you."" So both of them went aside and 'Uthman said, ""O Abu 'Abdur-Rah. man! Shall we marry you to a virgin who will make you remember your past days?"" When 'Abdullah felt that he was not in need of that, he beckoned me (to join him) saying, ""O 'Alqama!"" Then I heard him saying (in reply to 'Uthman), ""As you have said that, (I tell you that) the Prophet once said to us, 'O young people! Whoever among you is able to marry, should marry, and whoever is not able to marry, is recommended to fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power."

Volume 7, Book 62, Number 4:

Narrated 'Abdullah:

We were with the Prophet while we were young and had no wealth whatever. So Allah's Apostle said, ""O young people! Whoever among you can marry, should marry, because it helps him lower his gaze and guard his modesty (i.e. his private parts from committing illegal sexual intercourse etc.), and whoever is not able to marry, should fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power."""
