Narrated Aisha: The following Verse: If a woman fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part (i.e. the husband notices something unpleasant about his wife, such as old age or the like, and wants to divorce her, but she asks him to keep her and provide for her as he wishes). (4.128) There is no blame on them if they reconcile on such basis.

Judge between us according to Allah's Laws. The bedouin said, My son was a laborer working for this man, and he committed illegal sexual intercourse with his wife. The people told me that my son should be stoned to death; so, in lieu of that, I paid a ransom of one hundred sheep and a slave girl to save my son. Then I asked the learned scholars who said, Your son has to be lashed one-hundred lashes and has to be exiled for one year. The Prophet said, No doubt I will judge between you according to Allah's Laws. The slave-girl and the sheep are to go back to you, and your son will get a hundred lashes and one year exile. He then addressed somebody, O Unais! go to the wife of this (man) and stone her to death So, Unais went and stoned her to death.

Read More..Narrated Al-Bara bin `Azib: When Allah's Apostle concluded a peace treaty with the people of Hudaibiya, `Ali bin Abu Talib wrote the document and he mentioned in it, Muhammad, Allah's Apostle . The pagans said, Don't write: 'Muhammad, Allah's Apostle', for if you were an apostle we would not fight with you. Allah's Apostle asked `Ali to rub it out, but `Ali said, I will not be the person to rub it out. Allah's Apostle rubbed it out and made peace with them on the condition that the Prophet and his companions would enter Mecca and stay there for three days, and that they would enter with their weapons in cases.
Read More..Narrated Al-Bara: When the Prophet intended to perform `Umra in the month of Dhul-Qada, the people of Mecca did not let him enter Mecca till he settled the matter with them by promising to stay in it for three days only. When the document of treaty was written, the following was mentioned: 'These are the terms on which Muhammad, Allah's Apostle agreed (to make peace).' They said, We will not agree to this, for if we believed that you are Allah's Apostle we would not prevent you, but you are Muhammad bin `Abdullah. The Prophet said, I am Allah's Apostle and also Muhammad bin `Abdullah. Then he said to `Ali, Rub off (the words) 'Allah's Apostle' , but `Ali said, No, by Allah, I will never rub off your name. So, Allah's Apostle took the document and wrote, 'This is what Muhammad bin `Abdullah has agreed upon: No arms will be brought into Mecca except in their cases, and nobody from the people of Mecca will be allowed to go with him (i.e. the Prophet ) even if he wished to follow him and he (the Prophet ) will not prevent any of his companions from staying in Mecca if the latter wants to stay.' When the Prophet entered Mecca and the time limit passed, the Meccans went to `Ali and said, Tell your Friend (i.e. the Prophet ) to go out, as the period (agreed to) has passed. So, the Prophet went out of Mecca. The daughter of Hamza ran after them (i.e. the Prophet and his companions), calling, O Uncle! O Uncle! `Ali received her and led her by the hand and said to Fatima, Take your uncle's daughter. Zaid and Ja`far quarreled about her. `Ali said, I have more right to her as she is my uncle's daughter. Ja`far said, She is my uncle's daughter, and her aunt is my wife. Zaid said, She is my brother's daughter. The Prophet judged that she should be given to her aunt, and said that the aunt was like the mother. He then said to 'All, You are from me and I am from you , and said to Ja`far, You resemble me both in character and appearance , and said to Zaid, You are our brother (in faith) and our freed slave.
