Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) never told a lie but only thrice: two times for the sake of Allah (for example, his words): I am sick, and his words: But it was the big one amongst them which has done that and because of Sara (his wife). He had come in a land inhabited by haughty and cruel men along with Sara. She was very good-looking amongst the people, so he said to her: If these people were to know that you are my wife they would snatch you away from me, so if they ask you tell them that you are my sister and in fact you are my sister in Islam, and I do not know of any other Muslim in this land besides I and you. And when they entered that land the tyrants came to see her and said to him (the king): 'There comes to your land a woman, whom you alone deserve to possess', so he (the king) sent someone (towards her) and she was brought to him, and Ibrahim (peace be upon him) stood in prayer. When she visited him (the tyrant king came) he could help but stretch his hand towards her and his hand was tied up. He said: 'Supplicate to Allah so that He may release my hand and I will do no harm to you.' She did that and the man repeated (the same highhandedness) and his hand was again tied up more tightly than on the first occasion. He said the same thing to her again, and she again did that (supplicated), but he repeated (the same highhandedness and his hands were tied up more tightly than on the previous occasion). He then again said: 'Supplicate your Lord so that He may set my hand free; by Allah I shall do no harm to you.' She did and his hand was freed. Then he called the person who had brought her and said to him: 'You have brought to me the satan and you have not brought to me a human being, so turn them out from my land,' and he gave Hajar as a gift to her. She returned (along with Hajar) and when Ibrahim (peace be upon him) saw her, he said: 'How have you returned?' She said: 'With full safety (have I returned). Allah held the hand of that debauch and he gave me a maid-servant.' Abu Huraira said: 'O sons of the rain of the sky, she is your mother.'
وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ السَّخْتِيَانِيِّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: لَمْ يَكْذِبْ إِبْرَاهِيمُ النَّبِيُّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، قَطُّ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَ كَذَبَاتٍ، ثِنْتَيْنِ فِي ذَاتِ اللهِ، قَوْلُهُ: إِنِّي سَقِيمٌ، وَقَوْلُهُ: بَلْ فَعَلَهُ كَبِيرُهُمْ هَذَا، وَوَاحِدَةٌ فِي شَأْنِ سَارَةَ، فَإِنَّهُ قَدِمَ أَرْضَ جَبَّارٍ وَمَعَهُ سَارَةُ، وَكَانَتْ أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ، فَقَالَ لَهَا: إِنَّ هَذَا الْجَبَّارَ، إِنْ يَعْلَمْ أَنَّكِ امْرَأَتِي يَغْلِبْنِي عَلَيْكِ، فَإِنْ سَأَلَكِ فَأَخْبِرِيهِ أَنَّكِ أُخْتِي، فَإِنَّكِ أُخْتِي فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، فَإِنِّي لَا أَعْلَمُ فِي الْأَرْضِ مُسْلِمًا غَيْرِي وَغَيْرَكِ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ أَرْضَهُ رَآهَا بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْجَبَّارِ، أَتَاهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ: لَقَدْ قَدِمَ أَرْضَكَ امْرَأَةٌ لَا يَنْبَغِي لَهَا أَنْ تَكُونَ إِلَّا لَكَ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا فَأُتِيَ بِهَا فَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَتْ عَلَيْهِ لَمْ يَتَمَالَكْ أَنْ بَسَطَ يَدَهُ إِلَيْهَا، فَقُبِضَتْ يَدُهُ قَبْضَةً شَدِيدَةً، فَقَالَ لَهَا: ادْعِي اللهَ أَنْ يُطْلِقَ يَدِي وَلَا أَضُرُّكِ، فَفَعَلَتْ، فَعَادَ، فَقُبِضَتْ أَشَدَّ مِنَ الْقَبْضَةِ الْأُولَى، فَقَالَ لَهَا مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، فَفَعَلَتْ، فَعَادَ، فَقُبِضَتْ أَشَدَّ مِنَ الْقَبْضَتَيْنِ الْأُولَيَيْنِ، فَقَالَ: ادْعِي اللهَ أَنْ يُطْلِقَ يَدِي، فَلَكِ اللهَ أَنْ لَا أَضُرَّكِ، فَفَعَلَتْ، وَأُطْلِقَتْ يَدُهُ، وَدَعَا الَّذِي جَاءَ بِهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ: إِنَّكَ إِنَّمَا أَتَيْتَنِي بِشَيْطَانٍ، وَلَمْ تَأْتِنِي بِإِنْسَانٍ، فَأَخْرِجْهَا مِنْ أَرْضِي، وَأَعْطِهَا هَاجَرَ. قَالَ: فَأَقْبَلَتْ تَمْشِي، فَلَمَّا رَآهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ انْصَرَفَ، فَقَالَ لَهَا: مَهْيَمْ؟ قَالَتْ: خَيْرًا، كَفَّ اللهُ يَدَ الْفَاجِرِ، وَأَخْدَمَ خَادِمًا قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: فَتِلْكَ أُمُّكُمْ يَا بَنِي مَاءِ السَّمَاءِ
  سیدنا ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ عنہ سے روایت ہے کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا : سیدنا ابراہیم علیہ السلام نے کبھی جھوٹ نہیں بولا مگر ، تین دفعہ ( بولا ) ( یہ اصطلاحاً جھوٹ کہے گئے ہیں ، حقیقت میں جھوٹ نہیں ہیں بلکہ یہ توریہ کی ایک شکل ہیں ) ان میں سے دو جھوٹ اللہ کے لئے تھے ، ایک تو ان کا یہ قول کہ ”میں بیمار ہوں“ اور دوسرا یہ کہ ”ان بتوں کو بڑے بت نے توڑا ہو گا“تیسرا جھوٹ سیدہ سارہ علیہا السلام کے بارے میں تھا ۔ اس کا قصہ یہ ہے کہ سیدنا ابراہیم علیہ السلام ایک ظالم بادشاہ کے ملک میں پہنچے ان کے ساتھ ان کی بیوی سیدہ سارہ بھی تھیں اور وہ بڑی خوبصورت تھیں ۔ انہوں نے اپنی بیوی سے کہا کہ اس ظالم بادشاہ کو اگر معلوم ہو گا کہ تو میری بیوی ہے تو مجھ سے چھین لے گا ، اس لئے اگر وہ پوچھے تو یہ کہنا کہ میں اس شخص کی بہن ہوں اور تو اسلام کے رشتہ سے میری بہن ہے ۔ ( یہ بھی کچھ جھوٹ نہ تھا ) اس لئے کہ ساری دنیا میں آج میرے اور تیرے سوا کوئی مسلمان معلوم نہیں ہوتا جب سیدنا ابراہیم علیہ السلام اس کی قلم رو ( اس کے علاقہ ) سے گزر رہے تھے تو اس ظالم بادشاہ کے کارندے اس کے پاس گئے اور بیان کیا کہ تیرے ملک میں ایک ایسی عورت آئی ہے جو تیرے سوا کسی کے لائق نہیں ہے ۔ اس نے سیدہ سارہ کو بلا بھیجا ۔ وہ گئیں تو سیدنا ابراہیم علیہ السلام نماز کے لئے کھڑے ہو گئے ( اللہ سے دعا کرنے لگے اس کے شر سے بچنے کے لئے ) جب سیدہ سارہ اس ظالم کے پاس پہنچیں تو اس نے بے اختیار اپنا ہاتھ ان کی طرف دراز کیا ، لیکن فوراً اس کا ہاتھ سوکھ گیا وہ بولا کہ تو اللہ سے دعا کر کہ میرا ہاتھ کھل جائے ، میں تجھے نہیں ستاؤں گا ۔ انہوں نے دعا کی اس مردود نے پھر ہاتھ دراز کیا ، پھر پہلے سے بڑھ کر سوکھ گیا ۔ اس نے دعا کے لئے کہا تو انہوں نے دعا کی ۔ پھر اس مردود نے دست درازی کی ، پھر پہلی دونوں دفعہ سے بڑھ کر سوکھ گیا ۔ تب وہ بولا کہ اللہ سے دعا کر کہ میرا ہاتھ کھل جائے ، اللہ کی قسم اب میں تجھ کو نہ ستاؤں گا ۔ سیدہ سارہ نے پھر دعا کی ، اس کا ہاتھ کھل گیا ۔ تب اس نے اس شخص کو بلایا جو سیدہ سارہ کو لے کر آیا تھا اور اس سے بولا کہ تو میرے پاس شیطاننی کو لے کر آیا ، یہ انسان نہیں ہے اس کو میرے ملک سے باہر نکال دے اور ایک لونڈی ہاجرہ اس کے حوالے کر دے سیدہ سارہ ہاجرہ کو لے کر لوٹ آئیں جب سیدنا ابراہیم علیہ السلام نے دیکھا تو نمازوں سے فارغ ہوئے اور کہا کیا ہوا؟ سارہ نے کہا بس کہ سب خیریت رہی ، اللہ تعالیٰ نے اس بدکار کا ہاتھ مجھ سے روک دیا اور ایک لونڈی بھی دی ۔ سیدنا ابوہریرہ رضی اللہ عنہ نے کہا کہ پھر یہی لونڈی یعنی ہاجرہ تمہاری ماں ہے اے بارش کے بچو!

sahih-muslim-6146

Hammam b. Munabbih reported that Abu Huraira reported many ahadith from Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and one, of them speaks that Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) is reported to have said: Banu Isra'il used to take bath (together) naked and thus saw private parts of one another, but Moses (peace be upon him) used to take bath alone (in privacy), and they said: By Allah, nothing prevents Moses to take bath along with us; but scrotal hernia. One day when he (Moses) was taking bath (alone) he placed his clothes upon a stone, but the stone began to move along with his clothes. Moses raced after it saying: My garment, stone; until (some of the people) of Banu Isra'il looked at the private parts of Moses, and they said: By Allah, there is no trouble with Moses. The stone stopped after he (Moses) had been seen. He took hold of his garments and struck the stone. Abu Huraira said: I swear by Allah that there were six or seven scars on the stone because of the striking of stone by Moses (peace be upon him).

He (the Angel of Death) came back to the Lord and said: You sent me to a servant. who did not want to die. Allah restored his eye to its proper place (and revived his eyesight), and then said: Go back to him and tell him that if he wants life he must place his hand on the back of an ox, and he would be granted as many years of life as the number of hair covered by his hand. He (Moses) said: My Lord what would happen then He said: Then you must court death. He said: Let it be now. And he supplicated Allah to bring him close to the sacred land. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: If I were there, I would have shown you his grave beside the road at the red mound.

sahih-muslim-6151

Abu Huraira reported: While a Jew was selling goods, he was given something which he did not accept or he did not agree (to accept) that 'Abdul 'Azlz (one of the narrators) is doubtful about it. He (the Jew) said: By Allah, Who chose Moses (peace be upon him) among mankind. A person from the Ansar heard it and gave a blow at his face saying: (You have the audacity) to say: By Him Who chose Moses amongst mankind, whereas Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) is living amongst us. The Jew went to Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and said: Abu'l-Qasim, I am a Dhimmi and (thus need your protection) by a covenant, and added: Such and such person has given a blow upon my face. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Why did you give a blow on his face? He said: Allah's Messenger, this man said: By Him Who chose Moses (peace be upon him) amongst mankind, whereas you are living amongst us. Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) became angry and signs of anger could be seen on his face, and then said: Don't make distinction amongst the Prophets of Allah. When the horn will be blown and whatever is in the heavens and the earth would swoon but he whom Allah grants exception, then another horn will be blown and I would be the first amongst those who would recover and Moses (peace be upon him) would be catching hold of the Throne and I do not know whether it is a compensation for that when he swooned on the Day of Tur or he would be resurrected before me and I do not say that anyone is more excellent than Yunus son of Matta (peace he upon him).
