Anas relates: The Holy Prophet went forth with his companions and arrived at Badr ahead of the idolators and directed: Let no one of you go forward ahead of me. When the idolators approached, the Holy Prophet said:. Now stand up and proceed towards the Paradise whose extent comprehends the heaven and the earth; whereupon Umair ibn Hamam inquired: Messenger of Allah, does Paradise comprehend the heavens and the earth? He answered:. Yes. Umair ejaculated: Well, well. The Holy Prophet asked him: What has urged you to say well, well? He answered: Messenger of Allah, I uttered these words to express the hope that I might become a dweller of Paradise. The Holy. Prophet told him: You are one of its dwellers. He took out some dates from his quiver and began eating them. Then he said: Were I to survive till I finish eating these dates, that would be a long interval. So he threw away the remaining dates and rushed into the fighting and was slain (Muslim). 1321. Anas relates that some people came to the Holy Prophet and requested that he should send some men with them who should teach them the. Quran and the Sunnah. He sent with them seventy men of the Ansar who were known as qaris (Reciters) among them my maternal uncle Haram. These people used to recite the Quran and occupied themselves at night with teaching and learning it. During the day, they brought water to the mosque and gathered wood for fuel which they sold and with the proceeds of which they purchased food for those who remained in attendance in the mosque and the needy. These people were sent by the Holy Prophet with those who had asked for them but were slaughtered treacherously on the way. While they were being slaughtered, they supplicated: O Allah, convey from us to our. Prophet that we have reached Thee and are pleased with Thee and that Thou art pleased with us. A man approached Haram from his back and transfixed him with his spear, whereupon Haram ejaculated: By the Lord of the Ka'aba I have achieved my purpose. The Holy Prophet informed his companions: Your brethren have been slaughtered and they supplicated: O Allah convey from us to our Prophet that we have reached Thee and are pleased with Thee and that. Thou art pleased with us (Bokhari and Muslim). 1322. . This hadith is the same as No. 109. 1323. This hadith is a part of No. 1551. 1324. Anas relates that Umm Haritha ibn Suraqoh came to the Holy.

The Holy Prophet said to her: Umm Haritha, there are many grades in Paradise and your son has achieved Firdaus, the high (Bokhari).
