(صلى ہللا عليه و آله وسلم) narrated that they used to greet the Prophet (رضئ ہللا تعالی عنہ) Abdullah while he was praying and he used to answer our greetings.

Peace be on you, O Prophet, and Allah's mercy and blessings (on you). And peace be on us and on the good (pious) servants of Allah. I testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His servant and Apostle.] So, when you have said this, then you have surely sent the greetings to every good (pious) servant of Allah, whether he be in the Heaven or on the Earth.

She again said, 'O Juraij!' He said again, 'O Allah! My mother (is calling me) and (I am offering) my prayer (what shall I do)?' She again said, 'O Juraij' He again said, 'O Allah! My mother (is calling me) and (I am offering) my prayer. (What shall I do?)' She said, 'O Allah! Do not let Juraij die till he sees the faces of prostitutes.' A shepherdess used to come by his hermitage for grazing her sheep and she gave birth to a child. She was asked whose child that was, and she replied that it was from Juraij and that he had come out from his hermitage. Juraij said, 'where is that woman who claims that her child is from me?' (When she was brought to him along with the child), Juraij asked the child, 'O Babus, who is your father?' The child replied, 'The shepherd.' 6

No doubt, I thought of tying him to one of the pillars of the mosque till you get up in the morning and see him. Then I remembered the statement of Prophet Sulaiman ر ب ه ب ل ي م ل ك ا ال ي ن ب غ ي أل ح د م ن ب ع د ي (عليه السالم) [My Lord, bestow on me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me.] (Sad 35).

While I was at the bank of a river a man was praying and the reins of his animal were in his hands and the animal was struggling and he was following the animal. Shu`ba, a sub-narrator, said that man was Abu Barza Al-Aslami ہللا تعالی عنہ).(رضئ A man from the Khawarij said, O Allah! Be harsh to this shaik." And when the Abu Barza ہللا تعالی عنہ) (رضئ finished his prayer, he said, I heard your remark. No doubt, I participated with Allah's Apostle ہللا عليه و آله وسلم) (صلى in six or seven or eight battles and saw his leniency, and no doubt, I would rather retain my animal than let it return to its stable, as it would cause me much trouble.

Then he bowed, and after finishing, he prostrated and did the same in the second rak`a and then said, these (lunar and solar eclipses) are two of the signs of Allah and if you see them, pray till the eclipse is over. No doubt, while standing at this place I saw everything promised to me by Allah and I saw (Paradise) and I wanted to pluck a bunch (of grapes) therefrom, at the time when you saw me stepping forward. No doubt, I saw Hell with its different parts destroying each other when you saw me retreating, and in it I saw Amr bin Luhai who started the tradition of freeing animals (set them free) in the name of idols.
