Hadith of Ka'b ibn Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him)

حَدِيثُ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ (١)، ١٨١٠١ - حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَنَحْنُ مُحْرِمُونَ، وَقَدْ حَصَرَنَا (٢) الْمُشْرِكُونَ، وَكَانَتْ لِي وَفْرَةٌ، فَجَعَلَتِ الْهَوَامُّ تَسَّاقَطُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، فَمَرَّ بِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: " أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ؟ " قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَحْلِقَ، قَالَ: وَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {فَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ مَرِيضًا، أَوْ بِهِ أَذًى مِنْ رَأْسِهِ، فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ، أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ، أَوْ نُسُكٍ} (٣) [البقرة: ١٩٦]، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that we were in the state of Ihram at Hudaybiyyah with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The polytheists had surrounded us (and were not allowing us to enter the Haram). My hair had grown very long, and during this time, lice began to fall from my head onto my face. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) passed by me and said, "Are the lice troubling you?" I replied, "Yes!" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) ordered, "Shave your head." On this occasion, this verse was revealed: "And whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the head (necessitating shaving), he should offer a ransom by fasting, or charity, or sacrifice."

حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَمِلْتُ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ كُلَّ شَعْرَةٍ مِنْ رَأْسِي فِيهَا الْقَمْلُ مِنْ أَصْلِهَا إِلَى فَرْعِهَا، فَأَمَرَنِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ رَأَى ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: " احْلِقْ " وَنَزَلَتِ الْآيَةُ، قَالَ: " أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ ثَلَاثَةَ آصُعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ " (١)، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that so many lice had infested my head that I thought every hair on my head, from root to tip, was filled with lice. When the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) saw this condition, he ordered me to shave my head, and when the mentioned verse was revealed, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said: "Feed six needy people with three sa’ of dates."

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ فُلَانِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، أَنَّ أَبَا ثُمَامَةَ الْحَنَّاطَ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ كَعْبَ بْنَ عُجْرَةَ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: " إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ أَحَدُكُمْ، فَأَحْسَنَ وُضُوءَهُ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ عَامِدًا إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ، فَلَا يُشَبِّكْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَإِنَّهُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ " (١)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) say: When any one of you performs ablution and does it well, then leaves with the intention of prayer, he should not interlace his fingers with each other during that time, because he is considered to be in prayer.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا، قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَدْ عَلِمْنَا السَّلَامَ عَلَيْكَ، فَكَيْفَ الصَّلَاةُ عَلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ: " قُولُوا: اللهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى، ، إِبْرَاهِيمَ، (١) إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ، اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ " (٢)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man asked the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), "O Messenger of Allah! We have learned how to send salutations (salaam) upon you, now tell us how should we send blessings (salat) upon you?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Say: O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim; indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You blessed Ibrahim; indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious."

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، قَالَ: وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي لَيْلَى قَالَ: لَقِيَنِي كَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ قَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: أَلَا أُهْدِي لَكَ هَدِيَّةً؟ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَدْ عَلِمْنَا، أَوْ عَرَفْنَا، كَيْفَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ، فَكَيْفَ الصَّلَاةُ؟ قَالَ: " قُولُوا اللهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ، اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ (١) عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ " (٢)، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man asked the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), "O Messenger of Allah! We have learned how to send salutations (salaam) upon you, now tell us how should we send blessings (durood) upon you?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Say: O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim; indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You blessed Ibrahim; indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious."

قَرَأْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْجَزَرِيِّ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَذَاهُ الْقَمْلُ فِي رَأْسِهِ، فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَحْلِقَ رَأْسَهُ، وَقَالَ: " صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ، مُدَّيْنِ مُدَّيْنِ لِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ، أَوْ انْسُكْ بِشَاةٍ، أَيَّ ذَلِكَ فَعَلْتَ أَجْزَأَكَ (١) " (٢)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he was with the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) and the lice on his head were causing him great distress. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) ordered him to shave his head and said: "Fast for three days, or feed six needy people, each with two mudd of food, or offer a sacrifice of one goat. Whatever you do will suffice for you."

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ قَالَ: أَتَى عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَنَا أُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ، وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، أَوْ قَالَ: حَاجِبَيَّ، (١) فَقَالَ: " أَيُؤْذِيكَ (٢) هَوَامُّ رَأْسِكَ؟ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " فَاحْلِقْهُ، وَصُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ، أَوْ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً " قَالَ أَيُّوبُ: لَا أَدْرِي بِأَيَّتِهِنَّ بَدَأَ. (٣)، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) came to me while I was lighting a fire under a pot, and lice were falling onto my face. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Are the lice on your head troubling you?" I replied, "Yes!" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) then ordered him to shave his head and said, "Keep three fasts, or feed six needy people, each with two mudd of food, or offer a sacrifice of one goat. Whatever you do will suffice for you."

حَدَّثَنَا، عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا، شُعْبَةُ، أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَكَمُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ أَبِي لَيْلَى قَالَ لَقِيَنِي (١) كَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ (٢)،

Affan narrated to us, Shu’bah narrated to us, Al-Hakam informed me, he said: I heard Abdur-Rahman ibn Abi Layla, he said: Ka’b ibn ‘Ujrah met me... then he mentioned the hadith.

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَعْقِلٍ، قَالَ: قَعَدْتُ إِلَى كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، وَهُوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ: {فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ} [البقرة: ١٩٦] ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ: نَزَلَتْ فِيَّ كَانَ بِي أَذًى مِنْ، ، رَأْسِي، فَحُمِلْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، فَقَالَ: " مَا كُنْتُ أَرَى أَنَّ الْجَهْدَ بَلَغَ بِكَ مَا أَرَى، أَتَجِدُ شَاةً؟ " فَقُلْتُ: لَا، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ} [البقرة: ١٩٦] ، قَالَ: " صَوْمُ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ إِطْعَامُ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ، نِصْفَ صَاعِ نِصْفَ صَاعِ (١) طَعَامٍ (٢) لِكُلِّ مِسْكِينٍ " قَالَ: فَنَزَلَتْ فِيَّ خَاصَّةً، وَهِيَ لَكُمْ عَامَّةً (٣)، ،

Abdullah bin Ma’qil (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I was present in the service of Ka’b bin ‘Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who was in the mosque, and I asked him about this verse: “Give a ransom, that is, fast, or give charity, or offer a sacrifice.” He said: This verse was revealed concerning me. I had pain in my head and was brought before the Prophet (ﷺ), and at that time lice were falling on my face. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: I did not think your pain would reach this extent. Do you have a goat? I said: No. At that moment, this verse was revealed: “Whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the head, then he should pay a ransom by fasting, or giving charity, or offering a sacrifice.” That is, he should fast for three days, or feed six needy people half a sa’ of wheat each. This verse was specific to my incident and general for you.

حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْأَصْبَهَانِيِّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَعْقِلٍ يَقُولُ: قَعَدْتُ إِلَى كَعْبٍ فِي هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ (١)،

Narrated to us by Affan, narrated to us by Shu'bah, narrated to us by Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Asbahani, he said: I heard Abdullah ibn Ma'qil say: I sat with Ka'b in this mosque, and he mentioned its meaning..

حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْأَصْبَهَانِيِّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَعْقِلٍ، قَالَ قَعَدْتُ إِلَى كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ فِي هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَقَالَ: " أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ كُلَّ مِسْكِينٍ نِصْفَ صَاعٍ مِنْ طَعَامٍ " (٢)،

Bahz narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Asbahani narrated to us, he said: I heard 'Abd Allah ibn Ma'qil, he said: I sat with Ka'b ibn 'Ujrah in this mosque, and I asked him about this verse, so he mentioned the hadith, and said: "Feed six needy people, each needy person half a sa' of food."

حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَا يَتَطَهَّرُ رَجُلٌ فِي بَيْتِهِ، ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ لَا يُرِيدُ إِلَّا الصَّلَاةَ، إِلَّا كَانَ فِي صَلَاةٍ، حَتَّى يَقْضِيَ صَلَاتَهُ، وَلَا يُخَالِفْ أَحَدُكُمْ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِ يَدَيْهِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ (٣) " (٤)، ،

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) say: When any one of you performs ablution and does it well, then leaves with the intention of prayer, he is considered to be in prayer until he finishes the prayer. Therefore, during this time, he should not interlace the fingers of his hands with each other.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى،، ، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، قَالَ: رَآنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَقَمْلِي يَتَسَاقَطُ عَلَى وَجْهِي، فَقَالَ: " أَتُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ هَذِهِ؟ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَحْلِقَ وَهُمْ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ، وَلَمْ يُبَيِّنْ لَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ يَحْلِقُونَ بِهَا، وَهُمْ عَلَى طَمَعٍ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا مَكَّةَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ الْفِدْيَةَ، فَأَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أُطْعِمَ فِرْقًا بَيْنَ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ، أَوْ أَصُومَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ أَذْبَحَ شَاةً (١)،

It is narrated from Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that during the time of Hudaybiyyah, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) came to me. My hair was very long. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Perhaps the lice on your head have troubled you a lot?" I replied, "Yes!"

The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) saw him and said, "On that day, he and his companions will be upon the truth." I followed him, caught hold of his shoulder, turned him towards the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), and asked, "This man?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Yes!" When I looked, it was Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him).

Abdullah bin Ma’qil (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I was present in the service of Ka’b bin ‘Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who was in the mosque, and I asked him about this verse: "He should give a ransom, that is, fast or give charity or offer a sacrifice." He said: This verse was revealed concerning me. I had pain in my head and I was presented before the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and at that time lice were falling on my face. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: I did not think that your pain would reach this extent. Do you have a goat? I said: No. At that moment, this verse was revealed: "And whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the head, then he should pay a ransom by fasting or giving charity or offering a sacrifice." That is, he should fast for three days or feed six needy people, half a sa’ of wheat to each. This verse was specific to my incident and general for you. It is narrated from Ka’b bin ‘Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that this verse of ransom was revealed concerning me. The previous hadith is also narrated from this second chain.

So whoever goes to them and declares their lies as truth and helps them in their oppression, he has no connection with me and I have no connection with him, and he will not be able to come to me at the Pond of Kawthar.

It is narrated from Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that we were in the state of Ihram at Hudaybiyyah with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ).

The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) passed by me and said, "Are the lice troubling you?" I replied, "Yes!" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) ordered, "Shave your head." On this occasion, this verse was revealed: "And whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the head (necessitating shaving), he should offer a ransom by fasting, or charity, or sacrifice." So the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) ordered me, "Fast for three days, or give charity of half a sa' of food to six needy people, or offer a sacrifice—whichever is easiest for you."

It is narrated from Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was sitting in Masjid Nabawi, leaning against the Qiblah. We were a total of seven people, four of whom were our freed slaves and three were of pure Arab descent. Meanwhile, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) came for the Zuhr prayer. Upon reaching us, the Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Why are you sitting here?" We replied, "O Messenger of Allah! We are waiting for the prayer." The Prophet (ﷺ) paused for a while, then raised his head and said, "Do you know what your Lord says?" We said, "Allah and His Messenger know best." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Your Lord says: Whoever performs the prayer at its appointed time, observes it regularly, and does not neglect its due right by considering it insignificant, I promise to admit him to Paradise. And whoever does not pray on time, does not observe it regularly, and neglects its due right by considering it insignificant, then I have no promise for him—if I wish, I will punish him, and if I wish, I will forgive him."
