Yazid bin Hayyan Tamimi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I, along with Husain bin Sabrah and Umar bin Muslim, went to the service of Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him). When we had sat down, Husain said, "O Zaid! You have attained great good. You have seen the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), heard his hadiths, participated in jihad with him, and prayed in his company. Therefore, you have been granted abundant goodness. Please narrate to us a hadith that you yourself heard from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)." He replied, "Nephew! I have grown old, my time has passed, and of the things I had preserved from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), I have forgotten some. So, if I narrate a hadith to you according to my ability, then accept it, otherwise do not compel me." Then he said, "One day, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) stood up to deliver a sermon near a spring between Makkah Mukarramah and Madinah Munawwarah, which is called 'Khumm.' After praising and glorifying Allah, he gave some advice and admonition, then said, 'Amma ba'd (to proceed): O people! I am only a human being. It may be that soon the messenger of my Lord will come to call me, and I will respond to his call. Remember! I am leaving among you two weighty things. The first is the Book of Allah, in which there is guidance and light. So hold fast to the Book of Allah.' Then the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) encouraged and drew attention to acting upon the Book of Allah. And he said, 'The second thing is my Ahl al-Bayt.' And he said three times, 'I remind you by Allah regarding the rights of my Ahl al-Bayt.' Husain asked, 'O Zaid! Who are meant by the Ahl al-Bayt of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)? Are the pure wives of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) not included among the Ahl al-Bayt?' He replied, 'The pure wives of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) are also among his Ahl al-Bayt, but here it means those people upon whom, after the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), charity is forbidden.' Husain asked, 'Who are those people?' He replied, 'The family of Aqil, the family of Ali, the family of Ja'far, and the family of Abbas.' Husain asked, 'Is charity forbidden for all of them?' He replied, 'Yes!'"

قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ: حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: بَعَثَ إِلَيَّ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقَالَ: مَا أَحَادِيثُ تُحَدِّثُهَا وَتَرْوِيهَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا نَجِدُهَا فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ؟ تُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ لَهُ حَوْضًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ: قَدْ حَدَّثَنَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَوَعَدَنَاهُ. قَالَ: كَذَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّكَ شَيْخٌ قَدْ خَرِفْتَ. قَالَ: إِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعَتْهُ أُذُنَايَ، وَوَعَاهُ قَلْبِي مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " مَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ مُتَعَمِّدًا، فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنْ جَهَنَّمَ " وَمَا كَذَبْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "، وَحَدَّثَنَا زَيْدٌ، فِي مَجْلِسِهِ قَالَ: " إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ لَيَعْظُمُ لِلنَّارِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ الضِّرْسُ مِنْ أَضْرَاسِهِ كَأُحُدٍ " (١)، ،
Yazid bin Hayan says that in the same gathering (which was mentioned in the previous hadith), Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) told us that once Ubaidullah bin Ziyad sent a message calling me. When I reached him, he said, "What are these ahadith that you keep narrating from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) which we do not find in the Book of Allah? You state that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) will have a pond in Paradise?" He replied, "This is something that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) himself told us and promised us." He said, "You are lying. You have grown old, so your mind is not working properly." He replied, "I have heard this saying of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) with my own ears and preserved it in my heart: 'Whoever deliberately attributes a false statement to me, let him make his abode in Hell.' And I have never lied about the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)." And in the same gathering, Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) also narrated this hadith before us: "In Hell, the body of a person of Hell will become very enlarged, to the extent that one of his molar teeth will be as large as Mount Uhud."

It is narrated from Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) that once a Jew cast a spell on the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), due to which the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) remained ill for several days. Then Jibreel came and said that a Jewish man has cast a spell on you; he has tied some knots on something and placed it in such-and-such well. You should send someone to bring it from there. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) sent Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), who took out that thing. Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) brought it, and the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) opened it. As each knot was untied, the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) became healthier, as if he had been released from a rope. However, the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) neither mentioned that Jew nor saw his face until his passing.

It is narrated from Zaid bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Jewish man came to the service of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Abul Qasim! Do you not think that the people of Paradise will eat and drink in Paradise?" He had already told his friends that if the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) affirmed this, then he would overpower him. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "By Him in Whose hand is my soul, why not! Every person of Paradise will be given the strength of a hundred men in eating, drinking, desires, and intercourse." The Jew said, "Then will the one who eats and drinks also face the issue of relieving himself?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The way of relieving themselves will be that they will sweat, which will flow from their skin, and from it will come the fragrance of musk, and their stomachs will become light."

It is narrated from Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that I participated in a (battle) with the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). (The chief of the hypocrites) Abdullah bin Ubayy said, "If we return to Madinah, the more honorable will surely expel the more humble from there." I came to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and informed him of what he had said. Abdullah bin Ubayy swore that he had not said any such thing. My people began to blame me and said, "What was your purpose in this?" I returned from there, saddened, and lay down to sleep. Shortly after, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) sent for me through a messenger. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said, "Allah Almighty has revealed your excuse and proven your truthfulness," and this verse was revealed: "They say, 'Do not spend on those who are with the Messenger of Allah... If we return to Madinah, the more honorable will surely expel the more humble from there.'" The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
