Narrated Abu Dhaar:
I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Which mosque was built first?" He replied, "Al-Masjid-ul-Haram." I
asked, "Which (was built) next?" He replied, "Al-Masjid-ul-Aqs-a (i.e. Jerusalem)." I asked, "What
was the period in between them?" He replied, "Forty (years)." He then added, "Wherever the time for
the prayer comes upon you, perform the prayer, for all the earth is a place of worshipping for you."
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 637:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "My example and the example o the people is like that of a person who lit a
fire and let the moths, butterflies and these insects fall in it." He also said, "There were two women,
each of whom had a child with her. A wolf came and took away the child of one of them, whereupon
the other said, 'It has taken your child.' The first said, 'But it has taken your child.' So they both car-
ried the case before David who judged that the living child be given to the elder lady. So both of
them went to Solomon bin David and informed him (of the case). He said, 'Bring me a knife so as to
cut the child into two pieces and distribute it between them.' The younger lady said, 'May Allah be
merciful to you! Don't do that, for it is her (i.e. the other lady's) child.' So he gave the child to the
younger lady."
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 638:
Narrated 'Abdullah:
When the Verse:-- 'Those who believe and mix not their belief with wrong." was revealed, the
companions of the Prophet said, "Who amongst us has not mixed his belief with wrong?" Then Allah
revealed: "Join none in worship with Allah, Verily joining others in worship with Allah is a great
wrong indeed."
Volume 4, Book 55, Number 639:
Narrated 'Abdullah:
When the Verse:-- 'Those who believe and mix not their belief with wrong.' was revealed, the
Muslims felt it very hard on them and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Who amongst us does not do wrong
to himself?" He replied, "The Verse does not mean this. But that (wrong) means to associate others in
worship to Allah: Don't you listen to what Luqman said to his son when he was advising him," O my
son! Join not others in worship with Allah. Verily joining others in worship with Allah is a great
wrong indeed." (31.13)
