2310 At a different and later stage in the scene, Pharaoh's Chiefs call Moses a "sorcerer well-versed" (vii. 109). Here<br />

Moses, who had come with the Nine Signs but had not yet shown them, is reproached with being the object of<br />

sorcery: he is practically told that he is mad! (17.101)<br />

7:133 - So We sent (plagues) on them wholesale death Locusts Lice Frogs and Blood: signs openly<br />

Self-explained; but they were steeped in arrogance a people given to sin. 10901091<br />

1090 Tufan = a widespread calamity, causing wholesale death and destruction. It may be a flood, or a typhoon, or an<br />

epidemic, among men or cattle. Perhaps the last is meant, if we may interpret by the Old Testament story. See also<br />

Exod. ix. 3, 9, 15; xii. 29. (7.133)<br />

1091 In xvii. 101, the reference is to nine Clear Signs. These are: (1) the Rod (vii. 107), (2) the Radiant Hand<br />

(vii. 108), (3) the years of drought or shortage of water (vii, 130), (4) short crops (vii. 130), and the five<br />

mentioned in this verse, viz., (5) epidemics among men and beasts, (6) locusts, (7) lice, (8) frogs, and (9)<br />

the water turning to blood. (7.133)<br />

18:25 - So they stayed in their Cave three hundred years and (some) add nine (more). 2365<br />

27:48 - There were in the City nine men of a family who made mischief in the land and would not<br />

reform. 3286<br />

3286 They had made up their minds to wage a relentless war against justice. They did not destroy justice, but justice<br />

destroyed them. (27.48)<br />

Hadith 4631<br />

Narrated by<br />

Sa'id ibn Zayd ibn Amr ibn Nufayl<br />

Abdullah ibn Zalim al-Mazini said: I heard Sa'id ibn Zayd ibn Amr ibn Nufayl say: When so and so came to Kufah, and made<br />

so and so stand to address the people, Sa'id ibn Zayd caught hold of my hand and said: Are you seeing this tyrant? I bear<br />

witness to the nine people that they will go to Paradise. If I testify to the tenth too, I shall not be sinful. I asked: Who are the<br />

nine? He said: The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) said when he was on Hira': Be still, Hira', for only a Prophet, or an<br />

ever-truthful, or a martyr is on you. I asked: Who are those nine? He said: The Apostle of Allah, AbuBakr, Umar, Uthman,<br />

Ali, Talhah, az-Zubayr, Sa'd ibn AbuWaqqas and AbdurRahman ibn Awf. I asked: Who is the tenth? He paused a moment<br />

and said: it is I.<br />

General Chapter on Idda of Divorce<br />

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said and from Yazid ibn Abdullah ibn Qusayt al-Laythi that Said ibn al-<br />

Musayyab said, ''Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'If a woman is divorced and has one or two periods and then stops menstruating,<br />

she must wait nine months. If it is clear that she is pregnant, that is that. If not, she must do an idda of three months after the<br />

nine, and then she is free to marry.' "<br />

have the idda."<br />

the doctors are unable to cure."<br />
