Hadith

Explanation of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) going through difficulty when passing away

Q: Please explain the meanings of these Ahadith:

Hazrat Aisha narrates: “Having seen the agony the Prophet suffered while dying, I will not envy anyone’s easy death.” (Tirmidhi, Dead, 8).

In another narration, Hazrat Aisha said: “The Messenger of Allah died on my chest. Having seen it with the Messenger of Allah, I will not consider the severity of death bad for anyone.” (Nasai, Dead, 6).

Beating the duff in the musjid

Q: I came across this hadith: Aisha (Radiyallahu Anha) narrates that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, “Proclaim the nikah. Have it done in the masjids. Beat the daffs (tambourine drums without jingling discs or bells) for the occasion.” (Tirmizi vol. 1 pg. 207 Qadeemi) So is it permissible to beat the daff in masjid?

Drinking rainwater

Q: According to a Hadith, rainwater is shifa for all diseases. Does this also apply to drinking rainwater which has been taken out from the ground? Because when it rains, the rainwater passes through rocks and is stored underground and taken out through machines for drinking. So is it necessary to collect and drink the rainwater before it falls to the ground or will the underground water also have the same benefits for Shifa?

Hazrat Ali (Radhiyallahu Anhu) wishing to marry the daughter of Abu Jahl

Q: There is a hadith about Fatima (radhiyallahu anha) being offended of Ali (radhiyallahu anhu) taking Abu Jahel's daughter as another wife. Is it because he was marrying a disbeliever or it's because of taking another wife besides her? And our Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam)'s saying whatever troubles Fatima (radhiyallahu anha) also troubles him. Is it about taking another wife? What teachings should we get from this hadith?

Verification of a Hadith

Q: I read a hadith that says"There are three individuals that, when they supplicate to Allah (Azz’ Wa Jal), their supplication is not answered: a man who has a woman of bad character and he does not divorce her, a man to whom another man owes money and he does not have witnesses over him, and a man who gives money to a weakminded person."

Does that mean that if one does these things none of his dua will ever be accepted? How does one get his dua accepted again if he does these things?

Hadith on staying awake on the nights of Eid

Q:

عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ رضي الله عنه عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : (مَنْ قَامَ لَيْلَتَيْ الْعِيدَيْنِ مُحْتَسِبًا لِلَّهِ لَمْ يَمُتْ قَلْبُهُ يَوْمَ تَمُوتُ الْقُلُوبُ رواه ابن ماجة

Is this Hadith correct? Can we attribute it to the Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)?

Meaning of a Hadith

Q: There is a Hadith in which it is mentioned:

Allah Ta'ala will gather all the human beings of early generations as well as later generations on one plain so that the announcer will be able to make them all hear his voice and the watcher will be able to see all of them. Does the word announcer and watcher refer to Allah? Also, is Allah attributes with a voice?
