Jabir bin Samurah (May Allah be pleased with them) said:
The inhabitants of Kufah complained to `Umar
(May Allah be pleased with him) against Sa`d bin Abu Waqqas (May Allah be pleased with him) and `Umar (May
Allah be pleased with him) appointed `Ammar (May Allah be pleased with him) as Governor of Kufah in his place.
Their complaint was that he did not even conduct As-Salat (the prayers) properly. `Umar (May Allah be pleased
with him) sent for Sa`d and said to him: "O Abu Ishaq, the people claim that you do not offer the Salat properly.''
Sa`d replied: "By Allah! I observe Salat according to the Salat of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), and I make no
decrease in it. I prolong Qiyam (standing) in the first two Rak`ah in Maghrib and `Isha' prayers and shorten in the
last ones.'' `Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) said: "This is what I thought of you, O Abu Ishaq!'' Then he sent
with him a man (or some men) to Kufah to investigate the matter about him (from the people of Kufah). The inquiry
was conducted in every mosque and all the people in these mosques praised him; but in the mosque of the Banu
`Abs, a man, with the name of Usamah bin Qatadah and surname Abu Sa`dah, stood up and said, "Sa`d bin Abu
Waqqas did not participate in Jihad and he did not distribute the spoils equitably and did not judge justly.'' On this
Sa`d said: "I shall make three supplications in respect of him: O Allah! If this slave of Yours is a liar and seeker of
notoriety, please prolong his life and lengthen his period of adversity and afflict him with trials.'' (And so did it
happen.) Thereafter, when the man was asked about his condition he would say, "I am an old man afflicted with
trials and overtaken by the curses of Sa`d.''
`Abdul-Malik bin `Umair (a subnarrator) said: I saw this man with eyebrows hung over his eyes as a result of his old
age and he walked aimlessly, following young girls and winking at them
.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith brings out the following four points:
1. The distinction of Sa`d bin Abu Waqqas (May Allah be pleased with him) and the fact that his prayers were
granted by Allah.
2. The principle that if inquiry is conducted against anybody, one should inquire the opinion of the righteous and
worthy people about the person against whom complaint is made.
3. Government officials can be dismissed in the interest of public good, as `Umar (May Allah be pleased with him)
dismissed Sa`d bin Abu Waqqas although the complaints made against him were false, but `Umar thought it wise to
dismiss him so that no one amongst his subject would show hatred towards him.
4. This Hadith also proves the correctness of marvels. The acceptance of the prayer of Sa`d bin Abu Waqqas is an
instance of it.

`Urwah bin Az-Zubair (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Arwa bint Aus brought a suit against Sa`id
bin Zaid bin `Amr bin Nufail (May Allah be pleased with him). She complained to Marwan bin Al-Hakam that he
had wrongfully taken possession of a portion of her land. Sa`id said: "How can I take a portion out of her land while
I have heard a denunciation from the Messenger of Allah (PBUH).'' Marwan asked him: "What did you hear from
the Messenger of Allah?'' He said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying, `
He who takes a span of land
unjustly will be made to wear seven earths round his neck on the Day of Ressurection'
.'' Marwan said to him: "I
don't seek proof from you after this.'' Sa`id supplicated: "O Allah! If she is a liar, deprive her of her eye sight and
