Abu Musa al-Ash'ari related that the Prophet, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, was sitting in a walled garden on the rim of a
well, dangling his feet into the well.
Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, used to say when he left his house, "In the Name of Allah.
Reliance is on Allah. There is no power nor strength except by Allah."
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عِمْرَانَ، عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: مَنْ بَاتَ عَلَى إِنْجَارٍ فَوَقَعَ مِنْهُ فَمَاتَ، بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ الذِّمَّةُ، وَمَنْ رَكِبَ الْبَحْرَ حِينَ يَرْتَجُّ، يَعْنِي: يَغْتَلِمُ، فَهَلَكَ بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ الذِّمَّةُ.
Zuhayr reported that one of the Companions of the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "If anyone spends the night
on a flat roof (without walls) and then falls off of it and dies, no one
bears any responsibility for him. If anyone embarks on the sea when it
is fierce (i.e. stormy) and is destroyed, no one bears any responsibility
for him."
