حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ مَا نَسِيتُ فِيمَا نَسِيتُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يُرَى أَوْ نَرَى بَيَاضَ خَدَّيْهِ

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: i have not forgotten, among the things I forgot, that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to say the salam to his right and to his left, "As-salaam 'alaikum wa rahmatullah , fls- salamu ‘alaikum wa rahmatullah until the whiteness of his cheeks could be seen - or until we could see the whiteness of his cheeks.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ وَعَلْقَمَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُكَبِّرُ فِي كُلِّ رَفْعٍ وَوَضْعٍ وَقِيَامٍ وَقُعُودٍ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ حَتَّى أَرَى بَيَاضَ خَدِّهِ وَرَأَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ يَفْعَلَانِ ذَاكَ

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying takbeer every time he raised or lowered his head (in prayer), when standing and sitting, and he said the salam to his right and to his left, as-salamu 'alaikum zva rahmatullah, as-salamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullah, until I could see the whiteness of his cheek and I saw Abu Bakr and 'Umar doing likewise.

یَّمِیْنِہٖ ← رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ يُكَبِّرُ فِي كُلِّ رَفْعٍ وَوَضْعٍ وَقِيَامٍ وَقُعُودٍ وَيُسَلِّمُ ← عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ← الْأَسْوَدِ وَعَلْقَمَةَ ← عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، ← اَبُوْ اِسْحَاقِ ← زُهَيْرٍ ← أَبُو کَامِلٍ

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood (RA) that the Prophet (PBUH) said: "There is no one among you who does not have his companion from among the angels and from among the jinn.” They said: Even you, O Messenger of Allah?. He said: "Even me, but Allah helped me against him and he became Muslim, and he does not tell me to do anything but good.”

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood (RA) said: The two sons of Mulaikah came to the Prophet (PBUH) and said: Our mother honoured her husband, was kind to her children - and he mentioned guests - but she had buried an infant alive during the Jahiliyyah. He said: "Your mother is in the Fire." They turned away, looking upset. Then he ordered that they be called back, so they came back looking happy and hoping that something had happened. He said: "My mother is with your mother." One of the hypocrites said: This man cannot even help his mother yet we are following in his footsteps. One of the Ansar and I never saw any man ask more questions than him said: O Messenger of Allah, has your Lord made you any promise concerning her or concerning them (your parents)? He said: He thought that (this man) based it on something he heard. He said: " did not ask my Lord, and He did not promise me anything concerning that, even though i will stand in the station of praise and glory (al-maqamul-mahmood) on the Day of Resurrection." The Ansari said: What is that station of praise and glory? He said: That will be when you are brought, naked, barefoot and uncircumcised. The first one to be clothed will be Ibraheem. It will be said: 'Clothe My close friend.' And he will be given two white garments and will put them on, then he will sit facing the Throne. Then I will be given my garment and I will put it on, then I will stand on his right, in a position where no one will stand but me, and the first and the last will envy me for it." He said; "Then a channel will be opened up from al~Kavvthar to the Cistern." The hypocrites said: Water could only flow on mud or small pebbles. He said: O Messenger of Allah, will it flow on mud or small pebbles? He said: "Its mud is musk and its small pebbles are pearls." The hypocrite said: I have never heard anything like today; water hardly ever flows over mud or small pebbles but it must have some vegetation. The Ansari said: O Messenger of Allah, will it have any vegetation? He said: "Yes, reeds of gold." The hypocrite said: I have never heard anything like today. Reeds hardly ever grow but they have leaves and fruit. The Ansari said: O Messenger of Allah, will it have fruit? He said: "Yes; different kinds of gems, and its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. Whoever drinks one draught from it will never thirst after that, and if he is deprived of it, his thirst will never be quenched."

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: Saad bin Mu'adh set out to do 'umrah and he stayed with Safwan bin Umayyah bin Khalaf. When Umayyah went to Syria and passed by Madina h, he used to stay with Saad. Umayyah said to Saad: Wait until midday, when there are not many people around, then go and do tinvaf. Whilst Saad was doing tawaf Abu Jahl came to him and said: Who is this who is circumambulating the Ka'bah in safety?. Saad said: i am Saad. Abu Jahl said: Are you circumambulating the Ka'bah in safety when you have given refuge to Muhammad? And they traded insults. Umayyah said to Saad; Do not raise your voice to Abul-Hakarn, for he is the leader of the people of the valley. Saad said to him: By Allah, if you prevent me from circumambulating the House, i shall certainly cut off your trade with Syria. Umayyah kept saying: Do not raise your voice to Abul- Hakam, and he tried to hold him back. Saad got angry and said: Leave us alone, for I heard Muhammad (PBUH) saying that he is going to kill you. Umayyah said: Me? He said: Yes. He said: By Allah, Muhammad does not tell lies. Then when they left, he went back to his wife and said: Do you know what the Yathribi [i.e. Saad] said to me? And he told her about it. When the call for mobilization came and they set out for Badr, his wife said: Don't you remember what your brother the Yathribi said?. He wanted not to go out, but Abu Jahl said to him: You are one of the nobles of the valley; come with us for a day or two. So he went with them, and Allah, may He be exalted and glorified, caused him to be killed.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying the salam to his right, as-salamu 'alaikum wa rehmatulIah, until the whiteness of his right cheek could be seen, and to his left in like manner.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ أَبِي الْكَهْتَلَةِ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ أَظُنُّهُ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ مُحَمَّداً لَمْ يَرَ جِبْرِيلَ فِي صُورَتِهِ إِلَّا مَرَّتَيْنِ أَمَّا مَرَّةٌ فَإِنَّهُ سَأَلَهُ أَنْ يُرِيَهُ نَفْسَهُ فِي صُورَتِهِ فَأَرَاهُ صُورَتَهُ فَسَدَّ الْأُفُقَ وَأَمَّا الْأُخْرَى فَإِنَّهُ صَعِدَ مَعَهُ حِينَ صَعِدَ بِهِ وَقَوْلُهُ وَهُوَ بِالْأُفُقِ الْأَعْلَى ثُمَّ دَنَا فَتَدَلَّى فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَى فَأَوْحَى إِلَى عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَى قَالَ فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ جِبْرِيلُ رَبَّهُ عَادَ فِي صُورَتِهِ وَسَجَدَ فَقَوْلُهُ وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ نَزْلَةً أُخْرَى عِنْدَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى عِنْدَهَا جَنَّةُ الْمَأْوَى إِذْ يَغْشَى السِّدْرَةَ مَا يَغْشَى مَا زَاغَ الْبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغَى لَقَدْ رَأَى مِنْ آيَاتِ رَبِّهِ الْكُبْرَى قَالَ خَلْقَ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام

It was narrated from Ishaq bin Abil-Kahtalah: Muhammad said: I think it was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood that he said: Muhammad did not see Jibreel in his real form except on two occasions. On one occasion he asked him to show himself in his real form, so he showed him his real form and he filled the horizon. On the other occasion, it was when he ascended with him (to heaven). [Allah said:] "While he [Jibreel (Gabriel)] was in the highest part of the horizon, (Tafsecr Ibn Katheer). Then he [Jibreel (Gabriel)] approached and came closer. And was at a distance of two bows' length or (even) nearer. So (Allah) revealed to His slave [Muhammad (PBUH) through Jibreel (Gabriel)] whatever He revealed" [an-Najm 53:7-10], When Jibreel came close to his Lord, he went back to his real form and prostrated. [And Allah says:] "And indeed he (Muhammad (PBUH)) saw him [Jibreel (Gabriel)] at a second descent (i.e. another time). Near Sidratul-Muntaha (a lote tree of the utmost boundary over the seventh heaven beyond w'hich none can pass). Near it is the Paradise of Abode. When that covered the lote tree which did cover it! The sight (of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)) turned not aside (right or left), nor it transgressed beyond the limit (ordained for it). Indeed he (Muhammad (PBUH)) did see of the Greatest Signs, of his Lord (Allah)" [an-Najm 53:13-18], he [Ibn Mas'ood] said: Jibreel's real form.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ سَلْمَانَ عَنْ سَيَّارٍ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ جُلُوسًا فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ قَدْ أُقِيمَتْ الصَّلَاةُ فَقَامَ وَقُمْنَا مَعَهُ فَلَمَّا دَخَلْنَا الْمَسْجِدَ رَأَيْنَا النَّاسَ رُكُوعًا فِي مُقَدَّمِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَكَبَّرَ وَرَكَعَ وَرَكَعْنَا ثُمَّ مَشَيْنَا وَصَنَعْنَا مِثْلَ الَّذِي صَنَعَ فَمَرَّ رَجُلٌ يُسْرِعُ فَقَالَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فَقَالَ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ فَلَمَّا صَلَّيْنَا وَرَجَعْنَا دَخَلَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ جَلَسْنَا فَقَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ أَمَا سَمِعْتُمْ رَدَّهُ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَبَلَّغَتْ رُسُلُهُ أَيُّكُمْ يَسْأَلُهُ فَقَالَ طَارِقٌ أَنَا أَسْأَلُهُ فَسَأَلَهُ حِينَ خَرَجَ فَذَكَرَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ السَّاعَةِ تَسْلِيمَ الْخَاصَّةِ وَفُشُوَّ التِّجَارَةِ حَتَّى تُعِينَ الْمَرْأَةُ زَوْجَهَا عَلَى التِّجَارَةِ وَقَطْعَ الْأَرْحَامِ وَشَهَادَةَ الزُّورِ وَكِتْمَانَ شَهَادَةِ الْحَقِّ وَظُهُورَ الْقَلَمِ

It was narrated that Tariq bin Shihab said: We were sitting with 'Abdullah when a man came and said: The iqarnah (call immediately preceding the prayer) lias been given. So he got up and we got up with him, and when we entered the mosque we saw the people bowing at the front of the mosque, so he said takbecr and bowed, and we bowed, then we walked and did what he did. A man came rushing past and said, ' Alaikas-snlam (upon you be peace) O Abu 'Abdur-Rahman. He said: Allah and His Messenger spoke the truth. When we had prayed and gone back, he went in to sec his family and we sat and said to one another; Did you not hear his response to the man: Allah spoke the truth and His Messengers conveyed (the message)? Which of you will ask him? Tariq said: I will ask him. So he asked him when he came out, and he narrated from the Prophet (PBUH): "Ahead of the Hour, greetings of salam will only be given to people whom one knows; commerce will become so wide- spread that a woman will help her husband in trade; ties of kinship will be severed; there will be false testimony and concealment of testimony; and there will be widespread use of the pen (i.e., literacy)."

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) was taught all that is good and how to attain it. We did not know what to say in prayer until he taught us and said: "At- Tahiyyatu Lillahi was-salawatu wat Tayyibatu . As-salamu 'alaika ayyuhan-Nabiyyu wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu. As-salamu ‘alainn wa 'ala 'ibadillahis-saliheen . Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah wa ash hadu anna Muhammadan 'abduhu wa rasooluh (All compliments, prayers and pure words are due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Peace be upon us and upon the righteous slaves of Allah. I bear witness that there is no god except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger)."

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah ((PBUH) used to say the sal am to his right and to his left until the whiteness of his cheek could be seen: As-salamu ' alaikum wa rahmatullah,"

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: I did not forget, among the things I forgot from the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), that he used to say satam to his right, as-salamu ' alaikum wa rahmatullah, (turning) so far that the whiteness of his cheek could be seen, and to his left, as-salamu alnikuw wa rahmatullah, (turning) so far that the whiteness of his cheek could be seen.

Al-Waleed bin al-'Aizar bin Huraith said: I heard Abu 'Amr ash-Shaibani say: The owner of this house - and he pointed to the house of 'Abdullah (RA) but he did not name him - said: I asked the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) which deed is dearest to Allah? He said: "Prayer offered on time." I said: Then which? He said: "Then honouring one's parents.” I said: Then which? He said: "Then jihad for the sake of Allah." He told me about them and if I had asked him for more he would have told me more.

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "Whoever says, 'O Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, I give You my covenant in the life of this world that i bear witness that there is no God but You alone with no partner or associate, and that Muhammad is Your slave and Your Messenger; if you leave me to my own devices, You will cause me to get closer to evil and cause me to get further away from good. Verily i trust nothing but Your mercy, so make a covenant for me with You, that You will fulfil for me on the Day of Resurrection, for You never break Your covenant,' Allah will say to His Angels on the Day of Resurrection: 'My slave made a covenant with Me, so fulfil it for him’. And Allah will admit him to Paradise," Suhail said: and al- Qasim bin 'Abdur-Rahman told me that 'Awn told him such and such. He said: There is no young girl among our family who docs not say this (du'a') in her seclusion,

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: When we prayed behind the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), one o( us would say in his prayer: Peace be upon Allah, peace be upon So and so, mentioning some specific names. Then the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said to us one day: "Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, is as Salam, so when one of you sits in his prayer, let him say: 'All compliments, prayers and pure words arc due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Peace be upon us, and on the righteous slaves of Allah' - If you say that, you will have sent salams upon every slave (of Allah) in the heavens and on earth - 'I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger’. Then let him choose whatever supplication he wants or he likes."

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: When we sat in the prayer, we would say: Peace be upon Allah, peace be upon us from our Lord, peace be upon Jibrccl and Mika'eel, peace be upon So and so, peace be upon So and so. Then the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: “Allah is as-Salam, so when you sit in the prayer, say: 'All compliments, prayers and pure words are due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Peace be upon us, and on the righteous slaves of Allah' - for if you say that, it will reach every righteous slave in heaven and on earth - 'I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger’.

'Abdullah bin Sakhbarah Abu Ma'mar said: I heard Ibn Mas'ood (4fc) say: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) taught me the fashahhurf with my hand between his hands - as he would teach me a soorah of the Qur'an. He said: All compliments, prayers and pure words are due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings. Peace be upon us, and on the righteous slaves of Allah. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. (That was) when he was still among us; when he passed away we began to say: peace be upon the Prophet.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah that the Prophet (PBUH) said: "The best of the people are my generation who are with me, then those who come after them, then those who come after them." And I do not know whether he said after the third or fourth time: "There will come people after them one of whose testimony will come before his oath and his oath before his testimony.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah (RA) said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying takbeer with every bow r ing and prostration, every time he raised or lowered his head (in prayer), and I saw Abu Bakr and 'Umar (doing likewise), and they said the sal am to their right and to their left, assalamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullah.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said: I asked the Messenger of Allah (PBUH): Which deed is best? He said: "Praver offered on time, honouring one's parents, and jihad for the sake of Allah." And if I had asked for more, he would have given me more.
