And he narrated the same report.

‘Abdur-Razzaq narrated from Ma'mar...

And he narrated the same report.

’Ubaidullah said: I asked 'Abdullah bin ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) about the dream of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) that he told us about, Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: I was told that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

"Whilst I was sleeping I saw two golden bangles placed on my hands, and I was frightened of them and disliked them. Then permission was given to me to blow them away, and they flew away. I interpreted it as referring to two liars who would appear." 'Ubaidullah said: One of them was al-'Ansi who was killed by Fairooz in Yemen, and the other was Musailimah.

Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:

I came, when I was at the age of puberty, riding on a female donkey when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was leading the people in prayer in Mina, and passed in front of part of the first row. Then I dismounted and she started to graze, and I joined the people behind the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).

Muhammad bin 'Amr bin ‘Ata' bin 'Abbas bin 'Alqamah, from Banu 'Amir bin Lu'ayy said:

I entered upon Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) in the house of Maimoonah, the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ), on a Friday morning; Maimoonah had given the house to him in her will. When he prayed Jumu’ah, some carpets would be spread out for him in it, and when he had finished [Jumu’ah], he would go there and sit there to meet people. A man asked him, when I was listening, about doing wudoo’ after [eating] food cooked by fire. Ibn ‘Abbas raised his hand to his eyes - and he had lost his sight - and said: These two eyes of mine saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) do wudoo' for Zuhr prayer in one of his apartments, then Bilal gave the call to prayer and he got up to leave. When he stood at the door of the apartment, he was given a gift of bread and meat that one of his Companions had sent to him. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went back, along with those who were with him, and the food was set out for them in the apartment. He ate and they ate, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) got up, along with those who were with him, to pray and neither he nor the people with him touched water (did wudoo’). Then he led them in prayer. And Ibn 'Abbas only reached an age at which he could understand the words and conduct of the Prophet (ﷺ) towards the end of the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) circumambulated [the Ka'bah] on his camel, and every time he came to the Corner, he pointed at it and said takbeer.

It was narrated that `Ata' bin Abi Rabah said: I heard Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) say:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) died when I had just been circumcised.[1] [1]At that time, boys would be circumcised when they reached puberty.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:

Banu Sa'd bin Bakr sent Dimam bin Tha’labah to meet the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He came to him and made his camel kneel at the door of the mosque, then he hobbled it, and he entered the mosque when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was sitting with his Companions. Dimam was a tough and hairy man with two braids. He came and stood over the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and his Companions and said: Which of you is the son of 'Abdul-Muttalib? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I am the son of 'Abdul-Muttalib." He said: Muhammad? He said: "Yes." He said: O son of 'Abdul-Muttalib, I am going to ask you some questions and I will be tough in my questioning, so do not be upset. He said: “I will not be upset. Ask whatever you want." He said: I adjure you by Allah your God, the God of those who came before you and the God of those who come after you, has Allah sent you to us as a Messenger? He said: “Yes, by Allah.” He said: I adjure you by Allah your God, the God of those who came before you and the God of those who come after you, has Allah commanded you to instruct us to worship Him alone, not associating anything with Him, and to give up these rivals whom our forefathers worshipped alongside Him? He said: “Yes, by Allah." He said: I adjure you by Allah your God, the God of those who came before you and the God of those who come after you, has Allah commanded you to instruct us to offer these five prayers? He said: “Yes, by Allah." Then he started asking about the duties of Islam, one by one: zakah, fasting and Hajj, and all the laws of Islam, adjuring him each time as he adjured him previously until, when he had finished, he said: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. I shall do these duties and avoid what you have forbidden to me, no more and no less. Then he went back to his camel and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said when he left: "If the one with the two braids meant what he said, he will enter Paradise.” [The man] went to his camel, unhobbled it and departed. He came to his people, who gathered around him, and the first thing he said was: How bad al-Lat and al-'Uzza are! They said: Be quiet, O Dimam! Fear leprosy and elephantiasis for yourself; fear insanity. He said: Woe to you; by Allah they cannot do any harm or bring any benefit. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, has sent a Messenger and revealed a Book to him that will save you from what you are in. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, with no partner or associate, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. I have come to you from him with what he enjoins upon you and forbids to you. By Allah, by the time evening came, there was no one present, man woman, who had not become Muslim. Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: We have never heard of any delegate of a people better than Dimam bin Tha'labah.

It was narrated from Ibn Ishaq: Muhammad bin al-Waleed bin Nuwaifi', the freed slave of az-Zubair, told me...

And he narrated the same report in brief.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:

The fear prayer was just like the prayer of these guards of yours today behind your imam, except that it was done by one group after another, although they were all with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). One group prostrated with him, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood up and those who had been standing up by themselves prostrated, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood up and they all stood up with him. Then they all bowed with him, then he prostrated, and those who had been standing up the first time prostrated, and those who had prostrated the first time stood up. And when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and those who had prostrated with him sat at the end of the prayer, those who had been standing by themselves prostrated, then they sat, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led them all in saying the tasleem.

It was narrated that Tawoos al-Yamani said: I said to ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه): They are saying that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

"Do ghusl on Friday, and wash your heads, even if you are not junub, and put on perfume." And Ibn 'Abbas said: As for perfume, I do not know, but as for ghusl, then yes.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) used to say:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to recite in the two rak'ahs before Fajr the Opening of the Qur'an (al-Fatihah) and the last two verses of Sooratal-Baqarah in the first rak’ah, and in the second rak'ah the Opening of the Qur'an and this verse from Al 'Imran: “Say (O Muhammad (ﷺ)): “O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): Come to a word that is just between us and you..." [Al ‘Imran 3:64] to the end of the verse.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:

Rukanah bin 'Abd Yazeed, a man of Banul-Muttalib, divorced his wife thrice in one sitting, then he missed her sorely. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) asked him: “How did you divorce her?" He said: I divorced her thrice. He said: “In one sitting?" He said: Yes. He said: “That is only one divorce (talaq); take her back if you want." So he took her back, Ibn 'Abbas thought that talaq is only to be done just after the woman becomes pure from menses.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

"When your brothers were slain at Uhud, Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, put their souls in the crops of green birds that drink from the rivers of Paradise and eat from its fruits, and they return to roost in golden lamps in the shade of the Throne. When they saw how good their drink and food are and how good the place where they stay, they said: O Lord, would that our brothers knew what Allah has done for us, so they would not lose interest in jihad or abandon fighting. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, said: I shall convey that to them for you. And Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed these verses to His Messenger: “Think not of those as dead who are killed" [Al ‘Imran 3:169].
