It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that
When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) halted at Marraz-Zahran during his 'umrah, news reached the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) that Quraish were saying: They have no energy because they are so lean. His Companions said: How about if we slaughter some of our mounts, and eat their meat and drink its broth, then tomorrow when we enter upon the people, we will have some energy? He said: "Do not do that; rather gather what you have in your sacks.” So they collected it and spread it out on leather mats, then they ate until they were full, and each of them took some to put in his sack. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) set off and entered the mosque, then he sat near the Hijr and uncovered his right shoulder, then he said: "The people should not see any sign of weakness in you.” Then he touched the Corner, then he started (tawaf) and when he disappeared from sight after the Yemeni corner, he walked until he reached the corner where the Black Stone is, Quraish said: They are not content just to walk; they are as lively as gazelles! He did that in three circuits, and it was Sunnah. Abut-Tufail said: Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) told me that the Prophet (ﷺ) did that during the Farewell Pilgrimage.
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:
A beautiful woman used to pray behind the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Some of the people would go forward to stand in the front row so as not to see her, and some would lag behind to stand in the back row, and when they bowed they would look from under their armpits. Then Allah revealed concerning her the words: "To Us are known those of you who hasten forward, and those who lag behind" (al-Hijr 15:24).
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that
A Jewish woman gave the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) some poisoned mutton. He sent word to her, asking: "What made you do what you did?" She said: I wanted, if you were a Prophet, that Allah would tell you about it, and if you were not a Prophet then I would have rid the people of you. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) felt any pain because of that, he would be treated with cupping. On one occasion he travelled, and when he entered ihram, he felt some pain because of that and was treated with cupping.
Katheer bin 'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin ‘Awf al-Muzani narrated from his father, from his grandfather, that
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) allocated to Bilal bin al-Harith al-Muzani the mines of al-Qabaliyyah, both the upper and lower part and where the land is suitable for cultivation, and he did not give him anything that rightfully belonged to any Muslim. And the Prophet (ﷺ) wrote a document for him: “In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah has given to Bilal bin al-Harith al-Muzani: he has given him the mines of al-Qabaliyyah, both the upper and lower part, and where the land is suitable for cultivation, and he has not given him anything that rightfully belongs to any Muslim."
Ummul-Fadl bint al-Harith sent him to Mu'awiyah in Syria. He said: So I came to Syria and did her errand, then the month of Ramadan began when I was in Syria, and we saw the new moon on the night before Friday. Then I came to Madinah at the end of the month and 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) asked me about the new moon. He said: when did you see the new moon? I said: We saw it on the night before Friday. He said: Did you see it? I said: Yes and the people saw it and fasted, and Mu'awiyah fasted. He said: But we saw it on the night before Saturday, we will carry on fasting until we complete thirty days or we see it (the new moon of Shawwal). I said: Is not the sighting and fasting of Mu'awiyah sufficient for you? He said: No, this is the command of the Prophet (ﷺ).
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and his Companions did 'Umrah from Ji'ranah, and they wrapped their rida's (upper garments) under their arms. Yoonus said: And they threw (the ends) over their left shoulders.
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that Quraish said:
Muhammad and his companions have been exhausted by the fever of Yathrib. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came in the year he did ‘umrah, he said to his Companions: “Trot around the House three times to show the mushrikeen your strength.” And when they did that, Quraish said: They are not exhausted by it.
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Jibreel took Ibraheem to Jamratal-'Aqabah, where the Shaitan appeared to him; he struck him with seven pebbles and he sank into the ground. Then he took him to al-Jamratal-Wusta, where the Shaitan appeared to him; he struck him with seven pebbles and he sank into the ground. Then he came to al-Jamratal-Quswa (the furthest Jamrah) where the Shaitan appeared to him; he struck him with seven pebbles and he sank into the ground. And when Ibraheem wanted to slaughter his son lshaq, (the latter) said to his father: O my father, tie me up so that I will not shake, lest my blood come on you when you slaughter me. So he tied him up, but when he took out the blade and wanted to slaughter him, a ram came from behind him: “O Abraham! You have fulfilled the dream” (as-Saffat 37:104,105).
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"The [Black) Stone will be raised on the Day of Resurrection with two eyes with which to see and a tongue with which to speak, and it will testify for everyone who touched it with due respect."
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that
The Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite in Fajr prayer on Friday, Alif-Lam-Meem Tanzeel (Soorat as-Sajdah) and Hal ata 'alal-insan heenun minad-dahr (Soorat al-Insan).
It was narrated from Shu'bah, the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbas:
When Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) did ghusl in the case of janabah, he would scoop water with his right hand onto his left and wash it seven times before putting it into the vessel. On one occasion he forgot how many times he had scooped water unto his hand, so he asked me (Shu'bah). How many times did I scoop water? I said: I do not know. He said: May you be bereft of your mother! Why don't you know? Then he did wudoo' as for prayer, then he poured water over his head and body. He said: This is how the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to purify himself, i.e., do ghusl.
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:
When Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed the words, “And warn your tribe (O Muhammad (ﷺ)) of near kindred'' (ash-Shu'ara 26:214), the Prophet (ﷺ) went to as-Safa and climbed it, then he called out, "Ya sabahah!" (a cry of alarm). The people gathered around him; some men came themselves, and others sent envoys (to find out what was happening). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “O Banu Abdul-Muttalib, O Banu Fihr" and so on (calling each clan). “Do you think that if I told you there was a cavalry at the bottom of this mountain, wanting to attack you, would you believe me?” They said: Yes. He said: “I am a warner to you ahead of a severe punishment." Abu Lahab said: May you perish for the rest of the day! Did you call us only for this? Then Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed the words: "Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab (an uncle of the Prophet) and perish he!” (al-Masad 111:1).
It was narrated that Ibn Juraij said: ‘Ikrimah the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbas told me that Ibn 'Abbas told him:
The Prophet (ﷺ) shared out some sheep among his Companions on the Day of Sacrifice and said: “Slaughter them for your 'Umrah, for they will be sufficient for that." And Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas got a male goat.
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that he was riding behind the Prophet (ﷺ), who said:
"O young boy, shall I not tell you of some words by which Allah may benefit you?" I said: Of course. He said: “Be mindful of Allah and He will protect you. Be mindful of Allah and you will find Him in front of you. Acknowledge Him at times of ease and He will acknowledge you (and help you) at times of hardship. If you ask, ask of Allah; if you seek help, seek help from Allah. The Pen has been lifted with regard to what will be, so if all of mankind wanted to benefit you with something that Allah has not decreed for you, they will not be able to do it, and if they wanted to harm you with something that Allah has not decreed for you, they will not be able to do it. Know that there is a great deal of good in patiently bearing what is disliked, victory comes with patience and relief comes with distress and with hardship comes ease.”
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said:
I came with some boys of Banu 'Abdul-Muttalib, riding a donkey, when the Prophet (ﷺ) was praying. We let the donkey loose to graze in front of him, and he did not interrupt his prayer. And two young girls of Banu ‘Abdul-Muttalib came racing, and the Prophet (ﷺ) separated them, but he did not interrupt his prayer, And a lamb fell in front of him and he did not interrupt his prayer.
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that
One of the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) did ghusl following janabah. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) came and did ghusl with her left over water. She said: I did ghusl from it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Nothing makes water najis (impure)."
