Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ood

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood (رضي الله عنه) that

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The last person to enter Paradise will be a man. He will walk once, crawl once, and the Fire will rise above him once. When he has crossed it, he will turn to it and say: ‘Blessed be the One Who has saved me from you. Allah has given me that which was not given to anyone of the first and the last. Then a tree will be raised for him and he will say: 'O Lord, bring me close to this tree, so that I might seek its shade and drink from its water," Allah will say to him: "O son of Adam, perhaps if I give it to you, you will ask Me for something else.' He will say: ‘No, O Lord,’ and he will promise Him that he will not ask Him for anything else, and his Lord will excuse him, because he is seeing that which he has no patience to refrain from asking for. So He will bring him close to it and he will seek its shade and drink its water. Then (another) tree will be raised up for him that is more beautiful than the first one. He will say: 'O Lord, (bring me close to) this one, so I may drink from its water and seek its shade, and I will not ask You for anything else. He will say: 'O son of Adam, did you not promise Me that you would not ask Me for anything else? Perhaps if I bring you close to it, you will ask Me for something else? And he will make a promise to Him not to ask Him for anything else, and his Lord will excuse him, because he is seeing that which he has no patience to refrain from asking for. So He will bring him close to it and he will seek its shade and drink its water. Then a tree will be raised up for him at the gate of Paradise, and it will be more beautiful than the first two. He will say: 'O Lord, bring me close to this tree, so that I might seek its shade and drink from its water, and I will not ask You for anything else.' He will say: ‘O son of Adam, did you not promise Me that you would not ask Me for anything else?" He will say: "Yes indeed, O Lord, (bring me close to) this one, and I will not ask You for anything else." He will say: ‘Perhaps if I bring you close to it, you will ask Me for something else?" And he will make a promise to Him not to ask Him for anything else, and his Lord will excuse him, because he is seeing that which he has no patience to refrain from asking for. So He will bring him close to it, and when He brings him close to it, he will hear the voices of the people of Paradise, and he will say: 'O Lord, admit me to it. He will say: 'O son of Adam, what will make you stop asking of Me? would it please you if I give you of Paradise the equivalent of the world and as much again?" He will say: 'O Lord, are you mocking me, when You are the Lord of the Worlds?” Ibn Mas'ood smiled and said: Why don't you ask me why I am smiling? They said: Why are you smiling? He said: Because the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) smiled, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to us: "Why don't you ask me why I am smiling?" They said: Why are you smiling, O Messenger of Allah? He said: "Because the Lord smiled when he said, "Are you mocking me, when You are the Lord of the Worlds?" and He will say: “I am not mocking you, but I am able to do whatever l will."

It was narrated from ‘Abdullah (رضي الله عنه) that

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "For every betrayer there will be a banner on the Day of Resurrection.”

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Mas'ood (رضي الله عنه) said:

On the day of Badr we were three men to one camel, and Abu Lubabah and 'Ali bin Abi Talib were the two who rode with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). It was the turn of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) to walk, and they said: We will walk and let you ride. He said: "You are not stronger than me and I am not in Iess need of reward than you."

Abu Wa'il said: I heard 'Abdullah (رضي الله عنه) say:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) divided some booty one day and a man among the people said: This is a division (of booty) that was not done for the sake of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted! I went to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and told him about that. He got angry and I could see the signs of anger on his face. Then he said: "May Allah have mercy on Moosa, he was annoyed with more than this and he was patient.”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wrote concerning zakah on cattle. “When (the number of cattle) reaches thirty, a one year old, male or female, is due (as zakah), up to forty. When (the number) reaches forty, a two year old, male or female, is due (as zakah). If the number of cattle is great, then for every forty, a two year old cow is due (as zakah)."

An-Nazzal bin Sabrah said:

I heard a man reciting a verse differently than the way the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught it to me, so I took him by the hand and brought him to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), who said: “Both of you are good; do not differ." To the best of my knowledge, or as Mis'ar narrated it to me, “For those who came before you differed concerning it, then they were doomed."

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

I heard a man reciting a verse differently than the way the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught it to me, so I took him by the hand and brought him to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), who said: “Both of you have done well.” And he got so angry that anger could be seen in his face. Shu'bah said: I think it most likely that he said: “Do not differ, for those who came before you differed concerning it, then they were doomed.”

How do you read this phrase: ma'in ghairi yasin or asin (in the verse, "water the taste and smell of which are not changed (ma'in ghairi asin)" (Muhammad 47:15))? `Abdullah said to him. Have you read all the Qur'an except this? He said: I recite al-Mufassal in one rak'ah. ‘Abdullah said: Do you recite Qur'an as you recite poetry (i.e., quickly)? I learned the pairs of soorahs that the Messenger of Allah used to recite together, pair by pair, from the beginning of al-Mufassal. And the beginning of al-Mufassal according to Ibn Mas'ood was (Soorat) ar-Rahman.

It was narrated that Ibn Udhnan said:

I loaned two thousand dirhams to Alqamah, then when he received his stipend, I said to him: Pay me back. He said: Give me respite until next year. But I insisted that he pay and I took it.

I said: You told me from Ibn Mas'ood (رضي الله عنه) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Lending money is akin to charity.” He said: Yes, that is so. He said: Then take (a loan) now.

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."

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 (رضي الله عنه) said:

When we sat in the prayer, we would say: Peace be upon Allah, peace be upon us from our Lord, peace be upon Jibreel and Mika'eel, peace be upon So and so, peace be upon So and so. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Allah is as-Salam, so when you sit in the pгаyeг, say: ‘All compliments, prayers and pure words are due to Allah. Peace be upon you, O Prophet (ﷺ), 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.
