Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ood

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said:

We were sitting in the mosque on the night before Friday, and a man among the Ansar said: If one of us sees a man with his wife and kills him, you will kill him, and if he speaks, you will flog him, but if he keeps quiet, he is keeping quiet when he is feeling frustrated and angry. By Allah, if I wake up safe and sound in the morning, I shall certainly ask The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). So he asked him: O Messenger of Allah, if one of us sees a man with his wife and kills him, you will kill him, and if he speaks, you will flog him, but if he keeps quiet, he is keeping quiet when he is feeling frustrated and angry. O Allah, pass judgement. Then the verse of li’an was revealed, and that man was the first one to be tested with this experience.

It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahman bin Yazeed said:

I saw ‘Abdullah stone the Jamrah from the bottom of the valley, then he said: Here - by the One besides Whom there is no other God - the one to whom Sooratal-Baqarah was revealed stood.

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood said:

I prayed two rak'ahs with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), two rak’ahs with Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) and two rak'ahs with 'Umar (رضي الله عنه).

It was narrated that Abdullah said:

We were with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) in a cave and (the soorah) "By the winds (or angels or the Messengers of Allah) sent forth one after another” (al-Mursalat 77:1] was revealed; we learned it from his lips. Then a snake came out of its hole, and we rushed to kill it but it got away from us and entered its hole. Then he said: "It was protected from your evil as you were protected from its evil.”

A similar report was narrated from ‘Abdullah and he said:

We learned it fresh from his lips.

Al-Qasim bin Mukhaimirah said:

‘Alqamah took hold of my hand and told me that ‘Abdullah bin Mas'ood took hold of his hand, and that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took hold of ‘Abdullah's hand and taught him the tashahhud in prayer. He said: “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 upon the righteous slaves of Allah.” Zuhair said: I memorised from him, in sha Allah: "I bear witness that there is no god except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger." He said: When you have finished this, or when you have done this, then you have completed your prayer; if you want to get up, then get up, and if you want to sit, then sit.

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

The Prophet (ﷺ) said concerning the people who stayed away from Jumu’ah: "I thought of instructing a man to lead the people in prayer, then going and burning down the houses of men who stay away from Jumu’ah whilst they are in them."

It was narrated that ‘Abdullah said:

I came to The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: O Messenger of Allah, Allah has caused Abu Jahl to be killed. He said: "Praise be to Allah Who has granted victory to His slave and caused His religion to prevail."

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Mas'ood said:

We were on the campaign of Badr, each three of us 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: Ride, O Messenger of Allah, and we will walk instead of you. He said: "You are not stronger than me and I am not in less need of reward than you.”

'Asim bin Bahdalah told us...

And he mentioned a similar report with the same isnad.

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

When The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was taken on the Night Journey, he was taken as far as Sidruțul-Muntaha, which is in the sixth heaven; anything that ascends from earth stops there and is taken from there, anything that comes down from above stops there and is taken from there. He said: "When that covered the lote tree which did cover it!” (an-Nain 53:16) He said. Butterflies of gold. He said: And The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was given three things: the five daily prayers, the final verses of Sooratal-Baqarah, and those of his ummah who do not associate anything with Allah were forgiven major sins that may cause one to end up in Hellfire.

It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin Maʼqil said:

My father was with ‘Abdullah bin Mas'ood and heard him say: I heard The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: "Regret is repentance.”

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Mas'ood said:

We were with the Messenger of Allah(ﷺ) and we were kept from praying Zuhr, ‘Asr, Maghrib and 'Isha. And that upset me a great deal, then I said: We are with the Messenger of Allah and (fighting) for the sake of Allah. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) instructed Bilal to give the iqamah (call immediately preceding the prayer) and he led us in praying Zuhr, then he gave the iqamah and he led us in praying ‘Asr; then he gave the iqamah and he led us in praying Maghrib, then he gave the iqamah and he led us in praying ‘Isha'. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went around us, then he said: “There is no band of people on earth who are remembering Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, except you."

It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin Maʼqil said:

It was narrated that ’Abdullah bin Maʼqil said:

My father was with ‘Abdullah bin Mas'ood and heard him say: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: "Regret is repentance.”

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

We used not to know what to say in the prayer, we would say: Peace be upon Allah, peace be upon Jibreel, peace be upon Mika’eel. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught us and said: “Verily Allah is as-Salam, so when you sit after two rak'ahs, 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" - Abu Wa'il said in his hadeeth from ‘Abdullah from the Prophet (ﷺ): “for if you say that, it will reach every righteous slave in heaven and on earth." And Abu Ishaq said in the hadeeth of ‘Abdullah from the Prophet (ﷺ): "If you say that, it will reach every angel who is close to Allah or every Prophet who was sent or every righteous slave - ‘l bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger."’

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said:

We were with the Prophet (ﷺ) and we passed by an ant colony that had been burnt. The Pruphet (ﷺ) said: “No human should punish with the punishment of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted.”

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood, who attributed it to the Prophet (ﷺ):

"Keep revising the Qur'an, for by the One in whose hand is my soul, it is more likely to flee from the hearts of men than camels from their hobbles, What a bad thing for one of them to say, I forgot such and such a verse. Rather he was caused to forget."

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood said:

Some people came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: O Messenger of Allah, our companion is sick, can we cauterise him? He remained silent for a while, then he said: "If you wish you could cauterise him or if you wish you could use hot stones."

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood said:

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: "A person may tell lies until he is recorded with Allah as a liar, or he may speak the truth until he is recorded with Allah as a speaker of truth.”

It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahman bin Yazeed said: 'Abdullah said:

We were with The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), young men who had nothing. And he said: “O young men, whoever among you can afford it, let him get married, for it is more effective in lowering the gaze and guarding one's chastity. And whoever cannot afford it should fast, for it will be a shield for him."

It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahman bin Yazeed said:

al-Ash'ath bin Qais entered upon 'Abdullah on the day of 'Ashoora' and he was eating lunch. He said: O Abu Muhammad, come and eat lunch. He said: Is it not the day of ‘Ashdora'? He said: Do you know what the day of ‘Ashoora' is? Rather the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to fast it before (the command to fast) Ramadan was revealed; when (the command to fast) Ramadan was revealed, it was given up.

It was narrated that ‘Alqamah said:

We were sitting with ‘Abdullah, and Zaid bin Hudair was with us. Khabbab entered upon us and said: O Abu 'Abdur-Rahman, do all of these people recite as you recite? He said: If you wish, you may tell some of them to recite to you. He said: Yes (I will). Then he said to me: Recite. Ibn Hudair said: Are you telling him to recite, when he is not the best reciter among us? He said: By Allah, if you wish I will tell you what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to your people and his people. Then I recited fifty verses from (Soorat) Maryam and Khabbab said: You have done well. ‘Abdullah said: There is nothing I know of Qur'an but he also has knowledge of it. Then 'Abdullah said to Khabbab: Is it not time to throw away this ring? He said: You will not see me wearing it after today. And the ring was of gold.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah - he (i.e. Shareek) narrated it to us

as a marfoo’ report the first time, then he stopped narrating it as marfoo’- said: "Even if riba increases, it will ultimately lead to less.”
