Musnad Abu Ishaq Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas

It was narrated from "Amir bin Sa"d, that his father Sa"d bin Malik said:

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to say salam to his right and to his left (at the end of the prayer, turning his head) so much that the whiteness of his cheeks could be seen.

It was narrated from “Amir bin Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas, from his father Sa"d, that

the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says when he hears the mu"adhdhin; ‘And I bear witness that there is no God but Allah alone, with no partner or associate, and that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger; I am content with Allah as my Lord, Muhammad as my Messenger and Islam as my religion, his sins will be forgiven him.

Qais told us: I heard Sa"d bin Malik say:

I was the first of the Arabs to shoot an arrow for the sake of Allah. There was a time when we would go out on campaign with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and we would have no food except the leaves of al-hublah and as-samur (desert trees), and one of us would produce stools like a sheep, so dry that nothing would stick to it. And now Banu Asad are teaching me about my religion, in which case I must have been doomed and my efforts wasted.

It was narrated that Mus"ab bin Sa"d said: Four verses were revealed concerning my father, My father said:

I acquired a sword (as booty) and I said: O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), grant it to me (in addition to my share of the booty). He said: “Put it down.” I said: O Messenger of Allah, shall I be treated like one who is of no use (in war)? He said: “Put it back where you got it from.” Then this verse was revealed: "They ask you (O Muhammad) about the spoils of war. Say: The spoils are for Allah and the Messenger" (al Anfal 8:1) - it is like that in the recitation of Ibn Mas"ood: "Say: The spoils". My mother said to me: Didn"t Allah command you to uphold ties of kinship and honour your parents? By Allah, I shall not eat any food or drink anything until you disbelieve in Muhammad, And she did not eat until they opened her mouth with a stick and poured water into it - Shu"bah said: And I think he said: and food - then this verse was revealed: "And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents. His mother bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, he recited until reached what you used to do" [Luqman 31:14, 15). The Prophet (ﷺ) entered upon me when I was sick. I said: O Messenger of Allah, should I bequeath all my wealth (to charity)? He told me not to do that. I said: Half? He said: “No." I said: One third? And he remained silent, so the people followed that, A man of the Ansar made some food and they ate and drank and got drunk. That was before it was prohibited. We gathered at his place and started boasting to one another. The Ansar said: The Ansar are better. The Muhajireen said: The Muhajireen are better. A man threw the jawbone of a camel at him and cut his nose, and Sa"d"s nose was left with a mark. Then this verse was revealed: "O you who believe! Intoxicants (all kinds of alcoholic drinks), and gambling, up to So, will you not then abstain?" (al-Ma"idah 590,91].

Ghunaim narrated: I asked Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas about tamattu ," [in Hajj.

He said: We did that when this one was still a disbeliever living in Makkah - referring to Mu"awiyah.

It was narrated from Muhammad bin Sa"d that his father said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "If the belly of one of you were to be filled with pus, that would be better than filling [his mind] with poetry.”

It was narrated that Mus"ab bin Sa"d said:

I prayed with Sa"d and I did this with my hands - Yahya described putting the two hands together between the knees. He struck my hand and said: We used to do that, then we were instructed to lift our hands to the knees.

It was narrated that Sa’d said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Whoever eats seven ajwah dates in the morning, no poison or witchcraft will harm him that day."

It was narrated from “Amir bin Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas, from Sa"d. He quoted a similar hadeeth, "Abdullah said: And my father said:

Abu Badr told us from Hashim from ‘Amir bin Sa"d.

‘Amir bin Sa"d narrated that his father said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I declare sacred what is between the two lava field of Madinah, (and I forbid) cutting of its thorny shrubs or killing of its game." And he said: "Madinah is better for them, if only they knew, No one leaves it out of dislike for it but Allah will replace him with someone better than him, and no one bears its hardships and difficulties with patience, but I will intercede for him, or be a witness for him, on the Day of Resurrection."

"Amir bin Sa"d narrated from his father that

the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came one day from al-"Aliyah, and when he passed by the mosque of Banu Mu"awiyah, he went in and prayed two rak"ahs, and we prayed with him. Then he called upon his Lord for a long time, then he turned to us and said: "I asked my Lord for three things, and He granted me two and withheld from me one. I asked Him not to let my ummah be destroyed by famine, and He granted me that, I asked Him not to let my ummah be destroyed by drowning and He granted me that: and I asked Him not to let their enmity be amongst themselves, but He withheld that from me.”

It was narrated from "Umar bin Sa"d that his father said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "I am amazed at [the situation of] the believer: if something good befalls him, he praises his Lord and gives thanks, and if calamity strikes him, he seeks reward with his Lord and bears it with patience. The believer will be rewarded for everything, even the morsel he lifts to his mouth."

It was narrated that Mus"ab bin Sa"d said:

When I bowed, I would put my hands between my knees. My father Sa"d bin Malik saw me, he told me not do that, and said: We used to do that and were told not to do it.

It was narrated that Sa’d bin Malik, Khuzaimah bin Thabit and Usamah bin Zaid said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “This plague is a punishment or the remainder of a punishment with which people who came before you were punished. If it occurs in a land where you are, do not leave it, fleeing from it. And if you hear that it is in some land, do not enter it."

It was narrated from Dawood bin ‘Amir bin Sa"d bin Malik, from his father, that his grandfather said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "I shall certainly describe the Dajjal in a way in which no one before me described him. He is one eyed and Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, is not one eyed.”

It was narrated from ‘Amir bin Sa"d bin Malik, from his father,

from the Prophet (ﷺ) that some people came to him and asked him (for help), and he gave to them except one man among them. Sa’d said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, you gave to them and you left out So and so; by Allah I think he is a believer. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Or a Muslim." Sa"d repeated that three times, saying that he was a believer, and the Prophet (ﷺ) replied: “Or a Muslim” then the Prophet (ﷺ) said, the third time: “By Allah, I give something to a man although someone else is dearer to me than him, for fear that Allah may throw him on his face in Hell."

Abu Nu"aim said.

I met Sufyan in Makkah, and the first one he asked me about was when he said: How is Shuja" (the brave one}? - meaning Abu Badr.

It was narrated from Muhammad bin Sa"d that his father said:

"Umar bin al-Khattab entered upon the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when some women of Quraish were with him, asking too much of him and raising their voices. When they heard the voice of "Umar, they stopped talking and fell silent, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) smiled.ʻUmar said: O enemies of your souls, do you fear me and you do not fear the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)? They said: You are harsher and tougher than the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "O‘ Umar, the Shaitan never meets you on a road but he takes a different road."

It was narrated that Sa’d bin Malik said:

We used to rent out farmland at the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) in return for what grew by the streams and what was irrigated with water from them, but the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade us to do that and permitted us to lease it for gold or silver.

It was narrated that Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) left "Ali bin Abi Talib in charge [of Madinah] during the campaign to Tabook, ‘Ali said: O Messenger of Allah, are you leaving me behind with the women and children? He said: “Does it not please you to be to me as Haroon was to Moosa? Except that there will be no Prophet (ﷺ) after me.“

Qais bin Abayah al-Qaisi narrated from a freed slave of Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas, from a son of Sa"d, that

he was praying and saying in his supplication: O Allah, I ask You for Paradise and I ask You for its delights and blessings and so on, and I seek refuge in You from the Fire and ils chains and fetters, and so on. Sa"d kept quiet, then when he had finished praying, Sa"d said to him: You have sought refuge from a great deal of evil and you have asked for a great deal of good-or he said: [Your supplication] was long winded; Shu"bah [one of the narrators was not certain. - The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “There will be people who will overstep the mark in du"a"." And he recited this verse: "Call on your Lord with humility and in private: for Allah loves not those who trespass beyond bounds” [al-A"raf 7:55]. - Shu"bah (one of the narrators] said: I do not know whether the words “Call on your Lord with humility and in private” were spoken by Sa"d or by the Prophet (ﷺ)- And Sa"d said to him: Say: O Allah, I ask You for Paradise and the words and deeds that will bring me close to it, and I seek refuge in You from the Fire and the words and deeds that will bring me close to it,

It was narrated from Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas that

he used to enjoin reciting these five and he narrated them from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): “O Allah, I seek refuge with You from miserliness, I seek refuge with You from cowardice, I Seek refuge with You from being sent back to senility (cf. 16:70), I seek refuge with You from the trials of this world, and I seek refuge with You from the punishment of the grave."
