Musnad Abu Ishaq Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas

It was narrated from Muhammad bin Sa'd bin Malik, that his father said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "It is not permissible for a Muslim to forsake his brother for more than three days."

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

I swore an oath by al-Lat and al-"Uzza, and my companions said: You have said something unseemly. So I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: I am newly Muslim, and I swore an oath by al-Lat and al-"Uzza. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Say La ilaha illallah wahdahu (there is no god but Allah alone) three times, and spit dryly to your left three times, and seek refuge with Him, and do not do it again."

It was narrated from Mus"ab bin Sa"d, from his father, that

a platter of thareed was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he ate, and there was some left over. He said: "A man will come from this direction who is one of the people of Paradise, and he will eat these leftovers." Sa"d said: I had left my brother "Umair bin Abi Waqqas getting ready to come to the Prophet (ﷺ) and I hoped that he would be the one. Then "Abdullah bin Salam came and ate it.

‘Abdus-Samad told us: Aban told us: "Asim told us...

and he mentioned a similar report, except that he said: I passed by "Uwaimir bin Malik.

Usamah-meaning bin Zaid - told us. Abu "Abdullah al-Qarraz told us that he heard Sa"d bin Malik and Abu Hurairah say:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "O Allah, bless the people of Madinah in their city, bless them in their sa"s, bless them in their mudds [weights and measures].. O Allah, Ibraheem was Your slave and Your close friend (khaleel) and I am Your slave and Messenger. Ibraheem asked you for the people of Makkah and I am asking You for the people of Madinah, as Ibraheem asked You for the people of Makkah, and as much again. Madinah is surrounded by angels; on every route into the city there are two angels guarding it; neither the plague nor the Dajjal wili enter it. Whoever wishes ill to it, Allah will cause him to melt as salt dissolves in water,

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

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out to us, striking one hand against the other and saying: "The month is like this and like this,” then he held one finger down the third time.

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

the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "The month is like this and likę this,” ten and ten, and nine once,

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

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The month is like this and like this and like this"- meaning twenty-nine,

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

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The Hour will not begin until some people emerge who will eat with their tongues (words) as cattle eat with their tongues."

It was narrated from Abu Bakr - i.e., bin Hafs - and he narrated a story. Sa"d said.

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: “What a good death if a man dies defending his right.”

It was narrated from ’Amir bin Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas, that his father Sa"d said:

I said: O Messenger of Allah, can I bequeath all my wealth (to charity)? He said: "No." I said: Two thirds of it? He said: "No.” I said: Half of it? He said: “No” I said: One third? He said: "One third, and one third is a lot. If one of you leaves his family in a good state, that is better for him than leaving them dependent on what people give them."

It was narrated from Hamzah bin ‘Abdullah, from his father, that Sa’d said:

When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) set out on the campaign to Tabook, he left ‘Ali in charge. [’Ali] said to him: Are you leaving me behind? He said: "Does it not please you to be to me as Haroon was to Moosa? Except that there is no Prophet (ﷺ) after me."

Isma"eel bin Muhammad narrated from ‘Amir bin Sa"d that Sa"d said when he was sick:

If I die, make a lahd (niche) for me and do what was done for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).

It was narrated that Sa’d said:

Make a lahd (niche) for me and block it up with bricks as was done for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).

It was narrated that Sa’d bin Malik said:

We did tawaf with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Some of us did seven circuits, some of us did eight and some others did more than that, and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "It does not matter."

It was narrated that a son of Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas said: I heard my father say:

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: "Faith began as something strange and will go back to being as it began, so glad tidings to the strangers when the people become corrupt. By the One Whose hand is the soul of Abul-Qasim, faith will retreat between these two mosques as a snake retreats into its hole.”

It was narrated from Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas that he heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say:

One prayer in this mosque of mine is better than a thousand prayers elsewhere, except al-Masjid al-Haram."

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

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: I declare sacred what is between the two lava fields of Madinah as Ibraheem declared his sanctuary sacred. Its leaves are not to be cut down and its game is not to be killed. Nobody leaves it for lack of interest in it, but Allah will replace him with someone better than him. Madinah is better for them if they but knew. No one wishes ill to them (people of Madinah) but Allah will cause him to melt as lead melts in the fire and as salt dissolves in water.”

It was narrated from Mus"ab bin Sa"d, that his father said:

I said to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Which people are most severely tested? He said: “The Prophet (ﷺ)s, then the next best and the next best. A man will be tested according to his level of religious commitment: if his religious commitment is solid, his test will be greater and if there is some weakness in his religious commitment he will be tested in accordance with his level of religious commitment. Tests will continue to befall a slave [of Allah] until he walks upon the face of the earth with not a single sin on him."

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

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say to ["Ali], when he left him in charge [of Madinah] during one of his campaigns. ‘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 there will be no Prophet (ﷺ) after me?" And I heard him say on the day of Khaibar: "I shall certainly give the banner to a man who loves Allah and His Messenger, and Allah and His Messenger love him." We all hoped for it, but he said: "Call "Ali for me.” He was brought, and he had a sore eye. [The Prophet (ﷺ) ] spat in his eye and gave the banner to him, and Allah granted victory at his hands. And when this verse was revealed: "let us call our sons and your sons" (Al-"Imran 3:61], the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) called "Ali, Fatimah, Hasan and Husain, (رضي الله عنه) and said: "O Allah, these are my family.”

It was narrated from Busr bin Sa"eed that Sa"d bin Abi Waqqas said,

at the time of the turmoil surrounding "Uthman bin "Affan: "There will be turmoil in which the one who is sitting will be better than the one who is standing, the one who is standing will be better than the one who is walking, and the one who is walking will be better than the one who is running. He said: How about if he enters upon me in my house and stretches out his hand wanting to kill me? He said: "Be like the son of Adam.”

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

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to al-"Abbas; “This is al-"Abbas bin ‘Abdul-Muttalib, the most generous of Quraish and the one who most upholds ties of kinship."

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

A Bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: O Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah, teach me some words to say. He said: “Say: "There is no God but Allah alone, with no partner or associate; Allah is most great, much praise be to Allah, glory be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds, there is no power and no strength except with Allah, the Almighty, Most Wise.” He said: This is for my Lord; what is there for me? He said: "Say: ‘O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, guide me and grant me provision.”

It was narrated from Mus"ab bin Sa"d: My father told me:

We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he said: "Will one of you be incapable of earning one thousand hasanahs every day?" One of the people sitting with him asked him: O Prophet (ﷺ) of Allah, how could one of us earn one thousand hasanahs? He said: “He says tasbeeh one hundred times, and it will be recorded as one thousand hasanahs[good deeds] or will erase one thousand sayyi"ahs (bad deeds)."

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

We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he said: "Will one of you be incapable of earning one thousand hasanahs every day?" One of the people sitting with him asked him. O Messenger of Allah, how could one of us earn one thousand hasanahs every day? He said: "He says tasbeeh one hundred times, and it will be recorded as one thousand hasanahs (good deeds] or will erase one thousand sayyi"ahs (bad deeds).”
