He saw Ibn az-Zubair ‘Abdullah, and he led them in prayer, making a motion with his hands when he stood up, when he bowed, and when he prostrated and, when he got up again, he made a motion with his hands. He said: I went to Ibn 'Abbas and said to him: I have seen Ibn az-Zubair praying in a manner that I have never seen anyone pray before. And I described these motions to him. He said: If you want to see the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), watch the prayer of Ibn az-Zubair.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: Quraish said to the Jews:

Give us something that we can ask this man about. They said: Ask him about ar-rooh. Then the verse “And they ask you (O Muhammad (ﷺ)) concerning the Rooh (the spirit). Say: “The Rooh (the spirit) is one of the things, the knowledge of which is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you (mankind) have been given only a little” [al-Isra' 17:85] was revealed. They [the Jews] said: We have been given a great deal of knowledge. We were given the Torah, and whoever is given the Torah has been given a great deal of good. Then Allah revealed the words: “Say (O Muhammad (ﷺ) to mankind): “If the sea were ink for (writing) the words of my Lord, surely, the sea would be exhausted" [al-Kahf 18:109].

"O Allah, You are the Companion on the journey and the Successor (the One Who guards them in a person's absence) over the family. O Allah, I seek refuge with You from burdensome travelling companions and an ill-fated outcome upon returning. O Allah, make the distance short for us and make the journey easy for us.” And when he wanted to return, he said: "Returning, repenting, worshipping and praising our Lord."...

"Do not go out to meet incoming traders, do not leave the milk of a she-camel or sheep to accumulate [in its udder, so as to deceive a prospective buyer], do not try to sell by artificial means.”

It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that

The Prophet (ﷺ) confirmed some things that Umayyah said in his poetry. He [Umayyah] said: A man and a bull beneath his right foot, and an eagle and a lion cub under the other foot. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “He is right." He [Umayyah] said: The sun shines red at the end of every day and its colour becomes rosy in the morning. It comes reluctantly and rises very slowly by being compelled and whipped. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “He is right."

If Zaid was killed, Ja'far [was to assume command]. If Ja'far was killed, Ibn Rawahah [was to assume command]. Ibn Rawahah stayed behind and prayed Jumu'ah with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) who saw him and said, “What kept you behind?” He said: I wanted to pray Jumu’ah with you. He said: "To go out in the morning (to fight, for the sake of Allah) and come back in the evening is better than this world and everything in it.”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“He is not one of us who has intercourse with a pregnant woman [i.e., a female prisoner of war who is pregnant]."

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: On the day of al-Khandaq, a mushrik man was killed and they asked the Prophet (ﷺ) to let them bury him, and he said:

"No, not at all [I cannot please you by doing that]." They said: We will give you something in return for that. He said: "That is even worse."

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

Abu Jahl passed by and said: Didn't I tell you to stop? The Prophet (ﷺ) rebuffed him and Abu Jahl said to him: Why are you rebuffing me, O Muhammad? By Allah, you know there is no man with more helpers to call upon than me. Jibreel (عليه السلام) said: "Then let him call upon his council (of helpers)" [al-'Alaq 96:17].

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

On the night when the Prophet (ﷺ) was taken on the Night Journey (Isra'), he entered Paradise and heard a sound in some part of it. He said: “O Jibreel, what is this?” He said: This is Bilal, the mu'adhdhin. When he came to the people, the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Bilal has attained success; I saw such and such for him.” Then he was met by Moosa (عليه السلام), who welcomed him and said: Welcome to the unlettered Prophet. He (the Prophet (ﷺ)) said: "He was a tall, dark man with straight hair down to his ears or above them.” And he said: “Who is this, O Jibreel?" He said: This is Moosa (عليه السلام). Then he went further and was met by ‘Eesa, who welcomed him. He said: "Who is this, O Jibreel?" He said: This is "Eesa. Then he went on and was met by a respectable, dignified old man, who welcomed him and greeted him with salam, and all of them greeted him with salam. He said: “Who is this, O Jibreel?” He said: This is your father Ibraheem. Then he looked into Hell and saw people consuming corpses. He said: “Who are these people, O Jibreel?" He said: These are the ones who eat people's flesh (i.e., gossip). And he saw a man who looked red and blue, of stocky build and dishevelled. He said: "Who is this, O Jibreel?" He said: This is the one who hamstrung the she-camel. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) entered al-Masjid al-Aqsa, he stood up to pray, then he turned around and saw all the Prophets praying with him. When he finished praying, two vessels were brought to him, one from the right and the other from the left. In one of them there was milk and in the other there was honey. He took the milk and drank some of it, and the one who brought the vessel said: You have acted in accordance with sound human nature (done the right thing).
