Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ood

It was narrated from Zirr bin Hubaish from Ibn Mas'ood that

He was cutting siwak from an arak tree; he had skinny legs and the wind was pushing him. The people laughed at him and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “What are you laughing at?” They said: O Prophet of Allah, at the thinness of his legs. He said. "By the One in Whose hand is my soul, they weigh more heavily in the Balance than Uhud."

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught me Soorat al-Ahqaf, and he taught it to another man, and he differed from me in his recitation of one verse. I said to him: Who taught it to you? He said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). So he and I went, with a group of people, and I said: O Messenger of Allah, did you not teach me such and such a verse? He said: "Yes indeęd.” I said: This man claims that you taught it to him in such and such a way. The face of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) changed, and the man who was with him said: Let each man among you recite it as he heard it, for those who came before you were only destroyed because of differences. By Allah I do not know whether the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) told him to say that or he said it by himself.

A similar report was narrated from ‘Abdullah from, the Prophet (ﷺ). He said:

He got angry and looked upset, and he said: "Those who came before you were only destroyed because of differences.”

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood that

A man among Ahlus-Suffah died, and they found two dinars in his cloak. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Two brands of fire.”

lt was narrated from Ibn Mas’ood that

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) addressed the women and said to them: "There is no woman among you for whom three of her children die but Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, will admit her to Paradise.” The most dignified of the women said: O Messenger of Allah, will the one for whom two of her children die enter Paradise? He said: “The one for whom two of her children die will enter Paradise too."

It was narrated that Abul Ahwas al-Jushami said:

Whilst Ibn Mas'ood was delivering a khutbah one day, a snake appeared on the wall. He interrupted his speech, then he struck it with his stick until he killed it. Then he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: “Whoever kills a snake, it is as if he killed a mushrik man whose blood it is permissible to shed."

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood said:

We asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about monkeys and pigs: were they offspring of the Jews? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, never cursed a people - Rawh said: and transformed them - then they had offspring until He destroyed them. Rather these (i.e., monkeys and pigs) are a creation that existed before. When Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, got angry with the Jews, He transformed them and made them like them.”

It was narrated that Ibn Mas'ood said:

I said: O Messenger of Allah, which deed is most beloved to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted? He said: “Offering prayer on time.” I said: Then what? He said: “Honouring one's parents." I said: Then what? He said: “Then jihad for the sake of Allah.” And if I had asked for more. he would have given me more.

It was narrated that ‘Abdullah said:

I remember the pairs (of soorahs) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to put together (in one rakah), eighteen soorahs from al-Mufassal and two soorahs from the family of Ha-Meem.

It was narrated that "Abdullah bin Mas'uod said:

We talked a great deal in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) one night… And he mentioned the hadeeth.

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.
