Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ood

Al-Qasim bin Abdur-Rahman narrated that his father said: ’Abdullah bin Mas'ood said:

I was with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at Hunain. The people fled and left him, but eighty men of the Muhajireen and Ansar stood fast with him. We fell back about eighty steps but we did not turn our backs, and they are the ones upon whom Allah sent down tranquillity (as-sakeenah). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was on his mule going forward, but the mule veered and he tilted and was about to fall. I said to him. Rise up, may Allah lift you high. And he said: "Give me a handful of dust,” and threw it at their faces, and their eyes were filled with dust. Then he said: Where are the Muhajireen and Ansar? I said: Here they are. He said: Call them. So I called them and they came (swiftly) like meteors, with their swords in their right hands, and the mushrikeen turned and fled.

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood that

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Some people will be in Hell as long as Allah wills that they should be, then Allah will have mercy on them and will bring them out of it, and they will be in the lowest part of Paradise. Then they will bathe in a river called al-Hayawan (life) and the people of Paradise will call them al-jahannamiyyoon (the hellish ones). If one of them were to host all the people of this world, he would be able to give them seats to sit on, food and drink, and blankets, and I think he said that he would be able to arrange marriages for them. Hasan said: And that would not detract from what he has in the slightest.

It was narrated from ' Abdullah bin Mas'ood and attributed to

The Prophet (ﷺ): "Whoever tells a lie about me deliberately let him take his place in Hell.”

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood (رضي الله عنه) that

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I was shown the nations during Hajj season, and my ummah came late. Then I saw them and I liked their large numbers and their appearance, they filled the plain and the mountain. It was said to me: ‘Are you pleased, O Muhammad?’ I said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘Along with these you will have seventy thousand who will enter Paradise without being called to account. They are the ones who did not seek ruqyah and did not believe in bird omens and did not use cautery, and they put their trust in their Lord.’" ‘Ukkashah stood up and said: O Prophet of Allah, pray to Allah to make me one of them. So he prayed for him, then another man stood up and said: O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah to make me one of them. He said: "’Ukkashah beat you to it.”

It was narrated that lbn Mas’ood said:

The Prophet (ﷺ) entered the mosque (walking) between Abu Bakr and ‘Umar, and saw Ibn Mas'ood praying. He was reciting (Soorat) an-Nisa' and stopped when he completed one hundred verses, then Ibn Mas'ood started to offer supplication whilst standing in prayer. And the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Ask you will be given, ask you will be given." Then he said: “Whoever would like to recite the Qur'an fresh as it was revealed, let him recite it according to the recitation of Ibn Umm ‘Abd." The next morning, Abu Bakr came to him to tell him the good news and he said to him: What did you ask Allah for yesterday? He said: I said: O Allah, I ask You for faith that will never change, blessing that will never expire and to accompany Your Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) in the highest part of the Paradise of eternity. Then 'Umar (رضي الله عنه) came to Abdullah (to tell him the good news), but it was said to him: Abu Bakr has beaten you to it, so he said: May Allah have mercy on Abu Bakr. I never competed with him in doing good but he beat me to it.

It was narrated from `Abdullah that

The Prophet (ﷺ) came to him (walking) between Abu Bakr and ‘Umar (رضي الله عنهما) And he narrated a similar report.

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

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: "Some eloquence is magic and the most evil of people are those upon whom the Hour will come when they are still alive and those who take their graves as places of worship."

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said:

May Allah curse women who have tattoos done, women who ask for their facial hair to be plucked, women who file their teeth, and women who change the creation of Allah. Then he said: Should I not curse those whom the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) cursed? A woman from Banu Asad said: I think that your family (do that). He said to her: Go and look. So she went and looked, then she said: I did not see any of that among them, but I did not see it in the Mushaf. He said: Yes, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said it.

A similar report was narrated from ‘Alqamah from the Prophet (ﷺ).

A similar report.

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

The Prophet (ﷺ) that he said: “Trading insults with a Muslim is an evil action and fighting him is kufr.” Zubaid said: I said to Abu Wa'il twice: Did you hear it from ‘Abdullah from the Prophet (ﷺ)? He said Yes.

It was narrated from al-Harith bin Suwaid that 'Abdullah said:

I entered upon the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he was running a fever. I touched him with my hand and said: O Messenger of Allah you are running a high fever. The Messenger Allah (ﷺ) said: “Yes, I am running a fever like two of you.” I said: Then you will have two rewards. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Yes. There is no Muslim who is afflicted with sickness or anything else, but Allah will erase thereby his bad deeds just as trees shed their leaves.”

It was narrated from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin al-Aswad that his father said:

‘Alqamah and I entered upon ’Abdullah bin Masood at midday when it was very hot. When the sun passed the meridian he gave the iqamah for prayer and we stood behind him. He took hold of my hand and my companion's hand and made each of us stand on either side of him, and he stood between us. Then he said: This is what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to do if they were three. Then he led us in prayer and when he finished he said: There will be rulers who will delay the prayer from its proper time. Do not wait for them, rather (pray on time and) make your prayer with them nafl.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I am only human; I forget as you forget. So if any of you is not sure about his prayer, let him see what is most likely to be the case and then complete it on that basis and prostrate twice."

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

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

It was narrated that ‘Abdullah said:

I know the pairs (of soorahs) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to recite in one rak'ah.

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

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I will reach the Cistern ahead of you, and some men will be snatched away from me. I will say: 'O Lord, my companions!’ It will be said: ‘You do not know what they did after you were gone.’”

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

After the verse "When there comes the Help of Allah (to you, O Muhammad (ﷺ) against your enemies) and the Conquest (of Makkah)" (an-Nasr 110:1) was revealed, the Prophet (ﷺ) would often say: “Glory and praise be to You, O Allah. O Allah, forgive me, for You are the Acceptor of repentance."

It was narrated from Ibn Mas'ood that

On the night of the jinn, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) drew a line around him, and one of them would come looking like the shape of a palm tree. He said to me: “Do not move from your place." And he recited the Book of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, to them. When he (Ibn Mas'ood) saw az-Zutt (a kind of black people who are known to be tall and slim) he said: They are just like these ones. And the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Do you have any water?” I said: No. He said: "Do you have any nabeedh?" I said: Yes. And he did wudoo’ with it.

It was narrated that ‘Abdullah said:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: If I were to take a close friend from among my ummah I would have taken Abu Bakr as a close friend."

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said:

Whoever would like to meet Allah tomorrow as a Muslim, let him regularly offer these prayers where the call to prayer is given, for Allah has prescribed the ways of guidance to His Prophet (ﷺ) and they (the prayers) are among the ways of guidance. I do not think there is anyone among you who does not have a prayer place in his house, but if you pray in your houses and forsake your mosques you will have forsaken the Sunnah of your Prophet (ﷺ) and if you forsake the Sunnah of your Prophet you will go astray.
