Musnad of 'Abdullah bin al-'Abbas bin 'Abdul-Muttalib from the Prophet

ENGLISH

It was narrated from Habeeb bin Shihab: My father told me: I heard Ibn "Abbas say:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, on the day he addressed the people in Tabook: “There is no one among the people who is better than a man who holds on to his horse"s head and wages jihad for the sake of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. And avoid the evil that people do. And there is no one who is better than one who is out in the desert and enjoying the blessings of Allah, honouring his guest and giving him his due."
