قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : لَأَعْلَمَنَّ مَا بَقَاءُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِينَا ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، لَوِ اتَّخَذْتَ شَيْئًا تَجْلِسُ عَلَيْهِ يَدْفَعُ عَنْكَ الْغُبَارَ وَيَرُدُّ عَنْكَ الْخَصْمَ ، فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : وَاللهِ ، لَأَدَعَنَّهُمْ يُنَازِعُونِي رِدَائِي ، وَيَطَؤُونَ عَقِبِي ، وَيَغْشَانِي غُبَارُهُمْ ، حَتَّى يَكُونَ اللهُ تَعَالَى هُوَ الَّذِي يُرِيحُنِي مِنْهُمْ ، قَالَ : فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّ بَقَاءَهُ فِينَا قَلِيلٌ ، قَالَ : فَلَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ عُمَرُ : وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَعِيشَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى يَقْطَعَ أَيْدِيَ رِجَالٍ وَأَلْسِنَتَهُمْ مِنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ يَقُولُونَ : قَدْ مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، هَلْ عِنْدَ أَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ عَهْدٌ أَوْ عَقْدٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ فَقَالُوا : لَا ، قَالَ : فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَمُتْ حَتَّى قَطَعَ الْحِبَالَ وَوَصَلَ ، وَحَارَبَ وَسَالَمَ ، وَنَكَحَ النِّسَاءَ وَطَلَّقَ ، وَتَرَكَكُمْ عَلَى مَحَجَّةٍ بَيِّنَةٍ ، وَطَرِيقٍ نَاهِجَةٍ ، وَلَئِنْ كَانَ كَمَا قَالَ عُمَرُ لَمْ يَعْجِزِ اللهُ تَعَالَى أَنْ يَحْثُوَ عَنْهُ فَيُخْرِجَهُ لَنَا ، فَخَلِّ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُ فَلْنَدْفِنْهُ فَإِنَّهُ يَأْسُنُ كَمَا يَأْسُنُ النَّاسُ .
قُلْتُ : رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ نَحْوَهُ .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I will certainly find out how much longer the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) will remain among us. So he said: "O Messenger of Allah! Would that you had something made (to sit on) on which you could sit, which would protect you from the dust and keep the crowding and disputing of the people away from you." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Allah, I will leave them in this very state, pulling at my cloak with me, treading on my heels, with their dust falling on me, until Allah Almighty Himself grants me relief from them." Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Then I understood that the time of his (peace and blessings be upon him) remaining among us had become very short. Then, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said (in the intensity of his emotion): "By Allah, I hope that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) will live on until he cuts off the hands and tongues of those hypocrites who say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has died." At this Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O people! Does any of you have any covenant or instruction from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about this?" The people said: No. He said: "Indeed, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not depart from this world until he had cut all ties (of disbelief) and joined the bonds (of truth). He (peace and blessings be upon him) fought wars and made peace, married women and divorced, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) left you upon a very clear, bright highway and an open path. And if the situation is as Umar says, Allah Almighty is fully able to remove the earth from over him (peace and blessings be upon him) and bring him out to us again. So stand aside from between us and him so that we may bury him, for the same human effects (after death) may appear on his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed body as appear on other human beings."
I (Ibn Hajar) say: Al-Tabarani narrated something similar from the hadith of Ibn Uyaynah, from Ayyub, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, from Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him).

وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْمُحَبَّرِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَيْسَرَةُ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمْ ، قَالَا : خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خُطْبَةً قَبْلَ وَفَاتِهِ ، وَهِيَ آخِرُ خُطْبَةٍ خَطَبَهَا بِالْمَدِينَةِ ، حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِاللهِ تَعَالَى ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ ، وَفِيهِ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، إِنَّهُ قَدْ كَبِرَتْ سِنِّي ، وَدَقَّ عَظْمِي ، وَأُنْهِكَ جِسْمِي ، وَنُعِيَتْ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي ، وَاقْتَرَبَ أَجِلِي ، وَاشْتَقْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي ، أَلَا وَإِنَّ هَذَا آخِرُ الْعَهْدِ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ ، فَمَا دُمْتُ حَيًّا فَقَدْ تَرَوْنِي ، فَإِذَا أَنَا مُتُّ فَاللهُ خَلِيفَتِي عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ ، وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that they both said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed us with a sermon before his death, and this was the last sermon he (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered in Madinah before he (peace and blessings be upon him) went to meet Allah Almighty. Then the narrator mentioned a long hadith in which (these words also) occur, that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people! Indeed I have now grown old, my bones have become weak, my body has become frail and exhausted, I have been informed of my death, the time for the completion of my life's term has drawn near, and I long to meet my Lord. Listen! This is the last covenant (of worldly meeting) between me and you. As long as I am alive, you see me, but when I die, Allah Almighty is my successor (guardian and protector) over every Muslim." And (at the end he said): "Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Fadl bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: I went to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) during his illness, and a red band was tied around his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed head, or (the narrator is unsure) perhaps it was a yellow band. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O my cousin! Take this band and tie my head tightly with it." I tied his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed head with it, then he (peace and blessings be upon him) leaned on me until we entered the mosque. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (addressing the people): "O people! I am only a human being like you, and it may well be that the time of my departure from among you has drawn near. So if I have harmed anyone's honour, or done any harm to anyone's body, hair or wealth, then here is the honour, hair, body and wealth of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him); let that person stand up and take his retribution (from me). And let none of you say: I fear enmity and rancour from Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Listen! Neither of these is part of my nature, nor part of my character." The narrator said: Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) went back.
The next day I went to him (peace and blessings be upon him) again, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O my cousin! I do not think that my standing up (and announcing) yesterday was sufficient for me. Take this band and tie my head tightly with it." Al-Fadl said: I tied his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed head with it, then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) leaned on me until he came into the mosque and said what he had said the day before. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) further said: "The dearest of you to us is the one who takes his retribution (if he has a right)." The narrator said: At this a man stood up and said: O Messenger of Allah! Do you remember the day a beggar came to you and asked you, and you (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Who has something to lend us?" and I lent you three dirhams? So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Fadl! Give him (those dirhams)." So I gave them to him. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever is overcome by some (moral or physical weakness), let him tell us so that we may supplicate for him." So a man stood up and said: O Messenger of Allah! I am a cowardly man and in the habit of sleeping a great deal. Sayyiduna al-Fadl said: (By the blessing of his (peace and blessings be upon him) supplication) I later saw that this man had become the bravest of us all and the one who slept the least.
The narrator said: Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to the house of Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) and said to the women there the same as he had said to the men.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon after me, people will offer one another condolences on my death." (At that time) the people would ask (in surprise): "What is this?" Then, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, people would meet one another and offer one another condolences and consolation over the great grief of the passing of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).

Imam al-Tayalisi recorded this hadith in his Musnad. The narrator Salih bin Abi al-Akhdar in its chain is da'if (weak) because of his poor memory.

وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ : حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ أَبِي يَذْكُرُهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : إِنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ نَفَرٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ، فَقَالَ : أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكُمْ عَنْ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قَالُوا : بَلَى ، قَالَ : لَمَّا كَانَ قَبْلَ وَفَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِثَلَاثٍ أَهْبَطَ اللهُ إِلَيْهِ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَحْمَدُ ، إِنَّ اللهَ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكَ إِكْرَامًا لَكَ وَتَفَضُّلًا لَكَ وَخَاصَّةً لَكَ ، أَسْأَلُكَ عَمَّا هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنْكَ ، يَقُولُ : كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ ؟ قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَجِدُنِي يَا جِبْرِيلُ مَكْرُوبًا .
ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ الْيَوْمَ الثَّانِيَ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءً ، ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ الْيَوْمَ الثَّالِثَ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءً ، وَزَادَ : وَأَجِدُنِي يَا جِبْرِيلُ مَغْمُومًا ، قَالَ : وَهَبَطَ مَعَ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ مَلَكٌ فِي الْهَوَاءِ يُقَالُ لَهُ : إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، عَلَى سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ : يَا أَحْمَدُ ، هَذَا مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَيْكَ ، وَلَمْ يَسْتَأْذِنْ عَلَى آدَمِيٍّ قَبْلَكَ ، وَلَا يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى آدَمِيٍّ بَعْدَكَ ، فَقَالَ : ائْذَنْ لَهُ ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ : يَا أَحْمَدُ ، إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكَ ، وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُطِيعَكَ ؛ إِنْ أَمَرْتَنِي بِقَبْضِ نَفْسِكَ قَبَضْتُهَا ، وَإِنْ كَرِهْتَ تَرَكْتُهَا ، فَقَالَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ : إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى قَدِ اشْتَاقَ إِلَى لِقَائِكَ ، قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : يَا مَلَكَ الْمَوْتِ ، امْضِ لِمَا أُمِرْتَ لَهُ ، فَقَالَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ : يَا أَحْمَدُ ، عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ هَذَا آخِرُ وَطْئِي الْأَرْضَ ، إِنَّمَا كُنْتَ حَاجَتِي مِنَ الدُّنْيَا ، فَلَمَّا قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَجَاءَتِ التَّعْزِيَةُ جَاءَ آتٍ يَسْمَعُونَ حِسَّهُ وَلَا يَرَوْنَ شَخْصَهُ ، فَقَالَ : السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ ، فِي اللهِ عَزَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ مُصِيبَةٍ ، وَخَلَفٌ مِنْ كُلِّ هَالِكٍ ، وَدَرَكٌ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا فَاتَ ، فَبِاللهِ فَثِقُوا ، وَإِيَّاهُ فَارْجُوا ، فَإِنَّ الْمَحْرُومَ مَنْ حُرِمَ الثَّوَابَ ، وَإِنَّ الْمُصَابَ مَنْ حُرِمَ الثَّوَابَ ، وَالسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ ، فَقَالَ : هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَنْ هَذَا ؟ هَذَا الْخَضِرُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that a group of Quraysh came to him, and he said: "Shall I not tell you something about Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him)?" They said: Yes, certainly! He related: "Three days before the death of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), Allah Almighty sent Jibril (peace be upon him) down to him, and he said: O Ahmad! Allah Almighty has sent me to you to honour you, to show you favour and to grant you a special distinction. I ask you about that which He knows better than you; He asks: How do you find yourself? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'O Jibril, I find myself in distress.' Then Jibril (peace be upon him) came on the second day and said the same, then he came on the third day and repeated the same thing, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) added: 'And O Jibril, I find myself grieved and heavy-hearted.' The narrator said: On this occasion an angel called Isma'il descended through the air along with Jibril (peace be upon him); he was in charge of seventy thousand angels. Jibril (peace be upon him) said: O Ahmad! This is the Angel of Death, asking your permission to enter. He has never asked permission of any human being before you, nor will he ever ask permission of any human being after you. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Give him permission.' So Jibril (peace be upon him) gave him permission. The Angel of Death said: O Ahmad! Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has sent me to you and has commanded me to obey you; if you command me to take your soul, I will take it, and if you dislike it, I will leave it. Then Jibril (peace be upon him) said: Indeed Allah Almighty longs to meet you. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'O Angel of Death! Carry out what you have been commanded.' At this Jibril (peace be upon him) said: O Ahmad! Peace be upon you. This is my last step upon the earth; you alone were my purpose in the world. Then, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away and people came to offer condolences, they heard the voice of someone coming whose presence could be sensed but whose person could not be seen. He said: 'Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah. Truly in Allah there is consolation for every calamity, a replacement for everyone who perishes, and recompense for everything that is lost. So put your trust in Allah alone and place your hope in Him, for the truly deprived one is he who is deprived of the reward, and the truly afflicted one is he who is deprived of the reward. And peace be upon you.'" Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: "Do you know who this was? This was al-Khidr (peace be upon him)."
Imam al-Shafi'i narrated it among the reports that Imam al-Tahawi heard from him, through Imam al-Muzani from Imam al-Shafi'i, from al-Qasim bin Abdullah bin Umar bin Hafs, from Ja'far bin Muhammad, from his father, that some men of Quraysh came to his father Ali bin al-Husayn, and he said: "Shall I not tell you about the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" They said: Yes. Then he mentioned the whole hadith, except that in it are the words: "The name of this angel is Isma'il, who is in charge of a hundred thousand angels, and each of these angels is in charge of a further hundred thousand angels." In it there is also that when the Angel of Death said "I will leave it," he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "O Angel of Death! Will you really do that?" He said: Yes, this is what I have been commanded, and I have also been commanded to obey you. The narrator said: Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) looked at Jibril (peace be upon him), and Jibril (peace be upon him) said: O Muhammad! Then he mentioned something similar. And in this narration, after the word "reward," it says that Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Do you know who this is? This is al-Khidr (peace be upon him)."

وَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ فِي زِيَادَاتِ الزُّهْدِ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ خَبَّابٍ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا ، قَالَ : لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللهِ وَالْفَتْحُ حَتَّى خَتَمَ السُّورَةَ ، نُعِيَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَفْسُهُ حِينَ أُنْزِلَتْ ، فَأَخَذَ فِي أَشَدِّ مَا كَانَ قَطُّ اجْتِهَادًا فِي أَمْرِ الْآخِرَةِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: "When the blessed surah 'When the help of Allah and the victory come' [Surah al-Nasr: 1] was revealed in full, at the very time of its revelation the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was informed of his (peace and blessings be upon him) approaching death. From then on, he (peace and blessings be upon him) became so intense in preparing for the affairs of the Hereafter and striving for it that he (peace and blessings be upon him) had never before been seen making such unparalleled and utmost effort."
Imam Abdullah bin Ahmad bin Hanbal narrated it in his additions to Kitab al-Zuhd.
