(مَنَاقِبُ حَضْرَةِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ)
(The virtues of Hazrat Abdullah ibn Mas’ud, may Allah be pleased with him)
Hadith 6197
وَعَن حذيفةَ قَالَ: إِنَّ أَشْبَهَ النَّاسِ دَلًّا وَسَمْتًا وَهَدْيًا بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَابْنُ أم عبدٍ مِنْ حِينِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ إِلَى أَنْ يرجع إِلَيْهِ لَا تَدْرِي مَا يصنع أَهله إِذا خلا. رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
Hudhaifa said: The one who most closely resembled God's messenger in deportment, manner of life and conduct was Ibn Umm `Abd from the time he came out of his house till he returned to it, but we did not know how he treated his family when he was alone with them. Bukhari transmitted it.
