Abd al-Rahman al-Yahsubi from Wail bin Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him)

Abd al-Rahman al-Yahsubi (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sayyiduna Wa'il bin Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him); he said: I said: I will certainly watch the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He would say the takbir when going down and when rising, and he would raise his hands, and he would give the salam to his right and to his left.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Wa'il bin Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he prayed with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He would say the takbir when going down and when rising, and he would raise his hands at each takbir, and he would give the salam to the right and to the left. Shu'bah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Aban bin Taghlib narrated to me in this hadith (these words as well): "until the whiteness of his face became visible." I mentioned this to Amr bin Murrah, and he said: Or something like that.

Abd al-Rahman al-Yahsubi (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sayyiduna Wa'il bin Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him); he said: I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) giving the salam to the right and to the left until the whiteness of his cheek could be seen.

Abd al-A'la (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I prayed behind Abd al-Rahman al-Yahsubi (may Allah have mercy on him), and he gave the salam to the right saying "As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullah," and to the left in the same way. I asked him: Where did you take this from? He said: I prayed behind Sayyiduna Wa'il bin Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he did the same, until I saw the whiteness of both his cheeks.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Wa'il bin Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), when he recited "Not of those who have earned anger, nor of those who go astray" [Surah al-Fatihah: 7], say: "My Lord, forgive me. Amin."

Sayyiduna Wa'il bin Hujr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was present with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when the killer was brought, dragging his rope. the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the guardian of the slain man: "Will you pardon him?" He said: No. He said: "Then will you take (the blood money)?" He said: No. He said: "Then will you kill him?" He said: Yes. He repeated this to him three times. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "If you pardon him, he will bear the burden of his own sin." He said: So he pardoned him. And I saw him dragging his rope, having been pardoned.
