Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39308 — Reports on how old the Prophet
٣٩٣٠٨ - حدثنا وكيع عن سفيان عن خالد عن عمار مولى بني هاشم عن ابن عباس أن رسول اللَّه ﷺ بُعث وهو ابن أربعين، وأقام (بمكة) (١) خمس عشرة، وبالمدينة عشرًا، فقبض وهو ابن خمس وستين (٢).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sent as a prophet when his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed age was forty years, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) resided for fifteen years in Makkah and ten years in Madinah. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed age was sixty-five years.
