Beginning of the Musnad of Ibn Abbas
Musnad Abi Ya'la 2409 — he said: Thursday! And what a (hard) day
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَحْوَلِ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : وَمَا يَوْمُ الْخَمِيسِ ! يَوْمٌ اشْتَدَّ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَجَعُهُ ، فَقَالَ : ائْتُونِي أَكْتُبْ لَكُمْ كِتَابًا لَا تَضِلُّونَ بَعْدَهُ ، فَتَنَازَعُوا - وَلَا يَنْبَغِي عِنْدَ نَبِيٍّ تَنَازُعٌ - قَالَ : دَعُونِي فَمَا أَنَا فِيهِ خَيْرٌ مِمَّا تُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : أَمَرَهُمْ بِثَلَاثٍ قَالَ : أَخْرِجُوا الْمُشْرِكِينَ مِنْ جَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِ ، وَأَجِيزُوا الْوَفْدَ بِنَحْوِ مَا كُنْتُ أُجِيزُهُمْ ، وَالثَّالِثَةُ لَا أَدْرِي قَالَهَا فَنَسِيتُهَا ، أَوْ لَمْ يَقُلْهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: "Thursday! And what a (hard) day that Thursday was! It was the day on which the pain of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) grew severe, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Bring me (writing materials) so that I may write for you a document after which you will never go astray.' At this the people disagreed, although quarrelling in the presence of a prophet is not fitting. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Leave me as I am, for the (state of absorption and attention to Allah) that I am in at this moment is better than what you are asking me for.' Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded them three things; he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Expel the polytheists from the Arabian Peninsula, and host and honour the delegations just as I used to host them.' As for the third thing, (the narrator Sa'id bin Jubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) says:) I do not remember whether he mentioned it and I forgot it, or whether he did not mention it at all."
