Beginning of the Musnad of Ibn Abbas
Musnad Abi Ya'la 2584 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, during the illness
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ يَعْلَى بْنَ حَكِيمٍ ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - خَرَجَ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ عَاصِبًا رَأْسَهُ بِخِرْقَةٍ ، فَجَلَسَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحَدٌ أَمَنَّ عَلَيَّ بِنَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ مِنِ ابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ ، وَلَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا مِنَ النَّاسِ خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ، وَلَكِنْ خُلَّةُ الْإِسْلَامِ أَفْضَلُ ، سُدُّوا كُلَّ خَوْخَةٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ غَيْرَ خَوْخَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ .
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), during the illness in which he passed away, came out with a strip of cloth tied around his head, sat on the pulpit, praised and glorified Allah Almighty, and then said: "Indeed, there is no one among the people more generous to me with his life and wealth than Sayyiduna Ibn Abi Quhafah (may Allah be pleased with him). If I were to take anyone among the people as a khalil (an intimate friend), I would take Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him); but the bond and brotherhood of Islam is superior. Close every small door opening into the mosque except the door of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him)."
