حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بنُ عَمْرٍو ، حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا مَعَ حُذَيْفَةَ فَأَقْبلَ عَبدُ اللَّهِ بنُ مَسْعُودٍ ، فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ : " إِنَّ أَشْبهَ النَّاسِ هَدْيًا وَدَلًّا برَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ حِينِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بيْتِهِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ ، فَلَا أَدْرِي مَا يَصْنَعُ فِي أَهْلِهِ كَعَبدِ اللَّهِ بنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ عَلِمَ الْمَحْفُوظُونَ مِنْ أَصْحَاب مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ عَبدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَقْرَبهِمْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَسِيلَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that in manners and character, the one who most closely resembled the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him). From the time he left his house until he returned, I do not know what he did inside his house. Shaqiq says that once we went to Hazrat Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him to tell us of a person who was closest to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in manners and character, so that we could learn these ways from him and listen to his words. He replied that in manners and character, the one who was closest to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), to the extent that he would sit in his house hiding from me, even though the trusted companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) knew that Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was the closest to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) among all of them.
