مُسْنَدُ عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ رَضِيَ اللّٰهُ عَنْهُمَا
Musnad of Abdullah ibn al-Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with them)
Musnad Ahmad 3161 — Musnad of Abdullah ibn al-Abbas ibn Abd
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ وَمَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ ذَرٍّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُمْ ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا نُحَدِّثُ أَنْفُسَنَا بِالشَّيْءِ ، لَأَنْ يَكُونَ أَحَدُنَا حُمَمَةً ، أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ؟ قَالَ : فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا : " الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَقْدِرْ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا عَلَى الْوَسْوَسَةِ " . وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ : " الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي رَدَّ أَمْرَهُ إِلَى الْوَسْوَسَةِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Sometimes such thoughts come to me that I consider it better to fall from the sky than to utter them. Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said "Allahu Akbar" three times and said: "All praise is due to Allah who has turned the matter back to whisperings."
