(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يُودَى الْمُكَاتَبُ بِقَدْرِ مَا أَدَّى دِيَةَ الْحُرِّ ، وَبِقَدْرِ مَا رَقَّ دِيَةَ الْعَبْدِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that regarding a mukatab (contracted slave) who has been set free (and someone kills him), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave this ruling: “For the portion of the contract that he has paid, he will be given the blood money of a free man, and for the portion that remains unpaid, for which he is still a slave, the blood money of a slave will be given.”
Hadith 2357
(حديث موقوف) حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " لَمَّا اجَمَعَ الْقَوْمُ لِغَسْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم ، وَلَيْسَ فِي الْبَيْتِ إِلَّا أَهْلُهُ : عَمُّهُ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ، وَالْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ ، وَقُثَمُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ ، وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ ، وَصَالِحٌ مَوْلَاهُ ، فَلَمَّا اجَْمَعُوا لِغَسْلِهِ نَادَى مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْبَابِ أَوْسُ بْنُ خَوْلِيِّ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ، ثُمَّ أَحَدُ بَنِي عَوْفِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ ، وَكَانَ بَدْرِيًّا ، عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : يَا عَلِيُّ ، نَشَدْتُكَ اللَّهَ ، وَحَظَّنَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , قَالَ : فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ : ادْخُلْ , فَدَخَلَ فَحَضَرَ غَسْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَلَمْ يَلِ مِنْ غَسْلِهِ شَيْئًا ، قَالَ : فَأَسْنَدَهُ إِلَى صَدْرِهِ ، وَعَلَيْهِ قَمِيصُهُ ، وَكَانَ الْعَبَّاسُ ، وَالْفَضْلُ ، وَقُثَمُ ، يُقَلِّبُونَهُ مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، وَكَانَ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، وَصَالِحٌ مَوْلَاهُمَا ، يَصُبَّانِ الْمَاءَ ، وَجَعَلَ عَلِيٌّ يَغْسِلُهُ ، وَلَمْ يُرَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ شَيْءٌ مِمَّا يُراهُ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي ، مَا أَطْيَبَكَ حَيًّا وَمَيِّتًا ! , حَتَّى إِذَا فَرَغُوا مِنْ غَسْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَكَانَ يُغَسَّلُ بِالْمَاءِ وَالسِّدْرِ ، جَفَّفُوهُ ، ثُمَّ صُنِعَ بِهِ مَا يُصْنَعُ بِالْمَيِّتِ ، ثُمَّ أُدْرِجَ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ : ثَوْبَيْنِ أَبْيَضَيْنِ ، وَبُرْدِ حِبَرَةٍ , ثُمَّ دَعَا الْعَبَّاسُ رَجُلَيْن ، فَقَالَ : لِيَذْهَبْ أَحَدُكُمَا إِلَى أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاح ، وَكَانَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ يَضْرَحُ لِأَهْلِ مَكَّةَ ، وَلْيَذْهَبْ الْآخَرُ إِلَى أَبِي طَلْحَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ، وَكَانَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ يَلْحَدُ لِأَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ قَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ لَهُمَا حِينَ سَرَّحَهُمَا : اللَّهُمَّ خِرْ لِرَسُولِكَ , قَالَ : فَذَهَبَا ، فَلَمْ يَجِدْ صَاحِبُ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ ، وَوَجَدَ صَاحِبُ أَبِي طَلْحَة أَبَا طَلْحَةَ ، فَجَاءَ بِهِ ، فَلَحَدَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when there was consensus to give the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) a bath, at that time only the family of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were present in the house, such as his uncle Sayyiduna Abbas, Sayyiduna Ali, Sayyiduna Fadl, Sayyiduna Qutham, Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid, and Sayyiduna Salih (may Allah be pleased with them all). Meanwhile, Sayyiduna Aws bin Khawli Ansari Khazraji Badri (may Allah be pleased with him), who was standing at the door of the house, called out to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "O Ali! I swear by Allah, include us as well." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him, "Come in," so he also entered and was present at that occasion, although he did not participate in the bathing. He supported the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) against his chest, while the shirt was still on the body. Sayyiduna Abbas, Sayyiduna Fadl, and Sayyiduna Qutham (may Allah be pleased with them) were turning the blessed side, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was assisting them, Sayyiduna Usama and Sayyiduna Salih (may Allah be pleased with them both) were pouring water, and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was giving the bath. Nothing of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was exposed that is usually exposed of the deceased. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), while bathing, kept saying: "May my parents be sacrificed for you, how pure you were in life and in death." It should be noted that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was bathed with water and lote tree leaves. After completing the bath, the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) dried the blessed body of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then did what is done with the deceased, that is, he was wrapped in three garments, two of which were white and one was a striped red Yemeni sheet. Then it was found that Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah (may Allah be pleased with him) used to make a box-shaped grave as the people of Makkah did, and Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him)—whose real name was Zayd bin Sahl—used to make a side niche grave for the people of Madinah. So Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) called two men, sent one to Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah (may Allah be pleased with him) and the other to Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him), and prayed, "O Allah! Choose what is better for Your Prophet." Thus, the man who went to Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) found him and brought him, and in this way, a side niche grave was prepared for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنَا خُصَيْفُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْجَزَرِيُّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : يَا أَبَا الْعَبَّاسِ ، عَجَبًا لِاخْتِلَافِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي إِهْلَالِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ أَوْجَبَ ! فَقَالَ : " إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ النَّاسِ بِذَلِكَ ، إِنَّهَا إِنَّمَا كَانَتْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَجَّةً وَاحِدَةً ، فَمِنْ هُنَالِكَ اخْتَلَفُوا ، خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَاجًّا ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى فِي مَسْجِدِهِ بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ رَكْعَتَيْهِ أَوْجَبَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ، فَأَهَلَّ بِالْحَجِّ حِينَ فَرَغَ مِنْ رَكْعَتَيْهِ ، فَسَمِعَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ أَقْوَامٌ ، فَحَفِظُوا عَنْهُ ، ثُمَّ رَكِبَ ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَقَلَّتْ بِهِ نَاقَتُهُ أَهَلَّ ، وَأَدْرَكَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ أَقْوَامٌ ، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ النَّاسَ إِنَّمَا كَانُوا يَأْتُونَ أَرْسَالًا ، فَسَمِعُوهُ حِينَ اسْتَقَلَّتْ بِهِ نَاقَتُهُ يُهِلُّ ، فَقَالُوا : إِنَّمَا أَهَلَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ اسْتَقَلَّتْ بِهِ نَاقَتُهُ , ثُمَّ مَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَمَّا عَلَا عَلَى شَرَفِ الْبَيْدَاءِ أَهَلَّ ، وَأَدْرَكَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ أَقْوَامٌ ، فَقَالُوا : إِنَّمَا أَهَلَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ عَلَا عَلَى شَرَفِ الْبَيْدَاءِ , وَايْمُ اللَّهِ ، لَقَدْ أَوْجَبَ فِي مُصَلَّاهُ ، وَأَهَلَّ حِينَ اسْتَقَلَّتْ بِهِ نَاقَتُهُ , وَأَهَلَّ حِينَ عَلَا عَلَى شَرَفِ الْبَيْدَاءِ , فَمَنْ أَخَذَ بِقَوْلِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ , أَهَلَّ فِي مُصَلَّاهُ إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ رَكْعَتَيْهِ " .
Hazrat Saeed bin Jubair (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I said to Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them): O Abu al-Abbas! I am greatly astonished at the difference among the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) regarding the Ihram of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) replied: At this time, I know this matter among the people more than anyone else. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed only one Hajj in his entire life; from here the difference among the people arose. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out with the intention of Hajj. When he had prayed two rak'ahs in the mosque of Dhul-Hulaifah, he assumed Ihram while sitting right there. People heard this and preserved it in their minds. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mounted his ride. When the she-camel straightened up with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he again uttered the words of intention for Ihram. Some people heard these words because people used to come in different groups; they did not all come together at once. These people later began to say that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) assumed Ihram when the she-camel straightened up with him. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) moved forward. When he ascended the height of Bayda, he again recited the Talbiyah. Some people remembered this time and began to say that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) assumed Ihram at the height of Bayda. Whereas the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had made the intention of Ihram while sitting on his prayer place, but he repeated the Talbiyah at the time when his ride started moving, and also when he ascended the height of Bayda. Therefore, whoever wants to act upon the statement of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) should make the intention of Ihram while sitting at his place after completing the two rak'ahs of Ihram.
Hadith 2359
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدِ بْنِ جَبْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : أَهْدَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ مِائَةَ بَدَنَةٍ ، نَحَرَ مِنْهَا ثَلَاثِينَ بَدَنَةً بِيَدِهِ ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ عَلِيًّا فَنَحَرَ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْهَا ، وَقَالَ : " اقْسِمْ لُحُومَهَا وَجِلَالَهَا وَجُلُودَهَا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ ، وَلَا تُعْطِيَنَّ جَزَّارًا مِنْهَا شَيْئًا ، وَخُذْ لَنَا مِنْ كُلِّ بَعِيرٍ حُذْيَةً مِنْ لَحْمٍ ، ثُمَّ اجْعَلْهَا فِي قِدْرٍ وَاحِدَةٍ ، حَتَّى نَأْكُلَ مِنْ لَحْمِهَا ، وَنَحْسُوَ مِنْ مَرَقِهَا " , فَفَعَلَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) offered the sacrifice of one hundred camels on the occasion of the Farewell Pilgrimage. Out of these, he slaughtered thirty with his own blessed hand, then he ordered Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and he slaughtered the rest. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had instructed him: "Distribute all of their meat, blankets, and skins among the people. Do not give the butcher anything from it as payment. And from each camel, set aside a long piece of meat for us. Then cook all of them together in a pot so that we may eat its meat and drink its broth." Accordingly, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) did so.
Hadith 2360
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ , حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي , عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ , حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الزُّهْرِيُّ ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ لَهُ : يَا أَبَا الْعَبَّاسِ ، أَرَأَيْتَ قَوْلَكَ : مَا حَجَّ رَجُلٌ لَمْ يَسُقْ الْهَدْيَ مَعَهُ ، ثُمَّ طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ ، إِلَّا حَلَّ بِعُمْرَة ، وَمَا طَافَ بِهَا حَاجٌّ قَدْ سَاقَ مَعَهُ الْهَدْيَ ، إِلَّا اجْتَمَعَتْ لَهُ عُمْرَةٌ وَحَجَّةٌ ، وَالنَّاسُ لَا يَقُولُونَ هَذَا , فَقَالَ : وَيْحَكَ ، إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ ، لَا يَذْكُرُونَ إِلَّا الْحَجَّ ، فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُ الْهَدْيُ أَنْ يَطُوفَ بِالْبَيْتِ وَيُحِلَّ بِعُمْرَةٍ ، فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ يَقُولُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّمَا هُوَ الْحَجُّ , فَيَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِالْحَجِّ ، وَلَكِنَّهَا عُمْرَةٌ " .
Kuraib, the freed slave of Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them), says: Once I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them), "O Abu al-Abbas! You say that a person who is not taking a sacrificial animal with him for Hajj should perform Tawaf of the House of Allah and, after performing Umrah, become halal (come out of the state of Ihram), and that the pilgrim who is taking a sacrificial animal with him, his Hajj and Umrah are combined. But people do not say this?" Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "Woe to you! When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) set out, they mentioned only Hajj at the time of entering Ihram. Later, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) commanded that 'whoever does not have a sacrificial animal should perform Tawaf of the House of Allah and, after performing Umrah, become halal (come out of Ihram).' A man said, 'O Messenger of Allah! This is the Ihram of Hajj?' The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, 'This is not Hajj, rather it is Umrah.'"
Hadith 2361
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ طَاوُس ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " مَا أَعْمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَائِشَةَ لَيْلَةَ الْحَصْبَةِ إِلَّا قَطْعًا لِأَمْرِ أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ ، فَإِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ : إِذَا بَرَأَ الدَّبَرْ ، وَعَفَا الْأَثَرْ ، وَدَخَلَ صَفَرْ ، فَقَدْ حَلَّتْ الْعُمْرَةُ لِمَنْ اعْتَمَرْ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) perform Umrah on the occasion of «لَيْلَةَ الْحَصْبَةِ» only to refute the notion of the polytheists who used to say that when the back of the she-camel becomes sound, the footprints of the pilgrims have disappeared, and the month of Safar has ended, then it becomes permissible for those performing Umrah to do so.
Hadith 2362
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدِ بْنِ جَبْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ كَانَ " أَهْدَى جَمَلَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ ، الَّذِي كَانَ اسْتَلَبَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ فِي رَأْسِهِ بُرَةٌ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ ، عَامَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فِي هَدْيِهِ " , وَقَالَ فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ : " لِيَغِيظَ بِذَلِكَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that (on the occasion of the Farewell Pilgrimage, the Prophet ﷺ sacrificed one hundred camels), among which was a red camel belonging to Abu Jahl, which had a silver ring in its nose, so that it would enrage the polytheists.
Hadith 2363
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنا بُشَيْرُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي حَارِثَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ فِي رَمَضَانَ ، فَصَامَ رمضان ، وَصَامَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مَعَهُ ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِالْكَدِيدِ ، دَعَا بِمَاءٍ فِي قَعْبٍ وَهُوَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ ، فَشَرِبَ ، وَالنَّاسُ يَنْظُرُونَ ، يُعْلِمُهُمْ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَفْطَرَ ، فَأَفْطَرَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out from Madinah Munawwarah with the intention of Makkah Mukarramah in the year of the conquest of Makkah during the month of Ramadan. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the Muslims were fasting, but when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached the place of Kadid, he called for a vessel and placed it on his hand so that everyone could see, then he broke his fast, and the Muslims also broke their fast.
Hadith 2364
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : كَانَ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ يَسْدِلُونَ أَشْعَارَهُمْ ، وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَفْرُقُونَ رُءُوسَهُم ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " يُعْجِبُهُ مُوَافَقَةُ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ فِي بَعْضِ مَا لَمْ يُؤْمَرِ فِيهِ ، فَسَدَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَاصِيَتَهُ ، ثُمَّ فَرَقَ بَعْدُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the polytheists used to part their hair, while the People of the Book would leave them as they were, and the blessed habit of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was that in matters where no command had come, he preferred to follow and agree with the People of the Book rather than the polytheists. Therefore, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would also not part his hair, but later he (peace and blessings be upon him) started parting his hair.
Hadith 2365
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عَبَّاسِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ ، عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " الْأَيِّمُ أَوْلَى بِأَمْرِهَا ، وَالْيَتِيمَةُ تُسْتَأْمَرُ فِي نَفْسِهَا ، وَإِذْنُهَا صُمَاتُهَا " .
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) said: "A previously married woman has more right over herself than her guardian, but a virgin should be asked for her permission, and her silence is her permission."

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " رَدَّ ابْنَتَهُ زَيْنَبَ عَلَى أَبِي الْعَاصِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ ، وَكَانَ إِسْلَامُهَا قَبْلَ إِسْلَامِهِ بِسِتِّ سِنِينَ عَلَى النِّكَاحِ الْأَوَّلِ ، وَلَمْ يُحْدِثْ شَهَادَةً وَلَا صَدَاقًا " .
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) handed over his daughter, Sayyidah Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her), to her husband Abu Al-As ibn Al-Rabi’ (upon his acceptance of Islam) on the basis of the previous marriage, without renewing the marriage contract or setting a new dowry, even though Sayyidah Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her) had accepted Islam six years before her husband.
Hadith 2367
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : وَذَكَرَ طَلْحَةُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " تَزَوَّجَ رَجُلٌ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ مِنْ بَلْعَجْلَانَ ، فَدَخَلَ بِهَا فَبَاتَ عِنْدَهَا ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ ، قَالَ : مَا وَجَدْتُهَا عَذْرَاءَ , قَالَ : فَرُفِعَ شَأْنُهُمَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَدَعَا الْجَارِيَةَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَأَلَهَا ، فَقَالَتْ : بَلَى ، قَدْ كُنْتُ عَذْرَاءَ , قَالَ : فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَلَاعَنَا ، وَأَعْطَاهَا الْمَهْر " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man married a woman from the Ansar tribe of Banu Ajlan. He spent the night with her, and in the morning he said that he did not find her to be a virgin. This matter was presented before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called the girl and asked her, and she said: Why not, I was indeed a virgin. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered both of them to perform li'an (mutual cursing) and had the girl given her dowry.
Hadith 2368
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، وَسَعْدٌ , قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِرَجْمِ الْيَهُودِيِّ وَالْيَهُودِيَّةِ ، عِنْدَ بَابِ مَسْجِدِهِ ، فَلَمَّا وَجَدَ الْيَهُودِيُّ مَسَّ الْحِجَارَةِ قَامَ عَلَى صَاحِبَتِهِ ، فَجنَا عَلَيْهَا يَقِيهَا مَسَّ الْحِجَارَةِ ، حَتَّى قُتِلَا جَمِيعًا ، فَكَانَ مِمَّا صَنَعَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِرَسُولِهِ فِي تَحْقِيقِ الزِّنَا مِنْهُمَا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered a Jewish man and woman to be stoned at the door of the mosque. When the Jew felt the pain of the stones, he began to bend over to shield the woman, until both of them perished. In reality, the punishment that was given to them was the punishment prescribed by Allah, because proof of adultery had been established regarding both of them, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) carried out this punishment upon them.
Hadith 2369
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ ، قَالَ : وَحَدَّثَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ ، أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِشَاةٍ مَيْتَةٍ ، فَقَالَ : " هَلَّا اسْتَمْتَعْتُمْ بِإِهَابِهَا ؟ " , فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّهَا مَيْتَةٌ , فَقَالَ : " إِنَّمَا حَرُمَ أَكْلُهَا " .
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) passed by a dead goat. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why did you not benefit from its skin?" The people said: O Messenger of Allah! It is dead. He said: "Its eating is forbidden (but its skin can be purified by tanning)."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wrote a letter to Caesar, the ruler of Rome, inviting him to Islam. He sent this letter with Sayyiduna Dihyah Kalbi (may Allah be pleased with him), instructing him to deliver it to the governor of Busra so that he could forward it to Caesar. Accordingly, the governor of Busra delivered the letter to Caesar. Since Allah Almighty had granted Caesar victory over the Persian armies, he had, in gratitude, traveled on foot from Homs to Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem). Carpets were laid out for him along the entire route during this journey.
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that when Caesar received the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) letter, he read it and said, “Find me a man from his people so that I may ask him some questions.” Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that Sayyiduna Abu Sufyan ibn Harb (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated to me that Heraclius (the king of Rome) sent a man to him while he was among a group of Quraysh horsemen who had come to Syria as traders. This incident occurred at a time when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had made a limited truce with Abu Sufyan and the disbelievers of Quraysh.
So the Quraysh came to Heraclius, and they were in Aelia (Jerusalem) at that time. Heraclius summoned them to his court, surrounded by the Roman dignitaries. He called all the Quraysh closer to him and summoned his interpreter. Addressing the Quraysh, he asked, “Who among you is the closest in lineage to the man who claims to be a prophet?” Sayyiduna Abu Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) said, “I am the closest in lineage among them.” Upon hearing this, Heraclius said, “Bring Abu Sufyan closer to me and keep his companions near him, standing behind him.” Then he said to his interpreter, “Tell these people that I will ask Abu Sufyan about this man (who claims to be a prophet). If he lies to me, you should immediately refute him.”
(Abu Sufyan says:) By Allah! If I had not been ashamed that people would accuse me of lying, I would have certainly fabricated things about the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The first thing Heraclius asked me was, “How is his lineage among you?” I replied, “He is of noble lineage among us.” Then Heraclius asked, “Has anyone among you ever made such a claim (of prophethood) before him?” I said, “No.” Heraclius asked, “Was there any king among his ancestors?” I said, “No.” Heraclius asked, “Have the influential people followed him or the weak?” I said, “Rather, the weak have followed him.” Heraclius asked, “Are his followers increasing or decreasing?” I said, “They are increasing.” Heraclius asked, “Does anyone, after embracing his religion, become displeased with it and leave it?” I said, “No.” Heraclius asked, “Does he ever break his promises?” I said, “No, and we are currently in a truce with him. We do not know what he will do during this period.” (Abu Sufyan says:) Other than this statement, I could not find any opportunity to insert anything against the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
Heraclius asked, “Have you ever fought him?” I said, “Yes.” He asked, “How did your battles with him go?” I said, “The fighting between us and him is like a seesaw; sometimes he prevails over us, and sometimes we prevail over him.” Heraclius asked, “What does he command you to do?” I said, “He tells us to worship Allah alone and not to associate anything with Him, and to abandon what our forefathers used to worship. He commands us to pray, to speak the truth, to be pious, and to maintain family ties.”
After this, Heraclius said to his interpreter, “Tell Abu Sufyan: I asked you about his lineage, and you said he is of noble lineage among you. Indeed, all the prophets are sent from the noblest lineage of their people. I asked you if anyone among you had made such a claim before him, and you said no. If you had said yes, I would have thought that he was imitating what had been said before him. I asked you if any of his ancestors was a king, and you said no. If you had said yes, I would have thought that he was a man seeking to reclaim his ancestral kingdom. I asked you if you ever accused him of lying before he made this claim, and you said no. I know that a person who does not lie to people would not lie about Allah. I asked you whether the influential or the weak followed him, and you said the weak. Indeed, they are the followers of the prophets. I asked you whether his followers are increasing or decreasing, and you said increasing. This is the nature of faith until it reaches its perfection. I asked you if anyone, after embracing his religion, becomes displeased and leaves it, and you said no. This is how faith is when its delight enters the hearts. I asked you if he ever breaks his promises, and you said no. Likewise, the prophets never break their promises. I asked you what he commands you to do, and you said he commands you to worship Allah alone, not to associate anything with Him, forbids you from worshipping idols, and commands you to pray, speak the truth, and be pious. If what you say is true, then soon he will own the very place beneath my feet. I knew from the previous scriptures that he was going to appear, but I did not think he would be from among you. If I knew I could reach him, I would go to great lengths to meet him, and if I were with him, I would certainly wash his feet.”
Then Heraclius called for the (blessed) letter of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and had it read. In it was written: “In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. From Allah’s servant and His Messenger, Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), to the ruler of Rome. Peace be upon him who follows guidance. After this, I invite you to Islam. Accept Islam and you will be safe, and Allah will grant you your reward twice over. But if you turn away, then upon you will be the sin of your subjects. And: ‘O People of the Book! Come to a word that is just between us and you: that we worship none but Allah, and that we associate nothing with Him, and that none of us shall take others as lords besides Allah. But if they turn away, then say: Bear witness that we are Muslims (submitting to Allah).’”
Abu Sufyan says: When Heraclius had finished saying what he wanted and finished reading the letter, there was a great commotion, voices were raised, and we were expelled from there. I said to my companions, when we were turned out, “Look! The matter of the son of Abu Kabshah (Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him) has become so great that even the king of the Romans fears him.” I always remained certain that he would soon prevail, until Allah compelled me to accept Islam.
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that when Caesar received the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) letter, he read it and said, “Find me a man from his people so that I may ask him some questions.” Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that Sayyiduna Abu Sufyan ibn Harb (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated to me that Heraclius (the king of Rome) sent a man to him while he was among a group of Quraysh horsemen who had come to Syria as traders. This incident occurred at a time when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had made a limited truce with Abu Sufyan and the disbelievers of Quraysh.
So the Quraysh came to Heraclius, and they were in Aelia (Jerusalem) at that time. Heraclius summoned them to his court, surrounded by the Roman dignitaries. He called all the Quraysh closer to him and summoned his interpreter. Addressing the Quraysh, he asked, “Who among you is the closest in lineage to the man who claims to be a prophet?” Sayyiduna Abu Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) said, “I am the closest in lineage among them.” Upon hearing this, Heraclius said, “Bring Abu Sufyan closer to me and keep his companions near him, standing behind him.” Then he said to his interpreter, “Tell these people that I will ask Abu Sufyan about this man (who claims to be a prophet). If he lies to me, you should immediately refute him.”
(Abu Sufyan says:) By Allah! If I had not been ashamed that people would accuse me of lying, I would have certainly fabricated things about the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The first thing Heraclius asked me was, “How is his lineage among you?” I replied, “He is of noble lineage among us.” Then Heraclius asked, “Has anyone among you ever made such a claim (of prophethood) before him?” I said, “No.” Heraclius asked, “Was there any king among his ancestors?” I said, “No.” Heraclius asked, “Have the influential people followed him or the weak?” I said, “Rather, the weak have followed him.” Heraclius asked, “Are his followers increasing or decreasing?” I said, “They are increasing.” Heraclius asked, “Does anyone, after embracing his religion, become displeased with it and leave it?” I said, “No.” Heraclius asked, “Does he ever break his promises?” I said, “No, and we are currently in a truce with him. We do not know what he will do during this period.” (Abu Sufyan says:) Other than this statement, I could not find any opportunity to insert anything against the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
Heraclius asked, “Have you ever fought him?” I said, “Yes.” He asked, “How did your battles with him go?” I said, “The fighting between us and him is like a seesaw; sometimes he prevails over us, and sometimes we prevail over him.” Heraclius asked, “What does he command you to do?” I said, “He tells us to worship Allah alone and not to associate anything with Him, and to abandon what our forefathers used to worship. He commands us to pray, to speak the truth, to be pious, and to maintain family ties.”
After this, Heraclius said to his interpreter, “Tell Abu Sufyan: I asked you about his lineage, and you said he is of noble lineage among you. Indeed, all the prophets are sent from the noblest lineage of their people. I asked you if anyone among you had made such a claim before him, and you said no. If you had said yes, I would have thought that he was imitating what had been said before him. I asked you if any of his ancestors was a king, and you said no. If you had said yes, I would have thought that he was a man seeking to reclaim his ancestral kingdom. I asked you if you ever accused him of lying before he made this claim, and you said no. I know that a person who does not lie to people would not lie about Allah. I asked you whether the influential or the weak followed him, and you said the weak. Indeed, they are the followers of the prophets. I asked you whether his followers are increasing or decreasing, and you said increasing. This is the nature of faith until it reaches its perfection. I asked you if anyone, after embracing his religion, becomes displeased and leaves it, and you said no. This is how faith is when its delight enters the hearts. I asked you if he ever breaks his promises, and you said no. Likewise, the prophets never break their promises. I asked you what he commands you to do, and you said he commands you to worship Allah alone, not to associate anything with Him, forbids you from worshipping idols, and commands you to pray, speak the truth, and be pious. If what you say is true, then soon he will own the very place beneath my feet. I knew from the previous scriptures that he was going to appear, but I did not think he would be from among you. If I knew I could reach him, I would go to great lengths to meet him, and if I were with him, I would certainly wash his feet.”
Then Heraclius called for the (blessed) letter of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and had it read. In it was written: “In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. From Allah’s servant and His Messenger, Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), to the ruler of Rome.

Abu Sufyan says: When Heraclius had finished saying what he wanted and finished reading the letter, there was a great commotion, voices were raised, and we were expelled from there. I said to my companions, when we were turned out, “Look! The matter of the son of Abu Kabshah (Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him) has become so great that even the king of the Romans fears him.” I always remained certain that he would soon prevail, until Allah compelled me to accept Islam.

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ , سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ , عَنْ رُؤْيَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّتِي ذَكَرَ ؟ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : ذَكَرَ لِي أن رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " بَيْنَمَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ , أُرَيْتُ أَنَّهُ وُضِعَ فِي يَدَيَّ سِوَارَانِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ ، فَفَظِعْتُهُمَا ، فَكَرِهْتُهُمَا ، وَأُذِنَ لِي فَنَفَخْتُهُمَا فَطَارَا ، فَأَوَّلْتُهُ : كَذَّابَيْنِ يَخْرُجَانِ " , قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ : أَحَدُهُمَا الْعَنْسِيُّ الَّذِي قَتَلَهُ فَيْرُوزُ بِالْيَمَنِ ، وَالْآخَرُ مُسَيْلِمَةُ .
Ubaidullah says that I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) if he remembered any dream of the Prophet (peace be upon him), then tell me. He said that it has been mentioned before me that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "I was sleeping, and it seemed as if two gold bangles were placed in my hands. I became anxious and felt great aversion to them. I was commanded, so I blew on both of them, and they both flew away. I interpret this as referring to two great liars who will appear." Ubaidullah says that one of them was Aswad Ansi, whom Sayyiduna Fayruz (may Allah be pleased with him) dealt with in Yemen, and the other was Musaylimah the Liar.
Hadith 2374
(حديث موقوف) حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ صَالِحٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَخْبَرَهُ : " أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، خَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فِي وَجَعِهِ الَّذِي تُوُفِّيَ فِيهِ ، فَقَالَ النَّاسُ : يَا أَبَا حَسَنٍ ، كَيْفَ أَصْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ فَقَالَ : أَصْبَحَ بِحَمْدِ اللَّهِ بَارِئًا , قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ عَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، فَقَالَ : أَلَا تَرَى أَنْتَ ؟ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَيُتَوَفَّى فِي وَجَعِهِ هَذَا ، إِنِّي أَعْرِفُ وُجُوهَ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ ، فَاذْهَبْ بِنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَلْنَسْأَلْهُ فِيمَنْ هَذَا الْأَمْرُ ؟ فَإِنْ كَانَ فِينَا ، عَلِمْنَا ذَلِكَ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ فِي غَيْرِنَا , كَلَّمْنَاهُ ، فَأَوْصَى بِنَا , فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : وَاللَّهِ لَئِنْ سَأَلْنَاهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَنَعَنَاهَا ، لَا يُعْطِينَاهَا النَّاسُ أَبَدًا ، فَوَاللَّهِ لَا أَسْأَلُهُ أَبَدًا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) came out from the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) during the illness of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) before his passing. The people asked: "Abu al-Hasan! How is the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied: "Now, since morning, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is, all praise is due to Allah, well." Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that upon this, Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) took the hand of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "Do you not see? By Allah! From this illness, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will not recover and will pass away. I recognize the state that overtakes the faces of the sons of Abdul Muttalib at the time of death. So come, let us go to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and ask him who will have the caliphate after him. If it is to be among us, we will know about it, and if it is to be among others, then we will speak to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) so that he may advise the coming caliph regarding us." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By Allah! If we request this from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and he refuses to grant our request, then people will never give us the caliphate. Therefore, I will never make this request to him."
Hadith 2375
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ ، أَنَّ الْمِسْوَرَ بْنَ مَخْرَمَةَ ، وَعَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَبْدٍ الْقَارِيَّ حَدَّثَاهُ أَنَّهُمَا ، سَمِعَا عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ هِشَامَ بْنَ حَكِيمِ بْنِ حِزَامٍ يَقْرَأُ ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ , قَالَ مُحَمَّد , وَحَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " أَقْرَأَنِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام عَلَى حَرْفٍ فَرَاجَعْتُهُ ، فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أَسْتَزِيدُهُ وَيَزِيدُنِي ، حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى سَبْعَةِ أَحْرُفٍ " .
Hadith Number 278 It is also narrated here through another chain, and at the end of it, there is this addition that from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), the statement of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is reported: "Gabriel the Trustworthy (peace be upon him) taught me the Noble Qur'an on one mode, I kept requesting him for an increase, and he kept increasing it for me until it reached seven modes and then stopped."
Hadith 2376
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : " أَقْبَلْتُ ، وَقَدْ نَاهَزْتُ الْحُلُمَ ، أَسِيرُ عَلَى أَتَانٍ ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي لِلنَّاسِ بَمنِي حَتَّى صِرْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ بَعْضِ الصَّفِّ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ نَزَلْتُ عَنْهَا ، فَرَتَعَتْ ، فَصَفَفْتُ مَعَ النَّاسِ وَرَاءَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was leading the people in prayer at Mina. I—at that time near puberty—came riding on a donkey, passed in front of the first row, dismounted from it, left it to graze, and then joined the row myself.

Muhammad bin Amr, may Allah have mercy on him, says that once I presented myself before Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with both of them, on the day after Jumu'ah. At that time, he was in the house of Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyidah Maymunah, may Allah be pleased with her, because Sayyidah Maymunah, may Allah be pleased with her, had bequeathed this to him. When Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with both of them, would finish the Jumu'ah prayer, a mat would be spread for him there and he would come and sit there to answer people's questions. So a man asked Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with both of them, about the ruling of ablution after eating food cooked on fire. I was listening. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with both of them, raised his hand towards his eyes — at that time he had become blind — and said: I have seen with these two eyes of mine that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, performed ablution for the Zuhr prayer in one of his chambers. After a short while, Sayyiduna Bilal, may Allah be pleased with him, came to call for prayer. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, stood up to come out, and while he was still standing at the door of his chamber, a gift of meat and bread sent by a companion, may Allah be pleased with him, arrived. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, went back into the chamber with his companions and the food was presented before them. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, himself ate from it and the noble companions, may Allah be pleased with them, also ate. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, stood up with his companions to perform the prayer, and neither he nor any of his companions touched water, and the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, led them in prayer in that state. The narrator says that Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with both of them, remembered the last matters of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and at that time he had become mature.
Hadith 2378

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي , عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ نُوَيْفِعٍ ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : بَعَثَتْ بَنُو سَعْدِ بْنِ بَكْرٍ ضِمَامَ بْنَ ثَعْلَبَةَ ، وَافِدًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ ، وَأَنَاخَ بَعِيرَهُ عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ ، ثُمَّ عَقَلَهُ ، ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَالِسٌ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ ، وَكَانَ ضِمَامٌ رَجُلًا جَلْدًا أَشْعَرَ ذَا غَدِيرَتَيْنِ ، فَأَقْبَلَ حَتَّى وَقَفَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ ، فَقَالَ : أَيُّكُمْ ابْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَنَا ابْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ " , قَالَ : مُحَمَّدٌ ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ " , فَقَالَ : ابْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، إِنِّي سَائِلُكَ وَمُغَلِّظٌ فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ ، فَلَا تَجِدَنَّ فِي نَفْسِكَ ، قَالَ : " لَا أَجِدُ فِي نَفْسِي ، فَسَلْ عَمَّا بَدَا لَكَ " , قَالَ : أَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ إِلَهَكَ ، وَإِلَهَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكَ ، وَإِلَهَ مَنْ هُوَ كَائِنٌ بَعْدَكَ ، آللَّهُ بَعَثَكَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولًا ؟ فَقَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ " , قَالَ : فَأَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ إِلَهَكَ ، وَإِلَهَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكَ ، وَإِلَهَ مَنْ هُوَ كَائِنٌ بَعْدَكَ ، آللَّهُ أَمَرَكَ أَنْ تَأْمُرَنَا أَنْ نَعْبُدَهُ وَحْدَهُ ، لَا نُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا ، وَأَنْ نَخْلَعَ هَذِهِ الْأَنْدَادَ الَّتِي كَانَتْ آبَاؤُنَا يَعْبُدُونَ مَعَهُ ؟ قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ نَعَم " , قَالَ : فَأَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ إِلَهَكَ ، وَإِلَهَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكَ ، وَإِلَهَ مَنْ هُوَ كَائِنٌ بَعْدَكَ ، آللَّهُ أَمَرَكَ أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ هَذِهِ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ ؟ قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ " , قَالَ : ثُمَّ جَعَلَ يَذْكُرُ فَرَائِضَ الْإِسْلَامِ فَرِيضَةً فَرِيضَةً : الزَّكَاةَ ، وَالصِّيَامَ ، وَالْحَجَّ ، وَشَرَائِعَ الْإِسْلَامِ كُلَّهَا ، يُنَاشِدُهُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ فَرِيضَةٍ كَمَا يُنَاشِدُهُ فِي الَّتِي قَبْلَهَا ، حَتَّى إِذَا فَرَغَ ، قَالَ : فَإِنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، وَسَأُؤَدِّي هَذِهِ الْفَرَائِضَ ، وَأَجْتَنِبُ مَا نَهَيْتَنِي عَنْهُ ، ثُمَّ لَا أَزِيدُ وَلَا أَنْقُصُ , قَالَ : ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ رَاجِعًا إِلَى بَعِيرِهِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ وَلَّى : " إِنْ يَصْدُقْ ذُو الْعَقِيصَتَيْنِ ، يَدْخُلْ الْجَنَّةَ " , قَالَ : فَأَتَى إِلَى بَعِيرِهِ ، فَأَطْلَقَ عِقَالَهُ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ ، فَاجْتَمَعُوا إِلَيْهِ ، فَكَانَ أَوَّلَ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ أَنْ قَال : بِئْسَتِ اللَّاتُ وَالْعُزَّى , قَالُوا : مَهْ يَا ضِمَامُ ، اتَّقِ الْبَرَصَ وَالْجُذَامَ ، اتَّقِ الْجُنُونَ , قَالَ وَيْلَكُمْ ، إِنَّهُمَا وَاللَّهِ لَا يَضُرَّانِ وَلَا يَنْفَعَانِ ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ بَعَثَ رَسُولًا ، وَأَنْزَلَ عَلَيْهِ كِتَابًا اسْتَنْقَذَكُمْ بِهِ مِمَّا كُنْتُمْ فِيهِ ، وَإِنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ، وإِنِّي قَدْ جِئْتُكُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ بِمَا أَمَرَكُمْ بِهِ ، وَنَهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ , قَالَ : فَوَاللَّهِ مَا أَمْسَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ وَفِي حَاضِرِهِ رَجُلٌ وَلَا امْرَأَةٌ إِلَّا مُسْلِمًا , قَال : يَقُولُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : فَمَا سَمِعْنَا بِوَافِدِ قَوْمٍ كَانَ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ ضِمَامِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the tribe of Banu Sa’d bin Bakr sent Dhamam bin Tha’labah to present himself before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He came, made his camel sit at the door of the Prophet’s Mosque, tied it, and entered the mosque. At that time, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting among his companions (may Allah be pleased with them). Dhamam was a strong man, and he had a lot of hair on his head, which he had tied into two braids. He came walking and stopped by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, “Who among you is Ibn Abd al-Muttalib?” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “I am.” He asked, “Is your name Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)?” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied in the affirmative. Dhamam said, “O Ibn Abd al-Muttalib! I want to ask you some questions. It is possible that there may be some harshness or severity in them, so please do not mind.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “I do not mind. Ask whatever you wish to ask.” Dhamam said, “I swear by Allah, Who is your Lord, the Lord of those before you and those who will come after you, did Allah send you to us as a Messenger?” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Yes!” Then Dhamam said, “I ask you by Allah, Who is your Lord, the Lord of those before you and those who will come after you, did Allah command you to order us to worship Him alone and not associate anything with Him, and to abandon all those deities and partners whom our forefathers used to worship?” He replied, “Yes!” Then Dhamam, using the same oath, asked, “Did Allah command you to order us to perform these five prayers?” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Yes!” Then Dhamam asked, one by one, about the obligations of Islam, such as zakat, fasting, Hajj, and all other laws, and each time he would make the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) swear in the same words. When Dhamam finished, he said, “I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the Messenger of Allah. I will continue to perform these obligations, and I will abstain from whatever you have forbidden me, and I will not add or subtract anything from it.” Then he mounted his camel and left. After he left, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “If this man with two braids has spoken the truth, he will enter Paradise.” Dhamam, as soon as he left, loosened the rope of his camel until he reached his people. The people gathered around him. The first thing Dhamam said was, “Lat and Uzza are very evil things.” The people said, “Dhamam! Stop, beware of leprosy and madness, beware (that by speaking ill of these idols, you may not be afflicted with these things).” He said, “Alas! By Allah! Neither of these things can harm nor benefit. Allah has sent His Messenger, revealed His Book, and saved you from those things in which you were previously involved. I have borne witness that there is no god but Allah, He is alone, He has no partner, and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is His servant and Messenger. And I have brought you some commands from him and some things from which he forbids you.” By Allah! Before evening, every man and woman of his tribe had accepted Islam. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says, “We have not seen any representative of a people better than Sayyiduna Dhamam bin Tha’labah (may Allah be pleased with him).”

Hadith 2382
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ مَوْلَى عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " مَا كَانَتْ صَلَاةُ الْخَوْفِ إِلَّا كَصَلَاةِ أَحْرَاسِكُمْ , هؤلاء الْيَوْمَ خَلْفَ أَئِمَّتِكُمْ ، إِلَّا أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ عُقْبًا ، قَامَتْ طَائِفَةٌ وَهُمْ جَمْعٌ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَسَجَدَتْ مَعَهُ طَائِفَةٌ ، ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَسَجَدَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قِيَامًا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ ، ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم ، وَقَامُوا مَعَهُ جَمِيعًا ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ وَرَكَعُوا مَعَهُ جَمِيعًا ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ ، فَسَجَدَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَهُ قِيَامًا أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ ، وَقَامَ الْآخَرُونَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا سَجَدُوا مَعَهُ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ ، فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالَّذِينَ سَجَدُوا مَعَهُ فِي آخِرِ صَلَاتِهِمْ ، سَجَدَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قِيَامًا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ ، ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا ، فَجَمَعَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالسَّلَامِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Salat al-Khawf (prayer of fear) used to be performed in the same way as nowadays your guards pray behind your imams. However, what used to happen was that the army would be in the mountain passes, and a group of people would stand; all of them would be with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When one group with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had completed the prostration, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would stand up, and the group that was standing would perform the prostration themselves. Then, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would stand, all would stand. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would bow (ruku‘), and all the people would bow as well. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would prostrate, those who had stood the first time would join him in prostration, and those who had prostrated with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) the first time would stand up. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would sit, and those who had prostrated with him at the end would also sit, then those who were standing would perform the prostration. Then they would sit, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would conclude the prayer with salam, gathering all of them together.
Hadith 2383
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ الْيَمَانِيِّ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " اغْتَسِلُوا يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ ، وَاغْسِلُوا رُءُوسَكُمْ ، وَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُونُوا جُنُبًا ، وَمَسُّوا مِنَ الطِّيبِ " , قَالَ : فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : أَمَّا الطِّيبُ ، فَلَا أَدْرِي ، وَأَمَّا الْغُسْلُ ، فَنَعَمْ .
Tawoos (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that people think that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Even if you are not in a state of major impurity, still perform ghusl (ritual bath) on the day of Jumu'ah, wash your head, and apply perfume"? Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) replied that I do not know about the perfume, but the matter of ghusl is correct.
Hadith 2384
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي سَلَمَةُ بْنُ كُهَيْلٍ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ نُوَيْفِعٍ مَوْلَى آلِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، كِلَاهُمَا حَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فِي بُرْدٍ لَهُ حَضْرَمِيٍّ مُتَوَشِّحَاً به ، مَا عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُهُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) at night, wrapped well in a Hadrami sheet, performing prayer. At that time, there was nothing else on the blessed body of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) except that.
Hadith 2385
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي يَوْمٍ مَطِيرٍ وَهُوَ " يَتَّقِي الطِّينَ إِذَا سَجَدَ بِكِسَاءٍ عليه ، يَجْعَلُهُ دُونَ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ إِذَا سَجَدَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a rainy day; when he would go into prostration, he would spread his cloak on the ground to avoid the mud, and then place his hands on it.
Hadith 2386
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ بَعْضِ أَهْلِهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " يَقْرَأُ فِي رَكْعَتَيْهِ قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ ، وَالْآيَتَيْنِ مِنْ خَاتِمَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى ، وَفِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْآخِرَةِ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْقُرْآنِ ، وَبِالْآيَةِ مِنْ آلِ عِمْرَانَ : قُلْ يَأَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ تَعَالَوْا إِلَى كَلِمَةٍ سَوَاءٍ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ سورة آل عمران آية 64 , حَتَّى يَخْتِمَ الْآيَةَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite, along with Surah Al-Fatihah, the last two verses of Surah Al-Baqarah in the first rak'ah of the Sunnah of Fajr, and in the second rak'ah, along with Surah Al-Fatihah, he would recite this verse from Surah Aal-e-Imran: « ﴿قُلْ يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ تَعَالَوْا إِلَى كَلِمَةٍ سَوَاءٍ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ . . . . .﴾ [آل عمران : 64]» until he completed the verse.
Hadith 2387
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي , عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي دَاوُدُ بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : طَلَّقَ رُكَانَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ يَزِيدَ أَخُو بني مُطَّلِبِ امْرَأَتَهُ ثَلَاثًا فِي مَجْلِسٍ وَاحِدٍ ، فَحَزِنَ عَلَيْهَا حُزْنًا شَدِيدًا ، قَالَ : فَسَأَلَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " كَيْفَ طَلَّقْتَهَا ؟ " , قَالَ : طَلَّقْتُهَا ثَلَاثًا , قَالَ : فَقَالَ : " فِي مَجْلِسٍ وَاحِدٍ ؟ " , قَالَ : نَعَمْ , قَالَ : " فَإِنَّمَا تِلْكَ وَاحِدَةٌ فَارْجِعْهَا إِنْ شِئْتَ " , قَالَ : فَرَجَعَهَا , فَكَانَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَرَى أَنَّمَا الطَّلَاقُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ طُهْرٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Rukanah bin Abd Yazid—who belonged to Banu Muttalib—gave his wife three divorces in a single sitting. Later, he became extremely distressed over this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: "How did you divorce her?" He replied: "I gave her three divorces." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Did you give all three divorces in one sitting?" He replied: "Yes!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then it counts as one. If you wish, you may take her back." So he took her back. For this reason, Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) held the opinion that divorce should be given during each period of purity.
Hadith 2388
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ الْمَكِّيِّ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَمَّا أُصِيبَ إِخْوَانُكُمْ بِأُحُدٍ ، جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَرْوَاحَهُمْ فِي أَجْوَافِ طَيْرٍ خُضْرٍ تَرِدُ أَنْهَارَ الْجَنَّةِ ، تَأْكُلُ مِنْ ثِمَارِهَا ، وَتَأْوِي إِلَى قَنَادِيلَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فِي ظِلِّ الْعَرْشِ ، فَلَمَّا وَجَدُوا طِيبَ مَشْرَبِهِمْ وَمَأْكَلِهِمْ ، وَحُسْنَ مُنْقَلَبِهِمْ ، قَالُوا : يَا لَيْتَ إِخْوَانَنَا يَعْلَمُونَ بِمَا صَنَعَ اللَّهُ لَنَا ، لِئَلَّا يَزْهَدُوا فِي الْجِهَادِ ، وَلَا يَنْكُلُوا عَنِ الْحَرْبِ ، فَقَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : " أَنَا أُبَلِّغُهُمْ عَنْكُمْ " , فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ هَؤُلَاءِ الْآيَاتِ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ وَلا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا سورة آل عمران آية 169 .
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) said: "When your brothers were martyred at the Battle of Uhud, Allah placed their souls in the bodies of green birds, who descend upon the rivers of Paradise, eat from its fruits, and reside in golden lamps under the shade of the Throne. When they saw the excellence of their food and drink, and such a wonderful place for rest, they said: 'If only our brothers could know what Allah has prepared for us, so that they would not lose interest in Jihad and would not turn away from fighting.' Allah said: 'I will convey this message to them.' So Allah revealed these verses of Surah Al-Imran to His Prophet: «﴿وَلَا تَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللّٰهِ أَمْوَاتًا بَلْ أَحْيَاءٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ يُرْزَقُونَ﴾ [آل عمران : 169]»."
