(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزيِدَ ، وَيُونُسُ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْفُرَاتِ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَعْيَنِ الْعَبْدِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ الْجُشَمِيِّ ، قَالَ : بَيْنَمَا ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ يَخْطُبُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ بِحَيَّةٍ تَمْشِي عَلَى الْجِدَارِ ، فَقَطَعَ خُطْبَتَهُ ، ثُمَّ ضَرَبَهَا بِقَضِيبِهِ ، أَوْ بِقَصَبَةٍ قَالَ يُونُسُ : بِقَضِيبِهِ حَتَّى قَتَلَهَا ، ثُمّ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " مَنْ قَتَلَ حَيَّةً ، فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ رَجُلًا مُشْرِكًا قَدْ حَلَّ دَمُهُ " .
Abu Al-Ahwas Al-Jashami reports that one day Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was delivering a sermon, when suddenly his gaze fell upon a snake crawling on the wall. He stopped his speech and struck it with his staff until it died. Then he said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say, "Whoever kills a snake, it is as if he has killed a polytheist whose blood is lawful."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Are these monkeys and pigs from among the descendants of the Jews?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "Whenever Allah cursed a people and transformed their forms, He did not leave any offspring of theirs after destroying them. Rather, this creation already existed before; when Allah's wrath descended upon the Jews and He transformed their forms, He made them like these."

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ بْنَ يُونُسَ ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ مَوْلَى الْهَمْدَانِيِّ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ زَائِدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ : " لَا يُبَلِّغْنِي أَحَدٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِي شَيْئًا ، فَإِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَنَا سَلِيمُ الصَّدْرِ " ، قَالَ : وَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَالٌ ، فَقَسَمَهُ ، قَالَ : فَمَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلَيْنِ ، وَأَحَدُهُمَا يَقُولُ لِصَاحِبِهِ : وَاللَّهِ مَا أَرَادَ مُحَمَّدٌ بِقِسْمَتِهِ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ ، وَلَا الدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ ، فَتَثَبَّتُّ ، حَتَّى سَمِعْتُ مَا قَالَا ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّكَ قُلْتَ لَنَا : " لَا يُبَلِّغْنِي أَحَدٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِي شَيْئًا " ، وَإِنِّي مَرَرْتُ بِفُلَانٍ وَفُلَانٍ ، وَهُمَا يَقُولَانِ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، قَالَ : فَاحْمَرَّ وَجْهُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَشَقَّ عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " دَعْنَا مِنْكَ ، فَقَدْ أُوذِيَ مُوسَى أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، ثُمَّ صَبَرَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to his companions (may Allah be pleased with them): "No person should come to me with news about any of my companions, because I wish that when I come to you, my heart is completely clean towards each one of you." Once, some wealth came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) from somewhere, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) distributed it. I passed by two men, and one of them said to the other, "By Allah! This distribution is such that neither Allah's pleasure nor the home of the Hereafter is intended by it." I listened carefully to what they said and came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! You have said, 'No person should come to me with news about any of my companions.' Just now, I passed by such and such men, and they were saying this." Upon this, the blessed face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned red, then he said: "May Allah's mercy descend upon Musa; he was troubled even more than this, but he remained patient."
Hadith 3760
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ ، وَحَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ زِرٍّ ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : أَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَإِذَا النَّاسُ يَنْتَظِرُونَ الصَّلَاةَ ، قَالَ : " أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ أَهْلِ هَذِهِ الْأَدْيَانِ أَحَدٌ يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ غَيْرُكُمْ " ، قَالَ : وَأَنْزَلَ هَؤُلَاءِ الْآيَاتِ : لَيْسُوا سَوَاءً مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ حَتَّى بَلَغَ وَمَا يَفْعَلُوا مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلَنْ يُكْفَرُوهُ وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِالْمُتَّقِينَ سورة آل عمران آية 113 - 115 .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delayed the 'Isha prayer considerably. Then, when he came out towards the mosque, he found the people waiting for the prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "At this moment, there is no one on the face of the earth remembering Allah from any religion except you." And on this occasion, these verses were revealed: «﴿لَيْسُوا سَوَاءً مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ . . . . . وَمَا يَفْعَلُوا مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلَنْ يُكْفَرُوهُ وَاللّٰهُ عَلِيمٌ بِالْمُتَّقِينَ﴾ [آل عمران : 113-115]» "They are not all alike among the People of the Book... And whatever good you do, it will not be denied you, and Allah knows well the pious."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that Ibn Nawahah and Ibn Athal came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as messengers from Musaylimah the Liar. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked both of them: "Do you both testify that I am the Messenger of Allah?" They replied, "We testify that Musaylimah is the Messenger of Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If I were to kill messengers, I would have beheaded both of you." From that time, it became customary that messengers are not killed.

Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) camped at a place and went to relieve himself. When he returned, he saw that someone had set fire to an anthill on the ground or on a tree. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "Who has done this?" A man replied, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I did it." He said, "Extinguish this fire, extinguish this fire."

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Abdullah! Do you have water with you?" He replied that he had nabidh in a vessel. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Pour it over my hands." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution with it and said: "O Abdullah bin Mas'ud! This is both a drink and purifying."

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ ، وَأَبُو النَّضْرِ ، وأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ ، قَالُوا : حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، عَنْ صَفْقَتَيْنِ فِي صَفْقَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ " قَالَ أَسْوَدُ قَالَ شَرِيكٌ : قَالَ سِمَاكٌ : الرَّجُلُ يَبِيعُ الْبَيْعَ ، فَيَقُولُ هُوَ بِنَسَاءٍ بِكَذَا وَكَذَا ، وَهُوَ بِنَقْدٍ بِكَذَا وَكَذَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade combining two transactions in one matter. The narrator explains its meaning as: that a person says, "This item is for such-and-such price if bought on credit, and for such-and-such price if paid in cash."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Islam began as something strange and it will soon return to being strange as it began, so glad tidings are for the strangers." Someone asked: Who are the strangers? He replied: "Those who are drawn out from the tribes."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that there was a man who, apart from affirming the Oneness of Allah, had never performed any good deed. When his death approached, he said to his family: "When I die, seize me and burn me, then when I have been burnt and turned to coal, crush me, then on a day when a strong wind is blowing, scatter me in the sea." His family did as he had instructed, but he was still within Allah's grasp. Allah asked him: "What made you do this?" He replied: "Your fear." Upon this, Allah forgave him.
