Utbah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) died in 44 AH

Yahya bin Bukayr said: Utbah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) died in the year 44 AH, and only one hadith is narrated from him.

Awn bin Abdullah bin Utbah narrates through his father from his grandfather (Utbah bin Mas'ud) that a woman came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with a black slave-girl and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I am obliged to free a believing neck (slave), so will this one suffice on my behalf?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the slave-girl: "Who is your Lord?" She said: "My Lord is Allah." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is your religion?" She said: "Islam." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Who am I?" She said: "You are the Messenger of Allah." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Do you pray the five prayers and affirm what I have brought from Allah?" She said: "Yes." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) patted her on the back and said: "Free her." Abdullah bin Utbah bin Mas'ud lived in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and heard (hadith) from him (peace and blessings be upon him).

Hamzah bin Abdullah bin Utbah said: I asked my father, Abdullah bin Utbah bin Mas'ud: "What do you remember of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said: "I remember that he (peace and blessings be upon him) took hold of me when I was five or six years old, then sat me in his lap, passed his hand over my head, and prayed for blessing for me and for my descendants."
