Narrated Ibn Abbas: To the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought man wearing ihram who was thrown by his she-camel and has his neck broken and had died. He then said: Shroud him in his two garments, was him with water and lotus leaves, but do not cover his head, for he will be raised on the Day of Resurrection saying the talbiyah. Abu Dawud said: I heard Ahmad bin Hanbal say: There are five rules of the law (sunan) in this tradition: "Shroud him in his two garment, " that is, the dead should be shrouded in his two garments. "Wash him with water and lotus leaves, " that is, washing all times should be with lotus leaves. Do not bring any perfume near him. The shroud will be made from the property (of the dead).

The Prophet ﷺ said: Do not adjure.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: A woman made a voyage and vowed that she would fast one month if Allah made her reach her destination with peace and security.

Hadith 3310
Narrated Ibn Abbas: A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said (to him) that one month's fast was due from her mother who had died. May I fulfill them on her behalf?

Hadith 3322
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ said: If anyone takes a vow but does not name it, its atonement is the same as that for an oath, if anyone takes a vow to do an act of disobedience, its atonement is the same as that for an oath, if anyone takes a vow he is unable to fulfill, its atonement is the same as that for an oath, but if anyone takes a vow he is able to fulfill, he must do so.

Hadith 3328
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: A man seized his debtor who owed ten dinars to him. He said to him: I swear by Allah, I shall not leave you until you pay off (my debt) to me or bring a surety. The Prophet ﷺ stood as a surety for him. He then brought as much (money) as he promised. The Prophet ﷺ asked: From where did you acquire this gold? He replied: From a mine. He said: We have no need of it; there is no good in it. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ paid (the debt) on his behalf.
Hadith 3344
A similar tradition has also been transmitted by Ibn Abbas though a different chain of narrators. This version says: "He (the Prophet) purchased a calf from a caravan, but he had no money with him.

Narrated Ibn Abbas: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ conquered Khaibar, and stipulated that all the land, gold and silver would belong to him. The people of Khaibar said: we know the land more than you ; so give it to us on condition that you should have half of the produce and we would have the half. He then gave it to them on that condition. When the time of picking the fruits of the palm-trees came, he sent Abdullah bin Rawahah to them, and he assessed the among of the fruits of the palm-trees. This is what the people of Madina call khars (assessment). He used to say: In these palm-trees there is such-and-such amount (of produce). They would say: You assessed more to us, Ibn Rawahah (than the real amount). He would say: I first take the responsibility of assessing the fruits of the palm-trees and give you half of (the amount) I said. They would say: This is true, and on this (equity) stand the heavens and the earth. We agreed that we should take (the amount which) you said.
Hadith 3423
Narrated Ibn Abbas: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ got him self cupped and gave the cupper his wages. Had he considered it impure, he would not have given it (wage) to him.

Narrated Ibn Abbas: I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sitting neat the Black stone (or at a corner of the Kabah). He said: He (the Prophet) raised his eyes towards the heaven, and laughed, and he said: May Allah curse the Jews! He said this three times. Allah declared unlawful for them the fats (of the animals which died a natural death); they sold them and they enjoyed the price they received for them. When Allah declared eating of thing forbidden for the people, He declares it price also forbidden for them. The version of Khalid bin Abdullah al-Tahhan does not have the words "I saw". It has: "May Allah destroy the Jews!"
Hadith 3496
Narrated Ibn Abbas: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: If anyone buys grain, he should not sell it until he measures it. Abu Bakr added in his version: I asked Ibn Abbas: Why ? He replied: Do you not see that they sell (grain) for gold, but the grain is still with the seller.

Hadith 3539
Narrated Abdullah Ibn Umar ; Abdullah Ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ said: It is not lawful for a man to make a donation or give a gift and then take it back, except a father regarding what he gives his child. One who gives a gift and then takes it back is like a dog which eats and vomits when it is full, then returns to its vomit.
Hadith 3576
Ibn Abbas said: "If any do fail to judge (by the light of) what Allah has revealed, they are (no better than) unbelievers" up to "wrongdoers. " These three verses were revealed about the Jews, particularly about Quraizah and al-Nadir.
Hadith 3590
Ibn Abbas said: The Quranic verse: "If they do come to thee, either judge between them, or decline to interfere" was abrogated by the verse: "So judge between them by what Allah hath revealed. "
Hadith 3591
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: When this verse was revealed: "If they do come to thee, either judge between them, or decline to interfere. . . . If thou judge, judge in equity between them. " Banu an-Nadir used to pay half blood-money if they killed any-one from Banu Qurayzah. When Banu Qurayzah killed anyone from Banu an-Nadir, they would pay full blood-money. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made it equal between them.

Narrated Abdullah Ibn Abbas: A man from Banu Sahm went out with Tamim ad-Dari and Adi ibn BAdda. The man of Banu Sahm died in the land where no Muslim was present. When they returned with his inheritance, they (the heirs) did not find a silver cup with lines of gold (in his property). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ administered on oath to them. The cup was then found (with someone) at Makkah. They said: We have bought it from Tamim and Adi. Then two men from the heirs of the man of Banu Sahm got up and swore saying: Our witness is more reliable than their witness. They said that the cup belonged to their man. He (Ibn Abbas) said: The following verse was revealed about them: "O ye who believe! when death approaches any of you. . . . . "
