It is reported that Ata did not approve of performing ablution with milk and nabidh and said: tayammum is more my liking (than performing ablution with milk and nabidh).

Jabir said: We set out on a journey. One of our people was hurt by a stone, that injured his head. The then had a sexual dream. He asked his fellow travelers: Do you find a concession for me to perform tayammum? They said: We do not find any concession for you while you can use water. He took a bath and died. When we came to the Prophet ﷺ, the incident was reported to him. He said: They killed him, may Allah kill them! Could they not ask when they did not know ? The fire of ignorance is inquiry. It was enough for him to perform tayammum and to our some drops of water or bind a bandage over the wound (the narrator Musa was doubtful); then he should have wiped over it and washed the rest of his body.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: A man was injured during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; he then had a sexual dream, and he was advised to wash and he washed himself. Consequently he died. When this was reported to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ he said: They killed him; may Allah kill them! Is not inquiry the cure of ignorance?

Aishah said: One of us would have a shirt in which she would menstruate and in it she became sexually defiled. Then if she ever saw any drop of blood in it, she would rub it off by applying her saliva.

Abdullah bin Abbas said: when I was spending a night in the house of my maternal aunt Maimunah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up at night, opened the mouth of the water skin and performed ablution. He then closed the mouth of the water-skin and stood for prayer. Then I got up and performed ablution as he did ; then I came and stood on his left side. He took my hand, turned me round behind his back and set me on his right side; and I prayed along with him.

Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade trailing garments during prayer and that a man should cover his mouth. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has also been narrated by 'Isi on the authority of Ata from Abu Hurairah: The Prophet ﷺ forbade trailing garments during prayer.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ said: The best of you are those whose shoulders are soft in prayer.

Ata said: The back of the saddle is (about) one cubit (in height) or more than that.

Abu Hurairah said: In every prayer there is a recitation. We make you listen what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made us listen, and we keep hidden from you what he kept hidden from us.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: Ata ibn Abu Rabah said: Ibn az-Zubayr led us in the Eid prayer on Friday early in the morning. When we went to offer the Friday, he did not come out to us. So we prayed ourselves alone. At that time Ibn Abbas was present in at-Taif. When he came to us, we mentioned this (incident) to him. He said: He followed the sunnah.

Ata said: The Friday and the ‘id prayers synchronized during the time of Ibn al-Zubair. He said: Two festivals (‘id and Friday) synchronized on the same day. He combined them and offered two rak’ahs in the morning and did not add anything to them until he offered the afternoon prayer.

Jabir said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ seated himself on the pulpit on a Friday he said, Sit down. Ibn Masud heard that and sat down at the door of mosque, and when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him, he said: Come here, Abdullah bin Masud. Abu Dawud said: This tradition is known as mursal (the successor reports directly from the Prophet, omitting then name of the Companion). The people narrated it from the Prophet ﷺ on the authority of Ata. Makhlad is his teacher.

Ata said: When Ibn Umar offered the Friday prayer in Makkah he would go forward and pray two rak'ahs, he would then go forward and pray four rak'ahs; but when he was in Madina, he offered the Friday prayer, then returned to his house and prayed two rak'ahs, not praying them in the mosque. Someone mentioned this to him and he replied that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to do it.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: Ibn Jurayj said: Ata told me that he saw Ibn Umar pray after the Friday prayer. He moved a little from the place where he offered the Friday prayer. Then he would pray two rak'ahs. He then walked far away from that place and would offer four rak'ahs. I asked Ata: How many times did you see Ibn Umar do that? He replied: Many times. Abu Dawud said: This has been narrated by AbdulMalik ibn Abu Sulayman, but did not narrate it completely.

Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: The Prophet ﷺ stood on the day of the breaking of the fast ('Id) and offered prayer. He began the prayer before the sermon. He then addressed the people. When the Prophet ﷺ finished the sermon, he descended (from the pulpit) and went to women. He gave them an exhortation while he was leaning on the hand of Bilal. Bilal was spreading his garment in which women were putting alms; some women put their rings and others other things.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out on Eid (the festival day). He first offered the prayer and then delivered the sermon. He then went to women, taking Bilal with him. The narrator Ibn Kathir said: The probable opinion of Shubah is that he commanded them to give alms. So they began to put (their jewellery).

The above mentioned tradition has also been narrated by Ibn Abbas to the same effect through a different chain of transmitters. This version adds: He (the Prophet) thought that women could not hear (his sermon). So he went to them and Bilal was in his company. He gave them exhortation and commanded them to give alms. Some women put their ear-rings and other their rings in the garment of Bilal.

The above mentioned tradition has also bee transmitted by Ibn Abbas through a different chain of narrators. This version adds: The women began to give their ear-rings and rings in alms. Bilal began to collect them in his garment. He (the Prophet) then distributed them among the poor Muslims.

Narrated Abdullah ibn as-Saib: I attended the Eid prayer along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When he finished the prayer, he said: We shall deliver the sermon; he who likes to sit for listening to it may sit and he who likes to go away may go away. Abu Dawud said: this is a mursal tradition (i. e. the successor Ata directly reporting from the Prophet ﷺ and omitting the link of the Companions).

Narrated Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her): There was an eclipse of the sun in the time of the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet stood for a long time, accompanied by the people. He then bowed, then raised his head, then he bowed and then he raised his head, and again he bowed and prayed two rak'ahs of prayer. In each rak'ah he bowed three times. After bowing for the third time he prostrated himself. He stood for such a long time that some people became unconscious on that occasion and buckets of water had to be poured on them. When he bowed, he said, Allah is most great; and when he raised his head, he said, Allah listens to him who praises Him, till the sun became bright. then he said: The sun and the moon are not eclipsed on account of anyone's death or on account of anyone's birth, but they are two of Allah's signs, He produces dread in His servants by means of them. When they are eclipsed, hasten to prayer

Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah: There was an eclipse of the sun in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had died. The people began to to say that there was an eclipse on account of the death of Ibrahim. The Prophet ﷺ stood up and led the people in prayer performing six bowings and four prostrations. he said: Allah is most great, and then recited from the Quran and prolonged the recitation. He then bowed nearly as long as he stood. He then raised his head and recited from the Quran but it was less than the first (recitation). He then bowed nearly as long as he stood. He then raised his head and then recited from the Quran for the third time, but it was less than the second recitation. He then bowed nearly as long as he stood. he then raised his head and then recited from the Quran for the third time, but it was less than the second recitation. he then bowed nearly as long as he stood. Then he raised his head and went down for prostration. he made two prostrations. He then stood and made three bowings before prostrating himself, the preceding bowing being more lengthy than the following, but he bowed nearly as long as he stood. He then stepped back during the prayer and the rows (of the people) too stepped back along with him. Then he stepped forward and stood in his place, and the rows too stepped forward. he then finished the prayer and the sun had become bright. He said: O people, the sun and the moon are two of Allah's signs; they are not eclipsed on account of a man's death. So when you see anything of that nature, offer prayer until the sun becomes bright. The narrator then narrated the rest of the tradition.

Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Ata ibn Abu Rabah asked Aishah: Can women offer prayer on a riding beast? She replied: They were not permitted to do so in hardship or comfort. Muhammad ibn Shuayb said: This (prohibition) applies to the obligatory prayers.

Narrated Aishah: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was more particular about observing the supererogatory rak'ahs before the dawn prayer than about observing any of the other supererogatory prayers.

This tradition has also been transmitted by Ata bin Abi Rabah on the authority of Saad bin Saeed through a different chain of narrators. Abu Dawud said: Abd Rabbihi and Yahya bin Saeed also narrated this tradition from the Prophet ﷺ omitting the name of the Companion (mursal). Their grandfather Zaid prayed along with the Prophet ﷺ.

Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Ata said: The quilt of Aishah was stolen. She began to curse the person who had stolen it. The Prophet ﷺ began to tell her: Do not lighten him. Abu Dawud said: The meaning of the Arabic words la tasbikhi 'anhu means "do not lessen him or lighten him".

Narrated Umm Salamah, Ummul Muminin: I used to wear gold ornaments. I asked: Is that a treasure (kanz), Messenger of Allah? He replied: whatever reaches a quantity on which zakat is payable is not a treasure (kanz) when the zakat is paid.

Ata said Abu Hurairah was asked Whether a woman could give sadaqah from the house (property) of her husband. He replied `No’. She can give it from her maintenance. The reward will be divided between them. It is not lawful for her to give sadaqah from her husband’s property without his permission. Abu Dawud said This version weakens the version narrated by Hammam (bin Munabbih).

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The people used to trade, in the beginning, at Mina, Arafat, the market place of Dhul-Majaz, and during the season of hajj. But (later on) they became afraid of trading while they were putting on ihram. So Allah, glory be to Him, sent down this verse: "It is no sin for you that you seek the bounty of your Lord during the seasons of hajj. " Ubayd ibn Umayr told me that he (Ibn Abbas) used to recite this verse in his codex.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ said: A menstruating woman and the one who delivered a child should take a bath, put on ihram and perform all the rites of hajj except circumambulation of the House (Kabah) when they came to the place of wearing ihram. Abu Mamar said in his version: "till she is purified". The narrator Ibn Isa did not mention the names of Ikrimah and Mujahid, but he said: from Ata on the authority of Ibn Abbas. Ibn Isa also did not mention the word "all (rites of hajj). " He said in his version: All the rites of hajj except circumambulation of the House (the Kabah).

Jabir bin Abdullah said “We raised our voices in talbiyah along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ exclusively for Hajj, not combining anything with it. When we came to Makkah four days of Dhu al Hijjah had already passed. We the circumambulated (the Kaabah) and ran between Al Safa’ and Al Marwah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then commanded us to put off ihram. He said if I had not brought the sacrificial animals, I would have taken off Ihram. Suraqah bin Malik then stood up and said Messenger of Allah, what do you think, have you provided this facility to us for this year alone or forever? The Messenger of Allah said No, this forever and forever. Al Awza’l said I heard Ata bin Abi Rabah narrating this tradition, but I did not memorize it till I met Ibn Juraij who confirmed it for me.

Jabir said The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions came to Makkah on the fourth of Dhu Al Hijjah. When they circumambulated the Kaabah and ran between al Safa’ and al Marwah the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said Change this (Hajj) into ‘Umrah, except those who have brought the sacrificial animals with them. When the eighth of Dhul Al Hijjah came, they raised their voices in talbiyah for Hall. When the tenth of Dhul Al Hijjah came, they circumambulated the Kaabah, but did not run between al Safa’ and Al Marwah.

Jabir bin Abdullah said The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions raised their voices in talbiyah for Hajj. No one of them had brought the sacrificial animals with them except the Prophet ﷺ and Talhah. Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him) had returned from Yemen and had brought sacrificial animals with him. He said I raised my voice in talbiyah for which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his voice. The Prophet ﷺ commanded his companions to change it into ‘Umrah and clip their hair after running (between Al Safa’ and Al Marwah), and then take off their ihram except those who brought the sacrificial animals with them. They remarked should we go to Mina with our penises dripping with prostatic fluid? These remarks reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Thereupon he said “had I known before hand about my affair what I have come to know later, I would not have brought sacrificial animals. Had I not brought sacrificial animals with me, I would have put off my ihram. “

Ibn Abbas reported the Prophet ﷺ as saying If a man raises his voice in talbiya for Hajj, then he comes to Makkah, goes round the House (the Kaabah) and runs between Al Safa’ and Al Marwah he may take off his ihram. That will be considered as ihram for ‘Umrah. Abu Dawud said Ibn Juraij narrated from a man on the authority of Ata that the companions of the Prophet ﷺ entered Makkah raising their voices in talbiyah for Hajj alone, but the Prophet ﷺ changed it to ‘Umrah.

Al Fadl bin Abbas said The Messenger of Allah ﷺ uttered talbiyah till he threw pebbles at Jamrat Al ‘Aqbah.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet ﷺ said: A person who performs Umrah should shout talbiyah till he touches the Black Stone. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by Abd al-Malik bin Abi Sulaiman and Hammam from Ata on the authority of Ibn Abbas as his own statement (i. e. the tradition was not attributed to the Prophet)

Narrated Yala ibn Umayyah: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ when he was at al-Ji'ranah. He was wearing perfume or the mark of saffron was on him and he was wearing a tunic. He said: Messenger of Allah, what do you command me to do while performing my Umrah. In the meantime, Allah, the Exalted, sent a revelation to the Prophet ﷺ. When he (the Prophet) came to himself gradually, he asked: Where is the man who asking about Umrah? (When the man came) he (the Prophet) said: Wash the perfume which is on you, or he said: (Wash) the mark of saffron (the narrator is doubtful), take off the tunic, then do in your Umrah as you do in your hajj.

This tradition has also been narrated by Yala bin Umayyah through a different chain of narrators. This version adds The Prophet ﷺ said to him “Take off your tunic”. He then took it off from his head. The narrator then narrated the rest of the tradition.

This tradition has also been transmitted by Yala bin Umayyah through a different chain of narrators. This version adds The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded him to take it off (the tunic) and to take a bath twice or thrice. The narrator then transmitted the rest of the tradition.

It is narrated by Yala bin Umayyah that a man came to Prophet ﷺ at Ji’ranah, putting on ihram for ‘Umrah. He had a cloak on him and his beard and head had been dyed.

Ibn Abbas said The Prophet ﷺ had himself cupped when he was in the sacred state (wearing ihram).
