Hadith 231
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَنَا عُيَيْنَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، نُعِيَ إِلَيْهِ أَخُوهُ قُثَمٌ وَهُوَ فِي مَسِيرٍ، فَاسْتَرْجَعَ، ثُمَّ تَنَحَّى عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ أَطَالَ فِيهِمَا الْجُلُوسَ، ثُمَّ قَامَ يَمْشِي إِلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: { وَاسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلاةِ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلا عَلَى الْخَاشِعِينَ } .
When Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) was informed of the death of his brother Qutham while he was on a journey, he recited «إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ», then moved aside from the road and performed two units of prayer, in which he sat for a long time. Then, as he walked towards his mount, he kept reciting this verse: "And seek help through patience and prayer, and indeed, it is difficult except for the humbly submissive."
Hadith 232
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا هُشَيْمٌ، نَا خَالِدُ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: نُعِيَ إِلَيْهِ ابْنٌ لَهُ وَهُوَ يَسِيرُ فِي سَفَرٍ، فَنَزَلَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ اسْتَرْجَعَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: فَعَلْنَا كَمَا أَمَرَنَا اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، ثُمَّ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: { اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلاةِ } .
When Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) was informed of his son's death during a journey, he dismounted from his ride and performed two units of prayer, then recited «إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ», and said: We have done what Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has commanded us to do. Then he recited this verse: ﴿وَاسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَاةِ﴾ "Seek help through patience and prayer."
