Volume 4, Book 52, Number 41:
Narrated Abdullah bin Masud:
I asked Allah’s Apostle, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is the best deed?” He replied, “To offer the prayers
at their early stated fixed times.” I asked, “What is next in goodness?” He replied, “To be good and du –
tiful to your parents.” I further asked, what is next in goodness?” He replied, “To participate in Jihad
in Allah’s Cause.” I did not ask Allah’s Apostle anymore and if I had asked him more, he would have
told me more.
Volume 3, Book 43, Number 658:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Masud:
The Prophet entered Mecca and (at that time) there were three hundred-and-sixty idols around
the Ka’ba. He started stabbing the idols with a stick he had in his hand and reciting: “Truth (Islam)
has come and Falsehood (disbelief) has vanished.”
Volume 3, Book 41, Number 599:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud:
Allah’s Apostle said, “Whoever takes a false oath so as to take the property of a Muslim (illegally)
will meet Allah while He will be angry with him.” Al-Ash’ath said: By Allah, that saying concerned
me. I had common land with a Jew, and the Jew later on denied my ownership, so I took him to the
Prophet who asked me whether I had a proof of my ownership. When I replied in the negative, the
Prophet asked the Jew to take an oath. I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! He will take an oath and deprive me
of my property.” So, Allah revealed the following verse: “Verily! Those who purchase a little gain at
the cost of Allah’s covenant and their oaths.” (3.77)
Volume 3, Book 40, Number 546:
Narrated ‘Abdullah (bin Mas’ud):
The Prophet said, “Whoever takes a false oath to deprive somebody of his property will meet Allah
while He will be angry with him.” Allah revealed: ‘Verily those who purchase a little gain at the cost
of Allah’s covenant, and their oaths.’ ……..(3.77)
Al-Ash’ath came (to the place where ‘Abdullah was narrating) and said, “What has Abu ‘Abdur-
Rahman (i.e. Abdullah) been telling you? This verse was revealed concerning me. I had a well in the
land of a cousin of mine. The Prophet asked me to bring witnesses (to confirm my claim). I said, ‘I
don’t have witnesses.’ He said, ‘Let the defendant take an oath then.’ I said, ‘O Allah’s Apostle! He will
take a (false) oath immediately.’ Then the Prophet mentioned the above narration and Allah revealed
the verse to confirm what he had said.” (See Hadith No. 692)
Volume 3, Book 34, Number 359:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud:
Whoever buys a sheep which has not been milked for a long time, has the option of returning it
along with one Sa of dates; and the Prophet forbade going to meet the seller on the way (as he has no
knowledge of the market price and he may sell his goods at a low price).

Volume 2, Book 22, Number 294:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Masud:
We used to say the greeting, name and greet each other in the prayer. Allah’s Apostle heard it and
said:–“Say, ‘At-tahiyyatu lil-lahi was-salawatu wat-taiyibatu . Assalamu ‘Alaika aiyuha-n-Nabiyu
wa-rahmatu-l-lahi wa-barakatuhu. _ Assalamu alaina wa-‘ala ‘ibadi-l-lahi as-salihin.. Ashhadu an
la ilaha illa-l-lah wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan ‘abdu hu wa Rasuluh. (All the compliments are
for Allah and all the prayers and all the good things (are for Allah). Peace be on you, O Prophet, and
Allah’s mercy and blessings (are on you). And peace be on us and on the good (pious) worshipers of
Allah. I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is His slave
and Apostle.) So, when you have said this, then you have surely sent the greetings to every good (pi –
ous) worship per of Allah, whether he be in the Heaven or on the Earth . “
Volume 2, Book 19, Number 173:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Masud:
The Prophet recited Suratan-Najm (103) at Mecca and prostrated while reciting it and those who
were with him did the same except an old man who took a handful of small stones or earth and lif –
ted it to his forehead and said, “This is sufficient for me.” Later on, I saw him killed as a non-believer.
