Hadith of Abdullah ibn Abbas (RA), from Ubayy ibn Ka'b (RA)

حديث عبد الله بن عباس، عن أبي بن كعب

Hadith 920:2

Muhammad ibn Bishr al-‘Abdi narrated to us, Mis‘ar narrated to us, from Mus‘ab ibn Shaybah, from Abu Habib ibn Ya‘la ibn Munyah, from Ibn ‘Abbas, who said: A man came to ‘Umar and said: "The hyena has eaten us." Mis‘ar said: meaning the year of drought. ‘Umar asked him: "From whom are you?" He continued to trace his lineage until he knew him, and he was a man of wealth. ‘Umar said: "If a man had a valley or two valleys, he would seek a third one for them." Ibn ‘Abbas said: "And nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust, then Allah turns in forgiveness to whomsoever repents." ‘Umar said to Ibn ‘Abbas: "From whom did you hear this?" He said: "From my father." He said: "When it is morning, come to me." He said: So he returned to Umm al-Fadl and mentioned that to her. She said: "What do you have to do with speaking in the presence of ‘Umar?" Ibn ‘Abbas feared that his father might have forgotten. His mother said: "Perhaps your father has not forgotten." So he went to ‘Umar in the morning, and he had the whip with him. They both went to his father. His father came out to them having performed ablution, and he said: "I had madhy (pre-seminal fluid) discharge, so I washed my penis, or my private part"—Mis‘ar was uncertain. ‘Umar said: "Does that suffice?" He said: "Yes." He said: "Did you hear it from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him?" He said: "Yes." He said: And he asked him about what Ibn ‘Abbas had said, and he confirmed it for him.

حدثنا محمد بن بشر العبدي، حدثنا مسعر ، عن مصعب بن شيبة، عن أبي حبيب بن يعلى بن منية ، عن ابن عباس، قال: جاء رجل إلى عمر، فقال: أكلتنا الضبع، قال مسعر: يعني السنة، قال: فسأله عمر: ممن أنت؟ فما زال ينسبه حتى عرفه، فإذا هو موسر، فقال عمر: "لو أن لامرئ واديا أو واديين، لابتغى إليهما ثالثا ". فقال ابن عباس: "ولا يملأ جوف ابن آدم إلا التراب، ثم يتوب الله على من تاب ". فقال عمر لابن عباس: ممن سمعت هذا؟ قال: من أبي، قال: فإذا كان بالغداة، فاغد علي. قال: فرجع إلى أم الفضل، فذكر ذلك لها، فقالت: وما لك وللكلام عند عمر وخشي ابن عباس أن يكون أبي نسي، فقالت أمه: إن أبيا عسى أن لا يكون نسي. فغدا إلى عمر ومعه الدرة، فانطلقا إلى أبي، فخرج أبي عليهما وقد توضأ، فقال: "إنه أصابني مذي، فغسلت ذكري، أو فرجي "، مسعر شك . فقال عمر: أو يجزئ ذلك؟ قال: نعم. قال: سمعته من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم؟ قال: نعم. قال: وسأله عما قال ابن عباس، فصدقه
