'Amr ibn Wahb said, "I saw Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah ibn Usayd riding
when he was in ihram. He placed his garment on his shoulder and he placed
it on his thighs. I said, 'What is this?' He replied, 'I saw 'Abdullah
act like this.'"
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ الْبَدْوِ قُلْتُ: وَهَلْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَبْدُو؟ فَقَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، كَانَ يَبْدُو إِلَى هَؤُلاَءِ التِّلاعِ.
Shurayh said, "I asked 'A'isha about going out to the desert. I
said, 'Did the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, go out
to the desert?' 'Yes,' she replied, 'Yes, he went out to those hillside
streams.'"
'Abdullah ibn 'Abdu'r-Rahman ibn 'Abdu'l-Qari reported that 'Umar
ibn al-Khattab and an Ansari man were sitting together when 'Abdu'r-Rahman
ibn 'Abdu'l-Qari came and sat with them. 'Umar said, "We do not want to
stop our conversation." 'Abdu'r-Rahman said, "I will not sit with those
people, Amir al-Mu'minin." 'Umar said, "Sit with so-and-so and so-and-so
and do not stop our conversation. Then he asked the Ansari, "Who do you
think should be the khalif after me?" The Ansari counted off some men among
the Muhajirun, but did not mentioned 'Ali. 'Umar asked, "What do they have
against Abu'l-Hasan (i.e. 'Ali)? By Allah, if he were in charge of them,
he would be the best suited to set them on the Path of the Truth."
Thawban said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, told me, 'Do not live the suburbs. The person who lives
in the suburbs is like someone who lives in the graves.'"
