[Machine] "Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari, Abdullah ibn Qais, ally of the Al-Utbah ibn Rabiah ibn Abd Shams."  

«أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ قَيْسٍ حَلِيفُ آلِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ»  

[Machine] "Abu Musa al-Ash'ari, his name is Abdullah bin Qays bin Sulaim bin Haddar bin Huraith bin Amir bin Bakr bin Amir bin Udhrah bin Wa'il bin Najiyah bin al-Muhajir bin al-Ash'ari. He is a descendant of Udad bin Yashjub bin Ya'rub bin Qahtan. His mother is Tayyiba bintu Wahb bin Atik, and she embraced Islam and died in Madinah. Abu Musa arrived in Makkah and took an oath of allegiance with Abu Uhayha Sa'id bin al-'As, embraced Islam in Makkah, and then migrated to the land of Habasha. After that, he came with the people of the two ships and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to Khaybar."  

«أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ اسْمُهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ قَيْسِ بْنِ سُلَيْمِ بْنِ حَضَّارِ بْنِ حُرَيْثِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ بَكْرِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ عُذْرِ بْنِ وَائِلِ بْنِ نَاجِيَةَ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ وَهُوَ نَبْتُ بْنُ أُدَدَ بْنِ يَشْجُبَ بْنِ يَعْرُبَ بْنِ قَحْطَانَ وَأُمُّ أَبِي مُوسَى طَيْبَةُ بِنْتُ وَهْبِ بْنِ عَتِيكٍ وَقَدْ كَانَتْ أَسْلَمَتْ وَمَاتَتْ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَكَانَ أَبُو مُوسَى قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ فَحَالَفَ أَبَا أُحَيْحَةَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ وَأَسْلَمَ بِمَكَّةَ وَهَاجَرَ إِلَى أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ ثُمَّ قَدِمَ مَعَ أَهْلِ السَّفِينَتَيْنِ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِخَيْبَرَ»  

[Machine] "Abu Musa al-Ash'ari was one of those who migrated to the land of Abyssinia and settled there until the Prophet ﷺ sent them to the Negus, Amr ibn Umaya al-Damri. He carried them in two ships and brought them to him at Khaybar after Hudaybiyyah."  

«كَانَ أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ مِمَّنْ هَاجَرَ إِلَى أَرْضِ الْحَبَشَةِ وَأَقَامَ بِهَا حَتَّى بَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ عَمْرَو بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ الضَّمْرِيَّ فَحَمَلَهُمْ فِي سَفِينَتَيْنِ فَقَدِمَ بِهِمْ عَلَيْهِ بِخَيْبَرَ بَعْدَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ»  

[Machine] "A man who is slender and short."  

«رَجُلٌ خَفِيفُ الْجِسْمِ قَصِيرٌ قَطُّ»  

[Machine] Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari died in the year fifty-two when he was sixty-three years old.  

«مَاتَ أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ سَنَةَ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَلَاثٍ وَسِتِّينَ سَنَةً»  

[Machine] I heard Yahya bin Ma'een saying, "The name of my father, Musa al-Ash'ari, is Abdullah bin Qais."  

سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ مَعِينٍ يَقُولُ «اسْمُ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ قَيْسٍ»  

[Machine] "Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari came to the Prophet ﷺ and the Prophet ﷺ called for the eldest and youngest members of the ship's crew." Abu Amer Al-Ash'ari said, "I am the eldest member of the ship's crew and my son is the youngest." Saeed said, "Among them were Abu Amer, Abu Malik, Abu Musa, and Ka'b bin Asim. I believe they embarked on the expedition."  

«قَدِمَ أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَدَعَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِأَكْبَرِ أَهْلِ السَّفِينَةِ وَأَصْغَرِهِمْ» قَالَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ «أَنَا أَكْبَرُ أَهْلِ السَّفِينَةِ وَابْنِي أَصْغَرُهُمْ» قَالَ سَعِيدٌ «وَكَانَ فِيهِمْ أَبُو عَامِرٍ وَأَبُو مَالِكٍ وَأَبُو مُوسَى وَكَعْبُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ أَظُنُّهُمْ خَرَجُوا بِالْأَبْوَاءِ»  

[Machine] I heard Al-Sha'bi saying, "The judges among the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were six individuals; three in Al-Madinah and three in Al-Kufa. In Al-Madinah, they were Umar, Ubay ibn Ka'b, and Zaid ibn Thabit. In Al-Kufa, they were Ali, Abdullah, and Abu Musa." Al-Shaybani said, "So I asked Al-Sha'bi, 'Is Abu Musa included with them?' He said, 'He was one of the scholars.' Then Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Abbas ibn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Asim al-Shahidi narrated it to me."  

سَمِعْتُ الشَّعْبِيَّ يَقُولُ الْقَضَاءُ فِي سِتَّةِ نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةً بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَثَلَاثَةً بِالْكُوفَةِ فَبِالْمَدِينَةِ عُمَرُ وَأُبَيٌّ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَبِالْكُوفَةِ عَلِيٌّ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَأَبُو مُوسَى قَالَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ فَقُلْتُ لِلشَّعْبِيِّ أَبُو مُوسَى يُضَافُ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ «كَانَ أَحَدَ الْفُقَهَاءِ» فَحَدَّثَنِيهِ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ الشَّهِيدُ ؓ   

[Machine] The knowledge of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ extended to the following individuals: Umar ibn al-Khattab, Ali ibn Abi Talib, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, Ubay ibn Ka'b, Mu'adh ibn Jabal, Zaid ibn Thabit, Abu Darda, and Abu Musa al-Ash'ari. Al-Dhahabi remained silent about them in his summary.  

«انْتَهَى عَلْمُ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِلَى هَؤُلَاءِ النَّفْرِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ وَعَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَأُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ وَأَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ وَأَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص  

[Machine] "By Allah, if you obey Allah and Abdullah bin Qais on the right path, I will guide you on the way."  

«وَاللَّهِ لَئِنْ أَطَعْتُمُ اللَّهَ بَادِيًا وَعَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ ثَانِيًا لَأَحْمِلَنَّكُمْ عَلَى الطَّرِيقَةِ»  

[Machine] I heard Al-Hassan saying, "No rider has ever come to Basra who is better for its people than Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari," according to the condition of Muslim.  

سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ يَقُولُ «مَا قَدِمَ الْبَصْرَةَ رَاكِبٌ خَيْرٌ لِأَهْلِهَا مِنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ» على شرط مسلم  

[Machine] "Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari said, 'Indeed, Ali was the first to embrace Islam with the Messenger of Allah.'"  

أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ «إِنَّ عَلِيًّا أَوَّلَ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ»  

[Machine] Regarding the Prophet ﷺ , Ibn Abbas wrote to him asking about it. Al-Ash'ari wrote to him, "Indeed, you are a man of your time, and I have not heard anything from the Prophet ﷺ about it except that I was with the Prophet ﷺ when he wanted to urinate. He stood up and urinated against a wall there and said, 'Indeed, the Children of Israel used to collect their urine with a qarad (vessel). So, when one of you wants to urinate, let him turn away from his urine.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْهَا فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ إِنَّكَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ زَمَانِكَ وَإِنِّي لَمْ أُحَدِّثْ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِنْهَا بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا أَنِّي كُنْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَبُولَ فَقَامَ إِلَى دَمِثِ حَائِطٍ هُنَاكَ وَقَالَ «إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَانَ إِذَا أَصَابَ أَحَدَهُمُ الْبَوْلُ قَرَضَهُ بِالْمِقْرَاضِ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَبُولَ فَلْيَرْتَدْ لِبَوْلِهِ»  

[Machine] "So, I heard Abu Musa and Abu Mas'ud say to Ammar, 'We have not seen from you in Islam a matter that we dislike more than your hastiness in this matter.' Ammar replied, 'And since the two of you embraced Islam, I have not seen a matter that I dislike more than your delay in it.' Then, they all went out to the mosque together."  

فَسَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُوسَى وَأَبَا مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولَانِ لِعَمَّارٍ «مَا رَأَيْنَا مِنْكَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ أَمْرًا أَكْرَهُ إِلَيْنَا مِنْ تَسَارُعُكَ فِي هَذَا الْأَمْرِ» قَالَ عَمَّارٌ «وَأَنَا مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْكُمَا مُنْذُ أَسْلَمْتُمَا أَمْرًا أَكْرَهُ إِلَيَّ مِنْ إِبْطَائِكُمَا عَنْهُ» ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ جَمِيعًا  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ passed by Abu Musa one night, with Aisha accompanying him. Abu Musa was reciting, so they both stopped and listened to his recitation. After that, they proceeded and when morning came, Abu Musa went to the Prophet ﷺ . The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "I passed by you, O Abu Musa, last night while you were reciting, and we listened to your recitation." Abu Musa said, "O Prophet of Allah, if I had known that it was you, I would have performed a better recitation for you."  

مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِأَبِي مُوسَى ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ وَمَعَهُ عَائِشَةُ وَأَبُو مُوسَى يَقْرَأُ فَقَامَا فَاسْتَمَعَا لِقِرَاءَتِهِ ثُمَّ مَضِيَا فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ أَبُو مُوسَى وَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَرَرْتُ بِكَ يَا أَبَا مُوسَى الْبَارِحَةَ وَأَنْتَ تَقْرَأُ فَاسْتَمَعْنَا لِقِرَاءَتِكَ» فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ لَوْ عَلِمْتُ بِمَكَانِكَ لَحَبَّرْتُ لَكَ تَحْبِيرًا  

[Machine] "That our Islam with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , our migration with him, our struggle with him, and our actions with him will be rewarded to us? And that every action we performed after him, we will be saved from it altogether?" Abu said to his father, "No? By Allah, we have indeed strived after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , we prayed, fasted, and performed many good deeds, and we hope for that (reward)." Abu said to his father, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, I wish that it be rewarded to me, and that everything after that we will be saved from it altogether." I said, "Indeed, your father is better than my father."  

أَنَّ إِسْلَامَنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهِجْرَتَنَا مَعَهُ وَجِهَادَنَا مَعَهُ وَعَمَلَنَا مَعَهُ يُرَدُّ لَنَا؟ وَأَنَّ كُلَّ عَمَلٍ عَمِلْنَاهُ بَعْدَهُ نَجَوْنَا مِنْهُ كَفَافًا رَأْسًا بِرَأْسٍ» قَالَ أَبُوكَ لِأَبِي «لَا؟ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ جَاهَدْنَا بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَصَلَّيْنَا وَصُمْنَا وَعَمِلْنَا خَيْرًا كَثِيرًا وَإِنَّا لَنَرْجُو ذَلِكَ» قَالَ فَقَالَ أَبِي لِأَبِيكَ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوَدِدْتُ أَنَّهُ يُرَدُّ لِي وَأَنَّ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ نَجَوْنَا مِنْهُ رَأْسًا بِرَأْسٍ» قَالَ قُلْتُ إِنَّ أَبَاكَ خَيْرٌ مَنْ أَبِي  

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ appointed Abu Musa on a naval expedition. While they were sailing in the sea at night, a caller above them called out to them, 'Shall I inform you about a decree that Allah has ordained for Himself? Whoever is thirsty for the sake of Allah on a hot day, indeed it is the right of Allah to quench his thirst on the Day of Great Thirst.'"  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ اسْتَعْمَلَ أَبَا مُوسَى عَلَى سَرِيَّةِ الْبَحْرِ» فَبَيْنَا هِيَ تَجْرِي بِهِمْ فِي الْبَحْرِ فِي اللَّيْلِ إِذْ نَادَاهُمْ مُنَادٍ مِنْ فَوْقِهِمْ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِقَضَاءٍ قَضَاهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَنَّهُ مَنْ يَعْطَشْ لِلَّهِ فِي يَوْمٍ صَائِفٍ فَإِنَّ حَقًّا عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يَسْقِيَهُ يَوْمَ الْعَطَشِ الْأَكْبَرِ
