nasai-kubra:4405Qutaybah b. Saʿīd > al-Layth > Yazīd b. Abū Ḥabīb > Abū al-Khayr > Ibn Zarīr > ʿAlī b. Abū Ṭālib

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was present with a she-mule which he rode, so Ali said: If we made asses cover mares we would have animals of this type. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Only those who do not know do that. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2565)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٤٤٠٥أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ عَنِ ابْنِ زَرِيرٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ

أُهْدِيَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بَغْلَةٌ فَرَكِبَهَا فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ لَوْ حَمَلْنَا الْحَمِيرَ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ لَكَانَتْ لَنَا مِثْلَ هَذِهِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّمَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ الَّذِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ»  

nasai-kubra:4406Ḥumayd b. Masʿadah > Ḥammād > Abū Jahḍam > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAbbās

I was with Ibn 'Abbas and a man asked him: "Did the Messenger of Allah recite during Zuhr and 'Asr?" He said: "No." He said: "Perhaps he used to recite to himself?" He said: "May your face be scratched! This question is worse than the first one. The Messenger of Allah was a slave whose Lord commanded him and he conveyed (the message). By Allah, the Messenger of Allah did not specify anything for us above the people, except for three things: He commanded us to perform Wudu' properly, not to consume charity, and not to mate donkeys with horses." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3581)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٤٤٠٦أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ أَبِي جَهْضَمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَسَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ؟ قَالَ لَا قَالَ فَلَعَلَّهُ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي نَفْسِهِ؟ قَالَ خَمْشًا هَذِهِ شَرٌّ مِنَ الْأُولَى إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَبْدٌ أَمَرَهُ اللهُ بِأَمْرِهِ فَبَلَّغَهُ وَاللهِ مَا اخْتَصَّنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِشَيْءٍ دُونَ النَّاسِ إِلَّا بِثَلَاثَةٍ «أُمِرْنَا أَنْ نُسْبِغَ الْوُضُوءَ وَأَنْ لَا نَأْكُلَ الصَّدَقَةَ وَأَنْ لَا نُنْزِي الْحُمُرَ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ»
