Once, Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted in the court of the Messenger: O Messenger of Allah! Your uncle Abu Talib used to defend you a lot, what benefit did he receive because of you? He replied: "He is in the upper part of Hell; if it were not for me, he would have been in the lowest level of Hell."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a person prostrates, seven bones prostrate with him: the face, both hands, both feet, and both knees."

The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

Once, Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! I am your uncle, I have become old and my time of death is near. Teach me a supplication through which Allah may grant me benefit." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Abbas! You are indeed my uncle, but I cannot be of any help to you in the matter of Allah. However, you should keep asking your Lord for pardon and well-being in this world and the Hereafter." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times. Then, Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) came again after a year, and even then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught him the same supplication.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the valley of Batha when a cloud passed by. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you know what this is?" We said: It is called sahab (cloud). He said: "Is it also called muzn?" We said: Yes, it is also called muzn. Then he said: "Is it also called 'anan?" At this, we remained silent. Then he said: "Do you know what the distance is between the sky and the earth?" We said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: "The distance between the sky and the earth is five hundred years, and likewise, the distance between each heaven and the next is five hundred years, and the thickness of each heaven is five hundred years. Then above the seventh heaven is a sea, the surface and depth of which is the distance between the earth and the sky. Then above that are eight mountain goats, the distance between their knees and hooves is as much as the distance between the earth and the sky. Then above that is the Throne ('Arsh), the distance between its upper and lower parts is as much as the distance between the earth and the sky. And above all is Allah, Blessed and Exalted, from whom no deed of the children of Adam is hidden."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I submitted in the presence of the Messenger: O Messenger of Allah! When the people of Quraysh meet each other, they meet with very cheerful faces, but when they meet us, they do so like strangers? Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) became very displeased and said: "By Him in Whose hand is my soul, faith cannot enter a person's heart until he loves you for the sake of Allah and His Messenger."
