It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Adhere to truthfulness, for truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. A person continues to speak the truth and strives for truthfulness until he is recorded with Allah as a truthful one (Siddiq). And beware of lying, for lying leads to sin, and sin leads to the Fire. A person continues to lie and pursues falsehood until he is recorded with Allah as a liar (Kadhdhab)."

It will be said: 'You do not know what new things they invented after you.'"

He said: "Fulfill the duties that are obligatory upon you and ask Allah for your rights."

Harithah bin Mudarrib narrates that once Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Ibn Nawahah, "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say about you: 'If you were not a messenger, I would have killed you.'"

Yasir bin Jabir says that once a red wind blew in Kufa. A man came to Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), whose only call was: "O Abdullah bin Mas'ud! Has the Hour drawn near?" At that time, Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was reclining on a pillow. Hearing this, he sat up straight and said: "The Hour will not be established until inheritance is no longer distributed and there is no joy over war booty. There will be an enemy who will gather his forces against the Muslims, and the Muslims will gather their forces against them . . . . . " Then the narrator mentioned the entire hadith, and at the end said: "A caller will come and say: 'The Dajjal has entered among your children from behind you.' So, upon hearing this, they will throw away everything they have and turn towards the Dajjal, and they will send ten horsemen as a vanguard. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'I know their names, the names of their fathers, and the colors of their horses. At that time, they will be the best horsemen on earth.'"

Sayyiduna Ibn Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I did not feel any barrier regarding whispering, nor regarding such and such thing.

I found him narrating at the end of the hadith: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! You can see how many camels have come into my share. I do not want anyone to surpass me by even two or four straps in this number. Is this arrogance? He said:“This is not arrogance. Arrogance is that a person rejects the truth and looks down upon people.”
