Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says that there are two statements: one I heard from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the other I say from myself. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever dies in a state while associating partners with Allah, will enter Hell." And I say: Whoever dies in a state while not associating anyone with Allah, will enter Paradise.

Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: None of you should give Satan any power over himself, not even to the extent of a portion, and he should not think that it is necessary for him to return only from the right side. I have seen the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that his return was often from the left side.

(Abdur Rahman bin Yazid says that when Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani, may Allah be pleased with him, performed four rak'ahs in Mina,) Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with him, said: I have performed two rak'ahs in Mina with the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, as well as with Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both. Would that I could have a share in two accepted rak'ahs instead of four.

Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the one who consumes usury, the one who gives it, the one who writes it down, and its witnesses while they are aware, and women who tattoo and get themselves tattooed for the sake of beauty, those who conceal zakat, and the Bedouin who becomes apostate after migration, have been declared accursed by the tongue of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) until the Day of Judgment.

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: "The blood of a Muslim is not lawful except in one of three cases: if he commits adultery after marriage, or if he is killed in retaliation (qisas), or a person who abandons his religion and separates from the community."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is not one of us who strikes his cheeks, tears his collar, and calls with the call of ignorance."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) led the Zuhr prayer and performed five rak'ahs. Someone asked: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! Has there been an addition to the prayer?" The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "No, what happened?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) submitted: "You have performed five rak'ahs." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) folded his legs, turned for salam, and performed two prostrations of forgetfulness (sujood as-sahw).

Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned to the left to say salam, the whiteness of his blessed cheek that became visible seemed as if it is still before my eyes.

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: "The superiority of prayer in congregation over prayer performed alone is twenty-five degrees, and each degree is equal to his prayer."

Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said that Allah has cursed the woman who tattoos, the one who has hair removed by plucking, and the one who files her teeth to make gaps, those who alter Allah's creation, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade this.
