حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ أَخْبَرَنِي، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ: قُلْنَا لِحُذَيْفَةَ: أَخْبِرْنَا بِرَجُلٍ قَرِيبِ السَّمْتِ وَالْهَدْيِ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى نَأْخُذَ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: " مَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا أَقْرَبَ سَمْتًا وَهَدْيًا وَدَلًّا بِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، حَتَّى يُوَارِيَهُ جِدَارُ بَيْتِهِ مِنْ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ "، وَلَمْ نَسْمَعْ هَذَا مِنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ: لَقَدْ عَلِمَ الْمَحْفُوظُونَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ ابْنَ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ مِنْ أَقْرَبِهِمْ إِلَى اللهِ وَسِيلَةً، (١)، ،
Translation
English translation
Abdur Rahman bin Yazid says that once we went to Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) and said to him, "Tell us of a person who is the closest to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in manners and character, so that we may learn these ways from him and listen to his words." He replied, "The one who was closest to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in manners and character was Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), to the extent that he would sit in his house hiding from me, even though the trusted companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) know that Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was the closest of all to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)."
