حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ سَالِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فِي شَبَابٍ مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُلْنَا لِشَابٍّ مِنَّا:‏‏‏‏ سَلْ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَأُ فِي الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ ؟ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا. فَقِيلَ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ فَلَعَلَّهُ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ فِي نَفْسِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ خَمْشًا هَذِهِ شَرٌّ مِنَ الْأُولَى كَانَ عَبْدًا مَأْمُورًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏بَلَّغَ مَا أُرْسِلَ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَا اخْتَصَّنَا دُونَ النَّاسِ بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا بِثَلَاثِ خِصَالٍ:‏‏‏‏ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ نُسْبِغَ الْوُضُوءَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَنْ لَا نَأْكُلَ الصَّدَقَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَنْ لَا نُنْزِيَ الْحِمَارَ عَلَى الْفَرَسِ .

I went to Ibn Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما accompanying some youths of Banu Hashim. We said to one of them: Ask Ibn Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما : Did the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم recite (the Quran) in the noon and afternoon prayers? He replied: No. People said to him: Perhaps he might recite the Quran quietly. He said: May your face be scratched (a kind of curse)! This (statement) is worse than the former. He was only a servant (of Allah) receiving Commands from Him. He preached (the divine) message which he brought with him. He did not command anything to us (Banu Hashim) specially excluding other people except three points: he commanded us to perform ablution perfectly, and not to accept charity (sadaqah) and not to make pairing of donkey with horse.
