161 16386 Sahih Muslim 45 6483 The Book Pertaining to the Merits of the Companions (Allah Be Pleased With Them) of the Holy Prophet - كتاب فضائل الصحابة رضى الله تعالى عنهم "30170 20173 20020 11049 20327" حدثنا محمد بن المثنى، وابن، بشار - واللفظ لابن المثنى - قالا حدثنا محمد، بن جعفر حدثنا شعبة، عن أبي إسحاق، قال سمعت أبا الأحوص، قال شهدت أبا موسى وأبا مسعود حين مات ابن مسعود فقال أحدهما لصاحبه أتراه ترك بعده مثله فقال إن قلت ذاك إن كان ليؤذن له إذا حجبنا ويشهد إذا غبنا ‏.‏ Abu Ishaq reported that he heard Abu'l-Ahwas say: I was along with Abu Musa and Abu Mas'ud as Ibn Mas'ud died and one of them said to the other: Do you find one like him besides him? Thereupon he said: Do you say this (no one can be his rival)? He was admitted (to the company of the Holy Prophet) whereas we were detained and he had been present in the company of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) whereas we had been absent.
