Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 12, Hadith 55

It was narrated that Abdullah bin Mas’ud said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say the takbir every time he went down and came up, and he would say the Salam to his right and his left. And Abu Bakr and ‘Umar used to do likewise.”

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذٌ، وَيَحْيَى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، وَالأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُكَبِّرُ فِي كُلِّ خَفْضٍ وَرَفْعٍ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ – رضى الله عنهما – يَفْعَلاَنِهِ ‏.‏

Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 12, Hadith 55

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Sunan an-Nasa’i stands as one of the six canonical collections of hadith, known as the Kutub al-Sittah, which are foundational to Sunni Islamic jurisprudence and theology. This significant work was compiled by the esteemed 9th-century scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i. The collection is distinguished by its author’s meticulous and rigorous methodology, which involved a stringent process for verifying the authenticity of each narration. By deliberately excluding traditions he deemed weak or fabricated, al-Nasa’i created a compilation of over 5,700 hadiths that is highly respected for its reliability and its focused emphasis on the authentic sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad.
