Sahih al-Bukhari 2684 (Book 52, Hadith 45) #2567
Completing the Longer and Better Period

SUMMARY: The hadith is about Prophet Moses and how he completed the longer and better period. It also teaches us that an apostle of Allah always does what he says.

Narrated Sa'id bin Jubair: A Jew from Hira asked me which one of the two periods Musa (ie Prophet Moses) completed. I said, "I don't know, (but wait) till I see the most learned 'Arab and inquire him about it". So, I went to Ibn 'Abbas and asked him. He replied, "Moses completed the longer and better period". Ibn 'Abbas added, "No doubt, an apostle of Allah always does what he says".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ شُجَاعٍ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ الأَفْطَسِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ سَأَلَنِي يَهُودِيٌّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْحِيرَةِ أَىَّ الأَجَلَيْنِ قَضَى مُوسَى قُلْتُ لاَ أَدْرِي حَتَّى أَقْدَمَ عَلَى حَبْرِ الْعَرَبِ فَأَسْأَلَهُ‏.‏ فَقَدِمْتُ، فَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ قَضَى أَكْثَرَهُمَا وَأَطْيَبَهُمَا، إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِذَا قَالَ فَعَلَ‏.‏
