Hazrat Abdullah Ibn E Abbasr.a Kay 100 Qissay By Shaykh Muhammad Awais Sarwar Mohammad Thair Bhatti Chak Qasimka.
When Abdullah (R.A.) reached the age of discretion, he attached himself to the service of the Prophet (S.A.W.). He would run to fetch water for him when he wanted to make wudu. During Salat, he would stand behind the Prophet (S.A.W.) in prayer and when the Prophet (S.A.W.) went on journeys or expeditions, he would follow next in line to him. Abdullah (R.A.) thus became like the shadow of the Prophet (S.A.W.), constantly in his company.
It was narrated that Abdullah Ibn Abbas (R.A.) said:
“The Messenger of Allah embraced me and said: ‘O Allah, teach him wisdom and the (correct) interpretation of the Book.”
The word ‘wisdom’ used in the context of this Hadith means the knowledge of Hadith. Allah, The Glorified, accepted the prayer of His Messenger (S.A.W.) and bestowed upon Ibn Abbas (R.A.) that high position in the exegesis (interpretation) of the Holy Quran such that he has come to be known as the Prince of Exegetes.
