“We said: ‘O Messenger of Allah,
should we not build you a house in Mina that will be a means of shade
for you?’ He said: ‘No, Mina is just a stopping place for those
who
get there first.’”
“We went in the morning on this day
with
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) from Mina to ‘Arafat. Some of us
recited the Takbir (Allahu Akbar) and some of us recited the Tahlil
(La ilaha illallah), and neither criticized the other.”
It was
narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to
stop at ‘Arafat in Namirah Valley. When Hajjaj killed Ibn Zubair,
he sent word to Ibn ‘Umar asking:
“At what hour did the Prophet
(ﷺ) go out on this day?” He said: “When that time comes, we
will go out.” So Hajjah sent a man to watch for the time when they
went out.
When Ibn ‘Umar wanted to set out, he said: “Has the sun passed the zenith?” They said: “It has not passed the zenith yet.” So he sat down. Then he said: “Has the sun passed the zenith?” They said: “It has not passed the zenith yet.” So he sat down. Then he said: “Has the sun passed the zenith?” They said: “Yes.” When they said that it had passed the zenith, he set out.
“We were standing in a
place
that was far from the place of standing. Ibn Mirba’ came to us
and
said: ‘I am the messenger of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) to you.
He said: “Stay where you are today for today you are on the legacy
of
Ibrahim.’”
Chapter 55: The place of standing at `Arafat - كتاب المناسك
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْعُمَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" كُلُّ عَرَفَةَ مَوْقِفٌ وَارْفَعُوا عَنْ بَطْنِ عُرَنَةَ وَكُلُّ الْمُزْدَلِفَةِ مَوْقِفٌ وَارْفَعُوا عَنْ بَطْنِ مُحَسِّرٍ وَكُلُّ مِنًى مَنْحَرٌ إِلاَّ مَا وَرَاءَ الْعَقَبَةِ " .
It was
narrated from Jabir bin ‘Abdullah that the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)
said:
“All of ‘Arafat is the place of standing, but keep away
from the interior of ‘Uranah. And all of Muzdalifah is the place of
standing but keep away from the interior of Muhassir. And all of Mina
is the place of sacrifice, except for what is beyond ‘Aqaba.”
‘Abdullah bin Kinanah bin ‘Abbas bin Mirdas As-Sulami narrated
that
his father told him, from his father, that the Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) prayed for forgiveness for his nation one evening at
‘Arafat,
and the response came:
“I have forgiven them, except for
the
wrongdoer, with whom I will settle the score in favor of the one
whom
he wronged.” He said: “O Lord, if You will, then grant
Paradise to the
one who is wronged, and forgive the wrongdoer.” No
response came (that
evening).The next day at Muzdalifah he repeated
the supplication, and
received a response to what he asked for. He
(the narrator) said: “The
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) laughed,” or
he said, “He smiled. Abu Bakr
and ‘Umar said to him: ‘May my
father and mother be ransomed for you,
this is not a time when you
usually laugh. What made you laugh, may
Allah make your years filled
with laughter?’ He said: ‘The enemy of
Allah, Iblis, when he came
to know that Allah answered my prayer and
forgiven my nation, took
some dust and started to sprinkle it on his
head, uttering cries of
woe and doom, and what I saw of his anguish
made me laugh.’”
It was
narrated from Ibn Musayyab that ‘Aishah said that the
Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) said:
“There is no day on which Allah ransoms
more
slaves from the Fire than the Day of ‘Arafah. He draws closer and
closer, then He boasts about them before the angels and says: ‘What
do
these people want?’”
“I heard ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Ya’mur
Dili say: ‘I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when he was standing
at
‘Arafat, and some people from Najd came to him and said: “O
Messenger
of Allah, what is Hajj?” He said: “Hajj is ‘Arafah.
Whoever comes
before Fajr prayer on the night of Jam’, he has
completed his Hajj.
The days at Mina are three. ‘But whosoever
hastens to leave in two
days, there is no sin on him and whosoever
stays on, there is no sin
on him.’” [2:203] Then he seated a man
behind him on his mount and he
started calling out these words.’”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، - يَعْنِي الشَّعْبِيَّ - عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ مُضَرِّسٍ الطَّائِيِّ، أَنَّهُ حَجَّ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَلَمْ يُدْرِكِ النَّاسَ إِلاَّ وَهُمْ بِجَمْعٍ . قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَنْضَيْتُ رَاحِلَتِي وَأَتْعَبْتُ نَفْسِي وَاللَّهِ إِنْ تَرَكْتُ مِنْ حَبْلٍ إِلاَّ وَقَفْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَهَلْ لِي مِنْ حَجٍّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" مَنْ شَهِدَ مَعَنَا الصَّلاَةَ وَأَفَاضَ مِنْ عَرَفَاتٍ لَيْلاً أَوْ نَهَارًا فَقَدْ قَضَى تَفَثَهُ وَتَمَّ حَجُّهُ " .
It was
narrated from ‘Urwah bin Mudarris At-Ta’i that he performed
Hajj
during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and he did not
catch
up with the people until they were at Jam’ (Al-Muzdalifah). He
said:
“I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: ‘O Messenger of
Allah, I
have made my camel lean (because of the long journey) and I
have worn
myself out. By Allah, there is no sand hill on which I did
not stand.
Have I performed Hajj?’ The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘Whoever
attended the
prayer (i.e., Fajr at Muzdalifah) with us and departed
from ‘Arafat,
by night or day, may remove the dirt and has
completed his Hajj.’”
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَسِيرُ حِينَ دَفَعَ مِنْ عَرَفَةَ قَالَ كَانَ يَسِيرُ الْعَنَقَ فَإِذَا وَجَدَ فَجْوَةً نَصَّ . قَالَ وَكِيعٌ وَالنَّصُّ يَعْنِي فَوْقَ الْعَنَقِ .
It was
narrated from Usamah bin Zaid that he was asked:
“How did the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) travel when he departed from ‘Arafat?”
He
said: “He moved at a quick pace, and when he reached an open
space he
would make his camel run.”
“The Quraish said: ‘We are the
neighbors of the House and we do not leave the sanctuary.’ Allah
said:
‘Then depart from the place whence all the people depart.’”
[2:199]
“I departed from ‘Arafat
with
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and when he reached the mountain
path
at which the chiefs would dismount, he dismounted and urinated,
then
performed ablution. I said: ‘(Is it time for) prayer?’ He said:
‘The prayer is still ahead of you.’ When he reached Jam’
(Muzdalifah)
he called the Adhan and Iqamah, then he prayed Maghrib.
Then no one
among the people unloaded (the camels) until he had
prayed ‘Isha’.”
“We performed Hajj with
‘Umar
bin Khattab, and when we wanted to depart from Muzdalifah, he
said:
‘The idolators used to say: “May the sun rise over you, O
Thabir!* So that we may begin our journey (to Mina),” and they did
not
depart until the sun had risen.’ So the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)
differed from them by departing before the sun rose.”
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) departed during the
Farewell
Pilgrimage in a tranquil manner, and he urged them to be
tranquil. He
told them to throw small pebbles. He hastened through
Muhassir
Valley, and said: ‘Let my nation learn its rites (of Hajj),
for I
do not know, perhaps I will not meet them again after this
year.’”
It was
narrated from Bilal bin Rabah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said to
him, on
the morning of Jama’:
“O Bilal, calm the people down,” or
“make
them be quiet.” Then he said: “Allah has been very gracious to
you in this Jam’ of yours. He has forgiven the wrongdoers among you
because of the righteous among you, and He has given the righteous
among you whatever they ask. Move on in the Name of Allah.”
“We youngsters from the clan of
‘Abdul-Muttalib came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), from Jam’,
on donkeys of ours. He started striking our thighs and saying: ‘O
my sons, do not stone the Pillar until the sun rises.’”
Chapter 62: One who comes from Jam` to Mina to stone the pillars - كتاب المناسك
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ سَوْدَةَ بِنْتَ زَمْعَةَ، كَانَتِ امْرَأَةً ثَبِطَةً فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ أَنْ تَدْفَعَ مِنْ جَمْعٍ قَبْلَ دُفْعَةِ النَّاسِ فَأَذِنَ لَهَا .
It was
narrated from ‘Aishah that Sawdah bint Zam’ah was a slow-
moving
woman, so she asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) for permission
to
depart from Jam’ ahead of the people, and he gave her permission.
Chapter 63: The size of pebbles to be thrown - كتاب المناسك
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ، قَالَتْ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ عِنْدَ جَمْرَةِ الْعَقَبَةِ وَهُوَ رَاكِبٌ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ فَقَالَ
" يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِذَا رَمَيْتُمُ الْجَمْرَةَ فَارْمُوا بِمِثْلِ حَصَى الْخَذْفِ " .
It was
narrated from Sulaiman bin ‘Amr bin Ahwas that his mother
said:
“I
saw the Prophet (saw0 on the Day of Sacrifice, at ‘Aqabah
Pillar,
riding a mule. He said: ‘O people! When you stone the Pillar,
throw
small pebbles.’”
“On the morning of ‘Aqabah,
when
he was atop his she-camel, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
‘Pick
up some pebbles for me.’ So I picked up seven pebbles for him,
suitable for Khadhf.* He began to toss them in his hand, saying:
‘Throw something like these.’ Then he said: ‘O people, beware
of
exaggeration in religious matters for those who came before you
were
doomed because of exaggeration in religious matters.’”
It was
narrated that ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Yazid said:
“When ‘Abdullah
bin
Mas’ud stoned ‘Aqabah Pillar, he went to the bottom of the valley
and turned to face the Ka’bah, with the Pillar on his right hand
side.
Then he threw seven pebbles, saying the Takbir with each one.
Then he
said: ‘From here, by the One besides Whom there is none
worthy of
worship, did the one throw, to whom Surat Al-Baqarah was
revealed.’”
Chapter 64: From where should pebbles be thrown at `Aqabah pillar? - كتاب المناسك
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ، قَالَتْ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ عِنْدَ جَمْرَةِ الْعَقَبَةِ اسْتَبْطَنَ الْوَادِيَ فَرَمَى الْجَمْرَةَ بِسَبْعِ حَصَيَاتٍ يُكَبِّرُ مَعَ كُلِّ حَصَاةٍ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ .
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أُمِّ جُنْدُبٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ بِنَحْوِهِ .
It was
narrated from Sulaiman bin ‘Amr bin Ahwas that his mother
said:
“I
saw the Prophet (ﷺ) on the Day of Sacrifice, at ‘Aqabah
Pillar.
He went to the interior of the valley and threw seven pebbles,
saying
Takbir with each pebble, then he departed.”
