Volume 2 Book 26 Hadith 735

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 735:
Narrated ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Yazid:
‘Abdullah;- performed the Hajj and we reached Al-Muzdalifa at or about the time of the ‘Isha’
prayer. He ordered a man to pronounce the Adhan and Iqama and then he offered the Maghrib
prayer and offered two Rakat after it. Then he asked for his supper and took it, and then, I think, he
ordered a man to pronounce the Adhan and Iqama (for the ‘isha’ prayer). (‘Amr, a sub-narrator said:
The intervening statement ‘I think’, was said by the sub-narrator Zuhair) (i.e. not by ‘Abdu-Rahman).
Then ‘Abdullah offered two Rakat of ‘Isha’ prayer. When the day dawned, ‘Abdullah said, “The Proph –
et never offered any prayer at this hour except this prayer at this time and at this place and on this
day.” ‘Abdullah added, “These two prayers are shifted from their actual times — the Maghrib prayer
(is offered) when the people reached Al-Muzdalifa and the Fajr (morning) prayer at the early dawn.”
‘Abdullah added, “I saw the Prophet doing that.”

Narrated Salim:
‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar used to send the weak among his family early to Mina. So they used to depart
from Al-Mash’ar Al-Haram (that is Al-Muzdalifa) at night (when the moon had set) and invoke Al –
lah as much as they could, and then they would return (to Mina) before the Imam had started from
Al-Muzdalifa to Mina. So some of them would reach Mina at the time of the Fajr prayer and some of

them would come later. When they reached Mina they would throw pebbles on the Jamra (Jamrat-

(the slave of Asma’) During the night of Jam’, Asma’ got down at Al-Muzdalifa and stood up for
(offering) the prayer and offered the prayer for some time and then asked, “O my son! Has the moon
set?” I replied in the negative and she again prayed for another period and then asked, “Has the moon
set?” I replied, “Yes.” So she said that we should set out (for Mina), and we departed and went on till
she threw pebbles at the Jamra (Jamrat-al-Aqaba) and then she returned to her dwelling place and
offered the morning prayer. I asked her, “O you! I think we have come (to Mina) early in the night.”

viated or has declined from the middle of the sky, I and Ibn ‘Umar came and he shouted near the
cotton (cloth) tent of Al-Hajjaj, “Where is he?” Al-Hajjaj came out. Ibn ‘Umar said, “Let us proceed (to
‘Arafat).” Al-Hajjaj asked, “Just now?” Ibn ‘Umar replied, “Yes.” Al-Hajjaj said, “Wait for me till I pour
water on me (i.e. take a bath).” So, Ibn ‘Umar dismounted (and waited) till Al-Hajjaj came out. He was
walking between me and my father. I informed Al-Hajjaj, “If you want to follow the Sunna today,
then you should shorten the sermon and then hurry up for the stay (at ‘Arafat).” Ibn ‘Umar said, “He
(Salim) has spoken the truth.”
