Narrated Salim bin ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar:

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.”

Narrated Muhammad bin Jubair bin Mut’im:
My father said, “(Before Islam) I was looking for my camel ..” The same narration is told by a dif –
ferent sub-narrator. Jubair bin Mut’im said, “My camel was lost and I went out in search of it on the
day of ‘Arafat, and I saw the Prophet standing in ‘Arafat. I said to myself: By Allah he is from the
Hums (literally: strictly religious, Quraish were called so, as they used to say, ‘We are the people of
Allah we shall not go out of the sanctuary). What has brought him here?”
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 741:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
We got down at Al-Muzdalifa and Sauda asked the permission of the Prophet to leave (early) be –
fore the rush of the people. She was a slow woman and he gave her permission, so she departed
(from Al-Muzdalifa) before the rush of the people. We kept on staying at Al-Muzdalifa till dawn,

and set out with the Prophet but (I suffered so much that) I wished I had taken the permission of Al –
lah’s Apostle as Sauda had done, and that would have been dearer to me than any other happiness.
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 726:
Narrated ‘Urwa:
During the pre-lslamic period of Ignorance, the people used to perform Tawaf of the Ka’ba naked
except the Hums; and the Hums were Quraish and their offspring. The Hums used to give clothes to
the men who would perform the Tawaf wearing them; and women (of the Hums) used to give
clothes to the women who would perform the Tawaf wearing them. Those to whom the Hums did
not give clothes would perform Tawaf round the Ka’ba naked. Most of the people used to go away
(disperse) directly from ‘Arafat but they (Hums) used to depart after staying at Al-Muzdalifa. ‘Urwa
added, “My father narrated that ‘Aisha had said, ‘The following verses were revealed about the Hums:
Then depart from the place whence all the people depart–(2.199) ‘Urwa added, “They (the Hums)
used to stay at Al-Muzdalifa and used to depart from there (to Mina) and so they were sent to ‘Arafat
(by Allah’s order).”
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 742:
Narrated Abdullah:

Maghrib and the ‘Isha’ together and he offered the morning prayer before its usual time.
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 727:
Narrated ‘Urwa:
Usama was asked in my presence, “How was the speed of (the camel of) Allah’s Apostle while de –
parting from ‘Arafat during the Hajjatul Wada?” Usama replied, “The Prophet proceeded on with a
modest pace, and when there was enough space he would (make his camel) go very fast.”

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 743:
Narrated ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Yazid
I went out with ‘Abdullah , to Mecca and when we proceeded to am’ he offered the two prayers
(the Maghrib and the ‘Isha’) together, making the Adhan and Iqama separately for each prayer. He
took his supper in between the two prayers. He offered the Fajr prayer as soon as the day dawned.
Some people said, “The day had dawned (at the time of the prayer),” and others said, “The day had not
dawned.” ‘Abdullah then said, “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘These two prayers have been shifted from their
stated times at this place only (at Al-Muzdalifa); first: The Maghrib and the ‘Isha’. So the people
should not arrive at Al-Muzdalifa till the time of the ‘Isha’ prayer has become due. The second prayer
is the morning prayer which is offered at this hour.’ ” Then ‘Abdullah stayed there till it became a bit
brighter. He then said, “If the chief of the believers hastened onwards to Mina just now, then he had
indeed followed the Sunna.” I do not know which proceeded the other, his (‘Abdullah’s) statement or
the departure of ‘Uthman . Abdullah was reciting Talbiya till he threw pebbles at the Jamrat-
al-‘Aqaba on the Day of Nahr (slaughtering) (that is the 10th of Dhul-Hijja).
