Volume 6, Book 60, Number 46:
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
A man who wants to perform the Hajj (from Mecca) can perform the Tawaf around the Ka’ba as
long as he is not in the state of Ihram till he assumes the Ihram for Hajj. Then, if he rides and pro –
ceeds to ‘Arafat, he should take a Hadi (i.e. animal for sacrifice), either a camel or a cow or a sheep,
whatever he can afford; but if he cannot afford it, he should fast for three days during the Hajj be –
fore the day of ‘Arafat, but if the third day of his fasting happens to be the day of ‘Arafat (i.e. 9th of
Dhul-Hijja) then it is no sin for him (to fast on it). Then he should proceed to ‘Arafat and stay there
from the time of the ‘Asr prayer till darkness falls. Then the pilgrims should proceed from ‘Arafat,
and when they have departed from it, they reach Jam’ (i.e. Al-Muzdalifa) where they ask Allah to
help them to be righteous and dutiful to Him, and there they remember Allah greatly or say Takbir
(i.e. Allah is Greater) and Tahlil (i.e. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah) repeatedly before
dawn breaks. Then, after offering the morning (Fajr) prayer you should pass on (to Mina) for the
people used to do so and Allah said:–
“Then depart from the place whence all the people depart. And ask for Allah’s Forgiveness. Truly!
Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.” (2.199) Then you should go on doing so till you throw
pebbles over the Jamra.

Volume 6, Book 60, Number 25:
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
The law of Qisas (i.e. equality in punishment) was prescribed for the children of Israel, but the
Diya (i.e. blood money was not ordained for them). So Allah said to this Nation (i.e. Muslims):
“O you who believe! The law of Al-Qisas (i.e. equality in punishment) is prescribed for you in
cases of murder: The free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. But if the
relatives (or one of them) of the killed (person) forgive their brother (i.e. the killers something of
Qisas (i.e. not to kill the killer by accepting blood money in the case of intentional murder)—-then
the relatives (of the killed person) should demand blood-money in a reasonable manner and the
killer must pay with handsome gratitude. This is an allevitation and a Mercy from your Lord, (in
comparison to what was prescribed for the nations before you).
So after this, whoever transgresses the limits (i.e. to kill the killer after taking the blood-money)
shall have a painful torment.” (2.178)

Narrated Ibn Abbas:
The Prophet said, “Allah said, ‘The son of Adam tells a lie against me though he has no right to do
so, and he abuses Me though he has no right to do so. As for his telling a lie against Me, it is that he
claims that I cannot recreate him as I created him before; and as for his abusing Me, it is his state –
ment that I have offspring. No! Glorified be Me! I am far from taking a wife or offspring.’ “
