Hadith Imam Muslim about The Book of Pilgrimage (Kitab Al-Hajji)
Book 007, Number 2794:
Jabir (Radiallahuan) said.: We went with Allah's Messenger (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) in 'a state of Ihram for the Hajji. There were women and children with us. When we reached Mecca we circumambulated the House and (ran) between al-Safa and al-Marwa. The Messenger of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) said: He who has no sacrificial animal with him should put off lhram. We said: What kind of putting off? He said: Getting out of lhram completely. So we came to our wives, and put on our clothes and applied perfume. When it was the day of Tarwiya, we put on Ihram for Hajji. and the first circumambulation and (running) between al-Safa and al-Marwa sufficed us.. Allah's Messenger (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) commanded us to become seven partners (in the sacrifice) of a camel and a cow.
Jabir b. Abdullah reported that the Apostle of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) ordered us to put on Ihram (again) as we proceeded towards Mina after we had put it off (i. e. 'on the 8th of Dzulhijjah). So we pronounced Talbiya at al-Abtah.
Jabir b. Abdullah is reported to have said: Neither Allah's Apostle (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) nor his Companions (circumambulated the Ka'ba and) ran between al-Safa and al-Marwa but once (sufficing both for Hajji and 'Umroh). But in the hadith transmitted by Muhammad b. Bakr there is an addition:" That is first circumambu- lation."
'Ata'reported: I, along with some people, heard Jabir b. 'Abdullah saying: We the Companions of Muhammad (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) put on Ihram for Hajji only. Ata' further said that Jabir stated: Allah's Apostle (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) came on the 4th of Dzulhijjah and he commanded us to put off Ihram. 'Ata'said that he (Allah's Apostle) commanded them to put off Ihram and to go to their wives (for inter- course). 'Ata' said: It was not obligatory for them, but (intercourse) with them had become permissible. We said: When only five days had been left to reach 'Arafa, he (the Holy Prophet) commanded us to have intercourse with our wives. And we reached 'Arafa in a state as if we had just intercoursed (with tbem). He ('Ata') said: Jabir pointed with his hand and I (perceive) as if I am seeing his hand as it moved. In the (meantime) the Apostle of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) stood amongst us and said: You are well aware that I am the most God-fearing, most truthful and most pious amongst you. And if there were not sacrificial animals with me, I would also have put off Ihram as you have put off. And if I were to know this matter of mine what I have come to know later on. I would not have brought sacrificial animals with me. SO they (the Companions) put. olf Ihrim and we also put off and listened to (the Holy Prophet) and obeyed (his command). Jabir said: 'All came with the revenue of the taxes (from Yemen). He (the Holy Prophet) said: For what (purpose) have you entered into the state of Ihram (whether you entered into the state purely for Hajji and, Umroh jointly or Hajji and Umroh separately)? He said: For the purpose for which the Apostle of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) had entered. (The Holy Prophet had entered as a Qiran, i. e. Ihram covering both Umroh and Hajji simultaneously.) Thereupon Allah's Messenger (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) said: Offer a sacrifice of animal, and retain Ihram. And 'All brought a sacrificial animal for him (for the Holy Prophet). Suraqa b. Malik b. Ju'shum said: Messenger of Allah, is it (this concession putting off Ihram of Hajji or Umroh) meant for this year or is it for ever?. He said: It is for ever.
Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported: We entered with the Messenger of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) in the state of Ihram for Hajji. When we came to Mecca he commanded us to put off Ihrim and make it for 'Umroh. We felt It (the command) hard for us, and our hearts were anguished on account of this and it (this reaction of the people) reached the Apostle of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam). We do not know whether he received (this news) from the Heaven (through revelation) or from the people. (Whatever the case might be) he said; O people, put off Ihram. If there were not the sacrificial animals with me, I would have done as you do. So we put off the Ihram (after performing Umroh), and we bad intercourse with our wives and did everything which a non-Muhrim does (applying perfume, putting on clothes, etc.), and when It was the day of Tarwiya (8th of Dzulhijjah) we turned our back to Mecca (in order to go to Mini, 'Arafat) and we put on lhram for Hajji.
Musa b. Nafi reported: I came to Mecca as a Mutamattil for Umroh (per- forming Umroh first and then putting off lhram and again entering into the state of Ihram for Hajji) four days before the day of Tarwiya (i. e. on tee 4th of Dzulhijjah). Thereupon the people said: Now yours is the Hajji of the Meccans. I went to 'Ata' b. Abi Rabah and asked his religious verdict. Ata' said: Jabir b. 'Abdullah al'Ans-ari (Allah be pleased wa'th them) narrated to me that he peirforfned Hajji with the Messenger of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) in the year when he took sacrificial animals with him (i. e. during the 10th year of Hijra known as the Farewell Pilgrimage) and they had put on Ihram for Hajji only (as Mufrid). The Messenger of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) said: Put off Ihram and circumambulate the House, and (run) between al-Safa and al-Marwa. and get your hair cut and stay as non-Muhrims. When it was the day of Tarwiya, then put on Ihram for Hajji and make lhram for Mut'a (you had put on Ihram i f or Hajji, but take it off af ter perf orming Umroh and then again put on Ihram for Hajji). They said: How should we make it Mut'a although we entered upon lhram in the name of Hajji? He said: Do whatever I command you to do. Had I not brought sacrificial animals with me, I would have done as I have commanded you to do. But it is not permissible for me to put off Ihram till tLe sacrifice is offered. Then they also did accordingly.
Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported: We set out with Allah's Messenger (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) as Muhrim for Hajji. The Messenger of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) commanded us to make this Ihram for Umroh, and some put it off (af ter performing 'Umroh), but the Prophet (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) had sacrificial animals with him, so he could not make it (this Ihram) as that of Umroh.
Abu Nadra reported: Ibn'Abbas commanded the performance of Mut'a putting lhram for 'Umroh during the months of Dhu'I-Hijja and after completing it. then putting on Ibrim for Hajji), but Ibn Zubair forbade to do it. I made a mention of it to Jabir b. Abdullih and he said: It is through me that this hadith has been circulated. We entered into the state of Ihram as Tamattu' with the Messenger of Allah (sholallahu alaihi wassalam). When 'Umar was Installed as Caliph, he said: Verily Allah made permissible for His Messenger (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) whatever He liked and as Re liked. And (every command) of the Holy Qur'an has been revealed for every occasion. So accomplish Hajji and Umroh for Allah as Allah has commanded you; and confirm by (proper conditions) the marriage of those women (with whom you have performed Mut'a). And any person would come to me with a marriage of appointed duration (Mut'a), I would stone him (to death). Qatada narrated this hadith with the same chain of transmitters saying: (That 'Umar also said): Separate your Hajji from 'Umroh, for that is the most complete Hajji, and complete your Umroh.
Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported: We came with the Messenger of Allah (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam) pronouncing Talbiya for Hajji, and the Messenger of Allah (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam) commanded us to make (our Ihram) into that of Umroh.
Just as the first revelation in the cave of Hira' marks the advent of the apostolic mission of Muhammad (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam), similarly his Farewell Pilgrimage marks its crowning glory. Opinions differ as to when Hajji became obligatory but the commonly accepted opinion is that it was in the eighth year of Hijra that Allah declared it as one of the five fundamentals of Islam. In the ninth year of Hijra the Holy Prophet (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) sent Abu Bakr as the leader of the Hajji delegation but he himself did not go. Hadrat Abu Bakr was later on joined by Hadrat Ali in order to make a sure declaration on behalf of the Holy Prophet (sholallahu alaihi wassalam) which concerned the freedom from obligation in regard to those idolatrous tribes who had shown no respect for the treaties which they had entered into with the Holy Prophet (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam). This declaration is contains in the opening verses of Sura Tauba.
The Holy Prophet (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam) spent this year in making preparations for the Hajji in the tenth year of Hijra which coincided with the sixty-third year (the last year) of his life. Every attempt was, therefore, made to take full advantage of this great assembly. Messengers were sent to all parts of Arabia inviting people to join him in this great Pilgrimage. It was necessary for them since they should learn by first-hand knowledge the several injunctions and practices of the Pilgrimage-free from all taints of ignorance-an ideal pattern which was to be kept intact in its pristine glory for all times to come. Not only the rites and rituals of the Pilgrimage were to be finally explained by the Holy Prophet (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam) but all those things which had any concern with Islam had been finalized.
The Holy Prophet (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam) delivered a khutba on the 24th of Dhi-Qa'da on the occasion of the Friday prayer and gave the Muslims necessary instructions relating to Hajji. Next day, I. e. on the 25th of Dhi-Qa'da, he set out after Zuhr prayer on a journey for Hajji along with thousands of his devoted Companions. The 'Asr prayer was offered at Dhu'l-Hulaifa. The caravan spent the night there and it was there after the Zuhr prayer that the Holy Prophet (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam) and his Companions put on Ihram and proceeded towards Mecca. They reached their destination on the 4th of Dzulhijjah pronouncing Talbiya (Labbaik, Labbaik, Allahumma Labbaik).
As the caravan moved on the number of participants swelled till, according to some of the narrators, it reached more than one lakh and thirty thousands. The Farewell Pilgrimage is one of the most important occasions in the sacred life of Muhammad (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam). Apart from the rites and rituals, the addresses and speeches of the Holy Prophet (Sholallahu alaihi wassalam) succinctly sum up the teachings of Islam.
