Hadith
1542
Narrated Saalim that he heard his father (may Allah be pleased with him) saying: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would raise his voice in Talbiyah only from the Mosque i.e., Thoo al-Hulayfah Mosque..

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺ clarified all the rulings and etiquettes of Hajj and ‘Umrah in words and actions, and the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted to us all what they heard and observed from him ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺused to raise his voice in Talbiyah only after he would arrive to the Mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah. The words of Talbiyah are: “Labbayka Allahumma Labbayk. Labbayka Laa Shareeka Laka Labbayk. Inna al-Ḥamda, Wal Niʻmata, Laka wal Mulk, Laa Shareeka Lak.” In other words, the Prophet ﷺwould enter the state of Ihraam and start the Tabliyah from the Mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah, which is located about 10 kms from al-Madeenah, and it is the Meeqaat of the people of al-Madeenah and those who travel through it. This incident took place in his journey to perform the farewell hajj.
It is reported in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) that “when the camel of the Prophet ﷺbrought him up to al-Baydaa’ he raised his voice in the talbiyah for the pilgrimage.” al-Baydaa’ is a place near Thoo al-Hulayfah in the region of Makkah, and the reason it is called al-Baydaa’ is that it contains no landmarks, buildings, constructions, and the like.
It is possible that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) differed on the places from which the Prophet ﷺraised his voice in Talbiyah is because each one of them reported what he saw. The Prophet ﷺdeparted al-Madeenah, heading to Makkah to perform Hajj. When he prayed in the Mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah, he raised his voice in Talbiyah so the people who heard him reported the incident. Then, he mounted his ride and after it stood upright, he ﷺraised his voice in Talbiyah again so those who heard him reported the incident because the people used to join in groups. Then, when he ﷺarrived at al-Baydaa’, he raised his voice in Talbiyah and so those who heard him reported the incident. The different reports appeared as if they differed on when he started raising his voice in Talbiyah and entering the state of Ihraam from the Meeqaat..

Narrated Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him): ‘Usaamah (may Allah be pleased with him) rode behind the Prophet ﷺfrom `Arafat to Al-Muzdalifah; and then from Al-Muzdalifah to Mina. Then, he ﷺallowed Al-Fadl to ride behind him from al-Muzdalifah to Mina." He added, "Both of them (Usaamah and Al-Fadl) said, 'The Prophet ﷺ was constantly reciting the Talbiyah till he finished stoning at the Jamarat-Al-`Aqaba.".

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺ clarified all the rulings and etiquettes of Hajj and ‘Umrah in words and actions, and the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted to us all what they heard and observed from him ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, Ibn Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that Usaamah (may Allah be pleased with him) was behind the Prophet ﷺon his mount while they were in their journey to perform the farewell hajj. This occurred when he was heading from ‘Arafah to al-Muzdalifah, which is where pilgrims sleep over the night of 10th of Thoo al-Hijjah after spending the day in ‘Arafaat. Muzdalifah is located next to Mina and where al-Mashʿar al-Ḥaraam (the Sacred Place) is. Then, he ﷺallowed al-Fadl ibn al-‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) to ride behind him on his mount from al-Muzdalifah to Mina.
Al-Fadl and Usaamah then mentioned that the Prophet ﷺraised his voice in Talbiyah and continued doing so until he finished the rite of Jamrat al-‘Aqabah, which is the major stone walls, in the west of Mina near Makkah. The throwing of these stones takes place in the morning of Eid al-Adha in the 10th of Thoo al-Hijjah when the pilgrims slaughter their animal sacrifices.
Mina is a valley surrounded by mountains and it is located in the west of Makkah, between Makkah and the mount of ‘Arafah. It is about 6 km from the Sacred Mosque and some of the rites of Hajj are performed there like throwing stones.
‘Arafaat is a mountain located about 22 km from Makkah, 10 km from Mina, and 6 km from al-Muzdalifah. It is located between Makkah and al-Taa’if and the most important rite of Hajj is performed there, which is standing on the mount of ‘Arafah on the 9th of Thoo al-Hijjah.
This hadeeth shows the humility of the Prophet ﷺand that it is permissible that two persons ride the same animal at the same time if it can carry them both..

1545
Narrated ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet ﷺ with his Companions started from al-Madeenah after combing and oiling his hair and putting on two sheets of lhraam (upper body cover and waist cover). He ﷺdid not forbid anyone to wear any kind of sheets except the ones colored with saffron that leave the scent on the skin. In the early morning, the Prophet ﷺ mounted his camel while in Thoo al-Hulayfah and set out till they reached al-Baydaa', where he ﷺand his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) recited Talbiyah, and then they did the ceremony of Taqleed (which means to put the colored garlands around the necks of the animals for sacrifice). And all that happened on the 25th of Thoo al-Qi'dah. And when he ﷺ reached Makkah on the 4th of Thoo al-Hijjah, he ﷺperformed the Tawaaf round the Ka`bah and performed the Tawaaf and walked briskly between al-Safa and al-Marwa. And as he ﷺhad a sacrifice animal and had garlanded it, he did not exit his Ihraam. Then, he ﷺproceeded towards the highest places of Makkah near Al-Hajoon while he was assuming the Ihraam for Hajj. He ﷺdid not go near the Ka`bah after he performed Tawaaf (round it) till he returned from `Arafaat. Then he ﷺordered his Companions to perform the Tawaaf around the Ka`bah and then walk back and forth between al-Safa and al-Marwa, and to cut short the hair of their heads and to finish their Ihraam. And that was only for those people who had not garlanded sacrificial animals. Those who had their wives with them were permitted to contact them (have sexual intercourse), and similarly perfume and (ordinary) clothes were permissible for them..

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺ clarified all the rulings and etiquettes of Hajj and ‘Umrah in words and actions, and the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) transmitted to us all what they heard and observed from him ﷺ.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺheaded towards Makkah from al-Madeenah to perform his farewell Hajj, which occurred 5 days before the end of the month of Thool QI’dah. Before departing al-Madeenah, he ﷺcombed his hair, scented his clothes and body with musk and pleasant scents, and put on his clothes of Ihraam. He ﷺdid not forbid anyone to wear any kind of sheets to cover the upper and lower parts of the body. In Arabic, the clothing worn for the upper body and lower body is called Ridaa’ and Izaar, respectively. The only type of clothes that he ﷺdid not allow during Ihraam those that are colored with saffron which would leave smell and color on the skin.
The Prophet ﷺ arrived at Thoo al-Hulayfah, which is a town that is located about 10 kms away from al-Madeenah and the appointed place for entering the state of Ihraam for the people of al-Madeenah and those who travel through it. In the early morning, he ﷺmounted his camel and set out till he ﷺreached al-Baydaa', which is a place near Thoo al-Hulayfah on the road to Makkah. And the reason it is called al-Baydaa’ is because it has no buildings, houses or landmarks. He ﷺand his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) recited the Talbiyah aloud, and the words of which are: “The words are: “Labbayk-Allaahumma labbayk, labbayka laa shareeka laka labbayk, inna al-ḥamda, wal ni`matah, laka wal Mulk, laa shareeka lak,” which means: “I am here at Your service, O Allah, I am here at Your service. I am here at Your service, You have no partner, I am here at Your service. Surely the praise, and blessings are Yours, and the dominion. You have no partner.” This was his third Talbiyah, because the first one he ﷺrecited was at Thoo al-Hulayfah when he entered the state of Ihraam from the mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah, and the second one was when he ﷺmounted his camel and stood upright.
The Prophet ﷺarrived at Makkah on the early morning of the 4th of Thoo al-Hijjah. He ﷺperformed the arrival circumambulation (Tawaaf) and then performed the rite of walking briskly between al-Safa and al-Marwa. By doing that, he ﷺcompleted the rites of ‘Umrah but he ﷺdid not exit his Ihraam because he had sacrificial animals that had colored garlands around their necks to mark them as the animals allocated for sacrifice. He ﷺmaintained his Ihraam and proceeded towards the highest place of Makkah near Al-Hajoon, which is a mountain overlooking al-Muhassab, which is located about 1.5 miles from the Ka’bah. The Prophet ﷺ did not go to the Ka’bah after he ﷺmade the arrival Tawaaf until after he finished from ‘Arafaat.
The Prophet ﷺordered his Companions who did not have sacrificial animals to perform the rites of circumambulation around the Ka’bah and brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah, and then shorten their hair to exit their Ihraam until the time of Hajj. This order was limited to those who did not have garlanded sacrifice animals. Then, he ﷺclarified that those who exited their Ihraam and had their wives with them are permitted to have sexual intercourse with their wives, and to wear perfume and ordinary clothes. Because of this, this rite was called Tamattu’ (which means in Arabic, enjoyment). On the 8th of Thool Hijjah, they again enter the state of Ihraam for Hajj and complete its rites.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to wear perfume before entering the state of Ihraam, and that it is allowed to do tamattu’ of ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj.

Narrated Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet ﷺ prayed four units in al-Madeenah and then two units at Thoo al-Hulayfah and then passed the night at Thool-Hulayfah till it was morning. And when he mounted his Mount and it stood up, he started to recite Talbiyah..

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺ explained to his Companions all the rulings of Hajj in words and actions and ordered them to learn their rites from him, so they can teach all the Muslims these rites.
This hadeeth clarifies some of the rites of Hajj when Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺ prayed Thoohr before departing to Makkah to perform his farewell Hajj, and that he did not shorten the prayer so he ﷺ prayed the four units. Then, when he ﷺ prayed ‘Asr at Thoo al-Hulayfah, he shortened it so he ﷺ prayed two units, as mentioned in another hadeeth in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree. Thoo al-Hulayfah is a town located about 10 kms away from al-Madeenah and the appointed place for entering the state of Ihraam for the people of al-Madeenah and those who travel through it.
The Prophet ﷺ spent the night at Thool al-Hulayfah and left in the morning heading towards Makkah. He ﷺ recited the Talbiyah aloud after he mounted his camel and it stood up. The words of the Talbiyah are: Labbayk-Allaahumma labbayk, labbayka laa shareeka laka labbayk, inna al-ḥamda, wal ni`matah, laka wal Mulk, laa shareeka lak,” which means: “I am here at Your service, O Allah, I am here at Your service. I am here at Your service, You have no partner, I am here at Your service. Surely the praise, and blessings are Yours, and the dominion. You have no partner.” It is reported on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when his camel brought him up to al-Baydaa’, he ﷺ raised his voice in the Talbiyah for the pilgrimage. [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree]. Al-Baydaa’ is a place near Thoo al-Hulayfah on the road to Makkah. And the reason it is called al-Baydaa’ is because it has no buildings, houses, or landmarks.
It is possible that the reason the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) differed on the place from which the Prophet ﷺ raised his voice in the Talbiyah is that each group reported what they witnessed i.e., the Prophet ﷺ came out from al-Medeenah with the intention of performing hajj, and when he ﷺ prayed at the mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah, he raised his voice in Talbiyah so those who heard him reported it. Then, he ﷺ mounted his camel and when it stood up, he ﷺ raised his voice in Talbiyah again, so those who heard him reported it. This is because the people were coming in groups, so they heard him raising his voice calling the Talbiyah when his camel stood up with him on its back, and they thought that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had raised his voice in the Talbiyah only when his camel stood up with him on its back. Then, when he ﷺ ascended the height of al-Baydaa', he raised his voice in the Talbiyah. Some people heard it at that moment, and they thought that he had raised his voice in the Talbiyah when he ascended the height of al-Baydaa'. Each group reported that which they witnessed and caused them to differ in opinion about the place from which he ﷺ started his Talbiyah and Ihraam. However, the truth is that he recited the Talbiyah three times.

1549
Narrated ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): The Talbiyah of Allah’s Messenger ﷺ was: “Labbayk-Allaahumma labbayk, labbayka laa shareeka laka labbayk, inna al-ḥamda, wal ni`matah, laka wal Mulk, laa shareeka lak,” which means: “I am here at Your service, O Allah, I am here at Your service. I am here at Your service, You have no partner, I am here at Your service. Surely the praise, and blessings are Yours, and the dominion. You have no partner.”.

Commentary : The Talbiyah is from the rites of Hajj and reciting it aloud manifests this significant ritual and declares the Oneness of Allah, Exalted be He. When a Muslim recites it aloud, plants and inanimate objects recite it along with him.
In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Talbiyah of the Prophet ﷺthat he observed was: ““Labbayk-Allaahumma labbayk, labbayka laa shareeka laka labbayk, inna al-ḥamda, wal ni`matah, laka wal Mulk, laa shareeka lak” i.e., O Allah! I emphasize my response to your call for Hajj for You are the One deserving of all praise and gratitude, and the only One with absolute perfection. You are the bestower of grace and blessings and You are the source of all graces and blessings. You are the Only King and Master whose Sovereignty is ever lasting while the sovereignty of others is meant to perish.
The wisdom of the Talbiyah is to remind us of Allah’s favor upon His believing servants as He enabled them to visit His House and they visited it because He called them to it.
This hadeeth shows the prescribed words of the Tabliyah that are reported from the Prophet ﷺ..

1551
Narrated Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him): Allah's Messenger ﷺ offered four units of Thoohr prayer at al-Madeenah and we were in his company, and prayed two units of the `Asr prayer at Thoo al-Hulayfah and then passed the night there till it was dawn; then he rode his mount, and when he reached Al-Baydaa', he praised and glorified Allah and said Takbeer Then he ﷺ and the people along with him recited the Talbiyah with the intention of performing Hajj and ‘Umrah. When we reached Makkah, he ﷺ ordered us to exit the lhraam (after performing the ‘Umrah). The people complied and on the day of Tarwiyah, they assumed their Ihraam for Hajj. The Prophet ﷺ slaughtered many camels as sacrificial animals with his own hands with the camels standing. When Allah's Messenger was in al-Madeenah, he ﷺ sacrificed two horned rams that were white speckled with black.".

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺ explained to his Companions all the rulings of Hajj in words and actions and ordered them to learn their rites from him, so they can teach Muslims these rites.
In this hadeeth, Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺ Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺ prayed Thoohr before departing to Makkah to perform his farewell Hajj, which was in the 10th year of Hijrah, and that he ﷺ did not shorten the prayer, so he ﷺ prayed the four units. Then, when he ﷺ prayed ‘Asr at Thoo al-Hulayfah, he shortened it so he ﷺ prayed two units.
Thoo al-Hulayfah is a town located about 10 kms away from al-Madeenah and the appointed place for entering the state of Ihraam for the people of al-Madeenah and those who travel through it. The Prophet ﷺ spent the night there and in the early morning he ﷺ rode his mount, and when he ﷺ reached Al-Baydaa', he praised and glorified Allah and said Takbeer i.e., he said: “Alhamdullah, Subhan Allah, and Allahu Akbar,” then recited the Talbiyah aloud with the intention of performing Hajj and Umrah in one Ihraam. The words of the Tabliyah read: “Labbayk-Allaahumma labbayk, labbayka laa shareeka laka labbayk, inna al-ḥamda, wal ni`matah, laka wal Mulk, laa shareeka lak,” which means: “I am here at Your service, O Allah, I am here at Your service. I am here at Your service, You have no partner, I am here at Your service. Surely the praise, and blessings are Yours, and the dominion. You have no partner.” However, this was not the beginning of his Ihraam, because he ﷺ entered Ihraam at the Mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah where he ﷺ recited the Talbiyah aloud. His second Talbiyah was when his camel stood up while he ﷺ was on its back, and the third Talbiyah was when he when he ascended Al-Baydaa'.
The people followed the Prophet ﷺ and recited the Talbiyah like him with the intention of performing Hajj and ‘Umrah in one Ihraam. However, after arriving at Makkah, the Prophet ﷺ ordered those who did not have sacrificial animals to exit their Ihraam after completing their ‘Umrah – that is after completing the rites of circumambulation around the Ka’bah and brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah and cutting or shaving the head. The Arabic term used for the sacrificial animals of pilgrims is Hady, which refers to the cows, camels, sheep, and goats that pilgrims slaughter in the Haram as sacrifice. As the Prophet ﷺ was among those who had sacrificial animals, he ﷺ did not exit his Ihraam.
On the day of Tarwiyah, which is the 8th day of Thoo al-Hijjah, they recited the Talbiyah for Hajj. The Prophet ﷺ slaughtered camels while the camels are standing because it is easier to do it that way. Then, he ﷺ slaughtered two horned rams that were white speckled with black when he ﷺ spent ‘Eid al-Adhah in al-Madeenah.
This hadeeth shows the actions of who performs ‘Umrah then exits Ihraam and then assumes Ihraam for Hajj.
It shows that it is permissible to combine ‘Umrah and Hajj in one Ihraam, and that shortening the prayer during travelling is allowed..

1553
Narrated Naafi', 'Whenever Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) finished his Fajr prayer at Thoo al-Hulayfah, he would get his mount prepared. Then, he would ride on it, and after it had stood up straight (ready to set out), he would face Al-Qiblah while sitting (on his mount) and reciting the Talbiyah. When he had reached the boundaries of the Haram (of Makkah), he would stop recitation of the Talbiyah till he reached Dhaa Tuwaa (near Makkah) where he would pass the night till it was dawn. After offering the Far prayer, he would take a bath. Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned that Allah's Messenger ﷺ had done the same..

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺ explained to his Companions all the rulings of Hajj in words and actions and ordered them to learn their rites from him so they can teach Muslims these rites.
In this hadeeth, Naafi’, the free slave of ‘’Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them), reports that Ibn ‘Umar(may Allah be pleased with him), whenever he would offer the Fajr prayer at Thoo al-Hulayfah, which is a town located about 10 kms away from al-Madeenah and the appointed place for entering the state of Ihraam for the people of al-Madeenah and those who travel through it, he would order that his mount be prepared and his luggage put over it. Then, after his ride stood up, he would face towards the Qiblah and recite the Talbiyah, which reads: “Labbayk-Allaahumma labbayk, labbayka laa shareeka laka labbayk, inna al-ḥamda, wal ni`matah, laka wal Mulk, laa shareeka lak,” which means: “I am here at Your service, O Allah, I am here at Your service. I am here at Your service, You have no partner, I am here at Your service. Surely the praise, and blessings are Yours, and the dominion. You have no partner.” He (may Allah be pleased with him) would continue reciting until reaching the Haram and spent the night in the valley of Tuwa (Dhee Tuwa), which is located in the higher parts of Makkah at al-Baydaa’, the house of Muhammad ibn Sayf. Then, he would perform the Fajr prayer and take a bath to get ready to enter Makkah during the daytime.
“Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had done the same.” i.e., the Prophet ﷺ spent the night in the valley of Tuwa and entered Makkah during the daytime. However, this is not obligatory since it is proven authentic that the Prophet ﷺ entered Makkah at night and assumed the state of Ihraam for ‘Umrah from al-Ji’raanah. None of that is from the rites of Hajj but it clarifies the places at which the Prophet ﷺ stayed.
It is narrated on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet ﷺ recited the Talbiyah for Hajj when he ﷺ reached al-Baydaa’ while he ﷺ was on the back of his camel. [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim]. Al-Baydaa’ is a place near Thoo al-Hulayfah on the road to Makkah. The reason it was called al-Baydaa’ because it was empty from any constructions and landmarks.
It is possible that the reason the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) differed on the place from which the Prophet ﷺ raised his voice in Talbiyah is that each group reported what they witnessed i.e., the Prophet ﷺ came out from al-Madeenah with the intention of performing hajj, and when he ﷺ prayed at the mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah, he raised his voice in Talbiyah, so those who heard him reported it. Then, he ﷺ mounted his camel and when it stood up, he ﷺ raised his voice in Talbiyah again so those who heard him reported it. This is because the people were coming in groups, so they heard him raising his voice calling the Talbiyah when his camel stood up with him on its back, and they thought that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had raised his voice in the Talbiyah only when his camel stood up with him on its back. Then, when he ﷺ ascended the height of al-Baydaa', he raised his voice in the Talbiyah. Some people heard it at that moment, and they thought that he had raised his voice in the Talbiyah when he ascended the height of al-Baydaa'. Each group reported that which they witnessed and caused them to differ in opinion about the place from which he ﷺ started his Talbiyah and Ihraam. However, the truth is that he recited the Talbiyah three times.
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is that one should take a bath before entering Makkah.

1554
Narrated Naafi’: Whenever Ibn `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) intended to go to Makkah, he used to oil himself with a sort of oil that had no pleasant smell. Then, he would go to the Mosque of Al-Hulayfah and offer the prayer, and then ride his mount. Once he was mounted well on his Mount and the Mount stood up straight, he would proclaim the intention of assuming Ihraam. Then, he would say that he had seen the Prophet ﷺ doing the same..

Commentary : The Prophet ﷺ explained to his Companions all the rites of Hajj in words and actions and ordered them to learn their rites from him so Muslims can learn these rites from them.
In this hadeeth, Naafi’ – the freed slave of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar -reports that Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to oil himself with an oil whose smell does not show before departing al-Madeenah to Makkah to perform Hajj. He (may Allah be pleased with him) used to do that after taking a bath and before wearing his clothes of Ihraam. The reason he opted for the non-scented smell is because he thought using scented oils is not permitted if one is about to enter the state of Ihraam i.e., he was under the assumption that wearing a fragrance is against the requirements of Ihraam. However, it is proven authentic, as in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim, that ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) perfumed the Prophet ﷺ with musk before he entered his Ihraam.
After, he (may Allah be pleased with him) would pray in the Mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah, which is a town at the distance of 10 km from al-Madeenah, and it is the appointed place (MIqaat) of Ihraam for the residents of al-Madeenah and those who travel through it. Then, he (may Allah be pleased with him) would mount his camel and once it stood up, he recited the Talbiyah aloud, which read: “Labbayk-Allaahumma labbayk, labbayka laa shareeka laka labbayk, inna al-ḥamda, wal ni`matah, laka wal Mulk, laa shareeka lak”.
Then, Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) informs others that he saw the Prophet ﷺ did all that whenever he ﷺ wanted to depart al-Madeenah to Makkah to perform Hajj or ‘Umrah and whenever he ﷺ wanted to enter the Ihraam. It is narrated on the authority of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet ﷺ recited the Talbiyah for Hajj when he ﷺ reached al-Baydaa’ while he ﷺ was on the back of his camel. [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree and Saheeh Muslim]. Al-Baydaa’ is a place near Thoo al-Hulayfah on the road to Makkah. The reason it was called al-Baydaa’ is because it was empty from any constructions and landmarks.
It is possible that the reason the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) differed on the place from which the Prophet ﷺ raised his voice in Talbiyah is that each group reported what they witnessed i.e., the Prophet ﷺ came out from al-Medeenah with the intention of performing hajj, and when he ﷺ prayed at the mosque of Thoo al-Hulayfah, he raised his voice in Talbiyah so those who heard him reported it. Then, he ﷺ mounted his camel and when it stood up, he ﷺ raised his voice in Talbiyah again so those who heard him reported it. This is because the people were coming in groups, so they heard him raising his voice calling the Talbiyah when his camel stood up with him on its back, and they thought that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had raised his voice in the Talbiyah only when his camel stood up with him on its back. Then, when he ﷺ ascended the height of al-Baydaa', he raised his voice in the Talbiyah. Some people heard it at that moment, and they thought that he had raised his voice in the Talbiyah when he ascended the height of al-Baydaa'. Each group reported that which they witnessed and caused them to differ in opinion about the place from which he ﷺ started his Talbiyah and Ihraam. However, the truth is that he recited the Talbiyah three times.
From the benefits that can be concluded from this hadeeth is learning that it is permissible to oil oneself before entering the state of Ihraam. As for using fragrant items and perfumes, it is also allowed according to other hadeeths..

1555
Narrated Mujaahid: I was in the company of Ibn `Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) and the people talked about Ad-Dajjaal and said, "Ad-Dajjaal will come with the word Kaafir (disbeliever) written in between his eyes." On that, Ibn `Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I have not heard this from the Prophet ﷺ, but I heard him saying, 'As if I saw Moses (peace be upon him) just now entering the valley reciting the Talbyiah. ' ".

Commentary : The Talbiyah is from the rites of Hajj and reciting it aloud manifests this significant ritual and declares the Oneness of Allah, Exalted be He. When a Muslim recites it aloud, plants and inanimate objects recite it along with him.
In this hadeeth, the Taabi’ee, Mujaahid ibn Jabr reports that he was in the company of Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) and the topic of the false Messiah, Ad-Dajjaal, was brought up. The appearance of Ad-Dajjaal is one of the major signs of the Day of Judgment as he will claim that he is God. The people who were present in this gathering mentioned that the Prophet ﷺdescribed him and said that the word Kaafir (disbeliever) will be written in between his eyes. According to the hadeeth in Saheeh Muslim, it is narrated on the authority of Hudhayfah ibn al-Yamaan (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet ﷺsaid: “…and between his eyes is written "disbeliever," which every believer will read, whether he is literate or illiterate.” The correct view is that people can see it as it is written with actual letters that Allah has made one of the evident signs to expose his identity of ad-Dajjaal. However, Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allah be pleased with him) stated that he did not hear that part about ad-Dajjaal from the Prophet ﷺ, but he heard him saying: 'As if I saw Moses (peace be upon him) just now entering the valley reciting the Talbyiah” i.e., it is as if I ﷺsee Moses right now with my own eyes descending the valley of al-Azraq, which is located between Makkah and al-Madeenah, reciting the Talbiyah.
It is recorded in Saheeh Muslim that the Prophet ﷺsaid: “He (Moses) was keeping his fingers in his ears and was reciting the Talbiyah loudly while passing through that valley.” And this valley is one mile away from Makkah.
This hadeeth shows that reciting the Talbiyah is prescribed whenever we ascend and descend, and while we are passing through a valley. It shows that reciting the Talbiyah while passing through the valley is from the Sunnah of Prophets (peace be upon them)..

1556
Narrated ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with him) - the wife of the Prophet ﷺ: “We set out with the Prophet ﷺ in his farewell Hajj, and we assumed Ihraam for ‘Umrah. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Whoever has the Hady (sacrificial animals) with him should assume Ihraam for Hajj along with `Umrah and should not exit the Ihraam till he finishes both." I was menstruating when I reached Makkah, and so I neither did the circumambulation round the Ka`bah nor the brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah. I complained about that to the Prophet ﷺ on which he replied, "Undo and comb your head hair, and assume Ihraam for Hajj (only) and leave the ‘Umrah." So, I did so. When we had performed the Hajj, the Prophet ﷺsent me with my brother `Abd al-Rahmaan bin Aboo Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) to the Tan`eem. So, I performed the `Umrah. The Prophet ﷺ said to me, "This `Umrah is instead of your missed one." Those who had assumed Ihraam for `Umrah (Hajj-al-Tamattu’) performed circumambulation round the Ka`bah and did the brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah and then exited their Ihraam. After returning from Minaa, they performed another circumambulation round the Ka’bah. Those who had assumed Ihraam for Hajj and `Umrah together (Hajj-al-Qiran) performed only one circumambulation..

Commentary : There are three ways for performing Hajj: (1) Tamattu’: It is when the pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj, namely Shawwaal, Thoo al-Qa’dah, and Thoo al-Hijjah. And after completing the ‘Umrah, he exits his Ihraam and then enters the Ihraam again in the same year to perform Hajj. (2) Al-Qiraan: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform both ‘Umrah and Hajj together. (3) Al-Ifraad: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform Hajj only.
In this hadeeth, ‘Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) talks about the farewell Hajj of the Prophet ﷺand the reason it was called the farewell Hajj is because the Prophet ﷺaddressed the people in the sermon of Hajj as if he was departing this life. The Prophet ﷺdid not live long after his Hajj, which was in the 10th year of Hijrah. ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports that people set out with the Prophet ﷺand that the intention of their Ihraam was to perform ‘Umrah. The Prophet ﷺtold them: “Whoever has the Hady (sacrificial animals) with him should assume Ihraam for Hajj along with `Umrah and should not exit the Ihraam till he finishes both” i.e., he ﷺtold them to perform ‘Umrah and Hajj together with one Ihraam, because whoever has Hady with him is not allowed to exit his Ihraam until after his Hady is slaughtered. The Hady mentioned in the hadeeth refers to the sacrificial animals that are slaughtered in the Haram after completing all the rites on the Day of al-Nahr. The Hady can be camels, cows, sheep, or goats.
‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) relates that she was menstruating when she arrived in Makkah; thus, she could not perform the rites of ‘Umrah. This is because women in menses are not allowed to perform circumambulation round the Ka’bah (Tawaaf). She informed the Prophet ﷺabout her condition so he ﷺordered her to undo, wash, and comb her hair and make it in braids, and to refrain from performing the rites of ‘Umrah and do the rites of Hajj i.e., he ﷺordered her to combine ‘Umrah and Hajj in one Ihraam (i.e., Al-Qiraan). After she completed the rites of Hajj and exited its Ihraam, he ﷺsent her with her brother ‘Abd al-Rahmaan ibn Aboo Bakr (may Allah be pleased with them) to assume Ihraam from al-Tan’eem to perform an independent ‘Umrah, so she does not feel sad for missing the ‘Umrah because of her menses and to perform ‘Umrah like the rest of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ. This ‘Umrah was independent from the Hajj and she assumed Ihraam from the Tan’eem because it is outside the Haram and that which is obligatory is to assume Ihraam from outside the Haram regardless of the place.
Then, she (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned that those who intended ‘Umrah performed the circumambulation round the Ka’bah and the brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah, then exited their Ihraam by shaving or cutting their head. Then, they performed circumambulation round the Ka’bah one more time for Hajj after they returned from Minaa. As for those who intended performing ‘Umrah and Hajj together in one Ihraam, they only performed one circumambulation because it is sufficient for the pilgrim who intends Qiraan to perform the rites of circumambulation and brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah one time, because the rites of ‘Umrah is included in the rites of Hajj.
From the benefits that we can conclude from this hadeeth is learning that it is permissible to perform Qiraan and Tamattu’ in Hajj, and that purity is required to perform circumambulation round the Ka’bah.
It teaches us that a woman should not travel alone or without having one of her Mahram in her company.
It shows that we should be gentle and kind to women and cheer them up whenever they feel upset or sad.
It shows that assuming Ihraam from Tan’eem is allowed for those who are within the Haram..

Narrated Jaabir (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet ﷺordered ‘Alee [ibn Abee Taalib] (may Allah be pleased with him) to keep assuming his Ihraam..

Commentary : There are three ways for performing Hajj: (1) Tamattu’: It is when the pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj, namely Shawwaal, Thoo al-Qa’dah, and Thoo al-Hijjah. And after completing the ‘Umrah, he exits his Ihraam and then enters the Ihraam again in the same year to perform Hajj. (2) Al-Qiraan: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform both ‘Umrah and Hajj together. (3) Al-Ifraad: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform Hajj only.
In this hadeeth, Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺordered ‘Alee (may Allah be pleased with him) to assume his Ihraam that he already entered like that of the Prophet ﷺ. He ﷺordered him not to exit his Ihraam because he brought Hady, which refers to the cows, camels, sheep, and goats that pilgrims slaughter in the Haram as sacrifice. The background of the story is that the Prophet ﷺsent ‘Alee (may Allah be pleased with him) to Yemen before the farewell Hajj, so he (may Allah be pleased with him) travelled from Yemen to Makkah to perform Hajj, bringing with him the alms and the fifth that he collected. On his way to Makkah, he (may Allah be pleased with him) entered the Ihraam with the intention of following the same Ihraam of the Prophet ﷺ. Later, the Prophet ﷺordered him to continue his Ihraam, because he ﷺbrought his hady too; thus, he used one Ihraam to perform ‘Umrah and Hajj. The Prophet ﷺordered his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) who did not bring Hady with them to exit their Ihraam after completing the ‘Umrah. Then, on the Day of Tarwiyah, to enter a new Ihraam to perform Hajj.

Narrated Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him): Jabir said, "Alee bin Abee Taalib (may Allah be pleased with him) returned from Yemen. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, 'With what intention have you assumed the state of Ihraam?' `Alee said, "I have assumed Ihraam with an intention as that of the Prophet ﷺ." The Prophet ﷺ said (to him): If I have not brought a Hady, I would have exited my Ihraam.
Muhammad ibn Bakr add from Jurayj: The Prophet ﷺ said to him: The Prophet ﷺsaid to him, 'With what intention have you assumed the state of Ihraam?' `Alee said, "I have assumed Ihraam with an intention as that of the Prophet ﷺ. 'Offer a Hady and keep the state of Ihraam in which you are now.'.

Commentary : Hajj and ‘Umrah are of a great status and are so much rewarding such that the Prophet ﷺliked to demonstrate all their rites verbally and in action. He ﷺordered them to learn their rites directly from him, so they can teach them to the rest of Muslims.
In this hadeeth, Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports the incident when ‘Alee (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the Prophet ﷺin the farewell Hajj. He (may Allah be pleased with him) travelled from Yemen, where the Prophet ﷺsent him to collect the alms and the one fifth, and on his way to Makkah, he (may Allah be pleased with him) entered the state of Ihraam.  After, the Prophet ﷺasked him about the intention of his Ihraam. His answer was that he assumed Ihraam with an intention as that of the Prophet ﷺ. It happened that the Prophet ﷺwas one of the pilgrims who had Hady with them; thus, he entered the Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah and Hajj together. However, the Prophet ﷺcommented that if he had not brought a Hady with him, he would have exited his Ihraam and then entered Ihraam again for Hajj. This is because the pilgrim who brings Hady cannot exit his Ihraam until after the Hady is slaughtered on the Day of Sacrifice (Day of Nahr). The Hady refers to the cows, camels, sheep, and goats that pilgrims slaughter in the Haram as sacrifice.
In another version of the same narration, the Prophet ﷺsaid to ‘Alee (may Allah be pleased with him): 'Offer a Hady and keep the state of Ihraam in which you are now until you complete Hajj.
From the benefits we can conclude from this hadeeth is that it is permissible for the pilgrim to enter the state of Ihraam with a general intention and to have it specified before entering the rites.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to combine ‘Umrah and Hajj in one Ihraam (i.e., Tamattu’).
It shows the great love that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) had for the Prophet ﷺand how keen they were to follow his example..

1559
Narrated Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (ﷺ) sent me to some people in Yemen and when I returned, I found him at Al-Bat-haa’. He ﷺasked me, "With what intention have you assumed Ihraam (i.e., for Hajj or for ‘Umrah or for both?") I replied, "I have assumed Ihraam with an intention like that of the Prophet ﷺ." He ﷺasked, "Have you a Hady with you?" I replied in the negative. He ﷺordered me to perform Tawaaf round the Ka`ba and between Al-Safaa and Al-Marwah and then to finish my Ihraam. I did so and went to a woman from my tribe who combed my hair or washed my head. Then, when `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came (i.e., became Caliph) he said, "If we follow Allah's Book, it orders us to complete Hajj and ‘Umrah; as Allah says: {Perform the Hajj and ‘Umrah for Allah.} (2.196). And if we follow the Sunnah of the Prophet (ﷺ), he ﷺdid not finish his Ihraam till he sacrificed his Hady.".

Commentary : There are three ways for performing Hajj: (1) Tamattu’: It is when the pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj, namely Shawwaal, Thoo al-Qa’dah, and Thoo al-Hijjah. And after completing the ‘Umrah, he exits his Ihraam and then enters the Ihraam again in the same year to perform Hajj. (2) Al-Qiraan: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform both ‘Umrah and Hajj together. (3) Al-Ifraad: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform Hajj only.
In this hadeeth, Aboo Musa AL-Ash’aree (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet ﷺsent him to some people in Yemen to serve as a judge and teach them Islam. Later, he (may Allah be pleased with him) returned from Yemen and met the Prophet ﷺat al-Bat-haa’ in Makkah. This happened during the Ihraam of the Prophet ﷺfor the farewell Hajj. Al-Bat-haa’ is a place that has small pebbles and is located in the south of the Sacred Haram in front of Thawr Mountain. It was originally the valley of Makkah, and also known as al-Abtah.
Then, Abu Musa went to a woman from his tribe, which is understood to mean she was one of his mahram women, who combed his hair or washed his hair. He (may Allah be pleased with him) did not mention that he shaved or cut his hair, either because it was known for them or because it was a part of exiting his Ihraam.
This incident was mentioned to ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allah be pleased with him) after he became the Caliph. He (may Allah be pleased with him) commented on it by saying that the Quran orders us to complete the rites of ‘Umrah and Hajj after we assume their rites. This is because he interpreted the ayah: {Perform the Hajj and ‘Umrah for Allah.} to mean that the rites of ‘Umrah and the rites of Hajj should be performed separately and relied on the fact that the Prophet ﷺdid Qiraan and he ﷺonly exited his Ihraam after slaughtering the Hady in Minaa. The apparent meaning of the words of ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) is that he is against exiting the Ihraam after completing ‘Umrah and wait to perform Hajj with another Ihraam. However, Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did not want to oppose the Quran and the Sunnah because Al-Nasaa’iee recorded that Abu Musa inquired from ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) about it, whereupon 'Umar said: “I know that Allah's Messenger ﷺdid that (observed Tamattu'), but I disliked that people should lay with their wives in the shade of the Arak trees, and then go out for Hajj with their heads dripping.” i.e., ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) disliked people to do Tamattu’ because it allows people to have intercourse with their wives until it is the time of Hajj.
It is proven authentic, as reported in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree, when the Prophet ﷺordered his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) to perform Tamattu’, Jaabir ibn ‘Abdillah (may Allah be pleased with him) related that Suraaqah ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up when he met the Prophet ﷺat al-‘Aqabah throwing the pebbles, and said: “O Messenger of Allah! Is this exclusive to you? The Messenger of Allah ﷺsaid: “No, this forever and forever.”
From the benefits we can conclude from this hadeeth learning that we should follow the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺand follow his example in all his actions.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to perform ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj.
It shows that it is permissible to have a general intention for Ihraam and that it be specified before entering the rites.

Narrated ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her): "We set out with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in the months of Hajj, and (in) the nights of Hajj, and at the time and places of Hajj and in a state of Hajj. We dismounted at Sarif. The Prophet (ﷺ) then addressed his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and said, "Anyone who has not got a Hady and likes to do ‘Umrah instead of Hajj may do so (i.e., Hajj-al-Tamattu`) and anyone who has got a Hady should not finish the Ihraam after performing ' `Umrah. (i.e., Hajj-al-Qiraan). ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) added, "Some of the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) complied while some of them did not." As for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and some of his Companions, they were resourceful and had the Hady with them, they could not perform ‘Umrah (alone) (but had to perform both Hajj and ‘Umrah with one Ihraam). ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) added, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to me and saw me weeping and said, "What makes you weep, O Hantaah?" I replied, "I have heard your conversation with your Companions, and I cannot perform the ‘Umrah." He asked, "What is wrong with you?' I replied, ' I am in a state that does not allow me to offer the prayers (i.e., I have my menses).' He (ﷺ) said, ' It will not harm you for you are one of the daughters of Adam, and Allah has written for you (this state) as He has written it for them. Keep on with your intentions for Hajj and Allah may reward you that." ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) further added, "Then we proceeded for Hajj till we reached Mina and I became clean from my menses. Then I went out from Mina and performed Tawaaf round the Ka`bah." ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) added, "I went along with the Prophet (ﷺ) in his final departure (from Hajj) till he dismounted at Al-Muhassab, and we too, dismounted with him." He called `Abd al-Rahmaan bin Abu Bakr and said to him, 'Take your sister outside the sanctuary of Makkah and let her assume Ihraam for 'Umrah, and when you had finished `Umrah, return to this place and I will wait for you both till you both return to me.' " ' ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) added, " So we went out of the sanctuary of Makkah and after finishing from the `Umrah and the Tawaaf, we returned to the Prophet (ﷺ) at dawn. He (ﷺ) said, 'Have you performed the `Umrah?' We replied in the affirmative. Thereupon, he (ﷺ) announced the departure amongst his Companions and the people set out for the journey, and the Prophet too left for al-Madeenah.''.

Commentary : There are three ways for performing Hajj: (1) Tamattu’: It is when the pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj, namely Shawwaal, Thoo al-Qa’dah, and Thoo al-Hijjah. And after completing the ‘Umrah, he exits his Ihraam and then enters the Ihraam again in the same year to perform Hajj. (2) Al-Qiraan: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform both ‘Umrah and Hajj together. (3) Al-Ifraad: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform Hajj only.
In this hadeeth, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports that she set out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺin the months and nights of Hajj i.e., she went out with him during the time of Hajj and attended the designated locations of Hajj, underwent the different conditions of pilgrimage, and refrained from all that which is not allowed during pilgrimage. They landed at Sarif, a place six miles (10 km) away from Makkah, and there the Prophet ﷺaddressed his Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and said to them that he likes whoever does not have Hady – which are the cows, camels, sheep, and goats that pilgrims slaughter in the Haram as sacrifice to make their Ihraam for ‘Umrah only and then exit their Ihraam, and there is nothing required from them for doing so. This is because when the Companions (may Allah be pleased with her) set out with the Prophet ﷺin this journey, they entered their Ihraam with the intention of performing ‘Umrah and Hajj together. After all of them completed the rites of ‘Umrah, he ﷺordered those who did not have Hady to exit their Ihraam and enter Ihraam for Hajj on the day of Tarwiyah. As for those who had Hady, he ﷺordered them to maintain their Ihraam; thus, the rites of ‘Umrah be included in the rites of Hajj. Some of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) exited their Ihraam while some other Companions did not, which shows that as if the order was optional. It was said that the Prophet ﷺmade it optional for them at the beginning to absorb their shock and be kind to them by showing that they will get the reward of ‘Umrah in the months of Hajj, because at that time, they considered exiting their Ihraam before performing Hajj a serious heinous act, but then he ﷺemphasised his order and made it obligatory upon them, as he ﷺdisliked their reluctance to follow the order. However, after he ﷺmade it obligatory, all of them accepted it and complied except those who had Hady. The Messenger of Allah ﷺand some of his Companions were resourceful and had Hady; thus, they did not exit their Ihraam after completing the ‘Umrah.
Afterwards, the Prophet ﷺfound ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) crying so he ﷺinquired as to what was wrong and addressed her with the name Hantaah, which was said that a person does not know the evil and plots of people! It is possible that it is used as a form of calling to say Hey you! She explained that she heard his instruction to his Companions – that those who do not have Hady to exit their Ihraam after they have completed the ‘Umrah - and then informed him that she cannot perform the rites of ‘Umrah i.e., the Tawaaf and brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah because she got her period, although her Ihraam was to do Qiraan (Hajj and ‘Umrah together). However, out of her decorum. Thereupon, the Prophet ﷺattempted to make it easier on her and cheer her up so he ﷺinformed her that her menses will not harm her, because it is a thing which Allah has ordained for the daughters of Adam, and that this happens to all women. Then, he ﷺtold her to continue her Hajj with the hope that Allah will allow her to perform it and complete it.
‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) assumed her Hajj and after she arrived at Mina, she became clean from her menses, which was on the 10th of Thoo al-Hijjah, on the Day of Nahr. Mina is a valley surrounded by mountains and is located about 6 km to the south of Makkah, between Makkah and the mountain of ‘Arafah. There, some of the rites of Hajj are performed like the rite of throwing the pebbles. After she became clean, she left Mina and performed Tawaaf round the Ka’bah. Then, she joined the Prophet ﷺand the cohort who departed Minaa on the 13th of Thoo al-Hijjah as others departed it on the 12th of Thoo al-Hijjah. After, she went down with the Prophet ﷺto a place called al-Muhassab, which is a spacious land between Makkah and Minaa. The name of the place is derived from the Arabic word al-Hasbaa’ (pebbles) because pebbles gather there from the water stream.
The Prophet ﷺorderd ‘Abd al-Rahmaan ibn Abi Bakr al-Siddeeq (may Allah be pleased with him) to take his sister, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) and leave the Haram and go to the Tan’eem so she can enter her Ihraam for ‘Umrah in lieu of the ‘Umrah she missed because of her menses. Then, he ﷺordered them to return to al-Muhassab after completing the ‘Umrah where he ﷺwill wait for them. She (may Allah be pleased with her) followed the instructions of the Prophet ﷺand went to the Tan’eem, which is a place located 7 km from the Haram of Makkah and the place from which the people of Makkah enter Ihraam. After she entered her Ihraam for ‘Umrah and completed the final tawaaf, she headed to where the Prophet ﷺwas waiting for her. She arrived about fajr time. After he ﷺlearned that she completed her ‘Umrah, he ﷺinformed his Companions that it is the time to depart, so all the people joined them and on their way to al-Madeenah, he ﷺpassed by the Ka’bah and performed the farewell Tawaaf before Fajr time, as reported in the hadeeth in Saheeh Muslim.
This hadeeth shows the mercy of the Prophet ﷺtowards his wife and his attempts to cheer her up and pleases her when she was sad.
It shows that the last rite that pilgrims need to do is to perform the farewell Tawaaf and then leave to their homeland.

Narrated ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her): 'We went out with the Prophet (ﷺ) with the intention of performing Hajj only and when we reached Makkah, we performed Tawaaf round the Ka`bah and then the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered those who had not driven the Hady along with them to finish their Ihraam.  Thereupon, the people who had not driven the Hady along with them finished their Ihraam. The Prophet's wives, too, had not driven the Hady with them, so they too, finished their Ihraam." `Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) added, "I got my menses and could not perform Tawaaf round the Ka`bah." So, when it was the night of Hasbah, I said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Everyone is returning after performing Hajj and `Umrah, but I am returning after performing Hajj only.' He (ﷺ) said, 'Did not you perform Tawaaf round the Ka`bah the night we reached Makkah?' I replied in the negative. He (ﷺ) said, 'Go with your brother to Tan`eem and assume the Ihraam for `Umrah, (and after performing it) come back to such and such a place.' On that Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) said, 'I feel that I will detain you all.' The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'O 'Aqra Halqa! Did not you perform Tawaaf round the Ka`bah on the Day of Sacrifice? (i.e., Tawaaf-al-ifaadah) Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) replied in the affirmative. He said, (to Safiyyah). 'There is no harm for you to proceed on with us.' " `Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) added, "(after returning from `Umrah), the Prophet (ﷺ) met me while he was ascending (from Makkah) and I was descending to it, or I was ascending, and he was descending.".

Commentary : There are three ways for performing Hajj: (1) Tamattu’: It is when the pilgrim enters the state of Ihraam with the intention to perform ‘Umrah during the months of Hajj, namely Shawwaal, Thoo al-Qa’dah, and Thoo al-Hijjah. And after completing the ‘Umrah, he exits his Ihraam and then enters the Ihraam again in the same year to perform Hajj. (2) Al-Qiraan: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform both ‘Umrah and Hajj together. (3) Al-Ifraad: It is when the pilgrim enters the Ihraam with the intention to perform Hajj only.
In this hadeeth, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her), the Mother of the Believers, reports that she set out with the Prophet ﷺin his farewell hajj, which occurred in the 10th year of Hijrah. They departed al-Madeenah with the intention to perform Hajj; thus, when they arrived at Makkah, they performed the arrival Tawaaf without her because she had her period when they entered Makkah. The Prophet ﷺordered those who did not have Hady to exit their Ihraam after performing ‘Umarh, which is done by performing Tawaaf then perform the brisk walking between al-Safaa and al-Marwah, and finally to cut [or shave] the hair. This is how pilgrims break their ‘Umrah from Hajj, and it happened that the wives of the Prophet ﷺdid not have Hady thus they exited their Ihraam after completing the rites of ‘Umrah.
The Hady mentioned in the hadeeth refers to the cows, camels, sheep, and goats that pilgrims slaughter in the Haram as sacrifice.
‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reports that she menstruated thus could not perform the Tawaaf of ‘Umrah. As for the Tawaaf of Hajj, she mentioned according to another narration in Saheeh al-Bukhaaree, that she was in her Ihraam for Hajj and when she arrived at Mina on the 10th day of Thoo al-Hijjah, which is the Day of Sacrifice, she became clean then she left Mina and performed Tawaaf al-Ifaadah then she left with the Prophet ﷺin the group who leave Mina on the 13th of Thoo al-Hijjah.
When it was the night of Hasbah, which is the night that they spent at al-Muhassab i.e., a spacious land between Makkah and Mina. The name of the place is derived from the Arabic word al-Hasbaa’ (pebbles) because pebbles gather there from the water stream. This was when the Prophet ﷺleft preparing to travel back to al-Madeenah. There, she (may Allah be pleased with her) said to the Prophet ﷺ: “Everyone is returning after performing Hajj and `Umrah, but I am returning after performing Hajj only,” because she was keen on doing as many good deeds and acts of worship as possible just like the other Mother of the Believers and Companions (may Allah be pleased with them). She wanted to perform ‘Umrah like everyone else. The Prophet ﷺordered her to go with her brother ‘Abd al-Rahmaan (may Allah be pleased with him) to the Tan’eem and enter Ihraam for ‘Umrah from there. He ﷺdid that to please her and make her happy and then appointed al-Muhassab, where he ﷺwas spending the night, the place of meeting after she completes her ‘Umrah.
‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) then relates that Safiyyah bint Huyyay (may Allah be pleased with her) thought that she will delay the people because she menstruated and could not perform the farewell Tawaaf. She menstruated on the night of Sacrifice and thought that everyone will have to wait for her until she be clean and perform it. The Prophet ﷺremarked: “Aqra Halqa” which is an expression that was customary among the Arabs who would utter it out of habit without intending its meaning, which is an invocation against the person. However, the Prophet ﷺasked her if she performed the tawaaf al-Ifaadah and she confirmed that she completed it. Thereupon, he ﷺinformed him that it was not a problem, and that she does not have to do it because menstruating women are not obliged to do it.
Then, ‘Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) mentions that she met the Prophet ﷺat al-Muhassab, which is the starting point from which people depart to outside Makkah. She mentioned that she met him ﷺwhile he was ascending (from Makkah) and she was descending to it, or she was ascending, and he ﷺwas descending.
This hadeeth shows that it is permissible to perform ‘Umrah in the months of Hajj and exit Ihraam.
It shows the kind treatment and compassion of the Prophet ﷺfor women..

Nāfi‘ ibn Jubayr reported: Marwān ibn al-Hakam addressed the people and made mention of Makkah and its inhabitants and inviolability. Still, he did not mention Madīnah and its inhabitants or inviolability. Thereupon, Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj called him and said: "What is it that I hear you making mention of Makkah and its inhabitants and its inviolability, but you did not make mention of Madīnah and its inhabitants and its inviolability, while the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared what is between its two lava fields as inviolable?! And this is with us on Khawlāni parchment. If you wish, I can make you read it." He said: Marwān became silent and then said: "I heard part of that.".

Commentary : Allah Almighty has given Makkah and Madīnah greater status than other places and positions. Allah rendered Makkah a sanctuary for Abraham (Ibrāhīm) (peace be upon him) and made it a safe town. Likewise, He rendered Madīnah a sanctuary for the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
This Hadīth points out that Madīnah is sacred like Makkah. This version has a story. Marwān ibn al-Hakam - the then-governor of Madīnah - addressed the people and mentioned Makkah and its people and its inviolability but did not mention Madīnah and its people and its inviolability. Its inviolability means that everything becomes secure therein, even animals, which may not be hunted, and trees, which may not be cut down, and that no one may do anything in it that contradicts the religion of Allah or commit a crime, an act of injustice, or a sin for which a legal punishment is prescribed. So, it is forbidden to hunt in Madīnah as it is forbidden in the sanctuary of Makkah, but he who hunts in Madīnah faces no punishment, for it is not a place for the rituals, unlike Makkah.
So, Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj (may Allah be pleased with him) called him and said: "What is it that I hear you making mention of Makkah and its inhabitants and sacredness, but you did not make mention of Madīnah and its inhabitants and its inviolability, while the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared what is between its two lava fields as inviolable?!" He meant that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared all of Madīnah inviolable. Madīnah lies between two lava fields, eastern and western. A lava field is a land covered with black stones as if it was burned. The eastern lava field is called "Harrat Wāqim", and it now contains Qubā' and the Wāqim fortress. The western lava field is "Harrat Wabarah", and it contains the mosque called the Mosque of the Two Qiblahs. Its borders from the south and north are between the two mountains' Ayr and Thawr. The Prophetic Sanctuary falls between Mount' Ayr from the south, 8.5km away from the Prophet's Mosque, and Mount Thawr from the north, 8km away from the Prophet's Mosque. An official committee in Saudi Arabia has demarcated the Madīnah sanctuary, and the Madīnah Regional Municipality has put architectural signs in the form of arches like those of the Prophet's Mosque, in many places demonstrating these borders.
Then, Rāfi‘ (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "And this is with us" written "on Khawlāni parchment", which is skin attributed to Khawlān, a village in Yemen. Perhaps this skin is characterized by strength and durability suitable for keeping such things. Then, Rāfi‘ said to him: "If you wish, I can make you read it", i.e., if you want to verify this matter by reading the text by yourself, I will enable you to read it. Thereupon, Marwān kept silent and then acknowledged that, saying: "I heard part of that," i.e., the Hadīth in which the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared Madīnah inviolable.
The Hadīth demonstrates the status of Madīnah.
It indicates that a knowledgeable person should alert others if they make a mistake or forget or overlook a Shar‘i ruling..

Sa‘d reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I declare inviolable what is between the two lava plains of Madīnah, so its thorn trees must not be cut down and its game must not be killed." He also said: "Madīnah is best for them if they only knew. No one leaves it out of dislike for it except that Allah will replace him with someone better, and no one remains therein despite its hardships and distress except that I shall be an intercessor or a witness for him on the Day of Judgment." [Another narration reads]: And no one intends to harm the people of Madīnah except that Allah will cause him to melt in fire like the melting of lead or the dissolution of salt in water..

Commentary : Allah Almighty has granted Makkah and Madīnah a special position that excels other places and positions on account of the Islamic sacred sites found therein, like the Sacred House in Makkah and the Prophet's Mosque in Madīnah.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says: "I declare inviolable what is between the two lava plains of Madīnah," i.e., it is a safe sanctuary, so everything therein should be safe. "Two lava plains": Lava plain, i.e., lava field, which is an area of land with black rocks as if burnt with fire. Madīnah - may Allah increase its honor - is located between two lava fields on the east and the west. The eastern lava field (Harrat Wāqim) now has Qubā’ and Wāqim Fort, whereas the western lava field is Harrat Wabarah, which has a mosque called Masjid Al-Qiblatayn. Its borders from the south and north are between the two mountains ‘Ayr and Thawr. The Prophetic Sanctuary falls between Mount ‘Ayr from the south, which is 8.5 kilometers away from the Prophet's Mosque, and Mount Thawr from the north, which is 8 kilometers away from the Prophet's Mosque. An official committee in Saudi Arabia has demarcated the Madīnah sanctuary, and the Madīnah Regional Municipality has put architectural signs in the form of arches, like those of the Prophet's Mosque, in many places demonstrating these borders.
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) then clarified what is prohibited within these borders, as it is prohibited to cut down thorn trees, i.e., all trees having thorns, and it is prohibited to hunt animals and birds therein, as they are protected within these borders.
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) then informed us of some of the merits of Madīnah, saying: "Madīnah is best for them if they only knew," referring to people who would leave Madīnah, i.e., Madīnah is best for those leaving it from such countries for whose sake they are leaving it. Then, he clarified that anyone who leaves and abandons it from among its dwellers out of dislike for it, i.e., out of aversion or unwillingness to get a reward for living there, Allah will replace him with someone better in Madīnah, whether a child born there or someone moving from another city and settling therein.
Then he added that anyone who remains steadfast, patiently enduring its hardships, i.e., straitened circumstances and hunger, "and distress", i.e., its difficulties, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) will be an intercessor or a witness for him on the Day of Judgment. The meaning of this may be: the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) will be a witness for some of the people of Madīnah and an intercessor for the rest of them; or he will be an intercessor for the sinners and a witness for the obedient ones; or a witness for those who die during his lifetime and an intercessor for those who die after him; or maybe "or" here is used in the sense of "and", i.e., he will be an intercessor and a witness for them. This is an exclusive merit in addition to the intercession for the sinners or for the worlds on the Day of Judgment and in addition to his testimony to the entire Ummah.
In another narration, he said: "And no one intends to harm the people of Madīnah except that Allah will cause him to melt in fire like the melting of lead or the dissolution of salt in water," i.e., this will happen to him in the Hereafter. This could also mean: Whoever has ill will towards it during the Prophet's lifetime, or in this worldly life, Muslims will be spared of his harm and his plot will fade away just as the lead fades away in fire. Thus, Allah will not grant him a respite and will not grant him authority; rather, He will soon eliminate him.
The Hadīth stresses the importance of Madīnah and its great inviolability.
It also points out how Allah Almighty hastens to inflict His severe punishment on whoever intends to harm Madīnah and its people..

‘Āmir ibn Saad reported: Saad rode to his castle in Al-‘Aqīq and found a slave cutting down the trees or beating them. So, he took all his belongings. When Saad returned, the people of the slave came to him and talked to him about giving back to their slave or to them what he had taken from their slave. Thereupon, he said: "Allah forbid that I should give back anything which the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) has given me as a spoil!" He refused to return anything to them..

Commentary : Allah Almighty has given Makkah and Madīnah greater status than other places and positions. Allah rendered Makkah a sanctuary for Abraham (peace be upon him) and made it a safe town. Likewise, He rendered Madīnah a sanctuary for the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i ‘Āmir ibn Saad ibn Abi Waqqās informs that Saad ibn Abi Waqqās (may Allah be pleased with him) rode to his castle in Al-‘Aqīq, a place as close to Madīnah as Al-Baqī 'is close to it, situated nearly 20km away from the Prophet's Mosque. Al-‘Aqīq means: what was ripped by the flood a long time ago. He found a slave cutting trees from the sanctuary of Madīnah or beating them. In other words, he was beating the tree leaves or throwing stones at them. So, Saad (may Allah be pleased with him) took all his belongings, i.e., he took the clothes he was wearing and other things which would be taken from a killed person among the disbelievers, which include his horse, weapon, money, etc. The people of the slave came and asked him to return to their slave or to them what he had taken from their slave. He declined that, citing the Prophet's instruction regarding anyone who does so within the sanctuary of Madīnah. He said: Allah forbid that I should give back anything which the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) has given me as a spoil, i.e., booty with his permission to anyone who sees someone hunting or cutting trees that he may take his belongings. So, he refused to return what he had taken from them. This is all intended to show extreme rejection and deterrence, and it is also because he considered this act worthy of criticism and firm response so that this issue could spread among the people so that they would refrain from hunting and cutting trees in Madīnah..

1373
Abu Hurayrah reported: When the people saw the first fruits, they would bring them to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), and when the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) received them, he would say: "O Allah, bless for us our fruits, bless for us our Madīnah, bless for us our Sā‘, and bless for us our Mudd. O Allah, indeed Abraham is Your slave, friend, and Prophet, and indeed I am Your slave and Prophet; and he supplicated You regarding Makkah, and I supplicate You regarding Madīnah with the same supplication he made to You for Makkah and the like of it along with it." He said: Then, he would call the youngest child and give these fruits to him..

Commentary : Allah Almighty has endowed some places in the world with particular blessings which He has not given to other places. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate Allah to bless Madīnah and its people and fruits and to fill it with goodness and blessing, as Abraham, the friend of Allah (peace be upon him), supplicated for Makkah.
In this Hadīth, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that when the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) "saw the first fruits", which is the first produce and the first fruits to become ripe in their farms, they would bring them to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) as a gift to him, or they would do that out of a desire for the Prophet's supplication and to notify him of the fruits becoming ripe and the Zakah related to them. When the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) received them, he would supplicate for them, saying: "O Allah, bless for us our fruits" with growth, increase, and continuity. Then, he would supplicate for Madīnah, saying: "bless for us our Madīnah", i.e., in its essence in terms of its opulence and the opulence of its people and so on. Blessing is intended to refer to blessing in this world and the Hereafter. Then, he supplicated with regard to the Sā‘ and Mudd of Madīnah, saying: "bless for us our Sā ', and bless for us our Mudd", i.e., bless for us what is measured in our Sā 'and bless for us what is measured in our Mudd, making what is in it more sufficient than what lies elsewhere. The Sā‘ of Madīnah is a measure that consists of four Mudds, and a Mudd equals one pound and a third among the people of Hejaz and two pounds elsewhere.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for Madīnah as Abraham (peace be upon him) supplicated for Makkah; he said: "O Allah, indeed Abraham is Your slave, friend, and Prophet, and indeed I am Your slave and Prophet; and he supplicated You regarding Makkah" by saying: {So make the people’s hearts incline towards them, and provide for them fruits, so that they may be grateful.} [Surat Ibrāhīm: 37] Meaning, provide the people of Makkah with fruits by bringing them from other lands so that they may show gratitude for this blessing. Certainly, Allah answered his supplication and made it a safe sanctuary to which all different fruits are brought.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And I supplicate You regarding Madīnah with the same supplication he made to You for Makkah and the like of it along with it," i.e., with the double of what Abraham (peace be upon him) supplicated for. Thus, Madīnah should have double the blessing in the fruits.
Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) would give these fruits he received to the youngest child present, and he probably gave them to children in particular because they have a greater desire, want, and longing for them.
The Hadīth demonstrates the Prophet's noble manners, great compassion and mercy, and gentle attitude toward the old and young.
It shows the Prophet's love for Madīnah..

1374
Abu Sa‘īd, the freed slave of Al-Mahri, reported: they suffered distress and hardship in Madīnah, and he came to Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri and said to him: "I have a lot of dependents, and we are enduring hardship. I have, therefore, made up my mind to take my dependents to some rural land." Abu Sa‘īd said: "Do not do that; stick to Madīnah, for indeed we came out with the Prophet of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) - I think he said:- until we reached 'Usfān, and he stayed there for some nights. The people said: 'By Allah, we are here for nothing, whereas our children are unprotected, and we do not feel secure about them.' This was conveyed to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: 'What is this that was conveyed to me from your speech?! - I do not know what he said: By the One by Whom I swear, or by the One in Whose Hand my soul is - I made up my mind, or if you will - I do not know which of that he said - that I should command my she-camel be prepared for proceeding and I will not untie any of its knots until I come to Madīnah.' Then, he said: 'O Allah, indeed Abraham declared Makkah as sacred and rendered it a sanctuary, and I declare Madīnah as sacred and a sanctuary between its two mountains. Thus, no blood is to be shed on it, no weapon is to be carried therein for fighting, and the leaves of trees are not to be beaten off except for fodder. O Allah, bless us in our city; O Allah, bless us in our Sā '; O Allah, bless us in our Mudd; O Allah, bless us in our Sā '; O Allah, bless us in our Mudd; O Allah, bless us in our city; O Allah, give with the blessing two more blessings. By the One in Whose Hand my soul is, there is no ravine or mountain path in Madīnah which two angels do not guard until you reach there.' Then, he said to the people: 'Proceed,' We proceeded and came to Madīnah. By the One in Whose name we take oath - or in Whose name oath is taken - we had hardly put down our camel saddles upon entering Madīnah that we were attacked by Banu ‘Abdullāh ibn Ghatafān, and nothing prevented them from doing it before that.".

Commentary : Allah Almighty endowed some places of the world with particular blessings that He did not give to other places, and He made some places locations for evils and trials and some others locations for goodness and blessings. The Prophet's Madīnah has been endowed with abundant goodness and blessing.
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Abu Sa‘īd, the freed slave of Al-Mahri, who was living in Madīnah, relates that they suffered distress and hardship due to poverty and lack of provisions, he complained to Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) about his condition and that he had "a lot of dependents," i.e., the members of one's household and those he supports; and he wants to leave Madīnah and go to some rural land where there are plants and fertility. In response, Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) enjoined him to stick to Madīnah and not leave it. Clarifying the reason behind that, he mentioned that they went out of Makkah along with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) until they reached 'Usfān, a village lying 80km to the northwest of Makkah. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stayed in it for nights and days. The people said: "We are here for nothing," i.e., business or work, or anything related to war. "whereas our children are unprotected," i.e., without men or any means of protection. We left them behind, and "we do not feel secure about them"; rather, we fear for them that the enemy may attack them while we are away. These words reached the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), and he asked them: "What is this that was conveyed to me from your speech" regarding your dependents and families?! Then Abu Sa‘īd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I do not know what he said"; Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) was doubtful about the oath taken by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), whether he said: "By the One by Whom I swear, or by the One in Whose Hand my soul is"; the latter is the form the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) would mostly use for swearing. Also, Abu Sa‘īd was in doubt about whether the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I made up my mind, or if you will", meaning he resolved and intended to do something, but he did not actually do it, or he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) left the matter to them; and that is: to command his she-camel be saddled and prepared for riding and travel and he would ride it and proceed and not untie any of the knots of the luggage loaded on it till he reaches Madīnah. This indicates that they alighted in 'Usfān for rest and to let their animals rest. Had it not been for that, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) would have hastened to Madīnah nonstop, which shows the Prophet's intense love for Madīnah.
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah, indeed Abraham declared Makkah as sacred and rendered it a sanctuary", i.e., he proclaimed its sacredness and informed people that it is a sanctuary because Allah made it sacred. "And I declare Madīnah as sacred"; the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) rendered it "a sanctuary between its two mountains." In another version by Muslim: "I declare what is between the two lava fields of Madīnah as sacred." A lava field is called Al-Harrah. Madīnah lies between two lava fields, eastern and western. A lava field is a land covered with black stones as if it was burned. Madīnah is bordered by Mount Thawr, behind' Uhud, from the north and Mount Ayr from the south. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) meant that he declared all of Madīnah as sacred. An official committee in Saudi Arabia has demarcated the Madīnah sanctuary, and the Madīnah Regional Municipality has put architectural signs in the form of arches like those of the Prophet's Mosque, in many places demonstrating these borders.
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed out that his declaration of Madīnah as sacred means: "that no blood is to be shed in it", i.e., nobody is to be unjustly killed therein. The unjust shedding of blood is forbidden everywhere, but shedding it in Makkah and Madīnah is more severely forbidden. "no weapon is to be carried for fighting" except for self-defense and the like. And no tree should be cut off except for fodder. Fodder is a name for grass, hay, barley, and the like, and it is intended to refer to the food of animals.
Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for them to have the blessing in their foods. He said: "O Allah, bless us in our city; O Allah, bless us in our Sā '; O Allah, bless us in our Mudd", i.e., bless the food measured by the two of them. Also, the supplication probably means that blessing should lie in the very measure, and thus, a Mudd in it be sufficient in a way not found elsewhere. The Sā‘ of Madīnah is a measure that consists of four Mudds, and a Mudd equals one pound and a third according to the people of Hejaz and two pounds elsewhere. Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) repeated his supplication: "O Allah, bless us in our Sā '; O Allah, bless us in our Mudd; O Allah, bless us in our city." And he added: "O Allah, give with the blessing two more blessings", supplicating Allah, the Exalted and Glorified, to increase and multiply the blessings and favors for the people of Madīnah. Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) swore by Allah in Whose Hand lies the soul of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and all humankind: "There is no ravine or mountain path in Madīnah which is not guarded by two angels", i.e., they protect it by the command of Allah Almighty until the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and those with him returned to Madīnah. Then, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) enjoined his Companions to prepare for travel. So, they got prepared and proceeded toward Madīnah.
Then Abu Sa‘īd (may Allah be pleased with him) swore by Allah Almighty - by Whom every Muslim swears - that once they unloaded their luggage from their animals as they entered Madīnah, Banu' Abdullāh ibn Ghatafān raided Madīnah, those are people who used to be called Banu' Abd al-‘Uzza during Jāhiliyyah. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) called them Banu' Abdullāh, and then the Arabs called them Banu Muhawwalah due to Tahwīl (the change) of their name. The meaning: In their absence, Madīnah was guarded, as informed by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). No apparent cause prevented those people from raiding Madīnah before the return of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions, except that Allah Almighty and His angels guarded it.
There is no contradiction in this Hadīth between the Prophet's supplication for Madīnah to be blessed and the fact that some of its people endured hardship, as there is no conflict between the existence of hardship in it and the existence of blessing and no harm done if it is lacking with regard to some people. It is said: What appears to be more correct is that the blessing in it lies in the obtainment of sustenance, and the Mudd in it is sufficient for such an amount that needs three Mudds elsewhere. So, the hardship can be endured in getting the Mudd, and the blessing is represented by multiplying the sustenance therein.
The Hadīth mentions that Allah blessed the people of Madīnah with their fruits and foods and placed blessings in their measures.
It demonstrates the Prophet's intense love for Madīnah and how he would yearn for it whenever he went out until he returned.
It points out the merit of Madīnah and that it was guarded during the Prophet's lifetime and numerous guards were stationed in all ravines, by way of increasing the honor of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)..

1375
Sahl ibn Hunayf reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed with his hand to Madīnah and said: "It is a safe sanctuary.".

Commentary : Allah Almighty endowed some places of the world with particular blessings that He did not give to other places, and He made some places' locations for evils and trials and others' locations for goodness and blessings. The Prophet's Madīnah has been endowed with abundant goodness and blessing.
In this Hadīth, the noble Companion Sahl ibn Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) pointed with his hand to Madīnah and then said: "It is a safe sanctuary." So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) declared it - as in another version by Muslim -: "inviolable throughout the area between its two mountain paths, that no blood should be shed in it, no weapon should be carried in it for fighting, and no leaves should be beaten off trees except for fodder." Fodder is a name for grass, hay, barley, etc. In another version in the Sahīh Muslim Collection: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I declare inviolable the area between the two lava fields of Madīnah, that its large thorn trees should not be cut down or its game be killed." The meaning: It is forbidden to cut down its trees or kill its game. Its sanctuary lies between its two lava fields, the eastern and the western. A lava field is a land covered with black stones as if it was burned. Madīnah is bordered by Mount Thawr to the north, behind ’Uhud, and by Mount ‘Ayr to the south..

1377
Yuhannas, the freed slave of Az-Zubayr, reported that while sitting with 'Abdullāh ibn Umar at the time of the trial, one of his freed female slaves came and greeted him. She said: "I want to leave, O 'Abu' Abdur-Rahmān. The time has become harsh for us." Thereupon, 'Abdullāh said to her: "Stay, O you Lakā ', for indeed I have heard the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'No one patiently endures its hunger and hardship except that I will be a witness or intercessor for him on the Day of Judgment.'".

Commentary : Allah, the Exalted and Glorified, endowed some places of the earth with particular blessings that He did not give to other places, and He made some of them locations for evils and trials and others for goodness and blessings. The Prophet's Madīnah has been endowed with abundant goodness, blessing, and merit.
In this Hadīth, Yuhannas, the freed slave of Az-Zubayr - or the freed slave of Mus‘ab ibn az-Zubayr - relates that while he was sitting in the company of ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him), "one of his freed female slaves came and greeted him", a greeting of farewell, as she wanted to leave Madīnah. This was at a time in which some tribulations occurred among the Muslims, involving fighting and the like. He was apparently referring to the trial of Al-Harrah, which took place during the reign of Yazīd ibn Mu‘āwiyah. She said: "I want to leave" Madīnah, "O ‘Abu ‘Abdur-Rahmān", the surname of ‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). And she said: "The time has become harsh for us." This demonstrates the reason behind her desire to depart from Madīnah. She meant that famine had become severe at this time because of the trial. Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) disapproved of that and urged her to stay in Madīnah, given the merit of doing so. He said: "Stay, O you Lakā '". The word 'Lakā" is used to refer to a vile person, a slave, a fool who does not benefit from the speech of others, or a child. Ibn' Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) addressed her by this word in a friendly manner and to express disapproval of her desire to depart from Madīnah, for one should not leave it due to difficulty and hardship.
Then, he clarified to her why he enjoined her to stay in Madīnah, and this is because he heard the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) say: "No one patiently endures its hunger and hardship except that I will be a witness or intercessor for him on the Day of Judgment." The intended meaning is that he will be a witness for some of the people of Madīnah and an intercessor for the rest of them; or an intercessor for the disobedient and a witness for the obedient; or a witness for those who die during his lifetime and an intercessor for those who die after him; or the word 'or' here means 'and', in which case the meaning will be that he will be an intercessor and witness for him. This is an additional characteristic besides the intercession for sinners or humankind on the Day of Judgment and besides his testimony over the entire Ummah.
The Hadīth urges dwelling in Madīnah.
It points out the merit of patiently enduring hardship and hunger in Madīnah.
It demonstrates the Prophet's favor upon the people of Madīnah..

1380
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Anti-Christ (Al-Masīh ad-Dajjāl) will come from the east with the intention to attack Madīnah until he will alight behind' Uhud, and then the angels will dissuade his face toward the Levant, and there he will be destroyed.".

Commentary : The Prophet's Madīnah possesses great merits, and Allah Almighty has protected it from evils and ills and the Anti-Christ, preventing him from entering it, as He also protects Makkah from him by virtue of the Prophet's supplication for it.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs that the Anti-Christ will be keen on going to the Prophet's Madīnah, and his primary goal and intention behind entering it will be to destroy and ruin it. "he will alight behind' Uhud", i.e., he will reach the area behind Mount' Uhud, the well-known mountain lying on the outskirts of Madīnah from the north and situated 4 or 5km away from the Prophet's Mosque. In his story in which he met the Anti-Christ, Tamīm ad-Dāri narrated that he said to him: "and I will travel in the land and not leave any town except that I will stay in it for forty nights, except for Makkah and Taybah (Madīnah), as both of them are forbidden for me. Each time I try to enter one of them, an angel with a sword in his hand unsheathed will confront me and bar my way, and there are angels to guard every passage leading to it." [Narrated by Muslim] But, the angels who guard Madīnah will direct him toward the Levant, which nowadays includes Syria, Jordan, Palestine, and Lebanon. The Anti-Christ will come to the Levant, and there he will be destroyed, as Jesus the son of Mary (‘Īsa the son of Mariyam) (peace be upon both of them) will descend at the white minaret in eastern Damascus, placing his hands on the wings of two angels. Then, he will pursue him and find him at the gate of Ludd, where the Messiah, the son of Mary, will kill him. as related in another Hadīth narrated by Muslim and others.
The Anti-Christ was called Masīh because one of his eyes is Mamsūh (effaced); he is one-eyed. He is a person from the children of Adam, and his emergence is one of the major signs of the Day of Judgment. Allah will afflict His servants through him and enable him to do things of which only Allah Almighty is capable: bringing the dead person he will kill back to life, the emergence of worldly flourishment and abundance along with him, his paradise and fire, his two rivers, the treasures of earth going after him, and his command to the sky to rain and it will rain and to the earth to produce plants and it will produce plants. All this will happen by the will and power of Allah Almighty. He will come on this day from the east. In a Hadīth narrated by At-Tirmidhi, Abu Bakr as-Siddīq (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Ant-Christ will emerge from a land in the east called Khurāsān," which is located in the east of Iraq..

1381
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A time will come for the people when a man will invite his cousin and relative: 'Come to prosperity, come to prosperity.' But Madīnah is better for them if they only knew. By the One in Whose Hand my soul is, none amongst them will go out with a dislike for it except that Allah will make someone better succeed him therein. Indeed, Madīnah is like a bellows, which expels the impurities. The Last Hour will not come until Madīnah banishes its evils just as a bellows eliminates the impurities of iron.".

Commentary : The Prophet's Madīnah is a blessed spot on earth. Allah rid it of impurities and chose it to be the place of Hijrah for the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), the incubator of his mission and the foundation of his state.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs that a time will come for the people when a man will call his cousin and relative, saying: "Come to prosperity", i.e., leave Madīnah and hasten to prosperity. By this, he meant that countries would be conquered by the Muslims, and thus, there would be abundant fortunes. Consequently, many of those who left the Hejaz and the Arab land would be inclined to the fortunes they found in these conquered countries and would take them as a homeland and invite their relatives in Madīnah to come to them, given the difficult living there. But in reality, staying in Madīnah is better for them as it is the sanctuary of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and his refuge and the place where divine revelation and blessings descended if they only knew the religious benefits and results of staying in it, compared to which the worldly transient and fleeting fortunes they find in living elsewhere would seem trivial. Or the meaning: If they only had any knowledge, i.e., Would that they were among the people of knowledge - by way of emphasis and rebuke.
Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) took an oath, saying: "By the One in Whose Hand my soul is", and this is swearing by Allah, Who possesses the life and soul, "none amongst them will go out" i.e., none of those who live in it will abandon and leave it, disliking and being disinterested in it, or disinterested the reward for dwelling in it, except that Allah, the Glorified and Exalted, will make a better person than him will succeed him - who will be born in Madīnah or move to it from another place. Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned that it banishes evil people from it, and they do not bear to live therein. Only the righteous believers bear to stay in it. Indeed, it does not leave in it anyone in whose heart there is wickedness and corruption. Rather, it distinguishes him from people with sincere hearts and drives him out, as fire separates bad iron from good one. A bellows is the leather by which the blacksmith blows into the fire. The Hour will not occur until Madīnah banishes its evils just as a bellows eliminates the impurities of iron. The impurities of iron are the dirt and filth extricated therefrom by fire. It is said: It is meant to refer here to some of the hypocrites who lived during the lifetime of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). Otherwise, many righteous and virtuous people left Madīnah after the Prophet's lifetime, and some wicked and evil people remained therein. It is also said That Madīnah banishes its evils, which probably applies to the time of the Dajjāl and may also apply to different eras.
The Hadīth demonstrates some merits of Madīnah.
It includes one of the signs proving the Prophet's prophethood..

Jābir ibn Samurah reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Indeed, Allah Almighty named Madīnah Tābah.".

Commentary : The Prophet's Madīnah is a blessed spot on earth. Allah has purified it from filth and has chosen it to be the Prophet's destination of Hijrah (immigration), the incubator of his call, and the basis of his state.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs that one of the names by which Allah Almighty called Madīnah is 'Tābah'. The meaning is that Allah Almighty named it in the Preserved Tablet or commanded His Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) to name it as such in response to the hypocrites concerning its name as Yathrib. Tābah is derived from At-Tīb, which means good scent, or from something Tayyib (good) or something Tāhir (pure), for it has been purified from Shirk (polytheism). It is said: Because it is Tayyibah (good) for those who dwell in it. And it is said: Because living in it is Tayyib (good). It is also said: Because its soil and air are Tayyib. He who stays in it finds a good scent in its soil and walls that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Madīnah used to be called Yathrib before the Prophet's Hijrah to it. In the Two Sahīh Collections, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I have been commanded to go to a town which will devour all towns. People call it Yathrib, but it is Madīnah." He (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) seemed to have disliked the name Yathrib, for it comes from "Tathrīb", which means censure and punishment, or from "Tharb", which means corruption, and because it was the name used in Jāhiliyyah. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to change bad names. Also, Allah Almighty calls it Madīnah in several Qur'anic verses. When something has numerous names, this denotes its greatness.
As for calling it "Yathrib" in the Qur'anic verse that reads: {And [remember] when a group of them said: "O people of Yathrib, you cannot withstand [the enemy attack], so go back"} [Surat al-Ahzāb: 13], this is taken as a quotation of the words of the hypocrites whose hearts had sickness..

1386
Abu Hurayrah reported that Abu al-Qāsim (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever intends to do harm to the people of this city - meaning Madīnah - Allah will make him dissolve just as salt dissolves in water.".

Commentary : Prophetic Madīnah is a blessed spot on earth. Allah has purified it from filth and has chosen it to be the Prophet's destination in his Hijrah (emigration), the incubator of his call, and the basis of his state.
In this Hadīth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) says that Allah Almighty defends Madīnah and its righteous believing dwellers. So, whoever intends to do harm to the people of Madīnah and is determined to hurt them, Allah will make him dissolve as salt dissolves in water, and this will be in the Hereafter as mentioned in Sahīh Muslim: "No one intends evil for the people of Madīnah except that Allah will make him melt in fire like the melting of lead;" so He made the punishment in Hellfire. This could also mean: Whoever has ill will towards it during the Prophet's lifetime, Muslims will be spared his harm, and his plot will fade away just as salt fades away in water. This could also be in reference to whoever has an ill will towards it generally in this life, so Allah will not grant him a respite and will not grant him authority; rather, He will soon eliminate him..

Abu Salamah ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān reported: ‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn Abi Sa‘īd al-Khudri passed by me, and I said to him: What did you hear your father say about the mosque that was founded on piety? He said: I heard my father say: I entered upon the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) in the house of one of his wives and I said: O Messenger of Allah, which of the two mosques is the one founded on piety? He said: He took a handful of pebbles and threw them on the ground and then said: It is this very mosque of yours, i.e., the Madīnah Mosque. I said: I bear witness that this is how I heard your father make mention of it..

Commentary : Piety means fearing Allah and being heedful of Him in all deeds, and abiding by His commands, prohibitions, and rulings in all aspects of life. The Muslim must adopt piety and must seek to attain it. Allah Almighty commended piety and the pious people in the Qur’an.
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i Abu Salamah ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn ‘Awf reports that ‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn Abi Sa‘īd al-Khudri passed by him, so he asked him: What did you hear your father, Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) say in relation to what is meant by the mosque that was founded on piety, which Allah Almighty described in His statement: {A mosque that was founded on piety from the first day}? [Surat at-Tawbah: 108] That is to say, it was founded and built on fearing Allah and obeying Him from the very beginning.
He told him that Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) entered upon the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) when he was in the house of one of his wives and asked him: "Which of the two mosques is the one founded on piety?" The "two mosques" refer to Qubā’ Mosque and the Madīnah Mosque, which was built by the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) took a handful of small pebbles from the ground and threw them on the ground, then he answered the question of Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) saying: "It is this very mosque of yours," i.e., the Madīnah Mosque. This is meant as a form of exaggeration in clarifying that it is the Madīnah Mosque.
Thereupon, Abu Salamah ibn ‘Abdur-Rahmān said to ‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn Abi Sa‘īd: "I bear witness that this is how I heard your father," i.e., Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), "make mention of it," i.e., he had mentioned to me the like of what you mentioned to me about it.
The Hadīth clarifies the merit of the Prophet's Mosque and the fact that it was founded on piety..

Jābir reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) saw a woman, so he came to his wife Zaynab, while she was tanning a Manī’ah (piece of leather), and satisfied his need. Then, he came out to his Companions and said: "The woman advances in the shape of a devil and retires in the shape of a devil. So, when any of you sees a woman, he should come to his wife, for that will repel what he feels in his heart." [In another version]: He did not mention: "retires in the shape of a devil.".

Commentary : Islam has protected women from all evil, and the Shariah has commanded women to avoid Tabarruj (impermissible exposure of adornment), so as not to arouse desires and become a cause of tempting others.
In this Hadīth, Jābir ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reports that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) saw a woman, as if he saw her all of a sudden. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) went to his wife, Zaynab bint Jahsh, to satisfy his human lust and maintain his chastity. Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with her) was tanning a piece of leather, i.e., rubbing it. "Manī’ah": it is the leather once put in tannin. He did this only to clarify to people and guide them to what they should do, as he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) taught them with his acts and words. As for what he felt in his heart, he is not to be blamed for it, and it does not negatively affect his status. It is a requirement of human nature and lust. It must not be thought that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did this out of a whim or for being overcome by lust, far be it from him. Rather, he did this by way of legislation and to set an example and to ward off what is expected to happen.
Then, he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The woman advances in the shape of a devil and retires in the shape of a devil" referring to personal desires and inviting others to be tempted by her, given the natural inclination for women that Allah Almighty has instilled in men and the pleasure they get by looking at women and at whatever is related to them. The woman is, thus like the devil who calls to evil through his whispering and through making evil appealing to them. This is because her advance calls men to look stealthily at her just like the devil that calls to evil and whispering. The same applies to her turning back because the gaze is the heart's guide, so when she turns back, she attracts a man's gaze and he tries to take backdoors to reach her, as seeing her from all directions is a cause of corruption.
Then, he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "So, when any of you sees a woman," i.e., likes and admires her, because seeing something that arouses one's amazement, leads to admiring it. Another version by Muslim reads: "When any of you admires a woman and his heart is captivated by her, he should go to his wife and have sexual intercourse with her." Here he said: "He should come to his wife," i.e., and have sexual intercourse with her. "For that will repel what he feels in his heart," i.e., his sexual intercourse with his wife will repel what he feels in his heart and will satiate his lust and calm him down.
The Hadīth indicates that there is nothing wrong with one asking his wife for sexual intercourse during daytime or at any other time, even if she is preoccupied with something that could be postponed because a man might be overcome by lust and the delay might cause him harm in his body, or in his heart and sight.
It also denotes how the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) taught his Companions the way of ridding the devil's whispers by going for what is lawful instead of what is unlawful..

Salamah ibn al-Akwa‘ reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) allowed the Mut‘ah marriage (temporary marriage) for three days in the year of Awtās, then he forbade it..

Commentary : Islam has established the legal marriage system to protect the progeny and people's honor. It has forbidden all means of enjoying women that were widespread in the pre-Islamic era of ignorance, which do not protect women's rights.
In this Hadīth, Salamah ibn al-Akwa‘ (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) permitted and allowed his Companions to enter into Mut‘ah marriage for three days and that was when it became so hard for them to stay unmarried in the Battle of Awtās, which took place in the same year after the Conquest of Makkah, i.e., 8 AH. The Mut‘ah marriage is a fixed-term marriage, with the word "tamattu‘" (enjoyment) verbally stated, in return for an amount of money. Awtās is a valley in Tā’if where the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) distributed the spoils of Hunayn and Awtās. Then, he forbade the Mut‘ah marriage after those three days and made it permanently forbidden until the Day of Judgment.
The Mut‘ah marriage was known during the early stages of Islam and the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) did not forbid them from it during their travels, given their need for it. However, he forbade them from it during their stay and residence in their countries. The ruling of the Mut‘ah marriage passed through various phases, as the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade them from it more than once, then he ordered them to engage in it at various times until he made it permanently forbidden. Forbidding the Mut‘ah marriage was reported in many narrations, which point out that the prohibition was in the Conquest of Makkah, which is the most famous opinion, or in the Battle of Awtās, or in the Battle of Khaybar, or during the Prophet's last days in the Farewell Hajj. It was a permanent prohibition and not a temporary one, thus leaving no room for any difference of opinion among the jurists and the leading scholars of the Ummah. Only some of the Shiites hold a different opinion whose opinion does not count..

‘Atā’ reported: Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh came for ‘Umrah. We came to his abode, and the people asked him about certain matters, and then they mentioned Mut'ah. Thereupon, he said: "Yes, we engaged in Mut'ah during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and Abu Bakr and 'Umar.".

Commentary : Islam has established the Shar‘i marriage system to protect progeny and honor. It has forbidden all means of enjoying women that were widespread in Jāhiliyyah (the pre-Islamic era of ignorance), which do not protect their rights.
In this Hadīth, the Tābi‘i ‘Atā’ ibn Abi Rabāh informs that Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Makkah to perform ‘Umrah, and some of the Tābi‘is came to him in his dwelling and began to ask him about religious matters and seek his Fatwas on them. This was the attitude of the Tābi‘is; they were keen on receiving knowledge from the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him). Then, they asked him about Mut‘ah marriage, in which a man enjoys a woman in return for compensation agreed upon by them and for a specified period, and the marriage ends with the elapse of this period. In response, Jābir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Yes, we engaged in Mut‘ah during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and Abu Bakr and ‘Umar," i.e., during the reign of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and during the reign of ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). In another version by Muslim: "We used to engage in Mut'ah in return for a handful of dates and flour during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and Abu Bakr, until 'Umar forbade it in the case of 'Amr ibn Hurayth." 'Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) married a woman by Mut'ah marriage during the reign of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and she got pregnant from him. The statement of Jābir and the action of 'Amr (may Allah be pleased with both of them) are taken to indicate that the Prophet's prohibition of such marriage did not reach them.
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) permitted the Mut'ah marriage in the beginning and then forbade it later during the battle of Khyber until the Day of Judgment, and he declared it unlawful during the Farewell Hajj, as narrated by Al-Bukhāri, Muslim, and others. In a Hadīth in the Two Sahīh Collections, ‘Ali ibn Abi Tālib (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the Mut‘ah marriage of women as well as eating the flesh of domestic donkeys. In the Sahīh Muslim Collection: Salamah ibn al-Akwa‘ (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) allowed the Mut‘ah marriage for three days in the year of Awtās, and then he forbade it..
