Hadith 278
278 صحيح حديث ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا خَرَجَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ أَمَر بِالْحَرْبَةِ فَتُوضَعُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَيُصَلي إِلَيْهَا، وَالنَّاسُ وَرَاءَهُ، وَكَانَ يَفْعَلُ ذلِكَ فِي السَّفَرِ، فَمِنْ ثَمَّ اتَّخَذَهَا الأُمَرَاءُ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrated that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would go out (from Madinah) on the day of Eid, he would order that a small spear (lance) be fixed in the ground. When it was placed in front of him, he would face towards it and perform the prayer, and the people would stand behind him. He used to do the same while traveling. (Because of this) the caliphs of the Muslims made it a habit to keep a spear with them.

Hadith 280
280 صحيح حديث أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى بِلاَلاً يُؤَذِّنُ، فَجَعَلْتُ أَتَتَبَّعُ فَاهُ ههُنَا وَههُنَا بِالأَذانِ
Sayyiduna Abi Juhaifah saw Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) giving the adhan. He says, I also began turning my face side to side along with his mouth.
Hadith 281
281 صحيح حديث أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي قُبَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ مِنْ أَدَمٍ، وَرَأَيْتُ بِلاَلاً أَخَذَ وَضُوءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَرَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يَبْتَدِرُونَ ذَاكَ الْوَضوءَ، فَمَنْ أَصَابَ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا تَمَسَّحَ بِهِ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يُصِبْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا أَخَذَ مِنْ بَلَلِ يَدِ صَاحِبِه، ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ بِلاَلاً أَخَذَ عَنَزَةً فَرَكَزَهَا، وَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ مُشَمِّرًا، صَلَّى إِلَى الْعَنَزَةِ بِالنَّاسِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَرَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ وَالدَّوَابَّ يَمُرُّونَ مِنْ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْعَنَزَةِ
Sayyiduna Abu Juhaifah Wahb bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in a red leather tent, and I also saw that Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) was helping the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) perform ablution, and every person was trying to get ahead of the other to obtain some of the water from his ablution. If anyone managed to get even a little water, he would rub it on himself, and if someone could not get any water, he would try to obtain some moisture from his companion’s hand. Then I saw Bilal pick up a spear, which had an iron tip at the bottom, and he fixed it (as a sutrah). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out (from the tent) wearing a red garment, with his lower garment raised up to his shins, and he faced the spear and led the people in two rak‘ahs of prayer. I saw that men and animals were passing beyond the spear.
Hadith 282
282 صحيح حديث عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: أَقْبَلْتُ رَاكِبًا عَلَى حِمَارٍ أَتَانٍ، وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ قَدْ نَاهَزْتُ الاحْتِلاَمَ، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي بِمِنَى إِلَى غَيْرِ جِدَارٍ، فَمَرَرْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ بَعْضِ الصَّفِّ، وَأَرْسَلْتُ الأَتَانَ تَرْتَعُ، فَدَخَلْتُ فِي الصَّفِّ، فَلَمْ يُنْكَرْ ذلِكَ عَلَيَ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once I set out riding a donkey, and at that time I was close to reaching puberty. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was performing prayer at Mina, and there was no wall (barrier) in front of him. I passed in front of some of the rows and left the donkey to graze. It began to graze, and I joined the row for prayer (for the prayer). Yet, no one objected to me for this.
