Hadith 2506

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، وَعَنْ طَاوُسٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ ، قَالَ : قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ صُبْحَ رَابِعَةٍ مِنْ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ مُهِلِّينَ بِالْحَجِّ لَا يَخْلِطُهُمْ شَيْءٌ ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا أَمَرَنَا فَجَعَلْنَاهَا عُمْرَةً ، وَأَنْ نَحِلَّ إِلَى نِسَائِنَا فَفَشَتْ فِي ذَلِكَ الْقَالَةُ ، قَالَ عَطَاءٌ : فَقَالَ جَابِرٌ : فَيَرُوحُ أَحَدُنَا إِلَى مِنًى ، وَذَكَرُهُ يَقْطُرُ مَنِيًّا ، فَقَالَ جَابِرٌ بِكَفِّهِ : فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَامَ خَطِيبًا ، فَقَالَ : بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ أَقْوَامًا يَقُولُونَ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، وَاللَّهِ لَأَنَا أَبَرُّ وَأَتْقَى لِلَّهِ مِنْهُمْ ، وَلَوْ أَنِّي اسْتَقْبَلْتُ مِنْ أَمْرِي مَا اسْتَدْبَرْتُ مَا أَهْدَيْتُ ، وَلَوْلَا أَنَّ مَعِي الْهَدْيَ لأَحْلَلْتُ ، فَقَامَ سُرَاقَةُ بْنُ مَالِكِ بْنِ جُعْشُمٍ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هِيَ لَنَا أَوْ لِلْأَبَدِ ، فَقَالَ : لَا ، بَلْ لِلْأَبَدِ ، قَالَ : وَجَاءَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ، فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا : يَقُولُ لَبَّيْكَ بِمَا أَهَلَّ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَقَالَ : وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ : لَبَّيْكَ بِحَجَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُقِيمَ عَلَى إِحْرَامِهِ ، وَأَشْرَكَهُ فِي الْهَدْيِ .
Narrated Ibn `Abbas: The Prophet (along with his companions) reached Mecca in the morning of the fourth of Dhul-Hijja assuming Ihram for Hajj only. So when we arrived at Mecca, the Prophet ordered us to change our intentions of the Ihram for `Umra and that we could finish our Ihram after performing the `Umra and could go to our wives (for sexual intercourse). The people began talking about that. Jabir said surprisingly, "Shall we go to Mina while semen is dribbling from our male organs?" Jabir moved his hand while saying so. When this news reached the Prophet he delivered a sermon and said, "I have been informed that some peoples were saying so and so; By Allah I fear Allah more than you do, and am more obedient to Him than you. If I had known what I know now, I would not have brought the Hadi (sacrifice) with me and had the Hadi not been with me, I would have finished the Ihram." At that Suraqa bin Malik stood up and asked "O Allah's Apostle! Is this permission for us only or is it forever?" The Prophet replied, "It is forever." In the meantime `Ali bin Abu Talib came from Yemen and was saying Labbaik for what the Prophet has intended. (According to another man, `Ali was saying Labbaik for Hajj similar to Allah's Apostle's). The Prophet told him to keep on the Ihram and let him share the Hadi with him.

Hadith Commentary:
From this, the subject of the chapter is established.
In the chain of narration, it is mentioned that Ibn Jurayj heard this hadith from both Ata and Tawus.
Hafiz (Ibn Hajar) said: In my view, the narration from Tawus is disconnected (munqati‘), because Ibn Jurayj did not hear from Mujahid and Ikrimah, and Tawus was their contemporary. However, he did hear from Ata, because Ata came ten years after those individuals.
The translation of the chapter is derived from this: The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) took sixty-three camels from Madinah for sacrifice, and Ali (radi Allahu anhu) brought thirty-seven camels from Yemen.
Altogether, there were one hundred camels, and Ali (radi Allahu anhu) included the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) in those camels (i.e., made him a partner in the sacrifice).

Hadith Commentary:
(1)
The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) sent Ali (radi Allahu anhu) to Yemen before the Farewell Pilgrimage (Hajjat al-Wada') to collect the khums (one-fifth share). He also donned the same ihram (state of consecration) as the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and brought along 37 camels, while the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) set out from Madinah Tayyibah with 63 camels. In this way, the total number of sacrificial animals became one hundred. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) included him (Ali radi Allahu anhu) in the sacrificial animals.

(2)
According to the Hanafis, partnership in sacrificial animals is not permissible, because once they have been designated for worship, partnership in them is not allowed. The Hanafis respond to the hadith by saying that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) included Ali (radi Allahu anhu) in the reward (thawab) of the hady (sacrificial animals). In any case, the hadith is clear in its meaning that even after designation, someone can be included in the sacrifice, and there is no harm in this.
