Hadith 4521

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ , حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ , حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ , أَخْبَرَنِي كُرَيْبٌ , عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ , قَالَ : " يَطَّوَّفُ الرَّجُلُ بِالْبَيْتِ مَا كَانَ حَلَالًا حَتَّى يُهِلَّ بِالْحَجِّ ، فَإِذَا رَكِبَ إِلَى عَرَفَةَ , فَمَنْ تَيَسَّرَ لَهُ هَدِيَّةٌ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ أَوِ الْبَقَرِ أَوِ الْغَنَمِ مَا تَيَسَّرَ لَهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ , أَيَّ ذَلِكَ شَاءَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ إِنْ لَمْ يَتَيَسَّرْ لَهُ فَعَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ فِي الْحَجِّ , وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ , فَإِنْ كَانَ آخِرُ يَوْمٍ مِنَ الْأَيَّامِ الثَّلَاثَةِ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِ , ثُمَّ لِيَنْطَلِقْ حَتَّى يَقِفَ بِعَرَفَاتٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى أَنْ يَكُونَ الظَّلَامُ ، ثُمَّ لِيَدْفَعُوا مِنْ عَرَفَاتٍ إِذَا أَفَاضُوا مِنْهَا حَتَّى يَبْلُغُوا جَمْعًا الَّذِي يَبِيتُونَ بِهِ , ثُمَّ لِيَذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَأَكْثِرُوا التَّكْبِيرَ وَالتَّهْلِيلَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُصْبِحُوا , ثُمَّ أَفِيضُوا , فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا يُفِيضُونَ , وَقَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى : ثُمَّ أَفِيضُوا مِنْ حَيْثُ أَفَاضَ النَّاسُ وَاسْتَغْفِرُوا اللَّهَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ سورة البقرة آية 199 حَتَّى تَرْمُوا الْجَمْرَةَ " .
Narrated Ibn `Abbas: A man who wants to perform the Hajj (from Mecca) can perform the Tawaf around the Ka`ba as long as he is not in the state of Ihram till he assumes the Ihram for Hajj. Then, if he rides and proceeds to `Arafat, he should take a Hadi (i.e. animal for sacrifice), either a camel or a cow or a sheep, whatever he can afford; but if he cannot afford it, he should fast for three days during the Hajj before the day of `Arafat, but if the third day of his fasting happens to be the day of `Arafat (i.e. 9th of Dhul-Hijja) then it is no sin for him (to fast on it). Then he should proceed to `Arafat and stay there from the time of the `Asr prayer till darkness falls. Then the pilgrims should proceed from `Arafat, and when they have departed from it, they reach Jam' (i.e. Al-Muzdalifa) where they ask Allah to help them to be righteous and dutiful to Him, and there they remember Allah greatly or say Takbir (i.e. Allah is Greater) and Tahlil (i.e. None has the right to be worshipped but Allah) repeatedly before dawn breaks. Then, after offering the morning (Fajr) prayer you should pass on (to Mina) for the people used to do so and Allah said:-- "Then depart from the place whence all the people depart. And ask for Allah's Forgiveness. Truly! Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (2.199) Then you should go on doing so till you throw pebbles over the Jamra.

Hadith Commentary:
1.
There are two situations of becoming lawful (halal):
a.
If a person has been residing in Makkah for a considerable period, then as long as he is free from the restrictions of ihram, he should continue to perform tawaf of the House of Allah (Baytullah) from time to time.
b.
If someone comes from outside Makkah having donned the ihram for umrah, then after performing umrah and becoming lawful (halal), as long as he remains in Makkah, he should continue to perform tawaf of the House of Allah until he dons the ihram for Hajj.

2.
In the plain of Arafat, the Asr prayer is performed together with the Zuhr prayer as jam‘ taqdim (combining at the earlier time).
After Asr, one should remain in the plain of Arafat until sunset.
After sunset, one should depart for Muzdalifah without performing the Maghrib prayer; upon arrival there, the Maghrib prayer should be performed together with the Isha prayer as jam‘ ta’khir (combining at the later time).
It should be noted that the standing (wuquf) at Arafah is the fundamental pillar of Hajj; without it, Hajj is not valid.
It is better to arrive in the plain of Arafah before sunset.
If, due to some necessity, one is unable to reach the plain of Arafah before sunset, then arriving there before Fajr is also permissible.
