Bukhari

Hadith Commentary:
A person is deceived only once, thereafter he remains cautious.
It has been rightly said:
A man is shaped after enduring countless setbacks;
Henna reveals its color only after being ground upon a stone.

Hadith Commentary:
(1)
An experienced and astute Muslim becomes alert after being deceived once, but a heedless Muslim continues to be deceived repeatedly. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used these words on the occasion when Abu ‘Azza Jumahi was taken captive by the Muslims in the Battle of Badr. He mentioned his family and poverty before the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam). The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), showing kindness, released him without ransom. However, he later came to fight against the Muslims in the Battle of Uhud, and the Muslims captured him again. He once more presented excuses, upon which the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said:
“You cannot go to Makkah now.
A believer is not bitten from the same hole twice.”
After this, he (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) ordered him to be killed.
(Fath al-Bari: 10/651)

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: According to Imam Abu Hanifah rahimahullah, Imam Shafi’i rahimahullah, and Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal rahimahullah, the arrival circumambulation (tawaf al-qudum) is not obligatory (wajib) for those performing Hajj Ifrad or Hajj Qiran. If a person arrives in Makkah at such a constrained time that, were he to perform tawaf al-qudum, he would miss the standing at Arafat—which, by consensus, is the greatest pillar of Hajj and without which Hajj is invalid—then he should proceed to Arafat without performing tawaf al-qudum. In this case, no expiatory sacrifice (dam) will be required of him.

However, according to Imam Malik rahimahullah, Abu Thawr rahimahullah, and some Shafi’i scholars, tawaf al-qudum is obligatory (wajib). If it is omitted, then the sacrifice of an animal becomes necessary. Qadi Shawkani has also considered tawaf al-qudum obligatory based on your (the Prophet’s) practice. But the position of Ibn Abbas radi Allahu ta’ala anhu is that if a person does not have a sacrificial animal (hady), then he should not perform the circumambulation of the House (Bayt Allah) before the standing at Arafat. If he does perform the circumambulation, then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam commanded those who did not have a sacrificial animal to make this tawaf an ‘umrah; thus, he will become a mutamatti‘ and will no longer remain a mufrid or qarin.

However, if he does have a sacrificial animal, then he may perform tawaf al-qudum and sa‘i. To say regarding this that Ibn Abbas radi Allahu ta’ala anhu did not consider tawaf al-qudum for the mufrid is not correct. And Ibn Abbas radi Allahu ta’ala anhu was considered to have been afflicted by the tribulations of the world because he became the governor of Basrah during the era of Ali radi Allahu ta’ala anhu, whereas Ibn Umar radi Allahu ta’ala anhu did not accept any office or position.

Benefits and Issues:
To test someone who has already been tested is a very grave mistake.
