ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَدَاةَ الْعَقَبَةِ وَهُوَ عَلَى نَاقَتِهِ : " الْقُطْ لِي حَصًى " ، فَلَقَطْتُ لَهُ سَبْعَ حَصَيَاتٍ ، هُنَّ حَصَى الْخَذْفِ ، فَجَعَلَ يَنْفُضُهُنَّ فِي كَفِّهِ ، وَيَقُولُ : " أَمْثَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ فَارْمُوا " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِيَّاكُمْ وَالْغُلُوَّ فِي الدِّينِ ، فَإِنَّهُ أَهْلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمُ الْغُلُوُّ فِي الدِّينِ " .
´It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said:` “On the morning of ‘Aqabah, when he was atop his she-camel, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Pick up some pebbles for me.’ So I picked up seven pebbles for him, suitable for Khadhf.* He began to toss them in his hand, saying: ‘Throw something like these.’ Then he said: ‘O people, beware of exaggeration in religious matters for those who came before you were doomed because of exaggeration in religious matters.’”
Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊
Pebbles for stoning (rami) can be taken from any place, even if they are taken from Mina itself.
Only those pebbles are prohibited which have already been thrown at the Jamarat.
➋
It is commonly believed among the public that pebbles for rami must be collected from Muzdalifah; this is not correct.
The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had taken seven pebbles from Mina itself.
He did not collect the pebbles for all four days at once.
➌
Washing the selected pebbles for rami is a baseless issue.
It has no significance.
➍
In any matter of religion, exceeding the limit set by the Sunnah is an act that pleases Shaytan.
Throwing small pebbles according to the Sunnah causes Shaytan distress,
because by this the believer attains reward.
