Entering ihram and the talbiyah

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered ihram after the prayer.
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for al-Bazzar's teacher, whose case is different; al-Tirmidhi declared his hadith hasan (good).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When the mount of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) rose up, he began reciting the talbiyah.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains a narrator whom I do not know.

Sayyiduna Imam Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did each of these. He recited the talbiyah when his mount rose up with him, and he also recited the talbiyah when he was at the open ground (al-Bayda'), before his mount had risen up with him.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains a narrator, Hammad bin Shu'ayb, who is da'if (weak).

Sayyiduna Abu Dawud al-Mazini (may Allah be pleased with him), who had the honour of taking part in the Battle of Badr, narrates: We set out with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the mosque of Dhu al-Hulayfah and prayed four rak'ahs in it. Then he recited the talbiyah in the mosque, and the people who were in the mosque heard him, so they said: "He began the talbiyah from the mosque." Then, when he mounted his riding camel, he recited the talbiyah, and the people who were near the mosque said: "He recited the talbiyah when his mount rose up with him." Then, when he came up onto the open plain (al-Bayda'), he recited the talbiyah, and the people who were there heard him and said that he began the talbiyah from the plain. All of them spoke the truth.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains a narrator, Ishaq bin Sa'id bin Jubayr; al-Dhahabi says: he is majhul (unknown). The chain of this report also contains a group of narrators whom I do not know.

Abdullah bin Urwah narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) while we were with him, having set out to perform Umrah. When we came down from the hillock into the valley, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) performed the ritual bath (ghusl) and prayed two rak'ahs; we too performed the ritual bath with him and prayed two rak'ahs. Then he began reciting this talbiyah: "Labbayk Allahumma labbayk, labbayka la sharika laka labbayk, inna al-hamda wa al-ni'mata laka wa al-mulk, la sharika lak (Here I am, O Allah, here I am. Here I am, You have no partner, here I am. Indeed, all praise and blessings are Yours, and the dominion too; You have no partner)." Abdullah bin Urwah narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) say: "By Allah, these are (the words of) the talbiyah of the Messenger of Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did exactly this: he entered ihram after the prayer."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains a narrator whom I do not know.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The words of the talbiyah of Sayyiduna Musa (peace be upon him) were: "Here is Your servant, the son of Your two servants (that is, the son of Your male servant and Your female servant)." The words of the talbiyah of Sayyiduna Isa (peace be upon him) were: "Here is Your servant, the son of Your female servant." The words of the talbiyah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were: "Here I am; You have no partner."
Al-Bazzar recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Ata' bin al-Sa'ib, who is thiqah (trustworthy) but suffered from confusion (ikhtilat). The remaining narrators of this report are the narrators of the Sahih.

Al-Dahhak bin Muzahim narrates: When Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) recited the talbiyah, he would say: "Labbayk, labbayk Allahumma labbayk, la sharika laka labbayk, inna al-hamda wa al-ni'mata laka wa al-mulk, la sharika lak (Here I am, here I am, O Allah, here I am. You have no partner, here I am. Indeed, all praise and blessings are Yours, and the dominion too; You have no partner)." The narrator says: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) would say: "Recite only this, for this is the talbiyah of the Messenger of Allah."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Amr bin Ma'dikarib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I remember that in the days of Ignorance (Jahiliyyah), when we performed Hajj of the House, we used to recite: "Here is the tribe of Zubayd, which has come to You under compulsion; it has come warily, looking askance; they have crossed barren plains and rugged mountains in fear, and they have left behind idols that are abandoned and empty (forsaken)." And today we recite what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught us: "Labbayk Allahumma labbayk, labbayka la sharika laka labbayk, inna al-hamda wa al-ni'mata laka wa al-mulk, la sharika lak (Here I am, O Allah, here I am. Here I am, You have no partner, here I am. Indeed, all praise and blessings are Yours, and the dominion too; You have no partner)."
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir, al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; however, he narrated these words: I remember that we were from Qarn, and when we came for Hajj we used to say: "Here I am, expressing reverence, and presenting my excuse before You. Here is the tribe of Zubayd, which has come to You under compulsion; they have crossed barren plains and rugged mountains in alarm, and they have left the idols behind in such a state that they remain abandoned and forsaken." And I remember that we used to halt in the low ground of the valley of Muhassir, fearing that the jinn might snatch us away. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Move up away from the low ground of Uranah, for when they (the jinn) accept Islam, they are your brothers." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also taught us the talbiyah. Then the narrator mentioned the hadith as before. Its chain contains a narrator, Sharqi bin Qutami, who is da'if (weak). Al-Bazzar says: its chain is not established.
In al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, al-Tabarani recorded these additional words: "In the days of Ignorance we used to prevent people from standing (wuquf), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to stand between them and Uranah, for on the evening of Arafah their place of standing used to be the low ground of the valley of Muhassir, out of fear that the jinn might snatch them away. The rest of the report is as before."

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: After Sayyiduna Isma'il (peace be upon him), people remained upon Islam. Satan kept telling people various things, his aim being to turn people away from Islam, until he introduced these words into their talbiyah: "Here I am, O Allah, here I am; You have no partner, except a partner who belongs to You, whom You own, and whatever he owns (You own as well)." Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Satan kept doing this until he took people out of Islam into polytheism (shirk).
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The talbiyah of the polytheists was: "O Allah, here I am, here I am; O Allah, here I am, here I am; You have no partner, except a partner who belongs to You, whom You own, and whatever he owns, You own it as well." So Allah Almighty revealed this verse: "Do you have, among those (slaves) whom your right hands possess, partners in what We have provided for you, so that you (and those you own) are equal in it, and you fear them as you fear one another?"
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains Hammad bin Shu'ayb, who is da'if (weak).

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite this talbiyah: "Labbayk Allahumma labbayk, labbayka la sharika laka labbayk, inna al-hamda wa al-ni'mata laka wa al-mulk, la sharika lak (Here I am, O Allah, here I am. Here I am, You have no partner, here I am. Indeed, all praise and blessings are Yours, and the dominion too; You have no partner)."
Abu Ya'la recorded it through the narration of Abdullah bin Numayr from Isma'il, and he did not give his lineage. If he is Ibn Abi Khalid, then he is one of the narrators of the Sahih; if he is Isma'il bin Ibrahim bin Muhajir, then he is da'if (weak). He (Ibn Numayr) narrated from both of them.

Abdullah bin Abi Salamah narrates: Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) heard a man saying: "Here I am, O Lord of the Ways of Ascent (Dhu al-Ma'arij)." Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "He is indeed the Lord of the Ways of Ascent, but when we were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), we did not say these words."
Ahmad, Abu Ya'la and al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except that the narrator Abdullah did not hear from Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him). And Allah knows best.

Al-Bazzar recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Muhammad bin Muhazzam; no one has criticised him, and Ibn Abi Hatim mentioned him. Its remaining narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood at Arafat. When he said: "Here I am, O Allah, here I am", he also said: "Indeed, the (true) good is the good of the Hereafter."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its chain is hasan (good).

Sayyiduna Amir bin Rabi'ah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Any believer who recites the talbiyah from forenoon until the sun sets, then when the sun sets, it sets with his sins, and that believer becomes once again as he was on the day his mother gave birth to him."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains a narrator, Asim bin Ubaydullah, who is da'if (weak).

It was asked: "O Messenger of Allah, of Paradise?" He said: "Yes."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat with two chains, the narrators of one of which are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Jibril came to me and instructed me to recite the talbiyah aloud."
Ahmad recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Ja'far bin Ayyash, who is one of the Tabi'un of the people of Madinah; Abu Hazim Salamah bin Dinar narrated from him, and no one has criticised him. The remaining narrators of this report are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Jibril instructed me to raise my voice when reciting the talbiyah, for it is one of the distinctive rites of Hajj."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We set out with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to perform Hajj. When we reached al-Rawha', our throats had become hoarse. The narrator says: that is, from reciting the talbiyah aloud.

Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir from the narrator Ibrahim himself, as you can see, and he also gave an entry on his biography; then he recorded it from him from his father Khallad, as will come later. It is possible that he heard it from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and also from his father. The chain of this report contains a narrator, Ibn Ishaq, who is thiqah (trustworthy) but a mudallis (one who conceals defects in the chain).

Sayyiduna Khallad bin Suwayd (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: 'O Muhammad, be one who does 'ajj and thajj.'"
(The narrator says:) By 'ajj is meant reciting the talbiyah, and by thajj is meant shedding blood (that is, offering sacrifices).

recorded this narration: "Sayyiduna Jibril (peace be upon him) came to me and instructed me to command my Companions to recite the talbiyah aloud."
