Hud bin Shihab bin Abbad narrates from his father, from his grandfather, that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by some tents at Arafat and asked: "Whose tents are these?" We said: Of the people of Abd al-Qays. He prayed for good for them and forbade them from fasting on the day of Arafah.
The narrator says: My father and Taliq bin Muhammad al-Khuza'i performed Hajj, and the two of them differed about fasting on the day of Arafah. My father said: Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) shall judge between you and me. So the two of them came to him and said: O Abu Muhammad, we have differed about the fast of Arafah, so we have made you the judge between us. He said: I will tell you about someone better than me, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both): he did not fast on the day of Arafah.
