Chapter: Stoning Jamrat Al-'Aqabah from the bottom of the valley; Makkah should be on to one's left and one should say Takbir with each throw

'Abdul Rahman bin Yazid reported that 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud (RA) threw seven pebbles at Jamrat al-'Aqabahh from the heart of the valley. He pronounced Takbir with every pebble. It was said to him that people fling stones from the upper side (of the valley), whereupon 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud (Allah he pleased with them) said: By him, besides Whom there is no other God, that is the place (of flinging stones) of one upon whom Surah al-Baqarah was revealed (the Holy Prophet).

A'mash reported: I heard Hajjaj bin Yusuf saying as he was delivering sermon on the pulpit: Observe the order of the (Holy) Qur'an which has been observed by Gabriel (ؑ). (Thus state the surahs in this manner) "one in which mention has been made of al-Baqarah,", "one in which mention has been made of women (Surah al-Nisa')" and then the surah in which mention has been made of the Family of 'Imran. He (the (narrator) said: I met Ibrahim and informed him about these words of his (the statement of Hajjaj bin Yusuf). He cursed him and said: Abdul Rahman bin Yazid has narrated to me that when he was in the company of 'Abdullah bin Mas'udd (RA) he came to Jamrat al-'Aqabahh and then entered the heart of the valley and faced towards it (the Jamra) and then flung seven pebbles at it from the heart of the valley pronouncing Takbir with every pebble. I said: Abu 'Abdul Rahman, people fling pebbles at it (Jamra) from the upper side, whereupon he said: By Him besides Whom there is no God, that is the place (of flinging pebbles of one) upon whom Surah al-Baqarah was revealed;

A'mash reported: I heard Hajjaj saying: I do not say Surah al-Baqarah. The rest of the hadith is the same.

Abdul Rahman bin Yazid reported that he performed Hajj along with 'Abdullah (RA) and he flung seven pebbles at al-Jamra (from a position) that the House was on his left and Mina was on his right and said: That is the place (of flinging pebbles of one) upon whom Surah al-Baqarah was revealed.

This hadith nas been narrated on the authority of Shu'bah with the same chain of transmitters except with this variation of (words): As he came to Jamrat al-'Aqabah."

Abdul Rahman bin Yazid reported: It was said to 'Abdullah (RA) that people threw pebbles at the Jamra from the upper side of 'Aqabahh, whereas he threw stones at it from the heart of the valley, whereupon he said: By Him besides Whom there is no god, it is at this very place that one upon whom was revealed Surah al-Baqarah, threw stones at it.
