Hadith 5338

(حديث مرفوع) قَالَ : قَرَأْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ : مَالِكٌ ، وحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، رَأَيْتُكَ تَصْنَعُ أَرْبَعًا لَمْ أَرَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِكَ مَنْ يَصْنَعُهَا ! قَالَ : مَا هُنَّ يَا ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ ؟ قَالَ : رَأَيْتُكَ لَا تَمَسُّ مِنَ الْأَرْكَانِ إِلَّا الْيَمَانِيَيْنِ ، وَرَأَيْتُكَ تَلْبَسُ النِّعَالَ السِّبْتِيَّةَ ، وَرَأَيْتُكَ تَصْبُغُ بِالصُّفْرَةِ ، وَرَأَيْتُكَ إِذَا كُنْتَ بِمَكَّةَ أَهَلَّ النَّاسُ إِذَا رَأَوْا الْهِلَالَ ، وَلَمْ تُهْلِلْ أَنْتَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ يَوْمُ التَّرْوِيَةِ ! فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : " أَمَّا الْأَرْكَانُ : فَإِنِّي لَمْ أَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمَسُّ إِلَّا الْيَمَانِيَيْنِ ، وَأَمَّا النِّعَالُ السِّبْتِيَّةُ : فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَلْبَسُ النِّعَالَ الَّتِي لَيْسَ فِيهَا شَعَرٌ ، وَيَتَوَضَّأُ فِيهَا ، فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَلْبَسَهَا ، وَأَمَّا الصُّفْرَةُ : فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْبُغُ بِهَا ، فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَصْبُغَ بِهَا ، وَأَمَّا الْإِهْلَالُ : فَإِنِّي لَمْ أَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُهِلُّ حَتَّى تَنْبَعِثَ بِهِ نَاقَتُهُ " .
Ubaid bin Juraij says that once I said to Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them), "I see you doing four things which I do not see anyone else among your companions doing." He asked, "What are those things?" I said, "I see that you only touch the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone, and do not touch any other corner. I see you wearing shoes made of tanned leather. I see you dyeing your beard. And I see that when you are in Makkah, people begin reciting the Talbiyah as soon as they see the new moon, but you do not recite the Talbiyah until the eighth of Dhul-Hijjah arrives." Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "As for touching only the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone, I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) touching only these two corners, and he did not touch any other corner. As for wearing shoes made of tanned leather, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself wore such shoes, performed ablution while wearing them, and liked them. As for dyeing the beard, I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) dyeing his beard. And as for assuming Ihram, I did not see the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) assuming Ihram until his mount set out with him."
