The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) giving al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) the duty of providing water for the pilgrims
Mustadrak al-Hakim — Hadith 5519
اُردوEn
وبإسناده عن عليٍّ، قال: قلتُ للعباس: سَلْ لنا النبي ﷺ الحِجابةَ، فقال: "أُعطِيكُم ما هو خيرٌ لكم منها، السِّقايةَ تَرْزُؤُكم ولا تَرْزَؤُها" (1). كلا الحديثين صحيحا الإسناد، ولم يُخرجاه.
With the same previous chain, it is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I said to Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him): Ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for the gatekeeping (of the Ka'bah) for us. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I give you something better for you than that, namely giving water (to the pilgrims); in it you will spend wealth, and you will not earn from it."
Both of these hadiths have authentic (sahih) chains, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record them.

(1) حسن لغيره وهذا إسناد ضعيف لجهالة عبد الله بن أبي رزين، وإقرارُ رسول الله ﷺ للعباس على السِّقاية مشهور عند أهل السِّير شُهرة يُستغنى بها عن طلب الإسناد. على أن بعض أهل العلم قد صحَّح حديث أبي رزين هذا، منهم الطبري في "تهذيب الآثار" في مسند علي ص 233، والضياء المقدسي في "المختارة" 2/ (802)، وحسَّنه الحافظ ابن حجر في "المطالب العالية" (1309)، والبوصيري في "إتحاف الخيرة" (2084).
Grading: (1) This hadith is "hasan li-ghayrihi". Although this chain is da'if because of the unknown status of Abdullah bin Abi Razin, the Messenger of Allah's (peace and blessings be upon him) confirming al-'Abbas in charge of the siqayah (the service of giving water to the pilgrims) is so well known among the biographers that there is no need to seek a chain for it. Nevertheless, some scholars have authenticated this hadith of Abu Razin, among them al-Tabari in "Tahdhib al-Athar" (Musnad 'Ali p. 233) and al-Diya' al-Maqdisi in "al-Mukhtarah" [2/ (802)], while al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar in "al-Matalib al-'Aliyah" (1309) and al-Busiri in "Ithaf al-Khiyarah" (2084) declared it hasan.
وأخرجه ابن سعد في "طبقاته" 4/ 22، وابن أبي شيبة وإسحاق بن راهويه وأحمد بن منيع في "مسانيدهم" كما في "المطالب العالية" (1309)، والبزار (895)، والطبري في "تهذيب الآثار" في مسند عليٍّ ص 233، وضياء الدين المقدسي في "المختارة" 2/ (802) من طرق عن قبيصة بن عُقبة، بهذا الإسناد.
Reference / Source: It was narrated by Ibn Sa'd in "al-Tabaqat" (4/ 22), Ibn Abi Shaybah, Ishaq bin Rahawayh and Ahmad bin Mani' in their Musnads (as found in "al-Matalib al-'Aliyah" 1309), al-Bazzar (895), al-Tabari in "Tahdhib al-Athar" (Musnad 'Ali p. 233) and Diya' al-Din al-Maqdisi in "al-Mukhtarah" [2/ (802)], via several routes from Qabisah bin 'Uqbah with this same chain.
وأخرجه أبو يعلى في "مسنده" (310) من طريق أبي أحمد محمد بن عبد الله بن الزبير الزبيري، عن سفيان الثوري، عن موسى بن أبي عائشة، عن عبد الله بن أبي رزين، قال: قال علي للعباس … فذكره مرسلًا ولم يذكر أبا رزين، إنما جعله من مرسل ابنه عبد الله!
Reference / Source: It was narrated by Abu Ya'la in his "Musnad" (310) via Abu Ahmad Muhammad bin Abdullah bin al-Zubayr al-Zubayri, from Sufyan al-Thawri, from Musa bin Abi 'A'ishah, from Abdullah bin Abi Razin, who said: 'Ali said to al-'Abbas, and he mentioned it.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): He mentioned it as mursal and did not mention Abu Razin (the father); rather he made it a mursal narration of his son Abdullah!
ويشهد له مرسل ابن أبي مُليكة عند عبد الرزاق (9073)، ومن طريقه الطبراني في "معجمه الكبير" (8395): أنَّ النبي ﷺ قال لعليٍّ حين كلَّمه في المفتاح: "إنما أعطيتكم ما تُرزَؤون، ولم أُعطكم ما ترزؤون". أي: أعطيتكم السِّقاية لأنكم تغرمون فيها، ولم أُعطكم البيت. ورجاله ثقات.
Corroborating chains and supporting reports: A supporting report for it is the mursal narration of Ibn Abi Mulaykah, found in Abd al-Razzaq (9073), and through him al-Tabarani narrated it in "al-Mu'jam al-Kabir" (8395): that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) when he spoke to him about the key: "I have given you only that in which you bear a burden (turza'un), and I have not given you that from which you take (tarza'un)." That is: I have given you the siqayah because you incur expenses in it, and I have not given you (the keys of) the House. Its narrators are thiqah.
وذكرها الواقدي في "مغازيه" 2/ 833 عن شيوخه، ومن طريقه أخرجه الأزرقي في "أخبار مكة" ص 267. وذكر أنَّ العباس هو من سأل النبي ﷺ ذلك لا عليّ بن أبي طالب.
Reference / Source: Al-Waqidi mentioned it in his "Maghazi" (2/ 833) from his shaykhs, and through him al-Azraqi recorded it in "Akhbar Makkah" (p. 267). He mentioned that the one who asked this was al-'Abbas, not 'Ali bin Abi Talib.
وذكرها كذلك ابن جريج وابنُ إسحاق في خبر ولاية قصي بن كلاب البيت كما رواه عنهما الأزرقي في أخبار مكة ص 109. وذكرا أيضًا أنَّ السائل للحجابة كان العباس لا عليًّا.
Reference / Source: Ibn Jurayj and Ibn Ishaq also mentioned it in the account of Qusayy bin Kilab's guardianship of the House, as al-Azraqi narrated from them in "Akhbar Makkah" (p. 109). Both of them also mentioned that the one who asked for the custodianship (hijabah) was al-'Abbas, not 'Ali.
وقد نقل الحافظ ابن حجر في "فتح الباري" 5/ 457 عن الفاكهي أنه أخرج من طريق الشعبي قال: تكلم العباسُ وعليٌّ وشيبة بن عثمان في السقاية والحجابة فأنزل الله تعالى: ﴿أَجَعَلْتُمْ سِقَايَةَ الْحَاجِّ﴾ إلى قوله: ﴿حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ اللَّهُ بِأَمْرِهِ﴾. فكأنَّ العباس وعليًّا كلٌّ منهما كلّم رسول الله ﷺ في شأن جمع الحجابة إلى السقاية، والله أعلم.
Reference / Source: Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar quoted in "Fath al-Bari" (5/ 457) from al-Fakihi that he narrated via al-Sha'bi, who said: Al-'Abbas, 'Ali and Shaybah bin 'Uthman (may Allah be pleased with them) spoke about the siqayah and the hijabah, so Allah the Exalted revealed: ﴿أَجَعَلْتُمْ سِقَايَةَ الْحَاجِّ﴾ (Have you made the giving of water to the pilgrims) up to His words ﴿حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ اللَّهُ بِأَمْرِهِ﴾ (until Allah brings His command). So it seems that al-'Abbas and 'Ali each spoke to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about combining the hijabah with the siqayah. And Allah knows best.
ونقل الحافظ عن الفاكهي أيضًا أنه روى من طريق ابن أبي مليكة، عن ابن عباس: أنَّ العباس لما مات أراد عليٌّ أن يأخذ السقاية، فقال له طلحة: أشهدُ لرأيت أباهُ يقوم عليها، وإنَّ أباك أبا طالب لنازل في إبله بالأراك بعرفة، قال: فكفَّ عليٌّ عن السقاية.
Details of the narration: Al-Hafiz also quoted from al-Fakihi that he narrated via Ibn Abi Mulaykah, from Ibn 'Abbas, that: When al-'Abbas died, 'Ali wanted to take the siqayah, so Talhah said to him: I bear witness that I saw his (al-'Abbas's) father attending to it, while your father Abu Talib was encamped among his camels at al-Arak in 'Arafah. He said: So 'Ali refrained from (taking) the siqayah.
وثبت في "صحيح البخاري" (1635) من حديث عبد الله بن عباس إقرارُه ﷺ للسقاية في يد العباس، وذلك أنه سقى رسول الله ﷺ من زمزم، وقال له رسول الله ﷺ: "اعملُوا فإنكم على عمل صالح"، ثم قال: "لولا أن تُغلبوا لنزلتُ حتى أضع الحبل على هذه" يعني عاتقه.
Reference / Source: It is established in "Sahih al-Bukhari" (1635), from the hadith of Abdullah bin 'Abbas, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) confirmed the siqayah in the hands of al-'Abbas. That was when he gave the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) Zamzam water to drink, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Keep working, for you are doing a righteous deed." Then he said: "Were it not that you would be overwhelmed (by people crowding in), I would come down and place the rope on this", meaning his blessed shoulder.

Reference / Source: In al-Bukhari (1634) and Muslim (1315) it is narrated from Ibn 'Umar that al-'Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for permission to spend the nights of Mina in Makkah because of his (duty of) siqayah, and he gave him permission.
