باب كَيْفَ وُجُوبُ الْحَجِّ:Chapter: How Hajj Becomes Obligatory
Hadith 1826
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سِنَانٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمْ الْحَجُّ". فَقِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ ؟ قَالَ: "لَا، وَلَوْ قُلْتُهَا لَوَجَبَتْ، الْحَجُّ مَرَّةٌ فَمَا زَادَ فَهُوَ تَطَوُّعٌ" .
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people! Hajj has been made obligatory upon you." It was asked: O Messenger of Allah! Is it obligatory every year? He replied: "No, and if I had said yes, it would have become obligatory every year. (Hajj) is obligatory only once in a lifetime, anything beyond that is voluntary."
