ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، نا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الأُمَوِيُّ ، نا أَبِي ، نا يَزِيدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُنَيْسَةَ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنِ ابْنٍ لأَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هَذِهِ الْجِمَارُ الَّتِي يُرْمَى بِهَا كُلَّ عَامٍ فَنَحْتَسِبُ أَنَّهَا تَنْقُصُ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّهُ مَا تُقُبِّلَ مِنْهَا رُفِعَ ، وَلَوْلا ذَلِكَ لَرَأَيْتَهَا أَمْثَالَ الْجِبَالِ " .
Sayyiduna Abu Sa‘id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We said, “O Messenger of Allah! These pebbles that are thrown at the Jamarat every year, we think that they will eventually finish.” So the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Those among them that are accepted are taken away; if it were not so, you would see (heaps of pebbles) here like mountains.”
