Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: It was said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what is meant by "a way to Hajj" (al-sabil ila al-hajj)? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What is meant by 'the way' (al-sabil) is provision for the journey and a mount."
