أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أنبأ سَعِيدُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبَّادِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ: قَعَدْنَا إِلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ مَا الْحَاجُّ؟ قَالَ: " الشِّعِثُ التَّفِلُ "، فَقَامَ آخَرُ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أِيُّ الْحِجَّةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: " الْعَجُّ وَالثَّجُّ " فَقَامَ آخَرُ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا السَّبِيلُ؟ قَالَ: " زَادٌ وَرَاحِلَةٌ ". هَذَا الَّذِي عَنَى الشَّافِعِيُّ بِقَوِْلِهِ مِنْهَا مَا يَمْتَنِعُ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ تَثْبِيتِهِ وَإِنَّمَا امْتَنَعُوا مِنْهُ؛ لِأَنَّ الْحَدِيثَ يُعْرَفُ بِإِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْخُوزِيِّ وَقَدْ ضَعَّفَهُ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ بِالْحَدِيثِ..
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: A man asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): Who is the pilgrim? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one dishevelled and covered in dust." Another stood up and asked: Which Hajj is best? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one with raising of the voice (in the talbiyah) and the shedding of (sacrificial) blood." Another stood up and said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what is the "way" (al-sabil)? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A mount and provision for the journey."
This is what al-Shafi'i meant by his statement that among them is what the people of knowledge refrain from affirming; they refrained from it only because the hadith is known through Ibrahim bin Yazid al-Khuzi, and the scholars of hadith have declared him da'if (weak).

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعْدٍ الْمَالِينِيُّ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ مَعِينٍ يَقُولُ: إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْخُوزِيُّ رَوَى حَدِيثَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبَّادٍ هَذَا لَيْسَ بِثِقَةٍ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبَّادٍ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ أَضْعَفُ مِنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَرَوَاهُ أَيْضًا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبَّادٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ مَتْرُوكٌ وَرُوِيَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ وَحَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الزَّادِ وَالرَّاحِلَةِ وَلَا أَرَهُ إِلَّا وَهْمًا.
Yahya bin Ma'in said: Ibrahim bin Yazid al-Khuzi, who narrated this hadith of Muhammad bin Abbad, is not thiqah (trustworthy).
The Shaykh says: Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Ubayd bin Umayr narrates it from Muhammad bin Abbad, but he is weaker than Ibrahim bin Yazid. Likewise this narration was narrated by Muhammad bin al-Hajjaj, and he is matruk (abandoned). Likewise it has been narrated from Sa'id bin Abi Arubah and Hammad bin Salamah, from Qatadah, from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), concerning provision and a mount, but in my view this is their error.

فَقَدْ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُؤَمَّلِ، ثنا أَبُو عُثْمَانَ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْبَصْرِيُّ ثنا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ، أنبأ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، أنبأ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ: سُئِلَ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ {وَلِلَّهِ عَلَى النَّاسِ حِجُّ الْبَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا} [آل عمران: ٩٧] قَالَ: قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا السَّبِيلُ؟ قَالَ: " مَنْ وَجَدَ زَادًا وَرَاحِلَةً " هَذَا هُوَ الْمَحْفُوظُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُرْسَلًا، وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ يُونُسُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ وَرَوَاهُ الشَّافِعِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ عَنْ يُونُسَ.
Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the saying of Allah Almighty, "And Hajj to the House is a duty owed to Allah by the people, for whoever is able to find a way to it" [Surah Al Imran: 97]: what is the "way"? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A mount and provision for the journey."
The correct view is that this narration from Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) is mursal.

وَرَوَاهُ عَتَّابُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا السَّبِيلُ إِلَى الْحَجِّ، قَالَ: " الزَّادُ وَالرَّاحِلَةُ " أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ، أنبأ أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي حَاتِمٍ قَالَ: وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِ عَتَّابِ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ فَذَكَرَهُ. وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ عَتَّابٍ وَرُوِيَ فِيهِ أَحَادِيثُ أُخَرُ لَا يَصِحُّ شَيْءٌ مِنْهَا، وَحَدِيثُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ أَشْهَرُهَا وَقَدْ أَكَّدْنَاهُ بِالَّذِي رَوَاهُ الْحَسَنُ الْبَصْرِيُّ وَإِنْ كَانَ مُنْقَطِعًا.
The Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her), says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about "the way to Hajj" (al-sabil ila al-hajj), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Provision for the journey and a mount."
Other hadiths have been narrated on this, none of which is authentic. The hadith of Ibrahim bin Yazid is the best known of them, and we have supported it with what al-Hasan al-Basri narrated, even though it is munqati' (with a broken chain).

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، ثنا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الطَّرَائِفِيُّ، ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {وَلِلَّهِ عَلَى النَّاسِ حِجُّ ⦗٥٤١⦘ الْبَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا} [آل عمران: ٩٧] قَالَ: السَّبِيلُ أَنْ يَصِحَّ بَدَنُ الْعَبْدِ وَيَكُونَ لَهُ ثَمَنُ زَادٍ وَرَاحِلَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُجْحَفَ بِهِ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says, concerning the saying of Allah Almighty, "And Hajj to the House is a duty owed to Allah by the people, for whoever is able to find a way to it" [Surah Al Imran: 97]: The "way" is that a person's body is healthy and that the money for provision and a mount is readily available to him.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ، أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ صَاعِدٍ، ثنا أَبُو عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ، ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، وَعَبْدُ الْمَجِيدِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، مِثْلَ قَوْلِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، السَّبِيلُ الزَّادُ وَالرَّاحِلَةُ.
It is also reported from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), like the saying of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), that the meaning of "way" (sabil) is provision for the journey and a mount.
