The Book of Pilgrimage

'Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the Talbiya of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was this:

Here I am at Your service. O Allah, here I am at Your service, here I am at Your service. There is no associate with You; here I am at Your service. Verily all praise and grace is due to You, and the sovereignty (too). There is no associate with You. He (the narrator) further said that 'Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) made this addition to it: Here I am at Your service; here I am at Your service; ready to obey You, and good is in Your Hand; here I am at Your service; unto You is the petition, and deed (is also for You).

'Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) entered upon the state of Ihram near the mosque at Dhu'l-Hulaifa as his camel stood by it and he said:

Here I am at Your service, O Lord; here I am at Your service: here I am at Your service. There is no associate with You. Here I am at Your service. All praise and grace is due to You and the sovereignty (too). There is no associate with You. They (the people) said that 'Abdullah b. 'Umar said that that was the Talbiya of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Nafi' said: 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with him) made this addition to it: Here I am at Your service; here I am at Your service; ready to obey You. The Good is in Your Hand. Here I am at Your service. Unto You is the petition and deed (is also for You).

Ibn 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) reported:

I immediately learnt Talbiya from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and he then narrated the hadith.

'Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported:

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) pronouncing Talbiya with compacted hair: Here I am at Your service. O Allah: here I am at Your service; here I am at Your service. There is no associate with You; here I am at Your service. Verily all praise and grace is due to You and the Sovereignty (too). There is no associate with You; and he did not make any addition to these words. 'Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) (further) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to offer two rak'ahs of prayer at Dhu'l-Hulaifa and then when his camel stood up with him on its back near the mosque at Dhu'l-Hulaifa, he pronounced these words (of Talbiya). And 'Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased'with them) said that 'Umar b. Khattab (Allah be pleased with him) pronounced, the Talbiya of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) in these words of his (Prophet's words) and said: Here I am at Your service, O Lord; here I am at Your service, ready to obey You, and good is in Your Hand, Here I am at Your service. Unto You is the petition and deed (is also for You).

Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the polytheists also pronounced (Talbiya) as:

Here I am at Your service, there is no associate with You. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Woe be upon them, as they also said: But one associate with You, you possess mastery over him, but he does not possess mastery (over you). They used to say this and circumambulate the Ka'ba.

Salim b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported that he heard his father saying:

This place Baida' is for you that about which you attribute lie to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not enter upon the state of Ihram but near the mosque at Dhu'l- Hulaifa.

Salim reported that when it was said to Ibn 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) that the state of Ihram (commences from)a al-Baida' he said:

Al-Baida', you attribute lie about it to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not enter upon the state of Ihram but near the tree when his camel stood up with him.

'Ubaid b. Juraij said to 'Ahdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them):

'Abd al-Rahman, I find you doing four things which I do not see anyone among your companions doing. He said: Son of Juraij, what are these? Thereupon he said: You (while circumambulating the Ka'ba) do not touch but the two pillars situated on the side of yaman (south), and I find you wearing the sandals of tanned leather, and I find you with dyed beard and head, and I also found that, when you were at Mecca, the people pronounced Talbiya as they saw the new moon (Dhu'l-Hijja), but you did not do it till the 8th of Dhu'l-Hijja. Upon this 'Abdullab b. 'Umar said: (So far as the touching of) the pillars is concerned, I did not see the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) touching them but only those situated on the side of yaman. (So far as the wearing of) the shoes of tanned leather is concerned, I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wearing shoes without hair on them, and he (wore them with wet feet) after performing ablution, and I like to wear them. So far as the yellowness is concerned, I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) dyeing (head, beard and cloth) with this colour and I love to dye (my head, beard or cloth) with this colour. And so far as the pronouncing of Talbiya is concerned, I did not see the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) pronouncing it until his camel proceeded on (to Dhu'l-Hulaifa).

'Ubaid b. Juraij reported:

I remained in the company of 'Abdullah b. 'Umar b. al-Khattab (Allah be pleased with them) its twelve Hajjs and 'Umras and I said to him: I saw four characteristics (peculiar in you), and the rest of the hadith is the same except the case of Talbiya. There he offered the narration given by al-Maqburi and he stated the facts excepting the one given above.

Ibn 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) pronounced Talbiya in Dhu'l-Hulaifa as he put his feet in the stirrup and his camel stood up and proceeded.

Ibn 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) pronounced Talbiya as his camel stood up.

'Abdullah b. 'Umar reported:

I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) riding on his camel at Dhu'l-Hulaifa and pronouncing Talbiya as it stood up with him.

'Abdullah b. 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) spent the night at Dhu'l-Hulaifa while commencing (the rites of) Pilgrimage and he observed prayer in the mosque.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported:

I applied perfume to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) before he entered upon the state of lhram and (concluding) before circumambulating the (sacred) House.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her), the wife of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), reported:

I applied perfume to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) with my own hand before he entered upon the state of Ihram, and as he concluded it before circumambulating the House (for Tawaf-i-lfada).

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported:

I used to apply perfume to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) before his entering upon the state of Ihram and at the conclusion of it, before circumambulating the House (for Tawaf Ifada).

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said:

I applied perfume to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as he became free from Ihram and as he entered upon it.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said:

I applied perfume of Dharira to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) with my hand (on the occasion of) the Farewell Pilgrimage on freeing from the state of Ihram and entering upon it.

'Uthman b. 'Urwa reported on the authority of his father that he said:

I asked 'A'isha with what thing she perfumed the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) at the time of entering upon the state of Ihram. She said: With the best of perfume.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported:

I applied the best perfume, which I could get, to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) before entering upon the state of Ihram (and after this) he put on the Ihram.
