Hadith 71
The Rites of Hajj (Kitab Al-Manasik Wa'l-Hajj)
Narrated Sarra' daughter of Nabhan:
She was mistress of a temple in pre-Islamic days. She said: The prophet (ﷺ) addressed us on the second day of sacrifice (yawm ar-ru'us) and said: Which is this day? We said: Allah and His Messenger are better aware. He said: Is this not the middle of the tashriq days?
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ حِصْنٍ، حَدَّثَتْنِي جَدَّتِي، سَرَّاءُ بِنْتُ نَبْهَانَ - وَكَانَتْ رَبَّةَ بَيْتٍ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ - قَالَتْ خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَوْمَ الرُّءُوسِ فَقَالَ " أَىُّ يَوْمٍ هَذَا " . قُلْنَا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ " أَلَيْسَ أَوْسَطَ أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَكَذَلِكَ قَالَ عَمُّ أَبِي حُرَّةَ الرَّقَاشِيِّ إِنَّهُ خَطَبَ أَوْسَطَ أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ .
