Hadith #37

Arabic Text

English Translation

Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger ﷺ offered four rak`at of Zuhr prayer at Medina and we were in his company, and two rak`at of the `Asr prayer at Dhul-Hulaifa and then passed the night there till it was dawn; then he rode, and when he reached Al-Baida', he praised and glorified Allah and said Takbir (i.e. Al hamdu-li l-lah and Subhanallah(1) and Allahu-Akbar). Then he and the people along with him recited Talbiya with the intention of performing Hajj and Umra. When we reached (Mecca) he ordered us to finish the Ihram (after performing the Umra) (only those who had no Hadi (animal for sacrifice) with them were asked to do so) till the day of Tarwiya that is 8th Dhul-Hijja when they assumed Ihram for Hajj. the Prophet ﷺ sacrificed many camels (slaughtering them) with his own hands while standing. While Allah's Apostle ﷺ was in Medina he sacrificed two horned rams black and white in color in the Name of Allah
