It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Hajj in the tenth year after his arrival in Madinah, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Hajj al-Ifrad.

It is narrated from Sufyan that he said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Hajj several times before the Hijrah, and after the Hijrah he performed only the Farewell Hajj. The total number of his sacrificial animals was one hundred camels, among which was a camel with a silver ring in its nose. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered sixty-three camels with his own blessed hand, and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) slaughtered the rest. Al-Thawri was asked: Whose narration is this? He said: Ja'far bin Muhammad from his father, from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him); and Ibn Abi Layla from al-Hakam, from Miqsam, from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both). Imam al-Hakim says: As for the narrated hadiths that explain the Farewell Hajj, the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) agreed on recording them with authentic chains on their conditions, and the most authentic and most complete of them is the hadith of Ja'far bin Muhammad al-Sadiq from his father from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), which Imam Muslim alone recorded. By the will of Allah Almighty and His help, we have now reached the account of the beginning of the final illness of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
