'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin al-As (RA) said: As Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was standing near the jamra, a person came to him on the Day of Nahr and said: Messenger of Allah, I got (my head shaved) before throwing pebbles, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Throw pebbles (now); there is no harm in it. Another man (then) came and said: I have sacrificed before throwing the stones. He said: Throw stones (now) and there is no harm. Another came to him and said: I have observed the circumambulation of Ifada of the House before throwing pebbles. He said: Throw pebbles (now); there is no harm in it. He (the narrator) said: I did not see that he (the Holy Prophet) was asked about anything on that day, but he said: Do, and there is no harm in it.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Zuhri with the same chain of transmitters (and the words are): "I saw Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) on the back of the camel at Mina, and a person came to him," and the rest of the hadith is like that transmitted by Ibn 'Uyaina.

'Adullah bin 'Amr (b. al-'As) (RA) reported that a person came to Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and said: I got (my head) shaved before sacrificing the animal, whereupon be (the Holy Prophet) said: Sacrifice the animal (now); there is no harm in it. He (the person said): I sacrificed the animal before throwing pebbles, whereupon he said: Throw pebbles (now); there is no harm in it.

Ibn 'Abbas (RA) reported that it was said to Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) about sacrificing of animals, shaving of one's head, throwing of pebbles, and (the order of) precedence and succession, and he said: There is no harm in it.

Ibn 'Umar (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) observed the circumambulation of Ifada on the Day of Nahr (10th of Dhu'l-Hijja), and then came back and observed the noon prayer at Mina. Nafi' (one of the narrators) said that Ibn 'Umar (RA) used to observe the circumambulation of Ifada on the Day of Nahr, and then return and observe the noon prayer at Mina, and mentioned that Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) did that.

Abdul 'Aziz bin Rufai' (RA) said: I asked Anas bin Malik (RA) to tell me about something he knew about Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , viz. where he observed the noon prayer on Yaum al-Tarwiya. He said: At Mina. I said: Where did he observe the afternoon prayer on the Yaum an-Nafr? and he said: It was at al-Abtah. He then said: Do as your rulers do.

Ibn 'Umar (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and Abu Bakr (RA) and 'Umar observed halt at al-Abtah.

Nafi' reported that Ibn 'Umar regarded halt at Muhassab as Sunnah (of the Holy Prophet) and observed the noon prayer on Yaum al-Nahr at that place. Nafi' said: Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) halted at Muhassab and the Caliphs did the same after him.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported.: Halt at al-Abtah is not the Sunnah. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) halted there simply because it was easier for him to depart from there, when he left.

This hadith is narrated on the authority of Hisham with the same chain of transmitters.
