It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: I have performed the stoning of the Jamarat and the Tawaf al-Ifadah, but I have not yet shaved my head and I have put on other clothes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There is no harm, now shave your head. Another man came and said: I have completed the stoning and shaving of the head and have put on other clothes, but I have not yet performed the sacrifice. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There is no harm, now perform the sacrifice.

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I saw that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was riding his mount in Mina when a man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I thought that shaving the head comes before sacrifice, so I shaved my head before sacrificing. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Now perform the sacrifice, there is no harm in it. Meanwhile, another man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I thought that sacrificing comes before stoning, so I performed the sacrifice before stoning. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There is no harm in it, now perform the stoning. On that day, whoever asked about advancing or delaying any of these matters, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Now do it, there is no harm in it. The narrator, Abdur Razzaq, said: A man came and said: O Messenger of Allah! I thought that shaving the head comes before stoning, so I shaved my head before stoning. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Now perform the stoning, there is no harm in it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, after completing the sacrifices, sat down for the people. Whatever question was asked regarding the precedence or delay of any matter, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, replied: "There is no harm, there is no harm." Until a man came and said: "I shaved my head before the sacrifice." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "There is no harm." Then another man came and said: "I shaved my head before the stoning." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "There is no harm." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, also said: "All of Arafah is a place of standing, all of Muzdalifah is a place of standing, and all of Mina is a place of sacrifice, and all the streets of Makkah are pathways and places of sacrifice."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to us on the tenth of Dhul-Hijjah and said: Which day is the most sacred? The companions said: Today, that is, the tenth of Dhul-Hijjah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Which month is the most sacred? The companions said: This month of Dhul-Hijjah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Which city is the most sacred? They said: Our city, that is, Makkah Mukarramah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Your blood and wealth are forbidden to one another just as the sanctity of this city, this month, and this day is sacred. Have I conveyed the message of Allah Almighty to you? The companions said: Yes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Bear witness.

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said during the Farewell Pilgrimage: "O people! What day is this?" The companions replied, "It is a sacred day." He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "What city is this?" The companions replied, "It is a sacred city." He (peace and blessings be upon him) then asked, "What month is this?" The companions replied, "It is a sacred month." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Your wealth, your blood, and your honor are as sacred to one another as the sanctity of this day, in this city, and in this month." He repeated these words several times. After that, he (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his head towards the sky and said several times, "Have I conveyed the message to the people?" Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: "By Allah! This was the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entrusting Allah with a will regarding the rights of the Ummah." After this, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Beware! Those who are present should convey these words to those who are not present. O people! Do not turn to disbelief after me, striking the necks of one another."

A companion narrates that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, delivered a sermon to the people at Mina, and he himself instructed them to sit in their respective places: "Let the Muhajirun sit here," and with that, he pointed towards the direction of the Qiblah. "Let the Ansar sit here," and with that, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, pointed to the left side of the Qiblah, "and let the rest of the people sit around them." Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, taught the people the rites of Hajj. Allah Almighty opened the ears of the people of Mina to such an extent that they heard the words of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, while sitting in their respective places. I also heard the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: "Arrange for pebbles (the size of a chickpea or bean, etc.)."

Narrated by Sayyiduna Harmas bin Ziyad Bahili (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I was young and my father had seated me behind him on a donkey, at that time I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) delivering a sermon in Mina, while he (peace be upon him) was mounted on a she-camel named ‘Adhba’.

(Second chain) Sayyiduna Harmas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) delivering a sermon in Mina on the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah.

It is narrated from Murrah Tayyib, he says: A companion narrated a hadith to me in this very room of mine and said that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, delivered a sermon on the tenth of Dhul-Hijjah while riding a red-colored she-camel, whose ear was slit. In the sermon, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, also said: Today is the day of sacrifice and this is the day of the greater Hajj.

Narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the Tawaf al-Ifadah at the end of the day, when he had prayed the Zuhr prayer. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) returned to Mina and spent the days of Tashreeq in Mina. After the sun had declined, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would stone the Jamarat, throwing seven pebbles at each Jamarah and proclaiming Allahu Akbar with each pebble. At the first and second Jamarah, he would stand and make lengthy supplications and beseech Allah earnestly. Then, after stoning the third Jamarah (Jamrat al-Aqabah), he would not stand there.
