Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم offered the noon prayer on the 8th of Dhul-Hijjah (Yawm at-Tarwiyah) and dawn prayer on the 9th of Dhul-Hijjah (Yawm al-Arafah) in Mina.

Abd Al Aziz bin Rufai’ said I asked Anas bin Malik saying“Tell me something you knew about the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم viz where he offered the noon prayer on Yawm Al Tarwiyah (8th of Dhu Al Hijjah). He replied, In Mina I asked Where did he pray the afternoon prayer on Yaum Al Nafr (12th or 13th of Dhu Al Hijjah). He replied In al-Abtah he then said“Do as your commanders do. ”

Ibn Umar said the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم proceeded from Mina when he offered the dawn prayer on Yaum Al ‘Arafah (9th of Dhu Al Hijjah) in the morning till he came to ‘Arafah and he descended at Namrah. This is the place where the imam (prayer leader at ‘Arafah) takes his place. When the time of the noon prayer came, the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم proceeded earlier and combined the noon and afternoon prayers. He then addressed the people (i. e., recited the sermon) and proceeded. He stationed at a place of stationing in ‘Arafah.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: When al-Hajjaj killed Ibn Zubayr, he sent a message to Ibn Umar asking him: At which moment the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم used to proceed (to Arafat) this day? He replied: When it happens so, we shall proceed. When Ibn Umar intended to proceed, the people said: The sun did not decline. He (Ibn Umar) asked: Did it decline? They replied: It did not decline. When they said that the sun had declined, he proceeded.

A man from banu Damrah reported on the authority of his father or his uncle“ I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم on the pulpit in ‘Arafah. ”

Narrated Nubayt: Nubayt had seen the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم in Arafat.

Al-Adda ibn Khalid ibn Hudhah said: I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم on 9 Dhul-Hijjah on a camel standing at the stirrups. Abu Dawud said: Ibn al-'Ala has reported this tradition from Waki as narrated by Hammad.

This tradition has also been transmitted by Al Adda bin Khalid through a different chain of narrators to the same effect.

Yazid ibn Shayban said: We were in a place of stationing at Arafat which Amr (ibn Abdullah) thought was very far away from where the imam was stationing, when Ibn Mirba' al-Ansari came to us and told (us): I am a messenger for you from the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . He tells you: Station where you are performing your devotions for you are an heir to the heritage of Abraham.

Ibn Abbas said The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم returned from ‘Arafah preserving a quiet demeanor and he took Usamah up behind him (on the Camel). He said“O people preserve a quiet demeanor for piety does not consist in exciting the Horses and the Camels (i. e., in driving them quickly). ”He (Ibn Abbas) said“Thereafter I did not see them raising their hands running quickly till he came to Al Muzdalifah. ”The narrator Wahb added He took Al Fadl bin Abbas up behind him (on the Camel) and said O people piety does not consist in exciting the Horses and the Camels (i. e., in driving them quickly), you must preserve a quiet demeanor”. He (Ibn Abbas) said“Thereafter I did not see them raising their hands till he came to Mina. ”
