وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ - صلى الله عليه وسلم -فَقَالَ: { " إِنَّ اَللَّهَ كَتَبَ عَلَيْكُمُ اَلْحَجَّ " فَقَامَ اَلْأَقْرَعُ بْنُ حَابِسٍ فَقَالَ: أَفِي كَلِّ عَامٍ يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ? قَالَ: " لَوْ قُلْتُهَا لَوَجَبَتْ, اَلْحَجُّ مَرَّةٌ, فَمَا زَادَ فَهُوَ تَطَوُّعٌ " } رَوَاهُ اَلْخَمْسَةُ, غَيْرَ اَلتِّرْمِذِيِّ 1 .1 - صحيح. رواه أبو داود (1721 )، والنسائي ( 5 / 111 )، وابن ماجه ( 2886 )، وأحمد ( 3303 ) و ( 3510 ) والحديث ساقه الحافظ بمعناه. وزاد أحمد فر رواية: " ولو وجبت لم تسمعوا، ولم تطيعوا ". وهي عند النسائي بلفظ: " ثم إذا لا تسمعوني ولا تطيعون ".
He reported: The Messenger of Allah addressed us and said, “Allah has prescribed Hajj for you.” Al-Aqra ibn Habis stood and asked, “Every year, Messenger of Allah?” He replied, “If I said yes, it would become obligatory. Hajj is once; anything beyond that is voluntary.” The five transmitted it except al-Tirmidhi.
The editor grades it authentic and cites Abu Dawud 1721, al-Nasa'i 5:111, Ibn Majah 2886, and Ahmad 3303 and 3510. Al-Hafiz paraphrased the report. Ahmad adds in one version: “If it had become obligatory, you would not have listened or obeyed.” Al-Nasa'i's wording is: “Then you would not listen to me or obey.”
