Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ الأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ، سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الْحَجُّ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ أَوْ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً قَالَ ‏ "‏ بَلْ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً فَمَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ فَتَطَوُّعٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Yaʿqūb ibn Ibrāhīm al-Dawraqī narrated to us: Yazīd ibn Hārūn narrated to us: Sufyān ibn Ḥusayn informed us, from al-Zuhrī, from Abū Sinān, from Ibn ʿAbbās, that al-Aqraʿ ibn Ḥābis asked the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: “Messenger of God, is pilgrimage required every year, or just once?” He said: “Just once; whoever does more, it is voluntary.”
