“The Prophet (ﷺ)performedHajj on an old saddle, wearing a cloak that was worth fourDirham orless. Then he said: ‘O Allah, a Hajj in which there is noshowingoff nor reputation sought.’”

“The pilgrims performing Hajj and ‘Umrah are a delegation toAllah. If they call upon Him, He will answer them; and if they askforHis forgiveness, He will forgive them.”

“The onewhofights in the cause of Allah, and the pilgrim performing Hajj and‘Umrah are a delegation to Allah. He invited them, so theyrespondedto Him, and they ask Him and He gives to them.”

“A man stood up and said to theProphet (ﷺ): ‘O Messenger of Allah! What makes Hajj obligatory?’Hesaid: ‘Provision and a mount.’ He said: ‘O Messenger ofAllah, what isthe (real) Hajj?’ He said: ‘The one withdishevelled hair and noperfume.’ Another (man) stood up and said:‘O Messenger of Allah, whatis the (real) Hajj?’ He said:‘Raising one’s voice and slaughteringthe sacrificial animal.’”

“Provision and a mount,” meaning, about Allah’s saying:“Whoevercan bear the way.” [3:97]

“No woman should travel the distance of three days or more,unlessshe is with her father, brother, son, husband or a Mahram.”

“Hajj is the Jihad of every weak person.”

“Perform Hajj on behalf of your father.” And the Prophet (ﷺ)said:“The same applies to fasting in fulfillment of a vow – itshould bemade up for.”

“O Messenger of Allah, myfatheris an old man who has become weak, and now the command ofAllah hascome for His slaves to perform Hajj, but he cannot do it.Will itdischarge his duty if I perform it on his behalf?” TheMessenger ofAllah (ﷺ) said: “Yes.”

“OMessenger of Allah, the command of Allah has come forHis slaves toperform Hajj, but my father is an old man and cannotride. May Iperform Hajj on his behalf?” He said: “Yes, becauseif your fatherowed a debt you would pay it off.”

“Asma’ bint ‘Umais gave birth toMuhammad bin Abi Bakr and sent word to the Prophet (ﷺ). He told herto take a bath, fasten a cloth around her private part and begin theTalbiyah.”

“The people of Al-Madinah should begin the Talbiyah fromDhul-Hulaifah, the people of Sham from Juhfah, and the people of NajdfromQarn.” ‘Abdullah said: “As for these three, I heard themfrom theMessenger of Allah (ﷺ). And it reached me that theMessenger ofAllah (ﷺ) said: ‘And the people of Yemen shouldenter Ihram fromYalamlam.’”

“Labbaika ilahal-haqq, labbaika (Here Iam, Ogod of Truth, here I am).”

“There is no (pilgrim) who recites the Talbiyah butthat which is to his right and left also recites it, rocks and treesand hills, to the farthest ends of the earth in each direction, fromhere and from there.”

“Which actions are best?” He said: “Raising one’svoice and slaughtering the sacrificial animal.”

“I put perfume on the Messenger ofAllah (ﷺ) for his Ihram before he entered into it, and when heexited Ihram before he returned.”*

Duba’ah bint Zubair bin‘Abdul-Muttalib came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: “Iam a heavywoman and I want to go for Hajj. How should I enterIhram?” He said:“Enter Ihram and stipulate the condition thatyou will exit Ihram fromthe point where you are prevented.”

I heard Ibn ‘Abbas say:TheMessenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “This Stone will be brought on theDay of Resurrection, and it will be given two eyes with which to see,and a tongue with which to speak, and it will bear witness for thosewho touched it in sincerity.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)turned to face the Stone, then he put his lips on it and wept for along time. Then he turned and saw ‘Umar bin Khattab weeping. Hesaid:‘O ‘Umar, this is the place where tears should be shed.’”
