Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَفَاضَ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ ‏ .‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عُمَرَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَإِنَّمَا كَانَ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَنْتَظِرُونَ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ ثُمَّ يُفِيضُونَ ‏.‏

Qutaybah narrated to us: Abu Khalid al-Ahmar narrated to us, from al-A'mash, from al-Hakam, from Miqsam, from Ibn Abbas, that the Prophet departed from Muzdalifah before sunrise.

There is also a report on this topic from Umar. Abu Isa said: The hadith of Ibn Abbas is hasan sahih. In pre-Islamic times, people used to wait until sunrise before departing.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The report says the Prophet departed Muzdalifah before sunrise, in contrast to the pre-Islamic practice described.
