حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنْ جَامِعِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ أَبِي صَخْرَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ لَمَّا أَتَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ جَمْرَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ اسْتَبْطَنَ الْوَادِيَ وَاسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ وَجَعَلَ يَرْمِي الْجَمْرَةَ عَلَى حَاجِبِهِ الأَيْمَنِ ثُمَّ رَمَى بِسَبْعِ حَصَيَاتٍ يُكَبِّرُ مَعَ كُلِّ حَصَاةٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَاللَّهِ الَّذِي لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ مِنْ هَا هُنَا رَمَى الَّذِي أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيْهِ سُورَةُ الْبَقَرَةِ ‏ .‏ حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْمَسْعُودِيِّ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ وَجَابِرٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَخْتَارُونَ أَنْ يَرْمِيَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ بَطْنِ الْوَادِي بِسَبْعِ حَصَيَاتٍ يُكَبِّرُ مَعَ كُلِّ حَصَاةٍ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رَخَّصَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ إِنْ لَمْ يُمْكِنْهُ أَنْ يَرْمِيَ مِنْ بَطْنِ الْوَادِي رَمَى مِنْ حَيْثُ قَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي بَطْنِ الْوَادِي ‏.‏

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Yusuf ibn Isa narrated to us: Waki' narrated to us: al-Mas'udi narrated to us, from Jami' ibn Shaddad Abu Sakhrah, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Yazid, who said: When Abd Allah reached the Jamrah of Aqabah, he went into the valley, faced the qiblah, and positioned the pillar to his right. He then threw seven pebbles, saying Allahu akbar with each one. Then he said, ‘By Allah, there is no god but Him: from this very spot, the one to whom Surat al-Baqarah was revealed threw the pebbles.’

Hannad narrated to us: Waki' narrated to us, from al-Mas'udi, through this chain, with a similar report. There are reports on this topic from al-Fadl ibn Abbas, Ibn Abbas, Ibn Umar, and Jabir. Abu Isa said: The hadith of Ibn Mas'ud is hasan sahih. Scholars act on this and prefer that a man throw seven pebbles from the valley, saying Allahu akbar with each one. Some scholars permitted him, if unable to throw from the valley, to throw from wherever he can, even if he is not in the valley.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • The report specifies seven pebbles and the takbir with each throw; it also permits throwing from another location if reaching the valley is not possible.
