Arabic hadith text
عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَابِرٌ، قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلَى الصَّفَا وَقَالَ " نَبْدَأُ بِمَا بَدَأَ اللَّهُ بِهِ " . ثُمَّ قَرَأَ " ( إِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةَ مِنْ شَعَائِرِ اللَّهِ ) ".
Translation
Jaʿfar ibn Muḥammad said: My father told me: Jābir related that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) went out to al-Ṣafā and said, ‘We begin with that with which Allah began.’ Then he recited: ‘Indeed, al-Ṣafā and al-Marwah are among the rites of Allah.’
