أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا الْمُلاَئِيُّ، - يَعْنِي أَبَا نُعَيْمٍ الْفَضْلَ بْنَ دُكَيْنٍ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ، قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَنَسٍ وَنَحْنُ غَادِيَانِ مِنْ مِنًى إِلَى عَرَفَاتٍ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَصْنَعُونَ فِي التَّلْبِيَةِ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ قَالَ كَانَ الْمُلَبِّي يُلَبِّي فَلاَ يُنْكَرُ عَلَيْهِ وَيُكَبِّرُ الْمُكَبِّرُ فَلاَ يُنْكَرُ عَلَيْهِ .
Muhammad bin Abi Bakr Ath-Thaqafi Narrated from:
When we were leaving Mina for Arafat, I said to Anas: 'What did you do for the Talbiyah with the Messenger of Allah on this day?' He said 'Those who recited the Talbiyah did so, and no one criticized them, and those who recited the Takbir did so, and no one criticized them.'

Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 3000
This hadith gives a clear answer about Talbiyah and Takbir while leaving Mina for Arafat. Muhammad bin Abi Bakr Ath-Thaqafi asked Anas what they used to do regarding Talbiyah with the Messenger of Allah on that day. Anas answered that those who recited the Talbiyah did so, and no one criticized them. Those who recited the Takbir did so, and no one criticized them. The core topic is tolerance within the wording reported for that Hajj movement. The narration is useful because it adds the phrase that no one objected to either group. It stays focused on that specific day and the journey from Mina to Arafat.
What we learn from this hadith
- Some people recited Talbiyah while going from Mina to Arafat.
- Some people recited Takbir during the same journey.
- Anas said no one criticized either group for what they recited.
- The narration answers a direct question about practice on that day.
