أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ أَفَاضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنْ عَرَفَاتٍ وَرِدْفُهُ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ فَجَالَتْ بِهِ النَّاقَةُ وَهُوَ رَافِعٌ يَدَيْهِ لاَ تُجَاوِزَانِ رَأْسَهُ فَمَا زَالَ يَسِيرُ عَلَى هِينَتِهِ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى جَمْعٍ .

Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 3017
This Hadith describes the Prophet leaving Arafat. Al-Fadl bin Abbas narrated that the Messenger of Allah departed from Arafat while Usamah bin Zaid rode behind him. His camel bolted, and he was raising his hands to rein it in, but not above his head. He continued in that way until he reached Jam, meaning Al-Muzdalifah. The core topic is calm departure from Arafat. The narration shows movement, control, and steadiness during the Hajj journey from Arafat to Muzdalifah. It does not include spoken instruction in this report, so the explanation should not add extra speech. The scene itself teaches controlled behavior during a crowded sacred movement.
What we learn from this hadith
- The Prophet departed from Arafat toward Jam, Al-Muzdalifah.
- He controlled his camel without raising his hands above his head.
- The movement from Arafat is shown with calm control.
