حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ الْكُوفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ حُبَابٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَجَّ ثَلاَثَ حِجَجٍ حَجَّتَيْنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُهَاجِرَ وَحَجَّةً بَعْدَ مَا هَاجَرَ وَمَعَهَا عُمْرَةٌ فَسَاقَ ثَلاَثًا وَسِتِّينَ بَدَنَةً وَجَاءَ عَلِيٌّ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ بِبَقِيَّتِهَا فِيهَا جَمَلٌ لأَبِي جَهْلٍ فِي أَنْفِهِ بُرَةٌ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ فَنَحَرَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنْ كُلِّ بَدَنَةٍ بِبَضْعَةٍ فَطُبِخَتْ وَشَرِبَ مِنْ مَرَقِهَا . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ سُفْيَانَ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ زَيْدِ بْنِ حُبَابٍ . وَرَأَيْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فِي كُتُبِهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ . قَالَ وَسَأَلْتُ مُحَمَّدًا عَنْ هَذَا فَلَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الثَّوْرِيِّ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم . وَرَأَيْتُهُ لاَ يَعُدُّ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ مَحْفُوظًا . وَقَالَ إِنَّمَا يُرْوَى عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ مُرْسَلاً .حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ بْنُ هِلاَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ كَمْ حَجَّ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ حَجَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ وَاعْتَمَرَ أَرْبَعَ عُمَرٍ عُمْرَةٌ فِي ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ وَعُمْرَةُ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَعُمْرَةٌ مَعَ حَجَّتِهِ وَعُمْرَةُ الْجِعِرَّانَةِ إِذْ قَسَّمَ غَنِيمَةَ حُنَيْنٍ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ . وَحَبَّانُ بْنُ هِلاَلٍ هُوَ أَبُو حَبِيبٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ هُوَ جَلِيلٌ ثِقَةٌ وَثَّقَهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ .
Jabir bin `Abdullah Narrated from:
The Prophet Performed Hajj Three Times. He Performed Hajj Twice Before His Emigration, And He Performed One Hajj After He Emigrated, And These Were Accompanied By Umrah. So He Drove Sixty-Three Sacrificial Animals (Budn) And Ali Came From Yemen With The Rest Of Them, Among Them Was A Camel Of Abu Jahl That Has A Ring Made Of Silver In Its Nose. So He (The Messenger Of Allah) Slaughtered The, And The Messenger Of Allah Ordered That A Piece Of Each Of Them Be Cooked, And He Drank From Its Broth.Qatadah Narrated: "I Said To Anas Bin Malik: 'How Many Times Did The Prophet Perform Hajj?' He Said: 'He Performed One Hajj And He Performed Four Umrah: An Umrah During Dhul-Qa'Dah; The Umrah Of Al-Hudaibiyah, And Umrah With His Hajj, And An Umrah From Al-Ji'Irranah When He Divided Up The War Spoils Of Hunain.'"

Summary of Jami at-Tirmidhi Hadith 815
This Hadith about the Prophet’s Hajj and Umrah count contains two reports in the supplied text. The first, from Jabir bin Abdullah, states that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم performed Hajj three times: twice before migration and once after migration, with Umrah, and that he drove sixty-three sacrificial animals. It also mentions that Ali came from Yemen with the rest and that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم had pieces cooked from each animal and drank from the broth. The text then records Abu Isa’s comments about that report, including that it is gharib and that it was not considered preserved by Muhammad. The second report, from Anas, says the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم performed one Hajj and four Umrah, and Abu Isa grades it hasan sahih.
What we learn from this hadith
- The text preserves reports about the Prophet’s صلى الله عليه وسلم Hajj and Umrah count.
- Sacrificial animals were part of the pilgrimage details mentioned here.
- The grading notes show that reports in the same entry may differ in strength.
