حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ الْبَيْدَاءُ الَّتِي يَكْذِبُونَ فِيهَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَاللَّهِ مَا أَهَلَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلاَّ مِنْ عِنْدِ الْمَسْجِدِ مِنْ عِنْدِ الشَّجَرَةِ . قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
Ibn Umar narrated: "Al-Baida The One They Lie About Regarding The Messenger Of Allah. By Allah! The Messenger Of Allah Did Not Start The Talbiyah Except From Near The Masjid, Near The Tree."
[2] They use the word 'lie' for any information that is not correct, whether intentionally or not, and Al-Baidā' is a location before the Masjid .Reference : Jami` at-Tirmidhi 818In-book reference : Book 9, Hadith 11English translation : Vol. 2, Book 4, Hadith 818
Summary of Jami at-Tirmidhi Hadith 818
This Hadith about starting Talbiyah near the Masjid presents Ibn Umar’s correction of a report about al-Baida. He said that al-Baida was the place where people were saying something false regarding the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم. He then swore by Allah that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم did not begin the Talbiyah except from near the Masjid, near the tree. The focus of the Hadith is precision in reporting the Prophet’s صلى الله عليه وسلم practice. It also shows how serious Ibn Umar was about correcting what he believed to be an incorrect claim. The narration is not a full guide to Hajj. It is a specific statement about where the Talbiyah began according to Ibn Umar’s report.
What we learn from this hadith
- Reports about the Prophet’s صلى الله عليه وسلم actions should be stated carefully.
- Ibn Umar strongly corrected what he saw as an inaccurate claim.
- The narration places the start of Talbiyah near the Masjid, near the tree.
