Chapter: To give religious verdicts while riding an animal

Authentic hadith of Sahih al-Bukhari Muttafaq ‘alayh (Bukhari and Muslim) Sahih al-Bukhari 1736

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم

وَقَفَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ، فَجَعَلُوا يَسْأَلُونَهُ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ لَمْ أَشْعُرْ فَحَلَقْتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَذْبَحَ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ اذْبَحْ وَلاَ حَرَجَ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَجَاءَ آخَرُ فَقَالَ لَمْ أَشْعُرْ فَنَحَرْتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَرْمِيَ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ ارْمِ وَلاَ حَرَجَ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَمَا سُئِلَ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنْ شَىْءٍ قُدِّمَ وَلاَ أُخِّرَ إِلاَّ قَالَ افْعَلْ وَلاَ حَرَجَ‏.‏

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Amr:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stopped (for a while near the Jimar at Mina) during his last Hajj and the people started asking him questions. A man said, "Ignorantly I got my head shaved before slaughtering." The Prophet replied, "Slaughter (now) and there is no harm in it." Another man said, "Unknowingly I slaughtered the Hadi before doing the Rami." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do Rami now and there is no harm in it." So, on that day, when the Prophet (ﷺ) was asked about anything (about the ceremonies of Hajj) done before or after (its stated time) his reply was, "Do it (now) and there is no harm."

Reported by Al-Bukhari (No. 1736, 83, 124, 1737, 6665), Muslim (No. 1306a, 1306d, 1306e, 1306f, 1306h), At-Tirmidhi (No. 916), Malik (No. 947), Ahmad (No. 6196, 6201, 6509, 6593, 6663) and Ad-Darimi (No. 1828).

Explanation in Arabic

رافَقَ الصَّحابةُ رَسولَ اللهِ صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ في حَجَّةِ الوَداعِ، فأخَذوا عنه صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ مَناسِكَ الحجِّ بقَولِه وفِعلِه، وحَرَصوا على أنْ يَسْألوه صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ فيما جَهِلوه وأشْكَلَ عليهم حُكْمُه.

وفي هذا الحَديثِ يَروي عبْدُ اللهِ بنُ عمرِو بنِ العاصِ رَضيَ اللهُ عنهما أنَّه حَضَرَ النبيَّ صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ ورآهُ في حَجَّةِ الوَداعِ في العامِ العاشرِ مِن الهِجرةِ، وقدْ قام صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ يَخطُبُ على راحِلتِه -وهي ناقتُه- عندَ الجَمرةِ بمِنًى بعْدَ الزَّوالِ مِن يومِ النَّحرِ، وقام إليه الحُجَّاجُ يَسْألونه ويَستَفْتونه فيما يَحتاجون إلَيه مِن أحكامِ الحَجِّ، فسَأَله بَعضُ الناسِ عن تَقديمِ بَعضِ أعمالِ الحجِّ في هذا اليومِ على بَعضٍ، فمِن ذلك: أنَّ رجُلًا غَفَلَ ونَسِيَ، فخالَفَ التَّرتيبَ بيْن المَناسِكِ، فقدَّمَ الحلْقَ على الذَّبحَ، ومنها أيضًا: أنَّ رجُلًا نَحَرَ قَبْلَ أنْ يَرْمِيَ جَمْرةَ العَقبةَ، فأجابَهما النبيُّ صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ بقولِه: «افْعَلْ ولا حَرَج»، أي: لا إثْمَ ولا دَمَ عَليك، فما سُئِلَ عن شَيءٍ قُدِّمَ وحقُّه التَّأخيرُ، ولا عن شَيءٍ أُخِّرَ، وحقُّه التَّقديمُ مِن مَناسكِ هذا اليومِ؛ إلَّا قال صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ للسائلِ: افْعَلِ الآنَ ما بقِيَ، وقدْ أجْزَأَك ما فعَلْتَ، ولا حَرَجَ عليك في التَّقديمِ والتَّأخيرِ.

وفي الحديثِ: سُؤالُ العالِم وإن كانَ مُشتغِلًا، راكبًا وماشيًا وواقفًا، وعلَى كلِّ أحوالِه.

وفيه: بَيانُ تَيسيرِ الشَّرعِ في تَرتيبِ أعمالِ الحجِّ يومَ النَّحرِ.

وفيه: أنَّه يَنْبغي للمُسلِمِ أنْ يَتعلَّمَ أحكامَ دِينِه بسُؤالِ أهْلِ العلمِ، ولا يَعمَلَ عمَلًا إلَّا وهو على بَصيرةٍ مِن حُكمِه.
