1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,720
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:13,289
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

3
00:00:13,289 --> 00:00:17,690
The Abridged Prophetic Biography (Seerah),

4
00:00:17,690 --> 00:00:22,910
Authored by Sheikh Musa ibn Rashid al-Azimi,

5
00:00:22,910 --> 00:00:25,070
May Allah preserve him.

6
00:00:25,070 --> 00:00:33,750
The Prophet's sermon on the Day of Sacrifice (Yawm al-Nahr).

7
00:00:33,750 --> 00:00:41,420
On this noble day, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) delivered a momentous sermon,

8
00:00:41,420 --> 00:00:44,509
As corroborated by extensively transmitted hadiths.

9
00:00:44,509 --> 00:00:48,509
Among them, Imam al-Bukhari recorded in his *Sahih*

10
00:00:48,509 --> 00:00:52,509
On the authority of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), who said:

11
00:00:52,509 --> 00:00:57,509
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) addressed the people on the Day of Sacrifice,

12
00:00:57,509 --> 00:00:58,509
Saying:

13
00:00:58,509 --> 00:01:00,509
"O people!

14
00:01:00,509 --> 00:01:02,509
What day is this?"

15
00:01:03,509 --> 00:01:04,510
They replied:

16
00:01:04,510 --> 00:01:06,510
"A sacred day."

17
00:01:06,510 --> 00:01:07,510
He asked:

18
00:01:07,510 --> 00:01:09,510
"And what land is this?"

19
00:01:09,510 --> 00:01:10,510
They replied:

20
00:01:10,510 --> 00:01:12,510
"A sacred land."

21
00:01:12,510 --> 00:01:14,510
He asked:

22
00:01:14,510 --> 00:01:16,510
"And what month is this?"

23
00:01:16,510 --> 00:01:17,510
They replied:

24
00:01:17,510 --> 00:01:19,540
"A sacred month."

25
00:01:19,540 --> 00:01:21,540
He said:

26
00:01:21,540 --> 00:01:26,540
"Verily, your blood, your property, and your honor are sacred to you,

27
00:01:26,540 --> 00:01:28,540
Just as this day of yours is sacred,

28
00:01:28,540 --> 00:01:30,540
In this land of yours,

29
00:01:30,540 --> 00:01:32,540
In this month of yours."

30
00:01:32,540 --> 00:01:34,540
And he repeated this several times.

31
00:01:34,540 --> 00:01:37,540
Then he raised his head and said:

32
00:01:37,540 --> 00:01:39,540
"O Allah, have I conveyed [the message]?

33
00:01:39,540 --> 00:01:42,700
O Allah, have I conveyed [the message]?"

34
00:01:42,700 --> 00:01:45,700
Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) said:

35
00:01:45,700 --> 00:01:47,700
"By the One in Whose hand is my soul!

36
00:01:47,700 --> 00:01:50,700
It was indeed his testament to his Ummah:

37
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:53,700
'Let the one who is present convey it to the one who is absent;

38
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:58,900
And do not revert after me to being like disbelievers, striking one another's necks.'"

39
00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:02,900
The two Shaykhs [al-Bukhari and Muslim] recorded in their *Sahih*s, and Imam Ahmad in his *Musnad*,

40
00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:06,900
On the authority of Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

41
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:11,900
The Prophet (peace be upon him) delivered a sermon during his pilgrimage, saying:

42
00:02:11,900 --> 00:02:18,900
"Indeed, time has completed its cycle and returned to its original state as on the day Allah created the heavens and the earth.

43
00:02:18,900 --> 00:02:20,900
The year consists of twelve months,

44
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:23,900
Four of which are sacred:

45
00:02:23,900 --> 00:02:25,900
Three consecutive ones—

46
00:02:25,900 --> 00:02:28,900
Dhu al-Qa'dah, Dhu al-Hijjah, and al-Muharram—

47
00:02:28,900 --> 00:02:30,900
And Rajab of Mudar,

48
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:33,900
Which falls between Jumada and Sha'ban."

49
00:02:33,900 --> 00:02:34,900
Then he asked:

50
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:37,900
"Behold, what day is this?"

51
00:02:37,900 --> 00:02:38,900
We replied:

52
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:41,900
"Allah and His Messenger know best."

53
00:02:41,900 --> 00:02:46,900
He remained silent until we thought he would give it a different name.

54
00:02:46,900 --> 00:02:47,930
He said:

55
00:02:47,930 --> 00:02:49,930
"Is it not the Day of Sacrifice?"

56
00:02:49,930 --> 00:02:51,930
We replied: "Yes, indeed."

57
00:02:51,930 --> 00:02:52,990
Then he asked:

58
00:02:52,990 --> 00:02:53,990
He said:

59
00:02:53,990 --> 00:02:55,990
"What month is this?"

60
00:02:55,990 --> 00:02:56,990
We replied:

61
00:02:56,990 --> 00:02:59,990
"Allah and His Messenger know best."

62
00:02:59,990 --> 00:03:05,090
He remained silent until we thought he would give it a different name.

63
00:03:05,090 --> 00:03:06,090
He said:

64
00:03:06,090 --> 00:03:08,090
"Is it not Dhu al-Hijjah?"

65
00:03:08,090 --> 00:03:10,150
We replied: "Yes, indeed."

66
00:03:10,150 --> 00:03:12,150
Then he asked:

67
00:03:12,150 --> 00:03:14,150
"What land is this?"

68
00:03:14,150 --> 00:03:15,150
We replied:

69
00:03:15,150 --> 00:03:18,150
"Allah and His Messenger know best."

70
00:03:18,150 --> 00:03:23,219
He remained silent until we thought he would give it a different name.

71
00:03:23,219 --> 00:03:24,219
He said:

72
00:03:24,219 --> 00:03:26,219
"Is it not the Sacred City [Mecca]?"

73
00:03:26,219 --> 00:03:28,310
We replied: "Yes, indeed."

74
00:03:28,310 --> 00:03:29,310
He said:

75
00:03:29,310 --> 00:03:32,310
"Verily, your blood and your property—

76
00:03:32,310 --> 00:03:33,310
[The sub-narrator] said:

77
00:03:33,310 --> 00:03:35,310
And I believe he also said:

78
00:03:35,310 --> 00:03:38,310
And your honor—are sacred to you,

79
00:03:38,310 --> 00:03:44,310
Just as this day of yours is sacred, in this month of yours, in this land of yours.

80
00:03:44,310 --> 00:03:48,310
You shall surely meet your Lord, and He will question you concerning your deeds.

81
00:03:48,310 --> 00:03:54,310
Beware! Do not revert after me to astray ways, striking one another's necks!

82
00:03:54,310 --> 00:03:56,310
Behold, have I conveyed [the message]?

83
00:03:56,310 --> 00:03:59,310
Let the one who is present among you convey it to the one who is absent,

84
00:03:59,310 --> 00:04:08,030
For perhaps the one to whom it is conveyed will understand it better than some who heard it directly."

85
00:04:08,030 --> 00:04:13,030
The Prophet (peace be upon him) shaving his noble head.

86
00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:20,420
When the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) finished slaughtering his sacrificial animal and delivering his sermon on the Day of Sacrifice,

87
00:04:20,420 --> 00:04:22,420
He called for the barber,

88
00:04:22,420 --> 00:04:24,420
Who then shaved his noble head.

89
00:04:24,420 --> 00:04:29,420
The one who shaved his head was Ma'mar ibn Abdillah al-Adawi (may Allah be pleased with him).

90
00:04:29,420 --> 00:04:31,540
Imam al-Nawawi said:

91
00:04:31,540 --> 00:04:39,540
"Scholars differed regarding the name of the man who shaved the head of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) during the Farewell Pilgrimage,

92
00:04:39,540 --> 00:04:41,670
But the correct and well-known view

93
00:04:41,670 --> 00:04:46,800
Is that he was Ma'mar ibn Abdillah al-Adawi (may Allah be pleased with him)."

94
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,800
Imam Muslim recorded in his *Sahih*

95
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,800
On the authority of Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

96
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,800
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) came to Mina,

97
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,800
Went to the Jamrah, and stoned it.

98
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,800
Then he went to his camp in Mina and sacrificed his offering.

99
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,800
He then said to the barber: "Take,"

100
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,800
Indicating the right side of his head,

101
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,800
And then the left.

102
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,800
Then he began distributing [the hair] among the people.

103
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,800
Imam al-Bukhari recorded in his *Sahih*

104
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,800
On the authority of Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

105
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,800
When the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) shaved his head,

106
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,800
Abu Talhah was the first to take some of his hair.

107
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,860
Imam Muslim recorded in his *Sahih*

108
00:05:32,860 --> 00:05:36,860
On the authority of Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

109
00:05:36,860 --> 00:05:42,860
"I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) while the barber was shaving his head,

110
00:05:42,860 --> 00:05:44,860
And his Companions encircled him,

111
00:05:44,860 --> 00:05:49,899
Wanting no single hair to fall except into the hands of a man."

112
00:05:49,899 --> 00:05:53,899
Imam Ahmad recorded in his *Musnad* with an authentic chain of narration

113
00:05:53,899 --> 00:05:56,899
On the authority of Muhammad ibn Abdillah ibn Zayd,

114
00:05:56,899 --> 00:06:02,899
From his father, that he was present with the Prophet (peace be upon him) at the slaughtering place,

115
00:06:02,899 --> 00:06:05,899
Along with a man from the Ansar.

116
00:06:05,899 --> 00:06:09,899
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) distributed sacrificial meat,

117
00:06:09,899 --> 00:06:12,899
But neither he nor his companion received any of it.

118
00:06:12,899 --> 00:06:14,899
So [the Prophet] shaved his head into his garment,

119
00:06:14,899 --> 00:06:16,899
And gave him some of it,

120
00:06:16,899 --> 00:06:18,899
Distributing the rest among other men,

121
00:06:18,899 --> 00:06:20,899
And clipped his fingernails,

122
00:06:20,899 --> 00:06:22,899
Giving them to his companion.

123
00:06:22,899 --> 00:06:27,180
Imam Ahmad recorded in his *Musnad* with a good chain of narration

124
00:06:27,180 --> 00:06:31,180
On the authority of Jabir ibn Abdillah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), who said:

125
00:06:31,180 --> 00:06:35,180
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) offered his sacrifice,

126
00:06:35,180 --> 00:06:38,180
Then shaved his head and sat down to meet the people.

127
00:06:38,180 --> 00:06:41,279
Whenever he was asked about anything [performed out of sequence], he would say:

128
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,279
"There is no harm, there is no harm."

129
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,279
A man came to him and said:

130
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,279
"I shaved before slaughtering."

131
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,279
He said: "There is no harm."

132
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,279
Then another came and said:

133
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,279
"O Messenger of Allah, I shaved before stoning [the Jamrah]."

134
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,279
He said: "There is no harm."

135
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,279
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:

136
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,279
"All of Arafah is a standing place;

137
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,279
All of Muzdalifah is a standing place;

138
00:07:10,279 --> 00:07:12,279
All of Mina is a place of slaughter;

139
00:07:12,279 --> 00:07:16,279
And all the mountain passes of Mecca are pathways and places of slaughter."

140
00:07:16,279 --> 00:07:25,939
The Prophet (peace be upon him) putting on his normal clothes and applying perfume.

141
00:07:25,939 --> 00:07:31,449
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) put on his everyday garments

142
00:07:31,449 --> 00:07:36,449
And applied perfume after stoning Jamrat al-Aqabah and slaughtering his sacrificial animal,

143
00:07:36,449 --> 00:07:40,449
And prior to performing the Ifadah circumambulation (Tawaf al-Ifadah) around the House.

144
00:07:40,449 --> 00:07:44,610
The two Shaykhs [al-Bukhari and Muslim] recorded in their *Sahih*s, as well as al-Tirmidhi—

145
00:07:44,610 --> 00:07:46,610
And the wording is al-Tirmidhi's—

146
00:07:46,610 --> 00:07:49,610
On the authority of A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), who said:

147
00:07:49,610 --> 00:07:54,610
"I perfumed the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) before he entered ihram,

148
00:07:54,610 --> 00:07:57,610
And on the Day of Sacrifice before he circumambulated the House,

149
00:07:57,610 --> 00:08:00,610
Using perfume containing musk."

150
00:08:00,610 --> 00:08:03,930
Imam al-Tirmidhi stated in his *Jami'*:

151
00:08:03,930 --> 00:08:11,930
"The practice is in accordance with this among the majority of scholars from among the Companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and others.

152
00:08:11,930 --> 00:08:16,930
They hold that when the pilgrim in ihram stones Jamrat al-Aqabah on the Day of Sacrifice, slaughters,

153
00:08:16,930 --> 00:08:18,930
And shaves or trims his hair,

154
00:08:18,930 --> 00:08:21,930
Everything that was forbidden to him becomes permissible,

155
00:08:21,930 --> 00:08:23,930
Except for intimacy with women.

156
00:08:23,930 --> 00:08:30,649
This is the view of al-Shafi'i, Ahmad, and Ishaq."

157
00:08:30,649 --> 00:08:38,289
His (peace be upon him) Ifadah circumambulation and his stay in Mina.

158
00:08:38,289 --> 00:08:44,289
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) performed Tawaf al-Ifadah while riding his she-camel.

159
00:08:44,289 --> 00:08:47,480
Imam Muslim recorded in his *Sahih*

160
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,509
On the authority of Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

161
00:08:51,509 --> 00:08:55,509
"Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) mounted his ride

162
00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:57,509
And departed to circumambulate the House,

163
00:08:57,509 --> 00:08:59,509
And he prayed Zuhr in Mecca."

164
00:08:59,509 --> 00:09:03,700
The two Shaykhs recorded in their *Sahih*s

165
00:09:03,700 --> 00:09:06,700
On the authority of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), who said:

166
00:09:06,700 --> 00:09:12,700
"The Prophet (peace be upon him) circumambulated during the Farewell Pilgrimage while mounted on a camel,

167
00:09:12,700 --> 00:09:14,960
Touching the Corner with a hooked staff."

168
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,960
Imam Muslim recorded in his *Sahih*

169
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:22,960
On the authority of Jabir ibn Abdillah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), who said:

170
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,960
"The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) circumambulated

171
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:36,960
During the Farewell Pilgrimage on his mount, touching the Stone with his staff so that the people could see him, observe his elevated stature, and ask him questions, for the people had crowded around him."

172
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:45,179
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) prayed Zuhr in Mecca and returned that same day to Mina.

173
00:09:45,179 --> 00:09:56,179
In another narration, he prayed Zuhr in Mina; Imam Muslim recorded in his *Sahih* on the authority of Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), who said:

174
00:09:56,179 --> 00:10:04,179
"The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) performed the Ifadah on the Day of Sacrifice, then returned and prayed Zuhr in Mina."

175
00:10:04,179 --> 00:10:13,309
Imam al-Nawawi said: "The reconciliation between them is that he (peace be upon him) performed Tawaf al-Ifadah before midday,

176
00:10:13,309 --> 00:10:19,309
Then prayed Zuhr in Mecca at the beginning of its time, and subsequently returned to Mina,

177
00:10:19,309 --> 00:10:29,309
Where he led his Companions in Zuhr again when they asked him to do so; thus, the second Zuhr prayer in Mina was supererogatory for him."

178
00:10:29,309 --> 00:10:39,600
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) used to walk to the Jamarat during the three days of Tashriq after the sun had passed its zenith,

179
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:49,629
Stoning each pillar with seven pebbles; Imam Ahmad recorded in his *Musnad* and Abu Dawud in his *Sunan* with a good chain of narration

180
00:10:49,629 --> 00:10:57,629
On the authority of A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), who said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) returned to Mina

181
00:10:57,629 --> 00:11:06,629
And stayed there during the nights of the days of Tashriq, stoning the Jamrah once the sun had passed its zenith, each pillar with seven pebbles,

182
00:11:07,629 --> 00:11:19,629
Saying *Allahu Akbar* with each pebble; he would stand at the first and second pillars, making a lengthy supplication with humility, and he would stone the third without standing beside it."

183
00:11:19,629 --> 00:11:26,700
Imam Muslim recorded in his *Sahih* and Imam Ahmad in his *Musnad*—and the wording is Ahmad's—

184
00:11:26,700 --> 00:11:36,700
On the authority of Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) stoned the first Jamrah on the Day of Sacrifice in the forenoon,

185
00:11:36,700 --> 00:11:44,820
And on subsequent days, he stoned them after the sun passed its zenith." Imam Ahmad recorded in his *Musnad* with a good chain of narration

186
00:11:44,820 --> 00:11:54,820
On the authority of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father), who said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) stoned the Jamarat when the sun passed its zenith."

187
00:11:54,820 --> 00:12:04,820
Imam al-Bukhari recorded in his *Sahih* on the authority of Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) that he used to stone the nearest Jamrah with seven pebbles,

188
00:12:04,820 --> 00:12:13,820
Saying *Allahu Akbar* after each pebble, then he would advance until he reached level ground,

189
00:12:13,820 --> 00:12:22,860
Standing to face the Qiblah for a long time, supplicating and raising his hands; then he would stone the middle pillar,

190
00:12:22,860 --> 00:12:33,860
Then move toward the left to reach level ground, stand facing the Qiblah for a long time, supplicate, raise his hands, and stand for a long duration;

191
00:12:33,860 --> 00:12:41,860
Then he would stone Jamrat al-Aqabah from the bottom of the valley without standing beside it, and then depart,

192
00:12:41,860 --> 00:12:47,860
Saying: "This is how I saw the Prophet (peace be upon him) do it."

194
00:12:53,210 --> 00:12:59,210
Though the longing of creation for one another may endure,

195
00:12:59,210 --> 00:13:06,210
The yearning for you knows no bounds.

196
00:13:06,210 --> 00:13:12,779
May Allah send His blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,

197
00:13:12,779 --> 00:13:21,710
And as long as lips move with the praise of the Everlasting.
