The Last Khutbah of the Prophet s.a.w. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Salam, Look in Sahih of Imam Muslim ibn Hajjah: Hadith of Jabir ibn Abdullah *pasted from the CRCC website here for you and made the part you are interested in bold* Book 007, Number 2803: Ja'far b Muhammad reported on the authority of his father:
We went to Jabir b. Abdullah and he began inquiring about the people (who had
gone to see him) till it was my turn. I said: I am Muhammad b. 'Ali b. Husain.
He placed his hand upon my head and opened my upper button and then the lower
one and then placed his palm on my chest (in order to bless me), and I was,
during those days, a young boy, and he said: You are welcome, my nephew. Ask
whatever you want to ask. And I asked him but as he was blind (he could not
respond to me immediately), and the time for prayer came. He stood up covering
himself in his mantle. And whenever he placed its ends upon his shoulders they
slipped down on account of being short (in size). Another mantle was, however,
lying on the clothes rack near by. And he led us in the prayer. I said to him:
Tell me about the Hajj of Allah's Messenger (May peace be upon him). And he
pointed with his hand nine, and then stated: The Messenger of Allah (may peace
be upon him) stayed in ( And the people also pronounced this Talbiya which they
pronounce (today). The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) did not
reject anything out of it. But the Messenger of Allah (May peace. be upon him)
adhered to his own Talbiya. Jabir (Allah be pleased with him) said: We did not
have any other intention but that of Hajj only, being unaware of the Umra (at
that season), but when we came with him to the House, he touched the pillar and
(made seven circuits) running three of them and walking four. And then going to
the Station of Ibrahim, he recited:" And adopt the Station of Ibrahim as a
place of prayer." And this Station was between him and the House. My
father said (and I do not know whether he had made a mention of it but that was
from Allah's Apostle [May peace be upon him] that he recited in two
rak'ahs:" say: He is Allah One," and say:" Say: 0 unbelievers."
He then returned to the pillar (Hajar Aswad) and kissed it. He then went out of
the gate to al-Safa' and as he reached near it he recited:" Al-Safa' and
al-Marwa are among the signs appointed by Allah," (adding: ) I begin with
what Allah (has commanded me) to begin. He first mounted al-Safa' till he saw
the House, and facing Qibla he declared the Oneness of Allah and glorified Him,
and said:" There is no god but Allah, One, there is no partner with Him.
His is the Sovereignty. to Him praise is due. and He is Powerful over
everything. There is no god but Allah alone, Who fulfilled His promise, helped
His servant and routed the confederates alone." He then made supplication
in the course of that saying such words three times. He then descended and
walked towards al-Marwa, and when his feet came down in the bottom of the
valley, he ran, and when he began to ascend he walked till he reached al-Marwa.
There he did as he had done at al-Safa'. And when it was his last running at
al-Marwa he said: If I had known beforehand what I have come to know
afterwards, I would not have brought sacrificial animals and would have
performed an 'Umra. So, he who among you has not the sacrificial animals with
him should put off Ihram and treat it as an Umra. Suraqa b. Malik b. Ju'sham
got up and said: Messenger of Allah, does it apply to the present year, or does
it apply forever? Thereupon the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him)
intertwined the fingers (of one hand) into another and said twice: The 'Umra
has become incorporated in the Hajj (adding):" No, but for ever and
ever." 'All came from the He said: I have with me sacrificial animals, so do not put
off the Ihram. He (Jabir) said: The total number of those sacrificial animals
brought by 'Ali from the The first claim of ours on blood-revenge which I abolish is that of the son of Rabi'a b. al-Harith, who was nursed among the tribe of Sa'd and killed by Hudhail. And the usury of she pre-Islamic period is abolished, and the first of our usury I abolish is that of 'Abbas b. 'Abd al-Muttalib, for it is all abolished. Fear Allah concerning women! Verily you have taken them on the security of Allah, and intercourse with them has been made lawful unto you by words of Allah. You too have right over them, and that they should not allow anyone to sit on your bed whom you do not like. But if they do that, you can chastise them but not severely. Their rights upon you are that you should provide them with food and clothing in a fitting manner. I have left among you the Book of Allah, and if you hold fast to it, you would never go astray. And you would be asked about me (on the Day of Resurrection), (now tell me) what would you say? They (the audience) said: We will bear witness that you have conveyed (the message), discharged (the ministry of Prophethood) and given wise (sincere) counsel. He (the narrator) said: He (the Holy Prophet) then raised his forefinger towards the sky and pointing it at the people (said):" O Allah, be witness. 0 Allah, be witness," saying it thrice. (Bilal then) pronounced Adhan and later on Iqama and he (the Holy Prophet) led the noon prayer. He (Bilal) then uttered Iqama and he (the Holy Prophet) led the afternoon prayer and he observed no other prayer in between the two. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) then mounted his camel and came to the place of stay, making his she-camel al-Qaswa, turn towards the side where there we are rocks, having the path taken by those who went on foot in front of him, and faced the Qibla. He kept standing there till the sun set, and the yellow light had somewhat gone, and the disc of the sun had disappeared. He made Usama sit behind him, and he pulled the nosestring of Qaswa so forcefully that its head touched the saddle (in order to keep her under perfect control), and he pointed out to the people with his right hand to be moderate (in speed), and whenever he happened to pass over an elevated tract of sand, he slightly loosened it (the nose-string of his camel) till she climbed up and this is how he reached al-Muzdalifa. There he led the evening and 'Isha prayers with one Adhan and two Iqamas and did not glorify (Allah) in between them (i. e. he did not observe supererogatory rak'ahs between Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers). The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) then lay down till dawn and offered the dawn prayer with an Adhan and Iqama when the morning light was clear. He again mounted al-Qaswa, and when he came to al-Mash'ar al-Haram, he faced towards Qibla, supplicated Him, Glorified Him, and pronounced His Uniqueness (La ilaha illa Allah) and Oneness, and kept standing till the daylight was very clear. He then went quickly before the sun rose, and seated behind
him was al-Fadl b. 'Abbas and he was a man having beautiful hair and fair
complexion and handsome face. As the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him)
was moving on, there was also going a group of women (side by side with them).
Al-Fadl began to look at them. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him)
placed his hand on the face of Fadl who then turned his face to the other side,
and began to see, and the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) turned his
hand to the other side and placed it on the face of al-Fadl. He again turned
his face to the other side till he came to the bottom of Muhassir. 1680 He urged
her (al-Qaswa) a little, and, following the middle road, which comes out at the
greatest jamra, he came to the jamra which is near the tree. At this be threw
seven small pebbles, saying Allah-o-Akbar while throwing every one of them in a
manner in which the small pebbles are thrown (with the help of fingers) and
this he did in the bottom of the valley. He then went to the place of
sacrifice, and sacrificed sixty-three (camels) with his own hand. Then he gave
the remaining number to 'All who sacrificed them, and he shared him in his
sacrifice. He then commanded that a piece of flesh from each animal sacrificed
should be put in a pot, and when it was cooked, both of them (the Holy Prophet
and Hadrat 'All) took some meat out of it and drank its soup. The Messenger of
Allah (May peace be upon him) again rode and came to the House, and offered the
Zuhr prayer at Also a quick search revealed this: "Verily your blood and your property are as sacred and inviolable as the sacredness of this day of yours, in this month of yours, in this land of yours. Behold! Everything pertaining to the days of ignorance is under my feet completely abolished. Abolished are also the blood revenges of the days of ignorance. The first claim of ours on blood revenge which I abolish is that of the son of Rabi'ah ibn al Harith. And the usury riba of the pre-Islamic period is abolished, and the first of our usury I abolish is that of 'Abbas ibn 'Abd al Muttalib, for it is all abolished. Fear God concerning women! Verily you have taken them on the security of God, and intercourse with them has been made lawful unto you by words of God. You too have rights over them, and they should not allow anyone to sit on your bed whom you do not like. But if they do that, you can chastise them but not severely. Their rights upon you are that you should provide them with food and clothing in a fitting manner. I have left among you the Book of God, and if you hold fast to it you would never go astray. And you would be asked about me (on the day of resurrection), (now tell me) what would you say? They (the audience) said: "We bear witness that you have conveyed (the message), discharged (the ministry of Prophethood) and given wise (sincere) counsel." He (the narrator) said: "He (the Prophet) then raised his forefinger toward the sky and pointed it at the people (and said): "O God, bear witness, O God, bear witness." [The report is from Sahih Muslim, 4/38-43, from the hadith of Jabir ibn 'Abd Allah. Al Shaykh Muhammad Nasir al Din al Albani made some brief additions to it, from other books of hadith which narrated the hadith of Jabir with some sahih additions (Hijjat alNabi, pp. 71-73). See the report of Jabir in Hadith in Hijjat al-Nabii, 38-41. See part of the khutbah in Sahih al Bukhari, Fath al Bari, 8/108). Ibn Ishaq mentioned the long text of the farewell khutbah without isnad. Imam Ahmad mentioned the long text of the khutbah of the farewell pilgrimage, which was given in the middle of the Ayyam al Tashriq. Its isnad includes 'Ali ibn Zayd ibn Jad'aan, who al Hafiz ibn Hajar, in al Taqrib, said was weak. Al Bannaa said, "Al Bazzar narrated a similar report with the same meaning from Ibn 'Umar with a different isnad." The Imams of hadith narrated parts of it in their books, in different chapters, through sahih isnads; and Allah knows best. (Al Fath al Rabbani, 279-281)] same Hadith with additions from the other books. Inshallah that helps. Salam http://forums.almaghrib.org/showthread.php?p=421597#post421597
