authority of Naafi` Ibn Jubair Ibn Mut`im, that his father Jubair رضي ‏ُاهلل ‏ُعنه said: “I had<br />

seen the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ‏,ﷺ and he was upon the Deen (religion) of his people<br />

(Ibraaheem and Ismaa`eel ‏.(عليهم ‏ُالسالم 45 He used to stay on his camel in `Arafah along<br />

with the people till he would march out with them (to Muzdalifah after the sunset). This<br />

was the guidance and help from <strong>Al</strong>laah عزُوجل to him.” 46<br />

<strong>Al</strong>-Baihaqee said: The phrase, “the religion of his people” means: “Whatever was<br />

remaining from the legacy of Ibraaheem and Ismaa`eel ‏ُالسالم ‏.عليهم He ﷺ never ever<br />

committed Shirk (associating partners with <strong>Al</strong>laah in worship). May the peace and<br />

blessings of <strong>Al</strong>laah continuously be upon him!”<br />

I (Ibn Katheer) say: And from this statement of his (i.e. of Jubair) it is understood that<br />

he ﷺ used to stay in `Arafah even before he received the Revelation. This is indeed<br />

guidance and success from <strong>Al</strong>laah to him.<br />

Imaam Aḥmad and al-Ṭabaraanee reported from the route of Muḥammad Ibn Is-ḥaaq<br />

and the wording (of Jubair) is: “I had seen the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ‏,ﷺ and this was<br />

before the Revelation was sent to him; he would stay on his camel along with the<br />

people in `Arafah (till they would march), and he would march with them. And this was<br />

the guidance and help from <strong>Al</strong>laah.” 47<br />

And it has a supporting chain from the Ḥadeeth of Rabee`ah Ibn `Abbaad, reported by<br />

al-Ṭabaraanee (4592).<br />

45 (Shaikh al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee said): This is how it is mentioned here with the wording: “The Deen of his people”, but in<br />

“al-<strong>Seerah</strong>” of Ibn Hishaam the wording is: “before the Revelation was sent to him”, and this is in accordance to<br />

the narration reported by Imaam Aḥmad in his Musnad which will be mentioned next.<br />

46 <strong>Al</strong>-Ṭabaraanee in “al-Kabeer” (1577)<br />

47 Musnad Aḥmad (16757), and al-Ḥaakim in al-Mustadrak (1772) and said it is “Ṣaḥeeḥ” as per the condition of<br />

Imaam Muslim.<br />

(Shaikh al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee said): <strong>Al</strong>-Ḥaakim reported a more detailed narration that Jubair Ibn Mut`im رضي ‏ُاهلل ‏ُعنه said:<br />

“The Quraish used to depart from al-Muzdalifah. They used to say: ‘We are al-Ḥums and we will not leave the<br />

sanctuary.’ They had abandoned the staying in `Arafah (on the day of `Arafah).” He (Jubair) said: “I saw the<br />

Prophet ﷺ in the Jaahiliyyah (the period prior to Islaam) and he was staying with the people in `Arafah on his<br />

camel. Then he went with his people to al-Muzdalifah and stayed there. He then departed from there when they<br />

departed.” [Mustadrak al-Ḥaakim (1704)] and he said it is “Ṣaḥeeḥ” as per the condition of Imaam Muslim and al-<br />

Dhahabee agreed with him, and it has supporting chain in “al-Majma`” (3/251).<br />
