1ـ حُمَيْدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ سَمَاعَةَ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ أَلاَّ يَخْرُجَ الإِمَامُ مِنْ مِنًى إِلَى عَرَفَةَ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ.

1. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from ibn Sama‘ah from those whom he has mentioned from Aban from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘It is of the Sunnah that the Imam must not leave Mina’ for ‘Arafah, until it is sunrise.’”

2ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عِمْرَانَ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ الطَّائِيِّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) إِنَّا مُشَاةٌ فَكَيْفَ نَصْنَعُ قَالَ أَمَّا أَصْحَابُ الرِّحَالِ فَكَانُوا يُصَلُّونَ الْغَدَاةَ بِمِنًى وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَامْضُوا حَتَّى تُصَلُّوا فِي الطَّرِيقِ.

2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id form al-Nadr ibn Suwayd from Yahya ibn “Imran al-Halabiy from ‘ Abd al-Hamid al-Ta’iy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘We walk on foot. What must we do?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Those who have the means of transportation perform the morning Salat (prayer) in Mina’ but you can go on and perform your Salat (prayer) on the way.’”

3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ وَصَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ إِذَا غَدَوْتَ إِلَى عَرَفَةَ فَقُلْ وَأَنْتَ مُتَوَجِّهٌ إِلَيْهَا اللهمَّ إِلَيْكَ صَمَدْتُ وَإِيَّاكَ اعْتَمَدْتُ وَوَجْهَكَ أَرَدْتُ فَأَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُبَارِكَ لِي فِي رِحْلَتِي وَأَنْ تَقْضِيَ لِي حَاجَتِي وَأَنْ تَجْعَلَنِي الْيَوْمَ مِمَّنْ تُبَاهِي بِهِ مَنْ هُوَ أَفْضَلُ مِنِّي ثُمَّ تُلَبِّ وَأَنْتَ غَادٍ إِلَى عَرَفَاتٍ فَإِذَا انْتَهَيْتَ إِلَى عَرَفَاتٍ فَاضْرِبْ خِبَاءَكَ بِنَمِرَةَ وَنَمِرَةُ هِيَ بَطْنُ عُرَنَةَ دُونَ الْمَوْقِفِ وَدُونَ عَرَفَةَ فَإِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ فَاغْتَسِلْ وَصَلِّ الظُّهْرَ وَالْعَصْرَ بِأَذَانٍ وَاحِدٍ وَإِقَامَتَيْنِ وَإِنَّمَا تُعَجِّلُ الْعَصْرَ وَتَجْمَعُ بَيْنَهُمَا لِتُفَرِّغَ نَفْسَكَ لِلدُّعَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ يَوْمُ دُعَاءٍ وَمَسْأَلَةٍ قَالَ وَحَدُّ عَرَفَةَ مِنْ بَطْنِ عُرَنَةَ وَثَوِيَّةَ وَنَمِرَةَ إِلَى ذِي الْمَجَازِ وَخَلْفَ الْجَبَلِ مَوْقِفٌ.

3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Safwan ibn Yahya and Ibn Abi ‘Umayr Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘When in the morning you are ready to move toward ‘Arafat, say this prayer, ‘O Lord, I have turned to You, depend on You and for Your sake I act. I appeal before You to make my journey a blessing, grant my needs and make me today of those about whom You express pride before those who are more virtuous than I am.’ Thereafter say Talbiyah and you are on your way to ‘Arafat. You can pitch up your tent in Namirah when you arrive in ‘Arafat, which is before the station and before ‘Arafat. On the day of ‘Arafah, take Ghusl (bath) when it is Zawal (declining of the sun toward the west at noontime). You can perform al-Zuhr and al-‘Asr Salat (prayer) with one Adhan and two ‘Iqamah. Say al-‘Asr Salat (prayer) earlier, in fact perform them soon one after the other, so you can give yourself enough time for prayer and supplication; it is the day for appealing and pleading (before Allah).’ He (the Imam) said, ‘The boundaries of ‘Arafat are from Batn ‘Urnah, to Thawiyah, and Namirah to Dhil Majaz. Behind the hill is the station.’”

4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘The Ghusl (bath) on the day of ‘Arafah, is at Zawal (declining of the sun toward the west at noontime) and you must perform al-Zuhr and al-‘Asr Salat (prayer) together with one Adhan and two ‘Iqamah.’”

5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ الْبَخْتَرِيِّ وَهِشَامِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَنَّهُ قِيلَ لَهُ أَيُّمَا أَفْضَلُ الْحَرَمُ أَوْ عَرَفَةُ فَقَالَ الْحَرَمُ فَقِيلَ وَكَيْفَ لَمْ تَكُنْ عَرَفَاتٌ فِي الْحَرَمِ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا جَعَلَهَا الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.

5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hafs ibn al-Bakhtariy and Hisham ibn al-Hakam who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), was asked, ‘Is ‘Arafat, more important or al-Haram (the sacred area)?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Al-Haram (the sacred area) is more important.’ It was asked, ‘Why is ‘Arafat not in al-Haram (the sacred area)?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘This is how Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has made it.’”

6ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ حَدُّ عَرَفَاتٍ مِنَ الْمَأْزِمَيْنِ إِلَى أَقْصَى الْمَوْقِفِ.

6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il from Ali ibn al-Nu’man from ibn Muskan from abu Basir who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘The boundary of ‘Arafat is from al-Mazemin to the end of the station.’”
