It was
narrated that ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Humaid Az-Zuhri said: “I asked
Sa’ib bin Yazid: ‘What have you heard about staying in Makkah?’
He
said: ‘I heard ‘Ala’ bin Hadrami say: “The Prophet (ﷺ)
said: ‘Three
(days) for the Muhajir after departing (from Mina).’”* * The meaning of it is: being hished from the rites (of Hajj).

‘Ata’
narrated: “Jabir bin ‘Abdullah, who was among the people with
me,
told me that the Prophet (ﷺ) arrived in Makkah in the morning of
the fourth day of Dhul-Hijjah.”

It was
narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
stayed for nineteen days in which he shortened his prayer to two
Rak’ah. So, whenever we stayed for nineteen days we would shorten
our
prayer to two Rak’ah, but if we stayed more than that we would
pray
four Rak’ah.”

It was
narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
stayed
in Makkah for fifteen nights during the year of the Conquest,
(during
which time) he shortened his prayer.

Yahya
bin Abu Ishaq narrated that Anas said: “We went out with the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) from Al-Madinah to Makkah, during which time
we shortened our prayer to two Rak’ah, until we came back.” I
asked:
“How long did he stay in Makkah?” He said: “Ten (days).”

It was
narrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said: “The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) said: ‘Between a person and Kufr (disbelief) is abandoning
the prayer.’”

‘Abdullah bin Buraidah narrated that his father said: “The
Messenger
of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘The covenant that distinguishes
between us and
them is prayer; so whoever leaves it, he has committed
Kufr.’”

It was
narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “There is
nothing standing between a person and Shirk (polytheism)
except
leaving the prayer, so if he leaves it he has committed Shirk.”

It was
narrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said: “The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) delivered a sermon to us and said: ‘O people! Repent to
Allah
before you die. Hasten to do good deeds before you become
preoccupied
(because of sickness and old age). Uphold the relationship
that
exists between you and your Lord by remembering Him a great deal
and
by giving a great deal of charity in secret and openly. (Then) you
will be granted provision and Divine support, and your condition will
improve. Know that Allah has enjoined Friday upon you in this place
of
mine, on this day, in this month, in this year, until the Day of
Resurrection. Whoever abandons it, whether during my lifetime or
after
I am gone, whether he has a just or an unjust ruler, whether he
takes
it lightly or denies (that it is obligatory), may Allah cause
him to
lose all sense of tranquility and contentment, and may He not
bless
him in his affairs. Indeed, his prayer will not be valid, his
Zakat
will not be valid, his Hajj will not be valid, his fasting will
not be
valid, and his righteous deeds will not be accepted, until he
repents.
Whoever repents, Allah will accept his repentance. No woman
should be
appointed as Imam over a man, no Bedouin should be
appointed as Imam
over a Muhajir, no immoral person should be
appointed as Imam over a
(true) believer, unless that is forced upon
him and he fears his sword
or whip.’”

It was
narrated from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Kaisan that his father said: “I
saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) performing prayer at Bi’r ‘Ulya,
in a garment.”
