What is meant by the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "Do it, and there is no harm"?

Question:
He says: The phrase "Do it, and there is no harm"—what is meant by it? And when was it said? May you be rewarded.

Answer:
"Do it, and there is no harm." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said this to the one who asked him on the day of 'Id about advancing or delaying the four rites performed on the day of 'Id. These are: stoning the Jamrah al-Aqabah, slaughtering the hady, shaving the head, and tawaf and sa'y. The fact that he arranged them in this manner—stoning first, then slaughtering if he had a hady, then shaving his head or shortening his hair, then performing tawaf al-ifadah around the House, and sa'y after that—is the order in which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) acted. If he had advanced and shaved his head before stoning, or performed tawaf before shaving or before stoning, there is no harm in that. This is what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) referred to when he said, "Do it, and there is no harm," because he was not asked on this day, as in the text of the hadith, about anything he advanced or delayed from these rites on the day of Nahr except that he said, "Do it, and there is no harm." Yes.
