May we also add to the talbiyah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : I mean, this is a problem. I mean, may we also add?

Answer : To the talbiyah. If we say there is leeway and that since the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) approved the general type of addition, a person may add whatever he wishes, provided that it does not contradict a text, such as shirk (associating partners with Allah) or the like. And if we say that we should not add to what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions approved, that is better and more preferable. And without a doubt, the most preferable is to restrict oneself to the talbiyah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). However, Imam Ahmad narrated with a sound chain that he used to say, "To the House of the God of Truth," meaning the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So if one adds this word occasionally, it is good.
