The benefits of the hadith regarding 'Umar's takbir on the day of 'Id.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : All these reports indicate the eagerness of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) to act upon the Sunnah and to display and publicize it.
'Umar would recite the takbir in his tent in Mina, and the people of the mosque would hear it—which mosque? The Mosque of al-Khaif—so they would recite the takbir, and then the people of the markets would recite it until Mina would tremble with the takbir. How beautiful that state was! No cars, no ..., and no things that cause disturbance; there was nothing but the takbir to Allah, the Great, the Exalted.
They would remind one another of it. 'Umar would recite the takbir in his tent, the people of the mosque would hear him and recite the takbir, the people of the markets would hear them and recite the takbir, until those mountains would resound with the voices of the takbir.
Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) would recite the takbir in Mina on those days, and he would do this frequently. He would recite the takbir after the prayers, on his bed, in his tent, in his sitting place, and in his walking place on all of those days. This indicates that the righteous Salaf preserved their time, and that they did not let any of their time go to waste without occupying it with the remembrance of Allah. This is in accordance with the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Ali 'Imran 3:191] and His saying: Maimunah used to recite the takbir on the Day of Sacrifice, and the women used to recite the takbir behind 'Aban ibn 'Uthman and 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz on the days of Tashriq, along with the men in the mosque. However, this general statement must be qualified by the fact that they did not raise their voices, because raising a woman's voice in gatherings is not desirable. For this reason, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan Abi Dawud 941Sahih (Al-Albani) Even though reminding them here is obligatory, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not want the woman to speak, not even with tasbih. Yes.
