The reciter: Abdullah ibn Yusuf narrated to us, saying: Malik informed us from Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr al-Thaqafi: Mishkat al-Masabih 2592
The Shaykh : Because all of it is dhikr of the ihram, which is raising the voice with the talbiyah and the takbir. In this is an explicit text that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) did not gather for the collective talbiyah, meaning the group talbiyah; rather, each person recites the talbiyah for himself and remembers Allah for himself. It also contains an indication from al-Bukhari and from the hadith that the talbiyah is only to be done while traveling between the stations, from Makkah to Mina, from Mina to 'Arafah, from 'Arafah to Muzdalifah, and from Muzdalifah to Mina to the stoning of the Jamarat al-Aqabah. This is what the Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) chose, and he said that the talbiyah is not for one who is settled, meaning as long as you are stationary in Mina or 'Arafah, you do not recite the talbiyah; you only recite it when you set out and walk. So the talbiyah requires movement. How can you say "Labbaik Allahumma labbaik" while you are sitting? So the Shaykh al-Islam (may Allah have mercy on him) argues with such hadiths and with the meaning that the talbiyah is only for whom? Ya Abdullah, with your blessing, for whom?
The student: For the one who is traveling. How can he recite the talbiyah while he is sitting?
The Shaykh : What?
Muhammad b. Abu Bakr ath-Thaqafi said that he asked Anas b. Malik when they were going in the morning from Mina to ‘Arafa how they used to conduct themselves on that day along with God’s messenger, and he replied, “Those of us who raised their voices in the talbiya did so without any objection being made, and those of us who cried ‘God is most great’ did so without any objection being made." Bukhari and Muslim.
أنه سأل أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه وهما غاديان من منى إلى عرفة : كيف كنتم تصنعون في هذا اليوم مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ؟ فقال : كان يهل منا المهل فلا ينكر عليه ويكبر منا المكبر فلا ينكر عليهThe Shaykh : Because all of it is dhikr of the ihram, which is raising the voice with the talbiyah and the takbir.
