The questioner : His EminenceThe Shaykh : The hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) Does this include Hajj and 'Umrah, or only Hajj?
The Shaykh : By Allah, I do not know; I do not know about this hadith.
The questioner : The Shaykh mentioned this in *al-Silsilah al-Sahihah*.
The Shaykh : I do not know.
The questioner : It is from the hadith of Abu Sa'id.
The Shaykh : By Allah, I do not know about its authenticity.
The questioner : If it is established, O Shaykh, as authentic.
The Shaykh : It cannot be established. If the meaning is Hajj and 'Umrah, it is never established, because it is authentically reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) that when he mentioned Hajj, al-Aqra' ibn Habis said to him:Bulugh al-Maram 720 And if this hadith were authentic, then what is in excess of it would be voluntary, and there is an obligation in it. So I think this hadith is not authentic. Yes, the left one, how? Do you have something? You are fine, take it, it is your turn, here.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : In Unayzah, yes.

Are we to perform Hajj every year?” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Had I said ‘yes’, it would have become a (yearly) obligation. Hajj is obligatory only once in one’s lifetime. Whatever one does over and above this is supererogatory (a voluntary act) for him.
