The reciter: And 'Umar ibn Hafs ibn Ghiyath narrated to us, saying: My father narrated to us, saying: Ja'far ibn Muhammad narrated to us, saying: My father narrated to me, saying:
I came to Jabir b. Abdullah and asked him about the (Farewell) Pilgrimage of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ).
أتيت جابر بن عبد الله ، فسألته عن حجّة رسول الله صلّى الله عليه وسلّم He related the hadith in a manner similar to the hadith of Hatim ibn Isma'il, and added to the hadith:
There was one Abu Sayyara among the Arabs, (of pre-Islamic period) who carried (people from Muzdalifa to Mini). As the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) set out from Muzdalifa to al-Mash'ar al-Haram, the Quraish were certain that he would halt there and that would be his station. But he passed on (without staying) there. and paid no heed to it till he came to 'Arafat and there he stayed.
وكانت العرب يدفع بهم أبو سيّارة على حمارٍ عريٍ ، فلمّا أجاز رسول الله صلّى الله عليه وسلّم من المزدلفة بالمشعر الحرام ، لم تشكّ قريش أنّه سيقتصر عليه ، ويكون منزله ، ثمّ ، فأجاز ولم يعرض له ، حتّى أتى عرفاتٍ فنزل .
