English translation

1855. Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما: Al-Faḍl was riding behind the Prophet ﷺ and a woman from the tribe of Khath'am came up. Al-Faḍl started looking at her and she looked at him. The Prophet ﷺ turned Al-Faḍl's face to the other side. She said, "My father has come under Allāh's obligation of performing Hajj but he is a very old man and cannot sit properly on his Rahilā (mount). Shall I perform Hajj on his behalf? The Prophet ﷺ replied in the affirmative. That happened during Hajjat-ul-Waḍā' of the Prophet ﷺ.

1855 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: كَانَ الفَضْلُ رَدِيفَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ خَثْعَمَ، فَجَعَلَ الفَضْلُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا وَتَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ، فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْرِفُ وَجْهَ الفَضْلِ إِلَى الشِّقِّ الآخَرِ، فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّ فَرِيضَةَ اللَّهِ أَدْرَكَتْ أَبِي شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا لاَ يَثْبُتُ عَلَى الرَّاحِلَةِ، أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» وَذَلِكَ فِي حَجَّةِ الوَدَاعِ
