3928. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهم: During the last Hajj led by 'Umar, 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Aūf returned to his family at Mina and met me there. 'Abdur-Raḥmān said (to 'Umar), "O chief of the believers! The season of Hajj is the season when there comes the scum of the people (besides the good amongst them), so I recommend that you should wait till you go back to Al-Madīna, for it is the place of Al-Hijrah (emigration) and of As-Sunna (i.e., the Prophet's legal way), and there you will be able to refer the matter(1) to the religious scholars and the nobles and the people of wise opinions." 'Umar said, "I will speak of it in Al-Madīna on my very first Khutba (religious talk) I will deliver there."
